Chapter 167 Asking for sick leave

Xinglin Pharmacy...

Du He was carefully wiping the high-necked vase with copper enamel, but he was actually secretly observing the direction of the lobby.

He just couldn't understand how an apprentice from a martial arts gym with the same strength as him could make such rapid progress and suddenly break through to the middle stage of Qi and Blood?
He was shocked but also a little wary. Could it be that this guy was relying on his improved strength to take over his young master?
It's worth it!

Zhou You sat upright with his wrist resting on the cushion, revealing his slightly beating pulse.

Three jade-like slender fingertips are pressed on the wrist, the nails are as transparent as jade and as exquisite as a work of art.

This time when he went to seek medical treatment, it was Hua Youxing, the head of the clinic, who diagnosed him.

Hua Youxing frowned slightly, her clear eyes full of thought.

There was a faint medicinal fragrance on her breath, which made her feel calm and her mind clear of all distracting thoughts.

After a moment, she withdrew her hand from taking the pulse and let out a long breath.

"Excuse my shallow knowledge, I really can't see what hidden dangers you have?"

Zhou You immediately covered his forehead after hearing this, "Ever since Zhong Shaoying kicked me, I've had a headache day and night, it's drilling into my brain and marrow."

"Young Master, can't you help me think of another solution?"

Hua Youxing said seriously, "The Six Suns are exquisite and complex, and only a national master can study their essence in detail."

"Master Zhou, there's really nothing you can do about Ariyoshi."

When Zhou You heard Doctor Hua's name, he was filled with respect.

He had just found out that Dr. Hua, who saved lives with his medicine, was not only the president of the local medical guild, but also a hidden master with the strength of a martial artist.

No wonder Hua Youxing was not panicked at all when the flower thieves were wreaking havoc in the city, because he had this master at home.

There is nothing wrong with his body. He came here for another purpose.

"Just because the young master can't see the cause of my illness doesn't mean I'm fine."

"Well, write me a note so I can ask for sick leave from Master."

Hua Youxing took a breath and said, "Oh my god, so this is the reason why you came here today."

She had heard about Zhou You beating Zhong Shaoying to death, and knew that she had underestimated his ability and ruthlessness before.

In fact, many people only realized how powerful Zhou You was after learning about this.

Winged tiger, winged tiger, it is first a man-eating tiger, and it becomes more powerful when it has wings.

The dispute among the inner courtyard disciples of Jianxiong Martial Arts School ended with Zhou You killing Zhong Shaoying, and the situation took a 180-degree turn.

The local faction lost its support, Lu Jianqing was alone and his arrogance was cut short.

If it weren't for the protection of his master, Zhou You would not be able to go any further. Even he would have to go to the ring and die miserably.

Although Zhou You retired at the height of his career and stayed at home under the pretext of recuperating from illness, everyone in the martial arts school was in awe of him.

In terms of reputation among the apprentices, Zhou You is recognized as the best after the eldest senior brother.

"..."

Hua Youxing looked at Zhou You with her beautiful eyes. The other party was in a fierce situation, but he deliberately avoided the internal disputes of the martial arts hall.

What is the purpose of recuperating at home? Should I help him?
She suddenly realized that the young man sitting in front of her was already one of the few young talents in the city, rather than just a passer-by among the crowd.

By the way, Zhou You seems to meet 90% of her father’s strict requirements for her husband.

Thinking of this, her cheeks turned slightly red, and a blush appeared on her face.

Why are you still blushing?

Zhou You felt strange and continued, "Young Master, I have a brain injury. Just because I can't find out what's wrong doesn't mean it doesn't exist."

"It will take at least a year or so to recover. Please help me!"

Hua Youxing smiled softly, and her smile made the whole room brighter.

"Master Zhou, let me tell you a secret."

"My father was born in the Yaowang School, which is not only good at planting and refining medicine, but also has advantages in curing diseases and saving lives." "He inserted silk into the body with one hand, condensed the blood and qi into fine threads, drilled into the pores, and explored the lesions between the gaps in the flesh and blood, leaving no scars and revealing every detail."

"With his martial arts master's power control skills, he will surely be able to help you find the hidden danger."

Hua Youxing said earnestly, "You are still young. If a minor injury is delayed for too long, it can easily lead to a major disaster. You must not be careless!"

Oops, she got the better of me.

Zhou You thought that asking the young master to endorse his sick leave was not that easy.

With the temper of the other woman, she wants everything to be under control, so it is impossible for her to just give him a sick note.

"To be honest, after killing Zhong Shaoying, I can't stay in the clinic for the time being."

"Lu Jianqing holds grudges, and friction will arise if we get along for a long time. He has a bright future, and the master will definitely favor him, so I have to find an excuse to leave the martial arts hall for a while."

Hua Youxing listened to his explanation and nodded, "Yes, you are now in the middle stage of Qi and Blood, you can practice at home on your own."

"Also, there have been a lot of demons causing trouble in the city recently, so I want to stay home more to protect my parents."

Hua Youxing's expression changed, and she looked at Zhou You in surprise. He was so powerful, so calm, and he still cared about his family!

After a moment, Hua Youxing put down the ink pen and blew the ink off the paper, "Here!"

Zhou You took the note and bowed to him in thanks, "Thank you, Young Master."

When I wanted to pay the medical fee, Hua Youxing refused to take it and kept pushing it back and forth for several rounds.

Du He interrupted, "My young master doesn't sit in the hall anyway. He is helping out of kindness. It would be wrong for you to give him money."

I see……

Zhou You took out a seal stone, which was waxy yellow and transparent in texture, with five sides naturally shaped, and the sixth side chiseled flat and carved with the four words "The Elephant Is Formless" inscribed in negative script.

"Frozen wax stone!"

Hua Youxing picked up the seal stone and couldn't let it go. He looked at the seal characters on the stone and couldn't help but praise it, "What a good seal character! The craftsmanship of these few cuts is worth 200 taels of silver."

Those who collect seals know that their value lies in both workmanship and materials.

This seal is obviously made of fine material. The frozen wax stone is not valuable, but the seal script engraved on it is extraordinary, with the style of a famous calligrapher.

"Thank you for the compliment from the young master. This is my practice work. It's not worth much. I'll give it to you if you like it."

Hua Youxing was shocked, "You carved it?"

When she heard Zhou You learn seal script from Master Zeng, she praised him highly, saying, "I think these characters clearly have Master Zeng's style."

She loved the seal stone so much that she accepted it without hesitation.

When seeing Zhou You off, Hua Youxing said, "Come often when you have time."

Zhou You smiled and said jokingly, "Young Master, this is not a good thing!"

Her family runs a clinic. Most normal people would rather not visit them in their lifetime, so there is no reason for them to come here often.

Realizing that he had made a mistake, Hua Youxing bowed slightly and said, "Master Zhou is a friend. He is here to have tea with me. I want to ask you about the techniques of stone carving."

Du He covered his chest and leaned against the doorpost like a dead man. He felt that something was wrong.

The young lady was arrogant and proud. When had she ever been so kind to a man of the same age? Could it be...

Zhou You took the note issued by Xinglin Pharmacy and asked his master for sick leave, and Wang Laohu decisively approved it.

“How long please?”

"Please apply for half a year first. If it's not enough, we can extend it later!"

"OK!"

When Zhou Zhouyou left the martial arts hall, he heard something. After Zhong Shaoying died, his master "permitted" his family to take the body back to the countryside for burial, and they no longer needed to serve the eldest lady.

When a person dies, the tea is forgotten. How quickly they change their attitude!

Without Zhong Shaoying's protection and being kicked out of the martial arts school, the future of this family is in jeopardy.
