Grandpa's seventieth birthday, naturally, all these relatives and friends would come over.

With so many people, naturally, there would be more matters to attend to at home.

This was the reason why Su Jiu was so eager.

As the only son of his father, he naturally couldn't lose face for his father. Not only that, for Grandpa's seventieth birthday, according to etiquette, he also had to show his filial piety.

Su Jiu composed himself and set off for the city center.

...

Su Jiu's home was in JX Province. There was a train from Xiang City to JX Province, which only took a few hours to reach.

After buying the things he needed in the city center of Xiang City, Su Jiu bought a ticket and got on the train directly.

There was nothing he needed to bring; money was enough.

On the train from Xiang City to JX Province, Su Jiu sat by the window.

"Little brother, can you help me with this?" Not long after Su Jiu found his seat, a fat man walked over, carrying two suitcases, and said to Su Jiu with a sweaty head.

"Sure."

Su Jiu sized up the man. He was at most 1.7 meters tall, all fat, and weighed at least 200 pounds. Standing in front of Su Jiu, he squinted his small eyes, smiled, and said with a sweaty head.

Clearly, such a fat body made it very inconvenient to lift the luggage onto the luggage rack.

When traveling, Su Jiu didn't mind helping others. If he could help, he would lend a hand.

"Thanks, little brother. Here, have a cigarette." Hearing Su Jiu's agreement, the fat man's small eyes squinted even more. He put down the luggage, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out, and handed it to Su Jiu.

"Thanks, but I don't smoke." Su Jiu refused, stood up, and placed the fat man's luggage on the luggage rack, then sat down again.

Anyone who has taken a train knows that on a short trip of a few hours, the hard-seat compartment is particularly crowded with a large number of people coming and going.

Passengers might get on at one station and get off at the next.

When traveling, one must be cautious and not accept cigarettes from strangers, which is something to remember, especially since Su Jiu didn't smoke.

Su Jiu had seen many incidents on trains from the internet. Many people, after accepting cigarettes from strangers, ended up losing consciousness and losing all their belongings.

The train had two seats per row, four seats facing each other. Su Jiu got on the train relatively early.

At the moment, there were only Su Jiu and the fat man.

Not long after, two more people came and sat opposite him. They were two girls, about the same age as Su Jiu, carrying small bags, wearing headphones, and slowly found their seats, sitting opposite Su Jiu.

The two girls were clearly good friends. After sitting down, they chatted incessantly and didn't pay attention to others.

They were just focused on playing with their phones.

Su Jiu understood that this was the current state of society. When traveling, one naturally had to be cautious of strangers.

Su Jiu didn't plan to chat with others. After the fat man sat down, he closed his eyes.

The train soon started, and the bustling scene in the carriage gradually slowed down as everyone found their seats.

It was broad daylight, and the people in the hard-seat compartment were not on a long journey, so the carriage was still lively, with people playing cards, eating snacks, and chatting.

Su Jiu was familiar with such scenes. When he first enrolled at Xiang University, the scene was similar.

Thinking about it, several months had passed in the blink of an eye, and time really flew by.

In these few short months, he had experienced so much.

Su Jiu was well aware that the changes and experiences in these few months were enough to rival the experiences of his first eighteen years.

Especially the mysterious golden compass in his mind.

This could be said to have completely overturned Su Jiu's worldview.

"Is there a doctor here? Someone has fainted. If there is a doctor, please stand up and help." Just as Su Jiu's thoughts were wandering, a voice broke through the noise in the carriage and reached his ears.

"A man in carriage three has suddenly fainted. Is there a doctor here?"

The noisy carriage suddenly quieted down, and everyone looked at the anxious expression of the attendant.

Clearly, someone in carriage three was having a medical emergency.

Carriage three, Su Jiu knew, was the soft sleeper section, the best part of the entire train.

At this moment, it was clearly an urgent situation.

The attendant called out for a long time without any response. After more than ten seconds, no one spoke up. Su Jiu knew that there was probably no doctor in this carriage.

"I..." Just as Su Jiu stood up, another young man also stood up.

"I am an intern doctor." A young man stood up, looking somewhat nervous.

Su Jiu's words were interrupted by this man.

When Su Jiu was a child, he had some contact with traditional Chinese medicine through his grandfather. The role of a feng shui master was very broad, as feng shui required a lot of experience and knowledge.

A feng shui master should understand basic medical skills, which was a very important factor. For example, if someone fainted, and the feng shui master couldn't determine whether it was due to illness or other causes like negative energy, how could they diagnose and solve feng shui problems?

The principle was that simple.

Seeing no doctor, Su Jiu stood up voluntarily, but he didn't expect that at this moment, this young man would stand up.

Su Jiu thought for a moment and was about to sit down, not getting involved, as medicine was not his specialty. He only knew a little bit.

"You two come with me!" However, the attendant didn't think so.

The attendant's thinking was simple: since you stood up, you must be a doctor. More people mean more chances.

That was the simple logic.

Hearing the attendant's words, Su Jiu was a bit surprised but didn't say much. He immediately stood up, told the fat man sitting next to him to move over, and followed the young intern doctor to carriage three.

"Little brother, you're pretty good! You're actually a doctor." The fat man squinted his eyes, smiled, and gave a thumbs up.

At this moment, even the two girls opposite were looking at Su Jiu with surprise. A young man of about the same age as them was actually a doctor.

Unlike the young intern doctor, who looked at least twenty-five or twenty-six, he couldn't be compared to Su Jiu, who looked only seventeen or eighteen.

To put it simply, there was a generation gap in their appearances.
