The meeting between Ouyang Shuo and Sun Bin was uneventful, and both the host and the guest were happy.
Since Sun Bin had the intention to become an official, he naturally wouldn't put on an act.
Ouyang Shuo was overjoyed when he heard this.
Yesterday, he had combined Sun Wu's suggestion to sort out the structure of the army. Sun Bin's arrival was equivalent to closing the crucial part of the army's structure.
Since the timing wasn't right, the two didn't have a deep conversation.
Ouyang Shuo told Sun Bin to come to the Marquis's Mansion tomorrow afternoon.
After receiving Sun Bin, Ouyang Shuo turned to look at Bian Que and smiled, "Since Old Mister has come to Shanhai City, this Marquis will do his best to host you. There's an empty residence in the Official Physician's Bureau. I wonder if Old Mister can stay there? "
Bian Que was a little hesitant. He naturally knew that the Marquis of Lianzhou was inviting him to join the Shanhai City's Official Physician's Bureau.
Seeing Bian Que's expression, Ouyang Shuo smiled and continued, "Old Mister doesn't need to worry. The Official Physician's Bureau doesn't restrict the freedom of doctors, so Old Mister can practice medicine freely. Not only that, but the Bureau will also provide you with travel expenses and servants. The only request is for Old Mister to recruit a few apprentices to expand the ranks of doctors in the Bureau. "
Ouyang Shuo knew that Bian Que would be doubtful if he only talked about benefits without any requests. What he wanted was for Bian Que to stay in Shanhai City. Then again, it would be even better if he could fulfill the conditions for doctors to stay here.
Bian Que was tempted and recalled Sun Wu's introduction yesterday. He finally made up his mind and said, "This old man can't refuse the Marquis's kindness!"
"Great!" Ouyang Shuo was overjoyed.
Seeing Bian Que, Ouyang Shuo thought of a person and said, "Old Mister, there's a person who has a hidden illness. We've tried all kinds of treatment methods but to no avail. I wonder if Old Mister can diagnose him?"
"Oh, there's such a strange illness? This old man would like to take a look. "
Bian Que's interest was piqued. For a famous doctor like him, treating complicated illnesses was both a challenge and a way to improve his medical skills.
Seeing that Bian Que couldn't wait, Ouyang Shuo bade farewell to Sun Wu and smiled, "Since that's the case, I'll bring Mister there since there's still time."
"Sure!"
Bian Que entered the house with his medical box and left with Ouyang Shuo.
The person Ouyang Shuo was referring to was his half-master — Master of Bajiquan, Lin Yue.
Song Jia's invitation to Lin Yue had been thwarted. Now that there was an opportunity, Ouyang Shuo naturally wanted to give it a try.
There weren't just martial arts centers in Shanhai City, but there was was. However, the most famous one was the martial arts club founded by Lin Yue. The current dojo had not only changed its name to "Eight Extremities Dojo", but its location had also been moved several times.
The Eight Extremities Boxing Dojo was located in the residential area of the inner city. It was a large courtyard that occupied a vast area.
The number of disciples in the boxing dojo increased from less than a hundred to more than a thousand. "Lin and and a disciple Lin Yang Yi, Lin and Wu" "Yang. and had and had and most had of them and had had had had had. after.
Back then, the earliest batch of disciples had done quite well in the army.
The Wu in. and. and Mu Yang Tian. by, Wu. Li Yang Dong. by, he. on, Yang Yang Mu and. Army..... by Wu Yang Yang Wu. also.
As time passed, the Ba Ji lineage gradually became a force to be reckoned with in the army.
Not to mention, Ouyang Shuo himself practiced the Eight Extremities Fist and could be considered as half a disciple of Lin Yue. The other disciples of the Eight Extremes Sect naturally felt honored. They were innately loyal to Ouyang Shuo.
When Ouyang Shuo and the others arrived, the disciples were decorating the dojo.
Seeing that the Marquis was here, the disciples were very excited and they all rushed over to greet him.
"Marquis!"
"Marquis!"
…
Along the way, the voices of greetings rose and fell.
Ouyang Shuo gestured with his hand, and under the guidance of a receptionist disciple, he arrived at the main hall.
When Lin Yue received the letter, he hurried over.
Ouyang Shuo told the others to leave. Lin Yue knew the Marquis had something important to tell him.
Only the three of them were left in the main hall.
Ouyang Shuo introduced Bian Que to Lin Yue. "This is Bian Que. He's here to see Brother Lin!"
Lin Yue's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. The hidden injuries in his body had become an unbearable pain in his heart. After a long period of seeking medical help but to no avail, he once felt despair, and then became dispirited.
If it wasn't for the boxing dojo, Lin Yue didn't know how he could survive. For a martial artist, not being able to use his martial arts was worse than death.
Lin Yue looked at Bian Que, who was behind the Marquis. He had a complicated expression. He was hopeful, but he was worried that his hope would be dashed. Those who were not personally involved would not be able to understand such complicated emotions.
Bian Que's medical experience was so rich that he had diagnosed countless patients in his life. Lin Yue's mentality was normal in his eyes.
Countless patients with incurable diseases were the same.
Bian Que smiled and asked Lin Yue to sit down. "Benefactor Lin, please sit. Let me feel your pulse."
Lin Yue sat down like an obedient child. He was no longer the stern and cold master in the eyes of the disciples.
Ouyang Shuo didn't dare to disturb him.
Bian Que was the main character in the main hall.
As a matter of fact, Bian Que had started the diagnosis the moment he saw Lin Yue.
Traditional Chinese Medicine was particular about looking, listening, questioning, and feeling the pulse. Bian Que could be considered the ancestor and master in this field. He was especially good at looking at people's faces. He could judge the progression and prognosis of diseases by looking at people's faces.
The famous poem, Bian Que Meets the Duke of Cai Huan, vividly displayed Bian Que's ability to look at people's faces.
After feeling Lin Yue's pulse, Bian Que had a general idea. He asked Lin Yue a few more questions to diagnose the cause and pathology, so he could prescribe the right medicine.
But strangely, Bian Que didn't say anything after asking the questions. He looked troubled.
Lin Yue's heart was in his throat when he saw this. It could be said that Bian Que was his only hope. If even the Godly Doctor couldn't cure his illness, then he, Lin Yue, should really give up.
After a long while, Bian Que opened his eyes and said, "Benefactor Lin's body is suffering from a strange cold poison. It should be caused by an inner force expert, who invaded his body with the poisonous cold inner force and caused it to stagnate. This cold poison is extremely vicious. It will constantly corrode the internal organs of the patient, causing them to fail and die. "
Lin Yue's eyelids twitched when he heard this. It was obvious that he recalled something unpleasant.
He raised his head and cupped his fists at Bian Que, saying, "Old Mister is truly worthy of being called a divine doctor. I won't hide it from you. The one who injured me in the past was indeed an internal energy expert who was good at cold Yin martial arts. "
Bian Que nodded and continued, "If it wasn't for Benefactor Lin's profound internal energy that suppressed the cold poison with his own internal energy, he would've died long ago. Even so, the cold poison has been stuck in his body for a long time. Although it hasn't spread, it has already caused great harm to his body. If you don't treat him, forgive this old man for being blunt, but I'm afraid that Benefactor Lin won't be able to live past the Spring Festival next year. "
Ouyang Shuo's eyes narrowed when he heard this.
Lin Yue didn't mind it and smiled bitterly. It seemed that he had already expected this.
Bian Que continued, "This old man knows of a medicinal pill that can cure the cold poison in Benefactor Lin's body."
"Is that true?"
Lin Yue couldn't stay calm anymore. He stood up and asked with joy in his eyes.
Even Ouyang Shuo was happy for Lin Yue. However, as an outsider, he was clear-headed. He felt that things weren't that simple. Otherwise, Bian Que wouldn't have been in such a difficult position.
As expected, Bian Que nodded and shook his head. "Benefactor Lin, don't be too happy too early. There's a medicinal pill called the Rhinoceros Poison Neutralization Pill that can cure the cold poison. "
"Is there any difficulty?"
"That's right. I know the recipe and refining method. The only difficulty is that the Rhinoceros Poison Neutralization Pill requires an extremely rare main ingredient. "
"What main ingredient?"
Lin Yue regained his composure and a glimmer of hope appeared in his heart.
The most despairing thing wasn't the visible difficulty, but the inability to see the path ahead.
This was the first time Lin Yue heard of a specific method to cure the cold poison in his body. How could he not be happy? He had already made up his mind that no matter what medicinal ingredient it was, he would find it no matter how difficult it was.
"Rhinoceros Horn!"
The medicinal ingredient that Bian Que mentioned made everyone's jaws drop.
"Rhinoceros Horn?" Lin Yue wondered if he had heard wrongly. He asked in confusion, "Divine Doctor, rhinoceros horn isn't considered an expensive medicinal ingredient. You can buy it from a pharmacy in the capital!"
Bian Que shook his head. "It's not difficult to find an ordinary rhinoceros horn. What's difficult is that the cold poison in your body has been stagnant for too long. You can only find a spirit beast rhinoceros horn. "
Lin Yue's face turned pale.
Spirit beasts were extremely rare, not to mention that he had to find a specific rhinoceros spirit beast.
Ouyang Shuo was delighted when he heard Bian Que mention the rhinoceros horn. By the time Bian Que finished explaining his request for the rhinoceros horn, he was filled with emotions.
Everything in the world had a cycle of karma.
Didn't he have an Iron Armor Beast's horn in his storage pouch? The Iron Armor Beast was mutated from a rhinoceros, which was almost the same as Bian Que's request.
Ouyang Shuo knew that it was time for him to speak when he saw Lin Yue's dejected face.
Ouyang Shuo took out the Iron Armor Beast's horn from his storage pouch and handed it to Bian Que. "Sir, this is a wild beast that mutated from a rhinoceros. It's called the Iron Armor Beast's horn. Can it be used as a substitute?"
In an instant, the Iron Armor Beast's horn became the focus of everyone present.
Among the three, Lin Yue had the most complicated expression. There were joy, excitement, anxiety, and so on.
Bian Que, on the other hand, was calm. He took the rhinoceros horn and examined it carefully. He said with a smile, "This Iron Armor Beast is more powerful than ordinary spirit beasts. This horn is suitable for refining the Rhinoceros Horn Poison Pill."
Lin Yue was ecstatic when he heard that. His voice was trembling. He came to Ouyang Shuo and said excitedly, "I can't repay the Marquis's kindness!"
Then, he was about to kneel on the spot.
Ouyang Shuo quickly stopped him and said, "Brother Lin, you don't have to do this. When you first came to the Shanhai Village, I promised to cure your hidden illness. Now, I've fulfilled my promise. There's no need to thank me. "
Lin Yue was filled with emotions when he heard that. He didn't expect that the Marquis would keep his promise in mind. Lin Yue's current emotions were really complicated.
At this moment, no words could describe Lin Yue's gratitude.
Such a great kindness could only be repaid with his life!
Ouyang Shuo also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had fulfilled his promise to Song Jia.
Ouyang Shuo did not stay for long.
He left Bian Que behind and asked Lin Yue to entertain him while he returned to the Marquis's Mansion. (To be continued.)
