The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 1524 - 1523: Escape

In an instant, they were close. Lin Yu’s face was already turning blue, and her breathing was weak.

Ling Feng couldn’t care about anything else, immediately held her wrist, and channeled his spiritual power into Lin Yu’s meridians.

At the same time, he took out the medicinal pills for detoxification and stuffed them into Lin Yu’s mouth.

Just then, from the place where the black smoke had just emerged, there was a sudden boom. Small and large rock fragments scattered in all directions, and then a giant black silhouette emerged from underground and flew straight into the air!

Ling Feng, holding Lin Yu’s hand, watched helplessly as the black figure transformed into a large bird in the sky and flew away into the distance.

He wanted to chase, but since Lin Yu had been deeply poisoned, leaving her behind was not an option, so Ling Feng had no choice but to give up.

The black figure flew deep into the mountains, and ten minutes later, Lin Yu’s complexion was restored, and she slowly opened her eyes.

"How do you feel now?" Ling Feng quickly asked.

"Did I get poisoned?"

Lin Yu asked as she weakly sat up.

Ling Feng nodded: "Yes, the poison in that black smoke is very potent, just inhaling a tiny bit was enough!"

"Thank you, boss."

Lin Yu thanked him and then hurriedly asked, "Is there a dark hole below? Boss, can you take a look?"

"No need, whatever was hiding in there has already escaped."

Ling Feng shook his head, his divine sense had already scanned the area, revealing that below the stone crevice was a dried well, more than ten meters deep.

This place is different from the Spirit Bone Tower, which is above ground, while this location is sunk below, yet they correspond to each other from afar.

As for why it was designed that way, perhaps only the person involved knows.

Regardless, with a tower on one side and a well on the other, there must be some intention behind it.

"I’m sorry, boss, I held you back." Lin Yu said apologetically.

Ling Feng looked at her and shook his head with a wry smile: "What are you talking about? If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have discovered there’s a well here!"

"But that guy already escaped, could he be the Leader of the Tongtian Sect?" Lin Yu asked.

"That’s possible!"

Ling Feng furrowed his brow, recalling the black shadow soaring into the sky, clearly humanoid, he said in a deep voice.

But to avoid burdening Lin Yu too much, Ling Feng still smiled: "Don’t worry, he’s already exposed his tracks. Next time we encounter him, it won’t be so easy for him to get away!"

Lin Yu knew he was comforting her, she lowered her head slightly and said: "Yes, I must find him again!"

"Exactly, he nearly killed you, we can’t let this go unavenged!"

Ling Feng said and then pulled her up, after which he directly picked her up: "Let’s head back first, we’ll discuss more at the bureau!"

Lin Yu didn’t speak, though she could walk, she found herself reluctant to leave Ling Feng’s embrace, so she simply let him hold her.

Ling Feng carried Lin Yu back to the Spirit Bone Tower, then called Tian Lian, and soon they were back at the parking spot.

He had her sit in the passenger seat, Ling Feng drove, and made it back to the safety bureau by noon.

In fact, Lin Yu’s condition was no longer serious, but once back, Ling Feng still made sure she went home to rest.

Afterward, he went to his own office.

Just as he sat down, Tao Ziqian came in.

The two had only met over the phone before, this was their first face-to-face conversation.

"Director Ling, you’re back!"

Tao Ziqian, in his thirties, said with a bright smile.

Ling Feng smiled and nodded: "Things have come to a pause, I came back to check on things!"

Then he asked: "How’s that scroll?"

"It’s been analyzed, and it’s been confirmed to be in a minority language that’s been lost for a long time." Tao Ziqian said.

"Is that so?"

Ling Feng furrowed his brow, then asked: "Does that mean the Leader of the Tongtian Sect knew this language and taught it to other sect members?"

"That’s likely the case!"

Tao Ziqian nodded: "The text’s content is still being deciphered as it’s quite challenging since few people understand it."

"No matter, as long as we generally understand the meaning, his sudden disappearance definitely alerted him, so he issued new orders!"

Ling Feng sighed: "Now that he’s escaped, he might be hard to find, but we definitely can’t let him get away!"

"Director, any other orders? If not, I’ll head out first." Tao Ziqian asked.

"No need to be so formal, everyone here is colleagues, you go ahead and carry on!" Ling Feng said with a smile.

If Tao Ziqian went out, Ling Feng sighed lightly and opened the computer on his desk.

He entered the system, but after fiddling for a while, finding it taxing, he simply called Zhang He.

Once connected, Ling Feng said: "I just tried it and I’m not very skilled at it, can you help me check if there is a satellite over the Spirit Bone Tower, I want the imagery from the time."

"Since when did I become your subordinate? Can’t find it yourself, have your sub-bureau staff help!" Zhang He said irritably.

Ling Feng was taken aback, then laughed: "It’s because I hold you dear, of course!"

Then he switched his words: "If you’re unwilling, how about this, I’ll transfer Lin Xue, Chen Yan, and Ye Qian over to help me instead!"

"Get lost, if those three leave, I’ll be left with no one in this sub-bureau!" Zhang He barked angrily.

"Can’t be helped, I’m not too familiar with things here!"

Ling Feng sighed, then added: "How about you help me look into it?"

Zhang He was speechless and sighed: "Alright, I give up, wait a moment!"

The moment he finished speaking, the call was directly hung up.

Ling Feng chuckled, knowing this tactic would work!

Leaning back in his chair, he waited for twenty minutes before the phone rang again, it was Zhang He who called and said: "The imagery you wanted, I cannot find, there is no real-time monitoring!"

"That’s a pity!"

Ling Feng sighed: "The Leader of the Tongtian Sect escaped, finding him again might be tricky, what do you think I should do?"

Zhang He chuckled, a hint of schadenfreude in his tone: "What to do? Just mix it up!"

"Enjoying the show, are you? Should I call Director Han?" Ling Feng asked with a cold smile.

Zhang He momentarily paused, then reluctantly said: "Stop threatening me, to be honest, there’s really no way around it, the Xinglong Gang’s matter hasn’t even been concluded yet, and now there’s this Leader of the Tongtian Sect, I can’t help you!"

At this point, he pondered for a bit: "Rather than looking for me, you might as well find Ling Yao and Long Xiaoyu!"

"Alright, I won’t bother you for now!"

Ling Feng smiled, knowing that he really couldn’t think of a solution either, so he didn’t press further and directly hung up.

Just as he was about to stand up and head back to the Nine Heavens, the phone rang.
