Chapter 724 - Making desperate efforts like giving medicine to a dead horse (2/2)
One of the doctors went outside and told them. A short time later, Guan Xilin walked in.
“Feng Jiu, do you need my help?” Guan Xilin asked. When he approached the bedside, his eyes skimmed over Teacher Lu in pa.s.sing and then his gaze fell on Feng Jiu.
Feng Jiu looked up at him and smiled. “Big Brother, you have a very important task. When I’m performing the surgery, remember to wipe my sweat. Never let the sweat drop.”
“No problem,” Guan Xilin answered with a smile.
The room in the teaching office was sealed. Everything inside was covered. People outside only knew that a student named Feng Jiu was treating Teacher Lu, but they didn’t know anything about the treatment.
The headmaster and the deputy headmaster, who kept watch outside, looked at each other with tension and worry.
Even if they had heard Ghost Doctor’s great name for a long time, they didn’t have firsthand knowledge of his medical expertise. They couldn’t put down their worry completely at this time. Let alone cure this kind of thing, no doctors could guarantee to remedy all ills. What would happen to Teacher Lu then? They could only see the results after the treatment was done.
“Is that Feng Jiu really good at medicine? Why would the headmaster and others trust him?”

It wasn’t until eight hours later that the teaching office’s door finally opened…
