Chapter 479 Brahma Invites You
So the night passed. When Zhu Yu woke up the next day, Lu Qing was sitting at the table, playing with the brass pendant in his hand, lost in thought. When he saw that she was awake, he smiled at her slightly: "Did you sleep well? If you are still sleepy, you can sleep a little longer. You can get up when you are not sleepy."

Zhu Yu shook her head: "I've had a good night's sleep... Today... something just feels off..."

She rubbed her eyes, still a little dazed, and looked towards the window. She found that the sun was shining brightly outside, and it seemed that it was already past Chenshi (7-9 AM).

"I've slept for so long..." Zhu Yu finally realized what was wrong. "Why is the inn so quiet today?"

“Yes, it’s a bit too quiet.” Lu Qing smiled, got up to help Zhu Yu with the coat she was about to wear, and pulled the screen over to block the view in front of the bed. “You might have to work a little harder today. You have to make sure you look completely flawless.”

Zhu Yu understood what he meant, responded, and carefully wrapped the loose bodice she had worn the day before back tightly around her body. Then she changed her clothes and turned around in front of Lu Qing.

Lu Qing checked it and confirmed there were no problems. He smiled and nodded, "Since my disciple has finished preparing, please come downstairs with me to see what's going on."

The two left the room, where Fu Wen and Fu Lu were already guarding the door. Fu Wen met Lu Qing's gaze, glanced downstairs, and nodded solemnly: "Master, the fish have arrived."

"Call Yan Daoxin, we should head out now, it's not good to leave them waiting outside for too long." Lu Qing waved his hand at him.

Before he finished speaking, Yan Daoxin opened the door and came out of the room next door: "No need to call me, I got up a long time ago and have been waiting for you."

It's rare that I wasn't woken up early this morning by someone blocking my door and chattering away. I was hoping to enjoy this quiet time a little longer!

He sighed and rubbed his temples: "Let's go, let's go. We've been through so much trouble, just waiting for this moment. Let's go and have a chat!"

Lu Qing took the veil handed to her by the talisman and put it on her head before following Yan Daoxin.

When the group arrived downstairs, they found the inn's main door tightly shut. The innkeeper and his young waiter stood timidly to one side, looking as if they had lost their parents and were about to weep.

"Divine Doctor... Divine Doctor, I'm so sorry! It's all my fault for having such a loose tongue!" The young shop assistant had been taking the medicine as Yan Daoxin had instructed for the past few days, sleeping soundly every night and feeling incredibly comfortable. Now, he felt even more guilty and sad, his eyes reddening with anxiety. He rushed towards Yan Daoxin from afar, bent his knees, and knelt on the ground. "I should have never told anyone, even if you killed me!"
As a result, I blurted it out and told our shopkeeper... I never expected... I never expected his relative to be so unreliable... Now the whole town knows...

I was worried about something happening a few days ago, but the innkeeper reassured me that our inn was in a remote location, so I figured it wouldn't be anything serious...

As a result... that's what happened today..."

Yan Daoxin pulled him up from the ground: "What's done is done. Do you think you can get away with breaking your leg by kneeling?"

Besides, I haven't even figured out what's going on yet.

The innkeeper also came over to help pull the young waiter up and make him stand aside, afraid that his crying would hinder the divine physician from figuring out the truth. "Divine physician... I'm so sorry... I should have helped you turn away all the people who came seeking medical help." The innkeeper also looked full of remorse. "You cured my uncle's grandson's illness back then... but now, because I was too careless, thinking that the Prince's Mansion hadn't posted notices in the capital looking for doctors for a long time... I thought there was nothing to worry about... this... what should I do..."

"So now the guards of the Prince's Mansion have surrounded your inn and want me to come and examine your Prince?" Yan Daoxin waved his hand dismissively. "So what? What's wrong with taking a look?"

Those people who came after hearing the news these past few days, I didn't ask you to drive them away. After all, people say that when you're desperate, you'll try anything. They didn't even know anything about me, yet they rashly asked me to treat them. They must be people who are desperate and have no other choice.

I'm a person who only sees patients when the opportunity arises. I see whoever I want, and I'll just go to the Prince's Mansion. I can't let people keep blocking my shop like this. How can a business be closed?

The shopkeeper, already looking apologetic, became even more flustered upon hearing Yan Daoxin's frank and nonchalant words. He leaned closer and whispered, "Divine Physician, you may not know this... many doctors have come to examine our King before, but none of them could find anything wrong. Afterwards... it's rumored that their fates were not good..."

"Don't worry, I know my own medical skills." Yan Daoxin had finished being polite to him and had no patience to say anything more. He waved his hand at the shopkeeper and said, "Go on, open the door. Whether you stick your neck out or not, you'll get stabbed anyway. What's the point of dragging it out?"

The shopkeeper, with a bitter face, pulled his young assistant to open the door. As soon as they opened the door, they saw a row of burly men standing neatly outside. This time, they didn't try to hide their presence by wearing coarse cloth clothes. They were all wearing the proper narrow-sleeved bodysuits of guards, each with a sword hanging at their waist, looking menacing.

Judging from the situation, it's probably not just this row in front of the door; the back door of the inn's backyard must also be blocked.

Zhu Yu followed closely beside Lu Qing, stealing glances at the guards outside from behind him.

For a wandering doctor who can't cure the root cause of the illness to make such a big fuss, it seems either the King of Brahma is seriously ill, or they simply can't find any other skilled doctors to treat him.

Or perhaps, both possibilities exist.

Although the guards seemed determined to make it impossible for the inn's divine healer to escape, their attitude was still quite polite when they saw Yan Daoxin and his group appear at the door. They first sized up the group, and apart from Lu Qing, whose face was obscured by a veil, the others all seemed to have an extraordinary air about them. The one in the lead even looked like a pale-faced immortal, so they couldn't help but restrain themselves a bit.

"Several divine physicians, our King has always valued those who practice medicine the most, and he pays special attention to those with superb medical skills."

I recently heard that several miraculous doctors with healing skills have come to the capital, and today they have specially invited us to their residence for a chat.

We cordially invite you all to join us at the Prince's residence.

As they spoke, they made way for the door.

However, the guards kept their hands on their swords, the meaning of which was self-evident.
