Chapter 110: Chapter 89: Zhou Qing Recovers

Translator: 549690339

Mourning and sighing in his heart for his disciple, Lu Yuan chose not to reveal the cruel truth.

At present, much of Zhou Qing’s motivation for living was for revenge.

If he were to tell the truth now, it would only shatter his will to live, which would be too cruel.

For that reason, he could only keep it a secret for now and let his apprentice gradually learn martial arts, allowing him to discover the difficulty on his own.

Perhaps, through the process of practicing martial arts, he would be able to let go of his resentment and peacefully overcome this obstacle.

“I just hope that Xiaoqing can truly understand when the time comes.” Lu Yuan shook his head and left his apprentice’s room.

Everyone has their own fate, and everyone has their own thoughts. Even as a master, he could not interfere too much in the lives of his disciples.

Other than offering some comfort, everything really depended on the other party’s own understanding.

The next day, at the end of the month, Sun Siwen also took a break and returned home.

Seeing his friend return, he was very happy.

That night, he couldn’t help but invite Lu Yuan for a drink under the moonlight, joking: “I thought Brother Lu had seen through the mortal dust and was ready to become a monk, ignoring us commoners. Now I know, it turns out that you can’t let go of this world’s prosperity and finally came back.”

Lu Yuan heard this and laughed bitterly, constantly raising his glass in apology: “It’s my fault, my fault, I will punish myself with three cups.”

Seeing this, Sun Siwen laughed heartily.

They drank late into the night, and a night passed quickly.

The next morning, Sun Siwen woke up from his drunken stupor, quickly cnanged Into new c10tnes, straigntenea nls appearance, ana went out.

It wasn’t until close to noon that he returned home.

During lunch, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but ask curiously.

“Isn’t it October now? Today is the day of the Imperial Examination.”

Sun Siwen took a bite of food, shook his head and sighed: “The county magistrate has gone through a lot of effort for this Imperial Examination, and he is naturally very worried. So he called me over to ask how well the county exam candidates are likely to perform.”

Lu Yuan laughed: “So what did Brother Sun say?”

Sun Siwen rolled his eyes: “What else could I say? Naturally, I told him that the students will do their best and won’t be negligent or disrespectful.” Lu Yuan laughed out loud upon hearing this.

The anxious county magistrate had resorted to seeking help from anyone available.

With the examination venue thousands of miles away, it would be futile for him to ask Sun Siwen, the education official, for help.

And what could he tell him about the performance of the candidates?

As the county magistrate, didn’t he have an idea about the level of the scholars in Changning County?

No wonder Sun Siwen couldn’t help but complain.

In the following days, the county magistrate virtually dragged Sun Siwen to his office every day to inquire about the exam candidates’ conditions.

Despite having already given his answers, the county magistrate wanted to ask them over and over again as if he had forgotten them after each inquiry.

Everyone could understand his feelings.

After all, the results of this Imperial Examination were crucial for determining whether the county magistrate could keep his current position, so naturally, he was nervous.

However, Sun Siwen, as the person involved, was quite annoyed with it all.

But who could blame him? The county magistrate was his superior’s superior, and as a mere ninth-ranked education official, Sun Siwen couldn’t afford to offend him, who was a seventh-ranked county magistrate.

So to try and please him, Sun Siwen had to muster patience and repeat the same answer every day.

When Lu Yuan, as a good friend, heard about it, he naturally laughed heartily in an unsympathetic way.

In the end, he gave his friend an encouraging look that said “I support you,” which would cheer him up instantly throughout the day.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, ten days had passed since Lu Yuan had returned to the city.

On this day, early in the morning, he came to his apprentice’s room.

At this time, in the room, along with Zhou Qing, there was also Old Doctor Li.

At this moment, the old divine doctor was carefully unraveling the medicine on Zhou Qing’s body. His expression was focused, and his movements were slow, as if he were handling a fragile piece of art.

As it turns out, in the old divine doctor’s eyes, Zhou Qing was indeed a fragile and precious piece of art.

Otherwise, where would he have earned nearly three hundred silver tales over the past three months?

Wasn’t it from the God of Wealth right in front of him?

‘What a pity that the God of Wealth has healed from his illness, and there’s no more money to be made. I won’t be able to buy the promised jewelry for the newlywed concubine at home.’

Old Doctor Li, who was still vigorous and active despite being over fifty years old, couldn’t help but feel a sense of loss and sigh.

After spending some time unravelling the medicine, Old Doctor Li looked at

Zhou Qinz and said, “You’re all better now, vour bones have recovered and are no different from an ordinary person. From today on, you are fully recovered.”

“Thank you, Divine Doctor.”

Hearing these words, Zhou Qing, who had been lying on the bed for a hundred days, sprang up, jumped straight to the ground, and had an excited look on his face.

“Watch yourself, be careful. If you continue like this without restraint, you’ll end up getting injured again in the future, even if you’re better now.”

Old Doctor Li looked at Zhou Qing, quickly grabbed him with a concerned look on his face.

However, what he was really thinking was, why couldn’t Zhou Qing have another fall? It would be even better if he broke a few more bones, so I could make more money happily again.

Alright, in order to make money, our old divine doctor had run out of scruples.

What about medical ethics?

What was that? Could it be used as money?

No matter what this unscrupulous divine doctor was secretly thinking, it was impossible for it to happen.

However, Zhou Qing did calm down.

Because his master’s eyes had shifted to him, giving him a stern look.

As his apprentice, he naturally became well-behaved instantly, hiding in the corner like a quail, daring not make any more fuss.

Lu Yuan cleared his throat, satisfied with his authority as a master, then turned to Old Doctor Li and said, “Thank you, divine doctor; if not for you, we wouldn’t know for how long Xiaoqing would have needed to recover.”

He said this before taking out a prepared red envelope from his sleeve and handed it over: “Here are ten silver notes as a token of gratitude for treating the illness; please accept it.”

Hearing about the silver, the old divine doctor’s eyes lit up instantly.

“How can I accept this?”

Old Doctor Li also coughed a few times, twisted his body, and put on a guilty face. However, his hands didn’t hesitate, quickly accepting the red envelope and putting it away in his pocket.

In his heart, he was delighted; his concubine’s jewelry could be bought now.

After receiving the red envelope and realizing there was no more money to be made, he smoothly made his excuses to leave.

Then he hurriedly left, returned home, and prepared to have a good time with his bewitching concubine.

After sending off the old divine doctor, Lu Yuan returned to the room.

He then looked at the well-behaved Zhou Qing, cleared his throat, and said with a smile, “Now that you’ve fully recovered from your injuries, Xiaoqing, it’s time for me to fulfill my promise and teach you martial arts.

Tell me, how is your understanding of the mental techniques in the secret book I showed you ten days ago?

If there’s anything you don’t understand, tell me now.”

Hearing this, Zhou Qing’s eyes lit up. He rushed to his bed, took out the first level Cloud Palm mental techniques from under his pillow, and approached Lu Yuan with the book in his hand: “Master, there’s something I don’t understand here…

The atmosphere in the room immediately turned into that of a master’s benevolence and a disciple’s filial piety, harmonious and full of joy..
