The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

"Wow! Dr. Bai, come quick! My brother's trying to run away! Are you going to give him a shot?!"

No sooner had Qiqi finished speaking than a boy wearing a winter hat ran out of a side door of Bubulu.

"Huh? Where is Mr. Yu Jin?" Bai Shu instinctively felt that Yu Jin had disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"My gut feeling tells me he should go to the escape patient's ward," Dain muttered, brushing the dust off his clothes.

"Tok, don't worry, I'll go take a look. Even an executive officer can't ignore medical advice." Bai Shu patted Tok's head, then walked into Bu Bu Lu's ward with a dangerous aura.

"You... don't come any closer!"

"Hehehe, even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save you!"

"What are you doing?"

Just as Yu Jin finished speaking, Bai Shu walked in. He pushed up his glasses, looked at the scene before him in shock, and asked...

The young master was slumped on the hospital bed, his face showing signs of shock, clearly quite frightened.

Ember, meanwhile, sat imposingly on the window frame, effectively blocking the open window.

"You seem to be quite agile. Why are you in a hospital bed? Are you trying to slack off?"

"Ironclad!" Yu Jin asked the young master fiercely. Just now, the young master had almost knocked him over with a "Duang!" Is that the strength a patient should have?

They definitely don't want to dig the riverbed; they just want to slack off!

"But I injured my wrist!" the young master said, looking at his hands, which were wrapped up like white rice dumplings, with tears welling up in his eyes.

What the hell? Why did I run into Ember again while I was recovering from my injuries and taking a break?

"What? Then it's alright." Yu Jin saw the young master jump down from the window frame, his "round hand" almost wrapped up like a silkworm cocoon.

"Don't move..." After seeing Yu Jin jump down, Bai Shu went forward to check the young master's wrist.

"It's alright, nothing serious. He just needs to take another dose of medicine." Bai Shu said with a sigh of relief after examining the young master's "white pig's trotters".

Looking at the young master who had obediently lay down again, Bai Shu turned his head and called out, "Qi Qi, bring over the concentrated Qingxin Elixir, we need it."

"Come on... come on!"

This time, Qiqi reacted unusually quickly. Almost as soon as Bai Shu finished speaking, Qiqi ran over with a bottle of liquid that looked like water.

"Give!"

Qiqi put down the medicine bottle and quickly moved away from the place as if she had seen some kind of monstrous flood.

Qiqi has forgotten many things, but there are some things she will never forget.

For example, coconut milk is delicious, Mr. Bai's medicine is very bitter, and the one containing the words "Qingxin" (清心, meaning "clear mind") is the most bitter, etc...

These are things that Qiqi would never forget even without a notebook.

"Tok, feed this medicine to your brother, don't spill a drop!" Bai Shu said to Tok and the young master with a smile.

"Ember, Dain, let's go. Let's find a quieter place to talk." The screams behind Bai Shu, coupled with the smile on his face, made him seem even more cunning.

Looking at the young master with a gourd-like face not far away, Yu Jin felt inexplicably sorry for him, but good medicine tastes bitter, and there was nothing he could do.

After taking such bitter medicine, young master should recover quickly... right?

"What a peculiar little girl, her life force is locked away?" Dain asked with interest as he watched Qiqi, with the talisman stuck to her head, walk away.

“Mr. Dain must be even more special than Qiqi, right?” Bai Shu nodded, and then led Yu Jin and Dain into a medicine room deep inside Bubulu.

"Are you two here for medical treatment?" Bai Shu asked, closing the door and staring intently at Dain.

Although Bai Shu's gaze was directed at Dain, Dain herself turned her head to look at Yu Jin beside her.

“Sick? Neither of us is sick.” Yu Jin shrugged.

"Oh? That's strange. Mr. Din's appearance seems somewhat different from that of a normal person." Bai Shu looked incredulous. Anyone who wasn't blind could tell that there was something wrong with Din's appearance.

"Hey, let's not talk about that. Let me ask you, Bai Shu, are you seeking immortality?"

"I'm already here with Bai Shu."

The small snake beside Bai Shu's neck responded to Yu Jin's words, resembling both a boy and a girl.

"Oh, so your name is Changsheng. I thought your name was Xiaobai." Yu Jin glanced at Changsheng, who was speaking, and then paid no more attention to him.

It's just a talking snake, is that rare?

As long as the cursed frog doesn't speak, nothing can scare Ember.

"What a random name?" Changsheng felt that Yu Jin was making fun of him. Would anyone really come up with such a random name?

"Indeed, human lifespan has an end. For mortals, immortality is arguably the greatest temptation."

"I'm no exception."

Bai Shu smiled, appearing extremely frank.

“No!” Yu Jin refuted Bai Shu’s words with great confidence. Because he saw that Bai Shu’s aura was almost connected with Chang Sheng’s.

Moreover, there were wisps of black energy swirling around Bai Zhu's body, indicating that he had absorbed things that did not belong to him.

"You seek immortality because of the little white snake inside you!"

"My name is Changsheng."

"I can't help but remind you," Changsheng said weakly.

Upon hearing this, Bai Shu's smile gradually faded. He sighed and remarked, "It is widely known that Mr. Yu Jin is exceptionally skilled. Seeing him today, I can confirm that his reputation is well-deserved."

"So, Mr. Ember, you came here this time for 'immortality'?"

“That’s right!” Ember nodded, then introduced Dain to Bai Shu in the same way he had introduced Abedo:

"Bai Zhu, I have good news for you! Dain is more suited for immortality than you!"

Yu Jin said in a tone that sounded like, "You're really lucky, Bai Shu."

"???"

Dain was filled with question marks again.

Chapter 358 Let's Abandon Martial Arts and Become a Doctor, Dain

2023-12-22

“I don’t need a snake as a pet, even if it can talk.”

After a brief moment of surprise, Dain came to her senses. Although the white snake around Bai Shu's neck was quite mysterious, Dain had no interest in it.

At most, one might feel a slight sense of surprise.

"I'm not a pet, and I don't like people who wear eye patches!"

"How come I've never heard of you having this habit before?"

Hearing Changsheng's angry shouts, a hint of surprise appeared in Baishu's eyes.

Is there such a taboo about immortality? But it didn't seem to have any extreme reaction when treating patients with eye diseases.

"Now there is!"

Changsheng ground his teeth and snorted angrily.

"Hehe, you're so many generations older than me, how come you're acting like a child?"

Hearing Changsheng's childish sulking, Bai Shu shook his head and smiled helplessly.

"I'm old in years but young at heart, what do you, a junior, know?" Changsheng raised his delicate head, adopting an air of mature arrogance.

Seeing this, Bai Zhu did not argue with Chang Sheng. Having spent so much time with Chang Sheng, Bai Zhu knew its temperament very well.

"Ember, you've seen it too. Changsheng and I have a very close connection."

Bai Zhu sat down in front of the storage cabinet in the medicine room and brewed herself a cup of nourishing tea.

"Want some? It's very nourishing." Seeing Yu Jin's curious look, Bai Shu raised his teacup and said with a smile.

Yu Jin peeked out and looked at the tea in Bai Shu's hand. It contained all sorts of ginseng and fruit, and just one glance was enough to tell that it would definitely make someone's nose bleed.

"See? I told you, Dain is more suited for immortality than you. Look at you, you're so weak."

Yu Jin snatched the teacup from Bai Shu's hand, examined it for a moment, and then put it down again.

He ran to Din's side and tapped his body, but aside from earning a glare from Din, he couldn't budge him at all.

"Look at this, how sturdy this body is, it can definitely withstand any damage."

Ember was trying to sell Dain to Changsheng as if he were promoting something great.

Then he got another eye roll, and with Dain's, Ember had already gotten two eye rolls.

Bai Shu didn't roll his eyes at Yu Jin again. Hearing Yu Jin's words, he nodded thoughtfully and fell into deep thought.

After a long while, Bai Shu took a sip of the health-preserving tea, then looked up at Yu Jin and said:

"It seems Mr. Ember knows more than I thought."

"Of course, the secrets between the two of you can't be hidden from my eyes."

Yu Jin waved his hand at Bai Shu, feigning modesty.

After finishing his boastful talk, he placed his hands on the table and said in a serious tone, "Young man, I'm not trying to scare you, but if you keep going like this, you won't live much longer!"

Ember's words made Dain glance at Bai Shu a few more times. Judging from their recent experience, this person named Bai Shu not only possessed superb medical skills but also had a rare compassion.

What's even more difficult is that he's still young, and Dai Yin can only imagine how many people Bai Shu will save in the future.

But now Ember tells him that Whitebringer is dying, how could Dain not be surprised?

"Of course I know that, otherwise I wouldn't be so eager to seek the elixir of immortality."

"The owner of Bubulu is a skilled physician named Baizhu, who is obsessed with elixirs of immortality. This is common knowledge among the people around Bubulu."

"If my days weren't numbered, why would I be making such a big fuss?"

As Bai Shu spoke, he sighed. He wasn't one to show off, but the elixir of immortality was extremely hard to find, and his health was deteriorating day by day. Left with no other choice, he had to resort to this desperate measure.

Even taking in the slow-moving Qiqi harbored a slight desire to study zombies in order to achieve immortality.

However, Bai Shu gradually came to regard Qi Qi as his younger sister.
