Cao Yuan?
Ye Qiu muttered in a small voice, “Why does this name sound somewhat familiar? It’s as if I’ve heard it somewhere before ……”
Suddenly, he remembered.
Wasn’t the middle-aged man in strange attire that he had seen at the entrance of the operating room earlier named Cao Yuan?
Could it be that he was the Dragon Sect’s Sect Master, the Nine Thousand Years Old?
Ye Qiu quickly ran into the hospital and went straight to the operating room, by the time he arrived, the operating room was already empty.
“Where’s the injured person just now?”Ye Qiu hurriedly asked the nurse.
“It has been transferred to the ward.”The nurse replied.
“Which ward?”
“Thirty-one.”
Ye Qiu hurried to ward thirty-one again, entering the door and seeing a nurse changing Han Long’s medication, he couldn’t help but ask, “Where’s the middle-aged man he was with?”
“Already gone.”
“Gone? Gone where?”
“I don’t know.”Seeing Ye Qiu panting, the nurse thought he was worried about Han Long’s condition and said with a smile, “Doctor Ye, you don’t have to worry, all of his body indicators are normal, and he’ll be fine after recuperating for a while.”
“Oh.”
Ye Qiu absentmindedly answered and instructed, “Remember to call me when the patient wakes up.”
“Okay.”
After returning to the clinic, Ye Qiu’s mind was still recalling what the Dragon King had said.
“Bai Yujing is the eldest grandson of the old Bai family in the capital, and is known as the duo of the world along with Champion Marquis Xiao Jiu, and he is also Bai Bing’s cousin.”
What was the origin of this Bai family?
And what did Bai Yujing do?
Ye Qiu decided to find out, turned on his computer, and typed the words “White Family of Beijing” into Baidu.
Instantly, tens of thousands of news items appeared.
The headlines were all more frightening than one another:
“Record of the oldest general among the Founding Generals – Tiger General Bai Jingyao!”
“The Bai Family of Founding Generals: three generals from one family, two commanders from father and son!”
“……”
News like these are numerous.
But without exception, the protagonist of these news was old General Bai Jingyao.
Although Ye Qiu paid little attention to current politics, he had heard of Old General Bai’s great name.
Old General Bai Jingyao was over a hundred years old this year, and was one of the few remaining Founding Generals with outstanding war achievements.
Could it be that Bai Bing’s grandfather was Old General Bai?
No, Old General Bai was over a hundred years old now, and according to age projections, his son should be at least seventy years old, and his grandson should be at least forty or fifty years old.
Moreover, from amongst all these news, Ye Qiu didn’t search for Bai Yujing as a person.
Then, he flipped through some more news.
Finally, he saw an article on a self media with the title: ‘Exclusive Reveal: The White Family of the Capital City!
Ye Qiu opened it and read it carefully.
The more he read, the more he was shocked.
Elder General Bai came from a poor family, then joined the army, fought in countless wars, and after the founding of the country, was named a general.
Later, after three dynasties, he became a pillar of the army.
Not only that, General Bai was so old and strong that he got two sons when he was nearly sixty years old.
The eldest son, Bai Jianguo, was the commander of a ministry in the southwest, and at the age of forty, he carried a gold star on his shoulder and became the youngest general in the army, with a promising future, but he died in a car accident three years ago.
The youngest son, Bai Jianjun, is now forty-seven years old, and is now the chief of staff of a southwestern ministry, and was also just promoted to general last year.
In this article, Bai Yujing is mentioned.
Although the three words Bai Yujing were replaced with letters, Ye Qiu guessed it.
There was very little about Bai Yujing, only that he was the son of Bai Jianjun, and that he was nicknamed “White Yujing in the Sky”, along with Champion Marquis Xiao Jiu, who was also known as the Twin Heroes of the World.
At the end of the article, there is a group photo of the Bai family.
It was a group photo of the old Bai family with the old and young members of the Bai family when Elder General Bai celebrated his 105th birthday last year, and the highest power holder, Elder Tang, paid him a visit.
Old General Bai was sitting in the very centre, wearing a Tang suit and in good spirits. Elder Tang was sitting on the left, and on the right was his youngest son, Bai Jianjun.
A group of people surrounded behind them.
Ye Qiu saw a familiar face from these people – Bai Bing!
As expected, Director Bai was Old General Bai’s granddaughter.
In fact, from the first moment he saw Bai Bing, Ye Qiu felt from her noble temperament and stunning looks that Bai Bing’s identity was not simple, he just didn’t expect it to come from such a big place.
Ye Qiu’s heart had one more question.
Director Bai had such a strong background and was a high achiever who had returned from studying abroad, so why did she have to condescend to Jiangzhou Hospital?
With Bai Bing’s background and education, any hospital in the country could get in, but she stayed at Jiangzhou Hospital.
Why was this?
Afterwards, Ye Qiu took a closer look at the group photo, wanting to see what Bai Yujing looked like.
However, there were no other men in this group photo other than Elder Tang, Elder General Bai and Bai Jianjun.
“Strange! According to reason, Bai Yujing shouldn’t be absent on such an occasion, how come he’s not there?”
Ye Qiu went to search online for a while longer and was even more surprised.
Nothing about Bai Yujing could be found online, not even a single photo.
This guy was very mysterious!
Closing the webpage, Ye Qiu began to see patients.
After seeing a few patients, Ye Qiu was a bit distracted and asked the nurse to stop calling.
The Nine Thousand Years old didn’t stay in the hospital with that injured person, so what would he be doing?
Could it be ……
Ye Qiu rose with a start.
His actions scared the nurse next to him.
“Dr Ye, what’s wrong with you?”The nurse asked.
“Help me ask Director Bai for a leave of absence, just say that I have to go out for something.”
Ye Qiu hurried out the door after saying that, took a taxi, and went straight to Yunwu Mountain.
The purpose of Nine Thousand Years’ trip to Jiangzhou was to subdue the underground forces in Jiangzhou, so the first thing he would target was the Dragon King.
Coupled with the fact that the Nine Thousand Years was assassinated in Jiangzhou last night and several of his guards died, this matter, whether or not it was the Dragon King’s doing, the Dragon King had a great deal of suspicion.
If Nine Thousand Years old is not in the hospital with that injured person right now, then there is only one possibility, he went to find the Dragon King to ask for punishment.
“Master, speed up even faster.”
Ye Qiu was anxious in his heart and kept urging the taxi driver.
……
Cloud Mist Mountain.
The Dragon King’s residence.
“Dragon King, I’ve packed all the travelling gifts and I’m ready to go.”Zhao Yun said.
The Dragon King was holding his grandson Little Tiger in his arms, the same little boy who had fallen into the water at Mirror Lake a few days ago and was rescued by Ye Qiu, he touched Little Tiger’s head and said, “Little Tiger, in the future, you should listen to Uncle Zhao Yun’s words, study hard and strive to become a useful person in the future, okay?”
“Mm.”Little Tiger nodded and said, “Grandpa, won’t you go abroad with us?”
The Dragon King laughed, “I’m old, I can’t walk anymore, wait until you grow up, then come back to see grandpa.”
“But Grandpa, I can’t let go of you.”Little Tiger hugged the Dragon King tightly.
On the occasion of the separation of flesh and bones, even though this underground big shot who had been running the Jiangzhou, his old eyes were filled with tears at this moment.
“Little Tiger, remember to always listen to Uncle Zhao Yun, no matter what.”
“Mm.”
“Zhao Yun, Little Tiger is in your hands.”
“Don’t worry, I, Zhao Yun, will never fail you in this life.”
“I trust you, take Little Tiger and go!”The Dragon King waved his hand.
Puff!
Zhao Yun suddenly knelt down and kowtowed three times to the Dragon King before pulling Little Tiger and resolutely walking towards the outside of the courtyard.
Just then, a faint voice came from the doorway.
