"Don't worry, Mr. Ling, Stark Industries will never treat talents badly, I can guarantee that." Pepper looked at Ling Xiao, and her confident aura instantly spread throughout the room.

At this moment, Ling Xiao began to hesitate, he didn't know if Pepper knew about his previous involvement in Lake Akali, or if he just liked his special massage treatment techniques.

Just as Ling Xiao groaned, Tony Stark walked out of the elevator, and when he saw a stranger appearing here, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, looked at Pepper, and asked, "Pepper, who is this gentleman?" ”

Pepper stood up and said to Tony Stark, "Tony, don't you remember, this is Mr. Ling, he met you at the Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles before. ”

Looking at Stark's confused face, Ling Xiao smiled lightly, stood up and said, "Miss Potts, at that time, Mr. Stark only had you in his eyes. Even if I'm standing by your side, Mr. Stark will turn a blind eye. ”

"This, this ......" Stark smiled a little awkwardly, but he just glanced up at Pepper and said very calmly, "Hello, Mr. Ling, it's a pleasure to see you again." ”

Seeing that the two shook hands, Pepper said with a calm face: "Tony, Mr. Ling is a senior student in the Department of Genetic Medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles, and has rich experience in surgery, not only that, but he is also proficient in ancient medicine from the Eastern world, and the acupuncture and massage techniques are very effective in restoring body functions, and he is very famous in a certain class in Los Angeles." I hope he can help you take a look at your ......"

"Pepper, this is the first few, since I returned to New York, you have arranged for me to see a number of doctors, but none of them have any good solutions for my situation, what use can you expect from a college student." At the mention of this, Tony Stark looked a little decadent, he took out a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, and sat on the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window indifferently, his face was very calm.

"Tony." Pepper walked up to Stark's side and said in a deep voice, "Your situation is not incurable, and those doctors have thought of many ways before, but they can't operate due to the extremely high incidence of complications and infections. And, Tony, to tell you the truth, the first person I looked for was Mr. Ling, who has a very high level of medical skills. ”

Hearing Pepper say this, Ling Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that they didn't know that Ling Xiao had been involved in Lake Yakali before. It seems that in terms of treating the condition, Tony Stark has not yet contacted Professor Charles's side, but even if he does, it is useless, if Jean is still there, there may be some way, and now that Jean is gone, Charles's side is afraid that there is nothing to do.

Although Magneto can manipulate the shampling in Stark's body, his methods are too rough to carry out those delicate operations, and he will only suck out those shampnel at once, and as for Tony Starka, I am afraid that he will also die of heart damage.

I don't know if it's because Stark believes in Ling Xiao's medical skills, or because in order to reassure Pepper, Stark finally agrees to let Ling Xiao help see a doctor.

After signing a series of confidentiality agreements, Ling Xiao began to treat Stark. Ling Xiao was not surprised by such an approach, after all, Tony Stark is the core figure of Stark Industries, once his illness is leaked, I am afraid that Stark Industries stock will plummet.

Looking at the terrible situation inside Stark's body after being taken down the ark reactor, Ling Xiao couldn't help frowning.

Putting the Ark Reactor back into Stark's body, Ling Xiao took a deep breath, the situation was even more than he imagined, originally he thought that it would not be a problem to treat Tony Stark with his current ability, but after witnessing it with his own eyes, Ling Xiao had to admit that he was still a little too optimistic.

"Miss Potts, Mr. Stark." Ling Xiao washed his hands, took off his mask, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Stark's situation, the main danger is in two aspects, first, the shrapnel in his body is very broken and small, all of them are concentrated in the blood vessels near the heart, if you want to take them out, you must cut the corresponding blood vessels during the operation, which is very dangerous, because the operation takes a long time, and if you are not careful, the shampnel will flow into the heart, endangering Mr. Stark's life." ”

After a slight pause, Ling Xiao continued, "Of course, the risk of complications and infections is also high, but if the operation is my part, this aspect is not too much of a problem. ”

Ling Xiao didn't block the operation alone, Tony Stark's heart surgery involved all aspects, which required a very mature and clever medical team to carry it out, such a team, he didn't have in his hands.

"Second, to be honest, Mr. Stark's current method of dealing with it is very good, using the Ark reactor to suck the shrapnel in his body and prevent it from flowing into the heart, which is a good solution, but the only problem in this way is the palladium poisoning brought by the reactor. As long as the shrapnel is in the body for a day, the Ark Reactor will not think about taking it out, and the palladium poisoning will continue to continue, and eventually lead to his death, which is like an endless cycle. ”

Ling Xiao took a deep breath, smiled, and said to the two, "I think what I said. Many people have told you before. To solve this problem, you must either surgically remove the shrapnel or find a way to relieve palladium poisoning. In view of Mr. Stark's special status, I suggest that we still find a way to build on the second point. ”

"You have a way to get rid of palladium poisoning." Stark buttoned up his shirt and looked at Ling Xiao in disbelief.

"No, no, no," Ling Xiao waved his hand and said, "If you want to relieve palladium poisoning, you still have to find a way from the chemical aspect, my own chemical knowledge is not enough to support me to solve this problem, and Mr. Stark needs to find a way to solve this problem." And as long as the Ark Reactor is in the body for a day, there will be a steady stream of palladium produced. All I can do is find a way to get the palladium out of your body every day, so that he can't endanger your life. ”

"Can you do this?" Stark and Pepper glanced at each other, and Ling Xiao's treatment was actually similar to solving the palladium poisoning.

"Of course." Ling Xiao smiled lightly and continued, "I know that Mr. Stark has a way to check the degree of palladium poisoning in his body, so we can try it now." ”

As he spoke, Ling Xiao took out a small iron box from the bag he was carrying, opened the box, and a burst of white mist immediately came out again.

If you look closely, you can see that there are several melted Xiaoice pieces and a thumb-sized glass bottle in the locket.

Ling Xiao took out the glass bottle and shook it gently, the transparent liquid inside shook slightly, and he handed it to Stark, and said, "This is a special bottle, you can try it, just open it and drink it." ”

Pepper frowned, took the glass bottle from Stark's hand, and asked with some confusion, "Ling, this can't be the bottle of liquid you used for me to make easy maintenance, right?" ”

"Almost, the one you're using is a diluted product, and this one is the stock solution." Ling Xiao knew what Pepper was worried about, he smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, there's no poison in this." ”

"Mr. Ling is thinking too much." Stark retrieved the vial from Pepper's hand, pulled out the cork nonchalantly, and poured the liquid into his mouth in one gulp. But immediately Stark felt like he had drunk ice, and the flowing ice poured from his throat directly into his heart, cold to the bone.
