"True, the living might still become the dead, so performing last rites for them all together later would be better!"
"..."
A group of seriously injured people wanted to curse loudly, but at this moment they couldn't speak, or they really would become the dead.
"Cough cough, Master Shifang, do you know Xiaoyao?" Ning Zhiyuan felt this situation was somewhat strange and spoke up to break it, while asking the question most people present wanted to know.
"Shifang? Right, I still don't know your dharma name, so it's Shifang." Xiaoyao was startled, realizing he still didn't know what the old monk was called.
"..."
"Hehe, didn't you say yourself that names are just titles? 'Old monk' is one, 'Shifang' is another - what's the difference?"
"Mm, even knowing it, I still prefer calling you old monk, unless you mind!"
"I don't mind. Old monk is Shifang, Shifang is old monk!" the old monk said with a smile.
…
"Hey hey, don't leave people hanging. Master Shifang, you haven't answered His Majesty's question yet," a minister said to curry favor, feeling that since he couldn't win over the old monk, he might as well take the opportunity to please the Emperor.
However, at this moment, such words seemed to highlight how the old monk and Xiaoyao were ignoring the Great Tang Emperor.
From another perspective, this would actually make Ning Zhiyuan lose face, because originally the conversation between the two was very casual without making people feel there was any problem, but now it made people sense a problem.
"My apologies. This old monk knows Xiaoyao through Buddhist affinity, Xiaoyao's Buddhist insights can make this old monk suddenly enlightened," the old monk put his palms together apologetically, simply resolving the matter so people would stop paying attention to other aspects.
"Buddhism? Le Xiaoyao, you also know Buddhism?" Le Youran looked at Xiaoyao curiously. You even study Buddhism, what else do you know?
"Just a little bit..." Xiaoyao replied.
"Xiaoyao, how are you here?" the old monk asked. His being here was easy to explain, whether for performing last rites or saving people, both worked.
What he didn't understand was Xiaoyao - how could he be here, and seemingly accompanied by Ning Zhiyuan!
"Me? I'm helping you out, letting you perform last rites for fewer people..." Xiaoyao said with a smile, somewhat jokingly.
"..."
Brother, please, could you stop saying those two words "last rites"!!
"Fewer last rites? You mean you're also here to save people? You know medicine?" The old monk wasn't confused and immediately understood Xiaoyao's meaning.
"Just a little bit..." Xiaoyao said the same four words again.
"..."
"Why do you know 'just a little bit' of everything?" Le Youran directly asked her inner doubt.
"Because I'm a servant. My boss wants us to preferably be all-around, knowing a bit of everything. So naturally I need to know a bit of everything, just a little bit though..." Xiaoyao replied with a smile.
"But your 'little bit'..."
"Alright, treatment is important. Whatever else can be discussed later!!" Xiaoyao began doing proper work. This concerned his entry to the Grand Library, reading and learning were very important.
I don't have many good points, just that I like to study...
However, when Xiaoyao prepared to begin, he encountered a problem - everyone here already had someone treating them. He circled around without finding anyone waiting to be saved.
Damn, why do they even need me!!
"Xiaoyao, do you have some problem?" Under Ning Xin'er's reminder, Le Youran asked Xiaoyao a question. She was the most suitable person here to ask him.
Xiaoyao shook his head and said, "No problem. I just feel I'm completely redundant. Everyone here has someone treating them - they don't need me!"
"What do you mean they don't need you? There are many injured here. If you don't save them, they really might need the master to perform last rites," Le Youran said somewhat strangely. Could Xiaoyao not see these people?
Last rites, stop mentioning last rites!! A group of injured people wailed inwardly!!
"There are many injured here, but don't they all already have people treating them?" Xiaoyao replied irritably.
"You can join in too!"
"How can I join in? They're already being treated. Do I go over and say, 'Hey, you're no good, let me do it!'" Xiaoyao glanced at Le Youran and said irritably.
This... this was indeed the case. If Xiaoyao really wanted to interfere, those originally doing the treating would definitely feel unhappy.
At the same time, as Xiaoyao said, the people doing the treating were all experts. The people here wouldn't become the dead unless very, very special circumstances occurred, but that probability was very low. Therefore, there really wasn't anything for Xiaoyao to do here.
If Xiaoyao stayed to save people, the biggest difference would be speeding up recovery, not much other use!!
"Um, Your Majesty, if I leave now, can I still get the Grand Library pass?" Xiaoyao originally wanted to leave, but suddenly remembered that if he left, wouldn't that mean he did nothing? In that case, there would be no reward.
"Of course not. No merit, no reward!"
Before Ning Zhiyuan and others could speak, Le Youran had already answered. In her understanding, if Xiaoyao didn't complete the task, naturally he wouldn't get the reward.
Of course, Le Youran hadn't mentioned that if Xiaoyao wanted that pass, she could help. She could take Xiaoyao into the Grand Library anytime.
"I see. Then over there, over there, let me do it..." Xiaoyao ran to one side to save people, regardless of whether someone was already treating that person.
"..."
"Who are you? Don't cause trouble!"
Everyone watched somewhat speechlessly as Xiaoyao was pushed away. This was quite normal, running over out of nowhere, no one would let this unknown newcomer help, unless Ning Zhiyuan and others introduced him, then it would be possible to let Xiaoyao help.
Then everyone saw something jaw-dropping!
Xiaoyao ignored everyone's rejection, directly went up and removed others' treatment methods, then applied acupuncture, followed by circulating energy to heal injuries.
"Hey hey, what are you doing!"
"Don't mess around! Can you take responsibility if something happens?"
Suddenly that side became chaotic. The injured person innocently wanted to cry, if she could move, she would definitely beat up Xiaoyao, and if she could speak, she would definitely curse loudly.
However, she didn't have this ability because she was seriously injured!!
Those here were basically all seriously injured, especially those still needing treatment at this time!
"Divine Farmer internal energy?"
"Even with Divine Farmer internal energy, it's not omnipotent. With such serious injuries, don't mess around!"
Xiaoyao's Divine Farmer internal energy was discovered, but even after discovery, they didn't think Xiaoyao's Divine Farmer energy could heal the injured person before them, because they felt this level was beyond what Divine Farmer energy alone could solve.
However, Xiaoyao continued, ignoring everyone around him. If not for someone coming to help block for Xiaoyao, he probably couldn't have ignored these people.
"Who are you? Why are you stopping us? He's playing with human life, that's Princess Ning Xue!!"
"I'm called Le Youran. I'll take responsibility for any problems. You all go play somewhere else!"
"..."
When those people called out to the person stopping them, Le Youran's words made them all quiet down. Even if they hadn't heard of Le Youran, they knew the Le family. They didn't want to offend the Le family.
At the same time, since Le Youran said this and His Majesty seemed to be watching without expressing any attitude, apparently acquiescing, then it had nothing to do with them. They could just watch the show from the side.
Let me see what ability this youth has, whether he can really make Princess Ning Xue recover. If not, that would be even better - His Majesty would still need them to continue, which would better show their merit.
At this time, these people didn't believe Xiaoyao could treat Princess Ning Xue well. They felt that when experts like themselves needed so much time, a youth whose hair hadn't even grown properly was absolutely impossible!!
But soon, their jaws dropped to the floor!
The youth they thought hadn't grown proper hair actually did heal Princess Ning Xue, and in a very short time - this was what they found most incredible.
If Xiaoyao had merely healed Princess Ning Xue, this might have only made them feel a bit surprised - they hadn't expected Xiaoyao to have such brilliant medical skills and be able to cure Princess Ning Xue.
But the current situation was that Xiaoyao not only healed Princess Ning Xue, the time spent was only about half an hour, while they had previously spent several hours just temporarily stabilizing the situation. For treatment, they felt they still needed several more hours, at minimum, and that was with their combined efforts.
Now Xiaoyao was just one person, completing in half an hour what they thought would take several hours!
As for Princess Ning Xue's condition, her next action could explain everything!
"Audacious commoner, you dared to toy with this princess's life! Be careful or I'll kill you!! Eh..."
When Xiaoyao withdrew his internal energy, Princess Ning Xue suddenly stood up and loudly berated Xiaoyao. This was a kind of release after being restrained, making her naturally burst out with what she most wanted to do.
After the outburst, she immediately stood dazed, because she discovered her current situation seemed somewhat strange. She should still be lying down seriously injured - why could she jump up and be so energetic?
At this moment, she realized her injuries seemed to have recovered and she could move freely. Except for still feeling somewhat weak, even the pain was gone.
