Chapter 416 Is Master Yu Ji's reputation well-deserved? Wei Yan: I'm afraid you won't
Liu Biao chose to meet with Zhang Yun.
Zhang Yun was his nephew, the son of Liu Biao's sister.
Liu Biao trusted Zhang Yun far more than he trusted Lady Cai.
Seeing Liu Biao's "withered and emaciated" appearance, Zhang Yun tightly grasped his arm and burst into tears.
"Uncle, your nephew has not taken good care of you."
Seeing Zhang Yun crying like a big, fat baby, Liu Biao couldn't help but think of his deceased sister.
"Bobei, you're a grown man now, how can you shed tears so easily?"
"I am getting old and I am afraid I will not be able to take care of you indefinitely."
"You must remember to protect yourself and not get involved with Cai Mao and his ilk."
Zhang Yun feigned a look of deep understanding, but inwardly he curled his lip in disdain.
If I don't get involved with Cai Mao and the others, am I supposed to be buried alive with you, Uncle?
I, Zhang Yun, don't want to die so young!
The uncle and nephew chatted for a while longer about everyday things.
Seeing that the time was right, Zhang Yun said:
"Uncle, my nephew's family is keeping several Taoist priests."
"They have a set of medicinal therapies that can invigorate the mind and spirit, which might be able to help my uncle."
Liu Biao was suddenly alarmed.
He asked sternly:
"Bobei, could it be that you are colluding with the Cai family to kill me?"
"Otherwise, why did you two both recommend Taoist priests to this old man?"
"I don't know whether the Taoist priests you speak of are actually part of the same group!"
"But I tell you, even if I die here, I will not take even a single pill from a Taoist priest!"
Seeing Liu Biao's fury, Zhang Yun pretended to be terrified and hurriedly retreated.
Liu Biao sighed deeply.
Even your own nephew can't be trusted!
Perhaps, only Liu Qi can put his mind at ease.
Although he was a coward, it was impossible for him to associate with Cai Mao, Kuai Yue, and others.
I wonder how Liu Qi is doing now.
In a few more days, we should arrive in Jiangxia, right?
a few hours later
As night fell, Liu Biao was just about to go to sleep.
Suddenly, the housekeeper knocked on the door urgently, saying that Liu Qi had returned!
Liu Biao was greatly alarmed, subconsciously thinking that something had happened in Jiangxia, which forced Liu Qi to return to Xiangyang immediately after setting off.
But when he saw Liu Qi, he saw that Liu Qi was accompanied by a Taoist priest with a refined and otherworldly appearance!
“Father, this is Master Yu Ji, whom I met on my journey.”
"Upon hearing that his father was unwell, he made a special trip from Jiangdong to Xiangyang, hoping to offer his father some medical treatment!"
Upon hearing that it was another Taoist priest, Liu Biao flew into a rage.
But when he heard Yu Ji's name, his anger immediately dissipated by 80%.
Yu Ji has consistently ranked first among Taoists in the Jiangdong region.
His reputation was so great that even Liu Biao, Sun Quan's neighbor, had heard of it.
Moreover, because Sun Ce died earlier than in the original history and had not yet had time to take action against Yu Ji, Yu Ji's reputation became even more prominent.
In the past two years, Yu Ji has even been preparing to expand his business and venture into the northern Taoist community, striving to fill the market gap left by Zhang Jiao!
For this reason, Yu Ji began to hunt down Ge Xuan.
On my territory, you dare to openly teach Taoist practices from other temples? Isn't that a slap in the face to me, Master Yu?
And this moment.
With the added benefit of celebrity influence.
Liu Biao subconsciously felt that this "Yu Ji" in front of him must really have some skills.
Furthermore.
There is no way that Liu Qi could associate with Cai Mao and his group.
The Taoist priests mentioned by Madam Cai and Zhang Yun were not famous Taoist priests like Yu Ji.
This is enough to prove that Yu Ji, whom Liu Qi found, was completely different from Madam Cai and Zhang Yun in their approach.
Madam Cai and Zhang Yun might be trying to harm him!
But Liu Qi would never do that!
People always tend to think they're clever in their subconscious, especially those who pride themselves on being cautious.
He was cautious once or twice, but he couldn't be cautious his whole life.
If it weren't for the groundwork laid by Madam Cai and Zhang Yun...
Given Liu Biao's usual habits, he was unwilling to entrust his life to a Taoist priest.
But at this moment, he was also genuinely curious and hoped that Yu Ji in front of him had a way to save him!
"Your Excellency, may I examine your pulse, please?"
Liu Biao nodded.
Then "Yu Ji" pretended to take the pulse, revealing an expression that said it was indeed true.
"Your Excellency, you've been drinking quite a lot of herbal medicine lately, haven't you?"
Liu Biao was also surprised. Yu Ji could tell at a glance what was going on with the medicine soup. He was indeed extraordinary.
In reality, this kind of thing is easy to guess and doesn't require much skill.
However, with the added benefit of celebrity influence, Liu Qi viewed Yu Ji through a filter.
Yu Ji sighed:
"Your Excellency should really not have drunk these medicinal soups."
"The root cause of your illness lies in overwork and improper care."
"The purpose of herbal decoction is to treat illness. If you drink herbal decoction, your health will not only not improve, but may even suffer other adverse effects."
Liu Biao's puzzled brows instantly relaxed.
Right!
All right!
He said that he had been drinking the herbal medicine for several days, but it had no effect whatsoever.
So, the symptoms weren't right!
"Your Excellency, do not worry. This old Taoist priest has a kind of elixir here that can quickly help Your Excellency restore your energy."
"You'll see results within half a day after taking it."
"Half a day?"
"I can wait."
Liu Biao accepted the elixir from Yu Ji.
Little did they know, this Yu Ji was not the real Yu Ji at all, but a follower of the Taiping Dao under Zhang Ning.
Liu Biao was not easy to fool, but no one said Liu Qi was hard to fool!
If you can't fool Liu Biao, then fool his beloved eldest son!
and so.
The Taoist priests recommended to Liu Biao by Lady Cai, Zhang Yun, and Liu Qi were actually the same group of people.
However, both Madam Cai and Zhang Yun played a supporting role.
Only Liu Qi's approach is the real killer move!
Oh, by the way, Liu Qi himself was also tricked by the Taiping Dao followers into taking elixirs.
However, since he was not sick and was in slightly better health than Liu Biao, he should be able to last a few more days than Liu Biao.
Because information flows too slowly, this era lacks anti-fraud capabilities.
Otherwise, Liu Biao and his son Liu Qi should really download an app like this.
The Taoist priest said he was Yu Ji, but was he really Yu Ji?
After Liu Biao swallowed that pill...
In less than six hours, he felt a strong life force.
Even some parts that were long unusable have been revitalized.
Liu Biao was overjoyed!
Master Yu Ji truly lives up to his reputation!
Liu Qi was no exception, treating Yu Ji as an honored guest.
But neither of them knew that.
This elixir is actually forcibly overdrawing the limited life force of the two people!
