Chapter 1242: Physician
Clang—clang...
As the train pulled into the station, the staff on the platform yawned lazily.
"This should be the last train for today, right?"
"Yes, we're off work after this one."
"That's great... We've been getting off work earlier every day recently."
"Do you think that's a good thing? The Tian-Shu Realm is surrounded. If something really happens, our South Sea won't be spared!"
"Speaking of which, our South Sea shouldn't be surrounded by Calamities, right..."
"What kind of bullshit are you talking about!! Can't you hope for something good?"
“……”
While the staff on the platform were talking, the train had finished docking.
After all the passengers got off, they took various cleaning tools and walked into the carriage...
"...Hmm? Is it my imagination?" one of the staff members rubbed his eyes.
"What?"
"This carriage... why does it feel like it's a head taller than the others?"
The staff member used the broom head in his hand to poke the reshaped interlayer, which made a hollow thumping sound... He suspiciously walked around it, then widened his eyes and cursed.
A hole just big enough for one person to enter and exit, dark and deep.
……
"So it was you."
In the moving car, Pu Xiachan turned to look at the indifferent black-clad figure. "Do you remember me? We met in the Wu-Ji Realm. My name is Pu Xiachan."
Han Meng said faintly:
"I remember."
"You really remember?" Pu Xiachan looked at him suspiciously.
"At that time, I saw you and several others protecting civilians as they retreated," Han Meng glanced back at her.
"During this time, I have also learned about what happened in the last two years and read some people's files... The leader of the [Translation] path of the Book God, a young genius of the Pu family, one of the holders of the Heaven-Reaching Star Position—Miss Pu's name is known to almost all the high-level officials of the five realms."
Han Meng's words made Pu Xiachan feel a bit embarrassed. She wanted to suppress the corners of her mouth but found that she couldn't control her smile, so she could only cough awkwardly twice:
"Officer Han Meng is too kind... Anyway, why did you suddenly come to the South Sea? Is something the matter?"
Han Meng looked out the window in silence and didn't answer.
Seeming to sense the awkwardness in the air, the young man in the passenger seat turned his head and took the initiative to reach out to Han Meng:
"Brother Han, I am Pu Chunshu, Xiachan's second brother... Before we came, the old man specifically instructed me to treat you well in the South Sea Realm. If you have any needs, just tell me, don't be polite."
Han Meng shook hands with Pu Chunshu out of politeness and gave a faint "hmm."
Afterward, he continued to look out the window, saying nothing, wondering what he was thinking...
Seeing this, Pu Xiachan knew that Han Meng didn't want to mention the reason for his coming to the South Sea Realm. Although she had a hundred questions in her heart, she was too embarrassed to ask more.
She couldn't understand. As one of the few remaining Law Enforcers in the world and a Seventh-Order [Judgment] leader, such strength was rare even in the five realms. What exactly did he do to make the high-level officials of several realms dissatisfied with him, even to the point of exiling him from the Tian-Shu Realm?
Pu Xiachan made up her mind that when she went back, she would definitely pester the elders in the family to see if she could find out some information.
The vehicle drove through the streets of the South Sea Realm.
Behind a window across the street,
a figure in a brown coat and black-rimmed glasses was carrying a delicate figure up the steps and pushed open the door of the clinic.
"We're already closed for the day, come back tomorrow," the physician, who was packing up to leave, said without looking up.
Bang—!!
Chen Ling waved his hand casually, a shadow flashed from beneath him, and the clinic door slammed shut and locked, giving the physician a fright.
He gently placed the sleeping Xiao Tao on the examination bed. The next second, a cold, gleaming boning knife was pressed against the physician's neck!
"You... you you you..." The physician looked at the cold face before him, too nervous to speak for a moment.
"I heard you are a famous expert of the Medical God Path on this street."
Chen Ling gestured with his chin toward Xiao Tao on the bed and said in a commanding tone, "Cure her."
The physician swallowed. He could feel the Fifth-Order peak aura on Chen Ling and didn't dare say another word, trembling as he walked toward the bed...
The physician carefully took off Xiao Tao's hood, saw a pair of furry ears pop out, was stunned for a moment, and then retreated several steps in terror!!
"She... she is a Fusionist??!"
"What... Fusionist, you don't know how to treat them?" Chen Ling's gaze immediately became sharp.
"No... no! Fusionists are mutated monsters, lunatics, enemies of humanity!! You... you are people from the Fusion Faction?? How did you sneak into the South Sea Realm?? The South Sea Realm shouldn't have disgusting..."
Seeing Xiao Tao's ears, the physician's expression went out of control. He looked as if he had seen some taboo existence and scrambled to escape.
But before he could finish his sentence, a palm flying with red paper whistled toward his face!
Slap—!!
The physician's figure flew out like a kite with a broken string, floating for several meters in the air, knocking over several cabinets before lying on the ground like a dead dog...
The brown coat slowly stepped over the messy floor, and several red paper tentacles bound the physician's body, lifting him into the air like a chick.
Chen Ling's gaze toward him was as if from the underworld.
"Cure her," Chen Ling repeated,
"Otherwise... die."
The threat of death made the physician's consciousness, blurred by the slap, quickly regain clarity. He didn't dare say another word about Fusionists, but opened his bloody mouth full of broken teeth and stammered:
"Big brother... it's not that I won't save her... the toxin in her body comes from a Calamity of the Bitter Flesh Turbid Forest..."
"I... I am just a Third-Order Medical God Path... my level is limited..."
"Calamity toxin... I... I can't cure it."
A chill spread through the clinic.
"Can't cure it?" The red paper binding the physician's body tightened, almost making him unable to breathe. "Who nearby can cure it!"
"Those... those great doctors above the Fifth-Order..."
"Where are they?!"
"They... most of them... have been sent to support the Tian-Shu Realm... and some... have already been protected by the South Sea Lord... they won't show themselves easily..."
Hearing this, Chen Ling's face turned extremely gloomy.
Chen Ling had thought that in the South Sea Realm, which possessed the Medical Path Ancient Treasury, finding a Medical God Path practitioner who could treat Xiao Tao wouldn't be difficult. But now it seemed the situation was far more complicated than he had imagined...
These Second or Third-Order physicians couldn't cure Xiao Tao's illness, and the high-level physicians were protected by the South Sea Lord, probably to deal with subsequent wars in other realms at any time... In that case, who else could he find?
Could it be that he had to go directly to the South Sea Lord to ask for someone?
