Chapter 372: Chapter 260: Lu Qing’s Peculiar Attitude_2

Therefore, by the time Wei Zian brought the medicine box, Lu Qing had already perfectly set the leg bone.

The gentleness of Lu Qing’s bone-setting movements surprised the young girl, as she hardly felt any severe pain.

Next, Lu Qing used wooden planks to secure the girl’s leg bone, then sprinkled the antiseptic medicine on the mangled flesh.

“Hiss!”

As the antiseptic medicine touched the wound, the girl couldn’t help but let out a hiss of pain.

“Bear with it for a moment, it will hurt less in a while,” Lu Qing comforted.

“Young Master, will a big scar remain on my leg afterward?”

Looking at the large patch of blood and carnage on her leg, the girl couldn’t help but finally ask.

“Do you care about the scar?” Lu Qing asked.

“It’s not that, I’m already grateful enough to be alive thanks to the Young Master’s blessing, how could I dare to ask for more.”

The girl shook her head, but the disappointment in her eyes could not be concealed.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Qing said, “If you want it to leave no scar, it’s not impossible; it’s just more troublesome.”

“Young Master, you have a way?” the girl asked, her face lighting up with surprise.

“Hmm, but it requires preparing additional medicine, which means you’ll have to wait a bit.”

“Thank you, Young Master!”

The girl was tearfully grateful, as no girl doesn’t cherish her appearance. Previously, she thought there was no way, but now that she knew it was possible to avoid scars, naturally, it would be best to leave none.

“Young Master, it’s all sorted out.”

Meanwhile, Ma Gu had thrown the three bodies off the cliff and returned.

“Miss Hu, what are your plans? How about we take you back to Azure Dragon City?” Lu Qing offered.

“I can’t go back,” the girl shook her head, “Azure Dragon Pass only opens once every seven days. Until then, unless something major happens, the city gates absolutely won’t open easily. Now that the gates are closed, even if I returned, I’d have to wait seven days to enter the city.”

Lu Qing recalled the gates he had seen earlier that required dozens of Muscle Bone Realm Martial Artists to open.

He knew that it was unlikely for Azure Dragon City to make an exception just based on the girl’s status.

But they couldn’t possibly wait with the girl here for seven days.

Could this be what they call “destiny”?

A faint, mysterious expression appeared in Lu Qing’s eyes, revealing an intrigued look on his face.

“Since that’s the case, Miss Hu, if you do not mind, why not travel with us? It’s better to have someone look after you on the road, right?”

The girl had been worried that Lu Qing and the others would just leave her here, but at his words, she immediately brightened up and nodded quickly: “Thank you, Young Master!”

“Alright, let’s continue our journey then. Miss Hu, my apologies.”

Lu Qing bent down, gently picked up the girl, and walked towards the carriage.

“Master, this lady has injured her leg and has difficulty walking. It’s inappropriate to leave her alone in such a deserted place, so she will have to accompany us for the time being,” Lu Qing explained as they reached the carriage.

“No worries, we can make some space for her,” the elder doctor naturally had no objections.

He had also heard what happened outside earlier.

So with her cheeks blushing, the girl was lifted by Lu Qing into the carriage and seated in an inside position, after which Wei Zian also climbed in.

It was fortunate that their carriage was big enough, otherwise, it would have been difficult to accommodate so many people.

“Elder Ma, we’re ready, let’s go. Open up the horses, and let’s try to find a town to stay in before it gets dark,” Lu Qing said once everyone was seated.

Open up the horses?

Hearing Lu Qing’s words, Ma Gu was initially stunned, but quickly, as he felt the peculiar aura emanating around them, he understood Lu Qing’s intention.

With a touch of excitement in his heart, he cracked the whip.

The two horses pulling the carriage also seemed to sense something and excitedly lifted their hooves, starting to trot forward gradually.

Indeed, as the carriage moved forwards, the familiar Qing-colored airflow that had been present for days suddenly appeared, wrapping around the entire carriage.

Having worked together for some time, Ma Gu did not have the same problems with controlling the speed as before.

Under his control, the carriage first accelerated slowly; after more than a dozen breaths, it reached high speed and, protected by the Qing-colored airflow, began to move forward swiftly.

All of this took place silently; the people inside the carriage hardly felt any change in speed.

The girl was even less clear about what was happening outside; although there was some surprise, Lu Qing’s carriage was much steadier than she had imagined, almost free from jolting.

But now, her mind was not on that.

At this moment, her thoughts were still caught up in the embarrassment of being carried onto the carriage by Lu Qing.

Making matters worse, there was a quiet in the carriage that made her feel very awkward.

“By the way, Miss Hu, I have yet to ask for your given name.”

Lu Qing, noticing the girl’s embarrassment, casually found a topic of conversation.

“Doesn’t the gentleman know my father?” the girl asked, somewhat surprised.

“We only had a brief encounter with your esteemed father when entering the city, hardly enough to be considered acquainted,” Lu Qing said with a smile.

“Doctor Lu Qing, is this young lady the daughter of the City Guard responsible for collecting the city entrance fee when we entered the city?”

It was then that Wei Zian caught on as well.

“So the gentleman and my father are unacquainted?”

The girl realized.

She had been wondering when her father had met someone as impressive as Lu Qing and why she had never heard about it.

Turned out, he was merely a stranger who had no actual connection with her family.

With this understanding, the girl felt even more grateful.

Despite being strangers, Lu Qing had still lent a hand to save her, making the favor seem even greater.

She couldn’t help but thank him again, “Thank you, sir, for your timely rescue. If it had not been for you, I might have already…”

“Heh, to meet is to have fate, Miss Hu. Your encounter with us is a kind of destiny in itself, so there’s no need for excessive formalities,” Lu Qing said unconcernedly.

“The young lady’s name is Zezhi.”

As Lu Qing spoke of fate, the girl’s face couldn’t help but flush a bit, and she spoke softly.

“Zezhi?” Lu Qing was puzzled, “But your father called you Xiao Lian at Azure Dragon Pass, didn’t he?”

“The gentleman was there at the time too?” Hu Zezhi was startled.

“Oh, at the time of crossing the bridge, I happened to overhear you and your father speaking. I hope you don’t mind,” Lu Qing explained.

“Not at all.”

Hu Zezhi shook her head. If Lu Qing had not overheard that conversation, she might well be dead by now.

She glanced at Lu Qing and lowered her head, “Xiao Lian is my childhood nickname; my father has always been accustomed to calling me by that name.”

“I see,” Lu Qing realized, “I should probably introduce myself too. My name is Lu Qing; this is my master, Doctor Chen; this is my sister, Little Yan; and this gentleman here is the son of the Wei Family, Wei Zian.”

As Lu Qing formally introduced them, the girl hadn’t noticed anything amiss, but the elder doctor was slightly taken aback, sensing something unusual.

“Greetings to you all.”

Hu Zezhi, with evidently good upbringing, politely bowed, even though her leg was injured.

“There’s no need for such formalities.”

The elder doctor smiled slightly, but the strangeness in his heart grew more intense.

“Sister Hu, does your leg hurt?”

Right then, Little Yan looked at Hu Zezhi’s leg with concern and asked with a sweet voice.

“It does hurt a little, but after applying the medicine, it’s not as painful.”

Hu Zezhi, warmed by Little Yan’s concern, explained gently.

“Hmm, with brother here, you’ll recover quickly. The medical skills of brother and Grandpa Chen are really amazing! You’ll be alright in no time!” Little Yan said earnestly.

“Thank you.”

Hu Zezhi smiled, her pretty face causing Little Yan to stare in awe.

“Sister Hu, you’re so beautiful!” the little one said, dumbstruck.

Hu Zezhi’s face reddened, unable to help saying, “You’re also very cute, much prettier than your sister.”

“Really? So I can be as pretty as you when I grow up?”

The little one perked up instantly at the thought.

“Definitely!” Hu Zezhi nodded firmly.

She was not just being polite.

Little Yan, with her innate charm, was clearly going to grow into a beauty.

Watching the older and the younger one flattering each other, Lu Qing shook his head and smiled.

Just then, a voice rang in his mind, “Ah Qing, what has happened, and why are you treating this young lady so specially?”
