Chapter 2187: A Smile
"There's nothing you can do about it, Master," Yu Zheng Xi said slowly.
He was present that day and watched everything. This world is really broken, causing so much pain and heartache because of wars and the conquest of power.
The two of them were only the victims of this situation.
Pushed by the world around them to make this decision because many lives were at the stake.
And there was nothing they could do.
Nothing.
"I know," Traveling Doctor Liu said slowly.
When he met with Qi Xue some time ago, she seemed to be fine. But Traveling Doctor Liu knew very well that this woman had never moved on. Even after more than two decades, she never did.
She just lives.
Because she knew that she has people who cared for her and also things that she has to do.
When talking about feelings and family, Traveling Doctor Liu couldn't help but remember his sixth disciples. From young, her life was nothing short of tragedy because of war and in the end, it also took the person she cares the most.
Traveling Doctor Liu sighed.
None of his disciples didn't have burden in their heart. Their lives experiences were filled with tragedy, but they slowly move forward and made their own marks in this world. Everyone had different troubles and Traveling Doctor Liu helped them while teaching them about
medicine.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
But he also knew very well that there was no medicine that could cure the wounds in their heart.
They had to do it by themselves.
All he could do with the others around him were to give them some support from the side but eventually, it had to come down to themselves.
If they didn't want to, nothing could be done to truly help them.
"Okay, let's not think about this sad thing." Traveling Doctor Liu shook his head and pushed the thoughts away. He didn't want to spend his entire day lamenting about the past once again.
There was nothing he could do to change it.
He himself knew that.
Because he was also there when the decision was made and it might have impacted him quite deeply.
In terms of death, Traveling Doctor Liu had already seen so much. Many of his patients couldn't be saved and Traveling Doctor Liu could only help a few patients each time because of the limited condition.
But it was enough.
Because within this limited condition, he could save someone's lives.
He had learned that not everyone could be saved medically. It was impossible for him to save everyone.
He could only do his best.
But that was the first time he lost a disciple, which impacted him greatly. After that, he refrained from taking more disciples for years until he met with Chen Yuan, then Feng Qian Lan, and so on.
It was fine if he didn't see it.
But once he had seen their situation, Traveling Doctor Liu couldn't bring himself not to reach out to them and helped them out.
This was something that he couldn't change.
And he didn't want to change either.
"It's good that I no longer walked around." Traveling Doctor Liu sighed. If he were to meet with more people who had medical talent and in difficulties, Traveling Doctor Liu knew very well that he might not be able to stop himself from recruiting them to be his disciples.
At that time, his aged body might no longer able to support him.
If they were to make trouble here and there like his tenth disciple, Traveling Doctor Liu would rather throw them out. He was too tired to clean up after their mess every single time.
Even now, he no longer took care of his tenth disciple.
Because of this, Feng Qing Lan had to run around a lot when he was being chased by the creditor. Those people would not let him off easily without him paying what his debt.
If he were to take another disciple as troublesome as Feng Qing Lan...
Traveling Doctor Liu wanted to raise a white flag higher.
It would be much better for him to not take any other disciple. If only the disciples knew how to clean up their own messes without involving him, it would have been much better.
There were only a few of these disciples who knew how to do it.
The rest were...
Really hard to say.
"Yes, Master." Yu Zheng Xi shook his head.
When he was younger, he also met with Traveling Doctor Liu coincidentally and then got taken as a disciple. Honestly, his talent as medical practitioner was actually relatively low. After all, he was not very good and there were times when it would have been better for him not to help others with his medical knowledge.
But Traveling Doctor Liu still helped him.
And for Yu Zheng Xi, it was all he needed.
That help allowed him to continue until now and allowed him to experience so many things in
this life.
He's very grateful for Traveling Doctor Liu.
It was not easy for Traveling Doctor Liu either. He had to suffer several times because of his decision. None of the people these disciples of his offend were easy to handle with many of them were capable of making even more troubles.
For some of them, Traveling Doctor Liu was already like a father. He helped them greatly and cared for them, allowing them to learn many things and also showed many other things in
life.
So that even if it was troublesome, they were all still willing to take care of Traveling Doctor Liu's feelings and never truly clash with each other.
"Grand Master! Grand Master!"
Childish voice came from the door.
Traveling Doctor Liu sighed deeply and stood up. "The little brat is looking for me again. Why
did that brat had such a troublesome disciples?"
Even while he was complaining, Traveling Doctor Liu still walked out of the house and
greeted the brat in front of him.
Behind him, Yu Zheng Xi watched with a faint smile.
