Chapter 0001: It’s Time To Wake Up

“Wake up, wake up!” A surprising, pleasant sound could be heard. Gao Yuan slowly opened his heavy eyelids. In front of his eyes was a vague, blurry figure. Above his eyes were layers upon layers of shadows. Exerting himself, he blinked a few times. Gao Yuan just realized that above his head were several heads. Every face carried an appearance of a nice surprise.

Am I still alive? How is this possible? Despite seeming sluggish, Gao Yuan just regained consciousness, but he clearly remembered being shot in the vitals repeatedly and that there were no survivors. Gao Yuan was proficient in wrestling and killing people. Regarding his body, Gao Yuan was sure that it had suffered injuries before.

Slowly turning his eyes, he scanned the entire room piece by piece. Everything in the room reflected light into his eyes: the s.p.a.cious fretwork of the bed and it’s decorative designs, the thick curtain, and the window’s wooden carvings. The beautiful sunlight s.h.i.+ned in through the cracks, stopping in front of the bed. Leaving Gao Yuan was a middle aged elder with an oval face, teary eyed face who seemed exceptionally mournful. A child about the age of ten leaned over the bedside. A little farther away was a young girl who was holding the edge of the curtain while incessantly trembling. She appeared to be noticeably nervous while leaning against the windows. An old man with salt and pepper hair appeared to be just preparing to leave, medical kit in hand, but leaning against the door was a middle aged woman about the age of forty.

“Who is he? How come I don’t recognize him? Where am I? Why haven’t I died?” Gao Yuan’s brain was paste as he tried with all his might, wanting to get a hold of what his current condition was, but he was empty handed.

“Big brother Gao woke up, big brother Gao woke up!” On the face of the ten year old child was the face of someone who was filled with pleasant surprise. Both hands slapping the edge of the bed, the child screamed from their lungs, “Big brother woke up! Big brother, the doctor said that you died. I just knew that you didn’t die!”

“Doctor Qiu, come back quickly! Gao Yuan woke up!” The middle aged person wiped tears off. Unbelievably, Gao Yuan opened his eyes to look. After a long while, he finally managed to respond. Immediately, his face uncovered a look of ecstasy. He could hear the sound of someone calling out something repeatedly.

An old man with gray hair and wrinkles all over his face was holding a medical kit in his hands. He dropped the kit onto the ground, only for it to bang. As he ran towards the bed, he carried a look of shock on his face. With wide eyes, he stared and looked at Gao Yuan. The old man kept incessantly murmuring, “How is it possible? how is it possible? You were, without a doubt, dead. How did you come back to life?”

“Doctor Qiu, you are Fu Feng city’s greatest doctor. How did you do it? Didn’t you say that Gao Yuan was already dead? He’s obviously still alive. You haven’t treated him yet,” shouted the middle aged person, lowering their tone to a more indifferent one.

“Yes, yes. Your excellency Lu, this old man will do his best definitely! This old man will definitely to do his best!” The man said while panicking.

“Not just with all your efforts, but for sure. Gao Yuan already died. You also must not want to say in Fu Feng city!” The middle aged person coldly said.

“Yes, yes!” The old man’s face became more and more big as he looked into Gao Yuan’s eyes.

“Not just with all your efforts, but for sure. If Gao Yuan dies again, you cannot stay in Fu Feng city!” The middle aged person coldly said.

“Yes, yes!” The old man’s face became more and more big as he looked into Gao Yuan’s eyes.

Who are they? Gao Yuan saw these couple of strange faces. His brain tossed and turned with all its might in order to recall their faces. However after a little while, he also didn’t want to go stand. His life was really simple. He practiced martial arts, he wrestled, and he earned money. After he found a place where he could relax to his heart’s content. Afterwards, he again repeated the process again until he was ahead. Turning his eyes around, he supposed that the more his eyes stared, the more his eyes got bigger and hazy as he looked around his environment. Finally, his head became a little crooked and he lost consciousness and pa.s.sed out again.

After Gao Yuan lost consciousness, the whole room became frantic.

Doctor Qiu’s face became tenser as beads of sweat dripped down his face. Just before, he had said that Gao Yuan had already died. Carrying his medical kit, he prepared to leave. But Gao Yuan just immediately woke up, and this explained his misdiagnosis when he delayed treatment. If the average person didn’t mind, then the question would be: this room couldn’t have a person any more foolish in the city. Extending his hand to go grab Gao Yuan’s left hand, Doctor Qiu’s eyes nevertheless became glaring wide. When he felt Gao Yuan’s pulse before, it was obvious that Gao Yuan didn’t have a pulse, but now Gao Yuan’s pulse was pumping vigorously.

“Doctor Qiu, how was it? How was it?” The middle aged person asked repeatedly. The middle aged person was already showing an excited expression all across their face.

“Your excellency, rest a.s.sured, Gao Yuan’s pulse showed that he simply fainted due to excessive blood loss. Gao Yuan didn’t lose his life, despite worries. Absolutely inconceivable! Inconceivable!”

“Good! Good!” The middle aged man spouted out in one breath, “My old friend left behind his only child. If he had died, so would I. How would I be able to face my old friend?”

“Your excellency, please be at ease. Gao Yuan’s body is healthy and he survived a dangerous situation, so no need to worry,” Doctor Qiu said without delay. “This old man will write the prescription immediately.”
