Chapter 1248: Chapter 1248

Zhang Yang pondered for a moment and then nodded to Jin Tuantuan, saying, “Since we’re already here, how can we not go in and take a look?”

Jin Tuantuan agreed with a sound and then said to the butler, “Open the door.”

The butler dutifully obeyed immediately, and after opening the door, Jin Tuantuan and Zhang Yang walked in, with the butler following behind.

Once inside, the room appeared to be in disarray.

The butler explained, “Uncle Long started to become unusually irritable since last night.”

“He began smashing things everywhere, and then the symptoms grew worse. By this morning, he seemed to start hallucinating, repeatedly shouting various names.”

“Many of these names belonged to Uncle Long’s old enemies, and some of them were even dead.”

“In short, Uncle Long’s current situation is very dire, but he’s not constantly mad; there are also brief periods of clarity.”

Jin Tuantuan suddenly understood and said, “In that case, he must have called me while he was lucid, asking me to come over.”

The butler nodded, “That should be right. I wasn’t here when Uncle Long called you, so I didn’t know you two were coming, and that’s why there was some misunderstanding. Fortunately, Uncle Long regained clarity for a moment just now and told me.”

The butler explained the situation once again.

After all, the butler was aware that Uncle Long’s request for Zhang Yang and Jin Tuantuan to come must be related to his current symptoms and condition.

So, he must not offend them, and any unpleasant incidents must be resolved quickly.

Jin Tuantuan neither confirmed nor denied. At this moment, Zhang Yang asked, “Have you calculated the approximate times of Uncle Long’s lucid periods and the frequency of occurrence? Is there any pattern?”

The butler nodded, looking at Zhang Yang with a hint of admiration. As expected of a professional doctor, even though he is a gynecologist, he seems formidable and asked a key question right off the bat.

“To answer Mr. Zhang Yang, I’ve kept records of both Uncle Long’s mad and lucid periods.”

“Since last night, he becomes abnormal almost every two hours.”

But since this morning, Uncle Long’s lucid periods have gotten shorter, and now he goes mad in less than an hour.

Additionally, the intensity of his madness is much more severe than last night.

The butler’s face showed concern as he described the situation.

If things continue like this, their Uncle Long may completely lose his sanity and never regain it again.

But none of the doctors here could do anything, and even the experts they brought overnight were of no help.

While they were talking, Uncle Long suddenly began to roar.

“Zhang Yang, Jin Tuantuan, you’ll both fall into my hands one day, hahaha…”

“You two used to treat me badly, and now you plead for mercy, but it’s too late.”

Hearing Uncle Long’s nonsense, the butler’s face changed dramatically, and he quickly looked at Zhang Yang and Jin Tuantuan.

Seeing both Jin Tuantuan and Zhang Yang looking equally displeased, the butler was startled.

Silently anxious, he wondered why Uncle Long would suddenly bring up Zhang Yang and Jin Tuantuan at this moment.

Jin Tuantuan sneered, “It seems like we shouldn’t have come here, it feels quite dangerous.”

“Zhang Yang, let’s go.”

Zhang Yang chuckled, then nodded in agreement, “Then let’s go, indeed we shouldn’t have come. Otherwise, if we get caught later, it’s not going to end well for us.”

Hearing this, the butler became extremely anxious, almost kneeling down to Zhang Yang and Jin Tuantuan.

He continually pleaded with them, “Mr. Zhang Yang, Miss Jin, you two are magnanimous, please don’t hold this against Uncle Long, he’s not in his right mind.”

No sooner had he spoken than Uncle Long’s hoarse voice came through.

“Who are you calling not in their right mind?”

The butler’s mouth fell open as he incredulously turned back to look at Uncle Long. Could it be a coincidence that he regained clarity just at this moment, why not earlier?

The butler’s expression was filled with astonishment, and Zhang Yang and Jin Tuantuan also turned their eyes to Uncle Long.

Seeing the trio’s expressions, Uncle Long was taken aback and asked Zhang Yang and Jin Tuantuan, “Why are you two looking at me like that?”

Then he said to the butler, “Release me quickly, I should be fine for now. Also, what happened just now?”

The butler instinctively glanced at Zhang Yang and Jin Tuantuan.

Zhang Yang smiled and said, “Why are you hesitating? Go ahead and tell your boss what just happened.”

The butler gave a wry smile, then leaned toward Uncle Long’s ear and whispered a few words. Uncle Long’s face changed several times, but soon returned to normal.

“Honestly, you two must be laughing at me.”

“I’ll prepare some gifts later, and won’t say much in explanation. I suppose you both left quite the impression on my mind with previous encounters.”

Uncle Long was rather forthright, and after some words of apology, it was considered over.

Zhang Yang didn’t hold it against Uncle Long, after all, what Uncle Long said was true.

Zhang Yang directly asked, “Is this adverse reaction the result of consuming the Soul Resurrection Grass?”

Uncle Long’s face turned somewhat pale with a mix of fear, predominantly looking tense and anxious.

“That should be right. I never had these symptoms before, and I didn’t expect that swallowing the Soul Resurrection Grass would have such a reaction.”

“I don’t know what to do now, Zhang Yang. I know your medical skills are exceptional, please check for me. If a cure is possible, I’ll reward you handsomely.”

Zhang Yang waved it off, “Let’s not talk about that now. Besides this reaction, do you feel anything else? Swallowing this thing can’t have zero benefits, can it?”

Uncle Long gave a wry smile, “Benefits? I honestly can’t tell right now.”

“To be frank with you, I just thought that swallowing this might prolong life, allowing me to live for decades longer.”

“Of course, if it could make me stronger, that would be even better.”

Zhang Yang frowned slightly, unsure of how much truth was in Uncle Long’s words.

“Do you really feel nothing at all? You shouldn’t hide anything from me, especially since I’m treating you right now. If you hide anything, I’m afraid I won’t be able to help, since your situation is too bizarre, it’s probably beyond what an ordinary doctor can handle.”

Upon hearing Zhang Yang’s words, Uncle Long immediately fell into thought, and after a moment said to Zhang Yang, “Now that you mention it, I’ve noticed that just before each episode of madness, the area around my Dantian starts to heat up…”
