Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Uncle Master is supreme! Please accept a bow from your nephew-disciple!
"Was it from Qi Shan? Is there a problem with Song Yun's medicinal recipe?"
Ouyang Shu's expression turned stern. At this critical juncture where friend and foe were indistinguishable, suppressing any news about Song Yun was the least he could do for an old friend!
Ouyang Rong shook his head, puzzled, "I'm not sure, Qi Shan seemed to attach great importance to that recipe, and even asked where Song Yun currently is..."
Ouyang Shu, furious, slapped his son on the head, "Are you stupid? You just answer other people's questions? What if Qi Shan thinks something's wrong with the recipe and it could endanger my health??? When the authorities start asking questions, won't everything be exposed about Song Yun???"
Regaining his wits, Ouyang Rong had an epiphany and hurriedly proposed to his father, "Then I'll take Song Yun and run, I'll personally escort them back to Magic Capital. You can handle the delaying tactics here!"
"You, you!!!"
Ouyang Shu sighed. Given the situation, this was the best outcome.
But who would have thought that just as they returned to the living room, a commotion erupted from outside.
Ouyang Rong took a careful look and realized, it's over!!!
Qi Shan rushed in with a group of private doctors, and the Ouyang Family's juniors didn't dare to stop them, only able to follow on from the sidelines.
"Brother Qi Shan, what happened?"
Ouyang Shu feigned ignorance and hastened to greet him, shaking hands and asking.
"Brother Ouyang!!!"
Qi Shan, his expression filled with urgency, hopped and shouted, "I have found our sect's elder!!! Where is Song Yun, where is Master Song!!!"
"Shh, shh, shh!"
Ouyang Shu frowned, first sending all the onlooking juniors away, then pulled Qi Shan aside, asking in confusion, "Are you sure Song Yun is an elder of your lineage? Doesn't sound likely, does it?"
"Why not! Do you know where the two recipes Ouyang Rong showed my disciple came from?" Qi Shan, unable to contain his joy, smiled and said, "They come from the 'Treatise on Injuries and Diseases' personally compiled by my master! But, unfortunately, there was a great fire later, and the rare book that housed countless cases and recipes burned down!"
"The remaining recipes were incomplete, but just now, when I compared the recipe to other medical books, I found an ingredient that perfectly filled the gap left by the fire!"
"Divine Doctor Hall... Qi Shan..."
Ye Qingqing's eyes widened in shock at the side. Elder Qi was a famous doctor in Hua Country, and someone countless people wanted to connect with—someone no less significant than Elder Ouyang. How did they come across such a figure?
Then, thinking of the prescription Song Yun had written for Elder Ouyang Shu, Ye Qingqing's heart fluttered in panic. Could anything serious go wrong???
"Young Friend Song, I would like to ask, where did the prescription you gave to Elder Ouyang come from?"
Elder Qi pursed his lips, screaming inside: Just say you saw it on the internet, or found it in some ancient book at a street stall, or even if you made it up, it would be fine!
"Oh..." Song Yun said indifferently, "I studied with an old master for a few years, but later he said he wanted to travel the mountains and rivers, and he left."
"!!!"
"What did this old master look like? About how old?"
Startled by Elder Qi's sudden excitement, Song Yun stepped back, looking puzzledly at Ouyang Shu who merely shrugged.
Damn it, the problem with lying is that you can't ask too many details; you end up having to spin more lies to keep up!
After a moment's thought, Song Yun began, "I met him on a rainy night ten years ago. The old master was probably over eighty years old, with snow-white beard, kindly eyes, standing alone in the rain in a robe. I gave him an umbrella, and the old master said I had a remarkable bone structure and was a good material for studying medicine.
He insisted on taking me as his disciple, so I learned some skills from him."
Song Yun could only think of how masters were portrayed in novels, so he blurted that out impulsively.
Who would have expected Elder Qi to become even more excited, grabbing onto the table, panting heavily, his greedy eyes fixed on Song Yun.
Song Yun stepped back again, thinking, I know I'm handsome, but you can't keep staring at me like this, right? Besides, you're an old man! It's time to settle down!
"Great-uncle master above! Please accept your great-nephew's bow!"
Elder Qi knelt stiffly on the ground and knocked his head on the floor three times.
This move startled everyone in the house, including Ouyang Shu, who had not expected Qi Shan to do such a thing.
