I thought Lei Jiao would be very surprised, but who would have thought that this girl would be quite calm after hearing it.
"I know, my grandfather also said that this matter must not be known to outsiders, or it might lead to my death."
But you're different. Someone who earns the leader's trust and receives a first-class merit award shows you're a good person. This kind of thing should be given to a capable and good person.
This time it was Jiang Qiao's turn to be surprised: "How did you know about this?"
Lei Jiao smiled and glanced at Jiang Qiao. "I heard about this from our dean. As for how he knew, I don't know. Maybe he found out from the leader."
"I'm handing this book over to you; now I can finally have some peace and quiet."
Jiang Qiao didn't pursue the matter of the Heavenly Doctor Sect any further, nor did she reveal her identity. It wouldn't do Lei Jiao any good if she found out.
Upon arriving at the dormitory, Lei Jiao immediately found the book, which was probably transcribed by her ancestors and was well-preserved. In Jiang Qiao's opinion, it was already quite remarkable that it had been passed down.
Lei Jiao sighed, "It's a pity there's no first volume; you'll have to guess."
Jiang Qiao smiled and patted Lei Jiao's shoulder, "This is already very good. Maybe I'll have the chance to find the first volume in the future. But I still want to thank you. You go ahead and do your work. We'll talk again later."
Jiang Qiao had made up her mind. She couldn't just take this book for free. After all, it was passed down from someone's ancestors. Just for the sake of that intention to protect and pass it down, she couldn't let them down. Besides, she was now a successor of the Celestial Masters Sect.
Lying on her bed in the dormitory, Jiang Qiao's mind was in turmoil. She never expected that, by chance, she would obtain this second volume so easily.
In addition, she also wanted to know if the jade pendant had already fallen into the hands of Sato's group.
Think about how Sato was able to make that kind of elixir that made people stay young. Was it also based on the content written in the first volume of the Celestial Master's Sect? It's just that the second volume was missing, so he didn't know how to make the elixir last.
Unfortunately, she has only thoroughly studied the Bian Que Divine Scripture so far. As for the skills of her other two fellow disciples, she hasn't had time to study them yet. It seems that she should think about them carefully next.
But the thought that the Japanese soldiers still had a jade pendant in their hands made her uneasy. She felt a burning hatred that made her grit her teeth. When would she be able to completely wipe out those bastards?
Lost in thought, he fell asleep and slept soundly. Jiang Qiao didn't even know when Lei Jiao and her colleagues returned.
"Sigh, this young lady has it tough. I heard she was exhausted last night and still busy all morning. She's really amazing. With just one move, she saved Battalion Commander Song's leg. Just who is this girl? What kind of family does she come from?"
Lei Jiao shook her head. "How would I know? This is the first time I've met this girl, I really don't know."
Whether she knew it or not, only she herself knew the truth. Jiang Qiao's method of treating Battalion Commander Song reminded her of the stories her grandfather had told her. Back then, there were three brothers in her family who were masters of martial arts. In the legends, those three were incredibly skilled. She guessed that Jiang Qiao might be a successor of the other two.
Otherwise, she couldn't explain why she had the idea of giving away the book.
She didn't consider herself an impulsive person, but ever since she met Jiang Qiao, the thought had popped into her head: Jiang Qiao was the most suitable home for this book.
The female nurse in my dorm asked, "Didn't you ask Jiang Qiao to take a look at Lin Baoguo?"
Lei Jiao nodded. "Jiang Qiao examined her and said she's recovering well. I noticed she seemed a bit listless, so I didn't ask any more questions until she'd had a good night's sleep."
Originally, she brought food for Jiang Qiao, but since he was still asleep, she felt embarrassed to wake him up. Anyway, they had their own stove, so they could just heat it up and eat it.
Jiang Qiao was exhausted, but she knew the purpose of her visit. Although Song Shukun had woken up, his leg still needed further treatment, so she woke up on her own in the afternoon without anyone calling her.
Seeing the bowl of noodles on the table, he gave a wry smile. This Lei Jiao was really something else.
Jiang Qiao didn't eat the cold noodles; her appetite was more important. She took the cold noodles to the kitchen to heat them up before she ate them.
The chefs, while working, asked Jiang Qiao, "Miss, may we ask how you learned? You're so young, how come you're even more skilled than the old doctor?"
Jiang Qiao swallowed the food in her mouth and smiled. "Master, my grandfather taught me this since I was a child. Later, I became a disciple. While others were playing, I was always reading books."
During my breaks, Grandpa would take me to see doctors. Over time, I naturally learned how. I had no choice; Grandpa is getting old, and I have to find a way to earn money to support him.
Some people wondered, "Don't you have parents? Why do you need to support them?"
Jiang Qiao gave a bitter smile. "It's a long story. Back then, after my parents gave birth to me, they went to fight in the war. Later, they had their comrades send me back to my hometown. Who would have thought that we would encounter the enemy on the way? The comrade who sent me away distracted the enemy. When we looked for me again, we couldn't find me. My adoptive grandfather adopted me. I only reunited with my parents after I grew up."
Clang—
Jiang Qiao was startled by the noise behind her. When she turned around, she saw an elderly man in military uniform standing blankly at the door.
Jiang Qiao didn't recognize the other person, but she did recognize the people in the kitchen. "Secretary, what's wrong with you?"
The man stared blankly at Jiang Qiao, his emotions running high. "You, you're the child who was lost all those years ago?"
Jiang Qiao was even more confused. "Um, comrade, do you know me?"
Fu Tiancheng said with deep emotion, "Child, I'm the one who took you home—"
Jiang Qiao never expected that this trip would actually be worthwhile. She never dreamed that she would have the opportunity to meet the person who sent her back home back then.
Fu Tiancheng rushed over and pulled Jiang Qiao up and down, looking her over. "Are you really that lost child? Wait, why is your surname Jiang? You should be surnamed Gu. Your name is Gu Qiao!"
Jiang Qiao sighed, "Uncle, I took my adoptive grandmother's surname. Her husband's family name is Jiang. Later, she sold me to my grandfather. However, my adoptive grandfather didn't change my surname, saying it was too much trouble."
Later, when my parents reunited with me, they felt that my adoptive grandfather needed me by his side more, so they didn't change my surname.
Fu Tiancheng's eyes were red. He pulled Jiang Qiao close, looking guilty. "It's all my fault. If I hadn't hidden you away back then, you wouldn't have been lost."
"My child, I've searched for you for so many years, and I've finally found you. I'm so sorry to your parents."
