Seeing the doctor about to leave, Grey Falcon panicked and immediately drew his sword, holding it to the doctor's neck. "You can't leave! If you want to live, quickly find a way to save my master!"
"This...this...you are being so unreasonable!" The doctor was both angry and scared.
Looking at these burly men in front of him, whose aura was like that of killing gods, it seemed that his old life was about to end today!
Liu Yingying finally couldn't stand it anymore and said sarcastically, "What kind of man makes things difficult for an old man!"
A slightly mocking voice rang out, sounding particularly abrupt in the room.
Grey Falcon already disliked her, and now his killing intent surged forth. He pointed his sword at her and roared, "It's all because of you, woman! If you don't want to die, shut your mouth!"
"Heh, since you're going to kill me anyway, what does it matter whether I shut up or not?"
The gray falcon choked on its own words.
Liu Yingying continued casually, "I see that your master is not only poisoned, but also has external injuries. In this situation, killing the doctor will not help. You might as well let him go and do your master some good karma!"
The gray falcon could no longer contain itself and roared, "Shut up, or I'll kill you!"
Just as his longsword was about to pierce Liu Yingying's chest, he heard her suddenly say coldly, "Are you sure you want to kill me? If you kill me, there will be no one else in this world who can save your master."
Upon hearing this, Grey Falcon's hand trembled, and his longsword fell to the ground, but he couldn't hide the excitement in his voice: "What did you say? You can save my master?"
"Of course!" Liu Yingying said confidently.
He glanced again at the guard who still held the sword to his neck, "Why aren't you taking the sword away?"
The man looked at the gray falcon with some hesitation.
Helpless, Grey Falcon could only grit his teeth and say, "Fine, I'll give you one chance. If you can't cure my master, I'll make you pay with your life!"
"What nonsense are you spouting!" Liu Yingying rolled her eyes speechlessly, walked to the young master's bedside, and began to take his pulse.
Tsk... This pulse does match what the doctor said; it's definitely poisoning...
She looked up at the Grey Falcon and said, "I have a habit when I treat patients: there can't be any outsiders present!"
"Also, you need to go and call my little assistant over."
"It's my eldest nephew!"
Grey Falcon looked like he was gritting his teeth. Although he didn't trust the woman in front of him, he had no other choice but to do as Liu Yingying asked.
Soon, Xue Ye was brought in, while Gray Falcon and his men stood guard outside the door.
Are you alright?
Seeing that she was safe and sound, Xue Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Yingying put her index finger to her lips in a "shh" gesture. "You're the only person I can trust here. Now I need you to guard this place for me. No matter what happens, you can't let anyone in!"
Xue Ye seemed to understand something, nodded, and gripped the short sword in his hand, standing guard by the door.
Liu Yingying took a syringe from the mall, first gave Grandpa Gong an intravenous injection, and then began to take off his clothes to check his injuries...
But this scene made Xue Ye feel extremely uncomfortable.
He wanted to remind Liu Yingying that men and women should not touch each other, but he was afraid of disturbing her, so he held back.
After pulling open the young master's shirt, Liu Yingying indeed saw a shocking wound on his waist, clearly caused by a sharp weapon.
Moreover, due to improper wound treatment, it has now become inflamed and infected, and is still oozing black blood...
It must have been caused by the person who injured him coating the weapon with a deadly poison!
Due to limited resources, Liu Yingying was unable to extract the poisoned blood for analysis and could only use her knowledge of both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine to treat the patient…
With the help of a bunch of detoxifying and anti-inflammatory drugs, Liu Yingying finally completed the entire treatment process. She then opened the door to let Gray Falcon and the others in.
"Master!" Gray Falcon noticed that his master was still unconscious and immediately glared at Liu Yingying with hostility.
"Didn't you say you could cure my master? Why hasn't he woken up yet?"
Liu Yingying was speechless. "I only said I could save him and keep him alive, not that I could wake him up immediately after the treatment!"
Under the fiery glare of the Grey Falcon, she had no choice but to add, "Don't worry, the poison has been neutralized, and he should wake up by tomorrow morning at the latest!"
What happened next was no longer her concern, and Liu Yingying and Xue Ye returned to their respective rooms.
Of course, there were still the young master's subordinates guarding the outside.
This is a form of house arrest.
However, she didn't care. Anyway, they would leave as soon as the young master woke up the next morning.
I never want to run into those plague carriers again!
The gray falcon stayed in the young master's room until the eastern sky began to lighten, at which point the young master finally woke up.
Grey Falcon immediately rushed forward excitedly; "Master, you're finally awake! How are you feeling?"
"Should I have someone send some food over?"
The young master could clearly feel his physical condition improving at this moment. Could it be that his poison had been neutralized?
Grey Falcon quickly explained, "It was that Madam Liu. I never expected that she would know medicine. By sheer chance, she cured your poison."
Upon hearing this, the young master showed a hint of surprise in his eyes, and then asked him to help him sit up.
Unbuttoning his clothes, he examined the wound on his abdomen and saw that the original knife wound was now wrapped in gauze.
Although his body was somewhat weak, he no longer had the symptoms of poisoning he had previously experienced.
Where is Madam Liu?
Grey Falcon then explained the situation to him truthfully.
After a moment of silence, the young master said, "Tomorrow morning, go and thank Madam Liu for me, and then let them leave!"
When Liu Yingying woke up, she found that the young master and his group had left the inn at some point.
On the table in her room was a bag of gold, weighing a full hundred taels!
Wow! No wonder they're nobles and aristocrats; they're so generous!
Xue Ye and Xiao Xue packed their belongings, and after the three of them ate a bowl of plain noodles at the inn, they continued their journey.
After traveling for another three or four days, Liu Yingying and the others finally arrived at Jinling City, the closest city to the capital.
Throughout their journey, the weather was a mix of heavy and light rain. On the day they entered the city, a sudden downpour began.
As Liu Yingying sat in the carriage, she looked at the bustling streets of Jinling City, but her mind was also preoccupied with the canals in Baotian Town.
I wonder how Brother Lu and the others are doing with their digging?
If Changning County were to experience such a torrential downpour, the Luohe River dam would most likely breach...
She lifted the curtain and said to Xue Ye, "Let's find an inn to stay in first! We'll set off early tomorrow morning."
After parking the car in front of an inn, Liu Yingying led the two to the counter and asked the waiter for three superior private rooms.
With the young master's generous donation of one hundred taels of gold, she should enjoy herself to the fullest...
