Do not die

Chuzheng courtyard.

Meng Zhou first diagnosed and treated two old patients. Based on their recovery conditions, the treatment can basically be completed next time.

He also gained a lot of experience from it.

After the two of them left with thanks, Meng Zhou looked at a new patient introduced by Chu Zheng today.

In fact, Meng Zhou was a little curious about this new patient when he first arrived today. This was the first time that he was accompanied by his family members.

The patient is a man as strong as an ox, with a sixth-level Qi cultivation level. He looks about forty or fifty years old, and is the youngest among the patients he has treated.

But what really concerned Meng Zhou was that he saw some familiar traits in the other party.

With his martial arts attainments far exceeding those of martial arts masters, Meng Zhou had the answer in his mind.

Like the previous master, this man was also a martial arts master before becoming a practitioner.

Moreover, this person followed the path of physical training, with full Qi and blood and a strong body.

The person who accompanied him was a petite woman, not outstanding in appearance, but with a very quiet temperament.

While Meng Zhou was treating two other patients, they both stood aside quietly.

After treating the two old patients, the two finally sat across from Meng Zhou.

Based on his attainments in the examination technique, in fact, he could basically determine the other party's illness by directly examining the person. However, in order to practice the examination technique, he still followed the process of consultation first and examination later.

The two spells of consultation and examination gain the most experience when facing new patients. When the new patients become old patients, the experience gain of these two spells will be much reduced.

At this time, his spirit will be particularly focused.

From the exchange, Meng Zhou knew that the two were serious Taoist couples, the male cultivator named Yan Xiong and the female cultivator named Miao Lin.

After having a general understanding of Yan Xiong's symptoms, Meng Zhou suppressed some strange emotions in his heart, put his hand on Yan Xiong's wrist, and inspected the magic power spread around his body like water waves.

Although he had already expected it, Meng Zhou was still shocked when he saw the feedback information.

"Your problem is very serious!" Meng Zhou said.

Yan Xiong himself was very calm, but Miao Lin hurriedly asked: "Can it be cured?"

Meng Zhou said: "I can't guarantee this. The erysipelas has already penetrated deep into the internal organs and bones of the whole body. It is not easy to cure it. We can only take it slowly."

I couldn't help but have more guesses about the relationship between the two. However, he remained calm and abided by his duty as a doctor.

Miao Lin, like Han Qingmei, is also an alchemist. In terms of alchemy talent, she is not necessarily better than Han Qingmei. However, she is already a first-level mid-level before she is forty. It is very likely that she will be in her fifties or sixties. At that time, he became a first-level high-grade alchemist and became the absolute top of Nuanyun Valley.

The fact that her path to alchemy is going so smoothly has a lot to do with her Taoist companion Yan Xiong.

Yan Xiong is not only her Taoist companion, but also her drug tester.

Most of the elixirs she failed to refine would end up in Yan Xiong's mouth. He tried the elixirs on his own, and with the tacit understanding between the two of them, Miao Lin was able to quickly find out the reasons for the failure and improve them.

Sometimes the elixir is too strong to bear. If you take one or two detoxifying elixirs, Yan Xiong will immediately resurrect with full blood.

But what was restored was only the surface. All kinds of messy erysipelas had already accumulated into layers of poisonous dirt in his body.

The internal organs, the bones of the whole body, and even the blood flowing in the body are all alienated and different from those of normal monks.

He has been able to persist until now, all thanks to the strong physique trained by a martial arts master to resist, but even so, he is now strong on the outside but capable on the inside.

Meng Zhou judged that even if he did not continue to try the elixir, Yan Xiong would not survive five years in such a bad state.

He couldn't help but glance at Miao Lin, who was quiet and caring, and didn't know whether to praise the couple for their deep love or to be cold-hearted and ruthless.

Although he was a little shocked by this subtle relationship, he did not delve into the hidden interests behind the two.

To him, Yan Xiong is an "experience monster" with huge potential to tap.

However, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional when he thought about what happened to his former master who was also a martial arts master.

Is this a mismatch in the horoscopes, or is he subject to some special curse? How come there are so many pitfalls when a martial arts master joins the practice circle?

There is nothing to say about the subsequent diagnosis and treatment. Although I spent more time on Yan Xiong than other patients, I gained more experience.

Questioning skill +30, Inspection skill +30, Treatment skill +30, Golden Light skill +30, Qi regulating skill +30, Energy raising skill +30, Detoxification skill +50.

After such an operation, it is just a thin layer scraped off on top of the layers of poisonous dirt.

He no longer dared to "scrape" more. These poisonous stains were like the Blood Demon Skill that had already been deeply rooted in the body.

If too much is removed at once, it will bring greater backlash to him, and may even directly endanger his life.

"Recuperate for two days before continuing. During this period, please do not continue to test the elixir." Meng Zhou finally warned.

Seeing the petite female cultivator helping the burly Taoist monk go away, Meng Zhou finally couldn't help but said: "Such Taoist monks are really rare."

Chu Zheng shook his head, but did not express any opinion on this.

Meng Zhou also shook off the matter and his expression became serious.

"Brother, tell me something."

Seeing his attitude, Chu Zheng knew that what Meng Zhou was about to say was not a trivial matter. He asked Yu Peng to close the courtyard door and then led Meng Zhou deep into the house.

The two sat opposite each other, and Meng Zhou asked: "Brother, do many people know my identity as a pharmacist?"

Chu Zheng said: "Not much. I know you are afraid of trouble. I have always paid attention to this aspect."

Meng Zhou shook his head and said nothing about Zhou Quan.

"A secret known to three people is no longer a secret, not to mention, now more than three people know about my situation?

Therefore, my identity as a pharmacist will eventually spread. "

Chu Zheng hesitated for a moment and asked:

"Brother, I'm actually curious, why are you so repulsive to this?

It stands to reason that if your identity as a pharmacist is known to more people, shouldn't more people come to beg you?

Are you worried about your safety? Believe me, I can’t guarantee it elsewhere, but in this Nuanyun Valley, no one dares to do anything against a pharmacist like you! "

Meng Zhou thought to himself, if I hadn't personally disposed of a Talisman Maker without leaving even a trace of ashes, I would really believe it.

However, he did not argue with Chu Zheng on this issue. He did not want to argue with him on this issue, which made no sense.

He asked again: "It is said that there are many professionals in Nuanyun Valley, how many are there?"

Chu Zheng thought for a while and said with some uncertainty: "There should be...one or two hundred, right?"

Meng Zhou said disappointedly: "So few."

Chu Zheng immediately said: "This is already extraordinary, you can't compare with the group of practitioners.

Compare the ratio of professionals to practitioners in other spiritual veins, and you will know how exaggerated this is. "

Meng Zhou said: "But the absolute number is really small. Even if all the professionals in Nuanyun Valley are brought together, both in terms of quantity and combat power, they will not be able to compete with forces like He Shengtang, right?"

Chu Zheng said anxiously: "How can this be the same?

No matter how strong He Shengtang is, he must act according to the rules and cannot act randomly.

In the final analysis, it is just a newly rising force, and there are several forces that are only stronger than it.

But if all the professionals come together, the rules of Nuanyun Valley will have to be rewritten!

This is not on the same level at all. Can this be judged in terms of simple numbers and combat effectiveness? "

Having said this, Chu Zheng looked at Meng Zhou and said, "No, brother, what exactly do you want to say?"

Meng Zhou said: "I suddenly thought that if forces like He Shengtang knew about me, they would force me to save people I don't want to save.

They even simply used me as a tool to trap me, and rescued whoever I was asked to save. Even my freedom of movement was restricted.

Can I say no? If this situation really happens, how should I protect myself? "

"I..." Chu Zheng opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

"If you want to threaten or coerce, people can do it on the surface without any problem.

Be as respectful as you want, be as respectful as you want... But can you say that this is not threatening and forcing? "

"this……"

"Not just me, have you ever cooperated with these forces?

Where is Master Han?

What about other professionals?

Now it's just the two of us, so we're not afraid of embarrassment.

Ask yourself, is there any so-called cooperation that you feel aggrieved, unwilling, and repelled in your heart, but you have to "cooperate" under the pressure of the situation?

Is this considered cooperation or awareness of current affairs? "

After hearing this, Chu Zheng was stunned for a long time.

"I just heard that the forces in Nuanyun Valley are all centered on professionals. Only in this way can they last forever, so professionals will be greatly respected.

I was very happy at first, thinking that as a professional, I would have a good time in Nuanyun Valley.

But why are there so many first-level mid-level professionals who are outside the influence?

This is the case for you, Master Han, and other professionals I treat these days.

Don’t you all want to live a more comfortable life?

However, I have heard Yu Peng say it several times since you recovered and became a first-level high-grade Talisman Maker.

Many forces, including Baiyi Hall and Zhenfu Hall, have successively sent you respectful invitations.

The attitude is so respectful!

Looking at their posture, if you don't join a certain force for a day, this kind of respectful harassment will not stop for a day.

Is this respect? "

“I also just discovered that in this Nuanyun Valley, many first-level mid-level professionals are free.

But there are very few first-level top-grade professionals who are still free. "

Chu Zheng sighed helplessly.

“In the final analysis, compared with other monks, we just have an extra skill.

Of course, people want to respect us.

In the same way, we can stay safely in the valley, our personal safety is guaranteed, we don't need to travel outside to take risks, and there is no shortage of spiritual stones and resources delivered to us.

Isn't it natural to exchange something for this?

Otherwise, why should people respect professionals? With fists? "

Meng Zhou shook his head and said:

“I’m not saying this is wrong, I just think it should be based on a more reasonable and fair basis.

Instead of the other party acting respectful and respectful, they are actually acting in a coercive and coercive manner.

There are so many professionals in Nuanyun Valley, and they all have the same consensus on needs in many aspects.

We have always had this kind of tacit understanding. But why not go further? "

Chu Zheng was shocked and asked: "How can we go further?"

Meng Zhou said:

"Establish a professional association, include all professionals in Nuanyun Valley, and turn the tacit understandings in the past into black and white terms."

Then, Meng Zhou quickly made a patch, "It must be made clear in advance that the Professionals Association will not intervene or participate in any battle between forces. The only value of its existence is to safeguard the common rights and interests of all professionals."

Then, Meng Zhou used examples to explain the specific operation mode of the professional association and its significance to each professional.

Chu Zheng's eyes were wide and round, he said nothing, his fists were clenched, and even his breath was burning.

In the end, Meng Zhou didn't even send him off, but he had already left quickly.

Meng Zhou looked at Chu Zheng who had found a new direction in life, sincerely blessed him in his heart, and set off on his way home.

The biggest difference between Nuanyun Valley and Jade Lake is that no monks above the foundation level will stay in such a place to spend their lives. The strongest ones are only at the ninth level of Qi training.

This was the reason why he chose Nuanyun Valley as his place to live.

Meng Zhou made a comprehensive assessment of his current strength. He believed that his combat power should be slightly higher than the seventh level of Qi training, and he could also be in a stalemate with the eighth level of Qi training for a short time.

In the minds of all monks, pharmacists are synonymous with weaklings in fighting. If you make good use of this factor, you can pull off tricks, use dirty tricks, and even the ninth level of Qi training can be a mastermind.

This is just now.

The improvement of his strength is measured in days.

Therefore, he was stressed about the possible troubles like He Shengtang, but it was not too much.

And this pressure will become smaller with each passing day.

He didn't expect Chu Zheng to take this professional association to such an extent. He just threw a big stone into the water of Nuanyun Valley.

No matter what the final situation was, when the Tanshui stabilized again, he believed that he was qualified to say "no" to any force in Nuanyun Valley.
