Shen Roujia set out on the road again, and Liu Ruyi announced to the outside world that her younger sister had fallen ill and was going to seek treatment at the Divine Doctor’s Valley.
This makeshift family began their journey together.
There wasn’t anything particularly interesting along the way, but they did hear many stories and rumors from various places.
Shen Roujia even felt a bit tempted to write a strange tale herself.
But there wasn’t much time to waste, and before they knew it, they had arrived at the Divine Doctor’s Valley.
Before Shen Roujia could get close to the mountain gate, two young medicine boys carrying bamboo baskets walked out and addressed their carriage, “Hold on, are you here seeking medical treatment?”
Liu Ruyi responded with a smile, “Yes, little brother, are you from the Divine Doctor’s Valley? Could you pass on a message for us?” 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
The two medicine boys looked at each other in confusion, “No, our master isn’t here. It’s no use for you to come.”
Shen Roujia didn’t think so. She gently pushed aside the curtain and said, “Little brother, this is our token. Once you see it, you will understand.”
The medicine boy took the token, and immediately became serious, “So it’s a distinguished guest. Please, come this way.”
Shen Roujia smiled faintly, but Liu Ruyi muttered, “What kind of people are they? Even seeing a doctor requires connections.”
Shen Roujia chuckled, “Sister-in-law, just think about it. The Divine Doctor’s Valley is so famous, it’s impossible not to have people passing by.”
“There are many who come seeking treatment, but there’s only one Divine Doctor. He must be extremely busy, so unless it’s a serious or complicated case, they probably aren’t willing to treat anyone.”
Hearing this, Liu Ruyi seemed to understand a bit, but Wei Rui interjected, “What’s the point? The Divine Doctor’s Valley is part of the Martial Alliance now. Just saying a word should be enough, why waste time with all this?”
Shen Roujia didn’t answer. After all, Wei Rui was straightforward, and she didn’t want to argue with him over such matters.
