Chapter 292: Chapter 216: Something Strange in the Sky, Cold and Deadly Aura

“Quick, there’s a Daoist temple ahead, let’s go there to take shelter from the rain!”

“Xiao Rou, hang in there for a bit longer, we’ve found a place to shelter from the rain!”

“Once we’re inside the temple, we’ll start a fire to warm up, you’ll be all right!”

…

Amidst the noise, five or six people burst into the main hall, all completely soaked, carrying bundles on their shoulders, some even carrying weapons, clearly not ordinary folks.

One of them was also carrying a young girl on his back.

...

As the group entered the hall and saw that there were already people inside, they hesitated for a moment but soon didn’t mind.

After nodding to Lu Qing and his group, they hurriedly moved to the side and laid the girl down.

But at this moment, the girl’s condition did not look too good.

Her face was pale, her lips a livid blue, her body trembling, and a faint smell of blood emanated from her, she had already fallen into a semi-comatose state.

“Xiao Rou, Xiao Rou, wake up!”

The middle-aged man who had carried her in shook her shoulders, trying to wake her.

However, the girl only barely opened her eyes to look at him, whispered “Dad” slowly, and then passed out again.

“Xiao Rou!”

The middle-aged man exclaimed in shock, shaking the girl again.

Especially seeing that the girl’s breathing was growing fainter, his eyes reddened with urgency.

“Master, what should we do?”

The others were also becoming anxious.

Unfortunately, they had lost their luggage along the way and now had no medical supplies, completely unable to help.

“Sir, could you allow me, an elder doctor, to take a look?”

Just as everyone was extremely anxious, a gentle voice sounded.

They looked up and saw a kindly and gentle old man standing before them.

It was Old Doctor Chen.

In fact, the moment Elder Chen saw the girl, his expression had grown serious.

Seeing that the group of middle-aged men seemed helpless after the girl had passed out, he couldn’t hold back and said,

“Who is the elder?”

The middle-aged man asked hesitantly.

“I am a doctor, with some experience in treating diseases and injuries, perhaps I can help,” Elder Chen said kindly.

“You are a doctor? That’s wonderful!” The middle-aged man exclaimed joyfully, hastening to make room, “Please, elder, my daughter has been injured and has also been drenched in the heavy rain for a long time, she’s now unconscious, I beg you to save her, I will be greatly thankful.”

“Let me check on her first.”

Elder Chen bent down to take the girl’s pulse, but as soon as his fingers touched her wrist, his expression changed.

“Ah Qing, brew the medicine immediately, one dose of Heart Protecting Soup, boil it fiercely, quickly!”

“Little Yan, fetch my medical box!”

“Yes, Master!”

Lu Qing, seeing his master’s tone this urgent, knew the girl’s condition was quite bad, quickly took out herbs from his luggage.

Little Yan also sensibly fetched Elder Chen’s medical box at this time.

The middle-aged men, seeing this scene, relaxed a lot in their hearts.

Since they carried so many herbs and a medical box,

Clearly, the elder in front of them was indeed a doctor.

Elder Chen took the medical box, retrieved a needle pouch from it,

First, he inserted a few silver needles into the girl’s body.

Then he raised his head and said to the middle-aged man, “Sir, your daughter’s condition is not good, I must administer acupuncture immediately. Additionally, her wet clothes must also be changed, who will help with this?”

The middle-aged man immediately said, “Qian Lin, you help your junior sister change her clothes.”

“Yes, Master!” A woman in her twenties stood up.

However, her face also showed difficulty, “Master, we’ve lost our luggage, and the packages are completely soaked by the rain, I fear there are no dry clothes left.”

The middle-aged man then looked back at Elder Chen helplessly.

Elder Chen pondered for a moment and said, “We do have clean clothes, but they are men’s clothes, I’m not sure if that’s appropriate.”

In Lu Qing’s group, aside from Little Yan, the rest were all grown men, naturally not having young women’s clothes.

“Rough it out, river and lakes folk aren’t particular, please lend us a few sets of clothes, I can pay for them.”

The middle-aged man immediately said so.

“Help those in urgent need, no need to be so polite, Zi’an, fetch a few sets of clean clothes over.”

“Yes.”

Wei Zian quickly brought the clothes, and the woman named Qian Lin, carrying the girl, followed Elder Chen to the inner part of the great hall.

Even Little Yan was called in by Elder Chen to help.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man finally put his heart at ease.

Elder Chen was old enough to be his grandfather, and with a little girl there, obviously, there was no ill intent towards his daughter.

“Little Yan, go help, clean this elder sister’s body and change her clothes.”

Elder Chen took the silver needles previously inserted into the girl’s body, turned his back, and instructed.

“Okay~”

Little Yan obediently responded.

The woman named Qian Lin, seeing Little Yan’s petite body, initially wanted to refuse, but alone, she found it difficult to dress her unconscious junior sister, so ultimately she acquiesced.

Then, when Little Yan truly helped, the woman was surprised.

This little girl looked small, but she was quite strong, with her help, she very easily changed the junior sister’s clothes.

After the girl was dressed, Elder Chen then turned around, took out the silver needles, and began to formally administer the acupuncture.
