Chapter 195: Blending in
She sat by the fire, holding the little fox to keep warm.
Li Xiu in the distance was busy and exhausted.
She glanced around casually and saw that everyone looked unhappy.
Roughly speaking, there were only two medical practitioners in the team of more than 30 people, one mid-level medical practitioner and one low-level medical practitioner.
Tao Zi's eyes flashed. If she remembered correctly, there were only two high-level medical practitioners in the sect, and both were brought here by the masters of other peaks.
And all the high-level medical practitioners who are on good terms with the Minglan Sect are connections of the Xingtang - after all, the Xingtang suffers the most frequent injuries, so this is a very reasonable thing, isn't it?
She lowered her eyes and touched the fox in her arms. Her mind was racing, and she had some guesses about the situation in Minglan Sect.
At this moment, a man suddenly came over and said, "This fellow Taoist hasn't asked your name yet."
She smiled timidly and said, "My last name is Wen."
Fifteen looked at her expression and softened his tone, "Don't be afraid. Our Young Sect Master has always been very kind. He's only so serious because something just happened."
She whispered, "I know. The Young Master of the Minglan Sect has a good reputation. I've heard of it."
Taking advantage of these words, Fifteen sat down beside her, looked at the little fox in her arms, and asked with a smile, "Is this little fox your pet?"
"Well, its name is Xiaobai, very cute." Tao Zi made up a name.
Fifteen praised the little fox a few times, then said, "Your friend is a good doctor. What's his last name?"
"His last name is Li, the same as Muzi Li."
He looked at the busy figure over there and said with a smile: "It's thanks to him that I was healed just now, otherwise I would not have been able to hold on."
"As it should be. We still have to rely on the Minglan Sect, so we must do our best to treat it."
The sincerity of these words made Fifteen laugh.
Thirteen called out calmly from a distance, "Fifteen, come here."
He put away his smile, looked at the frightened girl, and comforted her: "It's okay, my brother just looks serious, he's not a bad person."
She nodded slightly, and Fifteen added, "Just tell me if you need anything, and I'll take care of it."
"Thanks."
Fifteen walked over to Thirteen and asked, "Brother Thirteen, what's wrong?"
He warned with a cold face: "Don't talk nonsense, especially to people outside the sect."
Fifteen frowned and said, "Miss Wen doesn't look like a bad person. Besides, her friends are helping us now."
Thirteen was a little impatient: "Just don't cause any more trouble."
He was displeased and said, "Again? What did I say when we discovered that demon beast? It was better to avoid it just in case. It was you who instigated the Young Sect Master to take action. Now, how come I am the one who caused this trouble?"
Thirteen's face darkened and he didn't say anything. Fifteen was too lazy to say anything more. The atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became tense.
After a while, someone came over and said, "Thirteenth Senior Brother, Fifteenth Senior Brother, the Young Sect Master wants to see you."
They both nodded, put away their expressions and walked over.
Xu Qianjia asked slowly, "How strong is that woman over there?"
Thirteen bowed his head respectfully and said, "Judging from the aura around him, if it's high, he's at the foundation building stage, and if it's low, he's at the body refining stage. It's not worth taking seriously."
Fifteen suddenly said, "It could also be a physical cultivator. Don't forget, physical cultivators have weak spiritual energy."
Thirteen said unhappily, "Look at her. She doesn't look like a physical cultivator at all."
He replied rudely: "What if? Besides, didn't you ask me to be on guard against her?"
"Thirteen, fifteen!" Xu Qianjia said with a headache to stop their quarrel.
Seeing him like this, both of them shut their mouths.
He relaxed his expression and said gently, "Fifteen is right. It's better to be cautious. Fifteen, send someone to keep an eye on them. We can't have any accidents on this trip."
"yes."
After the two of them left, he looked at the woman sitting there quietly. He was distracted and thought he saw his senior sister.
But this illusion only lasted for a moment. He suppressed the emotions that had just surged up and looked at her again.
He whispered to the person beside him, "Go, get that medical practitioner to heal me."
"yes."
Li Xiu quickly came to Xu Qianjia and asked cautiously, "Young Sect Master, are you feeling unwell?"
He smiled and pointed to his chest, saying, "I just got hit here."
"Can I conduct an investigation?"
"Of course you can."
Li Xiu cautiously probed into the spiritual energy, and Xu Qianjia suddenly asked, "What's your last name?"
Li Xiu was startled, and his spiritual energy surged uncontrollably. Fortunately, he controlled it in time.
The discomfort coming from his spiritual veins made him frown. Li Xiu hurriedly said, "Young Sect Master, it was my negligence."
"It's okay. I shouldn't have disturbed you by speaking."
He carefully withdrew his spiritual energy, and then said, "My last name is Li, the same as Muzi Li."
Xu Qianjia nodded slightly, and Li Xiu continued, "Young Sect Master's injuries are not serious, so some medicine will do. However, does Young Sect Master want to take it internally or for external use?"
"How about taking it internally, and how about using it externally?"
"Internal use heals injuries faster, while external use takes longer."
Xu Qianjia thought for a moment and said, "Then take it internally."
The people around him seemed to want to say something but hesitated, and in the end, they didn't speak.
Li Xiu pretended not to notice their expressions, wrote a prescription and handed it to the person next to Xu Qianjia, saying, "Just prepare it according to this prescription."
Xu Qianjia smiled and said, "You've worked hard. Go back and rest first."
"No, a few of them are seriously injured, I have to go and guard them."
Watching him run to the other injured, the person next to Xu Qianjia spoke up, "Young Sect Master, please be cautious with prescriptions given by people of unknown origin."
He said indifferently, "Show it quietly to the other two. If it's good, we'll use it."
There are too few available medical practitioners in the sect. Although this person is timid, he is young and very powerful. It would be great if he could be recruited for one's own use.
Li Xiu quietly wiped the sweat off his hands while no one was paying attention. God knows he was really scared just now.
A Jindan looked at him thoughtfully, but he was really guilty. This feeling was too terrible.
Not long after, Tao Zi saw Xu Qianjia drinking a bowl of medicine. She turned to look at Li Xiu. Li Xiu met her gaze, smiled foolishly, and scratched his head.
To others, this picture is at most ambiguous and has no other meaning.
Only the two of them knew what this meant - the first medicine, success.
She slowly touched the little fox's head, and the little fox jumped onto her shoulder in disgust, not letting her touch it.
Tao Zi didn't care, she just added some firewood to the fire, feeling a little regretful.
It would have been better if Xu Qianjia hadn't brought a medical practitioner with him. In this way, he could have used medicine to suppress his strength and then killed him, instead of being so cautious.
However, this idea was impossible to realize, so she could only put it behind her and think about what to do next.
