"Young Master, are you looking for a place to stay? If you don't mind, you can stay at my place. My place is not far from the lake, and there's a house. I just happened to catch a few fish on the lake.”
After chatting with Guo Jianglong, Lu Yi had wanted to find an inn to spend the night.
It just so happened that Guo Jianglong had an empty room at home. After hearing Lu Yi's words, he had an idea and invited Lu Yi to stay at his house for a night.
It was too easy to earn Lu Yi's fifty taels of silver today, and Junshan had even given him some property, so he always wanted to make up for it.?However, he needed the money now, so he couldn't bear to return it to Lu Yi.
"Alright, then I'll stay at your place tonight.”
Lu Yi agreed without hesitation and went back with Guo Jianglong to spend the night at his place.
Lu Yi didn't have any special requirements for a place to stay, as long as it could shelter them from the wind and rain.
After all, it was still early spring, and Dongting Lake was relatively wet and cold.
Even though sleeping outside wouldn't affect Lu Yi's body, it was still uncomfortable.
Now that he didn't need to find an inn and had a place to stay, he could save some money.
Guo Jianglong's house was indeed not far from Dongting Lake, but his house was relatively deserted and not a very rich family. Other than a few children cheering to welcome him, he did not see his wife. This was very special.
"Go and clean up the fish. I'll cook later.”
It was rare to see a trace of warmth on the dragon that had returned home. After greeting the children, she brought Lu Yi to his room.
It seemed that he was both a father and a mother.
Lu Yi looked at him and asked curiously.?
This guy could get fifty taels of silver just by sending someone to Jun Mountain. This was enough for an ordinary family to live for a long time.
Why was his house so shabby? Where did all his money go?
"Where's your wife? Why didn't I see it?"
After listening to Lu Yi's words, Guo Jianglong's expression changed and he replied after a while.?
"She was possessed by a demon, so she was locked up in the backyard. Usually, I would bring her food and then get medicine to prolong her life. I didn't dare to let her come out.”
After Guo Jianglong heard Lu Yi's words, his face immediately turned gloomy. He explained to Lu Yi after a while.
There was another meaning to his words, which was to tell Lu Yi that he would not return the money he earned from Lu Yi today. He had to treat his wife.
"Bewitched? I'm a doctor. Let me check on your wife's condition.”
Lu Yi was even more curious after hearing that. Was there really evil in this world??
Now that Guo Jianglong said that there was an evil spirit here, he wanted to see what it was.
"Uh…we've looked for many doctors before, but none of them could treat him. Later, he met a Taoist priest who said that my wife was possessed by a demon and could only take medicine to prolong her life. According to the Taoist priest, he wanted to burn my wife to death, but I didn't want to, so I hid here.”
Guo Jianglong did not bring Lu Yi to see his wife. Instead, he hesitated and said,"
He didn't know why he had a good impression of Lu Yi, so he hesitated before telling Lu Yi this.
Besides, Lu Yi was a foreigner. Even if he knew about his wife, no one would believe him.?
He was telling Lu Yi that there was no cure for his wife's illness and that he had gone to many doctors.
"It's fine. Let's see if it can be cured first. As long as your wife doesn't hurt anyone, I won't be in danger.”
Lu Yi replied with a smile. He did know medicine, and he was probably better than most of the mortal doctors in this world.
After all, he was someone who stood on the shoulders of others and had come into contact with many people.
"She won't hurt anyone, but she looks a little scary.”
Guo Jianglong looked at Lu Yi and replied after a moment of hesitation.
Previously, the Taoist priest had asked him to burn his wife to death. The reason why Guo Jianglong did not do as he was told was that his wife would not hurt anyone and had not lost her mind. How could he burn his wife alive?
"It's fine. I've seen many strange patients. They're not that timid.”
Lu Yi smiled and continued to let Guo Jianglong take him there.?The more Guo Jianglong talked, the more interested he became.
There was actually a Taoist priest who had appeared. He had to see if that Taoist priest's level was real or if he was lying.
Guo Jianglong's wife was locked up in a small courtyard at the back. The inside was still very clean.
The two of them stood at a high place, so they could see the situation in the courtyard clearly.
Other than the fact that Guo Jiang Long's wife was thinner and had a bigger belly, Lu Yi did not notice anything special about her.
Because the distance was a little far, he had to get closer to see the exact situation.
"There's nothing to be afraid of. It's just that my stomach is bigger and I'm thinner.”
Lu Yi asked Guo Jianglong curiously. From a distance, Guo Jianglong's wife was not as scary as he said.
"She has been pregnant for five years! The Taoist priest I hired said that there is a demon in my wife's stomach. Once her stomach ruptures, it will be a disaster.。”
Seeing that Lu Yi didn't look scared, Guo Jianglong said after a moment of silence.
