Forgotten Legend Of The Bloodied Flower - Chapter 1986

Chapter 1986 The Tenth Disciple (2)

There were only these two whose identity could be picked up. It was also because of their identities that they realized that Traveling Doctor Liu seemed to have no qualms when picking his disciples. He could pick anyone, including those with the position of the crown prince. The former Emperor of Qi Xi Kingdom was only on the throne for a short period of few months. Because their father died and handed the throne to his teenage son, who ended up dying in order to stop the coalition war. In that war, Qi Xi Kingdom lose everything. And the emperor's younger brother, who was even younger than him, had to step forward and become the emperor. Shangguan Xiao didn't know the details.

He was still very young when everything happened. It had been more than two decades ever since that happened.*

Now, there was another disciple from Traveling Doctor Liu appeared in front of him. If he had to say, Shangguan Xiao felt rather conflicted in his heart. He didn't know how he should treat this man. Traveling Doctor Liu's disciples never meant to really hide their identity.

It was mostly because they didn't think it was necessary to reveal this matter. Besides, what was the point of making themselves famous because of their teacher's name?

That didn't seem to benefit them either way. Shangguan Xiao watched as Feng Qing Lan finished his work and most of the soldiers had been treated. However, he saw that Feng Qing Lan didn't treat all the soldiers and seemed to be skipping some of them. "Why do you not treat all of them?" Shangguan Xiao asked. "Because I don't need to." Feng Qing Lan didn't stop his hands' movement to bandage the man in front of him. "I know you also have other doctors who are working and the basic qualities of a doctor is to determine the severity of the injuries of the people in front of them. If the injuries are quite severe, then I'll give prioritize to treat them."

"But that soldier's injuries looked very severe," Shangguan Xiao said while pointing to one of his soldiers. Feng Qing Lan glanced before returning to his work and took the herb decoction. "You see, a doctor had to know whether a person can be saved or not. It might be cruel, but this man had been stabbed in the heart and there's no medicine that can saved him. At least, not within my medical capability. So, I can't treat him."

Or it should be as expected of Traveling Doctor Liu's disciple?

"Don't look at me like that." Feng Qing Lan raised his hand. "You also have good doctors who help out in the treatment last night. They're now tired and needed rest, but in a few incense sticks of time, they will be able to go to work again."

Shangguan Xiao nodded.

He ignored Feng Qing Lan's casual and rather impolite attitude because civilians were not taught like the nobles to follow etiquette strictly. "Do you plan to follow me to Fei Yang Kingdom or do you want to be left behind?"

"If you don't mind, I want to follow along." Feng Qing Lan grinned. "There are a lot of bandits in this area and I can't really cross the border without encountering them."

He had been trying to leave but he found that there were a lot of bandits. This made him feel troubled because while he did learn martial arts as it was one of the basic requirement by Traveling Doctor Liu, his skills were not that good to face so many people. If the bandits were only one or two, then he could do it. But so many of them at once...

Ehm, that would be impossible. "In that case, you can come along. I will request for you to help treating my soldiers in return and also prepare enough payment for you."
