A four-year-old medical prodigy descended to the mortal realm, and the entire capital sought her tre

Zhao Jinzhong showed neither elation nor tears of excitement.

He calmly felt the changes in his body, his heart filled with tenderness and warmth.

A surge of renewed energy and vitality ignited within him.

He told himself that he must live well, protect his sister, protect his mother, and protect more people!

At this moment, Zhou Ruo quietly walked up to him and tugged at his sleeve.

Zhao Jinzhong leaned down and heard Zhou Ruo whisper in his ear:

"Brother, when you get better, will you take me out to play?"

"No problem!" Zhao Jinzhong replied with a bright smile to Zhou Ruo, saying he was willing to go through fire and water.

Although Zhou Ruo was playful, she dared not forget that she still had a mission to complete.

A year is neither a long nor a short time.

Restoring one's spiritual power to its full potential is no easy feat.

Currently, she hasn't figured out how to proceed further.

All she could think of was to go out and find the source of the disease.

She considered everyone in the general's mansion, but in the end, she still felt that going out with Zhao Jinzhong was the best option.

There are three reasons. First, among all the people in the General's Mansion, the two of them are the closest in age and get along well.

Secondly, Zhao Jinzhong trusted her and treated her well; he would grant many of her requests.

Thirdly, Zhao Jinzhong was cured by her, and having him by her side makes her words even more convincing.

That's all she could think of in her little head, but she felt the reasons were sufficient.

The next day, Zhou Ruo gave Zhao Jinzhong another acupuncture treatment.

This time, she saw Zhao Jinzhong's face glow red, and the aura around him changed from jet black to white.

"Yes! Brother is all better now! All better!" Zhou Ruo sat on the edge of the bed, clapping her little hands and swinging her legs happily.

Yesterday at noon, after Zhao Jinzhong received acupuncture at Lanxiangyuan, he was able to jump half a meter high on the spot.

After leaving, he walked around the general's mansion, and his legs had basically gotten used to it.

The news that Zhao Jinzhong could walk and jump spread throughout the capital overnight.

Everyone in the city knew that the young general of the Grand General's Mansion, who had been paralyzed for two years, had suddenly recovered.

The people all sighed with admiration, saying that there was a good doctor in the general's mansion, but they didn't know who he was.

Just as Zhou Ruo was removing the last needle from Zhao Jinzhong at Wude Courtyard, a servant brought out lunch.

Seeing that the situation was not good, she quickly put the silver needles into her bosom and said as she walked out:

"Brother, I'm going now!"

Before Zhao Jinzhong could reply, she dashed out and disappeared.

Zhao Jinzhong glanced at the food on the table and guessed that Zhou Ruo probably still didn't like to eat these things.

Although he was worried, he wouldn't force Zhou Ruo to do things she didn't like.

After escaping from Wude Academy, Zhou Ruo went straight to the backyard.

Yesterday, she was forced to eat meat, vegetables, and fruit for both meals, which she found very unpleasant and disliked.

Moreover, she discovered that she preferred rice and vegetables to meat.

She really couldn't stand the taste of meat.

Ever since that day when she went to the backyard to look for the Hundred-Year-Old Toad, Zhou Ruo has been unable to forget the orchard in the backyard.

Having had an unpleasant meal yesterday, she now longs to quietly enjoy a simple fruit feast.

Stepping into the backyard, Zhou Ruo darted and jumped around in the orchard like a carefree rabbit.

They picked pears to eat, peeled bananas, and ate oranges... They were having a great time!

In less than a quarter of an hour, Zhou Ruo's belly swelled up.

Looking at the dazzling array of fruits in the forest, Zhou Ruo was very distressed.

She wanted to eat so much, but her stomach was too full.

She wandered around the orchard again and saw a patch of low bushes on the side.

It was covered with countless tiny fruits, some red and some black.

"Huh? What kind of fruits are these?" Zhou Ruo's eyes lit up, and a trace of drool hung from the corner of her mouth.

Even though I was already full, I couldn't resist reaching out and picking one to put in my mouth.

"Mmm! It's so delicious!"

Zhou Ruo went further in and picked the dark black fruits to eat; they tasted even sweeter.

Because she was too small, she fell into the bushes when she reached out to grab something.

She simply sat down in the bushes and started eating.

Taking advantage of the opportune moment and location, Zhou Ruo could easily reach out and grab a handful of fruit, then stuff it directly into her mouth.

Her mouth was stuffed full, and juice splashed onto her lips, which she wiped with her sleeve.

He got juice all over his hands and then wiped it on his body.

In no time at all, it was on his mouth, face, sleeves, clothes...

Patches of red and purple, her whole body looked like she'd been immersed in a dye vat.

But Zhou Ruo didn't care at all, freely and happily enjoying the delicious "feast".

Just as Zhou Ruo was enjoying her meal, a scream came from the edge of the woods.

Then Zhou Ruo heard curses: "Damn it, why is this mousetrap placed here? Ouch, my foot!"

Upon hearing that someone was injured, Zhou Ruo disregarded her food and struggled to emerge from the bushes, walking to the side.

From afar, she saw a woman sitting on the ground, her hands supporting her calves, talking incessantly, looking like she was in pain.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the housekeeper's wife, whom everyone called Seventh Aunt. Zhou Ruo recognized her.

Aunt Qi isn't a bad person, she just likes to take advantage of small things.

"Seventh Aunt, Seventh Aunt, what's wrong?" Zhou Ruo ran over.

"Miss?" Aunt Qi was overjoyed. She was troubled and didn't know what to do.

She is mainly responsible for looking after the orchard on weekdays, and there aren't many people here unless it's a servant changing shifts.

If she hadn't met Zhou Ruo at that moment, she didn't know when anyone would have come.

When Zhou Ruo got closer, she saw that Aunt Qi's right leg was caught in a rat trap, and blood was seeping out continuously, with the trap covered in blood.

Zhou Ruo instinctively tried to pry open the mousetrap, but she was too weak and couldn't open it at all.

At the same time, Aunt Qi was also frightened and shouted, "Miss, no, no! You can't break this thing."

Large beads of sweat dripped from Aunt Qi's forehead as the mousetrap pierced her flesh, causing excruciating pain.

"Miss, go call someone, go call someone for me." Aunt Qi said, her breath coming in gasps, trying to suppress the pain.

Zhou Ruo stared at the blood gushing from Aunt Qi's feet. "Aunt Qi, this blood can't flow for too long, or she'll turn into a dried-up corpse!"

Aunt Qi watched as Zhou Ruo pointed to her wound and spoke in a serious tone, but she remained motionless.

Of course she knew that the bleeding couldn't last too long!

"So, Miss, please hurry and call someone for me, okay?" Aunt Qi was extremely anxious.

"Seventh Aunt, close your eyes," Zhou Ruo said.

"What...what are you doing?" Aunt Qi was in too much pain to think, and although she was confused, she obeyed the instructions.

Just as Aunt Qi closed her eyes, Zhou Ruo waved her hand over the wound, and the bleeding stopped.

"Hmm? Why is there dark energy on Aunt Qi's wound? Is this clamp poisonous?" Zhou Ru muttered softly.

Aunt Qi didn't know what Zhou Ruo was planning to do. When she opened her eyes, she saw Zhou Ruo talking incoherently.

She thought Zhou Ruo was just teasing her, and although she was angry, she didn't dare to get mad at him.
