Chapter 289 A Happy Surprise
When Lyu Liang was still at a loss, Qiao Youliang regained his normal cunning look and said with a smile, “Stop thinking. You have made up your mind to save the Yang Family anyway, so just follow your own heart. And take precautions beforehand. Now that you are here, do you have any questions to ask me?”
Facing a senior who was so capricious, Lyu Liang was really speechless. He bowed to Qiao Youliang respectfully and said, “Yes, I do have a lot of questions… Well, the Primordial Stone is not a problem. I just need an answer from you! The first question is…”
“Wait!” Qiao Youliang waved his hand and said while wagging his head, “Before you ask me questions, there are three kinds of questions that I won’t answer! It’s not that I don’t want to earn money. I’m just restricted by some deadly conditions!”
“Ah? What are they?” Lyu Liang suddenly felt a sense of premonition…
“First, any questions about Xuanli Evil Moon. Second, questions about Nie Qingyun. And the last one is, what is my goal for being here, besides protecting you. Except for these three kinds of questions, you can ask me whatever you want to ask! You need to pay 500 mid-grade Primordial Stones for one question. Here is the price list. Please take a look at it, Sir!” Qiao Youliang waved three fingers, and then handed Lyu Liang a scroll.
“You… I…” Lyu Liang sighed mournfully. Those were exactly the questions he was eager to know, but the senior had already rejected him before he could even ask…
The deadly condition he mentioned, which Lyu Liang was aware of, even without his explanations, would certainly have to be the suppression of the damn power of the Law of Heaven, which was the same with that of White.
When Lyu Liang opened his mouth and was trying to figure out what else he needed to ask, he suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked, “Senior, the Soul-swallowing Beast beside you, is able to remove the Xuan Ling Engraving Seal inside the Divine Soul, isn’t it?”
Since Lyu Liang came to the Nether Big World, he’d been expecting to see the Soul-swallowing Beast all the time. Because according to what Swallowing Spirit and White said before, the ninth beast of the Divine Beasts of Chaos called Soul-swallowing Beast, which was the black monkey, was the right one to remove the Xuan Ling Engraving Seal on the people of the Fox and Wolf Clan!
Qiao Youliang was startled and a little confused about Lyu Liang’s unconventional question. He just answered subconsciously, “Yes, Little Ming is good at removing all kinds of spells in the Divine Soul.”
Just as Lyu Liang was about to continue, Qiao Youliang sitting opposite him, suddenly slapped his head and grasped Lyu Liang’s arm. His eyes shone with a golden light, he laughed loudly and said, “Oh, my god! I get it! “You want Little Ming to remove the Xuan Ling Engraving Seal on the people of the Fox and Wolf Clan! Is that right?”
“S… Senior, you are very wise!” Seeing the greedy expression on Qiao Youliang’s face, he suddenly realized that there were countless people in the Fox and Wolf Clan. It was the first time that he felt diffident. “My Primordial Stones, will there be enough?…” He thought to himself feebly.
“Little Ming! Little Ming! Where are you? A big business! There is a big business!” Qiao Youliang ignored Lyu Liang’s twitching face and yelled.
“What? I’m talking about the old days with my brothers… What big business?” The monkey’s eyes were also shining with a golden light, which rendered Lyu Liang speechless. What kind of Soul-swallowing Beast was that? It might be better to call it “Gold-swallowing Beast”…
Lyu Liang immediately told them all about the Fox and Wolf Clan, and also said that he wanted to repay them. At last, he gritted his teeth to ask for a favor, “Please help me remove all the Xuan Ling Engraving Seals on the people of the Fox and Wolf Clan, seniors! If my Primordial Stones are not enough, I can use the supernal materials, agrarian treasures and the divine weapons to offset the payment!”
“10,000 mid-grade Primordial Stones for one Xuan Ling Engraving Seal…” Little Ming said slowly, which directly made Lyu Liang want to die. It was robbing him of his money, as well as his life!
“But, that price is for strangers. For you, I will give you a 90 percent discount! It doesn’t matter if there aren’t enough Primordial Stones. We’ll figure out a way to solve it!” Little Ming continued. What it said made Lyu Liang immediately feel pleased.
“All right then… Eh, thanks!” Lyu Liang was overjoyed and bowed deeply to Little Ming. At the same time, he also secretly checked on Qiao Youliang with his Divine Sense. He thought that Little Ming was too generous, and had just gone against Qiao Youliang’s idea of “a big business”.
“It’s okay! Anyway, you trade with Little Ming. It’s his call!” Qiao Youliang seemed to know what Lyu Liang was thinking. Looking helpless, he threw up his hands and secretly transmitted a voice message to him at the same time, “It’s a Soul-swallowing Beast, but you don’t call it Xiao Ti, which kind of has the same meaning as ‘little brother’. It hates that.”
Lyu Liang was immensely relieved at this moment. He again thanked them repeatedly, and then began to ask him other questions.
“Senior Qiao, if I succeed in the end and also expose myself, how do I make it to the southern area from this place?” Lyu Liang raised a question that concerned him most.
“The consulting fee for questions are 500 mid-grade Primordial Stones, and the fee for leading the way is 1,000 mid-grade Primordial Stones. If there are fights, they would be charged additionally, based on the amount of Spiritual Qi consumed, and the power of the Divine Soul, okay?” Qiao Youliang answered him, just like a profiteer.
“No problem!” Lyu Liang did not hesitate and answered him directly. Since he had to pay a lot anyway, he did not mind that he would charge him more!
“To be honest, I think your chances of escaping from this place successfully are slim! You will probably have to fight your way out desperately! It’s impossible to return to the southern area through the conventional transmission formation. But there is a dangerous road! It’s the Magic Forest in the east!” Qiao Youliang did not keep him guessing that time and continued, “So long as we could sneak into it successfully, I’m sure I can get you out of the forest!”
“Thanks for your guide and rescue, senior! I’m so relieved and can focus on carrying out my plan from now on!” Lyu Liang said, while cupping his fists. He felt more confident at this time.
“But, you have to promise me one thing!” Qiao Youliang suddenly said solemnly. “As soon as we enter the Magic Forest, you have to follow my orders no matter what happens! Even if there is something wrong with your companions, you can’t make a decision by yourself!”
Lyu Liang was startled by his statement, as his words seemed to have a meaning that made him worried.
All the people who were close to Lyu Liang knew that Lyu Liang cared about them so much. That was his biggest advantage, and was also his weak point. What Qiao Youliang said indicated something, which seemed to have directly touched his psychological limit.
“Well… I’ll try my best!” Lyu Liang did not answer him directly, but his eyes just looked more resolute than before.
“… Fine. I just hope everything goes well. I’m tired and want to take a rest. Right now, Little Ming is talking about the old days with the divine beasts beside you. You could consult with it about the matters of removing the Xuan Ling Engraving Seal, beforehand.” Qiao Youliang had obviously guessed Lyu Liang’s answer. He just sighed and turned over to lie down on the bed again.
Lyu Liang thanked him repeatedly, while bowing to him. And then he returned to his own cave residence. At the same time, he also went into the Virtual Land, where all the Divine Beasts of Chaos had gathered together.
When Lyu Liang entered, the eight Divine Beasts of Chaos were talking freely and happily…
“Soul-swallowing Beast, haven’t seen you for a long time. Your ability of swallowing souls has improved again!”
“That’s right! If you had not appeared on time, that idiot might not be able to live until now!”
“Haha… F… Finally… th… there is someone… who is b… blacker than me!”
…
Hearing them laughing and talking, Lyu Liang was in a daze. Those senior divine beasts with different special magic powers made him recall his journey to become an immortal, through cultivation.
“Oh, you’ve finished with Youliang already?” Moments later, Little Ming suddenly saw Lyu Liang and turned to greet him.
Lyu Liang bowed respectfully to the divine beasts, and joined them. While they were talking, he secretly asked Little Ming, “Senior Little Ming, you have given me such a big discount. Would it bother Senior Qiao…” Although Qiao Youliang had said that he didn’t care, Lyu Liang still felt guilty.
Little Ming replied him, while still talking with the other divine beasts, “No. This is my business. He won’t mind. Well, there is a reason for Youliang to be so greedy for money. It’s just not my place to talk about it. You only need to know that he used to be in extreme pain and the pain has affected him a lot. That’s why he became so obsessed with money. But, you should also see that he is absolutely trustworthy at the crucial moment!”
Lyu Liang had no doubt about that, either. Qiao Youliang had saved Xuanli Evil Moon, so he was not doing everything just for the payment.
However, what kind of misfortune had made a powerful figure like him become so crazy about money, Lyu Liang couldn’t help pondering about that…
…
At the same time, on the border of the western area and the southern area of the Nether Big World, two figures suddenly appeared on a cloud.
If Lyu Liang happened to be there, he was sure to become wildly excited, as one of the two figures was a girl who was very familiar and close to him!
She was Su Qiao’er, who used to have a teacher and pupil relationship with him, as well as being lovers before! At that time, she was more glamorous and even had a quality of a person in high position, and looked quite different from the state when Lyu Liang first met her. But still, her eyes were filled with faint sadness.
Beside Su Qiao’er was a handsome youth, dressed in black armor from head to toe. His expression was lofty, but he seemed to be deeply attached to Su Qiao’er.
“Thank you for escorting me to the Mortal World, Soul Shadow milord. I hope I have not held you up.” Su Qiao’er saluted the youth slightly, her voice was respectful but distant.
The youth waved his hand and said softly, ” Sister Qiao’er, you are too courteous. It’s a small thing for me to escort you to the Mortal World. “Besides, I’ve said it many times. You can call me Lifeng in private. With the relationship between Wu-Ji Five Lords and my Donghuang Family, we should be closer.”
“Even so, I just can’t behave too freely when facing the ‘Eight Immortal Generals, otherwise, Master Xingyun will blame me if she knows that. Brother Donghuang, you also would not like to see me having a difficult time, do you?” Su Qiao’er smiled. Although she changed the way she addressed him, they were still not in the sort of relationship that he had hoped to have.
“Where are you going next? It will be a while before I fulfill the formal mission, so I’d like to come with you and look for him! Anyway, the Nether Big World is famous for its dangers. If I leave you here alone, your Master would kill me if she knows that. So, sister Qiao’er is also kind enough to let me accompany you.” The youth smiled and gave her a perfect answer.
Su Qiao’er frowned at first, but then she nodded and said, “Then thanks for your escort again, brother Donghuang. Besides, if your formal mission begins, please focus on the big picture. Although my fighting capacity is not so powerful, it’s already enough for me to protect myself. And before I left for the Mortal World, I have left a message to my Master. If I can’t help him leave that world alive, I will never go back to the Sanctuary!” After she was done, she disappeared right away.
“Let me see what kind of man in the Mortal World could make one of the ‘Three Golden Flowers’ in the Sanctuary admire him to such an extent! Want to have the woman that ‘Soul Shadow’ likes, you will never be qualified, even in your next life!“ Watching Su Qiao’er gradually leaving, the smile on the youth’s face faded. He snorted and then caught up with her.
Extra Story 1 Medical Knowledge Youliang
There was a common town called “Sunset Town”, located in the Southern Heaven District in the Pangu Origin world.
Talking about Sunset Town, all the people would think of two places.
The first place was the Zhao Family, the richest family in the town. Inside the yard stood a statue of pure gold, which was more than 50 feet high. It was the figure of the family head, Zhao Youcai.
The other place was an ordinary wooden house, which was not luxurious and special. Although the house was dilapidated on the outside, the board hanging on the door header was very clean, with two characters that had been written with great strength: Qiao’s Clinic.
Zhao Youcai’s family was well-known for its wealth, as almost all the famous industries in the Sunset Town were absolutely controlled by the Zhao Family. Besides, Zhao Youcai was a man who was extremely mean and narrow-minded.
Qiao’s Clinic was well-known for its kindness. A young couple who had arrived two years ago were living in the clinic. The man was called Qiao De and the woman was called Li Susu. Qiao De’s medical skills were unique. He was a kind and honest man, and basically did not charge the patients any money, no matter what kind of economic state they were in.
Therefore, within less than one year, Qiao’s Clinic became popular throughout the entire Sunset Town. Everyone knew that there was a doctor who had good medical skills, and also extremely kindhearted.
People ate all kinds of food, so there was no way for them to be healthy all the time. The Qiao’s Clinic therefore, was always full of people. Rich people would pay a token, while poor people would even get paid by the couple! They were definitely a typical example of having medical skills and kindness!
Zhao Youcai was not blind and very clear about how much money the Qiao’s Clinic could bring in, so he kept sending people to talk sense into them, with a seemingly good idea of “becoming a shareholder”. Actually, he just wanted to bring the clinic into his own estate and make it a new money-making machine for the Zhao Family.
However, Qiao De and his wife never agreed. Zhao Youcai had means to force other people to obey him, but, for the clinic, there was nothing he could do.
When the couple rejected him for the first time, he sent people to surround the clinic, but before anything could happen, countless common people went there and drove them back. Normally, they all feared Zhao Youcai, but everyone would at sometime, become ill. At that time, the couple’s medical skills were so good, and they were kind enough to treat them for free. How could they let the clinic become a estate of the unscrupulous Zhao Family?
It could be said to be an activity of the rabble, or the failure of law, when there were too many people. People just rushed forward together, with the brave ones running ahead and the cowards cheering them from behind.
Zhao Youcai liked money, but he was not an idiot. He could run such a big estate, because he knew better than other people, about what popular support meant. Although the common people were usually afraid of him, he had better not touch their bottom line… There was a saying: The rabbit would even bite when it was pissed off!
Anyway, the clinic was not that important to the Zhao Family. After trying to get it for a couple of times, Zhao Youcai gave up. But deep inside, he secretly bore grudges against the couple.
Two years later, a loud and clear baby’s cry was heard from the Qiao’s Clinic. A new little life had been born. Some people said that they had seen a beam of aqua blue light flying into the clinic and then disappeared, but other people just regarded it as baseless gossip and replied with a laugh…
…
At that time, Qiao De was looking tenderly at the baby in swaddling clothes and talking to his wife in the clinic, while holding her hand tightly. Li Susu was still in a weak condition, but she was listening to her husband with a smile.
“This kid will be called Youliang! The men of our family must be excellent doctors with consciences!” Qiao De said firmly at last, which meant that the Qiao Family and Qiao De’s medical skills now had a successor.
The kid grew fast and soon, six years had passed.
During that time, with Qiao De as his teacher, Qiao Youliang started to study about medicine when he was only two years old. When he was four years old, he already followed his father to treat patients in the clinic, and had also gone out to practice medicine.
Maybe because the God was moved by Qiao De’s kindness, Qiao Youliang was even more talented when it came to medicine. When he was six, he could literally treat patients without his father’s help, and had never misdiagnosed! His unique technique of “Observing, Listening, Inquiring, Feeling” was really amazing.
“Father, why don’t we charge the patients money? If we are rich, we could have a better life. Am I right?” After sending away another patient who could not pay and kept thanking them all the time, Qiao Youliang tilted his head and asked his father, who was looking at him with a smile.
“Xiao Liang, you are still young, so you don’t understand. But you have to remember, there are many things that you can’t even trade for gold. As for the money, we already have enough to live on, right?” Qiao De caressed the head of his son. Seeing that, Qiao Youliang was still a little confused, but he just smiled lightly.
Gradually, people all knew that there was also a “young highly-skilled doctor” in Qiao’s Clinic. At this time, father and son worked together, which not only improved the efficiency, but their reputation had greatly increased.
But everything had its advantages and disadvantages. Fortune and misfortune were two baskets in a well. The prosperity of Qiao’s Clinic had after all, harmed the benefits of some people.
When Qiao De was the only doctor in the clinic, those patients that could not be treated in time, would go to the other clinics.
But at that moment, Qiao Youliang could also deal with some patients. Other clinics that would have received some patients, were gradually losing their patients.
Then, the workers in those clinics got furious. But the reputation of Qiao’s Clinic was so good, that none of them dared to stop people going there, otherwise, they would be drowned in the curses of the common people.
Those clinics belonged to the Zhao Family. When Zhao Youcai heard the news, he felt more hatred for the Qiao Family. But he was very tolerant and temporarily comforted those clinic workers. He was waiting, waiting for a chance to get rid of the Qiao Family forever…
…
Another six years passed again. Qiao De was no longer young and his hair was graying, but his medical skills and kind heart remained unchanged as before. At this time, Qiao Youliang was already 12 years old, and his medical skills had already surpassed his father’s. But, he obeyed the family rules strictly, treating all the patients equally and never charged them for the diagnosis, except when they paid him voluntarily!
However, something unexpected happened.
One day, a series of poisoning accidents happened within a wide range in the Sunset Town. The cause was a type of gorgeous but foul smelling flower. It was traced to the water source, which the people used in their daily life.
“Mature Rotten Flowers! They are the pollutants!” When Qiao De arrived, he recognized the flowers at once, and concluded that they were the cause of the poisoning.
The Rotten flowers looked similar to ordinary flowers at first, being bright red and having no unpleasant odor, but, once it grew, the red color gradually faded and it would give off a rotten aura, and generate a kind of toxin that was fatal to the people!
Although the flowers were discovered in time and removed totally, nearly one-third of the inhabitants there had already been poisoned, Li Susu and Qiao Youliang included as well.
At the time, Zhao Youcai felt happy, as he thought that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to have his revenge!
It was not difficult to detoxify the toxin generated by the rotten flowers. Almost all the clinics knew how to make up a prescription for it, but one kind of herb-medicine in the prescription named “Hemp Purifying Grass” was very precious. According to the market at the time, one grass cost almost one silver dollar.
Therefore, Qiao’s Clinic was no longer able to solve the situation by itself.
Other kinds of medicine were not a problem, but the Hemp Purifying Grass was rare and hard to get. That kind of grass had not been in high demand before, but as soon as the poisoning accident happened, it was immediately sold out. Afterwards, the clinics owned by Zhao Youcai started to feverishly advertise the secret prescription to detoxify the toxin generated by the rotten flower.
The price rose rapidly. When it came to be five silver dollars for one grass, the demand still exceeded the supply.
As Qiao’s Clinic did not have enough money to buy the Hemp Purifying Grass, few people went there now. Until that time, Qiao Youliang who was in bed because of illness, suddenly realized that the money was actually very important…
Qiao Youliang felt dizzy, due to the poisoning, but he faintly felt some bitter liquid flowing into his body. His medical talents had been trained for a long time, so he immediately knew that the liquid seemed to be the antidote for the rotten flower!
“Well? Father, you bought the Hemp Purifying Grass? What about my mother? Has she also taken the antidote?” As soon as Qiao Youliang woke up, he hurried to ask his father who was sitting at the bedside, while holding his arm tightly. He knew that they were not rich. Even if they could afford one grass, they would not have enough money left to buy the second one, in such a short time.
“This grass has been stored in our clinic. Your symptoms of poisoning are more severe than your mother, so she asked me to feed you first. And I will go to Zhao’s Clinic to buy the other grass.” Qiao De smiled reluctantly. He knew how hard it would be to buy the Hemp Purifying Grass from the clinics owned by the Zhao Family!
“I’ll go!” Qiao Youliang did not care that he was still weak. He jumped out of bed and took his savings and rushed out. He did not notice that his father behind him, was sighing to the sky, and his face was full of tears…
…
“What? Are you kidding me? Wasn’t it five silver dollars for one grass before? How come I have to pay a nugget of gold for one grass now? You are jacking up the price!” After inquiring at five clinics, Qiao Youliang just could not help himself and became enraged, as they all offered him the same extremely unreasonable price.
“Sir, we are selling it at an expressly marked price!” The shopkeeper of the clinic pointed at the price list behind him and said innocently, “The Zhao Family bought all the Hemp Purifying Grasses. The purchasing price for this kind of grass is already a nugget of gold at the moment. If you can afford it, pay for it! Otherwise, just leave! If you have any problem about that, go talk with the Zhao Family!”
Qiao Youliang was holding the few silver dollars tightly in his hands, which almost became deformed. He glared at the shopkeeper and shouted, “A nugget of gold? All right! You just wait. I’ll get the money and come back!” After he finished speaking, he rushed out without looking back.
The sky was becoming cloudy, which meant there would be a rainstorm. At that time, Qiao Youliang also felt much gloomier…
Within one day, he had gone through most parts of Sunset Town and borrowed money from door to door, but only some patients who had received a great favor from the Qiao Family were willing to help him. Most of the people there were afraid of the Zhao Family. They just shook their heads, sighed, and closed the door…
When the rain poured down, Qiao Youliang fixed his eyes on the silver dollars in his hand, which was even less than half a nugget of gold, and could no longer control himself; after a shout to the sky, his eyes were full of tears, mixing with the rain at the same time…
When Qiao Youliang dragged his exhausted body to Qiao’s Clinic where the light was dim, his father was waiting for him at the door. Qiao De caught him as he stumbled forward and said softly, “Actually, when you were in a coma, I’ve gone to borrow money from door to door, but I did not manage to borrow enough money…”
“Father, stop talking. I won’t give up! I will continue to borrow money tomorrow. If I can’t get enough money in Sunset Town, I’ll go to the next town!” Qiao Youliang said faintly, but firmly.
Qiao De felt very sorry. He held his son tightly, and wept quietly.
When it was still dark the next day, Qiao Youliang already carried his bag and went out. He did not hesitate and headed directly to the town next to Sunset Town.
Their good reputation had also spread widely there, and a lot of people had been treated by Qiao De before. Now that they saw his son, they all lent him money generously.
Within less than one day, Qiao Youliang had already gotten nearly two nuggets of gold!
Then he hurriedly headed to Qiao’s Clinic. He ran and ran. Even though he was suffering from exhaustion, he did not make any stops. After running for five days, he finally saw Qiao’s Clinic. At that moment, the time he spent on the road had already been 10 whole days.
Before he ran to the door, he suddenly froze, as if he had been struck by lightning. At that time, he saw many people wearing mourning apparel outside the clinic…
“Father! Mother! I’ve borrowed enough gold! We can buy the Hemp Purifying Grass now!” After a brief pause, Qiao Youliang was screaming and running crazily inside the clinic. People around were all thinking that he was mad, but he just did not care at all.
“Xiao Liang, you are back… I’m sorry… I’m really sorry…” They had been apart for only 10 days. Qiao De’s hair was all white and he was no longer the vigorous man he was, when he first came to Sunset Town.
“Father… This is not real… Everything is not… real… Mother!!!” Seeing Li Susu was lying inside a broken coffin, her face peaceful and pale, Qiao Youliang could no longer control himself. He threw the gold behind him and sprung to the coffin, crying out loud.
Until that moment, he suddenly hated himself and his father. Why didn’t they charge more fees in those years? If they had had enough savings, his mother would not have died.
…
Within a year after the funeral, Qiao’s Clinic never reopened. People barely saw them. Only some well-informed people knew that Qiao De was dying.
Since Li Susu died, Qiao De had been depressed and gloomy all day. He drank some wine every once in a while. Gradually, his body deteriorated and he could not hold on any longer.
At his bedside, with tears falling down his face, Qiao Youliang held his father, who looked so much older than his years, and could not say anything for a long time.
After his mother’s death, he had not spoken to his father at all. But, all resentments instantly seemed less important at that moment…
“Xiao Liang, I’m sorry… But, you will know that I was right…” After those last words, Qiao De was also gone.
It was late at night and raining heavily. On a waste mountain at the edge of Sunset Town, Qiao Youliang knelt in front of an irregular grave mound and was kowtowing hard. There were two simple wooden boards written with the names of “Father Qiao De” and “Mother Li Susu” separately.
“Father… Mother… You are all gone. How am I going to live by myself…” Qiao Youliang still had tears on his face, and felt a sense of hopelessness and despair.
“Little friend, I’m sorry that death cannot be reversed. Please don’t be too sad.” An old man’s voice suddenly arose at the time.
Stunned, Qiao Youliang jerked his head around to look and saw a lean, old priest wearing a gray robe, standing right beside him.
“You… You are not a human! Well, no, no, no, you are an old immortal!” As soon as he had a clear view of the old priest, he narrowed his eyes. The priest’s body was covered with a layer of dreamy golden light and the rain did not fall on him at all. Except the immortals in the legend, who else could do that?!
“Haha. An immortal? All right. We are destined to meet today. I can offer you an immortal opportunity. Do you want that?” The old priest smiled and brought up an idea, which was quite beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
“To become an immortal?” That idea was not new to Qiao Youliang, as he had heard about all kinds of tales of the immortals. He just never got a chance to see them.
“As an immortal, you may not be able to bring your parents back to life, but you will never die. The most important thing is that that it could help you save more people, which is also what your parents expect of you. What do you think?” The old priest seemed to know how to nail down Qiao Youliang’s soft spot.
“I want to be an immortal! I want to become a real doctor, who can cure both the physical diseases and the mental diseases!” Qiao Youliang was deeply touched as expected, and his expression was also changing. After that cry, he murmured to himself, “Father, mother! I will continue to practice medicine and use the medical skills of the Qiao Family, but… I will also never do it for free…”
