Chapter 240 Two Letters Left by Changming

Li Chongbai frowned, his eyes filled with deep worry as he looked at Nan Yu.

"Yingying, did you have a high fever before? You didn't fully recover before you started staying up late every day and working hard. Now your body can't take it anymore and you have a persistent high fever again."

He sighed, "I'll give you two acupuncture treatments. Lie down on the sofa and rest for a while."

Nan Yu's face was flushed and her forehead was covered in sweat. She withdrew her wrist and shook her head, saying, "Uncle Li, there's no need to do acupuncture for me. I just had a fever-reducing injection, and I'll be fine in a bit."

Li Chongbai forcibly pulled her back and pressed her down to sit on the only sofa in the ward. "No, you should rest now."

He turned to Pei Yu and ordered, "Pei Yu, give me my silver needles."

Pei Yu immediately took out a box of silver needles and handed it to Li Chongbai.

"Teacher, this is for you."

Li Chongbai took it, and ignoring Nan Yu's refusal, directly pulled out the silver needles and inserted them into several acupoints on her head.

"Yingying, it'll only take half an hour, it'll be done in a bit."

Fearing that Nan Yu would resist, Li Chongbai pressed down hard on her shoulders to prevent her from leaving.

Nan Yu sat on the sofa, unable to stand up at all. At this point, she stopped refusing, silently closed her eyes, leaned against the wall, and pretended to rest.

Li Chongbai turned around and wrote a prescription, handing it to Pei Yu. "Pei Yu, go and get this medicine, and make sure they brew it within half an hour."

"good teacher."

Pei Yu took the prescription and immediately left the ward to get the Chinese medicine.

Li Chongbai stood with his hands behind his back, pacing back and forth in the ward, glancing occasionally at Nan Yu who was pretending to be asleep, and observing Duan Zhu who remained as quiet as ever.

Although Nan Yu had her eyes closed, she couldn't fall asleep at all and could clearly feel Li Chongbai pacing around.

She slowly opened her eyes and looked at Li Chongbai. "Uncle Li, sit down for a while." When Li Chongbai saw that Nan Yu had opened her eyes again, he said worriedly, "Did I disturb you? I'll sit down now, and you can continue to rest."

Nan Yu's face was pale, and she gently shook her head, "It's because I can't sleep, it has nothing to do with you."

She paused for a moment, then asked the question that had been nagging at her.

"Uncle Li, how do you know Ghost Doctor Changming?"

Upon hearing this, Li Chongbai recalled the three types of acupuncture techniques used by the Ghost Doctors of Nanyu Society and couldn't help but say, "Six years ago, by chance, I met Changming in City C and we worked together to cure a patient."

"It was during that opportunity that I started to keep in touch with him occasionally afterward, and we became friends."

"Until two years ago, one night, he suddenly sent me a text message asking me to go to that address."

He paused, took a deep breath, and continued, "When I arrived, he had already passed away, leaving behind two letters, one for me and one for his apprentice."

Upon hearing this, Nan Yu unconsciously clenched her fists. Her eyes reddened as she pressed on, asking, "What did the letter say?"

Li Chongbai was lost in his memories and didn't notice that Nan Yu's emotions were more urgent than before.

"The letter he gave me asked me to deliver another letter to his apprentice and to help him with a secret burial, saying that from now on he would no longer be the Ghost Doctor and that the words 'Ghost Doctor' should not be mentioned on his tombstone."

Upon hearing this, Nan Yu felt a sharp pain in her heart, which brought tears to her eyes.

She suppressed the stinging sensation in her nose and tried her best to make her voice sound normal.

"Uncle Li, do you still have the other letter?"

Li Chongbai shook his head. "No, I hadn't even seen the other letter back then when Changming's apprentice took it first and disappeared without a trace."

"I learned that he had a disciple from the letter Changming left for me, and that he left a letter for that disciple."
