Chapter 414 Do the Gu Insects of Miao Territory Really Exist?
Chapter 414 Do the Gu Insects of Miao Territory Really Exist?
After saying goodbye to Gu's mother and the others, Su Niannian went out with Guo Futian.
"Niannian, please be careful when you go out," Gu's mother said to Su Niannian as she was leaving.
Su Niannian nodded, indicating that she understood.
In the car, Su Niannian asked Guo Futian what kind of patient he was.
Guo Futian said to Su Niannian, "It's the Mr. Jin that Master saw yesterday."
"The symptoms are a bit strange. My master said it seems like I've been poisoned by a Gu."
"Anyway, the situation is rather special." Guo Futian wasn't actually very clear about the specifics.
But since Master sent me here to find Su Niannian, there must be a reason.
Su Niannian nodded.
Is it a Gu poison? Could it be the kind of Gu worm from Miao territory?
In her previous life, Su Niannian knew some things about the Gu worms of Miao territory, but...
If it really is a Gu worm, I'm afraid I won't be able to deal with it.
However, Su Niannian was very curious about what the situation would be.
The car drove towards downtown Beijing.
More than an hour later, the car stopped in front of Baicaotang.
"Miss Su, please wait in the car for a moment. I'll go and call Master," Guo Futian said to Su Niannian.
Su Niannian nodded and stayed in the car.
Guo Futian got out of the car and went to Baicaotang to call out his master.
Old Master Bai got into the car and sat in the back seat with Su Niannian.
Before getting into the car, Guo Futian put a large medicine box in the trunk.
I sat in the driver's seat, started the car, and drove further into the city.
When Su Niannian saw her grandfather get into the car, she greeted him.
"Good morning, Grandpa! Have you had breakfast yet?"
"Ate."
"Girl, do you know about the Gu worms of Miao territory?" Old Master Bai asked Su Niannian.
In fact, even Grandpa Bai wasn't sure if his girl knew about Gu worms.
However, his granddaughter was not an ordinary traditional Chinese medicine doctor, and she also had some secrets that he had not dared to ask her directly.
Although it's uncertain whether Su Niannian knows about Gu worms, that magical water might be of some help.
“I know a little,” Su Niannian replied with a smile.
When Grandpa Bai heard Su Niannian say that, his eyes lit up.
"Girl, the old man Jin we're going to see later once saved old man Lu's life. His youngest son is in trouble now, and if possible, we hope you can save his life."
"After all, old man Lu owes them a life." As he spoke, Old Master Bai gave Su Niannian a deep look.
Su Niannian knew that this was something she had to repay a favor with.
My grandfather told me this, which probably means that I could use some of the spiritual spring water if necessary.
Su Niannian nodded knowingly.
Grandpa Bai patted Su Niannian's hand.
The grandfather and grandson understood each other perfectly without saying a word.
The car continued driving.
They stopped outside a courtyard.
Several people got out of the car.
This courtyard, located in a bustling downtown area, is a detached house, indicating that the residents are either very wealthy or of high status.
The main entrance looks grand and imposing, yet it doesn't lack charm.
There were already people waiting at the door. When they saw that it was Old Master Bai bringing people over, they quickly greeted him with smiles.
"Mr. Bai has arrived. Please come in." The speaker was a middle-aged man.
Upon seeing Old Master Bai, they hurriedly bowed and scraped, showing great politeness and respect.
Grandpa Bai nodded as a greeting, and followed the man inside.
Su Niannian and Guo Futian followed behind, with Guo Futian still holding the box that was in the trunk.
Upon entering the courtyard, one finds a very large space with artificial hills, flowing water, and various stone-built landscape features.
You can tell at first glance that they are a wealthy family.
After passing through the courtyard, there is another courtyard, which covers a very large area.
Su Niannian thought to herself, if this were the old days, it would have been occupied by at least a high-ranking official or a prince.
It's been made to look like a prince's palace.
After several twists and turns, the person finally stopped at an antique-style doorway.
"Master Jin is inside. Please wait a moment, Master Bai, while I go in and inform him." The man said, nodding to Master Bai and knocking on the door before entering.
Su Niannian was momentarily stunned; this... looked like an old TV drama.
A moment later, the man came out and gestured for Old Master Bai to enter.
"Please come in, everyone," the man said.
Old Master Bai nodded slightly and went inside.
Su Niannian and Guo Futian followed behind.
Once inside, Su Niannian could tell that everything inside was made up of antiques…
It truly broadened Su Niannian's horizons.
I never imagined that there would be a place like this in Beijing.
What? Don't they check this above?
Are families like this still allowed to exist?
Eight Immortals Table, Grand Master's Chair, and all sorts of blue and white porcelain and official kiln porcelain vases—it's practically a museum.
Many of the antiques are still in use, and even the teapot and teacups on the table are clearly antiques, according to Su Niannian.
There were also some carved ornaments that made Su Niannian momentarily lose her composure.
I almost thought I had traveled into an ancient TV series.
Just then, an old man dressed in a Tang suit walked over.
She greeted her grandfather.
Su Niannian's maternal grandfather was also wearing a Tang suit. The two old men standing together looked a bit out of place.
The two elderly gentlemen, dressed in Tang suits, looked energetic and in good spirits.
"Brother Bai is here. Please sit down and have a cup of tea," the old man in a Tang suit asked Old Master Bai.
"No need," Old Master Bai said, waving his hand. "I brought my granddaughter with me today. The matter is urgent. Why don't you let my granddaughter see your youngest son first?"
At this moment, the old man in the Tang suit looked behind Old Master Bai.
Yesterday, Grandpa Bai said that the situation was not good and he wanted to ask his granddaughter to come and help take a look. Grandpa Jin even joked with him, saying, "If you can't take good care of her, how can your granddaughter take good care of her?"
Grandpa Bai said mysteriously that his granddaughter was even more capable than himself.
Grandpa Jin was somewhat skeptical, but now he's seen Su Niannian's true colors...
She looks like a teenage girl, is she really capable?
Mr. Jin had a big question mark in his mind.
However, even if this young girl really has no ability, since she's here, out of respect for Old Master Bai, it's not right to embarrass her.
Grandpa Jin greeted Su Niannian with a smile, then stepped aside to make way for her.
Su Niannian then noticed the person lying on the bed.
He was a middle-aged man who looked to be around forty years old.
There were large beads of sweat on his forehead, and he was covered with a cotton quilt.
On a day like this, lying here covered with a quilt, doesn't it seem a bit strange?
Aren't you afraid of getting heatstroke?
