"Huh?" Gu Yundong replied.
Little Six took a look at Tong Shuitao, who chuckled. "With Little Six’s small body and the fact that he has lost too much blood, let alone hiding someone, he can’t even move him. He’s even staggering. I hid him. When I sent Doctor Xiong over, I heard the commotion outside and quickly came in from the door of the shop in front to hide him."
Gu Yundong was enlightened. She had found it strange. Shao’s was not far from here. Why did it take Tong Shuitao so long to find someone?
She thought that Doctor Xiong was not in Shao’s pharmacy and Tong Shuitao had gone somewhere else to call for help.
It turned out that she had returned long ago.
"Where is he hiding?"
Tong Shuitao brought her to take a look and entered the door to the shop first. Then, she opened another door in the corner of the shop. Through that door, it was actually... the kitchen?
Gu Yundong was stunned. "Why is there a door here?"
Tong Shuitao did not know about this. Little Six had pointed it out to her.
At this moment, Doctor Xiong helped Little Six, who had been completely bandaged, over and explained, "This door originally existed, but the original landlord had no use for it, and the location was not good, so he installed a thin door to block it. Later, when Master rented it over and saw it, he asked the landlord if he could tear down that door, and the landlord agreed."
This door was well hidden. Moreover, because there was some fabric piled on the side of the counter, it was directly blocked.
On the other hand, Han Yao’s subordinate came in in a hurry and only took a rough look. Naturally, he did not notice that there was a door here.
Gu Yundong pushed the door open and walked in. She walked to the cellar in the kitchen.
Tong Shuitao opened the cellar and jumped down. Not long after, she carried that person up again.
The man was still unconscious. Tong Shuitao carried him to the house at the side. It was only when he was placed on the bed that she heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the blood on her body in disdain.
She had already dirtied her clothes after carrying him just now.
Fortunately, there was always a spare set of clothes in the carriage. It was fine if she went to change into it. Now that she was covered in blood, what should she do?
Gu Yundong laughed. "Alright, I’ll buy you a new set at the silk shop next door."
Tong Shuitao’s eyes lit up. "Miss, you’re too good to me."
Gu Yundong glanced sideways at her and happened to see Little Six’s envious gaze.
Doctor Xiong consciously sat by the bed and examined the man’s injuries. After a moment, he frowned. "This person’s injuries are a little serious. There are seven to eight wounds on his body, and two of them are fatal. Especially this arrowhead on his chest, we have to pull it out carefully. I’m not good at this. I have to find a doctor with brilliant medical skills as soon as possible."
"You mean..."
"How about Boss Shao or Old Master Bai?" Doctor Xiong said.
Other than these two, there was no suitable candidate. This person was an assassin, so it was not good to let outsiders know.
As for Bai Yong, Doctor Xiong still didn’t know his identity. Otherwise, he would definitely have blocked the entrance of the Shao Residence to ask for medical advice.
Previously, when he found out that Bai Hang’s medical skills were brilliant, he had pestered him for a few days.
Gu Yundong nodded. "Treat his wound first. I’ll go find someone."
She then instructed Tong Shuitao, "Keep an eye on this side. If you see an outsider, hide him in the cellar." Since it had come to this, that person had to be saved first.
"Understood, Miss."
Gu Yundong turned around and was about to leave the shop when there was some movement outside again.
