The Little Lucky Girl.

Su Qing originally thought that the matter had come to an end for the time being, but who knew that Lingxuan was not someone who would give up so easily.

Within a few days, rumors began to spread throughout the valley that Su Qing had become arrogant and was deliberately flaunting Third Senior Brother's care in front of Lingxuan, aiming to dominate the Divine Doctor Valley. These rumors spread like wildfire, and many disciples, unaware of the situation, looked at Su Qing with a certain unease. Su Qing felt annoyed, but she also knew that arguing at this moment would only make matters worse.

One day, while Su Qing was gathering herbs, she happened upon Lingxuan and several female disciples on the path ahead. Seeing her approach, Lingxuan's lips curled up with a subtle hint of pride, and she deliberately raised her voice and said, "Some people have little talent, but they're very good at climbing the ladder. I wonder when such people would appear in this peaceful place called Divine Doctor Valley." The female disciples followed suit and began to whisper.

Su Qing took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said calmly, "Sister, the innocent are innocent. If you think you can suppress me with these rumors, you are gravely mistaken. I am devoted to medicine and will not be disturbed by these unwarranted things. I also hope that Sister will not go further and further down this wrong path and lose her original intention."

Lingxuan's face darkened, and she was about to retort when a disciple suddenly ran over and said in a panic, "Oh no! The old Valley Master has suddenly fainted!" Everyone was shocked and dropped what they were doing to rush to Doctor Yue's residence. Su Qing's heart tightened, and he didn't care about the dispute with Lingxuan anymore, and hurried to follow.

Arriving at Divine Doctor Yue's residence, Su Qing anxiously asked, "Third Senior Brother, why did Master suddenly faint?"

"The old man was testing the medicine while refining it and made himself faint!" Ouyang Hexuan said helplessly. Although there was some anger in his words, he could not hide his worry.

Su Qing held her forehead, speechless. She knew her master's obsession with medicine and alchemy, but she hadn't expected him to be so reckless about his own safety. Entering the room, she saw Divine Doctor Yue lying on a couch, his face slightly pale, and the air thick with the lingering aroma of medicinal herbs. Su Qing hurried forward, gently grasping her master's wrist, and carefully checking his pulse. Her brow furrowed slightly. The pulse was chaotic yet somewhat peculiar, clearly indicating the potent and complex nature of the drug being tested.

Ouyang Hexuan watched Su Qing's focused expression from the side and said softly, "I've roughly checked it out. The medicine Master is trying seems to be an extremely rare ancient prescription designed to break through the treatment of difficult and complicated diseases. However, the medicine is too strong, and Master's body can't bear it for the time being."

Su Qing nodded, pondering a countermeasure. After a moment, she stood up and said, "Third Brother, I would like to first use silver needles to protect Master's heart meridian, and then use the gentle power of medicine to slowly resolve the conflicting medicinal properties in the body. However, this process may take some time, and I will need your assistance."

Ouyang Hexuan agreed without hesitation. Su Qing took a deep breath, unsheathed the silver needle, and inserted it into the acupuncture point with deft, precise technique. As the needle descended, beads of sweat gradually formed on her forehead, but her gaze remained resolute. Lingxuan stood by, watching Su Qing methodically perform the rescue, feeling a mixture of emotions. Although she was jealous of Su Qing's closeness to Ouyang Hexuan and harbored resentment towards him, the old Valley Master's safety was paramount.

Half an hour passed quietly in the quiet yet tense atmosphere. Su Qing sighed softly, her slender fingers gently twisting as she steadily removed the silver needles from Dr. Yue's acupuncture points like nimble silver snakes. Her movements were smooth and flowing, showcasing her exquisite medical skills. Then, she quietly withdrew a jade bottle emitting a soft halo from her personal space. Inside was spiritual spring water.

Su Qing carefully lifted Divine Doctor Yue to his feet and slowly fed him the spiritual spring water. As soon as the water entered his throat, it seemed to transform into countless lively spirits, leaping and galloping through Divine Doctor Yue's body. Wherever it touched, damaged meridians and internal organs seemed to be infused with new strength, repairing at a visible speed. A moment later, Divine Doctor Yue's eyelids fluttered slightly, as if an invisible force was calling him out of his coma, and he slowly regained consciousness.

He slowly opened his eyes, his gaze initially shrouded in confusion. Only after he took in the concerned faces of his disciples did his gaze gradually regain clarity. Divine Doctor Yue spoke weakly, his voice soft yet radiating his usual authority. "I'm sorry to have caused you, the younger generation, to worry about my old bones. I'm fine. It was just a minor setback while refining the medicine." With that, he slowly sat up, supported by Su Qing.

Divine Doctor Yue slowly scanned the crowd and said to Su Qing, "My dear disciple, thank you for saving me! Hexuan, your assistance and wise handling of the situation have made me deeply pleased." He then turned to Lingxuan, his gaze becoming more stern. "Xuan'er, I have also heard the recent rumors in the valley. As your senior sister, you should set an example and lead a positive atmosphere, rather than getting lost in jealousy and disputes and forgetting the original intention of studying medicine."

Lingxuan blushed, lowering her head like a child who had made a mistake. She stammered, "Valley Master, I have deeply reflected on my actions. From now on, I will focus solely on my medical skills and not be disturbed by any distractions." Divine Doctor Yue nodded slightly, then said solemnly to everyone, "This incident has made me realize that we still have many shortcomings in our medical exploration. Starting tomorrow, everyone must work together to carefully sort through the medical books and texts stored in the valley, and verify the prescriptions and pharmacology one by one to ensure that the medicines and prescriptions used in the future are foolproof."

All the disciples said in unison: "Yes, Valley Master!"

"Everyone, retreat! Qingbao and Hexuan stay!"

"Yes"

Wait for everyone to leave!

"Thank you, my dear disciple, for your spiritual spring water! I have been to the gates of hell again and almost died!" Doctor Yue said embarrassedly!

"Master, you really can't test the medicine on yourself next time. It's too dangerous!"

"Yes, yes, Master knows!"

As he was speaking, Old Man Meng came over and said, "You old man, you can't die early, otherwise there will be no one to quarrel with me!"

"Old man Meng, can you speak?"

Su Qing and Ouyang Hexuan watched the two old men bickering and smiled at each other helplessly.

Doctor Yue said angrily, "Old Man Meng, can't you just hope for me to get better? I just came back from the brink of death, and you're mad at me."

Old Man Meng snorted and said, "Who cares about you? I came here to see if you, old man, have really exhausted yourself. If you were gone, this Valley of Divine Doctors would lose a lot of fun." As he said that, he swaggered to the side and sat down!

"My good disciple is indeed filial. I heard everything outside just now. It was my good disciple who saved you with the spiritual spring water."

Divine Doctor Yue raised his chin proudly, "Of course, Qingbao is my most proud disciple."

"That's also my disciple!" Old man Meng said anxiously with a pale face!

Old Man Meng turned to Ouyang Hexuan again, "Hexuan is also calm and reliable. You disciples, Old Man Yue, you have found a treasure. But speaking of which, Old Man Yue, what is the meaning of testing the medicine on yourself this time? What is wrong with the prescription?"

Divine Doctor Yue's expression grew serious. "That prescription is a unique one I found in an ancient book for treating difficult and complicated illnesses. I thought I could just modify it slightly, but the interactions between the ingredients were far beyond my imagination, which led to my coma. It seems our research on ancient prescriptions is far from sufficient. We can't just look at the surface efficacy, but we need to delve deeper into the pharmacological changes within them."

Old Man Meng slowly raised his hand, his rough fingers gently stroking his thick, gray beard. A sly, casual look lingered in his eyes. "Then you, the experts in medicine, can discuss this matter here! I, a rough man, know nothing about pharmacology and medical prescriptions, so I won't get involved here. I'd better go practice my kung fu and loosen up these old bones." With that, he turned to leave, but then paused, as if remembering something.

"However, Old Man Yue, don't dive into those medicine jars and ancient books again and get stuck. Although the road of medical exploration has no end, you have to take it easy and don't really sacrifice yourself, otherwise you won't be so lucky to have the spiritual spring water to save your life next time." Old Man Meng said in a loud voice with his back to the crowd. Although there was a hint of sarcasm in his words, there was also genuine concern.

Doctor Yue laughed and scolded, "Old Meng, you're so long-winded. I know what's going on. Go practice your skills. Once I've figured out the recipe, I'll come back and have a discussion with you."
