What bad thoughts could a genius doctor have?

Chapter 197 Provocation
Shi Zhou replied respectfully: "Master, it's not that Yu Yan doesn't want you to touch the Gu worm, but Yu Yan has his own reasons."

The ghost doctor's eyes were cold and gloomy: "Difficulties? Tell me about it. I want to see what your difficulties are!"

Shi Zhou immediately knelt down in front of the ghost doctor and said, "Master, Yu Yan has been trapped in the palace for a long time because the emperor also wants this pair of mother and child Gu!"

The ghost doctor raised his eyes: "What? The emperor also wants the mother-child Gu? Why?"

Shi Zhou: "Master, you don't know. The emperor in this palace is old, but he is unwilling to give up his wealth and glory, so he has been seeking immortality but has never achieved it. I don't know when the emperor has seen someone with a similar face to Yu Yan. By chance, Yu Yan met the emperor in the palace. He believed that Yu Yan was the immortal he had seen many years ago, and that Yu Yan's appearance has not faded for many years, and he is an immortal immortal."

The ghost doctor sneered, "So the emperor trapped you here and forced you to make the elixir of immortality?"

Shi Zhou nodded, "That's right. The emperor has been pursuing the elixir for many years and is a cautious and suspicious person. No matter how Yu Yan denied it, the emperor would not give up easily. Yu Yan had no choice but to tell him about the Zhizimu Gu for the sake of Senior Brother Yu Ze and to save his life."

Shi Zhou: "It's just that Yu Yan was trapped in the palace and couldn't contact the master, so he could only wait passively. A few days ago, the master's letter crow found this place, and Yu Yan finally contacted the master. Everything Yu Yan said is true, please understand, master!"

The ghost doctor looked Shi Zhou up and down and said coldly: "Whether what you said is true or false, I will make my own judgment. But what does this have to do with whether you can touch the Gu worm?"

Shi Zhou looked up at the ghost doctor: "The emperor asked about the progress of the Gu worm, and Yu Yan could only say that he would feed the Gu with blood. The emperor of this mortal world is of noble status and is the most powerful person in the world. He would never let the emperor's body be damaged. As a result, the emperor is willing to draw blood from his heart to feed the Gu worm..."

The ghost doctor's eyes flashed, and he raised his hand to knock Shi Zhou to the ground: "How dare you! You actually fed the poisonous insect raised for Yu Ze with someone else's blood. Do you want to kill Yu Ze?"

Shi Zhou slowly got up from the ground, "Master, please calm down. Yu Yan naturally favors Senior Brother Yu Ze, so..."

Shi Zhou said, kneeling in front of the medicine box and taking out a thin tube of blood. "The emperor's blood has been saved. Yu Yan dare not do anything that is detrimental to Senior Brother Yu Ze. However, this matter is very serious, and the emperor is an extremely cautious person. I don't know how long Yu Yan can deceive..."

The ghost doctor's expression eased a little after hearing this: "It seems that you still have your Senior Brother Yuze in your heart. It's no wonder that he loved you so much back then. How can the emperor tell whose blood the poisonous insect sucked?"

Shi Zhou lowered his head and said, "The Gu worm will recognize whoever's blood it sucks as its master. If Master had touched the Gu worm just now, I'm afraid the Gu worm would suck Master's blood like crazy and recognize Master as its master. Yu Yan is worried that if the emperor wants to see the Gu worm one day, he will be rejected by the Gu worm, and then he will naturally be exposed..."

"Yu Yan's death is not a pity, but as long as the poisonous insect is not fully developed, Yu Yan cannot die..." Shi Zhou paused, "Yu Yan has heard that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. The emperor has an unpredictable personality. Yu Yan really doesn't know how long he can hold on."

The ghost doctor stared at Shi Zhou with a cold expression, "In that case, I will just kill this old emperor. There are countless people who want to be emperor in this world. If he dies, someone else will take over. You and I will go back to the wizard and concentrate on raising Gu."

Shi Zhou raised his head and said, "Master, you don't know that the emperor of this mortal world cannot die. When the emperor is assassinated, Yu Yan, who is valued by the emperor and made the elixir for him, will be the first to be beheaded. If people knew that Master is from Wushan, when the time comes, the emperor's heir will take the throne and the first thing he will do is to avenge his father. There will be no more Wushan in this world!"

The ghost doctor frowned and said nothing.

The ghost doctor has lived in Wushan for a long time and only traveled among the people. Naturally, he didn't know that many secular rules in this world are different from the rules in the palace.

Ghost Doctor: "So, the emperor cannot be touched?"

Shi Zhou said with certainty: "The emperor cannot be touched."

Ghost Doctor: "Then how should the emperor die normally?"

Shi Zhou: "Birth, old age, sickness and death, and the successor to the throne will be killed by his own hands. The history books will be written by the new emperor, so that the world can be kept in the dark."

Ghost Doctor: "The successor?"

Shi Zhou nodded: "I have read history books and know that in addition to his sons and brothers, the emperor's wife is also the one who inherits the throne. In history, there was a woman named Wu who deposed the emperor and succeeded to the throne. She became the most powerful woman in the world and left a legend in history books for future generations to pass on."

The ghost doctor looked at Shi Zhou and said, "Master, this is the first time I have heard of what the most powerful person in the world can do."

Shi Zhou: "Do whatever you want to do in the world, and no one dares to disobey."

The ghost doctor raised his lips slightly: "Hearing what you said, I am a little curious about how carefree the position of the emperor is."

Shi Zhou: "Master, are you happy in Wushan?"

The ghost doctor said: "That's natural."

In Wushan, the Ghost Doctor is the most honorable person and all the disciples obey her orders.

Shi Zhou: "Being an emperor is a hundred times, a thousand times more enjoyable than when Master was in Wushan. Wushan is unknown, but being an emperor is a wealth known to all. Every time a dynasty changes, people fight for the throne, and relatives turn against each other. Everyone wants to sit on the throne and become the most precious person in the world."

The ghost doctor's fingers moved, "Hearing what you said, I am even more curious about the position of the emperor." Shi Zhou: "Master, Yu Yan is in trouble now, and I don't know how long he can hold on. If you can take Yu Yan away from here without leaving any trouble, Yu Yan will serve you wholeheartedly in the future. Try your best to wake up Senior Brother Yu Ze. Yu Yan begs you to save Yu Yan."

Ghost Doctor: "Just wait, I will not abandon you here. Being threatened by the emperor is just the dying struggle of a dying man!"

There were footsteps outside the door. Shi Zhou quickly made a gesture to silence the ghost doctor. The maid outside the door asked, "Miss Shi, what do you want?"

Shi Zhou: "I just woke up and talked in my sleep. It's nothing. Please leave."

The maid responded and then left.

The ghost doctor lowered his voice and said, "You are quite powerful here. If there is any disturbance, someone will come to inquire. I guess the emperor must be living a carefree life."

Shi Zhou: "That's natural."

The ghost doctor didn't stay long. After confirming Shi Zhou's location, he left quickly.

A few days later, Emperor Jianxing came again and saw Shi Zhou holding a crow in his hand. Emperor Jianxing was surprised: "There is such an ominous thing here?"

Shi Zhou: "Your Majesty, this is not an ominous object, this is the messenger crow raised by my master."

Emperor Jianxing was stunned: "Who is your master?"

Shi Zhou immediately responded, "My master is the ghost doctor of Wushan, named Futu. She is a woman who looks like a fairy. She has many disciples and is well-known among the people. If people in the world encounter difficult and complicated diseases, if the ghost doctor Futu says that it cannot be cured, then it must be incurable."

Emperor Jianxing said: "It turns out that your master is well-known. No wonder your medical skills are praised by the imperial doctors in the palace. With such skills, your master must be even more extraordinary."

Shi Zhou said: "When I met my master in my childhood, she was as beautiful as a fairy and had a graceful figure. She was the most beautiful person in the world. She traveled all over the world with her medical skills. She was indeed extraordinary."

Emperor Jianxing was curious: "Oh? You were a child? What does your master look like now?

Shi Zhou: "My master has the ability to maintain his beauty. His appearance has not changed over the years. He is still stunningly beautiful. Wherever he goes, people regard him as an immortal. She has no choice but to cover her face and not show her true appearance to others."

Emperor Jianxing laughed and said, "The women in my harem are all carefully selected beauties. How beautiful can your stunning master be? And she is old."

Shi Zhou was silent for a while before he said, "Your Majesty has determined that I am an immortal from the Immortal Mountain, so my master must also be from the Immortal Mountain."

Emperor Jianxing was stunned when he heard this. "You mean your master is from the Immortal Mountain like you, and is an immortal immortal?"

Shi Zhou: "If Your Majesty believes that I came from the Immortal Mountain, then my master must be from the Immortal Mountain."

Emperor Jianxing was a little excited: "So your master's appearance now is exactly the same as the one you saw when you were a child?"

Shi Zhou nodded: "Your Majesty, in my eyes, Master has always been beautiful."

Emperor Jianxing asked again: "Where is your master now? Is it the fairy mountain you mentioned? Where is the fairy mountain?"

Shi Zhou: "Your Majesty, Master is now practicing medicine. A crow just sent a letter and I learned that Master is at an inn ten miles outside the capital. Master originally wanted to come to the capital to see me, but now I am making medicine for Your Majesty and cannot go. I am planning to write back to Master and beg for his forgiveness."

Emperor Jianxing pondered for a moment, "The people of the Immortal Mountain are all young and beautiful. I am really curious about how beautiful your master is. Shi Zhou, I order you to write back to your master and arrange a date for the meeting. I want to meet this immortal from the Immortal Mountain in person!"

To Emperor Jianxing, Shi Zhou's master must have better medical skills than Shi Zhou himself. If Shi Zhou's master could make the elixir of immortality himself, wouldn't he be able to do it more easily than his disciple Shi Zhou?
In Emperor Jianxing's mind, seeing this beautiful immortal was fake, and witnessing with his own eyes that there were other immortals in the world was real.

He has been seeking immortality for many years. If he could meet the master and disciple in the same year, then his path to immortality would not be far away.

When Shi Zhou heard what he said, he immediately knelt on the ground and begged Emperor Jianxing to give up the trip. "Your Majesty is worth a fortune. I dare not let Your Majesty take risks because of a word I said carelessly. I beg Your Majesty to give up this trip."

Of course Emperor Jianxing refused. What had he been seeking for all these years? He was seeking immortality.

In order to see the immortal, he would not hesitate to leave the temple, or even go to find the immortal mountain in person!

Emperor Jianxing said angrily, "How dare you! Do I need your advice on how to act?"
