"If she encounters any difficulties, please let me know when you return." Dan Shu fumbled with the medicine and handed it to Xing: "This is the prepared medicine. Her home is near Youxia Court, so it will be easy to find her there."

"Okay," Xing replied, taking the medicine and heading to Youxia Court."

"Then she saw a little girl trapped on the wall of the flower bed. The wall wasn't very high, but the girl couldn't get down. There were a few little kids around her making faces at her."

"Xing keenly noticed that the little girl was also blind."

"So, this is the child that Danshu asked her to deliver medicine to?"

"These little brats are so arrogant. Xing just stood there and they came up to pick a fight. Then they found that not only could they not hit Xing, but they also hurt their own hands."

"They all refused to admit defeat, insisting that Xing had used a high-level Hua Jin to break their attacks, and then used internal energy to sneak attack them."

"Anyway, Xing didn't do anything, but they were already broken and ran away crying and cursing."

"Hua Jin?" Zhang Sanfeng blinked.

He is familiar with this!

But, was that Hua Jin that Xing just used? Didn't she just stand there without moving?

"Xing, this kid... apart from anything else, he's really thick-skinned. No wonder he was able to withstand the attack of Doommon."

…………

"Xing carried the little girl down from the flower bed wall. The little girl said gratefully, 'Big sister, thank you for helping me.'"

"Are you okay?" Xing gently brushed the dust off her body. It was rare for him not to be abstract, but rather very gentle."

"I'm fine," the little girl said, shaking her head. "It's my fault. I shouldn't have been running around. I ended up running into those guys. They always make fun of me for being blind, and they always try to trip me up and steal my things."

"He's clearly a child, yet he could do such a wicked thing... Could it be that human nature is truly evil?"

During the Spring and Autumn Period, the blind minister Shi Kuang of the State of Jin could not help but sigh.

He was born blind and had a similar experience in his childhood.

Seeing this scene at this time, I felt deeply touched.

Even though he is now the Grand Master of Music in the Jin Palace, there are still people who look down on him for being blind.

"I really envy Xing. A healthy body is such a blessing."

…………

Seeing that she was so sensible, Xing ruffled her hair and asked, "Do you know Dan Shu?"

"Ah, was it Master Danshu who asked you to come?" the little girl suddenly became happy.

"Yes." Seeing that he had not recognized the wrong person, Xing took out the medicine that Dan Shu had prepared for him and said, "This is for you."

"Thank you, big sister, for bringing it to me." The little girl took the medicine and thanked him sweetly. "Please also thank Master Danshu for me. There's been a lot of trouble lately, so she must be very busy."

"After that, she stumbled back along the same route."

"Why is she coming and going all by herself..." Seeing her stumbling around all by herself, Xing felt really bad for her and wanted to help her several times."

"But, even if she can help this time, can she help next time?"

"She is just a passerby after all. Sooner or later, she will leave."

"She kept watching the child until she disappeared into a house, and then she left with peace of mind."

"Go back and report the situation to Dan Shu."

"Back at Ruomuting, Danshu heard footsteps and asked, "How's it going? Has the medicine been delivered?"

"It's delivered." Xing nodded and told me everything that had happened before.

"…Alas," Dan Shu sighed. "She reminds me of my own childhood. When I was young, I, like her, groped in the darkness, facing obstacles that would appear at any time, and people's unconscious malice."

"Military Advisor, this man doesn't look like a bad person?" Liu Bei became confused as he looked at him.

Dan Shu is now in a high position, but he is still willing to personally prepare medicine for a common girl. No matter how you look at it, he is a kind-hearted person.

"Yes, Military Advisor, she's a good girl no matter how you look at her." Zhang Fei also said, "Anyway, I think most people would definitely not want to waste time preparing medicine for a commoner girl, especially when she can't pay."

Although Guan Yu didn't say anything, he also cast a questioning look.

Could it be that the military advisor is going to fail today?

"Judging from the girl's attitude, Dan Shu probably often brings her medicine. It seems that Dan Shu still has good intentions in his heart." Zhuge Liang waved his fan, calm and composed. "However, my lord, I still insist that there is something fishy about Dan Shu."

"Could it be that the military advisor has discovered some flaw in her?" Liu Bei was curious.

"It wouldn't be considered a flaw," Zhuge Liang chuckled and shook his head. "I just find it strange. When the girl heard that Xing was sent by Dan Shu, although she was happy, she was also a little disappointed. She also said that Dan Shu must be very busy... Liang suspects that the person who brought her medicine wasn't another doctor as Dan Shu said, but Dan Shu himself."

"This... doesn't seem like a big deal, does it?" Zhang Fei scratched his head. "Military Advisor, it doesn't matter who sends it. Maybe Dan Shu is just in a bad mood and doesn't want to move. Everyone has those bad days."

"Hahaha, Yide, that's possible... but it's more likely that she specifically wanted Xing to see the child." Zhuge Liang's tone gradually became lower. "She wanted Xing to think that her decision to join the Medicine King Secret Teachings was justified, that she was doing it for all the disabled children, not out of selfishness."

Liu Bei and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. If this was true, then Dan Shu... must be too cunning.

For all the disabled children? Oh, to save people, then we can skin the Chiming people alive and extract their marrow?

Children born blind are human beings, but the Chiming people are not human beings, right?

All you lost was your spinal cord and life, but what they lost was their future... Is this what Dan Shu meant?

Outrageous, too outrageous!

You did something bad, but still wanted others to think you were right... This kind of behavior is usually called "putting on a good show after becoming a symbol."

Zhuge Liang suddenly burst into laughter. "Hahaha, but all this is based on the assumption that Dan Shu is indeed a member of the Medicine King's Secret Sect. Perhaps, I'm overthinking it."

…………

"Thank you for protecting that child... Xing, can I ask you for one more favor?" Dan Shu asked softly.

"Are you worried about the child's condition?" Xingdu had already guessed her plan."

"Yes, I was worried about her coming and going alone, and I wanted to hear what she was thinking lately. The child's parents died in the Fengraomin War, and the relatives who took her in weren't very close to her. When I was treating her, I often became the one she confided in."
