Chapter 572: Chapter 578
“What exactly do you an by ‘unless’? There must still be a way to save Han Yu,” Liu Xiu said in a nacing tone, his superior’s aura emanating strongly. If the doctor could not provide a satisfactory answer, he would not hesitate to resort to asures.
The doctor, quick to read the room, saw Liu Xiu’s deanor and knew he could not keep anything hidden. He did not intend to hide anything in the first place, he just thought it quite improbable and hurriedly said, “General Han’s injuries are so severe, and my dical skills are limited, I am powerless to help. In such a situation, in my experience, unless Divine Doctor Mu can be found within two days, perhaps there might be a chance to save General Han, but it’s not certain. Divine Doctor Mu is The Best Doctor in the World, unparalleled in dical skills, it is said that as long as a patient still breathes, they can be saved. However, Divine Doctor Mu’s whereabouts are erratic and unknown, it’s almost impossible to find him in such short ti, and reportedly, Divine Doctor Mu has quite an eccentric temperant. Even if we find him, he might not be willing to treat General Han. That’s why I didn’t ntion it before; the possibility is just too slim.”
Hearing about Divine Doctor Mu, Liu Xiu’s eyes lit up. Han Yu’s daughter-in-law had been saved by Divine Doctor Mu, and that was not long ago. Perhaps Divine Doctor Mu was still nearby. Certainly, Han Yu must know how to find Divine Doctor Mu. Yet, looking at Han Yu, who had already fallen into a coma, even if Han Yu knew how to find Divine Doctor Mu, he would not be able to wake up and tell him. Over the past few days, it was only just now that Han Yu had briefly regained consciousness, not finishing his words before passing out again.”
Thinking of Han Yu’s personal bodyguard, who Han Yu greatly trusted, perhaps Zhai Li also knew. With this thought, Liu Xiu imdiately sought out Zhai Li.
After Han Yu was injured and fell into a coma, Zhai Li took over the affairs Han Yu was responsible for. He had perford well, without any mishap, proving to be a valuable asset.
Zhai Li, not surprised by Liu Xiu’s approach, respectfully said, “My Lord seeks , do you have any orders?”
“Zhai Li, are you aware of Divine Doctor Mu’s matters? Divine Doctor Mu’s dical skills are excellent; my younger sister-in-law was saved by him. Xiu Qi’s condition is not optimistic and he might not last much longer. Should we find Divine Doctor Mu, perhaps there’s still hope. Since you have always been by Xiu Qi’s side, you must know the thod to find Divine Doctor Mu, right?” Liu Xiu urgently spoke, his concern making him overlook the strangeness in his speech.
Zhai Li, hearing Liu Xiu ntion Divine Doctor Mu, was montarily taken aback. It seems the Master’s plan was more effective than expected. Liu Xiu thinking of asking Divine Doctor Mu to treat the Master indicated his stance. Although many thoughts crossed Zhai Li’s mind, none showed on his face.
In truth, Han Yu’s condition was not as dire as the doctor described. There was a special technique to alter the pulse so that the true condition could not be diagnosed, creating the illusion of being at death’s door. Otherwise, Zhai Li would not be as calm as he was.
“I indeed know the thod to contact Divine Doctor Mu. When the Master’s injuries beca severe, I already used the thod to reach out to Divine Doctor Mu, hoping to have him co and treat the Master. But until now, there has been no reply from Divine Doctor Mu. I don’t know if my ssage was received. Divine Doctor Mu’s movents are unpredictable and beyond that, I have no other way to find him,” Zhai Li replied.
Liu Xiu, hearing Zhai Li’s response, suddenly realized. As Han Yu’s confidant, Zhai Li could not be indifferent to Han Yu’s injuries. Knowing that Divine Doctor Mu existed, he would naturally seek him out, but it appears that Divine Doctor Mu was difficult to find.
“There really is no other way? If Divine Doctor Mu cannot be found promptly, Xiu Qi might not be able to hold on much longer. Shall I dispatch so n to search? Perhaps Divine Doctor Mu has not gone far,” Liu Xiu asked, his brow furrowed.
“Divine Doctor Mu is not an ordinary person. Unless he wishes to be found, even standing right in front of you, he might not be recognized. Sending more people to search will be futile. Other than waiting for news, there truly is no other way, or I would have searched for him myself imdiately,” Zhai Li said.
“Then I have no choice but to wait, hoping that Xiu Qi can hang on until Divine Doctor Mu arrives,” Liu Xiu sighed in resignation; at this point, he had done all he could and could only leave the rest to fate.
Zhai Li, hearing Liu Xiu’s words, nodded in agreent but his eyes flashed with a hint of sothing else.
But was the situation truly as Zhai Li stated? Of course not! The relationship between Divine Doctor Mu and the Zhai Family aside, after this interaction, Divine Doctor Mu had a favorable impression of the couple, Han Yu and Su Wenyue. Considering that Su Wenyue had not fully recovered and fearing a relapse, Divine Doctor Mu temporarily stayed nearby and had not left.
Zhai Li’s response to Liu Xiu was simply an excuse for himself; else, he could not explain his actions and Liu Xiu would surely beco suspicious, starting to doubt Han Yu’s motives.
In Liu Xiu’s view, Han Yu was indeed lucky. Within two days, Zhai Li received a reply from the Divine Doctor who would soon arrive to treat Han Yu.
anwhile, Han Yu faced the most critical mont, close to his last breath. With the arrival of the Divine Doctor, his condition was stabilized, and he awoke the second day. However, due to the gravity of his injuries, he needed to rest in bed and could not exert himself.
“That’s wonderful, Xiu Qi, you’ve finally woken up. Divine Doctor Mu truly lives up to his reputation as The Best Doctor in the World within the Daming Dynasty. You were so close to…, but you were saved. Haha, we brothers can fight side by side again. Don’t forget the promise you made before, to help achieve a great cause!” Liu Xiu exclaid cheerfully, feeling relieved after several gloomy days. If it hadn’t been for Han Yu’s injuries, he would have wanted to take Han Yu out for a proper drink.
It wasn’t just the good news of Han Yu waking up. During these days, many forr subordinates had escaped from Yiyang and made contact with Liu Xiu. Despite the defeat at Yiyang City, the losses were smaller than anticipated. Even now, Liu Xiu had gathered quite a number of personnel, including Yin Shi and other generals who had previously followed him. They not only had escaped from Yiyang City, but remained loyal and had not sought other paths, still willing to follow him.
“I, Han Yu, may not have much to boast of except for one thing: I keep my word. Having made a promise, I will fulfill it. I will dedicate myself fully to assist My Lord in achieving a great cause, without any second thoughts!”
“Excellent! That’s settled then. With talents like you, Xiu Qi, even in the face of adversity, I have no concerns about the great cause! However, the most pressing issue right now is not these matters. Xiu Qi, you were seriously injured while saving this ti, with a stab wound straight to the heart ridian, a most critical part of the body. Although you’re no longer in mortal danger thanks to Divine Doctor Mu’s treatnt, you still need to rest well. Do not rush into dealing with external affairs; once recovered, you can effectively take care of things for .”
