With that in mind, he accepted it calmly.
"Then I'll have to trouble you two!"
The servant, flattered and overwhelmed, kowtowed to him.
"Young Master, what are you saying? We servants are meant to share our master's burdens!"
Lu Siqing was very satisfied with these words.
"Get up quickly! Go get your brother a blanket; this tattered blanket is really unsightly!"
After hearing this, the two agreed and immediately went upstairs to get the blankets.
After everyone left, Lü Siqing immediately looked at Qin Luo and Wu Hua, as if asking them how she had performed.
Qin Luo and Wu Hua both gave him a thumbs up, and then the three of them covered their mouths and chuckled.
The waiter and the shopkeeper were completely baffled, unable to tell whether they were happy or sad!
To avoid gossip, Lü Siqing gave the waiter a tael of silver as a tip, instructing him to fetch the best doctor in the city.
He then asked the innkeeper if there were any powerful monks or Taoist priests in the city, hoping to invite them to see if they could help his brother eliminate his karmic obstacles.
Upon hearing this, the innkeeper immediately summoned the waiter and ordered him to invite the most famous monk and Taoist priest in the city.
This happened in my own shop, after all. Although the lightning didn't damage anything inside.
But it wouldn't be good if word got out, since someone was willing to pay for hiring someone.
Let's perform a thorough ritual for the shop, as a way to pray for blessings and cleanse it of evil spirits!
Everything was arranged, and Lü Siqing decided to stay in the lobby tonight to watch over Lü Simian.
Even outsiders couldn't find fault with him; they would even admire his deep affection for his elder brother.
Qin Luo and Wu Hua didn't stop him, but they didn't want to accompany him.
After saying goodbye to Lü Siqing, I prepared to go upstairs to rest.
As I walked toward the stairs, I saw two servants standing there with blankets, not daring to approach.
Qin Luo felt sorry for them, so she took the blanket and threw it on Lü Simian.
Lu Siqing was startled when she saw the blanket suddenly fly over.
Turning around, he saw it was Qin Luo who did it, and gave her a thumbs up.
"Brother, well done!"
Qin Luo raised an eyebrow at him, then carried Wu Hua upstairs.
That night, besides Qin Luo and Wu Hua who entered the space...
None of the other people in the inn slept well, or rather, none of them dared to sleep.
I had already gone to bed when I was woken up by the sounds of monks chanting incantations and Taoist priests performing sword dances.
I ran out to ask and found out about the divine punishment. Now who would dare to sleep?
Some of the braver ones ran downstairs to watch the excitement, while the timid ones all hid in their rooms, too afraid to come out.
Upon hearing that it was divine punishment, the doctor who was summoned dared not intervene, fearing that saving the person would incur the wrath of Heaven.
Lü Simian could only ask the waiter to fetch another doctor, saying that even though his elder brother had committed many evil deeds...
As his younger brother, he couldn't just stand by and watch him die like that.
Overnight, the news of someone being punished by the heavens at Wanfu Inn spread like wildfire!
Qin Luo and Wu Hua, who were resting in the space, were completely unaware of the developments outside.
The two were still chatting, reminiscing about their seamless collaboration with Tengteng.
Qin Luo had originally planned to have Tengteng scare Lü Simian at night, but Wu Hua intercepted the plan.
However, she did think that Wu Hua's interception was just right, saving her from having to make another move.
The two were chatting enthusiastically when Tengteng spoke up.
"Hey, you two, don't get too excited yet. I just gave him a little shock, he won't die! If I can get someone to find a good doctor, he might recover in a while!"
Qin Luo wasn't worried about this at all.
"Don't worry! Doctor You won't be willing to treat him. People in this era avoid divine punishment like the plague, so why would they save him for a little consultation fee!"
Wu Hua also agreed
"The ancients mostly believed in ghosts and gods!"
Tengteng spoke again upon hearing this.
"Even if no doctor saves him, he won't die! Don't forget, he has five pills on him, including the ones Luo Luo gave him! After taking them, he probably won't even have any side effects!"
Qin Luo and Wu Hua had really forgotten about this; after a moment of silence, they...
Wu Hua waved her hand dismissively.
"It's alright. We didn't intend for him to die anyway. He won't wake up anytime soon. We can just replace the pills tomorrow!"
Qin Luo chimed in, "Exactly! That's divine punishment. No matter how precious the medicines in the human world are, they can't completely cure it. It's perfectly normal to have some lingering effects!"
Tengteng was finally fed up with these two old men, and decided that in the future, she would rather offend no one than these two...
Early the next morning
Qin Luo tucked Teng Teng into his pocket, grabbed a porcelain bottle containing five mud balls, and pulled Wu Hua downstairs to find Lü Siqing.
As soon as the two of them came downstairs, they saw that his eyes were bloodshot and he looked exhausted!
I don't know if it was from staying up late, or from the smoke from burning incense and paper money all over the house.
Qin Luo pulled him aside and asked him...
"Little brother, no one has harmed your elder brother, has he?"
Although Lü Siqing didn't understand why she asked that, she still answered honestly.
"No, even doctors are unwilling to treat him, and people around him keep their distance!"
Qin Luo was relieved to hear him say that.
"For a moment, you distract everyone while I go and switch the pills on his body!"
Lü Siqing knew that it was a birthday gift that Lü Simian had spent a lot of money to buy and was preparing to give to his grandmother.
He agreed without hesitation.
"Don't worry, brother, I've got it covered!"
Qin Luo nodded and turned around, and Lü Siqing walked to the incense table set up by the monks and Taoists and knelt down.
Then came a long howl to the sky.
"Heavens above! Although my brother is wicked and ruthless, my father has always been diligent and conscientious in the Ministry of Rites and has never done anything wrong..."
