When I was a Taoist

Chapter 170
The strange doctor didn't pay attention to us, but said indifferently: "Which one of the people who come here to beg me is not a famous person, and none of them can break my precedent. You go, I will not rescue you."

"Senior Weird Doctor, only you can cure my apprentice. As long as you are willing to act, I can agree to any conditions!"

After finishing speaking, under my shocked gaze, Gao Liang actually knelt on one knee in front of the hut door!

"Master, get up. Didn't you say that a man has gold under his knees? Even if I die, I can't let you do that."

My tears flowed instantly, Gao Liang, a man who has never surrendered, is willing to kneel here for me.I struggled desperately to get up from his back, but I didn't have any strength in my body, so I failed after several attempts.

"Senior strange doctor, if you don't go out to see me, this junior will just kneel down here." Gao Liang ignored me, just held me tightly with his hands, and then said loudly towards the hut.

"Hehe, do whatever you want, anyway, it's your apprentice's time that's wasted."

The strange doctor sneered, and then stopped talking.Gao Liang didn't say a word, no matter how much I begged, he knelt in front of the hut without moving, staring at the door of the hut.

Time passed by every minute and every second. From noon until evening, Gao Liang didn't move a single bit, keeping his kneeling posture like a sculpture.I also woke up from a coma once, and found that the condition in my body was getting worse, and I was almost unconscious from the fever, and I even had a pendulum.

"Master... let's go, I'm hopeless." I said stutteringly while trembling.

"Stinky boy, hold on, I will definitely have a way to save you!" Gao Liang gritted his teeth, listening to his tone seemed to be extremely tired, but he still persisted.

"Hey, if you kneel down like this, can I still go out, old man?"

Suddenly, the voice of the strange doctor sounded in the hut.After coughing twice, the strange doctor said: "Seeing how persistent you are, I will give you a chance. If you can go down the mountain and bring me the medicinal materials behind the stele, I will consider saving your apprentice's life."

Hearing this, Gao Liang thanked the strange doctor ecstatically, then got up abruptly and ran towards the foot of the mountain.As the saying goes, going up a mountain is easy and going down is hard. After Gao Liang knelt for five or six hours, his legs became numb.Coupled with my anxiety, I almost fell to the ground several times.After finally running to the foot of the mountain, Gao Liang found a medicinal herb from behind the stone tablet, packed it and rushed towards the top of the mountain.

This back and forth highlighting is all I can do, lest I will delay another minute on the road.When he returned to the top of the mountain with me on his back, Gao Liang's clothes were wet and dry, dry and wet, and a thick layer of white alkali had already formed.

"Senior, I brought the medicinal ingredients here!" Gao Liang gently placed the medicinal ingredients at the door, and knelt down again.I clearly felt that Gao Liang's body was trembling uncontrollably, and I was afraid that even a single feather falling might crush him.

"That's right. Next, the old man needs you to do one more thing. As long as you can do it, I can cure this child."

After a pause, a dagger was thrown out from the window of the hut, and then the strange doctor continued: "There is a cave on the east side of the mountain, and there is a monster that has lived in it for hundreds of years. If you can dig out its heart Come out and give it to me, and your apprentice will be saved."

If it wasn't for the fact that I didn't have the strength to speak at all, I would have stopped Gao Liang.Which of the monsters that have been able to practice for hundreds of years does not have the power to move mountains and fill seas?Let Gao Liang be beheaded in such a state, wouldn't he be sent to die?
Without the slightest hesitation, Gao Liang put me on the ground lightly, picked up the dagger and said, "Please rest assured, senior, I will definitely kill this monster."

"and many more."

The strange doctor threw out another pill and said, "Give him this medicine, and it will save his life for another half day. Remember, this monster only appears at night, and even a gleam of light will make him escape. If you don't kill it before sunrise, your apprentice will be lost."

Gao Liang stuffed the pill into my mouth, then turned and left.After the pill entered my body, my condition recovered a bit, and I could barely see the back of Gao Liang leaving.I opened my mouth, but couldn't say anything, only two lines of tears fell from the corners of my eyes.

"Boy, you have a good master." The strange doctor sighed from the hut, and then there was no movement.Originally, I wanted to wait for Gao Liang to come back, but in the middle of the night my hands and feet began to fester, and the pain made me sleepy again.

When I woke up again, I found myself lying in the hut.I moved my limbs and found that the pain has been relieved a lot, and the festered areas have been bandaged up.

"Boy, how do you feel?"

Looking for the sound, I saw a little old man in sackcloth, stroking his snow-white beard and looking at me.I wanted to stand up, but unexpectedly I felt top-heavy and fell directly to the ground.

As soon as the old man waved his hand, I felt a gust of air dragging my body and helped me up.I looked at the old man in surprise, but I didn't expect that he was also a master of hidden secrets.

"Senior Weird Doctor, thank you for saving your life." I cupped my hands at the old man and said.

The strange doctor smiled lightly and said, "Thank you for what, I just mixed the medicinal ingredients together. If you want to thank, thank your master. He found the primer for the detoxification medicine for you."

At this time, Gao Liang just walked into the hut. When I saw him for the first time, I immediately stayed where I was.It just disappeared overnight, and Gao Guang's hair and beard turned into snow-white.

"Master, your hair..." I felt sore for a while. In order to kill the monsters, Gao Liang must have opened more seals, which caused his life to pass so quickly.

Gao Liang scratched his hair, and said nonchalantly: "What's the matter, I've wanted to dye it white for a long time. Most of the heroes in the TV series have white hair, as free and easy as me, haha."

Hearing this, I also laughed in agreement.Smiling and laughing, I turned around so that Gao Liang could not see my tears streaming down.

In this life, I owe Gao Liang too much.For me, Gao Liang did not know how much he sacrificed.

During the few days of recuperation in the hut, I found that I and the strange doctor had a similar taste, and the two chatted happily.Once Gao Liang went hunting, I specifically asked him about his physique.The strange doctor just sighed, and said: "Your master has many secrets. I only know that his physique is the same as that of an old man who is five or sixty years old. If he continues to be overdrawn like this, he will probably die of old age."

Hearing this, I hurriedly grabbed the strange doctor's hand and asked, "Grandpa strange doctor, do you know how to change this situation?"

The strange doctor touched his beard, frowned and said: "There is a solution. As long as he doesn't overdraw, his physique will slowly recover, but it is absolutely impossible to reach the best. To completely cure his problems, the only way is to find A treasure of heaven and earth."
