Chapter 360: Chapter 358: Flute Sound, Handsome Young Man_1
By the end of August, right before the start of the autumn semester, a message arrived at Medicine King Valley via carrier pigeon, stating that a patient with a difficult illness had come seeking treatment.

The Old Ancestor was traveling and couldn’t be reached, and the valley’s leader had no solutions. Therefore, he asked for help from the young Divine Doctor.

Concerned for the patient, Su Qingluo decided to go to Medicine King Valley and treat the patient herself.

Medicine King Valley was not far from Woniu Village; it was just 300 miles downstream along the Weishui River.

Traveling by boat was faster, and it only took a day and night to get there.

This was Su Qingluo’s first time traveling far from home since she started treating patients.

Her parents, Su Hu and his wife, were worried about their daughter and wanted to accompany her.

Upon hearing the news, Ye Xue’e was even more concerned and wanted to go with her.

Su Qingluo gently rejected her family’s goodwill, and took the Little Prince and her two disciples, quietly leaving Woniu Village.

They boarded a small black awning boat that could only accommodate four people and followed the current, heading downstream towards Medicine King Valley.

“Who thinks of whose brows and eyes, whose smile is like a blooming flower? Whose beauty causes turmoil in their family and country? Who promises a picturesque landscape of rivers and mountains for someone? Who abandons someone, fighting on the road of mortal life?”

Amidst the green mountains and blue waters, a cheerful and melodious song rang out. Su Qingluo sat at the stern, her delicate white feet submerged in the water, splashing about, and she sang crisply.

“Sister’s singing is so beautiful.”

Entranced by the music, the Little Prince also came to the stern with his baby leopard, sitting happily next to his sister.

Su Qingluo looked at him with doting eyes, her eyebrows dancing and her spirits high.

Suddenly, clear, bright flute music came from the grove on the riverbank. With perfect cadence and flawless harmony, it complemented the singing beautifully.

Su Qingluo’s eyes sparkled, and she looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a young man in brocade standing before a bamboo grove on the riverbank, hands raising a bamboo flute to his lips, blowing intently.

What a handsome and elegant young man.

At first glimpse, Su Qingluo took in the unsurpassed beauty of the young man and couldn’t help but secretly praise him.

The black awning boat continued downstream, gradually moving away from the bamboo grove. She gave a slight smile and continued to sing loudly.

“I make three armies march, brandishing their whips and urging their horses, countless miles to lay siege to the city, just to glimpse your smile as beautiful as a flower, just to admire your unparalleled elegance.”

“I leave behind prosperity and abandon the world, betray my people and my country, just to accompany you on your wandering journey, leisurely watching the falling flowers…”

Amidst the rugged mountains and untouched green landscape, the ethereal and enchanting singing carried on the wind, gradually fading away until it vanished entirely.

The young man lowered his bamboo flute, furrowed his brows as he gazed in the direction the boat had disappeared, standing still for a long time before finally looking away.

“Clap clap clap.”

From inside the carriage next to the bamboo grove came applause, and a young man in sumptuous clothes lifted the curtain and peered out, a playful smile playing on his face.

“Liuyun, it’s rare to see you in the mood to play a tune. Unfortunately, the young lady didn’t appreciate it and left without even saying hello.”

“Senior Brother, you jest. I just found her singing pleasing to the ear and felt inspired to play along. It’s not like I wanted to make her acquaintance.”

The young man in brocade looked away and walked out of the bamboo grove, returning to the carriage and climbing into the cabin.

“Why not rest for a while longer? Didn’t you say your legs were numb from sitting and you wanted to walk around?”

The well-dressed young man moved aside to give him a seat, leaning lazily against the window, supporting his chin with a teasing expression.

“No need. Woniu Village is not far ahead. Before we left, our revered teacher repeatedly reminded us to arrive before Madam Lin’s birthday celebration to present our gifts.”

The young man in brocade lifted his skirt and sat down, glancing indifferently at his companion. A faint blush appeared on his jade-like face.
