Alert! Miracle doctor released from prison

"Does that include the Luo family?"

After a moment of silence, Chen Huo asked.

Luo Yunxi is, after all, a member of the Luo family, so asking such a question is a bit impolite.

But Chen Huozhen really wanted to know.

He stared intently at Luo Yunxi's face.

If Luo Yunxi is lying, he can tell from the changes in his micro-expressions.

"have no idea."

Luo Yunxi shook his head, looking very honest.

Chen Huo did not see any sign that he was lying.

Then he asked the question that concerned him most:

"Where is the Goddess Pavilion?"

Previously, he focused solely on cultivating martial arts and medical skills at the Goddess Pavilion. After achieving mastery, he traveled the world carrying out various missions and gaining experience, without participating in internal affairs.

Later, when he became the young master of the pavilion, he found it too troublesome and didn't care about the affairs of the Goddess Pavilion at all. Therefore, he was unaware of the major decisions of the Goddess Pavilion, which made him somewhat worried.

"I don't know... but I think it's very unlikely that the Goddess Pavilion is colluding with external forces," Luo Yunxi said after thinking for a moment.

Chen Huo immediately became interested: "Why do you say that?"

"Because the Goddess Pavilion has no ambition. Hasn't your Goddess Pavilion always focused on defense and self-preservation, a group of women sticking together for warmth? Other ancient martial arts families have agents who can influence the secular economic lifeline, but your Goddess Pavilion is the only one without."

Luo Yunxi said in a very serious tone.

Chen Huo nodded secretly upon hearing this.

From this perspective, the Goddess Pavilion indeed has no possibility of colluding with external forces.

At this moment, Yu Ji, who had been silent for a long time, spoke up.

"Don't worry, young master. I'm in charge of various miscellaneous tasks in the Goddess Pavilion, so I'm quite familiar with the internal situation. Neither the pavilion master nor any of the elders would do such a thing."

Gu Yingxue chimed in, "I think so too. If the Goddess Pavilion had really done something like that, why would Yuan Gang go to such lengths to recruit you? He'd be too busy keeping an eye on you."

Gu Yingxue's words were the most convincing.

Chen Huo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that it has nothing to do with the Goddess Pavilion.

Master must know about this; we'll ask him after he comes out of seclusion.

"Take good care of yourself and get well soon."

Chen Huo gave him a word of advice and prepared to leave.

Gu Yingxue quickly asked, "Dr. Chen, is there any medicine that can help my brother recover quickly? There are too many people and too many strange things in the hospital. I'm afraid something else might happen."

Chen Huo shook his head: "If your brother had met me a hundred years ago, I would have cured him immediately. But not now. Many medicinal herbs have disappeared. He can only rest and recuperate."

A hundred years ago, the population was much smaller than it is now, natural resources were not overexploited, pollution was virtually nonexistent, and many medicinal herbs had room to grow.

It's different now.

What were not considered precious medicinal herbs a hundred years ago are now almost treasures. Many effective remedies, even if they have not been lost, are now difficult to find the necessary ingredients for.

There was nothing that Chen Huo could do about this.

of course.

There is another reason.

He couldn't possibly devote much energy to finding medicine for Luo Yunxi; saving his life was already a good thing. Whether the recovery time was fast or slow was not something he needed to consider.

Gu Yingxue sighed softly upon hearing this, her face full of disappointment.

Luo Yunxi, however, was quite open-minded, chuckling lightly as he said:

"Yingxue, there's no need to rush things. Take it slow. I'm already very grateful to have saved your life. Don't cause any more trouble for Doctor Chen."

"Okay, bro."

Chen Huo took his leave.

Since there wasn't much in the hotel, Yu Ji made a phone call to check out and then headed towards the villa that Su Wanqiu had prepared for them. On the way, Chen Huo instructed her to have the people from the Goddess Pavilion bring the alchemy furnace over there.

The medicinal herbs provided by Liu Guocheng are no longer usable.

Chen Huo has already asked the people from the Goddess Pavilion to prepare another set, which will be delivered soon. He can't leave Jinzhou for the time being, so the villa provided by Su Wanqiu can be used for alchemy.

As a prominent figure in Jinzhou, Su Wanqiu's newly purchased villa was naturally of a high standard, and the security was quite good. Chen Huo and his group's car was stopped at the gate because it was not registered.

The security guard at the gate was a burly man, probably around thirty years old.

With a resolute face, a buzz cut, and a ramrod-straight back, he was clearly a veteran, and probably recently retired. This kind of demeanor forged during his military service will inevitably fade with time.

After I explained the situation, the security guard said he needed to register it.

We also need to call the homeowner, Su Wanqiu, to verify.

This kind of high-end villa area is not accessible to just anyone or any car.

Yu Ji and Chen Huo did not make things difficult for him and cooperated very well.

Just then.

A Dodge Hellcat followed behind. Seeing Chen Huo's car blocking the entrance, it honked twice, and then two middle-aged men got out of the car.

These two people have very ordinary looks and dress very casually. They are the kind of ordinary people who would pass by on the street and not leave any impression on passersby.

The only thing that stood out was their expensive car.

That does fit the identity of someone who lives in this villa area.

"Hey, what's going on here? What are you doing blocking the way?"

"You can't stop at the entrance, move over and let us in."

As they spoke, the two men walked toward Chen Huo's car, their faces showing some impatience.

At this moment, Chen Huo was sitting in the passenger seat.

Yu Ji was outside the car, negotiating with the security guard.

"I'm sorry, I'll move it right away. Please move your car back a little, and I'll back it up and park on the side of the road to make room for you," Yu Ji said politely, after all, they had indeed caused inconvenience.

Just then.

One of them pulled a dark, cylindrical object from his pocket and threw it through the open passenger window, where Chen Huo was sitting.

Yu Ji immediately realized something was wrong.

"Young Master, be careful!"

Chen Huo, sitting in the passenger seat, had a completely calm expression.

Following the Dodge Challenger, when the driver and passenger got out of the car, Chen Huo secretly observed the two men through the rearview mirror, because they both acted somewhat strangely.

Normally, when encountering a situation where the road ahead is blocked, one would first honk the horn to warn the other party, and only after a while, if there is still no response, would one get out of the car to check the situation.

Why would someone immediately get off the bus and rush someone?

And the two of them came down at the same time.

Therefore, Chen Huo had long been on guard.

The cylindrical object that the man threw was none other than a hand grenade. If it were thrown into the passenger seat and detonated, even if Chen Huo was a second-level Emperor Realm expert, he would be seriously injured.

Being injured will inevitably give the opponent an opportunity to kill you.

To Chen Huo's surprise, the security guard in charge of registration and inquiry discovered it was a hand grenade in such a short time and immediately shouted:

"Shoot it!"

There is a delay in the explosion of a grenade; if you wait until it falls into the carriage, pick it up, and then throw it out, there certainly won't be enough time.

Only by knocking it away can one possibly save their life.
