Exiled, the Medical Concubine emptied the warehouse and escaped from the famine
Chapter 18 Jiang Yunzi
Xie Ling turned her head and stared at him, asking in confusion: "Why do you say no?"
The man said in a gentle voice: "Didn't you just say that you already have a family? You can't get married before you leave Mingyue Island, so I'm saying no for you."
Xie Ling narrowed her eyes and believed this statement for the time being.
When the old man heard what the man said, he was as anxious as a child and jumped in front of Xie Ling. "Little girl, don't listen to his nonsense! Although the island rules are written like that, I, Jiang Yunzi's disciple, don't have to follow those red tape!"
Xie Ling didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "That's not the reason. I was born free and unfettered. I don't want to be trapped in one place. I prefer to be free and easy."
The man in black raised his eyebrows slightly.
When the old man heard Xie Ling's words, the light in his eyes became brighter.
He grabbed a corner of Xie Ling's curtain and said, "Really, you are the most compatible person I have ever met in my life, except for my master! I must accept you as my disciple and pass on the legacy of my sect, otherwise I will not be at peace even when I die!"
Xie Ling laughed: "But I really don't want to go to Mingyue Island."
The old man's eyes lit up: "So you don't want to go to Mingyue Island? That's easy, I'll follow you, and I'll leave after I teach you medical skills."
After saying that, he held on even tighter, puffed out his beard and glared, as if he was determined to follow Xie Ling.
The man in black said calmly, "Sir, why don't you accept disciples in Mingyue Island? Your medical skills are the best in the seven countries, and your reputation is known throughout the world. I'm afraid the people in Mingyue Island are vying to become your disciples."
Jiang Yunzi stroked his beard and said, "I value fate more. If someone doesn't have a good impression of me, I won't accept him even if he kneels before me. Little girl, do you really not want to be my disciple?"
Xie Ling didn't know who Jiang Yunzi was, but from what the man in black said, he should be a very famous doctor in the world.
She shook her head gently, "I'm sorry, it's not that I look down on you, sir, it's just that I don't have time to study right now."
Jiang Yunzi let out a long sigh, his eyes full of dejection.
"Well, well, well! Then you can walk with me."
Xie Ling nodded, and the man followed.
The three of them walked out of Fengyu Tower and came to the bustling market in Baishui Town.
The moonlight was as bright as a silver thread, and Jiang Yunzi walked at the front with his hands behind his back.
He didn't know what he was thinking about, looking at the surging Baishui River, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.
"When I was young, I listened to the rain in the singing hall, with red candles dimming the curtains. When I was in my prime, I listened to the rain in a boat, with the river wide and the clouds low, and the geese crying in the west wind. Now I listen to the rain in the monk's hut, with white hair on my temples. Let's go buy some wine!"
As he spoke, he took Xie Ling and the man in black to a tavern.
Jiang Yunzi slapped the table and said, "Bring ten jars of Liuyeqing!"
The shopkeeper was about to go to bed, but when he saw customers coming, he came over with sleepy eyes and slippers to serve them wine.
But the outfits of these three people look weird no matter how you look at them.
A person was completely wrapped in white gauze, and it was impossible to tell whether he was a man or a woman.
One was wearing a black robe and a golden mask so his face couldn't be seen.
The only normal one is the old man with white hair and a youthful face.
Xie Ling and the man in black didn't drink a drop of alcohol.
Only Jiang Yunzi was drunk.
He lay on the table, like a naughty old boy, slapping the table and shouting: "Master, your tomb is hidden so far away and so hidden, but they finally found it. They want to dig your grave, and your disciple can't stop them, can't stop them!"
Jiang Yunzi howled and grabbed Xie Ling's arm: "Little girl, just be my apprentice. The only wish of my life is for someone to inherit my medical skills."
If the people from Mingyue Island, or the royal nobles from other countries who had sought medical treatment from Jiang Yunzi, saw Jiang Yunzi like this, they would be shocked.
Jiang Yunzi, the "medical genius" of Mingyue Island, has always been proud and aloof. He has refused countless people who asked him to treat their illnesses and competed to be his apprentice. How could he have ever begged in such a humble manner?
Xie Ling was somewhat helpless, "Why me? Anyone with a little knowledge of pharmacology can see the mistake in that prescription."
Jiang Yunzi shook his head.
"I can see that your understanding of medical skills is far more than this. Most importantly, you live a carefree and carefree life, which is pleasing to me!"
After saying that, he glanced at Xie Ling aggrievedly, "It's a pity that you don't want to."
Seeing an old man throwing a tantrum in front of him, Xie Ling finally softened his heart and sighed, "I can agree to be your disciple."
Jiang Yunzi's eyes were like two lanterns, lighting up in an instant.
"But!" Xie Ling changed the subject, "It will take three years. I need three years to deal with my affairs. After three years, I will write a letter to Mingyue Island to discuss how to teach."
"Sure, sure, sure. No problem at all."
There were two red clouds on Jiang Yunzi's face, not only because of drunkenness, but also because of excitement.
Since she had become a disciple, Xie Ling did not act pretentiously. She lifted the curtain and knelt down to pay her respects.
"Master, please accept my disciple's greetings."
Jiang Yunzi quickly pulled her up and said, "I've already said that I don't care about these empty formalities. Only the people of Mingyue Island like these red tapes."
Xie Ling was puzzled, "Aren't you from Mingyue Island?"
Jiang Yunzi's face was somewhat sarcastic. "Mingyue Island is full of undercurrents... It's hard to explain in a few words. I will explain it to you in detail later."
His eyes stopped at Xie Ling's face, and he asked in surprise: "I heard you sound like a little girl, but I didn't expect you to be so young. How old are you?"
Xie Ling replied: "Fifteen."
Jiang Yunzi nodded. "It doesn't matter if you are young. Have you read books like Huangdi Neijing and Compendium of Materia Medica?"
Xie Ling nodded.
Then, the two of them had a heated discussion about medical skills.
The more Jiang Yunzi listened, the more excited he became. He felt like he had picked up a treasure!
Xie Ling was also very happy. Although the medical skills in this world were not as developed as those in her time, they still had their merits. This trip was not in vain!
It wasn't until the man in black knocked on the table that the two men were pulled out of their discussion.
The man leaned lazily against the back of the chair, his whole body was elegant, his long fingers were as white as snow, and he reminded calmly, "The shopkeeper is about to fall asleep."
Jiang Yunzi moistened his throat and turned his gaze towards him, "By the way, what's your name, and who are you to me as a disciple?"
Xie Ling said: "He and I just met by chance."
The man in black raised his eyes and glanced at Xie Ling with a complicated look, then looked at Jiang Yunzi and said, "Sir, my name is Jingxuan."
Jiang Yunzi's eyes widened, and he suddenly realized, "You are the little Jingxuan from Tingxue Tower. Have you grown up so much? No wonder you look more and more familiar to me. Why are you here?"
Xie Ling became more and more confused. What the hell was Tingxue Tower?
A light bulb went off in her head, and she suddenly remembered the four major sects that Pei had told her about. Tingxue Tower seemed to be one of them.
Jing Xuan nodded gently, not hiding his identity, "I just happened to pass by and saw Mingyue Island came out, so I came to join in the fun."
Jiang Yunzi lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, he looked up at the sky, as if he had made a decision, and said solemnly: "Can you help me do something?"
Xie Ling frowned, "Master, just say whatever you want. I will definitely help you to the end within my ability."
Jiang Yunzi took a deep breath, "Tomb robbing!"
Xie Ling's eyes widened.
Grave robbing?
Jiang Yunzi took out a map and a key from his arms and handed them to Xie Ling.
He glanced at the sky and said hurriedly, "It's still early in the morning. Go quickly and don't let the people from Mingyue Island get the upper hand. All the gold, silver and jewelry in the tomb belong to you. Just bring back half of the medical book for me!"
