Chapter 673: Abandoned Son - Hegemony (37)
The two brothers stood there quietly, their eyes meeting each other, as if time had frozen at this moment.
Finally, it was the elder brother Gu Renyuan who broke the silence and said softly, "To be honest, my master likes to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests. In addition to practicing meditation on weekdays, he would go down the mountain to travel when he felt bored. My master has no name, and his Taoist name is Xuwu."
Hearing this, the person opposite couldn't help but show surprise, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Oh my, so you are Master Xuwu's disciples! I am so ashamed, I am so short-sighted that I couldn't recognize that the techniques you two performed came from Master Xuwu's disciples."
Gu Hongdao on the side quickly echoed, "No, no, it is an honor for my brother and I to receive such praise from you. I didn't expect to meet someone who knows our master here today. It's really a great pleasure."
The man then sighed and said, "I have heard of Master Xuwu's name for a long time, and it is like thunder in my ears! But I have never had the chance to see his true face. Today, I learned that you two are his direct disciples, and I respect him even more.
I wonder if he has been in good health in recent years? If he is free, I hope he can come to our Hegui Villa for a chat. We will certainly welcome him to show our respect. The door of our Hegui Villa will always be open, waiting for your visit. "
However, Gu Renyuan shook his head slightly and replied with difficulty: "Thank you all for your kindness. My master has always loved quietness, and his whereabouts are erratic and quite strange. Even us disciples often find it difficult to guess where he is."
Gu Hongdao also nodded and said yes, adding: "That's right, Master has a very strange temper and often does what he wants. If he accidentally offends you, the owner of the manor, that would be bad."
At this moment, Gu Renyuan seemed to realize that the atmosphere was a bit tense. So he quickly changed the subject: "Ahem... The most urgent task right now is to treat Miss He's condition as soon as possible.
"That's right. Miss He's illness is a long-standing problem. You must not delay it any longer, lest you miss the best time for treatment."
"Master, if you trust our master, and my brother and I in medical skills, why don't you let us give it a try for your daughter?"
The old man smiled with his eyes narrowed, and said to the woman in yellow next to him: "My daughter, since the young friends have said so, you might as well give it a try."
"It's all up to Daddy."
"Hahaha, okay, okay!"
"Just tell me what medicinal herbs you need. Hegui Villa will do its best to prepare them."
After the woman in yellow sat down gracefully, Gu Hongdao gently placed a thin handkerchief on her slender white wrist.
At the same time, Gu Renyuan stood aside, concentrating on writing the prescription and carefully preparing the medicine.
After a while, Gu Renyuan handed the written prescription to Master He.
Master He quickly reached out to take it, first quickly glanced over the prescription, and then carefully savored it word by word.
After he read the entire prescription once or twice, he couldn't help but show admiration on his face, and exclaimed sincerely: "This prescription is really exquisite! He is worthy of being a disciple taught by a famous teacher. The young people are really formidable!"
Then, he turned around and shouted to the servants behind him: "Quickly prepare all the herbs listed above! No mistakes!"
"Yes, sir!" The servant responded and turned away in a hurry to prepare the necessary herbs.
At this time, Gu Renyuan said: "Ms. He, could you please take off the veil on your face and let us have a look?" Hearing this, the woman in yellow nodded slightly to show her agreement.
So, the woman in yellow slowly raised her hand, gently untied the ribbon tied behind her head, and slowly lifted the veil.
However, at the moment when the veil fell, everyone present gasped - they saw that the woman's originally beautiful face was covered with pimples and bumps of various sizes, so densely packed together that people felt their scalps tingling.
Seeing this scene, even Gu Hongdao, who was always knowledgeable, couldn't help but frown.
Gu Renyuan, on the other hand, was still calm. After staring at the woman's face for a moment, he turned his head and looked at Gu Hongdao.
Seeing Gu Renyuan nod, Gu Hongdao picked up the pen and wrote a new prescription. He handed it to Master He again and explained: "The medicine just now was for the patient to take orally, and this one is a special ointment formula for external application. Treating both internally and externally will surely speed up Miss He's recovery."
Seeing several unknown herbs, He Wen wanted to ask a question, but Gu Hongdao said first: "We can get the last five herbs ourselves, Young Master."
"it is good."
Soon, all the medicinal materials were prepared, and the Gu brothers went to the pharmacy in the villa and started making ointments.
"Brother, do you think this poisonous marten will bite us?"
"Just put him in the iron cage. Uncle is also our friend."
"That's right!"
"Don't be distracted, get the powder ready for me."
Gu Hongdao, who was pushing the millstone, immediately retorted: "You just keep pushing me. Is it your father or mother in front of you?"
"How can you talk like that? My parents are not your parents."
"When will this miserable life end? I miss my father. If he were here, he would definitely help us."
"Isn't mother helping you? Do your own thing and don't think about those trivial things. Once this is done, you and I will have time to play."
Gu Hongdao scooped out the powder, yawned, and said, "It's done."
Gu Renyuan poured the medicine powder in, took out a jade bottle from his arms, and poured a few drops of medicine juice into the medicine powder.
"Less, our medicine is free!"
"I know. If you hadn't shouted, my hands wouldn't have shaken, so a few more drops fell."
"Hold it. It would be bad if they get mixed up later."
An hour later, when the two brothers had prepared the ointment, they went to the room again and asked the servant at the door, "I wonder if the young lady has taken the medicine?"
"Two great doctors, my young lady has already drunk it."
"That's good."
Before the He family left, Gu Hongdao handed over the plaster and explained: "This is a plaster for the face. Miss He, please apply it on the back of your hand to see if it feels spicy."
"Give it to me, I'll apply it for you." A woman took the ointment from the maid and patiently applied it on the back of the hand of the woman in yellow.
"how?"
“It’s cool and refreshing, very comfortable and refreshing.”
"That's right!" the woman couldn't help but say.
The people in the room were naturally happy, and they were extremely grateful to the Gu brothers...
