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.

"I've been feeling much better recently," Ding Yong said with a smile, "Before, I always felt alternately hot and cold, with pain all over my body, but lately, the pain subsides much quicker. Cuicui too."


He extended his elbow, "The rash has faded, too. Doctor, are we getting better soon?"


On that rough, frail arm, the rash maintained its initial appearance, not darkening any further.


"That's amazing!" Cuicui cheered, hugging her father's neck, "Once we are fully recovered and leave the Plague Hospital, I want to eat the pancakes you make for me!"


"Sure!" Ding Yong laughed as he replied, swallowing at the thought of wheat flour pancakes.


Lu Tong stood up, collected the empty bowls from which the patients had finished their medicinal soup, and left the room.


She returned to the residence nearest to the dilapidated temple.
