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

She suddenly stood up, shouldered her medical kit, and headed for the door.


Lin Danqing grabbed hold of her, "Where are you going?"


"To the Plague Hospital." Lu Tong paused, then said, "I'm going to see Ding Yong."


Having rested these past two days, she had stayed in her lodging without going out. Cuicui, happy to see her, eagerly sought her out for conversation.


"Chief Physician Chang mentioned earlier that Sister Lu Tong, you were ill and couldn't come. Have you fully recovered now?"


"That's good." Cuicui smiled, "I was worried for quite a while."


Lu Tong raised her eyes, scanning the Plague Hospital, and finally caught sight of Ding Yong. Ding Yong had just lifted a bowl and drunk a brown medicinal soup, wiped his mouth, and the bowl used for the medicine was not the usual white porcelain ones. Beside him sat Ji Xun, head lowered, taking notes on a piece of paper.
