Chapter 127 Atractylodes and Longevity
Maintaining a very good mood and with a gentle smile, Gu Chen and Paimeng came to Bubu Lu.
Just as they arrived at the door of Bubu House and hadn't even entered, Gu Chen and Paimeng heard a cough!
After looking at each other, they walked around the pillar and looked in the direction of the sound.
The coughing sound came from the side.
After a cough, another conversation was heard over there:
"Baizhu, you've used your secret method again, transferring your own vitality to the patient, and transferring the patient's illness to yourself.
I've told you so many times, but you never listen.
Sigh... How long can you keep doing this?"
"Cough cough cough...
Don’t worry about longevity, just use some secret techniques.
After all, the disease the patient suffers from this time is really rare and difficult to cure.
As for draining the pond to catch all the fish...
Haha, you know my ambition.
I will be your last contractor and sever the lonely fate that has been passed down from generation to generation in our lineage.
I can definitely do it, I can definitely do it."
Strange to say.
I clearly heard a conversation between them.
During the conversation, the person who spoke first had a clear and sweet voice, while the person who spoke later had a gentle and orderly voice.
But when I looked over, there was only one person there.
Paimon looked at him carefully with doubt and found that he was a tall and thin man with long green hair tied in a ponytail.
This person seems normal at first glance, but the most striking thing is that there is a long white snake coiled around his neck!
Paimon was not scared by the person, but by the snake. She subconsciously shrank back!
It was this shrinkage that caused some slight movements, and Bai Zhu on the other side immediately became alert:
"who!?"
Not only Bai Zhu was wary, but also Changsheng who was wrapped around his neck.
At this moment, the snake pupils in Bai Zhu's eyes and the human pupils in Changsheng's eyes stared at him fiercely at the same time, giving people a strong sense of oppression!
Unfortunately, this feeling of oppression is only limited to ordinary people and has no effect on Gu Chen.
Taking two steps forward, Gu Chen, with a calm demeanor and a smile on his face, brought the embarrassed Paimeng out to apologize:
“Sorry, Mr. Bai.
Paimon and I have no intention of disturbing anyone, let alone prying into their secrets.
I just heard an unusual cough and came over to check, but I didn't expect to overhear your conversation."
Seeing that it was Gu Chen and Pai Meng, Bai Zhu and Changsheng were subconsciously startled, and the vigilance and fierce momentum they had just shown also retreated.
Feeling a little relieved, Bai Zhu looked at Gu Chen:
"So it's Lord Gou Chenxing. How disrespectful."
Gu Chen smiled:
"It seems the people of Liyue Harbor have gradually gotten to know me. Even Mr. Bai has heard of me. I'm truly honored."
"What are you talking about?
I also heard about what happened at the ceremony of inviting the immortals.
You saved Liyue Harbor and the Emperor, and you are a well-deserved hero of the entire Liyue.
It is my honor to meet Lord Gou Chenxing."
Hearing Bai Zhu's words, Changsheng, who was surrounding his neck, was also a little surprised.
Its red snake eyes looked over curiously, and it spoke in human language:
"Oh? Are you the newly appointed Gou Chen Xing who has accomplished so many great things?
I've heard of you.
It is said that you have great magical powers and unpredictable means, and your status is only second to the Emperor, and higher than the Seven Stars of Liyue!
Now it seems... well, it's really not that simple."
Gu Chen was not surprised by Changsheng's words, but it scared Paimeng again.
The little guy was dumbfounded and shrank back a second time, feeling a little terrified:
“Huh!? The snake… the snake is talking!?”
A few tiny black lines seemed to appear on Changsheng's head:
"Sure enough, this reaction isn't surprising, but it still feels offensive."
As he spoke, Changsheng opened his mouth mischievously towards Paimon, showing his not-so-obvious teeth:
"Hey! You little unknown thing that can fly! Can't you talk too?
So what's so strange about me being able to talk?
You're not comparing me to those dried snakes in the drawer, are you? That's so rude!
Paimon hadn't recovered from the shock yet, still cowering back with his fists clenched in fear.
“That’s… that’s true, but…”
At this point, Paimon felt a little indignant for some reason:
“Paimon, of course I can speak.
But it's really strange that a snake like you can talk!"
Changsheng seemed to be angry. He closed his mouth and turned his snake head to the side, looking very arrogant and unwilling to pay attention to Paimeng.
Paimeng floated beside Gu Chen, her arms crossed, looking a little unhappy.
Looking at their companions, Gu Chen and Bai Zhu looked at each other, and suddenly they felt a sense of sympathy or the same feelings, not sure whether it was a feeling of sympathy.
Then, both of them laughed, and the slightly offensive atmosphere just now dissipated.
Everyone has partners, and their partners are all little ones. The little ones are by their side all day long and are very important to them.
Now it seems that Gu Chen and Bai Zhu do look a bit alike, so it's no surprise that they smile at each other.
Extending his hand, Gu Chen apologized again:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bai, Paimon was a little rude."
Bai Zhu smiled and waved his hands:
"No, Changsheng also has a little temper. I hope Master Gouchenxing will forgive me."
In this way, the two officially met, and Paimon and Changsheng also officially met.
Especially Paimeng, after a simple introduction by Gu Chen, he understood the general relationship between Baizhu and Changsheng, and gradually became accustomed to it.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Bai Zhu asked Gu Chen why he came:
"I wonder what brings you, Lord Gou Chenxing, to Bubulu today?
But...are you feeling unwell?"
Gu Chen shook his head:
“No, Paimon and I are both healthy.
This time I came to Bubulu because..."
Having said that, Gu Chen paused, mainly because he saw something that concerned him.
Without avoiding Bai Zhu, Gu Chen directly turned on the Ultra Vision and observed Bai Zhu's whole body.
While being observed, Bai Zhu keenly discovered that there was a glimmer of light in the eyes of this Lord Gou Chenxing.
As the glimmer of light passed by, it felt as if I was seen through!
Bai Zhu was shocked:
"Lord Gou Chenxing..."
Gu Chen turned off his Ultra Vision, his expression complicated:
"Mr. Bai, you have a weak constitution, your Qi and blood are deficient, and every one of your internal organs is diseased. Pathological conditions are affecting your entire body, and you're also suffering from a complex toxin buildup...
If a doctor doesn't treat himself, the situation is not good."
After hearing Gu Chen's diagnosis, the three people and one snake present were all shocked and silent.
Paimon couldn't believe it:
"A doctor who doesn't treat himself..."
Changsheng suddenly became emotional and started lecturing Baizhu:
"Baizhu! Look at you!
I'm not saying anything bad about you, but even this Gou Chen star can see it! You still don't value yourself!"
Bai Zhu, who was being lectured, smiled bitterly, his eyes showing interest:
"Lord Gou Chenxing's reputation for great magical powers is indeed well-deserved.
Ordinary people need a comprehensive diagnosis to judge, but you can see my clues at a glance."
