Gu Dajiu
Chapter 176: Gu Dajiu
Ling Yushu's expression was uncertain, Qin Mu hit the nail on the head for his worries.
Gu Li Nuan was the Crown Prince's teacher when he was young. The Crown Prince was older than him and occupied the position of Crown Prince. If the treatment between princes and common people was very different, one was as high as heaven and the other was as low as earth, then the treatment between Crown Princes and princes was also as high as heaven and as high as earth.
Gu Li Nuan would not give himself this face. Not only would she not give him face, she would also make things difficult for him.
He could be sure of that now.
"I won't ask about your relationship with Gu Li Nuan."
Ling Yushu made up his mind and said, "But you have to be careful. Gu Li Nuan doesn't act like the great priest of the previous generation. He doesn't have the broad mind to guide others."
Qin Mu nodded and said, "Don't worry. Gu Li Nuan would only give me a hard time, but she wouldn't dare to go too far."
Ling Yushu had a strange expression on his face. Qin Mu was being too arrogant. Where did he get his confidence from?
"Could it be that he and Seventh Sister have already..."
He had bad thoughts in his mind. If he became a royal consort, he would no longer have to be afraid of Gu Li Nuan.
Ling Yushu was silent for a moment, then said, "I plan to leave the Imperial Academy and go to the border to lead troops. I am a cavalry general, I hold an official position, and I am also old enough to lead troops outside, but I am worried about my seventh sister..."
Qin Mu comforted him, "Don't worry, Second Prince. I'm here."
Ling Yushu's eyes twitched, and he thought to himself, "It's because you're here that I'm worried."
Qin Mu chatted with the siblings for a while, then stood up to say goodbye, saying, "I just came back from abroad, and I haven't put down my luggage yet. I have to go back to the Scholar's Residence first."
Ling Yushu escorted him out of the Prince's Garden. After a moment of silence, he said to Ling Yuxiu, "Dr. Qin's state of mind doesn't seem like that of a young man. He has a very accurate view of things and will become a great man in the future. What he said just now really touched my heart."
Ling Yuxiu chuckled and said, "Who said he is an adult? He doesn't know anything. He always calls people fat and can't even say anything interesting."
Ling Yushu shook his head and said, "I will write to my father soon to leave the Imperial Academy and stop being a scholar. Gu Li Nuan will become the chief priest and will probably not treat you well. If you can't stay in the Imperial Academy, why don't you follow me to the border."
Ling Yuxiu nodded and said, "Don't worry, second brother. If I can't stay here any longer, I will definitely go to the border to find you. But I still want to practice with Bashan Jijiu."
Ling Yushu glanced at her and knew exactly what she was thinking, but he couldn't say much and could only shake his head.
Qin Mu returned to the Scholars' Residence, followed by the huge dragon Qilin. Along the way, many scholars in the Scholars' Residence were watching and were very envious.
Yun Que came forward and said with an apologetic smile, "Sister Fox, I have earned the ransom money. Can you redeem my clothes?"
Hu Ling'er took the purse, weighed it, nodded and said, "Wait a moment, I'll get it for you."
Yun Que was very grateful.
Hu Ling'er went back to the house to retrieve his clothes and said loudly, "Those who owe me money, hurry up and pay me to redeem your IOUs."
After a while, several scholars came over with sullen faces to redeem the IOUs. Hu Ling'er was very satisfied and said, "Next time you are defeated by the young master, I can give you a 20% discount."
A scholar shook his head and said, "The Imperial College Doctor is a sixth-rank official. Who dares to attack him?"
Hu Ling'er was stunned for a moment, then turned to Qin Mu and said, "Master, our source of income has been cut off. We are going to live off our savings and cannot afford to support this big guy!"
Long Qilin shrank his head and said hesitantly, "One liter of Red Fire Spirit Pill a day is also fine, as long as you give it to someone to eat..."
Qin Mu comforted him, "Don't worry, I can support you. By the way, do you have any saliva? Give me a bottle, I'll take it and see if I can exchange it for money."
Hu Ling'er took out the jade bottle and took a bottle of ambergris. Qin Mu put away the bottle and told them to stay at home. He went to the Imperial Physician's Palace. Several old doctors were studying the elixir recipe in the palace. They were all happy to see him and said with a smile: "The little genius doctor is finally back! What elixir do you plan to make this time? If it is an anesthetic or poison, you must inform us in advance!"
Qin Mu greeted the imperial doctors and said, "This time I'm here to ask a few of them to test the medicine." After that, he took out the small jade bottle.
When several imperial doctors saw the small jade bottle, their faces changed drastically. Imperial Doctor Yu said tremblingly, "I recognize this bottle. Could it be another anesthetic?"
"No, it's a healing elixir."
Qin Mu had just said this when Doctor You took out a small knife, hesitated for a moment, and then cut Doctor Ding's arm with a knife, and blood flowed out.
Doctor Ding was furious and was about to lose his temper when Qin Mu hurried forward, opened the jade bottle, took out some ambergris and smeared it on the wound. The wound immediately began to heal, and in a few breaths it was back to normal without a scar.
Several doctors were surprised and came forward quickly. Doctor Yu asked, "What kind of injuries can this healing medicine treat? Can it replant a severed limb?"
Qin Mu nodded: "Okay. Someone's waist was cut off, and I used this medicine to connect the waist and restore it to its original state. However, this medicine is only auxiliary, and it is also necessary to connect the muscles and nerves, which is extremely demanding."
Doctor Ding saw Doctor You raising his knife again and shouted, "If you dare to chop me, I will poison your entire family!"
Doctor You couldn't bring himself to do it, so he walked out of the hall. After a while, he came in with a scholar. The other doctors shook their heads. Doctor Yu stamped his feet and said, "Old You, are you crazy? Even if you want to test the medicine, you can't cut off his hands and feet!"
The scholar was so frightened that he ran away. Imperial Physician You wanted to catch him back, but the other imperial physicians stopped him and said, "No, absolutely not. The scholar is an eighth-rank official. If you cut off his hands and feet, you will be sued. Taoist Lingyun's crane fought with the blue bull of Bashan Jiji a few days ago, and the blue bull broke its leg. Go get the crane, cut off its leg and then reattach it!"
Doctor You went out and came back with the crane after a while. Doctor Qu pinched the crane's mouth. The crane was terrified and could not struggle, so Doctor You chopped off its leg along its injured leg.
Several imperial doctors cleaned up the broken bones and waited for Qin Mu to treat them.
After a while, Taoist Lingyun rushed in. Just as he was about to get angry, he saw Qin Mu reconnecting the broken bones of the crane, connecting the muscles and nerves, and opening up the bone marrow.
Taoist Lingyun didn't dare to speak, and the imperial doctors didn't let go until Qin Mu's injured leg was reattached.
The crane quickly stood up, stretched its legs, and was inexplicably surprised. Then it bowed and thanked Qin Mu. Its voice was crisp, but it was the voice of a little girl.
Qin Mu wrote down another prescription and handed it to Taoist Ling Yun, saying, "Use this prescription to make medicine and boil water to soak her injured leg. It can dredge the meridians and relieve the hidden dangers."
Taoist Lingyun was surprised and delighted to see Xianhe recover. He quickly took the prescription, thanked him repeatedly, and said with a smile: "You humiliated me in front of the emperor. I was a little resentful at first, but now I am a little grateful."
Qin Mu smiled and said, "No fight, no acquaintance."
Taoist Lingyun always felt that these words were a bit awkward and inappropriate to use here, but he didn't bother to think about it and hurriedly called away the crane to go to the treasury to get medicine.
Qin Mu smiled and said, "My dear doctors, how much is this bottle of medicine worth? I'm short of money recently."
Several imperial doctors were surprised and delighted. Imperial Doctor Yu said, "The little genius doctor wants to sell it? It must be worth a lot. This kind of medicine is more precious than any natural treasures to the soldiers on the battlefield! I estimate that it will cost at least tens of thousands of Dafeng coins!"
Qin Mu was surprised and asked, "Faster than when Fan Yunxiao robbed us?"
"What?" Several imperial doctors didn't hear clearly.
"nothing."
Qin Mu smiled and said, "I can refine one bottle every day, and it will be worth ten thousand gold coins. How about selling it to the Imperial Medical Palace?"
The eyes of several imperial doctors lit up and they looked at each other. Imperial Doctor Yu smiled and said, "Of course that's good."
Qin Mu was satisfied and said goodbye. Several doctors gathered their heads together, and Doctor Qu said, "We've made a fortune!"
The doctors nodded in excitement and said, "Old Yu is really smart. This small bottle of medicine is worth more than ten thousand gold! We can make half more if we resell it!"
Qin Mu walked out of the Imperial Physician's Hall and returned to the Scholar's Residence. Suddenly, a voice came from behind him: "Little bald donkey, where is your Qiluo Zen stick?"
Qin Mu stopped, turned around, looked at the purple-robed old man behind him, smiled, and bowed, saying, "Student greets Grand Priest Gu."
The old man in purple was Gu Li Nuan. The nine emblems no longer appeared on his purple robe. It was obvious that he had taken off the official uniform of the first rank and put on the official uniform of the third rank.
Gu Li Nuan smiled slightly, walked up to him, and said leisurely: "You cheated me of my Shao Bao sword. Did you know that you would end up like this, and that you would end up in my hands one day?"
Qin Mu shook his head and asked, "Why do you say that, High Priest?"
Gu Li Nuan smiled proudly and stretched out his hand: "Give it to me!"
Qin Mu shook his head again: "I never return anything I cheated."
Gu Li Nuan's eyes flashed with ferocity, but Qin Mu was not afraid at all. He said, "I am now a sixth-rank official, a doctor of the Imperial College appointed by the emperor. I was also the one who cured the empress dowager's illness. If you touch me, the emperor will kill your whole family."
Boom!
The demonic energy around Gu Li Nuan was turbulent, and transformed into a hundred-foot-tall demon god behind him, full of murderous intent. The hundred-foot-tall demon god made the air around him solidify, and it seemed that even the space was distorted, making the demon god look like the ground scorched by the afternoon sun, staring at him viciously.
Qin Mu smiled slightly and said, "Is there anything else, High Priest?"
Gu Li Nuan said coldly: "If I want to kill you, I don't need to do it myself."
"You wouldn't dare."
Before Qin Mu could speak, a voice came from behind Gu Li Nuan, saying, "If you touch my junior brother, I will kill your entire family without the emperor having to do so."
Gu Li Nuan's body was stiff, and he felt as if an indestructible knife was placed on his neck. He laughed and said, "Ba Shan Ji Jiu? You want to stand up for this little bald donkey?"
Bashan Jiji stood behind him with his arms open, the two swords behind him clanking in their scabbards. He said expressionlessly, "Old Gu, you haven't appeared for two hundred years, and your Taoist magic is outdated. Do you want me to give you some pointers?"
Gu Li Nuan suddenly laughed out loud, and his body turned into a demonic energy and disappeared. His voice came from afar: "Teach me? It would be better if you could use Heavenly Blade!"
Qin Mu turned around and suddenly saw a blade of energy breaking through the air and chasing after the evil energy.
"Bashan Jijiu has always liked fighting, and he is excited to see prey. I think he will fight with Gu Li Nuan. It's a pity that I can't catch up."
Qin Mu sighed and returned to the Scholar's Residence. As soon as he entered the door, he heard Hu Ling'er's voice: "Sir, we have guests."
When Qin Mu walked in, he was startled to see the middle-aged man waiting in the yard with his hands behind his back.
Imperial Master of Yankang.
Imperial Master Yankang turned around and looked at him: "The Holy Master of the Tiansheng Sect, I didn't expect that you would be the first doctor of the Imperial Academy. It's really interesting."
