Zhang Qiuli turned her face away. "Young Master Xie is in good health, without any illness or disease, you may leave now!"
Xie Feng stood still, without moving.
"If you want to stand, then you can stand, just don't bother me!"
Zhang Qiuli glanced at him, snorted coldly, and sat down to read a medical book by herself.
He refused to communicate with Xie Feng!
At that moment, the curtain moved and Xie Ling walked in.
Zhang Qiuli, with her eyes half-closed, said coldly, "No matter how many people you bring, it's useless. I said I'm not going, and I won't go! You can all leave!"
He thought to himself, "If Xie Yunhao is in trouble, I will naturally go to save him, but I will go to the Ninth Universe alone!"
Xie Ling clasped his hands in a fist and said, "My name is Xie Ling, and my father Xie Yunhao!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qiuli looked up, her eyes flickering slightly.
Xie Yunhao had shown him great kindness and helped him in the past, but since then, one of them became the head of the family and a military doctor, while the other became a war War God the border, and they basically never met again.
Then Xie Yunhao was Demon-Suppressing Tower.
Seeing Xie Ling's handsome features and extraordinary dashing demeanor, Zhang Qiuli's gaze softened. He truly possessed a third of the heroic spirit of War God Yunhao.
"So it's... Miss Xie Ling... Please forgive my ignorance, Miss. I've lived in the countryside for a long time and am detached from worldly affairs. I have offended Miss Xie Ling!"
Zhang Qiuli looked up at her, her tone changing.
Xie Ling frowned slightly and pleaded, "My father's condition is critical. I hope Qiuli can spare him a favor for Xie Ling's sake..."
Zhang Qiuli lowered her head Wordless.
After a long silence, he sighed inwardly and said, "Alright, I can save your father, but..."
He looked at Xie Feng.
I don't want to see this person!
He is a man of strong emotions; he loves what the house is connected to, and he also hates what the house is connected to!
Xie Feng said, "If you can save Uncle Yunhao, I can disappear right now."
Seeing Xie Feng Xie Ling hesitated to speak, but for the sake of the overall situation, she had no choice but to remain silent.
Zhang Qiuli said, "I need to pack some medicinal herbs. I'll set off with you tomorrow at noon. Alright, I'm tired. You can all leave now."
He immediately started kicking people out!
Xie Feng and Xie Ling exchanged a glance and had no choice but to leave the room.
Zhang Qiuli didn't offer them any accommodations, and his small courtyard couldn't accommodate Xie Feng and the other two, so they had no choice but to find a cave in the nearby mountains to make do for the night.
"This cave is quite nice, spacious and clean. I wonder which Devil Beast dug it!" Sitting in the cave, Gu Yu looked around and was quite satisfied.
"Let's stay here for one night. He promised to come to Earth Universe with us tomorrow. Hopefully, he won't have any strange dreams tonight and break his promise the next day."
Xie Ling poked at a fire.
Xie Feng sat beside him, staring blankly ahead, seemingly lost in thought.
"Ugh, I'm hungry!"
Gu Yu finished speaking, he immediately went out.
A moment later, he returned, bringing with him a bag of wild fruit.
"Pear, walnut, apple, peach, Sister Ling, which one do you want to eat?"
"Apple."
"Here, this apple is very sweet!"
"Hey bro, wanna have some?"
Xie Ling handed the extra apple to Xie Feng, only to find the latter lost in thought.
"Master, are you still thinking about what that On Teachers during the day? That master has a grudge, and he'll definitely dislike you. Otherwise, are you going to go over and kowtow to him a few times? I don't think that would help! You can't exactly slit your throat in front of him and say you've come to pay off your debt! Besides, the idea of children paying for their parents' debts isn't popular anymore!"
Gu Yu crossed her arms and chattered away.
Xie Feng pondered, "I'm thinking, my father was able to suppress Xie Tu and Xie Han to become the head of the main family, so his personality couldn't possibly be so extreme and biased. Moreover, the Grandmaster is the only military doctor and has served my father closely for so many years. Even if he hasn't made any great contributions, he has certainly worked hard. How could he fly into a rage just because he couldn't cure a general? Could there be some hidden story behind this?"
Xie Ling raised an eyebrow. "What you said makes a lot of sense! Although I haven't personally met Uncle Xuanyuan, I've heard rumors about him. He's a very calm and collected person, and he wouldn't recklessly charge forward on the battlefield; he's not the kind of person who goes crazy. His treatment of the Grandmaster is either because he genuinely couldn't control his emotions, or he has ulterior motives! Little brother, don't worry about it. Right now, our most important task is to restore Father's memory so we can learn more about the truth and deal with Xie Han and the others! As for the conflict between the Grandmaster and Uncle, let's put it aside for now! Things will work themselves out!"
"Exactly, Xie Ling is right! There's no point in discussing this now, we might as well eat some fruit. Anyway, the master has already agreed to go to the Ninth Universe to treat the War God tomorrow! That's the most important thing! Right now, I just want to lie down and daydream..."
Gu Yu tilted his head back and fell onto a rock. He then tossed a wild pear upwards, caught it with his mouth, stared at the mountaintop, and slowly chewed it.
At that moment, a person appeared outside the cave.
In the flickering firelight, his shadow was stretched long and thin.
"Beautiful sister, big brother, are you there?" A little boy walked in, with a basket slung over his arm.
"Hey, Little Yang Chen, what brings you here? It's so dark outside, and there are so many cliffs on the mountain..."
Xie Ling stood up, looking worried.
The little boy walked up to the group, put down his basket, looked up and smiled, "Beautiful ladies, I'm fine! I heard you spent the night on the mountain, that sounds so awful. I wonder if you've eaten?"
As he spoke, he took a piece of cloth off the basket.
The basket contained several steaming hot buns, a plate of braised Shaorou, a plate of stir-fried vegetables, and three pairs of chopsticks made from tree branches.
"I made the steamed buns and vegetables myself, so you won't go hungry after you eat your fill!" the little boy said innocently.
"You're only nine years old, and you already know how to steam buns?" Gu Yu was so surprised that he sat up from the rock. Compared to a child, he was practically useless!
Yang Chen blushed slightly at the praise, "My master is very busy and doesn't have time to cook. I just figured it out myself, and I gradually learned how."
Gu Yu slapped his thigh and sighed, "Child abuse!"
Yang Chen quickly waved his hands. "No, no, I did it willingly. It has nothing to do with my master. He didn't mistreat me; he's very good to me..."
" Gu Yu, you scared the child." Xie Ling put her arm around Yang Chen's thin shoulders to comfort him, then stared at Gu Yu with her clear eyes.
Gu Yu chuckled, walked over without any shame, grabbed a steamed bun and started eating, "Freshly steamed buns are so fragrant!"
Seeing this, Xie Feng thought to himself, "My master must have seen such a grand undertaking as steaming buns."
Zhang Qiuli saw his disciples bringing them food but didn't stop them. Could this indirectly suggest that this master is also a person who is tough on the outside but soft on the inside?
