At this mont, in the upper room of the Qingyun Inn, two guards were cleaning their wounds.
Once the wounds were cleaned and the White dicine was applied, the bleeding stopped imdiately.
The two n bandaged each other and sat sullenly by the table without speaking.
Wanyan Zhang looked extrely displeased, "Such a small dicine shop, yet it has such experts?"
One of the guards said gloomily, "Yeah, who would have thought, even when we were in the Great Chu Capital, we hadn’t seen many formidable people."
The other guard said, "Could it be that Doctor Gu’s identity is not ordinary?"
Wanyan Zhang squinted his eyes, "It’s possible."
"Anyone who can injure both of you would be a top expert anywhere. How could such an expert settle in a small dicine shop?"
"That Doctor Gu must have so unknown identity."
The other guard asked, "Master, what should we do now?"
Wanyan Zhang was sowhat annoyed, "What else can we do? The itinerary is already set, we have to leave early tomorrow morning."
"We don’t have ti to delay any longer."
The two guards remained silent.
Wanyan Zhang got up and headed to the inner room, leaving a sentence behind, "Rest early, we have to travel tomorrow."
The two guards exchanged a glance, knowing that they hadn’t completed their task and had displeased their master, but they had no choice, they really couldn’t win.
Lin Shuo stood guard in the yard all night and only went to sleep at dawn.
Yun Jiao got up and washed, and Mrs. Chen ca over, looking tense and asking, "Did you hear any noises last night?"
Yun Jiao nodded, "Two thieves ca, but Brother Lin and Ah Hu chased them away."
Mrs. Chen patted her chest, "I heard what sounded like the noise of swords. I guessed that Mr. Lin and Ah Hu were fighting with soone, luckily they chased them away."
She thought for a mont, "Why do you think thieves would co to our house?"
"Although we have a little money, there are plenty of people wealthier than us in Xiang City, so why target us?"
Yun Jiao shook her head, "I don’t know. I’ll ask Brother Lin and the others later, maybe they know sothing."
While having breakfast, Yun Jiao only saw Ah Hu and not Lin Shuo.
She asked, "Where’s Brother Lin?"
Ah Hu shook his head, "He guarded until dawn and just went to sleep."
Yun Jiao was taken aback for a mont, then Ah Hu brought over a bowl of porridge and said softly, "Today’s my turn to keep watch tonight."
"By the way, do you guess who those two were yesterday?"
Yun Jiao shook her head while looking at Ah Hu, "Who? The way you say it, is it soone I know?"
Ah Hu nodded, "It’s those people who ca to the shop the other day asking you to go to Huining for a consultation."
Yun Jiao’s mouth dropped open in shock, "They couldn’t possibly have wanted to kidnap to treat soone, could they?"
Ah Hu chuckled, "That’s probably exactly what they were after."
Yun Jiao frowned, "What’s wrong with these people? How forcing can they be? Aren’t they afraid that if they kidnap over there, I wouldn’t want to treat them?"
Ah Hu shook his head, "You’re thinking too simply. If they really wanted to kidnap you, they would naturally have ways to make you obey."
Yun Jiao suddenly rembered that Hua Tuo seed to have been killed by Cao Cao for refusing to treat him, she shook her head and muttered, "Being a doctor is a high-risk profession."
She sighed, put down her porridge bowl, and headed to the front.
Not long after the shop opened, a young man dressed as a servant ca over.
The servant took out a piece of silver, "I’ll take all the White dicine you have in the shop, however much there is."
