Chapter 173 Mirage
After confirming that he couldn't find any trace of that person, Ling Yunxiao walked into the courtyard and found that Luanping was still there. Without thinking of anything else, he went over and asked him.
"You mean, you saw the old man in the straw raincoat?"
"Huh? He doesn't have a name? I thought he was a senior member of the Night's Watch living in seclusion here. You're a special team leader, you should have seen him before. You guys haven't seen him either, have you?"
Ling Yunxiao was completely astonished. What kind of deity had he encountered?
Luanping smiled and shook his head, then casually pointed to the bright sunshine in the sky.
"That person never appeared in anyone's courtyard; Lu Sheng only saw his figure. I heard that when this place was first built, even the Celestial Venerable of Morality only saw his figure, but when he went to look for him, he did not find him."
Sigh... That person only appears on sunny days, so that figure is probably just a mirage reflected in the lake, and his real self may not be here.
Therefore, he always appeared only in the far distance, his calls went unanswered, and he never met anyone.
After Luan Ping finished explaining, Ling Yunxiao didn't say anything more, but he felt that the person was definitely not as simple as a mirage. After all, the reason he had been eyeing the other person's wine earlier was because he had faintly smelled its aroma. Who has the scent of wine emanating from their shadows?
"Alright, let's not talk about the old man in the straw raincoat anymore. Xiaoxiao and the others have prepared some food and wine. It's rare for us to get together again, so let's have a drink together!"
Luanping smiled and pointed to another courtyard not far in front of the small courtyard. Ling Yunxiao looked in the direction he was pointing and saw Xiaoxiao and Jiang Er busy at work, while the aunt was chatting and laughing with An Qingyu.
In his own courtyard, only Luanping was waiting for him.
After putting down his things, Ling Yunxiao did not go to Luanping's courtyard.
"Captain Luan, your wife's food will probably take a while to arrive. Why don't you take me to the sanatorium first? Commander Zuo told me before that there are many people bedridden here, and some injured people who are completely unable to take care of themselves."
"Oh, OK!"
Luanping naturally wouldn't refuse, and immediately led Ling Yunxiao to the other side of the forest.
After walking for a while, Luanping stopped. The two of them were standing in front of a vermilion courtyard gate. After Luanping gently pushed open the gate, several sighs came from inside.
"I don't know why, but all the nurses and caregivers here left without saying a word?"
"Headquarters won't agree to let us die peacefully, don't worry!"
"If I really agree, that would be great. I'm a useless person now, and living is just a waste of food."
"Sigh... There's no way such a good thing could happen. Maybe Commander Ye is just wasting resources again by inviting some famous doctor to treat us."
"Ugh……"
Ling Yunxiao paused slightly, and upon hearing these sounds, he suddenly felt his steps become heavy.
So he didn't go any further, but instead took out the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen.
"heal"
"remove"
"To treat everyone, cure their illnesses, and restore their limbs, a total of 10,000 points of Reincarnation Power were consumed..."
After Ling Yunxiao confirmed without hesitation, beams of warm golden light enveloped everyone present.
A moment later, some people were shocked to find that their broken and withered limbs had grown back, while others found that their internal organs, which used to cause excruciating pain when they breathed, were now warm and comfortable, without any pain at all.
"what……"
"Hahaha……"
As everyone stood up, cheering, they ran out of the ward and saw Ling Yunxiao standing smiling at the door, not yet inside.
"I am Ling Yunxiao from the [Unwavering] team. Hello."
Seeing the healthy and excited faces, Ling Yunxiao raised his hand and gave everyone a military salute.
The initially excited crowd silently reddened their eyes upon seeing who it was. They had naturally heard of Ling Yunxiao's deeds. They had never imagined that the nurses and caregivers left because they would recover, let alone that this top healer from the special team, who had never been within the Great Xia territory, would come to treat them.
At that moment, they excitedly returned the exact same salute to Ling Yunxiao.
"Everyone, I just arrived here today and have other matters to attend to. Now that you have recovered, whether you stay or return to Great Xia, make your decision and then go find Lu Sheng. I'll be leaving now!"
Before these excited people could say anything, Ling Yunxiao had already turned around, grabbed Luanping, and left quickly. In the past, he had mostly treated his teammates, and everyone was used to their calm and accepting gazes. Now, facing so many grateful and excited eyes, he still felt somewhat embarrassed.
Back in Cangnan, very few ordinary people knew that he was the one who saved them. Now, having saved so many people in front of him, Ling Yunxiao felt somewhat shy under those intense gazes and immediately turned and fled.
"Hahaha... You're not young anymore, and you're a chief physician by training, why are you being shy!"
Luanping followed behind Ling Yunxiao, laughing heartily.
Ling Yunxiao curled his lips. This body was in its early thirties, and considering the various time folds in this world, it was indeed almost forty years old.
The reality is that I'm actually a college student writing a thesis. Since arriving in this world, only a year or two have passed without considering various accelerated formations. If I hadn't transmigrated to this world, I'd probably still be in school, writing my graduate thesis somewhere!
Alas... these words cannot be spoken aloud.
Ling Yunxiao shrugged helplessly and soon arrived at Luanping's house. Wang Mian and An Qingyu were already sitting at the dining table, seemingly waiting for the two of them to return.
After Ling Yunxiao and the others had drunk a few rounds of drinks, Luan Ping suddenly smiled somewhat embarrassedly.
"Back then, Xiangnan didn't come in with all of us from Blue Rain. Instead, he went back to the Masked Squad. He said that Libra needed him more than I did, and that bringing us back would fulfill his wish."
Sigh... How has he been all these years?
"It's great! It's just that the special team is very busy, as you know, so he probably doesn't have time to come see you. However, I heard that you've all settled down and started families here, so he must know that too."
"Yes, of course. He sent a gift when Xiaoxiao and I got married."
Haha...we're relieved that he's doing well.
Luanping smiled, picked up a full glass of wine, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Captain Luan, I'm actually quite curious as to why you're staying here."
Ling Yunxiao was genuinely curious. He had just healed the Night Watchmen, and when they heard they could leave, their eyes lit up. Clearly, all of them wanted to return to the battlefield.
Luanping drank another large glass of wine, then looked up for a long time without speaking. Only after Ling Yunxiao looked away and he drank two more glasses of wine did he finally speak softly.
