C1740 She's Still Alive
Chu Qingming led his men into the house with a few pots of water. Mo Nan was startled. He had never thought that this guy would know that he had done something.
"Thank you." He thanked him.
Chu Qingming waved his hand and walked out of the room.
When the room quietened down again, old rascal let out a few breaths to recover his energy. At the same time, he slowly untied Mu Ruyan's tattered clothes.
The various wounds were terrifying.
Not only was the Guiku Ridge hot, but poisonous gas was also permeating the air. In less than a day, the wounds on Mu Ruyan's body had already become festering.
old rascal used clean water to clean her body a few times before making her look cleaner.
After that, he couldn't care less about Mu Da Mei's body. In fact, Mu Ruyan didn't really have anything to admire.
It would be good if she didn't scare people.
Mo Nan immediately returned to his senses. When he returned, he had already bought some tools that were commonly used by doctors from the Upper Realm. There were things like forceps among them. He first took the silver needles and sealed off Niuniu's pain. Then, he took the forceps and started searching for the barbs hidden in the wounds.
Gradually, Mu Ruyan's brows, which were still tightly knitted in her coma, gradually eased up.
...
This busy time, she was busy until dawn.
When Mo Nan finished treating and dressing Mu Ruyan's wounds, he came out of the house exhausted. He took a glance and found that the outside was empty. Pang Hu and Chu Qingming were nowhere to be seen.
"Hiss!"
Little White, on the other hand, heard some noise and came out of the house next door to call him to the house over there.
old rascal followed Little White to the other room. When they entered the room, they saw Pang Hu and Chu Qingming resting on their stomachs.
However, it was obvious that these two weren't in the mood to rest last night. Almost as soon as Mo Nan entered the room, they immediately opened their eyes.
"I'm hungry."
Without explaining, Mo Nan's eyes lit up when he saw the food on the table. He sat at the table and started wolfing down the food in a hurry.
After a long time, he had eaten his fill.
With a plop, under the expectant gaze of one man and two beasts, he suddenly leaned back and fell to the ground. There was no movement, as if he was dead.
Anger instantly flashed through Little White's eyes. He thought that the restaurant had poisoned the food, and he was about to charge out and settle the score with the restaurant's boss.
On the other hand, Chu Qingming walked to Mo Nan's side and squatted down. He stretched out his hand to check his breath and raised his head.
"He's asleep."
When Lil 'White and Pang Hu heard this, they relaxed. After that, a man and two beasts did not know whether to laugh or cry. They served this lord and got into bed. Only then did they quietly leave the room.
...
At the same time, in the Ho family.
When Ho Jiuling returned to the Liehyang City, he immediately found a restaurant and got drunk. As for the fact that he left the Guiku Ridge first, he didn't return to the Ho family until now.
It was almost as if he had just returned. The elders and upper echelon of the He Family all came to him at the same time.
The few Martial Saint elders who were leading the group had angry expressions on their faces. One of them slammed the table heavily. He looked at Ho Jiuling, who was still slightly tipsy, and said with an unfriendly expression.
"Jiuling, let me ask you, where did you go when I didn't see you for a day yesterday?"
"The restaurant."
Ho Jiuling didn't show his joy or anger, he just sat there calmly and said.
"Bullsh * t!"
Hearing this, the elder who spoke could not hold it in any longer. After that, he could not be said to be angry. Instead, he sighed in frustration and anger, "Are you stupid? Are you going to a restaurant? Then let me ask you again. Where are the clan guards that you took away before you left?"
Ho Jiuling said, "Third Uncle, are you questioning me?"
"Nonsense!"
The old Martial Saint slammed the table again and said in a low voice, "You are the head of the family. You are in charge of everything in the Ho family, but we elders have to know what you have done outside, right?"
Seeing that the old man was really worried and did not have any other intentions, he then noticed Ho Chang outside giving him a few looks. Ho Jiuling was silent for a while, then he suddenly smiled and waited for the elders to sit down. He smiled as if he was admitting his mistake.
"It seems that Third Uncle and the rest of you have guessed what I went to do."
The old men looked at each other in unison. Ho Jiuling's words were clearly proof that they had guessed correctly.
They were about to scold Ho Jiuling.
Fortunately, Ho Jiuling took a step forward and said, "Everyone, rest assured. I did not think it through. Fortunately, that kid will never appear in Liehyang City. Therefore, you all can rest assured that there will be no more worries in this matter."
"Really?"
Hearing that, the elders were first suspicious. After all, the young man's performance a few days ago did not seem to be easy to deal with. They only heaved a sigh of relief when Ho Jiuling nodded again.
"Since that's the case, let him handle this matter."
The old Martial Saint said. He was just a dead man. He didn't have the right to make the Ho family worry anymore. Then, he changed the topic and asked about something else:
"By the way, how are the preparations for the banquet going with you and Ho Chang?"
"Don't worry, Third Uncle." Ho Jiuling laughed and returned to his seat. "Although there were some minor mistakes in the process, the fruit still fell into the hands of the Ho family."
The mistake was none other than Ho Chang's auction, which had far exceeded the estimated price of the Ho family. Moreover, he had only bid for one fruit.
However, this fruit was more than enough.
Ho Jiuling smiled and said, "Tomorrow, if we can use this fruit to connect with that distinguished guest of City Lord's Mansion, no matter how much the Ho family spent, it will be worth it."
"If that's really the case, even Lord Tu Qin won't be able to do anything to our Ho family in the Liehyang City."
According to his understanding, Tu Qin was actually loyal to the family behind the distinguished guest.
When that time came, they would be a family. Tu Qin would never dare to make things difficult for them.
"Alright."
When the few old Martial Saint heard this, their faces turned red with joy. Immediately, they ignored Ho Chang, who had spent a lot of money. After a short while, they all stood up and left with smiles on their faces.
As for Ho Jiuling, when the elders left, he began to prepare for tomorrow's matters...
This matter was related to the future of Ho family. No matter what, they could not afford to be careless.

In the end, Mo Nan was tired.
He slept in the restaurant for almost a day before waking up.
After he woke up, he felt as if he had come back to life. After all, he had been transforming his life force in Guiku Ridge for more than half a day. When he returned to the restaurant, he tortured himself for another night to treat Mu Ruyan. It was also a tiring process.
Even he himself couldn't figure out how he managed to persist in the end.
Even after sleeping for so long, it still made his entire body go limp.
After getting up and wiping his face, he was finally much more energetic. When he got out of the house, Mo Nan saw Qing Ming and the other two fellows standing guard outside.
"Where's Ruyan? Did she wake up?" He asked subconsciously.
"No." Hearing that, Qing Styx opened his eyes and shook his head.
