Chapter 18 The Miracle Medicine Appears

An Yan rubbed her forehead. She felt very troubled. Why was this person so childish?

But Li Yu felt that the medicine was beginning to take effect, and he had already stood up and walked towards her.

An Yan picked up the paper folding fan on the table and hit his arm hard, which surprised him because a red mark soon appeared on his arm. The pain made him cramp and said, "You..."

"I advise you to be more obedient, otherwise you will be the one who ruins your hand." An Yan stood up, walked around the table and sat in the seat where he had just sat, while An Yu sat in the seat where An Yan had just sat, covering his arm and pursing his lips in silence. He still underestimated her.

"I don't make a living from this. I just help people when I see them need help. But you took it to heart and are trying to pick on me." An Yan didn't want to cause trouble at all, but she also didn't want to be high-profile.

Now all the peace and quiet has been ruined by this man.

Li Yu was heard saying: "Then let them say whatever they want, we will each go our own way and not interfere with each other, what do you think?"

"What should we do about this mess? Everyone says I'm your apprentice, so you have to give an explanation." An Yan asked him.

Li Yu lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said, "I haven't announced this matter directly. It's nothing more than everyone's speculation. If you ignore it, it will pass and no one will remember it."

"You were going to destroy my hand just now." An Yan asked him casually.

"That was just to scare you. You don't have to take it seriously. We are doctors after all. How could we do something that would harm others?"

"Only a doctor would kill someone without blinking an eye." An Yan sneered. She lowered her head to look at the photos on the table. One of them was very interesting. There were five people in total, but they were standing in two rows, as if there was an invisible barrier between them.

One of them was Li Yu, and next to him stood a man wearing a long gown. A little further away were three other men, all in suits and ties, with a condescending attitude.

She had looked up information and found that there were three major families in the medical field: the Lu family, the Zhou family, and the Xu family. Li Yu was the president of the Chinese Medicine Association, but who was this man?

Seeing that she was looking down seriously, Li Yu wanted to give her an anesthetic injection when she was not paying attention. However, An Yan found out and she hit his hand with her folding fan, causing the syringe to fall to the ground.

He took a step back in fear, but An Yan didn't bother with him. She pointed at the person in the photo on the table and asked, "Who is this person?"

Li Yu took a look and said, "This man is dead. He turned out to be my friend, called Hua Ye."

"Master Hua." An Yan nodded thoughtfully, then took a thin needle from the table and said to Li Yu, "I see that you are such an adult, but you still have ADHD. How embarrassing."

"What do you mean?" Li Yu was confused.

But An Yan had already inserted a needle into his forehead and said, "Think calmly about how to clarify the truth, otherwise just lie here and die." After that, she strode past him and left.

There was a "bang" sound behind him. It turned out that Li Yu had fallen straight to the ground like a vegetable.

She opened the door and saw Ding Yi and Ding Er with angry faces. She said to them, "You all heard it. This is the good master you have always thought of. He is so virtuous and respected." After that, she went downstairs.

Ding Yi and Ding Er quickly chased after her and said to An Yan, "We would like to become your disciples, is that okay?"

An Yan turned around to look at them and said, "That won't do. It's so troublesome to accept an apprentice. Besides, don't you already have a master?"

"He doesn't deserve it." Ding Yi said.

"Then I won't accept any disciples. Stop bothering me, or I will really call the police." An Yan threatened them and left. She knew that the two brothers were not bad people, they were just a little naive, otherwise they would not have been suppressed by Li Yu for so many years. Their accomplishments were far more than what everyone knew, and they were also above Li Yu.

The Ding brothers did not dare to force it and went back to the house to check on Li Yu.

An Yan was thinking about the man named Hua Ye, and inexplicably felt that he was not simple.

Then there are the three major families. I heard that they are not easy to deal with. They almost control the medical lifeline of the whole country. Everyone wants to get in. Even a person like Li Yu who thinks he is great can't get a share of the pie.

At this moment, her cell phone rang. It was Li Rongsen calling. She picked it up and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I have good news to tell you. Xuelian Zi has appeared." Li Rongsen said on the other end of the phone.

"Is it true?" An Yan couldn't believe it.

"Whether it's true or not, the key is to go and take a look first, don't you think?" Li Rongsen reminded her.

This was true. An Yan asked again, "Where can we go?"

"Auction house, I heard the auction will start early tomorrow morning, and the starting price is five million."

Five million is a high price. If it is real Snow Lotus Purple, it would be worth over 100 million. Although An Yan still has doubts in her heart and knows that she may not have so much money to bid, she also plans to go and see if it is real.

But she thought it was probably fake.

She said, "Thank you for telling me, I understand." Then she hung up the phone.

But Li Rongsen called again.

She picked up the phone and asked, "Anything else?"

"I want to go and take a look too." He said this on the other end of the phone, hoping she could understand what he meant.

But An Yan just gave him an "Oh".

And then nothing happened, which made Li Rongsen a little embarrassed. He had to save himself and said, "It might rain tomorrow, so it's necessary to bring an umbrella."

"Got it." An Yan hung up the phone and followed someone into a dark alley.

She felt that something was very strange. The man in the photo whom she had just seen in the office upstairs appeared in the alley here. She instinctively followed him.

He pushed the door open and walked into a small courtyard, keeping her outside.

An Yan looked up at the door, which was old and broken. She looked around and found a sycamore tree outside the wall. She climbed up the trunk easily and smelled a fragrance. She immediately pinched an acupoint on her hand and then looked into the yard. It was a small courtyard with a man squatting in the yard, as if fiddling with some medicinal herbs.

She came down from the tree, pinched the acupuncture points she had just touched, and murmured, "This tree is actually coated with poison. It shows that he is really not an ordinary person."

It was getting dark, and An Yan planned to go back first, but just as she was about to take a step, she heard the door open and instinctively looked over there.

He was a man in his late sixties, with gray hair and wearing oversized clothes. He looked much older than in the photo, but it was not difficult to see the handsomeness and heroic spirit of his youth.

He came out and said, "The phoenix lives in the wutong tree. Since you are here, why don't you come in and take a look?"
