Chapter 33: An idiot without a past

“Really?” Hu Feng laughed. This little girl was really stubborn. She just came in this Luoying Mountain, so there were still a lot of ‘surprises’ waiting for her.

The two of them continued to walk. Apart from a very few ordinary herbs along the way, there was nothing to gain. Bai Zhi began to feel a little depressed. Her interest was not as high as earlier.

“What? Are you disappointed?” Hu Feng, who was holding a sharp wooden stick in his hand said while watching the surrounding with vigilance. No matter how many times he came on this mountain, he never dared to lower his guard. There was no fixed atmosphere in an old forest. The beast doesn’t come out during the daytime, but it doesn’t mean it will never come out.

The trees in the old forest were very thick. The branches and leaves were more lavish than the ordinary trees. The old forest looked gloomy and cold, but the warm sunlight could still penetrate, so the old gloomy forest still has some warmth and light.

In the 23rd century, Bai Zhi has her own greenhouse, which she used to specifically plant rare herbs, that were on the verge of extinction. She knew only sunny places could cultivate the finest herb.

So whenever Bai Zhi sees a large array of sunlight in between the leaves, she will rush towards it and look. She also found some herbs under the trees, but they were mostly herbs for treating trauma. Although their quality was good, they were not the things she wanted. Those herbs were very common. Even if she took a basket of it, she can only sell it for a few coins. 

“These are not herbs?” Hu Feng couldn’t help but asked when he saw her excited and disappointed look.

Bai Zhi shook her head, then said: “It’s a herbal medicine, but it’s not what I’m looking for. It’s too ordinary. Its only worth a few copper coins.”

Hu Feng raised an eyebrow: “So, you know many kinds of herbs?”

Bai Zhi looked at Hu Feng, his face under the sunlight and shadow of the leaves was a bit blurred. Only his eyes looked clear and bright: “You don’t believe me?”

Hu Feng didn’t say anything.

Ba Zhi shrugged her shoulders: “Whether you believe me or not, it doesn’t matter. But, why do you want me to cure you?”

Hu Feng turned his head and looked into a far distance. His eyes gradually became confused: “Because I have no choice.”

He doesn’t know who he was. What was his name? Why did he lose his memories? He became an idiot without a past.  He wanted to retrieve those memories and become a normal person. Just like everyone else.

Ordinary doctors have no ability to cure his illness, while he had no money to ask a famous doctor for a cure. It has already been three years since then.

Yesterday, when he saw Bai Zhi’s special method of treatment that saved Yingzi, who had already died. The fire of hope that almost disappeared in his heart quietly ignited.

When Bai Zhi thinks about her past, she remembered the despair and pain she experienced when she was abandoned by her biological parents. If she can, she would rather forget those kinds of memories. She had hoped many times for those memories to be erased from her mind. Remembering them only give her heartache.

“Sometimes, losing some memories are not necessarily a bad thing. And finding back those memories are not necessarily a good thing.” Bai Zhi smiled bitterly. Her heart was a bit in pain. No matter how long she tried to hide those memories in the darkness, it still appeared in front of her eyes from time to time. 

She desperate study hard, which resulted in her becoming the top one. The first in the capital, nor in the country.

She was also the first doctor who had doctoral degree in both Chinese and Western medicine at the age of 21. And at the age of 23, she did not only became the youngest doctor in Mingxing Hospital, but also the most skilled medical practitioner.
