Chapter 6: Apprenticeship

Mu Wenbin forgot his fear, he was so hungry and thirsty that he immediately ran to the edge of the pool, held the water in his hand and drank it in a big gulp, the water in the pool was clear and sweet, like a jade liquid. When he had drunk his fill, he filled the kettle he had brought with him, and then he stood up to check his surroundings, which were very densely vegetated.

Behind a vine that he didn't know what to do, he found a cave, and as he courageously walked forward, he suddenly saw a man lying on his stomach at the mouth of the cave.

Suddenly saw a person lying on the ground, Mu Wenbin's face turned pale with fright, could it be a dead man? Or are you lost like yourself? He was bold and walked towards the man, and pushed him in front of him, and the man moved slightly, and it turned out that he was still alive, and it seemed that he had lost his way in the mountains like himself and ran here, and he fainted here for some unknown reason.

Mu Wenbin turned him over with all his strength, shaking him, trying to wake him up, but he only moved his fingers and chapped lips. Seeing that his face was pale and his lips were chapped severely, maybe he was thirsty, Mu Wenbin quickly opened the kettle and sent it to his mouth and fed him a little water. After drinking a few sips of water, the man's eyelids moved, and he slowly opened his eyes, his eyes looked at Mu Wenbin blankly, his lips moved and he wanted to speak, but maybe because he was too weak to make a little sound in his mouth, Mu Wenbin quickly fed him a few sips of water to drink, and then the man shook his head gently, meaning not to drink.

"How are you?" Mu Wenbin asked softly, but the man still didn't say a word, still looking at him blankly, and Mu Wenbin didn't know what to do at this time.

The man's eyes moved, and his eyes flickered a little when he saw the bamboo basket placed next to him, and then he kept staring, Mu Wenbin thought that he might want to eat those herbs to cure his illness, and then he went to the bamboo basket and hugged it, and took out the same medicinal materials in it and asked him if he wanted it, but he shook his head when he looked at it, and he shook his head after looking at more than a dozen medicinal materials, Mu Wenbin looked at the last one in the bamboo basket, and looked at it very distressed, it was a Ganoderma lucidum, which was the most precious medicinal material he had picked for so many days, as long as he sold it, He was able to buy a lot of delicious food for his grandparents and sister, so he was very reluctant, afraid that the person would take a fancy to it, but in the end he slowly took it out.

When he took out the Ganoderma lucidum, the person's eyes immediately moved, then he looked at Mu Wenbin, nodded slightly, and his lips moved. Mu Wenbin quickly hid the Lingzhi behind him, and didn't dare to look at the person's eyes, just like that, after a few minutes, he still slowly took out the Lingzhi, with tears in his eyes, his hands trembled and broke a small piece and sent it to the person's mouth, the person looked at him and then opened a small slit in his mouth, ate the Lingzhi into his mouth, and then chewed and swallowed it hard, and then closed his eyes again, and after a few minutes, his pale face had a hint of ruddy. The man opened his eyes again, staring at the lingzhi, Mu Wenbin broke off another piece and put it in his mouth, and he closed his eyes again after eating. In this way, there were fewer and fewer lingzhi left, and the person's face became more and more ruddy, until all the lingzhi was eaten. At this time, Mu Wenbin couldn't help but let the big tears roll out.

The man finally relented, moved his mouth lightly and said, "Thank you!" ”。

At this time, Mu Wenbin also cried enough, got up and helped the man sit up, and then helped him move to a tree and leaned against the tree, and then stared at the person without saying a word.

"Kid, there's still some food in that hole, go in and take it out." The man said.

Mu Wenbin silently got up and walked into the cave, the cave was not very big, only the size of two houses, and there was only a stone with a flat surface and some cushions paved with hay. There were five wild fruits on the stone that he didn't recognize, and Mu Wenbin carried them outside with his clothes, washed them with pool water and handed them to the man.

The man took one and said, "I'll have enough of this one, and you can eat the rest!" ”

Mu Wenbin was already hungry, and he unceremoniously picked up one wild fruit after another and ate it, the taste was very good, the juice was full and sweet, and after eating four in one go, his stomach immediately stopped feeling hungry. The man closed his eyes again after eating the wild fruit.

At this time, Mu Wenbin began to look at the person carefully, about fifty years old, his hair was unkempt and slightly gray, his cheeks were thin, he had a goatee, he was wearing a gray robe, a silver-white ring on his hand, and straw sandals on his feet. It looks very eye-catching, and it is definitely not from the village.

"Are you lost too?"

"No, I live in the mountains."

"Are you a savage?"

"No, I'm a god."

"Are you really an immortal? Did I save you? ”

"Yes, I am really a god, and you saved me."

"Wow, then I saved the gods. Doesn't it mean that immortals can't die? Why were you lying here just now? ”

The man didn't answer, slowly opened his eyes and looked at Mu Wenbin, and then asked, "Are you willing to worship me as a teacher?" ”

"Worship you as a teacher? Can you teach me a doctor? Mu Wenbin said excitedly.

"Teach you a doctor? Do you want to study medicine and become a doctor? The man said.

"Well, I want to learn medicine, a few days ago many people in our village got sick, but there were no doctors in our village, and many people died in the end" Mu Wenbin said excitedly, but he was a little sad in the back: "My parents also died!" ”

"As long as you worship me as a teacher, I can teach you medical skills, very powerful medical skills, do you want to learn?"

"I want to learn, I am willing to worship you as a teacher"

"Then you kneel down and kowtow to me, even if you are apprenticed"

Mu Wenbin immediately knelt down and kowtowed to him a few times, coughing very hard, and his forehead was broken.

"Hahaha, good apprentice, hurry up." The man stroked his beard with his hand and said with a smile to help Mu Wenbin up. Then he asked, "Good boy, what's your name?" ”

"Master, my name is Mu Wenbin, and I am eight years old this year. Master, what's your name? ”

"What's my name? Hehehe, it's been too long, I forgot what my name is, you just call me master. ”

"Just call you master? All right. When will you teach me medical skills?"

"It's getting late now, and when you come here tomorrow, I'll start teaching you again."

"Uh-huh, but master, I'm lost and can't find my way back to the village."

"Hahaha, put it down, and send you back for the teacher."

"Thank you, master."

The master got up, took Mu Wenbin's hand, and the two walked slowly along the mountain road. I don't know why there was no way at all when I came, but now such a path suddenly appeared. Soon they walked out of the deep mountains, looking at the familiar village in front of them, Mu Wenbin knew that he had walked out.
