Transmigration: I, the Dragon Overlord, start by protecting my beautiful bride!
Chapter 72: Visiting the Divine Physician at the Xuanhuang Temple.
"Sir, we haven't been to the Night Watch for two days in a row. Are you sure it's alright?"
The next day.
As agreed yesterday, Jiang Beichuan reappeared outside Long Aotian's courtyard.
"Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry, why are you?" Long Aotian said, and then immediately yawned.
"So where are we going now?"
"Of course, we should go and see the Xuanhuang Temple."
Long Aotian saw that the sun had just risen, and there was still almost a whole day before midnight.
So I decided to go and take a look at the Xuanhuang Temple that Manager Jin mentioned yesterday.
The two walked side by side and bought a few meat buns along the way.
It must be said that the steamed buns of ancient times were truly tastier and healthier than the pre-made ones of today.
Because Qianzhou City was frequently flooded, people had a habit of building Xuanhuang Temples not far from the riverbank or under the bridge.
They wanted to rely on the protection of the gods to escape these floods.
But if there were truly gods in this world, so many tragedies wouldn't have occurred.
Humans are, after all, just humans, one of the animals, and their birth and death are predetermined.
After walking for a while, the two soon arrived near a stone bridge.
There are many houses and alleys under the bridge. These alleys are interconnected, and the houses have a very southern style. They are all made of wooden planks, square in shape, and the ground is covered with bluestone bricks.
The Xuanhuang Temple is located under the bridge, but it seems they arrived at the wrong time, as the place was already packed with people.
"You lot, stop pushing!" Inside the temple, the family member who built the temple stood at the entrance and said to the people in front of him, "If you keep pushing like this, the divine doctor might not treat you if he gets upset!"
Upon hearing this, the villagers who had been jostling around just moments before quickly dispersed, afraid of displeasing the miracle doctor.
"Excuse me, everyone, please make way." Long Aotian and Jiang Beichuan were standing at the back, trying to get in, but the villagers didn't give them any face and pushed them out.
The queue in front of us was practically nonexistent; a group of people had haphazardly formed a few lines at the front, and the rest of the queue was a complete mess.
"Wow..." Long Aotian was quite surprised by what he saw. "This is really exaggerated. Is a divine doctor really that amazing?"
Before Jiang Beichuan could even speak, a man standing beside them immediately said, "Hmph, you two are supposed to be government officials, yet you don't know the truth! This divine doctor can solve any difficult or complicated illness!"
"Is it really that magical?"
"Of course! Our village chief had been suffering from headaches for seven or eight years. Doctors throughout Qianzhou City said they couldn't do anything about it, but guess what happened when this miracle doctor took action?" the man said excitedly. "Hey, he was cured!"
Listening to his words, Long Aotian thought to himself, "He's had a headache for seven or eight years. It's a miracle the village chief didn't die from the pain..."
Then he thought again, actually, not being an official and doing business here is also a good thing.
With his modern, quick-witted mind, wouldn't it be wonderful to start a small business and make some money?
I heard that glass was a very valuable commodity in ancient times!
not sure……
"And let me tell you, Niu Dapeng, Li Ergou, and Zhang Sanfeng from our village were all cured by this miracle doctor!" The man seemed to get more and more excited as he spoke.
"Then, sir, may I ask why you have come to see the divine doctor?" Jiang Beichuan asked from the side.
"Well..." The man smiled upon hearing this, "I have no problem with it. I came here because I heard that this divine doctor is as beautiful as a flower, even more beautiful than a celestial being, and even more beautiful than Shen Juanxin, the eldest daughter of the Shen family in Qianzhou City! I just came to join in the fun."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Beichuan involuntarily turned his head to look at Long Aotian beside him.
Long Aotian sneered and said, "More beautiful than Shen Juanxin? Then I'll have to take a good look."
"Speaking of which, gentlemen, I feel like I've seen you somewhere before?" The man looked at Long Aotian and Jiang Beichuan. He hadn't looked closely before, but now that he did, he realized something was amiss!
"Shen, Shen..." The man finally remembered who the person in front of him was, and he was so frightened that he could barely speak. "Lord Shen, what I just said was all nonsense, please don't take it to heart!"
"Don't worry, I'm not that petty." Long Aotian looked at him and smiled slightly.
He's not that petty; he wouldn't get angry over something like that.
But the line was so long that it would probably be dark by the time we could see this miracle doctor...
Just then, several more horse-drawn carriages suddenly appeared on the streets and alleys.
These carriages all look very luxurious; they must belong to wealthy families.
"Who are you? How can you not line up!"
"Who do you know who I am? You think you can just shout here because you have money? Believe me, I'll have someone beat you so badly you can't get up!"
A young master dressed in fine clothes stepped down from the carriage, accompanied by four or five attendants, each carrying a stick.
They pointed menacingly at the villagers queuing in front of them and forcefully pushed their way through.
"Get to the back of the line." The rich young master walked to the front of the line and glared fiercely at a man with a cane who was standing in line.
The man was initially indignant, but upon seeing the large entourage behind him, he could only sheepishly step back.
The rich young master immediately stepped forward, and upon seeing this, one of his attendants immediately lay down on the ground like a dog, becoming the young master's seat.
"Miracle doctor, I've been feeling a tightness in my chest lately, can you take a look?"
"Excuse me, please go back to the queue and don't disturb other people's medical treatment."
The miracle doctor was very unique; he wore a thick veil, and his voice was as sweet and clear as a mountain spring.
However, the rich young master did not agree to her request. Instead, he turned his head and gave a look to the attendant beside him.
The attendant immediately understood and took out some loose copper coins from his pocket, tossing them behind him.
Upon seeing this, the villagers who were originally queuing immediately turned around and picked up the copper coins on the ground.
Compared to medical treatment, money is more tempting to them.
Besides, this rich young master is alone; wouldn't it be the same if he finished reading it?
"So, now I haven't bothered anyone else, have I?" The rich young master smiled slightly, looking at the renowned doctor before him. "If you don't treat me, I'm not leaving today!"
Seeing this from a distance, Jiang Beichuan immediately wanted to step forward to stop this scoundrel, but was held back by Long Aotian.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
"Shh..."
