Peerless Physician: The Path of a Foolish Eldest Daughter's Rise to Power

After disinfecting the wound, Gu Xinyue carefully cut open the area around the room. When she saw the arrowhead, she became even more cautious. She used silver needles to stop the bleeding and pulled out the arrowhead, but blood still spurted out, and the smell of blood was even stronger than before.

She quickly used forceps to stop the bleeding, then performed a lengthy suturing process, with sweat pouring down her face, obstructing her vision.

"Wipe your sweat." After Gu Xinyue finished speaking, Doctor Luo noticed that Gu Xinyue's forehead and ears were covered in sweat, and he hesitated about how to wipe it.

A cool, clear voice came from behind, "I'll wipe it."

Chu Yize walked up to Gu Xinyue and gently wiped her sweat with a white handkerchief.

Looking at the focused and serious Gu Xinyue, her medical skills surpassed those of Doctor Luo, and even those of Doctor Huo.

He didn't know she had a universal detector inside her body.

Half an hour later, after Gu Xinyue finished stitching, Dr. Luo quickly said, "Miracle doctor, you rest for a while, I'll take over now."

The general didn't introduce her, leaving him unsure how to address her. Although she looked like a handsome scholar and had a woman's voice, he was a doctor, and she could tell at a glance that she was a young woman.

"Dr. Luo, my surname is Gu. I wouldn't call myself a miracle doctor in front of you, but I do specialize in external injuries," Gu Xinyue said as she stood up.

Her legs were stiff, her hands were sore and tired, and she was exhausted. Her vision went black, and she swayed. Chu Yize quickly picked her up.

Doctor Luo quickly stepped forward to take the patient's pulse, and after a moment he said with a smile, "General, it's nothing. You take Doctor Gu to rest, I'll handle the rest." He really liked Doctor Gu, who was skilled in medicine and humble in character.

Chu Yize led Gu Xinyue to another small cave, which could only accommodate four or five people. It was relatively dry inside, with only some dry grass. Chu Yize sat down, gently rubbed her hands, massaged her calves, opened her bundle, and covered her with her old clothes.

At the cave entrance, Ling Qi stood guard. Chu Yize said, "You keep watch and don't let anyone disturb you."

An hour later, Gu Xinyue woke up and saw the empty cave and the old clothes on her body. She smiled gently, folded the clothes and put them in her bundle.

Her stomach was growling, she was so hungry! Why was she always hungry after transmigrating? She wanted to go home, back to the capital, back to her parents. Surely her parents wouldn't let a legitimate daughter of a marquis's family go hungry.

Ling Qi came in carrying a food box with a big smile on her face and said, "Little Divine Doctor Gu, please have your meal first." She opened the food box and found vegetable porridge and roasted meat.

Ling Qi is usually very serious and doesn't smile much. What's wrong with him today? Not only is he smiling, but he's also being so attentive. Gu Xinyue looked at Ling Qi suspiciously.

Seeing Gu Xinyue looking him over, Ling Qi scratched his earplugs sheepishly. "Little Divine Doctor Gu, thank you for saving my master and brothers. If there's anything I can do for you in the future, I'll do my utmost."

"Hehe," Gu Xinyue laughed, "Okay." It turned out that the change in her medical skills was due to his acknowledgment of her abilities.

"Then you can have your meal, I'm going out." With that, she happily ran out.

Gu Xinyue smelled the fragrant roasted meat, picked up the porridge and started drinking. The steaming hot porridge warmed her exhausted stomach.

She used chopsticks she had whittled from a twig to pick up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth. It was tender and delicious, even better than the last time she had it.

Gu Xinyue, who had just finished her meal and was about to clear the table, was greeted by Ling Qi, who quickly finished and took the dishes away. She could only marvel at how efficient the young man was.

Chu Yize walked in carrying a small, uncolored wooden box, sat down next to Gu Xinyue, and said softly, "Xinyue, you're feeling much better. This is for you." He then opened the wooden box.

Gu Xinyue looked at the appropriately sized medicine box, which had a nine-compartment layout inside. One row of three compartments was fixed, while the others were movable and could be adjusted to her needs.

She couldn't help but stroke it with her hand, then smiled and said to Chu Yize, "Thank you, I like it very much."

She sorted the contents of her bundle, making it instantly smaller. She slung the bundle over her shoulder, placed the suitcase beside her, and told Chu Yize that she was going home. She had been away for several days and didn't even know what her home was like.

Chu Yize had already made arrangements to leave the forest and reach Shihu Town. Gu Xinyue planned to go with them, as she was unable to leave the forest herself and could only follow them.

They left the small cave to check on the two wounded. Along the way, the guards greeted Gu Xinyue warmly, calling her "Little Divine Doctor Gu".

Gu Xinyue responded with a smile to their overly enthusiastic manner. She hadn't seen anyone so enthusiastic towards her when she and Chu Yize came back before. She glanced at Chu Yize, who just smiled and didn't say anything.

When they saw the two wounded, Doctor Luo and Ling San were glaring at each other. Qin Ping had already sat up and was grinning foolishly at Doctor Luo and Ling San. Lu Yu was still unconscious.

Upon seeing Gu Xinyue enter, the two who had been arguing immediately smiled and called out to her, "Little Divine Doctor Gu."

Then Ling San stepped forward and said, "Dr. Gu, these sutures were made according to your method. You can take these and use them."

He glanced at Doctor Luo and said in a low voice, "Doctor Luo has already ruined a lot of the thread, don't give it to him." Gu Xinyue took the thread, put it in the medicine box, and took out the acupuncture kit.

Looking up, Dr. Luo saw Ling San looking at Doctor Luo with a smug expression, which made him very unhappy.

"Ling San, here's your silver needle pouch back," Gu Xinyue had just finished speaking when Ling San said anxiously, "It's new, only you've used it, you can keep it."

Dr. Luo looked at Gu Xinyue, stroked his beard, and hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped. Gu Xinyue said, "I'm going home soon. Just say what you want to say."

Seeing that Chu Yize did not show any displeasure, Doctor Luo smiled and asked, "This old man would like to ask the young master doctor about suturing techniques. I just tried to suture two wounded soldiers and would like to ask you for advice on the key points of suturing." After saying this, he was worried that Gu Xinyue would not teach him, but it didn't matter if she didn't teach him; he also understood the principle of not passing on his skills to outsiders.

Seeing Dr. Luo's conflicted expression, Gu Xinyue smiled and said, "Wait a moment, let me go see the stitches you made, and then find another one that needs stitches. I'll teach you how to do it, so that you can help more soldiers suffer less and save lives on the battlefield in the future."

After he finished speaking, the cave fell silent. A few moments later, Ling San and Doctor Luo clasped their hands in a respectful bow and said, "Thank you, Little Divine Doctor Gu. We thank you on behalf of the soldiers on the battlefield." As they finished speaking, their eyes reddened.

After exchanging a knowing glance, the two who had just been arguing left, while Doctor Luo stayed behind.

"Thank you so much, Dr. Gu, for saving my life." Qin Ping looked at Gu Xinyue with admiration.

"Dr. Luo handled the initial situation well, and with your strong will, you were able to wait for me to treat you," Gu Xinyue said, neither arrogant nor humble.

Then, after examining Qin Ping and Lu Yu's pulses, they both recovered quite well. Doctor Luo is very skilled in treating external injuries.

Looking at Chu Yize and Gu Xinyue, Qin Ping was filled with mixed emotions. He thought it would be difficult for his master to find the antidote, and he was very saddened by his master's disappearance.

Later, he was seriously injured and thought he wouldn't survive. He was unwilling to die like that, and he dared not close his eyes. At this time, Doctor Gu came to their side like a god. He spoke gently, saved them, gave them hope, and gave them warmth. This doctor also lived in his heart.

A moment later, Ling San led the three of them in. Gu Xinyue saw the wound that Doctor Luo had stitched up; it was alright, considering she had practiced for a long time. But Doctor Luo learned it after just one look; his comprehension was too high.

The wounded man brought by Ling San had a small wound on his arm. Gu Xinyue began to explain the preliminary work, suturing process, and follow-up care. Gu Xinyue spoke attentively, and Dr. Luo listened carefully.

Gu Xinyue's skillful operation stunned the three people Ling San brought in. The two wounded soldiers were very frustrated. Doctor Luo had stitched them up for a long time and they had suffered a lot. The stitches were far from as good as they looked now.

After Gu Xinyue finished her acupuncture, Dr. Luo happily rushed to handle the aftercare.

The wounded soldier gratefully thanked Dr. Gu. His wound wasn't too big, and after witnessing his two comrades' stitching process, he wanted his wound to heal slowly. He didn't expect that Dr. Gu was different from Dr. Luo; not only was he fast, but the scar wasn't gruesome either, just a line.

This trip to the forest has been unpleasant; I haven't been eating or sleeping well, and there have been frequent battles that have kept me on the brink of life and death.

Nevertheless, Dr. Luo felt incredibly lucky to have met the young and skilled doctor Gu.

The young doctor Gu generously shared his suturing skills; a person with such a broad mind is sure to make a name for himself in the future.

Chu Yize saw that Gu Xinyue had taught her enough, so he told her to leave.

Today, through advance planning, they not only located their hideout but also used sedatives to capture more than a dozen people alive. His men are currently in Shenyang, and they will not encounter any danger on their way back.

An hour later, they emerged from the forest. Gu Xinyue's joy was ruined by the path before her; she didn't know which way to go.

Suddenly, two tall, thin young men rushed over and bowed respectfully to Gu Xinyue, saying, "Miss, we are incompetent and only found you today."

She looked at the guards, whose clothes were faded from washing and whose faces were pale and thin, and thought they looked so shabby. Then she looked at Ling Qi's dignified appearance and sighed helplessly, "Gu Xinyue doesn't even protect the people around her properly. How can you expect them to protect you?"
