Love That Extends Life

The old shopkeeper Li Baolin came to Chu Yunhao and pulled Chu Yunhao to sit down.

"Young man, you're welcome. Sit down and talk!"

"Grandpa Li, I didn't expect to meet you here!"

"Haha, this is called destined to meet each other even though they are thousands of miles apart! Right!"

Seeing that her grandfather was in good spirits, Li Wan'er sat down next to him.

The old shopkeeper Li Baolin held Chu Yunhao's hand, and his right hand was on Chu Yunhao's wrist.

After a while, the old shopkeeper Li Baolin nodded and said, "From your pulse, it seems that your body has been adjusted by a master, and your condition has been alleviated."

Chu Yunhao just nodded, because Wu Yanzi told him not to tell anyone about his medical treatment, so he remained silent.

"Young man, this is a blessing! Actually, as a doctor, I was ashamed to leave Kyoto. This is also a pain for me. But now that I see you, I am very happy. Maybe different paths lead to the same destination. Doctors are like parents. Haha, it happens that this Baicaotang is opened by me. Since the young man has the fate to come here, I am willing to make a bet with the young man. I wonder if the young man is interested?"

Chu Yunhao listened to the old shopkeeper's words, but he didn't understand the old shopkeeper's bet, so he smiled and asked: "Grandpa Li, what is the bet?"

"Young man, my bet is the Chinese medicinal herbs you choose. As long as they are the Chinese medicinal herbs you choose, I will give them to you for free without hesitation to use for medical treatment. When your body is fully recovered in the future, you can pay me the money then! This is the bet between you and me!" Li Baolin made the bet.

"Grandpa Li, if that's the case, what if my body never recovers? Doesn't that mean I won't have to pay you forever?"

"That's right! This is the bet between us!" said the old shopkeeper Li Baolin without hesitation.

"But, Grandpa Li, if you consider it only from the monetary aspect, I always feel that this bet is actually between you and yourself, and it doesn't seem to have much to do with me. After all, it is normal for me to spend money on buying medicine when I am sick." Chu Yunhao responded.

The old shopkeeper Li Baolin was happy, and then stroked his beard and said, "Haha! However, the angle of the bet is different, so the result will be different. If you look at this matter from the perspective of physical health, then it is closely related to you. I want to win your physical health, and you also have to win your physical health. I hope there will be no losers in this win-win bet! In fact, since I decided to leave Kyoto, every time I think of this matter, it has become a worry for me, so I also want to get rid of one of my worries! Young man, do you understand?"

Chu Yunhao thought about it and felt that everything the old shopkeeper Li Baolin said made sense. From the perspective of a doctor's heart, a doctor does hope that his patients will recover soon, so he would definitely agree to such a bet readily.

"Grandpa Li, I am willing to make this bet with you!"

"Okay! That's settled then!"

"Grandpa, what's going on?" Li Wan'er became more and more confused as she listened. She didn't know why her grandfather would set up the bet.

"Wan'er, remember I told you that I went to Kyoto to treat a young man, but I returned without success. That young man is the young man now!" The old shopkeeper Li Baolin briefly explained to his granddaughter.

"Oh! It's him! Grandpa, I understand."

Li Wan'er finally understood the reason for the bet. It turned out that the young man in front of her was the Kyoto man that her grandfather had failed to save. This time, her grandfather was competing with him, so they made the bet.

Gambling requires luck, but sometimes gambling can also bring good luck, just like this bet, if Chu Yunhao's hidden illness is cured, it will be a win-win result. Money is often not the best bet, and the relationship of gratitude in a win-win situation is the most important, which is also what the upper class people value most.

The terms of the bet were very simple. Chu Yunhao just had to leave his cell phone number and Baicaotang would contact him later.

Chu Yunhao was very lucky. When he came to Baicaotang, he took away 66 kinds of Chinese medicinal herbs for free. The other eight kinds of precious Chinese medicinal herbs needed for nourishing and strengthening the body in the later stage were also left for Baicaotang to find a way to solve.

Sometimes, especially precious medicinal materials can only be obtained at medicinal material auctions, such as the pure Tianshan Snow Lotus, the hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum, the hundred-year-old Tridacna, and the hundred-year-old Tai Sui. It seems that Chu Yunhao does not need to worry about these, he only needs to go to Baicaotang to get them at the agreed time.

Chu Yunhao walked out of Baicaotang carrying two large packaging bags. He was very happy as he took away these Chinese medicinal materials without spending any money.

"Wan'er, that young man is no simple man. It would be your blessing if you could get along with him!" The old shopkeeper Li Baolin lowered his voice and whispered in the ear of his granddaughter Li Wan'er.

"Grandpa, Wan'er doesn't want to have a boyfriend yet..." Li Wan'er started to act coquettishly and complained to her grandfather in a coquettish manner.

"Haha, my precious granddaughter, you won't go wrong if you listen to grandpa. Oh, by the way, that young man must have met the descendant of a traditional Chinese medicine family with superb medical skills. We can find the descendant of the traditional Chinese medicine family through that young man. I believe you will understand all this, so grandpa will give this task to you, and it's up to you to do it next."

Li Wan'er nodded obediently, indicating that she understood what her grandfather meant. Then, she walked out of Baicao Hall lightly and followed Chu Yunhao quietly.

Li Wan'er followed Chu Yunhao secretly, but there was someone following her from behind.

Chu Yunhao walked fifty meters and put down the two heavy bags in his hands. He was still fifty meters away from the bus stop, and he was thinking about it.

"It's not very convenient to carry these two large bags of herbs on the bus. Besides, I can't carry them all. I might as well take a taxi. Well, not spending money on herbs means I save a lot of money. As for paying it back in the future, that's a matter for the future."

Chu Yunhao thought about this and came to the side of the road, staring at the passing vehicles. After three taxis passed by, an empty taxi finally approached slowly.

Chu Yunhao was delighted and quickly waved his hand. The taxi driver saw his action, slowed down slowly, pulled over to the roadside and stopped in front of Chu Yunhao.

Chu Yunhao did not sit in the passenger seat. He chose the back seat with his things in his hands, so he opened the back door and sat in the back.

"Where are you going?" the driver turned around and asked.

"Let's go..." Chu Yunhao originally wanted to go to the Confucius Temple Night Market, but when he saw the two large bags of herbs at his feet, he changed his mind. "Let's go to the shanty town in the urban village!"

"Ok!"

After the taxi driver learned the destination, he drove the taxi quickly into the traffic.

Chu Yunhao gradually relaxed as he sat in the car. Now he didn't have to walk such a long distance.

Ten minutes later, the taxi stopped at the location designated by Chu Yunhao.

Chu Yunhao opened the car door and got out of the car picking up the plastic bag.

"Thank you, Master!" Chu Yunhao said politely and closed the back door of the taxi.

"You're welcome!" the taxi driver replied, and the taxi started and left.
