Gu Yan did not hide any information: “There are these herbs on the mountain where you captured me.”
“I’ll send someone to the mountain to pick them immediately.”
Yin Shi seemed to have seen hope. His eyes lit up as he turned to look at Yin Xie and Yin Yue. He instructed: “Bring your men to the mountain and search for them.”
“There’s no time.” Gu Yan poured a bucket of cold water at them (figure of speech), it made their hearts freezing cold.
Yin Shi’s hope that had just been raised was instantly extinguished. He was stunned for a long time and could not react.
It also extinguished all their hopes. The eyes of everyone present turned gloomy.
Gu Yan took in their gazes. He glanced at the man who was still unconscious on the bed, to be able to gain so many loyal subordinates, this meant that he was a capable man.
He was indeed capable, otherwise, how could he establish such a mysterious Crimson Sand organization just within a few years.
Yin Yue suddenly broke free from restraints and rushed over, she grabbed Gu Yan’s hand and asked anxiously: “I don’t believe, just tell us what kind of medicinal herbs you need, I’ll use my fastest speed to go find them. I’ll definitely make it in time.”
Gu Yan looked at the agitated Yin Yue and felt a little pity.
Yin Xie stood forward: “Yin Yue is right, how would we know if we never try, just tell us, we’ll definitely be able to find it.”
Yin Shi also reacted, he looked at the medical genius Gu Yan and said in a somewhat humble tone, “Mr Gu, please tell me what herbs you need, I’ll get them to find it as quickly as possible.”
Gu Yan sighed helplessly: “It’ll take you two days to get to that mountain and back. It’ll depend on your luck to find the herbs. If you’re lucky, you’ll be able to find them within two days on the mountain. If you’re unlucky, you might not even be able to find them in a week. But regardless of whichever possibility, there’s not enough time.”
On these words, Yin Xie grabbed the front of Gu Yan’s shirt, as he was anxious, the veins on his forehead bulged and his voice raised due to his anger: “I don’t believe it, you must have said that on purpose to stop us from finding the herbs, so that our master could not be saved.”
Gu Yan frowned, he had seen many patients’ families being agitated, so he could understand how they feel. However, he was a little emotionless and unhappy towards these professional killers.
He was kidnapped, he was not invited here to do treatment!
“Yin Xie, calm down.” Yin Shi grabbed the agitated Yin Xie and forcefully pulled him away. He looked at Gu Yan. “Mr Gu, we want to try.”
“Okay.” Gu Yan just let them be, if they wanted to waste time, he would let them, he had nothing to lose.
“Wait a moment. I’ll go find the illustration, otherwise you won’t recognize it.”
After Gu Yan’s word, he walked out.
Yin Yue looked at her master who was still unconscious on the bed. She was very worried as her master was still unconscious.
When Gu Yan passed by her, she pulled him back. “Let my master wake up first.”
Gu Yan stopped and turned to look at Yin Yue, he then looked at the man on the bed, turned and walked to his bedside.
He opened the medical box on the bedside table, took out the needle pouch from inside, and spread it on the table. His well-defined fingers pulled out a silver needle from the pouch, took the man’s hand out of the blanket, and started to apply the needle on him.
The group standing by the bedside, all looked at Gu Yan and their master, as if they were expecting their master to wake up anytime soon.
Gu Yan finished applying the needles on several important acupuncture points, put the silver needles back into the medical box after disinfecting them.
“He will wake up soon. I’ll go get the pictures of the medicinal herbs.”
After Gu Yan finished speaking, he walked straight out of the room.
As soon as Gu Yan left, the group gathered around the bed and stared at the man on the bed.
The man on the bed had a pale face, and his lips were pale. If it weren’t for the slight rise and fall of his chest proving that he was still alive, it would be easy for anyone to misunderstood.
“Why isn’t master awake yet?” Yin Xie looked at him for a while and couldn’t help but ask.
“Let’s wait and see.” Yin Shi was calmer than Yin Xie. Looking at his master on the bed, he was extremely anxious.
However, no matter how anxious he was, he had to wait.
Yin Shi seemed to have remembered something and said to the maid not far behind him, “Go boil a bowl of lung-nourishing soup for master.”
Hearing that, the maid turned and walked out of the room, to prepare the soup in the kitchen.
After a while, the pale lips of the man on the bed moved: “Baby…”
The man’s voice was hoarse and very low, as if he was murmuring in his sleep, it was hard to hear clearly.
When Yin Yue saw it, she revealed a happy expression: “Master is awake, finally awake.”
Yin Shi saw it as well, he took a step forward and asked in a low voice: “Master, are you feeling better? I’ll get someone to boil some lung-nourishing soup, you’ll feel better after drinking it.”
The man tilted his head and his bloodless lips moved again. “Baby…”
Baby?
Yin Shi asked in a low voice, “Master, who are you calling?”
“Baby.” The man called out again. The volume of his voice was slightly raised, but it was very hoarse.
When Yin Yue heard her master call out ‘Baby’, which he also called ‘Baby’ earlier. She was puzzled, who is the ‘Baby’?
Hearing his master called ‘Baby’ again, Yin Shi was a little confused. “Master, there’s no baby in the villa, please tell us and we’ll go look for it.”
The man on the bed coughed a few times and moved his body, he was already awake, he tilted his head, as if he was looking for someone.
At this moment, the maid brought the lung-nourishing soup toward Yin Shi. “The soup is ready.”
Yin Shi turned to take a look at the soup, the soup was still steaming, he immediately took it and looked at the man on the bed. “Master, please drink some lung-nourishing soup.”
“I’ll help master up.” Yin Yue took two steps forward and stood by the bed. She bent down and looked at her master. “Master, I’ll help you up.”
The man shook his head. “No need.”
“Master…” Yin Yue hesitated.
The man supported himself up on the bed with both hands and slowly sat up.
Yin Yue hurriedly took two soft pillows and placed them behind her master.
The man leaned on the soft pillows, he was still a little dizzy, he pursed his lips and was a little unhappy.
Yin Shi handed the soup bowl to the man: “Master, please have some soup.”
The man stretched out his hand, moved it in the air twice before he could touch the bowl. he then picked it up but did not start to drink. Instead, he asked, “Is she in the room?”
When Yin Yue heard this, she roughly guessed who his master was referring to, it was that woman, she pursed her lips and did not say a word.
She?
Yin Shi suddenly remembered the woman who had been with his master for the past two days. He turned and looked around the room. When he did not see the woman’s figure, he replied, “Master, she’s not here.”
The man sighed. “Bring her here.”
Today was the last day, she would be leaving tomorrow.
He had already fainted, yet she did not feel sorry for him.
“I’ll go look for her now.” Yin Shi said, then he turned and walked out of the room.
Yin Xie glanced at Yin Yue, as if asking her why she didn’t say that the woman was in the cold storage?
Yin Yue felt that Yin Xie was looking at her, she pursed her lips and didn’t say anything, as if she has no intention to say it.
As Yin Xie knew where the woman was, he couldn’t help but feel a little guilty when he saw his master waiting.
