Chapter 132 Not saving someone at the verge of death!.
AST 0132 â Not saving someone at the verge of death!
Qing Shu laughed as he stared at the youth brimming with anger as he lightly spat the words out, âjust a dog.â
âGood, good! I will make you regret your words.â The youth huffed and puffed in anger, before turning about and leaving. These types of people, Qing Shui didnât even have enough interest to punch him.
âDoctor, Iâm feeling uncomfortable around my head region!â A melodious sounding voice rang out, filled with a sense of attraction, and tinged with a crisp melody.
Qing Shui, upon hearing the voice, did not even incline his head as a bitter smile was displayed on his face. âMy big boss sister Wu-shuang, poor thing why is your head aching. Come, let me rub it for you.â After which, Qing Shui grinned captivatingly, at Wenren Wu-shuang.
âRecently, it is said that this martial clinic is the most famous within Hundred Miles City, why didnât you tell me that you were the one that opened it? Donât you treat me as a friend?â Wenren Wu-shuang glared at Qing Shui.
âHehe, of course I didnât treat you as my friend. Iâve long treated as one of my own. I didnât inform anyone because I didnât want to bother you guys.â Qing Shui lightly spoke, as he unconsciously took advantage of her, and started rubbing Wu-shuangâs head.
Wu-shuang laughed, but a hue of redness could be seen coloring her cheeks. She somewhat understood what Qing Shui meant when he said that he has long treated her as one of his own⌠âYour medicinal skills are already stronger than some of those other Xiantian Alchemists. Why are you holed up in here? Donât tell me itâs because of earning money.â
âOf course Iâm doing this for money.â Qing Shui calmly smiled as he replied, while he began doodling on a piece of paper.
âThen why did you chase that fellow from earlier away? Although he is just a servant, he is from the wealthy Dong Clan. You should know that wealthy people fear dying the most.â Wenren Wu-Shuang asked with some confusion.
âI have a few rules of my own. I wonât provide treatment for certain types of people. For others, even if they have no money, I wouldnât hesitate to help them!â
âDo you mean, for example, the mother and daughter duo that just moved into the Qing Clan Medical Store? Earlier I saw the little angel.â Wu-shuang beautiful eyes blinked as she spoke, as her beautiful countenance seemed slightly moved.
âWhen you were little, youâve mustâve been an angel as well.â Qing Shui teased, as he lightly smiled.
âAre you saying that Iâm not an angel now?â
âYou are a celestial beauty that descended from the heavens, but I wonder who you descended for? I would be very jealous of that man!â Qing Shui hurriedly spoke, somewhat truthfully.
âHmph, I wonât talk any more nonsense with you. Hmm, oh yeah, what are the types of people you wouldnât provide treatment for? Tell me, Iâm very curious!â Wenren Wu-shuang inquired, as Qing Shui was still doodling on the piece of paper.
âThose that have too intense of a killing aura.â
âBut why?â
âThose that massacre a lot, should be prepared to be killed at any moment. If they died, then itâs Heavenâs will.â Qing Shui enigmatically explained.
âAnd, who else?â
âThose that are at extreme end of the spectrums, too kind, or too evil. And those that are too loyal to the country, as well as traitors!â
âI understand why you wouldnât treat those that are too evil. But what about those that are too kind in nature? And what do you mean traitors and loyalists?â Wu-shuang curiously inquired.
âThose that are too loyal, might be considered traitors. Traitors on the other hand, could also be considered loyal. These types of people deserve death. Thereâs also evil in those whose kindness is too brilliant, almost all of those that are âtoo kindâ are all people angling for fame. These types of people will also die young, so I donât want to treat them.â Qing Shui didnât explain it too much, as he babbled somewhat irresponsibility to Wu-shuang.
âHow does kindness equate to angling for fame?â
Qing Shui gazed at that unchanging countenance of Wu-shuang as he continued, âthose that appear extremely kind, are all merely doing it because of reputation or money. If not, why would they want to come out in the limelight. If they spent great amounts of money for charitable acts, donât you wonder where all their money came from? Itâs surely from cruel and violent means, and using money obtained from such a source to do charity, donât you find that they are angling for fame?â
âAnd, who else?â It appears as though Wu-shuang was getting more interested.
âThose that are in extreme poverty, and those who are extremely wealthy. Lastly, also those that betray everything for money!â Qing Shui laughed.
Wu-shuang speechlessly stared at Qing Shui, but questioning could be seen in the depths of her clear eyes.
âThose that are in extremely poverty have suffered too much, so death could be also considered a form of release for them. As for those that are extremely wealthy, they enjoyed life too much. This could be considered a form of âexpropriationâ. Those that betray everything for money, would do all sorts of evil things, and thus, they deserve death.â Qing Shui put down the pen he was doodling with, and lightly drummed the table following a light rhythm.
âAnd, who else?â Wu-shuang was as though her curiosity had been greatly peaked, as her beautiful eyes flickered with a fancy light, staring at Qing Shui. When she spoke, her perfect white teeth could be seen, giving a sense of artistic beauty.
âThose that donât look pleasing to me, those with no money, those that are more handsome than me, those with beautiful girlfriends or wivesâŚâ
âStop stop stop! Just tell me who would you provide treatment to!â Wenren Wu-shuang speechlessly stared at Qing Shui.
âI would only heal those like you, unmatched peerless beauties.â Qing Shui laughed.
âWhat about the consultation fees?â Wenren Wu-shuang blushed as her languid, melodious voice, sounded out, seemingly filled with a sense of magic that cause people to lose themselves in it.
âMarrying meâŚwould suffice!â
Wenren Wu-shuang rolled her eyes, âOkay, I shouldnât banter with you so much. I have a request, and need you to help me.â
âTell me about it. In this vast world, just meeting you could already be considered our destiny. Among the billions of people, the people I know amount to 50. You are a special existence in my heart. No matter what you need, as long as I can help, I would help. Even if the thing is beyond my capabilities, I would still give my all for you.â Qing Shui lightly said, but the words he said did truly come from his heart. The Qing Shui in this world, was many times more free-spirited compared to back in his previous world. Many things, he regarded lightly or treated them as a joke. But the ones he valued most were people close to him, regardless of kin or kith.
âDo you know why I was injured by the Golden-ringed Snake King back then? Do you know what it was protecting?â
A brilliant light flashed in Qing Shuiâs eyes. Everyone would go crazy over the chance to obtain heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Something that a demonic beast guarded would definitely be a good thing! But because of the lack of information, Qing Shui was unable to formulate a guess.
âHmm, Iâm unable to guess. But something that could make you this excited, has got to be a valuable treasure.â Qing Shui exclaimed, as he inquired.
âItâs the Golden-Ringed Snake Fruit!â
âGolden-Ringed Snake Fruit? What effect does it have?â Qing Shui felt his curiosity piquing. This fruit should have something to do with the Golden-Ringed Snake right?
âIngesting it grants you twice the amount of resistance you would have towards snake poison. And, it also allows you to maintain your youth for 10 additional years.â Wenren Wu-shuang lightly laughed.
âI didnât expect that even you, with a peerless countenance unmatched by those beauties in ancient era and even now, with beauty akin to that of lotuses and jade, would still pay so much attention to your appearance.â Qing Shuiâs eyes misted over as he drowned himself in the beauty of Wu-shuang.
âAm I really that great?â Wu-Shuang happily inquired upon hearing Qing Shuiâs praising of her.
âOf course, my words are even more real when compared to pure gold.â
âIf thatâs the case, I would have to pay even more attention to my appearance. Although Xiantian cultivators have a lifespan of 500 years, their period of youth could only be considered about 20-30 years longer than normal humans. For them, 40 years of age, is their limit before their youth would start to wither away. For us, at most we could maintain our youthful looks till weâre about 70. We should take great care in maintaining now, otherwise in the future I would look like a grannyâŚâ
No wonder those pills and pellets that could increase the period of youthfulness was so highly sought after. Not to mention females, even males would hanker after these. These types of herbs and pellets couldnât even be easily bought even if one had the money.
