Chapter 110 - 110 Fire
110 Fire
Someone couldn’t help but want to say something, but he was stopped by his companion. They had come to ask for a favor, but now they had obviously offended the other party. If they said anything more to aggravate the conflict, would the other party still treat them?
“I don’t care about anything else. Look for yourself. That person is blocking someone else’s door. Since this matter was caused by you, of course you have to solve it.”
The village chief knew that he couldn’t win against Mo Ruyue, so he didn’t waste his breath and turned to leave after saying this.
Mo Ruyue looked at the people who were waiting to seek medical treatment. She knew that if this matter was not handled well, the trouble that followed would be bigger than any of the previous ones.
Not only would she be labeled as “not helping” but if there were a few people who were stubborn, they might take revenge and use some shady means.
She was never afraid to speculate about human nature with the greatest malice.
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted from outside the crowd, “Everyone, don’t make things difficult for Lady Qin. If you block her door like this, even if she was originally willing to save you, she would be forced to show her disgust.”
Everyone looked back and saw a white-haired old man getting off an ox cart. He was slowly walking over with the help of a child.
“Lady Qin, this old man came uninvited, I hope Lady Qin can forgive me.”
As the old man walked over, he cupped his hands and apologized to Mo Ruyue. The crowd in front of him subconsciously parted to make way for him.
Mo Ruyue looked at the old man speechlessly, and immediately felt disgusted.
“Old man, didn’t I make myself clear last time? Are you trying to force me out by coming to my door like this?”
Her tone was very cold, and it didn’t change just because the other party was an old man, and also a once highly respected imperial doctor in the palace.
“Lady Qin, I know that this action is very shameful, as if I’m using my power to suppress you, forcing you to do what I want, but… It’s really not like this, listen to me explain.”
The old imperial doctor had long anticipated Mo Ruyue’s reaction. Although an ashamed expression flashed across his face, he still walked over and stood in front of her.
At least Mo Ruyue still remembered that he had helped her a little and didn’t drive him away on the spot.
“Originally, this old man could understand what Lady Qin said that day, especially after that kind of thing happened. You don’t want to cause trouble and just want to live a peaceful life. These are all human nature.”
“But Lady Qin, you have a unique skill. Even if you are invisible in this mountain, can’t you still attract people? Look at all the people around you who have come to seek medical treatment. If it wasn’t for the fact that they or their family members are suffering from illness and torture, who would be willing to be thick-skinned and come to seek help?”
It had to be said that this old imperial doctor had come from the palace after all. The standard of his speech was much higher than those of the common people. However, his words still could not move Mo Ruyue.
“Since you are so kind, why don’t you do me a favor and take these people back to Huichun Hall for treatment? I don’t have three heads and six arms, so I can’t treat them. I don’t want to delay their treatment.”
Mo Ruyue’s attitude was still the same as before. She didn’t expect that the old imperial doctor would listen to her and nod. “Alright, I’ll take over the people here.”
Everyone was stunned when they heard his words, but their faces revealed an extremely unwilling look.
From the Qin Village to Huichun Hall, it was a walk of dozens of miles. Why didn’t he ask for the Divine Doctor in front of him and go to the Huichun Hall to line up?
They were not stupid!
Mo Ruyue didn’t think that the old imperial doctor would agree to her request. She was only stunned for a moment before she regained her calm.
She turned to look at the crowd around her and saw the unwillingness on their faces. Her lips curled into a cold and mocking arc.
Now, there was someone who was willing to accept them and treat them, but they still had to be picky. Therefore, sometimes she didn’t want to be a saint, because some people really didn’t deserve it.
“Well, you have a place to go. Huichun Hall is willing to take you in. If you go now, you can still find an inn and settle down.”
Mo Ruyue immediately gave the order to see the guests out. With so many people noisily blocking the way, if she was the neighbor and the villager, she would also feel annoyed.
“Lady Qin, you’re just going to send us away like this? We’ve been waiting here the whole night and the whole morning. Even if you want to show us a few people, you don’t have to make us come for nothing, right?”
Someone finally couldn’t help but ask the question in his heart. When the others saw that someone had been the first one to act, they were secretly happy, but at the same time, they quickly echoed.
“Alright, then who do you guys think I should show it to, and who should I not show it to?”
Mo Ruyue’s words broke the temporary alliance that everyone had formed. Everyone looked at each other, and no one knew who took the lead, but they suddenly began to squeeze forward.
“Divine Doctor Qin, please take a look at my mother! She’s old. Didn’t you save an old woman before? Let’s save another one now!”
“No, no, Divine Doctor Qin, please take a look at my daughter. She’s only six years old. She’s still so young. You’re also a mother. If your child… No, I didn’t mean it that way. Please save my daughter!”
“Save me! How could they be considered patients when they were all alive and kicking! I’m going to die soon and I’m being tortured every day. I didn’t do anything bad, so why did I get an incurable disease?”
“Divine Doctor Qin, aren’t you afraid of trouble? He was afraid that the treatment would take too long and delay things, wasn’t it? Then punish me! My illness is easy to cure. With your wonderful hands, you will be able to cure me very soon!”
They were all fighting to be the first to push forward, afraid that they would not get the chance to heal if they were pushed to the back.
Mo Ruyue stepped back to the steps at the door and casually took out a very thick hemp rope from the ground at the door. Her figure flashed and the hemp rope tightened, blocking the people who were rushing to the door.
“Aiyo, my waist!”
The man walking in front was stopped by the hemp rope. Mo Ruyue’s arm shook slightly, and the strength of her arm passed through the rope and dragged the man to the back.
The moment he fell, he pressed down on the people who were rushing over from behind. This caused their fanatical minds to calm down a little.
“You guys are really good. Let’s go higher!”
Mo Ruyue was really angry.
The thing she hated the most was being forced to do things, not to mention now that she was being forced to do so. If she had not set up some traps and defenses for the babies during their training, she would not have been able to stop them at all if she did not want to knock down a few people.
The old imperial doctor had already been helped to the side by his child as the crowd rushed forward. Even so, he was still scraped by the crowd and almost fell.
He looked in surprise at the crowd that was gradually quieting down. He didn’t think that this group of people would suddenly lose control like this. If Mo Ruyue hadn’t stopped them just now, would they have broken into someone else’s house?
