Su Liu shook his head, ignored the two funny guys, turned around and said a few words to Susu.

"You are in charge here. Remember to keep an eye on Jiaojiao and don't let her go too far."

After that, under the desperate gazes of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, Su Liu strode out of the medicine garden, leaving behind only a carefree figure.

Chapter 711 The future female doctor’s first practice of medicine!

Since that night, the nightmare of brothers Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling began.

Although Susu received the Yuhua Medical Classics and many medical skills from Su Liu, medicine, like martial arts, is not something that can be achieved overnight.

One must work hard to achieve the desired level of skill before one can truly become a master.

The current Susu is obviously just a half-baked person who has just got started, and there is also the little witch Zhai Jiao around to cause trouble.

There’s no way Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling could have an easy life!

Ever since Susu took over, screams and wails from the brothers Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling could be heard from the medicine garden in the backyard from time to time.

"Ahhh, Sister Susu, is there something wrong with the medicinal bath you prepared? Why is my wound getting more and more painful?"

"Ouch, something's wrong! Zhong Shao, why is my body so itchy?"

And every time this happened, Susu would always slap her forehead and say with a guilty look:

"Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to put one herb in when I was refining the safflower..."

Although Susu's medical skills were not very good, she was meticulous and gentle, and she didn't make many mistakes. However, Zhai Jiao, her helper, kept making trouble.

"Ahhh, you little bitch, how did you boil the water? It's so hot, are you trying to remove the pig hair?"

Kou Zhong was burned all over and yelled at Zhai Jiao angrily.

But Zhai Jiao just laughed and pretended to be embarrassed and apologized:

"Oh, I'm so sorry. I burned the fire a little too brightly just now. But it doesn't matter. The hotter the water, the faster the medicinal properties will evaporate. That's what Sister Susu said!"

Hearing this, Xu Ziling couldn't help but feel helpless and couldn't help but complain:

"The drug's effects do take effect quickly, but my brother and I are about to be cooked..."

Su Su, who was standing by, frowned slightly when she saw this, and quickly instructed Zhai Jiao:

"Jiaojiao, stop making trouble, and give them both some cold water!"

Zhai Jiao still listens to Susu's words.

"Hehe, don't worry, Sister Jiaojiao, they are both thick-skinned and tough, just cook them for a little longer, they will be fine!"

Having said that, she still obediently scooped up a scoop of cold water and poured it into Shuanglong's wooden barrel.

Seeing this, Susu couldn't help but shook her head and began to open the medical notes in her hand, carefully studying some experiences in medical skills.

In this way, under the arrangement of Su Liu, the unscrupulous master, the brothers Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were extremely honored to become the material for Su Su to learn medical skills, and they were also the first pair of patients she personally treated.

Although the treatment process was somewhat tragic, Susu was able to receive Su Liu's true teachings after all. Although Shuanglong's life was miserable, his body was recovering rapidly.

During this period of time, Su Liu was immersed in the contemplation of the secret of immortality.

This magical skill is truly worthy of being called one of the four great books of the time. The principles of qi training explained therein are extremely mysterious.

Even someone as skilled in martial arts as Su Liu realized many things that he had never paid attention to before, and became more and more proficient in practicing qigong, maintaining health, and cultivating the body and mind.

Another unexpected surprise was that during these days of practicing the Art of Immortality, Su Liu had completely cleansed the murderous aura that he had been infected with in the palace some time ago, making him gradually become more ethereal and pure, like an immortal.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it’s already three days later.

After three days of treatment by Susu, the injuries of the brothers Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were completely healed. Not only did they stand up again, but they also became more energetic.

One can't help but sigh that these two brothers are simply invincible cockroaches.

Su Liu sat on a rattan chair, looking at Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling with a gentle gaze, holding a cup of fragrant tea in his hand, and said with a smile:

"Haha, your brothers' practice of the Art of Immortality is not in vain. At least in terms of saving your lives, you have a strong capital now."

Hearing this, Kou Zhong scratched his head and said with a silly smile:

"What you said is true, sir. If we didn't have the Long Body Technique to save our lives, we two brothers would have died countless times since we entered the martial arts world."

Su Liu nodded slightly, then turned his gaze to Su Su beside him and chuckled:

"Well done, better than I thought."

Hearing Su Liu's praise, Su Su's originally fair face instantly turned red. Her two white and tender hands twisted the corners of her clothes and said softly:

"I don't dare to accept the compliment from you, sir."

"I...I actually made a lot of mistakes, and caused Xiaozhong and Xiaoling to suffer a lot!"

Hearing this, Kou Zhong quickly added:

"It's not Sister Susu's fault!"

After saying that, he subconsciously glanced at Zhai Jiao beside him, snorted coldly, and said angrily:

"If it weren't for someone making things worse, Sister Susu would have cured us a long time ago. She's helping but making things worse. I don't know if she did it on purpose!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhai Jiao immediately became furious, glared at them, and said angrily:

"Who are you saying is making things worse?"

"I have been taking care of you two brothers with all my heart for the past three days. You two are so heartless. It would be fine if you didn't remember my kindness, but why are you still saying bad things about me in front of the master?"

Chapter 712: Questions and answers between master and disciple, discussing Jianghuai!

"You damn girl! How dare you mention this?"

When Kou Zhong mentioned what happened in the past three days, he was filled with anger.

If it was just Sister Susu, it would be fine. At most, the prescription would be wrong, but it could be corrected quickly and she wouldn't suffer much.

But the bad luck was that this damn girl Zhai Jiao was just making things worse.

When she was asked to boil water, it was either not hot enough to remove pig hair or so cold that it made people shiver. She couldn't even do such a small thing, let alone all the other evil deeds.

What made Kou Zhong even more angry was that Zhai Jiao's behavior was only directed at him, but she was quite caring towards Xu Ziling, and everything was normal.

This little bitch just harbors hatred towards me and is deliberately targeting me!

Listening to Kou Zhong complaining bitterly, Su Liu raised his eyebrows, his expression became a little strange, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Silly boy.

A woman treats you differently from others, don't you understand what she is thinking?

But Su Liu was too lazy to point out what the final outcome of this pair of bickering lovers would be. Let nature take its course and let the two of them decide for themselves.

"Well, since you two have recovered, stop complaining about this."

Su Liu put down the teacup in his hand, and swept his eyes over the faces of Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, Zhai Jiao and others one by one, and then slowly spoke:

"You have been my disciples for seven days now. Although these seven days are not a long time, you have received my teachings and have officially become my disciples."

"I have always taught my disciples to combine knowledge with practice. You have learned some skills these days. Don't you want to find a place to show them off?"

"Sir, you mean..."

Hearing this, Kou Zhong's eyes lit up instantly.

Even Xu Ziling, who was usually calm and composed, raised his head.

Zhai Jiao looked at Su Liu impatiently, waiting for the gentleman's reply.

Su Liu did not disappoint these disciples and said with a smile:

"I am planning to give you a task and ask the three of you to complete it. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Kou Zhong was overjoyed, and immediately stood up and said loudly:

"Sir, please give me your orders. I will definitely complete all your orders!"

He is active by nature.

He had been staying in the bathtub in the medicine garden all day for the past three days, which had tortured him. Now that he heard that Su Liu had a task for them to do, he was naturally very excited.

Compared to Kou Zhong's impatience, Xu Ziling was always more calm.

He stood up and bowed, saying respectfully, "Master, I dare not slack off when you give me an order. But I don't know what you want me to do?"

Su Liu smiled slightly, his eyes suddenly became a little dark, his eyes looked through the dense forest, looking at Jiang Huai in the distance, and whispered:

"You have been here for quite some time. What do you think of this Jianghuai area?"

Hearing this, Kou Zhong answered without hesitation:

"This place is close to the river, with convenient transportation and well-connected waterways that stretch from north to south. It is a place that must be fought over by military strategists and is extremely important."

Xu Ziling thought for a moment before he slowly spoke:

"Mr. Zhong is right. This is indeed a dangerous place for military strategists. There have been endless battles for many years. The Jianghuai Army has been entrenched here and has become a local tyrant in recent years. The people's lives have become increasingly difficult."

After hearing the two people's answers, Su Liu nodded.

The personalities of the two men can be seen from Shuanglong’s answers.

Kou Zhong has a broad vision and a big mind. When looking at things, he often focuses on their strategic value and has the bearing of a king and a commander.

However, Xu Ziling is more delicate. While looking down at the world, he can also see the dawn of all living things hidden below. He is a natural Taoist.

Su Liu was quite satisfied with the two people's answers.

Then, he turned his gaze towards Su Su and Zhai Jiao and said softly;

"What about you two? What do you think of this place called Jianghuai?"

Su Su pursed her lips, remembering the tragic experience she had on the day she first met Su Liu. She couldn't help but feel a little scared, and said in a trembling voice:

"This place has been at war for years, and there are soldiers and bandits everywhere. The people are living in poverty, and with all kinds of heavy taxes, their lives are almost unbearable..."

This is the conclusion Susu came to based on her personal experience.

Zhai Jiao sighed and then said angrily:

"Du Fuwei, the leader of the Jianghuai Army, is known as a man with a lot of skills. He is also a well-known hero in the Sui Dynasty. But in my opinion, how can he be considered a hero? He is just a short-sighted warlord!"

After hearing what Zhai Jiao said, Su Liu suddenly became interested and said with a smile;

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Zhai Jiao paused, then said seriously:

"Jianghuai is a place where land and water meet, and there are many merchants from all over the country. It has been a prosperous and wealthy place since ancient times. It occupies such a good place, but Du Fuwei only knows how to drain the pond to catch fish, and does not know how to live with the people. Do you think he is short-sighted?"

Chapter 713: When a country prospers, the people suffer; when a country perishes, the people suffer!

It has to be said that although Zhai Jiao is a woman, her mind and character are better than most men in the world.

Especially in terms of domestic affairs and business, his vision was extremely sharp and he could see Du Fuwei's shortcomings almost at a glance.

And this is indeed the case.

Du Fuwei could not be called a hero at all. At most, he was just a warlord who controlled a certain area.

They occupied the vast Jianghuai region, but did not have any development strategy. They just cared about plundering the people and seizing their wealth, causing the people of the originally prosperous Jianghuai region to live in misery.

If this continues, I'm afraid this Jianghuai area will be destroyed in his hands sooner or later.

After listening to Zhai Jiao's words, Su Liu raised his eyebrows, a hint of praise flashed in his eyes, and he asked softly:

"Then in your opinion, how should the Jianghuai area be governed?"

At this time, Zhai Jiao no longer had the spoiled and unruly look she had before. Instead, she thought seriously for a moment before answering seriously:

"In my opinion, this place has convenient waterways and waterways extending in all directions. It is the best place to do business. If we can quell the war and pursue a strategy of recuperation, we can gather merchants from all over the world here, thus turning this Jianghuai area into a commercial center and gathering the world's wealth!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present fell into deep thought.

Even Kou Zhong was no exception, with a look of deep surprise flashing in his eyes.

It turns out that success is not just about occupying a piece of land or conquering a large territory. Only when you can govern your territory well and win the hearts of the people can you be considered to have a firm foothold.

At this moment, he even looked at Zhai Jiao with some admiration.

It turns out that this unruly girl who looks like a daughter of a wealthy family actually has such a wise and intelligent side. She is just as smart as the military strategists described in the storytelling!

Not only Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling also holds the same view.

It seems that you really have a good eye.
