Chapter 138 Little Doctor: It's OK
"Ahem, Taoist Priest Li?" The sick young man waved away the smoke in front of him. Seeing Li Chu, he was also a little surprised: "I was wondering who it was that came. I didn't expect it to be you."
The sick young man looked at him.
We did find out earlier that a Taoist priest broke into Wenrou and kidnapped Xu Zifu, which might be closely related to Miss Xiaoliu's incident.
Is that Taoist priest actually Li Chu?
"I didn't expect to meet Brother Chen either."
Li Chu nodded slightly. It was not easy for him to still remember this brother's name.
After all, when he went to the Qin family before, he was not very noticeable.
The boss that Liu Qinglian mentioned had a mysterious background, was connected to both the black and white worlds, and was feared by all the good girls.
Could it be the coughing, sickly scholar from the Qin family?
The two looked at each other and expressed surprise to each other.
"Please take a seat."
The sick young man put down his pipe and let Li Chu sit down first.
After Li Chu sat down, he looked around.
The lobby of Taogu Building below is magnificent, needless to say. This clean room looks quiet and simple, but the decoration actually hides a mystery. The utensils, screens, copper stoves, and even the mirror-like floor in the room all exude an ancient style.
To put it simply, it’s one word: expensive.
After all, this has been the number one brothel in Hangzhou for many years. Even if it has fallen behind in the past two years, the money it once earned would be worth a fortune if it were accumulated.
Thinking about the Qin family courtyard in the willow alley again, I really can't make the connection.
When the sick young man saw his eyes, he naturally knew what he was wondering about and rolled his eyes.
"Master Li, are you confused? Ahem. I am obviously the owner of Taogu Building, so why do I still live in Chui Liu Lane with my family?" he asked proactively.
Li Chu said: "Yes, a little bit."
"Alas." The sick young man sighed.
"The thing I regret most in my life is creating Taogu Tower," he said with emotion.
"I didn't expect this would change my life. I just wanted to run a small brothel, but it turned into such a big one."
"I don't like money, I have no interest in money!"
"So I continue to live in Willow Lane with my family because there I can live a peaceful life away from the troubles of money."
Li Chu narrowed his eyes and watched his performance.
I'd be foolish to believe you.
Of course, he didn't have any major interactions with the Qin family. He was just curious and had no interest in delving into other people's secrets.
So he changed the subject directly: "I have informed you before that I am here for Miss Xiao Liu's matter."
Seeing that he had successfully fooled the police, the sick young man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, what happened to Xiao Liu?"
"She is now free, but has not yet regained her human form. She wants to live in seclusion in my Deyun Temple for a while, so she asked me to let her know." Li Chu said.
"Hmm..." The sick young man hesitated, "Ahem, as long as she is safe, it doesn't matter where she goes. But I recently made an appointment with a miracle doctor, who was originally scheduled to come and see me. It just so happened that her problem happened, so I wanted to ask the miracle doctor to see her as well. If she goes to Deyun Temple, I will come to disturb you in the future."
"A miracle doctor?"
"Yes, he is said to be a disciple of Xuanhu Weng."
Li Chu was a little hesitant at first.
Because Chao Tianque had ordered not to spread the news about the Good Fortune Pill, it was inconvenient to say it out loud at this time. But he knew in his heart that Miss Xiao Liu's condition was complicated and an ordinary doctor would not be able to help.
The true path to making elixirs is closer to magical skills and techniques, and is mostly studied by cultivators.
However... there are indeed some miraculous doctors in this world who use their supernatural powers to assist their medical skills, and their methods are almost supernatural.
The old man who practiced medicine was one of them.
If this is a true miracle doctor, he might be able to find an antidote to the Creation Pill.
"No problem." He nodded in agreement.
"Well, that's settled then." The sick young man also nodded.
After a few words, Li Chu was about to get up and leave, but the sick young man stopped him again.
"Ahem, Taoist Xiao Li." He said, "Come to my house again when you have time?"
Li Chu looked at him: "Is your house haunted again?"
“Ahem! No, no.” The sick young man waved his hands repeatedly: “It’s just that our family in the… courtyard all miss you so much, so just come and sit with us whenever you pass by.”
"Oh." Li Chu gave a polite smile.
"Next time, for sure."
…
General Zhennan's Mansion.
This generation of General Zhennan Lin Jigong rushed back from the Jiangnan military town in a hurry and sweating profusely.
The servant hurried forward to help the general take off his armor and change his clothes. The heavy armor fell to the ground, splashing a cloud of dust.
A cloud of steam rose from the general's body, and it was scorching hot.
Because he thought the BMW horse ran too slowly, he ran all the way back from the Jiangnan military town.
This was not unusual. In the martial arts world, martial artists were divided into seven realms, similar to the seven realms of heaven and man. It was common for martial artists in the upper three realms to move as fast as flying.
Someone came forward and asked the general to wait a moment, as they had already started boiling water for the general to bathe.
Lin Jigong glared and asked, "Is your mother dead?"
The servant was stunned, "No..."
"Yeah, no wonder you're not anxious." Lin Jigong said unhappily, "My mother is dying now! You still want me to take a hot bath before going over? Bring cold water!"
After that, several servants went to fetch several large buckets of cold water.
The general stood bareback in the yard, letting several people pour cold water on him to wash away his sweat and anger. It would be bad if the sweat smelled, but it would be bad if the patient was hit by the steaming anger of the warriors.
After changing into casual clothes, he strode through several courtyards and came to the back garden.
Since the founding of the Lin family, there have been only two things passed down from generation to generation: one is martial arts, and the other is filial piety.
The general had a set of eyebrows and eyes that were inherited from his ancestors. He was born with a fiery temper and looked ferocious when he smiled. When he didn't smile, he looked like a reckless devil.
But he is also an absolutely filial son.
As soon as the footsteps entered the backyard, they suddenly became lighter.
There were some maids and old women in the courtyard, all waiting quietly outside, not daring to make any noise.
The general also asked in a low voice, like a child who had done something wrong: "What happened?"
But his voice was too hoarse, and even if he lowered it by 99%, it still startled everyone in the yard.
Immediately, a maid turned around and reported: "The young doctor from Xuanhu Villa is checking the old lady's pulse, and the lady is accompanying her."
Lin Jigong rubbed his hands and asked nervously, "How is the little miracle doctor?"
The maid answered without hesitation: "Very handsome."
The general was so angry that he almost passed out. "Did I ask you what he looks like? I asked you how good his medical skills are!"
The little maidservant immediately pouted in grievance, "I don't know, I don't understand, and I dare not make random guesses."
"That's all."
The general didn't like to get angry with women. He waved his hand, took a deep breath, slowed down his pace, and walked gently into the house.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw through the screen a young man sitting by the bed, checking his mother's pulse. His wife stood beside him, watching nervously.
Lin Jigong approached almost on tiptoe.
Turning the screen, I saw that this young miracle doctor was indeed handsome.
With her hair tied in a bun, red lips and white teeth, and long flowing hair, she looks a bit like a boy or a girl. No wonder the maids are so obsessed with her.
At this moment, he was taking someone's pulse with his hand, looking very focused.
Seeing Lin Jigong come in, he turned around and smiled.
When Lin Jigong saw that he could still laugh, he felt that there was a way, so he nodded repeatedly.
At this critical moment of life and death, no matter how great an emperor or general you are, you have to be polite to the doctor.
After a while, he carefully checked and finally let go of the old man's hand.
After these actions, the old man was still unconscious, breathing barely, and it was obvious that he was dying.
Lin Jigong felt distressed and asked hurriedly, "Little doctor, how is my mother?"
The little doctor smiled and said, "It's okay."
"Huh!" Lin Jigong was overjoyed, but he didn't dare to make a noise, so he could only hug his wife tightly.
immediately.
Then the little doctor continued with a smile, "The old man is 85 years old this year. In his early years, he and his wife loved each other and lived in harmony. In his later years, his children and grandchildren were filial and he enjoyed the happiness of family life. He had a very blessed life. Today he is going west, which can be called a happy funeral."
Hearing this, the general blinked his big eyes.
The smile on his face gradually disappeared.
