CHAPTER 149: CHAPTER 149: I DON’T PLAY TRICKS, I SPEAK WITH STRENGTH

She applied Spiritual Spring Water and anti-inflammatory medicine to the person’s stitched wound, then packed up the medical kit and decided to leave.

Doctor Liu reached out to stop Pei Shu’er: "What, are you planning to leave already?"

Pei Shu’er said, "I’ve healed him, he will wake up soon."

As soon as she said that, everyone first looked at each other, then burst into laughter.

The tall man said, "Stupid girl, what are you talking about? With your random tinkering, who knows if he can even survive?"

"Yeah, stitching a sack is also stitching, but your stitches look just like stitching a sack. But I’ve never seen a sack come back to life."

Pei Shu’er said, "I’ll be on Deserted Mountain, you can come find me there later."

Doctor Liu clapped, and the soldiers surrounded Pei Shu’er.

"You can’t go anywhere now."

Pei Shu’er shrugged: "Alright, if this patient wakes up later, does that count as me curing him?"

Doctor Liu frowned, just about to deny it.

Pei Shu’er coldly laughed: "Doctor Liu, do you really think I don’t know? This person has been in a coma for many days. You should know his injury. If he wakes up later, it means my treatment was successful."

"Are you, a renowned military doctor, really not even willing to bet on this?"

As soon as she said that, Doctor Liu’s face turned ghastly. The others were about to rush up and scold Pei Shu’er, but she swept a cold gaze over them.

Those people were actually intimidated by Pei Shu’er’s look, and by the time they reacted, they felt embarrassed, but had also lost the best opportunity to question her.

Doctor Liu laughed coldly, full of sarcasm.

"Alright, as long as he wakes up later, and it’s not just a temporary recovery before death, then we’ll count it as your win."

"But aren’t you overestimating yourself a little? With injuries this serious, even I can’t do anything, let alone a little girl like you."

Pei Shu’er shrugged: "Doctor, you are mistaken. As they say, there’s always a bigger sky and someone more skillful, just because you can’t heal someone doesn’t mean I can’t."

This person was so annoying that Pei Shu’er didn’t mind giving him a good retort.

Doctor Liu sneered: "Don’t get too happy just yet, wait and see. Maybe in a little while, he’ll completely stop breathing, and then you won’t be able to escape the crime of murdering a military Commander."

Yinxing was anxious and grabbed Pei Shu’er.

She actually felt that Pei Shu’er’s method just now was strange, who cuts open intestines directly—wouldn’t that just make the injury worse?

Furthermore, it’s such a delicate area as the intestines; it might become more severe in the future.

No, he probably wouldn’t wake up.

The two government officers were also afraid of getting implicated, as this person was, after all, a small leader.

While everyone was anxiously waiting, a painful groan sounded.

The Commander opened his eyes.

Pei Shu’er looked at the Commander, whose eyes were full of confusion, and upon seeing so many people, he couldn’t help but ask.

"What’s going on?"

Having not spoken for a long time, his voice was hoarse and unpleasant.

After speaking, he felt the unbearable pain in his abdomen.

Others widened their eyes at the Commander, filled with shock.

It’s strange, a section of intestine was cut, how can he still be alive?

Doctor Liu couldn’t cure him, yet this little girl did, and in just half an hour.

In that time, Doctor Liu hadn’t even managed to heal one person, let alone such a severe wound.

The two government officers were also shocked; they had both thought Pei Shu’er was doomed, as the situation seemed hopeless for survival.

Unexpectedly, after she cut a section of intestine and stitched it up, he woke up?

Even the two men were shocked; how could this be, their master’s medical skills were so good, and he said it couldn’t be cured, yet he woke up?

Even if their master hadn’t said it, they had been practicing medicine long enough, they’d never seen such a serious wound with a chance for survival.

As for Doctor Liu, his expression was so gloomy it could drip water.

He’s been practicing medicine for over forty years and rarely misjudged.

Moreover, this person’s wound was indeed incurable, yet this meddlesome girl cured him.

Recalling the words he just uttered, he only felt his face sting.

Looking again at the bewildered Commander, he certainly didn’t know who saved him at that moment.

Thinking of this, Doctor Liu quickly asked, "Do you feel any discomfort?"

The Commander shook his head: "I feel more at ease than in previous days."

Of course, he felt better. Pei Shu’er used pain relief and Spiritual Spring Water on his wound; he would recover soon.

Among the soldiers, someone had tears in their eyes: "Commander Lu, are you really okay?"

The small leader nodded: "I thank everyone for their concern."

Then Lu Yuan saluted Doctor Liu: "Lu Yuan thanks the military doctor for the life-saving grace; if not for the doctor, I might already be dead."

Doctor Liu stroked his beard and smiled. The reason he had hurried to ask that question just now was to make Lu Yuan think it was him who saved him.

This was, after all, a Commander’s gratitude, and he couldn’t refuse it.

Pei Shu’er raised an eyebrow: "Lu Yuan?"

"Miss, what’s the matter?" Lu Yuan looked up, and Pei Shu’er noticed a trace of Lu Qing in his features, confirming his identity.

So, this is truly what Lu Yuan looks like.

Pei Shu’er shook her head, then looked at Doctor Liu.

"Doctor Liu, a bet is a bet."

Doctor Liu’s face was terribly grim; he then whispered a few words to a soldier, who then walked outside.

After a quarter of an hour, the soldier returned and handed a wooden plaque to Pei Shu’er.

It was a red-painted wooden plaque with the traditional characters for "Gulan" on it.

Pei Shu’er accepted it and then walked to the entrance of the tent, about to leave.

Suddenly, she turned back with a smile and spoke to Lu Yuan.

"I forgot to tell you, the person who saved you wasn’t Doctor Liu, it was me."

"What he did was nothing more than leaving you here in this military tent to fend for yourself."

After saying this, Pei Shu’er left.

Doctor Liu’s face was extremely unsightly.

If Lu Yuan had really died, it wouldn’t have mattered.

But Lu Yuan lived.

If Pei Shu’er hadn’t said those last words, Lu Yuan might have thought it was Doctor Liu who saved him and consequently felt grateful towards him.

This way, he would have gained a huge favor for nothing.

But that wretched girl actually said such things at the last moment.

Utterly disgraced him.

Since joining the army, it was the first time he suffered such a loss.

And it was at the hands of a girl much younger in front of so many people, so how could he be content?

In front of everyone, Doctor Liu shouted: "Stop."

Pei Shu’er paused, not turning back, just standing there waiting for Doctor Liu to approach.

Doctor Liu walked up to Pei Shu’er, his wrinkled face full of meanness and mockery.

"The young lady really has some means." Referring to her last move.

Pei Shu’er shrugged: "I never use tricks; I speak with strength."

Saying this, Pei Shu’er laughed, eyes full of sarcasm.

"Just to let Doctor Liu know what real medical skills and medical ethics are."

Doctor Liu angrily said: "How dare you! What do you mean?!"
