Presumably, that old man was invited over by the Li family with a great deal of money.

Originally, he had planned on serving this old man well, but it seemed like Ah Zi wouldn't be using him for now.

Gu Man didn't want to do so many things, so he brought Li Zongjiu and Li Gui in the carriage and returned to the Gu household.

The Gu Clan's appearance was somewhat simple and unadorned. The large black and white walls were in unison, giving off a rather capable citrus feel.

Li Zongjiu and the other two got off the horse carriage and observed the Gu family's surroundings. Li Zongjiu's heart couldn't help but be moved, he never thought that the Gu family, as one of the Four Great Clans, would be so low-key. This was also the first time Li Zongjiu came to the Gu family's territory.

"This way, please."

Gu Man Dao led Li Zongjiu and Luo Huan through the small road. In front of them was a bamboo forest garden, and outside the bamboo forest garden, there were many guards, servants, and the like wandering around.

"This is the old tutor's resting area. If you didn't invite him, please wait outside!"

Gu Man said. This was the meaning of 'do not enter unless invited'. It meant that no one else was allowed to enter.

That means this Li Gui can't go in. Originally, with Li Zongjiu's bad temper, since you invited me over and also want to block my people outside, then wouldn't it mean that you're stepping on my head and pooping?!

But Li Zongjiu knew of their situation.

The entire Gu household did not have any extravagant aura, and every part of them gave off an orderly and capable feeling. In this kind of environment, there was no such thing as looking down on others, and it should be inconvenient.

Although Li Zongjiu was arrogant, he was not an unreasonable person.

Under normal circumstances, reason is reason. As long as you don't offend me, I'll lecture you.

But if you want to go against my interests, then Li Zongjiu will use his fists to go against yours.

"You can stay here for now."

Li Zongjiu said.

After all, this was the Gu family's territory. Li Zongjiu had just stood at the heart of the storm yesterday, and if he didn't know what had happened, it would be very bad.

"Old brother, don't worry. I can guarantee that your family's young lord will be absolutely safe in our Gu family. Otherwise, cut my head off!"

Gu Man roared. It was as if if if you didn't believe me, then I'll give it my all.

This made Li Gui roll his eyes as well. Who knew if what you said was true?

However, since even Li Zongjiu had spoken, then he might as well wait here for a while.

If something really happened, then even if he, Li Gui, were to put his life on the line, he would definitely bring Li Zongjiu out.

"Please come in."

Li Zongjiu was brought to a house by Gu Man, and around the house were some precious medicinal ingredients. With a bit of it, Li Zongjiu could already see some medicinal ingredients that were unobtainable even in the Sunset City market.

There seemed to be quite a number of figures gathering within the room.

"This is Mr. Lee? "He's a bit younger than I thought?"

Before they had even entered the door, a faint fragrance had already assaulted them. This fragrance could easily cause a person to let go of their guard. At the same time, the other party's voice gave them a numb feeling.

"I'm Gu Yanhong, the main butler of the Gu family."

Gu Yanhong?

Li Zongjiu raised his head and glanced at the woman in front of him. Her figure was plump and full of forehead, which was a type that Li Zongjiu liked. However, Li Zongjiu was still a teenager right now.

Li Zongjiu had heard of Gu Yan Hong's name before, but his understanding of his was only limited to this.

It was said that Gu Yan Hong didn't possess the bloodline of the Gu family, but rather an abandoned baby that Old Man Gu had picked up on the battlefield. She was the adopted daughter of Old Man Gu.

"If you have something to say, just say it."

Li Zongjiu said indifferently.

It was said that the storm brought about yesterday was caused by this youth. To be able to bring about such a great storm, and even have the willpower to not fall on the waves, it showed that Li Zongjiu was not an ordinary person.

"Our family's old man has a relapse. If you can save him, my Gu family will reward you handsomely!"

After she finished speaking, Gu Yan Hong brought Li Zongjiu in as well. Gu Man didn't enter, but stood guard at the entrance!

This was Old Man Gu's room, so the security was tight.

Furthermore, Gu Man didn't know much about medicine, so he could only shoulder the role of guard.

When Li Zongjiu entered, he saw that there were at least five groups of people sitting in the house.

After being slightly surprised for a while, Li Zongjiu also sat in an empty seat, and did not exchange pointers with any of these people. The five people were seated in their own seats, and some of them even had memories, which indicated that they were probably famous doctors within a hundred mile radius of Sunset City.

"I have no choice but to hastily gather everyone here today. If there is any place I can disturb, please forgive me." After she finished speaking, she also gently bowed. A few old men also quickly stood up and clasped their hands.

"The head steward is too polite. It is our duty to practice medicine and cure illnesses."

The Hall Master of the Return of Spring Hall was known as the 'ingenious hand of rejuvenation', and he was quite famous within a hundred miles. It was said that when this old man was treating an illness, he would often burn a piece of talisman paper for the patient to drink.

After a few days, the patient would either die or recover.

"Very well. Regardless of whether we succeed or fail, I hope that the masters will not spread this matter to the outside world."

Although her voice was beautiful and sweet, it still made one feel that their skin was cold and their body couldn't help but shiver. If there was any problem with this, then it was obvious that they could feel the clear and cold murderous intent mixed within.

"It won't be a problem to treat the old tutor's illness, but the few of us here are all famous doctors within a hundred mile radius. It's only right that we're all gathered here."

"But Chief Steward, what is this boy? Does he know how to treat illnesses, why is he on the same level as us? If I, the Heavenly Medicine King, am on the same level as this ignorant child in the eyes of the butler, then even if he were to cut off my hands, I will not say it! "

A hempen-clothed old man in black and white stripes stood up and said.

Usually, in these kinds of occasions, there would be those who did not know their place and would suddenly launch an attack.

Li Zongjiu was still playing with the lid of the teacup in his hand, when he suddenly felt that the gazes of the people in the surroundings were all focused on him.

"Wait, what's that? Are you talking about me?"

Li Zongjiu seemed to only just react.

This old man was really tired of living, wasn't he, of course, of following him?

"Brat, this old man is untalented. I have studied the Thousand Meridians of Hundred Herbs and recited them like the back of my hand. I have identified twenty thousand different medicinal herbs, have practiced medicine for ten years, and have treated countless diseases." Little brat, this old man is untalented and has read the Thousand Meridians of Hundred Herbs and recited them like the back of my mind.

The Heavenly Medicine King pointed at Li Zongjiu and enunciated every word. Although he did not open his mouth to curse, his aura was extremely overbearing.

The entire audience was quiet, no one spoke up for Li Zongjiu, and even the rest of the old men snorted. They coldly turned their heads away, as if they were unwilling to even look at Li Zongjiu.

The Heaven Returning Medicine King felt extremely proud of himself. Naturally, there was no such thing as first in the world of medicine. He had purposely spoke of his experiences and experiences just now, as though he was boasting to steal the person's life.

By now, these people should know how powerful I am.

"Do you know how to write the word 'die'?"

Li Zongjiu looked at the Heaven Returning Medicine King's eyes and said seriously.
