"Second Sister, I don't want to go out, I want to see Third Sister..."
Duan Si pulled on her Second Sister's hand, pleading.
"Can you two be quiet? Are you impatient for Duan San to die sooner?"
Su Yang raised an eyebrow, and the people in the room stopped their noise.
"Second Miss, is Third Miss afraid of the sun?"
"Yes, Mr. Su, my third sister's skin will fester and she'll itch and hurt terribly if she's in the sun for just five minutes!"
"Bring a little mouse over."
"Okay, Xiao Qi, hurry and get one."
Su Yang pricked Duan San's finger and put the purple blood into a blood vial.
He then gave it to the little mouse to drink. A few minutes later, the mouse was still hopping around alive.
This indicated that Duan San was not poisoned, nor was it an infectious disease.
Physician Chen's face changed drastically. He had just insisted that Duan San was poisoned, only to be proven wrong so quickly.
Su Yang confirmed Duan San's condition, "This is porphyria!"
"What?"
The Duan sisters cried out in alarm. This was a very rare and severe illness.
"Mr. Su, does my third sister still have a chance?"
Duan Er's voice trembled as she spoke, finding it hard to accept this cruel reality.
Su Yang thought of two methods. "The fastest and best way is to give her a complete blood transfusion, but her physical condition is poor; she wouldn't be able to withstand it!"
"Another method is for me to give her acupuncture long-term. We'll do blood transfusions while addressing the root cause."
"Mr. Su, please proceed. Tell us if you need anything!"
Duan Er was decisive and chose the second method.
She also had people prepare blood for immediate transfusion to Duan San.
Su Yang laid out the Tai Xuan Longevity Needles. "You all wait outside first!"
"No, we're not bothering you, why do we have to go out?"
Duan Si was being noisy, and Su Yang looked at her coldly.
"If you can do it, you do it!"
"You..."
"Fourth Sister, get out immediately!"
Duan Er roared, scaring her younger sisters into rushing outside.
After everyone had left, Su Yang grabbed a silver needle and unbuttoned Duan San's clothes.
"I'm saving you. I hope you don't hold a grudge when you wake up!"
With that, Su Yang inserted several needles into Duan San's acupoints, cutting off the source of the purple blood.
He then pricked her fingers and began to let out blood.
The purple blood was thick and viscous, even more so than honey, flowing slowly into the blood vial.
Su Yang connected the blood bag to the needle and began infusing her with clean, fresh blood.
Duan San, who had been purple all over, began to regain some color.
Her lips, no longer black, slowly turned from purple to a lighter shade.
"Cough..."
Duan San coughed a few times, her breathing becoming more even.
Su Yang inserted another needle into her forehead, between her eyebrows.
After a while.
Duan San slowly opened her eyes, gazing dazedly at Su Yang by her bedside.
"Who are you?"
"Su Yang."
Duan San had been unconscious for too long and had never heard of Su Yang.
—So handsome. Is there such a young physician in Songhai?
Duan San thought to herself, but then felt a chill.
She looked down and saw silver needles of various lengths all over her body.
"Did you see?"
Su Yang nodded.
"Did you touch?"
Su Yang nodded again. "You were sick, and I'm a physician..."
"Yes, since you're a physician, whatever you say goes."
Duan San turned her head away, her face burning red.
At the same time, a mechanical voice sounded in Su Yang's mind.
[Congratulations to the host for successfully caring for Duan Xiao San, obtaining the special item: Thousand Transformations!]
[Congratulations to the host for advancing in medical skills, rewarded with a pharmacy containing over a thousand types of herbs.]
[Congratulations to the host for successfully caring for Duan Xiao Qi, gaining 50% favorability from Duan Xiao Qi. Please continue your efforts!]
Su Yang was stunned. "System, why are there two women? And what is this Thousand Transformations item?"
[Host, Thousand Transformations is a special face-changing item. You can transform into anyone anytime, anywhere. The transformation lasts for two hours and cannot be used within seven days!]
[Additionally, Duan Xiao Qi's favorability towards you has reached 100%. A mysterious gift awaits!]
The system disappeared again. Su Yang scratched his head. Was it like Yang Man Ge?
—Useless system, not answering my questions.
Never mind, let's focus on the task at hand.
"Mr. Su, I'm a bit cold..."
Su Yang removed the silver needles from Duan San and gently covered her with the blanket.
"This is the first course of treatment. I'll come back in a few days when I'm free!"
"You're coming back?"
Duan San was so shy that she flusteredly hid under the covers.
Outside the door, the Duan sisters rushed forward to ask when they saw Su Yang emerge.
"Mr. Su, how is Third Sister?"
"She's awake and not in any life-threatening danger for now. You can go in and see for yourselves!"
Upon hearing this, the group rushed inside.
"Third Sister."
"Third Sister, how do you feel?"
Duan Er sat by the bed and helped Duan San up.
Duan San wriggled her hands. "I feel a bit of strength in my hands now, and my body doesn't feel as uncomfortable as before."
"That's wonderful! Mr. Su truly has extraordinary medical skills. Huh? Where did he go?"
Duan Er only then remembered that she hadn't paid Su Yang his fee.
"Second Sister, he's in the courtyard cleaning the silver needles."
"Alright, let's go find him. Fourth Sister, you stay here."
Fearing that Duan Si would offend Su Yang, everyone told her to stay in the room and wait.
Duan Si felt wronged. "I knew he was so young and knew medicine. It's all Physician Chen's fault, you useless old fraud!"
Duan Si pointed at Physician Chen and scolded him. "Decades of studying medicine? Bah! You've learned nothing but dogshit!"
Physician Chen was deeply ashamed, lowered his head, and left with his medicine box.
Su Yang turned and stopped him.
"Su, Divine Physician Su, please spare me. I'm truly ashamed..."
Physician Chen thought Su Yang was going to kick him while he was down and quickly begged for mercy.
Unexpectedly, Su Yang smiled. "Physician Chen, do you practice traditional Chinese medicine?"
"Yes, yes, yes. This old man is dull and has only dabbled in TCM for decades. I'm truly ashamed..."
Physician Chen was embarrassed and didn't dare to look up, just wanting to leave Duan Family Villa quickly. It was too humiliating.
Su Yang said, "For certain reasons, Ding Bowen's businesses, including the pharmacy, now belong to me."
After Ding Bowen's death, his businesses were taken over by Su Yang, which included a pharmacy.
Coupled with the reward from the system, Su Yang was almost overwhelmed.
"I'm busy with many things and happen to need someone with medical knowledge to help manage them. What do you think?"
"Ding Bowen? Divine Physician Ding, he..."
"Is dead!"
Physician Chen's aged body trembled. He didn't dare to ask for details.
"Thank you for your favor, Divine Physician Su. This old man will do his best and will never make rash conclusions again!"
"You go back first. I'll notify you!"
Su Yang handed him a card, and Physician Chen left happily.
In this day and age, not many people studied traditional Chinese medicine.
Setting aside his arrogance, Physician Chen was still a capable individual.
Duan Er smiled slightly. "Divine Physician Su truly has great magnanimity!"
"Second Miss, you jest. Physician Chen actually has some foundation; he just encountered illnesses he didn't understand."
"By the way, Divine Physician Su, thank you for your help today. Otherwise, Third Sister would have been in grave danger."
"Divine Physician Su, do you need anything? Our Duan Family Villa will spare no effort to provide it!"
