I Popularized the Pokemons in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 113: The Three Divine Doctors of Jian'an!

Zhang Ji?

Zhang Zhongjing?

Oh shit!

Why did the Medical Saint, Zhang Zhongjing, one of the Three Great Doctors of Jian'an, suddenly show up at Pokémon House?

Could it be that Zhang Zhongjing had been living in Luoyang all along, and that's how he knew about Pokémon House?

For a moment, Lin Yu was completely confused!

Glancing at Xu You (Ziyuan) beside him, Lin Yu quickly figured it out.

Xu You was from Nanyang, and Zhang Zhongjing was also from Nanyang.

It was highly likely that Zhang Zhongjing had come here because of Xu You.

The Tragic Past of Zhang Zhongjing

When it came to Zhang Zhongjing, his story was one of both brilliance and suffering.

According to historical records, the Eastern Han Dynasty faced three major epidemics during Emperor Huan's reign and five major epidemics during Emperor Ling's reign.

The plagues during the Jian'an period of Emperor Xian were even worse.

Millions of people perished, leading to one of the worst disasters in history, with nine out of ten households left empty.

The most devastating plagues occurred in 171, 173, 179, 182, and 185 AD, all during Emperor Ling's reign (168–188 AD).

In Nanyang, Sima Yi's hometown, plagues ravaged the population, leaving many dead.

Zhang Zhongjing's family was originally a large household of over 200 people.

But during the Jian'an period, in less than ten years, two-thirds of his family perished due to plague and typhoid fever.

The sheer sorrow and tragedy he endured led to his later creation of the "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases."

A true medical saint who emerged amidst chaos and suffering.

A Sudden Realization

As Lin Yu reflected on this, he couldn't help but sigh at Zhang Zhongjing's tragic history.

Wait…

182 AD.

A massive plague.

Oh shit!

Isn't this year 182 AD right now?!

Although there were no signs of the plague yet, Lin Yu knew it was coming.

This was a time of chaos, only two years away from the catastrophic Jiazi Year.

But…

Lin Yu wasn't afraid.

"I Have a Pokémon System!"

Let the plague come.

When an enemy arrives, we face them head-on.

When a flood comes, we build barriers.

Would he really be afraid of a little plague?

The very thought made Lin Yu smirk.

Where Is Hua Tuo?

As he pondered over the Three Divine Doctors of Jian'an, Lin Yu suddenly thought of Hua Tuo.

Where was Hua Tuo right now?

In discussions of the legendary doctors of the Three Kingdoms, thanks to Cao Cao, Hua Tuo was always mentioned.

He was probably still wandering around.

The famous "Qing Nang Book", which was lost to history, definitely hadn't been written yet.

After all, this was still the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Ling was still on the throne.

Cao Cao hadn't even become Prime Minister yet.

Hell, Cao Cao hadn't even started getting migraines yet.

Hua Tuo hadn't been thrown into prison by him yet.

None of that had even begun.

Lin Yu couldn't help but wonder—had Hua Tuo already created Ma Fei San (麻沸散, ancient anesthesia)?

Who Was the Third Great Doctor of Jian'an?

As for the third of the Three Divine Doctors of Jian'an…

Lin Yu had no clue.

For a moment, he was completely lost in thought.

"Master, can we begin?"

Xu You saw Lin Yu zoning out and cautiously asked.

"Yes."

Lin Yu snapped out of his thoughts and smiled at Xu You.

"Ziyuan, Zhongjing, please sit down."

Lin Yu gestured for them to sit, and Zhang Zhongjing quickly bowed in respect.

"Master, I Am Not Worthy!"

Zhang Zhongjing immediately protested.

"Master, I am but an ordinary scholar from a remote town. How could I possibly sit before you?"

"If not for my connection with Ziyuan, I likely would have never had the chance to meet you."

He already knew that the young man in front of him was none other than:

The Imperial Master of the Han Dynasty

The Marquis of Li

The Prime Minister

The Immortal and God that Xu You had spoken of

At first, Zhang Zhongjing didn't believe the rumors at all.

1. He had no interest in politics or power, so he never cared for court officials.

2. Even if he did, there were countless talented aristocrats in Luoyang—what made him think he would be noticed?

But still…

Why Did He Come?

Zhang Zhongjing first received Xu You's letter, which spoke of Pokémon and the legendary Imperial Master.

He laughed it off, thinking Xu You was exaggerating as usual.

Then, he received a second letter, which claimed that Dong Zhuo's asthma had been cured.

That changed everything.

Asthma? Cured?

Impossible!

Even if Xu You was lying, he had to see it for himself.

So, he immediately packed his bags and came to Luoyang.

When he visited Dong Zhuo, he was stunned.

It was true.

That was when he knew—he had to meet this legendary Imperial Master.

"Sir, Don't Be So Humble!"

Lin Yu chuckled and helped Zhang Zhongjing up.

"I respect you very much. Please, don't be so reserved!"

Lin Yu genuinely admired Zhang Zhongjing.

Historically, Zhang Zhongjing came from a family of officials and later became the prefect of Shangsha.

But in order to dedicate himself to curing the plague, he resigned from office without hesitation.

This was the complete opposite of Hua Tuo, who had wanted to become an official.

Becoming a county governor was a lifetime achievement for most people.

But Zhang Zhongjing simply walked away from it.

That kind of determination and selflessness was truly rare.

Zhang Zhongjing Was Shocked

Hearing Lin Yu's words, Zhang Zhongjing was stunned.

Wait… has the Imperial Master heard of me before?

When did I become famous?

Even I don't know!

Still, since Lin Yu said so, Zhang Zhongjing respectfully obeyed.

Xu You Was Speechless

Xu You and Xu Ziyuan were both shocked.

Why was Lin Yu treating Zhang Zhongjing with such kindness?

Even when Yuan Shao (Yuan Benchu) came, he hadn't shown this much interest!

What made Zhang Zhongjing so special?

Forget it.

I should probably get closer to him in the future.

Drawing a Pokémon

Lin Yu walked over and handed Zhang Zhongjing a Pokédex.

"Press the button to receive your destined Pokémon."

Zhang Zhongjing looked at the strange device in his hands, feeling a little nervous.

"Master, is there a way to draw a Pokémon with healing abilities?"

Lin Yu smiled.

"That depends on fate."

Hearing this, Zhang Zhongjing nodded.

Without hesitation, he pressed the button.
