Chapter 2819: Reason
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
“That is only one of the reasons, there is a second reason.” Feng Jiu said. She looked at him and said: “I want to help your Hong Family, and help you become the City Lord.”
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Hong was shocked: “This… I’m afraid it’s not proper. If our Hong Family is in the top position, several family clans in the city will be the first to object, and in terms of strength, our Hong Family is not the strongest.”
“This is the reason why I am treating your Father.” Feng Jiu said, and glanced at him: “If your Father recovers and his strength advances to a higher level, do you think that with his support, you need to be afraid of the other family clans?”
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Hong hesitated for a while, then he looked at Feng Jiu and asked: “I want to know, why is the Ghost Doctor doing this?” She was only a pa.s.ser-by, so why would she help the Hong Family rise up the ranks and give them such a chance? Others may not know this, but he had heard of the Ghost Doctor’s abilities and knew that she could do it.
“There’s no other reason, other than that firstly, the City Lord has provoked me, and secondly, I pa.s.sed a fis.h.i.+ng village on the way and there were only children and the elderly left, their sons and daughters were captured to work as coolies in the City Lord’s Manor. So I thought I would help.” Her voice paused slightly, then she said: “The most important reason is that the City Lord has no virtue and is not worthy of being the City Lord.”

She hadn’t intended to cause any trouble for the City Lord when she entered the city, but he had brought her back to his Manor and wanted to take advantage of her. Since that was the case, then he couldn’t blame her for making a move.
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Hong knew the reason, and after he thought for a while, he said: “Then please treat my Father, Ghost Doctor!” He folded his hands and saluted her.
Feng Jiu stood up: “Lead the way!”
“Ghost Doctor, this way please.” He led the way personally for her and took her to the back courtyard, then they came to his Father’s courtyard where he pushed the door open and entered the room.
Feng Jiu came to the bedside and looked at the skinny old man, then asked: “How long has this been going on?”
“It’s been more than a month, he hasn’t been able to eat for over a month. We can only feed him liquid food. But my father hasn’t lost his consciousness, he is aware of his surroundings, but he is just unable to wake up and move.” Patriarch Hong said.
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu stepped forward and checked his pulse, then she inspected his body carefully and said: “His vital blood and energy is unable to flow because it is caused by an obstruction. It’s not a big problem, as long as the place where the blood and energy is blocked is dredged.”
As she spoke, she took out her silver needles. And as for Patriarch Hong who was standing at the side, he was overjoyed when he heard this. When he saw her holding the silver needle, he didn’t disturb her, but stood by and watched silently.
Feng Jiu put the silver needles into his acupoints and supplemented them with spirit energy to dredge his blocked blood and energy. This was not a difficult problem for her, but for many doctors, even if they knew what the disease was, they wouldn’t know where to start treatment.
After some time pa.s.sed, she pulled out the silver needles and took out a bottle of Nutrition Liquid and handed it to Patriarch Hong: “Give this to your Father to drink! It is a spirit liquid which can nourish his internal organs and has a repairing function.”
After Patriarch Hong took the bottle, he asked: “Ghost Doctor, when will my Father wake up?”
“Tomorrow morning.” Feng Jiu said.
Patriarch Hong was overjoyed when he heard this and thanked her quickly: “Thank you Ghost Doctor, thank you Ghost Doctor.”
“Alright, I will go first. When he wakes up tomorrow, you can come to the City Lord Manor to look for me!”
When Patriarch Hong heard this, he asked: “The Ghost Doctor is still going to the City Lord Manor?”
