Chapter 708: Human Swine (2/2)

It turned out that after Ming Gui followed Eunuch Yuan and the others into the Chen Family's warehouse, he was found by Eunuch Yuan. The old man had him outnumbered and captured. Eunuch Yuan wanted to get information about the hidden guards on Prince Jing's Estate. However, as one of the ten leaders of the hidden guard, how could Ming Gui disclose his own information? Even though he suffered from inhumane torture, he still clenched his teeth and said nothing.

Zhu Junyang saw that his arms and legs looked as if they had no bones and knew that the bones of his limbs had been broken. Even if he survived, he would become a disabled man.

”Yuanzi, give him a Nine Turns Golden Elixir and send him to the Tongren Medicine Hall. Ask the doctors to connect his bones. When I get back, I'll make a bone growth cream.... maybe he'll be able to stand up..” However, he wouldn't be able to return to the hidden guards. Yu Xiaocao's expression was suddenly a little gloomy.

The little divine stone poured out a Nine Turns Golden Elixir from a jade bottle and threw it at Ming Xin. He then asked Yu Xiaocao, [How do you know the name that was given to me by the Goddess Nuwa?]

That was right. Yuanzi was the nickname the Goddess Nuwa gave the little divine stone when he had just become sentient. It had always liked this name, although the name ‘Yuanzi’[1] wasn’t very lofty and grand.

”You told me a long time ago, didn't you? I didn't expect the immortals to be so forgetful. ” Yu Xiaocao was lying on the door plank with a slight pain in her abdomen. Strange, she was hit in the chest, so why would her stomach ache? Could pain be transferred?

The little divine stone pursed his lips, but the corners of his mouth still couldn't help rising. The human master still attached great importance to it. She still remembered what he said when she first came here!

”Young Miss! Miss...wah wah wah wah...” Wutong, who had gone out to send information, was not allowed in until after Chen Family and the Underground Warehouse fell. As soon as she came in, she saw her weak master lying on the door. Her tears poured out like rain.

Xiaocao had originally closed her eyes and finally opened them after several tears fell on her face. She said, ”Wutong, I am all right! I’m pretty dirty right now, don't use your tears to wash my face anymore, ok? ”

”Mistress, you’re alright? This is great! I was so afraid... If anything happened to you, how will I live in the world, wah wah wah... ” Wutong thought of her mistress’s serious injury. Despite that,  Xiaocao had still supported her and fought to give her a chance to escape. She thought, ‘No one can ever separate me from her. My life is for her and I will always be by her side!’

Hou Xiaoliang, “...” (The wife who was finally in reach was gone again? Why was it so hard to marry someone!)

Yu Xiaocao rolled her eyes and said, “Aren’t I perfectly fine right now. You told the prince in time and the prince also came in time to save me. I have already taken a Nine Turns Golden Elixir. Most of my internal injuries are healed and there are only a few scratches left. After resting for a few days, it’ll be fine. Don’t cry, my wounds are starting to hurt because of your crying.”

Hou Xiaoliang looked at his future wife who had cried until her eyes were red and puffy and couldn’t help saying, “Mistress is correct. Stop crying, be careful that your crying will ruin your eyes. Her Highness still needs you!”

“What you said is right!” Wutong wiped the tears off her face with her sleeve and finally stopped crying, “This time Chuanhua came out with the two of us again and she got hurt again. I will be the only one by Mistress’s side. I have to be well so I can take care of her… Pay more attention and don’t bump her into anything!”

Yu Xiaocao was soon carried to Tongren Medicine Hall, where she was treated by her old acquaintance——Doctor Sun. Doctor Sun originally lived in the small town, Tanggu, and was not valued by his family. Later, due to Xiaocao’s superb medicines, Tongren Medicine Hall gained a chance of survival.

Tongren Medicine Hall then became a leader in the pharmaceutical industry because of its exclusive sales of Yu Family’s pills and solutions in the beginning. Its sales of other drugs more than doubled because of this. As a result, Doctor Sun was transferred from the small town of Tanggu to the general shop of Jiangnan’s Tongren Medicine Hall in Jinling and became a popular doctor. His medical skills were gradually recognized by his family and he became a famous expert in Jinling.

”Oh! Lass, what's wrong with you? ” When Doctor Sun saw his old acquaintance, he was shocked. After a while, he couldn't help but sigh. Even if he was thousands of miles away from the Yu Family, the connection still couldn’t be cut.

In Tanggu, he helped the lass, Xiaocao, take care of her illness, helped her mother to take care of her weak body, treated her father's leg bitten by the blind bear, and dragged Yu Hang back from the gates of hell. How could he once again meet this girl in Jinling?
