Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

Under the halo of the torch, the girl's delicate eyebrows and eyes seemed to be painted with a layer of dazzling colors, and her phoenix eyes were dazzling, like the most precious gems in the world. Her thin back was straight, and her petite body exuded an amazing aura!

The door behind me creaked open.

The little kid came out sleepily.

Seeing the torches and figures in the yard, he turned pale with shock and rushed towards Ye Feng: "Big Brother..."

Ji, who was about to reach out and hug him, said: "..."

Ye Feng regained his composure, picked up the little boy, touched his little face affectionately with one hand, and comforted him in a gentle voice: "Don't be afraid, everyone is here, and the bad guy has been caught."

"Where's my sister?"

"Your sister is beating up the bad guys!"

Looking back at the courtyard, the situation has quietly changed.

Everyone was intimidated by Lu Ke'er's aura and moved by her words. The cowardice and fear that they had in their hearts quietly disappeared, and a sense of righteousness rose involuntarily in their chests and abdomens.

"That's right! We are lowly villagers, but we are also human beings! We have no reason to be bullied and we have to swallow our anger, or even protect and condone them!"

Lei Zheng said loudly: "When walking in this world, we still have to abide by the word reason! Justice is clear, retribution is inevitable, and there is a god above our heads!"

Everyone echoed.

Lei Zheng glanced at the pale-faced Lin Yunmu and said coldly, "Tie him up and lock him up in the ancestral hall first. When daybreak comes, we will escort him to the county government office!"

"I'll go with you!" Lu Ke'er said hurriedly.

"Let me join you." A gentle voice came from the corridor.

When everyone looked, they found an extraordinary figure standing in the shadow of the yard. Although their features could not be seen clearly, their extraordinary posture and temperament made everyone's heart tremble. They all held their breath and fell silent.

"Xiao Xiao, you didn't sleep well tonight. You should get some more sleep tomorrow." Lu Ke'er didn't want her patient's condition to relapse during her treatment.

"I'm much better now. I'm fine. Don't worry." Hearing Lu Ke'er's caring words, Ye Feng's lips curled up slightly.

Lu Mingxi glanced at Ye Feng and felt strange.

A thief broke into the house and he was scared to death, but the eldest brother seems to be in a good mood now.

Only then did everyone realize that this young man was Lu Tianning's distant relative who had come to visit him recently.

Even the distant relatives are so extraordinary, it is conceivable that the Lu family is not an ordinary family.

…………

The next day, at dawn, Lu Ke'er got up, dressed, and made a fire to cook.

She cooked a pot of wild vegetable and lean meat porridge. The minced meat was tenderloin, chopped into small pieces, and dotted in the white and green rice porridge, which was not only fragrant but also looked very tempting.

She mixed the flour again. While the dough was resting, she prepared the meat filling and broth, added various seasonings to the meat filling, and added broth in small portions, stirring constantly to allow the meat to fully absorb the broth. After preparing all these, the dough was ready, and she rolled it into round strips, and then divided it into small doughs. Next, she used a rolling pin to roll each small dough thin, wrapped it with fillings, and sealed it.

She was so focused on making breakfast that she didn't notice a figure standing at the kitchen door.

Ye Feng stood at the door, quietly staring at the girl busy at the stove. The mist was thick, making the girl seem to be in the clouds, like a dream. Her profile was very beautiful, with a straight nose, jade-like cheeks, and long and curled black eyelashes that trembled gently like butterfly feathers.

Her hair was black and shiny, tied up in a simple bun with a wooden hairpin. A few strands of black hair fell from behind her ears, brushing against her graceful swan-like neck. Her sleeves were rolled up, revealing a white wrist. Her slender and flexible fingers flew up and down, as if they had magical powers. In a short while, beautiful steamed buns appeared under her fingertips.

She was wearing a straw hairpin and a cloth skirt, without any jewelry, but in Ye Feng's eyes, she was radiant and had an extraordinary temperament, which no other noble lady in the capital could compare to.

After Lu Ke'er put the dumplings into the steamer one by one, closed the lid, and turned around, she was startled to see Ye Feng at the door.

"What are you doing standing there? Why don't you say anything?" She glared at him in reproach.

"Sorry, scared you?"

Ye Feng asked, his eyes seemed to be glued to her face. But in his heart, he thought that the angry expression was also very beautiful.

"How long have you been standing there?"

"Not long... just arrived."

"Oh." Lu Ke'er nodded, and while busy with the work at hand, she asked him, "Is Xiaoxi still sleeping?"

"Yes. He was talking in his sleep when I got up."

"This kid..." Lu Ke'er smiled, chopping radishes deftly, and said, "Last night he insisted on going to the county government office with us in the morning. If he can't get up this morning and can't go, don't cry then."

Ye Feng asked in surprise: "He would cry just for such a small matter?"

"Yes. What child doesn't cry?" Lu Ke'er glanced at him and smiled, "Did you cry when you were a child?"

"I..." Ye Feng paused, his eyes flashing, "I cried too."

As far as he could remember, he seldom cried for such trivial matters. But he cried quite a lot when he was a child. He cried when his nanny died, when his guard was seriously injured trying to save him, and when he was in unbearable pain after being poisoned...

But after he turned ten, he never cried again.

Because the emperor said that as a king, one should not show emotions, and should not shed tears easily.

As expected, Xiaoxi hadn't woken up until everyone was having breakfast.

Ji was a little hesitant: "Children are always sleepy, why don't you let him sleep? Don't let him go with you today."

Lu Ke'er shook her head: "That won't do. The child will be heartbroken when he wakes up. Since we decided to go yesterday, we must do it today."

She got up and went to the room to call Xiaoxi. When Ye Feng saw her, he hurriedly followed without thinking.

In the room, Xiaoxi was lying on the bed with her mouth slightly open, sleeping soundly.

"Xiao Xi, get up." Lu Ke'er called him.

Xiao Xi frowned, turned over and continued to sleep.

"Xiao Xi, your big brother and I are going to the county town. If you don't get up, you won't be able to go with us."

Xiaoxi opened her eyes with great effort.

But he was so sleepy. He wanted to go to the county town but also wanted to continue sleeping. He was so sad that he wanted to cry.

"Don't cry." Seeing Xiaoxi pouted and was about to cry, Lu Ke'er suddenly felt overwhelmed.

"If you cry, I won't take you with me."

She really has no patience to coax her child. Xiaoxi is very sensible and well-behaved most of the time, but if she doesn't get enough sleep, she will be very irritable when she wakes up.

"Let's do this, let Xiaoxi sleep first. When we set off later, I will hold Xiaoxi and bring some dry food for the road. When Xiaoxi wakes up, she can eat when she is hungry." Ye Feng hurriedly walked forward, patted Xiaoxi's back soothingly, and said in a gentle voice.

Xiaoxi fell into a deep sleep again under his gentle patting.

"Can you do it?" Lu Ke'er's face was full of doubt.

"Why not?" Ye Feng's face turned red.

Men can't say no.

"That's fine. The poison in your body has been basically controlled. Proper exercise will also be good for you." Lu Ke'er hesitated for only a moment before agreeing.

Ye Feng couldn't help but get excited when he heard this: "The poison in my body... is really under control?"

"Ah."

"No need to take medicine to suppress it anymore?"

"All medicines are poisonous. The medicine I'm giving you now is to nourish your body, not to suppress toxicity. However, there are many kinds of poisons in your body, and it's a bit difficult for me to remove them. It will take at least half a year to completely eliminate them."

Ye Feng became even more excited. He could hardly believe his ears.

Only half a year?

That's incredibly fast.

In the past few days, Lu Ke'er gave him acupuncture and bloodletting to detoxify him every day. But he never asked her about his physical treatment. Maybe subconsciously, he had given up hope and had a mentality of letting nature take its course.

Because even the Imperial Doctor Gao, who was known as the best medical expert in Qi State, said that the poison in his body could not be cured and could only be suppressed by using poison to fight poison. He even heard rumors that he would not live past the age of 18. But the girl in front of him said that the poison in his body would be completely eliminated in half a year.

He no longer had to endure every day in such agony.

He no longer had to live every day as if it were his last.

He still has tomorrow, he still has a future, he still has hope!

The numb and dry heart was suddenly filled with vitality as if it was injected with a spiritual spring.

He really wanted to hug the girl in front of him tightly, wanted to hold her and scream, and share his inner joy with her. But...

She'll be terrified, right?

The expression on her face was still so calm, as if she was unaware of the impact and hope she brought to a person who was on the verge of death and ready to die at any time.

………………

Before leaving, Lu Ke'er returned the human skin mask to him.

Ye Feng was stunned.

He thought the mask had been washed away by the river.

"Please keep it for me. I won't wear it for the time being." He shook his head.

Some villagers had seen him last night, and although the light was dim, there were still a few people with good eyesight who could see most of his appearance. Wearing this mask now would seem unnecessary.

"Then you should keep this badge." Lu Ke'er took out the badge again.

Ye Feng raised his eyelids slightly, his black eyes flickering.

He thought that his badge was also lost in the river, but he didn't expect that she had taken it too.

He suddenly smiled and said, "Please keep this for me too."

Lu Ke'er was slightly surprised: "Are you sure? This badge is hidden in the secret pocket of your belt. I think it must be very important to you. I should have returned it to you the day you woke up, but I was so busy these days that I forgot."

Ye Feng nodded: "Well, this waist badge is indeed very important to me. I have carried it with me since I was a child. However... you saved my life, and I have no way to repay you. This waist badge is my thank you gift."

Lu Ke'er's eyes widened suddenly, staring at him in astonishment: "Are you kidding me? This plaque is not a gold medal, the carving is so poor, and the snake on it is carved so ugly. You can tell at a glance that it is worthless. You actually took this plaque as a thank-you gift? Don't you feel guilty?"

After that, she stuffed the sign back into his hand without further ado and said angrily, "I don't want this. Give me another gift!"

Ye Feng looked at her, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Did she really not understand or was she just pretending not to understand? How could the waist badge he gave her be an ordinary thing? But he didn't say much and still insisted on giving her the waist badge.

"Since I have decided to give it to you, I will not change my mind. Please accept it, maybe you will need it in the future." He said meaningfully.

Lu Ke'er was about to refuse, but Ji came over and urged her, "It's time to set off! Uncle Lizheng and the others are waiting."

Ye Feng took the opportunity to stuff the badge back into her hand without saying anything, then went into the house to hug Xiao Xi.

……

When Ye Feng followed Lu Ke'er, holding the still sleeping Xiao Xi, to the old camphor tree, a group of people were gathered outside the ox cart.

Lin Yunhua was sitting on the ground, crying and cursing, and her loud voice startled the birds in the forest, causing them to flap their wings and fly away.

"Oh my, this is so unfair! You bastards abused lynching and beat my brother so badly that he was covered in wounds! This is so unfair!"

"Lin Yunhua, can you please be reasonable? Your brother sneaked into the Lu family last night and did something bad. He deserves all this!"

"It's the Lu family again! What benefits did the Lu family give you? Why are you all siding with the Lu family and speaking for them?"

"You are so unreasonable, bitch!"

Amid the noise, someone saw Ye Feng and screamed, "Is that... that Young Master Xiao?"

Now the villagers all know that a distant relative of the Lu family has recently come. It is said that his surname is Xiao, and he is a teenage boy with a peerless appearance and extraordinary bearing.

Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I know that what he said is true.

Not only is it not false, it is even better than before.

She was beautiful, gentle as jade, and wearing a snow-white fur coat, she looked very noble. Her crystal clear and gentle eyes swept over, but it made everyone's heart tremble, as if they could feel a cold aura coming towards them.

Lin Yunhua, who was throwing a tantrum, was met with that stern gaze. She opened her mouth blankly and stopped cursing abruptly.

"Uncle Village Head, it's time for us to go." Ye Feng carried Xiao Xi and followed Lu Ke'er onto the ox cart, then spoke to Lei Zheng.

"Oh, okay, okay." Lei Zheng lowered his head and his attitude unconsciously became very respectful.

It was not until the ox cart had driven several feet out of Lingxia Village that he came to his senses.

This young man has such a strong aura that one can't help but admire him.

Today, the ox cart was booked by the village head. There were not many people on the cart. In addition to Old Jiangtou and the tied-up Lin Yunmu, there were Lei Zheng and two other villagers who came with him to help the Lu family last night. One of them was Lei Qi.

Lei Qi's home was far from Lu's, and when he got the news last night, everyone was about to disperse. When he learned that he would take Lin Yunmu to the county government office to report the case the next day, he volunteered to go with them.

He was the first non-Lu family member in the village to see Ye Feng. At that time, Ye Feng was still in a coma.

Meeting Lei Qi's cautious and scrutinizing gaze, Ye Feng frowned slightly.

"He is Uncle Lei Qi. He was the one who changed your wet clothes." Lu Ke'er came over and reminded him quietly in his ear.

The warm breath sprayed on his ears, carrying with it a strange scent mixed with the fragrance of medicine and flowers, and Ye Feng's ears turned red again.
