[Comprehensive] I am the Healing Department

"Woo..." Xia Qing pulled the reins, and the horse stopped.At this time, the sky has darkened, and the last ray of orange-red light at dusk has gradually faded away, and the entire empty sky looks dull and depressing.It is already early autumn. Although the weather has not completely turned cold, the unique loneliness and loneliness in autumn have spread a little bit.

She and Dongfang Bubai set off from Heimuya in the morning and rode without falling for a day, and they had just reached the border of Hebei Province at this time.Perhaps because this is where the two provinces meet, this plain looks a bit desolate, and there are no towns or villages for dozens of miles nearby.Xia Qing has the cheat of the plot, but there is no geographical introduction in the plot, her eyes are so dark that she can't tell the difference between south, east and north...

"Is there a place to stay near here? It's getting late, we might as well rest overnight and start tomorrow." Xia Qing turned his head to look at Dongfang Bubai, and asked with a slightly lowered tone and a discussion tone.In the past month, she and Dongfang Bubai have become quite familiar. Although the favorability has not increased, the two of them are obviously very familiar with each other. At least the tense atmosphere before has not appeared between them for a long time. .

Dongfang Bubai, who was also holding the rein and controlling the horse to stop, stopped to look into the distance, lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then said uncertainly: "I remember that there is an inn near here for passers-by to rest. , but I haven’t rested here for five or six years, and I’m not sure if the inn is still there.”

Xia Qing pursed his lips and looked around, but the surroundings were all gray. On the desolate plain, there were only knee-high weeds floating in the wind, and occasionally seeing a few crooked small trees was also nourishing. Unhealthy withered to the extreme.The sky was getting darker and darker, and after the last light sank to the horizon, the whole land was shrouded in a thin black curtain.

Although Dongfang Bubai's words are a little unreliable, but now there is really no choice, Xia Qing shrugged helplessly, and sighed: "Let's look for it together. It would be best if we can find the inn. If you can’t find it, just find a shelter from the wind and you’ll be fine overnight.”

Dongfang Bubai nodded, although he had lived a lot of days when he was pampered and always had someone to wait on him, but he was not someone who couldn't bear hardships.He looked around for a while, then waved his whip and took the lead in riding his horse in one direction.

Xia Qing looked up at the somewhat gloomy sky, and shook the horse's ass with the whip, and quickly followed Dongfang Bubai's pace.It is said that she can learn to ride a horse, it is really... It is tears to say it, Xia Qing is a modern person, or a modern person who is struggling below the well-off level, how can she have the leisure and elegance to ride a horse, let alone ride, she can't even see her. never seen it!In the world of Wulin Outer History, she was weak when she was Zhu Qiqi, and she always traveled in sedan chairs, and never rode a horse. In the world of Condor Heroes, she had eagles, and she never rode a horse.

It wasn't until in this world that Xia Qing bit the bullet to learn... Although he hadn't learned it for a long time, Xia Qing exchanged points for horse riding skills in a fit of anger before he could ride... But at least he knew it o(╯ □╰) o

Far away, in the darkness, Xia Qing saw a dim yellow light with warmth appearing in front of him, and there were faint sounds of drinking and even cursing in the wind. It seems that the dilapidated small bungalow with only a few rooms in front is what Dongfang Bubai said, and it is an inn specially opened for passers-by to rest in this desolate and remote place.

It's just that it's an inn, but it's actually a little bit better than a grass shed full of herbal tea on the side of the road!

This is Xia Qing's speechless complaints when he approached the inn... ╮(╯▽╰)╭

As soon as the horse was parked at the door of the inn, a young man in a patched gray cloth shirt rushed over to meet him. He was wearing a dirty gray cap, and there was a piece of dirt on his shoulder. The towels, it seems to be the guy or waiter of this inn.

"The guest officer wants to stay in the inn? Please come inside, please come inside, and the younger one will lead the horses to feed some fodder for the two of you." The guy greeted enthusiastically, as if he was about to take the reins from Xia Qing and Dongfang Bubai .

Xia Qing smiled slightly, handed over the reins, and said in a warm voice: "It's troublesome, the horse has been running for a day, and feed more fodder and water." While talking, she handed over a piece of silver the size of her little finger, and looked Yue Mo also has the appearance of a penny.

"No trouble, no trouble!" The guy smiled brightly, but the silver in Xia Qing's hand quickly took over the reins from the two of them, and led the two extremely tall horses to Ma Peng who was on the side.

Dongfang Bubai stared coldly for a while, then walked into the dimly lit lobby with Xia Qing.He was dressed in exquisite and gorgeous red clothes, and even a day's journey never made him feel embarrassed, but what Xia Qing was wearing was a simple white exercise uniform, not the white wide-sleeved long skirt that he usually wears.Both of them had good looks, and they were dressed neatly at this time. When they walked into this dirty inn, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.In the inn, the rude big men who were drinking and swearing all stared at the two of them.

Dongfang Bubai found an empty table with a calm expression, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped it before sitting down slowly and gracefully.Xia Qing saw his eyes sinking slightly, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.It seems that Dongfang Bubai, who has cultivated the Sunflower Collection, has gradually evolved from a masculine heroic spirit to a neutral one, and even a daughter's heart spirit, before he himself realized it.

After sitting down, Dongfang Bubai glanced around the scene in the inn, and said to the old and grey-haired boss at the counter: "Bring some food, it doesn't need to be delicate, but it must be clean! Warm me up." A jug of wine and two appetizers."

The boss was intimidated by Dongfang Bubai's aura, so he hurriedly responded and got ready.

Xia Qing smiled slightly, untied the water bag from his waist and put it on the table, then raised his head and said to Dongfang Bubai: "What good wine can there be here? It's nothing more than burning knives and other rough wine, I'm afraid you can't drink it I'm used to it."

"Burning knives are strong wine, and it's just right to drink at this time." Dongfang Bubai picked up the teapot on the table, washed the cup before pouring it out, and said calmly while holding the teacup.He lowered his eyes, a mysterious light flashed across his eyes, and smiled softly, "This place is very different from when I came here five years ago."

Xia Qing was silent, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "I just hope they won't be too stupid!"

Dongfang Bubai sneered, put the teacup in his hand on the table casually, and said with a smile: "There are still a lot of stupid people in this world. It seems that when we come back from Huashan, there are many things to do, here is still It's a little messy, why is it also under the jurisdiction of Heimuya!"

Xia Qing was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.

The inn itself is located in a remote location, so it is naturally not as luxurious as the inns in towns. There is no room here at all, and the one that was allocated to Xia Qing and Dongfang Bubai in the end was just a relatively clean small room.The bed in the room was very narrow, and the quilt on it was a little yellow, not thin but just looked a little dirty.Except for a narrow bed, there is only a small couch on the side and a shelf for the washbasin. There is not even a cabinet, let alone a table and chairs.

What's more, Xia Qing and Dongfang Bubai had to live together in such a dilapidated house, otherwise one of them would be reduced to sleeping on the floor with the sloppy and heroic quacks outside.After glancing at the furnishings in the room, Xia Qing sighed, put the package on his shoulders on the bed, and pulled out a thin cloak from it.Spreading the cloak on the bed, Xia Qing stretched and lay down on it, and then felt that the sore muscles all over his body from riding a horse all day were relieved.

Looking up, Dongfang Bubai was already sitting on the small slum with leisure, and he didn't seem to be tired, it seemed that he was doing his job with ease.

Xia Qing didn't dislike living in the same room with Dongfang Bubai. After all, Dongfang Bubai was no longer a real man. In Xia Qing's heart, he still had a little admiration and pity for Dongfang Bubai who imposed the castration on him. of.

"I'm going to wrong the leader to rest on the small bed for the whole night." Xia Qing said, but he didn't mean to move the position to Dongfang Bubai.

Dongfang Bubai curled his lips and said with a very indifferent smile: "You may not be able to sleep well. I have said that there are still more stupid people in this world."

Xia Qing lowered his eyes, thinking of the food and drinks on the shopkeeper just now, he couldn't help laughing, but with some inexplicable helplessness and sigh: "You are right, there are never many people in this world who are blinded by profit. But I I never imagined that our well-known Eastern leader would one day be regarded as a boudoir daughter disguised as a man." With Xia Qing and Dongfang Bubai's internal strength, how could those people listen to the malicious words hidden in the dark? not see?

Dongfang Bubai didn't do anything, it was just because he was too lazy to pay attention.But once they really do something, he definitely doesn't mind crushing them to death.Xia Qing had some pity for those people, but he also knew that they did all of this themselves, no wonder others.

What's more, with her relationship with Dongfang Bubai, even if she persuaded her, Dongfang Bubai might not listen, so why bother to blame her!

Smiling wryly, Xia Qing sighed in her heart...she was indeed a selfish person.

In the middle of the night when the moon was hanging high in the sky, Xia Qing lay on the narrow bed covered with a thin cloak, listening to the rustling sound from outside the window, couldn't help sighing inwardly.The somewhat dilapidated window was gently pushed open from the outside, and a trace of smoke with a tainted aroma was blown in.

Xia Qing didn't pay attention to the person who put in the drug, because Dongfang Bubai had already opened his eyes, and the silver needle in his hand, which was as thin as a cow's hair, still shone with a icy cold light in the dark, and the silver needle shot out lightly, The people fell to the ground and died silently.

Dongfang Bubai stood up, gently opened the door and walked out.Xia Qing didn't know what he did, all he knew was that when he came back, he had a faint smell of blood on his body, although it was faint, it lingered for a long time.

Seven

The weather on the second day was not clear. The sun was covered by large groups of white clouds, and there was no orange sun shining. The autumn morning looked a little cold.Because it is early autumn, a thin layer of fog has formed, which does not obscure people's sight, but the white mist always gives people a sense of uncertainty.

There was no sun, and it was foggy again. Although the sky was not dark, it was always a bit oppressive and cold that penetrated into the bones.Xia Qing pushed open the door and walked out of the room with light steps, barely making a sound.Taking a deep breath of the pleasant cold mist in the morning, Xia Qing closed his eyes and sighed softly in his heart.There were more than [-] people in this inn last night, it was very lively, but now... I am afraid that there is no one else except her, Dongfang Bubai and the people from the Sun Moon God Sect who followed secretly.

She had always known that Dongfang Bubai secretly sent people to follow them, and with Dongfang Bubai's cautious character, she would not trust others easily.Not to mention that Xia Qingshang had planted a weird and unpredictable hidden weapon like the Life and Death Talisman in his body.What's more, with Dongfang Bubai's current temperament of Aijie, he shouldn't have to deal with the bodies of those people who were killed by him yesterday, right?

"Let's go." At this time, Dongfang Bubai had already walked over leading two horses. He had already gone out when Xia Qing went out. , just said flatly, "This small shop is remote, and there is nothing to greet customers. We will not stay here, and hurry to Huashan as soon as possible."

Hebei is bordered by Shanxi and Henan, and Shanxi and Henan are also bordered by Shaanxi Province, and Huashan is located in Shaanxi Province. This time, Xia Qing and Dongfang Bubai went down the mountain from Heimuya to Huashan School, intending to detour from Shanxi Province to Huashan.After Hebei, there is Shanxi, and Mount Hengshan, one of the Five Sacred Mountains, is located in Shanxi.It's just that the Hengshan faction is at the bottom of the Five Sacred Mountains, let alone Dongfang Bubai and Xia Qing.

Compared with Hebei, which has been faintly prosperous after being rectified by Xia Qing, Shanxi will appear to be in decline.When Xia Qing rode his horse on the official road, he could always see some ragged-clad ordinary people dragging their children and their daughters to Hebei along the way.Seeing such a scene, Xia Qing felt a little proud of the changes in Hebei, but also a little sour--in this land, since ancient times, whether it is the change of the dynasty or the turmoil in the world, it is the people at the bottom who suffer the most. .

Thousands of lands are desolate, people are cut off, and children are eaten. These words sound terrifying, but they are not exaggerated words based on rumors, but tragic things that have actually happened on this land.The land of the Central Plains has a history of nearly 500 years in the world of Swordsman, and in these 500 years, how many innocent people have died due to wars, droughts, floods, locust plagues, famine, plagues and earthquakes. For many years, the average life expectancy of ordinary people was only about 40 years old.

Dongfang Bubai's right hand holding the rein moved slightly, and he turned his head to look at Mu Qingran, who was staring blankly at the official road casually dressed in ragged clothes, yellow and emaciated victims who were walking close to the official road with great difficulty. Among the victims, there were several children about seven or eight years old, all dressed in rags and with dark yellow faces, only a pair of big eyes were bright and abnormal, shining with a clear light of hope.

Pursing his lips, Dongfang Bubai suddenly felt a faint sourness in his heart. He still remembered... when he was not Dongfang Bubai, or Dongfang Bai, whose family was ruined and reduced to a beggar, it was the same, but his His eyes were not so clear.After his family members were killed, he had long since lost his clean mind and hopeful eyes.

"Seeing them is like seeing me back then." Xia Qing suddenly spoke in a very soft voice, her expression became lonely and dimmed, and Dongfang Bubai's indistinct look flickered in her eyes.

But Dongfang Bubai inexplicably understood the feelings in her heart at this moment.Because they are all the same, they have the same experience, they have both been reduced from the pride of heaven to beggars with their families ruined, and they also bear the hatred and pain silently waiting for the day of revenge.

At this moment, Dongfang Bubai suddenly felt that Mu Qingran and him were so similar.

[Congratulations to the host for gaining a favorability score of 15, and the current favorability score is 40. 】

[Congratulations to the host for successfully increasing the target's happiness value by 10 points, and the current happiness value is 20. 】

"There are quite a few people who follow you secretly. I want to borrow them to do something." When they arrived in a small town in Shanxi, Xia Qing and Dongfang Bubai found a restaurant to rest.While waiting for the food to be served, Xia Qing, who looked much better, said coldly to Dongfang Bubai who was resting with his eyes closed.

Slowly opened his eyes, his slender eyelashes trembled slightly, Dongfang Bubai's exquisite facial features and indisputable face had a meaningful expression, he glanced at Xia Qing with a half-smile: "Oh? What's the matter?"

"I want every branch of the Sun Moon God Sect to spare some people to adopt orphans whose parents have both died."

Dongfang Bubai hooked his lips, but the expression on his face that seemed to be a smile became more serious. An unknown stream of light flashed across his raised phoenix eyes, and he looked at Xia Qing with great interest, and said with a soft smile: "You Do you know how much burden the Sun Moon God Church will have if this order is issued? Every year in the Central Plains, countless people lose their parents and relatives and become orphans. You will also be dragged down!"

Xia Qing met Dongfang Bubai's eyes calmly and fearlessly, and stared at Dongfang Bubai expressionlessly for a while, Xia Qing suddenly raised the corners of her lips and smiled happily: "Dongfang Bai, are you actually You want to do the same, right? I heard before that the Sun Moon God Sect has a youth hall, which is dedicated to taking in orphans as a preparatory camp for Sun Moon God Sect disciples."

Xia Qing didn't call Dongfang Bubai by his current name, nor did he call him the leader, but called this name that he had buried deeply for a long time.

"We are the same, and we have the same empathy for those people—the children who lost their parents. Because, we have also experienced those days. As for the burden...don't underestimate them, even if they are young, they are not It's useless at all. What's more, the Sun Moon God Sect really needs a stable source of congregants, and there are also people with excellent qualifications among them."

After a long silence, Dongfang Bubai let out a long sigh of relief.He looked at Xia Qing carefully for a few times with a serious expression, and then sighed with a complicated expression on his face: "Sometimes, I really want to know what kind of person you are. Mu Qingran, you are better than me." After a pause He continued, "The youth hall in the Sun Moon God Church was established when I was the deputy leader. At that time, I wanted to help those who had the same fate as me, but as time passed, I became the leader. But I gradually forgot my original determination.”

"You are stronger and firmer than me." If I had met you like this earlier, maybe many things would have been different.Dongfang Bubai slightly lowered his eyes, thinking in his heart.

[Congratulations to the host for gaining a favorability score of 5, and the current favorability score is 45. 】

[Congratulations to the host for successfully increasing the target's happiness value by 10 points, and the current happiness value is 30. 】

Smiling and bending his eyes, Xia Qing looked at Dongfang Bubai sincerely and gratefully for the first time, with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, calm and soft: "Thank you."

Even though Dongfang Bubai has a surly temperament and a cruel heart, he is really not a complete villain.Xia Qing faintly understood at this moment that in this so-called healing center she was in, all the tasks she undertook and all the characters who needed to be captured must have their reasons, and there was no one to target, even if it was a villain boss. , There must also be a shining point of humanity in the heart.

Xia Qing's mission is to heal them, but in fact, in Xia Qing's opinion, it is to discover the shining points of their humanity, and let them who have been gradually lost regain the happiness and beauty in their lives .

Everyone has their own happiness and future, but some people get lost in the rough and difficult life, and the existence of the healing center is to help them get back on track and regain the hope and beauty in their lives.

Rather than saying that Xia Qing cured them, it is better to say that they found the lighthouse on the road of life, illuminated their way forward, found their direction, and finally healed themselves.

Natsume Takashi, Sesshomaru, Bai Feifei, Little Tom, Yang Guo, Xuan Xiao, Akutsu, and even Dongfang Bubai are all like this.

After receiving the order from Dongfang Bubai, the team leader of the secret guards who secretly followed Dongfang Bubai and Xia Qing was silent for a while, and there was a trace of indescribable emotion on his ordinary face, as if touched. It looks like joy but also faintly carries the nostalgia of loneliness and compassion.He was silent for a moment, and said in a hoarse voice: "Follow the order of the leader! We must send this order to all sub-helms in the shortest possible time."

One of the Anbu who followed was a little hesitant, and Na Na asked, "Should we not follow the leader?"

The team leader shook his head lightly: "The Hierarch's miraculous powers are world-class, how can Xiao Xiao's people win the Hierarch! And Lord Zuo's strength is just as unpredictable, it doesn't matter whether we follow or not. Since the leader and Lord Zuo have decided to issue this order, and Let us implement it as soon as possible, we must obey orders and work hard to complete the tasks assigned by the leader!"

All the dark guards nodded in convincing agreement.Seeing this, the team leader lowered his head slightly, and let out a breath of relaxation quietly.In fact, he also had his own selfish intentions in doing so. He... was the person selected by the youth hall to be the hidden guard of the sect leader. He was very grateful to Dongfang Bubai who saved him.

And now the orders issued by the leader and Zuo Hufa made him even more touched and grateful.Letting out a breath slowly, the team leader put aside the complicated thoughts in his mind, and started to complete the task assigned by Dongfang Bubai. ?
