Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 76 Purple and Green Swords
Mrs. Cai stopped chatting with Zeng Jing and went out to meet Madam Wan to reminisce about the past.

Zeng Jing was the only one left in the empty lobby. She looked quietly at Huang Sixi outside the door, not knowing what she was thinking.

Huang Sixi quickly noticed her gaze and immediately left the girl from the Wan family and walked towards her.

"It's too noisy here, let's go to the inner hall."

Huang Sixi led her into the inner hall, and after they sat down, he asked her, "I have been busy with my business these days and have not visited you. How is your injury? Are you feeling any discomfort?"

Zeng Jing said she did not feel any discomfort, the swelling on her face had long gone away, and her appearance has now returned to normal.

Huang Sixi asked her to take off her veil and then examined her again.

After she took off her veil, Huang Sixi looked at her and couldn't help but smile: "Your face is much more beautiful now than before. Why do you want to make yourself ugly?"

Her facial features are now delicate, cool, bright and attractive, more charming than the yellow-faced woman after disguise.

Zeng Jing hesitated and said, "I have some unspeakable secrets, and I don't know how to tell you."

Huang Sixi did not make it difficult for her: "Then don't talk about it for now. When you have thought it through, we can talk about it again."

Huang Sixi reached out to touch her cheek. She had regained her original appearance as Xiyu, but her face was not delicate and flawless enough because there were a few faint scars left where Huang Sixi had operated.

Although these scars are barely noticeable and can only be seen by looking closely at the face, it still means that Huang Sixi's treatment was not perfect.

He didn't want to leave any regrets, so he told Zeng Jing: "Come here every day to get two bottles of honey. I will prepare it specially for you, one bottle for internal use and one bottle for external application."

Zeng Jing asked: "You only take honey and no other medicine?"

“It’s no longer necessary!”

Huang Sixi said, "Your facial injury has completely healed and will not recur in the future. It is no problem to get wet, but you still have scars on your face. The honey I prepared can remove scars and beautify your skin. Long-term use will be very beneficial to your body."

Zeng Jing thought that the doctor's term "beauty and skin care" was very fresh and couldn't be more appropriate when used on women. She couldn't help but laugh and said, "Can long-term consumption of honey make you more beautiful?"

Huang Sixi suddenly said, "I forgot that you are willing to go through surgery on your face to make yourself ugly. I'm afraid that becoming beautiful is not what you want. Then give up honey. I'll prescribe you some other medicine!"

"No, no, I won't quit!"

Zeng Jing quickly shook her head and became incoherent, which was unusual for her: "Ah Si, I like drinking your honey. You can open as many bottles as you want. I will buy them all."

Which woman in the world doesn't love beauty? She has already restored her original appearance, so naturally she doesn't want to have scars anymore.

She also realized that she had lost her composure, so she quickly changed the subject: "You have worked hard to see me during these days. You can calculate the consultation fee and I will settle it for you."

Huang Sixi pointed at the veil on the table and said, "Do you need to put on makeup to disguise yourself in the future? Your face is very raw now. If Mrs. Cai saw you in person, she would definitely not recognize you as Ah Jing."

Zeng Jing couldn't help nodding: "Yes!"

She asked again: "Ah Si, when can you help me change my appearance?"

Huang Sixi said: "Wait for a moment, the disguise drugs are hard to find. I will come to your house to find you after I find them all."

Huang Sixi was not being perfunctory.

He has a collection of disguise mud on him, but the amount is not much.

Zeng Jing needed to disguise himself for a long time, and the yellow mud he had was not enough.

He is currently looking for similar clay objects, and will start to make up Zeng Jing once he finds them.

"What about the consultation fee?"

"Wait until I change your appearance and test the effect, then we can settle the bill together!"

Zeng Jing agreed to Huang Sixi's arrangement and still took out a purse filled with gold and placed it in front of Huang Sixi.

"Ah Jing, I just said that it won't be too late to settle the consultation fee in a few days."

“This is not the consultation fee!”

Zeng Jing smiled and said, "You are opening your business today. This is my gift to you to celebrate your opening!"

She stood up and said, "You must be very busy today, so I won't bother you."

She turned and left the inner hall, going out to look for Grandma Cai, but seeing that she was still chatting enthusiastically with Madam Wan, she did not go over.

She watched the acrobatic performance outside the hall for a while, then quietly walked out of the crowd and returned to her home.

Throughout the morning, there were lion and dragon dances outside the "Si Xi Pharmacy", attracting neighbors to stop and watch, and the scene was extremely lively.

By the afternoon, as the acrobatic troupe left, Mr. Wan and Mrs. Wan also said goodbye one after another, and the order in the hall returned to normal and gradually became deserted.

Huang Sixi sat alone in the hall, feeling very bored, and prepared to close the business and go home to raise bees.

As a result, a loud shouting sound was heard outside the door.

Huang Sixi looked outside and saw two wandering martial artists. One of them, a bearded man, was injured on the outside of his thigh and was bleeding profusely. He was supported by another young man in black and stopped at the door of Sixi Pharmacy.

"Third brother, there is a pharmacy here. Look at the plaque. It says that it specializes in treating external injuries. Shall we go in and take a look?"

"These small-street pharmacies usually don't have skilled doctors."

"Your wound won't stop bleeding. Let the doctor bandage your wound first, and then we can find another famous doctor."

"Okay then, let's go in."

"Doctor, may I ask where the doctor is?"

Huang Sixi was standing in the hall.

The young man in black was standing at the door shouting, but when he looked up and saw Huang Sixi, he shut up, walked into the hall holding his bearded man, and put his bearded man on a chair in the hall first.

Then he asked Huang Sixi: "My brother was injured by a sword. Doctor, can you treat him?"

The young man in black had a simple and honest face and a very polite attitude.

Huang Sixi said: "Of course I can cure it, otherwise I wouldn't put up a sign saying that I specialize in treating external injuries." The young man in black quickly bowed and said: "Then please, doctor, save my brother."

Huang Sixi pointed at the bloodstains on the ground and said, "You have to clean the floor. The consultation fee is 100 taels of silver. If you don't want to work and can't pay, then leave immediately and find another doctor for treatment."

The bearded man looked quite fierce. When he heard Huang Sixi's words, he felt contemptuous. He had been in the martial arts world for so many years, but had never seen such a crazy doctor. He thought, if you can't cure me, then we'll see how you end up. Money is not something that can be cheated easily.

In an emergency, the young man in black decided to follow Huang Sixi's orders.

He took out a gold bar from his bosom and handed it to Huang Sixi: "This gold is more valuable than a hundred taels of silver. Give it all to the doctor as consultation fee!"

After he said that, he took off his black shirt, squatted on the ground without saying a word, and began to wipe the blood stains diligently.

Seeing how skillful he was, Huang Sixi took out a bottle of medicine for wounds and handed it to the bearded man: "Apply it to the wound first."

He returned to the inner hall to get medical supplies to mend his sword wound.

The bearded man took the medicine bottle and finally decided to do as he was told. The wound on his leg was quite large and he was in unbearable pain.

Once the golden wound medicine is applied to the wound, the bleeding will stop instantly.

"what!"

"How's it going, Third Brother? Is his medicine effective?"

"The bleeding-stopping effect is very good. This doctor is not a quack. He has some skills."

"That would be great."

When the young man in black saw Huang Sixi coming out of the inner hall, he quickly smiled and said, "Doctor, you laid wooden floors. The bloodstains dripped onto them and it's hard to clean. You treat my brother's injury first. I'll go buy some sandalwood and renovate the floor of your hall later."

Huang Sixi ignored it.

He sat down next to the bearded man, took out the needle and thread, first pressed the numb points on the bearded man's leg, and then sutured the sword wound.

This treatment method is quite novel and not common in the medical field. It is Li Guishou's unique skill and was inherited by Huang Sixi.

After Huang Sixi had sewn up his wound and wrapped it with a bandage, the bearded man stood up from his seat and found that he could walk again. The wound no longer affected him as seriously as before, which made him exclaim in amazement.

“Awesome, really awesome!”

The bearded man couldn't help but admire Huang Sixi: "Doctor, you are a miracle doctor. May I ask what your name is?"

Huang Sixi did not answer, but warned him: "You must go home and rest in bed now. Don't move around. Otherwise, the needle and thread will break, causing the wound to rupture. Then your life will be in danger."

He immediately followed the doctor's advice, returned to his seat, clasped his fists and said, "Doctor, my surname is Du, and I am not from the capital. I came here from Gansu and Longnan to investigate a murder committed by a disciple of Kongtong Sect. As a result, I was careless for a moment and was slashed by a sword. If it weren't for my brother protecting me, I'm afraid I would have lost my life!"

He does have a northwestern accent, and his appearance also has the rough air of a northwestern warrior.

He added: "I have a duty to fulfill and need to track down the thief. Can the doctor give me an accurate estimate of how many days I need to stay in bed before I can move freely?"

"About ten days to half a month!"

Huang Sixi told him: "Come to the pharmacy and I will remove the stitches for you. After the stitches are removed, you will basically have no problem walking, but you cannot do strenuous activities, and you certainly cannot use force."

"How long will it take to heal completely?" the bearded man asked again.

"At least one month." Huang Sixi replied.

The bearded man couldn't help but frown. If he delayed for a month, his job would definitely be ruined.

At this time, the young man in black said, "Third brother, you stay in the inn to recover first. I can go and track down the couple from Kongtong Sect."

When Huang Sixi heard them repeatedly mention the Kongtong Sect, he suddenly remembered the purple and green swords in "Sword Rain".

The Purple and Green Swords were originally a master and disciple, but later became husband and wife, and had a bad reputation in the martial arts world.

In the original book, their behavior was also very bad. They secretly imitated half of Rama's body, used the fake body as bait, and waited for an opportunity to snatch the real body. As a result, they were both killed.

There are two parts of Rama's body, the upper and lower parts. Xiyu Zengjing took away half of it, and the clue to the other half is on the purple and green swords.

But the Kongtong sect was well-known in the martial arts world and had many disciples. Huang Sixi was not sure whether the bearded man and the young man in black were talking about the purple and green swords.

He asked, "I have treated many Jianghu figures in the past, and I heard them mention that the Kongtong Sect has a great reputation in the martial arts world. What kind of murder did the Kongtong Sect disciple you are hunting commit?"

Thanks to Huang Sixi's kindness in treating his injuries, the bearded man restrained his temper and showed patience for once.

He just explained: "Doctor, Kongtong Sect was indeed a famous sect in the past, but in the current generation, its reputation is very bad! There is a master and apprentice in this sect, nicknamed 'Purple and Green Swords', who are unruly and secretly collude with each other. They have evil intentions and kill people and rob people at will!
Not long ago, a craftsman in Ganlong offended them for some reason, and they killed the whole family. The neighbors of the craftsman saw them appearing in the craftsman's house, but because they had no evidence, the Kongtong Sect was unwilling to intervene and they could not bring them to justice. It happened that I had an old relationship with the craftsman, so I wanted to ask them for an explanation, but they were so vicious that they plotted against me!"

"Craftsman? Could it be that the craftsman is also a gangster and has a grudge against them?"

"Absolutely not! I can guarantee that the craftsman is just an ordinary sculpture master who doesn't know martial arts and has never been around in the martial arts world! I can't guess the motive of the Purple and Green Swords, but they have killed innocent people more than once or twice."

When Huang Sixi heard the bearded man mention "sculptor", he suddenly understood.

He thought that the Purple and Green Swords were most likely made by the craftsman from half of Rama's body. He was worried that the news would leak out, so he killed the craftsman to silence him.

If this is the case, the Purple and Green Swords came to the capital this time probably to find an opportunity to snatch Rama's body by "substituting one thing for another".

As long as Huang Sixi finds the purple and green swords, he can follow the clues and find the whereabouts of the other half of Rama's body.

Thinking of this, he said to the bearded man and the young man in black, "No matter who you go after, this sword wound won't heal within half a month. Anyway, I'm reminding you so much, you better take care of yourself."

The bearded man and the young man in black clasped their fists together and said, "Thank you for your treatment, doctor. We will come back to trouble you in half a month and give you another thank you gift then!"

The two walked to the door, and the young man in black turned around and said, "I will arrange for someone to come and replace the floor this afternoon. Doctor, just wait."

Huang Sixi did not object, but he would not wait for him.

The two just disappeared at the end of the street.

Huang Sixi closed the door of the pharmacy and followed.

　A new week has arrived, please support me with your monthly passes and recommendation votes, thank you.
