Qiu Zu: From an apprentice in a medicine shop to an immortal ancestor.

Hearing Wu Chuanfeng's words, Qiu Zhen suddenly understood the real reason why the Demon Suppression Division was looking for him this time.

Probably, asking about "demons and evil spirits" was just an incidental matter.

After all, a Yin God expert concealing their aura and disguising themselves to seek medical treatment must have made thorough preparations.

He was only a small martial artist in the Houtian realm on the surface, how could he see through any clues?

The Demon Suppression Division probably didn't think in this direction at all, suspecting Qiu Zhen.

This message was just a casual attempt, killing two birds with one stone.

It would be good to get some clues, but if not, the people of the Demon Suppression Division wouldn't be surprised either. Their real main purpose was to invite him to treat evil.

The aura of evil demons not only invades ordinary people, but also Taoist cultivators and martial artists are not immune.

Martial artists have a strong and vigorous Qi and blood, which is masculine and domineering, capable of warding off evil and suppressing the aura of evil demons, protecting the body and saving lives, and will not be easily infected by the Qi of evil demons like ordinary people.

Ordinary martial artists generally do not have this kind of trouble.

The Demon Suppression Division is different.

Their daily routine is dealing with all kinds of demons and evil spirits, and they will encounter the aura of evil demons from time to time.

Although martial artists have strong Qi and blood, they are not easily infected by the Qi of evil demons. Even if they are infected, they can suppress it with their vigorous Qi and blood and martial arts fist techniques. However, over time, there will still be stubborn remnants of evil demon Qi, lurking in the body, becoming a "chronic disease" that is difficult to eradicate.

Being entangled by the aura of evil demons is detrimental to martial arts practice.

In the future, martial arts will stagnate, and when they get old and their Qi and blood decline, the "chronic disease" caused by the evil demon Qi in the past will erupt.

This is considered the "occupational disease" of the Demon Suppression Division's martial artists.

Of course, it's not that there are no doctors who can cure it.

However, those who can cure this kind of "chronic disease" formed by the aura of evil demons are mostly famous doctors, and the martial artists of the Demon Suppression Division cannot afford to hire them.

The monthly salary of the Demon Suppression Division's martial artists is not low, but there are also many places to spend money. How can they afford to hire famous doctors?

Only Qiu Zhen, who is currently unknown and not very strong, suppressed the demonic thoughts of a "Yin God expert" with one move.

According to the saying of the previous life, inviting him to see a doctor is extremely cost-effective.

"I never expected that the first business would come like this."

Qiu Zhen sorted out the cause and effect, and suddenly felt a little dumbfounded.

He thought that the Demon Suppression Division coming to his door was a troublesome matter, but he didn't expect it to be a good thing.

The old man Yuan Hua is really a good person. He not only gave him the "Immortal Martial Arts", allowing him to obtain the top-grade Houtian root bone 【Golden Tendons and Jade Bones】, but also indirectly advertised for him, introducing a big business.

Qiu Zhen didn't hesitate much and immediately said:

"Captain Wu and all the brothers of the Demon Suppression Division think highly of me. I am naturally happy to see a doctor, but I am afraid that my medical skills are shallow and I cannot bear the heavy responsibility."

After speaking, Qiu Zhen pondered for a moment and said:

"Why doesn't Captain Wu call someone over? While the sun hasn't set yet, I will exorcise evil for him and see if it meets the expectations of Captain Wu and the brothers of the Demon Suppression Division."

"Very good!"

Wu Chuanfeng was overjoyed. He only heard about the evil demons and heretics during the review process and was not sure about Qiu Zhen's medical skills, so he was a little uneasy.

After all, inviting a doctor is not paid for by him alone, but subsidized by the Demon Suppression Division, plus the money pooled together by the brothers from their own pockets.

If something goes wrong, it will be difficult to explain.

Seeing Qiu Zhen being so understanding and taking the initiative to mention it, his goodwill towards Qiu Zhen greatly increased.

"Why don't you give me acupuncture first, sir? I last exorcised evil in the capital, and I have long felt stagnation in my body when exercising, and there are many discomforts."

"Okay!"

Qiu Zhen nodded slightly, asked him to sit down, and immediately took his pulse and diagnosed his illness.

Speaking of which, it is rumored that 【Heavenly Eye Vision】can see through the human body when cultivated to a high level, and can see the patient's lesions at a glance.

He doesn't have this ability right now, but with his powerful divine sense, he is much better than ordinary doctors by relying on observation, listening, questioning, and palpation.

After some diagnosis, Qiu Zhen was confident and asked Wu Chuanfeng to take off his clothes and gave him acupuncture on the spot.

The "chronic diseases" of these Demon Suppression Division martial artists are very troublesome.

First, it is difficult to find the lesion, which requires rich experience;

Second, even if it is found, it is difficult to completely cure and expel it.

Houtian realm doctors, such as shopkeeper Liu who has completed Houtian Refining Himself, find it difficult to completely cure even if they use the 【Taiyi Exorcism Acupuncture】.

But Qiu Zhen is quite confident.

Today, following Apothecary An to practice martial arts and comprehending 【True Yang Appears】, he can not only use it in saber techniques and martial arts, but also in treating diseases and exorcising evil.

"Swish swish swish ~"

Qiu Zhen applied the needles quickly and steadily.

In just a few dozen breaths, Wu Chuanfeng had dozens of silver needles on his body.

The Demon Suppression Division martial artists probably heard about this. Before long, a group of people gathered in the room, looking curious.

However, the curiosity, scrutiny, and even doubt on everyone's faces did not last long.

The reason is that not long after Qiu Zhen applied the needles, a faint black air rose from Wu Chuanfeng's back.

"The demonic energy has been pulled out, so fast!"

Martial artist Ye exclaimed and quickly held the incense burner, placed it aside, and used the fragrance to cooperate with the scorching sun to extinguish the black air.

In the courtyard, the martial artists were pleasantly surprised to see black air coming out of their captain's body. There was obviously a bit more respect in their eyes when they looked at Qiu Zhen.

"Sir is so amazing. I feel that he is even more amazing than the great doctor in Changle Prefecture."

"That's right. We are not just country farmers who occasionally feel demonic energy. The evil demonic energy in our bodies is hidden deep, but it is so effective so quickly."

"Sir is a great talent. He is worthy of being Little Miracle Doctor Qiu!"

"What Little Miracle Doctor? Mr. Qiu is a Great Miracle Doctor!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

About a quarter of an hour later.

"Sir's medical skills are really amazing."

Wu Chuanfeng put on his armor and felt comfortable all over. His face was full of joy:

"Those brats are right. Sir's medical skills are even better than those of the great doctor in Changle Prefecture."

"Captain Wu is too kind."

Qiu Zhen smiled, leisurely drinking tea, without taking the initiative to mention the consultation fee, waiting for the other party to take the initiative to speak.

"Not at all."

Wu Chuanfeng was very sure. After speaking, he paused and said:

"With sir's medical skills, it would cost thousands of taels a year to invite you to see a doctor in Changle Prefecture. It's just that the brothers have just moved to Qingmu and are short of money. I don't know if six hundred taels a year can ask sir to help."

Six hundred taels a year!

Qiu Zhen was overjoyed. It was indeed a big business.

There are two ways to invite a doctor.

One is to temporarily invite someone to see a doctor, and the consultation fee is paid on the spot each time.

The other is the "annual salary system", which is generally used by wealthy families and big merchants to invite doctors. During the New Year and holidays, they send annual gifts and provide long-term medical care for a large family or a certain chamber of commerce.

The six hundred taels a year that Wu Chuanfeng said is the latter.

Qiu Zhen had inquired about the relevant information from shopkeeper Liu and vaguely knew a little.

Speaking of which, the "chronic diseases" of the Demon Suppression Division martial artists caused by the aura of evil demons are very troublesome. Ordinary doctors cannot cure them. The cost of inviting this level of doctor to see a doctor in the prefecture city is not low. It is very common to charge ten taels of silver for one consultation per person.

An annual salary of one thousand taels is normal.

But now, Wu Chuanfeng's offer of six hundred taels a year is indeed a bit low.

Qiu Zhen knew this, but he did not bargain and was very straightforward:

"The brothers of the Demon Suppression Division protect the territory and secure the people. I have seen it with my own eyes. Well, I will take this matter."

"Sir is a benevolent doctor. I thank you on behalf of the brothers of the Demon Suppression Division."

Crude martial artists have a rough temper, and the martial artists of the Demon Suppression Division are even more accustomed to being domineering.

However, if they can catch their eye, then the situation will be different.

With a set of exorcism acupuncture, the martial artists of the Demon Suppression Division completely lost the rudeness in the outside world and treated Qiu Zhen with great respect, with honey smeared on everyone's mouths.

Qiu Zhen left the Demon Suppression Division, and the martial artists sent him out the door. Someone even brought him a horse, treating him with courtesy.

"Giddy up!"

The horse galloped on the official road.

Bai Zhu, who had been silent, transmitted his voice with his divine sense:

"Young master, are we considered to be recruited?"

"I guess so!"

Qiu Zhen laughed heartily and was in a good mood.

Six hundred taels of silver is not a huge sum of money for him now. The most important thing is that it is of great significance to establish a relationship with the Demon Suppression Division.

Fairy Yun Rou has great power and can inquire about the news of the Demon Suppression Division. This is the convenience brought by her natural wealthy background. He cannot learn it.

However, if the upper route is blocked, taking the route of the Demon Suppression Division martial artists is also a good route.

Even a martial arts grandmaster, or even the legendary Martial Saint, is not omnipotent. Big and small matters have to be carried out by the people below. The mainstay of the Demon Suppression Division is this group of martial artists.

He treats the martial artists of the Demon Suppression Division for exorcism and treatment. If the relationship is good in the future, it will be of great benefit to him.

Not to mention anything else, Wu Chuanfeng may have heard that a monster took the initiative to join and follow Qiu Zhen. He immediately recognized Bai Zhu as a monster, and then said that he could help Qiu Zhen obtain a quota for a 【Monster Beast Token】.

Holding a nameplate means that the monster has an owner, is humane, and can walk in the territory of the human race.

This kind of 【Monster Beast Token】is quite rare. Generally, it is not easy to buy even if you have money. Only government offices like the Demon Suppression Division can provide convenience.

"Giddy up!"

Qiu Zhen drove his horse back to Xiangyang Village, straight to the Qiu residence, intending to see how his father and elder brother were doing with the recruitment.

However, as soon as he entered the yard, his expression changed slightly.

Awakening his primordial spirit, with his powerful divine sense, he keenly noticed something was wrong.

Heart palpitations, primordial spirit warning...

"Why are there suddenly powerful people at home?"
