According to legend, Lu Chu was a retainer of the Luzi family before being received and promoted by King Qin, so no one would suspect any ambiguity between the two. The only thing that could suggest such ambiguity was the rumor that someone seemed to have a fondness for men.
This time, Lu Chu stayed by Luzi's bedside without leaving, and everyone naturally found it unremarkable. After all, they had a close relationship, and it could very well be their last moment together. With the remaining time, it was good to leave a memory.
Medical staff did not enter the room but arranged for twenty-four-hour shifts to guard the door. When the on-duty personnel heard sorrowful sounds coming from inside, they were immediately stunned. After a brief moment of recovery, they rushed into the room without knocking, intending to provide assistance.
When the old Chinese doctor hurried over after receiving the news, everyone was waiting silently by the bedside without making any moves. It wasn't that they didn't want to help; it was simply unnecessary. To everyone's astonishment, the previously comatose Luzi had actually awakened—this was nothing short of a miracle!
The medical staff present were undoubtedly the best doctors in the country. Even those who were merely assisting were not comparable to ordinary physicians. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, and experts could gauge a patient's condition just by looking. This awakening was not merely what old folks referred to as a fleeting moment of clarity; it was a genuine revival! As the patient's consciousness returned, his complexion began to regain its color. After adjusting his rapid breathing, his gaze also started to regain its vitality.
Wang Jian, Li Xin, and Sun Thirteen rushed over upon hearing the news and were naturally thrilled to see Luzi awake. This proved that all their efforts had not been in vain! The three who entered the room were not alone; they surrounded an elderly man with white hair. This elder was said to be a descendant of the Shennong family, a legendary figure of divine status.
After the elder's treatment, Luzi, who had previously shown no hope of awakening, finally recovered. With further confidence and care in his recovery, it was believed he would regain his health in no time!
Without any discussion, the three men bowed down in gratitude to the divine physician, sincerely thanking this elder for his assistance.
If it weren't for Old Immortal agreeing to come out of retirement, they would have faced punishment from King Qin. The essence of medicine is its moral obligation; saving lives does not necessarily require injections or medication to be considered as such. Everyone present understood this well and knelt down in gratitude to this great benefactor.
Old Immortal was not an arrogant person; he quickly helped Lu Master up and gestured for everyone to rise. "The application of medical skills is itself a means of helping others. This is also the duty of those in this field; there is no need for thanks. If one seeks fame and fortune alone, they lose sight of their responsibilities as healers. So please do not act this way!"
The so-called humility refers to those who are capable being modest. The Old Immortal before them was undoubtedly capable and possessed great skill. Thus, he qualified for such humility.
At that time, there was no specific term for medical skills; traditional Chinese medicine was collectively referred to as Fang Ji (methodology). However, healing and saving lives truly existed, and the efficacy of medicines was widely known. Especially those military surgeons were highly regarded. At this moment, having saved what seemed like an insurmountable injury, everyone in the room naturally held deep admiration for him.
After being personally re-examined and confirmed by the divine doctor, everyone finally felt relieved. The brothers, having reunited after a long time apart, naturally had endless conversations. After expressing their gratitude once again, they indicated a desire to stay and chat for a while.
The Old Immortal advised Brother to pay attention to controlling time, and then the Surgeons escorted him out like stars surrounding the moon, intending to explore professional knowledge. With one more healer, there would be less suffering in the world. The elder answered all questions without reservation, discussing some details that Surgeons encountered during procedures. Especially regarding overly complicated medical techniques, there was no need to be unnecessarily cryptic. Simplifying was the most important issue for a healer to focus on.
Many matters are like a layer of window paper; having a wise person to guide you can lead to a qualitative leap. Setting aside the Surgeons' diligent learning and not mentioning it further, it was better to return to the main topic.
After a few people gathered together to exchange pleasantries, Chuchu realized she had arrived later than everyone else. Wang Jian and Li Xin had considered more, so they had not actively shown themselves in the past few days. If it weren't for this alert from the duty personnel, she believed they would still be hiding in some corner talking.
After chattering for a while, noticing Luzi's eyelids drooping heavily, she hurriedly stood up to take her leave. She accompanied Brother to send Lu Master out of the city while three younger brothers stood at the city gate watching. Once Chuchu reunited with the transport convoy waiting on the main road, she finally felt relieved and turned back toward the city.
If it were about treating Luzi's injuries, the Surgeons might have been at a loss. However, when it came to nurturing a patient's body, they were quite experienced. As autumn gave way to winter, Luzi was already able to walk on his own.
When the first snow covered City Wall, Luzi ascended the city tower accompanied by Wang Jian and Li Xin. If he needed assistance at first, now he could climb the tower by himself.
Luzi's legs were not injured; why was he still facing such difficulty? This was actually due to long periods of bed rest causing muscle atrophy in his legs from lack of exercise; recovery would take time. Now, let alone running across rooftops, he couldn't even run for too long.
Wang Jian watched as Luzi stared silently at the road outside the city wall and couldn't help but sigh deeply within himself. There was actually nothing on that road; it was surrounded by white snow with no scenery at all. However, for Luzi at that moment, that place held his concern. Although he couldn't see it, he could feel it vividly.
If it weren't for Brother's body just recovering, Wang Jian would have reminded him about this matter long ago. Seeing Luzi standing there in the cold wind with a dazed expression made him grunt heavily without saying anything.
Luzi took a deep breath to awaken his senses against the biting cold wind. Smiling and shaking his head, he finally said, "There is indeed something I care about over there, but it's all in the past now."
Upon hearing this, Wang Jian looked up at the endless white sky and asked, "Has it really all passed?"
If we talk about Luzi's thoughts when he first climbed the city tower, he actually hoped to suddenly see that familiar figure appear on the main road. However, as time passed, what could not be let go was eventually released. Since he couldn't forget, he simply buried it deep in his heart. Life is just like this; in the blink of an eye, one becomes old and gray. One day, when he grows old and can no longer carry the burdens, he will also learn to let go and see things clearly.
"Thank you for your companionship along this journey; you are my greatest treasure," Luzi said, raising his hand as if to throw away all his burdens with a swift motion. "Time is short! We have our responsibilities! That belief has always burned fiercely in my heart and has never been extinguished. General Wang Jian! We no longer have much time to waste; let us achieve great deeds and leave our names in history from now on!"
