Chapter 1191

(Unedited)

…

The way the young man heal the little girl is something really new in the medical master's field. And only a few have learned of such a technique. But the old medical master has actually heard of such a technique. And the one who created the technique is someone who was suddenly hunted by the military.

When he heard that news, he shakes his head and lament the foolishness of those in power. That young man should have been respected as a medical master, why would they chase him down instead?

In fact, he scolded those people in his mind. And he promised himself that if he ever encounters that guy, he would help him, and then learn from him.

That way, his medical knowledge would grow further.

And upon seeing what the young man did just now, his mind is already churning and having many thoughts.

Young man, low level, uses needles and opens up patient's body, and then cures them using potions efficiently. Those are the clues that he has already formulated in his mind to recognize that young man.

And when he saw what just happened, he knew that he has already found him.

That's why… he is looking at Xin Ja weirdly.

"Well, I'm done… I'll be going then…" Xin Ja suddenly said.

But before he could go down from the carriage the old medical master suddenly grabs his arm.

"Wait… Do not go down yet." The old man said.

"Madam Zhang… We… we need the young medical master to take care of your daughter for a while until she wakes up…" the old man said which baffled everyone inside the carriage.

"Young lad, you should ride the carriage with us…" he said with a smile.

Then he walks out and commanded the carriage to continue to the fortress.

Xin Ja was a bit startled at the development of the situation, so he did not know what the old man wanted to do.

"Young man, you have saved my daughter… I agree with Medical Master Xiang…" Madam Zhang said with a faint smile.

Xin Ja just shrugs his shoulder and sits calmly on the side. He suddenly looks at the little girl and then said after a few minutes of traveling.

"She is about to awake…" Xin Ja suddenly said.

As soon as he said those words, the closed eyes of the little girl suddenly fluttered as she slowly opens them.

"Ugh… Ma… Mama? I… I thought I would be seeing Papa…" she said with a confused tone.

But the weakness in her voice is already gone and she seems to be recovering gradually.

The tears in the eyes of Madam Zhang flowed like water as she hugged her daughter.

Medical master Xiang who is outside heard those words and agilely jumps on the carriage and quickly enters. He did not hesitate to check the condition of the body of the young girl and a smile blooms on his face.

"This… This is really a miracle! Young man… thank you…" he said with a smile.

…

The carriage travels down the road and soon arrives in front of the fortress gate. The tall black walls and black metallic gates look imposing as the carriage draws near. It was really something to behold which would always astound those who have seen it for the first time.

Many of the refugees would look at the gates in awe while walking.

Soon the carriage where Xin Ja arrives in front of the gates.

Medical master Xiang opened the curtain and then showed the insignia of a general. When the soldier manning the gate saw the insignia, he was astonished.

He put a fist on his chest and bowed in respect. The rest of the soldiers at the gates also did so.

"We convey our condolence to the family of the great general." The soldier said.

The others in the gate look at each other and also say the same thing.

The guard just checks everyone inside the carriage and then lets them go inside the fortress.

Once inside, Medical master Xiang turned to look at Madam Zhang.

"I will process the paper of the general… while you madam and the young lady can rest in the manor…" he said with a smile.

The old man did not wait and agilely jumps from the carriage and quickly strode towards the street.

"Young man, come and stay with us for a while. I know that have been having a hard time like us. Before we pay you for your service to my daughter, this is my gesture of gratitude…" Madam Zhang said with a smile as she hugs the lovely young girl in her arms.

"Mama… will big brother be staying with us? Hihi… Big brother, will you play with Xi'er?" she said in an innocent and cute tone.

Xin Ja could not help but smile. He nodded his head in agreement.

It has been a while since he last saw his pet Xuanlong, although they communicated through sending video messages, he still wanted to see them all.

The little girl is a bit talkative as she would about anything she can think of. She would share anything and then ask many questions without anything in particular.

Madam Zhang felt happy upon seeing her daughter's lively interaction with the young doctor. She is now curious on whose family could produce such a fine young man?

The carriage soon arrives in a medium-sized manor and the maids in that manor quickly received their madam with happiness. Many are even crying as they too were scared of what has happened.

Xin Ja settled in a small room in one of the courtyards for the guests.

He noticed that the people in the manor have changed their clothing into white as they began to offer their condolences to the hall of the main manor.

After dinner, medical master Xiang approached him.

"Medical master Xin… I have been in awe of your accomplishments ever since I have learned of what you have done on the battlefield. It is just a shame that the army treated you that way…" he said with a sad tone.

Upon hearing this, Xin Ja turned vigilant.

"Do not be afraid… I have no desire to tell about you to anyone. I… I just wanted to learn from you…" he said with a sincere expression.

"Hmm… You wanted to learn the acupuncture technique that I have taught in the army?"

"Yes… and also… the… I mean how were you able to find that Gu in the young lady's body?"

"Well, that is another story. It would be hard for me to teach you that skill unless you're already proficient in acupuncture and body meridian technique…" Xin Ja explained.

He has taught such skill to the medical masters who visited the Misty town. And those techniques are far more advanced than the ones he taught in the town of Tiig. So he would not think twice to teach the old man this technique if he has time.

And since he would be staying in this place for a while, Xin Ja decided to grab this chance as a cover for what he is about to do.

"Okay… I need to rest now. We will start tomorrow afternoon… I need to prepare some things first." Xin Ja explained.

The expression of the old man turned delighted as he almost jumps in happiness. He has dedicated his life to medicine and has mastered many things. Although he could not be considered as a divine doctor, he is close to one already.

"Alright, alright… You have a good rest… Medical master Xin." He said with a happy expression as he almost hops towards his quarters.

Xin Ja could not help but shake his head upon seeing the excited expression of the old man. He knew that this guy would surely spread what he is going to teach him, and this is what Xin Ja wanted to happen.

After entering his room, the expression on Xin Ja's face changed, he became serious.

Xin Ja needed to act quickly now to track the whereabouts of his target. So he quickly created an illusion array in the bedroom as his figure appears lying on the bed.

He then donned in a black suit and then carefully opens the window and melded into the shadows of the night.

His first goal is to gather information about his target, know who he is, and then look for the places he frequents. He then needs to find and set up a good sniping position.

All these things need time, and all he has right now is time.

He did not expect that he would truly encounter a general's widow and would be staying in their family for a while. Plus, he would also be spending his time teaching medical master Xiang, so this would already be a perfect cover for him.

As his figure appears on the streets, he quickly walks to the side and asks a person walking where to find a pub.

In no time, he soon arrives in front of a pub where there are many types of people drinking and their boisterous conversation is in the air.

Although he did not like this place, a slight smile appeared on his mouth upon walking in.
