Song Mingyi asked Uncle Zhong and Aunt Zhang to take good care of the two children, and then hurried to the old house.

When they arrived, the room was already full of people, and the family doctor had also arrived and was treating the old man.

The people from the Lu family's side branch asked the doctor anxiously: "How is he? When will he wake up?"

Sweat oozed from the doctor's forehead. He shook his head and said with difficulty: "I don't know..."

"What do you mean you don't know? Aren't you a doctor? How come you don't know when the old man will wake up? I think you are a quack!"

The people from the Lu family's side branch angrily cursed the doctor.

They were really anxious and really didn't want anything to happen to Mr. Lu.

Compared to Lu Shenxing, Mr. Lu, who has become a little soft-hearted as he gets older, is the one they urgently need to please.

If anything happened to Mr. Lu, they would be in even worse trouble if they fell into Lu Shenxing's hands.

The doctor was almost crying when faced with so many accusations, but he couldn't see the old man's condition.

"The eldest master and the young mistress are here!"

Hearing the servant's voice, the anxious elders of the Lu family rushed over and tried to pull Song Mingyi.

However, before they could reach Song Mingyi, they were blocked by Lu Shenxing.

The elder of the Lu family was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said: "Shenxing, let your wife go see your grandfather! His condition is terrible!"

Song Mingyi immediately said: "I'll go see grandpa.

When the people from the Lu family saw Song Mingyi and Lu Shenxing coming, they quickly made way to let them in.

Song Mingyi walked to the bedside and saw Mr. Lu's expression, and her heart skipped a beat.

But she didn't show it on her face. She took out the golden needle and quickly stabbed it into the acupuncture point on Mr. Lu's chest.

Soon, Mr. Lu's breathing calmed down and his frowning brows relaxed a little.

Everyone in the Lu family breathed a sigh of relief: "Ming Yi, you are so amazing. You stabilized the old man's condition with just one move!"

"Yes, yes, it's amazing! You are worthy of being called a ghost doctor!

"It is a great blessing for our Lu family to marry such a good daughter-in-law!"

Everyone was praising Song Mingyi, but Lu Shenxing was the only one who noticed that Song Mingyi's expression was not right.

He opened his mouth and drove everyone out.

The relatives of the Lu family were very dissatisfied. In their opinion, Lu Shenxing was too disrespectful to them.

However, Lu Caishenxing is the current head of the Lu family. No matter how dissatisfied they are, they dare not say anything. They can only suppress their anger and leave angrily.

Lu Shenxing ignored everyone's dissatisfaction. He said solemnly, "Ming Yi, how is grandpa doing?"

Song Mingyi said: "Grandpa's condition is very bad. He is not sick, but has been poisoned by a Gu."

Song Mingyi looked solemn. He had never expected that he would see two poisonous insects in such a short period of time today.

She didn't notice the poisonous insect in Chen Rou's body before because it was dormant in her body, and before the poisonous insect was activated, there was nothing unusual about the host.

But Mr. Lu’s situation is different.

The poisonous insect in his body had existed for a long time. Even though no one had activated the insect, the sub-worms had grown a lot bigger and were gradually waking up and becoming active.

Such a highly poisonous substance was active in Mr. Lu's body, and he was so old, so naturally he couldn't resist it and fainted.

"What! You've been poisoned!" Lu Shenxing's expression changed.

Previously in the hospital, he had witnessed Chen Rou dying from a poisonous insect. Now that he knew that Mr. Lu had also been poisoned, how could Lu Shenxing not be shocked.

Mrs. Lu was also very surprised when she heard this: "What do you mean by poisoned? Is it the poisonous insect from Miaojiang that is said to have appeared in the legend?"

"Yes." Song Mingyi said, "It is the Gu from Miaojiang. However, the Miaojiang people have always been hiding in the Ten Thousand Mountains and rarely show up. The only one who is active in the secular world is the deputy Gu master of Yaowang Valley."

"I guess the mother of this Gu worm is most likely in Medicine King Valley."

When she heard about Medicine King Valley, Mrs. Lu’s expression changed.

She held Song Mingyi's hand and said, "Can we save the old man without going to Yaowang Valley to get the mother Gu?"

Song Mingyi said: "The simplest way to treat a poisonous insect with the least damage to the body is to find the mother insect and use it as a guide to draw out the baby insects."

"There is another way, which is to use the Mingxin grass as a guide to make a decoction to slowly draw the Gu worm out of the body. However, this method will greatly damage the body, and it can only be used when the Gu worm has just been planted."

"But from what I've observed, Grandpa has been poisoned for at least half a year. The insect has been dormant in Grandpa's body for half a year and has accumulated energy. It's not that easy to draw it out."

Besides, Grandpa’s health is not good. I’m afraid that he won’t be able to hold on before the poisonous insect is drawn out… So the best way is to go to Medicine King Valley to find the mother insect.”

Mrs. Lu's expression changed.

As the mistress of the Lu family, she certainly knew what Medicine King Valley was.

It's hard to go there sincerely to ask for medicine, let alone look for the mother Gu now...

But Mrs. Lu couldn't say that she would not allow Lu Shenxing to go.

After all, this man is her father-in-law and the backbone of the entire Lu family.

When Lu Shenxing was lying on the bed, it was Mr. Lu who tried every possible way to save Lu Shenxing.

Even the fact that Song Mingyi was able to marry into the Lu family was thanks to Mr. Lu.

Lu Shenxing said: "I will go to Yaowang Valley to find the mother Gu tomorrow."

Song Mingyi immediately said: "I'll go with you!"

“No!” Lu Shenxing refused without hesitation: “Medicine King Valley is dangerous, I am worried about you going with me. Besides, I have a mother and two children at home. Even if you stay with grandpa, I need you to stay…”

Song Mingyi shook his head and said, "Shen Xing, I know you are worried about me, but don't forget that my master Ji Qihuang also came from Yaowang Valley. Although he has been driven out, he still has his own connections in Yaowang Valley. It will be much more convenient with me here."

"That won't work either!" Lu Shenxing refused decisively.

Song Mingyi said: "If you don't allow me to go with you, then I will go secretly. You know you can't stop me. Even if you ask mom to watch me, I can't watch you."

Lu Shenxing was particularly helpless: "Be good."

"You should be a good boy!" Song Mingyi said seriously, "Since I married into the Lu family, I have always remembered the kindness that Grandpa has shown me. Now that Grandpa is in trouble, how can you expect me to just stand by and watch?"

Lu Shenxing knew that he could not persuade her, so he could only say: "You can go with me, but when we get to Medicine King Valley, you must listen to me and not act on your own!"

"Okay, I promise you."

"Don't worry, I will protect the Lu family, the old man and the two children!" Suddenly, Mrs. Lu hugged Song Mingyi and Lu Shenxing and said, "Promise me that you must come back safely!"

Song Mingyi hugged Mrs. Lu and said, "Don't worry, Mom, we will definitely come back safely!"

Lu Shenxing didn't say anything, but just hugged the two most important women in his life tightly.
