The road is right under your feet

Chapter 237 I Want to... Protect Mr.

The child kept his head down, and his mother covered her face and laughed softly, "Ah, sir, the child is still young, what does he know? It's getting late, we mother and daughter won't disturb you, sir, I will take the child home first."

Bai Xing smiled and said "Hmm", then patted the child's shoulder and said, "Go back."

The woman said "Hey hey" a few times, and then she went to pull the child with a smile, saying: "Good boy, it's time to go home~"

The child let the woman pull him. His body moved with the pulling, but his buttocks seemed to be nailed to the stool and could not move at all.

The smile on the woman's face froze a little, "Haha... Look, this child still can't bear to leave you, sir."

Bai Xing was stunned, but didn't think much about it. He just smiled and said, "Little friend, you are still growing, so you should sleep well and grow taller."

After Bai Xing finished speaking, he also hoped to get a reply from the child, so he just cleaned up the things on the table and said to the people behind him: "It's late today, everyone go back and rest, and come back tomorrow, okay?"

When everyone heard that they could still come tomorrow, they dispersed soon.

Bai Xing finished packing and was about to leave, but when he looked up, he saw the child still sitting there, unmoved no matter how his mother coaxed him.

Bai Xing was confused, but he didn't think much about it, thinking that it was just a child being naughty.

Bai Xing turned around and was about to leave, but at this moment, a childish and stuttering voice came from behind him.

"Can I protect you, sir, when I grow up?"

Bai Xing paused, waved his hand and didn't look back.

The child's eyes widened instantly, and he ran towards Bai Xing regardless of anything, but was caught in the woman's arms. He didn't say a word and struggled desperately for a moment, but the person in front of him still didn't look back.

The child suddenly stopped struggling and was silently carried away by the woman.

As Bai Xing walked into the mansion, a beautiful figure walked out from the darkness and bowed slightly, "Sir, please follow me."

Bai Xing nodded and followed the woman, turning several corners and finally arriving at a bright hall.

Wu Qingshuang put down the teacup, looked at Bai Xing who walked in, and said with red lips, "Pack up tonight and leave early tomorrow morning."

Bai Xing was stunned. "So hurried? But I think I should promise everyone that I will continue the consultation tomorrow."

Wu Qingshuang's face didn't look good. Bai Xing didn't understand why. "Isn't it a bad idea to release everyone's pigeons like this?"

Bai Xing walked to a chair nearby and sat down. "Excuse me for being blunt, but most of the people in the city work hard day and night, and have suffered from many chronic diseases. They still need to be properly treated. Otherwise, the weakness of the people in the city will not benefit the Kingdom of Wu."

Wu Qingshuang looked solemn, "We only have one night to rest, so as not to cause any trouble."

She took a deep breath and said, "Well, since you are willing to stay and practice medicine, then stay one more day."

Bai Xing smiled and took out a few pieces of rice paper from his sleeve. On them was a long list of medicinal herbs. There were dozens of portions of one kind of medicinal herb, and the juice of the li tree was measured in tons.

A Bi, the maid who had led Shirahoshi's way earlier, immediately stepped forward and handed over Shirahoshi's paper.

After Wu Qingshuang finished reading, his expression became even uglier. "Yun Xing, although you are a doctor, you should not go too far. Where can I collect so many medicinal herbs for you in one night?"

Bai Xing picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then said, "Your Highness, I am willing to provide free consultations, but there are many people in the city, and the amount of medicinal materials needed is huge. I cannot handle it alone."

"I'll have to trouble you, Princess. Isn't it more important that the people are healthy and strong, and the country is prosperous and the people are safe than anything else?"

Wu Qingshuang almost couldn't catch her breath, "I'm a princess, not a prince, let alone an emperor. How can I raise so much money? Do you think I can use the national treasury?"

"Alas, that's wrong. It was my idea to practice medicine, and I can't let Her Royal Highness cover for me. I'm here to negotiate a deal with Her Royal Highness."

Wu Qingshuang's expression eased for a moment, "What deal?"

Bai Xing smiled slightly and took out another piece of rice paper. "This is the Five Animals Exercise, a kind of health-preserving Qigong, and also a kind of exercise for keeping fit and maintaining health. By imitating the movements of five animals, namely tiger, deer, bear, ape and bird, different parts of the body are exercised to achieve the purpose of exercising the body, strengthening the physique and preventing diseases."

Wu Qingshuang flipped through several pages of paper, his eyes becoming brighter and brighter. The pages contained detailed records of the training methods and images of the key points of the movements.

She had a hunch that as long as they followed the above training, it would only be a matter of time before the people became strong and healthy.

By then, the people will become soldiers, and who will dare to invade her Kingdom of Wu?

This training method will be invaluable.

She suppressed her excitement and said, "Sir, where did you get this? Are there any similar methods? My Wu Kingdom can buy it at a high price."

Bai Xing smiled and shook his head, "That's all. This was created by my ancestors and is extremely precious. I hope that Your Highness can use it well and not let down my ancestors' hard work and legacy."

Bai Xing thought to himself, "If Hua Tuo were still alive, he would be extremely pleased to see that people are getting stronger and healthier because of the method he created."

Even if these people may not be real people.

However, Bai Xing paused. Are the people here really NPCs? Why is everything he sees, hears, feels, and touches so real?

Maybe...they are all living people.

"it is good."

Wu Qingshuang's heroic voice instantly brought Bai Xing back to his senses.

He looked at Wu Qingshuang and saw that she was so happy that her hands were shaking as she held the papers.

She had practiced martial arts since she was young, so she could naturally see the value of this set of movements. Every move she made was full of charm, as if it could mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Perhaps...if she masters this method, she will be able to break through that barrier, sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and step into the gate of immortality!

Wu Qingshuang took a deep breath and said, "At the latest by noon tomorrow, the things you want will be delivered to you."

Bai Xing smiled and said, "I am very grateful."

"Your Highness, it is already late at night. I will take my leave first."

Wu Qingshuang regained his composure and tilted his head slightly, "Abi, take the gentleman down to rest."

"promise."

Ah Bi had a pretty face, and she stood gracefully in a light pink dress. The smile on her face was more genuine: "Sir, this way please."

Bai Xing nodded, stood up, followed him, and said as he got closer, "Thank you."

After another round of twists and turns, a quarter of an hour later, Bai Xing finally arrived at his destination, a place called Jinhuayuan.

Pushing the door open, two attendants happened to come out and stand in front of Bai Xing, "Your humble servant Afu/Your humble servant Alu, welcome sir."

A Bi introduced them, "These are the personal attendants that the princess specially arranged for you. If you need anything in the future, you can just tell them."

Bai Xing nodded. He was very busy tonight, so he would be more relaxed tomorrow if there were two of them, so he did not refuse.
