Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 817 Nian Duan is critically ill
  Chu State, the easternmost part of Jiangdong County, the old land of Wuyue, under a hill east of Zhenze.

Gu Xun put away the shameful ice crystal wings behind his back and slowly landed on the ground.

Because the Changhong Sword has been given to Fusu, if Gu Xun now wants to fly for a long time, he can only use Phoenix Dance in the Sky.

But because this method comes with special light and shadow effects, Gu Xun would rather die than perform it at night.

In other words, he couldn't fly at night.

Fortunately, although the speed of Feng Wu Tianji is far inferior to that of sword control, one day is enough to travel to most areas.

But after all, it was not particularly convenient, forcing Gu Xun to consider getting another Changhong Sword.

At present, he has plenty of funds on hand, but he still gave up the idea.

In this world, there is only Gu Xun, but the Rainbow Cat, the Changhong Sword... only one is enough.

Gu Xun stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up at the small hill, which was only three hundred meters high at most.

There is nothing noteworthy about the mountain itself. It is just a bare dirt mountain with no natural scenery at all.

Originally, this could only be a barren mountain that no one cares about, but because the residence of Nian Duan, the medical clan, was located on this mountain, it got its name - Wangshan Mountain. Because it is located in the southeast and faces the sea, it is also called Nanwang Mountain.

Gu Xun walked quickly up the mountain path.

Judging from the traces of the road, there are definitely not many people traveling up and down the mountain.

Theoretically, there should be an endless stream of people seeking medical treatment here, but because of the "three no-help" rule, few people come here.

Nianduan’s ‘three no-helps’ are:

Those who need to go down the mountain for medical treatment are not saved.

Those who took the initiative to go up the mountain to seek medical treatment were not saved.

The person named Duanmu was not saved.

Compared with her apprentice, the medical fairy Duan Murong's "Three Refusals" in the future, Nian Duan's "Three Refusals" spread to a wider area. Basically, she only treated the patients she encountered while going down the mountain to practice medicine.

Gu Xun was quite speechless when he learned about Nian Duan's "Three Failures" for the first time.

Fortunately, Nian Duanren is diligent and always running around, otherwise her rules could really be changed to a life-threatening one as Tian Ming said.

With some things flashing through his mind, Gu Xun quickly finished the not-so-long mountain road and arrived at the entrance of Nianduan Medical Village. In the yard surrounded by fences, various medicinal materials were dried, and the wooden door that formed the gate was On the wooden pillar, there was a wooden board hanging with the rule of 'Three no rescues' written on it.

Gu Xun pushed open the unlocked courtyard door and walked in directly.

The creaking sound of the door shaft turning alerted the people in the house, and a figure ran out from the main room in the courtyard.

It's Duanmu Rong.

At this time, she has grown into a tall and graceful girl.

Wearing a purple and white rattan scarf on her head, a navy blue tube top skirt, a blue and white short-sleeved shirt, white wristbands on her wrists, wrapped with a purple ribbon, and a forehead Under a pair of thin bangs and slender light eyebrows, there is a pair of deep purple eyes, revealing a coldness that is distant from others.

Duan Murong's outfit basically matched the image in Gu Xun's memory, so even though they hadn't seen her for several years, he could still recognize the grown-up girl at a glance.

"Rong'er, long time no see."

Gu Xun's appearance had not changed at all, so Duan Murong also recognized him at a glance - such a special face would be unforgettable even if he had only seen it a few times.

"It's you..." Facing this eldest brother who was once very close to her, Duan Murong's reaction after the initial surprise was not that happy. Instead, her expression was quite complicated, with a little disgust mixed with displeasure. untie.

Although Gu Xun didn't know the reason, he was not in a hurry to explore these side branches and asked directly, "How is your master?" As soon as Gu Xun mentioned Nian Duan, Duan Murong woke up from a dream and couldn't care less about what was in his heart. Xiao Jiujiu said quickly, "Mr. Gu, please go see the master quickly, she is in the room."

There is no need to worry about anything else now. Duan Murong only knows one thing. Gu Xun has medical skills that even her master admires. He is an out-and-out miracle doctor and the person most likely to save Nian Duan in the world. .

"Let's go into the house." Gu Xun said without hesitation and took the lead to walk towards the house.

Duan Murong hurriedly followed.

As soon as I entered the room, I was hit by the pungent smell of the soup.

It seems that Nian Duan has been taking a lot of medicine during this period.

Gu Xun walked into the back room without pausing and saw Nianduan lying on the bed.

The cold and picturesque medical master is still as beautiful as ever, and the years have not left many traces.

The only fly in the ointment is that her face is too pale at this time. Even the whitest and smoothest snowflake paper is far inferior to Nian Duan's face.

It was a face as cold as death.

When she heard the sound, she turned her head slightly to look at the door with difficulty, and then she saw Gu Xun, a visitor who was completely unexpected.

"You...how did you..."

Nianduan, who was too weak, said a few words and became a little weak.

Gu Xun hurried over, reached out to touch her wrist, and said, "Stop talking."

Nianduan also knew that it was really not appropriate for him to waste his energy at this time. Although he was confused, he refrained from asking questions.

Gu Xun felt Nian Duan's pulse carefully, and his face couldn't help but become more and more ugly.

Duan Murong looked at Gu Xun expectantly, hoping to get good news.

Gu Xun looked at Duan Murong from the corner of his eye and found that even though the child had a colder temperament than her master, he could not hide the tiredness in his brows.

Duan Murong, who has followed Nian Duan everywhere since she was a child, is not bad in physical fitness. The fatigue on her face is probably more due to psychological pressure.

After a moment, Gu Xun withdrew his hand to feel the pulse, turned around and asked Duanmu Rong, "Rong'er, what happened? How could your master's health suddenly deteriorate to this point?"

At this time, Nian Duan's physical condition was almost exhausted, and he was just one breath away from dying.

Compared with her, Han Fei, who was in the worst physical condition, could be called a dragon or a tiger.

How could a doctor, a miracle doctor, ruin his body to such a degree of virtue?

An uncontrollable sadness appeared on Duan Murong's face, and she answered after a moment of silence:
  "Master is here to save people..."

"In the past few years, wars have occurred frequently and plagues have broken out in various places. The master has been busy treating plagues in various places."

"Master...she took the initiative to infect herself with the disease many times in order to come up with a treatment method faster to experience the difference in the effects of the medicine, and then her body..."

Duan Murong's voice became more and more choked, and she couldn't help but have a faint glimmer of water in her eyes.

After Gu Xun listened to Duan Murong's answer quietly, his expression became even more ugly.

Now, he finally understood how Nianduan got himself into this state.
