Upon hearing this, the Ghost Doctor was shocked and immediately stood up. He looked Yun Qingluo up and down and asked suspiciously, "You cured him? Not only was his leg crippled, but he was also poisoned. It wasn't even poison; it was a Gu poison that only exists in the Southern Frontier. You're just a little girl. This must be your first time in the Southern Frontier, right? How could you possibly cure him?"
Seeing this, Yun Qingluo didn't say anything. Instead, she used her sleeve to cover herself and took out a small glass bottle containing penicillin from the system, then handed it to the Ghost Doctor.
"Oh, right, and these are a few more." Yun Qingluo took out a few more items, all of which were modern medicines, but Xiao Yi and he had modified them to suit the ancient era. For example, the capsules and granules had been turned into powder.
Powder form is easier to explain than granular form.
The Ghost Doctor, looking completely bewildered, took the items, brought them to his nose, and immediately his expression changed drastically. He then told them to leave on their own and vanished.
I guess he went to research medicine.
Yun Qingluo turned to look at Mo Beichen, "Achen, let's go too. We can just go back and wait for news."
Yun Qingluo and the others went back to wait for news. Less than a day later, someone came to inform them that the Ghost Doctor wanted to see them and had agreed to their conditions.
Mo Beichen's expression suddenly changed, and his expression softened noticeably.
"Luo Luo, there's hope." Mo Beichen murmured to himself, his voice filled with surprise.
Yun Qingluo was somewhat puzzled, "Xiao Yi, could it be that there really are immortals in this world? If modern high technology can't solve these problems, do the ancients really have a way? Or is it because of some secret technique?"
Xiao Yi's tone was also filled with intense curiosity, "Go and see for yourself. We shouldn't underestimate the ancients. Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs, and the Compendium of Materia Medica are classics that ordinary people couldn't write. And the secret techniques that Old Zhou mentioned earlier are probably because of this. It's really strange. Even I couldn't find any foreign objects in your body, but that ghost doctor could tell at a glance that you didn't have long to live. It's really rare."
Yun Qingluo relaxed her brow. "Yes, we'll know once we go and see."
The two stepped into the ghost market again. When they arrived at the alley entrance, the alley was not as dark as it had been the last time. It was brightly lit, and the lights were even more dazzling than before.
The person leading them explained, "The Ghost Doctor only ever serves one guest at a time and never accepts repeat customers. You are the first ones here. These lights indicate that the Ghost Doctor is already occupied, and no one else is allowed to bother him."
Upon hearing this explanation, Yun Qingluo glanced at Mo Beichen and saw him staring at the brightest lamp at the end of the alley.
"What's wrong, A-Chen?" Yun Qingluo nudged his sleeve.
Mo Beichen took Yun Qingluo's hand and walked inside. "It's alright, let's go in."
As soon as they entered the courtyard, the Ghost Doctor came to greet them. Unlike his previous coldness, he was very enthusiastic. "Oh, Yun girl, you've finally arrived! Come, come, sit here. Is this your first time at the Ghost Market? There are lots of delicious things to eat here. I bought them all. Try them!"
Yun Qingluo was somewhat surprised, and she didn't have time to hide her expression. Mo Beichen frowned slightly. Why was this old man suddenly being so attentive?
"The Ghost Doctor sent us here just to eat?" Mo Beichen couldn't help but look at the pastries on the table and speak coldly.
Among these pastries were some of Luo Luo's favorites. He and Luo Luo had never met, so how could he know Luo Luo's tastes? Thinking of this, Mo Beichen's expression grew even colder.
The Ghost Doctor glanced at Mo Beichen, paused for a moment, as if only just noticing his presence, "Oh dear, you're here too. Didn't I say that just calling Yun girl would be enough? How come Changfeng can't even handle such a small matter..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Beichen's face darkened. The Ghost Doctor curled his lip and said, "Ah, it's even better that you're here. Let's all try it together."
Yun Qingluo was somewhat curious. The Ghost Doctor seemed to be a little afraid of Mo Beichen, but he didn't care about Mo Beichen. She didn't want to think about it if she couldn't figure it out.
However, the Ghost Doctor of today seems to be somewhat different. Why is that?
Yun Qinglu raised an eyebrow, standing next to Mo Beichen without moving. "The Ghost Doctor is too kind. Please speak frankly. If you really have no solution, we will not make things difficult for you."
But the implication is that you have no chance of getting any information about those medicines.
Upon hearing Yun Qingluo's words, the Ghost Doctor glanced at her and smiled inexplicably. "Come and sit down. I'll tell you whatever you want to know, okay?"
Her words carried a hint of doting affection, which made Mo Beichen's eyebrows twitch. He resisted the urge to turn around and leave immediately, and instead led Yun Qingluo to sit down at the table.
The Ghost Doctor pushed a plate of pastries in front of Yun Qingluo, gesturing for her to try them, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Yun Qingluo was completely out of sorts, her mind was totally blank.
Xiao Yi interjected, "How come this person is completely different overnight? Could he have been switched? But I just scanned him and everything is normal, except for his excited heart and trembling hands. I don't know what he's so excited about."
Yun Qingluo was very puzzled. She was absolutely certain that yesterday was the first time she had met the Ghost Doctor, so why did he seem to know her so well now?
The pastries on the table were all her favorites, and one or two of them didn't seem to be from Southern Xinjiang; they looked more like...
Something suddenly flashed through Yun Qingluo's mind. He watched as the Ghost Doctor across from him took out the medicine she had given him yesterday, his fingers tracing the patterns on the bottle, his eyes filled with a touch of nostalgia.
Does he know about the Valley of Divine Healers?
"What is your relationship with Master? Could it be that you are Master's junior brother?" Yun Qingluo suddenly asked, her tone tinged with nervousness.
The Ghost Doctor's expression froze. Mo Beichen raised an eyebrow, glanced at Yun Qingluo, then at the Ghost Doctor, seemingly understanding something, and said nothing more.
Seeing the Ghost Doctor's state, Yun Qingluo knew she had guessed correctly.
When she and Mo Beichen came in, he was very indifferent. Even when he saw her condition, he was only surprised. But when she handed him the medicine, his first shock should have been at the bottle, not the medicine inside. So his loss of composure was because of the unique medicine bottle of Divine Doctor Valley.
As for why he recognized me, firstly, it's because only the Valley Master of the Divine Doctor Valley can use medicine bottles with this kind of pattern; secondly, it's probably because my master once talked to me about me, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to prepare my favorite pastries so accurately.
Two of the pastries were my favorites when I was in the Valley of the Divine Healer.
The Ghost Doctor snapped out of his daze and laughed, "As expected, you are his disciple. You guessed it so quickly. You are indeed as he said, very clever. You should be called Yun Qingluo, right? You should call me Junior Uncle."
