Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 2087  Why?

Yu Zheng Xi looked at his master and sighed, but he didn't say anything more. He knew more than anyone aside from his third senior brother how heartbroken Traveling Doctor Liu was when he lost his seventh disciple many years ago. There were many disciples whom Traveling Doctor Liu had taken. And this old man loves and care for each and every single one of them. But fate was not kind enough.

Because of the position and situation involving these disciples, they were bound by constraints of the world and also various other matters. They couldn't escape and had to face their own demise that was brought to their door. It was Traveling Doctor Liu's dream to spread his medical capabilities to the entire world.

But it was only after facing the death of his seventh disciple did he realize how naive he was and that there were many constraints that they all faced. They couldn't escape even if they wanted to. Shan Yu couldn't return to Fan Yi Kingdom's territory because of his past.

Lin Xia was bound by the Lin Family and could only stay with Traveling Doctor Liu for a short period of him.

Great General Wei, Wei Da Lang, was bound by his position as the great general and his strong sense of responsibility towards his kingdom. Qi Kan Tian, the Emperor of Qi Xi Kingdom, had to stay in his imperial palace because of his position and also responsibility. And so on.

Each and every single one of them had things they wanted to do and not all of them could become pure doctors.

There were only four disciples who ended up as doctors, even if it was only for a period of time in their lives, which is the first disciple, Chen Yuan, Feng Qing Lan, and Luo Qing Wei.

But two of them had passed away.

Now, only two people were still working hard to fulfill their duties as a doctor. He himself could not do it. Even if he had started to learn more of medicine compared to before, but he was already old and his brain was no longer as good as it used to be. Yu Zheng Xi could never become a true doctor like what Traveling Doctor Liu wanted. Traveling Doctor Liu also didn't force it. "Master, why did you take Kuang Shen as your disciple?" Yu Zheng Xi suddenly asked.

He was actually present when Traveling Doctor Liu took Kuang Shen as his disciple back then. After all, he has been shadowing Traveling Doctor Liu for almost his entire life. So that day, he also saw Traveling Doctor Liu was approached the young boy who was struggling for life. But he didn't understand.

Why did Traveling Doctor Liu accepted Kuang Shen as his disciple. In fact, Yu Zheng Xi could see that many of Traveling Doctor Liu's action of taking disciple was also based on impulse and not only because of their talent.

Because sometimes, there was not enough time to thoroughly assess their knowledge.

And Traveling Doctor Liu would be the one to teach them in the end. Traveling Doctor Liu heard this question and passed a look at Yu Zheng Xi. "Why do you think I took you as my disciple?"

Why did he took him as his disciple?

Yu Zheng Xi fell into silence.

When Traveling Doctor Liu met Yu Zheng Xi for the first time, he was already in his twenties and no longer a young man. For a person to pass down their medical skills, it would be better to find teenagers and children because they could learn faster.

As for adults?

It was rare for them to find an adult to be their disciple because it would be harder for them to learn so many things with their thinking was already fixed.

Besides, the adults usually have a lot more problems in their lives.

The things that they never paid attention to when they were a child, would be something they concerned about almost every single day when they were adult. Their minds also showed maturity different from when they were young. "You're being chased and injured," Traveling Doctor Liu said slowly. "But I can see that you want to live."

Yu Zheng Xi didn't answer.

He was the oldest disciple in terms of age even though he was not Traveling Doctor Liu's first disciple. Even the first senior and also Second Sister Lin were younger than him. So when Traveling Doctor Liu met him back then, he was by no means young. He could also think more than the other disciples who were still young and following Traveling Doctor Liu. Or other disciples who were somewhere else.

Yu Zheng Xi recalled the conversation between Traveling Doctor Liu and Shan Yu.

Shan Yu once teased Traveling Doctor Liu because of him. To be exact, it was because of his status and his situation. To be honest, it was not like no one knew Yu Zheng Xi was still alive. But his brother, the former emperor who had passed away so many years ago, concealed it.

He was declared missing or could even be called death.

So no one knew him.

Yu Zheng Xi didn't think this was anything bad for him because he didn't really need these things to live. He only wanted to be free and lived with his master without the need to worry about those things.

Now that he thought about it again, Yu Zheng Xi's talent in medicine was actually the worst among all disciple. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Because he almost didn't touch medicine at all aside from some learning in his early days when following Traveling Doctor Liu.

After that, he simply assumed the role of a shadow guard to protect Traveling Doctor Liu. Facing this disciple, Traveling Doctor Liu also sighed but he didn't stop Yu Zheng Xi because he knew that Yu Zheng Xi had no intention to become a doctor. Perhaps, the only reason why Yu Zheng Xi accepted his offer back then was simply to save his life.
