The Artifact Forger from the Beginning of Collapse

"You must be Master Fu Xuan from the Imperial Divination Bureau, right? Would you like me to take your pulse and check your health?" Chen Li suddenly asked.

"Okay." Fu Xuan, as if possessed, placed his wrist on the small pillow in front of Chen Li.

Chen Li placed his fingers on Fu Xuan's meridians, pondered for a moment, and then blurted out, "You have kidney deficiency."

"???" by Fu Xuan.

Bai Lu, who was sitting next to her, slapped herself in the face.

Again.

81

Chapter 81 Fu Xuan: From today onwards, Chen Li, you are an intern at the Taibu Division!

"Lord Taibu, please don't confiscate my alchemist's license!" Chen Li cried out, clinging to Fu Xuan's white-stockinged thigh.

"You quack! What good is this alchemist's license?" Fu Xuan was furious.

I have kidney deficiency? Are you serious?

"A tonic! I need this certificate to walk my path as a doctor," Chen Li cried.

"Still want to continue being a quack doctor? Show me your business license, I'll confiscate it too!"

"Huh, a business license?" Chen Li was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look at Bai Lu.

Do I have this?

"What? You're operating without a license?" Fu Xuan's voice suddenly rose.

Meanwhile, Bai Lu huddled to the side, intently eating her lollipop.

Bai Lu thought that if Chen Li got into trouble, he might take all her snacks back, so Bai Lu decided to get rid of all the snacks before Chen Li got into serious trouble.

"Uh, Lord Taibu, please spare me again, otherwise I won't even be able to afford food. Actually, Lord Taibu, I do know medicine, but the medicine I studied is surgery. However, as you know, the people of the Immortal Ship have the strongest rejection reaction to surgery." Chen Li clung to Fu Xuan's leg and refused to let go.

Chen Li is indeed skilled in medicine. His Immortal Boat Medical Skill level has reached level three, and he can use the allocated skill points to reach level 10 at any time.

But Chen Li didn't do that; his main goal was to extract a term.

He's obsessed with considering whether, if he accumulates enough "rich points" by treating kidney deficiency, it's possible to extract a "kidney deficiency" entry from this matter.

If we create a miraculous product that can make anyone suffer from kidney deficiency, wouldn't we be invincible?

“That’s true… But wait, what if your indiscriminate use of drugs causes any hidden harm to those non-human beings? Wouldn’t that damage the reputation of the Immortal Ship?” After being persuaded for a moment, Fu Xuan quickly remembered this matter.

"I tell everyone I meet that they have kidney deficiency, and my medicine does indeed treat kidney deficiency. Even people who don't have kidney deficiency won't suffer any harm from taking it. And I don't charge any money," Chen Li explained.

"Really?" Fu Xuan glanced at it, while Chen Li, who was clinging to his leg, glanced at Bai Lu again.

"That's true." Bai Lu nodded.

Although Bai Lu likes to eat snacks, she still has the self-discipline of a doctor and would definitely not stand by and watch Chen Li cheat people, unless Chen Li really gives them away for free.

"Then why do you run this business? What are you after?" Fu Xuan asked, puzzled.

"Speaking of which, Lord Taibu, you might not believe me, but I like to hear people call me a divine doctor."

"……That's it?"

“That’s not all, but it’s also an important reason.” Chen Li nodded.

"Anything else? Tell me everything. Then I'll consider whether or not to return the certificate to you." Fu Xuan looked down at Chen Li.

"I want to do something big, something earth-shattering. I want to please the Emperor Bow Master and bring him victory against the Abundance!"

"What does this have to do with you giving away medicine for free here?"

"Uh, I was thinking that the definition of a bountiful destiny is selfless healing and altruism, right? There are so many people outside the realm of civilization, there must be some with kidney deficiency. I keep healing them until the God of Bounty thinks I have potential and comes to bless me. Wouldn't it be perfect for the God of Destiny to kill Him?" Chen Li explained.

"..." Chen Li's words held Fu Xuan captive for half a minute.

are you serious?

He means it.

"How did you receive the blessing of the Venerable Master of Broad Knowledge?" Fu Xuan was completely baffled by this.

With your thought process... could it be that the God of Wisdom only glanced at you because he thought you were too eccentric?

"What do you think?" Chen Li asked in return.

Fu Xuan suddenly sensed that the power of wisdom and destiny was surging within Chen Li again.

"..."

Fu Xuan suddenly remembered that the Doctor never gave answers, only questions.

The reason I gained insight was because the other party did not answer my question, but only gave me the perspective to see the problem.

"What you received from the God of Wisdom, could it be a blessing from the Venerable One of Universal Knowledge, whereby not answering other people's questions or asking others questions will result in receiving a blessing?" Fu Xuan asked incredulously.

"Hey, how do you know?"

"...What can this blessing give you?" Fu Xuan asked, though he was starting to lose his composure.

"It will make me read and learn any knowledge faster. In other words, it will make me even more of a genius," Chen Li said quite honestly.

In fact, Chen Li didn't find the blessing difficult to guess.

“…You should give up being a doctor,” Fu Xuan suddenly said.

"Ugh, I've been clinging to you for so long, can't you just give me a break?"

"Come and intern at the Temple. We at the Temple are in dire need of someone like you."

"Huh?" Chen Lizhen hadn't expected this development.

Actually, before Fu Xuan, Chen Li had also encountered Yunqi Army checking his business license, but he was always stopped and dealt with with merit coins.

Business license? Danshu is applying for it, but it hasn't been issued yet.

When it was Fu Xuan's turn, Chen Li originally planned to further refine his character, but he didn't expect it to develop into this situation.

"It's decided then. You come with me, and I won't report you to the Earthly Balance Division for operating without a license, nor will I hold you accountable to the Chief Alchemist, Dan Shu, how about it?" Fu Xuan said.

When Fu Xuan's words reached Chen Li's ears, they automatically translated into this: Chen Li, you don't want your Dan Ding Si's chief alchemist to be held accountable because of you, do you?

"Well... but I don't know how to do divination," Chen Li said honestly.

“It’s alright, I’ll teach you,” Fu Xuan said.

Fu Xuan didn't believe anyone would be noticed by the God of Wisdom just because they were argumentative. Fu Xuan felt that Chen Li must have some extraordinary qualities, such as Chen Li's innate intelligence and his desire to get to the bottom of things and seek answers.

This is also one of the excellent qualities of the diviners.

"Speaking of which, if I were to intern at the Tabuan, how long would it take to become a full-time employee?"

“Other diviners may need 3 to 10 years, but you will only need one year at most. But if you follow me and learn even a fraction of my skills, you can become a full-fledged diviner immediately,” Fu Xuan said confidently.

"..."

Which companies offer a proper internship period of 3 to 10 years?

Even Interstellar Peace Corporation wouldn't dare to be this shady.

It can only be said that it truly deserves to be called an immortal species.

"So? Do you agree? If you agree, I'll return this certificate to you." Fu Xuan tossed the certificate that belonged to Chen Li in his hand.

"Okay, but I have a request."

"What are the requirements?" Fu Xuan asked.

"I can learn from you, but you don't need to worry about how long I study. You don't need to worry about when I get off work or what I do after get off work."

"Huh?" Fu Xuan's eyes widened.

“But I guarantee that within a year, I can become a qualified diviner. Within 10 years, I will surpass you,” Chen Li said.

“Interesting. Okay, I agree. But if you haven’t become a qualified diviner after a year, then you’ll have to accept my tutoring.” Fu Xuan didn’t care about a year, because for a long-lived species, it was not much longer than 10 days.

"Deal. So, Your Excellency, could you please return my professional certificate to me first?"

"Let go of my legs, they're almost numb from being held so tightly." Moreover, the commotion had drawn in more and more people, and Fu Xuan was starting to feel overwhelmed.

"Oh."

"Please wait a moment, I will have someone bring some instructional books suitable for novice readers." Fu Xuan returned Chen Li's certificate to him after seeing him sit back down at the stall.

"Alright. Then, Your Excellency, could you please move aside slightly? Or sit in the seat next to me? Please don't disturb me while I'm treating other patients."

"..."

What you call seeing a doctor?

Fu Xuan originally wanted to say that, but considering the agreement he had made with Chen Li, he held back.

Then Fu Xuan sat to the side and watched Chen Li repeatedly mention kidney deficiency to the curious outsiders, and after hearing them repeatedly call him a divine doctor, he began to worry about the current employment situation of alchemists in the Dan Ding Si.

However, what Fu Xuan didn't notice was that Chen Li's remarks would occasionally provoke those outsiders.

However, before the other party could roll up their sleeves, Chen Li had already chosen to pay to avoid further trouble.

Praise for lofty morality...truly admirable!
