Probably because of his career, Lu Zhengqing has a calm and gentle temperament, which is easy to make people like him.
His eyes were soft and he smiled slightly, "May I ask how long Miss Hua has been here?"
"...here?" Hua Qingxue was a little confused. This refers to... Shengjing? It didn't seem to be many days, but why was he asking
Lu Zhengqing sat on the wooden bench, tapping his fingers lightly on his legs, "When did Miss Hua come to Daqi? Or... when did she come to this world?"
Hua Qingxue's eyes suddenly opened wide!
What does he mean? Could it be...could he be too...
"You..." Hua Qingxue was so shocked that she was speechless.
Lu Zhengqing smiled slightly, "I have been here for ten years."
"I really didn't expect..." Hua Qingxue looked at him in shock, "There is someone like me... How did you get here?"
"When I graduated, I went on a cruise with my classmates. Something happened to the cruise ship. I probably drowned." Lu Zhengqing smiled bitterly.
But after all, it was ten years ago, and looking at his expression, he seemed to be relieved.
Lu Zhengqing asked Hua Qingxue again: "What about you?"
Hua Qingxue was a little embarrassed, "I don't remember much, it seems... he fell to his death."
"Don't remember?" Lu Zhengqing asked her with interest, "Is it because of the stimulation received when traveling through time and space that caused the amnesia?"
"I don't know..." Hua Qingxue sighed faintly, "I only vaguely remember that I am a graduate student, and occasionally think of some trivial things from school, but what my name is, who my parents are, and where I live, I can't remember any of these. …”
"It doesn't matter if you don't remember. The more you remember, the more of a psychological burden it becomes." Lu Zhengqing said with a smile, "In the first few years when I came here, I could hardly find the energy to do anything else. I kept remembering my relatives and friends at home. , I feel very sad.”
It must be very uncomfortable to be away from home all of a sudden. Hua Qingxue looked at him curiously, "Then what are you doing now..."
Lu Zhengqing still had a smile on his face, "Now that I'm married, I have a wife and children, and my life is pretty good, but I can't compare with you. I actually made gunpowder, which saved Daqi from war and benefited the people on the border. , it can be said that the merits are immeasurable.”
Hua Qingxue felt embarrassed when he praised her like this, and replied shyly: "There are specialties in the art industry, and you are also very powerful. You can save lives and heal the wounded."
Lu Zhengqing shook his head, "I studied medicine in university, but Western medicine is different from traditional Chinese medicine, especially modern medicine, which relies heavily on various advanced equipment and drugs. Without those things, it is really difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice."
He smiled and said to Hua Qingxue: "I'm not afraid of your jokes. When I first got here, I couldn't even find a job. In the end I had to do hard labor, but my body can't compare with those strong men who have been working all year round. I collapsed from exhaustion after working for a few days. Fortunately, I was saved by a kind-hearted doctor. He cured me, accepted me as his disciple, and taught me medical skills. Slowly, my life became easier."
Although Lu Zhengqing and Hua Qingxue are more than ten years apart, they are both time-travelling people. When talking about the time when they just time-traveled, they have a lot in common. Hua Qingxue also chatted with Lu Zhengqing about the embarrassing things that happened when she time-traveled.
She said: "I fell in the mountains. It was snowing at the time. I was still wearing a summer T-shirt and jeans. I finally fainted from the cold. If the emperor hadn't saved me, I would have frozen to death."
When Lu Zhengqing heard this, he gave Hua Qingxue a false alarm, "That was really thrilling."
Then he added: "I fell at the bottom of the cliff. It was summer, but the bottom of the cliff was very cool. I walked for a day and a night before I came out. I was hungry and tired, but my life was not worried."
The two then talked about Hua Qingxue's illness.
Lu Zhengqing said: "There must be some foreign body in your brain that compresses the capillaries in the brain, which is why you are in coma. Unfortunately, there is no X-ray or CT room here, so I can't determine the location of the foreign body. "
Hua Qingxue smiled helplessly, "I do know its specific location, but... Unless you have the conditions for brain surgery, there is nothing you can do..."
"You know?" Lu Zhengqing opened his eyes wide and looked at Hua Qingxue in disbelief.
"Yes, the chip is right here." Hua Qingxue pointed to a place on her forehead, "Don't you have one?"
Seeing that Lu Zhengqing was speechless, she immediately understood, "We are not from the same era..."
Lu Zhengqing was amazed, "In other words, in the next few decades, humans will have microchips implanted in their brains? This is too unimaginable. Will there be no safety risks?"
"It's fairly safe. Chip products will be updated every few years, and they will be replaced when the time comes. At least before I came here, I have never heard of anyone's health being affected by implanted chips." Hua Qingxue finished. , and sighed, "Even if something happens, relying on medical technology is just a minor problem..."
In her time, micro-robots could be used to deliver the chip to a designated location and replace the chip, which was a completely painless and non-invasive minor surgery.
But in this day and age, in this place, a small chip has become a big trouble.
Lu Zhengqing's expression also became heavy.
He has been here for ten years and has made no other achievements except improving the outer suture technique in Daqi's medical treatment. It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he can't do it.
He couldn't achieve the most basic sterile conditions for a surgery, let alone anesthesia, syringes and other basic medical equipment that couldn't be more basic
And brain surgery is even more sensational.
—Who can cut open the skin and flesh, open the skull with a drill, and remove a microchip that is only a few millimeters in size without causing any damage to the brain nerves
Ten years ago, Lu Zhengqing was just a graduate of a medical university with internship experience, but he had never performed a brain surgery!
But if even he can't do it, who else in the world can do it
"You might as well think on the bright side." Lu Zhengqing said slowly after being silent for a long time, "Since it is a universal chip, its safety performance must be guaranteed. Even if it has been damaged, as long as it is no longer irritated, there should be no life. Worry…”
Hua Qingxue sighed and nodded, "Well, I think this coma was probably because I accidentally used the chip again. Last night I drew an exploded diagram of the telescope. Because some of the data was uncertain, I used the chip to search for information. … It’s really hard to control because knowledge is so interconnected.”
For example, the principle of the telescope is actually very simple. Hua Qingxue also knows the general structure. However, the spacing between the concave and convex mirrors, the diameter, and the depth. It is impossible for her to remember all these tiny values clearly. It is almost unconscious. I searched the knowledge base in the chip.
Who thought the result would be so bad...
"Maybe it's God's arrangement." Lu Zhengqing couldn't help but sigh, "After all, this chip really shouldn't have appeared in this era."
Hua Qingxue felt mixed after hearing this.
One of them is a graduate student of the Academy of Sciences, and the other is a graduate of the Medical College. These two identities should be the least likely to believe in ghosts and gods, but it is ridiculous to appear in this world strangely.
The two chatted for a while, mentioning the unaccustomed aspects of life, food, clothing, housing and transportation after time travel. They seemed to regret meeting each other late. They were just worried that Li Jingnan and Fu Tingye outside would be impatient, so they agreed to meet again next time and ended the conversation in a hurry.
When Li Jingnan and Fu Tingye came in, their expressions were a little strange. They probably didn't expect them to chat for so long, and they looked at the faces of the two people in the room with doubtful eyes.
Hua Qingxue turned her face away with a guilty conscience.
Lu Zhengqing's attitude was magnanimous. He stood up and saluted Li Jingnan and Fu Tingye and said, "Miss Hua does not need medication for this disease, but she must take a good rest and be careful not to overwork her mind and body."
"That's all?" Li Jingnan looked confused and surprised, "You guys have been chatting for so long, and this is all you talked about?"
Lu Zhengqing glanced at Hua Qingxue and replied calmly: "Because Miss Hua's illness came on suddenly, Wei Chen asked more about Miss Hua's past, hoping to understand the cause of the disease more clearly."
Hua Qingxue nodded and agreed: "Well, we talked about some past things, so it took a long time."
She smiled at Li Jingnan, "Are you anxious? Don't worry, I'm fine."
Li Jingnan was stunned for a moment and turned his head to the side, very arrogantly, "I'm not worried about you!"
"Then why are you here?"
"...I'm here to see if you have reflected on it!" Li Jingnan puffed out his chest and said confidently, "I am a man, and I don't care about you. Since you already know your mistake, I will forgive you!"
Hua Qingxue thought to herself, I obviously haven't said anything yet...
Fu Tingye's eyes swept over Hua Qingxue and Lu Zhengqing calmly, and said, "Thank you for your hard work this time, Doctor Lu. I'll give it to you."
"Don't dare, general, stay here." Lu Zhengqing picked up his medicine box, cupped his hands towards Fu Tingye, and then bowed to Li Jingnan, "I'm sorry, I'm leaving."
Li Jingnan waved his hand carelessly, and Lu Zhengqing bowed and retreated.
Fu Tingye probably still had something to ask, so he sent Lu Zhengqing out with him. Only Li Jingnan and Hua Qingxue were left in the room.
Hua Qingxue looked at Li Jingnan with a smile, "Is it really okay for you to run out of the palace every three days?"
"I am the emperor, who dares to control me?" Li Jingnan replied bravely.
Hua Qingxue looked at his proud little face, her heart softened, and her tone was much softer, "Don't punish the palace people casually anymore. Even if you have to punish, there should be a measure."
"That's long-winded." Li Jingnan curled his lips, but did not refute her again.
"If the mirror is broken, just break it. Don't be angry about it." Hua Qingxue asked him softly, "Do you still have the fragments?"
Li Jingnan nodded, looking a little aggrieved for no reason.
If the eunuch broke only ordinary objects in the room, he might not lose his temper so much, but it happened to be Hua Qingxue's mirror...
"Next time, bring the fragments to me." Hua Qingxue said.
Li Jingnan blinked and asked, "Can you fix it? I've tried sticking it many times, but it still doesn't work!"
Hua Qingxue smiled, her tone a little mysterious, "Just bring it over, and I'll tell you when the time comes."
