Inside the Potion House.

Liu Zixuan was sitting on a chair, watching the TV, where the host was discussing the development of the disease in Ghost Wood City.

Liu Zixuan was baffled, wondering how he could find Celestial Thunder!

Even if he held a bowl of medicine waiting for a thunderstrike, it would have to be during a thunderstorm, and today the sky was clear, not a cloud in sight, and the heavens weren't cooperating!

But thinking back, if someone knew Liu Zixuan's thoughts, they would probably be stunned!

Those who had done bad things or made promises they couldn't keep would hope there wouldn't be thunderstorms for fear of being struck dead!

But Liu Zixuan was different; he actually hoped for a thunderstorm to strike him!

Truly, Liu the Handsome is one of a kind!

While he was pondering privately, someone walked in from outside.

"Little Miracle Doctor, you still need an old man like me?" the elderly man walked in from outside with a hearty laugh.

Liu Zixuan promptly stood up and smiled, "Elder Wei, what brings you here today?"

"I suppose you should know the current situation in Ghost Wood City by now!" Elder Wei sat down and said.

Liu Zixuan pointed at the TV: "Just watched it. Has the hospital found a solution yet?"

"If they had, I wouldn't be visiting you specially."

Elder Wei laughed awkwardly, perhaps because he specifically sought Liu Zixuan's help for the case of Tail Flower's disease. If this got out, the entire medical community of Ghost Wood City would be shocked!

After all, Elder Wei was a towering figure in the medical community of Ghost Wood City. It was puzzling why he would lower himself to seek a little-known National Doctor!

Liu Zixuan scratched his head, "Elder Wei, you are a master, while I'm just a small person. I wouldn't dare!"

"Little Miracle Doctor, I'll get straight to the point: according to the path of National Doctors, are you familiar with this disease?" Elder Wei asked.

Being an old fox with half a lifetime of experience, his intuition was sharp. From the moment he entered, he noticed that Liu Zixuan did not wear the expression of being at a complete loss.

Liu Zixuan shrugged his shoulders, "You might have heard of Tail Flower, right?"

"Hiss!"

Elder Wei gasped, "Are you referring to the strange illness that wiped out hundreds of people overnight in Witch Country a century ago?"

"Exactly, the current flu outbreak in Ghost Wood City is actually Tail Flower Disease."

"Why didn't I think of that!" Elder Wei pinched his forehead, "I previously thought it was somewhat similar to smallpox or chickenpox. If that's the case, it seems Ghost Wood City cannot escape this disaster!"

"To be honest, earlier years our Star Sea Medical Association also set up an expert group to study Tail Flower Disease. At that time, I was just a student in the group, and after several years of research, we only came to one conclusion without finding a treatment method!"

"What conclusion?" Liu Zixuan suddenly asked.

"According to the data from back then, the contagion of Tail Flower Flu is not the same as the pathogen of smallpox. We even went to Witch Country to study what they often consumed but achieved nothing. Finally, we concluded that this virus is likely man-made!"

Upon hearing Elder Wei's words, Liu Zixuan suddenly had a moment of clarity.

He was just saying, if there's a disease, there has to be a pathogen. But he struggled to understand how the little girl, who had only eaten ordinary food, could suddenly fall ill!

If it's man-made, then it makes sense!

Elder Wei asked, "But now isn't the time to delve into whether it's man-made. Even if it were, it's a disease, not a poison. There's no cure, Little Miracle Doctor. Do you have a method of treatment?"

"I do." Liu Zixuan nodded.

"Really!" Elder Wei thought to himself, he had come to the right person today!

"However... the medicinal lead is very hard to get." Liu Zixuan then told Elder Wei about the Celestial Thunder.

Elder Wei immediately furrowed his brow, "That really is quite difficult. Now we have the prescription but can't treat the disease, which is truly frustrating!"

"Yes, I've been pondering this matter all morning." Liu Zixuan spread his hands.

"Can't something else be used as a substitute? I remember in the path of National Doctors, there's a herb called Thunderstruck Wood! It surely contains the substance you're talking about." Elder Wei said.

Liu Zixuan shook his head, "Thunderstruck Wood is indeed formed related to Celestial Thunder, but we all know eighty percent of what's on the market is fake. Even if it's genuine, it's likely been preserved for so long that the medicinal substance inside might no longer exist or be too little to be effective."

"Is there nothing else that contains this substance?" Elder Wei asked with difficulty.

Anything else containing this substance...

Liu Zixuan muttered this softly and his eyes suddenly lit up!

There is!

He slapped his forehead, "How could I forget that thing!"

"What is it?" Elder Wei asked urgently.

"In the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles, there's a Silver Needle called the Profound Thunder Needle!" Liu Zixuan smiled.

"But aren't the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles the treasures of the National Doctors? To be honest, I've been practicing medicine for decades, and I've never seen them." Elder Wei shook his head, feeling that this was even less realistic than holding a bowl of medicine waiting for a thunderstrike!

But Liu Zixuan shook his head; others might not know the Ghost Gate Needle, but he knew them all!

Moreover, he knew where the Profound Thunder Needle was!

It's in Huanyun Mountain, right behind Bachelor Village in the mountains!

Earlier, due to various matters, he hadn't had the time to retrieve it, but now, at this critical juncture, it was time to get that Silver Needle back!

"You know?" Elder Wei asked excitedly.

"Yes, I will set off immediately to get the Profound Thunder Needle, but in the meantime, Elder Wei, you have to do one thing." Liu Zixuan said meaningfully.

"What is it?"

"You just said that years ago, the expert group concluded that Tail Flower Disease was likely man-made. Hence, this outbreak of Tail Flower Flu in Ghost Wood City surely isn't that simple either."

Liu Zixuan took a deep breath and continued, "So we need to test the waters. If it truly is man-made, we will find out. If not, gathering all the doctors and teaching them how to treat it would kill two birds with one stone!"

"You mean, under the guise of a consultation, gather all the doctors in Ghost Wood City?"

"Exactly."

"But won't that have no effect? What if it is man-made but not by the doctors?" Elder Wei tentatively asked, "Little Miracle Doctor, surely you already have a suspect?"

Liu Zixuan shook his head, "Hard to say, but doing this has no downside. Even if those people didn't do it, once I have the Profound Thunder Needle, I can teach them how to treat this disease. It won't delay anything!"

Truthfully, Liu Zixuan had his suspicions about someone, but... he just didn't have the evidence yet!
