Chapter 100 Medicine

The sun cast light through the flying dust on the ground outside the stone fence. The musty hay on the ground slightly squeaked.

Su Li sat down against the wall. She didn’t shout or sobbed. She was so quiet which was unusual. The two jailers were marveled for that.

It seemed that she didn’t hear the miserable screams and clamor around her. She slowly reached out her hands and a little suns.h.i.+ne fell on her fingertips and warmed her.

Compared with the death row under the ground where there was no suns.h.i.+ne in her previous life, the treatment in this life was too much better.

Su Li smiled, which scared the two jailers.

“Why is she still smiling?”

“Is she crazy?”

…

There was a smell of blood in the wood house of the Jin Family where was specialized in punis.h.i.+ng servants who made mistakes.

The butler of the Jin Family was lying on the hay and staring at the roof blankly. His right leg was twisted into a very strange arc and his wounds were simply bandaged, but didn’t healed at all. The yellow pus flowing out was faintly visible in the wounds.

Suddenly, the wood house’s door was opened with a soft click.

The butler of the Jin Family didn’t turn his head and continued to stare at the roof. Looking at the food on the floor which was not eaten, Fang Yuan knew that the butler had been on a hunger strike for many days.

Fang Yuan didn’t say anything for a while. Then he picked up a bucket next to him and poured the water directly to the butler’s face.

The butler of the Jin Family was trembled by the cold water and then he slowly turned his head. When he saw Fang Yuan’s disguised face, he was more scared and struggled to retreat. He said in a low voice, “Someone come to help! Master…”

However, his voice was even lower than the mosquito’s.

“So far, you still think about your master? Remember who broke your leg.” Fang Yuan didn’t move and his cold words like a knife plunged in the chest of the butler of the Jin Family, “If I did not appear, you would die and be thrown into the ma.s.s grave after a few days by the people in the Jin Family.”

The butler of the Jin Family stared at Fang Yuan with his red eyes. He said with the hoa.r.s.e voice like a wild animal, “So what? I’ve already been disabled. Are you here to laugh at me for your master?!”

“Of course not.” Fang Yuan took out a piece of wood and threw it to the butler of the Jin Family. “As long as you can manage one thing for my master, and my master will cure you completely.”

The butler of the Jin Family was stunned and immediately laughed crazily, “Do you think that I am a kid of three years old? How could I believe your nonsense?”

Fang Yuan was impatient, but his tone was still calm, “I almost forget that you had the master’s medicine and have forgotten everything on the Tiger Village. Butler of the Jin Family, I just give you a chance to avenge. Without you, I can do it for my master. You don’t want to lose the opportunity.”

The look of the butler finally changed. He really forgot what happened in the Tiger Village that day. The person said that it was because of his master’s medicine. Was there a medicine that could make people lose memory in short term?

He remembered that he did everything under the instructions of the master. But in the end, he was punished by him and one of his leg was broken. The face of the butler of the Jin Family became more and more sullen, and the flame of hatred ignited in his eyes.

“I am disabled now and can even hardly walk. What do you want me to do?”

The butler of the Jin Family gazed at Fang Yuan and asked slowly.

Fang Yuan squatted and stuffed a packet of medicine into the butler’s hand and whispered, “Rest a.s.sured. It was not the poison that can kill you when it meets blood. I believe that you can let your master eat the medicine by accident according to your ident.i.ty, can’t you?”

The hand of the Jin Family’s butler s.h.i.+vered slightly with the medicine bag, and the fear flickered in his pupils. But soon it was replaced by madness. “As long as I can see the miserable end of Jin Cheng’ao, I will do anything!”

“Rest a.s.sured. My master will intervene in it, the day will come soon. You can see that day when you are alive.”

Fang Yuan patted the butler’s shoulder and sneaked away from the Jin Family, as if he had never been here.

The butler gazed at the medicine in his hand, then he bit his teeth and stood up with the stick and jumped out the wood house.

In the study, Jin Cheng’ao was studying the swordsmans.h.i.+p book and smiles crawled up his corner of month from time to time. Obviously, he was in a good mood.

He had secretly dealt with those rich businessmen. Even if Yan s.h.i.+xun looked for them all over the whole Qinghe Province, it was impossible to find them. The young workshop owner had to stay in the Supervisory Division for at least one year or a half. Just like a country without the king would be disordered even in one day, the position of the workshop owner couldn’t be vacant for a long time. If Gong Xiangjun didn’t stop them, as long as the Jin Family worked hard on it, they could successfully make Jin Ruolan the workshop owner.

The situation was great, and Jin Cheng’ao’s mood was good.

“Master, the butler said he has something important to tell you!”

Suddenly, someone reported to him outside the door.

Jin Cheng’ao slightly raised his head and frowned slightly. He had broken that old man’s leg, how dare he came here? Jin Chengao wanted to refuse the butler directly but he was curious inside. So, he nodded, “Let him in.”

After a while, the butler who had cleaned up himself stood in the room with his crutch. Although he was punished by his master, he was still the butler of the Jin Family temporarily. He had the right to take a shower and change his clothes.

“Master! What you asked me to inquire before now has a result.”

The butler panted and said. He felt so painful in his right leg as if he was pierced by a blade when he made a step. Although he had already taken a bath, his back was completely wet by sweat.

“What’s the matter?”

Jin Cheng’ao raised his eyebrows and couldn’t help but think back. The butler had done things for him. He a.s.signed him to do too many things and he couldn’t remember which one this time.

“It is this!”

The butler took out a small bottle from his arms and it sounded like there was some water in it when it was shaken. But it was uncertain for what liquid it was. He unplugged the bottle stopper, and a pleasant fragrance filled the entire study.

“It is Lings.h.i.+ Emulsion, a treasure material in the world!”

Jin Chengao’s eyes were s.h.i.+ning. He quickly seized the jade bottle from the butler’s hands and rejoiced with wild excitement. Although it was little, such a small bottle of Lings.h.i.+ Emulsion was enough for him to cultivate further!

“Good! Very good… Old butler, you are very good!”

Jin Cheng’ao couldn’t help but praise the butler. But, when he looked up, he found the butler groaning on the ground. It turned out that he just knocked the butler down. But he was concentrated on the jade bottle and didn’t care about the butler at all.

However, it was also the contribution of the butler to get the Lings.h.i.+ Emulsion. Jin Cheng’ao hesitated for a while and suddenly shouted, “Servants! Carry the butler to cure his wounds without delay!”

“Thank you, master!”

The butler was grateful, but he was laughing wildly in his mind, “Jin Chengao, I knew that you were looking for this. But I never take it out… I didn’t expect that I can use it one day!”

It was filled with the medicine that person gave me. Just drink it and die!!

Hahaha……

After the butler was carried outside, Jin Cheng’ao prepared to take the Lings.h.i.+ Emulsion in the jade bottle, but he suddenly felt something might went wrong. He asked the manservant who replaced the butler recent days to have a taste.

“Master, it is so delicious! After I drank it, I felt warm in my stomach, as if I had endless strength in my whole body.”

The manservant was drunk with the Lings.h.i.+ Emulsion that his eyes were s.h.i.+ning. He stared at the bottle in Jin Cheng’ao’s hand and wanted to drink another mouthful of it. When Jin Cheng’ao saw that the manservant was fine, he regretted that he let the manservant drink it. He waved his hand and dismissed the manservant annoyedly.

“Tell my father that I will stay in the room for one day. No one will be allowed to bother me!”

After one day, Jin Cheng’ao walked out from the adytum worriedly. He felt that he could take a further step in the martial arts, but he couldn’t keep calm. It seemed that someone was speaking near his ear.

“The Lings.h.i.+ Emulsion is too little for me.”

Jin Cheng’ao whispered. He walked quickly to the butler’s room. He did not realize that he was in a trap and lost his calm.

“Master!”

The butler lay on the bed and suddenly saw Jin Cheng’ao walk to him. He was so scared that his face was pale. Did the master find the secret?

Jin Cheng’ao impatiently waved his hand, “Where did you get the Lings.h.i.+ Emulsion? Do you have more?”

The butler was immediately stunned. He didn’t know that it was a matter more than one year ago. What’s more, it was still a windfall. He didn’t know its origin.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a voice.

“Tell him that it was related to the owner of the embroidery workshop. Make up a suitable reason!”

The butler trembled slightly and the voice was so abrupt that was scared to death, but he still knew whose voice it was. He immediately held his fear and said,

“Master, I remember! The treasure was got from the owner of the embroidery workshop a month ago. It’s Su Li who was caught by you. She was the lecturer in the Qinghe Girls’ School. Her status at that time was not as high as the workshop owner before. It was easy to get it after I threatened her!”

After hearing what he said, the butler looked at Jin Cheng’ao nervously. Although he tried his best to patch up the lie, he could still detect the flaw after thinking carefully.

“Su Li?”

Jin Cheng’ao frowned and left quickly without saying anything. He went to the the Supervisory Division.

The butler was puzzled. When did the master began to become so impatient? He alwaya thought that the master usually took the action after thought about it twice. He was never as impulsive as today before.

“Is it…”

The butler suddenly remembered something. He was frightened and didn’t dare to say anything. The voice made him suspect that the young man who gave him the medicine pack was still around him. If he made a slight exposure, he would probably be killed.

“Mr. Li said that he will cure my leg.”

The butler carefully retracted into the bed. After experiencing so many strange things, he somehow believed “Mr. Li”. If he could restore his limbs, why would he want to die?

He did not know that at the moment Fang Yuan had left and followed Jin Cheng’ao.

“It is marvelous for him at such young age to practice the acquired ninth hurdle. But it is a pity that he had taken Su Li’s medicine. He is too impetuous to find me…”

Fang Yuan was extremely calm. Jin Cheng’ao was attracted to many people in front of him. So, he avoided people’s notice and quietly entered the prison of the Supervisory Division.

At this moment, in the Satrap’s Mansion, Yan Ziye got the news and immediately went to his father. He said hastily, “Dad! Save the workshop owner Su! I heard that Jin Cheng’ao went to the prison of the Supervisory Division. I am afraid that it was not good for Su Li! If she was beaten to death or to be disabled, it would be worse.”

“Jin Cheng’ao?”

Yan s.h.i.+xun heard that and stood up quickly, “Be quick! Get people together. This guy is always lawless. He even didn’t obey his father. We must stop him quickly!”

Yan s.h.i.+xun was in such a hurry that he didn’t notice that Yan Ziye was even more informed than him.
