Heavenly Cloud City, Tenryū Province.
People came and went in an unending stream. Heavenly Cloud City could be said to be the busiest city he had passed along the way. The further in he went, the more crowded it was. Ye Wuchen had a feeling of returning to Heavenly Dragon City.
"In less than a week, we should arrive at Fiery Dragon City. Fairy Dream, I don't really want to know where you came from and where you are going, but even if you really are a fairy, we still have to settle accounts. You've been with us for a whole eleven days. During this time, your food, drinks, and lodging have all depended on me. Every meal is top-notch delicacies, and there's also my one and only Ye's Barbecue. You're living in the softest bed. Since we're already very familiar with each other, I'll just charge you twenty taels of silver a day. Eleven days is two hundred and twenty taels of silver. I saved your life twice, three hundred thousand taels for each time … Why are you staring at me? Do you think your life is worthless? That's right, you are a fairy. Alright, ten million taels for each time, twenty million taels for the second time. This adds up to twenty million two hundred and twenty taels of silver. Forget it, I will be more generous. Forget the small change, let's make it twenty million taels. I will not count the money for changing your medicine and gauze, as well as the rent for riding my leather horse … When we arrive at Fiery Dragon City, you must pay me back every cent, otherwise, don't even think about slipping away from our hands. "
Ye Wuchen calculated the accounts with an unscrupulous face. Meng Zhi clenched her teeth and said nothing, letting him ramble on. These days, she had been teased and teased by him in various ways. Every time, it would make her heart, which she had managed to calm down with great difficulty, become chaotic. After many lessons, she finally learned to be smart. No matter what he said, she would keep her mouth shut, because the consequences of arguing were equivalent to adding fuel to the fire.
"Brother, there are so many people here, it's so noisy." Ningxue, who had slept for a while, raised her head from Ye Wuchen's arms and rubbed her sleepy eyes that had not yet fully opened.
"Well, there may be some kind of gathering here today, just like the competition in Heavenly Dragon City. These pedestrians wear all kinds of clothes, and you can often hear people exploring the road. They should be from other places. "Ye Wuchen said.
"Today is the Medical Competition of Heavenly Cloud City." Meng Zhi, who was leading the horse, took the initiative to speak up. It could be considered as a small retaliation against Ye Wuchen. Her foot injury has almost healed, so she doesn't need to ride a horse. Plus, Ye Wuchen made up the other day that women shouldn't ride horses, so she doesn't dare to ride a horse again. However, he was unwilling to abandon this rare precious horse, so the job of leading the horse fell into the hands of this fairy.
It had been more than ten days, and there was no chance at all. Besides … She stole a glance at Oculum, who was chewing on a piece of gummy candy. After knowing how terrifying she was, she knew that her chances of success were basically zero. Now, she couldn't even give up. She could only grit her teeth and follow them to Flame Dragon City. That was because Ye Wuchen wouldn't allow her, who was heavily in debt, to go far. If she didn't pay it off, she wouldn't be able to leave. In that case, her only choice was to follow them to Flame Dragon City and then escape.
"Medical Competition Association? Is it a medical competition? " Ye Wuchen looked bored, then asked suspiciously: "Fairy Meng, it's something that even I don't know. How could a fairy like you, who is going out for the first time, know?"
Meng Zhi turned her head away, not meeting his eyes: "Medical Competition Association is held once every five years. It's held in four countries at the same time. Tenryū Province is held in Heavenly Cloud City. There aren't many people who don't know. "
"Well … I'm not a doctor, it's completely normal not to know."
Ye Wuchen had no interest in this Medical Competition Association. Such a competition would attract many medical experts, but those real medical experts wouldn't show their faces in public to participate in this kind of competition, just like how real young experts wouldn't participate in Heavenly Dragon City's Outstanding Youth Selection. In his opinion, most of the people who participated in this competition should be people who made a living from medical shops. Once they became famous, business would naturally roll in.
Heavenly Cloud City's medical skills were famous all over the world. Every day, many people would travel thousands of miles to seek medical treatment. This was also the reason why Tenryū Province's Medical Competition Association was always held in Heavenly Cloud City. As Ye Wuchen expected, most of the people who participated in the competition were famous or unknown medical shops, and the rest were all kinds of solitary doctors.
There was a huge open-air square in the center of Heavenly Cloud City, and every Medical Competition Association was held here. At this time, this relatively large square was surrounded by people, but it didn't seem chaotic at all. Instead, it was orderly, leaving a passage in the east, west, north, and south to facilitate walking to the central high platform. When Ye Wuchen's group of four passed by here, the Medical Competition Association had just begun. A wizened old man with white hair, a grizzled beard, and almost all of his teeth had fallen out was shouting the opening speech at the top of his voice.
"… In order to promote the medical tradition of Heavenly Dragon Medicine, so that those who study medicine can better save the dying and heal the injured, and benefit the people … We finally welcome the forty-eighth Medical Competition Association …"
Ye Wuchen did not know what to make of the boring and meaningless lines. Just as they were about to bypass the flow of people, the wizened old man's next sentence made him stop in his tracks, and he turned back to look at the stage.
"… This time, we are fortunate to invite the Medicine Immortal, a leading figure in the medical world, to come and be our judge. The winner of this Medical Competition Association will not only receive the previous year's rewards, but will also receive ten days of personal guidance from the Medicine Immortal! "
As soon as his voice fell, an old man with a white haze all over his body sat up from his seat, and gestured with a calm face. The name "Medicine Immortal" immediately caused a lot of commotion in the crowd. Because this title could be said to reverberate like thunder in the ears of those who knew medicine and those who didn't.
Just now, Ye Wuchen didn't look at the stage, but when he turned around to look, he found that the old man was indeed the Medicine Immortal, Shui Nanhe.
"We just met in Heavenly Dragon City a few days ago, and now this old man actually appeared here. What an extraordinary coincidence. Could it be that he specially came from Heavenly Dragon City to participate in this Medical Competition Association? With his ability, why would he be interested in this kind of competition? " Ye Wuchen smiled in boredom, and just as he was about to leave, he felt that Shui Nanhe's gaze suddenly locked on him from afar. He knew that Shui Nanhe had unfortunately discovered him.
Shui Nanhe inadvertently discovered Ye Wuchen in the crowd, and was stunned at first, then he hurriedly stood up, and very ungracefully shouted on the stage, "Little brother! Little brother … little brother! "
Shui Nanhe's crazy fuss immediately made everyone's eyes follow his gaze to look at where Ye Wuchen was. Ye Wuchen had no choice but to put down Ningxue, and said in a low voice, "You guys stand here and don't move." Then he walked forward helplessly.
He tried his best to not let Meng Zhi and Oculum appear in too many people's sight. And with Oculum around, he wasn't worried about their safety, nor was he worried that Meng Zhi would run away.
Since he couldn't avoid it, then he would see what this old man wanted to do. Ye Wuchen didn't hesitate, and directly squeezed through the crowd, making Shui Nanhe heave a sigh of relief. The reason why he participated in this medical competition was to try and see if he could meet the mysterious woman from five years ago again. Now that he saw Ye Wuchen, he felt as if he had met an old friend in a foreign land. This old friend was one of the two people he admired the most, and it could be said that he was indebted to him for saving his life.
"How has Senior Medicine Immortal been recently? I didn't expect that after meeting in Heavenly Dragon City, we would meet again here after leaving one after the other. I have to say that this is a wonderful fate. " Ye Wuchen smiled from ear to ear, and walked up the stage as if there was no one else around. He greeted Shui Nanhe, and at the same time nodded to the other old men sitting there.
Shui Nanhe also said excitedly, "Originally, this old man thought that it would be difficult to see little brother in the future. I didn't expect to meet you so soon. This old man is really relieved." Then he lowered his voice and said, "You should be going to get the Heaven Extinguishing Fire Dragon Fruit, right?"
Although he already knew that Lin Xiu's poison was planted by Ye Wuchen, and the "medical skills" displayed on Lin Xiu were completely fake. But the few words before he saved Lin Xiu were enough to make him sincerely admire Ye Wuchen. Moreover, being able to plant and take back the "poison" that he couldn't do anything about, this in itself was already better than him. He didn't dare to forget someone who could beat him in medical skills, and he would definitely treat him with respect.
Ye Wuchen nodded slightly, and asked, "Senior Medicine Immortal, why are you here?"
"Hahahaha, this old man is looking for a miraculous person, but I didn't expect to meet a little brother who is even more miraculous than a miraculous person." He slightly raised his voice and said to the old man who was presiding over the medical competition, who didn't know why Ye Wuchen had come, "President Qin, this little brother's medical skills have reached perfection, and it's really unfathomable. In front of him, this old man can only concede defeat, and I'm sincerely convinced. If someone can get some pointers from him, then that person will truly be able to benefit from it for the rest of his life. "
His voice wasn't loud, but it seemed to have a kind of penetrating power, so that everyone present could hear it clearly. After Shui Nanhe finished speaking, he gave Ye Wuchen an imperceptible treacherous smile.
Three black lines appeared on Ye Wuchen's forehead, and he couldn't wait to cut this old man with his sword. Shui Nanhe was obviously still brooding over his previous rejection, and wanted to take this opportunity to really see his medical skills. The higher one's medical skills were, the more one desired to see higher medical skills. Shui Nanhe's action was obviously a disguised form of coercion. He slightly curled his lips, then suddenly turned his head, and met a gaze from the crowd. That gaze instantly avoided, but Ye Wuchen still clearly saw the owner of that gaze.
An unfamiliar face … Ye Wuchen's heart was filled with doubts. That gaze that suddenly became fervent, as if she had found her prey, what did it mean?
The densely packed crowd and the medical experts who were preparing to participate in the competition were originally commenting on this young man who suddenly went up on stage, and had a peerless appearance and temperament. When they heard Medicine Immortal's words, they were all shocked, and revealed a look of disbelief.
What was Medicine Immortal? Those who could come to watch the medical competition were mostly people who were proficient in medical skills, so how could they not know the weight of this resounding name. How could this kind of expert who stood at the peak of medical skills be someone who spoke irresponsibly? Could it be that this young man who looked less than 20 years old really had such amazing medical skills that even Medicine Immortal would concede defeat?
If Medicine Immortal did not personally say it, they would never believe it.
