Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 142: Teaching again

”Please come get yourself treated at Physician Ningʼs Treatment House. Donʼt bother going to those frauds in the market, Doctor Ning can treat anyone for a very cheap price.”

”Come, Come, Get treated right now.”

Anya was doing her best to gather patients for Ning, but it just wasnʼt happening. Half a day had gone by but no one bothered looking towards his shop.

But he wasnʼt worried. ”Anya, come back. You donʼt have to keep shouting,” he said.

”Huh? But doctor Ning, if I donʼt shout, how will they know to come here?” she asked and went back to shouting out.

Finally, a person came to visit. It was an old man whose legs seemed to be having some problems. He limped his way to Ning and asked, ”I-is it true that you donʼt take a lot of money?”

Ning nodded and said, ”I only take the price of ingredients and a little more for service. I do not take anything else,” he said.

The man was still skeptical but he decided to take the chance. ”I got bit by something in the sea yesterday in my right leg. I did not know if it is poisonous or not, seeing as I have lived until today, it probably is not. However, ever since yesterday, I have been slowly losing movement on my right leg.”

”It still feels everything pretty clearly, but the movement is kind of hard now,” the old man said.

”Hmm…” Ning looked at the manʼs legs and started checking them. On his lower thigh, there was a small cut that was surrounded by skins that had been turned purple, violet, and pink.

”Ah, I see,” Ning said in realization.

”It seems you were bit by a Tricolored Octopus. You actually donʼt have to do anything, as the bite is not poisonous and will only make your legs unmovable for a few days, after which it will go away on its own.”

”However, if you do want to cure it immediately, I will get some ingredients from the market right now and treat you. It should cost you about 1 gold coin and 4 silver coins,” Ning said.

”Wait, wait!” the man said. ”Will I really be healed if I donʼt treat it at all?” he asked.

”Yes, the toxin in your legs will get washed in a few days and you will be okay,” Ning said.

”Um… how many days might it take?” the man asked.

”Hmm… Tricolored rainbow stings usually last for 5 days. Since itʼs been about 2 days now, you should be able to move your legs in 2 more days, and on the 3rd day, you will be able to move it quite well,” Ning said.

”I-If that is so then can I not take the treatment?” the man asked.

”Of course, if that is what you want then you can do that,” Ning said.

”Umm… how much will I have to pay you now?” the man asked.

”You can pay me 1 silver coin for the diagnosis,” Ning said.

”Ah, only 1 silver coin?” the man was surprised and hastily took out the silver coin and paid before leaving. He was afraid of Ning suddenly changing his mind.

Ning smiled looking at the man and called Anya.

”What is it doctor Ning?” she asked.

”Here for your work today,” Ning said as he handed her the silver coin he got from the old man.

”Huh, I donʼt nee—”

”Just shut up and take it. Get something tasty for yourself and your brother,” Ning said.

The rest of the day no other customer arrived so Ning closed the shop and went back to his room and started cultivating.

The next morning, he went to the market and bought a bunch of ingredients he knew he would require for treatments. Then, it was back to treating people.

A few more people arrived and got treated. Ning took as little money as possible from these people. Same for the next day and the day after that.

Learning that there was a doctor in the village that treated patients at low cost, people started flocking to Ningʼs shop. Furthermore, once someone was massaged, they spread the news, and one after another, more people arrived for massage as well.

Soon, his shop would have a very high number of patients throughout the day.

The little girl Anya was truly surprised seeing how many patients there were and just how much they were paying.

Even when Ning earned 2-3 silver coins on average, throughout a single day, he would make around 25 gold coins throughout the day.

Of that, he would give her about 5 gold coins each day just because she helped with the queue of the people.

After seeing firsthand just how much money he was making, the little girl mustered up some courage and asked him, ”Can I learn to be a doctor too?”

Ning thought for a moment and said, ”Sure, why not. I will write some books in my spare time that you can read and learn. I will also teach you the massage technique. That should be very easy.”

So, the next few weeks, Ning spent some of the time writing the different medical knowledge he had into simple books and handed them to the little girl to read.

He made absolutely sure to let her know to hide these books at all cost. He even gave her a storage bag so she could keep the books.

As a bonus, he handed her his Divine Vortex Devouring technique and the Earth-Shattering - Heaven Tempering art as well.

Teaching a little kid about cultivation reminded him of his time with Hyesi all over again. He still wished that he was alive and that he could go see him if possible.

Anya was a talented girl too. As soon as he taught her something, she would understand it. At times, he started doubting if she had an eidetic memory too. However, she would sometimes forget things, so it proved she did not.

Soon, a few months passed and Anya was on her way to becoming a full-fledged doctor herself.
