"Oh! What a good thing!"Bruno asked.

Verruckt took out a small brocade box from his briefcase as if he was offering a treasure!

When he opened it, there was a finger-long oval piece of wood inside. The wood was pure black, with clear texture and a faint peach scent! There are also many runes lightly engraved on it, which is very strange!

Bruno looked surprised and asked:

"Captain Feng, how did you get this!"

Verruckt explained: "Didn't I encircle and suppress the Wangyou Cult last week? When I rushed into their den, I found a group of believers worshiping at the gilded shrine. I thought there was some kind of statue inside, but when I opened it, it turned out to be this A piece of wood!”

"I didn't care before, but after what happened last night, I felt that it was impossible for the Wangyou Cult to enshrine an ordinary piece of wood. And the bureau didn't pay much attention to this thing, so I calculated it and brought it to you!"

Bruno rubbed the piece of wood and said: "This is called a hundred-year-old peach wood heart. It is difficult for a thousand peach trees to produce one piece. Look at the runes on it. The leader of the Wangyou Sect should want to use the power of incense to refine a magic weapon. !”

"It turns out that there is still such a way. Giving it to a miracle doctor can be considered a good use of things!"

Verruckt was very decisive. Even though he knew that the century-old mahogany heart was of extraordinary value, he gave it away without blinking an eye.

Bruno smiled slightly and said: "No matter how you say this, it is still evidence of guilt. You risked it and sent it to me. Please ask for something!"

Verruckt touched his head and said with a smile: "You really can't hide it from the miracle doctor!"

"When I wiped out the Wuyou Cult, five followers fell into a deep sleep! I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but then I couldn't wake it up no matter what method I tried! It's been five days now, and none of them have woken up!"

"Because of this matter, the patient's family members have been making trouble! The most troublesome thing is that one of these people is the mayor's son. This has attracted special attention from the above, and the mayor even visited six times in five days. I’m under a lot of pressure!”

"So you want to invite me to take a look!"Bruno said.

"As long as you can go there, it doesn't matter whether you can wake them up or not!"Verruckt's attitude was very low.

"Okay! I'll go with you, I won't let you down!"

Bruno accepted the century-old mahogany heart!

Peach wood is the Yang wood, which can ward off evil spirits and kill ghosts. Therefore, Taoist priests will use a peach wood sword when performing rituals.

The century-old mahogany heart is of extraordinary value. The Yang Qi contained in it is equivalent to the purple Qi of Bruno thirty morning meals. If swallowed, it can greatly neutralize the Yin Qi!

Only one day after I came back, this rare object was delivered to my door. It somehow confirmed the prophecy of Guru Kun that Lanjiang City is a place of vitality!

Moreover, he now belongs to a gangster family and it is very inconvenient to walk in modern society. He has to go to the police station to apply for an ID card.

I remember that he had just come down from the Kunlun Mountains and originally planned to take the high-speed train home. Unfortunately, he could not buy a ticket without an ID card, so he had to take a bus and trek through mountains and rivers on foot. It was very sad!

After a few words with Xenia, Bruno left Qingye Hall!

Verruckt drove the car himself and took Bruno on the road. I have to say that driving a police car is smooth, and no car dares to overtake me on the road! Those road rage drivers behave like grandchildren and give way!

On the way, Verruckt started talking:

"Miracle Doctor Ye, I have a question. You should be the grandson of Qingye Doctor, who was famous in Lanjiang City twenty years ago, right?"

"Oh! You know my grandfather!"Bruno said in surprise.

Verruckt smiled and said: "Your grandfather was a miracle doctor sought after by the upper class back then, and I was just a small-time policeman. I never had the chance to know each other, but we have some intersections."

"Because in an era when medical treatment was scarce, your grandfather contributed many folk remedies that benefited the public, and I was one of the beneficiaries! I am still drinking the tea for improving eyesight and clearing the liver."

"Yeah! That's a good recipe, suitable for people who like to smoke and drink!"Bruno smiled slightly. He was still very happy that there were still people in the world who remembered his grandfather's achievements!

The atmosphere was harmonious, and the two started chatting, becoming more and more familiar with each other.

suddenly!

Verruckt suddenly said: "Doctor Ye, there is something I don't know whether I should say or not!"

"Don't be so angry, just say it if you have something to say!"Bruno said.

Hearing this, Verruckt dropped his smile and lowered his voice: "There may be something fishy about the death of the old miracle doctor."

"You have to know that the old miracle doctor has excellent medical skills and specializes in traditional Chinese medicine. How could he suddenly die of a cerebral hemorrhage at the age of sixty? Anyway, I didn't believe it, so I secretly used my power to investigate the case, but I encountered a lot of resistance. , but I still can’t figure out where the resistance comes from.”

Bruno eyes turned cold!

Of course he understands that his grandfather’s death is full of suspicion! Grandpa is not only a miracle doctor, but also an ancient warrior with unique skills. Even if he is a hundred years old, he can walk like flying and carry large rocks on his shoulders. How could he die suddenly at the age of sixty!

If he hadn't been too busy taking care of himself due to the imbalance of yin and yang, he would definitely have thoroughly investigated what happened back then!

Bruno solemnly said: "Captain Feng is serious! Don't call me a miracle doctor in the future. It's awkward! After all, I haven't inherited one tenth of my grandfather's medical skills. From now on, you can call me Bruno, Brother Ye, or Little Brother Ye. is allowed!"

"Hey! You are a capable person, how can you call me too low? I will call you Mr. Ye from now on!"Verruckt thought for a while and came up with an appropriate title.

Bruno nodded!

The two chatted for a while, and the hospital arrived!

Park the car!

Verruckt took Bruno to the high-end ward on the twelfth floor.

Through the glass window, Bruno saw the situation inside. On five hospital beds, there were patients in deep sleep, with respirators hanging from their mouths and multiple wires attached to their bodies. The heart rate machine next to them was screaming and drawing lines!

The two of them are about to enter!

A figure stopped in front of him.

When Feng Jinzhong saw the person coming, he couldn't help but get angry, "Tenebris, what are you doing! Didn't you see that I brought a doctor with me? Are you going in to treat the patient?"

Tenebris stretched out his collar and said with a smile:

"Captain Feng, don't be so angry! According to police regulations, if you want to enter the intensive care unit, you need the approval of the attending doctor. After all, these patients were in a coma for five days and relied on glucose to hang on. Their lives and health are very fragile. If there are people walking around randomly, who can be responsible for worsening the patient's condition?"

"You..."Verruckt was holding a fire in his chest, but he couldn't let it out!

"Mr. Ye, let's go report it!"Verruckt calmed down and decided to make one more trip.

Bruno nodded, wondering in his heart that someone could actually defeat Captain Feng. He had to take a closer look.

This man named Tenebris is not tall, with a round face and small eyes. According to the Prime Minister, this kind of eyes is called rat eyes, which not only symbolizes intelligence and cleverness, but also indicates cunning and shortsightedness.

His forehead, which is the Guan Lu Palace, is slightly raised, lingering with a trace of purple energy. Purple means expensive! It shows that he has noble people to help him and his official career is prosperous!

And his slave palace, which is the chin, is very round, indicating that he always has many subordinates. It's a pity that there are two vertical lines on both sides, which means that he is mean and harsh on his subordinates, and one day the members of the congregation will betray him!

Bruno had a general understanding of this person, so he asked:

"Captain Feng, who is this person? Why do I feel that he is deliberately making things difficult? Could it be that the official is bigger than you!"

Verruckt sighed, shook his head and said: "I am the captain of the criminal police brigade, and he is the captain of the criminal police squadron. Logically speaking, I am his boss. Unfortunately, he is very tough behind the scenes, tough enough to challenge me!"

"Moreover, I have been mired in several major cases recently, and I am exhausted mentally and physically. I wanted to make a great contribution by annihilating the Wangyou Cult, but when I encountered this case, I became even more stressed! And he has solved several serious cases recently, and he has been in the limelight. Zhengsheng, the higher-ups also intend to promote him to captain!"

Bruno is thoughtful!

No wonder Verruckt asked him to take action. Although he showed his skills, he was not sure whether he could cure the patient. He was obviously ill and sought medical treatment in a hurry, eager to make meritorious deeds and secure his position!

The two of them came to the attending doctor's office. The so-called report was to sign! The captain of the criminal police brigade came to the door in person, and the attending doctor didn't dare to neglect, so he immediately wrote a note.

The two of them moved to the ward again!

Just as he was about to go in, he was stopped by Tenebris again!

Verruckt's anger roared, and Lao Gao ran away!

"Tenebris, what are you doing? Are you deliberately looking for trouble? You are the boss and I am the boss! Why don't you get out of my way!"

Tenebris said disapprovingly: "Captain, it's time to control your temper!"

"I'm just reminding you that the high-end ward is a sterile environment. You need to sterilize and disinfect before you come in. The patient is dying now. If you bring any germs in, you will be in trouble!"
