In an open space, a group of students from the Yellow Turban Academy surrounded a middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged woman protected her bag, her aura no less imposing than the group of robbers. She had already taken down several men with her silver needles, but she was outnumbered and was about to be on the verge of losing.
She has poison that can incapacitate these people, but once the antidote runs out, she herself will also be affected.
Just when she was determined to burn her bridges and perish with them...
The arrows pierced the wind, felling one Yellow Turban Academy student after another.
"Are you alright?" Xia Xiang asked as she approached.
The arrows were coated with a sedative, and she avoided vital spots, so these people would only suffer minor injuries.
"It's nothing, thank you," the miracle doctor said, clasping his hands in gratitude.
“This area is remote and often frequented by Yellow Turban bandits.” Xia Xiang turned her head and looked around. “Anyway, I will pass through the city ahead, so we can travel together.”
The doctor thought for a moment and then nodded cautiously.
——
Xia Xiang didn't take a boat or teleport; she simply wanted to walk by herself. But now that it was a two-person trip, she was starting to feel incredibly awkward.
"My name is Ye Siwu. What's your name?" Xia Xiang asked.
"Just call me Madam Xia," the divine physician said indifferently.
"Mrs. Xia, how come you're all alone in that desolate place?" Xia Xiang thought she should try to start a conversation.
The doctor, who was "just passing by," was relatively nice because Xia Xiang had saved her, but he was still quite indifferent.
Xia Xiang didn't care. Madam Xia had been hurt by her in her past life, so this was just paying back the debt.
The two chatted casually when anxious cries for help came from under the shade of a tree in the distance.
Xia Xiang: Hmm? Today is a good day for saving lives?
Although the doctor had an eccentric personality, he was ultimately a compassionate healer. He rushed over quickly, identified himself, and began a rapid and simple examination.
"Save him, save my son! He's had a heart condition since he was a child!" the woman cried, pleading.
The more the doctor examined her, the more uncontrollably her hands trembled.
Xia Xiang noticed something was wrong with her and quickly stepped forward, unbuttoned the collar of the child lying on the ground, and began first aid.
"Mrs. Xia, do you have any medicine? Hurry!" Xia Xiang called for the miracle doctor while performing CPR.
"Yes, yes," the doctor said, his hands trembling as he rummaged through his bag, leaving the priceless medicines scattered on the grass.
She has carried it with her all these years.
She was just a little panicked, thinking of her Bo Ren, wondering if his expression was also in so much pain when he had an attack.
After taking the medicine, the child lying on the ground quickly returned to normal, and all three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
The child's mother cried, her voice trembling, repeatedly expressing her gratitude to Xia Xiang and the miracle doctor.
Xia Xiang noticed the doctor's unease and said goodbye to the lady's family after they returned. She then continued on her original route into the city.
“I also have a son, named Bo Ren.” The miracle doctor rarely spoke up. “He was also in poor health since he was a child, but I couldn’t save him, so I feel very guilty.”
"In that instant, I felt as if I could see his painful struggle before he died. I am not a good doctor, nor am I a good mother."
Xia Xiang patted her back reassuringly.
"Perhaps Bo Ren is watching over you from heaven, which is why you met that child today and were able to save him. You saved another child because of the medicine he always carries with him, and he would be very happy too."
"Waaaaah~" The miracle doctor immediately hugged Xia Xiang and burst into tears.
Xia Xiang: Was my way of comforting people wrong? Why are they crying even harder?
"He's watching over you from heaven. If you're so sad, he must be crying even harder. You have to be optimistic and strong. You are a great mother and a great doctor."
"Waaaaah—" The miracle doctor cried even louder.
Xia Xiang: Okay, I'll shut up. (⊙x⊙;)
