Chapter 331 - Second ChaseHe had already walked a third of the distance, but j.a.panese was right behind him, so Long Chen could only take a roundabout route and play around as he advanced towards the west. Although it would be longer on the way, but it would increase his safety by quite a bit.
Long Chen"s physique was extremely astonis.h.i.+ng. In just a few short days, under the nourishment of Bai Lian"s heart, his body gradually recovered from his severe injuries. Three days had pa.s.sed, and he had already recovered almost all of his combat strength. The spirit medicines of the high-rank earth cla.s.s were indeed extraordinary.
However, because he used the Blood Refinement Qi too often, the Primordial Blood Spirit Dragon"s bloodl.u.s.t and killing attribute had already severely affected him. Long Chen longed to fight and kill every single moment of the time, and if not for Ling Xi who was watching him from the side, it would have been very easy for him to indulge himself and follow his personality to start a ma.s.sacre.After three days, Long Chen and the little wolf had already recovered to their most perfect condition. However, unfortunately, Ling Xi fell ill from cold that night. This illness would continue for three days, and it would become more and more serious. Long Chen had thought of all sorts of methods, but none of them were able to do anything. He had a lot of spirit herbs on him, but Ling Xi"s body did not have any form of True Qi to refine, so she was unable to absorb it.
Seeing Ling Xi"s body weaken day by day, Long Chen became anxious like a ant on a hot pan. He knew that the current Ling Xi only needed a very ordinary doctor, but the problem was, with their ident.i.ty as a street rat, how could they dare to find a doctor?
"Brother Chen, stop blaming yourself, I"ll be fine." Seeing that Long Chen, who was hugging himself, was a little anxious, Ling Xi immediately grabbed onto his hand, forcing the weakened him to reveal a smile, and comforted him.
"All of this can only be blamed on me for being too rash. Lil "Xi, I"m truly sorry for making you suffer alongside me." If he hadn"t killed the ninth prince back then and had merely defeated him, they wouldn"t have fallen to such a desperate situation.
Ling Xi coughed a few times before looking at Long Chen seriously. "I don"t know how to understand this, but I think being able to be together with you is the best thing that I can do, no matter what we are doing now. But lying in your arms like this, I"m really happy. "This is the most beautiful few days of my life … If you ask me to die now, I really don"t have any regrets …"
"Bulls.h.i.+t."
Long Chen patted her somewhat pale face, and said: "Stop speaking nonsense to me. I"m only trying my best to make you safe, if you don"t care about your own life, how do you expect me to protect you?""I know I was wrong." Long Chen"s words moved Ling Xi"s heart as he hurriedly said. She coughed again. This time, he coughed even more thoroughly. Long Chen"s heart twitched when he heard this. Ling Xi was like a treasure in his hands, like a beautiful white lotus flower. And now, this lotus flower was a little damaged and withered, so naturally, he felt extremely uncomfortable in her heart.
"The fever is getting worse." Moving his palm away from Ling Xi"s forehead, Long Chen said with furrowed brows.
"It"s fine, it"s going to be fine soon. Xiao Xi will not become a burden for the Brother Chen, I will work hard!" Ling Xi held her tender fists and spoke with vigor.
Long Chen looked at her for a while.
"Little Wolf, find a town nearby and we"ll disguise ourselves. I want to take Xiao Xi to see a doctor." Long Chen said firmly.
He knew, if he kept on rus.h.i.+ng, and let Ling Xi experience the attacks of the gale, after a few days, her body would definitely collapse. At that time, even if Long Chen managed to escape the pursuit of the royalty, it would be meaningless.
"No!" It will cause trouble! " Ling Xi said anxiously, but because she was speaking in a rush, he couldn"t help but cough.
"I"ve made up my mind. Don"t say too much. Lil "Xi, if there"s any more trouble, I"ll crush you to death with my foot."
There was a city called Clear Water City on the river side. Clear Water City was not big, and compared to crescent city, he was not much bigger. However, because Clear Water City is rich in divine jade, its resources are plentiful and it has a bit of a reputation in Canyang Kingdom.
Long Chen was currently outside the Clear Water City.
He definitely wouldn"t go to the city gate, because he was simply courting death. Outside one of the city walls at the east side, Long Chen rushed into Clear Water City with Little Xi in his arms.
Actually, Long Chen had already entered the Clear Water City once before this. Inside Clear Water City, he found a remote alley and a house that no one seemed to be living in. And now, he had directly sent Ling Xi to this simple and crude house. Although the house was simple, it had everything he needed for living, and it was also quite warm, remote enough, and without many people, it was very suitable for Ling Xi to recuperate.Long Chen swept the area and had the little wolf stay here to protect Ling Xi. Then, he said to Ling Xi: "Stay here well, I"ll go find a doctor for you."
"Yes." Ling Xi nodded heavily.
After looking at her again, Long Chen finally walked out of the Clear Water City. Because of the lesson taught by the crescent city last time, he had basically walked in the shadows, and with his speed of fifth level of the Milky Way Realm, no one could see him. Among the Clear Water City s, the most powerful expert was only at the first or second level of Milky Way Realm.
After observing the Clear Water City for a long time, Long Chen finally found a middle-aged doctor. It should have been more than ten years since he started practicing medicine. He should be able to cure a simple cold easily. The reason why Ling Xi became more and more severe over the past three days was mostly because her physique was weak and he had been hurrying the entire time.
Long Chen followed the doctor back to the pharmacy, and when there was no one around, Long Chen appeared and said: "Doctor, help me treat a person, a thousand divine jade, how about it?"When he was practising medicine, he could at most collect less than a divine jade. Long Chen instantly dropped a thousand divine jade, which made him a little stunned. In order to worry about whether he would believe it or not, Long Chen directly counted out a thousand divine jade from his Qiankun bag, clattered on the table, and said: "These are all yours, I only need you to treat a very simple cold. Put away your tools and medicines and come with me? "
As a doctor who had seen countless people, with just a glance, he could tell that Long Chen was an extraordinary young Ranker. He straightforwardly took out thousands of divine jade. The doctor hesitated for a moment and eventually accepted. This was because he knew that someone like Long Chen would give away a lot of benefits. But if he did not do as he said, he would lose his life.
After keeping the thousand divine jade, the doctor said to Long Chen: "Lead the way."
He had already been out for a while, without saying a word, Long Chen grabbed onto the doctor"s arm. The two of them were like a gust of wind, sweeping across the Clear Water City, and anyone who was outside could only feel a gust of wind sweeping past them, but they would not be able to see anything.Soon, he returned to his original place.
Long Chen finally stopped. The high speed movement caused the doctor"s face to turn pale, and he looked around in shock. It was clear that he did not know which part of the Clear Water City this small courtyard was.
"After you go in, don"t ask too many questions. All you need to do is to treat the person inside and leave safely. Otherwise, the divine jade won"t be yours, and its life won"t be yours either."Long Chen"s threat made the middle-aged doctor"s heart tremble. He did not dare speak anymore, and directly followed Long Chen into the room.
Seeing Long Chen coming back, Ling Xi"s face lit up again.
It was the first time that the doctor had seen such a beautiful young lady, and from his point of view, Long Chen was undoubtedly evil and terrifying. However, this young lady who was like a white lotus in front of him had a pure and kind gaze, and had earned the doctor"s goodwill.
"It was indeed the cold from the infection, and it was not treated effectively, and it has been working hard all the time, which is why it"s so serious. However, I have practiced medicine for twenty years and still have a lot of experience with the cold."
After hearing and understanding, the doctor had already prescribed the ingredients. In fact, before he came, Long Chen had already instructed him to bring the necessary ingredients. It was said that a long time ago, doctors specialized in prescriptions and there were specialised pharmacies on the market. However, ever since the Cosmic Bag was popularized, ordinary doctors would directly bring medicine ingredients to practice medicine.
After prescribing the medicine, under Long Chen"s request, the doctor went to the side to boil the medicine. Long Chen sat down beside Ling Xi, and looked at the weak and tender girl in pain, and asked: "Do you feel better lying here?"
"Hm!" Very good. " Ling Xi nodded her head, she was a little depressed and leaned close to Long Chen"s ear, looking at the doctor who was refining the medicine not far away: "Brother Chen, are you going to kill him?"Whether the doctor could recognize Long Chen or not, Long Chen did not. It was just that for Ling Xi"s safety, he could not take the risk, so in his heart, he had already decided that even if she became an evil person, after Ling Xi was cured, he would immediately kill this doctor.
"Yes." Long Chen nodded his head.
"No, Brother Chen. A doctor has the heart of a parent. I can tell that this is a good doctor." Ling Xi could not bear to see that."Alright, then I will let him stay here for a few days. Only when we are about to leave the Clear Water City will he leave."
Some of the normal herbs were nouris.h.i.+ng, and there was even a doctor specially attending to them, causing Ling Xi"s condition to gradually improve. In just one day"s time, her face had reddened slightly, and her fever had abated by more than half.
"As long as two more days pa.s.s, she"ll probably be able to recover." The nearby doctor, was somewhat terrified in front of Long Chen."You can leave then." Long Chen said.
With this a.s.surance, the doctor heaved a sigh of relief. It was as if he was living on the edge of a knife today. He had almost entered the gates of h.e.l.l.Another day had pa.s.sed. Early in the morning on the second day, Long Chen was lying on his bed with the soundly asleep Ling Xi in his arms. Suddenly, his eyes turned cold as he crawled out of bed.
After covering Ling Xi"s bed with a blanket, Long Chen bent over and kissed her pure white forehead.
Long Chen laughed, turned and pushed open the door, then walked out of the room.Outside stood a large group of short fellows. They were the Da He family!
