Chapter 1769 The ancient and mysterious family

The Alps were covered in snow.

A Valley was covered in mist, and the sun could not be seen.

The ancient castle in the Middle Ages symbolized tradition and power. However, Gu Jiu had deliberately left it behind as evidence to record the passage of time and the continuation of the family.

Inside the castle, it was comparable to a luxurious top – Class seven – Star hotel.

In the bedroom on the third floor, the curtains were drawn tightly.

A scrawny “person” was lying on the grey velvet bed sheet.

His hair was thin, but it was neatly combed, giving off a sense of order.

His face was frighteningly pale. However, her face was full of scars. Some of them were old scars, and there were also a few blisters and fresh ulcers.

The angle of the lips was very strange. The upper lip was very upturned, and the gums were shriveled. The four canine teeth were sharp and long, much longer than the rest.

In his black silk pajamas, the old man was holding the bed sheet with both hands. The joints of his fingers were stiff. Rather than saying that they were human hands, it was more appropriate to say that they were some kind of animal’s hands.

It just didn’t have that much hair.

There was an IV stand at the head of the bed, and a bag of full blood hung on it.

Full blood had been phased out in the country more than a decade ago and had become component blood. If Zheng Ren was here, he would be very curious about the last time he saw full blood.

A young man was sitting at the head of the bed. He looked so much like the old man lying on the bed, except that there were no blisters or festering on his face. His teeth were not as sharp as the old man’s four teeth.

And he was full of energy, in sharp contrast to the dying old man on the bed.

“Father, the replies from Massachusetts, Hopkins, and Maio are not optimistic.” The young man was holding some paper in his hand. His fingers were a little deformed, so they were very eye – catching when they fell on the white paper.

“They’re all useless. ” The old man shook his head and said,”we’re investing three billion US dollars a year, but there’s no progress. It’s been more than a hundred years, but there hasn’t been any good news. “

He paused for a moment, sighed, and said,””Forget it, I’m used to it.”

“I’ll go and urge them again,”the young man said.

“It’s no use. You should go out as little as possible. The damn ultraviolet rays really give me a headache.” The old man said,”I’m probably going to end my mission soon and meet my ancestors. You’ll be in charge of everything after this. You’ve done well in the past 50 years and are a suitable candidate. Unfortunately, it’s not easy to be in charge of a large family. “

“Father, you must maintain an optimistic attitude.” The young man, whose age was a mystery, didn’t continue the patriarch’s words. Instead, he waved the paper in his hand and said,””Massachusetts General Hospital has recently chosen their third tenured professor. Their suggestion is to let this newly promoted tenured professor diagnose and treat you.”

“Who did those conservative little guys find? Henry? No, Henry’s in London, and he’s been here to take a look, but he can’t do anything. ” The old man only guessed one name, and he fell silent.

This was the nature of the special body of the family. When it brought him endless benefits, it would also have some disadvantages.

However, these benefits definitely did not include immortality.

His body had endured for many, many years, and finally could not take it anymore.

Even though his family had been continuously acquiring, building, and holding shares in hospitals all over the world for hundreds of years, he was still a patient. The blood banks in Europe and the United States were almost open for them, but blood transfusion and oral blood were not enough to let him live for another hundred years.

“Money can buy blood, but it can’t buy life.” The old man said a proverb from his hometown, but he was interrupted by the young man.”Father, modern technology is advancing very fast. You have to keep your confidence.”

“Confidence?” The old man’s voice was a little muffled, and his expression was a little slow. He was far less lively than the young man sitting next to him.

“He’s an interesting young man. He’s not even thirty years old.”

“Those Massachusetts kids are finally willing to lower their proud heads and admit that someone is better than them?” After the old man said a few words, his energy was exhausted, and his voice became more and more muffled.

The young man picked up a cup beside him. The cup was filled with a bright red liquid, and the smell of blood seemed to be full of vitality.

The old man drank the red liquid in the cup, but he did not recover his strength as quickly as before. He only felt a little better.

“What an interesting young man. Dr. Mehal has nominated him for this year’s Nobel medical award, but I refuse.” “According to the rules you set ten years after the end of World War II, surgery is not good for our bodies,” the young man said. On the other hand, only basic research can discover and solve problems. This is a kind of guidance. “

After the old man finished drinking the bright red liquid with the smell of blood, he closed his eyes and said nothing.

His deformed fingers trembled more and more. His eyes slowly closed, but his eyelids kept moving.

After nearly three minutes, he let out a long breath and said,””What is that little fellow, Mehar, thinking?”

“He has always been against the fact that clinical skills can’t win the Nobel Prize, but just like you said, even after investing billions of dollars every year and continuing for hundreds of years, there’s still no hope.” “He’s already old,”the young man said,” and he wants to challenge our authority at the last moment of his life. “

“That’s impossible. If he wants to die, I can fulfill his wish immediately. ” The old man said.

“But this little guy is very interesting. Here is his information.” The young man handed over a few pieces of paper.

But the old man didn’t take it.

His eyes were half – closed and half – Open, and his eyeballs were moving at different speeds.

The life force in his body was slowly flowing away, and now he was like an oil lamp that was out of oil.

It was as if the candle of life would be blown out with a gust of wind.

The young man didn’t speak, nor did he move. They were in a stalemate.

“Why do you insist on it?” After a long time, the old man’s voice rang out like a bat in a cave.

“Father, I’m not done yet.” “This young man is helping the Royal Academy of Sciences solve the turbulence problem,” the young man said with a smile.”The Dean of the Academy of Sciences even went to see the king.”

“Turbulent flow? It’s a meaningless research. “

“It’s true for us, but it’s a different situation for those poor people.” The young man said,”this Chinese young man was hired by the Massachusetts General Hospital. It proves that he is one of the top doctors in the medical world. I insist on my suggestion. Let him take a look at you.”

“It’s no use. “

“It’s always good to try. ” “Tenured professor, you’re already qualified to enter this Castle,” the young man said.

“I’m old and tired. Living in this world, every day was painful. I’m starting to look forward to meeting my ancestor, but it’s a pity that I haven’t achieved everything I’ve been hoping for. “

“Then, about the consultation ...”

“You see, you will be the clan leader in half a year. Now, I have to respect your opinion.” The old man muttered.

The young man bowed and left.
