Chapter 1717: The Unreasonable City Lord's Wife

g's current abilities, she could directly snatch people if she wanted to. But since they've already gotten this far, let's just keep playing along.He was even a little excited now, wanting to see what..."How did you do that"

Zhai Lingxiu appeared calm on the surface, but a storm raged within her heart.

She hasn't been feeling well recently and has seen several well-known doctors, but they haven't been able to find the problem.

But this young man in front of me, just by touching himself, cured the illness. This is too incredible to say out loud, if I hadn't experienced it firsthand, I probably wouldn't believe it myself.

Ye Bufan smiled faintly: "Exclusive secret techniques cannot be passed on. You only need to know that I am an excellent doctor."

"Playing possum, aren't you afraid of death Come with me."

Zhai Lingxiu finished speaking and walked forward first. Ye Bufan and Su Dingfang followed behind.

About 20 minutes later, the group appeared in front of the City Lord's Mansion. Looking at the imposing yet luxurious mansion before them, Ye Bufan marveled in his heart. He had never imagined that the scenes he had seen in movies and TV shows would appear so vividly before him.

Zhai Lingxiu led everyone into the city lord's mansion. After passing through several courtyards, they finally arrived at a room door. This was the bedroom where City Lord Zhai Tianfang resided.

Standing at the entrance of the room was a young man in his twenties, with a look of sorrow between his brows. He was the brother of Zhai Lingxiu and the son of the former City Lord, Zhai Tianfang, known as Young Master Zhai Gang.

"Brother, I've brought people to treat Father."

Zhai Lingxiu stepped forward and said.

"Oh! It's Doctor Su, thank you for your help."

Compared to Zhai Lingxiu's rough style, Zhai Gang is polite and refined, looking more like a scholarly scholar.

His full attention was on Su Dingfang, completely ignoring Ye Bufan beside him.

But Ye Bufan did not dare to underestimate this young man in the slightest. He sensed a tremendous pressure from Zhai Gang, bringing an extreme sense of danger. The other party's cultivation was at least above the Nascent Soul stage.

"It's alright, Su will do their best."

Up until now, Su Dingfang's heart has been in his throat. After all, he had no certainty about curing the other person's illness.

"Please come with me."

After Zhai Gang finished speaking, he pushed open the door and led everyone into the room.

As soon as Ye Bufan stepped through the door, he immediately felt a wave of chilling killing intent wash over him. The temperature in the entire room seemed to be from a different world compared to outside, incredibly cold.

In the center of the room stood a bed, on which lay a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties. His face was pale and his eyes were tightly shut.

What's most frightening is that even the eyebrows and mustache are covered with

...covered in a light dusting of frost. ...

A beautiful woman in her 30s was sitting by the bed, using a towel to constantly wipe the face of a middle-aged man.

Shortly after the towel was removed, frost once again appeared on his eyebrows and mustache, showing just how strong the cold within him was.

Zhai Gang bowed to the beautiful woman and said, "Auntie, a doctor has come to see Father."

This woman is Liu Meiniang, the wife of City Lord Zhai Tianfang of Tianglang City.

Ye Bufan glanced at her. Although his expression was serious, there was a mature woman's charm in his words and deeds, full of allure.

"It's great that a doctor has come, my heart was about to burst with worry."

Liu Meiniang's face revealed a look of anxiety, she looked over here, and when she saw Su Dingfang, her expression changed involuntarily.

"Aren't you Su Dingfang from the Taiping Medical Hall You've already been here before. Why are you here again Did you find a way to cure my husband, or are you after the million taels of silver reward"

"This..."

Su Dingfang's old face instantly flushed red, as if it were the color of pig liver, completely unsure how to respond.

He just glanced at Zhai Tianfang on the bed. His condition was much worse than when he had seen him before; he hadn't been able to cure him then, and now he was utterly helpless.

And just then, a soft voice rang out: "I'm the one who came to treat the city lord."

When Ye Bufan finished speaking, everyone present was taken aback, including Zhai Gang, who couldn't help but look him up and down a few times. He didn't expect this young man to be a doctor as well.

When Liu Meiniang saw Ye Bufan's face, her expression instantly darkened.

"Kid, are you kidding me"

Ye Bufan's expression remained calm: "Of course it's not a joke. I am a doctor, and I have come to treat the Lord Mayor."

Liu Meiniang said, "Just because you're a young whippersnapper with no experience, what qualifications do you have to treat my husband"

"Since I said I could cure it, that means I'm confident. The proclamation on the city lord's mansion is clear: if I can't cure the city lord's illness, I am willing to accept death by flogging!"

But after thinking about it, no matter whether it was cured or not, today's result was already destined, so I finally held back from saying anything.

"Even if you died a hundred times, your worthless life wouldn't compare to one finger of my husband. How could you possibly treat him"

Liu Meiniang refused without hesitation, then shouted to the outside of the room: "Come"

(To be continued, please turn the page)

Man, drag this madman out and execute him by flogging!

At these words, the expressions of everyone present changed. Ye Bufan also frowned. He had absolute confidence in his medical skills, but he didn't expect that the city lord's wife would be so unreasonable.

Just as he was hesitating whether or not to resist, Zhai Lingxiu beside him shouted angrily: "Get back all of you! Who dares to touch the doctor I invited"

Originally, several samurai had lunged in with bared fangs and claws, but upon hearing her furious roar, they immediately retreated in fear.

Ye Bufan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't expect this little girl to stand up and speak for him at the critical moment.

If it really came down to a fight, and I went all out, I'd have a pretty good chance of escaping the City Lord's Mansion.

But that would be completely contrary to my original intention. I only wanted to use the City Lord's Mansion to help me find medicine, not to create a powerful enemy for myself.

Besides, running away would leave the Su family's father and daughter behind. That wasn't what he wanted to see.

Liu Meiniang said dissatisfiedly, "Zhai Lingxiu, what are you doing Asking such a young man to treat your father's illness, don't you want to kill him"

"You are the one who wants to kill my father! I brought a doctor, but you wouldn't let him treat him. Am I just supposed to let my father die"

Zi Lingxiu stood her ground, refusing to back down. It was clear that she and this aunt did not get along.

"What are you saying How could I possibly wish for my husband to die!" Liu Meiniang cried out angrily, "Zhai Lingxiu, have you forgotten how your father ended up like this It was those incompetent doctors who caused it!"

Zhai Lingxiu argued her point, "He's the doctor I invited. He's very skilled, and I've already tested it out. How could he be a quack"

Ye Bufan secretly nodded, it seemed that his previous display still had a good effect, he had completely conquered this little girl.

"Don't be ridiculous, he's so young! Even if he were born knowing medicine, how good could he possibly be I absolutely won't let him treat my husband!"

Zhai Lingxiu became furious: "What do you intend to do then Are you just going to watch my father grow sicker day by day"

Liu Meiniang said, "Of course not. I have already sent people to the capital to invite Doctor Xue. As soon as the doctor arrives, my husband's illness will be cured immediately."

Just as the two of them were arguing back and forth, suddenly a loud voice came from outside the door: "Dr. Xue has arrived!"
