Chapter 81 – Old, cunning, huge, sly
When he said this, Su Yun was really taken aback and almost fled in panic.
Doctor Dong smiled and said, "I also started with the study of the Old Holy Scriptures, but later went abroad. Don't be afraid, if I fail to diagnose you, the Left Protector will punish me. I suspect you are not a species of this world, I just need a bit of your blood..."
He took a silver needle and inserted it into Su Yun's wrist vein, and blood flowed out of the tip of the needle.
"What you said about anatomy being a visible subject is correct and incorrect."
Doctor Dong took two bottles of blood and planned to take a few more, but seeing that Su Yun couldn't bear it, he reluctantly stopped and said, "You're injured, so take a little less. Anatomy is not a visible subject, at least it wasn't before. Whether it is now or not is hard to say."
Su Yun felt a little dizzy and asked, "Why is that?"
"Although the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic is an Old Holy Scripture, Confucianism and Buddhism are opposed to it, saying that the body is given by one's parents and that the flesh is a smelly skin that does not allow us doctors to dissect corpses, to find the mysteries of the human body, to find the source of injuries and diseases. Over time, the people regarded us doctors who dissected corpses as monsters."
Doctor Dong said with a sigh, "Later, our Old Holy Scriptures were learned by the Westerners, who used dissection to study and master more mysteries of the human body and to exhaustively study the truth of things. Hehe, even though we had already created the method of dissecting and studying things thousands of years ago, we had to go abroad to learn from the Westerners because of our narrow-mindedness. The Westerners were our disciples back then!"
He shook his head with a lot of emotion and helplessness.
Su Yun hesitated and asked, "Doctor, the injuries caused by the Grey Calamity..."
Doctor Dong suddenly realized and smiled, "I have already prepared the medicine for you. There is a large cauldron over there that I usually use to boil medicine. You can let Xiao Yao get you some water, soak the medicine in it, take off your clothes, and soak in it. Then use the Qi Cultivation Technique to boil the medicine, and by tomorrow morning, your injuries should be healed."
Su Yun widened his eyes and stammered, "Didn't you say my injuries were a bit tricky?"
"Taking blood is a bit tricky, the injury is ordinary. Your physical body is not strong enough to withstand the power of the Grey Calamity, and the Grey Calamity you used is a bit strange, different from other Grey Calamities, but the injury is not serious."
Doctor Dong took out the medicine from the medicine box and handed it to him, waving his hand, "Those monsters just risked their lives to protect you, if I take your blood, won't they kill me? Go! Go! Don't delay my research on your blood!"
Su Yun looked towards the corner of the wall and saw a bronze cauldron more than one person tall. He tiptoed and looked into the cauldron, which was clean and dry without a drop of water.
"Who is Xiao Yao?" The young man looked around.At this moment, a coiling chi dragon on a pillar suddenly came to life. Its head hung down, and its long whiskers swayed in front of Su Yun. A soft voice of a girl was heard from its mouth: "I am Xiao Yao. Junior brother, wait a moment. I will conjure up some clear water."
Su Yun was startled. He saw that the chi dragon was snow-white all over, and occasionally reflected a little rainbow light on its silver scales. There were two silver lines running through its body, and its dragon claws were sharp, gripping onto the bronze pillar.
This was a young chi dragon, which should have been transformed from a silver carp. It had a gentle voice like a young girl, and was much gentler than Jiao Shu'Ao, the venomous dragon in the village.
Xiao Yao conjured up some magic, and immediately, fresh water came out of nowhere, and flowed into the bronze cauldron.
Su Yun put the medicinal materials into the cauldron. Soon, the cauldron was filled with water.
Su Yun took off his clothes. Xiao Yao quickly turned behind the bronze pillar, and said timidly: "I am a girl, I won't look at you..."
Su Yun stripped naked and jumped into the cauldron. He activated the Bi Fang Shen Xing cultivation technique, and used his vigorous true qi to cook the medicinal materials. Soon, the cauldron was filled with thick white mist.
The medicinal properties of the herbs were cooked out and penetrated into Su Yun's body through his skin. He immediately felt his blood and energy become more lively, and his body began to repair itself. He couldn't help but praise in his heart: "Doctor Dong is really a skilled doctor!"
Xiao Yao heard the sound of boiling water, and then came out from behind the pillar, and said admiringly: "Your true qi is really pure."
Su Yun curiously asked: "Is senior a friend of Doctor Dong?"
Xiao Yao quickly said: "I am not a senior. I am also a scholar from the Wen Chang Academy. I am working here during the holidays to help the teacher and earn some money for my family."
She felt a little ashamed and twisted her body, saying: "My family is very poor..."
"Don't believe her."
Doctor Dong's voice came, saying: "She is from a noble family in the Long River in the uninhabited area. She lives at the bottom of the river and has a lot of gold and silver treasures at home. If you can marry her, you won't have to struggle in the future."
Su Yun was surprised and said: "Sister is also from the uninhabited area? I am also from the uninhabited area!"
Xiao Yao was both surprised and happy, and asked with a smile: "Where are you from, little brother?"
"I am from Tianmen Town in the uninhabited area!"
Xiao Yao was originally excited to meet someone from the same hometown, but when she heard the six words "Tianmen Town in the uninhabited area," her face changed, and she left Su Yun there without saying another word.
After a while, the chi dragon ran over to help Doctor Dong check his blood.
Doctor Dong asked curiously: "Why don't you talk to him anymore? He is a good boy. If you become dao companions, it will be very beneficial for you. You are also at the age to get married."
"He is from Tianmen Town."
Xiao Yao shrank her head and said softly: "There are extremely powerful ghosts and gods in Tianmen Town, and I dare not provoke them. If we break up in the future, my family cannot beat his family."Doctor Dong turned around and looked at Su Yun, who was soaking in the pot. Su Yun was already asleep, exhausted and drained from the effects of the medicine.
Even though he was asleep, he was still using the Bi Fang Shen Xing Heart Technique, and the medicine in the pot continued to bubble and emit steam.
"His blood is that of an ordinary person, with no strange bloodline," Doctor Dong frowned and whispered. "This is strange. What is his background? How can he use such powerful Qi and blood? I really want to dissect him, but unfortunately, I can't explain it to Lao Piao."
This night in Shuo Fang City seemed extremely long.
When Su Yun was ambushed on the road, it was during the most chaotic time in Shuo Fang City. The four major academies and various powerful families and experts in the city were all out in force, trying to kill the demons invading Shuo Fang City.
The upper world was ablaze with battles, and Zuo Songyan had been following Su Yun's carriage. When Su Yun was attacked, he watched from the sidelines instead of helping, observing Lin Qingsheng and the others.
When Su Yun was surrounded and seriously injured on the street, he still did not intervene, but observed the others.
It was only after Doctor Dong came forward and ensured Su Yun's safety that he left.
After leaving the lower streets, Zuo Songyan strolled between the various city communities in Shuo Fang, watching one battle after another but never taking action.
Of all the battles, the county captain Wu Shentong was the most eye-catching.
But Zuo Songyan was not interested in Wu Shentong's strength, but rather was trying to find the shadow of the person behind him from his techniques.
However, he was disappointed because Wu Shentong's techniques were from the prison system, mainly using locks and captures to subdue and kill criminals, without any trace of that person.
"Behind this human-demon chaos, there is someone pushing it forward. Only one person can mobilize the demons in the Tian Shi Yuan wasteland on such a large scale."
Zuo Songyan whispered, "This person once went alone to the Tian Shi Yuan wasteland and suppressed the demons there. He has the ability to suppress them, so he naturally has the ability to make them work for him."
The person who single-handedly suppressed the Tian Shi Yuan wasteland was the saint in Shuo Fang City!
When the Tian Shi Yuan wasteland was in chaos years ago and endangered the safety of the people of Shuo Fang, the saint had just been demoted and returned to Shuo Fang to recuperate. Seeing the danger to the people, he went alone into the wasteland and fought against the various demons and even more terrifying beings there for five days and nights, single-handedly suppressing the wasteland and ending the turmoil.
The saint became famous because of this and in Shuo Fang City, no one called him by his name anymore, only referring to him as the saint, even his disciples were called saint sons.
However, Zuo Songyan had been waiting until now, and the saint had not yet appeared or taken action. It seemed that all of this had nothing to do with him, making him feel uncertain.In fact, in the eyes of discerning people, he had already exposed himself as the senior who donated the Ten Embroidered Pictures.
Therefore, taking advantage of his cultivation not yet fully restored, tonight is the best choice to get rid of him!
But Zuo Songyan had been wandering around the city for so long without anyone making a move, making him doubt his own speculation.
"Imperial Tutor Shuijing, you have been living in the high halls of the court for too long, you no longer know what is secular and what is the world of jianghu."
Zuo Songyan suddenly sighed, "After you returned to Shuofang, you also lived in the midst of immortals, never coming to the lower world of Shuofang. What do you feel about what you saw tonight?"
Out of the shadows behind him, Qiu Shuijing silently walked out, looking at the Shuofang city under the night sky with a calm expression, "Su Yun escaped to the lower world of Shuofang, and the scenery of the lower world did surprise me. In the capital, you cannot see the scene of demons and humans living together, nor can you see the hardships of the lower class. It was my first time seeing so many demons in the countryside, and even had the idea of subduing them."
He had been following Zuo Songyan and Su Yun, waiting for the appearance of that saint.
Zuo Songyan sneered, "You cannot see it in the capital because you are standing too high. The officials and emperors on the high halls, who can see the lower class?"
Qiu Shuijing frowned slightly. n0velusb.c0m
Zuo Songyan turned around and faced his old classmate, using words that were meant to attack his heart, "After coming to Shuofang, you should be able to see it, right? But after arriving in Shuofang, you lived among the immortals, never going down to the lower world, and have no idea about the hardships of the lower class. Did what you saw tonight change your view?"
Qiu Shuijing sighed and said, "Zuo Songyan, is this your reason for rebellion?"
Zuo Songyan fell silent.
Qiu Shuijing continued, "You are the owner of the Ten Embroidered Pictures. No matter who controls the Ten Embroidered Pictures, you are still the owner of these ten pictures. You know everything that happens in the pictures. The moment humans and demons entered the picture, you knew who was human and who was demon. But you did not kill the demon, instead you saved her from Su Yun's sword. Old classmate, is your purpose in letting her go not to cause chaos in the world? How are you any different from the person who released the demon to incite rebellion against the Eastern Emperor?"
"Hehe..."
Zuo Songyan's old face trembled, suddenly bursting into laughter, "Shuijing, did you come to Shuofang to investigate me?"
Qiu Shuijing said lightly, "That person released the demon to enhance his own prestige and replace the Eastern Emperor. And you let the demon go to incite rebellion against the Eastern Emperor."
"In this world, shouldn't we rebel?"
Zuo Songyan's white hair stood on end as he walked up to Qiu Shuijing, who was taller than him. He had to look up at Qiu Shuijing, but his imposing manner was like that of a towering giant, "Shuijing, you have seen the bottom of Shuofang! Aren't you in despair? Don't you want to smash this world?"
"And then?"Qiu Shuijing asked back, "Even if you smash it and create a new world, wouldn't it be the same as this one, controlled by the aristocratic families and without any change? Want to rebel? First, you need a way to get rid of the cancer of the current world and build a better one, instead of just smashing it! If you don't have it, you better be honest with me!"
Zuo Songyan stared at him viciously, but Qiu Shuijing didn't back down.
Suddenly, Zuo Songyan took a step back and laughed, "Shuijing, do you really think I'm going to rebel? I'm just a servant at the Wen Chang Academy. How could I rebel?"
Qiu Shuijing looked at him and after a moment, smiled, "Songyan, do you really think I'm the emperor's envoy sent to investigate you? I'm just a dismissed hermit from the mountains."
The two smiled at each other.
"That person is old and cunning, and also huge and sly. He probably won't show up again."
"Probably not."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Chapter 81 – Old, cunning, huge, sly
When he said this, Su Yun was really taken aback and almost fled in panic.
Doctor Dong smiled and said, "I also started with the study of the Old Holy Scriptures, but later went abroad. Don't be afraid, if I fail to diagnose you, the Left Protector will punish me. I suspect you are not a species of this world, I just need a bit of your blood..."
He took a silver needle and inserted it into Su Yun's wrist vein, and blood flowed out of the tip of the needle.
"What you said about anatomy being a visible subject is correct and incorrect."
Doctor Dong took two bottles of blood and planned to take a few more, but seeing that Su Yun couldn't bear it, he reluctantly stopped and said, "You're injured, so take a little less. Anatomy is not a visible subject, at least it wasn't before. Whether it is now or not is hard to say."
Su Yun felt a little dizzy and asked, "Why is that?"
"Although the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic is an Old Holy Scripture, Confucianism and Buddhism are opposed to it, saying that the body is given by one's parents and that the flesh is a smelly skin that does not allow us doctors to dissect corpses, to find the mysteries of the human body, to find the source of injuries and diseases. Over time, the people regarded us doctors who dissected corpses as monsters."
Doctor Dong said with a sigh, "Later, our Old Holy Scriptures were learned by the Westerners, who used dissection to study and master more mysteries of the human body and to exhaustively study the truth of things. Hehe, even though we had already created the method of dissecting and studying things thousands of years ago, we had to go abroad to learn from the Westerners because of our narrow-mindedness. The Westerners were our disciples back then!"

"His blood is that of an ordinary person, with no strange bloodline," Doctor Dong frowned and whispered. "This is strange. What is his background? How can he use such powerful Qi and blood? I really want to dissect him, but unfortunately, I can't explain it to Lao Piao." This night in Shuo Fang City seemed extremely long. When Su Yun was ambushed on the road, it was during the most chaotic time in Shuo Fang City. The four major academies and various powerful families and experts in the city were all out in force, trying to kill the demons invading Shuo Fang City. The upper world was ablaze with battles, and Zuo Songyan had been following Su Yun's carriage. When Su Yun was attacked, he watched from the sidelines instead of helping, observing Lin Qingsheng and the others. When Su Yun was surrounded and seriously injured on the street, he still did not intervene, but observed the others. It was only after Doctor Dong came forward and ensured Su Yun's safety that he left. After leaving the lower streets, Zuo Songyan strolled between the various city communities in Shuo Fang, watching one battle after another but never taking action. Of all the battles, the county captain Wu Shentong was the most eye-catching. But Zuo Songyan was not interested in Wu Shentong's strength, but rather was trying to find the shadow of the person behind him from his techniques. However, he was disappointed because Wu Shentong's techniques were from the prison system, mainly using locks and captures to subdue and kill criminals, without any trace of that person. "Behind this human-demon chaos, there is someone pushing it forward. Only one person can mobilize the demons in the Tian Shi Yuan wasteland on such a large scale." Zuo Songyan whispered, "This person once went alone to the Tian Shi Yuan wasteland and suppressed the demons there. He has the ability to suppress them, so he naturally has the ability to make them work for him." The person who single-handedly suppressed the Tian Shi Yuan wasteland was the saint in Shuo Fang City! When the Tian Shi Yuan wasteland was in chaos years ago and endangered the safety of the people of Shuo Fang, the saint had just been demoted and returned to Shuo Fang to recuperate. Seeing the danger to the people, he went alone into the wasteland and fought against the various demons and even more terrifying beings there for five days and nights, single-handedly suppressing the wasteland and ending the turmoil. The saint became famous because of this and in Shuo Fang City, no one called him by his name anymore, only referring to him as the saint, even his disciples were called saint sons. However, Zuo Songyan had been waiting until now, and the saint had not yet appeared or taken action. It seemed that all of this had nothing to do with him, making him feel uncertain.In fact, in the eyes of discerning people, he had already exposed himself as the senior who donated the Ten Embroidered Pictures. Therefore, taking advantage of his cultivation not yet fully restored, tonight is the best choice to get rid of him! But Zuo Songyan had been wandering around the city for so long without anyone making a move, making him doubt his own speculation. "Imperial Tutor Shuijing, you have been living in the high halls of the court for too long, you no longer know what is secular and what is the world of jianghu." Zuo Songyan suddenly sighed, "After you returned to Shuofang, you also lived in the midst of immortals, never coming to the lower world of Shuofang. What do you feel about what you saw tonight?" Out of the shadows behind him, Qiu Shuijing silently walked out, looking at the Shuofang city under the night sky with a calm expression, "Su Yun escaped to the lower world of Shuofang, and the scenery of the lower world did surprise me. In the capital, you cannot see the scene of demons and humans living together, nor can you see the hardships of the lower class. It was my first time seeing so many demons in the countryside, and even had the idea of subduing them." He had been following Zuo Songyan and Su Yun, waiting for the appearance of that saint. Zuo Songyan sneered, "You cannot see it in the capital because you are standing too high. The officials and emperors on the high halls, who can see the lower class?" Qiu Shuijing frowned slightly. n0velusb.c0mZuo Songyan turned around and faced his old classmate, using words that were meant to attack his heart, "After coming to Shuofang, you should be able to see it, right? But after arriving in Shuofang, you lived among the immortals, never going down to the lower world, and have no idea about the hardships of the lower class. Did what you saw tonight change your view?" Qiu Shuijing sighed and said, "Zuo Songyan, is this your reason for rebellion?" Zuo Songyan fell silent. Qiu Shuijing continued, "You are the owner of the Ten Embroidered Pictures. No matter who controls the Ten Embroidered Pictures, you are still the owner of these ten pictures. You know everything that happens in the pictures. The moment humans and demons entered the picture, you knew who was human and who was demon. But you did not kill the demon, instead you saved her from Su Yun's sword. Old classmate, is your purpose in letting her go not to cause chaos in the world? How are you any different from the person who released the demon to incite rebellion against the Eastern Emperor?" "Hehe..." Zuo Songyan's old face trembled, suddenly bursting into laughter, "Shuijing, did you come to Shuofang to investigate me?" Qiu Shuijing said lightly, "That person released the demon to enhance his own prestige and replace the Eastern Emperor. And you let the demon go to incite rebellion against the Eastern Emperor." "In this world, shouldn't we rebel?" Zuo Songyan's white hair stood on end as he walked up to Qiu Shuijing, who was taller than him. He had to look up at Qiu Shuijing, but his imposing manner was like that of a towering giant, "Shuijing, you have seen the bottom of Shuofang! Aren't you in despair? Don't you want to smash this world?" "And then?"Qiu Shuijing asked back, "Even if you smash it and create a new world, wouldn't it be the same as this one, controlled by the aristocratic families and without any change? Want to rebel? First, you need a way to get rid of the cancer of the current world and build a better one, instead of just smashing it! If you don't have it, you better be honest with me!" Zuo Songyan stared at him viciously, but Qiu Shuijing didn't back down. Suddenly, Zuo Songyan took a step back and laughed, "Shuijing, do you really think I'm going to rebel? I'm just a servant at the Wen Chang Academy. How could I rebel?" Qiu Shuijing looked at him and after a moment, smiled, "Songyan, do you really think I'm the emperor's envoy sent to investigate you? I'm just a dismissed hermit from the mountains." The two smiled at each other. "That person is old and cunning, and also huge and sly. He probably won't show up again." "Probably not."
