GoodReadChapter 674
With a pale face, Fatty sighed. "Mr. Arnold, I-I didn't mean to bring you any trouble. I've had this magical artifact
for over ten years and it can truly prolong one's life. However, after strange things started to happen in my
family, | went to a divination master and he toldthat my luck has been declining in these few years because
this magical artifact is incompatible with me. Therefore, | must sell this magical artifact. By selling it, not only
can | save my life, but | can also protect my luck. In conclusion, there's nothing wrong with this magical artifact
and it's my fate that's the issue."
Ambrose wasn't too convinced by his explanation.
Matthew chuckled. "Fatty, the master that you sought is quite skillful. At least he was able to identify the root
cause of your problems, which is this magical artifact. However, it has nothing to do with luck!" Fatty was
surprised. "Since it's related to this magical artifact, why isn't it related to luck as well?"

After pondering for a while, Fatty answered, "Yes, | bought a few ivory cups. What's wrong with that?"
Matthew replied, "Think carefully. Did those accidents happen after you bought the ivory cups?"
Fatty gasped, "If you hadn't mentioned it, | wouldn't have linked these incidents! You're right. Ever since |
brought those cups home, accidents have happened consecutively. Mr. Larson, do you mean that these cups are
the issue?"
Matthew shook his head. "There's nothing wrong with the cups."
Fatty asked, "So the magical artifact is indeed the issue?"
Matthew shook his head again. "There's nothing wrong with the magical artifact either."
Confused, Fatty asked, "What is the problem then?"
Matthew chuckled. "The problem arises when the cups and the magical artifact are placed together."
Fatty widened his eyes. "Why?!"
Matthew explained, "The so-called magical artifact is actually not a magical artifact but a pill furnace, which is
specifically used to make pills. In ancient times, pill-making masters would make unconventional medicines, so
there's a lingering presence of these medicines in the pill furnace. Under normal situations, the residue in the pill
furnace can cure numerous diseases and prolong one's life. However, the residue in this pill furnace is
incompatible with ivory. If there are ivories at home, the residue of this medicine will turn into a deadly poison,
which will poison whoever used the ivory cup. Regardless of which hospital you visit, no one can identify it, so
one will end up dying of an unknown cause."
Fatty gaped in shock while he asked in a trembling voice, "I-Is that true? Mr. Larson, is that true?"

Perplexed, Ambrose asked as well, "Mr. Larson, are you an expert in medicine?"
Crystal immediately replied, "Matthew is not only an expert in medicine, but the best doctor in the six southern
states! Have you heard of Leonard the Acupuncturist? Even he was defeated by Matthew, and that's why he
treats Matthew with such deep reverence!"
Ambrose and Fatty exchanged a look. Before this, both of them didn't understand why such a haughty person
like Leonard the Acupuncturist would treat a young man with great reverence. But now, they finally understood!
Fatty was indeed clever so he immediately pleaded with Matthew, "Dr. Larson, please save me! I'll give you this
pill furnace for free. On top of that, I'll give you whatever amount of money you ask for. Please saveand my
pitiful son. H-His illness is even more severe than mine. I'm worried that he won't be able to hold on for long."
Matthew nodded and said, "As | said, you're sincere. Therefore, | won't take your money and the fee for curing
your illness will be settled with the pill furnace. After | accept your fee, I'll definitely save you and your family."
Fatty was overjoyed. At the stime, he finally understood what Matthew meant earlier.
