The sun was setting in a nameless town located at the border between Zhou State and Later Qin.
Although it was already evening, a small medical center in the town was still very busy.
Some of the townspeople were gathered around the counter of the small medical center.
At the counter, a young man dressed in coarse clothes was busy sweating.
"Young Master Gu, the magic medicine you concocted is really useful. Our cat egg drank it several times and was cured."
"That's right. Young Master Gu's medical and magic skills are very powerful, and the price is also cheap."
Several middle-aged women in their thirties and forties surrounded Gufeng and talked about him.
Gufeng came to this town a few months ago.
After saying goodbye to Yun Sheng and Abandon, Gufeng has been looking for a suitable residence on the mainland.
Considering Ling 'er's condition and the Later Qin's pursuit, Gufeng finally chose this small town in Zhou State.
The town was only dozens of miles away from Gufeng's hometown. Gufeng's parents were also old. It was convenient for him to go home and see his parents if he lived in the town.
Gufeng was originally a magician. His light magic treatment was also the best in the mainland's magic elite camp.
In addition, he followed Yun Sheng in his early years and helped in Little Ci Entang for several years, so he also knew some medical skills.
After arriving at the town, Gufeng found that there was no medical center in Little Ci Entang. So, he simply followed Yun Sheng's practice and opened a medical center that could perform both magic treatment and ancient medical treatment.
The medical center was opened for more than half a month, and the business was not very good.
But later, Gufeng occasionally rescued a boy who fainted on the roadside, and his medical skills and character spread in the town.
The town was not big, and there were only a few thousand people. Gufeng soon became familiar with the townspeople here.
The townspeople originally wanted to call him Doctor Gu, but Gufeng was embarrassed to agree. He knew that his medical skills were far from that of his good friend Yun Sheng.
Therefore, the townspeople called him Little Master Gu instead.
As the sky gradually darkened, Gufeng looked at the darkening streets with a troubled expression.
"Young Master Gu, how old are you? I have a distant niece. She's thirteen years old this year. She's very pretty. Do you want her to be your wife? "
A warm-hearted townsfolk came forward, his saliva flying everywhere as he spoke.
Gufeng wasn't ugly, and he was tall and big. He was also simple and honest. He had a good reputation among these middle-aged women.
They saw that Gufeng was not young anymore, but he was still alone. They were all warm-hearted and came to propose marriage.
In the past few months, Gufeng had pushed back at least seven or eight such matters.
"Ahem, Auntie Li, your medicine is ready. It's getting late, so you should go back first." Gu Feng was not good at dealing with this kind of thing. After hurriedly wrapping up the medicine, he prevaricated and asked the woman to leave.
However, the woman still didn't give up and continued to be long-winded.
"Hey, why are you so stubborn? Can't you see that Young Master Gu's wife is here?" At this time, a woman who was still waiting for the medicine couldn't stand it anymore.
People who often came to Gufeng's small medical center knew that Gufeng had a fairy-like wife. However, because of her weak body, she didn't go out all year round.
Gufeng was really good to his wife. Every day, after finishing his work, he hurried home, afraid that his wife would be alone at home and be afraid.
While speaking, Gufeng ran out of the medical center in a panic.
On the street, a woman walked over.
The woman who wanted to propose marriage for Gufeng earlier looked over.
Under the hazy sunset, the woman walked over step by step.
She was dressed very plainly, without makeup, and without a pearl hairpin on her head. However, her appearance was enough to make up for all the shortcomings of her clothes.
These women who were illiterate felt that their brains were about to explode. They couldn't think of a word to describe this woman in front of them.
"Ling 'er, why are you here?" Gufeng went forward and hurriedly took off his coat and put it on Donghuang Ling' er.
It was already autumn. The autumn wind was blowing, and the weather was getting colder.
Ever since Donghuang Ling 'er's magic soul was corroded by the soul snake, her body hadn't been very good. Gufeng was afraid that she would catch a cold.
Compared to when she just left the Eastern Capital, Donghuang Ling 'er's complexion was much better.
Her pale cheeks were already flushed red. Her body was also fuller than before. That pair of empty eyes also had some vitality.
At least, when she saw Gufeng, her eyes became much gentler.
"I've boiled the medicine." Donghuang Ling 'er's voice was soft and gentle.
When Gufeng first took Donghuang Ling 'er away, she was in a daze. Her intelligence was like that of a three-year-old child.
After going through Gu Feng's unremitting treatment, coupled with the spiritual medicines that Yunsheng and Tianyi sent over, although Donghuang Ling 'er still couldn't remember much of the past, she was already able to move around freely and speak.
To make it easier for Gufeng to take care of Donghuang Ling 'er, he told others that Ling' er was his newly wedded wife. Because the two of them encountered bandits on the way, his wife was frightened and needed to rest.
Thus, Donghuang Ling 'er slowly got used to Gufeng's existence.
She might not know what Gufeng meant by 'husband'.
However, she knew that as long as her 'husband' was here, her mood would be very good. If her 'husband' came back late, she would feel uneasy.
Gufeng was busy in the medical center during the day. At night, he still had to help the townspeople boil medicine.
Seeing that Gufeng was working hard day and night, Donghuang Ling 'er clumsily boiled the medicine when he wasn't around. She planned to send it over to Gufeng to give him a surprise.
Gufeng took a look at the medicine bottle. The medicine had already been boiled dry.
It was no wonder. Donghuang Ling 'er was a princess. When in the palace, she had never personally boiled medicine.
But even so, Gufeng was still very happy. His Ling 'er knew how to feel sorry for him.
Seeing the loving appearance of Gufeng and his wife, Donghuang Ling 'er.
Seeing that Gufeng's wife was so beautiful that she didn't look like an ordinary person, those gossipy women who had designs on Gufeng could only leave resentfully.
Seeing that everyone had left, Gufeng pulled Donghuang Ling 'er into the house.
Under the illumination magic formation, Donghuang Ling 'er's white and tender hands had a few blisters. Clearly, they were left behind when she was boiling medicine.
"Next time, when I'm not around, don't touch the fire." Gufeng felt very sorry for Donghuang Ling 'er. He hurriedly chanted light magic to heal her injuries.
Seeing that Donghuang Ling 'er was both distressed and unhappy, a happy smile appeared on Donghuang Ling' er's face.
She liked to see this simple-minded man's anxious and angry look.
"The two of you are in a good mood. It's a pity that we had to look for you." A voice suddenly sounded, causing the warmth in the medical center to disappear.
Outside the medical center, there were already many carriages.
The sun had already set, and the streets of the small town were filled with a chill.
Later Qin's crown prince, Dugu Xiu, brought tens of Blood Iron Guards and surrounded this small medical center.
Beside him was the charming Madam Chi Bi.
