Chapter 24 Accident
Zheng Xinghan smiled unnaturally and didn't refute.
Nangong Yue's family is wealthy and he has some influence in the XC area. Not only that, Nangong Yue is very talented in martial arts and is highly valued by Zuo Le. Zheng Xinghan naturally has no need to offend him for this matter.
Nangong Yue's expression improved when he saw Zheng Xinghan didn't refute him. He was about to continue practicing martial arts, but when he saw Qin Ziling striding towards them, his expression darkened again.
Zheng Xinghan also saw Qin Ziling walking towards them at this time. He thought that he had heard Nangong Yue say bad things about him behind his back and was coming to ask for an explanation. His face changed slightly, and he hurriedly went to meet him, stopped him and asked, "Ziling, what do you want to talk to me about?"
While speaking, Zheng Xinghan even gave him a look on purpose.
"Yes, Senior Brother Zheng, I do need your help with something." Qin Ziling replied without even looking at Nangong Yue behind Zheng Xinghan.
"Oh, what's the matter? Tell me." Zheng Xinghan asked curiously when he saw that Qin Ziling was really looking for him.
"I want to borrow a cart." Qin Ziling said.
Zheng Xinghan is 32 years old this year. Although he has reached the Iron Skin level and is considered a good fighter in Fangqiao City, he has passed the peak of Qi and Blood and has no hope of reaching the realm of strength. He stayed in the martial arts hall mainly to help Zuo Le manage the affairs of the martial arts hall.
Some daily affairs in the martial arts school are basically managed by Zheng Xinghan, and Zuo Le doesn't care.
"It's just a small matter. You can go to the backyard to get it and remember to return it in time." Seeing that it was just a small matter, Zheng Xinghan didn't think much about it and said with a wave of his hand.
"Thank you, Brother Zheng. In addition to this matter, I would also like to ask if you have anything convenient to do. I have two Yixue Pills that I just bought from Yiyuantang this morning. I'm in urgent need of money now, and I would like to sell them to you for one tael and eight cents. What do you think..." Qin Ziling said as he took out the two .
Liu Xiaoqiang 's injuries were originally bandaged by the doctor, but he had attempted suicide before and fell off the bed, which not only invalidated all the treatment, but also aggravated his injuries. Before Qin Ziling transported him home, he must ask the doctor to fix his injuries again, and also buy him some healing medicine.
"You want a cart and you urgently need money, could it be..." Zheng Xinghan looked at the two blood-benefiting pills in Qin Ziling's hand, his heart trembled slightly, he suddenly looked up and stared at Qin Ziling with disbelief on his face.
Qin Ziling nodded silently.
Although he had guessed something, Zheng Xinghan still couldn't believe it when he saw Qin Ziling nod. After a while, he lowered his voice and said, "Don't you know how serious Liu Xiaoqiang's injuries are? Don't you know what your family situation is like?"
"I know, but Liu Xiaoqiang is my friend, I can't just stand by and watch him die!" Qin Ziling said.
"You..." Zheng Xinghan looked at Qin Ziling, not knowing what to say to him.
"Zi Ling, come here!" At this moment, Zuo Le under the shade of the tree suddenly called Qin Zi Ling.
"Brother, I'll tell you later." Qin Ziling saw Zuo Le calling him, and quickly put away the two blood-benefiting pills, walked quickly to the shade of the tree, bowed slightly and said, "Master!"
Zuo Le did not respond, but looked Qin Ziling up and down for a long time, as if he had just met him.
After a while, Zuo Le retracted his gaze and took out a silver ingot weighing about five taels from the purse hanging on his waist. He said, "Keep the Yixue Pills for yourself. Take this silver."
"Master!" Qin Ziling looked up at Zuo Le with some surprise.
"Go!" Zuo Le waved his hand, then leaned back in the rattan chair with his eyes slightly closed, rocking gently.
Qin Ziling did not leave, but hesitated and asked: "Master, you are knowledgeable, do you know any medicine that can make people with broken bones fully recover?"
Zuo Le slowly opened his eyes after hearing this, looked at Qin Ziling, waved his hand and said, "Don't think too much about it. I do have this ointment, but it's too expensive."
"Just because I can't afford it now doesn't mean I can't afford it in the future. Please let me know the details, owner." Qin Ziling said.
"There is a kind of ointment called Tianji Bone-Repairing Ointment that can make people with broken bones and tendons fully recover, but the injury cannot exceed one year. This Tianji Bone-Repairing Ointment is a unique secret ointment made by the Xiao family, one of the five major families in our Fangqiao City. It is only sold in Anchentang under the name of the Xiao family in the inner city. Each patch costs five hundred taels. I have seen Liu Xiaoqiang's injuries and he needs three patches." Zuo Le said.
"Thank you, Master." Qin Ziling bowed slightly calmly when he heard that, then turned around to greet Zheng Xinghan first, and then went to the backyard to get the cart.
"He is truly a man of loyalty and righteousness. What a pity that reality is always not as good as we wish!" Zuo Le watched Qin Ziling's back disappear at the door leading to the backyard, sighed, and slowly closed his eyes.
The apprentices in the martial arts training ground had already learned the news that Qin Ziling was going to treat and take care of Liu Xiaoqiang. They were all in an uproar and no longer had the heart to practice martial arts. They gathered in groups of three or four and whispered about Qin Ziling.
"No way, Qin Ziling actually wants to treat and take care of Liu Xiaoqiang, he is too stupid!"
"He is really stupid! His family is so poor, and they have almost spent all the money to support his martial arts training in the past few years. The two blood-benefiting pills he took out just now were obviously bought by him for the final sprint, but he actually wanted to exchange them for silver. He has been training for nearly three years, but he has not been able to touch the threshold of the membrane. It is obvious that he does not have much talent for martial arts. But with the help of the two blood-benefiting pills, he can at least have a glimmer of hope to break through before the end of the three-year period. Without the two blood-benefiting pills, he has no hope at all."
"Fortunately, the owner of the museum gave him a silver ingot out of consideration for his feelings, and also gave him a last glimmer of hope."
"If Qin Ziling can really break through to the membrane realm, with his knowledge and the cultivation of the membrane realm, it should be easy for him to find a good job. Otherwise, what's the use of giving him a silver ingot even if the owner of the martial arts hall thinks of him? After leaving the martial arts hall, it would be good enough to make money to support himself and his family. With Liu Xiaoqiang, life will be hard. It will be a problem to have enough food."
“…”
While everyone was talking, Qin Ziling pushed the cart through the martial arts training ground and headed towards the gate.
Everyone immediately stopped talking and watched him leave with complicated looks in their eyes.
No matter how much they disagree with Qin Ziling's approach and think he is stupid, deep down, many people still admire his approach and hope to have such a friend who can help them when they are in trouble.
Qin Ziling left the martial arts training ground and went to Liu Xiaoqiang's house to pack up his things. He then moved Liu Xiaoqiang onto a cart and took him to Yiyuan Hall. He asked a doctor to help treat his injuries and bought some healing medicine.
The silver ingot given by Zuo Le weighed five taels, and half of it was spent in just a few strokes. Qin Ziling couldn't help but sigh secretly that in another world, ordinary people could not afford to get sick, and the same was true in this world.
