Chapter 816 - 815: They Didn’t Know She Came
The reason Beisitian sleeps separately from Luo Xudong is because she knows that the military has its discipline, and she doesn’t want Luo Xudong to break it because of this.Beisitian’s room number is 607, although it’s not of the highest specification, it has a small lounge connected to the bedroom, and the large floor-to-ceiling windows look quite trendy, it’s said that the night view is beautiful.
Just after settling her things, Tian Zhi came looking for her. They came separately, as Tian Zhi wasn’t in Beijing at the time; he came directly after receiving the news.
"Master, is this your room?" Tian Zhi showed a hint of surprise on his face after entering.
"Why?"
Tian Zhi scratched his head and said, "Don’t they know you are the head of the Qingyu School? Both the Ancient Wood School and Qingyu School have their highest specification suites arranged on the top floor!"
Beisitian realized at this moment that the room was arranged by Zhan Lanqi, and she came with Luo Xudong. Zhan Lanqi probably didn’t know her relationship with Qingyu, hence the arrangement.
"Master, I’ll talk to them." Tian Zhi suggested.
Beisitian stopped him, "It doesn’t matter where I stay; the environment here is quite good, we’ll leave it until tomorrow since it’s so late."
No place is as comfortable as home, Beisitian truly doesn’t care much about it. She’s not here for tourism, but for work; it’s all the same wherever she is.
Seeing this, Tian Zhi didn’t say anything further and started chatting with Beisitian.
"Speaking of which, the Great Power invited by the Ancient Wood School this time is Chu Zhicheng, but it seems he’s occupied and hasn’t arrived yet. The person who came is an influential figure from the Ancient Wood School named Lin Yunping, have you heard of him, Master?"
Beisitian nodded; the name Lin Yunping is indeed well-known in the Mystic Medical World. Although he hasn’t achieved Spiritual Talisman, both his talisman making and medicine preparation skills are quite proficient; the average level of integrated herbs exceeds ninety, reaching over one hundred and ten at its highest, which is a recent achievement.
This achievement, under circumstances unable to perform Spiritual Talisman, is already quite remarkable, worthy of being the backbone of the Ancient Wood School!
"I’ve heard Lin Yunping’s medical experience is particularly rich, resolving two challenging medical projects. He must be sixty by now, right?" Beisitian inquired.
Tian Zhi nodded, knowing he was attending a political task, so he studied well on the way. Being young and inexperienced, he didn’t want to weaken Qingyu’s reputation, hence he desperately crammed everything, whether about the task itself or about attendees this time.
"Virtual age sixty-three, but what I’ve heard is that his personality isn’t very nice, definitely arrogant, and seems to flaunt his seniority somewhat, possibly causing Master some trouble." Tian Zhi remarked.
Most mystic doctors are quite proud, especially those with skills. This collaboration is the first for the Ancient Wood School with the military; if Lin Yunping really puts on airs, things may not go too smoothly.
Luo Xudong is skilled in leading troops with high task completion rates, but he’s not from the mystic medical circle, making his voice somewhat passive. Perhaps, she’ll have to act proud this time too.
Beisitian decided to act accordingly.
Only one Ancient Wood School member came, followed by recruited family and school members, and those dispatched by the Association to assist, totaling twelve people—quite a number.
Tian Zhi did ample preparation; after Beisitian understood things, he left to rest.
At night, Luo Xudong along with the Military Department staff held a task meeting themselves while the mystic doctors could rest normally.
Early the next morning, the mystic doctors gathered in a small conference room of this five-star hotel. Due to high confidentiality, the hotel wasn’t closed but operated normally, with its undercover force doubled; the small conference room was remodeled by the Military Department before its use.
Fang Yushan and Zhou Biwu appeared in the small conference room; they’re the primary agents, naturally present, while Wu Yuekai and Chen Jingfeng’s presence was optional as they were commanders of the reinforcement troops arranged in advance.
Whenever reinforcements are pre-arranged, it indicates high task danger.
Upon entering, Zhou Biwu spotted Beisitian sitting at the back row, feeling pleasantly surprised; given the task’s tight schedule, he hadn’t sought out Wu Yuekai for her contact. Unexpectedly, she appeared here; was she summoned?
He always felt that with Beisitian’s skills, an invitation wouldn’t be enough for her, but she herself didn’t have much fame; the Military Department couldn’t possibly invite an unknown person, thus it was inevitable.
Each desk had name tags; only two names were listed individually, while the rest were family units, and mystic doctors naturally sat according to name tags. The seats for the Ancient Wood School and Qingyu School were in the front.
There were only Lin Yunping and Tian Zhi’s names on the table, Beisitian’s name wasn’t, so she sat at the back. Apparently, the Military Department assumed she hadn’t come.
Beisitian didn’t plan to clarify at this point; it would seem as if she cared about such ostentation, and sitting at the back allowed her to observe many people’s expressions.
Tian Zhi knew Beisitian’s demeanor, indifferent to such matters, but it’s better to inform the Military Department later, he didn’t know who arranged this, so careless.
Even if Beisitian arrived with Luo Xudong, it’s essential to verify which family or school she belongs to, yet she was arranged immediately; truly negligent.
The negligent person now sat with other Military Department personnel together, Zhan Lanqi glanced at Beisitian sitting at the back, showing no emotion on the surface but with eyes smiling, letting her see what the real mystic doctor’s consultation looked like.
She didn’t think Beisitian confined to that small courtyard had much insights; the skill level, although unknown, probably equaled hers.
Zhan Lanqi subconsciously assumed this without considering other possibilities.
Luo Xudong didn’t appear in the small conference room, he’s the task executor; the information soon told to the mystic doctors doesn’t need repeating, naturally deploying outside.
Fang Yushan sat at the front, with less solemnity and more smiles. Beneath weren’t his soldiers but self-important mystic doctors, so approach should be harmonious.
"Thanks everyone for joining us today to assist our Military Department in completing this task. I am Fang Yushan, and this is Zhou Biwu..." Fang Yushan briefly introduced him and Zhou Biwu, then directly got to the point.
"Next, I’d like to show everyone a set of data, highlighting some special individuals from this death list, whose causes remain unknown."
