Ning Chen took out an ancient scroll from his bosom and placed the exceptionally precious petal into the scroll before returning it to his bosom.
After that, he turned around and walked toward Jing Ke and Gongsun Liji.
He walked up to Gongsun Liji, who was still half a head taller than him, and extended his hand to her.
"Put your hand out and let me see the condition of your body.”
Gongsun Liji extended her left hand. Her jade-like hands were as white as jade, and her fingers were as slender as white onions.
Ning Chen held her smooth wrist, closed his eyes, and gently felt her pulse.
Jing Ke held his breath and didn't dare to disturb him, while Gongsun Liji's limpid eyes were curiously sizing up the young man in front of her.
Her hair was black and smooth, her eyebrows were straight, her eyelashes were long and thick, her nose bridge was high, her lips were red and her teeth were white, and her skin was as white as jade. She could not help but give off a calm and mysterious feeling that did not match her age. She also gave off an ethereal feeling that made people unable to help but want to explore.
Gongsun Liji was no exception.
Ning Chen opened his eyes. Gongsun Liji, who was sizing him up, was shocked. Her wrist trembled and she hurriedly looked away.
"The situation in her body is indeed not too good. There are a total of seven hidden injuries in her body. If not for the internal energy flowing in her body, I'm afraid she would have long been unable to hold on.”Ning Chen said as he looked at Gongsun Liji.
"Ah, the Seventh Bureau? But the doctor said there were only five places in other places.”Jing Ke was a little suspicious. Indeed, the young man's swordsmanship in front of him was enough to make him feel ashamed, but his medical skills were hard to say.
Ning Chen ignored him. Instead, he looked into Gongsun Liji's eyes and said,""Do you want to believe me or not?"
She didn't know why, but looking at his clear and calm eyes, Gongsun Liji somehow felt that what he said was right. She nodded slightly.
" Junior Sister…" Jing Ke was helpless.
Under her gaze, Ning Chen revealed a beautiful smile. In Gongsun Liji's eyes, that smile was like a lotus flower blooming on an ice river, like a breeze blowing from under the roof in summer, or like water to drink when thirsty. It was refreshing.
She couldn't help but look away, her face burning under the veil.
"There are two hidden diseases in your body that are hidden very deeply. One is caused by your innate weak body near the Shanzhong acupoint, and the other is caused by the cold air attack when the red dragon came. This hidden disease near the Guanyuan acupoint will cause your lower abdomen to hurt in rainy and cold weather.”
Ning Chen looked at her and said.
When she heard the word 'red dragon', her face under the veil blushed slightly and she secretly spat in her heart.
"Little brother, you really know medicine. You're right. My junior sister does have this problem, and it's been many years.”
Jing Ke hurriedly nodded. "Then how should I treat him?"
Gongsun Liji also looked at Ning Chen.
Ning Chen looked at her." Your seven hidden diseases are not difficult to treat. I can indeed treat them, but it will take a lot of time."”
"How long will it take to completely cure it?"
Jing Ke asked.
"About two months."
Hearing this, Jing Ke and Gongsun Liji looked at each other and saw the dilemma in each other's eyes.
The two of them were still wanted by the Qin army. How could they stay in the same place for two months?
"Senior Brother, why don't we forget about it?" Gongsun Liji said gently.
"No, if it really doesn't work, I'll bring you to Chu Country and go to that Mirror Lake to find Master Nian Duan. Her medical skills are extremely high and she will definitely cure you very quickly.”
Jing Ke said firmly.
Junior Sister's illness could not be delayed any longer. The doctor he had previously found told him that this kind of hidden illness would damage the body's vitality the longer it was delayed. Moreover, they were still on the way to being hunted down. If they could not cure it, Junior Sister's body would become weaker and weaker until she could not walk on the way. That was unacceptable.
"Even if you go to Mirror Lake now, you won't be able to see her.”
Ning Chen said leisurely," There was a plague in the south of Chu State. Not long ago, she brought her disciples down the mountain to save people.”
Jing Ke's body stiffened. He turned his head stiffly and looked at Ning Chen.
"How did you know?"
"I left with them from Mirror Lake a month ago. How could I not know?”
Ning Chen tilted his head and looked at him.
Jing Ke lowered his head and clenched his fists. Gongsun Liji looked at him worriedly.
"Senior Brother…"
"Little brother!" Jing Ke suddenly raised his head and looked at Ning Chen. With a solemn expression, he took out a long roll of sheepskin from his bosom.
"There's a sword technique called Five Steps Killing Technique recorded on it. I accidentally obtained it, and my sword intent was also comprehended from it. I'll use this as a reward for you to follow us for two months and cure my junior sister.”
As he spoke, he lowered his head towards Ning Chen and said,
"Please."
"Senior Brother…"
Gongsun Liji's eyes were a little moist.
Ning Chen looked at him and was silent for a moment before taking the sheepskin scroll from his hand.
"Although I will definitely encounter a lot of trouble if I go with you, I will agree on the account of your swordsmanship. But I'll return this to you after I've finished reading it.”
Jing Ke raised his eyes and looked at him, cupped his hands and said gratefully,"
"Little brother, you have a chivalrous heart.”
Gongsun Liji also looked at Ning Chen gratefully. She was well aware of the extraordinary significance of the Five Steps Absolute Kill sword technique to Jing Ke.
The three of them returned to the mountain path from the top of the hill. The little donkey ran up to Ning Chen excitedly, and Ning Chen patted its head.
"Oh right, little brother, I haven't asked for your name yet. How should I address you?”
Jing Ke asked.
"Ning Chen."
"Ning Chen…I've never heard of him."
Jing Ke scratched his head.
Gongsun Liji repeated the name in her mind and memorized it.
"Where do you plan to go next?”
Ning Chen asked the two of them as he held the donkey's reins.
Jing Ke and Gongsun Liji looked at each other. Gongsun Liji nodded at him and whispered,""I think we can trust him."
Jing Ke nodded and looked at Ning Chen,"
"Little Brother Ning Chen, we don't want to hide it from you. In fact, Junior Martial Sister and I escaped and are currently being hunted down by the Qin army. Now, we have come to the Qi Kingdom to seek refuge with the Qi Kingdom's King, who is a friend of our master.”
In their eyes, the white-robed youth's expression was still calm, and there was no fluctuation in his eyes.
"Since I've agreed to your request, I won't change it. I'll be by your side for the next two months.”
Ning Chen said as he led the donkey forward.
