Chapter 583 - The famous physician in the city

Chapter 583

(Unedited)

…

It has already been a month since Shin Jiao came to this unknown new world which Shin Jiao suspected to be still a part of the cultivation land or within the planet Gaeus Ro. In this one month, he has done a lot of things especially in improving the medical aspect of the small city of Yun Ji.

His name has become known throughout the city and even the other towns and villages surrounding the small city have known of this.

Shin Jiao planned for this as he wanted to gain enough fame to be able to enter the capital city with the purpose of meeting the emperor.

Not only did he made a name for himself, but he has also taught a lot of modern medical techniques and practices, though not that in-depth but enough to gain popularity among the doctors. And so his name grew in fame not only among the commoners but also in the medical community.

However, there is another name that accompanies his fame; he is also known for his cowardice. This is because when someone challenges him or would seek a fight he would run without a second word. The reason for this is that he gained information from the eldest young miss of Doctor Di's house that in the past before his amnesia, he was known as such.

In the capital, he was known to be a playboy, a wastrel, and a coward. These three things basically describe the real Qiong Ji. Hence upon knowing this, he acted the same way, and it all started at that time in the forest.

…

It was a beautiful sunny morning, and today, Shin Jiao is preparing for his long journey to the capital. As he walks down the road the people who see him would greet him with smiles on their faces.

"Hi, Doctor Ji! Good morning!"

"Good morning, Doctor Ji!"

The people would greet him like so and with eyes twinkling. It's either they would fawn on him or look at him like he is gold. Many women and families have already expressed their intension for marriage, but he turns them down saying that he already has a fiancé. And this is according to the eldest young miss of the Di family.

However, no one ever bothers to listen to him and many have their plans and plots to have this young and promising doctor in their family.

Soon he arrives at one of the most famous restaurants within the city. Shin Jiao walked up the stairs and arrive at a certain table where two people are waiting.

All of this time, he has been close to the two siblings the oldest son and eldest daughter of Doctor Di, Bailao Di, and Xia Di. Although a bit prideful at first, but Bailao Di has something good about him. He is willing to forgo his pride in the pursuit of his medical studies and advancement. Hence in this 1 month, he would always be behind Shin Jiao learning many things.

"You two are early; I was still preparing my stuff…" Shin Jiao said as he takes a seat.

"Pfft… what stuff. You don't even have anything in that small room of yours." Xia Di scoffs with a smirk.

Her attitude towards him didn't change even though they became friends.

"Yeah, young Qiong. Why don't you buy some new stuff? With the amount of money you are earning now, you could afford a new place and some new stuff right?"

"Che, he's not like your elder brother. You like to squander money buying useless stuff."

"Hey, hey, you can't say that… you're the one to talk. You are the one who does nothing all day but goes shopping and spend."

"I'm a proper lady you know. That's what a proper lady does. Go shopping and spend the money on her family… Hihi…"

"Shameless…"

The two began to bicker as always, and after all this time, Shin Jiao has been used to both of them doing this.

The three have a sumptuous lunch and talked about their plans for going to the capital the next day. After lunch, Shin Jiao walked back to the infirmary. On his way, he suddenly saw someone whom he recognizes. It was the young woman who is very welcoming and has treated him warmly in the Mountain Beast Sect, Daixa Fengdi. Behind her are some of the young women of the sect and among them is also a familiar figure, Lin Baojing.

Upon seeing the group, Shin Jiao wanted to hide, but it was already too late as their gazes met. With a startled expression, Shin Jiao suddenly turn around and was about to run when a man carrying a heavy sack came to his vision.

With a quick reaction, he suddenly moves to the side and heaves a sigh of relief after seeing that he didn't cause an accident.

However, before he could make another move, the figure of Daixa Fengdi appear in his sight as the woman looks at him with surprise.

"It's really you… You… you're alive." She exclaimed.

Behind her are some of the female disciples of the sect. They all had a curious expression on their faces and began discussing among themselves as to who this young man is and why does their senior sister Daixa Fengdi knows the guy?

But among them, Lin Baojing has a different reaction. Her eyes are showing fear and uneasiness. She remembers what happened at that time and that this unassuming young man is actually a very strong master. She is afraid that these fellow junior disciples of hers would offend this master.

"Ahem, we should leave now… the senior brothers are already waiting for us." Lin Baojing suddenly interrupted.

Upon hearing her words, the rest of the women seem to realize something and nodded their heads.

"You guys go first…" Daixa Fengdi said.

As the girls walked away, Shin Jiao nodded his head towards Lin Baojing with a slight smile as a sign of gratefulness.

After the girls walked away, a passerby suddenly stops and grabs Shin Jiao's hands.

"You… you're doctor Ji, right?" a man in his 30's suddenly asked.

Shin Jiao looks at the man grabbing his hand and wanted to fling it away. However, he subconsciously peers inside the man's body and saw something which made him a bit astounded.

From his absolute sense, he could see traces of dark Qi inside the man. It seems that the dark Qi is being suppressed by this place and is unable to manifest itself. But it is making the man's body slowly rot. If it is on earth, that black Qi is like cancer slowly eating the man from deep within. However, what baffled him is that when he made contact with the man, the dark Qi suddenly came into life and wanted to invade his body.

This is the reason why he subconsciously extended his absolute sense toward the man.

"Yes, what seems to be the problem?" Shin Jiao asked with a knitted brow.

"It's our village… something terrible has happened. Many people are getting sick and even our village doctors are incapable of doing anything. They even got sick themselves." The man said with a sad expression.

Shin Jiao squinted his eyes and looks at the man seriously. He then took the man to the side of the road and wanted to talk to him. But he soon noticed a curious individual following them.

"Umn… Senior sister Fengdi, this is something I must do… So…"

"Oh, don't mind me. I'm just here to observe." She said with a smile.

She is not an uncultured and uninformed young woman. When the man called Shin Jiao, 'Doctor Ji', she was a bit confused, however, she soon remember the rumors about a miraculous doctor working for the city infirmary. She never would have thought that the unassuming young man at that time within the sect is actually very famous in the city. Why he was there and how he escaped still baffled her. She even thought that he died in the hands of that mythical beast, the Bloody Bony Tiger. But who would have thought that the beast was found dead not long after the battle?

It was reported that the beast encounters another strong beast that has sucked its essence.

Now that she saw him again with a new identity, how could she not be curious? So she decided to observe him more.

Shin Jiao felt helpless and decided to not mind her. He listened to the man's story and got the gist of things that are happening to that village. He even discovered that the doctors in the city didn't dare go there even after the village sent out for help.

"Your village is Huaxing Village, right?" Shin Jiao suddenly asked.

"Yes, doctor… that is our village."

"Eh?! I thought the rumor about a plague going on in there was just stories. So it is true then?!" Daixa Fengdi exclaimed.

Her sect has also heard of the supposed plague in that village which was locked down by the city guards. But the question is how did this man escape the village?

"Alright, I will go there now. We have to hasten as I still need to prepare to go to the capital tomorrow." Shin Jiao said.

"Wait… you are going to the capital? What for?"

"I need to go home…"

"Really? You're from the capital… Hmm… Are you from the Ji family?" Daixa Fengdi suddenly asked.

When Shin Jiao saw her thinking, he was a bit curious.

"Why? Do you know the Ji family?"

"Umn… A little bit. But, I would suggest you not to go back."

"Why is that?"

"Huh? Why ask when you know the reason?…" she said with a knitted brow.

She didn't know why this young man is acting weird.

"I… I forgot a lot of things from the war. I was wounded at that time and seem to forget about myself." Shin Jiao explained.

Upon hearing this, Daixa Fengdi showed a bit of a surprise on her face. She never expected that she would hear such a thing. But then, she was really curious about him, so she decided to follow this guy.

"Let's go to the village first, and then we can talk about the capital." Daixa Fengdi said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go…" Shin Jiao replied as he let the man lead them.

"Yes, thank you doctor Ji…" the man said as he bowed.

However, as he lowered his gaze the side of his mouth slightly crept into a secret smile.
