Fearing that it would attract attention, Linglong did not bring Xiao Qingyin with her, but instead secretly brought her younger sister instead.

After examining her, Xiao Qingyin replied, "She has acute hepatitis."

Can it be cured?

"Yes, but I need a set of silver needles, a batch of medicinal herbs, and pharmaceutical tools. Can you get those?"

Linglong hesitated for a moment before replying, "Okay."

"Then it's up to you."

Xiao Qingyin didn't know how Linglong did it, but she delivered everything that very night.

She used those herbs and tools to make a lot of medicine.

With the medicine on me, I finally felt much more at ease.

She gave Linglong a pill.

Without saying a word, Linglong ate it.

Xiao Qingyin was quite satisfied with her pragmatism.

"This medicine requires an antidote every seven days, or you will die."

She told Linglong.

Linglong said calmly, "I will not betray you."

Xiao Qingyin smiled.

"Bring your sister over."

"good."

Xiao Qingyin gave Linglong acupuncture, prepared medicine, and instructed Linglong on how to use it.

Three days later, Linglong said with a grateful look, "My sister is all better now, thank you."

Xiao Qingyin replied, "No need to be polite, let's just take what we need."

With Linglong covering for her, she had more things she could do when she went out.

Of course, we can't go too far, after all, besides Linglong, there are other people watching us from the shadows.

That day, she came to Santa Square again, pretending to casually look at the scenery, but actually observing the distribution of the Sacred Regiment.

A familiar-looking woman walked over.

"Young lady, do you remember me?"

The woman approached and asked cautiously.

Xiao Qingyin nodded slightly.

The tension on the woman's face eased a little.

“Other people in our village have also contracted gynostemma penetrant disease. I told them about your treatment method, but they are afraid to try it, worried that they might tear the worms off. Could you... help them?”

She said anxiously.

"They won't let you help for nothing; they're willing to pay you the price they would have paid as a token of gratitude."

Xiao Qingyin narrowed her eyes.

"You know this is illegal, right? If we get caught, not only will I be executed, but you will all be executed as traitors."

The woman nodded nervously.

“We know. But there’s really nothing we can do. They’re in so much pain they can’t even get out of bed. Our village is on the outskirts of the Holy City. There are no Holy Army troops there. As long as we keep it a secret, no one will know.”

Xiao Qingyin was silent for a moment, then asked the woman, "How many people are in your village? How many of them have this disease?"

"One hundred and thirty people. More than twenty of them have this disease."

What's the name of your village?

Xishan Village.

I'll go check it out tomorrow.

The woman was overjoyed, thanked him repeatedly, and left with a smile on her face.

After she left, Linglong whispered a reminder: "Young Master instructed that you can only move around in the city center and cannot go to the suburbs."

He will agree.

Xiao Qingyin replied.

Linglong looked slightly taken aback.

After returning, Xiao Qingyin said to Bai Musheng, "I want to go to Xishan Village tomorrow."

Bai Musheng frowned: "What are you going there for?"

"To cure illness."

Xiao Qingyin said succinctly.

“Nearly one-sixth of the people there have contracted girice disease, which is not a small percentage. If the girice larvae are allowed to spread, even more people will get sick.”

"but……"

"You don't want me to treat their illnesses, do you?"

Xiao Qingyin stared intently at Bai Musheng.

"Yes."

Bai Musheng replied.

"This is a very dangerous act. If someone informs you, you will be arrested."

You'll help me, won't you?

Xiao Qingyin blinked.

"If I cure them, I'll get them to vote for you. Even though civilians' votes don't carry much weight, they can still make a difference, right?"

Bai Musheng was flattered.

"You went to treat them because of me?"

“Yes,” Xiao Qingyin smiled slightly. “Otherwise, why would I care about their lives? I’m not a saint.”

Bai Musheng was deeply moved: "Xiao Xiao, you're so good to me."

"I'm waiting for you to become the Holy Son, so I can swagger around here."

Xiao Qingyin looked on with longing.

Bai Musheng nodded heavily.

"I will definitely work hard for our shared future."

In that instant, he felt as if he had traveled back to his time studying at Bailu Academy, where Xiao Qingyin always encouraged and supported him, allowing him to move forward with unwavering determination.

Wasn't everything he did before just to get her back by his side and to fight for their future together again?

Now, his wish has come true.

"Okay, go ahead."

He smiled.

"Don't worry about the Holy Army, I'll help you."

The next day, Xiao Qingyin took Linglong to Xishan Village.

The sick villagers gathered in an old house early in the morning to wait for her. When they saw her arrive, their faces were full of smiles.

Xiao Qingyin noticed someone who didn't fit in among these people.

A gentle woman with stunning beauty.

Although the other person was dressed like a villager, his fair face, bright eyes, and elegant demeanor all indicated to Xiao Qingyin that he did not belong here.

As she was looking her over, the woman walked towards her and said with a smile, "Hello, my name is Shen Yanru, and I am the manager of Ruyi Teahouse. I'm here to assist you."

Xiao Qingyin cast an inquiring glance at the woman who had come to find her.

The woman quickly said, "Miss Shen's hometown is our Xishan Village. She often comes back to visit us. She was very worried when she saw so many villagers getting sick, so she asked me to come find you."
