Chapter 1: Awakening Past-Life Wisdom, Divine Physician Hua Tuo (New book, seeking collections

In the year 183 AD, inside a room in the inner courtyard of the Dengxian County Magistrate’s office in Nanyang.

"Ugh... Who am I? Where am I?"

Su Xuan, lying on the couch, opened his eyes. At first, his gaze was dazed, but he quickly regained his clarity.

He slowly sat up.

At the same time, he felt a vast amount of memories surging from the depths of his soul.

These were the memories of a young man who was also named Su Xuan, but who had lived in a world called Earth.

In a brief moment, countless images flashed before his eyes, playing out the 32-year life of another person like a revolving lantern.

"I have transmigrated and been reborn? Is this the awakening of my past-life memories?"

Once he had digested all the surging memories, Su Xuan, having regained his composure, understood what these memories were about.

[You have awakened your past-life wisdom, received a gift from your home planet Earth, and awakened the Max-Level Comprehension talent. From now on, your comprehension is heaven-defying.]

At this moment, such a sentence suddenly appeared in his mind.

The next instant, Su Xuan felt as if his entire brain had just drunk a bottle of ice water in the middle of summer—it was incredibly clear and incomparably comfortable.

At the same time, he felt his thinking and inspiration elevated to the extreme in an instant.

With just a slight thought, countless ideas and inspirations surged into his mind.

Furthermore, all the memories from his past and present lives became crystal clear at this moment, impossible to ever forget again.

"Whoa! I didn't expect to receive a gift from my home planet and get such a heaven-defying cheat! This is going to be huge!"

Once he came to his senses, Su Xuan’s face was filled with joy.

He had been reborn in the late Han Dynasty, the era of the Three Kingdoms.

According to his thoughts before awakening these memories or without this cheat, he would certainly have tried to find a way to survive in these troubled times.

He wouldn't have dared to even think about vying for hegemony.

After all, his family background wasn't strong enough.

But now, with this cheat, the ambition in Su Xuan’s heart was thoroughly ignited.

"If I don't participate in the struggle for hegemony, fight against the warlords, and live a life of passion, wouldn't that be a waste of this cheat and this transmigration?"

"No matter what, I must change history and prevent the dark history of the Five Barbarians' chaos from ever happening."

Su Xuan secretly vowed in his heart.

To hold the power of the world in his palm and sleep drunk on the knees of beauties—that was his life’s pursuit now.

"Creak!"

At this moment, the door outside was pushed open.

Su Xuan turned his head to look, and six people walked in.

"Hmm? Xuan'er, you're awake? That's great! You finally woke up!"

"How are you feeling?"

The middle-aged man and woman who led the way saw that Su Xuan had woken up and had even sat up, so they excitedly stepped forward with concern.

"Big Brother! Are you better? That's wonderful!"

Following them, the three youths who walked in behind their parents also stepped forward excitedly.

Su Xuan smiled slightly and replied: "Father, Mother, Second Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother, thank you for your concern. I feel much better, and I believe I will be fine very soon!"

The middle-aged man and woman were his parents in this life: Su Lie and Huang Shi.

Of the three youths, the older one who looked steady was his second brother, Su Yu, 15 years old this year.

The smaller one was his third brother, Su Zhan, 13 years old this year; he had a sturdy, tiger-like appearance, was born with great strength, and was very robust.

The youngest was his fourth brother, Su Yi, 11 years old this year, who possessed the ability of photographic memory.

Setting these things aside for now, Su Xuan looked at the old man who had followed them in and cupped his hands: "Many thanks to the divine physician Hua Tuo for saving my life. Otherwise, I don't know if I could have survived this illness!"

That’s right! The person who treated him was the divine physician Hua Tuo.

Before awakening his memories, Su Xuan didn't think there was anything special about the name, knowing only that this person was a famous divine physician.

But after awakening his past-life memories, he knew all too well the weight of the name Hua Tuo.

"I must find a way to keep Hua Tuo here and make him serve me!"

"It just so happens that I have read many medical books in my past-life memories. I can take out a portion of them to attract and win over Hua Tuo, and then use other means to keep him."

Su Xuan thought to himself.

He knew too well the importance of having a divine physician in the family during this era.

"Besides, since I have heaven-defying comprehension, shouldn't I learn Hua Tuo’s medical skills?"

He had also read some Traditional Chinese Medicine books in his past life, which he could use to attract Hua Tuo.

"Also, I must learn the Five Animal Frolics. My constitution and body in this life are not very good, so being able to strengthen my body is a good thing!"

"If I can use this to improve my martial cultivation, that would be even better!"

Su Xuan thought again.

After all, judging from the memories of the past ten-plus years, this world was not a simple historical world.

It was a world that possessed martial arts.

However, the martial arts of this world were somewhat strange.

There was no such thing as internal energy, but the paths of body tempering and blood-Qi existed.

There even existed peerless martial experts who mastered Gang Qi.

Those were truly one-man-against-ten-thousand existences, extremely terrifying.

The martial realms of this world were roughly divided into:

Not yet mastered force (Unranked), Ming Jin (Third-rate), An Jin (Second-rate), Transformation Realm (First-rate), Bao Dan (Super-first-rate, Grandmaster), Gang Jin (Peerless, Great Grandmaster), and the legendary Seeing God Without Decay (Divine General, Heavenly Human).

"Not at all!"

Seeing this, Hua Tuo quickly smiled and returned the salute: "Treating illnesses and saving people is my duty as a physician; the young master is too polite! Seeing that the young master’s complexion has improved a lot, let me take your pulse again to check!"

"Good! Sorry for the trouble!"

Su Xuan nodded.

Su Lie, Huang Shi, and the others quickly stepped aside.

After Hua Tuo stepped forward to take Su Xuan’s pulse and diagnose him, he smiled and said to Su Xuan and the others: "Congratulations, Young Master, the illness is basically gone! I will write another prescription later; if the young master takes the medicine according to the prescription for three more doses, you should be fully recovered!"

"However, the young master’s constitution is on the weak side. If you want a healthy body in the future, you still need to exercise and recuperate more."

Hearing this, Su Xuan’s eyes lit up slightly as he looked at Hua Tuo and quickly asked: "Sir, I have heard that you have created a set of health-preserving exercises called the Five Animal Frolics, which can strengthen the body and recuperate health. I wonder if that is true?"

"Would I be fortunate enough to learn a thing or two? I will definitely reward you handsomely afterwards!"

He was just wondering how to bring it up, and he didn't expect Hua Tuo to provide the opening himself. How could he miss this?

Su Lie and Huang Shi both looked at Hua Tuo, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Their eldest son’s health had always been poor; if he could recuperate through exercise, that would be the best thing possible.

"Oh?"

Hua Tuo raised his eyebrows in surprise: "I didn't expect the young master to know about the Five Animal Frolics. Indeed, the Five Animal Frolics I created have the effect of strengthening the body. Since the young master is interested, I am naturally willing to teach you."

"Three days from now, after this medicine is finished, the young master’s body should be initially recovered. At that time, I will come to teach you the Five Animal Frolics, how about that?"

Hua Tuo had no intention of hiding it; in his view, it was a good thing that someone was willing to learn the Five Animal Frolics.
