When the plague is rampant, those infected will suffer from headaches, itchy skin, vomit blood, and their bodies will rot, and they will die in a very miserable manner.

At that time, the people of Western Chu were living in hell on earth.

Bodies of people who died of illness can be seen everywhere.

Fortunately, Lingzhi worked together with doctors from other countries to solve the plague.

The plague then spread only to the edges of national borders.

No particularly large losses were caused to any country.

At that time, all countries were worried that there were still plague patients left in Western Chu.

Therefore, they did not take advantage of the fact that Western Chu was severely weakened by the plague to besiege and divide the territory of Western Chu.

This gave the Queen Mother of Western Chu ample time to cultivate a puppet emperor...

Because the plague caused huge casualties, many doctors sent from other countries to help died from the plague.

This plague was eventually recorded in history books by various countries as a lesson and a warning.

……

After seeing this, Lingzhi felt a little embarrassed.

"No...you're welcome."

"I was just doing my job as a doctor."

“Doctors from other countries also helped me a lot.”

“They are the real heroes.”

"If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been able to resolve the plague so quickly."

Bai Qiuyuan stood up and said with a smile.

"Senior is humble."

“Everyone understands that the predecessors made the greatest contribution to that plague.”

"Otherwise, people wouldn't call you the Medical Immortal."

Lingzhi smiled bitterly after hearing this.

After a brief conversation with Bai Qiuyuan.

Lingzhi discovered that Bai Qiuyuan was much more sensible, mature and steady than she had imagined.

Lingzhi: [It seems that the rumors about Baidi are all true...]

[It's hard to imagine that a child under ten years old could unify the six kingdoms with his own strength...]

At this moment, Bai Qiuyuan noticed something abnormal in Lingzhi's body.

Bai Qiuyuan: "..."

"Senior...your body..."

Lingzhi: “?”

"!"

Lingzhi was briefly flustered for a second, then quickly smiled.

"My body? My body is fine~"

Bai Qiuyuan: "..."

[The wound on Senior's body seems to be... an old one?]

【Something's wrong...】

[With the ability of the Medical Immortal, if he could have cured it, it would not have dragged on until now.]

Snapped!

After Bai Qiuyuan snapped his fingers, the Ganoderma lucidum was frozen in place!

Lingzhi: “?!”

[Can't move?!]

[Is this... acupuncture from a distance? ?]

[Wait, Zhu Qian hasn't said a word from now until now, and has just sat motionless at the table.]

[Could it be that he was also acupunctured? ]

When everyone saw Lingzhi stop moving, they all realized something was wrong and understood that Lingzhi was immobilized by Bai Qiuyuan's acupuncture points.

【Weren’t we just chatting happily? 】

[Why does Baidi look so serious, like he's about to kill someone?]

Bai Qiuyuan stepped forward, made a sword-pointing gesture with his hand, and placed it on Lingzhi's wrist.

A stream of true energy began to examine Lingzhi's body.

Lingzhi: “!?”

【Oops! 】

[I've never heard that Baidi knows medicine!?]

When Zhu Qian saw Bai Qiuyuan holding his wife's hand, he was immediately furious.

But before Zhu Qian had time to get angry, he saw Bai Qiuyuan frowning.

"You only have seven days to live?"

Zhu Qian was stunned after hearing this.

Lingzhi: “…”

Everyone: "?!"

After Zhu Qian calmed down, he looked at Bai Qiuyuan and asked.

"What do you mean by that?..."

Bai Qiuyuan: "..."

"The aftereffects of the plague and organ damage from overwork in the elder's early years have never been completely cured in over twenty years."

"These diseases have worsened over the past 20 years and have reached a point where they are beyond redemption."

"The reason why you are still alive is entirely due to your own attainments in herbal medicine. You are relying on herbs to keep yourself alive."

"Senior shouldn't have been seriously injured in the past twenty years."

"After all, if Senior is seriously injured in this state, even just once, he will surely die."

"You do not know?"

After hearing this, Zhu Qian fell silent.

In the past, Lingzhi often made medicine for himself, but Lingzhi said that those medicines were all "tonics".

In addition, Lingzhi's health did improve, so Zhu Qian just thought it was a minor problem and didn't pay much attention to it.

Xia Yudie asked doubtfully.

"What's the matter with only being able to live for seven days?"

[When this Immortal Doctor first opened the door, he clearly didn't look like he was dying...]

Bai Qiuyuan explained.

"Although the senior has survived until now by relying on herbs, twenty years seems to be the limit."

"After another seven days, the herbs from the mortal realm will no longer be of any use to you, Senior."

Snapped!

Bai Qiuyuan snapped his fingers and broke free.

Bai Qiuyuan: "..."

[Although I copied the original's Stasis skill, it seems that using Stasis consumes a lot of energy...]

After Lingzhi regained his mobility, he stood there silently.

Then, Lingzhi smiled bitterly.

"I have been hiding it very well. No one, no doctor should have noticed it."

"I didn't expect that His Majesty would expose me today..."

"I think Your Majesty is quite accomplished in medicine."

At the side, Zhu Qian, who was also freed from his restraints, stood up sluggishly and walked towards Lingzhi.

Zhu Qian asked as he walked.

"Is what he said... true?"

Lingzhi: “…”

Lingzhi was silent for a while and then smiled.

"I wanted to take this matter to my grave."

Zhu Qian came to Lingzhi and held Lingzhi's face with trembling hands.

Zhu Qian: “…”

"Why……"

"Why didn't you tell me..."

Lingzhi looked at Zhu Qian, whose eyes were red, and smiled.

"You're not a doctor, what's the point of me telling you?"

"I just didn't want to see your expression right now, so I didn't say anything."

Lingzhi smiled very naturally, as if it was someone else who was going to die in seven days, not herself.

Zhu Qian: “…”

Zhu Qian didn't reply.

Instead, he quietly held Lingzhi in his arms.

The moment he hugged Lingzhi, Zhu Qian couldn't stop crying...

Zhu Qian: "If it weren't for you..."

"Even if I obtain the throne, what's the point..."

Lingzhi was stunned after hearing this.

After all, as her husband's bedmate, she knows best how obsessed he is with the throne.

At this moment, Zhu Qian regarded himself as more important than the throne.

Lingzhi felt that he had no regrets in dying.

Lingzhi smiled and hugged Zhu Qian to comfort him.

"Just hearing your words makes me very happy."

Xia Yudie: “…”

[No wonder the Medical Immortal was so furious when he first came in.]

[It’s the last Mid-Autumn Festival of my life, and my husband isn’t here to accompany me. He’s even suspected of going out to meet someone secretly…]

[If it were me, I would also be angry and irritated...]

Bai Qiuyuan interrupted after taking out a string of candied haws and taking a bite.

"I know you're sad."

"But don't cry yet."

"Can you please listen to what I have to say first?"
