Chapter 4 Ruthless

At noon the next day, Yu Chi and his friends arrived at a place called Mingyue City. As soon as they entered the city, they went straight to the restaurant. They were all hungry. The fish they caught last night was not long old, and they had not eaten in the morning.

"Bring two of your signature dishes and a pot of wine."

Yu Chi put a piece of silver on the table. The waiter served them tea first, took the silver, said "OK, wait a moment", and left.

Compared to Yu Chi, who was still sitting upright and pouring a cup of tea to drink, Gu Jue was already lying on the table without image. Yu Chi poured him a cup of tea and pushed it in front of him so that he could drink a few sips to ease the pain.

Gu Jue obediently drank it in one gulp, and drank the tea with a sense of grandeur.

They were bored here, but now was dinner time, when the restaurant was most crowded. When there were more people, there would be more talk, and when there were more talk, there would be more news.

Soon, Yu Chi heard the people at the table on the left talking in low voices.

"The second son of the Feng family has started looking for famous doctors again. It's been a year, and he has seen countless famous doctors, but the eldest son's symptoms haven't improved at all."

"Isn't that right?"

"I think he's probably lost his soul."

"Well, do you think it's possible that an enemy or a rival of the Feng family cast a spell on the eldest son?"

"It's possible."

...

The three people at the table on the left were drinking and chatting. They thought they were suppressing their voices, but the noise was not small, and Yu Chi and Gu Jue could hear it clearly.

But this matter is not a secret in Mingyue City, almost everyone knows it.

Yu Chi's eyes have been on the three people. Gu Jue noticed and looked over, and listened to the general situation.

In fact, the eldest son of the Feng family was originally a cheerful young man, but in the past year, he seemed to have lost his soul. He no longer smiled, and even didn't like to talk. He liked to be dazed and distracted when he had nothing to do.

The second son of the Feng family thought he was sick, but many doctors could not see the problem. They said that the eldest son was not sick, but his spirits were not good and his body was a little weak. He needed to take supplements to nourish his body.

It's not a disease.

There is no poisoning.

Yu Chi was distracted when listening, and Gu Jue just listened to it as gossip, without any extra thoughts, until their dishes came.

After three dishes and a soup, Gu Jue picked up the chopsticks and started eating. Yu Chi poured him a glass of wine.

"Can you drink?"

Gu Jue swallowed the food in his mouth, took the cup and drank it in one gulp. Just when Yu Chi thought he was refreshing, his throat was spicated by the wine. His expression was painful for a moment, and his eyebrows were wrinkled together.

Yu Chi saw that his eyes were red, and silently withdrew his hand that was about to give him another glass, and drank it himself.

The man whose throat was spicated quickly poured himself a cup of tea to suppress the spicy taste of wine in his mouth.

After they finished their meal, they left again. Yu Chi had no destination. To put it nicely, he was traveling and enjoying the local customs and people. To put it bluntly, he was just wandering around. He stayed wherever he went and continued to wander after a while.

Gu Jue thought Yu Chi was going to walk around Mingyue City first, until he saw Yu Chi asking a street vendor how to get to Feng Mansion, he realized something was not going to happen.

After Yu Chi asked, he turned around and threw a bag of sugar cake wrapped in oil paper to Gu Jue. It was sold by the small vendor, and Yu Chi bought it while asking for information, and gave the whole bag to Gu Jue. After

he gave it to Gu Jue, he turned around and left. Gu Jue looked at the sugar cake in his hand and caught up with Yu Chi.

"Why are you asking about Feng Mansion?"

"I'm going there to get free food and lodging."

Gu Jue was confused. "What?"

They were stopped at the door of Feng Mansion. The doorman notified the housekeeper. When the housekeeper came out, Yu Chi and the others had been standing at the door for a while.

The housekeeper first bowed politely, and then asked Yu Chi's name.

"Just tell your second son that doctor Yu Chi wants to see you."

The housekeeper was stunned. The man in front of him was dressed luxuriously, and his every move was like that of a rich young man from some wealthy family. The word "doctor" had nothing to do with him.

Looking at the man next to him, he had a long sword hanging around his waist and was holding an oil-paper bag in his hand, which seemed to be a snack. He looked like a guard.

He just took a quick look and invited Yu Chi and the others to go into the front hall to rest for a while.

After all, one should not judge

a person by his appearance. The second young master was eager to find a doctor. If it was really Doctor Yu Chi, there might be hope that he could cure the eldest young master. After placing the person in the front hall, the housekeeper withdrew to look for the second young master Feng. Gu Jue sat next to Yu Chi and looked at the layout of the Feng family's front hall.

It can be seen that this is a very wealthy family. He remembered that he seemed to have heard someone say during lunch that the Feng family was the richest family in Mingyue City. His family's business spanned the north, south and west, and the family's wealth was enough to rival a country.

Now it seems to be true.

After half a cup of tea, they waited for a young man to come in a hurry. His face was a little childish, but his personality was very mature.

He stood in front of the two of them, and finally shook Gu Jue's hand. His originally calm face revealed a hint of excitement, and he called out to him.

"Doctor Yuchi!"

Gu Jue was stunned. He pulled back his hand in a panic, blushing with embarrassment, and pointed at Yuchi.

"That one, that one is Yuchi."

Second Master Feng was also stunned. He then looked at Yuchi, who had already turned his head away and was trying not to laugh.

He used to be alone, and there was almost no chance of being mistaken. Now he had Gu Jue with him.

This handsome man with clear eyes was indeed more like a doctor than himself.

But his reaction is really funny~

"Sorry, Doctor Yu Chi, I'm Feng Wuqing, sorry for being rude."

Yu Chi waved his hand, "It's okay, I was passing by and heard that the second son was looking for a doctor for the eldest son, so I came to disturb you."

"How can it be considered a disturbance? It's a blessing for our Feng family to have the genius doctor Yu Chi come to our house. The doctor hasn't found a place to stay yet, I'll ask someone to arrange it immediately."

Feng Wuqing was about to call for help, but Yu Chi stopped him.

"Let's see the eldest son first."

Feng Wuqing moved away and made a gesture of invitation to Yu Chi, "Okay, doctor, please."

Yu Chi glanced at Gu Jue and motioned him to follow. Gu Jue followed him carrying the candy cake given by Yu Chi. Feng Wuqing led the way for them and they came to a courtyard called Jiaoyue Pavilion.

In addition to some flowers and plants, Jiaoyue Pavilion was almost full of plum trees, but some of them were withered and even had few leaves. As soon as he

reached the door, he met a man who opened the door and walked out. The man was wearing a blue and white cloud pattern outfit and had his hair standing up. When he saw Feng Wuqing, he smiled at him.

"Wuqing is here, are you here to see Wuyou?"

Feng Wuqing did not answer, but just glanced at him, with a look on his face that said, "Isn't this nonsense?"

Then he pushed open the door of Feng Wuyou's room, and a plum fragrance came to his face. The smell was so strong that Yu Chi, who was a few meters behind Feng Wuqing, felt dizzy.

Gu Jue even moved closer to Yu Chi unconsciously. The fragrance was too strong. He still felt that the cold sandalwood fragrance on Yu Chi was better.

Feng Wuqing turned around and made way for Yu Chi to go out.

"Doctor, please."

Yu Chi nodded and took Gu Jue in. Before Feng Wuqing went in, he glanced at the man next to him. Seeing that he was still smiling, he glared at him.

When the door closed again, the man put away the smile on his face and took a deep look at the closed door. It was unclear whether he was looking at the door or looking through the door at the person inside.

Finally turned around and left

A young man sat on the couch in the room, leaning against the window, looking at the withered plum branches outside, his eyes were a little dull, and he seemed not to notice the person behind him.

Feng Wuqing called him as if he didn't hear him, until Feng Wuqing called him for the third time, the voice was a little loud, Feng Wuyou just came back to his senses and looked at Feng Wuqing.

"Wuqing, do you think the white plum blossoms will bloom this year?"

Feng Wuqing walked to his side, pursed his lips for a long time before saying "Yes, brother, they will bloom this year."

Feng Wuyou looked outside again "Then, what about Mingze, will he come back this year?"

"Yes, brother."

Feng Wuyou was silent and didn't answer again.

Yu Chi observed Feng Wuyou's appearance. He was indeed a little dull and thin. His wrist bones were clearly visible and his eyes were dark, as if he didn't get enough rest.

Especially his eyes, which were lifeless and unfocused. With his thin body and pale skin, he looked like a dying man.

"Brother, you haven't been feeling well recently. I asked a doctor to come and see you."

Feng Wuqing sat next to Feng Wuyou. After Feng Wuyou nodded, he looked at Yu Chi and said "please" to Yu Chi.

Doctor Yu Chi's reputation as a miracle doctor gradually spread a few years ago. He would not treat simple illnesses, people who were full of evil, people who bullied the weak, and people he looked down on.

Feng Wuqing held Feng Wuyou's hand and placed it on the small table, so that Yu Chi could feel his pulse. Yu

Chi felt his pulse and asked, "How's your appetite?"

Feng Wuqing shook his head and said, "I don't eat much."

Every time the food was served, it was almost the same as when it was taken back, and he could not eat more than two bites. He thought that this might be how his brother lost weight.

Yu Chi asked several questions, but Feng Wuqing answered them all. Feng Wuyou didn't say anything. Finally, he looked into Feng Wuyou's eyes and asked, "How's your memory?"

Feng Wuyou finally looked at Yu Chi and burst into tears without warning.

"I'm almost forgetting everything about him. I'm almost forgetting even him."
