At noon, in front of the medicinal hall.
“Zhu Yue, go home first! Remember you still owe me money, I will ask for it in the future when I drop by.” Feng Jiu patted his shoulder and said with a smile.
“You’re really not leaving? Are you sure you will be alright staying here?” Zhu Yue asked, a little worried.
“I’ll be fine, the seniors here take good care of me. Also, since I’m an idler and often travel about, there’s nothing wrong with me staying here for ten over days. But your body hasn’t recovered yet, on your way back in the carriage you can heal your injuries.”
“Alright then! You must be careful.” After hearing Feng Jiu’s words, he had no choice but to leave. After all, he couldn’t afford to offend the people in the medicinal hall and there wasn’t much he could do to help if he had stayed.
“Go, you don’t have to worry about those people, it’s been sorted and they won’t bother you again.”
“Well, I’ll be leaving then.”
After thanking him, he got into the horse carriage and looked at the young man standing in front of the medicinal hall. His eyes were fixed on his face, he wanted to keep his face in his mind so that even if he never saw him again in the future, he would always remember him.
“Little Brother, are you rest assured now?” The old physician said with a smile: “Come, come, let’s go in. I want to discuss your method of stitching up the wound.”
Therefore, Feng Jiu followed him inside and was held up talking to him for over two hours. Finally, she said: “I’m going back to rest, I will go and take a look tonight!”
“Alright, you have a good rest.” The old man said and watched Feng Jiu leave then wrote down everything Feng Jiu had said in the notebook.
Back in the room, Feng Jiu got into bed to take a nap and didn’t get up till evening. She requested for dinner to be prepared and after eating, she saw that the sky was still light and decided to take a walk around and came to the courtyard next to hers.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, she felt dozens of eyes on her. She continued inside without a care and saw the old man in grey and the old physician by the bedside.
“Hehehe, Little Brother is here!” The old physician smiled and walked forwards speaking: “Young Lord is a little feverish, but after I fed him some of the liquid medicine you prescribed, his fever has subsided. Even the red and swollen areas around his wound have subsided.”
“Mmm, let me take a look.” She nodded and stepped forward to take his pulse: “Well, the poison has been dispelled and his pulse is stable.”
“Yes! Little Brother, your medicine is a magical liquid, I have never seen anything so effective.” The old physician said, his eyes glowed and he asked: “Little Brother, do you have anymore? I am willing to buy it from you at a high price.”
“Good things are always few and harder to come by, besides, your Young Lord doesn’t need it anymore. His condition is no longer life threatening. Ordinary medicine will do.” She smiled and said: “Since everything is fine then I will go back first.”
“How can you leave?” The old man in grey said: “Didn’t you say that tonight was a dangerous period? You should be here just in case something happens.”
Feng Jiu was just about to say something when she saw him take a box out and handed it to her: “This is your reward.”
Upon seeing this, she took the box and opened it. When she saw that the box was full of cordyceps, she raised her eyebrows: “Is it really for me?” At first glance, the quality of the cordyceps was not of ordinary quality. He actually took it out so casually to offer it to her, they were indeed not ordinary people!
“Yes.” The old man replied. It was undeniable that his medical skills and medicine liquids were extraordinary, and he was more than willing to make friends with such a person.
