Chapter 409 - 407: Visitors from the Manor
No, this can’t go on, I must get Zhang Ju to come out!
With this thought, Chen Tianlong "thud" knelt on the ground, pleading, "Housekeeper Li, please help me inform him, I have a friend whose condition is critical, I implore him to help, no matter what the conditions, I will agree to them."
"Haha, young man, it’s not that I don’t want to help you. Since you’re here, I suppose you’ve heard of the old Manor Master’s personality. If he doesn’t want to do something, even if you die in front of him, he won’t make a move." Housekeeper Li said frankly.
"Hiss....."
Chen Tianlong took a deep breath; at this moment, he really felt like crying, it was simply a dilemma. If he went back now, Lin Wushuang would undoubtedly die. Even the doctors said they weren’t confident, so trying again was useless.
However, if the person truly didn’t want to go, he couldn’t force him; after all, it was surgery, not going out to eat.
What if the person made a mistake on purpose during surgery out of reluctance? You couldn’t blame them, you invited them, their skills are as they are, if the surgery fails, would you blame me?
Chen Tianlong truly felt like crying without tears.
"Housekeeper Li, no matter what, please inform him for me, no matter what the conditions, I’m willing!" Chen Tianlong still didn’t give up, saying through gritted teeth.
"Sigh..... alright, then follow me."
Li Sheng had no choice; this young man was truly persistent. In that case, he would take him to have a look. If the old Manor Master still refused, then he would have to give up.
Chen Tianlong nodded, climbed up from the ground, and Zhang Yufei had no choice but to follow right after Chen Tianlong as they began walking towards the Medical Manor.
Now, after exiting the Illusion Array, they only needed to bypass the rock garden to see the courtyard ahead. What surprised Chen Tianlong and Zhang Yufei was that they never expected that the barren exterior was all a facade.
Right in front of the courtyard was a massive flower bed, where all kinds of flowers were in full bloom, such as lilies, peonies, and roses, all available.
And on both sides of the courtyard were rows of banyan trees, growing very lush.
This was an old-fashioned glazed tile house with a staircase about five or six meters high, and once up the stairs, it was the main hall courtyard. Following Housekeeper Li closely, they quickly arrived at the main hall.
Housekeeper Li greeted a servant and then said to Chen Tianlong and Zhang Yufei, "You two wait in the hall, I’ll go to the back mountain to ask for you. If it’s really not possible, I can’t do anything either."
Chen Tianlong nodded, for besides this, he truly didn’t know what else to do.
After Housekeeper Li left, the two sat there bored, and shortly, a servant came to pour tea.
"Excuse me, young man, do you know where the old Manor Master is?"
Chen Tianlong didn’t quite believe Housekeeper Li’s words, feeling that a doctor going into seclusion was a bit unscientific, especially since it was so quiet here, was seclusion even necessary? It was like a martial arts master.
"Sorry, I don’t know, I’m just a servant, how would I know where the old Manor Master is." The young man said embarrassedly.
Chen Tianlong smiled bitterly, understandably, as a servant, how could one know so much? It’s just that he always felt something was off, as if he was being fooled.
As expected, the two sat there for an entire hour, and by then, Chen Tianlong was becoming impatient.
This Housekeeper Li was obviously lying, what was informing, was the back mountain that far? Did he need to travel over mountains and rivers or take a plane to ask one question, and still hadn’t returned in an hour?
"Yufei, let’s not wait, let’s go and see." Chen Tianlong saw that no one was around, and figured no one would mind, so he decided to go check the back mountain himself.
"Okay, sure."
Zhang Yufei, who was just here to be supportive naturally followed Chen Tianlong’s lead, wherever he went, she would accompany him.
The two left the room, and outside a servant was cleaning. Seeing them come out, he quickly approached and asked, "You two, where are you heading?"
Chen Tianlong had a quick idea and said, "Well, before Housekeeper Li left, he told us that if he didn’t return in an hour, we should go find him ourselves. By the way, how do we get to the back mountain?"
"Oh? Is that so?"
The servant thought for a moment and pointed to the main road on the right, saying, "Just follow that road to the end, then turn left, and you’ll see a sign for the back mountain."
"Oh, thanks a lot."
Chen Tianlong said unhurriedly, his expression very calm. The more intense the joy or grief, the more likely it was to arouse suspicion.
Sure enough, the servant didn’t doubt and continued sweeping the ground.
Chen Tianlong and Zhang Yufei quickly walked along the route pointed out by the servant. They couldn’t afford to delay; they could wait, but Lin Wushuang could not.
Every minute delayed increased Lin Wushuang’s life in danger.
Actually, Housekeeper Li wasn’t lying. He truly went to ask the old Manor Master Zhang Ju, but he wasn’t in seclusion, instead, he was in the Alchemy Room in the back mountain researching a new drug.
Zhang Ju had secluded himself here, not to shun fame and wealth, but to better concentrate on researching new medications. Because in such a place, no one expected it to host a transnational company’s new drug project research.
And the only researcher was Zhang Ju himself.
He had been working on this project for more than a year, but every experiment didn’t succeed. Theoretically, it should work, but it never reached the desired effect.
This new drug was called the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill.
Bone Marrow and Bone Cutting is a Divine Medicine that every cultivator desires, and only this reclusive Divine Doctor had the expertise to take on such a task.
To study the effects of the new drug on the Eight Extraordinary Meridians of the human body, Zhang Ju conducted several cleanse treatments on live subjects’ Ren Meridian, Du Meridian, Chong Meridian, Dai Meridian, Yin Qiao Meridian, Yang Qiao Meridian, Yinwei Meridian, Yangwei Meridian, but the results remained insignificant.
