Chapter 355: The Monster Mother and Daughter

The next day.

Luo Zijun was sleeping comfortably on a lounge chair covered with a blanket when he was woken up by someone.

"Divine Doctor Hua, Miss Shui is here."

A jailer whispered in his ear.

Luo Zijun opened his eyes and saw a tall, slender, and familiar figure standing on the other side.

She was wearing a tight black leather outfit, her hair tied in a high ponytail, and her pair of azure eyes were watching him quietly.

Luo Zijun sat up at once and said, "How is your father's condition? Has the fever broken?"

This concerned his very life and death.

If that Shui Ye had truly died after he amputated his leg, this young girl's promise would likely turn to ash on the spot.

"The fever has broken."

The expression on Shui Wu's face remained cold, but her tone was much gentler and more relaxed: "By noon, he was already able to eat, and he even got out of bed on one leg to move around a bit."

Upon hearing this, Luo Zijun secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good."

Heaven be praised, his little life is saved!

At this moment, Wang Qiangzhuang's voice suddenly came from inside the cell: "Can Miss Shui fulfill her promise and release us, as well as our friend?"

Shui Wu paused upon hearing this, glanced at the person on the lounge chair before her, and said, "I can let you out of the cell, but I cannot let you leave immediately."

"Why? Miss Shui clearly promised yesterday."

Wang Qiangzhuang's voice sounded somewhat angry.

"I did promise."

Shui Wu did not deny it, then added: "But what I said was that if you could cure my father's illness, I would take charge of letting you leave. Now that my father has only just broken his fever, it cannot be confirmed that his illness has been cured."

Wang Qiangzhuang said, "Then how long does Miss Shui think it will take to be sure?"

Shui Wu did not answer directly, only saying: "Wait until my father can walk out the door, wait until he himself is certain he is completely well; we will talk about it then."

Luo Zijun immediately stood up from the lounge chair and said, "Miss Shui, your father only has one leg now, how is he supposed to walk out the door?"

Shui Wu looked at him and said, "That is your problem."

"Aren't you just going back on your word? A gentleman's word is as good as gold! You promised it yourself yesterday, how can you go back on it?"

Luo Zijun had an angry expression on his face.

Shui Wu's cheeks flushed slightly; she turned around, looked outside, and said, "I am not going back on my word; I just want to be sure my father is truly all right. Also, I am not a gentleman."

"Brother Hua, let her release us first. You slept comfortably last night, but we were stunk to death in here!"

Song Erlang shouted from inside.

Little Daoist Yiye also said, "Benefactor Hua, have them release my master!"

Luo Zijun had no choice but to say, "Miss Shui, then just release them and that Daoist first; that shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Shui Wu turned her head to look at him and said, "How did you get out? Why are you sleeping here?"

The several men guarding the prison standing nearby immediately had guilty expressions on their faces.

Luo Zijun said with an air of justification: "I am a divine doctor; where I sleep is my freedom. Who dares to force me? Unless they and their loved ones never get sick for the rest of their lives."

"Hmph!"

Shui Wu snorted, did not press the matter further, and said, "Let's go, to see the other patient. As for them and that old Daoist, someone will come to release them."

Luo Zijun hurriedly said, "Let them come with me; I don't dare go alone."

Shui Wu glanced at him sideways, her tone mocking: "You get scared too? I thought you were fearless, not even afraid of death."

Luo Zijun said, "I still get scared occasionally, especially when facing a girl who is unfamiliar yet very beautiful."

The air suddenly went quiet.

In the cell, Wang Qiangzhuang helplessly covered his forehead.

This guy...

Those few men guarding the prison also turned their heads to look elsewhere, secretly feeling admiration.

Shui Wu narrowed her eyes, stared at him for a moment, then coldly snorted, turned around, and walked up the steps, saying coldly, "Less glib talk, follow me!"

Sunlight spilled down from the steps, falling upon her tall, slender figure; on her face, which remained cold, two blushes had appeared at some unknown moment.

"The wind blows cold, the Yi River chills, the hero departs and... Captain, I'm heading off first!"

Luo Zijun shouted toward the inside and followed her up the steps, his gaze involuntarily falling upon the firm, rounded, and constantly swaying buttocks in front of him.

With a figure like this, why wear a tight outfit...

For some reason, he suddenly thought of his Senior Sister. With her top-tier figure, if she were to also wear this black tight outfit, then bend her slender waist and lean over the counter with her bottom stuck out, her chest pressed against it...

Forget it, stop thinking about it; thinking about it gives him a headache.

"Aw u, is this the divine doctor you invited from outside yesterday?"

"Tsk tsk, he's actually this young? After your father was treated by him, he really woke up?"

"I heard this kid can really bring people back from the dead, is that true?"

Along the way, men and women, old and young, all had eyes shining with excitement, as if looking at a rare treasure, discussing him excitedly.

Seeing this, Luo Zijun felt not joy but alarm, thinking to himself that this was bad.

In a godforsaken place like this, now that a divine doctor had appeared, who would be willing to let him leave?

"Miss Shui, actually, I only have a slight understanding of medicine. Treating your father yesterday was just a coincidence. As for other illnesses, I fear I lack the ability and might end up killing the patient. I think you could go to the nearby town to look; you should be able to find some real physicians and divine doctors."

Looking at the crowd around him with their excited faces and shining eyes, he was truly a bit scared.

Shui Wu walked in front and said indifferently upon hearing this: "We have already found several, and none were as skilled as you. We have also inquired; in Linhai Town, your reputation is the loudest. The residents there all say you can cure any illness and that you are a divine doctor in every sense of the word."

Luo Zijun: "..."

It's over; this is truly lifting a rock only to drop it on one's own feet.

"You don't need to be modest."
