He knew Teacher Lin's temper, especially his severe bad temper when waking up, which was like a volcano that could erupt at any time.

Normally, everyone is very careful when Teacher Lin is sleeping. This is the first time he has seen someone do something like Zhang Xianhuai.

There was some fear in his eyes, but also some curiosity. He didn't know what could have happened that could make this famous senior so desperate.

Zhang Xianhuai knocked hard on the door, but there was no response from inside. He was extremely anxious, looked around, gritted his teeth, and directly used his body to hit the door of Lin Dafu's bedroom.

Once, twice, each impact was accompanied by a dull sound, and the "bang bang" sound of his body colliding with the door seemed particularly abrupt in this silent environment.

After a while of banging, the door suddenly opened and Lin Dafu appeared at the door with an angry face.

Zhang Xianhuai didn't hold his ground steady and rushed straight in. Due to the huge inertia, he fell to the floor of Lin Dafu's bedroom.

The fall was quite severe. He felt a sharp pain in his arm and couldn't help but let out a hiss.

He rubbed his arm that was pressed down with some pain, raised his head, looked at Lin Dafu's face full of anger, and forced a smile awkwardly.

"Teacher Lin, I'm here to see you."

He tried to ease the tense atmosphere with a relaxed tone, but that smile looked a little funny to Lin Dafu.

Hearing what Zhang Xianhuai said, Lin Dafu calmed down a little.

His fat face trembled like ripples on the lake.

He raised an eyebrow at Zhang Xianhuai, his tone tinged with sarcasm: "Haha, boy, are you getting more and more daring now? You even dare to lie to your teacher, me? You think you're so great just because you became an official in Chang'an?"

His voice was deep and rich, and every word was filled with dissatisfaction. "Still coming to see me? Not only did you not mention the things, but you were so anxious that you banged on my bedroom door early in the morning."

Lin Dafu grew angrier as he spoke, his fat body trembling slightly with anger. "Have you forgotten that I don't like to wear clothes when I sleep? I don't need time to get dressed?"

His eyes widened, as if they were about to spit fire. "If you don't explain the reason today, forget about leaving Qianyu Chamber of Commerce."

Zhang Xianhuai felt relieved after hearing Lin Dafu say so much, knowing that the teacher's anger had subsided a little.

He stood up, took two steps at a time and came to Lin Dafu's side, warmly hugged his fat arm, and said with a smile: "Teacher Lin, I am your proud disciple who was trained by you! If there is anything, the disciple must come to the master, right?"

His eyes were full of flattery, hoping to make the teacher feel better.

Lin Dafu's expression brightened slightly. He snorted and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Teacher, there was an emergency report from Guzhou last night. The situation was truly dire!"

Zhang Xianhuai's expression became serious, his eyes full of worry.

"Dysentery is rampant. The entire city of Guzhou has fallen, and countless people have died. I heard the scene was horrific. And we still don't know how many places the disease has spread to!"

As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Lin Dafu.

"Your Majesty told you to quickly buy as much Coptis chinensis as possible. It's the main remedy for this disease. Teacher, here's the prescription. Take a look at the other herbs, if you have any. But Coptis chinensis is the most important. It can even be used alone to treat the disease!"

Listening to Zhang Xianhuai's words, Lin Dafu glared at him and said angrily, "You idiot, why didn't you say so earlier?"

Zhang Xianhuai sighed helplessly, smiled bitterly and said, "I'm just worried that you're stingy and unwilling to give it to me, Teacher!"

He knew that the teacher was famous for his frugality in the Chamber of Commerce, and sometimes even seemed a little stingy, so he had such concerns.
