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

Du Changqing took Ah Cheng home, saying that a few days ago, his house sprung a leak and the craftsman hired to fix the roof had arrived today, planning to return to the medical hall tomorrow.


Miao Liangfang was also absent; half an hour before, a three-year-old child at the temple's entrance had suddenly suffered from abdominal pain, and he hurriedly left with his medical kit to make a house call, with no telling when he would return.


The late summer afternoon sun was not as scorching as before, but the heat was still stiflingly unbearable. There wasn't a soul on West Street, and the stray cats lying beneath the awnings were too listless to move. Occasionally, a breeze would pass through, bringing a hint of coolness.


Yin Zheng looked outside the door, "It's terribly hot, miss, I'll go up front and buy two cups of Sweet Syrup to drink."
