Someone's looking for me?
Chen Changming froze, instinctively thinking of Senior Bi Cang.
Could Senior Bi Cang have found a lead on her true body?
His heart tightened, and he hurried to the entrance of the Vermilion Bird Barracks.
An unfamiliar man stood outside the entrance, repeatedly peering inside.
Who is this man?
Chen Changming was puzzled, and a little disappointed.
The visitor was not Senior Bi Cang. He did not recognize this man at all.
"Are you Divine Physician Ning?"
As soon as he saw Chen Changming approach the entrance, the stranger cupped his fists and asked politely.
"I wouldn't call myself a divine physician. My name is Ning Jin, and I currently serve in the Vermilion Bird Guard."
Chen Changming cupped his fists as well.
He was beginning to catch on-could this stranger be looking for him to treat an injury?
Otherwise, he would not have called him "Divine Physician Ning."
"Mr. Ning, a friend of mine is bedridden with a serious illness. I'd like to ask you to work your healing wonders."
The stranger said earnestly, "As for payment, I'll offer ten times your rate in the barracks. What do you think?"
Ten times?
Chen Changming's interest stirred. He charged two hundred spirit jades to treat a severely injured person. Ten times that would be two thousand spirit jades.
This is a worthwhile deal!
Chen Changming smiled inwardly, but his face remained expressionless as he asked calmly, "Fellow Daoist, two thousand spirit jades can buy some fine pills. Why must you seek me out?"
"Pills haven't helped much. That's why I came to ask Divine Physician Ning to intervene."
The man sighed softly.
With a Sword Talisman on him, Chen Changming had no fear of petty villains, so he asked openly, "Very well. Where is the patient?"
