Chapter 74. Duan Liren's Past (Part 2)

Faced with the enemy dozens of times his own, Nishang's tribe members could not resist. Nishang didn't care at all about killing her a moment ago, and turned to protect the safety of the tribe members with their swords. But the father brought too many homes. More than a dozen tribe members fell down in front of Nishang one by one, and in the end she was the only one left.

After dealing with all Nishang's tribe members, my father took me forward. He didn't lie to me. He actually wanted Nishang to teach the swordsmanship of Yue Army. Of course Nishang could refuse. The answer given by his father was "death". Looking at Nishang, covered in blood, I felt a heart-wrenching pain, as if losing her was like losing the whole world. This was an experience I had never had in twenty years. I ran to Nishang like crazy and said that I like her and asked her to agree to her father's request. I was willing to be with her for the rest of my life.

Holding Nishang's hand, I couldn't feel any warmth. She gently pulled my hand away and whispered, "You lied to me." Her voice was empty and ethereal, like clouds in the sky. Then Nishang pushed me away, turned around and pierced the throat of the general behind her. After tearing a small mouth, Nishang turned into a white light and ran out, but her legs had long been scratched by the sharp weapon of the tribe's tribe, leaving a patch of blood wherever she passed.

My father ordered the generals to chase after him, and finally after being blocked all the way, Nishang was forced to the top of the cliff. The road leading to the cliff was full of the bodies of my Duan family generals. Similarly, Nishang on the top of the mountain was already covered with scars. My father, who caught up, was furious in an instant when he saw many generals dying under Nishang's sword. He no longer said anything to Nishang, but wanted to take her life directly.

I went up the mountain with my father. After hearing my father's final decision, I panicked and knelt down and begged my father to let Nishang go, saying that all this was obviously what we forced her, so why did she blame her in the end? But my father ignored my begging. Haha, he will always be like this, and once the decision is made, it will never change.

When I watched a group of family generals surrounded Nishang, who was seriously injured and fell to the ground by the cliff, I felt in a mess. I didn't know where the courage came from. For the first time, I went against my father's will, so I suddenly got up and pulled out the sword from my father's waist and rushed towards Nishang. Caught off guard, I injured several people one after another, and then the family generals who rushed up were pressed under me and could not move. If they dared not hurt me, I could only control me.

The weight of hundreds of kilograms on my body was so heavy that I couldn't move. Nishang on the top of the mountain did not notice my movements, but I kept looking at her. Through the gap between the family, I could vaguely see that when I was about to be arrested, Nishang turned over and fell into the cliff. I struggled hard, but still couldn't get rid of the pressure on my body. I could only make a heart-wrenching roar until everything came to peace."

Speaking of this, Duan Liren closed his eyes in pain. Hua Chen was immersed in the story. He did not see Duan Liren's expression and blurted out, "What?"

Duan Liren said self-deprecatingly: "Then, haha, then I fell seriously ill, and all the doctors were helpless about it. Even the doctors invited from the Yue Palace said that I would die. But I was so lucky that I survived somehow. During the more than a month of bedtime, I woke up and slept more frequently, and I repeated the same dream every day. In the dream, Nishang and I were still in the dense forest. Not only that, we also built several small houses together, planted several acres of land, raised several chickens and ducks, and later there was a cute baby, whom I named her Duan Nianni.

After recovering from the illness, I woke up from my dream. I was reluctant to do so. The reality was like this and could not be changed. The first thing I did after recovering from the illness was to ask my father for the sword book and medical books. I had just recovered from the serious illness, and my father did not dare to go against my wishes, for fear of the recurrence of the disease, so he returned the two books to me. In front of my father, I took the thread of the sword book, broke the bamboo pieces one by one, threw them into the sky and scattered all over the ground, and then picked up the medical books and walked out of the Duan Mansion. So far, I have only been back twice, which is his fiftieth and sixtyth birthdays."

"Where is Nishang?" Hua Chen knew she was fine, otherwise there would be A Qing now, but he didn't know whether Duan Liren knew all this.

"Ni Shang~ I have never seen her again. Maybe she fell off the cliff and died and left the world from now on; or maybe she survived by chance but didn't want to see me again. In short, I haven't received any news about her in the past few decades."

Hua Chen wanted to say something but stopped. He wanted to tell Duan Liren that Nishang did survive the cliff fall, but he still didn't say it. Nishang is no longer here and is no longer the Nishang that Duan Liren knew. This can be seen from the fact that she did not teach A Qing's medical skills and the thoughts she instilled in A Qing. After resolutely dispelling the thoughts, Hua Chen said, "Did you go to Shaocheng after you leave Duan's mansion?"

"Yes, after leaving Duan Mansion, I didn't know where to go after leaving Kuaiji, so I remembered this border town that I would pass by every time I met Nishang. In Shaocheng, I lived at the home of an old couple. They thought I was homeless and took me in. I couldn't find Nishang, and I only had the medical skills she gave me by my side, so I looked through them all day long and was attracted by them unknowingly. And whenever I picked up the medical book, I could feel Nishang was by my side.

The sword can kill people, and the doctor can save people. I first chose the killing skill but failed to protect my beloved person. I watched her jump off the cliff but could not do anything. So what is the use of this killing skill? However, this rescue method has become a bond that I have for decades later.

I lived in folk life, studied the prescriptions in medical books, and at the same time I personally practiced it, and unknowingly mastered some methods to cure diseases and save people. At the same time, the lives of ordinary people infected me again. This is a kind of unrestrained life, a group of simple and natural people, who may live in poverty, hardships, and have been exploited by the nobles, but even if there is a moment of leisure, it is true freedom.

I fell in love with this kind of life and fell in love with this group of people. Because of love, I gradually healed the trauma caused by Nishang's departure. I remember that Nishang once told me in the dense forest that she had a wish, hoping that everyone was equal, that people could abandon hatred and prejudice and live together.

I have no intention of resolving the hatred between the Jiuli tribes where Nishang is located and other tribes in Nanyue and the people of Yue, and I am unable to do anything, but I can do my best to be equal. Someone is cured when the nobles are sick, and civilians should not have to wait for death when they are sick.

If this great epidemic in Chu State occurred in Yingdu and even in the palace of the King of Chu, then with a huge reward, I am afraid that any talented doctor in the world will flock to it. However, this plague occurred among the people and was distributed to civilians without power, power, and money, and not many people would like to pay attention to it. Others can do this, but I can't do it. After all, those epidemic people also have the right to survive."

"In terms of medical skills, Brother Duan, you are not as good as me; but in terms of medical heart, I am far inferior to you."
