Chapter 413: One Tenth
Gu Dongxing then explained Nan Mengyuâs âMedicine Sect rulesâ: âIgnore the first two, but the thirdââ
âAt least one tenth of the estate,â Zhong Zhengwen said, somewhat troubled. âIf you give me a specific number, I can give it to you, but it has to come from him personally, and he hasnât even woken up yet. Itâs difficult for me to agree on his behalf.â
Nan Mengyu smiled, âItâs not one tenth of the estate, but at least one tenth of his personal property, no less, I only collect payment if I cure the disease. As for him not being awakeââ
Nan Mengyu said, âI will wake him up first and let him decide.â
Zhong Zhengwen was overjoyed: âYou can wake him up?â
Nan Mengyu nodded, âOf course I can.â
As she spoke, she transferred Wood Spiritual Energy; this time, the Wood Spiritual Energy entered not through the lungs but directly through the heart, impacting the Spiritual Platform.
Indeed, with just that, Long Zhenghui on the bed opened his eyes. He glanced at his son-in-law and tried calling out, âYing Jie?â
Zhong Zhengwen hurriedly approached, âDad, are you awake? Iâm Ying Jie.â
âWasnât I in the hospital?â Long Zhenghui was puzzled. Thanks to a bit of Spiritual Energy from Nan Mengyu, he was quite spirited now.
âDad, my comrade knows a Divine Doctor. Iâve brought you over for treatment,â Zhong Zhengwen explained.
âDivine Doctor? My illness was caused by a curse. Can it be cured? Whereâs the Divine Doctor?â
Previously, Long Zhenghui had never believed in curses, but this time, he did.
Nan Mengyu sighed inwardly; she was standing right there, but he couldnât see her.
She had no choice but to speak up, âOld Sir, I am your physician right now.â
Long Zhenghui frowned, âAre you joking? You a young girl, are you in middle school or high school?â
Nan Mengyu knew he wouldnât believe her.
Zhong Zhengwen hastily explained, âDad, donât underestimate this young girl. Youâve heard of Ye Qing from the Ye Family, right? The one married off by her stepmother to Sun Erliang?
She suffered from radiation poisoning and was diagnosed with premature aging, expected to not survive more than three to five years, yet she was cured by her.â
âOh?â The old manâs sharp gaze turned towards Nan Mengyu.
But Nan Mengyu fearlessly met his gaze, âOld Sir, donât you find it strange how spirited you are right now?â
Of course, Long Zhenghui found it strange, âWas it you who treated me?â
Nan Mengyu nodded, âI just transferred a bit of Primordial Qi to you. But the treatment hasnât begun yet. According to Medicine Sectâs rule, I must collect at least one tenth of a patientâs property, more is optional. Thatâs why I woke you up, to ask for your consent.
Long Zhenghui waved his hand magnanimously, âThatâs nothing, just one tenth of the property, given. Butââ
âGirl, donât you know, I have no property at all, so if you take one tenth, wonât you be at a loss?â
Nan Mengyu smiled, âThatâs the rule of the Medicine Sect. Treat and save the patient first, collect payment later. More money from the rich, less from the poor, if thereâs no money, then itâs free.â
Long Zhenghui praised her, âGood, then anyone can get treated. But how do you know how much money others give? What if someone has ten thousand but only gives you a hundred?â
Nan Mengyu smiled slightly, âI can find that out myself. Alright, since you agreed, Iâll begin the treatment. But first, I need to prepare.â Saying this, she entered a room and closed the door behind her.
