"How has Hansheng been faring lately?" Liu Pan, seeing Huang Zhong standing atop the city wall and looking down at the military camp below, opened with this inquiry.
"He's not dead yet!" Huang Zhong knew Liu Pan was not asking about the situation across from them but was inquiring about his son. However, Huang Zhong, who had pretty much given up on himself, replied irritably. His own son was barely clinging to life, yet Zhang Zhongjing had said there would be no immediate danger to his life.
Though Huang Zhong had often wanted to hack his colleague, the physician Zhang Zhongjing, to death, under normal circumstances he trusted Zhang Zhongjing greatly. Since the physician had assured that there would be no death, there would be no death.
