Chapter 1118: Chapter 1145: Back from the Dead 4
The Second Elder said with a pale face, "The examination results are out, and whether we believe it or not, we have to accept it. Even though I have doubts, the evidence compels me to believe."
"Who said the examination is the truth?" Nianyang laughed cynically, "The elder’s illness was erratic, are we sure he followed the medical advice when taking the medicine? Who knows what happened in between? How can we prove it was the Third Elder’s medicine that caused the elder’s death?"
The First and Second Elders were taken aback, and Nianyang stood up, "Let’s go take a look together. If the Third Elder is truly at fault, we should apologize. If not, we must seek justice. We can’t just be trampled on without reason."
The First and Second Elders gritted their teeth, quickly arranged for a car, and prepared to set off. However, on the way to the Ouyang Family, Nianyang called his uncle, who used his connections to successfully get in touch with the Third Elder.
Nianyang clarified the symptoms and prescriptions over the phone, and the Third Elder responded wearily, "Sect Leader Chu, I’m sure the medicine I prescribed had no issues. The old lady was in poor health, constantly consuming various tonics, her pulse was deep, soft, and slippery. It’s clear she suffered from cold pathogenic energy affecting her heart meridian and had insufficient vital energy and blood. I prescribed the ’Great Green Dragon Decoction’ following the formula, which is impossible to cause death."
The ’Great Green Dragon Decoction’ is derived from the Thousand Gold Formula, and the composition and dosage of the herbs are strictly proportioned, tailored to the old lady’s condition.
Indeed, the Third Elder is correct; this should not have caused the old lady’s death.
Clearly, there’s more to the situation.
Nianyang said, "Third Elder, if what you said is true, then the root of this issue does not lie with you. I will ensure justice is served."
After hanging up, both the First and Second Elders felt more confident.
If the Third Elder is not the problem, then the issue must lie with the patient herself.
Soon, they arrived at the entrance of the Ouyang Family residence, which was a courtyard-style mansion with a sense of history, paved with slate tiles and surrounded by stone and shingles, exuding a unique charm.
However, the mansion inside and out had been arranged for a memorial service.
White banners fluttered in the air, and a large wreath was hung on a stone lion not far away.
Many people were coming and going to pay their respects, and two young men in white stood at the entrance, checking the condolence notes of those entering.
Nianyang approached empty-handed and was unceremoniously blocked by the people at the door, "No invitation, unrelated persons cannot enter and disturb the old lady’s peace."
Nianyang said directly, "Please inform them that I am from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Family..."
"Traditional Chinese Medicine Family!" The expressions of the two young men changed at once, and they glared at Nianyang,
"So you’re from the quack doctor’s house that caused death, the Traditional Chinese Medicine Family. Not a single decent one among you. You caused the death of our old lady and dare to come here. You’re not welcome."
The First Elder spoke with a hostile tone, "Our Traditional Chinese Medicine Family has been a reputable name for decades, how dare you smear us with slander?"
"I spit on you, old fellow," one of the young men said viciously, "Honorable name, huh? I think you’re experts at causing deaths. Let me tell you, the master has instructed us that anyone from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Family is an enemy of our Ouyang Family. Today is for the old lady’s memorial; we don’t want trouble. You better leave and we’ll deal with you properly tomorrow!"
