The first light of dawn came slowly, shining through the thin fog onto the already freezing ground. Not only was it not able to make people feel warmth, it instead gave them an even colder feeling. A carriage stopped at the lee of the wind. A long stalk of withered grass by the window swayed in the cold wind, and a few drops of blood fell to the ground from the leaves, falling onto the ground and disappearing into the cold and hard earth.

Liu He, Zhao Yun and Wei Dun were standing in front of the horse carriage. Liu He looked at the blood dripping from the dead grass, a trace of confusion in his eyes.

This was Luo Wang Po. Two hours ago, after Gongsun Xu had been reborn, the first large-scale battle that he had led had just ended. At this moment, the black and red blood stains had already started to coagulate on the ground. With a step, a creaking sound could be heard. There were dead bodies, broken limbs, and all sorts of broken weapons everywhere.

Wang Wei stood on top of the hill in front of the carriage, cursing loudly from time to time, commanding the thousands of auxiliary force s to bury the corpses. From the corpse's appearance, the Xianbei People was obviously more than the Chinese.

Yang Hong brought a large group of people to clear the battlefield, taking back everything that was useful: weapons, armors, horses of war, gold, silver, copper, blades, swords, etc …

Huala! The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a cloth-clothed old man carrying a medical case jumped down from the carriage. His expression was grave.

"How is it?" Zhao Yun, Liu He and Wei Dun asked at the same time.

The old man's first sentence made Zhao Yun and the other two happy beyond their expectations, but the following words caused their hearts to sink to the bottom, "It's just that the young duke lost too much blood and has a fever, if we do not cure him in time, I'm afraid his life will be in danger."

Wei Dun grabbed the old man, and shouted: "You are the best doctor in Changli County, could it be that you will slack in your treatment? "If you can't cure the young duke, I will behead you for your crimes!"

The old man was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed again and again, begging for mercy. It's not that I don't treat you with care, I'm really powerless! This lowly one has already tidied up the young duke's wounds, but I really have no confidence in using the medicine! [If I use it in a hurry, I'm afraid it will!]

Liu He said angrily, "Since you're such a quack doctor, what's the use of keeping you here? Come on, let's pull him down and kill him! "

Immediately, two soldiers rushed forward, one leading the old man to the side.

The doctors in the Han Dynasty were known as' Fang Techniques', and in the eyes of the people, they were just a lowly profession. In fact, it was even comparable to 'You You You'. Zhang Zhongjing, another famous doctor of the same era, was known as the Medical Saint by his descendants as the Medical Saint. However, that was because he had once been a Changsha prefecture chief, and was a member of the official class, not because he was a famous doctor. This is gossip, let's not talk about it for now.

To Liu He, killing a reputable physician was no different than killing a servant.

"Young master, spare me!" Please spare my life! " The old man stomped his feet hard on the ground, wailing and begging for mercy.

"What should I do?" Liu He ignored the begging sound and asked Zhao Yun with a gloomy face.

Zhao Yun sighed, "Now we can only send the young duke back to the Ji County. We'll have to ask the duke for a famous doctor!"

"This is the only way!" Liu He sighed heavily, his heart was at a loss, if Gongsun Xu died, the relationship between his father and Gongsun Zan would definitely break down once again! The situation which had just stabilized the Youzhou would once again go out of control!

When the old man heard Zhao Yun say the four words' famed doctor, 'he suddenly turned his head with all his might and shouted: "Young Master! Young master! This little one has something to say! This lowly one has something to say! "

"Speak!"

"Half a month ago, a renowned physician passed by the Changli. This lowly one had the privilege of meeting him once. He said that he would stay in Xiangping for a period of time, then head to the Old Forest of Liaodong to search for rare medicinal herbs. If they could find this person, then the young duke would be in great danger! "

"Who is it?" Liu He asked hurriedly.

"That man's surname is Hua, his character is elementalist, and his medical skills are superb. Rumor has it that he can even kill people and turn them into nothing!"

"It's actually Hua Tuo Huayuan! I have also heard of this name for a long time! " When Liu He heard this, he was overjoyed. He immediately shouted, "Back then, Chen Yuanlong had a strange illness. If they found this person, the young duke would be safe and sound! "

A few years ago, when Chen Deng was a prefecture chief of Grand Dominance City, he suddenly felt his face red and his heart palpitated, making it hard for him to sleep. Hua Tuo asked Chen Deng to prepare a large basin, and with the combined effect of acupuncture and medicine, Chen Deng successfully spat out several hundred little red worms, and his condition quickly recovered. Chen Deng was extremely grateful to Hua Tuo, and had repeatedly praised Hua Tuo's brilliant medical skills. He was a member of a wealthy family and had quite a good relationship with him, so news of this matter spread very quickly.

Liu He looked at Wei Dun and anxiously said: "You must quickly dispatch our capable men to Xiangping and request for Hua Tuo to come to Changli. I will escort the young duke back to Changli first!"

"I'll go!" Without waiting for Wei Dun's reply, Zhao Yun turned and ran back to the war horse.

"Please wait, Academy Officer Zi Long!" Liu He shouted.

Zhao Yun turned his head and asked: "What instructions do you have for me?"

"Gongsun Du is temperamental, so Academy Officer must never forget to clash with him."

"Thank you Young Master Liu for your reminder, Yun Che will definitely bring Hua Tuo to Changli!" After Zhao Yun finished speaking, he mounted his horse and rushed to the official road.

Gongsun Jia and Gongsun Yi who were standing a distance away saw Zhao Yun leaving, and immediately went to the side of the carriage to take his place. Liu He glanced at them and frowned, but didn't say anything.

Wei Dun looked at Zhao Yun's back and softly said: "This person is unparalleled brave and loyal, I really wonder where the young duke found him!"

Liu He was also extremely curious. He had never heard of Zhao Yun's name before, so why did he suddenly become so famous? He ordered his men to release the doctor, and asked him to pay attention to Gongsun Xu's injuries, and casually asked the Gongsun Jia brothers: Do the two of you know where Zhao Yun is?

"Lieutenant Zhao was originally a military lord," Gongsun Yi explained slowly, and only heard that Wei Dun and Liu He were surprised.

Xiangping County (Liaoyang) was currently the base of Liaodong, Gongsun Du, and also the base for her administration. Xiangping County City was currently located seven to eight kilometers eastwards away from Lianyang City, and was closer to Beiping County. Gongsun Du had long ago been highly regarded by Dong Zhuo and had appointed him as the prefecture chief. Not long after, Dong Zhuo was in the center of this chaos, with the dukes of various lands taking advantage of this opportunity to establish himself as a Marquis of Liaodong. He attacked Wu Huan, went to the east to attack the Korea, and occupied the south side of the Liaodong Peninsula. He was the one who recruited the best, was aggressive, and also accepted a large number of refugees to settle down. As such, his prestige in the Liaodong was extremely high.

Gongsun Zan and Gongsun Du were not from the same clan, but because they both had the surname of Gongsun and were both powerful dukes, the Youzhou Army and the Liaodong Army had attacked Wu Huan together before. Today, the two sides used the Beiping County region as the dividing line. They didn't want to get involved in a conflict, so for the past few years, there hadn't been any major conflicts between them.

Falling King Slope was located between Changli County and Xiangping County. Going to Xiangping was about three hundred miles, Zhao Yun was burning with anxiety. Fortunately, he was riding a good horse that Gongsun Xu had gifted him a few days ago. His stamina and stamina were both very good, and after a few short breaks, he was already within the borders of the Xiangping Region after more than six hours. Zhao Yun continued to advance eastwards for another few kilometers. The Xiangping County City was already in sight, but at this moment, a group of riders under Gongsun Du's command appeared in front of him, blocking his way. The leader was a handsome young man as he cautiously asked for Zhao Yun's name and purpose of coming here.

Zhao Yun lied without even blinking: "I am General Zhao Yun, a subordinate of the Ji Dynasty. Yesterday, at dusk, General Gongsun Fan was on his way to Changli County City when he was ambushed by Wu Huan, and my injuries were quite serious. I heard that the genius doctor Hua Tuo is currently in Xiangping County, so I requested General Gongsun Fan to treat me."

"The son of a bitch Wu Huan is really bold!" Then, he slapped his forehead and shouted: "Zhao Jun and the rest came a little too late. Godly Doctor Hua has indeed been treating people in Xiangping City these few days, but he left early today, and had said that he was going to the forest deep in the mountains to look for precious herbs."

"Gone?" Zhao Yun was shocked, he anxiously asked: "Brother, may I ask, where did Godly Doctor Hua go?"

"Who knows?" The youth headmaster turned around and asked his subordinates.

Someone answered: "This little one passed by the west side of the city in the morning and saw the Godly Doctor Hua leaving the city."

"Thank you!" Zhao Yun cupped his fists in thanks, and asked: "May I know this brother's name? I will definitely return the favor in the future. "

"I am Sun Kang, and there is no need for me to return the favor."

Thank you, Brother Sun. General Gongsun's injuries are urgent, I still have to find you, so I will take my leave now. Zhao Yun spoke a few words then turned and prepared to leave.

"Hold on!" Sun Kang spoke out to stop them.

"Brother Sun, you still have matters to attend to?" Zhao Yun asked with a smile, thinking of Liu He's reminder, he became wary.

Sun Kang said sincerely: "I see that Brother Zhao's war horse is already exhausted. Even if we find the Godly Doctor Hua, how do we go back? I offer you two good horses, please accept them! " Saying that, he pointed to two people, asking them to give the warhorse to Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun did not delay any further, and immediately bowed and cupped his fists: "Thank you, Brother Sun! The day will come when I will return it many times! "

Sun Kang cupped his fists and replied, laughing out loud: Haha, brother Zhao is too serious! I wish Brother Zhao a pleasant journey! The two of you tie up your horses for Brother Zhao. "

The two unwillingly jumped down from the horses and tied the reins to Zhao Yun's horse.

"See you later!" Zhao Yun cupped his hands, and one man and three horses ran towards the northwest.

Sun Kang looked at Zhao Yun's disappearing figure, his eyes looking deep in thought.

The man who delivered the horse asked, "Why do you want to hide your name, Eldest Young Master? Why do you care so much about a mere marshal? "

"Ah, Great Tiger, you've misjudged us! This person was skilled in riding and had an extraordinary bearing. His war horse and weapon were all of the highest quality. He definitely wasn't some small marshal! "If we help him now, we will definitely repay him handsomely in the future!" The young headmaster seriously explained a few sentences, then laughed and said: "As for why he hid his name, hehe, since he lied first, then this young master will definitely deceive him. Otherwise, wouldn't he suffer a loss?"

"Eldest Young Master is wise."

The young headmaster pointed at the man and chuckled, "You said that I was wise, but in your heart, you are complaining that you gave your horse to an outsider who doesn't know the details, right? "There is no need to explain. You will think so!"

The man scratched his head in embarrassment.

"You have no future!" Sun Kang laughed and scolded, and promised: "When we go back, I will give each of you a good horse."

"Thank you, young master!"

"Da Hu, Er Hu, the two of you go back and change into your outfits. Disguise as refugees and head to Changli to see what exactly is happening there!" After Sun Kang finished instructing, he watched Zhao Yun's back figure disappear into the distance and frowned in thought.
