Alchemist Sword Sect

Chapter 4589 Provocation

Smile, turn around and run away! Lu Chen finished all this with the child's smile. He left the ward, not to announce that the child would pass away like this. But to bring this child back from the brink of death.

Lu Chen rushed straight into the Chinese medicine pharmacy like crazy. Obviously, compared to Western medicine, Lu Chen knew more about Chinese medicine. After all, the elixirs he practiced were all extracted from traditional Chinese medicine.

The problem is that there is no shortage of all the medicinal materials in this traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy, only the important medicine thyme is missing. Lu Chen didn't think much about it. If it was less, it would be less, although there was no medicinal ingredient like thyme. But this medicine will probably keep the child through this damn night. Coupled with his own inner breath, he may be able to save the child's life.

The pharmacist on the side was on duty, watching Lu Chen frantically searching the medicine box with his mouth open. It seemed that Lu Chen could identify the medicine just by its scent. Because at this time, the lights in the entire pharmacy have been turned off.

Regardless of whether there was anyone around him, Lu Chen found the alchemy pharmacy, found the medicine furnace, and quickly made it. In order to speed up the alchemy process, Lu Chen fanned the fire while constantly paying attention to his own energy in the flames and the medicine furnace.

Naturally, this energy cannot be seen in the eyes of outsiders, but the flames are obviously much higher than usual. It actually wraps the entire medicine furnace in the middle. However, the medicine used for refining is just ordinary gas, so even if the flame is turned on to the maximum, it will not be like this. Moreover, the aroma of the medicine in this medicine furnace is even more intense, wrapping up the entire alchemy room.

There was a click, and the medicine stove originally made of ceramics finally couldn't withstand the test of the fire and cracked. Lu Chen stretched out his hand directly into the fire and held a dark pill in the palm of his hand. Under the flames, he was sweating profusely and his face became pale. It was obviously due to excessive consumption that his physical strength was somewhat exhausted.

After walking out of the alchemy, Chase Lu felt dizzy and almost stumbled to his knees. But he knew that he had no time to stop and rest. The child was still in the gate of hell. Not knowing where he got the strength, Lu Chen stood up holding the wall and walked towards the child's ward step by step with difficulty.

The atmosphere in the ward became more solemn, but there was still no news from the child's family. During the anxious waiting, the child's condition further deteriorated, and it was already too late to enter the operating room.

Dr. Li sighed heavily. Looking at the child on the bed, he could do nothing. He had already done what he had to do. Seeing the child's heartbeat continuously weakening on the instrument, Dr. Li already knew the outcome of the matter.

Lu Chen walked to the bedside with difficulty, and the other doctors didn't notice him at all. Finally, Lu Chen slowly knelt down.

The child also saw Lu Chen coming back again, and his eyes were about to close in a daze, but he gave Lu Chen a smile with difficulty again. He raised his little hand restlessly to wipe away the dense beads of sweat on Lu Chen's forehead. But he didn't have the energy to do this at all.

"Eat it and you will get better." Lu Chen's voice was very weak, so weak that only children could hear it. Without hesitation, he put the black elixir directly to the child's mouth.

The child looked a little confused, but he still opened his mouth without hesitation. Taking this opportunity, Lu Chen directly stuffed the pill into the child's mouth. After watching the child's throat squirm with difficulty, Lu Chen finally collapsed on the edge of the hospital bed due to exhaustion.

"What did he feed the child?" At this time, a sharp-eyed nurse noticed this and asked with some confusion.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Chen again. Now Lu Chen had passed out and had no reaction at all.

Dr. Li was shocked when he saw Lu Chen unconscious on the hospital bed. If he has any shortcomings, how should he explain it to the dean? He quickly laid Lu Chen flat on another hospital bed next to him and began to examine it carefully.

Fortunately, I just fell asleep due to exhaustion, and it was nothing serious. My heart that was originally hanging finally fell to the ground. Before Dr. Li could figure out why Lu Chen was exhausted. The bad news came again.

"Beep!" An annoying sound came from the heartbeat monitor.

"Doctor, the child's heartbeat has stopped. Do we need a pacemaker?" At this time, the assistant doctor seemed to have not given up hope of saving the child.

"Forget it. Let him go. It's better than suffering this kind of pain again." Dr. Li sighed. He comes into contact with this kind of patients every day and knows the pain. Perhaps for these patients, death is a relief. After all, their situation is worse than death.

Everyone sighed. Naturally, their thoughts were similar to Dr. Li's. It was not that they didn't want to save this child. But think about the endless pain that awaits the child even if he is rescued. In the end, you will reach the point of no return.

The nurse pulled the white sheet and prepared to cover the child's still smiling face. She felt extremely unbearable but the fact was already in front of her eyes.

"Wait!" At this time, the assistant doctor discovered something unusual, and ripples flashed in the heartbeat monitor.

"She's still alive!" The assistant doctor almost jumped because of the accident when he realized that his heartbeat slowly recovered and was close to a normal heartbeat.

"The number of platelets is increasing, but there are still problems with hematopoietic function. It's still increasing! It's higher than the normal value!" A nurse's expression turned from surprise to surprise, and finally to shock!

"Is this...is this a miracle?" Looking at the strange data report, Dr. Li's expression changed from surprise to shock. The cancer cells were not eliminated from the child's body, but what was going on with the sudden increase in platelets.

"Dr. Li, the platelets are now in a stable state, although they are slightly lower than the normal value. But they don't seem to be decreasing anymore."

"Could it be that you ate something from that person and became like this?" A nurse looked at Lu Chen suspiciously and subconsciously expressed her inner guess.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Chen again. Could it be that this kid had an exclusive secret recipe for treating incurable diseases? According to the current situation, everything that happened must be related to what Lu Chen fed.

The answer to everything can only be known when Lu Chen wakes up.

In a daze, Lu Chen rubbed his head and climbed up from the hospital bed. He didn't know if he had a dream yesterday, but feeling the inner energy in his body that had not yet returned to its full state, Lu Chen knew that what happened yesterday really happened before his eyes.

"What's wrong with me? Is my head hot?" Lu Chen patted his forehead, not knowing what was going on with his sudden and inexplicable behavior yesterday.

"Brother, are you awake?" Lu Chen was still in a daze when a childish voice brought him back to reality.

"You? Are you alive?" Although Lu Chen's words were not very pleasant, they reflected what he wanted to know most.

"The candies my brother gave me weren't very tasty, but after eating them I didn't feel any pain. It's strange." Although the child is still a little bald, his face is not as pale as yesterday, which seems rare. I saw a trace of blood.

"Candy? Haha!" Lu Chen was a little dumbfounded, feeling that the elixir he had spent so much energy on didn't taste very good.

"Isn't it?" The child looked at Lu Chen innocently.

"Yes, don't look at me with such innocent eyes. I can't stand this. This pill, well, this candy can only protect you for a while, but it can't protect you for the rest of your life. It's none of my business how you like it in the future. "Lu Chen didn't get a moment's sense of accomplishment because he saved this child. I don’t know how I could be so hot-headed as to look at something like this that is harmful to myself and not beneficial to myself. Obviously he couldn't get any benefit from this child. It was obvious that he was thankless for what happened last night.

"What is a moment and what is a lifetime?" Obviously the child's cultural level was not up to what Chase Lu was telling her, and she couldn't understand such profound words at all.

"Okay, to put it bluntly, the pain in your body will come back after a while." Lu Chen explained helplessly.

"Don't be afraid. My brother is by my side. As long as you give me more candies, I will be fine." The child said innocently.

Lu Chen almost spat out a mouthful of blood. This child couldn't be relying on him! It's not a good thing to have such a sick person! Lu Chen's compassion has not overflowed to the point where he would lend a helping hand when he saw a terminally ill child.

"Don't call me brother, I'm not your brother." Lu Chen's face was stern. It was better to clear the relationship quickly at this time. It's not a good thing if someone is blackmailing you.

It wasn't that Chase Lu didn't want to save her, but he didn't have that important medicine at all. There is no way to eradicate the root cause of this child's disease. I tried boldly yesterday, but I didn't expect that I could really stabilize the condition. But obviously this requires a lot of energy and inner energy, and Lu Chen doesn't want to destroy his body.

If you don't do it for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth! Lu Chen naturally believed in this truth, if he could easily make a pill to stabilize his condition. Lu Chen didn't mind, but now it was obvious that his body couldn't withstand this kind of baptism. It's better to cause less trouble for yourself. Right now, your own affairs have not been resolved smoothly.

"I don't know. When I saw my brother, I felt that you were so kind, just like my brother. So I called you brother. I won't be angry anymore." The child's eyes were wide, and his pitiful appearance made anyone There is no way to resist.

"Okay! Did you learn to flatter him at such a young age? But these words are quite pleasant." Lu Chen also secretly enjoyed the child's words, obviously it was not a compliment.

"What does Zhongting mean?"

"It means you have a sweet mouth."

"But I ate your candy yesterday, and now my mouth is still bitter."

"Okay, I admit that I lost!" Lu Chen had the urge to hit a wall. Sure enough, he couldn't show off his literary skills when communicating with children!

"I didn't play games with my brother, how could he lose?"

"Ah!" Lu Chen grabbed his hair, and Lu Chen had no way to explain the logic of his words after offending such an innocent child.

Although the child's condition has temporarily stabilized, the cancer cells in her body have not been contained after all. So she was not discharged from the hospital, but stayed in the hospital for continued observation. Besides, none of her family members have shown up yet.

Lu Chen was not in the mood to talk nonsense with a child, he was probably tired. The child climbed back onto the hospital bed and went to sleep. Lu Chen also packed up his hospital gown and returned to his ward. There are important people to meet today.

Enjoying the unusually warm sunshine in the afternoon, Lu Chen welcomed the first visitor of the day.

"Hello, are you Mr. Lu Chen? My name is Zhu Wanxin, and I am your attorney." A man in his thirties, dressed in a crisp gray suit, walked into Lu Chen's office carrying a brown office bag. Ward.

"Hello, Lawyer Zhu!" Although it was a bit awkward to shout, Lu Chen couldn't find any other way to say hello.

"Well, I'll get straight to the point. The client has told me this case in detail. Naturally, I will vigorously defend you. Although I advocate a guilty plea, after all, all the evidence is against you. That's ok. I will appropriately reduce your sentence, and since you want to plead not guilty, I will do my best."

"Lawyer Zhu spoke very straightforwardly. Yes, all the evidence in this matter is against me, but I can be sure that the victim did not die in my hands at all." Lu Chen said confidently.

"Oh, is that so? To be honest, I don't really care about whether you killed the person. What I do is to find all the evidence that may be beneficial to our defense of innocence." Zhu Wanxin's face was not moved at all by Lu Chen's confidence. .

Lu Chen did not expect that this lawyer was quite professional. He probably only cared about how much he received and how much effort he put in. He didn't care at all whether the suspect actually did it.

Although Lu Chen was a little unimpressed by Zhu Wanxin's attitude, after all, this person came here to help him, so he quickly informed him of possible favorable conditions.

"You mean there was a third person at the crime scene, and the witness was an old man." Zhu Wanxin carefully wrote down any conditions that were beneficial to them.

While the two people were still looking for information related to the case that would be helpful for the defense of innocence, another person walked into the room at this time.

Wearing a serious black suit with a white shirt underneath, he casually unbuttoned the two buttons on the collar, a professional black knee-length skirt, and a national emblem on his plump chest. No need to think that this is the second guest, the prosecutor of Lu Chen’s case, the prosecutor!

However, what Chase Chase didn't expect was that the prosecutor was actually a woman, and she looked to be only 27 or 28 years old. Such a young person actually took the position of prosecutor. There must be some strong backing.

"Why is it you?" The female prosecutor walked into the room and shouted in surprise before even looking at Chase Lu.

Obviously this was not talking to Lu Chen, but to Lawyer Zhu who was beside Chen Lu's bedside.

"Hello, Prosecutor Hong." The lawyer still had a calm expression on his face, and did not feel the least bit strange about Prosecutor Hong's arrival. Obviously he already knew the prosecutor, to the point where he didn't even stand up to say hello to Prosecutor Hong.

"Okay mom, do you not care about your daughter's life or death? Do you know what happened last night?" Prosecutor Hong had already started to get angry. He did not treat Lu Chen as a bystander at all.

Wait, there seems to be something wrong with this. Lu Chen looked at Prosecutor Hong with a puzzled look on his face. Obviously these two people don't just know each other, they seem to have some unclear relationship.

"Sorry, in a legal sense, although I am still Zhu Qingqing's father, I am only responsible for the living expenses. As for the life and death of my daughter, the responsibility may lie with you as the guardian." Attorney Zhu's expression was not at all because of Prosecutor Hong. any changes in the outburst. They all have a poker face anyway.

What's the meaning? The two of them seemed to be in a husband-and-wife relationship, probably a divorced couple. After Lu Chen listened to Lawyer Zhu's words, it seemed that the two of them had a love child. But it seemed that Zhu Wanxin was indifferent to his daughter. As both men, Lu Chen felt that Zhu Wanxin's attitude in speaking was a bit too much. No matter what, they are my own flesh and blood!

However, Lu Chen did not interrupt, because now it seemed that his identity was only the defendant in this case, and the family affairs of the two of them seemed to have nothing to do with him at all.

"You beast!" Prosecutor Hong's scolding immediately made Lu Chen's eyes light up. It turned out that such serious job-related scolding did not belong to those scolding shrews!

"Please be careful what you say, I can sue you for defamation!" Lawyer Zhu is indeed a lawyer who always talks about the law.

"You are the only one who knows the law? I am also a prosecutor! If you can, sue me, sue me!" Prosecutor Hong blushed and pointed at Lawyer Zhu and almost jumped up.

Provocation, this is a naked provocation! Lu Chen couldn't stand it anymore. What are you doing? You really think I'm blind and deaf!

"Ahem!" Lu Chen coughed awkwardly, reminding the two of them that there were still people present.

"Shut up!" The turning point of the bombardment actually came to Lu Chen. Lu Chen's good intentions were directly reprimanded, and naturally he felt unhappy.

"You two, you are here for my case. This is the hospital, not your home, okay? If there is any family dispute, you can go home and discuss it slowly. I am not your punching bag!" Lu Chen said angrily. One sentence.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, I already understand what happened. So I won't disturb your rest." Lawyer Zhu directly picked up the briefcase and left the ward without looking back.
