Chapter 662: The Green Brothers Company Enters the Market

Zhu Yanyi paused, looking at Yan Aohan for a long while before speaking slowly. "The meridians on the tongue connect to the vocal cords in the throat. If these meridians are blocked, sound cannot come out."

"Given your medical skills, can't you unblock the meridians?" Yan Aohan looked at Zhu Yanyi seriously. He felt that she had the ability to save Zhang Haitao.

Zhu Yanyi swallowed a dumpling and lowered her eyes slightly. "I can unblock her meridians, but do you know? The meridians on the tongue are very fragile. Once injured, they are not easy to heal. My original plan was to shape a prosthetic tongue using cartilage. Then, through the movement of this prosthetic tongue, we would slowly exercise the tongue's meridians until they became active again. It is like people with missing limbs using prosthetics. At first, it feels unnatural, but with long-term practice, even a prosthetic limb can be used well. The prosthetic tongue is the same. With slow practice, it can unblock the meridians of the throat and vocal cords. Although the voice will be unclear, speaking will happen sooner or later. However, if you want me to make her speak in a short time, as a doctor, I refuse to do something that fundamentally harms the patient."

"So, you have the ability, but there will be severe side effects." Yan Aohan understood Zhu Yanyi’s implication.

"The side effects are huge. If not careful, she will become a true mute." Zhu Yanyi looked serious. "Temporary speech is actually forcing the body to use all its energy for speaking at once. The consequences of triggering this energy are unimaginable. It is like gathering all of a person’s vitality into one spot. Basically, those who trigger such sudden bursts of energy end up either dead or disabled. The throat and vocal cords are the same. Once triggered for temporary speech, the consequences are disastrous. I am a doctor. I will not do something like killing the goose to get the eggs."

Yan Aohan frowned slightly. He understood Zhu Yanyi’s meaning. Indeed, this approach was not suitable. However, he had his own selfish reasons. If he could not ensure safety here, he could not take Zhu Yanyi to the capital. Similarly, if safety was not guaranteed, Zhu Yanyi would not leave. Currently, the safety of Zhu Yanyi staying in Sicheng Town was becoming increasingly precarious. Danger could strike at any moment.

Zhang Haifeng remained silent for a while, then said, "How about tomorrow, when my brother wakes up, we ask for his opinion?" Zhang Haifeng naturally hoped his brother could recover slowly, but sometimes choices had to be made.

"Little Zhang, your brother is my patient. I do not allow you to do this." Zhu Yanyi looked at Zhang Haifeng very seriously.

Zhang Haifeng lowered his head, finished the porridge in his bowl in one gulp, and then said, "Ani, I do not want to lie to you. I naturally want my brother to be safe and sound. But I know what kind of person my brother is. As long as he has a breath left, he will find a way to complete his mission. His appearance in Sicheng Town is already abnormal. If we do not clarify the truth, the people here will not have peace. If my brother knows the truth, he will definitely choose to temporarily restore his voice. Even if the cost is that he can never speak again, he will never regret it. The men of the Zhang family have never retreated, nor do they do things they will regret." The implication was clear: if they did not do this, Zhang Haitao might regret it for the rest of his life.
