Chapter 143: A Good Doctor in Danger
Luo Chuan clenched his fists tightly, letting the rain wash over his face and blur his vision.
The woodcutter looked far away and suddenly saw something. He pointed in that direction and said, "It seems that there is always a way out."
In a ravine, there was a human figure half buried in the mud, but still struggling to survive.
That figure was obviously Shen Mengyao.
Luo Chuan rushed over like a fly, digging the soil with his hands: "Princess, I will rescue you."
Shen Mengyao was already covered in dust and dirt from the rain, gasping for breath. The moment she saw Luo Chuan, the heavy stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.
"I thought I was about to meet the King of Hell."
"No, as long as I am here, I will never let the princess die in front of me." Luo Chuan said gritting his teeth.
He used all his strength to pull Shen Mengyao out, and then covered her with his straw raincoat.
The rain washed away the dirt on Shen Mengyao's face, revealing a pale complexion. The moment she saw the woodcutter, she tremblingly took out something wrapped in a handkerchief from her arms and carefully opened it under her straw raincoat.
"I found the herbs you wanted."
The woodcutter took it with surprise: "This is it, you know? This may be sold for a lot of money. Thank you for making me a fortune."
He looked so overjoyed that he seemed like a completely greedy villain.
The smile on Shen Mengyao's pale face froze instantly, and she gritted her teeth and trembled as she said, "What do you mean?"
"I am just a mountain man who makes a living by selling medicine." The woodcutter stuffed the herbs in the handkerchief into his arms and said, "I won't waste your time."
At that moment, Shen Mengyao felt the blood surging in her chest, and a fishy and sweet taste immediately rose in her throat.
As if bursting out of all her pain and wailing, she spat out a mouthful of blood and her face became even paler than paper.
"You, you lied to me!"
She laughed in anger: "It's my fault. I shouldn't have placed all my hopes on you!"
As her blood and energy surged, Shen Mengyao's hands dropped weakly.
Luo Chuan immediately shook her body: "Princess, Princess."
The woodcutter's face changed, he stepped forward and held her pulse, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes.
This person was so important to her that after seeking medical treatment and finding medicine in vain, she was so heartbroken that she became angry and fell into a coma.
He took out a needle bag from his waist and gave her several injections to stop the reverse flow of qi and blood.
"It's okay, just rest for a while."
Luochuan looked at his actions in astonishment. Since he was doing it so well, he put everything else out of his mind.
"You really are a miracle doctor, so can you..."
"It seems that if I don't make this trip, this girl's wish will not be fulfilled." The woodcutter sighed.
Luo Chuan seemed to be afraid that he would regret it, and immediately suggested: "Then let's set off immediately after we return. We really can't waste time. If that person can't be saved, given our princess's fierce temper, I'm afraid..."
The woodcutter smiled and said, "I can see that. Your princess may not be able to wake up in such a short time."
"It doesn't matter, as long as I can get back."
Luochuan picked up Shen Mengyao and was about to go back the way they came when he suddenly saw a thin layer of skin appear on the woodcutter's jaw, revealing more delicate skin underneath.
Could this be the legendary human skin mask? He didn't reveal his true face!
After a moment of alertness, Luo Chuan quickly calmed down. If he wanted to harm them, he would have done so long ago. Why wait until this moment? It didn't matter if he didn't want to reveal his true appearance, as long as his medical skills were useful.
After returning, without waiting for Shen Mengyao to wake up, he hired a three-horse carriage, which was smoother and faster. He traveled day and night and finally arrived in Kyoto the next night.
The Regent's Palace was brightly lit and on high alert even in the dark night.
Luo Chuan rushed over with the miracle doctor, but Bei Lan stopped them warily: "Where is the princess?"
"It's all the fault of this miracle doctor." Luo Chuan couldn't help but roll his eyes: "It was him who made the princess so angry that she passed out and hasn't woken up yet."
Bei Lan took a look at the short-sleeved, linen-pants man in front of him, with a short build and brown skin, and her heart was filled with doubts.
Is this really the miracle doctor from the Miracle Doctor Valley? Why is he so...unattractive?
"You must be thinking, how can I be a miracle doctor with such ordinary qualities? In short, if you don't believe me, I will leave immediately. It's hard for your princess to come here with so much trouble."
The miracle doctor waved his fan gently, looking calm and composed. It wasn't him who was in a hurry anyway.
Forget it, since he has already been invited, Bei Lan can’t care less and immediately invites him into the bedroom.
After a few days, Qi Sui'an's face had turned dark purple, his breathing was weak, he was breathing in less than he was breathing out, and his pulse was very weak.
The doctor felt his pulse and said, "If I hadn't been able to feel his weak pulse, I would have thought you had found a dead person to fool me."
Bei Lan was furious when he heard him insult his own prince like this, and immediately drew his sword and threatened: "What did you say?"
The genius doctor rolled his eyes at him and said, "Oh my, you want to kill me? Come on! Cut my neck. I guarantee that after you do that, there will definitely be two bodies."
Bei Lan was very angry at his shameless attitude. He was already worried and anxious, and now there came a "miracle doctor" who made a joke inappropriately. He was almost going crazy.
Luo Chuan held him back: "Alright, he has a weird temper, just bear with it for now."
Bei Lan had no choice but to control his temper and endure it.
But unexpectedly, this miracle doctor picked up Qiao first.
"You guys have made me feel bad today, so I won't treat you for now. This is the prosperous capital, and this is my first time here. I heard that this music hall is also full of talented people. Seeing is believing. I will come to treat you after I have had enough of the tour."
The miracle doctor waved his fan and walked away in a nonchalant manner. As soon as he stepped out of the threshold with his left foot, Bei Lan blocked his way.
"No one knows that my prince is seriously ill and dying. Since you already know it, I'm sorry, I can't let you go."
Seeing this, the doctor thrust his fan into his belt and sneered, "Do you think you can stop me?"
Bei Lan's face changed, and he was about to take action, but was stopped by Luo Chuan: "Bei Lan, this is what the princess went through so much trouble to get."
If it weren't for this layer, Bei Lan would have taken action long ago.
The genius doctor sneered: "I have no intention of participating in your struggles. I only know that when I am happy, I will be in a good mood. When I am in a good mood, maybe your prince can be saved."
Leaving behind this ambiguous remark, he left with a loud laugh. Before leaving, he turned back as if he had thought of something.
"If I were you, I would not use acupuncture to block the blood vessels, but would use the method of sweat steaming and cutting blood to expel the poisonous blood as soon as possible. If this method is used for a long time, your prince's health will be seriously damaged in the future."
After saying this, he turned around and left in a cool manner.
