Chapter 11: Departure

"What's wrong?"

Yun Que saw that Le Qingyi held the silver needle for a long time and did not move, walked over, looked at the thin boy lying on the bed and asked.

"This child's illness ...... I...... I can't cure it. ”

Le Qingyi put away the silver needle and sat on the edge of the bed with some loss, with a sad look in his eyes.

For the first time, she felt powerless against a certain patient, although she had not been practicing medicine for a long time, but because she was born in a medical family, she had read medical books and classics since she was a child, and she had an understanding of all kinds of incurable diseases, but this child's illness, she searched the memories in her mind, and did not find a trace of this disease.

Even if you know that a patient is sick and needs treatment, if you don't know anything about his illness, then you have nothing to do.

As a healer, the patient is right in front of you, but you can't do anything, which is the most painful thing.

As soon as Le Qingyi's words fell, the woman who heard this collapsed to the ground as if she had lost all her pillars, and her haggard face suddenly turned pale and bloodless.

"It's okay, if you can't cure it, it doesn't mean that no one can cure this disease, we can let the people in your family come to see, they have practiced medicine for many years and have rich experience, and there will definitely be a way." ”

Yun Que reached out and touched Le Qingyi's head, and said comfortingly.

He doesn't know such a thing as curing diseases and saving people, but seeing Le Qingyi's lost and sad face, he can also feel a little bit of that feeling.

"It's useless, this kid, it's not going to work anymore. ”

Le Qingyi shook her head a little painfully, although she couldn't tell what kind of disease the child had, but as a doctor, she could still judge the patient's physical condition.

This child has already been terminally ill, according to Le Qingyi's diagnosis, this child should have died a long time ago, but for some reason, he has persevered tenaciously until now.

Seeing that a child who was only five or six years old could endure this kind of pain that should not belong to his age and should bear in order to live, Le Qingyi felt guilty and ashamed of his incompetence every time he thought of this.

What a cruel thing it is for a child to insist on a healer who has come not to save him, but to pronounce his death.

"Master is right, I'm far from being a true healer. ”

Le Qingyi gently leaned her head on Yun Que, and she suddenly remembered what the master told her when she was leaving.

"Never be complacent about saving one or two people, thinking that you are already a master of saving lives and helping the wounded, there is no end to learning, and the same is true on the road of medicine, only when you will not be unable to save the person in front of you, you can be regarded as a real healer. ”

Le Qingyi still thinks about it, and she still clearly remembers the trace of pain that flashed in her eyes when the master said these words.

"Master's medical skills are so powerful, are there people who can't be saved?"

At that time, when she heard Master say this, she couldn't believe it, because in her impression, her Master never claimed to be a healer.

"Xiaoyi, you have to remember that no matter how good a person's medical skills are, there are times when he is helpless, if one day you meet a person who you can't save no matter what, then all you can do is let him leave without pain. ”

Le Qingyi still remembers the surprise on her face when she heard her master explain her like this, at that time she naively thought that there was no disease that could not be cured, the difference was only in whether it was easy to cure or difficult to treat.

Just when Le Qingyi was suffering from her incompetence, the woman who was paralyzed on the ground didn't know what to remember, suddenly stood up and ran towards the outside of the house.

I saw her walking to the bed with a stone bowl full of water, bending down, stretching out her hand to dip it in water, gently wiping the thin boy's face, she had a wound on her hand, as if she was afraid that the hard scar on the wound would hurt the thin boy, her movements were very gentle, like a breeze blowing through the water, not even a small ripple appeared.

In a few moments, the dust on the thin boy's face was wiped away, revealing a somewhat thin and delicate face, the thin boy closed his eyes tightly, and the expression on his face was flat, without a trace of pain tormented by illness, as if he was asleep.

After wiping the thin boy's face, the woman slowly lay down in front of the bed as if she had exhausted all her strength, stretched out a hand to hold the thin boy's small hand, and put her head on the bed, looking at the thin boy who seemed to be asleep, with a smile on her haggard face.

Yun Que helped Le Qingyi up from the bed, pulled her to stand aside, and looked at the woman who was sleeping holding the thin boy's hand, a trace of pity flashed in her eyes.

Yan Chi saw this scene and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Yun Que raising his hand, Yun Que stretched out his hand and pointed outside, and the three of them slowly walked out of the hut.

"I will arrange for someone to bury the mother and son. ”

Yan Chi looked at the thatched house in front of him and said in a deep voice.

"This bothers Brother Yan, although I have never met their mother and son, but I still thank Brother Yan for the two of them. ”

Yun Que looked at the dilapidated thatched house in front of him, turned around and thanked Xie Yanchi solemnly.

"Well, it's my fault too, if I had found out about it sooner, maybe it wouldn't have been the way it is. ”

Yan Chi sighed when he heard this, feeling a little guilty, if he could have found out about this earlier, maybe things would have been different.

"This has nothing to do with Brother Yan, even if you stop it today, but the matter will not go away, in order to save her child, that woman will still be like this, maybe this is fate. ”

For some reason, Yun Que remembered what he had seen and heard on the road again, and those people were the same, although the encounters were different, but the ending was the same.

"When I go back, I will definitely let the family deal with the shopkeeper, we don't have such a person in Lejia. ”

Le Qingyi thought of the brocade-clothed man who beat the woman with a whip, and a chill appeared on his face.

Although she doesn't like to use force to deal with people, it doesn't mean that she won't use force to deal with people, sometimes fists are more useful than reason.

"Welcome home. ”

Just as Yun Que and the three of them were talking, a group of people wearing green clothes and carrying a medicine box on their backs suddenly appeared behind Yun Que and the three of them.

"Miss came back, the old servant was late, and I hope that Miss will forgive her sins. ”

A white-haired old man walked out of the people in Tsing Yi, he walked up to Yun Que and the three of them, and bowed to Le Qingyi, who was standing next to Yun Que.

"Uncle Wu, why is your old man here, I can't stand your little clothes like this!"

Le Qingyi, who was standing next to Yun Que, saw the old man, his face showed a look of surprise, and then he walked over with some joy to help the old man up.

"Now it's so messy outside, the old master is worried that you are worried, this doesn't send out all my old bones, for fear that your precious granddaughter will be hurt a little. ”

When Uncle Wu saw Le Qingyi, he reached out and patted her little head, with a kind smile on his face, he was the old man of the Le family, and he grew up watching Le Qingyi since he was a child.

"Hehe! My grandfather is worried about me, Uncle Wu, aren't you worried about me?

Le Qingyi smiled when he heard this, and then shook Uncle Wu's arm pretending to be angry and asked.

"Alas, don't shake it, Uncle Wu's old bones are going to be shaken away by you, if Uncle Wu doesn't worry about you, can he come all the way to pick you up?"

Uncle Wu was shaken by Le Qingyi, and he was a little unsteady on his feet, and gently patted Le Qingyi's little head and said.

"Hehe, grandpa just loves to worry about it, with Brother Yun protecting me, what can I do?"

Le Qingyi mentioned the old man at home and pouted with some dissatisfaction.

"You!"

When Uncle Wu saw Le Qingyi's appearance, he stretched out his hand and nodded her forehead helplessly.

"Hello Uncle Wu!"

Seeing that the two of them were finished talking about the old days, Yun Que also stepped forward and saluted the old man.

"Okay! I haven't seen you for a few years, the original boy has grown up, and time flies so fast!"

The old man looked at Yun Que, who had grown up, with a tall posture and a dignified appearance, and he also sighed a little that time had passed.

"This is a friend of mine, named Yanchi, who has an inn in the town. ”

Yun Que saw that the old man looked at Yan Chi who was standing aside, and opened his mouth to introduce the old man.

"Hello senior!"

Yan Chi saw the old man looking at him, and he also bowed.

"You're a child of the Lao Yan family! yes, yes. ”

The old man seemed to know Yan Chi, and when he saw him, there was a look of appreciation in his eyes.

"Uncle Wu, since your old man is here in person, then I can rest assured, Xiaoyi will be handed over to you, and I should do my own thing. ”

Yun Que glanced at Le Qingyi, who was pulling the old man's arm, and was also relieved.

"Okay, you're old too, it's time to deal with that, just remember, be careful, don't be careless. ”

When the old man heard Yun Que's words, a trace of reminiscence flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at Yun Que and explained a few words.

"Brother, I'm waiting for you to come and see me, if you miss the appointment, I'll tell Sister Tsing Yi to ignore you anymore. ”

Le Qingyi, who was pulling the old man's arm, looked at Yun Que and threatened.

"Rest assured. ”

Yun Que looked at Le Qingyi, agreed, and then turned to leave.

"Senior, goodbye. ”

When Yan Chi saw Yun Que leaving, he also hugged the old man and turned around to keep up with Yun Que's footsteps.

Looking at the back of Yun Que leaving, Le Qingyi's face showed a sad look, I don't know when I will see you again.
