Chapter 52 Thank you to the other party’s ancestors for eight generations!
“Who dares to hold Gu Family’s carriage hostage!”
“Please don’t be nervous, I mean no harm.”
Looking at the carriage stopped ahead, Gu Yu immediately spoke out to the front and quickly received a response.
After hearing the displeasure in Gu Yu’s voice, the other party quickly explained, saying that she meant no harm.
However, that would only fool a three-year-old child.
How could someone as suspicious as Gu Yu be easily convinced?
“No harm? Holding a carriage hostage at this moment, what does that count as? A threat!”
“I just want to ask Divine Doctor Gu for a favor, and I will reward you handsomely after it’s done!”
However, after Gu Yu emphasized the word “threat,” the other party stopped beating around the bush and directly stated their purpose.
Gu Yu was a little surprised to hear that they wanted him to do a favor.
Was his reputation that famous?
Why were people always asking him for help to cure them!
However, in the past, Gu Yu had always scared away those who came asking for help with a “Roar of the Bear” from Little Black… but he did not expect to encounter a tough opponent this time.
“Since you want to ask for my help, why are you hiding and refusing to meet me? Is this the sincerity of asking for a favor?”
“Please forgive me, Divine Doctor Gu. I heard that Divine Doctor Gu’s medicinal powder is incredibly powerful, so I cannot come out without reaching an agreement.”
“Oh? Then aren’t you afraid that my wife will attack? Her lightness skill is very good!”
“Someone from the Gu family is still in my hands…”
Seeing that the other party refused to show their face, Gu Yu frowned in annoyance, thinking that Xi Yang was still in the other party’s hands, so it was better for him not to act rashly!
What if Xi Yang’s fingers were cut off or something, causing him unnecessary suffering.
“Divine Doctor Gu, please don’t worry. I don’t want to harm anyone from the Gu family. It’s just that my master’s life is in danger, and I had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure.”
“Tell me what you need now! But I won’t agree immediately, it depends on what the matter is!”
“My master… I should introduce myself first. My name is Shen Xue, and I am the Eldest Senior Sister of the Tianshan Sect. My master, Li Ning, is the Sect Leader of the Tianshan Sect! The people of the Tianshan Sect have always been stationed in the Tianshan Mountains and have not had much contact with the outside world. However, my master was attacked and injured some time ago and is in critical condition…”
“The people of the Tianshan Sect do not interact with the outside world? In my opinion, that’s not true! Otherwise, how could you be so proficient in such insidious tactics.”
“I… I joined the Tianshan Sect midway, so I am naturally different from my junior sisters.”
Listening to Shen Xue’s words, Gu Yu had no interest in such a cliché plot. Instead, he was very suspicious of the Tianshan Sect’s unfamiliarity with the world!
Judging solely from Shen Xue’s behavior, it had nothing to do with being unfamiliar with the world!
However, he did learn from her words that the other party’s intention was indeed to ask him to save someone.
But just hearing the name “Tianshan,” Gu Yu did not want to go…
It would definitely be very far, very high, and very cold!
He remembered that when he was at Yunlong Temple in Lianzhou, climbing the mountain almost exhausted him to death!
“Lin Feng Kingdom is so vast, and there are many doctors! Why did you come to find me? And you seem so sure, more confident than I am myself?”
“Divine Doctor Gu’s reputation precedes him, naturally giving me great confidence! All the sects in the Jianghu already know about what happened in Tianxiang Town… That day, Divine Doctor Gu directly saved a person who was gravely ill and dying, and their once immobile and weak body became lively and vigorous the next day… Now, seeing this person named Xi Yang with my own eyes has made me completely believe in Divine Doctor Gu’s superb medical skills!”
“…”
Gu Yu had thought of countless possibilities, but he never expected… that it would be for such a reason!
Before, in Tianxiang Town, seeing Xi Yang’s miserable appearance, he immediately became anxious.
Then, without regard for anything else, he directly took action to rescue him.
Who knew that it would be seen by many people with ulterior motives, and they ‘warmly’ spread the news, making his reputation in the Jianghu grow larger and larger.
He really thanked that person’s ancestors for eight generations!
Thinking about these things with a dull pain, Gu Yu began to consider how to get this Eldest Senior Sister of the Tianshan Sect to leave and stop thinking about asking him to save people.
Absolutely not!
If one person comes asking for his help to save them, then wouldn’t Xi Yang be held hostage forever…
“The rumors outside are not to be taken seriously… I cannot save your master.”
“Divine Doctor Gu, as long as you are willing to help, the Tianshan Sect can fulfill any of your requests! Even disciples of the Tianshan Sect, you can choose freely to be your servants or maids!”
“Why would I want other people to be my servants! While I’m speaking nicely now, quickly release Xi Yang, otherwise don’t blame me for being rude! Don’t think you’ll be foolproof just because you have Xi Yang under control, unless you can truly kill him!”
“Holy cow, boss, you’re so heartless!!!”
“Shut up! I train you every day, yet you’re still such a weakling. Anyone can subdue you, it’s truly a disgrace to the Gu family!”
“It’s not that I’m a weakling, it’s that this woman is too strong!”
Just as Gu Yu was about to use a psychological trick, Xi Yang’s voice suddenly rang out, which made Gu Yu unable to suppress his inner thoughts and immediately started scolding him from afar.
However, Xi Yang felt very wronged by this.
He didn’t know why everyone he encountered recently was so strong…
And upon hearing Xi Yang’s words, Gu Yu raised an eyebrow, wondering just how strong this Eldest Senior Sister of the Tianshan Sect was in martial arts?
Stronger than his wife?
Hmph, how could that be!
If they were to come out for a one-on-one fight, she would definitely be the one chased and beaten by Gu Mengyao!
However, listening to Xi Yang’s spirited voice, he seemed to have not been mistreated… Gu Yu couldn’t help but wonder if the impression of seeing Xi Yang covered in wounds in Tianxiang Town was too deep, making him always feel that Xi Yang would be mistreated!
“Divine Doctor Gu, if you are willing to help, I am willing to give you the Tianshan Sect’s most prized treasure!”
Upon hearing Gu Yu’s firm tone, Shen Xue fell silent for a moment, then seemed to make a very difficult decision.
If she could save her master, what did the sect’s most prized treasure matter!
“The sect’s most prized treasure?”
“Thousand-year Ice Silkworm.”
“What!!!”
However, upon hearing the words “Thousand-year Ice Silkworm,” Gu Yu was immediately shocked!
The Tianshan Sect actually had this great treasure!!!
Gu Yu was tired of looking at all sorts of recipes in the Medical Scripture, and now he could recite them backwards without any difficulty.
Among them, there was a recipe in the Medical Scripture called ‘Longevity Pill,’ which Gu Yu had been coveting for a long time!
However, it required a Thousand-year Ice Silkworm as a medicinal ingredient…
Even though Gu Yu had asked people from the Alliance to search for it, he could not obtain specific information.
He had already given up, but upon hearing Shen Xue mention the Thousand-year Ice Silkworm, the little flame in Gu Yu’s heart rekindled!
