Nine Turns of Nirvana

"Mr. Lu, please have some tea. This is the Mingqian tea from Danzhou. It tastes very good..."

"Mr. Lu, have a piece of dessert. This is made by the best pastry chef in Jinkou City. It is crispy, delicate and delicious..."

"Mr. Lu, you must be exhausted from rescuing our young master just now. How about I ask a few beautiful maids to come up and help you loosen up your bones..."

Lu Yu and Dou Changhe became guests of honor in Yu Mansion.

The butler fawned on them and served them with a flattering face, which was in sharp contrast to his previous arrogant attitude.

No wonder he was arrogant at first and respectful later. What happened just now almost scared him to death.

The fake Xue Xuanzhen was invited by him personally. He almost killed the young master of Yu Mansion. If it weren't for Lu Yu's miraculous hand, he would have made a big mistake at this moment. His end might be even more miserable than that of the fake Xue Xuanzhen.

Therefore, he was extremely grateful for Lu Yu's help, and at the same time, he also hoped that Lu Yu could say a few good words for him in front of his master, so as to preserve his position in the Yu Mansion.

An hour ago, when he just met Lu Yu, he never thought that his future and fate would be tied to this man who still looked like a teenager.

"Okay, since you know that my young master is tired, why do you keep making noise here? How can you let him rest like this? Get out!" Dou Changhe said unceremoniously.

"Yes, yes, sir, you are right... Then I won't disturb the young master's rest. If the young master has anything to do, just call me directly. I will wait outside the door..."

The butler said as he reluctantly retreated.

Watching the butler disappear outside the door, Dou Changhe sneered.

"This person used to be arrogant and conceited, but now he is so servile. The young master is really good at this. I am relieved!" Lu Yu smiled gently: "We are just lucky!" "No, this cannot be called luck. I think it should be destiny. The young master is a man of destiny." The two chatted for a while. After a while, Yu Wanli came in, followed by the steward Liu Chang, who was holding a black wooden box in his hand. Yu Wanli asked Liu Chang to present the black wooden box. "Here are eight hundred soul-gathering pills. Consider them as a thank you gift to Mr. Lu for saving my son. Please do not refuse!"

"In the future, if Mr. Lu needs more soul-gathering pills, just send someone to let me know. I will do my best to arrange for you and then send someone to your house. How about that?"

"As for Mr. Lu's request for cooperation, this matter will be coordinated by Manager Liu with you... Liu Chang, from now on, you are the executive of the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce, responsible for business dealings with the Lu family, and you must do a good job of coordinating all matters!"

Liu Chang was stunned when he heard this.

The difference between the manager of the Yu Mansion and the executive of the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce in terms of authority is not a little bit. The former is just a higher-level errand boy, while the latter is a powerful person with great prestige.

He never thought that such a great thing would come to him without any warning.

This is really a case of sitting at home and having happiness from heaven.

"Yes... I will do my best to coordinate matters for Wanhe Chamber of Commerce and the Lu family!" Liu Chang said with a trembling voice. Yu Wanli looked back at Lu Yu. "Mr. Lu, what do you think of my arrangement?" "Good!" Lu Yu smiled heartily and took the wooden box from Liu Chang. "Since President Yu is so generous, I will not refuse. Thank you for your generous gift!" "As for cooperation... Uncle Dou, you will contact Secretary Liu on our side. If you need cooperation from other managers, just tell them directly!" "Yes!" Dou Changhe agreed. Yu Wanli clapped his hands. "Zhou'er's injury has been cured, and we have a partner like the Lu family. Today is a double happiness, and we must celebrate! I have ordered people to prepare a banquet, and I must have a few drinks with you two tonight!"

"Don't rush to drink... Regarding your son's injury, I want to tell President Yu a few words alone. I wonder if President Yu can have a word with me?"

Yu Wanli was stunned.

"Even so... Liu Chang, you take Mr. Dou to the banquet hall first and entertain him well. I will chat with Mr. Lu for a few words and then go over."

"Yes... Mr. Dou, please come this way."

The rest of the servants also left, leaving only Lu Yu and Yu Wanli in the room.

Yu Wanli said anxiously: "Mr. Lu, could it be that my Zhou'er's injury will recur?"

"President Yu, don't worry, as long as you take good care of your son and rest for a period of time, his body will definitely recover... But about the origin of your son's injury, if I don't explain it to President Yu, I'm afraid President Yu will be kept in the dark..."

"Oh? Mr. Lu, please tell me!"

"I heard that your son's injury was caused by cultivation and obsession, is it true?"

"That's right, is there something wrong?"

"I have checked carefully, your son's qi is turbid and his mind is dirty, his pulse is deep and his consciousness is shallow. I'm afraid that before he was obsessed, he had already been poisoned, and it was most likely caused by this poison."

Yu Wanli was stunned and looked at Lu Yu in surprise.

"Mr. Are you sure?"

Lu Yu nodded slowly.

"Do you know what kind of poison it is?"

"I have never seen this kind of poison before, so I don't know its name, but judging from the pharmacology of the poison, the person who poisoned it must be highly skilled and proficient in the art of alchemy... This person has sinister intentions, and it won't work this time. I’m afraid it will happen again, and President Yu must be careful.”

Yu Wanli's eyes looked uncertain, and he thought for a long time before speaking again.

"Thank you sir for telling me."

"Next month is the Four Counties Martial Arts Competition. With Mr. Lu's skills, he will definitely participate."

"According to past practice, before each Four-County Martial Arts Competition, the four major states and counties will jointly hold a treasure tasting conference, inviting major chambers of commerce, sects, and celebrities from all over the world to participate."

"Firstly, it is to purchase treasures as ranking prizes for the four-county martial arts competition, and secondly, it is to provide each contestant with an opportunity to supplement their own weapons."

"This treasure tasting conference will be held in Wuyang County in seven days. The Wanhe Chamber of Commerce has been working in Jiangzuo for many years. It is a bit thin and has secured several VIP places."

"Yu Mou implores the young master to attend this grand meeting as a distinguished guest of the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce. If the young master takes a fancy to any rare treasures at the meeting, he can buy them. All the expenses can be advanced by the association..."

Lu Yu was stunned, unable to keep up with Yu Wanli's thinking.

Weren't we just talking about his son's poisoning? Why did he suddenly mention the treasure tasting conference?

"Yu has only one request."

Yu Wanli's eyes flickered, and finally he spoke in a deep voice about the connection between the two.

"The Treasure Appraisal Conference is a gathering of wind and clouds. The person who poisoned Zhou'er must also be present at this conference. I hope to use Mr. Lu's superb medical skills to find clues to the person who poisoned her."

"I wonder what you think, Master?"

That’s how it turns out…

Only then did Lu Yu understand.

Frankly speaking, this matter is not without risks. The person who dares to poison the young master of Wanhe Chamber of Commerce must have a lot of background. If he helps Yu Wanli, he may completely offend him.

But it is not without its benefits. In this way, the relationship between the Lu family's third room and the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce will undoubtedly become closer, and they will be completely tied to the same chariot from now on.

How to decide on this matter was an obvious matter for Lu Yu, who was completely destitute at this time.

After a moment, Lu Yu had a decision in his heart.

He smiled and met Yu Wanli's gaze.

"Then, we will see you in Wuyang County in seven days."
