Chapter 209: There are ruthless people in the world
"Master Xiao Li..."
In the main hall of the clinic, Liu Yishou looked at Li Chu's extremely handsome and indifferent face, feeling that something was wrong, and his words became a little awkward.
"Doctor Liu, you can choose to remain silent, but every word you say may be submitted to Chaotianque." Li Chu said coldly.
"What do you mean?" Doctor Liu smiled, "Is the exorcism not going well?"
"It went very smoothly." Li Chu shook his head: "I have eliminated the vengeful spirit, but... why did it appear and why did it only want the left hand? This is worth pondering."
Liu Yishou smiled again, "Some people like their left hand, some like their right hand... This is normal..."
Li Chu stared at Liu Yishou quietly.
"I suspect you have done something evil here. If Doctor Liu can't give a reasonable explanation, I must report this to the authorities."
"No, don't!" Liu Yishou quickly stopped him.
He looked at Li Chu, gritted his teeth, and said, "It's okay if I tell you, I definitely didn't... Alas!"
After talking incoherently for a while, he carefully went over to close the doors and windows, then sat back down.
"Speaking of this... you can't really blame me."
"A few days ago, a group of extremely vicious cultivators suddenly came to our door at night." Doctor Liu still looked frightened.
"Their methods were particularly horrible. They suddenly dragged me from the clinic to a snowy place, stripped me naked, and then... threatened me to do something for them."
"They kidnapped a man and asked me to transfer his left hand to another man..."
"But even though I can do limb replacements, I have never removed a limb without the consent of the person. This... this is illegal! I refused them at the time."
"Then...then they threatened me that if I didn't obey, they would...let me freeze to death, and then kill everyone in my clinic."
"I'm just a mortal. How can I defy such a group of powerful cultivators? So...so..." He hesitated again.
"You just helped them?" Li Chu helped him to finish the sentence.
"Yes." Liu Yishou nodded, and then said: "You really don't know how terrifying they are. The person they kidnapped was also a very powerful cultivator, but he had no power to resist."
"I just gave his left hand to another person, but never hurt his life. He was still alive when I finished."
"Then I came back. They said that if I didn't spread the news, everything would be fine. If anyone dared to leak any word, the entire clinic would be buried with them!"
"So when I discovered the vengeful spirit, I didn't dare report it to the Heavenly Palace. I was afraid that they would find out, like you, that the vengeful spirit came from a strange place. I don't know why... I wasn't the one who arrested him, and I wasn't the one who killed him, but he had such a strong grudge against an arm that he even turned into a vengeful spirit and wanted to come back to me."
"I was really forced!"
Doctor Liu became more and more excited as he spoke.
"Master Xiao Li, once this matter gets out, let alone the punishment I will receive or the damage to the reputation of the clinic, I will definitely not be able to withstand the revenge from that group of people!"
"Please be kind and let this matter go and keep it a secret for me, okay?" He looked at Li Chu earnestly.
Li Chu was silent for a moment, then asked, "Do you know where that group of people came from?"
Doctor Liu's lips trembled. He looked around and then lowered his voice and said, "They are not shy about where they came from, but you must not spread the news. They came from..."
then.
He slowly uttered two words: "Beiming."
…
After returning to Deyun Temple, Li Chu was in deep thought for a while.
He did not hastily spread the news, as that would be tantamount to harming others. To be fair, Liu Yishou was indeed a kind-hearted man and a good doctor, and he was well-known among his neighbors.
But now that I know about this, I can't just ignore it. I have to think of a proper solution.
Of course, the prerequisite for finding a solution is to have sufficient understanding of the situation.
So he called the fox girl and lit three long incense sticks in the jade furnace.
A moment later, the old Taoist priest's figure appeared in the curling smoke.
Yu Qian'an smiled in an immortal manner, but before he could utter the first sentence, he was pushed aside by the little koi with wide eyes.
"Well...you guys sneaked out to play while I was away."
Seeing Li Chu and the fox girl, the little koi pouted.
"We are here to do serious business." Li Chu said.
Little Koi asked: "So how many things have you done in these days?"
Li Chu replied: "A whole piece."
“…”
"Haha, stop messing around."
Yu Qian'an sat back down, smiled, and looked at Li Chu: "Why are you calling me Master all of a sudden? Have you encountered any problems?"
"Hmm..." Li Chu briefly described what happened in the clinic, and then asked, "Master, do you know about the Beiming Sect?"
"hiss……"
The old Taoist stroked his beard and frowned, "They are a group of ruthless people."
"The Beiming Sect is a religion that lives in the Far North. They believe in the ancient being in the Beiming, Kun."
"Kun is the largest being in the world. Its power is comparable to that of the Four Elephants. In terms of its physical body, it even surpasses them."
"Beijing Ming Sect's followers have been feeding the giant Kun for generations since thousands of years ago. The entire sect firmly believes that the Kun will one day transform into a Peng. On that day, they will ascend to heaven with their sect."
"And Kun's favorite food is dragons, so there have been no dragons in Beiming since ancient times. Kun cannot leave Beiming, so the followers of the Beiming sect go around the world to capture dragon descendants and bring them to Beiming to offer to it."
"This group of people has been targeting dragons as prey for thousands of years, so you can see how cruel they are."
Li Chu nodded.
Even though the dragon clan has declined now, they are definitely not the kind that can be easily treated as prey. At least the Dragon-Raising Kingdom in the East China Sea is still in its heyday.
Catch the dragon and feed it to Kun...
It sounds cruel indeed.
"You can pay a little attention to this matter, but it's best not to get too involved. The water may be deep. Besides... you have other things to do."
Finally, Yu Qian'an gave some advice.
"Yes, disciple knows." Li Chu nodded in response.
As they were talking, the sky over Shenluo City turned grey and light snow began to fall again.
The peonies on the street swayed slightly, like beauties in the cold wind.
…
Wind, flowers, snow, and moon.
Shenluo City has never lacked these four things, but it is not often that they are gathered together like tonight.
The moonlight was bright, and the candlelight in the main hall of the clinic seemed dim.
It was already late at night, but Liu Yishou had just returned here tiredly and was writing something in a book.
The clinic was closed a few days ago, so some patients were delayed. He was busy all day before he dealt with them all.
As he was writing, a cold wind suddenly blew by. He looked up and saw that the door of the main hall had opened at some point.
He stood up and closed the door.
Then...his body stiffened.
Because he saw the shadow cast by the candle on the wall.
As if he had made up his mind, he slowly turned around.
Then he saw a tall figure sitting in the position where he had just been, wearing a white robe and jade belt, with a calm expression.
"Yue...Lord Moon God Ling."
Just by saying hello, cold sweat broke out on Doctor Liu's forehead.
The man smiled at him and said, "Long time no see, Doctor Liu, how are you these days?"
"Okay." Liu Yishou nodded repeatedly: "It's OK, thank you Yue Shenling for your concern."
"Really? I heard that there was something evil going on here."
The person called Moon Goddess suddenly changed the subject.
"It's been solved." Liu Yishou said hurriedly.
"It's also our fault that we informed you late, but... you should have informed us as soon as the vengeful spirit appeared." Yue Shenling seemed to have a look of regret.
"No... I dare not bother you." Doctor Liu waved his hand and sighed, "I have nothing to trade."
"This is an after-sales service, how can it be a transaction? If it is not handled properly, it will be bad for everyone." Yue Shen Ling said lazily: "For example, this time, no one asked about the origin of the vengeful spirit?"
"I did." Doctor Liu answered vigilantly: "I only said that I was doing it for the Beiming Sect. I dare not reveal even a little bit about the transaction with Lord Canghaijun!"
"Really?" Moon God smiled.
"Absolutely true!" Liu Yishou nodded heavily.
"That's good." Yue Shen Ling said slowly: "If you have already told others, it would be a bit troublesome. Since you haven't told anyone, then killing you will be the end of it."
“Ah, this…”
Liu Yishou took two steps back, obviously not expecting this logic.
He turned around and wanted to push open the door and shout, but when he opened the door, he suddenly felt that the moonlight tonight was a little dazzling.
It looks like... a knife.
Cold as ice, chilly as snow.
laugh--
The figure sitting on the chair became fainter and fainter, and finally disappeared. From the time he appeared to the time he left, the Moon God Order did not seem to move at all.
But there was already a cold corpse on the ground.
The cold wind blew into the room, blowing the pages of the book around.
A shadow gradually enveloped the moonlight.
