Zhu Yanyi paused for a moment, then took out a pulse pillow. "Hold on. Let me check your pulses first."
She was curious about their condition. She had never heard of such a sickness in medical records.
Wu Han did not refuse. she placed her hand on the pillow for her to check.
Zhu Yanyi began taking her pulse. At the same time, she used her special ability to scan her body. Her body looked very young. She said she was seventy-eight, but she looked like a man in her forties. Of course, this was without checking bone age. When she checked her bones, she found they were indeed seventy-eight years old. This proved she was telling the truth.
She started to carefully analyze her body.
If it were just a strange disease, she could accept that. But the whole family was like this. This meant it was not a simple illness.
Why was there such a difference? Zhu Yanyi used her mind to record everything inside Wu Han’s body.
Then she let go and said to another man, who looked sixty or seventy but was actually only twenty-five: "You come. Let me check your pulse."
The man looked at Wu Han. Wu Han nodded. She sat in front of Zhu Yanyi and put her hand on the pillow.
Zhu Yanyi observed this man’s body too. Her body was like that of a sixty-year-old old man. If you ignored her bone age, no one would think her young face was different from her real age.
Zhu Yanyi compared Wu Han’s body with this man’s in her mind. There must be a reason for this difference. She needed to find it.
Slowly, she closed her eyes and compared them carefully. Blood, veins, muscles, and then the brain. Their brains seemed different from normal people.
Zhu Yanyi’s eyes lit up. She said to Wu Han, "Mr. Wu, please let me check your pulse again."
Wu Han agreed. She put out her hand again. Zhu Yanyi checked her pulse once more.
Normal people’s right brains are very quiet. It is hard for people to use their right brains. No one knows why the human right brain rests all the time. But it is true that the right brain is always resting. Only very smart people use part of their right brain. But using it does not change the shape of the right brain.
In Wu Han and her nephew’s right brains, Zhu Yanyi found something different. There was a pink mark like a peach blossom at the root of their right brains.
"Mr. Wu, you are poisoned," Zhu Yanyi said calmly. "The person who poisoned you is very skilled. She aimed at a specific part of the brain. The poison is at the root of your right brain. If I did not check pulses differently, no one would find this. That is why scanners and CT scans could not find the cause."
"Can it be cured?" Light flashed in Wu Han’s eyes. He was sure now that his family had hope. For so many years, the Wu family dared not go out. This strange poison made them suffer greatly.
Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly. "I need to know what poison it is first. Then I can tell you if it can be cured."
She opened her medicine box and took out a clear bottle with clear liquid inside. Wu Han watched as she took out a needle. "Mr. Wu, I need three drops of your blood."
"No problem." Wu Han put out his hand.
Zhu Yanyi pricked her index, middle, and ring fingers. She squeezed out three drops of blood and put them all into the bottle.
As soon as the blood entered the bottle, a peach blossom scent floated out. The blood turned pink and sank to the bottom.
Zhu Yanyi raised her eyebrows. She sealed the bottle. Then she took out some pills from another bottle and gave them to everyone present, including Gu Jingtian. "Swallow them."
Gu Jingtian swallowed his pill without hesitation. The others followed. After swallowing, Wu Han asked again, "Little Divine Doctor, what is it?"
"Peach Blossom Evil," Zhu Yanyi said slowly. "This poison was likely given by a woman. She might have loved someone but could not have her, or hated because of love. The Peach Blossom Evil is meant to stop people from keeping their youth. Your current look is because your ancestors sought doctors. This caused the age reversal."
"What is this Peach Blossom Evil?" Wu Han asked, confused.
Zhu Yanyi explained slowly, "It is not a thing, but a poison. Its effect is to make people never see their own handsome or beautiful young faces. This way, they will not have good marriages." Zhu Yanyi looked strange. "That is why I say a woman did this. Only women care so much about looks."
Wu Han smiled bitterly. "This poison has hurt everyone in our family. The men are okay. Because we have money, they can still find wives. No matter how the marriage is, they have children. But for women, there is no future. The only thing we can do is let them fall in love before seventeen. Even if they get pregnant before marriage, at least they have a child. After all, this is a time where looks matter. After seventeen, their love becomes a weapon that hurts them."
Zhu Yanyi nodded. She felt sorry for the women in the Wu family. For women, losing youth is very different from men. Men with money can still achieve their goals. But women cannot. Looks decide their future. Money is just one more card. "I do not know what your ancestors did to make this person hate your family. But going against heaven’s will is wrong. A poison that hurts descendants is worse than a curse. This is not a witch doctor’s method, but a poison doctor’s method."
Zhu Yanyi sighed in her heart. It seemed the world was going to be chaotic. Now not only witch doctors appeared, but poison doctors too. She really needed to watch the medical world closely.
"Poison doctor?" Wu Han frowned. "I do not remember our ancestors offending any poison doctors."
Zhu Yanyi smiled lightly. "Poison doctors act according to their own likes."
