I Can See Through Everything

Chapter 60

"What method? What method?"

Guard Li was initially taken aback, then quickly asked.

The other guards also looked over.

"In a nearby village, there is a renowned doctor..."

As Mago spoke, Guard Li and the others' eyes gradually brightened.

They had heard of this Dr. Chen before. It was said that his medical skills were superb and had been praised by many noblemen, including the County Magistrate.

It was unexpected that this renowned doctor lived in a nearby village instead of the city.

With such a skilled doctor nearby, Guard Li and the others immediately decided to give up the risky plan of taking the young master back to the city.

"Brother Ma, where is Jiuli Village?" Guard Li asked anxiously.

"It's about three or four miles from here. I have a subordinate who is very familiar with the area and can take you there!" Mago said.

He had previously sent his subordinate, Xiao Tian, to investigate Lu Qing in Jiuli Village. Unexpectedly, this came in handy here.

Mago immediately called Xiao Tian over, and under his guidance, they set off for Jiuli Village.

On the way, Mago learned how young master Wei had fallen into the valley.

It turned out that he had chased a peculiar little beast to the edge of a cliff and, unwilling to give up, lost his footing and fell.

Fortunately, the valley was not very deep and had some trees to break his fall. Additionally, due to the Wei family's substantial resources and nurturing, young master Wei had reached the Qi and Blood Realm, which meant he had good physical fitness. This barely kept him from dying immediately.

Otherwise, even ten lives wouldn't have been enough.

Listening to Guard Li's story, Mago was speechless.

How foolish must one be to chase a wild animal off a cliff, especially as a Qi and Blood Realm martial artist?

They hurried to Jiuli Village and, under Xiao Tian's guidance, headed straight for Dr. Chen's Halfway House.

At the entrance, Mago saw a familiar figure.

He shouted, "Lu Qing, Lu Qing, save us, save us!"

Lu Qing, who was drying medicinal herbs in front of the courtyard, was startled.

He turned and was surprised to see Mago leading the group. He had thought he wouldn't see him until the next Grand Bazaar, yet here they were, meeting again so soon.

"Master Ma, what's going on?" Lu Qing asked.

"Lu Qing, is Dr. Chen home? We have a gravely injured patient who urgently needs his help!" Mago said urgently.

Lu Qing then noticed the stretcher behind them. Though shocked to see the well-dressed young man lying on it, he knew the situation was critical and quickly stepped aside.

"Please come in. Master is resting inside. I'll go call him right away!"

He ran into the courtyard.

Mago and the others quickly followed.

Dr. Chen was only lightly napping inside and had already been awakened by the commotion outside.

By the time Mago and his group entered the courtyard, he had stepped out of the house.

Seeing the pale-faced young master Wei on the stretcher, he immediately realized the severity of the situation.

He checked the pulse and his expression turned grave.

"Quickly, carry him inside."

He instructed Lu Qing, "A Qing, quickly prepare a blood-replenishing medicine. White Atractylodes, Angelica... Boil three bowls of water with high heat, and be quick!"

"Yes, Master!"

Lu Qing immediately ran to the medicine cabinet to gather the herbs.

Despite spending most of his free time on martial arts training, Lu Qing had also been learning medical knowledge from his master at the Halfway House.

With his special abilities, Lu Qing learned quickly. In just a few days, he had mastered the skills of gathering herbs and even learned simple methods of decoction.

After gathering the herbs, Lu Qing began to brew the medicine as instructed.

The medicine stove was specially designed to adjust the fire intensity freely.

Lu Qing used a fierce fire, and before long, the decoction was ready.

He poured the medicinal liquid into a bowl and concentrated.

Quickly, the liquid emitted a faint white glow.

[Blood-Replenishing Decoction: A soup made from various herbs, beneficial for replenishing blood, generating new blood, and protecting the heart meridian.]

[Due to the fierce boiling, the medicinal properties were somewhat damaged and could only achieve about seventy percent of its usual effectiveness.]

Seeing the information from his special ability, Lu Qing felt relieved.

As long as the medicine was not wrong, the slight damage to its properties could be tolerated. Given the urgency, seventy percent effectiveness was already quite good.

Confirming there was no problem with the medicine, Lu Qing quickly carried it to the patient.

By this time, young master Wei had been moved to the sickroom. Except for Guard Li, the others were asked to wait outside by Dr. Chen.

Seeing Lu Qing approaching, everyone made way, not daring to hinder him in the slightest.

Lu Qing entered the room and saw young master Wei, now shirtless, with many silver needles inserted into his body.

The terrifying wound on his abdomen made Lu Qing's heart skip a beat.

"Master, the medicine is ready."

Lu Qing handed over the medicine.

Dr. Chen took the bowl, sniffed it, and nodded slightly after confirming there was no problem.

"You feed him the medicine," Dr. Chen instructed.

"Yes, Master."

Lu Qing took the spoon, scooped a spoonful of the decoction, and carefully fed it to young master Wei.

However, young master Wei was already semi-conscious and couldn't swallow the medicine.

But this did not stump Dr. Chen.

He pressed several points on young master Wei's throat, and miraculously, his throat started to move, swallowing the medicine.

With their combined effort, young master Wei gradually consumed the entire bowl of decoction.

Dr. Chen continued applying acupuncture to help him absorb the medicine.

After a while, with the medicinal effects and acupuncture, young master Wei's face finally regained some color, and his chest began to rise and fall slightly.

Guard Li, who had been watching nervously, finally felt relieved seeing this.

He knew that the lives of the young master and his guards had been pulled back from the brink.

"Dr. Chen, how is my young master?"

Dr. Chen pondered for a moment and said, "The boy is quite lucky. Despite such a large wound on his abdomen, it didn't damage his internal organs or intestines, which is fortunate amidst misfortune."

"However, he has lost a lot of blood, his head was injured, and there are many cuts on his limbs. His situation remains critical."

"For now, I can only use the decoction and acupuncture to temporarily sustain his life. As for when he will wake up, it's hard to say."

Hearing that young master's life was temporarily saved, Guard Li finally relaxed a bit.

As long as he was alive, there was hope. If the young master had died, even if they escaped, their families would have no way out.

"Dr. Chen, what can we do now?" Guard Li asked.

Dr. Chen thought for a moment and said, "The biggest issue now is his severe blood loss. The abdominal wound is only an external injury and didn't harm the intestines. If we had enough aged ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum, and notoginseng, I'd be more confident in saving his life."

Hearing this, Dr. Chen felt a bit regretful. If only they still had the ginseng Lu Qing had brought a few days ago, he would have had a better chance of preserving the young master's vitality.

Given the current situation, even if the boy survives, he might be severely weakened.

"Ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum, and notoginseng, right? Dr. Chen, don't worry. I'll immediately send someone back to the city to fetch them!"

Guard Li said as he walked out.

Outside, Mago and the others were anxiously waiting. Seeing Guard Li come out, they rushed up.

"How is the young master?"

"The young master is temporarily safe."

Guard Li's words immediately relieved everyone, especially the guards, who looked as if they had survived a disaster.

"But the young master is still in a bad state. Old Zhao, Xiao Gu, you two return and report this to the mistress. Also, ask her to retrieve some ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum, and notoginseng from the medicine storeroom. Dr. Chen said these herbs would greatly increase the young master's chances of survival..."

Following Guard Li's orders, the two named guards solemnly complied and quickly left.

Mago, who overheard, had a glint in his eyes.

He then pulled Xiao Tian aside and whispered.

"Go back and fetch the battle blade hanging in my study."
