“How is it? Have you been shocked by your teacher’s technique?” Lin Fan asked as he inserted the silver needles. Zhao Ming Qing had a look of astonishment in his eyes.

Zhao Ming Qing nodded. “Mmm, Teacher, how did you do that?”

Lin Fan smiled. “Be patient. You can’t learn it in your current situation. When the time comes, I’ll slowly teach you. You’ll have to put effort into it. It isn’t something that can be learned overnight.”

Of course, this technique was really difficult to learn. Without the Encyclopedia’s mystical boost, no one would be able to reach this stage in a short time.

However, it gave Zhao Ming Qing hope. It made him think that a long as he persevered, he would be able to learn even more f*cking awesome medical skills.

“Teacher, don’t worry. I’ll definitely persevere until I learn this technique,” said Zhao Ming Qing.

“Haha, alright. You’ll have to work hard then. There is much that you do not know yet. You’re interested in researching medicine, aren’t you? Let’s set a small goal. For example, curing an incurable disease. What say you?” Lin Fan said with a smile.

When Zhao Ming Qing heard that, his eyes lit up in disbelief. “Teacher, are you for real?”

Lin Fan replied, “You still don’t believe me? When have I ever lied to you?”

“Right, Teacher has never lied to me. I can’t wait already,” said Zhao Ming Qing excitedly. He was filled with hope for the future.

Seeing Zhao Ming Qing like this, Lin Fan sighed in his heart. My good disciple, Teacher will definitely save you. But in the future, I’m going to be helpless.

How can a prescription be developed so easily? I’m definitely going to endure hardships again.

“Alright, go out for a walk and take in some fresh air. Don’t read books for now and don’t think about Chinese medicine either. Is that okay?” said Lin Fan.

“Yes. Whatever Teacher says, I’ll definitely listen.” Zhao Ming Qing smiled, then he got off the bed and dressed up before walking out.

Zhao Shi, who had been waiting outside the whole time, saw the old man and was suddenly invigorated. A wide smile appeared on her face. “You’ve recovered?”

Zhao Ming Qing replied, “Of course I have. With teacher personally treating me, how could there be a problem?”

“That’s good. That’s good.” Zhao Shi heaved a sigh of relief. She had really been afraid that something might happen.

“Teacher, will you stay for a meal?” asked Zhao Ming Qing.

Lin Fan waved his hand. “I won’t. I still have things to do. Take good care of your body.” Then, he shifted his gaze over to Zhao Shi. “Watch over him and don’t let him stay up at night. Don’t let him read books either.”

“Old man, did you hear that? Don’t stay up late anymore.” How could Zhao Shi possibly control Zhao Ming Qing? She shot him a glare.

“Sigh, I know.” Zhao Ming Qing nodded in agreement. Without reading any books, how would he survive?

...

Lin Fan left Zhao Ming Qing’s home. He felt that it was about time. Angling knowledge, give me strength. My student’s life is dependant on you.

He went back to his shop and said hello to Fraud Tian. For now, he wouldn’t be coming to the shop, nor would he be selling scallion pancakes.

Fraud Tian and the rest had no idea what had happened but they saw that Lin Fan’s expression was quite serious. They were afraid that a problem might have occurred, so they didn’t ask too much.

Lin Fan took his fishing rod and went to buy a tent. He was preparing for a crazy day of fishing.

He couldn’t go to the river bank. Although there weren’t too many people there, he would eventually be disturbed. Hence, he decided to choose a more remote area.

He started his car and set off.

He arrived downstream. There was not a trace of a person here. It was a desolate place. If he fished here, he probably wouldn’t be disturbed.

In Zhao Ming Qing’s current situation, his body’s organs were degenerating. With Lin Fan’s medical ability, changing that was impossible. He had to craft a medicinal pill.

But he was still short of many ingredients. He had to quickly fish up the ingredients he needed. This was a kind of gamble.

He carried a stool over and cast his fishing line out. He sat down and waited silently.

Fortunately, he had the Wuxia major class of knowledge and his strength was great. He wouldn’t have to give up due to fatigue.

Soon after.

There was a tug on his fishing line. His heart was a little eager. He started to retrieve his reward.

But he was disappointed. What he fished up was just a decent medicinal herb and it wasn’t what he needed to craft the medicinal pill. He felt slightly miserable.

But it was still early. He could slowly fish. He didn’t believe that, if he pressed on, he wouldn’t get what he wanted.

Several days passed.

Cloud Street.

Fraud Tian was getting suspicious. “Sigh, don’t you think it’s strange? Where has the kid gone? He hasn’t come back in a few days.”

Zhao Zhong Yang shook his head. “I have no idea. He won’t even pick up his phone. He must be busy with something.”

Fraud Tian’s brain started running wild. “Could it be that something has happened to him?”

Wu You Lan, who was cleaning the shop, glared at Fraud Tian. “Don’t say such inauspicious things. How could something happen to Brother Lin? He must be busy with something that he can’t afford to leave.”

The surrounding shop owners would come around and ask occasionally as well. After all, they hadn’t seen Little Boss in a few days. They were wondering if something had happened. Little Boss had disappeared mysteriously and suddenly.

The townsfolk who always bought scallion pancakes came occasionally to take a look as well. They realized that Master Lin hadn’t appeared in the shop for a few days and they were desperate.

They wanted to eat the scallion pancakes very badly. But if Master Lin didn’t appear, they were helpless.

In a villa.

Zhao Ming Qing was coughing. His vision was blurry and he felt that his whole body was weak.

Zhao Shi said, “Old man, are you not feeling well? Do you want to go and rest?”

Zhao Ming Qing nodded. “Mmm, I’ll rest for a bit. My body hasn’t been good recently. I can’t get my energy up at all.”

Zhao Shi asked, “Should I call the kids over and bring you to the hospital?”

“Why would you want to call them over? This is my own problem. How can we just call them over as we like? I don’t need to go to the hospital. I’m a doctor myself. How could I not know what’s the problem?” said Zhao Ming Qing.

Zhao Shi had no choice but to nod in agreement. After sending Zhao Ming Qing back to his room, she took out her phone and sneakily gave her son a call.

“Li Xing.”

“Mom, what is it?”

“Your dad’s health hasn’t been good recently and he’s always feeling weak. He even had flu a while ago which was cured by Master Lin. But now, he’s having problems again. Why don’t you come back and tell your dad to go to the hospital?” said Zhao Shi.

When Zhao Li Xing heard that, he became anxious. “Mom, I’ll tell the rest right now. We’ll come back together.”

“Alright, alright.”

Zhao Li Xing’s heart started thumping rapidly after he heard that. He kept feeling as if something must have gone wrong. He felt restless.

To him, his greatest fear was old people falling ill. If it was just falling ill, it would be fine because at least they would know about the problem. But this sudden loss of energy and weakness was hard to say.

Hence, without hesitation, he gave his brothers calls and told them to go home together to see how their father was doing.
