"Yes!"
The duty of a soldier is to obey orders.
Standing outside the door, Nanqiu responded and followed Lin Tian inside, conveniently closing the door behind.
Lin Tian walked to the bedside, glanced at Jin Guard's complexion, which indeed was much better than a couple of days ago. Even the oxygen mask he had been wearing was taken off.
In just under a week, such a recovery speed can indeed be called a miracle, even the accompanying doctors couldn't understand why.
Of course, they also studied the prescriptions and dicinal baths Lin Tian prepared for Jin Guard and found no extraordinary effects other than one or two clever elents.
dicine, though complex, at its core involves finding the root cause of illness and then addressing it accordingly.
When Lin Tian's acupuncture, prescriptions, and dicinal baths were used together, they maximized the use of the spiritual qi within Jin Guard's body to expel all impurities, while also promoting blood circulation and strengthening the body.
This isn't just boasting; the living example is right in front of you. Lin Tian believed that if it weren't for him, Jin Guard would have had an eighty percent chance of not making it.
"Haha, Jin Guard, upon waking up, do you feel any discomfort in your body?" Lin Tian asked with a smile.
Jin Guard looked at Lin Tian, then at Nanqiu, with a puzzled expression, clearly not understanding the Celestial Dragon Continent language.
Nanqiu translated Lin Tian's words, and after Jin Guard finished speaking, Nanqiu translated in awkward Celestial Dragon Continent language: "The guard said this journey to the Celestial Dragon Continent was a wondrous one. I didn't expect to feel even better than before after such a severe illness. Many of the lingering aftereffects have significantly eased."
Lin Tian smiled faintly. Of course, they'd be reduced. Not to ntion anything else, just the three bullets lodged in crucial areas were his biggest threat. Surviving was already a miracle.
The bullets in his body were all removed, and the toxins were forced out. After nearly a week of dicinal baths, he now appeared so vigorous.
Lin Tian said, "I've anticipated the comfort you're feeling. What I want to know is if there's anywhere you still feel unwell."
Lin Tian tried to speak as plainly as possible to ensure the awkward translator wouldn't get it wrong.
Nanqiu glanced at Lin Tian. A few days ago, he would have thought this guy was bragging, but the more he interacted with him, the more he felt he couldn't see through this person.
Listening to Nanqiu's translation, Jin Guard laughed heartily and said, "You've anticipated it? You truly are a confident Celestial Dragon Continent person. Good, good!"
As he said this, the joy on Jin Guard's face gradually faded, and he looked at his legs under the blanket, saying, "Speaking of discomfort, my biggest discomfort is my legs. The bones aren't broken, yet I've been told they're paralyzed. I also heard about what happened during your treatnt. I know you're a miracle doctor, and I'd like you to confirm once more if there's any hope for my legs."
Lin Tian shook his head without thinking, "No. When I took your pulse last ti, I already said that the peripheral nervous system is damaged, and the best ti for redy has been missed."
Lin Tian is human, not a god. It's impossible for him to overco every ailnt. Regarding paralysis, he might use spiritual qi to temporarily restore the patient, but once the qi is exhausted, it would revert back.
"Is there really no way at all? Don't you have a saying about regrowing flesh and bones?" Jin Guard asked, still not giving up.
Lin Tian chuckled and replied, "It's said to resurrect flesh and bones. That's also a legendary tale. If there really were a way to resurrect flesh and bones, traditional dicine would not have been suppressed by Western dicine to this extent."
"Then... is there truly no way?" Before Jin Guard could speak, Nanqiu eagerly asked, "A coach of mine said that the Celestial Dragon Continent has had dragon veins since ancient tis. I don't know what dragon veins are, but your martial arts are impressive. I've heard it can cure all kinds of illnesses. Can't it work for the guard's condition?"
This incoherent statent, Lin Tian still understood. He said, "Practicing martial arts isn't as simple as you think. Not to ntion the basics like harmony of waist and horse, even the most fundantal skills are beyond Jin Guard's capability. Trying to regain dead ridians through martial arts is essentially a dead end. I advise considering Jin Guard's current physical state, not to attempt risky treatnts lightly, as the cost is too high."
Lin Tian didn't continue, but both understood what cost he ant.
Seeing Nanqiu's dejected look, Jin Guard suddenly coughed gently, full of vigor, and said, "Actually, I prepared myself a long ti ago. Now hearing Doctor Lin say this makes feel more at ease."
While talking, Jin Guard suddenly laughed, "In the future, I won't even need to walk myself. Soone pushing around will make my retirent quite leisurely."
Brows softly curved, corners of the mouth slightly lifted, his warm smile was not at all reminiscent of a seasoned warrior.
In his carefree laughter, there was also a sense of relief. After laughing, his eyes filled with tears.
"Soldiers bleed but don't cry." This saying applies globally.
Throughout his life, Jin Guard could count the number of tis he cried on one hand. For comrades, for parents, for the country, yet this ti it was for himself. Finally, he had completed the mission of a Jin family man—defending the nation! Bleeding and sacrificing!
When the blazing hot tears rolled down his face, Jin Guard didn't feel embarrassed. He wiped away the tears with his calloused hand and said, "Nanqiu, I'm planning not to return to Xiaocheng. Instead, I'll buy a house in Lugano, Jinzhou, and enjoy a quiet retirent there."
Nanqiu was slightly taken aback, then with a very shocked expression, asked, "What? You're not returning to the country?"
Standing to the side, Lin Tian couldn't understand their conversation but knew sothing significant was going on seeing Nanqiu's expression.
As a subordinate, she should directly obey orders, so why show such an expression and question?
Jin Guard gently nodded, "Yes, if I return, who knows how many will die again. That treacherous life is not for ."
"But... if you don't return, many will still die. Moreover, I'm afraid..."
Where there are people, there are disputes, and Xiaocheng is no exception.
The Jin family in Xiaocheng long ceased to be a simple military family engaged in warfare. Over nearly a century, the Jin family grew and expanded into diverse fields.
As the saying goes, 'The tall tree catches the wind.' With Jin family's stature, many naturally set their sights on them. In no uncertain terms, Jin Guard's personal security detail numbered thirty, fifteen for day and night shifts each.
Because if Jin Guard died, the Jin family would be in disarray.
