Chapter 569 The Power and Connections Behind Ying Zijing [1st Update]
Since the establishment of the ancient medical community, there has always been a type of ancient doctor who has taken unorthodox and unorthodox methods, but there have been fewer of them in recent years.
Many who escaped were caught and brought back, but many others remain hidden in the shadows, waiting for their chance to strike.
They would create a range of drugs that affected people's nerves, caused hallucinations, and so on, and they would also capture people to make these drugs, using extremely ruthless methods.
However, these ancient doctors generally cannot be discovered unless they actively reveal themselves.
They are very well hidden.
The field of ancient medicine must completely eradicate these insidious practitioners, otherwise chaos will indeed ensue.
After all, sometimes crooked paths can help people improve their skills faster, and some people can't resist the temptation to choose this path.
As soon as Hall Master Fang said this, the other hall masters began to whisper among themselves.
The deputy leader also frowned.
Ying Zijing has a bright future ahead of her, that's for sure.
However, she is currently only a Level 4 member, and there are thousands of Level 4 members in the Dan Alliance.
Only Level 5 members can contact the Deputy Alliance Leader directly without going through the Hall Master.
"Master Fang, how can you be so sure that the former head of the Xu family was poisoned without even having an autopsy?" Master Li sneered. "Did you see it with your own eyes? Or did he come back to life and tell you?"
"You missed a good opportunity because of your own stupidity, and you're taking it out on Miss Ying, aren't you? Are you having so much fun settling personal scores?"
Lu Xu, whom Master Fang sent to the Heavenly Medicine Sect, was expelled a few days later for making a mistake.
Furthermore, after learning that Lu Xu had obtained the spot by impersonating Lin Qingjia, the Tianyi Sect added him to the blacklist.
Lu Xu's descendants within three generations after him will not be able to enter the Heavenly Medicine Sect.
Fang Tangzhu was naturally affected, and the Heavenly Doctor Sect completely severed ties with him.
Forget about climbing the ranks through the Heavenly Medicine Sect, there's no chance left at all.
Master Fang regretted it.
He was even more resentful after seeing many ancient martial arts and medical families go to the Ye family to befriend Ying Zijin.
"Master Li, some things can't be said carelessly," Master Fang said, his tone sharp but his voice weak. "Didn't he die from taking Ying Zijing's medicine?"
Master Li scoffed, "Even if someone dies after taking medicine, it doesn't necessarily mean it's related to the medicine. I could say he had a heart attack because he was so excited after finally recovering."
Master Fang's face flushed red: "You—"
"Alright," an old man said calmly, "An autopsy is indeed necessary, but what Master Fang said makes a lot of sense."
Master Fang respectfully greeted, "Third Elder."
The Fourth Elder, standing next to the Third Elder, was even more agitated: "If she has truly gone astray, she must be eliminated! Just because she is a genius in alchemy, does that mean she can disregard the rules?"
He slammed his hand on the table: "No, it's precisely because she's a genius at alchemy that once she masters it, no one will be able to control her! Don't you realize how dangerous this kind of ancient medicine is for us?!"
"Fourth brother," the Third Elder frowned, "the matter is not yet settled, don't bring personal emotions into it."
The Fourth Elder fell silent, his eyes filled with deep-seated hatred.
His son, daughter-in-law, grandchildren, and other relatives were all captured by a wicked ancient doctor and taken away to make medicine.
When he found them, only incomplete skeletons remained of the four people.
But this insidious ancient doctor has not been found to this day.
The vice leader pondered for a long time, then tapped the table: "This matter needs to be considered carefully. First, stop her supply of medicinal herbs, and go to the Xu family to get the body of their former patriarch for an autopsy."
"Also, send a message to the Tianyi Sect, the Fu family, the Meng family, and several other ancient medical families, and hold a meeting to see what they think."
This matter concerns the entire field of ancient medicine, and it cannot be simply resolved hastily.
However, if the Xu family head was indeed poisoned to death after taking the medicine concocted by Ying Zijin, then for the sake of peace and the future of the ancient medical community, it is better to kill ten thousand innocent people than to let one guilty person go free.
**
In the world of ancient martial arts.
Fu Chen and Fu Xi were also invited.
But Fu Chen dared not sit down. He squatted by the lake and fished with stones with Yun Shan, who had returned from the court.
Yunshan knew Fuchen.
He had seen portraits of those geniuses in the fields of ancient medicine and martial arts.
Know your enemy and know yourself, and you will never be defeated.
Yunshan watched as Fu Chen threw stones into the lake, catching a fish with each throw, and finally couldn't help but ask, "You cultivate both ancient medicine and ancient martial arts?"
"Huh? What's wrong?" Fu Chen threw another stone, this time creating a large one. "Is there a problem?"
Yunshan: "..."
That's perfect.
He could sense that Fu Chen's ancient martial arts cultivation was not low, probably no worse than his own.
But the problem is, isn't Fu Chen a traditional Chinese medicine doctor?
How could an ancient doctor's martial arts skills be the same as his?
Yunshan was devastated. He placed a basket of fish next to the grill and humbly began to grill the fish.
Yunwu went to the backyard to kill a chicken.
At the other end of the courtyard, the food was all laid out.
Only then did Fu Chen dare to go over and sit down shakily next to Fu Xi.
Steak is not found in the ancient martial arts world; Fu Yunshen had it specially delivered from outside.
After cutting it up, he fed it to the girl piece by piece.
Fu Xi's hand trembled, and with her more than two hundred years of ancient martial arts cultivation, she couldn't even hold the chopsticks.
She still hasn't been able to accept who her master will be with.
Fu Chen asked in bewilderment, "Ancestor?"
Fu Xi sighed and said softly, "When you live for a long time, it's hard to watch the people around you leave one by one before you."
Her husband, children, and even grandchildren all died before her.
Without Ying Zijin's guidance, it is indeed very difficult to cultivate both ancient medicine and ancient martial arts at the same time.
She has survived to this day because of her ancient martial arts skills, but others cannot.
“Master, I have a favor to ask. My time is almost up, and I don’t know how many more years I have left.” Fu Xi clasped his hands in a fist and asked, “Please teach this boy how to cultivate ancient martial arts without affecting his ancient medical skills.”
“His ancient martial arts cultivation is too low, currently only thirty years, which is not enough.”
Upon hearing this, Fu Yun raised his eyebrows thoughtfully and chuckled lazily, "This cultivation level is quite high."
Few martial arts practitioners of the same age possess such a high level of skill in ancient martial arts.
However, no one knew about Fu Chen's dual cultivation of ancient medicine and martial arts.
On the one hand, Fu Chen kept a low profile, and on the other hand, Fu Xi protected him well.
The Fu family was, after all, just a family of ancient doctors; in terms of martial arts, they couldn't compete with a family of ancient martial arts masters.
If word gets out, the Xie family will still try to eliminate the genius.
With nearly four hundred years of ancient martial arts cultivation, there are really few people in the ancient martial arts world who can withstand him.
The ancestors of the Lin family and the Yue family were at best evenly matched.
Unless the legendary first ancient martial artist is still alive.
But in all these years, no one has ever seen him.
"No trouble at all, just something I did on the spur of the moment." Ying Zijing glanced at Fu Chen, unhurriedly, "Shall I teach you a method to cultivate internal energy while you sleep?"
Fu Chen was overjoyed: "Really?"
This is practically his dream!
Such a good thing actually happened?
Fu Chen immediately knelt down and performed the apprenticeship ceremony, kowtowing repeatedly: "Grandmaster, teach me, you must teach me!"
Fu Xi restrained herself, suppressing the urge to kick Fu Chen into the lake.
She genuinely hadn't realized how lazy her junior was.
“Okay.” Ying Zijin put down her chopsticks. “Cash on delivery.”
Fu Chen: "???"
He was momentarily at a loss.
A few seconds later, Fu Chen finally realized: "Grandmaster, I have no money, only a small medicine storage room."
“That works too.” Ying Zijin believed that the medicinal herbs were more valuable than cash. “Come to the Pill Alliance in a few days to pick them up.”
Fu Chen was even more delighted: "Great!"
Since he didn't want to refine medicine anyway, giving away all the medicinal herbs suited his wishes perfectly.
"Is Master coming to the Heavenly Medicine Sect?" Fu Xi asked again. "I'll have Yu Xuan receive you."
As she spoke, she sighed again: "Yu Xuan is my youngest disciple, and he's the only one still alive."
Ying Zijing shook her head slightly: "No need, I don't have time."
Fu Xi understood.
Ying Zijing thought for a moment, then took a box from Fu Yunshen and handed it to Fu Xi.
Fu Xi was taken aback: "Master, what is this?"
"This is a cell phone. It has a miniature signal transmitter on it, so it can access the internet," Ying Zijing said. "It will be very convenient for me to contact you if anything comes up in the future."
Fu Xi nodded: "It seems that some of the younger generation in the family have played this before."
However, she hadn't left the world of ancient medicine for a long time and didn't know what the situation was like outside, only that technology was very advanced.
Fu Chen looked at the box and found it was the latest model of mobile phone. He pointed to himself and asked, "Grandmaster, what about me?"
His phone was a discarded 2G phone from the Fu family head.
Ying Zijing packed up the instruction manual as well, then looked up and asked, "Are you my apprentice?"
Fu Chen: "..."
No, he is not.
After resting for a while, Ying Zijing stood up and asked, "Would you like to go for a walk outside?"
Fu Xi naturally wanted to spend more time with her: "Go to the mortal world? Sure."
Fu Yunshen took out his phone and sent the ticket code: "I just booked a movie, you guys go see it."
Fu Xi suddenly frowned: "Master, I didn't bring my pass with me. I need to go back and get it."
Those with over fifty years of ancient martial arts cultivation must have a pass issued by the Judicial Hall.
After all, martial arts practitioners at this level have a huge impact on the general public.
Fu Yunshen turned his head and said, "Yunshan."
Yunshan immediately ran over: "Young Master."
"Pass"
"Oh, oh." Yunshan pulled out a stack of cash. "This is enough to start a fire."
Fu Yunshen took out a bill and handed it to Fu Xi: "There's more if that's not enough."
Fu Xi was also stunned: "This?"
These passes require martial arts practitioners to personally go to the Judicial Hall to obtain them, yet they can carry so many with them.
Ying Zijing yawned, remaining calm: "He is Shadow."
Fu Xi's expression changed, and she couldn't help but gasp: "Shadow?"
Ying's reputation is also very well-known in the field of ancient medicine.
Few people have seen him, and even fewer have seen his true face.
It's just a guess that he's very young, and many people speculate that he's the young master of the Martial Arts Alliance, but there's still no definitive conclusion.
It is truly remarkable that a secular person could rise to a high position in the Court of Justice.
Fu Xi began to understand why Ying Zijing had chosen Fu Yunshen.
later.
Fu Chen walked with Fu Yunshen, and he finally felt less pressured.
"Brother Fu, are you really not afraid?" Fu Chen lowered his voice. "My ancestors, this is my ancestors' ancestors, and you—"
His gaze held a hint of awe.
His legs went weak just looking at Ying Zijing.
That's awesome.
He was practically his idol.
Fu Yunshen: "You called me by the wrong name."
Fu Chen: "?"
“You should call me—” Fu Yunshen buttoned up his shirt, raised his eyelids and smiled, “Ancestor.”
"..."
**
The next morning.
All the major forces in the ancient medical community received the message from the Pill Alliance.
Both the Heavenly Doctor Sect and the Fu family take matters very seriously when it comes to evil doctors.
Dream Home.
"Sigh, see, I knew she couldn't possibly be such a genius." The Meng family head clicked his tongue in amazement as he held the letter sent by the Pill Alliance. "So she took the crooked path? Now that she's been exposed, she's in trouble."
The Meng family poured all their resources into nurturing a peerless genius like Meng Qingxue among the younger generation.
Ying Zijin is a distant relative of the Ye family. She had no master to teach her before joining the Pill Alliance. How could she have such a high level of alchemy skills?
If that's the case, then everything makes sense.
Meng Qingxue had just finished taking her medicine and came out in a wheelchair. Hearing this, she asked curiously, "Father, what are you saying?"
"Regarding that newly emerged alchemy genius from the Pill Alliance, Ying Zijing," the head of the Meng family said with a letter, "the Pill Alliance says she poisoned someone to death with her medicine and is now suspected of being an evil doctor. They want the Meng family to hold a meeting to discuss it."
As he spoke, he sighed again, "Luckily, the Meng family didn't succeed in recruiting him."
Meng Qingxue was slightly taken aback: "Poisoned to death?"
Ancient medicine was for saving lives. Even if the person to be treated was extremely wicked, it was not under the jurisdiction of ancient medicine. At most, they would not be treated.
Meng Qingxue pursed her lips: "That's impossible, she..."
"The autopsy is underway, and we don't know the results yet. There's a meeting this afternoon, and I'll be going there," said the head of the Meng family. "If she really is an evil doctor, the Dan Alliance's intention is to find out the power behind her and eradicate it completely."
Why do I always have a dream that makes me want to write it into a novel?
Be a decent human being.
