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

The elder slightly squinted his eyes and stretched out his hand to twirl the Buddha beads around his wrist, one bead after another.


The next moment, Lu Tong's voice rang out.


"Besides, there wasn't even a stone bridge over the moat back then."


The twirling of the Buddha beads paused.


"Exactly because there was no bridge, my elders specifically warned me never to play by the riverbank. Later, due to too many children falling into the water, the Imperial Court ordered a reconstruction. But that was five or six years ago."


Lu Tong looked at the man before him, his gaze filled with confusion, "Old sir, could you have remembered the time incorrectly?"


The other party didn't speak, the smile at the corner of his mouth slightly fading as he continued to scrutinize her.


After a moment, he smiled again, his eyes looking at Lu Tong with even more warmth, "So, Doctor Lu, after living in Su Nan for many years, why did you suddenly come to Shengjing?"
