The mist on the lake was like a layer of gauze curtain, isolating the lights in the dark night, and there was a trace of coldness.
Fu Chen used his elbow to nudge Shaoyu, his gaze indicating for him to look at Tianming.
Shaoyu didn't understand and looked over. The little boy's eyes stared at the girl sitting at the bow of the boat without moving, completely dumbfounded.
" This kid…" Shaoyu smiled and turned back to Fu Chen to raise his eyebrows. The two of them had a look of understanding.
The young girl holding the lantern appeared extremely warm in the fog. Her innocent smile made Fu Chen feel very comfortable. No wonder Tian Ming was in a daze.
The boat slowly moved forward. The fog became lighter, and the lake reflected the cold moonlight. In such a quiet environment, everyone lost interest in talking.
It was either admiration, contemplation, nostalgia, or…
Floating Dawn lazily leaned against the bowstring again. Perhaps it felt uncomfortable, so it leaned against Shaoyu's body.
Shaoyu glared at Fu Chen in disdain and did not push him away in the end.
The sky gradually brightened, and Fu Chen could vaguely see the courtyard by the lake. The fence and walls were already open.
The survivors of Chu got off the boat in an orderly manner and packed their bags. Perhaps they were used to the vagrant life, but there was no fatigue on their faces. There was only hope. " Although there are three families in Chu, if Qin is destroyed, Chu must be destroyed." It seemed that the saying had found a footnote here.
There was a sign hanging at the door. Unfortunately, Floating Dawn didn't know the words on it, nor did Tianming. He asked Shaoyu beside him.
" This is the rule set by Miss Rong," Shaoyu explained,""It's written in the language of the Yan Country.”
The young girl added with a smile,"People of Qin, remedy this!" I won't save that Gai fellow! I won't save those who are injured in a fight!"
" Tianming, it looks like Uncle Gai and I won't be saved," Fu Chen said with a smile.
"Why?" Tianming and Shaoyu asked in unison.
" Uncle Gai's surname is Gai. I was injured in a fight…" Fu Chen rubbed the back of his head and continued,""Do you think we can be saved?"
" I don't think so." Tianming pondered. Shaoyu, who was beside him, smiled and slapped Tianming."We'll know when we go in and ask!"
Two Chu men carried Ge Nie, and Fan Zeng and Xiang Liang followed them into the small courtyard.
The courtyard was very clean. There was a willow tree in the corner of the courtyard. The crown of the tree was lush, and there was a pile of firewood under the tree. It was a very large house, right above the courtyard. Two small houses were on the left side of the courtyard.
A woman in plain clothes and a headscarf stood in the middle of the courtyard. Fu Chen took a look at this woman and felt that she was not a person who could be easily talked to because she had a straight face and was comparable to Fan Zeng.
They all knew each other. Shaoyu had said before that this woman called Duanmu Rong was a doctor in the Mo family. Her medical skills were superb, and the Mirror Lake Medical Hall was also a stronghold of the Mo family.
After exchanging a few simple greetings, Duanmu Rong looked at Fu Chen and Tian Ming and asked,"Who are these two?"
" This young hero is Fu Chen, and this child is Tian Ming. They are Shaoyu's friends," Xiang Liang answered.
Tianming looked at Duanmu Rong and gave her a smile, hoping to gain a good impression. Fu Chen simply cupped his hands, which could be considered a greeting.
As expected, she refused to treat Ge Nia. As for Fu Chen, this woman only said that he wouldn't die and wouldn't save him.
" It's only right and proper for doctors to save people, but you, this strange woman, set that stupid rule. You might as well say that as long as they're alive, we won't save them..." Tianming was anxious and argued with a red face.
" I'm going to tear down your stupid sign…" Tianming saw that the woman didn't react at all when he said that. He was anxious and prepared to tear down the sign.
" Alright, alright, stop fooling around. Let's go. There will always be a way." Floating Dawn pulled the angry Tianming back.
"But can Uncle hold on?" Tianming struggled for a long time but couldn't break free. He asked a little dejectedly.
"Who is making a ruckus in my Mo clan's territory?”An old man's voice came from the door. Everyone turned around and saw a short and fat old man with white hair walking in.
"Who are you?" Shaoyu looked at the old man warily.
" Master Ban," Xiang Liang cupped his hands and said rudely,""We came to ask Miss Rong to treat a friend of the Chu family. The child is young and ignorant.”
" Miss Rong has already given the order to leave. What are you waiting for?" The old man glanced at Ge Nia, who was lying on the stretcher, and said,""Do you still want me, this old man, to ask everyone to leave?”
"Let's go!" Shaoyu clenched his fists and shouted angrily.
Just as the two soldiers were about to carry Ge Nia out of the courtyard, Yuan Hong, who was beside Ge Nia, fell to the ground. Duanmu Rong saw Yuan Hong's name and shouted,"Stop!"
Everyone stopped and looked at Duanmu Rong in confusion. She said,"The injured two and the child stay. The rest of you leave!”
After saying that, he walked back to the big house without looking back.
" It seems like there's hope." Floating Dawn patted Tianming and said with a smile.
" Yes, yes." Shaoyu let out a long sigh and patted Tianming's head like a Floater.
" Don't shoot anymore, you'll go stupid." Tianming smiled and pushed Shaoyu's hand away.
"Young hero, let's go to the Mohist City of Traps first. You and Tianming can come over after Mister Gai recovers. I don't think you have anywhere else to go.”Xiang Liang cupped his hands and said to Fu Chen.
" You can call me Fu Chen." Fu Chen cupped his hands and returned the greeting,""That depends on where Tianming and Uncle Gai are going. I don't care, I can go anywhere. However, I'm still very interested in the Mohist City of Traps.”
" Hahaha..." Old Man Ban laughed out loud, clearly liking Fu Chen's words."Every member of my Mo clan is a peerless hero.”As he spoke, he took out a wooden bird from his sleeve. The wooden bird spread its wings and flew into the sky after a few movements.
" I've already sent a message to the Mo family. They will meet you at the usual place," Old Man Ban said.
" Thank you, Master Ban." Xiang Liang cupped his hands in thanks.
After bidding farewell to Shaoyu and the others, Fu Chen and Tianming carried Ge Nia into the house.
Tianming surrounded Old Man Ban and asked for the wooden bird. Old Man Ban was furious and looked at the smiling Fu Chen.
"Kid, go train. Stop fooling around. Don't you know what you're going to do?”Fu Chen knocked Tian Ming's butt with a stone.
" Got it." Tianming replied dejectedly. He went under the tree and twisted his arms and neck, preparing to do the push-ups Fu Chen taught him.
" Come in, I'll bandage you up." Duanmu Rong's voice came from inside the room, obviously speaking to Fu Chen.
Pushing the door open, he saw Ge Nia lying on the bed, half-naked, with two deep wounds.
" Miss Rong, please suture Uncle Gai first," Fu Chen said without thinking carefully.
"What is suturing?" Sure enough, Duanmu Rong and Gao Yue stopped what they were doing and looked at Fu Chen strangely.
" Uh--" Floating Dawn patted his forehead. How could this be explained?
" Don't worry. As long as I can treat the patient, I will try." Duanmu Rong felt that this young man had some medical skills.
" Suturing is a way to treat deep wounds," Floating Dawn thought carefully for a long time before using his brain to recall some medical techniques from the era when his father was born."After the wound is cleaned, use a needle to sew it up like sewing clothes. This way, it will heal very quickly. Of course, the thread is usually mutton thread.”
"Why?" Duanmu Rong and Gao Yue stared blankly. It took Duanmu Rong a long time to say something.
"I don't know the reason either, but it's definitely effective!”Fu Chen opened his mouth but couldn't recall any principles.
Duanmu Rong took out a catgut and needle from a bedside cabinet and handed them to Fu Chen. She turned around and said to Gao Yue,""Yue 'er, bring the alcohol over."
Gao Yue took a bowl of alcohol and some cotton cloth and placed them in front of Fu Chen.
" I'll stitch up my own wounds. Take a look and then help Uncle Gai stitch them up." Floating Dawn thought for a moment, then pulled open his clothes and removed the bandages. The three deep wounds were no longer bleeding, but they still looked hideous.
"Why isn't it bleeding anymore?" Duanmu Rong looked at the wound on Fu Chen's abdomen and muttered to herself with a frown.
Fu Chen almost fell down. Was there still a doctor who hoped that he wouldn't stop bleeding? "I have a strong recovery ability."”
It was his first time suturing a wound, so he was a little nervous. He used a cotton cloth dipped in alcohol to wipe the wound. It hurt a little, but the two beauties were beside him, so he endured it.
The sheep intestines were disinfected with alcohol, and the needle was burned with fire. After stringing the catgut thread, he gritted his teeth and began to suture. The needle pierced through the skin and Fu Chen grimaced in pain. There was no anesthetic in this era, so it was too painful.
The suturing process did not last long. Fu Chen was already in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat. He washed it a little and wrapped it with a cotton cloth.
" This method is indeed very useful." Duanmu Rong watched as Fu Chen finished all of this. She pondered for a long time before she slowly said. She did not lose her reputation as a divine doctor. Just by looking at Fu Chen's method, she could infer whether a method was good or bad.
" Then I'll have to trouble Miss Rong and Miss Yue." Fu Chen put on his shirt again and reminded them as he walked out,""Uncle Gai's wound is still bleeding. After suturing, sprinkle some medicine to stop the bleeding and bandage it.”
" Okay, Big Brother Fu Chen, have a good rest." Gao Yue nodded politely.
When she left the room, she saw Tianming still doing push-ups, his face covered in sweat.
" Let's rest for a while." Fu Chen leaned against the steps and said lazily.
"No…no, I want to become stronger!”The stubborn youth raised his head, anger in his eyes.
" Going too far is as bad as falling short," Fu Chen said with a smile,""Rest is also a form of exercise!"
"Really?"
"Have I ever lied to you?"
"Fooled!" Tianming pursed his lips and stopped to wipe his sweat.
"Which country are you from?" Old Man Ban had been watching Tianming play monkey and was very curious when he saw that this young man could make the mischievous Tianming obedient.
"Immortal!" Tianming winked at Old Man Ban and pointed at the sky. Seeing that Fu Chen didn't answer, he asked curiously,"Why don't you say that?"
" I don't think you believe me, so I won't say anything." Fu Chen made a face at Tianming and said to Old Man Ban with a smile,""I am the Maniac Chu, the Phoenix Song Laughing at Kong Qiu!”
"Young hero, are you from Chu?" Old Man Ban's eyes widened. He had never heard of this poem before.
"Perhaps!"
"Brother Chen, this poem is very funny. When did you become a clansman of Shaoyu?”Tianming didn't understand the meaning of the poem and simply felt that it was good.
"The people of Chu are from the same clan as Shaoyu? Nonsense, Chu is so big and there are many races.”
"Are you really from Chu?" Old Man Ban obviously didn't believe it.
"Immortal!" Fu Chen pointed at the sky and said.
" I'm so angry." Old Man Ban rolled up his sleeves and walked into the small house next door.
" Haha…" Tianming laughed loudly and jumped to Fu Chen's side. He sat down and said,""Brother Chen, tell me more about the Monkey King story.”
" The story will be told at night. Now that you've rested well, go practice your balance." Floating Dawn knocked on Tianming's head.
"Oh, okay, then we'll talk about it tonight?" Tian Ming looked at Fu Chen with a face full of hope.
"Definitely!"
After getting an affirmative answer, the young man cheered and went to Old Man Ban to ask for a rope…
Floating Dawn raised his head and looked at the blue sky. He couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Should he also meditate and cultivate? Poem Sword couldn't be defeated after just one use. If he couldn't win, he would have to run away…
