AST 1922 - Direction, Imperial Physician, Miraculous Physician (2/2)
“Splendid. This is the first time I ever tasted such a good quality wine. It completely toppled over the knowledge which I used to have about wine. Brother Qing, are you the one who brewed this wine?” After quite a while, Lin Zhennan came back to his senses and asked.
“I made them when I am free. Feel free to taste the food. You can’t find them anywhere else.” Qing Shui refilled Lin Zhennan’s wine cup as he spoke.
Lin Zhennan politely took up the chopsticks and proceeded to put the food, with names that even he wasn’t familiar of, into his mouth. Before this, merely the smell of it had already given him a strong urge to taste the food. He eventually learned some new things when he finally got to eat the food. In any case, Lin Zhennan was still considered to be just an ordinary man. Other than strength, the next thing which he pursued would be sex and food. Actually, considering that these were probably what 99% of men sought for, saying this was not really any much different than talking nonsense.
Though Lin Zhennan hadn’t necessarily tasted all the existing delicious food across the continent, he should still have tried out the food around the Great Confucian Empire or in areas a little further away from there. However, he only learned today that food of this caliber actually existed across the continent. Only the wine here was fit to be called true wine.
When it came to gathering information, Lin Zhennan could still be considered to be quite skillful at it. As of now, he not only knew that Qing Shui possessed formidable strength and medical expertise. He seemed to be very proficient even in cooking. Despite that, the skills mentioned before were already more than enough to make him a man above men.
Prior to this, he was still a bit suspicious of Qing Shui. After all, to him, Qing Shui was still very young. It could already be considered quite decent to be proficient in an aspect of things. But it was only now, did he learn that he was a bit arrogant before and that he had underestimated the genius in front of him.
“Brother Qing, is there anything which I can help you with?” Lin Zhennan asked Qing Shui. He knew that there definitely must be something for Qing Shui to invite him in,
After enjoying the dinner, Lin Zhennan’s impression towards Qing Shui completely changed. Deep down, he told himself that he must build a good relationship with this young man. A golden carp would never stay in a pond forever. The young man currently in front of him was precisely the golden carp he meant.
“Brother Lin, you are a smart man, so let me be straightforward. I am sure you have also managed to see through that I have been pushed down into the mess where I am in right now. My family and my friend’s lives have all been threatened. Hence, it is of utmost importance for me to solve the current issue, but as of now, I truly have no intention to side with any clans. Brother Lin, do you understand what I mean?” Qing Shui smiled and said.
“I do, but Brother Qing, how do you hope for the problem to be solved?” Lin Zhennan asked. He seemed a bit distracted.
“Though I have only interacted once with the people from both the Little Prince and the Fox-Wolf Immortal Master respectively. By making comparisons based on those encounters, I feel that the people on the Little Prince’s side are more appropriate.”
Since Lin Zhennan dared to ask him such a question, it meant that he was quite confident with himself. It was likely that he only managed to get a grasp on what was going on in Qing Shui’s mind. Qing Shui had faith in Lin Clan’s strength, but he didn’t want to put too much hope on it. Actually, he only wanted some time to make sure that the people around him could get stronger or alternatively, he could get some people to look after them.
“To be honest, it is impossible to defeat the Fox-Wolf Immortal Master without any sacrifices. Unless you have a soft spot towards one of them, it will be easier to face off against him in a two against one fight. But this is also very risky. Other than that, it is also very dangerous to cut weeds without taking out its root. Once some of the expert warriors from the opposing side managed to escape, we won’t be able to live at peace. We might even end up having to pay a huge price for it.” At this moment, Lin Zhennan also seemed very serious.
Qing Shui understood what he meant. It was perfectly normal for such kind of thing to happen. Also because of this, the Imperial Cuisine Hall was only able to be under the care of the people from the Great Confucian Empire. Hence, for a moment, Qing Shui became silent.
After a moment of thought, Qing Shui smiled, “I understand now. Brother Lin, we are friends. In the future, it will be better if we interact more with each other. If you need any help, feel free to tell me about it.”
For the time being, Qing Shui wanted to gain benefits for himself. With his ability, there was really no need for him to take any sides. In a way, he could be described as a unique physician. Being in the world, who could possibly make sure that they would live their life without having to face any illnesses or catastrophic events? As long as they were aware of what he was capable of, they would have been more eager to make friends with him rather than offend him.
Certainly, it was also possible for physicians to offend someone. However, a powerful physician would rarely have to do anything to their enemies. There would be a lot of people willing to deal with them in his place.
At this moment, it seemed as though Qing Shui had managed to find a direction for himself.
An imperial physician, miraculous physician?
