Chapter 11: The Interdimensional Clinic Opens

  After leaving the scene, Wu Rui did not return to his rental house. Although he had just entered the world, he was not foolish. Today, he had caused this trouble, and the police would certainly come to his door. Wu Rui did not want to deal with these officials.

  He came to the small stream on the outskirts of E City with his Taoist bag, doing nothing. The creek water is very clear due to the mountain spring water and no pollution, and the fish in the water and the rocks at the bottom of the water are faintly visible. In front is a mountain, behind is a green rice field, and the shore embankment is full of lush green grass, a rare beautiful landscape painting.

  Wu Rui lay on the grass, gazing up at the azure sky, but his mind was elsewhere. He had been in E City for over half a month now, with nothing to show for it despite having medical skills - he couldn't even get a medical license, which made him, as a descendant of Shen Nong, feel utterly ashamed.

  With nothing to do, Wu Rui gently stroked the ancient ring on his left middle finger, a Minna Ring given by the old man. The space inside was not large, only a few cubic meters, but it was already sufficient. Moreover, with the decline of the Xiuzhen world, even storage bags were hard to come by, let alone Minna Rings.

  As soon as he moved his mind, the black bead appeared in Wu Rui's hand out of thin air. The whole body was black, and it emitted a kind of ancient aura despite its dull appearance. This object had no name, not even the old man could tell what it was, only saying that it was a treasure passed down by the sect for thousands of years, but he didn't know how to use it. Wu Rui once suspected that this was a prank played by his predecessor in the sect.

  But thinking of the old man's serious face at the time, Wu Rui knew that Zhu Zi was not simple.

  The black bead was unresponsive to Blood Recognition, and couldn't be refined with True Essence. Even fire and knife couldn't leave a mark on it. The mysterious feeling it gave Wu Rui only made him more eager to uncover its secrets. As a result, whenever he had some free time, Wu Rui would take it out and play with it, making it a habit.

  "What is this bead after all?" Wu Rui carefully examined the black bead in front of his eyes, as he was now lying on the grass, coincidentally at noon, the sun, the black bead and the corner of his eye were on the same straight line.

  The unexpected finally happened, just when Wu Rui was about to give up, a small black whirlpool suddenly formed on the black bead. At first, it was very small, so small that it was hard to catch with the naked eye, but as time passed, this black hole grew bigger and bigger, giving Wu Rui the feeling that it wanted to swallow him whole.

  At first, Wu Rui was indeed frightened, stemming from the instinct of fear towards unknown things. He almost threw away the bead in his hand. However, Wu Rui was not an ordinary person after all, so he quickly suppressed the fear in his heart and let the black bead change. Wu Rui vaguely had a feeling that the thousand-year-old mystery of this black bead might be solved by himself today!

  "Boom!" Wu Rui only felt a buzzing in his head, and then he felt like his body was being sucked into a black hole, his consciousness temporarily lapsing into unconsciousness. At the same time, miraculously, Wu Rui, who had been lying on the mountain stream embankment, suddenly vanished into thin air, and the black hole along with the black pearl also dispersed into the sky.

  "Ding! The main program of the clinic has been activated, and the host is a human being who cultivates the 'Shennong Jing', fully meeting the activation conditions. Activation successful."

  "A reward of a primary clinic with one room, one table and two chairs."

  ……

  Wu Rui slowly came to, but what entered his eyes was no longer the blue sky and white clouds, nor the green mountains and clear waters. Instead, he found himself in a small, ancient-style room that was only two meters long and wide, with a total area of just four square meters. He was sitting on a taishi chair, with a redwood desk in front of him, and another chair across from him. The entire room was like this, simple and unadorned, without even a window or door, which made it seem strange.

  "Dimensional Clinic?" Wu Rui's eyes widened in shock, his mind momentarily unable to wrap around the situation, and he couldn't quite figure out what was going on. He secretly wondered if this was the space of that black bead. But what was the point of such a clinic? Not to mention the door, there wasn't even half a window hole; not to mention humans, even ants couldn't crawl in!

  "Hello, master. This is a dimensional clinic, also known as the black bead that you've been studying. Since you've passed the recognition program, you've been automatically absorbed into the clinic." A woman's voice echoed throughout the clinic, her tone pleasant but devoid of emotion, like a machine.

  Wu Rui was startled by the sudden sound and listened to the other's words, then raised an eyebrow and asked: "Who are you? The instrument spirit of the dimensional clinic?"

  As Wu Rui knew, only high-grade magical artifacts would have a spirit, and this self-proclaimed dimensional diagnostic bead in black was indeed a formidable artifact.

  "It can be understood this way, but to be precise, I'm just a program in the dimensional clinic, mainly providing query guidance services for the masters of primary clinics. It can be understood as a novice guide program. The master can also give me a name, which is convenient for daily inquiries." The female voice immediately responded to Wu Rui's inquiry.

  "Newbie guidance program?" Wu Rui only half-understood these terms, shook his dizzy head, and suddenly said: "In that case, I'll call you Instructor from now on!"

  "Naming successful, master can call me instructor from now on." The instructor's voice still didn't have a hint of emotion.

  However, Wu Rui obviously didn't have the mood to care about these things now. He immediately asked the biggest question in his mind: "Director, what is a Bitian Clinic? What's its purpose?"

  "The universe is composed of countless planes, just like the Milky Way plane where Earth is located is one of them. In addition to the Milky Way plane, there are countless other planes in the universe, including technology, cultivation, magic, aura, and primitive planes. The Plane Clinic is a space that can communicate with patients from all planes. Here, the owner can search for and treat patients from various planes, while also upgrading the clinic with accumulated points and earning various medical fees."

  "No... it can't be..." Even with Wu Rui's high cultivation level, he couldn't help but stare in shock at this moment. How could his own sect possibly pass down such a powerful treasure? One that could communicate with countless spaces and treat illnesses? And even collect medical fees? This sounded utterly unbelievable! So Wu Rui couldn't help but ask another question: "This black bead has been passed down for thousands of years, why has no one ever opened it?"

  "To make the dimensional clinic recognize its owner, a corresponding opportunity is needed. Just now, the owner placed the physical body of the clinic, that pearl, under the sun and aligned it with his head in a straight line, initiating the recognition program of the dimensional clinic, thus becoming the owner of the dimensional clinic." The instructor replied patiently to Wu Rui's question.

  "It turns out to be like this......" Wu Rui seemed to understand but not quite, and because there were too many doubts in his heart, he didn't know what to ask for a while. He turned to the instructor and asked: "How do I search for patients on other surfaces? And how should I treat the target?"

  "Master, take a look at this." As soon as the instructor's voice fell, a virtual screen immediately formed in front of Wu Rui, displaying the "Host Attributes" panel with the following content:

  Level: Elementary

  Host: Wu Rui

  Cultivation: The second layer of "Shennong Jing" is complete, and the doctor's title is obtained.

  Basic configuration: a primary clinic room, one desk, two chairs.

  Upgrade conditions: The system automatically searches for primary patients. One point is awarded for curing one person, and one point is deducted for failure. There is no time limit on the number of people, and upgrading is possible when 10 points are accumulated.

  It was a very simple and clear attribute panel, but it was extraordinary. It even listed his own name, cultivation base, and cultivation method one by one, which made Wu Rui sigh again at the power and mystery of the Bitface Clinic.

  On the virtual screen, in addition to 'Host Attributes', there is also a 'Search Patient' text. Wu Rui intuitively stretched out his hand and lightly touched it, resulting in the screen quickly switching to display four large red characters: 'Search Immediately'. Below that was a line of small text prompting: Primary clinics do not have active search permissions, all are system-driven patient screening, the overall steps are as follows:

  1: Confirm 'Immediate Search', the system randomly selects a patient each time and must be treated, otherwise it is considered a failure.

  2: Examine the condition. After selecting 'Start Treatment', the target will be absorbed into the clinic space, and the host can view the patient's condition up close.

  3: Negotiate compensation and sign an agreement. Before treatment, the compensation must be negotiated and a treatment agreement signed, and neither party shall breach the terms of the agreement.

  4: Start treatment.

  5: Receive compensation. After sending the patient back, the patient has one day to prepare the corresponding compensation. After the time is up, the rules will automatically put the negotiated compensation items into the clinic, and the patient cannot regret it, nor can the host overcharge.

  Note: The time for receiving payment can be extended, but the payment will also increase accordingly. The specific amount is: normal payment multiplied by the number of days. If the patient refuses or fails to pay the agreed-upon payment, the clinic rules will impose penalties.

  In addition: In order to achieve the goal of absolute fair trading in Bitface Clinic, the host follows all the above steps.

  After going through the steps above, Wu Rui had a preliminary understanding of the Bitface Clinic and at least knew how to operate it. Taking a deep breath, he suppressed his excitement, agitation, and worries, and his fingers lightly touched the four characters "Search Immediately".
