Wei Ming hesitated again and again, and was about to tell her that he might be able to cure this disease.
Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Lin Muxue changed the subject and suddenly said:
"However, I have found a miracle doctor"
"Daddy's illness should be cured soon."
Wei Ming's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
"What?"
He couldn't help but ask, his tone slightly excited.
"Have you... found a miracle doctor?"
Lin Muxue nodded heavily.
After hearing this, Wei Ming was not happy at all, but had a complex expression on his face.
He also hoped that Father Lin could recover soon, but he also didn't want Lin Muxue to be deceived.
In the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, there were probably only a handful of people who could cure such strange diseases. How could Lin Muxue meet him by such a coincidence?
"Brother Wei, you don't have to worry about this matter. I trust the doctor."
Perhaps seeing Wei Ming's doubts, Lin Muxue explained:
"The doctor told me that my father's strange illness was caused by evil spirits."
"As long as you drink the talisman water and get rid of the evil spirits on your body, you will be cured."
Lin Muxue looked at Wei Ming seriously and said word by word.
Wei Ming was confused.
"Is your father's strange illness caused by evil spirits?"
"Want to drink Talisman water?"
Wei Ming frowned, thinking something bad in his heart.
He didn't know how to explain to Lin Muxue that all this was fake and a lie, because even if he explained science, the other party wouldn't understand, and it was just in vain.
"Yes, that miracle doctor is so amazing that he is famous all over the country. Many people have seen with their own eyes that patients who were once seriously ill recovered overnight after drinking his talisman water."
Lin Muxue introduced with pride, seemingly without any doubts.
"Are you...sure that he really has superb medical skills?"
Wei Ming took a long breath and continued to ask.
He has seen many quack doctors like this. If he really has this ability, why would he want to work as a doctor in a remote country?
Talking about being haunted by evil spirits and talking about talisman water is just nonsense.
This kind of rhetoric is okay for deceiving the common people in the countryside, but if you want to deceive Wei Ming, it is simply fantastic.
But when he turned his head, Lin Muxue still looked confident in front of him, and Wei Ming couldn't help but feel a headache.
I really don't want to get involved in this troublesome matter, but I can't just watch the Lin family's father and daughter being deceived, right?
Thinking this, his face became serious.
"Miss Mu Xue, after the miracle doctor arrives, if there is any trouble, come to me immediately."
Wei Ming asked worriedly.
Rather than explaining so much to Lin Muxue, it would be better to expose the miracle doctor's lies face to face.
"Um."
"Brother Wei also wants to see the miraculous doctor."
Lin Muxue smiled brightly and said jokingly, pretending to be relaxed and teasing Wei Ming.
Wei Ming smiled bitterly, not knowing how to continue.
But since the other party said so, I simply pretended to be confused. Anyway, the Lin family believed those false words, and I just took the opportunity to expose the other party's lies.
So he also started to echo:
"Yes, I have admired miracle doctors the most since I was a child."
"Today I can finally see his style."
Wei Ming forced himself to pretend to be in admiration, but the corners of his mouth were twitching.
At this moment, he wished he could beat up the charlatan so that he could walk away without food.
However, at this juncture, we must not cause any trouble.
Otherwise, wouldn’t everything I have worked so hard to arrange be in vain?
I could only suppress my inner anger and pretend to be excited.
"Brother Wei, don't be too anxious, he will be here today anyway."
Lin Muxue said with a smile.
"If you are lucky, you can even ask for a bowl of talisman water to drink, and you will live a long life."
Naturally, she didn't know what Wei Ming was thinking, and thought he was extremely interested in the miracle doctor.
After all, the miracle doctor has great prestige in the world, and many people come to him for treatment.
After hearing her words, Wei Ming almost laughed out loud.
This little girl talks so cutely, right?
You can live a long life, which is obviously a lie.
But seeing the innocent look on the other party's face, Wei Ming couldn't bear to expose it.
However, he did not want to continue this topic with Lin Muxue, lest he be amused.
So he said perfunctorily: "Hmm, I hope that miracle doctor can really help Miss Mu Xue's father cure his illness."
Lin Muxue nodded with a dimple-like smile, her beautiful eyes showing the light of expectation.
Just as the two were talking, there was suddenly a sound of footsteps outside the door.
The two of them looked up together.
I saw an old man who was about sixty years old, with white beard and hair, wearing simple clothes, with a kind face and a fairy spirit, walked in with a few servants.
He held a cane in one hand and carried it behind his back with the other. He was thin but energetic.
When Lin Muxue saw this, she quickly raised her hands and saluted:
"Junior, please see Doctor Lin."
"Well, are you Lin Muxue?"
The old man ignored Wei Ming, looked Lin Muxue up and down, and asked.
"That's right."
Lin Muxue replied with a respectful and humble attitude.
"well!"
The old man nodded with satisfaction.
"Your father's illness can be cured with just a little conditioning and the blessing of gods."
"Thank you, Doctor Wang."
Lin Muxue was overjoyed.
The old man waved his hand and said indifferently:
"Don't thank me. This is your father's own creation. He has profound blessings and nothing will happen to him."
After saying that, he walked straight into the house, and his servants quickly followed, seemingly too lazy to pay attention to Wei Ming and Lin Muxue.
When Wei Ming saw this, he couldn't help but feel unhappy in his heart.
Is this old man pretending to be an addict?
"Humph, you're just pretending, do you really think you can cure it?"
He murmured in a low voice, becoming more and more convinced that the miracle doctor was a charlatan.
After all, if you are really skilled in medicine, how can you talk about blessings and good fortune, which are full of deception?
Moreover, with such poor acting skills, he could deceive Lin Muxue, but he could not deceive himself.
Lin Muxue also noticed Wei Ming's emotional fluctuations, and felt a little strange in her heart.
But she didn't ask any more questions, just smiled and said:
"Brother Wei, the miracle doctor Wang has arrived. Please come with me to see the miracle doctor."
"Okay, please."
Wei Ming nodded in agreement and followed Lin Muxue's footsteps.
.....
Inside the room, Divine Doctor Wang was sitting on a chair, closing his eyes and concentrating, while the servants serving him stood respectfully aside.
After Wei Ming and Lin Muxue walked in, the miracle doctor slowly opened his eyes and looked at them.
"Doctor Wang, how is my father's condition?"
Although Lin Muxue was anxious, she did not forget to give Yingying the gift.
Although Wei Ming didn't want to say hello to this charlatan, he didn't dare to make a mistake because of Lin Muxue's presence.
"Don't worry, if I take action, are there any people who can't be saved?"
Divine Doctor Wang glanced at Lin Muxue, curled his lips disdainfully, and his tone was cold.
This made Lin Muxue blush and feel a little embarrassed.
"Miracle Doctor Wang is truly a man of great powers."
Wei Mingpi flattered him with a smile.
The old man didn't appreciate it at all. He glanced at him and responded calmly:
"Huh, you don't have to flatter me, I can't bear it."
There was a sense of arrogance in his words.
"Before treating the disease, let's talk about the price first."
Doctor Wang got straight to the point, not hiding the greed in his eyes.
He had already found out Lin Muxue's details, and naturally knew the money that the other party had with him.
When Wei Ming heard this, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
This old guy is quite greedy, and he imposes conditions as soon as he comes, which is really abominable.
See how I expose you in a moment!
Lin Muxue on the side was unusually calm and asked:
"Mr. Wang, how much money do you want to cure my father's disease?"
The old man was silent for a moment and then said:
"Two hundred husks of rice."
"What?"
Lin Muxue's beautiful eyes widened in surprise.
She thought that as long as she paid a sufficient price, Divine Doctor Wang would definitely treat her father's illness, but she didn't expect that Divine Doctor Wang would open his mouth like a lion.
In the war-torn Three Kingdoms, the most valuable thing is undoubtedly food.
Two hundred bushels of rice is equivalent to the consumption of a family for several years!
Not everyone can get this money.
When Wei Ming heard this from the side, he couldn't help but take a breath.
Two hundred bushels of rice, this is the plan to empty out the Lin family!
This miracle doctor Wang is too greedy!
"Two hundred bushels of rice, impossible!"
Lin Muxue categorically refused, with an undeniable determination in her tone.
"This is the lowest price."
When the old man saw this, his face could not help but darken.
"These must be sacrificed to the gods. Only gods can cure your father's illness."
"If you don't like it, you can find someone else to diagnose and treat your father."
Lin Muxue suddenly panicked when she heard about the immortal.
She shook her head quickly:
"No, no, no, I am willing, Doctor Wang, just ask for the price."
Seeing this, the old man nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, if that's the case, then please come with me."
