Chapter Six: I Will Forever Believe in the Compassionate Medicine King

beep—

The lie detector emitted a low, piercing alarm.

Su Jinyan felt extremely uncomfortable: "Um, Miss Qingque, is this thing broken?"

“The compassionate Medicine King shines as brightly as the sun and moon in my heart. My loyalty to Him is as clear as heaven and earth, and I have no other thoughts.”

beep—

Qingque: "..."

Su Jinyan: "..."

He never expected that this lie detector jade omen would be so accurate.

Qingque rubbed her temples and said reproachfully, "Sir, you really know how to joke."

"Although the Immortal Boat Alliance does not discriminate against those who believe in the God of Longevity and Plague, the Immortal Boat Alliance also has its own political correctness."

"If you truly believe in the ancestral plague, then being a junior diviner is fine, but getting promoted later will be difficult."

"Furthermore, even the lowest level of classified information will not be allowed to be accessed by the followers of the God of Longevity and Plague."

Su Jinyan paused for a moment, glanced at Qingque, and then frowned slightly, as if he understood something.

Hmm, something seems to be wrong.

This Miss Qingque doesn't seem to be one of the disciples of the Medicine King. Did the organization make a mistake in its arrangements?

Su Jinyan: "That's right, I was just joking with you. The Compassionate Medicine King? More like the God of Plague and Calamity."

“He holds no place in my heart. Even though I am an outsider, I have no affection for Him whatsoever.”

beep—

Su Jinyan: "Uh, actually, a little bit."

beep—

Su Jinyan shrugged and said, "Alright, I really like the Compassionate Medicine King."

This time, the lie detector finally stopped beeping.

Qingque looked at him suspiciously: "You...you wouldn't actually be a henchman of the Medicine King's secret teachings, would you? Confess!"

Speaking of this, we must mention the abundant followers of the Medicine King's secret teachings, who are not truly believers in the compassionate Medicine King.

They are merely greedy and obsessed with the power and immortality bestowed upon them by the Medicine Master; true believers in the Medicine Master, on the contrary, would reject and loathe those remnants of the Abundance.

Although the Immortal Boat Alliance followed the edict of the Emperor Bow Master, making the elimination of the Longevity Plague Ancestor and its evil creatures its primary objective.

However, the Immortal Boat Alliance will treat the believers of the Longevity Plague Ancestor fairly, protect their lives and property, and uphold their right to fair trade within the Alliance.

The only exception is the [Secret Transmission of the Medicine King]. The [Secret Transmission of the Medicine King] has committed seven of the ten deadly sins, as stipulated in the Ten Kings' Laws.

Leading to the loss of immortality, coveting immortality, luring into demonic possession, slaughtering one's own kind, stealing secrets, sowing discord among allies, and instigating war—these are all sins committed by the secret teachings of the Medicine King.

Therefore, the Immortal Boat Alliance regards the remnants of the [Secret Transmission of the Medicine King] as an object that must be eliminated.

There's a saying that goes: "Confess and you'll be treated leniently, or you'll rot in jail; resist and you'll be punished severely, or you'll be able to go home for the New Year."

If Su Jinyan really confesses, then he can expect to go to jail.

Su Jinyan explained, "I just simply think it's a bit astringent."

Qingque was still suspicious: "Are you really not a henchman of the Medicine King's secret teachings?"

Su Jinyan feigned anger and said, "Hmph, don't lump me in with those remnants of the Fengrao clan. I have absolutely no liking for those guys."

Qingque looked at him hesitantly: "Then you—"

Su Jinyan interrupted, "I just think the pharmacist is good-looking, so I have a good impression of him."

Qingque scratched his head: "Okay, I almost thought someone from the Medicine King's secret lineage had infiltrated the Grand Divination Bureau."

Su Jinyan smiled and said, "Miss Qingque, we may be familiar, but I can still sue you for defamation if you talk nonsense."

Qingque looked at him, puzzled: "Are we that close?"

Su Jinyan smiled, revealing her teeth: "Miss Qingque, don't you think I have a very kind face?"

Qingque pouted: "Alright, stop joking around."

"The next question is quite complicated. It was set by the Grand Diviner, and very few people have been able to answer it correctly so far."

"An incorrect answer or refusal to answer will not affect this assessment."

"But if you answer correctly, it might make it easier to get promoted in the future. Are you ready?"

Su Jinyan: "I'm ready."

Qingque: "There are two people in front of you who are poisoned. If they don't take the antidote, they will surely die within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."

However, you only have one antidote.

One is widely recognized as the top rising star of Luofu for the next thirty years, an unattainable beauty, your senior sister.

At this moment, she was overcome by the poison and could only look at you with her beautiful eyes.

You can't help but recall the past, when you were just an orphan with no one to rely on, and all the disciples in your sect were jealous of you and bullied you.

If it weren't for your senior sister protecting you, you would probably have been killed by them.

Your senior sister is only three years older than you, but she has cared for you like an ordinary mother until you grew up.

When your master became suspicious of you, she knelt at the mountain gate for three days to plead for you.

You were poisoned and lost all your powers, so she searched the world for an antidote to help you recover. Her heartfelt devotion is like a second life.

The other is your childhood sweetheart, who has joined the Medicine King's Secret Sect, harming her compatriots, killing countless people, and rising to become a high-ranking leader of the Medicine King's Secret Sect.

Beneath that beautiful exterior lies a ruthless and decisive nature.

She could no longer see where you were, but she called your name through tears.

You can't help but recall your childhood, sharing the food you begged for with her in a small, dilapidated temple.

The moment the two huddled together for warmth in the heavy snow reminded her of the heart-wrenching cries she had when the man in black kidnapped her.

I recall the torrential rain when we met again fifteen years later, and the promise we made in the small cave to be together forever.

She fell into demonic possession for you, abandoned her parents for you, hoping only to be far from conflict with you and find a peaceful haven.

Your antidote is only enough to save one of them. So, who will you save?

Su Jinyan tapped the table lightly and sneered, "Heh heh heh, how do you think they were poisoned?"

"If I take them down, I'll be the most outstanding genius of the new generation in Luofu."

Qingque: “?”

Su Jinyan clenched his fist: "I was just joking. Whether it's Senior Sister or my childhood sweetheart, I will save them all."

Qingque gently shook her head: "Didn't you understand? Your antidote is only enough to save one of them."

Su Jinyan said seriously, "Miss Qingque, clinical results show that rectal medication is twice as effective as oral medication."

"In other words, I can live up to everyone's expectations."

"If you are unsure about this, you can ask the physicians at Dan Ding Si."

Qingque: “?”

Su Jinyan asked, "Don't you know?"

Qingque's expression was extremely complicated: "I know, but I never expected you to think of this."

Su Jinyan said seriously, "Because I'm used to taking unconventional approaches, let's look at the problem from a different perspective."

"Miss Qingque, does this mean we're just going to waste our time here because the waterway is blocked? Maybe taking the winding path would be more efficient?"

Qingque: "..."

Qingque strongly suspected he was driving, but she had no proof.

Of course, there was another rather hellish thought that Su Jinyan didn't voice.

For example, if you apply the antidote to NEW NEW, whoever has the strongest will to survive will live.

In fact, Qingque knew that this question was a trap designed to test human nature.

Because this is an extremely difficult choice, and no matter who you choose, you will let the other person down.
