Seeing that Xiao Qin didn't ask any more questions for a long time, after a little hesitation, Shanhe still couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart after all, and asked:

"Uncle Xiao, that ...... Can I ask a question?"

"Just ask. ”

"Well, the man in the ward just now, judging from the way he was dressed, should be from the secular world, right?"

"That's right, he seems to be from Chumeng City, and he's been here for four or five days. Xiao Qin replied without concealment.

"Oh. How could there be a patient from the secular realm in our Nangong Gate? Could it be that he is the child of a secular family?" Shan He guessed with a puzzled face.

"No, he's just an ordinary patient, and I don't know where he came from. ”

Hearing what the other party said, Shanhe was confused on the spot.

He had always believed that the so-called "severe treatment" was mostly for his fellow disciples who were seriously injured in the sect.

Even if there is an occasional outsider, it should be someone from the cultivation realm.

It is really puzzling that such a secular person who does not know how to come from can appear in the Jishi Courtyard of Nangong Gate.

After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't guess the answer, so he asked again:

"Then how did he get to Pie, is it just anyone, we're going to help?"

"How did you come up? Of course, it was sent by a secular family, otherwise he could have run up on his own?"

After shaking his head angrily, he saw Xiao Qin take out a contract from the folder on the table, and said while reading it:

"As for the reason for admitting him to the hospital, let me see...... As long as we heal this person within seven days, their family is willing to give them two demon pills, plus two pieces of fine Xuanjing Iron as a reward. Hehe, the pay is not bad. ”

As soon as these words came out, Shanhe, who was sitting opposite, instantly understood something, and muttered: "Oh, it turned out to be paid treatment......"

Although the voice of Shanhe was not loud, it was still heard by Xiao Qin on the other side, and his eyes immediately widened and said:

"Of course it's paid! Otherwise, the old man will work overtime every day to treat the injuries of these ordinary people? Hmph!

"So, the whole yard is full of similar 'customers'?"

After learning that this was a pile of profit transactions, Shanhe even changed his name, and directly called the patient a "customer".

"Well, almost. ”

Xiao Qin tapped the folder with her fingers and nodded back:

"Most of them were sent by the secular world, and some were from other cultivation sects, and only a small number of them were our own people. Hehe, as long as it's not from our Nangong Gate, and other people want to come for treatment, they have to sign a big contract with the old body. ”

Speaking of the word "contract", I saw that Xiao Qin's face faintly showed a bit of pride, and said to Shanhe:

"So Sanke, don't look at that old man Wang goes out hunting with his demon hunting team every day, and every time he comes back with a few demon pills, he is full of spirit, as if he has contributed much to the sect. But in fact, compared to our Jishi Academy, they are not half a star behind! The resources that our Jishi Yuan hands over every week are several times that of his hunting group. So, don't look at this courtyard as inconspicuous, but in fact, this is the most important revenue department of Nangong Gate!"

"Wow, so Jishiyuan is so powerful?" said Shanhe with a look of surprise.

"Of course, otherwise, with the cultivation of the old body, how dare you argue with your master casually? After smiling proudly, I heard Xiao Qin say with a little regret:

"It's a pity that there are too few disciples who can meet the requirements, and there are too many patients who come up, so we don't have time to treat them in time. That's why I bought a lot of medical equipment from the secular world and arranged for nursing staff to prevent accidents. ”

After hearing these words, Shanhe finally understood why there were so many modern medical equipment in Nangong Gate, it was originally to maintain the patient's life as much as possible before being cured.

"Hey, Elder Xiao, why do you want to put blindfolds on the patients, are you afraid that they will wake up and see something?"

"Well, that's right!" Xiao Qin nodded and explained:

"Actually, when each patient goes up the mountain, we give them a drug, similar to the anesthetic of your worldly world, so that they don't know the secrets of the sect. However, the resistance of people is different, some people do not wake up for seven or eight days, but some people wake up in two or three days. There have also been cases of patients sneaking out of the yard and wandering around the pie before being discovered. Hehe, so we raised the fence and locked the gate to prevent the patients from escaping. ”

After hearing this, Shanhe understood that the patient was at risk of escaping.

But he still doesn't understand, what can a blindfold do to prevent it? Once the patient is awake, can't he reach out and take it off?

After listening to Sanke's doubts, Xiao Qin smiled and explained that the eye patch was not an ordinary eye patch, it was more like a hypnotic array that could be carried around.

Once the patient is awake, the array works automatically, hypnotizing the patient a second time and preventing them from leaving the room.

"Oh, it turns out that this eye patch still has a hypnotic effect, amazing!" After admiring from the bottom of his heart, Shanhe asked casually:

"Elder Xiao, since the income of the Jishi Academy is so high, and there is an endless stream of patients, why don't you arrange more disciples to work here?"

Hearing this, Xiao Qin's brows instantly wrinkled together, shook his head and sighed:

"Alas, don't you want to be an old man? But the disciples below the Sixfold Realm, the healing effect is too low, and it is like a drop in the bucket for seriously ill patients, and they can't work independently when they come, and the disciples above the Sixfold Realm, there are only about twenty of them in our Nangong Sect, where do you let me go to find the extra disciples?"

"Ah, we have thousands of disciples in Nangong Sect, and there are only about twenty of them above the Sixth Realm? Senior Uncle Xiao, you're not joking, are you?" said Shanhe in surprise.

"Are you kidding, what am I joking about about this?" Xiao Qin glared at Shanhe angrily, and then said:

"Although there are thousands of disciples in my Nanmen Palace, because of their talent, only less than three hundred disciples can learn this technique. And among these three hundred people, there are also good and bad, and there are not many people who can ascend to the sixfold realm. In addition, over the years, the disciples have been more inclined to cultivate diligently, and few people are willing to spend time practicing the healing technique, so ...... There are really fewer and fewer disciples who can be promoted to the Sixfold Realm. ”

Speaking of this, I saw Xiao Qin turn her head to look out the window again, and added with a disappointed face:

"I remember the last time a disciple ascended to the sixfold realm, it was five or six years ago. It's been so long, and not even one of them has appeared again, alas......"
