299 Chi Tu Goes to Save Someone
Doctor Hu would pick herbs every morning. Usually, he did not go far. He would return at noon and teach Hu Xiaotong how to concoct herbs in the afternoon.
It was only morning, so it was normal for Dr. Hu not to return yet.
However, when Doctor Hu went out in the morning, a viger realized that Doctor Hu looked tired, as if he had not rested well.
The vigers were worried and went directly to the mountains.
Coincidentally, the viger encountered a snake halfway.
Usually, when the vigers saw a snake, they would either quickly scare it away or capture it and eat it.
However, ever since the snakes saved them, the vigers no longer liked to eat snakes. Usually, they would even greet the snakes.
When the snake saw that the vigers did not leave immediately, it wagged its tail at him and turned around to slither out slowly. Seeing that the viger did not follow, it repeated the above actions.
“This snake probably wants to lead the way for me.” This thought appeared in the viger’s mind.
Hence, he followed the snake and saw Doctor Hu, who had fallen into the ravine.
If Little Ah Yu and the others were here, they would be able to recognize that this snake was the same one that had brought them to find the Paris polyphy.
Dr. Hu was an adult man and was not light. The viger could not move him back alone, so he could only run back to call for help.
When Hu Xiaotong heard that his father had fallen, he couldn’t care less about anything else. He immediately wanted to run out with the others.
He was pulled back.
When he turned around, it was Tang Yuan.
Tang Yuan said, “You’re small and weak. If you go, you’ll only cause trouble. You might as well stay at home and wait for news. Your father is a doctor, but he’s injured. He can only rely on a young doctor like you now.”
This was the first time Hu Xiaotong had heard the word young doctor. He was still a little stunned.
He still had a long way to go before he could practice medicine. Calling him a young doctor was overestimating him.
“Big Brother Xiaotong!” Because themotion was too loud, Little Ah Yu also ran over. She tugged at the expressionless Chi Tu at the side and said, “Let Uncle Tu go. Uncle Tu runs very quickly and is especially strong. He can bring Grandpa Hu back by himself.”
Hu Xiaotong looked at Chi Tu in surprise.
He didn’t seem to have seen this person before, but when the Wang Family was building the house, some people from Big River Vige came to help.
Perhaps he was from Great River Vige.
Chi Tu suppressed the helplessness in his heart and said to Hu Xiaotong, “I won’t help you for nothing. I want ten copper coins.”
The viger beside him hurriedly exined, “This person is from the construction team hired by the Qin family previously. Although he looks thin, he’s actually very capable. If we let him go, Doctor Hu will definitely be rescued faster.”
Afraid that Hu Xiaotong did not have that much money on him, the vigers each took out their wallets and pooled one copper coin each. Soon, more than 10 copper coins were ced in front of Chi Tu.
Even Little Ah Yu took out two copper coins from her pocket.
The monthly allowance of the Wang family’s children had not increased. It was still the same five copper coins from before. As soon as Little Ah Yu obtained it, she gave it to Wang Wng.
She was not very rich now.
Little Ah Yu said, “Uncle Chi Tu, sorry to trouble you!”
Little Ah Yu was overjoyed and felt that she had done a good thing.
Uncle Tu must be very happy to earn another sum of money like this, right?
“He’s fast. Let him go, lest Doctor Hu suffers in the ravine.” The other vigers were still persuading Hu Xiaotong.
Hu Xiaotong thought to himself that he would return the money to the vigers when his father returned.
Chi Tu could only ept the order and leave.
After leaving the vigers’ sight, Chi Tu directly used his martial skills. On the way, he kept reflecting.
What went wrong? Why did their serious secret guards be handymen who did all kinds of errands?
