Supreme Divine Physician in the City-Chapter 720: Emergency Rescue

At 11 o’clock at night, a silver-gray van, with two piercing high beams gleaming, drove up from the path ahead.

Soon after, the vehicle stopped on the empty space outside the chicken farm, the door of the vehicle opened, and a gaunt man stepped out.

He opened the rear door of the van and lifted an unconscious young woman from the back seat, carrying her toward the inside of the chicken farm.

As he reached the main door of the building, he had just taken one step inside when he hesitated briefly, taking the bag hanging from the woman’s shoulder and leaving it at the entrance.

With a slight upturn of his mouth, he walked into the building.

The man entering the chicken farm went straight to a building in the very center.

After advancing a few steps, an "L"-shaped corridor appeared ahead, and following the corridor, the man turned into a room on the right side of the building.

He shut the door, placed the woman on a nearby armchair, and walked over to the bed, lifting up the quilt and moving a movable wooden board in the middle of the bed.

After lifting the board, a hidden world was revealed; beneath the bed was a staircase made of bluestone leading underground—clearly, there was a basement!

The gaunt man picked up the woman again, stepped through under the bed, and made his way down the staircase to the basement.

Upon descending, the basement didn’t feel damp; on the contrary, it was quite dry and spacious, adorned with five or six counters resembling those in Ancient Medicine.

On the counters were various medicinal ingredients and concoctions, as well as jars containing alcohol preserved with various Poisonous Insects and ferocious animals. There were also items that couldn’t be identified by the naked eye, all shrouded in mystery.

Not far ahead was a simple recliner, on which reclined an old man with white hair and beard, likely in his seventies or eighties.

The old man had an aged face and his skin was as shriveled as dead wood—if one wasn’t observant, they might think he was a mummified corpse!

Especially given the eerie environment of the basement, it was particularly unsettling, chilling to the core, both spooky and terrifying.

At this moment, the gaunt man, carrying the unconscious Sun Xiaomeng, quickly approached the old man, respectfully saying, "Father, I have brought another nourishment for you. Would you like to partake now?" ƒreewebɳovel.com

The corpse-like old man was none other than the Ice Demon Elder who had been severely injured by Ye Xuan and had nearly died.

And this gaunt man was one of the orphans adopted by the Ice Demon Elder named Gui Qi.

Of course, the Ice Demon Elder didn’t just adopt him; he adopted many orphans, nominally his foster sons and daughters, but in reality, they were his servants.

The recent case of young girls aging was undoubtedly orchestrated by him!

The Ice Demon Elder opened his eyes, glanced at the unconscious Sun Xiaomeng, and indifferently asked, "How old is this girl?"

"Father, this girl is already over twenty. It’s been tough finding virgins aged seventeen or eighteen in this area, as we have already brought them all! It’s becoming very hard to find more, and only the slightly older ones are left."

Gui Qi expressed helplessly.

"Never mind, a bit older doesn’t matter; the yin energy won’t diminish by much. Put her down."

The Ice Demon Elder furrowed his brow and then waved his hand at Gui Qi.

"Yes, Father!"

Gui Qi responded, laying Sun Xiaomeng on the wooden bed nearby, then turned to leave the basement.

However, he seemed to remember something, organized his words carefully, and cautiously said to the Ice Demon Elder, "Father, I’ve noticed Jiu Mei recently hasn’t been feeling well, so I was thinking of taking her out for some fresh air. It wouldn’t be good for her to stay cooped up in her room all day."

"Hmm? It’s nearly dawn. What air are you going out to breathe now?" the Ice Demon Elder frowned and asked.

"Exactly because it’s night, it’s cooler outside. During the day it would be too hot, wouldn’t taking her out expose her to too much sun?"

Gui Qi found an excuse and said calmly.

"Alright, then take her out," the Ice Demon elder waved his hand and agreed.

"Thank you, foster father!"

Gui Qi expressed his thanks, then strode out of the basement.

Following the stairs back up to the surface, Gui Qi carefully replaced the wooden plank, was about to put the mattress back on when his eyes suddenly flashed.

He walked over to a table, picked up a glass, then inverted it over the movable wooden plank, and completely pulled back the bedding on the bed!

Having done all this, Gui Qi did not stay a moment longer and quickly left the room, heading to another room not far across.

In this room, the setup was the same as the previous one, with a wooden bed; however, there now lay a figure on the bed.

"Jiumei."

Upon entering the room, Gui Qi gently called out to the figure on the bed, his eyes tenderly fixed on her.

From her attire, she was clearly a young girl, but her face was abnormally aged, resembling a woman in her sixties or seventies, her cheeks covered with wrinkles.

This woman’s symptoms were almost exactly like those of Wang Dandan previously seen in the hospital, severely aged in appearance.

"I’ve come, let’s go out for a walk!" Gui Qi said softly as he approached the bedside.

"Qi... Qi-ge! With my appearance now, I don’t want to go out..." Jiumei looked sorrowful, shook her head, and spoke in a very weak voice.

"No, no matter what you say, today you must come out with me!" Gui Qi said firmly.

Then, feeling his tone might have been too harsh, he softened his voice, lifted Jiumei from the bed, and said gently, "Listen to me, the air is nice outside tonight, I’ll take you out to breathe some fresh air, it will be good for your recovery."

With that, Gui Qi, without further ado, lifted Jiumei and quickly left the room.

Upon reaching the van parked outside the factory, Gui Qi opened the passenger door, placed Jiumei inside, and fastened her seatbelt.

Then, he closed the door, returned to the driver’s seat, started the vehicle, and rapidly left the area!

As Gui Qi left with Jiumei, in the underground basement of the factory,

the Ice Demon elder stood before a counter, picked up a small porcelain item, then from other shelves, gathered various bottles and jars.

Holding these bottles, the Ice Demon elder walked to a table in the middle of the basement and began to tinker with something.

Meanwhile!

As the Ice Demon elder was busy, several kilometers away on a country road leading to the factory, Ye Xuan and others were driving a Hummer, rushing towards the location.

"There are seven kilometers to the target location, turn right ahead, then go straight," Yang Shan said from the back seat, looking at the computer screen and issuing the latest navigation updates.

"Five kilometers to the target location..."

"Three kilometers to the target location..."

"One kilometer to the target location... Turn left in 500 meters, continue straight, then drive 300 meters more, and you will reach the target location!"
