The Rising Phoenix-Chapter 138: The Cause Of Her Illness

Some people entered the room. They were an old man, an old woman and also a young woman. Bai Xifeng could assume the identities of the old man and the old woman since she could see both of their features on Shen Shoushan. However, she was not so sure about the young woman.

"Shoushan, I heard you bring someone to treat Liqiu. How is it? Is he can treat Liqiu?" The old man asked.

"Sir Long is still checking Liqiu’s condition." Shen Shoushan said.

The three of them looked at the young man who looked at Ren Liqiu. They were surprised to see how young Bai Xifeng was. They already made their judgement that this pharmacist was too young. It was impossible to treat Ren Liqiu.

"Brother Shen, I know you are worried by Sister Liqiu but you should not just invite someone that thinks how to scam people." The young woman said to Shen Shoushan.

Shen Shoushan’s parents also thought the same but they did not say it out loud.

Yu Xiaohui and Yu Xiaoqing frowned when they heard the comment.

Shen Shoushan glared at the young woman. "Mo Shuang shut up your mouth!"

Mo Shuang was startled when she heard Shen Shoushan shout at her like that. She hid behind Madam Shen.

"Auntie..." Mo Shuang cried.

"Shoushan, you should not shout like that at your cousin. She is just thinking about you and Liqiu." Mrs Shen said.

"Sir Shen, it seems that your family dislike my presence here." Bai Xifeng said.

She stood up and looked straight at Master Shen, Madam Shen, and Mo Shuang. The three of them moved their eyes to look at somewhere else.

"If my presence is not welcomed here, I can leave right now." Bai Xifeng said.

"No!" Shen Shoushan said.

He did not know why he felt that this young man in front of him could create a miracle. He believed that this young man could cure his wife.

"Sir Long, please stay. I will ask others to leave first." Shen Shoushan said. fгeewebnovёl.com

"Shoushan!" Master Shen looked at Shen Shoushan.

He was a little bit shocked when Shen Shoushan seemed to believe in this young man. He wondered what did this young man do to make his son believe this young man.

"Father, Mother, Shuang, you guys can leave first." Shen Shoushan said.

"Shoushan..." Master Shen wanted to say something.

"Father, please." Shen Shoushan sighed.

Seeing this, Master Shen pulled Madam Shen and got out of the room.

"Mo Shuang, you should leave too." Shen Shoushan reminded Mo Shuang.

Mo Shuang looked at Shen Shoushan, Ren Liqiu and lastly at Bai Xifeng. After that, she got out of the room.

"Sir Long, please continue." Shen Shoushan stated.

Bai Xifeng nodded. She continued checking Ren Liqiu’s body. After checking, she confirmed that there was earlier diagnosis was the truth. There was a parasite who feasted on Ren Liqiu’s body.

If the parasite had not been removed from Ren Liqiu’s body as soon as possible, Bai Xifeng was sure that Ren Liqiu might die.

"Do you want to know about your wife’s condition?" Bai Xifeng asked.

Shen Shoushan was startled. ’He already knows the cause?’ He really wanted to know about that.

"Please tell me, Sir Long." Shen Shoushan bowed his head to Bai Xifeng.

"There is a parasite inside your wife’s body. That parasite has been eating your wife. If that parasite has not been removed from your wife’s body, she will die soon." Bai Xifeng explained.

"What?" Shen Shoushan looked shocked when he heard the reason why his wife was unconscious all this time.

"The parasite probably entered your wife’s body when she fell into the swamp." Bai Xifeng explained.

Shen Shoushan nodded. Bai Xifeng’s explanation made sense. He shivered to his bones when he thought that something was inside his wife’s body and was currently eating his wife.

However, he wondered how on earth Bai Xifeng knew about this matter. All of the pharmacists that he invited could not reach the conclusion like Bai Xifeng.

"Sir, Long, how do you know about that?" Shen Shoushan asked.

Bai Xifeng’s lips twitched. "Well, I encountered something similar when I learned from my master."

Of course, it was not true. She learned about the parasite from the book that had been left inside the Mirror World. Ren Liqiu’s condition was exactly the same as described in the book.

"Then, how to save my wife?" Shen Shoushan asked excitedly.

Since Bai Xifeng knew what the cause was, she might know how to save his wife.

"Hmm... I do." Bai Xifeng nodded.

"Then, please save my wife." Shen Shoushan did not hesitate to kneel down and beg Bai Xifeng to save his wife.

Bai Xifeng smiled. She really respected this kind of man who threw his pride for his loved one.

"Hmm.... I will save her." Bai Xifeng nodded. "However..."

Shen Shoushan looked at Bai Xifeng waiting for Bai Xifeng to continue.

"I don’t want other people inside this room. Only you, me and my people. Well, you want to be here watching my treatment. I also did not want people to be interrupted during the session." Bai Xifeng said.

"Sure, Sir Long. I will make sure about that." Shen Shoushan agreed with the condition.

"We will start the treatment tomorrow." Bai Xifeng stated.

"I understand, Sir Long." Shen Shoushan nodded.

"Before I manage to cure your wife, just keep this matter to yourself first. Don’t tell anyone about that. That includes your family." Bai Xifeng reminded Shen Shoushan.

Shen Shoushan was stunned. "My family as well?"

"Hmm..." Bai Xifeng nodded.

Shen Shoushan wanted to ask why but the word stuck in his throat. When he thought about that, it was better to hide the thing first. He could surprise his family when Ren Liqiu healed later.

Bai Xifeng took her people and left Shen Manor. Once Bai Xifeng left, Shen Shoushan’s parents came over and asked Shen Shoushan about Ren Liqiu’s condition.

"How’s Liqiu?" Master Shen asked.

"Sir Long will come back tomorrow." Shen Shoushan said.

He followed what Bai Xifeng wanted him to do.

"Could he really treat Liqiu?" Madam Shen’s turn to ask.

"Mother, all of the pharmacists that we invited give up after checking Liqiu once. I think Sir Long might know something about Liqiu’s condition." Shen Shoushan said.

"Do you know his identity?" Master Shen asked.

"No. I met him at the herbs store. He was buying herbs in large quantity." Shen Shoushan stated.

"Buying herbs in large quantity?" Master Shen was curious about that.

"To think about it, I have never seen him before. He must be arrived at this town not long ago." Shen Shoushan said.

"Hmm... is he can be trusted?" Madam Shen asked.

"I believe him." Shen Shoushan said.

"I will ask someone to investigate his background." Master Shen did not want his son to be tricked by someone.

It is fine to me. But I hope you will do it without Sir Long knowing about this." Shen Shoushan said.

Shen Shoushan also thought it was necessary to investigate Bai Xifeng. Maybe he would know her more that way.

....

"Young Master, is what you tell that man really the truth?" Yu Xiaohui asked.

"About there is a parasite inside his wife’s body?" Yu Xiaoqing finished her sister’s question.

"Hmm... It is the truth." Bai Xifeng nodded.

"How does that happen?" Yu Xiaoqing shivered when she thought about another thing inside her body eating her body without her knowledge.

"This world is huge. A lot of strange things can happen around us." Bai Xifeng said.

"After this, we need to be more careful when we are travelling." Yu Xiaohui said.

"So, we will be going back to Shen Manor again tomorrow?" Xiao Li asked.

"Hmm... I think I will bring Xiaohui and Xiaoqing only. Xiao Li and Nianzu, you can cultivate." Bai Xifeng said.

"Yes, Master." Xiao Li and Yu Nianzu nodded.

"Let’s walk around until dinner time. After dinner, we will return to the inn." Bai Xifeng stated.

So, they walked around the area. They did not realize that they were entering a red district. They finally realized that when they saw a lot of women who wearing such revealing clothes.

Some of them even called Bai Xifeng and Yu Nianzu. Yu Nianzu could not look up. He walked while looking down.

Bai Xifeng just smiled at the ladies. The clothes that they wore were nothing when they compared to the modern women clothes.
