Chapter 62 Gift of Knife
"Master, please eat something first."
Lu Qing brought in some food.
Because Young Master Wei's condition was not optimistic, the old doctor had to stay on duty at all times and could hardly leave the ward.
Lu Qing went to the kitchen to make some food and brought it over.
"Well, put it here first, I'll eat it later."
The old doctor was taking Young Master Wei's pulse, his brows slightly furrowed.
At this time, Guard Li was arranging things outside. Only the master and his disciple and the unconscious Young Master Wei were in the ward.
Lu Qing thought for a moment and asked, "Master, can this young master be saved?"
"It's hard to say." The old doctor sighed, "He lost too much blood. When he was first brought here, there was not much blood left in his body. If it weren't for his good physical condition and the life-saving medicine given to him by Guard Li, I'm afraid he would have died before he was brought here."
"Master, I think this young master's family background seems to be extraordinary. If he can't wake up, will the Wei family vent their anger on us?" Lu Qing asked.
The old doctor paused.
Then he turned around and said to Lu Qing: "Ah Qing, you have to remember that as doctors, when we treat patients, the most taboo thing is to look ahead and behind and hesitate."
"Since you have decided to save someone, you must devote your whole heart and soul to treating them. This is medical ethics."
"If you don't want treatment, you should walk away and ignore it before you even start."
"But once you start treatment, you should do your best and don't give up halfway, lest you feel guilty."
"Disciple will remember it." Lu Qing responded seriously.
"As for your worries..." The old doctor paused for a moment before saying, "Don't worry, the Wei family is a big family, and the head of the Wei family is not an unreasonable person. We are just curing illnesses and saving lives. Even if the young master really encounters misfortune, he can't vent his anger on us."
Lu Qing seemed to be thinking about something.
After coming out of the ward, Lu Qing was still thinking about what his master had said.
Of course, he did not completely agree with his master's words.
The master has a kind heart and cannot bear to see others suffer, so he treats all patients equally as long as they are not extremely evil.
But Lu Qing did not have such noble sentiments.
He prefers to help people according to his likes and dislikes.
However, there was one thing that the master said that he still agreed with.
It is either not to treat it or not to treat it. If you have decided to treat it, you should do your best to treat it and do it with a clear conscience.
"Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu."
Lu Qing was thinking about it when he suddenly heard someone calling him.
When he looked up, he saw Magu standing outside the yard, waving at him.
"Master Ma, what's the matter?"
Lu Qing walked over.
As for the Wei family guards guarding the yard, they just glanced over here and ignored them.
For them, nothing matters at the moment, the safety of their son is more important.
Lu Qing followed Ma Gu all the way to a secluded place.
There was another person waiting there. Lu Qing recognized him and he seemed to be one of Magu's men.
"Master Ma, what's the matter?" Lu Qing asked.
"Mr. Lu, this time it's all thanks to you and Old Doctor Chen, otherwise Mr. Wei's life would have been hard to save." Ma Gu said with some fear, "If anything happened to Mr. Wei, you might not see me anymore in the future."
"Mr. Ma, you are too polite. It's mainly because my master is very capable. I'm just helping out and I can't be of much help." Lu Qing shook his head.
"Mr. Lu, you are too modest. With your skills in picking and boiling herbs, you will definitely become a great doctor like your master in the future."
Ma Gu is not a person who knows nothing.
In the previous emergency situation, Lu Qing was still able to perfectly follow Doctor Chen's requirements and quickly boil the necessary life-saving medicine.
This would be impossible to achieve without good psychological quality and a solid medical foundation.
According to the investigation of his subordinate Xiaotian, Lu Qing had been the old doctor's disciple for not long.
It has grown to this point in such a short period of time.
Lu Qing's talent in medicine is probably not inferior to his talent in martial arts.
As a young man with excellent talents in both martial arts and medicine, Lu Qing means more and more in Ma Gu's heart.
"Mr. Lu, didn't you say last time that you wanted a sword? I brought it to you."
Without waiting for Lu Qing to continue being humble, Ma Gu said again.
"So soon?" Lu Qing was surprised. "Didn't they say that we can only get the knife when the next big market day comes?"
"I will naturally pay more attention to Mr. Lu's affairs." Ma Gu waved his hand behind him, "Xiaotian, bring the knife over here."
Xiaotian behind him immediately presented the long sword he had been holding in his arms with both hands.
Ma Gu took it and handed it to Lu Qing.
"This sword was carefully crafted by a great blacksmith in the city. It can cut iron like mud, is very tough, and has a simple style. It completely meets your requirements, Mr. Lu."
Lu Qing took the knife and pulled it out of the sheath, only to hear a pleasant sound of the knife.
He looked at the sword in his hand and saw that the blade had fine patterns on it and was extremely sharp. It was so cold that it made his skin go hairy.
After sheathing the knife, Lu Qing asked in confusion: "Master Ma, this knife should be worth a lot of money. I don't have enough money to buy it."
Even though Lu Qing didn't know much about swords, he could tell at a glance that the sword in his hand was definitely not something that could be bought with just a few dozen taels of silver.
"How can I ask you, Mr. Lu, to pay for this knife? Consider it a gift from me," said Ma Gu.
"That won't do. It's too expensive." Lu Qing shook his head and handed the knife back.
"Young Master Lu, you don't have to refuse." Ma Gu said hurriedly, "This time you and your master saved Young Master Wei's life, which means you saved my life. How can I repay your life-saving grace with just a sword? So please accept this sword."
The two of them were pulling each other, and finally, Lu Qing became really impatient.
He said directly: "Well, the young master's current condition is still unclear. If he really wakes up in the future, I will take this knife."
At worst, if the young master of the Wei family really encounters any crisis, he can just take out the hundred-year-old ginseng from his home.
"Okay, let's do as Young Master Lu said. I'll leave this knife with you first. If Young Master Wei wakes up, the knife will be yours. If he doesn't wake up, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep it anymore."
“…”
Lu Qing didn't know what to say about Ma Gu's sticky attitude.
So in the end, the knife remained in Lu Qing's hands temporarily.
However, this also made Lu Qing a little curious about the Wei family.
What kind of family could make a powerful bone and muscle realm expert like Magu, who has a background, so afraid?
The same thing goes for the Wei family guards, whose words reveal their respect for their master.
"Master Ma, what is the origin of this Wei family that makes you so in awe?"
Out of curiosity, Lu Qing couldn't help but ask softly.
"The Wei family?" Ma Gu heard this and a complicated expression appeared on his face. "This Wei family is really amazing."
