National Hand Medicine

Chapter 138 Legacy (3)
"Your master is Lin Xuanqing." The old man said lightly, but the power of these words was comparable to a bomb!
Su He was startled, and immediately took precautions. She calmly put on a defensive posture. Every cell in her body was ready to move, as if she might explode at any time and give the enemy a blow.

However, she still pretended to be dazed, and looked at the old man puzzled: "Grandpa Zhao, what are you talking about? What master? I don't have a master. Who is Lin Xuanqing? Have you misunderstood someone?"

The old man chuckled, and the coldness on his face melted instantly because of his smile, and the spring blossomed.

This old man in his dying years actually has a unique charm because of this smile, which makes Su He suddenly feel that the person lying on the hospital bed is not an old man who is nearly seventy years old, but a man of peerless beauty generally!
"Your acting skills are not bad, but it's not good in front of me." The old man smiled, with a wise light shining in his eyes.

Su He knew that his acting skills were nothing in front of the old man, so he stopped pretending.

The smile on her face faded in an instant: "Oh, so you can see it, then I don't need to continue to waste my energy. Well, do you know my master? Are you an enemy or a friend?"

A nostalgic expression appeared on the old man's face, and he sighed after a long time and said, "...Hey, it's neither an enemy nor a friend."

"What does it mean?"

The old man pondered for a while: "Your master and I should be regarded as the same school."

"You are also from the ghost doctor's school?" Su He was a little surprised now.

"Ghost doctor?" The old man's expression suddenly became strange, and he shook his head after a while, "No, I'm not."

Su He was a little confused now—isn't her master Lin Xuanqing from the ghost doctor school? Since this old man said he was from the same school as her master Lin Xuanqing, he should also be from the ghost doctor school. Why did he say no?
Seeing Su He's confusion, the old man chuckled, but instead of explaining the reason to her, he talked about his own martial arts: "Did you see that I am a master of strength? "

Su He was somewhat puzzled by the old man's intention of saying this, but still nodded.

There was a sarcastic smile on the old man's face: "This Huajin is just an appearance. My martial arts have been useless for decades. Now, I am just dying."

Su He was so surprised that he couldn't help blurting out: "But your cultivation seems to be...!"

The old man waved his hand: "It's just the illusion that I took the medicine back then. If you think about it, one hand is enough to kill me. Didn't you feel my pulse? Do you feel that my pulse is very weak and I don't look like a warrior at all?" ?" The old man said these words without any scruples, as if he was not worried that Su Ho would harm him.

Su He frowned and didn't speak.

In fact, she already believed eighty percent of what the old man said—according to his explanation, this kind of phenomenon might indeed happen, but it was only in theory, and Su He had never seen a real case.

"Actually, my time is running out." The old man said suddenly.

"Impossible!" Su He blurted out, "Although your pulse condition is weak, it is normal and there is nothing wrong with it!"

The old man smiled and shook his head: "I told you, it's all an illusion."

Su He stopped talking, she was going to hear what the old man had to say.

"I was called a genius back then. I became a master of Huajin when I was in my 20s, and I even got to know your master as a confidant. It can be said that I was full of energy and life. But my life also fell into a trough at the most glorious time. I I was plotted against by others, my meridians were completely destroyed, and my cultivation base was completely lost. If it wasn’t for your master to help me, I’m afraid I wouldn’t even be able to survive. In order to avoid the pursuit of my enemies, I had to hide in a small mountain village. , for several decades.” The old man sighed deeply when he talked about the events of that year.

Su He heard the words, but couldn't help frowning——If this person is really a close friend of Master, then according to Master's protective nature, it should be impossible for this old man to live such a hard life for decades. He will definitely help the old man!Could it be that this old man hid it so well that even Master couldn't find it?

Su He was puzzled, but he didn't ask the question out.

The old man continued to immerse himself in the memories of the past: "Actually, the two children, Amei and Adong, were picked up by me. If their mother was dead, they were all lied to. They were young at that time, and they still remember What? But I really regarded them as my own children, completely forgot about my previous life, and really fell into the lie I made up, but I never thought that A Dong would be such a person..."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but feel depressed.

After all, he really poured his emotions into this son, and now this son has become an out-and-out white-eyed wolf. He would definitely be lying if he said he was not sad.

"I didn't expect Adong to put his mind on my batch of things. Those antiques are all my hobbies. I used to collect some spare money to collect them, but now they have become a scourge." The old man sighed and said. After finishing, he suddenly raised his head to look at Su He, and said solemnly, "But, I will not leave those things to my adopted son and daughter. I am going to give you all these things!"

"Give it to me?" Su He, who had been just being a qualified listener, was stunned.

This old man wants to keep those antiques to himself?What are you kidding?Judging from the old man's tone, those antiques should be of high value, but he wants to give them to himself, this...

"This is what I owe your master." The old man said sadly, "but please don't tell your master about me, he may think that I... hey, don't mention the past." Su He shook Shaking his head: "I'm sorry, Grandpa Zhao, I can't take these things."

The old man looked at Su He and was not particularly surprised.

"Actually, I have some selfish intentions to leave it to you." The old man explained, "Those things are my favorite things. I have treasured them for half my life. Now I want to give them to someone. The only qualified person is you. My adopted son Adong is too greedy, these things will only be sold cheap if they fall into his hands, but my adopted daughter Amei is too cowardly, even if the things are in her hands, she will be robbed, she has no ability to keep them." He raised his head and looked at Su He with burning eyes: "You are the only one. I don't have much time. Can you...can you fulfill my wish?"

Su He didn't know what to do for a while.

She looked at the old man's solemn gaze, and she couldn't say the words of refusal no matter what.
