“Wait. Mr. Ji, did you…”
Reverend Yideng seemed to realize something, and he looked at Ji Ye beside him.
“Sorry, Senior Ying, for having lied to you. Reverend Cien was indeed very severely injured, but my treatment was enough to save his life.
“But he was too determined to die to notice it.”
Ji Ye nodded at Reverend Yideng with a smile.
“Reverend Cien, I hope you don’t mind me saying something.
“You’ve been studying Buddhist doctrine, and I believe you know that to make up for a mistake, one way is to ask for forgiveness, but there’s another way. You can accumulate virtue and do good deeds to make up for the past wrong-doings.
“Right now, the whole Yuan kingdom is ready to besiege Xiangyang City. Once the city is breached, hundreds of thousands of residents inside will all be killed. You have profound knowledge in both Buddhist doctrine and martial arts skills. If you can try to stop this disaster of Xiangyang City for the people of Song and the residents of Dali, even if you can only save a few innocent people, it will be a very virtuous deed!”
Ji Ye told Qiu Qianren, who seemed to be considering if he should kill himself.
“Ah, Master Ji has a good point.
“Reverend Cien, since Senior Ying and Senior Old Kid have forgiven you, why are you still fixated on the idea of dying? As pleasant as the Western Paradise sound, you’ll achieve an even greater outcome after you accumulated more merits in this world.”
Yang Guo couldn’t agree more with Ji Ye’s words.
He believed that he had done wrong things in his youth.
That was why he had never visited Xiangyang City once in the past decade. Subconsciously, he was avoiding Guo Jing and Huang Rong and made it up by doing heroic deeds.
After all, Qiu Qianren was a martial arts expert second to the Five Greats only. If he really could go help his “Uncle Guo” in Xiangyang City, it would greatly relieve the pressure on the city.
Even Reverend Yideng looked slightly moved.
He was a monk and was no longer concerned with the secular world.
But after all, he was the king of Dali once, and the kingdom had been destroyed by the Yuan army, who killed and burned along their way.
Even Qiu Qianren was severely injured by a lord of Yuan when he tried to gather information for Yideng, so it was only natural that he felt a little emotional when the subject was brought up.
Moreover, the people of the Yuan kingdom were known for their toughness. When they encountered resistance during an attack on a city, they would usually lash out by killing everyone in the city after they broke through the defense.
During the past decade, countless Yuan soldiers died outside Xiangyang City, so if the army did breach the city this time, it would be like Ji Ye had predicted. They would kill every soldier and civilian inside.
“Cien, I’ll leave the choice to you.”
Reverend Yideng said to his pupil when Cien opened his eyes.
“I will go to Xiangyang!”
After some hesitation, Qiu Qianren agreed.
Of course, he wouldn’t go there just yet. Although Ji Ye had treated his injury, it would be some time before he could fully recover.
“I’ll never be able to repay you enough for what you did. Please take these foxes.”
That was a happy ending.
Elated, Aunt Ying picked up the two foxes and handed them to Ji Ye and Yang Guo, as she had promised.
“I wasn’t planning to take them away from you.
“But the two foxes are really useful to the Twin Dragon Mount.
“Here’s a bottle of ‘spiritual milk”, which can prolong life and rejuvenate people. It can turn white hair black and restore your youthful look. Senior Ying, if you like, I’ll give it to you in exchange for the foxes.”
Ji Ye took a glass bottle out of his Void Ring. The bottle contained some Stone Milk mixed with Sweet Dew.
“Aw, aw…”
The foxes were extremely unwilling to leave their old master and go with Ji Ye at first, especially the one that had been caught by Ji Ye once. It bared its teeth at him.
However, when they smelled the mixture in the bottle, their eyes lit up, and they looked very tempted.
“Well…”
Judging from the reaction of her pets, Aunt Ying knew that Ji Ye was offering her something incredible.
Moreover, after seeing all the unbelievable things Ji Ye had done, she had no doubt of what he had said.
It was a wonderful medicine that could rejuvenate and restore one’s appearance!
Because of the loss of her child and the series of events afterward, her hair had turned white prematurely, and she had lived most of her life looking like an old lady. She almost looked less than a human. The Old Kid, on the other hand, was nearly 100 years old but looked in his 60s or 70s only, because of his temperament and the achievement of his martial arts.
Now that they could put things behind them, she became concerned with her appearance after the initial delight.
All women would want a chance to get their youth back, even if just part of it.
However, she had made her promise that she would give Ji Ye the pair of foxes if he and Yang Guo could bring Zhou Botong here.
She found it inappropriate to accept Ji Ye’s thing now.
“Wait, I didn’t know you had such amazing things. It smells even better than the Jade Bee Honey that Little Dragon Maiden taught me to make!
“Little Brother Ji, how about this? You give me that bottle, and I’ll give you something in exchange.”
Seeing that Aunt Ying hesitated despite her excitement, Zhou Botong had an idea.
So he stared at the bottle and spoke to Ji Ye.
The Old Kid might be as innocent as a child, but he wasn’t blunt. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have achieved so greatly in martial arts.
“But I don’t have anything on me… How about I teach you some martial arts skills?”
Zhou Botong told Ji Ye after he patted around his pocket and found nothing that he could exchange with Ji Ye for the spiritual liquid.
His eyes then lit up, and he had an idea.
“I’m giving it to Senior Ying as a gift. Senior Old Kid, you don’t need to teach me anything in exchange.”
Ji Ye shook his head and smiled.
The projection of heroes really had some character.
He had expected that it would take him some time to do some missions before he could learn a move or two from them, but the Old Kid had just offered to make an exchange.
Of course, it also had something to do with the Old Kid’s disposition.
However, Ji Ye wouldn’t have said yes, because that would be too obvious.
Instead, he handed the bottle to the Old Kid with a smile so that he could show it off in front of the elated Aunt Ying.
“I admire your medical skill so much, Master Ji!”
As a fellow expert doctor, Reverend Yideng sighed in amazement.
Qiu Qianren was so severely injured that theoretically, he was beyond saving, but Ji Ye was able to bring him back, and that alone was amazing enough.
According to Yang Guo, Ji Ye had saved some incurable patients of the Manor of Beasts as well, and with the incredible medicine he had just produced, Qiu Qianren had to be impressed.
“I’m only a novice doctor, and I was able to cure those men mainly because I have a special skill!” Ji Ye said “humbly”.
He had indeed depended on his Healing talent, but he did know some medical theory.
After summoning Yan Qing, he learned True Seer from him, and he learned his medical skill from An Daoquan later.
Moreover, Ji Ye had also learned from Meng Kang his boat-building technique, from Ling Zhen his cannon skill, as well as Yang Zhi’s saber skill, Lu Junyi’s stick skill, and Tang Long’s forging skill.
But he was worried that he might not master all skills if he learned too many at a time, so he only noted the skills down without studying them deeply.
Of course, with his Fusion talent, if he wanted to learn them, it would be very efficient.
Especially in medical skills. Not only would he be able to fuse them directly, but because of his Healing talent, he would also be able to detect all physical information in the person he treated.
Strictly speaking, if he wanted to pursue a medical career, he would make much faster progress than Shang Yan, who wanted to become An Daoquan’s pupil.
In fact, he had used the Healing talent when he treated Shi the Third and Qiu Qianren. While he was at it, he studied the way their inner strength worked.
Because the information he obtained this way couldn’t be transformed into actual skills, he wasn’t able to fuse them, and he could only use it as a reference to his own cultivation.
“In fact, the Hundred Flowers Valley where Senior Zhou lives has a lot of spiritual medicine as well. Because of the geological location, spiritual essence gathered there, turning it into a blessed land and making it very habitable. That was also the reason that Senior Zhou seems to be getting younger.”
Ji Ye pointed at Zhou Botong, whose beard used to be all white but was a little blacker now.
Ji Ye had noticed before that not only did Aunt Ying’s Black Dragon Swamp had some special properties, but the Hundred Flowers Valley that Zhou Botong lived in was also incredible. In it grew many Extraordinary plants such as fleece-flower root, Poria cocos, and hundred-year-old ginseng.
Moreover, the Black Dragon Swamp, the Manor of Beasts, and the Hundred Flowers Valley were all secluded locations.
Even someone like Elder Meng, who knew the book well, wasn’t able to find these places easily, which was why they had to follow the plot.
That was probably an obstacle set by the power of providence of the Yuan side.
Of course, Zhou Botong hadn’t been able to stay young just because of the special objects in the Hundred Flowers Valley, but it was also because he was already one of the Five Greats.
Moreover, he had stayed genuine the entire time. Throughout his life, he didn’t know what worry or sorrow was, which fitted the health preservation principle of Daoism. Therefore, the older he became, the more high-spirited he looked.
“Is that so? I know nothing about medicine…
“Well, Brother Ji, why don’t you go with us to the Hundred Flowers Valley? I’ll show you how I control the bees…”
The Old Kid seemed glad to hear that.
After darting around, he had an idea.
“That’s great. The Hundred Flowers Valley will be a great place for Reverend Cien to recover, while I can make the medicine for Brother Yang.
Ji Ye could guess what Zhou Botong was thinking.
He wanted to invite Reverend Yideng and Ji Ye, the two doctors, to his place.
For one, they would become his playmates. For another, the two of them could help Aunt Ying with her recovery.
Ji Ye couldn’t wait to go there.
Because the hero conference and the war of Xiangyang wouldn’t start until a while later.
The main target for the Twin Dragon Mount now was to make friends with the experts in the Battlefield of Providence to improve their capability.
Moreover, the Hundred Flowers Valley contained rare medicines such as the hundred-year-old ginseng, which he could find a way to fuse and take out.
After all, the Twin Dragon Mount was on an island. Even An Daoquan, the expert doctor, couldn’t do much because of the lack of materials.
“It’s getting late today. Let’s stay overnight at the Manor of Beasts and go to the Hundred Flowers Valley tomorrow. How’s that?”
It was already dark outside and too late to head for the Hundred Flowers Valley.
Moreover, Ji Ye had something to do as well.
After entering the Battlefield of Providence for a day and a half, the Cooldown time of his Fusion talent was finally over.
