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

Lu Tong was stunned for a moment, thinking she had heard wrong.


"Didn't catch that?" he glanced at her, "I said, I'll accompany you."


This year, heavy snows had blanketed Su Nan City, closing the mountain passes, and indeed, the journey to Luomei Peak was dangerous. Li Wenhu's concerns were not unfounded. Had the situation not been urgent, she would not have set out at this time.


Pei Yunmeng often traveled outside and would surely be even more aware of the situation. She had expected him to speak out against her going, but she never imagined he would offer to go with her.


"Are you going to stand there forever?"


Pei Yunmeng tilted his head, reminding her, "In a little while, once the other medical officers wake up, you won't be able to leave."


If they reported her to Chang Jin, he would certainly stop her.
