Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

"Dad, you are confused!" Lu Ke'er said sternly and coldly, "Do you think that we can live a good life after you die? Do you think that the debt will be forgiven after death? Have you ever thought about our possible fate after you die? The house is gone, and mother will take us with her, wandering around, homeless. The world outside is so chaotic, and she is a woman with two underage children, what do you think will be the result?"

Lu Tianning opened his eyes in astonishment: "She...she can remarry with you."

"Remarry?" Lu Ke'er seemed to have heard a huge joke, and she wanted to knock Lu Tianning's stupid head off. "A weak woman with no power and nothing to her own, and with two burdens, do you think anyone would really want to marry her?"

"Your mother...your mother is so beautiful, so good..."

Lu Ke'er shook her head. It is true that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I am afraid that even if Ji's appearance is completely ruined one day, she will still be beautiful in Lu Tianning's heart.

Lu Ke'er looked directly into Lu Tianning's eyes and said word by word, "Mom is still so young and pretty, but she doesn't have a husband yet. As a widow, can you predict what might happen to her? She will either be violated or taken over by someone, or kidnapped and sold into a brothel, and then be trapped in a hell, a life worse than death. Xiaoxi and I, without a father or a mother, will also have a tragic ending. I may end up like mom, and Xiaoxi may not even have the chance to grow up."

"No...no, stop talking, stop talking!" Lu Tianning held his head with both hands and screamed in pain.

Was he wrong? He just wanted the three of them not to be dragged down by a loser like him. He just wanted his beloved family to start a new life. Was he wrong?

He really didn't want to hurt them.

"Alright, alright, Ke'er, stop talking." Ji hugged Lu Tianning distressedly, "Brother Tianning, if we have to die, let's die together! No matter what, we will not abandon you. You can't abandon us either!"

"Wow——" Lu Mingxi burst into tears, "Dad and Mom, you can't abandon Xiaoxi——"

The three hugged each other and cried.

Lu Ke'er really couldn't bear to look at it anymore.

It’s not a big deal, is it?

"Okay, stop crying!" She yelled and took out something from her arms. "Look, what is this?"

Three pairs of eyes turned to her face, and then turned to the object in her hands.

The air was silent for a few seconds.

Then a voice sounded.

"Ke'er, is this ginseng?" Lu Tianning rubbed his eyes in disbelief, "Am I dreaming?"

"Oh my god, Ke'er, where did you get this... this ginseng?" Ji stuttered, "How did you get ginseng?"

Both of them had seen ginseng, so they naturally recognized it.

"What is ginseng?" Lu Mingxi looked at this person and then that person. Seeing that the adults were all excited, he couldn't help but feel curious and expectant about the radish-like thing in his sister's hand.

But the radish hasn't grown up yet, it's too small and thin. It's not even enough to make a dish.

Lu Mingxi felt a little disgusted.

"Ginseng is our family's hope now." Lu Ke'er touched Lu Mingxi's little head.

This little kid's head feels nice to the touch, and she would feel a little uncomfortable if she didn't touch it.

"Ke'er, who gave it to you?" After Lu Tianning was excited, he calmed down and frowned, "We can't accept such a valuable thing."

Lu Ke'er almost laughed out of anger: "With our family's situation, who do you think would give us ginseng?"

"Then...how did that come about?" Lu Tianning asked awkwardly.

"I went up the mountain today and dug it up there."

Lu Tianning and Ji looked at each other.

My daughter is so lucky.

"Ke'er, how...how do you know ginseng?" No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Seeing her daughter in front of her, Ji always felt a sense of unfamiliarity.

"Mom, an old man who was collecting herbs in the neighboring village told me. I often go into the mountains to collect wild vegetables. One time, I happened to meet this old man. He was too tired to walk, so I helped him carry the medicine basket. The old man told me a lot about herbs, including ginseng." In order to dispel Ji's doubts, Lu Ke'er had to make up a story. Anyway, they couldn't really go find this old man to ask.

"Our...our Ke'er is so smart." Lu Tianning secretly sighed at his daughter's good luck.

"I'll use these two ginsengs to exchange one for money and one for my father." Lu Ke'er had already made a plan. "I guess a ginseng as old as a hundred years old should be worth a lot of money."

"Ke'er," Ji's voice was trembling, "You... dug up two?"

Just now she only saw the ginseng in her daughter's hand, but didn't see clearly how many ginsengs there were.

“A hundred...a hundred-year-old ginseng?” Even Lu Tianning felt like he was dreaming.

Before he was injured, he had traveled a lot and was well-informed. Many pharmacies bought ginseng that was more than a few decades old, which was more valuable. Ginseng that was a hundred years old was even more valuable.

With this ginseng, they can pay off most of their debts and the house should be saved.

"No." Lu Tianning made a prompt decision, "Use these two ginsengs to exchange for money, don't leave them for me."

"Dad, paying off the debt is important, but your health is also important. This ginseng is extremely nutritious and will help you recover." Lu Ke'er insisted, "We will have the opportunity to make money in the future, but this ginseng may not be available every time."

Now that we have encountered it, of course we have to make good use of it.

"Ke'er, Dad's injury...can't be cured. It would be a waste if I used this ginseng." Lu Tianning was very pleased to see that his daughter was thinking of him. Because of this, he couldn't be so selfish to occupy this rare medicinal material.

"Dad, your injury may not be incurable." Lu Ke'er rolled her eyes and said, "That old man once told me that there are miraculous doctors in this world with extraordinary medical skills. Maybe one day, we will meet one, then there will be hope, right?"

These words were like a shot of adrenaline, stirring up a bit of vitality in Lu Tianning's numb and almost dead heart.

His eyes gradually brightened.

"Is there really such a miracle doctor?" he confirmed to his daughter.

"Of course there is. There was Bian Que in ancient times, and of course there are other miracle doctors in this world today. Oh, I remember now, my grandfather mentioned to me that the miracle doctor was called Lingkong. Your injury cannot be cured because we haven't met a miracle doctor. Ordinary doctors certainly can't cure such a serious injury." Lu Ke'er suddenly had an idea and used the name of the Lingkong Sect.

"Lingkong Miracle Doctor, Lingkong Miracle Doctor." Lu Tianning murmured to himself.

He believed his daughter's words.

Like all the people in desperate situations in this world, he would try every means to grab any glimmer of hope.

Lingkong the Miracle Doctor is his hope.

"But where can we find him?" Lu Tianning thought about it and became worried again, "The miracle doctor is like a dragon that can only be seen from head to tail. We are just ordinary people. We may never meet him in our lifetime."

"Dad, there is hope as long as we are alive." Lu Ke'er rarely looked serious. "Only as long as we are alive can there be hope. Dad, Mom has given so much for you, you can't give up."

Lu Tianning lowered his head in shame.
