The Great Physician

Falling in Love with You (630bookla Chapter of The Great Physician)

Suddenly, a gust of wind swept through the forest, and the morning dew on the leaves fell like rain.

The person's voice suddenly became anxious: "My lord, you mustn't get wet in the rain."

The man with the deep, resonant voice said, "Find a place to hide."

Then came the sound of the two men gathering their breath.

"There are steep cliffs blocking the way."

The sound was already very close.

Li Ruozhu looked down and saw the two people directly below her.

Li Ruozhuo: "..."

What if two people find out? She tried her best to hold her breath and dared not move.

Then a voice came from below: "My lord, the mountain is so big, and we've sent all our people back to search for it."

The lord said, "If we can't find a place to stay, let's find a simple place to rest."

“There’s no one in the mountains.” Li Ruozhuo looked down and saw a man dressed in black, striking a lotus seedpod with his hands and looking around. “My lord, why don’t you rest first? There are houses nearby.”

Li Ruozhuo couldn't see the person's face, but judging from his agile and nimble figure, he must be a young man.

The lord beside him wore a dark green robe and blended into the mountains; if one were not careful, one would not recognize him. Li Ruozhuo could not see his face.

The green figure sat cross-legged on the ground, gently exhaling: "Go."

"Please wait a moment, my lord."

The man in black vanished like a gust of wind.

Seeing his movements, Li Ruozhuo couldn't help but feel more excited. The man's steps were light and his movements were also those of a sixth-dan martial artist or even higher.

Although there is only a difference of one rank between the fifth and sixth ranks, they are worlds apart. Xin Ge City is the capital of the Qi Kingdom. Their Li family is the family of the capital's great physicians. The identities of all martial artists are recorded in their families, unless they are self-taught and do not want to serve as officials in the court.

Therefore, she knew exactly how many people in the world had reached the martial arts level. There were only about a hundred people at the fifth level, twenty at the sixth level, and only four at the seventh level. She only knew of the eighth and ninth levels among the alien races.

The most knowledgeable person I know is the Duke Chengxiao, a vassal state of the Han River, whose surname is Ji and given name is Wusheng.

Five years ago, Li Ruozhuo saw a young man whose martial arts skills had already reached their peak. At that time, the Japanese invaded the border. Chengxiao Gong encountered trouble in his cultivation and came to his home to ask his father for advice because it would be too dangerous for him to have health problems on the battlefield while resisting the Japanese.

He is already the number one expert in the world at the tenth level of True Essence, while his father's medical level is only the eighth level. Although his father is the number one physician, his cultivation level is still a bit low compared to a tenth-level martial artist.

Therefore, his father could not solve his problem either.

Li Ruozhuo did have some tricks up his sleeve at the time, because he was too young, only twenty-two years old, so his true essence was not enough to support his cultivation. Therefore, every half month, his true essence would spontaneously rest and recuperate.

It is governed by physiology.

However, herbal remedies can also alleviate his symptoms. After a year of medication, his vital energy will be able to be controlled freely.

Unfortunately, the Li family had an ancestral rule that medical skills should be passed down to sons, not daughters. Li Ruozhuo secretly learned medical skills, which her father did not know, and she dared not let her father know.

Therefore, she did not help with the problem of Duke Chengxiao.

Unfortunately, during the battle against the Japanese, Chengxiao Gong suddenly lost control of his true essence and was injured by a Japanese mythical beast. His true essence shattered, and he fell from his divine position.

Later, Li Ruozhuo saw him at home several times. He still came to his father for treatment. At that time, Chengxiao Gong had no martial arts skills and was no different from ordinary people.

It's a pity.

How could Li Ruozhuo not be afraid when a sixth-level martial artist suddenly appeared in the forest, looking for the master of the Resurrection Thunder?

And he called another person "lord".

Ming is a retainer. What kind of family can command a sixth-level martial artist? Only the rich and noble, not even kings, marquises, generals, or ministers.

The Li family was destroyed by order of the King of Qi; all the kings, nobles, generals, and ministers were relatives of the King of Qi.

Therefore, it is highly likely that the two were sent by the King of Qi to exterminate them.

Li Ruozhuo could already smell the scent of death.

She wasn't afraid of death, but she felt she had let her elder brother down. His medical skills were only at the seventh level, barely enough to trigger the Soul-Returning Thunder. Even if he succeeded, his true essence would be completely destroyed. Therefore, her rebirth was very likely brought back by her elder brother's life.

Before they could even leave the village, find their elder brother, or understand why the King of Qi and their father had died in rebellion, they were still in the dark.

It's truly frustrating and I'm unwilling to give up.

Something landed on his face. The person meditating and recovering felt something cool near his mouth and licked it with his tongue: "It's a little salty."

"Who goes there?" He frowned, looked up, and his sharp gaze shot towards the top of the cliff.

Li Ruozhuo was startled by the shout. She was barely able to use her true energy and soon succumbed to the fright. She cried out in pain and her body began to fall.

"Oh my god..." Before the person below could even express his surprise and amazement, he felt a dark shadow fall from the sky and instinctively reached out to catch it.

Li Ruozhu heard a muffled groan coming from below and looked up to find herself lying in a broad chest.

(Chest) Firm and warm with a faint scent of soapberry.

She blushed and glared at the person beneath her. He looked pained, but it didn't diminish his exquisite and handsome features. Cold sweat trickled from the tip of his straight nose, like a rose with dew on it.

That's absolutely amazing.

Li Ruozhuo reached out to help him wipe it: "Uncle."

The (flesh) cushion underneath furrowed his brows and opened his eyes, revealing handsome features with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes.

The person turned out to be Ji Wusheng, the Duke Chengxiao, whom Li Ruozhuo had met before and was just thinking about.

Recognizing him as an old acquaintance, Li Ruozhu smiled broadly and called him "Uncle."

Before Chengxiao Gong could react, a little girl was standing with her hands on her chest, showing off her pearly white teeth as she smiled at him.

She has a pair of extremely lively peach blossom eyes, dark and sparkling like stars in the night sky, or like obsidian that has been washed by water.

Innocent and adorable.

Duke Chengxiao forced a smile: "Whose child are you that you're trying to crush me?"

Li Ruozhuo remained unmoved, still staring at him and calling him uncle.

Chengxiao Gong thought the child seemed to have a problem with his brain, but he had a cute little girl who had never called him "uncle" before.

He tried to sit up, supporting himself with his hands, but couldn't move at all. He said, "Baby, can you move? Help Uncle up."

baby?!

Li Ruozhu felt embarrassed. She had just sat up when she felt a gust of wind and then someone forcefully lifted her by the back of her neck, leaving her suspended in mid-air.

"Ouch!" She was then thrown aside.

"My lord, are you alright?" It was the martial arts instructor who returned.

The way to
