Chapter 593 - The recovery of Dreamcloud Lake
Chapter 593: The recovery of Dreamcloud Lake
In Lin’an city.
Xu Xuan was concocting medicinal herbs as usual.
The bell outside the door rang even though there was no wind.
Two graceful figures appeared behind him.
A fragrance entered his nose.
Xu Xuan didn’t need to turn around to know who it was.
“Miss Bai, Miss Xiao Qing!” he smiled and said, “The two of you are scaring me again…”
“Hehe…” a silver bell-like laughter sounded behind him.
Without even looking, it was definitely Miss Xiao Qing.
“Ling… Mr. Xu…” he heard Miss Xiao Qing say, “What have you thought about the matter that my elder sister told you last time?”
Xu Xuan nodded and turned around.
He looked at the two peerless beauties who quietly appeared behind him. They were peerlessly beautiful and incomparably holy, causing him to feel ashamed of himself.
The green-robed person was charming and beautiful.
The white-robed person was simply a goddess that had walked out from Luoshen.
It could be said that she was like the snow in the drifting wind, so gentle and dreamy!
There was even a trace of compassion and holiness flowing on her brows and skin.
When people looked at her, they would only feel admiration for her. There was absolutely no intention of blasphemy.
But in her heart…
Xu Xuan was the same from the beginning. He had an extremely intimate feeling towards these two powerful and beautiful women.
It was as if they were familiar with each other in their previous lives, but it was also as if they were fated to be together in this life.
Occasionally, she would dream about it in the middle of the night. Xu Xuan would even dream that he was born and grew up in a strange and magnificent world.
Bai Suzhen would also appear in his dreams.
However, the dream was blurry and he could only remember the general picture.
After waking up from the dream, everything was empty and he only had a vague impression.
Thinking of this, Xu Xuan cupped his hands towards the two women and said, “Ladies, you have great abilities and are merciful to the world…”
“Since you think so highly of me, how would I dare to decline?!”
“However, I am lacking in knowledge and I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to take on a big responsibility!”
Bai Suzhen covered her mouth and smiled. In an instant, the entire medicine hall seemed to be filled with peach blossoms. They were bright and brilliant, “Ping… hmm… Mr. Xu, you don’t have to worry!”
“What’s more important is your sincerity!”
“And in the whole city, there is no one who is more sincere in helping others than you!”
“If Mr. Xu refuses repeatedly, I’m afraid that you are not being modest! You would be harming others!”
“You must know that more than a million people are waiting to be fed inside and outside Lin’an.”
“The helpless women and children by the roadside, the poor orphans on their beds, are struggling all the time
“You must know that hundreds of thousands of people die every day because they lack medical treatment!”
Bai Suzhen’s words were gentle and full of compassion.
In Xu Xuan’s heart, he could easily picture the tragic scenes of life and death.
He remembered that a few days ago when he passed by the West Lake, he saw the soldiers and families living in tents by the West Lake.
His eyes darkened.
Since Long Xing’s Northern Expedition failed, the Zhao and Song families gave money and land for the sake of their reputation.
After the defeated Northern Expedition army returned to Lin’an, they immediately faced an extremely miserable reality!
The injured soldiers could not be treated.
As for the widows of the deceased, they lost their pillar of support.
Countless women had no choice but to go to the railing to make a living for their families.
Even more so, countless young women had to sell themselves to merchants for three meals in their homes. They called themselves adopted daughters, but in reality, they were slaves.
Thinking of this, Xu Xuan knew that he could not decline anymore.
He said, “Since the two ladies have praised me, I can only do my best!”
As a doctor, it was his dream to help the world and the people.
Unfortunately…
“Studying medicine can’t save anybody!” this thought appeared in his mind.
When this thought flashed through his mind, Xu Xuan understood a lot of things.
Therefore, that day, Xu Xuan found the shopkeeper of this medicine shop and expressed his attitude of setting up his own shop.
The next day, a pharmacy called Baozhi Hall opened in Lin’an City.
As soon as the pharmacy opened, people from all walks of life in Lin’an came to congratulate it.
The visiting cards were piled up in front of the door like a small mountain.
The young Xu Xuan became the owner of the pharmacy.
Subsequently, he recruited and hired a large number of doctors and apprentices and started to give away free medicine and treat patients at a fair price throughout Lin’an.
Baozhi Hall was like a mountain of gold and silver.
Within a month of its opening, hundreds of thousands of doses of medicine were administered, and tens of thousands of patients were treated at affordable prices.
Within two months, Lin’an was omniscient both inside and outside. It could be said that tens of thousands of Buddhas were born!
Within three months, Baozhi Hall had developed into a behemoth that employed thousands of doctors, pharmacists, and tens of thousands of apprentices.
It even gave birth to something like the People’s Mutual Aid Association.
It recruited a large number of poor people from the bottom of the society and organized them into groups and taught the poor people life skills. It also imparted knowledge to the children of the common people.
In a short period of time, their fame spread all over the world.
Even in the country Fusang, there was a legend about Baozhi Hall.
Xu Xuan’s name was even more famous throughout the world.
The entire Lin’an City was organized by them. Everything was orderly.
Half a year later, in Lin’an City, they only heard of Baozhi Hall but didn’t know where it was.
Facing such a situation, the officials of Zhao Song and the imperial court were helpless.
That was because Baozhi Hall was now an unshakable behemoth!
Inside and outside Lin’an City, almost everyone had benefited from Baozhi Hall.
Be it the palace maids, eunuchs, imperial guards, or officials.
Almost all of them were subordinates of the Baozhi Hall or had received favors from the Baozhi Hall.
What was even worse was that…
Something akin to a flood or a ferocious beast had appeared in the Baozhi Hall.
A theory called the republic thought and the great harmony thought gushed out from it.
Everyone was like a dragon and the world was one. There was nothing great about it.
The key was that a systematic, complete, logical, and self-consistent theory and policy had been formed around these two sentences.
The Imperial College had all fallen.
Chen Zhu’s neo-confucianism had both suffered a dimensionless blow.
The old ones tried to fight back.
But all of them suffered the wrath of the heavens!
The literal meaning was also the actual meaning of the wrath of the heavens!
For example, Wang Xing of the Imperial College had just said in the hall, “Xu Xuan is a wolf with wild ambitions, and he will definitely cause great trouble if he misleads people!”.
Just as he said that there was a rumble of thunder.
Wang Xing who was in the main hall, and in front of all the officials, was hacked into ashes.
The eldest son of the official family, Zhao Qi, had a few private conversations with people about Baozhi Hall.
At that time, all the Buddhist halls nearby shook violently.
All the Buddha statues in the imperial palace were shattered.
The three pure ones were bleeding.
The eldest son was scared out of his wits and immediately went to Baozhi Hall to kneel.
At this moment.
The Zhao Song family and the entire imperial court only had one choice left, to be scared!
After all, even the golden men could scare them, let alone something so unpredictable?
And they watched everything from the side.
Li An’an and Chu Weiwei were both overjoyed.
“It’s so fun!” Chu Weiwei clapped her hands and said, “The Zhao family members are indeed all cowards. They were scared to death!”
Li An’an smiled and did not say anything. She only looked in the direction of Baozhi Hall and said, “Ping’an’s current body is not ordinary!”
“The things we taught him, he could understand easily!”
“The effect is even far beyond our expectations!”
“I thought that it would take at least a few years to take control of Lin’an. In less than half a year, I have completely succeeded!”
Speaking up to this point, Li An’an could not help but become proud. “As expected of my nephew!”
“Unfortunately…” at this point, Li Anan couldn’t help but sigh again, “Ping’an seems to be unaware of this dream world!”
“Otherwise, if he knew, it would definitely be very fun!”
…
Jiangcheng City.
Ling Ping’an opened his eyes and looked at the night scene outside the door.
Thick fog was coming from all directions.
“I was so busy playing games with my aunt that I almost missed my official business!” he smiled as he got up from his bed and walked to the balcony.
A shooting star was flying above the fog.
Another mountain in the world of mountains and seas was approaching the orbit of this world.
It was about to fall.
That was… the mountain of Dongting!
Where the goddess lived!
Therefore, gold accumulated on the top, and silver was buried under the bottom.
Gurgling divine water flowed under the mountain.
It stirred up countless wind and waves and created a thousand-foot-long giant wave!
Not only that… there was also a divine mountain that was following them.
Wrong!
Ling Ping’an looked at the faintly discernible mountain that had been shattered into pieces.
Mount Di!
Ling Ping’an knew that it was Mount Di.
And it was the mountain of the great empress!
There was once a female Celestial Emperor who lived on it.
Mount Jade!
It was where the Queen Mother of the West lived!
Ling Ping’an looked at it and stretched out his hand to wrap around Mount Di.
This mountain had long been shattered.
Even the ley lines had been torn apart. Only a little bit of life remained in the hinterland of the mountain range.
Normally, without tens of thousands of years of nourishment, it was impossible to recover.
But…
“This mountain is just right for aunt as a birthday present!”
As Ling Ping’an spoke, he gently held Mount Di and put it into his bag.
As for Mount Dongting, Ling Ping’an guided it to slowly enter the orbit of this world and adjust its speed.
At midnight, in the land of Jinghu, the stars fell like rain.
The patrolling fishery administration staff in Dongting Lake looked up and saw countless meteors falling from the sky.
Gurgle!
Gurgle!
Dongting Lake began to boil.
Faintly, an ancient sad tune came from the lake.
The surface of the lake began to slowly expand into the surroundings.
Soon, the satellites of the Federal Empire discovered the changes in Dongting Lake.
The ones who were faster than the satellites were the local Blackguard staff.
Almost at the start of the Starfall, the entire Jinghu region began to mobilize.
After the Starfall incident at Mount Kunlun, the Blackguard had already formulated countless plans.
Dongting Lake was the area that they were most concerned about and paid the most attention to.
This was because, regardless of whether it was a legend or history, it was recorded that there was once a huge lake that stretched for countless miles and was a hundred times the size of Dongting Lake — Dreamcloud Lake!
Now, Dreamcloud Lake had recovered!
Fortunately, because of the recovery of Spirit Aura, Dongting Lake and its surrounding area had long been classified as a “Federal Empire’s national nature reserve” and a “key wetland protection unit”.
The population had long since migrated in large numbers.
Now, as soon as Starfall appeared.
The Jinghu area was immediately mobilized.
The satellite data and the Blackguard’s investigation were combined, and the evacuation plan was quickly formulated.
Within half a month, hundreds of thousands of households that might have been submerged were relocated.
This batch of migrants was immediately warmly welcomed by the Beizhou, Nanzhou, and Xisong Kingdom.
Especially Xisong Kingdom.
They directly set out the policy of giving villas, land and, pasture.
