Chapter 10 Miraculous Doctor Xue Xuanzhen
Jinkou is located at the junction of Lujiang County and Wuyang County. There is the Qianjiang River running through Lujiang County and Wuyang County in the east-west direction, and the Lichuan Grand Canal connecting Hongdu County and Fengming County in the north-south direction. It is an extremely important place. transportation hub.
The Black Dragon set sail in the morning and arrived at Jinkou in the afternoon.
As soon as we got off the ship, the bustling atmosphere hit us. The whole port area was crowded with people and traffic, making it a lively scene.
Lu Yu, led by Dou Changhe, went directly to Yu Wanli's residence and handed over the greeting card.
The concierge took the invitation and looked at it. Without saying anything, he took Lu Yu and others to the side hall to wait.
After arriving at the side hall, I discovered that there were already four or five groups of people waiting here.
"The Wanhe Chamber of Commerce does a lot of business, and it has many scarce resources in its hands. Many people come to visit the Yufu every day. It is no exaggeration to say that it is crowded."
Dou Changhe was worried that Lu Yu was young and energetic and could not bear the slight, so he explained to him specifically.
"But don't worry, young master. Manager Liu in this mansion has a good relationship with me. He will arrange for us to come in soon."
Lu Yu said calmly: "When you are in a country, do as the Romans do. Guests do as the host does. There is no harm in waiting."
They waited for more than an hour, and no one came to receive them except the boy who refilled the tea.
The other groups of guests couldn't wait any longer and left on their own.
Dou Changhe also lost his patience and started to protest.
"What's going on in the Yu Mansion? How can we treat guests like this? I, Dou, have been traveling all over the country for many years. When have I ever been treated with such contempt? Young Master, please sit down for a moment while I go and let the people in the Yu Mansion see what I am like. Use this method to prevent others from looking down upon us, the third member of the Lu family!"
With that said, he was about to rush out and have a big fight.
But Lu Yu grabbed him.
"Uncle Dou, please be patient. Someone is coming."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard footsteps.
Dou Changhe couldn't help but be surprised. His cultivation level was obviously higher than that of Lu Yu, but Lu Yu actually noticed someone coming before him, which showed that his spiritual sense was even sharper than his own.
Dou Changhe was secretly frightened. He found that the deeper the contact, the less he could see through the depths of this young master.
"Manager Liu."
A group of people hurriedly walked past the door, and the leader happened to be Manager Liu, whom Dou Changhe was familiar with.
Manager Liu turned around and saw a surprised expression on his face when he saw Dou Changhe.
"Master Dou, why are you here?"
Dou Changhe was so angry that he couldn't help but sneered.
"I have been waiting for the greeting invitation for more than an hour, but Manager Liu actually came to ask me why I am here. Is this the way you treat guests in your house?"
Only then did Manager Liu suddenly realize. He patted his forehead and apologized repeatedly: "Master Dou, please forgive me. We did not mean to be negligent. In fact, our government has important matters today and we have no time to attend to them. Please forgive me for any rudeness."
"Master Dou, please sit down for a moment. We have a distinguished guest coming to our house soon. After I have arranged the reception, I will come over and have a good chat with Master Dou."
After saying that, he had to leave immediately.
"Manager Liu, wait a minute."
Dou Changhe was extremely angry, but remembering the purpose of his trip, he had to suppress his anger and speak patiently.
"This is my young master, the head of the third house of the Lu family in Ding'an. He has superb medical skills. He is also a practitioner himself and is especially good at healing injuries."
"I am here to save your young master. Are the affairs of your house more important than your young master's safety?"
Manager Liu was about to speak when suddenly an angry shout rang out.
"Liu Chang, what are you doing! Doctor Xue will be here soon, why are you still dawdling!"
A man who looked like a housekeeper came from outside with several servants in a hurry.
Steward Liu Liu Chang trembled all over and said hurriedly: "Steward, please calm down, I'll go get ready right now."
Liu Chang looked at Lu Yu and Dou Changhe, hesitated for a moment, and finally accompanied Xin Xin and said, "Chief steward, these are people from the Lu family in Ding'an. They are here for the young master's injury..."
"Ding'an Lu family?"
The chief steward glanced at Lu Yu and others, and then his eyes fell on Dou Changhe.
"Are you a healer?"
Liu Chang coughed dryly.
"This is the owner of the Yushan Mine, Mr. Dou, who has come to visit me before... This Young Master Lu here is the one who is proficient in medical science..."
The chief steward turned his attention to Lu Yu again.
His eyes gradually became cold.
Although he didn't say a word, the clear look of contempt in his eyes clearly revealed what he meant - this brat? Even if your hair is not even long, what can you do?
"The few people who came all the way from Ding'an City are considerate of their intentions. However, my young master's injury has been dealt with. Doctor Xue of the Divine Needle Sect will be here soon, so I won't worry about this matter."
"Lu Tianying from Ding'an City was considered a hero back then. Since you are members of the Lu family, just stay at home and have some dinner before leaving!"
The implication was that Lu Yu and others were regarded as beggars.
Dou Changhe was furious when he heard this, and was about to explode when Lu Yu spoke first: "The Divine Needle Sect is quite famous. Since we are lucky enough to meet him here, why not let us stay and see this senior master?" What are the methods?"
The chief steward said with a haughty look: "Do I need to talk about Doctor Xue's methods? I personally made four trips to Fuling Mountain and promised ten thousand taels of gold before I invited this holy hand to Jinkou."
"Master Lu is young and has some eyesight. Being able to see the methods of this holy hand will definitely be of great benefit."
"You can watch if you want, but remember not to get too close. This Doctor Xue has a strange temper. If you bump into him, don't blame me for kicking you out of the house!"
After saying that, he no longer paid attention to Lu Yu and others, and commanded his men vigorously to quickly prepare for the reception.
Lu Yu and Dou Changhe watched the servants of the Yu Mansion busying around.
Not only did they lay a red carpet and prepare bouquets, but there were also special musicians. Lu Yu and Dou Changhe couldn't help but be stunned.
The Lu family is also a powerful family, but they have never had such a scene to welcome guests.
"This Doctor Xue is very famous in the Jiangnan area. It is said that he has thirteen-way flying shuttle needle method, which is extremely mysterious and has the effect of bringing the dead back to life. Although his medical skills are high, he is also surprisingly arrogant. This time I can really see it!"
Dou Changhe said indignantly.
"The Yu family made such a big fuss about him, but treated the young master so lightly, and favored one over the other, which is really infuriating."
Lu Yu's face was calm and unperturbed.
"When you give a gift to someone, you must have something to ask for. They have something to ask of this Xue Shen Doctor, but they have nothing to ask of us. On the contrary, we have something to ask of them, so their attitude is nothing surprising."
After a while, Yu Wanli, the president of Wanhe Chamber of Commerce, also came out, and lined up at the door with his family to greet him.
The entire Yu family was on high alert.
But Xue Shen Doctor was late.
After more than a quarter of an hour, a voice broke the tranquility of the Yu family.
"Fuling Mountain Shenzhen Gate, Xue Shen Doctor is here--"
With this voice, flags were flying, flowers were thrown, and rituals and music were played, creating a lively scene.
The Xue Shen Doctor came in a colorful chariot and slowly stopped outside the door of the Yu family.
"Yu Wanli of Wanhe Chamber of Commerce welcomes Dr. Xue!"
Yu Wanli stood at the door and bowed respectfully.
But there was no response from the colorful sedan.
"Yu Wanli of Wanhe Chamber of Commerce welcomes Dr. Xue..."
"Yu Wanli of Wanhe Chamber of Commerce welcomes Dr. Xue..."
Yu Wanli respectfully invited Dr. Xue twice, but Dr. Xue never got out of the car.
People at the scene couldn't help but talk about it, and they didn't know what went wrong. What was going on.
Just when Yu Wanli didn't know what was wrong, a voice finally sounded on the sedan.
"Where is the patient?"
Yu Wanli was stunned.
"My son Yu Rongzhou is in the inner courtyard..."
"Carry him out." The voice on the sedan said coldly.
Yu Wanli looked embarrassed.
"This... my son is seriously injured and has not yet woken up. I'm afraid it's inconvenient to move him... Please ask Doctor Xue to move to the inner courtyard and diagnose my son in person."
"Hmph, so much nonsense, do you want to treat him or not? If not, forget it!"
As he spoke, the sedan chair was about to turn around.
Yu Wanli was panicked and hurried to stop him.
"Doctor Xue, wait a moment, I will have someone carry my son out."
Lu Yu was amazed as he watched from the side.
No wonder others said that Doctor Xue was arrogant, and no wonder the Yu family mobilized so many people. He now had a real understanding of Doctor Xue's style.
After a while, more than a dozen servants of the Yu family carried out a bed.
The bed was very huge, and it was probably because a wall was demolished before it was carried out of the room.
The path of the bed just passed by Lu Yu.
Lu Yu looked intently and saw a young man in his twenties lying on the bed, his face flushed and unconscious. He should be the young master of Wanhe Chamber of Commerce, Yu Rongzhou.
"Huh?"
On the star map in Lu Yu's body, the medical stars fluctuated strangely. Judging from these feedbacks, this Yu Rongzhou's situation seemed a little bit wrong?
"Master, have you seen his problem?" Dou Changhe asked in surprise.
Although he had already experienced the wonders of Lu Yu's medical skills, he was still shocked to see that Lu Yu saw Yu Rongzhou's problem at the first sight.
"You said that this young master Yu was obsessed with practicing martial arts?" Lu Yu asked.
"The people in the Yu Mansion told me so... What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
Lu Yu said calmly: "Let's see first."
The bed was placed next to the colorful chariot.
The divine doctor Xue sat in the chariot, checked Yu Rongzhou's situation, and said something directly to Yu Wanli beside him.
"Thirty thousand taels of gold."
The whole audience gasped.
Thirty thousand taels of gold for one patient, this money is too easy to make!
Lu Yu couldn't help but frown.
It is said that doctors are kind-hearted, but this Xue Shen Doctor has not done anything yet, and he started asking for a lot. Such behavior is simply unworthy of the word doctor.
Such a person can also become a miracle doctor?
Yu Wanli didn't expect that Xue Shen Doctor would ask for thirty thousand taels of gold as soon as he opened his mouth, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"Xue Shen Doctor, can we discuss the consultation fee? As the president of Wanhe Chamber of Commerce, Yu has been running around all these years, and he can be regarded as knowledgeable, but I have never heard of such a high consultation fee..."
"How much consultation fees others charge is their business. If you want to see me, Xue Xuanzhen, I will ask for this amount. If you think it is too expensive, you can go to see those who don't charge high consultation fees!"
"This... Is Xue Shen Doctor sure that he can cure my son?"
"Humph! Is this the first day you have heard of my Xue Xuanzhen's name? I guarantee that you will be cured!"
Yu Wanli gritted his teeth fiercely.
"Okay! Thirty thousand taels is thirty thousand taels! I'll order someone to bring it!"
This Wanhe Chamber of Commerce is indeed the first chamber of commerce in Jiangzuo. It is financially strong. In a blink of an eye, three large boxes were lifted out and placed next to the colorful chariot.
The box mouth was open, and the golden light inside was shining, which made the colorful chariot even more gorgeous.
At this time, the divine doctor Xue finally got off the chariot, and everyone finally saw his true face.
He was about sixty years old, well-dressed, full of energy, and quite a bit of the charm of a hermit.
He walked around the bed in a circle, with a calm expression on his face.
"President Yu is a smart man after all. Money is nothing but external things. Compared with your son's life, thirty thousand taels of gold is nothing!"
As he spoke, he took out a set of silver needles and picked up one at random.
The needle seemed to have the momentum of a mountain, and stabbed Yu Rongzhou steadily.
Lu Yu, who was standing by, looked at the spot where the needle had fallen and frowned.
"Wait a minute!"
He suddenly shouted.
