Chapter 161
The courtyards here are all built in a unified manner, with only slightly different positions and orientations, but the internal structures are similar.
However, this courtyard has a lot of things placed inside. In addition to the exquisite scenery like Suzhou gardens, there are also some Feng Shui items.
For example, Bagua mirrors, scissors, peace stones and other things.
Like the old house of the Hu family, these things have been instructed by Feng Shui masters, and they are carefully placed and interrelated, which is very clever.
Regardless of whether this Feng Shui layout is useful or not, at least it looks very pleasing to the eye.
But at this time, Su Yun's consciousness detected a strange breath.
This breath is quite cold, and it also carries a faint evil, like the breath of hell ghosts.
Su Yun's consciousness rushed towards this strange breath, and soon he discovered the origin of this strange breath.
It was a jade Buddha placed on the bookshelf. The jade Buddha was only the size of a palm, and the Maitreya Buddha was carved, lifelike and laughing.
The materials used for this jade Buddha are obviously very expensive, and the craftsmanship is also from the hands of a master.
However, Su Yun was sure that the strange breath was emitted from the body of this jade Buddha.
This strange breath could not be seen or touched by outsiders, and only people with divine consciousness like Su Yun could see it.
And this strange breath was actually scattered throughout the compound.
Everyone in the compound had inhaled some of it more or less.
Perhaps, Zheng Lao's strange disease was related to this strange breath.
After all, only Zheng Lao lived in this compound on weekdays, and he often absorbed it, and perhaps a lot of strange breath had accumulated in his body.
As for other people, I'm afraid they were also contaminated with some, but they only came once or twice occasionally, so it gradually dissipated.
Of course, all this was just Su Yun's guess. As for the truth, he had to see Zheng Lao first.
Soon, Su Yun followed Hu Runze into the inner hall and saw Zheng Lao lying motionless on the bed.
Zheng Lao was about ninety years old, with white hair and beard, and many age spots.
And although he was not short, he was very thin, like a bamboo pole, and looked distressing.
At this time, Mr. Zheng was unconscious, his eyes were closed, his face was dead, and even his breathing and heartbeat were extremely weak.
It looked like he was dying.
""Hu Runze, why are you here again, old man!"
An unfriendly voice sounded. Next to Mr. Zheng, there was an old doctor, a western doctor who was about 70 or 80 years old.
He should be like Zhou Weisheng, treating the leaders of Kyoto.
But it seemed that he didn't get along well with Hu Runze.
"Old Yu, you can come, why can't I?"
Hu Runze didn't have a good face for the old doctor and directly retorted.
The old doctor surnamed Yu was not a martial artist. It seemed that the dispute between the two was not about martial arts, but about medicine.
""Mr. Yu, Mr. Hu, my father's life is at stake. Please put aside your personal grudges and save my father first!"
The middle-aged man spoke hastily. He obviously knew the grudge between Hu Runze and Dr. Yu, but this time he had no choice but to bring the two together for his father's sake.
"Minister Zheng, please rest assured. I will do my best!"
Hu Runze nodded and stopped bickering with Doctor Yu.
Regardless of the reason for Mr. Zheng, the status of this middle-aged man is not low.
Since Mr. Zheng retired, he has relied on the influence of his father and his own strength to successfully take over the position of Minister of the Medical Department.
Hu Runze and Doctor Yu are also the best doctors he can hire.
"This time, Mr. Zheng still has the same strange disease, and he has been in a coma for five hours. Now even his vital signs are constantly weakening. I am afraid that his time is coming."
Doctor Yu shook his head and did not lie against his will. Instead, he told the middle-aged man his judgment.
If he had a way, he would have used it long ago and would not have waited until now.
He arrived first and had carefully examined Mr. Zheng and even performed first aid, but the results were not satisfactory.
"I also know that my father's strange disease is difficult to cure, and I hope that you two can try your best to rescue him."
The middle-aged man spoke in a deep voice, and he did not hold much hope for this.
Hu Runze did not say much, and quickly got started.
Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, smelling, asking and palpation. Compared with Hu Runze, Su Yun felt that he was just a half-baked doctor, or even not even a half-baked doctor. Hu Runze is not only a national famous doctor, but also a martial arts master.
He tried to inject internal force to maintain the vitality of Mr. Zheng.
He did this before. Although it was only a temporary solution, it could make Mr. Zheng live more comfortably.
But this time he frowned, because he found that his internal force injected into Mr. Zheng's body had no effect, like a drop in the ocean.
This is not that the internal force is useless, but that Mr. Zheng's body has reached the point of exhaustion. At this time, no matter how much internal force he injects, it will be useless.
Hu Runze's face sank all of a sudden. If even the internal force is useless, he really can only be helpless.
"Minister Zheng, I'm sorry, I can't do anything about it!"
After Hu Runze tried several times and failed, he could only shake his head at the middle-aged man.
After hearing Hu Runze's words, the middle-aged man's last hope was shattered.
Although Hu Runze and Dr. Yu were not the top doctors in Longguo, they were also first-class national masters. Even they were helpless. It seemed that his father really couldn't get through this stage.
"Oh, it doesn't matter, maybe this is my father's fate!"
The middle-aged man sighed. In fact, he had already prepared himself mentally. He asked Hu Runze and Doctor Yu to come just for that tiny hope.
But now even the last hope is gone, and he has no choice but to accept the reality.
"Although I don't have a solution, I know someone who might have one."
Hu Runze suddenly spoke, which surprised the middle-aged man and gave him a glimmer of hope.
""Mr. Hu, which famous doctor are you talking about? I'll see if I can invite him."
Even if there was only a glimmer of hope, the middle-aged man was unwilling to give up. Mr. Zheng was not only his biological father, but also had many connections that could help him.
As long as his father was alive, he could rely on these connections. Once his father really died, the pressure of the entire Zheng family would fall on his shoulders.
"That gentleman is right here, but whether you can ask him to help is up to you."
Hu Runze spoke again, which surprised the middle-aged man. Right here?
At this time, in the compound, besides his family, there were only Mr. Hu and Doctor Yu. He couldn't be talking about Doctor Yu, so who else could it be?
In the middle-aged man's puzzled eyes, Hu Runze walked in front of Su Yun and bowed respectfully.
"Mr. Su, Hu is incompetent, so I have to ask you to help me!"
