Chapter 188 Qingdeng gets promoted and pays the thieves to change? [Explosive update 1W]
[Ding! Talent scanned]
[Successfully copied talent: "Bear's Waist"]
[Talent introduction: The explosive power of the waist is easy for ordinary people]
The system's beep sounded suddenly in Qingdeng's mind.
Successfully copied the talent from Kamaitachi.
Apparently, it was only at this moment that the system finally determined that the battle between Qingto and Kamitachi was over.
Qingdeng was not listening at all to what the sudden system voice was saying.
At this moment, all his attention was focused on the battle ahead, and on Kiryu's sword that instantly killed Kamaitachi.
Kiryu seemed to be merciful.
The knife he just struck could completely split Kamamaita's entire body into two parts diagonally.
But he didn't do that at all.
Cut from the right thigh to the left shoulder... Although this huge incision looks scary, the wound is not deep. It only cuts through the skin and flesh, not even the bones or internal organs.
After killing Kamitachi with one strike, Kiryu suddenly let go of his left hand that was holding the scabbard, and then used his free left hand to grab Kamitatsu's mouth with thunderous force.
His right arm was cut off, and most of his body was cut open... The pain could no longer be described in specific words. Kamaitachi was unable to even scream, and his consciousness became incomplete.
However, after seeing Kiryu's left hand grabbing his mouth, Kamaitachi's originally fragmented consciousness quickly condensed at this critical moment.
I saw a fierce flash in his eyes, followed by a movement in his mouth and throat.
Poof...! Most of Kiryu's left hand went directly into Kamitachi's mouth. The movement was very rough. With a muffled sound of his mouth and teeth being hit hard, he forcibly inserted his palm into Kamitachi's mouth and directly pushed Kamitachi into it.
Both corners of Itachi's mouth were torn apart, making Kamaita's mouth physically larger.
Kiryu seemed to be looking for something in Kamaitachi's mouth.
After inserting most of his left palm into Kamitachi's mouth, he turned his fingers and touched every corner of Kamitatsu's mouth.
Judging from the displeased expression on Kiryu's face afterwards...he probably didn't find what he wanted from Kamaitachi's mouth.
"Kamaitachi, you bunch of cadres of the Execution Party are really committing suicide faster than the other..."
"..." Kamitachi was speechless. He only slightly raised the corner of his torn mouth, and there was a trace of teasing in his eyes as he looked at Kiryu.
Then……
"Cough! Cough! Phew! Phew! Cough! Cough! Cough!"
Kamaita's two eyes were bulging forward as if they were about to be squeezed out of their sockets. The whites of his eyes were occupied by dense red bloodshot eyes. He coughed rapidly as if he was trying to cough out his two lungs.
Blood spurted out from his throat, dyeing the lower half of Kiryu's left arm red.
When Kamitachi finally stopped coughing... he also stopped breathing.
In less than 10 seconds, all the life force was gone from Kamaitachi's body.
He rolled his eyes upwards with force. His eyes lost focus and brightness, and his body lost all strength and fell limply toward the ground.
Kiryu didn't help Kamitachi who fell to the ground.
He withdrew his left hand from Kamitachi's mouth and looked at Kamitatsu who had fallen into a pool of blood with a thoughtful expression.
After a moment, he vigorously shook off the blood on the knives held by his left and right hands. His right hand gracefully held the knife in a flower shape, and changed the knife he was holding to an upside-down grip. Using an upside-down motion, he held the knife with the purple light shining in it.
Mang's sword was slowly retracted into its sheath.
Then, he used his freed right hand to pull out the Dingkishin that was still inserted into Kamitachi's body, turned around, and walked towards Qingnobo and Kinoshita Mai with the Dingkishin in hand.
"Tachibana-kun, your sword, go ahead."
Aoden used mechanical movements to take the Jingkishin handed over by Kiryu.
Looking at Kiryu's old face with a faint smile, Qingden gradually felt that he had regained his correct understanding of the outside world, and everything around him no longer felt distant and blurry.
However, even though he has regained his awareness of the outside world, Qingdeng's brain is still horribly confused.
Ever since Kiryu suddenly appeared, a large number of questions have filled Qingto's brain.
At this moment, Qingdeng's mind was still in chaos. All kinds of things were like being stirred into a washing machine, spinning rumblingly at such a fast speed that he could not yet accurately control the current situation.
There were so many things he wanted to talk to Kiryu and questions he wanted to ask Kiryu. There were so many that Qingto felt like he didn’t even know where to start.
The same thing happened to Mai Kinoshita next to Aoto - she had a confused expression with so many questions that she didn't know where to start.
No one spoke... the atmosphere was so quiet that time seemed to have frozen.
It wasn't until Kiryu had reached the two of them that Kinoshita Mai finally took the lead to let the frozen time start flowing again.
"Mr. Kiryu...why are you here?"
Kiryu did not immediately respond to Kinoshita Mai's response.
Instead, he smiled faintly first, then turned his eyes, looked at Kinoshita Mai, and then looked at Qingteng... His eyes stayed on Qingteng's body for a little longer.
"Young Master, Mr. Ju, I will explain it to you slowly later."
"This is not a good time or place to talk."
Kiryu turned his head and glanced at the intersection to the west.
"The official servants who have been reformed by the fire thieves are here. If I continue to stay here, if the officials who have been reformed by the fire thieves find out, it will be easy to explain."
Blah blah blah...
As soon as Kiryu finished speaking, the sound of dense footsteps and the clang of clashing matchlock guns could be heard from the western intersection.
Listening to these sounds, Kinoshita Mai's expression changed.
"Is there any mistake? When we needed their help just now, they didn't show up. Now we don't need them anymore, and they showed up so promptly!"
Mai Kinoshita, who has always been well-educated, now rarely used a slightly vulgar tone.
It's no wonder that Kinoshita Mai was so excited... If it weren't for the fact that she was so exhausted that she didn't even have the strength to speak loudly, Qingden would probably have said even more extreme words.
Originally, when only he and Mai Kinoshita managed to catch up with Kamino, the one who couldn't be let go, and no one else knew where they were, Aomori felt a little resentful towards the Kaifu Thief Kai, who seemed to have some problems with his work efficiency.
But now, he had just been beaten to death, almost killing himself and Mai Kinoshita. None of the official officials of this gang of thieves showed up. Now that the battle is over, all the enemies have been beheaded, and these talents are finally here.
Too late...
Qingden had to take several deep breaths to calm down his excitement.
"Young Master, Mr. Ju. I will take the first step."
Kiryu's voice came again.
He walked back to Kamitachi's body and carried Kamitatsu's body on his shoulders, along with Kamitatsu's severed arm and his sword.
"I have to take away Kamaitachi's body."
"Young Master, Mr. Tachibana, can you please keep the secret of Kamitachi... is this guy's existence?"
Kiryu shook the body of Kamitachi that was carried on his shoulders.
"To put it simply, I ask you and everyone else to conceal the fact that you fought this guy."
"I will find an opportunity to explain it to you slowly later."
Kiryu's tone was calm...but there was an unquestionable seriousness in his tone.
Tonight, I really encountered too many things that exceeded the limits of my brain thinking and imagination... There were too many things that I couldn't figure out.
In the current situation where you still don't know anything, it's better not to act on your own and to make decisions on your own.
Therefore, Qingden only thought for a moment and nodded. Kinoshita Mai also nodded at almost the same time.
Seeing the two of them nodding, Kiryu smiled slightly.
"See you later, Tachibana-kun."
After saying that, Kiryu carried Kamitachi's body and quickly ran towards a dark alley not far away.
In just a few breaths, Kiryu's figure and his breath disappeared from Qingto's perception.
Before Kiryu completely disappeared from his sight, Qingden vaguely heard Kiryu's faint voice, muttering to himself in a low voice:
"What a pity...that Kamino Tatsugoro is already dead...otherwise, I really want to take him back and interrogate him to find out what the relationship is between their anti-barbarian group and the Fazu Party..."
Qingden blinked a few times and looked blankly at the place where Kiryu and Kamitachi were standing.
Kamaitachi, who had just forced him and Kinoshita Mai into a desperate situation, was beheaded to death by Kiryu, whom he was familiar with, in an instant, and his body was taken away.
Kiryu suddenly appeared, and then left quickly without saying a few words.
The above-mentioned things all happened in less than 5 minutes...
The so-called "fast-changing"...that's what I mean.
Things are changing too fast. Desperate situations and habitats are changing rapidly. If the pain from all parts of the body is not so real and intense, otherwise Qingdeng will not be able to help but doubt himself, "Am I in this situation now?"
dream?".
"Did we survive..."
Kinoshita Mai suddenly murmured.
Her petite body seemed to have suddenly lost its support, swaying slightly and almost collapsing to the ground.
But fortunately, before his body was about to sit on the ground, he stabilized his body's center of gravity in time.
"We survived...!"
She repeated what she had just said, then raised her head and looked up at Qingden, who was much taller than her.
Aoto, who felt Kinoshita Mai's gaze, lowered his chin and looked at Kinoshita Mai.
The moment their eyes met, a cute smile flickered on Kinoshita's cheeks.
A bright smile with a hint of shyness, revealing sincere emotions without pretense.
Thousands of words are melted into this smile.
This long night of continuous fighting in various parts of Edo was finally over... Thinking of this, and looking at the smile on Mai Kinoshita's face who had accompanied him through life and death without any regrets tonight, Qingto couldn't help but smile.
"Ah...I almost forgot..."
At this moment, Qingdeng suddenly remembered - there is another guy who has not been completely solved yet...
Qingden put away the smile on his face, turned his head and looked behind him on his left side, looking at the place where Kamino had just fallen to the ground.
As soon as he turned his eyes away, Qingdeng's expression became startled.
The ground where Kamino, a living person, should have been lying... now there was only a pool of blood and a string of dense blood stains extending towards the alley in the distance.
"You still have the strength to escape..."
Looking at the string of blood stains that were obviously left by Kamino when he escaped, Qingden couldn't help but show a surprised expression.
After starting the fight to the death with Kamaitachi, neither Aoto nor Mai Kinoshita had any energy left to take care of Kamino.
Qingteng did not expect that Kamino would still have the strength to escape secretly when no one had time to pay attention to him.
Kamino escaped... but Qingden didn't feel the slightest bit annoyed or anxious.
His chest was completely cut open, he was bleeding heavily, and his lungs were chopped off... With injuries like this, there was no way he could escape.
It's impossible to survive.
…
…
“Ho…! Ho…! Ho…! Ho…! Ho…!”
Kamino was holding on to the dirty alley wall next to him and breathing hard.
Although every time he took a breath, the severed left lung felt so severe that Kamino almost fainted, he still endured the pain and continued to breathe hard.
If he doesn't inhale, the feeling of lack of oxygen will only make him more uncomfortable.
However... no matter how hard Kamino inhaled, he felt like he couldn't take it all in.
Rather, it seemed that the more he inhaled, the less air Kamino felt he could take in.
In order to make himself feel better, Kamino no longer held his head up, he lowered his head and let it hang on his chest.
Such an action forced Kamino to see the huge wound on his chest.
——What a shame... you actually... figured out my secret technique by observing my shadow...
Although he only saw it for a moment, Kamino was sure that he saw it correctly - when Qingteng took the initiative to rush towards him who planned to use his "secret technique" to end the duel, Qingteng was not observing his body movements;
Watch his shadow under the moon.
In order to prevent his opponents from discovering what techniques he used to extend the attack distance, he adopted a posture that allowed him to hide his sword and arms behind his back when using his "secret technique".
In the end, Qingdeng just relied on observing his shadow under the moon and predicting the timing of his sword attack based on the changes in the shadow of his hand. He finally succeeded in evading his secret technique and gave him a fatal blow.
——Damn it...! Damn it...!
Kamino was so angry that he wanted to let out a loud roar.
He had made so many preparations for tonight, for the complete destruction of the Edo settlement.
Purchase a large amount of kerosene from the smuggler. After all the kerosene purchased from the smuggler was lost due to the activities of the fox monk and the cat monk, he turned to the Rakshasa to buy kerosene...
In order to smoothly transport kerosene into the settlement, Natsume Yue, the daughter of Natsume Sohachiro, was kidnapped...
In order to find out the architectural layout of the residence; to find out the list of guests attending the Bright Ball; to find out where the camps of the guards at the residence are, I spent a lot of money to talk to Lan Fang, the doctor who lives in the residence: Huatian.
Shichiro started the deal. They paid, and Hanada Shichiro relied on his status to help them get this valuable information...
I have made so many preparations just to fulfill my long-cherished wish to "destroy the Edo Residence" tonight.
As a result, because of Ju Qingden... and because of this national traitor, they were once again defeated.
This time, not only did the entire group suffer heavy losses, but even my own life was in danger...
"Ahem...!"
My throat has been coughed until it becomes hoarse, and I almost lose consciousness after coughing.
Since just now, his hands and feet have been as cold as if they were immersed in ice water. This coldness began to gradually spread along his limbs throughout his body, and Kamino was so cold that his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
My head felt dizzy...and it became more and more dizzy, so dizzy that I could hardly tell where the sky was and where the earth was.
Completely relying on the willpower of "I don't want to die, I want to live", Kamino dragged his remaining body and persisted in escaping until now.
But no matter how strong your willpower is, it will eventually have its limit.
Kamino's right foot suddenly tripped on a protrusion on the ground beneath his feet, causing him to fall forward.
This bump that tripped up Kamino was the last straw that broke the camel's back for Kamino.
Kamino, who fell heavily to the ground, put his hands on the ground and tried to get up, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stand up again.
"Is this... the end of it..."
Staring at the ground in front of his nose, Kamino took a deep breath, used up his last bit of strength, and sat upright on the ground with his knees bent. He pulled out the only weapon left on his body - the waistband, and at the same time, he opened the kimono on his upper body.
The skirt of his clothes exposed his belly.
——Since death is certain... let's commit suicide beautifully like a real samurai...
Kamino tried his best to straighten his waist, holding the wakizashi in his right hand, and pointed the tip of the flat wakizashi sword at his left abdomen, with a tragic expression on his face.
——If he died by committing seppuku...then I would not have lived up to my name as a samurai!
——In this way, I can be regarded as a proud person despite my defeat.
——Just follow my long-cherished wish and just do a three-character cut!
In addition to the most common "Ichimonjiri", there are many other types of laparotomy methods, such as: "Jumonjiri" and "Sanmonjiri".
Sanmonji cut: As the name suggests, it is a laparotomy method in which three cuts are made across the abdomen to directly cut out a "three" character.
Because it is too painful, no one has successfully completed the "Sanmonjiri" since the emergence of this crazy method of suicide.
Kamino, who has always considered himself a "real samurai" and strictly regulates himself by Bushido, has always longed for "Sanmonjiri".
A long time ago, Kamino decided that if someone could complete the "Sanmonjiri", that person would be a samurai among samurai and a role model for samurai!
Ever since, Kamino secretly made up his mind: if one day in the future, he needs to have a caesarean section, then he must challenge this "Sanmonjiri" that no one has ever succeeded in!
Kamino, who made up his mind to commit seppuku to express his will, decided to make three straight cuts on his stomach in one go.
However... just as Kamino put the sharp tip of the wakizashi's knife close to the left side of his abdomen, and felt the coldness of the tip on his skin, Kamino's movements suddenly stopped.
——Piercing the knife into the stomach and slicing it open... This must be very painful...
Kamino gritted his teeth and cursed secretly. Then, while trying to clear his mind and get rid of these chaotic thoughts in his mind, he used his right hand hard, trying to pierce the knife into his stomach.
But no matter how hard he tried, no matter how hard he gathered his mind and body, he just couldn't stab the knife into his stomach.
The severe pain of the stomach being cut open; the internal organs flowed all over the floor; you can't cry out for pain during a caesarean section, you have to endure the pain, keep your face straight, and cut your stomach beautifully without a groan; there are no mistakes around you
People must walk the last part of their lives in the severe pain of having their stomachs cut open... These thoughts, these imaginations of what will happen if they have a caesarean section, flooded into Kamino's mind one after another.
The tragic expression on Kamino's face disappeared.
The tragic feeling turned into fear and shrinking, and cold sweat soaked his entire face.
My right hand began to tremble...the wakizashi in my hand trembled along with the palm of my right hand.
Finally, after hesitating repeatedly and struggling for less than 10 seconds, Kamino forcefully shook away the right hand holding the knife pointed at his right abdomen, keeping the sharp knife tip far away from his stomach.
Snap, snap, snap, snap...
Suddenly, Kamino suddenly heard the sound of soft footsteps coming from ahead.
Thinking that the pursuers were coming, Kamino quickly turned his head and looked forward.
The person who came was not Qingden, Kinoshita Mai, or a heavily armed officer.
They were two arrogant ronin who both had knives on their waists, their hair was messy, their clothes were crookedly worn.
The faces of the two ronin were very red, and the stench of wine on their bodies could be smelled from a distance.
When Kamino looked at them, the two drunken ronin also noticed Kamino.
Seeing Kamino covered in blood, the two ronin were so frightened that they shuddered and almost woke up from the wine.
"Help, help me..."
Just like seeing a life-saving straw or a savior, Kamino immediately showed a hopeful expression after discovering that the person who came was not an official.
"Save me... take me to... the hospital... afterwards... I will... thank you generously..."
Kamino concentrated all the energy he had planned to save for disembowelment on the vocal cords of his throat, and made a humble plea to the two ronin.
Begging these two ronin to save his life.
However, these two ronin were not listening at all to what he was saying.
The two ronin were now staring directly at the wakizashi in Kamino's right hand.
In the pupils of his eyes, there was an undisguised light of greed.
Kamino's two sabers are not extraordinary, they are both treasures that cannot be bought for dozens of taels of gold in the market.
Seeing that the wakizashi in Kamino's hand was not a cheap item, the two samurai looked at each other in tacit understanding.
Then, while grinning ferociously, he approached Kamino.
"Hey, you." One of them said arrogantly to Shenye in a rough tone. "We are patriots to fight against the barbarians! In order to realize the great cause of 'riding out the barbarians from the world,' we went all the way and now we have been invaded by a large number of barbarians."
of Edo.”
Another person took over the conversation and raised his hand to pat the saber on his left waist:
"If you want to fight off the invaders, you can't do it without a handy weapon."
"So, please take a step, please support us and contribute a little bit of your efforts to our great cause of repelling the foreigners!"
After saying that, without waiting for Kamino to respond, the two men swarmed up like hungry tigers, snatched the wakizashi from Kamino's hand, and then hurried away.
"Hiss...it's such a good knife."
"I should be able to sell it for 20 taels of gold."
"Let's take this knife to the pawn shop and sell it tomorrow. Hehehe, we'll have enough money for drinks in the next few months."
"What are you drinking? After selling this knife, we will go directly to Yoshiwara to play."
"Yeah."
…
The figures of the two drifted away little by little along with their triumphant words, and finally disappeared completely before Kamino's eyes.
Kamino stared blankly at the direction in which the two ronin disappeared. After being in a daze for a few seconds, strong humiliation and resentment emerged from his facial features.
He subconsciously wanted to stand up and chase the two people. While trying to stand up, he opened his mouth and wanted to shout.
As a result, as soon as he straightened his waist suddenly, an intense dizziness hit his head like a heavy hammer.
The sudden violent movement... made his already broken body finally overwhelmed.
First, a black spot appeared in the corner of his eye. When he discovered this black spot, it had rapidly expanded to his entire field of vision, making his eyes completely black and unable to see anything anymore.
Immediately afterwards, hearing, smell, touch and other senses disappeared one by one.
Kamino could no longer see anything and felt as if his body was falling into the darkness below.
Keep falling... keep falling...
After falling all the way to the bottom of darkness, I can no longer perceive anything.
The samurai's sword is known as the "soul of the samurai".
And this samurai, who always regarded himself as a "real samurai" and liked to use Bushido to demand himself and others, was robbed of his sword at the last moment of his life.
After a while, another set of footsteps approached Kamino.
They were transformed into official servants by four fire-fighting thieves armed with matchlock guns.
"The body was found!"
"Is it the body of Kamino Tatsugoro?"
"have no idea."
"This alley is so dark that I can't even see clearly. Drag this body out first!"
"Okay. I'll grab the left foot, and you grab the right foot."
Like dragging some rubbish, the four fire thieves-turned-officers used very rough movements to drag Kamino's body away from the alley...
…
…
10 days later——
The first year of Wanyan (1860), June 1st——
Edo, Jin Medical Hall, Aoto's ward——
"Hiss...Mr. Beifang, please be a little more forceful..."
Qingden couldn't help but gasp in pain, and smiled bitterly at the handsome young man in front of him.
"I'm sorry." The handsome young man wearing a cloth mask raised his eyes towards Qingden, his eyes full of apology, "I will be more careful. Xiaosaki, Bu."
"Yes." A beautiful girl, also wearing a cloth mask, sitting next to the handsome young man, handed the clean cloth prepared early in the morning to the handsome young man.
Ten days ago, with the deaths of Kamano and Kamitachi, the series of turmoil caused by the anti-barbarian group finally settled, and the bruised Ayoto was immediately sent to the most famous medical hospital in Edo——
Renyi Tang.
Almost everyone in Edo has heard of the name of Jin Medical Hall.
The founder and chief physician of Ren Yi Tang is a famous doctor who is only 27 years old: Beifang Ren.
Speaking of this Northern Jin, he is also a well-known figure in Edo.
He is proficient in both Chinese medicine and Orchid medicine... that is, he is proficient in both Chinese medicine and Western medicine.
It can not only check people's pulses and prescribe traditional Chinese medicine, but also use medical instruments such as scalpels and forceps to perform advanced surgical operations on patients.
Nowadays, there are still very few people who know the medical skills of Lan Fang. Doctors like Bei Ren, who are "Han Lan Fang practitioners" and have extremely high attainments in both medical skills, are even rarer than giant pandas.
Because of his superb medical skills and noble medical ethics, regardless of whether the patient was a noble samurai or a lowly bastard, Northern Jin treated them equally and devoted himself to treatment. Therefore, Northern Jin and the Jin Medical Hall he opened have always enjoyed a great reputation in Edo.
High reputation.
The treatment of knife wounds is one of Beifu Ren's special skills, so it was right to send Qingdeng, who suffered several wounds, to Renyi Tang for diagnosis and treatment.
At this moment, the handsome young man sitting in front of Qing Deng is none other than the famous Beifang Ren.
And the beautiful girl sitting next to Beitai Jin who was in charge of the treatment was Beitai Jin's assistant and the only female doctor in this hospital: Tachibana Saki.
With the help of Tachibana Saki, Kitata Jin wiped off the solidified ointment that had been applied to the wound sutured by Aoden little by little.
Because the cloth used to apply the ointment would inevitably scratch Qingdeng's wounds, Qingdeng would often twitch in pain.
"Jijun, would you like some Jinping candy?"
Okita, who was sitting beside Qingtou's bed, reached into his arms and took out a small bag filled with Jinpei candy.
"Eat something sweet to distract yourself and it will not hurt so much."
Aoto now has no appetite for overly sweet food like Jinpei Tang, so he can only politely decline Okita's proposal.
Qingden felt that time had become extremely long. After a lot of hard work, he finally managed to scrape off the solidified ointment on the wound.
Bei Ren pondered while carefully looking at every injury on Qingdeng's body.
After looking at Qingdeng's stab wounds, he turned to examine the muscles of Qingdeng's limbs and other places.
Because he pushed his body too hard to fight, Qingden suffered muscle strains of varying degrees in various parts of his body...especially his right hand and right foot.
After Qingdeng's body was thoroughly inspected, Bei Ren nodded slightly with a smile in his eyes:
"Mr. Tachibana, your recovery ability is very good."
"The wounds are growing well and there are no symptoms of inflammation."
"The muscles are also recovering well."
"At this rate, it will only take about 1 or 2 months for you to recover."
The good recovery from physical injuries is due to the talent "Physical Fitness" with the effect of "excellent recovery speed of injuries".
Because he knew he had such a talent, his body recovered quickly from injuries, which was all within Qingdeng's expectation.
"Mr. Beifang, how long do I have to stay here at Renyitang before I can go home?"
In order to facilitate the treatment of his injuries, Qingdeng temporarily stayed in Renyitang on the advice of Beifang Ren.
As one of the largest medical clinics in Edo, Jinyido has a fairly large "inpatient area".
These days, Aoto has been hospitalized here at Jinyido, and his daily life is basically taken care of by his old servant Jiubei. Okita and other friends will come to visit Aoto from time to time.
This is why Okita is staying by Aoto's bedside at this time.
Because Beifu Ren never specializes in status, all inpatient wards in Ren Yitang are spacious 8-person rooms.
However, Qingdeng is very lucky. There are not many patients hospitalized in Renyitang at this stage. There are no other "tenants" in the ward he currently lives in except himself. He has a spacious large hall to himself.
Ward.
"Well... just to be cautious, you can stay here for another 10 days."
Northern Ren made a gesture to Tachibana Saki beside him. Tachibana Saki, who understood the meaning of Northern Ren's gesture, quickly handed a book and a slightly old pen in his arms to Northern Ren.
Bei Ren, who took the notebook and pen, continued to speak to Qingden while writing something on the notebook.
"If your injury is still recovering well after 10 days, you can go home."
You must listen to the doctor's orders... Since the attending doctor suggested that "it is best to stay for another 10 days," Qingdeng had no choice but to obey.
Now that the examination of Qingdeng's injuries has been completed, there are still many patients waiting for him to see Bei Ren, who will not stay in Qingdeng's ward for a long time.
I saw Kitata Jin, with the cooperation of Tachibana Saki, using extremely skilled movements to apply his special ointment on Aomori's wounds.
After applying ointment, wrapping it with linen, and completing today's dressing change work, Beitaren led Tachibana Saki out of Ayoto's ward quickly.
Before leaving, Bei Ren did not forget to give a few more suggestions such as "drink more water" and "try to eat as lightly as possible".
As the two doctors left, the ward where Aomori and Okita were left alone was suddenly surrounded by silence.
“I have to stay for 10 more days…”
Qingdeng let out a long breath, leaned back, and lay back on his hospital bed.
"Tachibana-kun, don't you like living here?"
Okita took out the Jinping candy that he never left behind, and started chewing it.
"Who would like to stay in a medical clinic?" Qingden glanced at Okita helplessly, "Don't you think the smell here is terrible? If I could go back to the medical clinic now, I would have rushed back without stopping."
There is always a strong smell of medicinal herbs floating in the air of Renyitang. Even though he has lived here for nearly 10 days, Qingden is still not used to the smell.
Okita sniffed: "Well... the smell here is indeed not very pleasant. Just bear with it a little longer. Didn't the doctor just say that you can leave as long as you stay for another 10 days?"
Pat, pat, pat, pat...
As soon as Okita finished speaking, footsteps were heard outside the ward. Familiar footsteps, footsteps that Qingto could not have mistaken.
Qingto and Okita reflexively looked at the door.
Immediately afterwards, the sliding door of the ward opened.
The person who appeared was Aoden's old servant Jiubei.
"Young Master, I've finished washing the clothes." Jiubei said as he walked quickly to Qingto's bed with a cloth bag in his arms.
After Aotomo was hospitalized, the reason why Kubei, who had been taking care of Aotobo's daily life, was absent just now was because he went to do Aotobo's laundry.
In order to make it easier for hospitalized patients to wash and change clothes, Renyi Hall has a "laundry room" specially used by patients' family members.
Kubei just went to the "laundry room" to wash Aoto's dirty clothes.
"Young Master, I just saw Mr. Beifang in the corridor. Has he come to change your dressing? Did he say how your injury is recovering? Did he say when you can leave here?"
Kyuubei asked Aobei several questions at once like a barrage of firecrackers.
Qingdeng patiently answered the questions raised by Jiubei one by one.
After learning that Jin Beitai personally said that "Aoden's body is recovering well," Kyubei showed an expression of relief.
"That's good." Jiubei nodded gently, "Just stay for another 10 days, stay for another 10 days. It's better to stay longer, it will make you feel more at ease."
"Kyuubei, I have to trouble you to suffer here with me for another 10 days." Aonto said half-jokingly.
Qingden knew that Jiubei couldn't get used to the strong smell of medicine here.
"Young Master, what are you talking about?" Jiubingwei smiled simply.
Jiubei wanted to continue to say something, but he could only say this. Footsteps were heard outside the ward again.
There were a lot of footsteps this time... three in total.
Listening to these three sudden footsteps, Qingdeng raised his eyebrows, and then couldn't help but smile.
These three footsteps are the same as Kyubei's footsteps just now. They are footsteps that Aoto is very familiar with and are unmistakable footsteps.
Boom, boom, boom.
The sliding door of the ward was knocked three times rhythmically.
"Tangerine-kun, are you there?"
"I'm here." Qingden, who already knew who the visitors were, responded loudly, "Sir Arima, please come in quickly."
After receiving Qingdeng's permission to enter the room, the sliding door of the ward opened with a bang, and three adult men of different sizes filed in.
"Sir Arima, you are all here." Qingto subconsciously showed a relaxed smile.
The people who entered were none other than three senior officials from Qingdeng: Arima, Inoya and Usuyama.
"Tachibana, good morning." Inodani, who was holding a big watermelon in his hand, grinned at Qingden, "Here, take the condolence gift and eat it with your friends later."
After that, Inotani put the big watermelon in his hand next to Qingden's bedside.
Okita, who was munching on the Jinpei candy like a hamster, looked at the large watermelon with bright eyes, which was quite good in color and appearance.
Sweet watermelon... This is one of Okita's favorite fruits, who loves sweets.
It's summer now, and it's the time when watermelon is at its peak season.
Watermelon in the Edo period was not a very expensive or luxurious fruit. The average price of a watermelon ranged from 32 fen to 100 fen.
The three Arima people who entered the ward greeted Kubei and Okita one after another, and then sat down next to Aoto's bed.
During the period when Ayoto was hospitalized, his three seniors often came to visit him, so Ayoto was not surprised by the sudden visit from Arima and others.
"Tachibana-kun." Arima was the first to open the topic, "How is the healing of the wound going?"
Since they came to visit Qingteng, Arima and the others' focus was naturally on Qingteng's physical condition.
"Mr. Beibu just checked my wounds. He said that my injuries are recovering well." Qingto smiled slightly, and then repeated to the three Arima people what Beibu Jin said when he changed his dressing just now.
once.
Qingdeng didn't want to dwell on the topic related to his injury for too long. After briefly summarizing his current physical condition, he changed the subject and took the initiative to change the subject in another direction.
"Arima-sama, you are here just in time." Aonto said in a half-joking tone, "Here at Jinyido, there is nothing to do except lie down and sleep. I am bored right now. Over there at the training center
Is there any interesting news recently?”
"It's true." As soon as Qingto finished speaking, Inotani took over with a smile, "We just received a rumor today that we don't know whether it is true or not."
"Tachibana-kun, it seems that you will move to the right to become a bandit in Huofu."
