Mountain Wanderer

Lu Tong spent seven years studying medicine in the mountains, but upon returning home, he found everything had changed.

His eldest sister, a victim of foul play, met a tragic end.
His elder brother, wrongfully imprisoned, languished in dungeons.
His father journeyed to the capital to seek justice, only to meet a watery demise on the road.
His mother, driven to madness overnight, perished in flames.

Lu Tong packed his medical kit and headed to the capital of Jingzhou.

'Debts must be repaid, and lives must be avenged!
'If there's no judge, then I'll be the judge from Hell!'

In the capital, noble families faced successive tragedies,
Commander Pei Yunxing quietly investigated the matter,
And suspicions fell on a young woman from the Renxin Medical Hall.
However...
Before he could find evidence,
The girl made her move against him first.

Smiling Under Lanterns

At this point, still fixated on speaking for Lu Tong, Pei Yunmeng chuckled.


"Those slender arms and legs of yours couldn't kill ten of you, let alone bury you where no one could find you."


Pei Yunmeng hesitated briefly, then abruptly placed the paperweight down and stood up.


"The three divisions must have already received the news by now," Pei Yunmeng said, picking up the silver knife on the table. "I'll deal with it."


As he reached the doorway, he abruptly stopped and turned around, "Don't go looking for Lu Tong."


Pei Yunmeng smiled faintly, a trace of cold frost seeming to taint his dark pupils.


"That woman is a madman, stay away from her. Otherwise, if something happens, I can't save you."


The sun crept slowly up from the foot of Mount Wangchun, crossing over the river beneath Luoyue Bridge, and cast its golden light over the entire Shengjing City.
