The people in the collapsing iron gave the immortal ship a small shock from the Holy Lord.

For others, consuming the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir is an immense blessing, but for her, it's nothing short of torture.

Chapter 889 Treating Oripathy

"Uh……"

Bai Zhi opened her lifeless eyes, her whole body emanating a faint aura of death.

She didn't remember how long the class lasted, only that later, Lao Tzu took her to a place where time flowed completely differently from outside.

She was only freed after consuming all the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir from those five large gourds during her classes.

Somewhat mechanically, Bai Zhi got out of bed and pushed open the door.

"Teacher Bai Zhi, why do you look like this? Are you sick?"

Yan Qing, who was standing nearby, was shocked when he saw Bai Zhi. Bai Zhi was radiating a dejected aura, with dark circles under her eyes, looking like she was about to die suddenly.

What's strange is that, besides this melancholy aura, Bai Zhi also emitted a faint, hazy white light, giving people a sense of holiness and calming their minds.

"I'm fine, it's just from taking too many classes."

Bai Zhi waved her hand weakly. She was in good physical condition, but her mind was a little tired. She had slept for so long that she couldn't fall asleep again.

"Attend class??"

Yanqing scratched his head in confusion. He hadn't heard of Baizhi going to school recently.

Could it be online classes?

"So what are your plans for today? Would you like to go check out the martial arts ceremony venue?"

Bai Zhi shook her head. "No, I won't go to the Jingfeng Ship today. I have a headache. I'll just... stay here at the Dan Ding Division and treat some patients."

"Didn't they say that because of the martial arts ceremony recently, many people have come here to seek medical advice and treatment?"

Over-studying made Bai Zhi feel that her thinking ability was almost stagnating, so she decided to stay at the Dan Ding Division to get treatment instead of going to the Jing Feng Ship.

"Yes, Teacher Bai Zhi is indeed kind-hearted. Recently, the number of people in Luofu has increased significantly. Many people come to the Dan Ding Si to seek treatment for their difficult and complicated diseases. Bai Lu Long Nu is so busy that she has no time to do anything else."

"Hmm... no wonder I haven't seen her these past few days. She must be having a hard time. Well then, I'll go help her out."

"Okay, I'll arrange it for you right away, Teacher Baizhi!"

Yanqing accepted the order and left. He returned shortly afterward, bringing Baizhi to a separate clinic within the Dan Ding Division.

"Alright, please let the first patient in."

Bai Zhi patted her cheeks to cheer herself up a little.

The first person Yan Qing helped in was a thin man whose body seemed to be covered with strange crystals.

“Teacher Baizhi, this person said he has some kind of mineral disease. I think he looks quite pitiful. You can definitely cure him, right?”

"Oh, Oripathy..."

Bai Zhi casually glanced at the man and realized that his illness was indeed as its name suggested. His body was covered in crystals, and these crystals seemed to be piercing out from inside his body, which must have been causing him immense pain.

Where are you from?

Bai Zhi asked casually.

The person gave a strange name, something like a moving city, saying that he worked there and had contracted Oripathy from sharing a set of medical equipment with some people infected with it.

Then he started rambling on about all sorts of random things like natural disasters and Originium.

"Alright, alright, no need to say too much."

Hearing this rambling, Bai Zhi felt her head start to ache again. In her opinion, this was probably a mining occupational disease patient from a backward planet.

So, Bai Zhi simply raised the power of the horse talisman in her hand and poured it into the person.

In just a moment, the minerals that had grown on the person's body turned into a pile of lifeless dust.

"Yanqing, see the guest out."

Bai Zhi waved her hand listlessly; this minor illness was utterly devoid of any challenge.

Immediately afterwards, the next patient walked in; she was a blonde girl wearing a pointed witch's hat.

"What's wrong with her?"

Bai Zhi looked at Yan Qing.

"Reporting to Teacher Baizhi, this young lady says she accidentally ate some poisonous mushrooms from the Magic Forest, which has caused her to have inappropriate thoughts about her witch girlfriend. So she hopes you can cure her."

"There's such a disease?"

Bai Zhi scratched her head in confusion, but still placed her hand on the girl's chest, and the power of the horse talisman instantly rushed into it.

"now what?"

Bai Zhi asked the blonde girl.

"doctor……"

The blonde girl said somewhat shyly, "I feel like I still have a lot of feelings for her. It feels like this illness hasn't been cured."

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi patted the blonde girl's shoulder and said, "It's alright. You're in good health. Take good care of your witch girlfriend when you get back. I wish you two a long and happy life together."

"Eh?"

The girl was full of questions, but she still took a few steps and walked out.

"I think this situation should be addressed by a psychologist, although it probably doesn't qualify as a mental illness."

"How about... I screen Teacher Bai Zhi first, and then let those patients in?"

Yanqing tentatively offered a suggestion.

"Hmm, no need. Let's leave it at that for today. Doing something relaxing like this will help me recover my energy."

Bai Zhi stretched, and perhaps because she had stopped hearing those teachings, she felt that her spirits were slowly recovering as time went by.

"Next!"

Bai Zhi shouted, her voice slightly stronger now.

Immediately, a bald man pushed open the door of the clinic, looked left and right as he walked in, and he was carrying a plastic bag full of food.

This doesn't look like someone who came for medical treatment; it looks more like someone who just went on a shopping spree at a discount supermarket.

"What problem do you have that you need me to treat?"

Bai Zhi didn't take it to heart. She was just passing the time and trying to recover her energy, not interviewing employees. As long as the patient's symptoms weren't too abstract, it didn't matter.

"Doctor, I'm in good health and exercise a lot every day. I just want to ask if there's any hope for my hair?"

The bald man put down what appeared to be supplies he had bought on sale at a supermarket, pointed to his head which was almost glowing, and asked...

"Oh, baldness? That's quite simple. You've been exercising too much. Excessive exercise usually leads to baldness. I can cure you now. Just don't exercise too intensely in the future and you won't go bald."

Bai Zhi glanced at the bald man and said casually.

"Really? Doctor, can you really save this bald guy?"

The bald man perked up immediately. His hair had always been a source of pain for him. Although he didn't know why he had ended up in this strange clinic today, the doctor seemed very professional and confident.

"You'll find out soon enough. Hold out your hand, and I'll treat you."

Chapter 890: Saitama's Hair Grows

“This patient, you are indeed in very good health.”

Bai Zhi placed her hand on the bald man's hand, and felt an unexpected hardness.

"Hehe, I usually like to exercise, doctor, that won't stop me from treating this hair loss problem, will it?"

The bald man smiled sheepishly, then touched his shiny bald head with a hint of distress.

"That's no problem."

Bai Zhi activated the horse talisman, and the healing power rushed into the bald man's body.

In an instant, the handsome bald head seemed to explode, sprouting a head of long black hair.

The bald man was stunned for a moment, then touched his head in disbelief.

The texture of those long-lost strands of hair felt so real.

"I...I have hair again? Haha, haha, I have hair again?"

The bald man kept rubbing his hair, his excitement almost overflowing.

For some reason, seeing this scene reminded Bai Zhi of a scene from a Chinese animation she watched in her childhood, where Empress Dowager Cixi shouted, "I have hair now!"

There's always a sense that they're exactly the same.

"Alright, patient, please calm down for a moment."

Bai Zhi pressed down with both hands.

"Oh, okay, doctor."

The bald man immediately sat obediently on the patient's small stool.

Although he had never seen a doctor as skilled as Bai Zhi before, now that Bai Zhi had cured his hair loss, he would be willing to face even the most formidable enemies.

Not to mention it quieted down.

"If I'm not mistaken, your hair loss is probably caused by over-exercising. Although I've restored your hair, if you continue to train like this, you might continue to lose hair."

Out of a sense of responsibility to the patient, Bai Zhi still offered a reminder.

The power of the horse talisman is indeed very strong, but after curing these ailments, it cannot prevent recurrence. It's like a person being cut by a weapon; even after healing, it's impossible to make them immune to further damage from the weapon.

This patient may be a fitness enthusiast, but excessive exercise is not entirely beneficial.

"Doctor, I really can't stop my daily training. Is there any way I can train without going bald?"

The bald man scratched his head, and a strand of hair fell out.

"So how do you train every day?"

"100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, plus a 10-kilometer run every day."

The bald man answered seriously.

"Where have I heard of this training method before..."

Bai Zhi touched her chin, but when she tried to think about it carefully, the mental fatigue from overworking her brain kept coming back, directly interrupting her thoughts.

"Actually, it's alright. This kind of training is already a warm-up level in the Cloud Cavalry. However, if this gentleman is an outsider, he should pay attention to his running. It would be better for his knees to complete the 10 kilometers in two sessions."

Yanqing, who was standing next to him, added a couple of sentences. He also swung his sword countless times every day and did not miss any of the required training.

"Thank you, young man. I'll definitely be more careful when I get back. By the way, doctor, how much is the consultation fee?"

The bald man asked seriously, while taking out his wallet from his pocket.

"Money? No need for that, just consider it a free clinic."

Bai Zhi said indifferently, "The consultation fee at Dan Ding Si is only a few dollars. Even if the base price is increased a hundredfold, it's still not as much as the automatic appreciation of her assets."

She was simply fulfilling her duties as deputy general and alleviating some of the problems caused by the massive influx of people in Luofu.

"Ah, doctor, you are so generous. I will definitely come to help if I encounter any problems in the future."

"Alright, alright, I see you bought so much stuff, you must be in a hurry to get home, so don't waste any more time here. While you're at it, please call out to the patients behind you."

Bai Zhi pointed to the items that the bald man had placed on the ground, which looked like discounted goods.

"Thank you, doctor. Sorry to bother you!"

The bald man stood up, bowed deeply, and then walked out carrying the bag.

After calling out to the patients behind him to come in, the bald man stepped out of the room.

"what?"

He looked back at the small building with some surprise, and saw that it did not look like a clinic with many patients queuing up.

Instead, it resembles a dilapidated house that has been abandoned for a long time.
