He quickly responded, wiped his face with a wet towel, opened the door and walked out.
The others were preparing for dinner as usual, and no one questioned his late rising. After all, it was normal for Gu Lingze to occasionally sleep in at his age.
Only Zhao Chengmo looked at Gu Lingze with a deep gaze for a while, and when the other party's gaze came over, he turned his head away as if nothing had happened.
After dinner, Gu Lingze asked everyone to gather in the main hall. Except for Jinzi and Lingzi, everyone else was given a pill.
"This is the Gu Yuan Bao Zhen Pill given by my master. It is very good for your health if you take it."
Needless to say, the three patients Xu Mingyan, Zhao Chengmo and Brother Wu, Uncle Xu and Aunt Tao were also affected by the previous situation and had a lot of coldness in their bodies.
Jinzi and Lingzi are still young, and if Gu Lingze gave them a whole pill, they would be too weak to absorb the tonic, so he only gave them half a pill each.
"Brother, eat too." Jinzi saw that they all had some, except Gu Lingze, so he ran up to him and said.
Gu Lingze felt warm at heart, touched Jinzi's little head, and said, "Don't worry, brother has eaten before, these are all for you."
Aunt Tao said with some hesitation on her face: "This is a good thing your master gave you. You should keep it for yourself. We eat well and live well now, and we are in good health." After saying that, she handed the pill in her hand to him.
"We all live together now, we are a family. Would you hide something good from me?"
After hearing what he said, Zhao Chengmo was the first to put the pill into his mouth and swallowed it. Xu Mingyan also smiled and shook his head and ate it as well.
When others saw this, they put them in their mouths.
After everyone took it, they didn't feel anything unusual at first, but after a while, their bodies became warm and they seemed to be lighter.
The three patients felt it particularly clearly. Xu Mingyan felt that the remaining weak energy in his body had completely disappeared, as if there was a heat source in his body that constantly emitted vitality.
Brother Wu glanced at Zhao Chengmo, only to see him shake his head imperceptibly. Brother Wu then sincerely thanked Gu Lingze and remained silent.
Gu Lingze was just about to ask Zhao Chengmo how he felt when there was a sudden noise outside the door.
I felt that the remaining weakness in my body had completely disappeared, as if there was a heat source in my body that constantly emitted vitality.
"Open the door! Open the door quickly! Gu Lingze, get out here!" Aunt Tao couldn't sit still anymore when she heard Shen Si's mother's voice.
As soon as he opened the door, he shouted to the people outside: "Shen family wife, keep your mouth shut. Why are you making a scene in front of someone else's door so early in the morning?"
"Where have you hidden my Shen Rong? Hand over my son immediately! Otherwise, I will never let you off today!" The Shen family's wife shouted with a ferocious face.
"Your son is missing, so you come here to look for him? I think you must have hit your head on the edge of the jar and become stupid!" Aunt Tao also responded bluntly.
Just as the Shen family's wife was about to speak, Gu Lingze came out and asked calmly, "Our two families have long been at odds with each other. Why would Shen Rong come to my manor for no reason?"
Shen Rong's wife couldn't help but said, "Don't deny it, my husband clearly told me..." She suddenly stopped talking here.
"What did I tell you?" Gu Lingze raised the corner of his mouth in a teasing arc.
"I saw my husband walking towards your house. He must have come to your place."
Gu Lingze sneered after hearing this.
"This is ridiculous. If you walk in the direction of my house, you must be at my farm? I think you are just looking for an excuse to extort money."
After saying that, he threw two taels of silver on the ground, raised his chin and said, "This is a reward for you, take it and get out of here quickly."
The villagers who were watching nearby all burst into laughter, and the two women from the Shen family were so embarrassed that their faces turned red, and they ran away.
Before leaving, Mrs. Shen picked up two taels of silver from the ground and put it in her arms.
Sarcastic looks came from all directions. Shen Rong's wife couldn't stand the embarrassment. She covered her face and ran away without waiting for her mother-in-law.
After closing the door, Gu Lingze went to the woodshed and kicked Shen Rong, who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead.
"Your mother and your wife came to look for you just now, but unfortunately, I sent them away with just two taels of silver."
After saying that, he picked up the hatchet next to him, placed it in a bright place and looked at the blade.
“I’ve thought about it, and in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I’ll just kill you now.” Gu Lingze’s tone was casual as if he was discussing what to eat in the evening with Shen Rong.
“Um… Um…” Shen Rong widened his eyes and wanted to shout something, but his mouth was blocked by a rag.
Gu Lingze squatted down, patted Shen Rong's face with the blade of the knife, and then slowly slashed towards his neck. Shen Rong was so scared that he twitched for a while, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.
Gu Lingze didn't care about all this. Just as he was about to continue, he heard Zhao Chengmo's voice suddenly.
"Don't get your hands dirty."
Gu Lingze stood up and turned around to see him standing at the door. It seemed that the efficacy of the Guyuan Baozhen Pill was beyond doubt. Gu Lingze could not even hear Zhao Chengmo's footsteps if he was not paying attention.
"I didn't really want to kill him, I just wanted to teach him a lesson. I didn't expect he would be so easily frightened."
“I know.” Zhao Chengmo looked at Shen Rong on the ground and said, “Leave it to me.”
Someone was willing to do it for him, and Gu Lingze was certainly willing to do it. Shen Rong stank so much that he didn't want to stay here.
Gu Lingze patted Zhao Chengmo on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your help." Then he turned and went out, closing the door.
After lunch, the housekeeper of Mr. Zhen’s house came with something. When they opened it, they found that it was the tiger bones that Gu Lingze had asked them to find before. There were only seven pieces, but they were enough.
"Please thank your master for me. How much is the total? I'll go get the banknote." But the butler said he didn't want any money. He put the things down and left quickly.
Gu Lingze smiled without forcing it, picked up the tiger bone in his hand and looked at it carefully.
This is a rare thing. After all, in his world, tigers are protected animals, so Gu Lingze has no chance to use its bones for medicine.
Gu Lingze processed the tiger bones according to the method described in Compendium of Materia Medica, and then combined it with the secret recipe of Guiyi School to make Xu Gu Paste.
With this, Brother Wu's leg can be completely healed.
Shen Rong was thrown at the door of his house the next day. His face was blue and purple from the cold. After he was carried inside, Shen Liang hurried to find Doctor Li.
"Dad, my husband has become like this because of his family!"
Shen Rong's daughter-in-law Jiang Guixiang kept crying, which made people very annoyed.
