Chapter 307 - 307: Snatched
Zhou Qingyun’s eyes were half-lidded. “Yes!”
“That’s right. I’ll continue with the acupuncture a few more times. Once the cold poison reaches your legs, it will not only impact your ability to walk but also make your entire body feel significantly lighter. You will regain the ability to do things you couldn’t before.
“Yun’er, do you believe it now?” Zhou Qingyu smiled.
Zhou Qingyun’s pale face seemed to regain some color. “Yes! I believe you now. Thank you, Mr. Jun! I thought 1 would soon leave my parents and big brother. Thank you for giving me hope.”
“Practicing medicine and saving lives is the duty of a physician. Moreover, Young Master Zhou has paid the consultation fee, so I should do my best to save you. Miss Zhou, there’s no need to be polite.”
Gu Qingluan walked to the table and wrote a prescription. “For the next half month, prepare the medicine according to this prescription. Boil three bowls of water into one bowl of medicinal soup, and take it in the morning and evening. Continue to stay at the Immortal Ascension Tower for half a month, and I will come for a follow-up.”
Zhou Qingyu solemnly accepted the prescription. When he saw Gu Qingluan about to leave, he stopped her. “Mr. Jun, you haven’t received the consultation fee yet.”
Gu Qingluan smiled. “Aren’t you afraid I’ll take the money and run?”
Zhou Qingyu also smiled. “Mr. Jun, a compassionate healer like you, 1 believe you wouldn’t do such a thing.”
He handed a thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts to Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan accepted it calmly, walked to the door, and saw the Zhou family servant whom she had sent to buy wine earlier.
“Mr. Jun, here’s the wine you asked for.”
The other party handed her the wine jug.
Gu Qingluan took it and opened the lid.
Instantly, a fragrant aroma wafted out.
The powerful fragrance made Gu Qingluan’s eyes light up.
“What kind of wine is this?”
“This is the ‘Drunken Immortal Brew’ from the Immortal Ascension Tower. It’s named because even immortals would get drunk after drinking it.”
Gu Qingluan took a sip from the jug, and the spicy liquor burned her throat, making her shudder. “Good wine!”
She looked at the Zhou family servant with a hint of light in her eyes. “How much for this?”
The servant felt uncomfortable under her gaze. Without waiting for him to answer, Zhou Qingyu said, “It’s just a jug of wine, consider it my thanks to Mr. Jun for saving my sister.”
After saying that, he glanced at the servant, “The wine bill will be settled by the steward when you return.”
Gu Qingluan didn’t bother with pleasantries with Zhou Qingyu, “Then I won’t be polite.”
After a pause, she conjured a small item in her hand.” It’s a sleeping aid pouch that I made. Wear it, and it can help you sleep better.”
In Zhou Qingyu’s eyes, Gu Qingluan was now a formidable physician even more powerful than Su Haisheng. When he heard it was a sleeping aid pouch, he quickly took it and put it into his sleeve, expressing his gratitude to Gu Qingluan once again.
Gu Qingluan waved her hand, holding the wine jug, and left.
A servant stood beside Zhou Qingyu, expressing some concern, “Young Master, we don’t know the background of Mr. Jun. What if he doesn’t show up for the next appointment?”
Watching Gu Qingluan’s figure receding into the distance, Zhou Qingyu said calmly, “I believe Mr. Jun won’t break his appointment.”
Gu Qingluan had just left the Immortal Ascension Tower when she saw a group of people rushing in a certain direction.
Initially uninterested, she planned to leave the black market. However, two people passing by her caught her attention, saying, “Hurry up! If we’re late, Master Hu’s elixirs will be sold out.”
“Who is this Master Hu?”
“You don’t know? It’s Master Hu from the Island of No Return!”
Gu Qingluan raised an eyebrow.
Master Hu from the Island of No Return?
How come she, the owner of the Island of No Return, hadn’t heard of this?
She changed her course and followed the crowd.
As she went further, the crowd grew thicker.
Gu Qingluan extended her spiritual awareness and observed a crowded street corner up ahead.
Most of them were pushing their way in, while a few lucky ones were happily coming out with a bottle in their hands.
Gu Qingluan stood in front of one of these individuals.
The person immediately guarded the bottle in their hand, looking at her warily, “What do you want?”
“What is this thing?”
The person became even more nervous. “Why should I tell you?”
Before he could finish speaking, everything before his eyes blurred, and the bottle in his hand vanished.
“Oh, my spirit pill!”
Seeing the bottle in the hands of the person in front of her, he panicked and tried to snatch it back.
Gu Qingluan used her fingers to immobilize his body, holding him in place.
Then, she opened the bottle and poured out the pills inside, bringing them close to her nose to take a whiff..
