Collapse of Iron: The Immortal Boat Life of the Envoy of the Order of Fertility

In the end, Lu Qing did not explain anything to the parent. He felt that as soon as he explained, things would definitely go wrong, and he might even have to go to the Ten Kings Division or the Land Horizon Division.

He simply pulled Yun Li away, not giving the parent a chance to continue speaking, nor giving Yun Li a chance to refute.

"Renqing, do I look like you? Why did that woman think I was your daughter?"

Yun Li was puzzled and in a bad mood.

The excitement after seeing Qing Qing disappeared in an instant.

It's not my eldest sister. How did you know that? What father-daughter relationship? Stop talking nonsense, okay? I'm suing you for defamation! Why don't you say it's something else?

"Alike? I don't know. Maybe that older sister is saying that we're a good match. Standing together, it reminds people that we're companions, that we're together."

Lu Qing carefully chose his words so that Yun Li could understand without being too direct.

It is always better to say some things in a more obscure way, so that people can think more.

"Yeah, that's it..."

"By the way, Yunli, do you want to go to Yaoqing for some fun? I'd like to go with you. I heard that Feiyu Lake there is a rare and beautiful sight."

"Feiyu Lake? I've heard of it; it's really beautiful. But, Qingqing, you're not the type to travel around, are you? You clearly prefer staying where you live."

"Tell me, do you have any other purpose?" Yun Li put her hands on her hips and glanced at Qing, very confidently.

"You guessed it right. I did have a purpose for going to Yaoqing this time... But I went there to find a chef who cooks delicious food. I'll then tie him up and have him cook for us."

Upon hearing this, Yun Li became interested and instantly looked forward to Yao Qing's trip.

(^.^) Take me out to play as soon as you come back. Please forgive me for not coming back for a year.

Yunli thought so.

"As for Feiyu Lake, isn't that place quite famous? So I thought I'd stop by and have some fun."

"Oh, that's alright."

"So do you want to go play?"

"I'll go wherever you go, Qing." Yun Li said naively.

"You're the clingy one." Lu Qing didn't expect that he would be attracted by this girl.

"Okay then, go prepare the luggage you need to bring. I'll help you apply for leave from school and take care of Huai Yan."

"Okay."

……

"Renqing, you said you wanted to take Yunli to Yaoqing?"

"Yes, Master Yan, is there any problem?"

"That's not a problem, but I want to ask you for a favor."

"Master Yan, you said that I will naturally help you in whatever way I can."

"A few hundred years ago, I temporarily resigned from my position as a general after several decades. With nothing to do, I went to Yaoqing to travel for a few months. There, I made a friend."

"He was still relatively young at the time, and aspired to be a doctor who could save the world. However, his talent was limited, and it was difficult for him to fulfill his ambition."

"Afterwards, due to some unforeseen circumstances, I became a general of Zhu Ming again and left Yao Qing."

"But that young friend is quite enthusiastic. He often sends me letters, and this has continued for hundreds of years without interruption. He tells me everything he thinks and feels."

"Letters can be said to be a tradition maintained by the Xianzhou since its inception, but the people of the Xianzhou today no longer like this thankless cross-galaxy letter.

It takes a long time and the risk of loss is high, so it is far less convenient than using jade to transmit information.

Therefore, I really like this interesting junior and am happy to exchange letters with him."

"It seems like several decades ago, he said he had accepted a genius fox disciple. He was extremely talented and had great ambitions. He also had the same desire to help the world as him."

"You're still young, so you might not understand that feeling. It's that feeling of seeing a younger person that's like seeing your younger self. You want to pass on everything you've learned to them."

"That's what my friend did... Now I have to call him my old friend, as his time is almost up."

"He was very successful, and he always boasted to me that he had a proud disciple. I was very envious, but at the same time, I was genuinely happy for him."

"However...his disciple has always had a serious heart disease, and he wants me to help."

"Master Yan, it seems that heart disease is beyond my ability, right?"

"That's true, but I want to ask for your help not because of your ability, but because of your experience."

"Do I have any experience?"

"The Third Harvest War."

"?"

"The disciple of my old friend has always had a heart disease, but the outbreak of this disease requires a fuse, and the fuse for that disciple was the arrow of light shot by the Emperor's bow during the Third War of the Abundant People."

"He was a frontline doctor. He had experienced that battle. All the frontline soldiers on the Immortal Boat who were unable to evacuate in time died at that time, and many of them were treated by him."

"Those who had finally survived the battlefield were healed by him and then rushed back to the front lines... However, this time, the soldiers who went to the front lines could not return."

The more Huai Yan spoke, the more familiar he felt. It seemed that there were many people like him in Luofu.

"So he felt his medical practice was meaningless and fell into self-doubt? He'll never practice medicine again?"

"how do you know?"

"There are many people like this. There are also many people who have lost the meaning of life because of Teigumi Mitsuya. I have encountered them and solved their problems... This is not just a problem for one person, but a problem for everyone in this era."

"If even doctors can't heal themselves, how can we expect the general public to heal? Treating one person is useless; it's the entire era that's truly sick."

"I can save him, but who will heal the wounds in people's hearts?"

Huai Yan listened to what Lu Qing said and sighed silently.

"Is that what you think? I understand. Go and have fun. That's all I have to say."

Yan Qing also shook his head: "Master Yan, when did I say I wouldn't go to save people?"

"? Didn't you say that saving one person wouldn't change anything?"

"Saving one person won't change anything, but at least you tried to change it, didn't you? It's better than doing nothing, right?"

"The best doctors heal the nation, the lower doctors heal illnesses, and the middle doctors heal people. But can't the best doctors heal illnesses? Can't they heal people? Isn't it unrealistic to give up small changes in the present for a grand ideal?"

"So, Elder Yan, I will go and save that person. At least I will try."

"You are a practical person, much better than those who only talk about ideals."

"Yes. By the way, can you tell me the name of the person you asked me to save?"

"Jiao Qiu—now living in seclusion in Feiyu Lake. When you arrive in Yaoqing, my old friend will come to show you the way."
