Jinling.
To a remote village to the south.
A woman was running wildly on the hillside, her clothes curling in the air.
Behind her, a man was following closely.
Qu Shiqing bent over slightly, supported his hands on his knees, and breathed heavily.
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, and then I felt a little better.
He stretched out a hand and waved at the person in front of him, "Don't run, don't run, I can't catch up."
As soon as he finished speaking, the woman in front of him turned her head suddenly, put her hands behind her back, and stepped back step by step.
"Hurry up and get going. We're just getting started. As doctors, our breath is paramount."
Her eyebrows curved, and she smiled at Qu Shiqing, "Do you think your medical skills are better, yours or mine?"
As soon as Qu Shiqing raised her hand, the person in front of her held her hand tightly, and with a little force, pulled her in front of him.
The two walked side by side.
Then, the two slowed down their pace.
Tu Ling walked slowly, head lowered, and gently kicked the stones under her feet. "Your breath is so weak, how did you treat the patient before?"
Tu Ling raised her head slightly, looked sideways at Qu Shiqing and asked word by word.
There seemed to be thousands of stars twinkling in her eyes.
Qu Shiqing shrugged. "There are treatments for stable auras, and there are also treatments for unstable auras."
The two of them looked forward at the same time, taking in the scenery below.
Qu Shiqing paused and said tentatively, "What do you think of what I told you earlier?"
The smile on Tu Ling's face gradually faded.
She slowly stood up, her expression complicated. "There's something I've wanted to ask you for a long time. Do you also think that I've done too many bad things before and don't deserve good things?"
She hesitated for a moment, but still said what she was thinking, "Including you."
Qu Shiqing shook his head and quickly stood up. "Why are you suddenly talking about this again? I won't comment on what happened before, but you already know it was wrong and you won't do it again. Besides, you sincerely want to change and have taken action to do so."
He continued seriously, "How many people in this world know they're wrong, but they only ever say it. It's already pretty good that you're doing this, and you can't keep using the past to drag yourself down, right?"
Tu Ling turned her head to the side and said, "No, you don't understand. If I had the chance, I would still like to apologize to both of them in person, but I'm afraid we won't have the chance to meet again."
Qu Shiqing raised his eyes slightly, his gaze fixed on the figure in front of him.
He met Tu Ling when he arrived in Shengjing.
At first he just wanted to save her, but as they got to know each other better, he felt that this woman was the strangest person he had ever met.
Although the other party did do some wrong things before, she is not a bad person by nature.
They had been staying in Shengjing for the past two years, until a while ago when they set out for Jinling.
His biggest goal in life is to travel around the world and cure diseases and save lives.
The corners of Qu Shiqing's mouth curled up slightly. He slowly walked behind Tu Ling, patted her shoulder, and said softly, "You don't have to blame yourself so much anymore, and you don't have to be sad about this anymore. As long as you continue to treat those poor people with me, isn't this a form of apology?"
Tu Ling's face was slightly puzzled, and she blurted out subconsciously, "Atonement?"
Seeing that the other party had taken his words to heart, Qu Shiqing nodded quickly. "Yes, think about those who don't have money to see a doctor. Only death awaits them. As the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. How many lives have we saved and how many pagodas have we built along the way?"
Tu Ling bit her lips lightly and lowered her head in thought.
He seemed to be thinking about how much of what the other person said was worthy of belief.
While Tu Ling lowered her head to think, Qu Shiqing waited patiently beside her.
There is no intention of urging me at all.
After an unknown amount of time, Tu Ling slowly raised her head and looked fixedly at the person in front of her.
If you look closely, you can see an inexplicable thought in his eyes.
"Okay, now that you've said that, it would be too hypocritical for me to bring up what happened before."
After she finished speaking, she strode towards the village.
Seeing this, Qu Shiqing followed.
"That's right. Most of the people in this village have recovered. We just need to keep the prescription with them and have them take the medicine on time, and they will be able to leave soon."
During the time from Shengjing to Jinling, he and Tu Ling had saved countless lives.
Among them, there are some people who suffered minor injuries but their lives were in danger due to lack of timely treatment.
It just so happened that the two of them were surprisingly consistent in their approach to curing illnesses and saving lives.
Although many diseases look scary, they are actually very easy to treat.
As soon as the two returned to the village, they saw many villagers standing in front of them.
These people were rescued by their hands.
Qu Shiqing and Tu Ling looked at each other. Just as they were about to speak, they saw that everyone in front of them knelt down at the same time and bowed to Qu Shiqing and Tu Ling.
The two of them were shocked and stepped forward at the same time to help the nearest person up. "What are you doing? Get up quickly."
Unexpectedly, not only did he fail to pull the man up.
Those people's faces were more sincere, "Thanks to you two coming to our village, we are where we are today."
Immediately afterwards, everyone stuffed the things in their hands into the arms of Qu Shiqing and Tu Ling.
He didn't care whether they could hold it or not. When he couldn't hold it in his arms anymore, he put it on the ground.
These things, apart from some copper coins, are some crops grown by themselves.
Tu Ling quickly waved her hands, "We don't want these copper coins. We agreed at the beginning that the treatment would be free. Now that I'm cured, you're asking for silver coins. What's going on?"
She put her hands on her hips and said loudly, "Everyone put your things away."
However, no matter what they said, the villagers were stubborn and wanted to hand the things over to them.
In desperation, the two had to tell a lie.
Tu Ling cleared her throat and said, "We will all be at the village chief's house today. Let's take our things to the village chief's house."
After nightfall, the two quietly left the village under the cover of darkness.
Besides here, there are many other places where they are needed.
There are many people in this world who cannot afford to pay for their medical treatment.
They can't stay in one place forever.
They had already found out that there was a town twenty miles away that was infected with plague.
The local county magistrate is recruiting people with excellent medical skills to come and rescue.
They are rushing over now, and the timing is just right.
The moonlight grows brighter.
The bright white moonlight sprinkled on the ground, and the shadows of the two people walking in the night were stretched longer and longer...
