Chapter 2153: Chapter 1010: Immortal Family 4
Sun Yiyi and Chu Xianling both nodded.
"Last night, the three of us went to the ancient city again to take a look."
"Ugh! āā Donāt say anything, as soon as you start I feel itchy all over!" Chu Xianling said.
"Whatās wrong?"
"The ancient city is full of ants, marching ants. They eat people, theyāll eat anything, and those skeletons were eaten by the marching ants," Sun Yiyi said.
"Wow... I know about marching ants, they march in the tropical rainforest, leaving only yellow earth behind. They can turn a forest into a desert in an instant, itās terrifying," Miao Qingqing said.
"Luckily, weāre all experts, covering ten meters in a step, faster than the ants. But Station Chief Li of the Cultural Relics Protection Station, to protect artifacts and documents, pushed a cart himself. He couldnāt get up, and we watched as he was eaten clean by ants. It was horrifying," Song Xiaodong said.
"Are you saying ants can eat people?" Song Xiaoru asked.
"Ah, sis, you didnāt see it, those ant pincers are terrifying!" Sun Yiyi said.
"You guys should avoid such places in the future, itās too dangerous," Song Xiaoru said.
"Got it, got it. The key point is that General Zhao discovered people from the Dark Night Sect at Lop Nur, thatās why we went," Song Xiaodong nodded repeatedly.
"And then?"
"Then we found a female ghost, a male ghost, and a little ghost," Song Xiaodong said.
"You encountered ghosts? Stop kidding, there are no such things as ghosts!" Miao Qingqing said incredulously.
"How can you say that, look at that white shadow behind you," Song Xiaodong said to Miao Qingqing.
"You nasty! Scaring me like this, what if you mess with my pregnancy? Sister Xiaoru, hit him!" Miao Qingqing pointed at Song Xiaodong.
"Alright, Iāll hit her for you!" Song Xiaoru said, reaching out and knocking on Song Xiaodongās head.
"In the desert, we got stuck in a maze, wandering aimlessly, and a monk fought fiercely with the female ghost to save us, perishing together," Song Xiaodong said.
"Really?"
"Yeah, saved the lives of twenty or thirty of us," Chu Xianling also said.
"Later, a woman showed up, incredibly powerful, swooping down from the sky with a scroll in her hand. She could fly all over the sky and even move the desert sand in Lop Nur," Sun Yiyi said energetically.
"Move the sand? You guys are just making it up, if sheās that capable, she should just go be a mover!" Song Xiaoru gave Sun Yiyi a skeptical glance.
"Honestly, sis, if you donāt believe me, ask Xiaodong. That woman even told Song Xiaodong that the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed," Sun Yiyi said to Song Xiaoru.
"Wow, such masters really exist in the world," Chu Xianling couldnāt help but exclaim.
"Yeah, our Dragon Gate Kung Fu, why do we emphasize building a foundation? If we just focus on Qi Refinement, we wonāt develop any powerful divine skills, nor will we create any mighty magic artifacts," Song Xiaodong lamented.
"Didnāt that Young Taoist tell you, the Dragon Gateās cultivation methods are different from theirs, with very high foundational requirements, so in the early stages, you must reach Great Perfection in Qi Refinement to continue cultivation," Sun Yiyi said to Song Xiaodong.
"Yeah."
"Okay, okay, letās not talk about these scary things, go wash up and eat," Song Xiaoru instructed.
"Alright, alright."
"Hey, whereās my son?" Song Xiaodong asked Li Sijie.
"Your son was snatched by my parents, last time when I tried to bring him back, my dad got really upset," Li Sijie replied.
"Hahaha, alright, weāll visit your place another day then."
"Okay."
"When you go, bring the hat I knitted," Song Xiaoru said.
"Okay."
Chapter 2013: Repaying a Favor
The next day, Lin Suāer went to work at the hospital as usual and received a call.
"Hello? Director Lin? This is Zhao Fangyuan!" A deep male voice made the call.
"Oh, Director Zhao!" Lin Suāer replied.
"Director Lin, I have something Iād like to ask for your help with," Zhao Fangyuan said.
"What help do you need, Director Zhao? Just tell me directly," Lin Suāer replied.
The caller was a director from another hospital who had lent security personnel to Lin Suāer during a medical disturbance, and she owed him a favor.
"Oh, with those words, Director Lin, I feel relieved," Zhao Fangyuan said.
"I wonder what matter Director Zhao wants me to handle," Lin Suāer asked.
"Well, you see, I have a patient here that our hospital canāt treat, so Iād like to ask for your assistance," Zhao Fangyuan explained.
"Director Zhao, youāre not joking, right? Your hospital has much higher medical technology than ours. Thereās no way you would seek our help," Lin Suāer stated truthfully.
Zhao Fangyuanās hospital had higher medical technology in all departments than Lin Suāerās hospital.
This was a historical issue and had nothing to do with Lin Suāerās management.
"Itās not like that, Director Lin. Iām not asking your hospital for help; Iām asking for your personal help," Zhao Fangyuan said.
"You want my help?"
Lin Suāer was puzzled, as she was a nurse by training and couldnāt treat patients.
"Yes, actually, I was hoping through you, I could get Mr. Song to treat this patient," Zhao Fangyuan explained to Lin Suāer.
"Oh... I see."
Lin Suāer pondered for a moment and then said, "Director Zhao, getting Mr. Song to treat a patient is really difficult."
"Exactly, thatās why I need your help, Director Lin!" Zhao Fangyuan pleaded.
"Alright, Iāll ask when I go back."
"Director Lin, please act quickly as the patient is in constant life-threatening danger," Zhao Fangyuan urged Lin Suāer.
