Chapter 226: Qin Weikang
Qin Weikang was an orphan. Ever since he was young, he had been beaten and abused in the orphanage. He had even almost lost his life due to a serious illness.
Fortunately, he was lucky. He had relied on his own resistance to curb the terrifying high fever and slowly recovered.
After he recovered, he understood that the orphanage he was in was a living hell that ate people and would not spit out their bones.
So he found an opportunity and ran out with his two older friends.
After successfully escaping, the three children made a living by stealing.
Later, the two older children were caught stealing and sent back to the orphanage.
He was the only one who begged for adoption from a kind-hearted person.
That person was his master.
He told his master about his inhuman experience in the orphanage, but he hid his theft after he escaped. He only said that he had been begging for a living, pretending to be innocent and kind.
His master sympathized with his experience, but he did not expect him to be so good at lying at such a young age, so he believed everything he said.
At first, his master only treated him as an adopted son. He did not plan to take him in as a disciple and teach him medical skills.
Because his master had a biological son, the medical skills passed down from the ancestors naturally had to be passed down to his biological son.
Qin Weikang had never expressed his intention to learn medicine. He only helped his master wash the medicinal herbs when he was busy and made some simple classifications to help his master.
Then, he secretly tried his best to remember the names and characteristics of the medicinal herbs, memorizing all the knowledge that his master had unintentionally said.
However, he was not in a hurry to show all of this.
Instead, he endured it for three years.
Three years later, he succeeded in using his diligence to gain the favor of his master and his parents. He was basically treated as half a biological son.
He also got along very well with his master’s biological son. Outsiders who did not know would often treat them as biological brothers.
After that, something happened.
Master’s biological son was in love for the first time. He fell in love with a girl from the same school.
That girl happened to be in the same class as Qin Weikang.
Therefore, Qin Weikang helped them send letters and pass gifts to each other every day.
After a while, the relationship between the two of them gradually heated up.
One day, the girl sent a note asking the boy to go to the riverside to look at the Moon at night. She also said that she had many things to tell him.
The boy gladly went to the appointment.
In the end, it was unknown whether it was because the road was slippery in the dark or for some other reason, but he fell into the river and drowned.
Qin Weikang’s master had lost his only son and was heartbroken. Naturally, he wouldn’t give up.
He tried his best to investigate why his son had sneaked out in the middle of the night. Soon, he found the girl’s note.
He went to the girl’s house and questioned what had happened that night, why the two of them had to meet in the middle of the night, and why the girl didn’t save his son who had fallen into the river.
The girl denied it, saying that she had never asked the boy to go to the river, and that she had not written the note.
She said that she had gone home to sleep that night as usual after school, and that she had done nothing and knew nothing.
Such an answer was naturally not convincing.
The affair between the two of them had long been an open secret among the students.
Everyone knew that Qin Weikang helped the two of them send letters and gifts to each other in the middle.
Qin Weikang said that the girl asked him to send the note, so everyone naturally believed him.
Regarding the girl’s crying and denial, everyone thought it was a lie to shirk responsibility.
No one believed the girl.
Everyone was forcing the girl to tell the truth and tell the truth about what happened that night.
The girl could not defend herself and finally hung herself at home.
The matter was settled just like that.
Qin Weikang’s master was depressed for a long time before he gradually began to practice medicine.
However, he no longer had the energy and spirit he used to have. He became like a walking corpse.
Qin Weikang still helped his master as usual. Occasionally, he would carefully ask some questions related to medicinal herbs.
Then, at the right time, he would slowly reveal his intelligence and talent.
His filial piety and companionship allowed his master to gradually walk out of the pain of losing his son.
And because his ancestral medical skills could not be broken, his master finally accepted him as a disciple and officially taught him medical skills.
Qin Weikang worked hard. In less than ten years, he learned all of his master’s skills and began to practice medicine on his own.
It was around that time that he took over the task of helping Old Master Ye recuperate from his master’s hands.
Then, he did it for more than forty years.
He went from being unknown to being famous all over China.
However, no matter how his reputation and status improved, he was always respectful and humble in front of Old Master Ye, as if those external names had never affected him in the slightest.
One had to admit that Qin Weikang was indeed an extremely intelligent person.
He had intelligence and shrewdness that far surpassed his peers. He knew how to read People’s expressions and judge the situation. He also had sufficient perseverance and forbearance.
With such intelligence and temperament, even if he didn’t meet his master, he still had the ability to manage his life well.
It could be said that for a person like him, no matter what opportunities he encountered, no matter what industry he entered, his final achievements would not be low.
But the more this was the case, the more Lin Bai felt that this person was extremely terrifying.
Because from the words in those life records, Lin Bai could read the viciousness and meanness hidden deep within him.
Lin Bai believed that the death of his master’s father’s son definitely had something to do with Qin Weikang.
Qin Weikang was smart enough not to push his son into the river.
However, he could have gotten some mud at the appointed place in advance to increase the chances of his master’s son falling into the water.
Even if he failed once, he could make a second or third attempt.
As long as he used the name of the girl to keep inviting his master’s son to dangerous places, it was only a matter of time before something happened.
Although Qin Weikang’s life experience did not explicitly state that he was the one who had faked the note and deliberately caused the death of his master’s biological son.
But just because the girl was willing to die to prove it, Lin Bai was willing to believe her.
He believed that she really had not written that note.
Qin Weikang was so smart, and he had handled so many letters written by girls, it should not be too difficult for him to imitate the handwriting.
At that time, he was not even ten years old, but he could use schemes and methods to get rid of obstacles for himself without making a sound.
Moreover, he didn’t have any psychological burden after the incident. He could calmly and consciously continue to endure and wait for the right opportunity to fight for the greatest benefit for himself.
He could do that even though he was not even ten years old. Now that he was over fifty years old, his schemes and methods would only be more ruthless and concealed.
