"Quickly get the painkiller powder and apply it on her!"
One doctor took Jiang Qingcheng's pulse, while the other stumbled over to get some painkiller powder. "Brother," he said, bewildered, "this medicine is for external application!"
Jiang Qingcheng had a stomachache, but these two doctors were both men, so they couldn't lift up her dress and apply medicine. Besides, there was no wound on her belly. The pain was in her stomach, so what was the use of giving her painkiller powder?
"I was wrong. Bring me the painkiller pills for internal use."
"well……"
The two of them were in a hurry. They first fed Jiang Qingcheng some painkillers and asked her to drink more water. Maybe it was a psychological effect, but after all the busy work, Jiang Qingcheng actually felt much better.
"Thank you," she said weakly.
"Are you feeling better?" The slightly overweight doctor felt Jiang Qingcheng's pulse again and said, "Miss, there was a surge of foul energy in your body just now, which caused your stomachache... This painkiller only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. My junior brother and I are not very skilled in medicine, so if you want a permanent cure, you'd better seek help from someone else."
Jiang Qingcheng took a few deep breaths, feeling like she was about to die from the pain. She forced an ugly smile and asked, "Can you give me a few more pain-relieving pills?"
"Of course you can, but the problem is that this pill... is very expensive." The slightly plump doctor saw that she was wearing a maid's clothes and couldn't help but worry whether she could afford the money.
At this time, Lan Zhi said, "I'll buy all the painkillers you have here. As long as it can relieve my cousin's pain, I'm willing to spend any amount."
Jiang Qingcheng looked up and saw that Lan Zhi's eyes were slightly red, misty and tears were about to fall. She looked at her with pity.
Jiang Qingcheng: "..." Suddenly, I felt that this sister was quite good...
Since her parents passed away, it seemed like no one had cared about her so much.
Jiang Qingcheng pursed her lips and said nothing, feeling a little guilty. She lay on the hospital bed, quietly watching Lan Zhi pay the money.
The slightly plump doctor took out a medicine bottle and warned, "This bottle contains ten pain-relieving pills. This stuff... taking too much is not good for your health. You should find a good doctor as soon as possible."
Xinglintang had two bottles of painkillers, but they couldn't sell them all. What if another patient came? If they couldn't restock the stock quickly, it would damage their reputation. So they only sold one bottle and hid the other.
"Sister, how do you feel?" Lan Zhi sat down beside the bed. In fact, this pain-relieving pill had no effect at all. It was Lan Zhi who controlled the Gu spirit to gradually reduce its tossing and turning, giving people the illusion that the pill was very useful.
"Sister, I'm much better now, but I still feel a little weak." Jiang Qingcheng replied. She stared at Lan Zhi for a moment, then said, "Sister, it would be great if you could stay by my side forever."
Lan Zhi said: "You will get married in the future..."
"That's easy. My sister and I can just marry the same man. Men always have to take wives and concubines. I'm willing to be someone's concubine."
Jiang Qingcheng's willingness to say such words was, in her opinion, a huge concession. After all, she was an ambitious woman who was obsessed with climbing up the social ladder. A concubine had a low status and could be given away, punished, or sold at will by the mistress of the house. But Jiang Qingcheng felt that her sister would definitely not sell her if she became the mistress, and her sister was going to marry the prince, so being his concubine would not be considered a humiliation for her.
Lan Zhi: “…”
"Sister, don't you want to?" Jiang Qingcheng lowered her eyelids.
Lan Zhi felt very uncomfortable. Although they were all native women of ancient times, the spiritual masters of Qingyuan Realm had an extraordinary status. To use an inappropriate metaphor, if Lan Zhi was willing to enter the palace as a concubine, the emperor would definitely be overjoyed and would only favor Lan Zhi from then on and would never take other concubines. And if Lan Zhi married a prince, the prince would definitely not dare to take a concubine, because spiritual masters could choose a special skill when they combined forces, and the fusion of husband and wife could improve their cultivation and make progress together. Beautiful and powerful female spiritual masters were rare, and whoever married them would treat them exclusively. Therefore, Lan Zhi only wanted to be with one person for the rest of her life and did not want to share her husband with other women.
However, Jiang Qingcheng certainly could not have thought of this, because she herself was only at the weakest Infant Yuan Realm. People at this level of cultivation were relatively common. If she wanted to marry a son of a powerful family, it would be difficult because her background was not qualified. Most of the ladies from prominent families were also at the Infant Yuan Realm, but with their background, it was not a problem for her to marry a husband of equal status. The husband could take concubines, but there were also those who had a good relationship and were loving and loyal to each other.
Lan Zhi felt disgusted, thinking that her good sister in her "previous life" was secretly hanging out with Yuan Zhan, and she almost sent Jiang Qingcheng to death immediately, but she still held back. Sometimes death is a kind of relief. It would be better to let Jiang Qingcheng suffer every few days in the future, and wait until she killed Prince Rui, and then completely get rid of Jiang Qingcheng and Yuan Zhan.
Lan Zhi raised her hand and wiped away the tears in her eyes. She said earnestly, "Qingcheng, you are my sister. I hope you can marry someone else as a wife, not a concubine..."
"But, my sister treats me so well, I don't want to be separated from her..."
Lan Zhi felt so nauseous after hearing this that she almost vomited. She decided to change the subject, "Qingcheng, if you can't walk, can I carry you home?"
"No, I'm much better now."

…
At this moment, the stargazers in the palace went out one after another. Although the evil star had gone out, they were still worried that the ferocious beasts would be contracted by evil-minded demon cultivators. The ferocious beasts were already ferocious, and if they met an evil demon cultivator, they would be doomed. The ferocious beasts had no brains and only knew how to eat people and run away after eating. However, they would always leave traces when they escape, and they could be tracked and captured by following the traces. Often, they would be dealt with before they could grow up.
But the demon cultivators are in trouble. They hide in the dark, kill a dozen people in this village today, and run to a hundred miles away to kill another dozen tomorrow, just to survive. Some demon cultivators know how to cover up their escape tracks and change routes to interfere with the spiritual master's calculations. They slowly raise the ferocious beasts, and when they are raised to a certain size, they come out to stir up trouble and kill people at will... By then, it will be a catastrophe.
However, everything has its pros and cons. If a decent person contracts a ferocious beast, there is no need to worry so much, because decent people will not harm ordinary people. At most, they will find some animal carcasses to feed the ferocious beast, and then...
Then draw some blood from the ferocious beast, and occasionally cut some of its flesh.
The flesh and blood of ferocious beasts are materials for refining medicine and are very valuable.
However, the appearance of ferocious beast cubs in the Great Rui Kingdom was relatively rare. Even if they did appear, most of them were captured by the royal family. The royal family only publicized the cruelty of the ferocious beasts to the outside world, and then said that if anyone caught a ferocious beast, they could sell it to the royal family. The royal family was willing to pay a high price because the emperor was the true dragon emperor and would use the ferocious beasts for sacrifice to the heavens...
Of course, these contents are all nonsense made up by the royal family, and outsiders don’t know. For example, Lan Zhi doesn’t know much about ferocious beasts, so she wants to sell them to a prince, such as Prince Jing, so that the royal family can use them for sacrifices. But when astrologers learn astrology, they naturally acquire a lot of knowledge related to heaven and earth, so they understand ferocious beasts and can track them.
