Chapter 538: The Mad Demon Who Protects His Daughter
After saying this, Miss Du fainted again.
After she gave the order, all the disciples responded and came forward to help Hu Xiner and others.
"I said that the senior sister is more reasonable than the master?" someone whispered.
The disciple next to him immediately poked him: "Stop talking, Master can hear you!"
Although what Mr. Du did was very unkind, he was an excellent master in his daily life. He not only taught them a lot of skills, but also did not keep anything to himself.
As disciples, they should naturally respect their teacher. Although they disobeyed him just now because they were in a hurry, it was still unfilial.
Hu Laosan was the eldest disciple of the Du family martial arts school. He and several other disciples enthusiastically helped Hu Xiner to a chair, and repeatedly instructed the little medicine boy next to them to cook some ginger soup.
Doctor He said slowly, "There's a fur cloak made in the northern border area in the inner room. Let's put it on this girl."
Before Hu Xin'er could speak, Hu Lao San bowed and thanked him: "Mr. He's kindness and medical skills are admirable, but at this moment, Madam Lu should be most worried about the Second Young Master's injury!"
Doctor He said slowly, "No hurry, no hurry. Isn't there still half a quarter of an hour left?"
After saying this, he paused, as if realizing that he had gone a little too far, and he sped up his treatment of Lu Yunjue.
Just as he took out the pill, he deliberately raised his voice again: "Alas, if this kid hadn't been smart enough to get the Du family's unique secret medicine, he would have died within an hour, and how could he have waited until he came to find me... Some people, tsk tsk, when they were young, they talked about swordsmanship, but now they are getting more and more confused as they get older."
These words were obviously directed at Master Du, and the disciples did not dare to say anything, while Master Du silently lowered his head, looking as dejected as a big cat.
Mu Qing was helped to the chair next to Hu Xiner, while Lu Yunjue was carried to another bed.
There is strength in numbers. Surrounded by the disciples, Hu Xin'er barely came to her senses before she found that everything had been taken care of.
She stared blankly at the steaming ginger tea in front of her. Hu Lao San put a cloak on her and said, "Don't worry, Madam Lu. Although my master has a bad temper, he usually listens to the eldest sister the most. Now that the eldest sister has spoken, he will not bother you again."
Hu Xin'er was about to respond when she saw Hu Lao San wink at her. Then his voice rang out in her ears again: "My master is very proud. If you answer him now, he might not be able to bring himself to do it. Let's just let him be alone for a few days."
Hu Xiner pursed her lips, but... Hu Lao San didn't move his lips when he spoke.
Moreover, the people around him didn't seem to hear Hu Laosan's voice.
If Hu Laosan had not been looking at her eagerly and winking at her, she would have thought that the voice in her mind was an illusion.
At this time, Hu Lao San's voice rang out again: "This is the Hu family's unique secret technique, called the Secret Sound Transmission. It uses internal energy to transmit sound to the ears of a designated person. It is an extremely secret communication method. If you wish to learn it, Madam, I can teach you in the future. It can be regarded as an apology for the master."
After hearing the first half of the sentence, Hu Xin'er understood. When she was drawing comics in the past, she had seen all kinds of imagination. She also had some knowledge of the cultivation system of the people in the martial arts world.
But the second half of the sentence really surprised her. Shouldn't this method be kept secret? How could Hu Lao San be so generous?
I don’t know if it’s a trick... This thought flashed through her mind, and she secretly laughed at herself for being too suspicious.
She has no internal energy, so naturally she cannot use this method. What's the use even if Hu Lao San passes this method to her?
I guess he knew this and only said that to make amends for his master.
She took the opportunity to drink tea and nodded calmly, indicating that she understood what Hu Laosan meant.
Although Mr. Du was indeed excessive, she had just argued for so long, pretending to cry and trying to delay time. She was extremely tired both physically and mentally and did not want to cause any more trouble.
Seeing that Doctor He had finished treating Yun Jue, she hurriedly said, "Please, Doctor, take a look at my husband as well."
Doctor He yawned sleepily. "There aren't many couples as loving as you these days. Speaking of which, Xiaoqin, that troublesome child, is about the same age as you, but she's nowhere near as sensible as you."
Hu Xin'er thought for a moment and said, "Miss Du is warm and simple-minded. This is also a good thing."
Originally, she thought Miss Du's persistence was a bit annoying, and she seemed to have bad intentions.
But after seeing how protective Mr. Du was of his daughter today, she felt that it was not easy for Miss Du to be born sensible and understanding despite being spoiled by her father like that.
After all, Miss Du had rescued her from trouble several times, and this time she went into the tunnel to help them.
Hu Xin'er always remembers the good things about those who have helped her.
Perhaps some people would think that such behavior is stupid. After all, they believe that if someone offends me, I will repay him tenfold.
But Hu Xiner feels that no one is perfect, and no one in this world can say that they have never done anything wrong.
She is often impulsive and sometimes causes trouble to others. Why not face life with a smile in a more tactful and positive way?
After hearing this, Doctor He looked at her deeply and said, "Madam, your demeanor doesn't seem to be something that an ordinary merchant can cultivate."
Merchants are known for their penny-pinching and often harbor hidden daggers behind their smiles. A woman with the integrity and courage to stand out like Hu Xin'er is rare. Even rarer still is one in a million who can distinguish right from wrong afterward, avoiding excessive anger and resentment.
Not to mention merchants, even among martial arts families, few can have such a temperament and bearing.
Hu Xiner did not expect that Dr. He would make such an evaluation of her. She just thought that the doctor might be speaking to her for politeness.
She herself didn't realize it, but after going through so many things, the aura around her had changed again.
In the past, she was a young country girl who knew nothing about etiquette and was good at business, so she had a bright and generous temperament.
Later, she came to the capital, and when she transformed into the polite and chaste Mrs. Lu, she also developed an indelible sorrow and suspicion in her heart.
But now, after going through life and death, she no longer worries about trivial matters and can naturally look down on ordinary grudges.
She smiled and didn't continue the topic. Instead, she asked, "How is my husband's injury? How much is the consultation fee?"
Doctor He carefully examined Mu Qing and said thoughtfully, "Old Du's blow was quite severe. Fortunately, he used his internal energy to protect his heart meridian in time, otherwise..."
He prescribed some medicine for Mu Qing and said, "He has great martial arts skills. He should be fine after taking this Duanxu Powder. As for the consultation fee..."
