Castle of Black Iron 1824 Cancer

In the evening, Tigerback Town was full of drinkers accompanied by whistling. However, in the daytime, Tigerback Town was also very boisterous.

Those doctors who couldn't become Bian Heng's disciples and those patients stayed together for sure. 

As for those doctors, now that they couldn't go up the hill for the time being, they preferred to help those patients and make some money so as to increase their medical skills and experience.

As for those patients, now that they couldn't get medical treatment from Bian Heng, they didn't refuse to see other doctors in Tigerback Town. Although there was not such a saying that two heads were better than one in Motian Realm, the common wisdom of doctors would bring confidence to patients more or less. 

Therefore, a huge and vigorous medical service industry came into being across Tigerback Town besides so many inns. 

There were many community clinics in the town. If those doctors wanted to diagnose patients, they could stay in any community clinic for free. Those patients could also causally choose clinics for medical treatment.

In community clinics, doctors and patients could move freely. Doctors could diagnose patients in any clinic. Patients could also choose their patients at their own will. The one who opened the clinics only asked for some room fee and tea fee from doctors. 

In Tigerback Town, many counters in clinics were shared by more than one doctors. These doctors were all good friends. In normal times, they discussed medical skills. When they had patients, they would diagnose patients together. If they met any difficult and rare symptoms, they would communicate with each other for a possible solution.

In the daytime, the atmosphere in Tigerback Town was pretty good. Although Bian Heng didn't leave Tigerback Mountain, Bian Heng's disciples would go downhill by s.h.i.+fts and communicate with the doctors there about the symptoms and solutions. Zhang Tie felt that Tigerback Mountain and Tigerback Town were like a spontaneous university and an academy with a strong learning atmosphere respectively that gathered doctors from the other regions of Motian Realm, various patients and odd diseases. Bian Heng the No. 1 doctor of Motian Realm was like a president of the university. 

Even those people that came to learn medical science in Tigerback Town couldn't enter Tigerback Mountain, as long as they learned diligently in Tigerback Town for a few years through communication with people of their kind and diagnosing patients, they could definitely acquire more knowledge here than anywhere else.

As for many patients here, even though they couldn't enter Tigerback Mountain, they might also meet doctors who could cure their diseases; especially some odd diseases which would be known by all the doctors in the town in a couple of days. Through communication and study, these doctors might get wise thoughts in their mind.

After taking a look around Tigerback Town, Zhang Tie even doubted that this atmosphere was what Bian Heng had expected. Although being eccentric, even a bit ruthless, Bian Heng was actually kind-hearted. Without Bian Heng's acquiescence, his disciples might not come to Tigerback Town to diagnose patients or communicate with doctors by s.h.i.+fts at all.

...

As Zhang Tie walked on the street and enjoyed the boisterous scene in the community clinics, he looked for the uran carriage of Tang Mei. Meanwhile, he was vigilant about dubious people in the town——Since Versatile Deon Emperor might know that he had come to Tigerback Mountain for medical treatment, Zhang Tie would never be careless about such a potential threat.

Even now, Zhang Tie still couldn't confirm whether Versatile Demon Emperor had a.s.signed people here to kill him. Meanwhile, he didn't know whether the powerful defensive system of the city wall of Emperor NvWa City could discover the puppets being controlled by Golden-Soul Runed Virus. Therefore, Zhang Tie could only stay vigilant. 

Zhang Tie estimated that Versatile Demon Emperor must a.s.sign the heads of the four branches of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace if possible as others couldn't kill Zhang Tie at all. Therefore, Zhang Tie only needed to pay attention to sage-level knights near Tigerback Mountain.

...

After traveling around Tigerback Town for quite a while, Zhang Tie didn't see any suspect; however, he found the uran carriage of Tang Mei in the stable outside the inn Safecome. 

Zhang Tie was sure Tang Mei was inside. After taking a look at the inn, Zhang Tie was going to enter it. Unexpectedly, at the gate, Zhang Tie saw Aunt Wu coming out with a bamboo basket.

"Aunt Wu, what a coincidence! Do you live here?"

"Ah, Master Jin!" Aunt Wu became shortly stunned at the sight of Zhang Tie. Closely after that, Aunt Wu glanced at Zhang Tie's expensive robe; she became vigilant at once as she watched Zhang Tie as if he was a thief, "Master Jin, do you live nearby?"

Of course, Zhang Tie didn't live nearby. Meanwhile, he understood Aunt Wu's meaning——if you don't live nearby, what's your purpose here?

"Ahem, ahem... I don't live nearby. I'm especially here for Miss Tang!"

Aunt Wu's face turned cold at a stroke as she glanced at Zhang Tie from head to toe, saying coldly, "Miss Tang has left here just now. I'm going to buy food ingredients to cook a meal for her. Master, you'd better go back. You should know that Miss Tang has come here for medical treatment. She's physically unwell. Therefore, she doesn't receive any guests for the sake of her health. Master, please don't disturb Miss Bai."

Zhang Tie said with a smile, "If Miss Tang is not here, Aunt Wu also works!"

After hearing Zhang Tie's words, Aunt Wu's face flushed immediately out of fury as she lifted her bamboo basket and threw it onto Zhang Tie's head, revealing her vixenish temperament as a middle-aged woman. "Jerk, how dare you! When this mother fed someone, you were still in split pants. Go die..." 

Aunt Wu immediately started to beat Zhang Tie by her bamboo basket at the gate of the inn.

Zhang Tie hurriedly dodged her.

Watching Aunt Wu's angry look, Zhang Tie felt muddle-headed. 'What have I done to her? Does she think that I want to... f*ck!'

Aunt Wu's movements aroused the attention of people on the roadside at once.

"Aunt Wu, you must have misunderstood me. I've got something to ask you..." Zhang Tie urged as he grasped Aunt Wu's bamboo basket.

After struggling a short while in vain, Aunt Wu watched Zhang Tie dubiously as she asked in an icy tone, "What do you want to ask..."

After taking a look around, Zhang Tie drew Aunt Wu to one side with a bamboo basket between them, saying, "I met Uncle Guan at the foot of Tigerback Mountain yesterday. However, Uncle Guan didn't seem too smooth yesterday. I want to ask about the disease of Miss Tang!"

Aunt Wu said with an unbelievable look, "It's none of your business. Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking about. You could never get any message about Miss Tang from me. You'd better give up..."

"After Uncle Guan left Tigerback Mountain yesterday, I found a job there. I could see Bian Heng. I just want to know Miss Tang's disease. If possible, I could ask Bian Heng about the medical treatment of Miss Tang's disease. Perhaps, Bian Heng's brief answer could safe Miss Tang..."

Aunt Wu became petrified as her face turned red and pale alternately. However, she was still suspicious about that. "You've found a job in Tigerback Mountain, is that true?"

"Of course!"

"But I heard all those who could enter Tigerback Mountain are elites, even the ones that do odd jobs there!" Aunt Wu asked Zhang Tie immediately vigilantly. 

"I don't have any job on the mountain; precisely, I'm just responsible for taking care of the fis.h.i.+ng ground. I couldn't even match those who do odd jobs in the mountain. I don't learn medical science; nor do I have any ability. Look at my clothes, it's delivered by the general butler of the mountain..." Zhang Tie said as he pointed at his clothes.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

Aunt Wu finally believed in it as she became shameless at a stroke, "I'm sorry. Master Jin. Just now, I thought you were like those people before. Please forgive me... could you really see Bian Heng?"

"Hmm, I've already seen him yesterday. But it's rare. It depends. Bian Heng's temperament is a bit eccentric. I think I might get a chance to talk to him if I stay long in the mountain..."

Aunt Wu finally relaxed her vigilance as she sighed gloomily. "Miss is too poor. She's suffering from cancer. When she was young, she looked fine. However, after 18 years, her disease gradually aggravated. In the beginning, family members thought that it was just a common disease; later on, after seeing many doctors, we found out that she's suffering from cancer. All the doctors said that she wouldn't survive long. G.o.d really envies her good look and would take her away. Miss is kind since young. She doesn't even kill an ant. She's always kind-hearted for the sake of others. How could she suffer from such a severe disease..."

Aunt Wu said with a sorrowful look as her eyes turned a bit wet...

'Cancer?' It was Zhang Tie's first time to hear such a disease. With a slight frown, Zhang Tie asked, "I wonder about her symptoms when the disease shows effect..."

"When this cancer shows effect, Miss would feel fatigued all over and cough heavily. It would show effect almost once every day routinely. Previously, it lasted 20 minutes; recently, it has started to last longer and longer..."

"Hmm, I know. When I get an opportunity, I will ask Bian Heng about the medical treatment for Miss Tang!"

"Thank you so much, Master Jin!" Aunt Wu watched Zhang Tie appreciatively. Just now, she misunderstood Zhang Tie's intention. Now, she found that Zhang Tie was really just here for asking about the disease of Tang Mei. Nothing else! Therefore, aunt Wu then completely changed her feeling about Zhang Tie.

"Will Miss Tang leave Tigerback Town right now?"

"No, after leaving Tigerback Town, Miss will not have any hope anymore. Therefore, we would live here for long. In Tigerback Town, even if we couldn't see Bian Heng, we could also see other doctors. Maybe the other doctors could save her. We've already rented a courtyard in this inn..."

"Fine, I will inform you when I get some good news..." Zhang Tie said as he intended to leave.

"Ah, Master Jin, are you really going to leave? How about waiting here for a short while? I will buy some food ingredients to cook a meal. I'm afraid Miss will come back soon. Master Jin... just stay and have a meal with us..." Aunt Wu said as she watched Zhang Tie bashfully.

"Sorry to disturb you, Aunt Wu, I gotta get going..." Zhang Tie said as he waved his hand towards her, leaving Aunt Wu standing there alone, watching his back in a daze.

After a while, Aunt Wu slowly let out a sigh as she walked towards the nearby market with a bamboo basket...
