Chapter 1973 - 147: The Monk’s Origins
The sudden increase in population, a full eighty thousand, all women, and had once worn civilian clothes.
The Monk pondered it carefully, feeling a vague unease in his heart.
Though he carried the identity of a monk, this Monk was actually very well-connected.
He was in Dongdi, but his information was rather comprehensive. At this moment, connecting the dots in his mind, he frowned and said, "One can only hope... it isn’t that person. Otherwise, the Dayuan Royal Family would be like a tiger with wings added, which might be disadvantageous to me."
...
Dong Huiying arrived at the inn, and her actions were extremely discreet.
So far, the elderly and the two little ones were still kept in the dark, completely unaware that Dong Huiying and the Liang family had already noticed the elderly following with the children.
During these days, whenever she thought of the children, Dong Huiying would always sneak over, not showing herself, merely watching from the shadows.
One might ask why she was being so secretive, behaving like a thief.
Dong Huiying climbed up a tall tree, muttering to herself, wondering when exactly this all started. It seemed to begin when they set out for Dongdi,
by coincidentally overhearing Little Wuwang saying he wanted to give them a ’surprise’, wanting to see their startled expressions. This child, almost materialistic, rarely made mistakes. As parents, of course, they had to do their utmost to satisfy him.
Thus, Dong Huiying and the Liang brothers cooperated as best they could, collectively pretending to be unaware, as if they were teasing the child, to avoid discouraging his enthusiasm.
After all, Wuwang, this child... is very obedient, but far too mature for his age.
His sensitive and considerate little heart doesn’t want to burden the family, always suppressing his own desires. This is not conducive to the child’s growth.
So sometimes, Dong Huiying often finds herself reflecting. She would rather Little Wuwang be a bit mischievous, like a normal child, lively and playful, rather than acting mature beyond his years, developing only in the direction of precocity.
Living like this is too tiring.
The world of a child is supposed to be innocent and pure.
She hopes Wuwang can spend this pure childhood, not burdened with too much on his mind, and not step too early into the world of adults.
...
It was precisely noon at that moment.
The elderly lady was quite generous, boldly booking the entire inn.
Little Wuwang had a habit of taking afternoon naps. At this moment, the inn’s backyard, only one door was left open.
The sunlight was gentle, and you could hear the wind rustling through the leaves, accompanied by the chirping of insects and the croaking of frogs. In the tranquility, you could sense prosperity.
Dong Huiying thought to herself that her timing was off and feared she wouldn’t see Wuwang today and was about to leave when her ears perked up. She had heard footsteps.
Soon after, she saw the elderly lady walking out of the house.
What was going on?
Dong Huiying looked towards the elderly lady, feeling a bit strange.
She was well-versed in Qihuang Medical Skills, and even, her proficiency in this field was such that even one with the renowned name of Divine Doctor like Yun Ge would feel ashamed.
It was indeed quite a coincidence.
Before coming to this world, Dong Huiying also had the title of Divine Doctor.
...
Due to her exquisite skills, adept at observation and diagnosis, Dong Huiying immediately noticed the elderly lady’s complexion was rather poor.
This complexion, something was amiss.
She pondered carefully for a moment, her brow suddenly furrowing.
"Grandma Qin!"
The elderly lady had just put Little Wuwang to sleep and was planning to check on Little Star in the next room. She thought to herself, that Devil Incarnate must have also gone to sleep, otherwise, it wouldn’t be this quiet.
