After thinking for a while, Yu Jin felt that it was more likely that Dain was a snake, because Yu Jin had also killed snakes before, and without a soft hand.
Given his calm state of mind when he slaughtered the Abyssal Great Serpent, Yu Jin made this judgment.
Seeing that Yu Jin and Dain were no longer whispering, Baizhu and Changsheng also stopped their conversation.
Looking at the curious gazes from the surrounding Fatui members, Baizhu shouted into the Bubu Pharmacy, "A Gui, come out and see patients!"
"Coming, Master!" A Gui ran over in a hurry, carrying a large bundle of herbs.
"I've taken a rough look; these are all just sprains and bruises caused by overwork. With your current knowledge, you should be able to handle it."
"It's your first time seeing patients, don't disappoint me." Baizhu gave A Gui a slight smile.
"Yes! I guarantee I won't disappoint Master!" A Gui, who had been a bit dejected, immediately straightened up as if injected with a stimulant and began to work overtime.
He placed the herbs in his hands on the counter, quickly ran to the consultation seat, looking incredibly excited.
A Gui was Baizhu's only disciple, and he had always served as a pharmacist at Bubu Pharmacy. Although it was leisurely, it was quite different from the physician he envisioned in his heart.
What A Gui wanted was to practice medicine and heal the common people, just like Baizhu! And now, he had finally taken the first step towards his ideal as a physician.
Baizhu nodded in satisfaction at the sight. Seeing A Gui so energetic, should he give him more chores in the future?
Yu Jin looked at Baizhu's smiling face and inexplicably felt a faint hint of cunning emanating from him.
Was this the legendary 'scheming' personality?
"Why are there so many Fatui here?"
What if he was scheming? As long as it didn't affect Yu Jin, it was fine.
"Other places won't take them, so they have no choice but to come to my Bubu Pharmacy."
"At the end of the year, my performance will increase, so I'm even considering whether I should thank the Fatui." Baizhu shook his head, and from his tired tone, it was clear that he was not having an easy time.
"Mr… Mr. Baizhu, is… is he a patient…?" Qiqi ran over because she noticed that A Gui seemed to have stopped moving.
"Hmm…, he's more like a guest. Qiqi, go help A Gui, he's very busy."
"O… Okay."
Qiqi nodded, then skipped towards A Gui. Then she paused, turned her head, and said, "Oh… Oh, right, the… the patient in the ward… is trying to… escape!"
"Wah! Doctor Baizhu, come quickly, big brother is trying to escape! Are you going to give him an injection?!"
As soon as Qiqi finished speaking, a boy wearing a winter hat ran out from a side door of the Bubu Pharmacy.
"Hmm? Where is Mr. Yu Jin?" Baizhu felt his eyes blur for a moment, and Yu Jin had vanished.
"My intuition tells me he probably went to the ward of the escaping patient," Dain said with a sigh, patting the dust off himself.
"Teucer, don't worry, I'll go check. Disobeying medical advice is not allowed, even for a Harbinger." Baizhu patted Teucer's head, then walked into the Bubu Pharmacy's ward with a dangerous aura.
"You… don't come over here!"
"Hehehe, even if you scream until your throat is hoarse, no one will come to save you!"
"What are you doing?"
Just as Yu Jin finished speaking, Baizhu walked in. He pushed up his glasses and asked in surprise at the scene before him.
Childe was slumped on the sickbed, his face still pale with fright, clearly having been thoroughly scared.
And Yu Jin was sitting grandly on the window frame, completely blocking the open window.
"Your legs seem pretty nimble, don't they? How did you end up on the sickbed? Are you trying to slack off?!"
Yu Jin asked Childe fiercely. Just now, Childe's "Duang~" almost knocked him over. Is that the strength a patient should have?
He definitely didn't want to dig the river and wanted to slack off!
"But I injured my wrists," Childe said tearfully, holding up his hands, which were bandaged like white zongzi.
What the hell, why did he run into Yu Jin again while recovering from an injury and secretly trying to slack off?
"What? Oh, then it's fine." Yu Jin saw Childe holding up his "round hands," which were almost bandaged into cocoons, and jumped down from the window frame.
"Don't move…" After Yu Jin jumped down, Baizhu stepped forward and examined Childe's wrists.
"It's fine, nothing serious. You just need to take one more dose of oral medicine," Baizhu said with a sigh of relief after carefully examining Childe's "white pig trotters."
Looking at Childe, who had obediently laid back down, Baizhu turned his head and called out, "Qiqi, bring the concentrated Qingxin nectar, it's needed."
"Co… Coming!"
This time, Qiqi's reaction was unusually fast. Almost as soon as Baizhu finished speaking, Qiqi ran over, carrying a bottle of liquid medicine that looked like water.
"Here!"
Qiqi put down the medicine bottle and quickly moved away as if she had seen a monster.
Qiqi had forgotten many things, but some things she would never forget.
For example, coconut milk tastes good, Mr. Baizhu's medicine is very bitter, and among them, the ones with "Qingxin" in their name are the bitterest… These were things Qiqi would never forget, even without a notebook.
"Teucer, feed this bottle of medicine to your big brother. Don't spill a single drop!" Baizhu said to Teucer and Childe with a smile.
"Yu Jin, Dain, let's go. We'll find a quieter place to talk." The screams behind Baizhu, combined with the smile on his face, made him seem even more cunning.
Looking at Childe's crestfallen face not far away, Yu Jin inexplicably felt a little sorry for him, but good medicine tastes bitter, so there was nothing he could do.
After taking such bitter medicine, Childe should recover very quickly… right?
"What a peculiar little girl. Is her life force locked away?" Dain watched Qiqi, with a talisman stuck to her head, walk away, and asked with interest.
"Mr. Dain should be even more special than Qiqi," Baizhu nodded, then led Yu Jin and Dain into a pharmacy room deep within the Bubu Pharmacy.
"Are the two of you here to see a doctor?" Baizhu closed the door and stared intently at Dain, saying.
Although Baizhu's gaze was directed at Dain, Dain himself turned to look at Yu Jin.
"Sick? Neither of us is sick." Yu Jin spread his hands.
"Oh? That's strange then. Mr. Dain's appearance seems to differ from that of a normal person," Baizhu said, unconvinced. Anyone who wasn't blind could tell there was something wrong with Dain's appearance.
"Ah~, let's not talk about that for now. I ask you, Baizhu, are you seeking eternal life?"
"I am already here with Baizhu."
The small snake beside Baizhu's neck responded to Yu Jin's words, like a young boy and a young girl.
"Oh, so your name is Changsheng. I thought you were called Xiaobai." Yu Jin looked at the speaking Changsheng and then paid no more attention.
A speaking snake, is it that rare?
As long as the cursed toad didn't speak, nothing could scare Yu Jin.
"What a casual name?" Changsheng felt that Yu Jin was making fun of him. Would anyone really give such a casual name?
"Indeed. The lifespan of a human eventually comes to an end. For mortals, eternal life can be said to be the greatest temptation, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration."
"I am no exception."
Baizhu smiled, appearing extremely candid.
"No!" Yu Jin refuted Baizhu's words with great confidence. Because he saw that Baizhu's aura was almost connected to Changsheng.
Moreover, there were wisps of black energy lingering around Baizhu, indicating that he had absorbed something that didn't belong to him.
"You're seeking eternal life because of the little white snake on you!"
"My name is Changsheng."
Changsheng reminded him weakly.
Upon hearing this, the smile on Baizhu's face gradually faded. He sighed, lamenting, "It is widely rumored that Mr. Yu Jin possesses extraordinary abilities, and seeing it today, the rumors are indeed true."
"So, Mr. Yu Jin, are you here for 'Changsheng' this time?"
"That's right!" Yu Jin nodded, then introduced Dain to Baizhu, just as he had introduced Albedo:
"Baizhu, I have good news for you! Dain is more suitable for eternal life than you are!"
Yu Jin said in a tone that implied Baizhu was very lucky.
"???"
Dain was once again full of question marks.
