Bab 240: Slippery Sage

In consideration of Doctor Lou's dislike for strangers in his space, the Emperor sent Commander An to come to go get the old man. Since they were already familiar, the Emperor hoped the old man will be more welcoming and more compliant.

Commander An arrived at Doctor Lou's pharmacy to find doors open for business as usual, but the counter was empty. He tried calling for the Doctor but received no response. In the end, after waiting for a while, Commander An told the two men who accompanied to wait in the shop while he went into the house to search for the old man. 

Commander An walked into the courtyard to see Doctor Lou lying on the ground in the pavilion.

Commander An immediately rushed over, worried that something had happened to the old man. Only for him to crouch down and turn the old man over to find him clutching a jar of wine and snoozing away with a happy smile on his face.
