In the evening, Tigerback Town was full of drunkenness. In the daytime, Tigerback Town was also very boisterous.
Those doctors who failed in Tigerback Mountain and those who wanted to seek medical treatment from Bian Heng in Tigerback Mountain almost gathered together.
As for those doctors, now that they couldn't go to Tigerback Mountain for the time being, they might as well treat patients and improve their medical skills and experience by making some money.
As for those people who failed in seeking medical treatment from Bian Heng, they might find a way by showing their medical skills to others as there were too many doctors in Tigerback Mountain. Although two heads were better than Zhuge Liang in Motian Realm, they were more or less confident with their wisdom.
The two parties hit it off. Therefore, besides numerous inns, the entire Tigerback Town also had a huge and vigorous medical industry.
There were many public medical centers in town. Those public medical centers were a bit like tea rooms. If people who came to the town to learn medicine wanted to see a doctor, they could go to any public medical center to see a doctor. Those who came here to see a doctor could also go to those public medical centers to see a doctor.
In public medical centers, doctors and patients could move freely. Doctors could "sit on the table" in any medical center; patients could also seek medical treatment from any doctor in any medical center. Only by charging some room and tea fees, the owner of the medical center could rent all the tables in the public medical center to those doctors.
In Tigerback Town, many public medical centers were "sitting on the table" with more than one doctor. These doctors were all familiar with each other. In normal days, they would discuss and learn medical skills together in Tigerback Town. When they met patients, they would consult with each other. If they met a difficult disease, they would even communicate with each other and negotiate with each other.
In the daytime, the atmosphere in Tigerback Town was really good. Although Bian Heng didn't go down Tigerback Mountain, his disciples would go down Tigerback Mountain by turns and communicate with the doctors in Tigerback Town. Zhang Tie estimated that Tigerback Mountain and Tigerback Town were simply like a university or an academy with a very strong learning atmosphere. Here, there were many medical students from all over Motian Realm. Additionally, there were various patients and strange diseases. On top of that, there was the No. 1 medical doctor in Motian Realm.
Even though those who came to Tigerback Town couldn't enter Tigerback Mountain, as long as they could stay in Tigerback Town for a few years and communicate with people around them and treat patients, they would definitely learn more and gain more experience in Tigerback Town than in any other place.
As for many patients who came to Tigerback Town, even though they couldn't enter Tigerback Mountain, they could also meet people who could cure them in Tigerback Town; especially those with strange diseases. As long as they came to Tigerback Town for a couple of days, almost all the doctors across the town would know about their diseases. If they could communicate with each other, they might have some sparks of wisdom.
After taking a look around Tigerback Town, Zhang Tie even doubted that everything in Tigerback Town might be what Bian Heng wanted. Although Bian Heng was eccentric and a bit cold sometimes, he had the potential of being cold-faced but kind-hearted. Without Bian Heng's acquiescence, his disciples would never come to Tigerback Town to practice medical skills and communicate with people by turns.
…
As Zhang Tie wandered in Tigerback Town, he watched the boisterous scene in the public medical center of Tigerback Town and paid attention to Tang Mei's carriage. Meanwhile, he paid attention to whether there were any eye-catching figures in Tigerback Town. Now that Versatile Demon Emperor might have guessed that Zhang Tie would come to Tigerback Mountain for medical treatment, Zhang Tie would never treat such a possible threat lightly.
However, Zhang Tie was not sure whether Versatile Demon Emperor would dispatch people here. Additionally, he didn't know whether the powerful defense system in Emperor NvWa City could discover the puppets being controlled by Golden-Soul Rune Virus. Therefore, Zhang Tie could only be careful.
If Versatile Demon Emperor really dispatched people here to kill him, Zhang Tie estimated that it would be useless to dispatch ordinary sage-level knights besides the four branch heads of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace. Therefore, Zhang Tie only needed to pay attention to the sage-level knights nearby Tigerback Mountain.
…
After circling around Tigerback Town for a long time, Zhang Tie didn't see any eye-catching figures. However, he caught sight of Tang Mei's carriage parked outside an inn called Anlai Courtyard. The flying lizard that was pulling the carriage was tied in the lizard room outside the inn.
Zhang Tie estimated that Tang Mei's group lived here. After looking around the inn, Zhang Tie was going to enter it. Unimaginably, the moment he arrived at the door, he saw Aunt Wu walking out of there with a bamboo basket in her hand.
"Aunt Wu, what a coincidence. Do you live here?"
"Ahh, Mister Jin!" At the sight of Zhang Tie, Aunt Wu became stunned for a second. Closely after that, she glanced at Zhang Tie's high-class clothes. Closely after that, she became vigilant as she watched Zhang Tie as if he was a thief, "Mister Jin, do you live nearby?"
Of course, Zhang Tie didn't live nearby. Meanwhile, he understood Aunt Wu's meaning — — If you don't live nearby, why are you wandering around here? What's your intention?
"Ahem, ahem … I don't live nearby. I'm especially here for Miss Tang!"
Aunt Wu's face turned cold at once as she glanced at Zhang Tie from his head to his toe once again. Closely after that, she said icily, "Our miss has already left. I'm going to buy vegetables to cook for her. Childe, you'd better go back. Childe, you should know that our miss is here for medical treatment. As she's inconvenient, she's inconvenient to meet guests in normal times. Additionally, her illness has to be treated. If there's nothing urgent, please don't disturb our miss."
Zhang Tie said with a smile, "If Miss Tang is not here, Aunt Wu could also stay here!"
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, Aunt Wu's face turned red at once out of fury. Closely after that, she raised her bamboo basket and smashed it towards Zhang Tie's head, revealing her natural temperament as a shrewd middle-aged woman, "You little b * stard! How dare you hit this mother? When this mother breastfed her, you were still wearing open-crotch pants. I will beat you to death …"
Aunt Wu directly started to beat Zhang Tie with a bamboo basket at the gate of the courtyard.
Zhang Tie hurriedly dodged away.
Watching Aunt Wu's arched eyebrows, Zhang Tie became confused. 'What's wrong with this woman? When did I hit on her? Does she think that I want to … F * ck!'
Aunt Wu's beating of Zhang Tie with a bamboo basket aroused the attention of all the people on the roadside.
"Aunt Wu, you misunderstood me. I have something to ask you …" Zhang Tie said as he caught the bamboo basket that Aunt Wu threw towards him.
After struggling for a short while, Aunt Wu found that she couldn't break free from Zhang Tie's grasp. Therefore, she just watched Zhang Tie dubiously as she said in an icy tone, "What do you want to ask me …"
After throwing a glance at the onlookers, Zhang Tie drew Aunt Wu to one side, saying, "I saw Uncle Guan at the foot of Tigerback Mountain yesterday. However, Uncle Guan didn't seem to have a good time yesterday. I want to ask Miss Tang about her disease!"
Aunt Wu replied with an unbelievable look, "It's useless. Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking about. Don't think that I don't know about Miss Tang's illness from you. I suggest you give up …"
"After Uncle Guan left yesterday, I found a job in Tigerback Mountain. I could see Bian Heng. I want to ask Bian Heng about Miss Tang's illness. If there's an opportunity, I will ask Bian Heng about how to cure Miss Tang's illness. Perhaps, Bian Heng could point out a bright way for Miss Tang …"
Aunt Wu became stunned as she changed her face a bit. However, she was still a bit doubtful as she asked, "Is that true? You really found a job in Tigerback Mountain?"
"Of course!"
"But I was told that all those who could enter Tigerback Mountain, even those who do odd jobs in the mountain, are selected medical doctors?" Aunt Wu was not stupid as she asked Zhang Tie at once.
"I'm not working on the mountain. Precisely, I'm looking after a fishery for Tigerback Mountain. I'm not even an odd job. Therefore, it's fine even if I don't learn medical science. Look at my clothes. They were given to me by the general steward …" Zhang Tie said as he pointed at his clothes.
Aunt Wu finally believed in Zhang Tie's words a bit as she became bashful at once, saying, "I'm sorry, Master Jin. I thought you were like those people before. Please forgive me … can you really see Bian Heng?"
"Yes, I can. I saw him yesterday. However, I couldn't see him often. It depends on the opportunity. Bian Heng's temperament is a bit weird. I think if I stay on the mountain for a long time, I might have a chance to talk to him …"
She doesn't suffer from a common disease, but a rare meridian called Five-Yin Meridian. Miss didn't discover this meridian when she was young. It gradually manifested after she turned 18. In the beginning, our family members thought it was a disease. Later on, after seeing many doctors, we knew that Miss suffered from Five-Yin Meridian. Those who knew it all said that people with this meridian couldn't live past 40 years old and had no offspring. Our Miss has always been kind since she was young. She didn't even dare to trample an ant to death. She always did things for the good of others. How could she suffer from this disease … "
Aunt Wu said with a worried look as her eyes turned a bit moist …
'Five-yin meridian?' As it was Zhang Tie's first time to hear about this disease, he slightly frowned as he asked, "I wonder about Miss Tang's symptoms when her disease breaks out …"
"Now, when this terminated meridian flares up, Young Miss will feel weak all over. She coughs weakly, and her entire body will feel cold. It happens almost once a day, and it flares up regularly. In the past, it would only last for half an incense stick of time, but in the past year, the duration of the flares up has been increasing …
"Fine, I see. When there's a chance, I will definitely ask Miss Tang about how to cure her disease!"
"Thank you so much, Master Jin!" Aunt Wu watched Zhang Tie gratefully. Just now, she had misunderstood Zhang Tie; however, when she found that Zhang Tie was really here for one question, even if he didn't want to meet Miss, Aunt Wu completely changed her opinion about Zhang Tie.
"Will Miss Tang leave Tigerback Town right away?"
"No, she won't. After leaving Tigerback Town, our miss would not find any other way. This is her only hope. Therefore, we will stay here for a long time. Even if we couldn't see Bian Heng in Tigerback Town, we could find someone else to cure her disease. We've already booked a courtyard in this inn. We will live here from then on …"
"Fine, I will come for you when I get the news …" Zhang Tie said as he prepared to leave.
"Ahh, Master Jin, are you leaving? How about waiting here for a while? I will go to buy vegetables and cook. I'm afraid that Miss Tang will come back after a short while. Master Jin … have a meal before you leave …" Aunt Wu said as she watched Zhang Tie bashfully.
"Sorry to bother you, Aunt Wu. I'm going back too …" Zhang Tie said as he waved his hand towards Aunt Wu and left, leaving Aunt Wu standing at the gate of the courtyard and watching Zhang Tie's back in a daze.
After a long while, Aunt Wu let out a sigh faintly as she walked towards the nearby vegetable market with the bamboo basket …
