Chapter 10: The Function of the Jade Pendant
After the second treatment, Fang Chen seemed to have grasped a bit of understanding. Yesterday on the rooftop, after Jin Guang treated Old Man Wen, he also felt very weak, with no strength in his limbs
I understand...
Old Man Wen left his hospital room number and did not disturb the young man any further, taking his leave directly.
"Alright, alright, I won't make you worry anymore. In fact, I've come to terms with it; it's just esophageal cancer, right? What storms have I not weathered in my life? I refuse to believe that I cannot overcome this illness." With the confidence of having Fang Chen to treat him, Old Man Wen waved his hand vigorously, reminiscent of his feelings when he first entered the provincial committee.
This is the little daughter mentioned by Old Man Wen, Wen Feng
This feeling is ethereal, as if it is a voice emanating from the depths of the heart, a voice that compels Fang Chen to absorb the jade pendant
"Is that all the courage you have?" Old Man Wen glanced at the middle-aged man and said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything foolish again. You all focus on your work and don't mind this old man. Also, stop taking leave so often; this is a critical time for you. Whether you can make further progress depends on now... Do you understand?"
To be precise, he was not disturbed by the matter of being absorbed by the jade, for in these past few days, anything has been more overwhelming than this matter
As Fang Chen casually admired the jade pendant left by Old Man Wen, a strange feeling suddenly arose in his mind
At this moment, Old Man Wen also realized that yesterday he had thought Fang Chen was unable to get up in the end because he had dragged him along, which had caused him to be too exhausted.
In that case, is it true that the ability to heal with supernatural powers is related to one's own physical abilities
Hehe. Fang Chen smiled weakly and said: "Lord Wen, I might be discharged from the hospital tomorrow... Please tell me your ward number, and I will come over every day to help you with your treatment."
Did I really tell him that the jade stone hasn't eaten and is hungry
Is there a connection between the jade pendant and supernatural abilities? Absorption? How does one absorb it?
At this moment, Fang Chen finally understood that the jade pendant could help restore his supernatural abilities. After using his powers, he felt very fatigued, both physically and mentally.
"Young man, take a good rest... This kindness, the old man will remember." Old Man Wen patted Fang Chen's shoulder
"Little sister, there is no ... ..." At that moment, a middle-aged man, around thirty-five or thirty-six years old, rushed in from outside the door, but before he could finish his sentence, he saw Dad in the room
Then, as long as he absorbs the jade, this sense of fatigue will vanish, and he will be rejuvenated, his body filled with energy
If you truly think this way, then I can rest assured
Oh dear, Dad, you scared me to death. I thought you had gone to the rooftop again
This is a matter of losing face, so he will not speak the truth until the critical moment
Upon thinking of this, Fang Chen's mood lightened a little
Today, during the treatment again, he understood that it was not just fatigue from yesterday. His physical weakness is a result of his own illness.
It seems it should not be cheap... Fang Chen examined the Guanyin jade pendant, the texture and water color were beyond his understanding, but he felt it should be quite valuable. After all, this old man was an official, and jade pendants carried by officials cannot be inexpensive
To know, a watch belonging to "cousin" is "priceless", let alone jade.
Having come to this realization, Fang Chen, although very tired, felt quite happy, as if he had discovered a new continent, gaining a new understanding of his abilities.
This feeling is beyond words
So it turns out that supernatural abilities are replenished by jade? I can't believe it... Suddenly, Fang Chen snapped back to reality from that indescribable sensation, looked down, and saw that the jade pendant, which was originally the size of a thumb, had now "thinned" out a whole circle, reduced by almost one-eighth.
As the essence within the jade pendant entered his body, the golden light within Fang Chen began to operate automatically, resembling a large group of greedy children encountering candy, instantly rushing forward and devouring it all.
He simply feels that when it comes to treating illnesses, it is better not to publicize it too widely, especially since this is a hospital. It would not be good for the hospital to find out, and he is also unsure whether Fang Chen can actually cure him. If, in the future, the treatment is unsuccessful, he will certainly be the subject of gossip, with people saying things like, 'Director Wen is getting old and confused, actually asking an eighteen or nineteen-year-old young man to treat him.'
And today is no different.
As soon as the thought settled, Fang Chen immediately felt a different sensation. He felt as if the hand gripping the jade pendant was absorbing the essence within it, a feeling akin to peeling away layers of silk, flowing from the pendant into his palm
What will happen if Old Man Wen sees that the jade stone he gifted to himself has become thin, and he asks about it
Fang Chen took out the jade pendant left by Old Man Wen. He had only a superficial understanding of jade, but he was quite knowledgeable about pearls, as pearls are also a type of traditional Chinese medicine
Hehe, went out for a stroll, just a stroll. The old man did not speak the truth, but it was not his intention to deliberately conceal it from Fang Chen
Dad, could you please not make us worry? I have already invited experts in esophageal issues from abroad, and they will be here in a couple of days. Who says your illness is terminal? I don't see it that way; once those experts arrive, you will be fine. Wenfeng understands the terrifying nature of esophageal cancer, but she cannot say anything discouraging.
After absorbing the essence, Fang Chen's previously fatigued body suddenly felt as if it had been fully recharged, as if he had just eaten a hearty meal, brimming with energy.
Yesterday, she also received the news about her father's attempt to jump from the building; otherwise, she would not have hurried back from abroad today
Dad... where have you gone? Big brother went to the rooftop, I was almost about to call the police too
The reason for his disarray is that he does not know how to explain himself to Old Man Wen
Stop talking nonsense... How can I explain? How can I explain... Hmm, why should I explain to Lord Wen? This jade was given to me by him. Even if I say I lost it, what can he do to me? Besides, I am his savior; he wouldn't risk his life over a jade pendant, would he?
"Of course I think so, when has Dad ever lied to you?"
Superpowers are indeed beneficial, as they can cure certain terminal illnesses, but they are also quite limited. In such circumstances, it seems that one can only treat once a day; if done excessively, one might risk fainting or even dying from exhaustion.
Although Old Man Wen did not know the reason, he did not ask further; he simply kept Fang Chen in mind.
However, this Master Wen is quite generous... 500,000, hey... I didn't expect that the first patient I encountered after crossing over would allow me to earn so much money... and this piece of jade.
I understand, Dad
Fang Chen lay on the bed, feeling a wave of lamentation. If he were to feel this way after every treatment, how would he face others in the future
Line
When Old Man Wen returned to his high-ranking hospital ward, a woman in her mid-twenties was pouting and began to complain.
What the heck, the jade has actually been absorbed all around?" Fang Chen was in a state of confusion
Moreover, there are no significant side effects; it is just a bit of fatigue, and a good sleep should suffice to recover
