The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

When he went to eat noodles, the little girl always called him "brother," she was especially well-behaved and sensible.

To him, the girl was practically someone he watched grow up; he was like her older brother.

Seeing the girl crying with tears streaming down her face, Er Yuehong felt a pang in his heart.

But considering his status and the fact that his father wouldn't give him money for something like this, he held back.

The girl cried harder and harder, and his heart ached more and more.

Just as he was trying to suppress his emotions and look away.

The girl, her eyes filled with despair and pleading, happened to see him upstairs in the brothel.

When she saw him, a glimmer of hope appeared in the girl's eyes, and she shouted to her brother.

Upon hearing the word "brother," he could no longer suppress his anger.

With a swift movement, he leaped from the upper floor and blocked the path of the kiln workers.

The kiln business also belongs to the "eight unofficial trades," and may even have some connection to his family, so he didn't use force.

To redeem the girl, he destroyed a newly erected grave less than a month old, took three gold hairpins from it, and exchanged the girl for the traffickers.

Shortly afterwards.

The girl became his wife, his only wife.

From then on, he never visited brothels again, transforming from a playboy into a devoted husband.

Perhaps it was because he broke the rules by using the money from the new grave to exchange for a maid. Not long after the maid entered the household, her health deteriorated, getting worse day by day.

Therefore, he dared not get out of bed again, fearing that the retribution would be even more severe.

Even the maidservant never touched anything that came out of the ground again.

He doesn't get down on the ground, and the girl doesn't touch the ground either. So how did the girl get the poison in her body?

It can only be because of someone in the manor...

Bang!

After a moment of silence, Er Yuehong slammed his fist on the table, a fierce look appearing on his face.

For over a decade, I have been extremely cautious.

Unexpectedly, it was someone in the household who harmed the maid.

"Hey...々."

At the same time, the sound of a door opening rang out.

Everyone looked over at the sound and saw Zhang Qishan open the door and lean half his body in.

Seeing Er Yuehong's pale face, Zhang Qishan seemed to have thought of something. He nodded to everyone in the hall and closed the door again.

"Master, what's the situation? Has a fight broken out?"

At this moment, Qi Tiezui, who was standing next to Zhang Qishan, asked in a low voice.

"What are you thinking about?"

Zhang Qishan glared at Qi Tiezui with annoyance, his face darkening.

"The Second Master's wife's illness... may not be cured."

"When you see Second Master again, don't say anything out of line."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Tiezui was stunned, his mouth agape, and then he let out a heavy sigh.

"What a wonderful person..."

..............................

"Second Master..."

"Please don't be angry. Didn't Master Fang say that my illness can be cured?"

Seeing Er Yuehong's fierce expression, the maid quickly tried to persuade him to stop.

In fact, after hearing what Fang Yun said, she already knew the origin of the so-called insidious poison.

However, she didn't want Er Yuehong to know about this.

Because Er Yuehong treated her too well, if she knew the truth... people in the manor would surely die.

"cough.."

Before she could say two words, the girl's face turned pale again, and she started coughing.

Seeing this, Er Yuehong quickly composed himself and nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, let's treat the illness first, please don't worry."

Seeing that the girl had caught her breath, Er Yuehong breathed a sigh of relief, but the thoughts that had surfaced in his mind earlier had not disappeared.

Girl...

I can't listen to you on this anymore.

Whoever harmed you like this... I can't forgive them, no matter who it is!

After composing himself, Er Yuehong looked at Fang Yun.

"Master Fang, thank you so much for treating the girl."

Fang Yun waved his hand and smiled:

"It's alright. I know your mind is no longer on this. Take your wife home."

"By the way, before the root of the disease is eradicated, do not let her eat anything cold or cooling. She can only eat warm foods. This is very important, so please remember it clearly."

"Okay, I see."

Er Yuehong nodded solemnly and bowed deeply to Fang Yun once again.

"I will never forget the great kindness of saving my wife!"

"After the girl recovers, Er Yuehong is willing to give her the entire Hong family estate."

The heavy burden that had been weighing on my mind for over a decade has finally been lifted.

Now, he has no more desires.

If he could, he really wanted to take the girl and find a secluded place to spend the rest of his life in peace.

Hearing Er Yuehong's solemn thanks, Fang Yun's lips curled up, but he shook his head again.

"No need for money, I'm not short of money."

Er Yuehong was taken aback, then nodded emphatically.

"If Master Fang ever needs anything in the future, Er Yuehong will do anything, even die a thousand times over!"

...............................

Fang Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief after Er Yuehong and the maid left the room.

He remembered some things; it was Chen Pi who dug up an ancient hairpin from the ground and gave it to the maid, which led to the maid contracting the evil poison.

However, this kind of thing is none of his business, and he doesn't need to meddle in it.

"Can it really be cured?"

At this moment, the Seventh Sister sat down next to Fang Yun and asked a question out of curiosity.

It wasn't that she didn't believe Fang Yun, but she just found the matter somewhat unbelievable.

After all, Er Yuehong had consulted every famous doctor (Li Mahao) who could be hired with money and sincerity, but none of them could cure the girl.

Upon hearing this, Fang Yun moved his chair next to the Seventh Sister, put his arm around her shoulder, and smiled smugly.

"If I say it can be cured, then it can be cured."

"There are probably very few people in this world who can cure her. She was lucky to have met me."

He wasn't exaggerating at all when he said that.

To cure the girl, one must first be proficient in pharmacology, then understand the underground ailments, and possess the precious molted tortoise shell.

There's probably no other person like that in the world.

"Second Master is truly extraordinary."

Seventh Sister nodded, sighed, but her gaze lingered on Fang Yun's face, seemingly unintentionally.

"I will not let you down either."

Fang Yun understood what the Seventh Miss meant, took her slender hand in his palm, and gently rubbed it.

A look of satisfaction flashed in the Seventh Sister's eyes. She tidied her hair and said calmly.

"If you betray me, I will kill you."

Fang Yun was taken aback, then a warm smile appeared on his face.

"That day will never come." (Disturbing)
