Gu Anxu glanced at the burly man leading the way in front and whispered:
"I just overheard someone mentioning a private warehouse. We still need to investigate its exact location."
Si Jinxing lowered his head, but his peripheral vision was secretly scanning the Heyan Village.
To the north of the ancestral hall in the middle, that is, the land above Yuanbao's belly, is actually a martial arts training ground. There are many swords on both sides of the ground, and a row of stables on the north side!
A village that doesn't raise cattle or sheep actually raises horses!
She wanted to take another look, but then she heard the guide call out, "Doctor Gu, this is the village head's house. Please come in."
Si Jinxing stopped and looked towards the house.
The blue bricks and gray tiles are not much different from other houses in the village, except that there are two stone lions squatting at the door, which are not found in other houses.
Gu Anxu bowed in thanks before walking forward and knocking on the gate.
The person who opened the door was an older man. When he saw Gu Anxu, he recognized him and said with a smile:
"It's Mr. Gu. Please come in. Please wait here for a moment while I pass the message inside."
Gu Anxu naturally had no choice but to nod and said, "Thank you, old sir."
Seeing this, Si Jinxing became even more suspicious!
The style of a village head is not even as good as that of a general's mansion!
Not long after, the old man came out and said with a smile:
"Mr. Gu, please come in quickly. As soon as I tell you that you are from the Gu family in Suzhou, our old man will come out to greet you!
His health has been getting worse day by day, and he was stopped by the master. Now he is waiting for you!"
Gu Anxu followed the old man into the courtyard and said with a polite smile:
"How can I let the old man greet me? This is too embarrassing for me!"
Si Jinxing followed Gu Anxu into the house.
After walking a few steps, they arrived at the front yard, and heard a strong male voice: "Mr. Gu, what a rare guest!"
Gu Anxu stepped forward, clasped his fists, and said, "Oh, why did the village head come to greet us personally? I wonder how the old man is doing these days?"
Si Jinxing looked up and saw a middle-aged man wearing a double-breasted robe standing in front of the gate. The man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a warm smile on his face.
As she looked at the other person, he also noticed her.
"Who is this?"
Gu Anxu introduced:
"Hey, she's a poor child. Now that she's my disciple, it's worth it for me to save her!"
He just finished speaking to that person, then turned to Si Jinxing and said, "Ning'er, call someone quickly."
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing knelt down and saluted, saying, "Ning'er greets Uncle Village Chief."
Seeing this, someone there couldn't help but ask, "Why is this child wearing a veil hat?"
Gu Anxu shook his head, sighed softly, and whispered, "The face is completely ruined. Master, please don't mention this matter."
He turned his head to look over there, a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything else, just let the person into the front hall.
But when he turned around, he saw a corner of the woman's veil hat suddenly lifted up by the wind.
Although the woman quickly grabbed the scarf, he still saw the terrifying face under the veil...
He chuckled and said, "Come in quickly. Mr. Wu still has some things to do. Please forgive me, Mr. Gu."
Upon hearing this, Gu Anxu clasped his fists and said:
"Master, the village head is busy. I am here to visit the old man today. I dare not bother you any more."
He nodded, told the servants to receive him well, then turned and walked away.
A servant outside the door had already lifted the door curtain and said, "You two, the old master is inside."
Gu Anxu glanced at Si Jinxing, put a smile on his face again, and stepped into the room.
Si Jinxing glanced at the servant who was watching in the corner, then followed him into the house.
This is a home, and there is something strange about it...
When she entered, she heard Gu Anxu exchanging greetings with the old master:
"Old Master, how are you feeling lately? Is your stomachache getting better?"
The old man had gray hair and looked to be about sixty years old, about the same age as the old lady of the Si family.
He waved his hand, asked Gu Anxu to sit down, and then said:
"Doctor Gu, it's been a while! My stomachache is still the same, sometimes better, sometimes worse. I've had it twice in recent days. Where did this come from?"
Gu Anxu smiled and said, "My little daughter's illness has improved, and I have time to come to Xuzhou, so I thought of coming to see you. Seeing that you are in good health, I feel relieved."
The Gu family in Suzhou gave birth to a freak girl. This news spread all over Suzhou and Xuzhou, and the old man had also heard about it!
He stroked his long beard and said:
"Okay, okay! Your excellent medical skills are well worth it, and you take good care of me!"
Gu Anxu shook his head and said:
"If she could be cured, it wouldn't have taken so many years. It's because I met a miracle doctor that I have hope. He said she'll be well in a month!
My medical skills are still too rudimentary. As the saying goes, there are always people better than you, and it’s true!”
When the old man heard this, he immediately became energetic and asked:
"What miracle doctor? Where is that person?"
Gu Anxu glanced at Si Jinxing, and seeing her nod slightly, he said:
“He is a young man who is currently in Xuzhou Prefecture.
That man's medical skills are good, but he charges a very high fee and has a strange temper. He doesn't want such good medical skills to be known to the world. Tell me, isn't that strange? "
Upon hearing this, the old master had a plan in mind and asked, "Do you know where he is staying now?"
Gu Anxu pondered for a moment and said:
"Old Master, that miraculous doctor doesn't like to be bothered. You must not tell him that I told you, otherwise he will stop treating my son..."
