Auction?
Could this be the place Bai Shiyun mentioned before where one could obtain a lot of rare medicinal herbs?
"Since I've said that I will repay you, then I will do as I've said. The auction will be in three days. Whether you want to go or not is up to you. Get out of the car."
As Bai Shiyun said that, she stopped her Land Rover and looked at Zhong Wentao coolly.
Opening the car door, Zhong Wentao got off. Before he could thank them, he saw the Land Rover walk away.
He scratched his head and put away the Entry Letter. Only then did he go back to the 'Ciji Hall'.
"Smelly old man, didn't you guys act arrogantly earlier?" "You have been blinded by your dog eyes for injuring our Dongxing Gang members!"
"Brother Black Dog, stop asking, just cripple his hands and see how he practices medicine."
"Kill him and bring back our dignity!"
Zhong Wentao returned to the 'Ciji Hall', but before he even went in, he heard a chaos inside. It was very noisy.
Outside, there was a circle of onlookers discussing in low voices.
"What's wrong?"
Zhong Wentao pulled on the person beside him and asked, when he saw that it was Zhong Wentao, he immediately became excited.
"Little Godly Doctor, leave quickly!"
That person explained in a low voice, "The people from the Dongxing Gang have come to seek revenge. They're calling you by name. Quickly, run!"
"That's right, that's right. Let's leave before they discover you!"
The surrounding neighbors were all very worried about Zhong Wentao. If a skilled Little Godly Doctor were to lose both their hands, how many people would lose the chance to be cured?
Zhong Wentao tactfully thanked the people for their worry and squeezed through the crowd. With a glance, he saw Zhou Cangzhu on the ground and the clamoring people of the Dongxing Gang.
Many of the things inside the Ciji Hall were smashed and the herbs were crushed into powder due to their shouts. All of them caused Zhong Wentao's heart to ache.
"Stop!"
Zhong Wentao shouted loudly. Only then did the people from the Dongxing Gang see his existence.
Zhou Cangzhu fell to the ground and shouted, pushing all the responsibility onto Zhong Wentao.
There was no time to argue with him, Zhong Wentao had already knocked down the person in front of him with one punch.
The Dongxing Gang actually dared to come!
"Stinky brat, you still dare to attack in front of me, Black Dog? I think you're tired of living!"
As the black dog spoke, it threw the cigarette in its hand onto Zhou Cangzhu's body and ruthlessly stomped it to death, causing Zhou Cangzhu to scream again in pain.
Zhong Wentao did not speak, he only assumed a battle stance.
The black dog cried out, and sent a kick towards Zhong Wentao's face.
This was his last resort. The Black Dog Kill had relied on this to become the little leader of the Dongxing Gang.
Zhong Wentao's body did not understand. Deep in his left hand, he grabbed onto the neck of the black dog in a split-second.
Before everyone could understand what was happening, they saw Black Dog explain that as he installed the 'Ciji Hall', he then fell onto the ground and shouted loudly.
"My arm is broken!"
The black dog shouted, covering its injured arm with its hand as it broke out in cold sweat.
Seeing this situation, the lackeys were all extremely shocked, hesitating as they rushed towards Zhong Wentao.
He stepped forward and helped Zhou Cangzhu up, then squatted down and examined him. Two of his ribs were broken, and even his nose was broken.
Regardless if the people from the Dongxing Gang were still around, he brought Zhou Cangzhu to the room where the patient was treated. After settling him down, he came out again.
All that was left were his adoring neighbors.
"That's right, to be able to beat away a bad guy in a few moves, Old Zhou is definitely not as capable as you."
Only after a long while did these neighbors leave, allowing Zhong Wentao time to treat Zhou Cangzhu properly. At least they had to make Zhou Cangzhu look better before he returned, or else Zihan would definitely cry.
In the room, Zhou Cangzhu was in so much pain that he was struggling non-stop.
"You'd better not move, or it'll hurt even more."
With a cold face, Zhong Wentao felt very helpless.
Zhou Cangzhu was also a Chinese medicine, did he really have to remind him to do these things?
"Stinking brat, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be like this. It's all because of you that I'm harmed. You still have the nerve to say that!"
Zhou Cangzhu hated him to the core. How was this a god of wealth?
"Ouch …"
Zhou Cangzhu's voice filled the entire 'Ciji Hall', but unfortunately, no one could save him.
After treating Zhou Cangzhu, Zhong Wentao went out and closed the door, leaving a small door waiting for Zhou Zihan to come back.
When he got to his room, he sat on the bed and revealed a pained expression.
He rolled up the sleeve of his left hand. His entire wrist swelled up into a huge steamed bun. It was caused by the blood on his wrist when he grabbed the neck of the black dog.
He was also injured, but no one knew about it.
He took out the safflower oil from the cabinet and poured it on his wrist. His right hand gathered energy and slowly attached it to the swollen area. Then, he rubbed it vigorously.
Unable to hold back his laughter, he bit his lips tightly and cold sweat began to drip down his forehead.
It had been five hundred years, but this was the first time he let himself be injured.
This body was simply too fragile. He was only injured after taking one blow from the other. The difference in strength between them was too great compared to five years ago.
Zhong Wentao touched the Entry Letter in his jacket pocket. Zhong Wentao was determined to see how many precious medicinal ingredients there were in this auction, he was determined to get them!
"Big Brother Zhong? "Father?"
After placing down his sleeves, Zhong Wentao calmly walked out.
He received Zhou Zihan's bag with a smile, and was a little sorry that he didn't pick her up today.
Zhou Zihan was actually a very considerate person. He understood that Zhong Wentao would be very tired after sending her off everyday, so he didn't pay too much attention to her.
"Where's Dad? I'm so hungry. "
Sitting on the chair, Zhou Zihan asked curiously.
Zhou Cangzhu was resting inside, he did not have the strength to cook.
"Let's go out and eat."
Zhong Wentao said with a smile, he did not plan to let Zhou Zihan know about Zhou Cangzhu's situation so quickly.
"Hmm?"
"If daddy isn't home, I'll show you a thing or two. Big Brother Zhong, you've worked hard today, just sit here and wait for the meal to start."
Zhou Zihan laughed as he spoke, and directly walked into the kitchen to cook. Zhong Wentao heaved a sigh of relief, he had managed to fool her for the moment.
From this angle, he could just see Zhou Zihan busying himself in the kitchen.
The smile on his face was very innocent.
For this kind of smile, he wanted to make himself stronger and protect everything that Zhou Zihan and she cared about!
Lan Shan mansion.
"Shiyun, you've never been interested in auctions. For you to suddenly ask me to get you two tickets, shouldn't you tell me who you want to see with?"
In the beautiful living room, a man in a suit was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, his eyes never leaving Bai Shiyun's beautiful figure.
"I've already given the Entry Letter to you, what else do you want to ask?"
Bai Shiyun took a sip of the champagne.
If it wasn't for the auction or his old man holding the event, she wouldn't have asked him for a ticket and wouldn't have gotten into trouble.
"Since you're going to the auction, how about you be my partner?"
The man laughed and spoke as he got closer to Bai Shiyun, causing Bai Shiyun to feel more and more disgusted. The hand holding the wine cup was a little unsteady, as he was afraid that it would spill onto the snow-white carpet in the next second.
"Master Liu, I advise you to stop dreaming. I have already agreed to be someone's companion. You don't have to worry about leaving."
With a light smile, Bai Shiyun pushed the man away and left. The maid sent him off politely, causing the man's expression to become even uglier.
It was just a woman, he wanted to see who Bai Shiyun would go with on the day of the auction, who would dare to snatch his female companion!
Zhong Wentao did not know anything about these, but eating the food Zhou Zihan cooked with a smile on his face was indeed much better than Zhou Cangzhu's cooking.
Luckily, Zhou Cangzhu was injured, otherwise he would not have such an oral treatment.
"Why isn't dad back yet?"
Looking at the gradually darkening sky outside, Zhou Zihan was a little worried.
Zhong Wentao sneaked a look at the room Zhou Cangzhu was in, and felt a little guilty.
Zhou Cangzhu was clearly not far away, but he pretended to be clueless. Was it too hypocritical?
"Zi Han …"
Putting down the tableware, Zhong Wentao asked softly.
"Your father is in the room inside. It's just that today, people from the Dongxing Gang came to find me for revenge, and accidentally hurt him …"
Before he finished speaking, Zhou Zihan had already ran inside, his eyes filled with tears, and it hurt Zhong Wentao's heart.
"Zi Han, Big Brother Zhong promises you, I will definitely become stronger!"
Gently patting Zhou Zihan's back, Zhong Wentao promised sincerely.
Zhou Zihan only nodded lightly, and cried silently.
Three days later, three hours before the auction would begin, Zhong Wentao arrived at the Ocean Sky Hotel which was holding the auction. The auction was on the twenty-first floor of the hotel.
I came here early to check on the situation, to prepare for anything that might happen.
He walked to the entrance of the hotel and wanted to enter, but was stopped by a neatly dressed security guard.
"Sir, you can't enter without proper clothes."
The security guards coldly said, making Zhong Wentao feel like he was being discriminated against.
How could he not be properly dressed?
Zhou Cangzhu had given him the clothes he wore when he was young, otherwise, it would have been called wearing clothes that were disheveled when he was in a car accident.
"On what basis?"
Zhong Wentao frowned. 500 years from now, there would still be a difference in status?
He raised the Entry Letter in his hand. This should be enough to let him in, right?
Who would have thought that the security guards would still stop them?
"Sir, you do not look like you can obtain the Entry Letter. I'm afraid you have randomly picked it up? Don't show your eyes here even if you're experienced with the world. "
The security guard looked down, he tried to push Zhong Wentao away, but he failed to do so.
He took off the walkie-talkie from his waist and planned to call more security guards to come and chase Zhong Wentao away.
Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, Zhong Wentao turned and left, unwilling to interfere.
If things got out of hand, he wouldn't need to enter the auction anymore.
He quickly left the hotel and turned right. He did not expect that there would be someone standing there. He did not have enough time to stop and directly crashed into that person.
