Siheyuan: Sap is the last word

"Uncle, stop joking. I have something to do, so I'll leave first." He Yudong turned around and wanted to slip away.

"Hey, don't go!" The old man grabbed him and said, "Don't be ungrateful, kid! I'm telling you, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you!"

"What opportunity?" He Yudong was confused by his weird look.

"Become...the son-in-law of the God of Land!" the old man said word by word.

He Yudong: ???

Before He Yudong could react, the old man grabbed his arm and jogged through the woods to a dilapidated courtyard.

The old man panted, pointed to a house in the yard, and said anxiously: "Young man, go and see my granddaughter quickly, she is dying!"

He Yudong was confused, but seeing that the old man was extremely anxious, he didn't ask any more questions and followed him into the house.

The room was dimly lit, and the air was filled with the smell of Chinese medicine. A young girl was lying on the bed, her face pale and her breathing weak.

The old man trembled as he walked to the bedside, held the girl's hand, and cried, "My dear granddaughter, what happened to you?"

He Yudong looked at this scene and couldn't help but feel some sympathy in his heart. Although he didn't know what happened, looking at the situation, the girl might have some serious illness.

"Uncle, don't be anxious, let me take a look first." He Yudong said, walked forward and reached out to touch the girl's forehead.

"It's terribly hot!" He Yudong was shocked. The girl had a high fever and the situation was critical!

"System, hurry up, is there any way to save her?" He Yudong asked anxiously in his heart.

"Ding! A critically ill patient is detected near the host. It is recommended to use the skill: Miraculous Resurrection."

"Miraculous healing?" He Yudong was stunned, then overjoyed, "Yes! How could I have forgotten this!"

He Yudong quickly concentrated his mind and mobilized the "miraculous healing" skill in his body.

In an instant, a warm current surged out from He Yudong's palm, flowing along the girl's forehead and throughout her body.

He Yudong only felt a flash before his eyes, and countless medical knowledge suddenly emerged in his mind, including diagnostic methods and treatment plans for various difficult and complicated diseases, flashing by quickly like a movie scene.

At the same time, He Yudong's hands seemed to be endowed with magic power. He could clearly feel the blood flow in the girl's body, the functioning of her organs, and even the breathing of every cell.

"So that's it, this girl has been poisoned!" He Yudong saw the root of the disease at a glance and immediately had an idea in his mind.

"Uncle, don't worry, I have a way to save her!" He Yudong said, taking out a silver needle bag from the cloth bag he carried with him.

This silver needle bag was given to He Yudong by an old Chinese doctor before he was reborn. He said it was an heirloom and should not be shown to others unless absolutely necessary.

He Yudong originally regarded this silver needle bag as a souvenir, but he didn't expect it to come in handy today.

He skillfully took out the silver needle, disinfected it, and began to give the girl acupuncture.

One by one, the silver needles were accurately inserted into the girl's acupuncture points. The technique was so skillful that the old man was stunned.

"This, this young man is really a miracle doctor!" The old man sighed in his heart. He originally thought that he was just a charlatan who talked nonsense, but he didn't expect that he was really capable!

As the silver needles were inserted one by one, the girl's face gradually regained its rosy color and her breathing became steady.

He Yudong let out a long sigh, put away the silver needle, and said to the old man: "Uncle, I have sealed the toxins in her body with the silver needles. Now I need to make her a detoxifying soup to completely eradicate it."

"Okay, okay, I'll go and make it right away!" The old man was so excited that he quickly got up and went to prepare the tools for making the medicine.

He Yudong walked to the bedside and looked at the sleeping girl, feeling filled with emotion.

"This girl is so pretty and charming..." He Yudong couldn't help but look at her a few more times, and felt an inexplicable beating in his heart.

Suddenly, the girl's eyelids trembled slightly and she slowly opened her eyes.

When their eyes met, time seemed to stand still.

"You, who are you?" the girl asked weakly, her voice as clear and sweet as an oriole.

Before He Yudong could answer, he heard hurried footsteps outside the door.

"Old man, are you home?" A rough voice sounded, and then a burly man, accompanied by several ferocious thugs, broke into the house.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?" He Yudong was shocked and quickly stood in front of the girl and asked vigilantly.

The sturdy man looked He Yudong up and down, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Where did you come from? I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, otherwise..."

"What else?" He Yudong looked at him without fear.

"Otherwise, I'll kill you!" the sturdy man said viciously, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

He Yudong was dragged by the old man, stumbling all the way, his mind a mess.

"Uncle, please slow down, slow down!" He Yudong was a little confused by this sudden change, "Who are you? What do you want from me?"

The old man turned a deaf ear to him, walked quickly, and pounded his cane on the ground with a "dong dong" sound, as if he couldn't wait to fly to his destination in the next second.

The two walked through the dense woods and came to a secluded courtyard. The courtyard looked quite old, with a mottled red paint wooden door and moss-covered walls, all of which exuded a sense of decay.

"This is it." The old man stopped and looked back at He Yudong. His cloudy eyes actually flashed with a rare brilliance. "Boy, come in with me."

He Yudong followed the old man into the yard, confused.

As soon as he entered the door, a strong medicinal fragrance hit his nose. The yard was full of various exotic flowers and plants, many of which He Yudong had never seen before.

"Could this old man be an old Chinese doctor?" He Yudong wondered secretly in his heart.

The old man took He Yudong to the main room. The room was simply furnished with an octagonal table, a few chairs, and a painting hanging on the wall. It looked quite antique.

"Sit down." The old man pointed to a chair and sat down on the armchair.

He Yudong sat down as he was told and looked around curiously.

"Boy, what's your name?" The old man poured himself a cup of tea and asked slowly.

"He Yudong." He Yudong answered honestly.

"He Yudong..." The old man repeated several times, and suddenly put down the teacup, staring at He Yudong with burning eyes, "You just said that you are a reborn person?"

"Uh...yes." He Yudong felt uneasy when the old man looked at him. The old man's eyes made it seem like he wanted to eat him alive.

"Then do you know who I am?" The old man spoke in a low voice, but with an aura of majesty that came from his lack of anger.

He Yudong shook his head. How would he know who this old man was?

"I am the Pavilion Master of the Tianji Pavilion, also known as - Old Man Tianji!" The old man spoke word by word with a hint of pride in his tone.

"Tianji Pavilion? Old Man Tianji?" He Yudong was totally confused. What was going on?

"Boy, you don't know this," said the old man Tianji, stroking his beard, "This Tianji Pavilion was founded by my ancestors hundreds of years ago. It specializes in collecting strange stories from all over the world and predicting good and bad fortune in the future."

"As the heir of Tianji Pavilion, I have been proficient in divination since I was young. I can know the past and the future and understand the secrets of heaven." Old Man Tianji paused and stared at He Yudong with a sharp gaze. "So, who are you and where are you from? I know it very clearly!"

He Yudong's heart skipped a beat. Could this old man really be that powerful?

"You don't have to be afraid." Elder Tianji seemed to see through He Yudong's thoughts and smiled faintly, "I have no ill intentions in calling you here."

"Then you asked me to come here, because..." He Yudong asked tentatively.

"I heard that you have unique medical skills that can bring people back to life and turn bones into flesh. I wonder if it's true or not?" Old man Tianji stared at He Yudong with burning eyes, his eyes full of expectation.

"Unparalleled medical skills? Bringing people back to life, turning flesh into bones?" He Yudong was stunned. When did he learn medical skills?

Could it be...

He Yudong suddenly remembered the "Resurrection" skill that the system rewarded him!

Could this be the peerless medical skill that old man Tianji mentioned?

"I..." He Yudong was about to speak, but old man Tianji grabbed his wrist, and a warm air flow instantly flowed through his body.

"He is indeed a rare medical genius!" Old Man Tianji was very excited. "Child, come with me. I have something to ask of you!"

Old man Tianji didn't say anything and pulled He Yudong into the inner room.

Before He Yudong could react, he was pushed into a dimly lit room.

There was a faint smell of blood in the room. A pale woman with a weak breath was lying on the bed. She was the girl I met in the woods before!

"Please, save her..." Old Man Tianji suddenly knelt down in front of He Yudong, tears streaming down his face. "She is my granddaughter and my only relative..."

He Yudong looked at the scene in front of him with mixed feelings.

Although he was not a saint, he couldn't bear to see an old man crying in front of him.

What's more, this girl had helped him out before.

"Old man, please get up first. I will do my best." He Yudong helped old man Tianji up, walked to the bedside, and carefully checked the girl's injuries.

Upon seeing this, He Yudong took a breath of cold air!

He Yudong was dragged by the old man's arm and stumbled all the way, unable to utter even a complete sentence.

Although the old man looked frail, his hands were quite strong and he pinched him so hard that it hurt.

"Uncle, please go slower, slower..." He Yudong gasped in pain, "What do you want from me? I'm so nervous!"

The old man turned a deaf ear to him and ran deep into the woods, stopping only when they reached a secluded open space.

He looked around vigilantly and made sure that no one was following him. Then he let go of He Yudong and breathed a sigh of relief.

He Yudong rubbed his wrist which was pinched red, and looked at the old man with resentment on his face. This old man looked kind, so why was he so cruel?

"Sir, what on earth are you......"
