Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower



At first, Chu Yue was overwhelmed. Thankfully, Hui Ling also knew first aid and could help them with carrying some medicines over.

It was soon chaotic.

But in that mess, Nan Hua worked calmly and simply focused on the patient on her hand. She had been trained in extreme condition, so even though there were many tasks that she had to do at once, she could do it without being overwhelmed.

She was steady and firm.

When the other doctors were already panting and lying on the ground, Nan Hua was still moving around and treated the rest of the soldiers who came over. Some doctors were stunned when they saw her and even felt awe.

"Doctors from the Capital City is indeed very different. When we have already exhausted our energy, she was still very energetic." One of the apprentice doctor there felt awe from the bottom of his heart.

"She should also have field experience." An older doctor looked at Nan Hua and nodded in approval. "If only I'm younger, I should be more energetic than her."

"Hahaha, you're already so old and wish to compete in stamina with youngsters?"

"Tsk, if you still have so much energy, how about if you go to the next patient."

"No way, I can't even lift my hand."

These doctors were exhausted. Everyday has been a race against time. Because if they didn't treat the patient in time, the patient will die. Thus, they could only do their best to make sure that they could treat the injured in time.

If they missed the best time, they would fail to safe the other party.

Nan Hua looked at the last soldiers and her eyes narrowed at the blackened wound. It was poison. Seems like among the soldiers from Shi Long Kingdom, there were some people from Kuang Shen who meddled and poisoned their weapon.

Nan Hua carefully took the man's pulse before asking for a few medicines.

"Doctor Jun, aren't these herbs a bit too strong?" Doctor Hei was surprised when he saw the herbs that Nan Hua asked Hui Ling to bring. In his opinion, too much medicine would only worsen the man's situation, so he wanted to check on her.

He acknowledged Nan Hua's ability after seeing how easily she handled these injuries, thus his tone was a bit softer.

"He's poisoned." Nan Hua looked at Doctor Hei. "His opponent should have used poisoned weapon to hit him. But it seemed that the poison had wear off, allowing him to be sent here."

And the only way to make the poison wear of was if there were many others who were already injured under the blade.

Doctor Hei was stunned and quickly took the soldier's pulse. His face turned ugly. Now that Nan Hua specifically said that there was poison, he tried his best to carefully detect it and also sensed it.

But this poison was hard to deal with.

"Are you familiar with this poison?" Nan Hua didn't know the name, but she knew the few effects and the probable herbs that were used to make it. The drilling that Traveling Doctor Liu gave her many years ago was still printed clear in her mind.

"No. I have only encounter it twice before with my master." Doctor Hei sighed. "It's a bit hard to deal with."

"Is it?" Nan Hua didn't know who Doctor Hei's master is, but this kind of poison was not that hard to deal for her. Traveling Doctor Liu himself had already told her several methods that she could use and also the few herbs that were suitable to deal with.

Doctor Hei looked at Nan Hua in astonishment. "Do you know how to deal with it?"

"Yeah."

Nan Hua saw Hui Ling returned with a basin of herbs and inspected it before nodding. She then proceeded to grind them and then boil it in water after arranging the order and amount. Within a quarter of incense stick of time, she was done and then moved to the soldier to cure him.

"Doctor Hei, is it fine to trust an unknown prescription like this?" one of the doctors asked with doubt.

"Yeah. We have never heard of it." Another one chirped in.

"We all learned different medicines from various masters, so I'm sure that you also have some kind of prescription that you never showed to the world." Doctor Hei looked at the other doctors and shook his head. "Rather than having no chance, it's better to just take the gamble."

While they were all doctors, there was no specific institution to teach them aside from the barely built hospital in the Capital City. But even there, the teaching was limited and there were not many capable people.

If they had some capabilities, a lot of people would also claim to become a doctor.

And those who were the best could be selected to enter the palace as Imperial Doctor. But aside from them, there would still be some other doctors who didn't want fame and only hoped to help as much people as possible.

Nan Hua ignored these people and instructed Chu Yue to fed the medicine to the soldier. In any case, it would detoxify the poison slowly, but it would indeed take a few incense stick of time for him to recover.

In the meantime, Nan Hua stitched his wound and bandaged it.

Once it was done, Nan Hua then walked away.

"Doctor Jun."

Nan Hua stopped and turned around, her expression was cold and indifferent. It made her look quite unapproachable. "Yes?"

"Please take some rest." Doctor Hei smiled. "There will be some other soldiers who will watch over these patients."

The doctors couldn't possibly wait for the soldiers all the time. Thus, it was usually the reserve soldiers who kept watch and if there was anything wrong, they would call the doctor for them.

"You too." Nan Hua nodded and continued to walk away.

The doctors there looked at each other. One of them shrugged. "Doctor Jun might not like to interact with us that much."

"Well, we're only here to treat the patients anyway. After this is over or if we're called to somewhere else, we will leave." Another one sighed.

They were not exactly military doctors. Only a portion of them were. The rest were here for the sake of money that was offered or for more experience.
