Chapter 113

"I will also instruct your uncle and aunt to do the same, and have them supervise you together!"

"Rest assured! I guarantee I won't let you make mistakes, and I will definitely help you nurse your health back to good condition."

Guo Jia: "......."

I really thank you so much!

"Do you have to be this ruthless? You might as well just kill me!"

Guo Jia slumped directly onto the ground and gave up, saying, "Whatever."

What is all this?

He regretted it; he shouldn't have come to today's gathering.

Seeing this, Xun You and Xi Zhicai exchanged a glance and both laughed heartily.

Xi Zhicai patted Xun You on the shoulder and said, "Then Fengxiao's health is in your hands!"

"Alright!"

Su Xuan, on his side, immediately took out paper and brush from his robes, wrote a prescription, handed it to Xun You, and said, "It's better to leave this with you for safekeeping on his behalf! Remember to supervise him to drink the medicine on time and drink less alcohol!"

Following that, he looked at the lifeless-looking Guo Jia and said, "Actually, after a few years, it will be fine!"

"Of course, alcohol must never be consumed in excess!"

"If you want to drink more, you can practice martial arts to strengthen your body. As long as you can reach the Transformation Realm, excessive drinking won't really be a big deal!"

"Because, with the body control of the Transformation Realm, you can completely force the alcohol vapor out of your body while drinking."

He and Dian Wei and the others had verified this point; it was absolutely reliable.

"Forget it!"

However, upon hearing this, Guo Jia couldn't help but roll his eyes and retort, "If I had the heart and talent to practice martial arts, would I have waited until today?"

Practicing martial arts requires enduring great hardship, working day and night, and long-term persistent bitter cultivation to achieve anything.

And this is assuming one has the talent for martial arts.

As a playboy, Guo Jia lacked the talent, the ability to endure hardship, and the patience for martial arts.

He could read books with great enthusiasm, especially military strategy books.

But as for the rest, that was not necessarily the case.

Furthermore, practicing martial arts is not cheap.

He was so poor, how could he afford it?

Not everyone has the ability of Dian Wei to easily hunt wild beasts or even exotic beasts to supply their own martial arts training.

". You!"

Su Xuan was speechless upon hearing this.

He decided not to bother with Guo Jia for the time being.

He planned to properly train Guo Jia after he eventually brought him under his command.

No matter what, he had to get his physical fitness up.

At worst, he would try to research and create a few types of medicinal wines that were beneficial for strengthening the body and assisting in martial arts cultivation.

There are always more solutions than problems.

Of course, he wouldn't tell Guo Jia this good news for now; let him suffer a bit under Xun You's supervision first!

How can one be kidney-deficient at only 14 years old?

Too indulgent.

Su Xuan then looked at Xi Zhicai and said, "Zhicai, your illness might be terminal to others, but I have a way to cure you;"

"Later, I will first teach you a set of health-preserving cultivation methods; you practice them first;"

"When the war eases up a bit, I will then provide you with targeted treatment!"

"Although your illness can be cured, it is quite troublesome and requires a long treatment time. Not only does it require a large amount of medicinal herbs, but some medicines also require special tools to prepare;"

"Now that we are out and about, and the war is tight, there are no conditions to get these for the time being. I hope you don't mind."

He would not allow Xi Zhicai to die young.

Living to a hundred, and even if he could create a longevity method in the future, he hoped that Xi Zhicai and the civil and military officials around him could all attain longevity!

It would be a pity if such a useful tool-man died.

"The Lord is too serious!"

Xi Zhicai was deeply moved upon hearing this, shook his head, and said, "You are a Divine Doctor; everything should be done according to what you say! I have endured for so many years, I am not in a hurry."

"I must also thank the Lord for his high esteem and concern."

With such a Lord, what more could one ask for?

"Cough cough! That..."

At this moment, Guo Jia, who was slumped on the ground, suddenly flipped over and stood up, licking his face as he looked at Su Xuan and asked eagerly, "Brother Su, is this health-preserving cultivation method of yours difficult to learn? Is the process arduous? Can you teach it to me too?"

Before Su Xuan could answer, Dian Wei, who had long found Guo Jia an eyesore, couldn't help but retort angrily, "You are not anyone to my Lord, why should he teach it to you?"

This guy had always been ungrateful, even refusing the Lord's recruitment, and not appreciating the Lord's diagnosis, which made Dian Wei very unhappy.

He said whatever he had directly; he wouldn't hide anything.

"Uh..."

Upon hearing this, Guo Jia's expression froze. He lowered his head and frowned, reflecting on his behavior today, and suddenly felt it was highly inappropriate.

He immediately straightened his expression, raised his head, bowed deeply to Su Xuan, and said, "General! Previously, Guo Jia was too presumptuous and reckless! Please forgive me!"

"Whether it is the matter of the fine wine or the matter of your diagnosis for me earlier, I will keep it in my heart. Consider that I owe you two big favors;"

"In the future, the General can use these two favors to ask me to do two things that do not violate my principles and my heart."

Hearing this, whether it was Su Xuan, Dian Wei, or Xun You and Xi Zhicai, they all nodded with some satisfaction and relief.

This is more like it!

"However,"

However, the next moment, Guo Jia's expression changed again. He licked his face, grabbed Su Xuan's hand, and requested, "Is this health-preserving cultivation method of yours difficult to learn? Is the process arduous? Can you teach it to me too?"

"If you satisfy the above requirements, and you are still willing to teach it to me, and this method can solve my problem, allowing me not to have to abstain from alcohol and lust, then what would be the harm in selling this life to you and acknowledging you as my Lord?"

Su Xuan: "...."

Dian Wei: "....."

"Slap!"

Xun You and Xi Zhicai even slapped their own faces.

This guy is truly hopeless.

In order not to abstain from alcohol and lust, he really has no shame left.

"We'll see!"

Su Xuan said, pushing Guo Jia aside, ignoring his mournful gaze, and looked at Xun You to instruct, "Leave this kid with you for a while to grind down his temperament. Wait until I pacify the war and return in triumph, when I have some free time!"

"I will then take him back to Deng County to train him personally, how about that?"

Since Guo Jia had offered himself up, Su Xuan naturally wouldn't refuse.

But without giving this kid a profound lesson and making him change his temperament, he would likely be ruined in the future.

Therefore, he could only trouble Xun You.

"Haha! No problem!"

Xun You ignored Guo Jia's resentment, nodded knowingly, and agreed directly.
