Chaper 111 Meet with Ni Shang and Know Xiao Douya’s Whereabouts
“One day, if Di Qing does godless things, who will you help?”
Lin Xiaosa was silent, puzzled whether he would help Di Qing. Xu Linghe let out a long sigh. Who could make a choice? After all, Di Qing was Xiaoli’s elder brother.
In the medical clinic on the street of the eastern city, Chang Xi was being kept busy. To cure Xiao Douya, Chang Xi had not closed her eyes for two days. Although she had changed blood for Xiao Douya, he was still in a poor condition. Chang Xi was a bit anxious, and Zhou Yi was guarding there day and night. Outside the room, Ning Hai even prepared a small bed for Zhou Yi. In Ning Hai’s eyes, Zhou Yi was willing to do everything for his “son”. And for Zhou Yi, since he had stayed in the medical clinic for some time, furious qi on him seemed to decrease. In order to cover up the truth, Zhou Yi would clean Xiao Douya in the morning every day. And then, Ning Hai was more disposed toward him, and even brought something to him from the snack shop. However, Ning Hai’s woman was just a worldly person and could not tolerate any man profiting at other people’s expense. So she never treated Zhou Yi well. Zhou Yi had been living in Kunlun for years, so he did not have too much money, and was even in default on Xiao Douya’s treatment fee. Ning Hai’s wife was eager to drive the boy out. But Ning Hai was so headstrong that Ning Hai’s wife had no way to do so. Therefore, Ning Hai’s woman hoped nothing but Zhou Yi would leave there as soon as possible. However, the little boy was still in a coma. Chang Xi was on guard against Zhou Yi, afraid that he would steal the child at midnight. Ning Hai was just curious how diligent Chang Xi was to the little boy, though it was a doctor’s duty to heal the wounded and save the dying. The medical clinic was overcrowded, and Chang Xi was run off her feet there.
On this day, two distinguished guests came to the clinic, and Ning Hai came to greet them from the distance. You Qingcheng walked around and gaped at the sight in the backyard. She just did not come here for a few days, and Magic Doctor Chang had enjoyed the fame through the capital. Ni Shang giggled, thinking that the Master was so accustomed to the comfortable life in the palace that she did not know how hard it was behind the booming business. Ning Hai’s woman grinned from ear to ear when seeing the coming of the noble women, so she bought some expensive snack from a pastry shop in the capital. However, You Qingcheng had seen much about it, and the snack could not compare to the half of that in the palace. You Qingcheng’s little hand opened the puff pastry. The tender flower pastry tasted sweet and greasy, far from that of the palace. As Ning Hai’s wife was chatting with them, she was eating melon seeds. Today, You Qingcheng came to see Magic Doctor Chang because the Chinese medicines that Magic Doctor Chang prescribed her were effective. And her menses came normally. You Qingchen had born a child, so she knew the importance of menses. Besides, the mind tranquilizing medicine that Magic Doctor gave her made her sleep sound at night and not make nightmares any more. Ni Shang was happy for the master. The two passed by Ning Hai’s woman to see Magic Doctor Chang, but after several steps, You Qingcheng’s clothes were pulled by Ning Hai’s wife.
“Do you two noble women’s words count?”
“What do you mean?” You Qingcheng was a bit displeased, thinking that the old woman dared to offend the superiors. But Ning Hai’s wife did not care it too much, and all she wanted was to have a look around the Qi palace.
“Noble woman, as for the things you’ve promised... do you forget?”
The words that You Qingcheng had said casually was taken seriously by the old woman. You Qingcheng passed by the old woman and walked into the inner room. Ni Shang followed the master, thinking that she could get rid of the old woman finally. The old woman did not have eyes. Otherwise, why did the old woman not notice that the Queen had been impatient?
“Is Magic Doctor Chang here?”
You Qingcheng stood outside. Zhou Yi looked at her up and down, while You Qingcheng cast a glance at him and just felt the man was a bit familiar. Then Zhou Yi looked at her again carefully. Something suddenly occurred to him. He remembered that the woman was Di Qing’s concubine and wondered why she came out of the palace. You Qingcheng pushed the door open, followed by Ni Shang. Zhou Yi cared about Xiao Douya, so he squeezed in but was blocked by Changxi. Zhou Yi stood outside with embarrassment, hearing attentively what was going on inside.
Changxi was busy taking Xiao Douya’s pulse, and felt that the pulse was beating strongly. But why did Xiao Douya not wake up? Changxi could not figure it out at that moment. Although Xiao Douya had a celestial body, the sorcery would do harm to him anyway. What was more, naga’s poison was still inside his body. Even if he had been changed blood, the poison could not be removed completely. Changxi changed clean underwear for Xiao Douya and then put a quilt on him well. Although You Qingcheng had a child, it was the palace servants who took care of her child. So when seeing Magic Doctor Chang looking after the little patient carefully, You Qingcheng showed more admiration to her.
“The medicine that you prescribed to me last time works well. And my menses become normal.”
You Qingcheng was very happy. It seemed that Magic Doctor Chang was really worthy of her fame, and she was even able to cure You Qingcheng’s mental illness and You Qingcheng did not make nightmares but slept well since then. Ni Shang was also happy for her master and hoped more that her master could bear a baby for the king as soon as possible. Nowadays, the palace situation was bad for You Qingcheng. This month, Di Qing seldom came to see You Qingcheng, which made her disappointed day after day.
“The master’s situation is not as good as before. Could Magic Doctor prescribe some medicine prone to pregnancy?”
“Madam, how long has it been after your menses?”
“It has been half a month.”
“Here are some herbs that are good for being pregnant. Take them three times a day after your menses. Don’t stop.”
“Magic Doctor, I still have one thing that is hard to tell you. I don’t know how to speak it out.”
You Qingcheng got a red face, since she had not slept in the same room with Di Qing for a long time. How could she be pregnant? Ni Shang was a demon, so she was rather inclusive to the topic about things between husbands and wives in the human world. When seeing the master get ablush, Ni Shang hurried to take the topic. Changxi was an experienced woman, so she certainly understood it. Zhou Yi outside the room extended his neck somehow. Then, Ni Shang condensed her spiritual power and thrust at him. Master was a female and it was inevitable to have some gynecological examination. Why did the guy dare to peep at the master? The more Ni Shang thought, the angrier she got. However, Zhou Yi did not have any other thought at all. All he cared was to keep an eye on the people who wanted to approach Xiao Douya. But unexpectedly, he was spotted and felt embarrassed. You Qingcheng turned on the latch. And Zhou Yi outside blushed with shame, for he had seen something he should not see. Generally speaking, spiritual cultivators had few desires. But he could feel an upsurge of emotion at the sight of that excellent figure. Zhou Yi hurried to recite Mind Clearing Spell. On the other hand, Ni Shang drew Changxi’s attention. Changxi thought the spell that noble woman had used was one of the Teal Hill’s. It was not because Changxi was clever, but because the condensing spiritual power differed from places. Changxi had seen Senior Brother Jiang demonstrating spirit, so she knew it for sure. You Qingcheng was still angry about the person outside.
“You should keep in mind the dos and don’ts for your Master. Don’t eat spicy and cold food.”
Changxi wet her fingers with water, and then watermark appeared on the table. Ni Shang was excited at the clear sight of the watermark. It turned out that Magic Doctor knew her origin and even asked Ni Shang whether she came from the Teal Hill and the Teal Hill’s Jiang Wuyou. Ni Shang answered them one by one. When Ni Shang knew that Wuyou did not die, she could not hold back her tears. If the Spiritual Master was still alive, the Teal Hill had hopes. But Ni Shang could not cry and had to restrain her tears because she could not let You Qingcheng find something unusual. Changxi even told Ni Shang that the child on the bed was Wuyou’s and was badly ill when sent there. Ni Shang understood what Changxi meant. Changxi did not take the child away because she had her own concern. Xiao Douya’s condition was unclear. If he was taken away by Zhou Yi forcibly, Xiao Douya could not receive the treatment and then, it would be too late to regret. Changxi was considerate and thoughtful. Before having a comprehensive plan, she would not take reckless action. Changxi even drew a map about Kunlun for Ni Shang and hoped that Ni Shang could do her a hand. Ni Shang was rather willing to do that, because Wuyou was her sister. Even though they used to have grudges, the events had passed and the times had changed. Ni Shang fixed her mind on the Teal Hill. In order to rebuild the homeland, she would not hesitate even at the cost of her life.
The two noble women left in a hurry, and Ning Hai’s wife even had no time to serve the soup for them. The soup had been cooked at a high price. But Ning Hai had the chance to taste it and was asked to have two big bowls of the soup. Zhou Yi did not dare to go anywhere but just keep guard outside the door. The child was still in a coma. Ning Hai was soft-hearted, showing more sympathy to Zhou Yi.
Ni Shang did not have a loose end in the palace and made a thorough plan for You Qingcheng and then left the palace. Before going to Kunlun, Ni Shang decided to go to a place to inform Madam Hou Qing that Jiang Wuyou was still alive. Within 10 minutes, she arrived at the Princess’ mansion. Ni Shang knocked the door gently, and then the door opened from the inside.
“Is this Princess Li’s mansion?”
The chamberlain looked at her for a while. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and hurried to show Ni Shang into the mansion. It was the second time for Ni Shang to come to the Princess’ residence. Flowers blossomed vividly in the courtyard in March. The dew of the morning could easily wet out the dress. However, Ni Shang was not in the mood to enjoy them, instead, she sped up her steps.
“Someone comes to see the Master. Go to report it.”
The chamberlain ordered because he had found that the coming person was Princess’ lifesaver. He did not dare to neglect. Di Li was rather surprised when seeing Ni Shang.
“Pay my respect to Princess.”
Ni Shang gave a salute, which made Di Li a bit surprised.
“Madam Hou Qing and I are old friends. I have something urgent to see her.”
“Auntie is not there. You can tell her daugher the urgent thing.”
Ni Shang thought she could not delay the proper thing, so she followed Di Li into the backyard. It was silent there.
“Go and report.”
The little maid entered the room hurriedly. Wuyou was rather surprised when seeing Ni Shang.
“Ni Shang.”
“You are......”
Ni Shang was surprised, because the woman was not Han Chiyou, but she did not ask in front of Di Li. Di Li left the courtyard with some excuse but kept glancing at Ni Shang, feeling that she was rather familiar to Di Li herself.
“Elder Sister Ni, I am Wuyou.”
“I am still alive.” Jiang Wuyou walked up and held Ni Shang’s hands.
“Is it really you?”
Ni Shang was extremely excited and held Wuyou tightly in the arms.
“Xiaoyou, you’ve changed your look. I almost can’t recognize you.”
Ni Shang found it hard to adjust Wuyou’s strang look. Wuyou put down her sorrow temporarily and was still happy when seeing Ni Shang. They had not seen each other for years. It was hard to express the deep love between them. Ni Shang cried and laughed. And then, the two cried on each other’s shoulders. Since the Teal Hill had been extinguished, the old friends could meet again and exchanged their love for the hometown. The nostalgia was rather sentimental! Ni Shang almost forgot her proper business.
“I came here for an important matter. Xiaoyou, please calm down first.”
“What’s the matter?”
“Your son is named Xiao Douya?”
“Yes.” Wuyou’s heart suspended and seemed to be torn off. She feared that she could not bear the next words, but she had to face them.
“Today, I accompanied You Qingcheng to see doctors in the eastern city and came across Magic Doctor Chang. During the treatment, Magic Doctor Chang tried to ask where I came from and whether I knew you. She informed me that the child on the bed was your son and said that you were in Kunlun. Then, she drew a map for me.”
Ni Shang took the map out. However, Wuyou totally had no mood to see the map, and all she thought was only her son.
“Xiao Douya is ill... seriously ill.”
“What are you talking about?” Wuyou’s face turned pale, and she grabbed Ni Shang’s clothes immediately.
“Magic Doctor Chang said it was naga’s poison. Xiaoyou, Ming Zhu not only did harm to you... but also your child.”
Wuyou had a swoon, and her body fell into the arms. Xu Linghe held her tightly. The woman was frantic with grief. But Xu Linghe could do nothing for her.
“Linghe, the naga’s poison on our son is my fault.”
Ni Shang recognized Xu Linghe who had led a humble life for survival. But now, she had no prejudice to him. Wuyou struggled to stand up because her child was still suffering and she wanted to save him.
The three people went out of the room. Lin Xiaosa came to them. Xu Linghe told him that Xiao Douya had been taken away, but held Di Qing’s name back. Because in Di Li’s opinion, Di Qing was still her good elder brother.
“Xiaoyou will come with me to save Xiao Douya. Xiaosa will help to find my mother-in-law. The robbers who took her away is for the Heavenly Book. They will not hurt my mother-in-law.”
The group of people came out of the courtyard. Two of them followed Ni Shang to the eastern city. When arriving at the medical clinic, they found it was a total mess there. The whole medical clinic collapsed, and the citizens there surrounded and watched the messy scene. No one could expect that the bustling street would turn into ruins in a blink. Ni Shang stared at the ruins openmouthed. Again, Xiao Douya disappeared under the eyes.
