chapter 22. helping Wei Ming

As they walked, Xua Yan filled Uncle Jiang and the old woman in on the details of his plan. He explained that, in this world, there was no way to transfer blood from one person to another, and that the only options for recovery were to wait for the body to naturally recover or to take expensive pills created by alchemists. Xua Yan believed that he could be the first person to successfully perform a blood transfer and was determined to do everything in his power to help the young man.

As Xua Yan walked back towards Wei Ming's place, he noticed a group of workers who were carrying heavy items for the wealthy people in the town. Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he went over to one of the workers. Xua Yan pulled out 100 silver coins and offered them to the worker, asking if he would come with him. Xua Yan did this because he wanted to take blood from this worker and in return gave him money. He cannot use the blood from Wei Ming and others because soon they have to take part in martial arts competition and any harm to their vitality will affect their result.

Uncle Jiang and the old woman watched with great interest as Xua Yan approached the worker. They were curious about Xua Yan's intentions and wanted to see what he was planning. Xua Yan explained his idea to the worker, and he was eager to help. The old woman and Uncle Jiang continued to watch in wonder as Xua Yan, the worker, and the 100 silver coins that Xua Yan gave to the worker.

Upon reaching Wei Ming's place, Xua Yan immediately got to work. His first step was to sterilize the needles to ensure that the transfer was as safe as possible. Xua Yan set to work preparing the necessary equipment. He carefully crafted the needle and the other equipment he would need for the procedure. Uncle Jiang looked on in amazement as Xua Yan worked with precision and skill, knowing that he was in the presence of someone with a unique set of skills and knowledge. After taking the necessary precautions, he approached the worker that he had brought along with him and gave him an herb to eat. He then gave the same herb to the injured young man, who was lying on a bed nearby.

The worker was hesitant to eat the herb at first, but Xua Yan's promise of 100 silver coins, which was equivalent to a month's worth of income, was too tempting for him to resist. Xua Yan explained that the herb was a special one that would help increase the worker's blood flow and make the transfer process easier.

Xua Yan took the time to explain each step of the process to Uncle Jiang and the old woman, and they both listened intently, eager to learn and understand more about what he was doing.

As the worker ate the herb, Xua Yan monitored his vital signs and made sure that he was in good condition to proceed with the transfer. Wei Ming and the others watched the scene with great interest, amazed at the lengths that Xua Yan was willing to go to in order to help their friend. They were filled with hope for the young man's recovery, and they couldn't wait to see the results of the transfer.

With both the worker and the young man unconscious, Xua Yan positioned the worker on a higher elevation and the young man on a lower elevation. He then inserted the needles into both of them and connected them with a tube, allowing for the transfer of blood to begin. Xua Yan continuously monitored the flow of blood using his spiritual senses to ensure that the process was going smoothly.

After the transfer was complete, Xua Yan removed the tube and asked everyone to leave the room. He needed to be alone with the young man to observe his recovery and make sure that he was not experiencing any negative side effects from the procedure. The others were grateful for Xua Yan's help and eager to see the results of his efforts. They all left the room, feeling a mix of hope, excitement, and nervousness as they waited to see if the young man would make a full recovery.

As Xua Yan watched over the unconscious worker and young man, he knew that the next step was critical to their recovery. He took out a cup of spirit water from Entropy and carefully poured it into the mouth of both the worker and the young man. Spirit water was known for its healing properties and Xua Yan was hoping that it would help speed up the recovery process for the two of them.

Within seconds, both the worker and the young man began to stir, slowly waking up from their unconscious state. As they opened their eyes, Xua Yan could see the confusion and fear in their faces. However, as they started to take in their surroundings and understand what had happened, their expressions changed from fear to amazement.

The young man was the first to speak, expressing his gratitude to Xua Yan and the others. He felt completely refreshed and his soul was already healing much faster than before. He was amazed at the methods of Xua Yan and the impact it had on his recovery.

The worker, who was initially hesitant to participate in the procedure, was equally amazed by his newfound energy and health. He couldn't believe that 100 silver coins could bring such a drastic change to his life. He was so grateful to Xua Yan for the opportunity and vowed to help him in any way possible in the future.

Xua Yan smiled at the workers' and the young man's reactions, feeling a sense of satisfaction that his plan had worked. He had successfully performed the first blood transfer in this world, and the results were beyond what he had expected. After checking that everything was fine, Xua Yan decided to go out with that worker and the young man to the outside of the room.

As the young man and the worker entered the main hall, everyone was stunned by the transformation they saw in the young man. Young man was now more energetic and full of life, his soul was visibly healing at a much faster pace. He walked up to Xua Yan and introduced himself as Jun Wang, thanking him for what he had done to save his life.

Uncle Jiang was also present in the hall and he approached Xua Yan, praising his bravery and his medical skills. He spoke about the upcoming martial arts competition and told Xua Yan that he should definitely participate in it. He explained that the competition was a great platform for people to showcase their skills and talents, and that it was an excellent opportunity for Xua Yan to prove his worth and gain recognition.

Xua Yan listened carefully to Uncle Jiang's words and considered his suggestion. He had never participated in a martial arts competition before, but he felt that this could be a good opportunity for him to test his skills and learn from others. He thanked Uncle Jiang for his advice and promised to consider his suggestion.

The group spent some more time together, chatting and getting to know each other better. Xua Yan learned more about Jun Wang's story and how he had formed such a close bond with Wei Ming and the others. He was touched by their friendship and he couldn't help but admire their loyalty and bravery.

After some time chatting and discussing the competition Xua Yan said goodbye to everyone and left the inn, making his way to the house that Uncle Jiang had recommended for him to rent. He walked to the nearest office, where he could rent the house, and upon arriving, he approached the counter and spoke with the person in charge.

Xua Yan explained to the person in charge that he was interested in renting a house for one month, and the person asked for a payment of 200 silver coins. Xua Yan didn't hesitate and quickly paid the required fee, securing the house for himself for the next month.

As Xua Yan made his way to the house that he had just rented, he couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement mixed with a bit of nervousness. After all, this would be his first time living on his own in a completely new world.

Finally, he reached the house, and as he approached it, he couldn't help but admire its appearance. Despite being an old, sturdy and simple house, it still had a certain charm that was hard to ignore. The walls were made of solid brick and were painted a deep, warm brown that added to its cozy, homely feel. The roof was sloped and covered in weathered tiles that had been there for many years, but still managed to keep the elements out.

The house had two floors, with the entrance located on the ground floor. The door was large and heavy, made of sturdy wood with iron hinges, and had a simple brass knocker that Xua Yan couldn't help but admire. The windows were small and square, with simple white curtains that were now slightly yellowed from years of exposure to the sun.

The front yard was small but well-maintained, with a few shrubs and a small garden that was surrounded by a low brick wall. There was also a small wooden bench near the entrance, where Xua Yan could sit and enjoy the fresh air.

As Xua Yan stepped inside, he was greeted by a spacious living room that was filled with natural light. The floor was covered in a warm, golden-toned hardwood, which had been well-worn over the years but still looked inviting. There was a large fireplace in one corner of the room, which Xua Yan could imagine would be perfect for chilly evenings. The furniture was simple but functional, with a few comfortable chairs, a sofa, and a wooden coffee table.

Beyond the living room, there was a kitchen that was surprisingly well-equipped, with a large stove, a sink, and plenty of counter space. There was also a pantry that was stocked with some basic supplies, including some herbs, oil, and a few other essentials.

Upstairs, there were two bedrooms and a bathroom. The bedrooms were simple but comfortable, each with a bed, a dresser, and a window that overlooked the surrounding area. The bathroom was small but functional, with a sink, a toilet, and a shower.

With the intention of making the house feel more like home, Xua Yan set about cleaning it up. He went room by room, dusting and wiping down surfaces, and tidying up any clutter that had accumulated over time. He worked tirelessly, making sure that every corner of the house was sparkling clean and organized.

All in all, Xua Yan was very pleased with his new home. It may have been an old, sturdy, and simple house, but it was perfect for his needs and offered everything that he needed to live comfortably.

Once Xua Yan finished cleaning the house, he realized that it was already evening and he was feeling hungry. So he decided to go to a nearby hotel to grab a bite to eat. After having his meal, Xua Yan returned to his new house, ready to tend to his plants.

He took out his trusty Entropy and went inside of it, where he found the seeds that he had received from the old lady and the lotus-like plant seed. Xua Yan carefully planted both seeds, making sure they were properly placed and had enough water. He then watched over the seeds, feeling content as he saw them slowly start to grow.

Once he was satisfied with the progress of the seeds, Xua Yan decided it was time to get some rest. He left Entropy and went to bed, feeling tired but happy with the progress he had made that day. With a clear mind and a full stomach, Xua Yan fell asleep, ready to face whatever challenges tomorrow may bring.
