Liu Yifei looked up at Lin Fan in disbelief, and for a mont, he felt that the person standing in front of him was not a re human, but more like a deity willing to grant favors to the world for free.
Liu Yifei's eyes reddened, he opened his mouth but couldn't find the words, feeling there was no vocabulary to express his gratitude. He silently made a decision in his heart: the n of the dicine King Hall would be willing to serve Lin Fan for a lifeti!
"Get up." Lin Fan said again.
Liu Yifei nodded and slowly stood up, then waved and said, "Prepare seats for Mr. Lin and Miss Gu."
The two servants didn't dare to hesitate and quickly brought over redwood chairs.
Liu Houde looked at Lin Fan with affection, more intimate than seeing his own grandson, and said with a smile, "Divine Doctor Lin is not an outsider, besides, I know your ntor, let's just call you Lin."
"No problem." Lin Fan said carelessly.
"Lin, how is your ntor doing now?" Liu Houde asked with a smile.
"That old man is quite energetic every day, doing fine with nothing to do but go down the mountain to flirt with widows, living a good life." Lin Fan said lazily.
Back in the day when Lin Fan left the mountain, the old man was a famous handso elder in the area. Many widows from the mountain base would co up with various reasons to invite him ho for dinner. Whatever happened between them at ho is unknown, but ever since, if a man in the area went away for a long ti, he'd have soone keep an eye on his wife, afraid the old man would elope with her!
I rember one ti when Lin Fan went downhill to a famous restaurant to buy wine, he found the old man rolling in bed with a renowned flirtatious widow from the town. When the old man returned, Lin Fan, who was quite young at the ti, asked him if he enjoyed it, only to get beaten up.
Liu Houde showed a bit of envy and said, "There are not many people I admire in my life, and Elder Lin is one-tenth of them. When I saw him ten years ago, he was as fierce as a dragon or a tiger. I didn't expect him to still be as vigorous after ten years!"
Vigorous? Lin Fan sneered.
The last ti with that widow, it only took ten minutes before he returned to the mountain. I bet this old man is at most a 'one-shot knock-out'!
Then Lin Fan gathered his thoughts and asked, "Elder Liu, you've been poisoned with Gu poison. You must know very well about this poison. Did you offend anyone recently?"
Liu Houde's old face showed so self-deprecation as he sighed deeply, seemingly aging many years all of a sudden.
"When I saw this bonsai, I felt sothing was wrong. But after so many years, I didn't expect they still held a grudge against . I'm afraid as long as I live, this vendetta won't be resolved," Liu Houde said bitterly.
"Grandpa! At worst, we can hire more bodyguards to encircle the dicine King Hall like an iron barrel. I don't believe a re poisoner can break through the bodyguards' protection," Liu Yifei said fiercely, clenching his fists.
"Gu poison is mysterious and elusive. If they really want to act, even if you hire ten thousand bodyguards, you can't catch their tracks," Liu Houde said.
Lin Fan raised his eyebrows, feeling that this matter was not as straightforward as it seed!
"Elder Liu, would you mind telling
about this?" Lin Fan asked.
"Lin isn't an outsider, so it won't hurt to know."
Liu Houde took a deep breath and showed a face of reminiscence, saying, "Back in the day when I first ventured into dicine with my father, I went to a distant place to practice dicine. By coincidence, I saved a wealthy person who had been poisoned with Gu by an enemy who hired a Miao Race expert to do it."
"Out of a kind heart, I tried to trace and capture this harmful Poisonous Insect Master. Although I was lucky to capture her, it turned out she was the Miao Race queen. Unwilling to face imprisonnt, she took poison and committed suicide, vowing before her death that the Miao descendants would be enemies with
forever."
"I didn't expect that after more than twenty years, this hatred has not been diluted by ti, but rather intensified."
Liu Houde sighed deeply, closed his eyes, and showed a worried face!
Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei was furious and yelled, "Grandpa, at worst, I'll lead people to flatten the Miao Race. I refuse to believe they are stronger than bullets and cannons!"
"Outrageous!"
Liu Houde opened his eyes and shouted angrily.
It was the first ti Liu Yifei had seen Liu Houde so angry, and he shrank his neck in fear.
"Once you enter the Martial World, you are beyond self-control. The grievances of the Martial World still need to be resolved there," Lin Fan said with a wry smile.
"As the Buddhist saying goes, 'If I don't enter hell, who will?' I've already prepared for death," Liu Houde said determinedly.
Lin Fan sighed and said nothing.
Then, Liu Houde said, "I promised your ntor that once the matter was done, I would give you what you wanted, Yifei, go get the item."
"Yes, Grandpa."
Liu Yifei didn't dare to hesitate and quickly left the room.
Lin Fan's eyes lit up. The main reason he ca this ti was to obtain this item related to enhancing power.
In about three minutes, Liu Yifei returned to the room, holding a wooden box in his hands, and handed it to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan's eyes were filled with excitent. After opening it, inside the wooden box was an invitation letter.
Lin Fan raised his eyebrows in confusion, unsure of what it ant.
Liu Houde said, "This was sent by soone from an auction ten days ago, saying a mysterious gemstone brought from abroad has arrived, rumored to have the ability to enhance a Qi Gong Master's Powerful Qi like a consecrated Buddhist statue, though the truth of this is unknown."
"An auction? When is it?" Lin Fan asked urgently.
"Tonight at midnight, on the 'Diamond One' anchored at the seaside," Liu Houde answered.
Lin Fan frowned, feeling that this gemstone was quite mysterious. Moreover, the auction daring to invite soone as reputable as Liu Houde must an that there are rare treasures among the items for sale!
Lin Fan checked the ti and said, "Elder Liu, it's getting late. Please rest well. I will be on my way now."
"Very well, that gemstone should be very important to you, but at this auction, many powerful figures from abroad have also co. Be careful," Liu Houde advised kindly.
Lin Fan nodded, gave Liu Yifei instructions to take care of Liu Houde, and then hurriedly left the "dicine King Hall."
As soon as Lin Fan opened the car door, Gu Qingcheng imdiately sat in the passenger seat.
"Why are you getting in?" Lin Fan said in a deep voice.
"Anyway, I'm already your person. Wherever you go, I'll follow," Gu Qingcheng said coyly.
"Where I'm going is not a playful place. It could easily turn into a big fight, and it's uncertain if I'll return. Are you going with
to die?" Lin Fan said.
"If I die, then so be it. If we can't be together alive, we'll be together in death," Gu Qingcheng said stubbornly.
Lin Fan gave an exasperated roll of his eyes. It seed that unless this woman experienced it firsthand, she wouldn't give up.
So, Lin Fan chose not to waste any more words and drove to the riverside!
Though it was midnight, the riverside was still lively. A luxurious ship was moored at the shore, and faintly, shadows could be seen moving on the decks. The ship kept sounding its horn with "woo woo woo" noises!
Vroom vroom vroom~
Just as Lin Fan stopped the car steadily, the sound of engines started, and a row of cars slowly parked under the 'Diamond One' gangway.
A line of black-dressed bodyguards quickly ford a tight guard around the rcedes in the middle, from which a middle-aged man with a curved mustache slowly alighted!
"East Asian Little Devils? What are they doing here?" Lin Fan frowned, full of doubts!
It seed this auction was sure to be tumultuous, turning into a night of bloodshed!
