Chapter 1365 Bribed by a pot of medicinal cuisine
Feng Jiu stopped speaking. She stood up and yawned.
Seeing this, the old man chuckled. “Little Brother, please.” With this, he took Feng Jiu to the back.
After arriving there, Feng Jiu saw that there was something special about this place. At the front was a medicinal hall and behind it was a small courtyard. But, after pa.s.sing through the small courtyard, it was connected with another wall. When they stepped into the courtyard behind the other wall, there was a different atmosphere from the front one.
If there were several breaths hiding at the hospital in front, there were no less than ten kinds of breaths lurking in the dark in this courtyard and one of them should have been the breath of a Celestial Strong Exponent.
When he sensed that strong exponent, her mind stirred. What kind of place was this Rejuvenation Hall? Who were the people in this courtyard? With such power, why couldn’t they find a physician with excellent medical skills?
“Little Brother, tonight I’ll inconvenience you to stay here first!” The old man took Feng to one of the rooms and told him meaningfully. “I hope Little Brother can have a good rest tonight. Adjust your mood and raise your spirit, tomorrow morning I will come to see you.”
Feng Jiu watched the old man departing after leaving those words. Her eyes moved. She walked to the room and lay on the bed, but she was sleepless. She was worried about Zhu Yue because she didn’t see him again after coming in. On the other hand, she thought, who was the old friend in the old man’s mouth?
She could see that this man’s ident.i.ty was not simple. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to have so many strong exponents guarding both inside and outside the place. Moreover, if they really needed the help of physicians, it shouldn’t have been a hard thing to do with the strengths of these people.
She didn’t have a wink of sleep until it was dawn. So, as soon as daybreak, she got up and washed.
When she walked out the door, she happened to see the old man coming in, followed by a child carrying breakfast.
“Little Brother, are you already up? I’ve just had breakfast brought for you.” The old man motioned to the little boy behind him to put the things on the table and withdraw.
“Little Brother, I experimented with herbs yesterday. Although you don’t feel unwell, I still asked someone to make a medicated diet to nourish your body. Would you like to have a taste?”
Seeing this, Feng Jiu nodded and stepped forward. Medicinal cuisine. This was not what ordinary physicians or healers would do. In addition, she couldn’t resist the temptation to eat. Anyway, she would try it first.
She sat down and opened it to take a look. She saw the clearing and supplementing ingredients were added to the black chicken congee. She had one more bowl. The faint medicinal fragrance, especially angelica sinensis among others, accompanied by the smell of black chicken came to her nostrils, increasing her appet.i.te.
She couldn’t help smiling and also started eating without observing proprieties.
Delicious things could always bring people a happy mood. After finis.h.i.+ng the small pot of congee, she put down the bowl with satisfaction. As she looked up, she saw the old man’s amazed look. It seemed that he didn’t expect that a person could finish the small pot of congee.
“Haha, Little Brother, you have a good appet.i.te. It’s great to be young!” He smiled ruefully. Only young people could eat so much. If it were him, even if it was tasty and suited his appet.i.te, he wouldn’t be able to finish this much food.
Feng Jiu wiped her mouth and stood up: “How can I help you? Please say it!”
Hearing this, the old man looked straight and said, “Little Brother, come with me.” With that, he turned to lead the way and took Feng Jiu to the house next door.
