Chapter 24 – Such a Holy Mother’s Deed!
As the saying goes, good things come to those who wait.
Initially, Gu Yu thought he would quickly get his hands on the small black stone, but unfortunately, he encountered that idiotic Zhou Yi halfway through. After that half-baked attempt at treatment, he had still failed to ruin the effects of the medicinal powder.
The clan elder of Chongmiao Village remained in a coma.
However, it was also because his medicinal powder was too potent that this little pastry, Zhou Yi, could never undo it.
Thinking of these things, Gu Yu raised his hand and placed it on the Chongmiao Village clan elder, continuously searching for his objective for this trip.
If anyone had come at this moment, simply observing Gu Yu’s movements would have led them to misinterpret his actions…
“Ha, finally found it, it was well hidden!”
Finally, Gu Yu found a small black stone in the interlayer of the Chongmiao Village clan elder’s upper garment pocket.
As soon as Gu Yu’s fingers touched the black stone, countless red patterns immediately appeared on it. After about ten seconds, they gradually stabilized.
Looking at the red stone in his hand, Gu Yu couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.
Did he have abundant spiritual energy?
Otherwise, why would this black stone have turned red, with not a trace of black visible?
To confirm whether this stone was real or fake, Gu Yu let go and tossed it onto the bed, preparing to see if the red would fade.
Then, it truly faded…
However, perhaps because Gu Yu was still in the room, the red rings on the black stone only faded halfway, leaving the other half still red.
This made Gu Yu couldn’t help but touch his chin, thinking no wonder that old geezer didn’t let him leave.
With such powerful spiritual energy, it must be something very few people possessed!
That’s why he had that look of a coveted delicacy, preparing to feed him to the worms.
But, it was clear that the Chongmiao Village clan elder had underestimated Gu Yu’s capabilities, which led to the three-colored Gu worm being stolen and him being drugged unconscious.
After experimenting with the efficacy of the black stone, Gu Yu found the small stone to be quite interesting, so he shamelessly pocketed it directly into his space.
“Old geezer, I’m taking your stone, but I won’t mistreat you! Seeing as you’re about to turn into a pig’s head, I’ll help you recover your normal appearance! This stone will be my consultation fee. Tsk, tsk, tsk, let me tell you, having me help with treatment is a great bargain for you!”
After shamelessly speaking, Gu Yu felt he was truly too kind.
Originally, he could have just taken the stone and left, but now he was even going to treat the old geezer who wanted to harm him. This was truly a divine, holy mother’s deed!
When he got back, he would casually mention it to his little wife and wait to be praised.
Happily imagining these scenarios, Gu Yu’s hands were not idle. He directly took out the medicinal powder for healing from his space, along with some bottles and jars of medicinal liquids.
The injuries on the Chongmiao Village clan elder were all caused by Zhou Yi’s insect bites, so it wasn’t too difficult to recover.
Moreover, the effect would be immediate.
As Gu Yu applied the medicine to the Chongmiao Village clan elder, watching the swollen areas on the elder’s face quickly recede, he felt like he was putting on a skit together with Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi was responsible for injuring, and he was responsible for healing.
It was a pity, though, that with only one black stone, the consultation fee was too little!
Thinking this, after resolving all the surface wounds on the Chongmiao Village clan elder, Gu Yu stood up and started looking around the room to see if he could “borrow” anything or make any important discoveries.
As it turned out, this little stroll led Gu Yu to a significant discovery.
It was a book.
A book detailing the secret affairs of the Southern Border. Apart from the messy parts at the beginning, Gu Yu followed the degree of damage to the pages and directly flipped to the page the Chongmiao Village clan elder frequently read.
Then, he saw a detailed introduction to the three-colored Gu worm.
In addition to the information Gu Yu already knew, there was also a particularly hidden legend.
When the three-colored Gu worm is fed and grown into a seven-colored Gu worm, it can be used to track the most powerful Gu worms in the Southern Border, with a very high chance of success!
Having a seven-colored Gu worm was equivalent to having a key to enter a secret room.
And this book did mention what that most powerful Gu worm was, but unfortunately, that part had been deliberately torn off.
This made Gu Yu feel a sense of regret, always feeling that the powerful Gu worm sought by the seven-colored Gu worm had a strong connection to the mysterious Gu worms sought by those resentful worms.
Perhaps, they were the same one!
This was Gu Yu’s sixth sense.
After thinking wildly for a long time, Gu Yu didn’t dwell on it any further and directly put the book into his space.
Afterward, he didn’t continue searching and instead pushed open the door of the house.
The village residents waiting outside looked anxious. Upon seeing Gu Yu finally open the room door, they immediately looked towards where the Chongmiao Village clan elder was lying.
Their glance immediately shocked them.
In fact, the time Gu Yu spent treating was not long.
At least, compared to Zhou Yi’s treatment, it could be considered very simple and fast.
However, the effect was truly different!
Although Gu Yu had not awakened the Chongmiao Village clan elder, the wounds previously inflicted by Zhou Yi’s insects had already recovered to about eighty to ninety percent.
The swollen and discolored skin from the bites had also returned to normal.
This made the villagers present heave a sigh of relief, thinking that at least the clan elder would not suffer too much pain.
Gu Yu, this doctor, was truly amazing. With just a casual treatment, he could restore severe-looking wounds all over the body.
“Lord Gu, your medical skills are truly amazing!”
“Exactly, exactly! In all my life, this is the first time I’ve seen such miraculous medical skills!”
“Oh my god, this is simply a miracle! Lord Gu, are you accepting disciples? Can you accept my son? He’s very well-behaved, and he won’t scare away chickens.”
When Gu Yu walked out of the room, the people who were already shocked finally came back to their senses.
Immediately, chattering voices erupted, and their gazes towards Gu Yu were filled with reverence.
Some even started thinking about having their children follow Gu Yu, this great figure, and believed they would definitely prosper in the future.
Unfortunately, Gu Yu simply smiled faintly at everyone and then said that he was still learning from his master and could not accept disciples.
After saying this, Gu Yu left directly, without lingering any longer.
Meanwhile, Zhou Yi, leaning against a tree trunk, heard what Gu Yu said and couldn’t help but grit his teeth, thinking that Gu Yu truly had a powerful master!
Otherwise, his medical skills would absolutely not be so powerful!
However, through the recent treatment of the Chongmiao Village clan elder, Zhou Yi knew that Gu Yu’s medical attainments were already very strong.
If that was the case, wouldn’t Gu Yu’s master be an even more formidable figure!
Thinking of this, a look of dread flashed across Zhou Yi’s face, knowing that he could no longer continue to oppose Gu Yu.
If he continued to test him, he might not even know how he died!
