Chapter 572

(Unedited)

…

Ragged clothes that barely covered their bodies, strong and sturdy metal chains bounded their hands and feet, and the damp ground covered with only dried hay serves as their bed. What Shin Jiao is looking at are a bunch of slaves being sold at the roadside market.

Ranging from young to old, men and women are being sold like normal goods in front of the people. When Shin Jiao saw the horrible condition of the slaves he was a bit taken aback. Although he had seen some of these kinds of things in the past, he has never observed such a horrible condition just like the slaves in the cages.

They don\'t even look human anymore in their state.

Suddenly Shin Jiao noticed a small boy lying on the ground with his head dropping. From the look of the boy and his scrawny body, Shin Jiao knew that he is barely hanging on his dear life. And soon, as he watches the little boy suddenly fell down and stopped breathing.

He squinted his eyes and suddenly wanted to stand up and ran towards the area. But a person held him down.

"Don\'t… those are slaves. They have been punished by imperial decree and no one should dare save them. Only by buying them and turning them into your own slave can you take them. But of course, not everyone in this city can afford them. These days are hard and many are starving in the streets. Some are even unable to live a good life anymore." Guang Lai He suddenly said as he heaves a heavy sigh.

From his words, Shin Jiao remembers what this guy told him and what had happened to his own family. Guang Lai He is a fallen noble who doesn\'t have any choice but to enter the military just to save his own family. In the end, he still lost his wife and son in the hands of those who wanted his riches. Now he can only live a simple life in some village.

"Sigh… I\'m okay." Shin Jiao said as he sits down and shifted his gaze somewhere.

He dare not look at the little boy and how he would be treated by the slave traders. He could not help but clench his fist in anger.

Not long later the caravan arrives at the military barracks of the city. And the soldiers disembark from the carriages.

Since Shin Jiao was \'wounded\' from the battle he was also sent to this place along with the other soldiers to recuperate from their wounds.

As he enters the barrack\'s infirmary he was greeted by a pungent smell of medicinal decoction and the smell of human blood coupled with other kinds of smell. Shin Jiao knew that he would encounter this scene as these people are just normal human beings. Unlike cultivators and mages who don\'t have impurities in their bodies, normal human beings have a very distinct smell in their bodies.

He carefully checked the infirmary and noticed the busy doctors treating the patients followed by their assistants.

Suddenly, a soldier shouted from somewhere inside the building.

"Someone died here! We need to clean this place now!" shouted the soldier.

The doctor\'s assistants immediately rush towards the area and immediately drag the corpse and wrapped the bloody blanket while throwing it to the side. Upon seeing this, Shin Jiao shook his head and continue observing the whole infirmary building. He noticed that not only the soldiers in the front line were wounded are inside the building but also some people wearing a different kind of uniform and armor.

"Hey, why are there many patients today?" asked shin Jiao to the person who looks like a doctor\'s assistant.

"Huh? You\'re not from around here, aren\'t you? Oh, maybe you\'re from the front lines… well let me tell you. The reason for this is because of the bandit\'s raid."

"Bandits?"

"Yeah, two days ago a village in the outskirts were reported to have been attacked and no one was left alive in the village. The city soldiers were immediately dispatched to handle the situation, who would have known that they would suffer great defeat upon discovering that the numbers have more people than the soldiers?"

"Oh, so they were defeated then?"

"Haha… almost. However, the great captain of the city guards came to the rescue. He was really skilled and many who saw his fight against the bandits praises him for his bravery and skill."

"…"

Shin Jiao just listened and the doctor\'s assistant talks and talk revealing a lot of things to Shin Jiao.

Suddenly someone called him and since Shin Jiao felt the guy be approachable he followed him. The two arrive in a bed with a city guard lying in the bed. Shin Jiao can see that the guard\'s wound on his leg is already festering and is filled with necrotic skin.

Shin Jiao suddenly remembers the past. It was the time when he was taught by a friend to do debridement. It was just his curiosity by he knew that learning this simple surgery to clear out necrotic skin is useful in the battlefield.

And upon learning it, Shin Jiao was able to use it more than once to save his own life and others.

As he watches the slowly blackening skin and the uncomfortable feeling of the soldier lying on the ground, Shin Jiao knew that those necrotic skins should be removed. But he didn\'t want to be high profile so he needed to wait.

"Doctor Di, you called for me?" the assistant asked as he approaches a middle-aged looking doctor with a white beard.

"Umn… Hold him down. I will pour this decoction to his wound." The doctor said while looking at the darkening skin at the soldier\'s leg.

The soldier suddenly has his eyes wide open. How could he not be scared? He is currently looking at a boiling pot of water. Although it is filled with medicinal herbs, the heat alone could cause him severe pain.

When Shin Jiao saw what the doctor is about to do, he was a bit taken aback.

"This guy is crazy…" thought Shin Jiao as he looks at the glowing eyes of the doctor.

In just one look, Shin Jiao knew that this crazy old man is experimenting with a patient. He shook his head and immediately took a step forward.

"Stop! Don\'t do that! It would cause his skin to be burned." Shin Jiao suddenly said blocking the way of the doctor.

When the soldier saw Shin Jiao\'s figure blocking the doctor he suddenly showed a sign of hope in his eyes.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking my path?" the old doctor suddenly growled as if someone just took his lunch away from him.

"Young brother, you…" the assistant\'s face suddenly turned ashen as he didn\'t expect the young man to suddenly stand in front of Doctor Di.

Doctor Di is a famous doctor in Yun Ji City. He has cured many diseases. However, the problem is his way of helping his patients. Although no one can contest his ability, Doctor Di is still famous for making his patients suffer. Hence he was called the Crazy Doctor of Yun Ji City.

"This senior… I just wanted to say that you are going to hurt the patient more if you pour that decoction in his leg while it is still scolding hot. Why not make it a lukewarm before pouring it on his wound?" Shin Jiao said trying to concede with the senior.

"Che! What do you know? I am a doctor, how about you? What are you? And what are you doing in this place? This is no place for anyone to just wander around recklessly. Get out!"

"Senior… I came from the front…"

Before Shin Jiao could finish his words, the old doctor suddenly waves his hand. This is because he did not want to hear Shin Jiao\'s explanation.

"Get out now! I don\'t want you to delay the treatment of my patient."

The angry look on the old man\'s eyes made Shin Jiao felt helpless. However, how could he let this old man do whatever he wanted? But as when he turns his gaze around, he can see the people looking at him with suspicion.

"Wait… Doctor Di… Long time no see… How are you?" suddenly Guang Lai He approaches.

When the old doctor saw him, he showed a pleasant smile.

"Oh, Young Guang… it\'s been a long time. How have you been? Hahaha… It\'s been ages since you last visited this old man." Doctor Di suddenly changes his attitude as he saw Guang Lai He walking towards him.

"Haha… It is nice to see you Doctor Di… Oh, by the way, this is my friend, the young Doctor Qiong Ji."

"Doctor?"

"Yes, he is our medical doctor who has helped us a lot in the front lines. His skill in healing the wounded soldiers is really amazing."

"Really?" Doctor Di suddenly said while raising one of his brows in suspicion.

In his mind, how could there be a young doctor? Most doctors in the empire are already in their 40\'s and older. It is seldom one can see a very young doctor. Hence the middle-aged man felt a bit suspicious of Shin Jiao.

"Haist, you don\'t believe me, here look at this." Guang Lai He suddenly said as he lifted his arm.

He then showed the sutured skin in his arm which has already become dry.

When the middle-aged doctor saw the suture pattern his eyes suddenly lit up. This is because he has never seen such a thing before. In this land, suturing wounds is not a normal thing. Whenever they encounter such wounds, they would usually just bind it up and put some herbs on the wounds and let fate decide on the patient. However, Doctor Di is different. He likes trying new things and likes to experiment.

For this reason, his patients would suffer before they would become better, hence the name crazy doctor.

With glowing eyes, Doctor Di turns his attention towards Shin Jiao and with a grin on his face, he suddenly walked in front of him.

"Do you have a way for the leg of this young soldier to get better?" he asked with a challenging gaze.
