Chapter 349: Very Rich Lifestyle
There was no sense of time in the mountains. Ning Shu didn’t know how long she had been here, but her days were very rich. She spent her days dealing with plants.
Later, the G.o.dly doctor gave Ning Shu some more books that only contained very simple ways to treat illnesses, but Ning Shu was still very happy. Everything had to be learned from the bottom up. At the very least, now she knew what herbs could be used to stop bleeding and prevent inflammation.
Ning Shu felt very satisfied.
If the villager that came to ask for treatment had only a simple injury such as a sc.r.a.pe, the G.o.dly doctor would have Ning Shu treat them. If it was something that required drinking medicine, it naturally didn’t go to Ning Shu since she still didn’t know how to make medicine yet.
Ning Shu just watched from the side as the G.o.dly doctor treated the patients. Although he was very cold, he was still quite serious when working.
She felt that her relationship with the G.o.dly doctor had gotten better. The most visible evidence was that the G.o.dly doctor no longer had her eat those hard cornbread anymore. Instead, he now fed her cornbread made with coa.r.s.e grain and flour.
Even though it was just as hard to eat.
The G.o.dly doctor sat opposite her, then place his hand in front of her and said coldly, “You should start learning how to read pulses. Try reading my pulse.”
Ning Shu swallowed nervously. In all honesty, she was a little scared of the medical field since it made her reflexively recall the twisted school doctor uncle.
Her hand trembled a little as she pressed down on the G.o.dly doctor’s wrist. Her face filled with shock. “Master, you don’t have a pulse?”
“Your fingers are on the wrong spot,” said the G.o.dly doctor icily.
Ning Shu: …
Ning Shu pressed down on the G.o.dly doctor’s pulse. Normal pulses were usually rhythmic and strong, but the G.o.dly doctor’s pulse was completely chaotic. Ning Shu couldn’t help but wonder if she had made a mistake again. How could a normal person’s pulse be like this?
She smiled awkwardly towards the G.o.dly doctor, then felt for his pulse again. After numerous second checks, the result was still the same. The G.o.dly doctor master definitely had a heart defect.
“It’s been almost an hour, what verdict have you reached?” The G.o.dly doctor asked coldly.
Ning Shu retrieved her hand and said, “This disciple is just stepping into this field and is too inexperienced to reach a verdict.”
The G.o.dly doctor’s eyes filled with disdain as he said coldly, “You weren’t able to tell even with how clear this was? Even with how clear this pulse condition was, you still weren’t able to figure it out? As expected, you’re not suited to learning medicine.”
“My condition called arrhythmia, it’s when the heart does not beat properly. It was such a clear pulse, how in the world did you miss it?” The G.o.dly doctor’s gaze contained disappointment.
Ning Shu: …
She really didn’t know that he had a heart defect. “This is innate?”
The G.o.dly doctor glanced at her. “This type of illness is usually present since birth.”
Ning Shu didn’t know what to say to console him. This type of illness couldn’t be cured. Even in the modern society with the advanced technology, no cure has yet been found. The only method was to have a heart transplant.
She finally understood why the G.o.dly doctor didn’t seem to have any feelings. Being emotional was taboo for people with this sort of illness.
It was understandable why the G.o.dly doctor wasn’t interested in s.e.x. Although others called him a G.o.dly doctor, he wasn’t able to cure his own illness. He was practically on the other end of the spectrum compared to the other wolf-like male leads.
This kind of intense activity wasn’t good for the body. If he ended up a little over-excited, he might have a heart attack and die right on top of Mu Yanmeng.
However, since he did enter Mu Yanmeng’s harem in the end, he probably did have feelings for Mu Yanmeng.
