Infinity from Pirates

Drum Island is an island covered with snow all year round, so it is also known as Winter Island. Of course, in addition, it also has other names such as Drum Kingdom and Doctor’s Island.

Especially the last name is famous all over the world, which once made the island prosperous with an endless stream of doctors and patients.

But it all came to an end a few years ago.

Valpo, the current king of the Drum Kingdom, is an autocratic, cruel, and idiotic king. A few years ago, he had a whim and ordered the 20 people with the best medical skills in the kingdom to be recruited to form the "Doctor 20". All doctors practicing medicine outside the country are illegal and will be permanently deported if caught.

After this drastic reform, the magnetic drum kingdom successfully declined rapidly within two years, from a famous medical power to a small island that no one cared about, which made people sigh.

Faced with this situation, King Valpo not only failed to reflect on the problems with his policies, but did not realize the seriousness of the problem at all. Instead, due to the economic recession, he continued to make mistakes and increased the consultation fee of 20 doctors to a level that was beyond the reach of a commoner. The height suddenly aroused public anger and almost triggered civil strife in the kingdom.

Fortunately, one of Valpo's aides, the captain of the Kingdom Guard named Dalton, had huge popularity and was able to work around it. This was able to suppress the riots and prevent the kingdom from continuing to internally consume its strength.

After all, in addition to the 20 doctors on the island, there is actually only one doctor, Dr. Kuleha, an age-obsessed doctor with a hot figure but an old woman's face and extremely superb medical skills.

Although this doctor, who is said to be a witch, charges high fees and often charges half of the patient's property, compared with the amount of consultation fee set by Valpo, ordinary people are naturally willing to choose the former if they have the choice, and this is also The fundamental reason why Dalton was able to quell the riots.

The days passed slowly in such a difficult situation. The resigned civilians gradually accepted the status quo and lived in this country in a difficult and numb way.

Until a pirate who washed his hands in a golden basin returned here and looked at the numb people. The pirate realized that this country was suffering from a chronic disease that was slowly eroding people's hearts. One day, the entire country would suffer from this. perish.

So the pirate came up with the idea of ​​​​teaching himself medical skills to save the kingdom. His idea was very strange. Based on his own experience of being terminally ill but being miraculously cured by witnessing the blooming of cherry blossoms, he believed that as long as he replicated the miraculous cherry blossoms, he could Cure terminal illnesses in people’s hearts.

This pirate's name is Siruluk. Although he is a quack doctor, he sincerely likes others to call him - Dr. Siruluk.

Unfortunately, God did not wish.

For some reason, Shiruluk ate highly poisonous mushrooms and knew that his time was running out. He could not wait until the cherry blossoms bloomed, so he had to adopt simpler and cruder methods to try to save the country.

So he blew himself up in front of the king's castle, but the scene he hoped for didn't happen as expected.

Of course, his sacrifice was not in vain. At least one person was shocked and moved by his actions and spirit, and decided to stand up against Valpo's tyranny. This person was Dalton, the captain of the Kingdom Guard, who was loved by the common people.

What's even more regrettable is that Dalton's resistance was easily suppressed and he was eventually imprisoned and imprisoned.

It was at this time of turmoil in the magnetic drum kingdom that a warship docked and came to seek medical treatment.

……

"Huh~" Binzi breathed hot air into the palm of his hand. Finally feeling a trace of warmth, he shrank his body, his teeth chattered and said: "Strange, strange, sir, your body is strong and you are not afraid of the cold. Forget it, why? Because you don’t seem to be too cold, you look like...?”

Shen Yan, who was walking at the front and stepped out of the snow pit with one foot and one foot, looked back at Binzi, whose limbs were as slender as bamboo poles, and then at Ain, who was still wearing a cloak and could not hide his slim figure, holding back a smile. complained:

"You have the nerve to ask why it's not cold. Look at your bare arms and legs. Can they compare with Ain?"

Hearing Shen Yan mentioning himself, especially what he said about his figure, Ai Yin, who was walking quietly, turned slightly red. He didn't know whether he should answer the conversation at this time, so he hesitated for a moment and continued on his way without saying a word.

Binz looked down at his limbs, his face collapsed, and he whispered softly without being able to refute: "But this is innate, and I don't want to..."

With Shen Yan's sharp ears, he naturally heard Binz's muttering. Without raising his head, he said angrily: "If you don't say anything else, look back at the sailors. Which one of them is like you? I told you to learn how to repay life as soon as possible. If you don't listen, Now you can only endure it for now, wait until you are somewhere with people, and see if you can buy a set of winter clothes..."

"Oh... that's the only way to go."

Looking back at the sailors who were also wearing thin clothes, carrying the patients and following silently behind them, Binz sighed. He knew that as a commander, he could not let go of the chain at this time. He thought so, and then the team fell into silence again.

Driving in the snow is extremely time-consuming and physically demanding, so much so that no one knows how far they have gone.

But what was terrible was that the clothes of the sailors who trudged hard were soaked with sweat, and soon became as hard as ice in the biting cold wind, which continued to lower the body temperature of the sailors.

Ok?

Shen Yan, who had been using his sense of sight to detect human traces, sensed something. He quickened his pace and crossed the snow hills in front, and a small town with smoke rising from cooking fires jumped into his sight.

"Attention, there is a small town half a kilometer ahead. Please hold on, I think everyone will be able to change into warm winter clothes soon!"

Everyone was refreshed and quickly quickened their pace.

The approach of so many unfamiliar faces to the town naturally attracted the attention of the townspeople, but when they saw the iconic navy system, no one was afraid, and they all walked out of the house to check the situation.

"Excuse me, Lord Marine, what can I do?"

A middle-aged man saw a group of people approaching and bravely asked.

Shen Yan stopped and motioned for the people to turn slightly sideways, revealing several patients being carried on stretchers behind him. After showing the townspeople a clear view, Shen Yan stepped forward and explained:

"One of our companions got sick, and he happened to be very close to a well-known medical power, so he came to seek medical treatment."

The townspeople understood what was going on when they saw the patient, but when they heard Shen Yan mentioning the great medical country, they all looked helpless.

"Sir, you don't know something. The medical power has long been a thing of the past..."

"Huh? Did something happen?"

"It's a long story. Adults, it's better to go inside and warm yourself up. We'll tell you the details."

Shen Yan nodded slightly and was about to follow the townspeople into the house. Then he remembered what he said before and looked at the townspeople: "The incident happened suddenly. We also decided to come for medical treatment on the spur of the moment. We didn't prepare winter clothes. I wonder if you can tell everyone. If the townspeople who have extra winter clothes at home are willing, we can pay for them."

The middle-aged man nodded, ushered a few people into the house, and gave a few instructions in his wife's ear. The latter nodded and quickly put on clothes and went out, informing Shen Yan's request from door to door.

When they heard that there was money to be made, the townspeople enthusiastically "divided up" the sailors and brought them into their houses. They served hot tea and food, and held thick coats. Those who didn't know it thought that everyone here was rich. They are very hospitable people.

"...Well, since Valpo's decree came down, doctors in our country have been expelled and expelled. There are almost no doctors left among the people..."

Shen Yan roughly remembered some of the conditions on Cigu Island, so it was not surprising to hear what the townspeople said.

But this was not the case for Ain and Binzi. They listened from beginning to end, and they were both indignant that a good country was almost collapsed due to the idiot king, and they also lamented the difficult situation of the common people. They both had complicated expressions.

"So, we either need to find that Dr. Kureha, or we go to the King's Castle to find 20 doctors?"

Hearing Shen Yan's inquiry, the middle-aged man nodded and shook his head, explaining: "Dr. Kuleha's whereabouts are a mystery. She only shows up a few days a month to treat patients in various small towns... According to my estimation, The next time we come here will take at least about a week. If your patients can wait, then it doesn’t matter..."

Hearing this, Ain and Binz no longer cared about sympathizing with the citizens of the Drum Kingdom. On the way here, the military medical officer explained clearly that the Caschia fever, also known as 5th-day disease, suffered by several sailors meant that If not treated in time, the patient would die within five days due to various inflammations caused by persistent high fever. However, it took more than two days for them to rush over and they could not wait for the private doctor.

"It seems that we still have to visit the king of your country. I wonder if I can ask you to lead the way. We can pay you..."

After understanding the basic situation, Shen Yan, who knew that time was tight, stood up and said.

"Ah... now?" The middle-aged man was startled. Seeing Shen Yan's confirmation, he also stood up and nodded: "No problem, please wait a moment. I will change my clothes and come right away."

After a while, a group of people walked out of the house. Binz, who put on warm winter clothes, issued a summons order. The sailors who also put on winter clothes quickly gathered. After Ain paid for the clothes from door to door, everyone followed the guide and set off. Go to the castle where the king is.
