Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

Chapter 229 You Look Like My Sister

A day later, Gao Yutang received a reply from Lu Ke'er.

When he got the antidote formula, he was ecstatic and immediately started to prepare the medicine.

He didn't have those rare herbs on hand, so he immediately wrote a letter to his grandfather in the capital, who was now the head of the High Court, to ask for them. At the same time, at the suggestion of General Rong, he also wrote a special letter to report the poison to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

A day later, Ye Feng received a letter from Xiao Hei.

After flying for three consecutive days and three nights, when Xiao Hei arrived at Ye Feng's desk, he was so tired that he lay down directly, with almost no strength to move.

Night Breeze gently stroked Xiao Hei's feathers and took off the letter tied to its feet.

The letter that Xiao Hei worked so hard to deliver must be very urgent and important.

He felt a little nervous, and the first person he thought of was Lu Ke'er.

Could something have happened to Ke'er?

Strangely, the few secret guards he left behind to protect her hadn't sent any news. Could it be that something unexpected had happened, preventing them from delivering the message in time?

After taking the letter, he quickly read it through. His mood suddenly relaxed, and then suddenly tensed.

"It's Yaowang Valley again!" He handed the letter to Sikong Xiang beside him, asking him to understand the situation as well.

After reading it, Sikong Xiang's frown relaxed slightly.

"Your Highness, fortunately we have Miss Lu. She has prepared the antidote. Master Gao is still short of a few medicines. As long as we find the medicine and send it to him, this crisis will be resolved."

Ye Feng sat on the soft chair, his slender white fingers tapping the table lightly. He pondered for a while and said, "Just defending will only make the opponent more arrogant."

Sikong Xiang's eyes lit up: "What does your highness mean?"

"I will make Yaowang Valley reap what it has sown." Ye Feng retracted his fingers, with amazing momentum, "Let Chu Ying lead the Shenlong Guard to Qianlong City to help Rong Zhiyan and Gao Yutang."

Sikong Xiang said respectfully: "Your Highness is wise."

Since Your Highness is going to take action to destroy the Medicine King Valley, he must have a plan in mind.

The Dragon Guards are a mysterious force that protects His Majesty. There are only 200 of them, but each of them possesses unique skills and is highly skilled in martial arts. They are very loyal to the Ye Clan of Qi State and have always been used as the emperor's secret guards. When the capital city was in turmoil, Emperor Zheng'an Ye Xiuyuan gave half of the Dragon Guards to Ye Feng, asking them to protect Ye Feng's safety.

Now, Ye Feng has used the entire team, which shows his fear and importance towards Yaowang Valley.

Lingxia Village.

Lu Ke'er and Chi Li talked about the things sent by Gao Yutang.

"This Medicine King Valley seems to be a cancer." Thinking of the control of the killers by the Medicine King Valley and the several poisonings that might be related to the Medicine King Valley, Lu Ke'er felt a little heavy. "Their poisons are endless, and they are so vicious that they don't take human life seriously. Chi Li, I'm very worried. For some reason, Yu Tang directly confronted them. Yu Tang has become a thorn in the eyes of the Medicine King Valley. Sooner or later, they will deal with Yu Tang."

"Ke'er, do you want to destroy it?"

"what?"

"Since Medicine King Valley is a cancer in this world, then we should dig it out and prevent it from harming the world again."

"I haven't actually thought of this step yet." Lu Ke'er said in surprise, "I'm just a little farm girl..."

"Medicine King Valley not only regards Gao Yutang as a thorn in their side, I think they have also regarded you as a thorn in their side." Chi Li smiled, "But don't worry too much, don't we still have us? Huanyan and I hate Medicine King Valley to the core. They have long wanted to destroy Medicine King Valley."

Lu Ke'er was a little stunned: "But there are many poisons in Medicine King Valley. The ones we found may only be a small part of them. We don't know how many deadly poisons they have..."

"Don't we have you?" Chi Li looked at Lu Ke'er gently, with a look of pride, expectation and gratitude. "You were born to be their nemesis. During the years when I was forced to be a killer, my heart was filled with despair. I didn't know when I could live a normal life again, and I didn't know how long the dark life of a killer would last. Sometimes, I thought that maybe until the moment of death, I would not be able to get rid of the poison in my body and get rid of the control of the Soul Seeking Tower. Later, we destroyed the Soul Seeking Tower and continued to investigate. We found that the poison that controlled us came from the Medicine King Valley. Later, we found that the owner of the Medicine King Valley and the owner of the Soul Seeking Tower were the same person. Therefore, the Medicine King Valley is our enemy! Before, we were not sure that we could take revenge, but now that you can develop an antidote to their poison, our chances of winning are much greater."

"I am so important?" Lu Ke'er really didn't expect that she could play an active role in eliminating violence and maintaining peace.

"Ke'er, do you know that Yaowang Valley has colluded with Chenwang's rebels and has become a major threat to the court? Even if we don't take action, the court will take action to eradicate it soon."

Lu Ke'er was stunned again.

She was just a little peasant girl, doing some small business out of interest and hobby, and saving a few patients by the way. How did she get involved with the affairs of the court?

"Ke'er, actually..." Chi Li wanted to confess Ye Feng's identity to Lu Ke'er, but he changed his mind and swallowed the words back.

"What's wrong?" Lu Ke'er couldn't help wondering when she saw that he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Nothing." Chi Li looked at her with gentle eyes, "Don't worry, we will all be by your side to protect you. No matter how vicious the Medicine King Valley's methods are, we will not let them succeed."

Lu Ke'er's ability has already caused the Medicine King Valley to be wary. They have sent people to harm Lu Ke'er, but because they failed, they will definitely take action in the future.

Before Ye Feng returned to Beijing, Chi Li promised him that he would protect Lu Ke'er's safety and not let anyone hurt her. In fact, without Ye Feng, he would not let Lu Ke'er get hurt at all.

"Chi Li, your skills are unfathomable, and you should have a wider world for you to explore. Wouldn't it be too unfair for you to stay with me?" Lu Ke'er couldn't help but ask.

She had saved Chi Li, and also saved Huan Yan and the others. She had saved their lives. But Chi Li's attitude towards her was different from Huan Yan and the others.

Although a person who saved her life should be repaid with gratitude, Chi Li was a little too good to her. He was very concerned about her life and her safety. Every time she went out, he would stay by her side to protect her. His kindness to her did not seem to be just for the sake of repaying a favor, but seemed to have another deeper purpose...

She had also wondered if he had fallen in love with her, but when he looked at her, there was concern, appreciation, and intimacy, but no ambiguity.

She couldn't help being confused.

"How can I feel wronged? I am very happy living with you. A peaceful and tranquil life like this has always been what I long for."

Chi Li looked at her with deep and complex eyes, as if he was looking at her, but also as if he was looking at another person through her.

Then, he smiled slightly, his voice trembling a little: "You are usually casual, but sometimes, you are sensitive and delicate. I know you have always been wondering why I have been helping you and protecting you. Well, you will know sooner or later. Because..." He paused and whispered, "Because every time I see you, I think of my sister, my dear."

Lu Ke'er was startled when she heard this: "Where is she now?"

Chi Li's eyes were filled with sorrow. "She died. She died a few years ago, before I became a killer. She committed suicide. I buried her with my own hands."

"How could it be?" Lu Ke'er didn't want to believe it.

Chi Li was just 20 years old, and his sister was not even 20. How could a young girl in the prime of her life end her own life?

"We are orphans. We were taken in by a martial arts gang when we were wandering. The gang took us in because they saw my abilities. I have been extremely strong and quick-witted since I was a child. According to the gang leader, I was born to fight and kill. He taught me martial arts for several years and asked me to work for them. I would sell myself to them. As long as they treat my sister well, I would do anything. But I didn't expect..."

Having said this, Chi Li fell into painful memories and his voice trembled slightly.

"An official saw my sister by chance and coveted her beauty. So, in order to please the official, the gang leader took advantage of my absence one day to knock my sister unconscious, tied her up and sent her to the official's bed. My sister is not like me. She has no martial arts skills and is powerless. After being abused by the official, she couldn't bear the humiliation and hanged herself the next day. When I got back, it was too late."

Chi Li's eyes were red, and she spoke with hatred: "My poor sister, she just turned thirteen. That official was lustful, and that gang leader was greedy. They were the murderers who killed her. I killed the gang leader and the official with my own hands, and then buried my sister with my own hands. I also hate myself for not taking good care of her, let alone protecting her."

After saying that, he hit his head hard.

"It's not your fault." Lu Ke'er was grief-stricken and hurriedly grabbed his hand to stop his extreme behavior.

"This is not your fault. The murderers are the people who really hurt your sister, and the cannibalistic world. Your sister definitely doesn't want you to live an unhappy life, right? So, you have to live well, including your sister's share."

"I had always thought that once I had saved some money, I would take my sister away from that gang and live a free life. I was naive after all..." Chi Li said in a low voice, "After I avenged my sister, I lived like a walking corpse for a long time. It was at that time that the Soul-Seizing Tower took advantage of me, poisoned me, and forced me to work for them. Many times, I didn't want to live anymore. But for some reason, I couldn't make up my mind to leave this world. I always felt that someone was waiting for me in a corner of this world. It wasn't until I met you that I realized that maybe I was living just for the moment to see you."

"Do I really look like your sister?"

"Yeah, they are about 70% alike. When I saw you for the first time, I really thought it was my sister who came back to life. However, after getting to know each other for a while, I found that your personalities are completely different. She is weak, while you are strong. She is weak and needs to cling to a tree like a vine, while you are a towering tree. Not only do you not need to cling to anyone to survive, but many people also need to cling to you."

"You think so highly of me?" Lu Ke'er was a little surprised by his praise.

"You deserve the admiration and respect of everyone in this world."

Lu Ke'er felt warm at heart when she heard this, and then she thought of his sister. She couldn't help but sigh deeply, and an inexplicable sadness surged in her heart.

Different from the era she lived in in her previous life, this world has low productivity, people's lives are difficult, wars are frequent, major forces are constantly fighting, and various natural disasters are also coming one after another. It is really not easy for people to survive in the cracks between various natural and man-made disasters.

What about her?

Even if she has extraordinary medical skills and special abilities, and may have amazing wealth in the future, can she really gain a place in this troubled world and find a pure land in the chaos?

But on second thought, everything depends on human effort. Isn't she working hard for it now?

Only mediocre people worry about themselves.

"Ke'er, I have something to discuss with you." Chi Li seemed to have made up his mind and said to her.

"What's the matter? Tell me." Lu Ke'er pulled herself back to her senses and asked.

"I want to take a few people away for a while. However, I will leave Huanyan behind."

Lu Keer blinked: "You want to bring people to help Gao Yutang deal with Yaowang Valley?"

"Yes." Chi Li smiled with relief, "Ke'er, you are always so perceptive."

Lu Ke'er also smiled: "You are free. Go ahead and do what you want to do without any worries. But be careful."

"Okay. Wait for our good news."

Five days later, the Dragon Guards, led by Chu Ying, arrived at Qianlong City, and along with them came all the medicinal herbs that Gao Yutang needed.
