Tenglong Villa.

An ancient Chinese-style villa with red bricks and green tiles is hidden in the deepest part of Tenglong Villa. Its eaves can be vaguely seen through the neat trees and sea of ​​flowers.

This is the core of the Sinclair family, the real Tenglong residence. All the secrets and elixir recipes are hidden in the underground vault here, and those who can live here are the head of the past generations.

In the early morning, the quiet Tenglong Residence suddenly became noisy, and lights were turned on, illuminating the entire villa.

Timber Sinclair, who was wearing pajamas, walked out of the bedroom with an angry face and looked at the busy servants below, furious.

"Why don't you just die? You just woke up again."Timber Sinclair glanced at a closed room on the third floor and gritted his teeth.

The person living in this room was Timber Sinclair 's father, the previous generation the head of the Sinclair family , Aldan Sinclair.

the Sinclair family is also an heirloom of medicine and has its own medical skills for maintaining the body. the head of the Sinclair family family have long lifespans, and the previous the head, Aldan Sinclair, is one of the leaders.

Aldan Sinclair is now eighty-three years old. If it were not for the unknown toxin that caused brain atrophy and long-term coma, and could only wake up for a period of time occasionally, the head of the Sinclair family family would not have been passed on to Elara Sinclair's father, let alone Today's Timber Sinclair.

"Sir, I'll let you in." An old servant who was taking care of Aldan Sinclair walked to Timber Sinclair's side softly and said softly.

Timber Sinclair could only put away the hatred in his heart, and reluctantly put on a gentle smile on his face.

Aldan Sinclair is the ancestor of the Sinclair family and the backer of the Sinclair family today. Even though the old man is often in a coma and may not wake up even once a month, after all, he has been running the Sinclair Group for decades, and his personal connections are not comparable to that of Timber Sinclair. .

As long as the old man is alive, with these connections, relationships, and face, there will be no obstacles to the Sinclair family's business. Once the old man is gone, how much of the old friendship will be left?

Although Timber Sinclair has been working in the group to make profits for his small family, he also knows that if the skin is gone, the hair will remain.

"Dad, you've obviously been sleeping for longer and longer. Why don't you get more rest? What made you so fussy?" With a flattering smile on his face, Timber Sinclair walked to Aldan Sinclair's window and said softly.

"Do you think I'm old and stupid? You can deceive me by being asleep for a long time?"Aldan Sinclair is over eighty years old. Except for his hair which is completely white, his whole body is very strong and his face is red. It is completely invisible. A hint of morbidity.

Squinting his eyes, Aldan Sinclair's voice was a little cold.

As the former the head of the Sinclair family family and the helmsman of the Sinclair Group, Aldan Sinclair had his own news channels even in Tenglong Villa. Even if he had just woken up, he immediately knew what had happened recently.

"Dad, don't listen to other people's nonsense! Who in the entire the Sinclair family can deceive you?"Timber Sinclair said quickly.

"Your eldest brother is dead. Elara and Oceana are already very pitiful, but what have you done? Elara's follow-up maintenance fees have been stopped, and Oceana even went to the Stanton family for consultation. Is it possible that our Tang family even has its own granddaughter?" Can’t feed you?”

"Looking at your sons and daughters, all of them are well-dressed and well-fed. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"

Timber Sinclair squinted his eyes and looked out the door with a hint of murderous intent.

The old man had only been awake for half an hour, and everything that had happened in the past half month was already clear to him. This made him a little scared, but also very angry.

"Dad, things are not what you think. Oceana wants to be independent. After all, she came back from overseas. If I want to suppress him, she will not be able to enter the Stanton family's hospital. The sisters are older and have their own ideas. I am the head now, but I can’t interfere with her.”

"As for Elara, she was implicated by her husband, Machina Hartwell, that white-eyed wolf. Our the Sinclair family provided for his food, accommodation, and research on elixirs, but he was not satisfied and stole the Sinclair family's elixirs. , I just expelled him from Tenglong Villa, which is already pretty good, but for Elara’s sake, I would have expelled him from the Sinclair family."

Timber Sinclair unconsciously brought out his own momentum. He did not want to completely surrender to his father.

Aldan Sinclair just looked at his second son quietly, as if he didn't recognize him.

"Dad! This is true, the evidence is solid."

Being stared at by his father, Timber Sinclair felt weak for no reason, but he still spoke forcefully.

After three to five minutes, Aldan Sinclair sighed heavily.

Aldan Sinclair admired Machina Hartwell very much and knew Machina Hartwell's talent, but...

Talents are rare, but it is absolutely not allowed for the entire the Sinclair family to fall apart because of one Machina Hartwell .

Of course Aldan Sinclair knew that his son was lying, but he saw Timber Sinclair's toughness and after careful consideration, he still compromised.

"Elara is your niece, and Machina Hartwell has not left the Sinclair family. What happened before happened, the Sinclair family needs talents, and Machina Hartwell needs to continue to win over her."

Aldan Sinclair's tone was not an order, but a tone of discussion, but it was also decisive. A compromise was a compromise, but he could not let Timber Sinclair completely let himself go.

His own children knew that Aldan Sinclair was really worried about Timber Sinclair being in charge of the Sinclair Group, but in comparison, his other sons and daughters were even more miserable.

Aldan Sinclair couldn't help but feel a little sad.

"Is the Tang family really going to decline?"

"Don't worry, old man!"Timber Sinclair smiled. He felt his father's compromise. "Sirena will celebrate his birthday next weekend. The family members will all come back. I will inform Oceana to bring Machina Hartwell back and expel Tenglong. The Villa allows him not to live here, but he is still a member of the Tang family after all."

"That's it!"Aldan Sinclair closed his eyes and waved his hand.

Now that Timber Sinclair has compromised, Aldan Sinclair can no longer pursue him, but...

Aldan Sinclair knew that the grandson-in-law he liked would probably leave the Sinclair family forever.

Thinking of the child who was immersed in experiments and working tirelessly, thinking of the child who talked to him all night long and had profound knowledge of Chinese medicine, Aldan Sinclair sighed heavily in his heart.

In the locust tree.

This is a slum area in Nanzhou City. The construction of the houses is in a mess. Many of them have mottled red bricks. The streets are even more chaotic. If outsiders come here, it may be difficult to get out.

A foreigner once lived here for three years, but in the end he got lost and couldn't find his home. Therefore, this place is also called Bagua Lane, which is said to be even more confusing than the Bagua Array.

Machina Hartwell's home is on the only main street in this locust tree.

The old-fashioned mottled two-story building is full of traces of historical vicissitudes. On the lintel at the door, a simple plaque hangs there.

"Remain!"

There is only one big Chinese character on the whole plaque, but if you are an old neighbor on this street, everyone knows that this is the real Yu Family Clinic.

Machina Hartwell sat quietly in the bedroom on the second floor, meditating cross-legged and imitating the blood soldier's usual appearance in his mind.

Perhaps because of his induction, Machina Hartwell felt that the blood in his body began to boil as soon as he sat down. The medicine that he had just taken to replenish qi and strengthen energy instantly vaporized and blended directly into his blood.

The blood was boiling, and traces of essence condensed out, gathering towards the bloody soldiers.

Waves of weakness came again, Machina Hartwell did not give up. He knew that this was his foundation, the blood soldier, which was the foundation for his rise.

It took half an hour for Machina Hartwell to finally listen.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Machina Hartwell grimaced and looked at the Qi-building decoction that Delma brought again.

Fortunately, even after three years in the Sinclair family's Tenglong Villa, his old house had not changed much, and the medicinal materials in stock were well preserved. Only then did Machina Hartwell have the strength to supplement himself with the medicine to replenish Qi and strengthen energy.

You must know that this prescription only uses two roots of century-old wild ginseng, which is the accumulation of two generations of the Yu family. Otherwise, the prescription will be empty, and Machina Hartwell does not have the financial resources to supplement his body with medicine.

"Last resort."

Looking at the decoction in front of him, Machina Hartwell sighed in his heart and worried about the future.

The decoction will cost hundreds of thousands.

What's more, century-old mountain ginseng is something that can only be found but cannot be found. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it. Machina Hartwell knows that his plan to supplement the body with medicine cannot be carried out for a long time.

It has been three days. For three days, Machina Hartwell has been delivering some of the essence in Varden body every day. Two hundred-year-old mountain roots and other precious medicinal materials are added to the decoction, which is enough for him to make up for his losses.

Of course, the effect of this decoction is too domineering, that is, Machina Hartwell, if it were anyone else, even a strong man, his blood vessels would burst and die after drinking it.

Drink medicine, fuse, qi, and replenish blood soldiers.

After half an hour, Machina Hartwell finally breathed out, and his whole body finally recovered.

The blood soldier in his mind also grew up a little. Of course, he didn't really grow up, but he was more powerful than before.

Before Machina Hartwell opened his eyes, he heard a loud noise coming from downstairs.

Frowning slightly, Machina Hartwell just stood up when Delma walked in quickly.

"Machina, here comes an emergency room. The person is almost out of breath. The patient's family said he was poisoned."Delma's description was very accurate, which made Machina Hartwell very satisfied.

Since returning from Xiaohao Hospital, Delma and his family of three directly helped Machina Hartwell clean up the old house and moved in.

Delma, wearing a white coat, is a completely free nurse, while Varden has become a security guard.

Machina Hartwell was a little embarrassed to let a soldier king act as a security guard for his small clinic, but he couldn't persuade these two people, so that was it.

For three days, no patient has come to the clinic, which also allowed Machina Hartwell to take such a long rest for the first time in several years.

Walking downstairs quickly, Machina Hartwell saw the patients on stretchers in the clinic hall at a glance.

His face was ashen, and the black and green aura seemed to be leaving his face and overflowing.

His eyes turned white, and his whole body was trembling slightly, but his chest didn't rise much.

Even a medical student can tell that a patient is poisoned without any experience.

It's just... Machina Hartwell felt a familiar breath.

It is medical ethics to put patients first.

Machina Hartwell walked over quickly, grabbed the patient's wrist, and pretended to check the pulse, but with a thought, the blood soldier rushed directly into the patient's body along his right hand.

Huh!

After just a few breaths, Machina Hartwell retracted his arm in surprise.

Poisoning, definitely poisoning, but this poisoning is just like Xiaohao Hospital, the same toxin, the same poison.
