Chapter 116: Internal Force Lost
Zhong Changzai placed one hand on Meng Po's wrist, and the other hand stroked the few mustaches on his chin. Her skin was no longer pale and transparent, but ruddy and bloody. Meng Po's breathing also became clear, even and powerful.
Zhong Changzai looked surprised, let go of the hand that was taking the pulse, stood up, and said, "How is this possible?"
Ling Quanfei said, "What's the matter, Doctor Zhong?"
Zhong Changzai shook his head and said, "This... It's incredible. ”
Ling Quanfei didn't speak, he understood Zhong Changzai's mood, when he met Meng Po yesterday, Zhong Changzai had already concluded that she had little hope, what else could make him so surprised except that Meng Po had been saved?
Zhong Changzai turned his head and asked: "I have seen a lot of strange things in the world, and I have also seen a lot of incurable diseases, but this is ......."
Ling Quanfei seemed to be a little proud in his heart and said, "Doctor Zhong, is Meng Po's illness cured?"
Zhong Changzai's eyes suddenly lit up and asked, "Who saved her?"
Ling Quanfei listened to his tone, and it seemed that Meng Po was saved, so he breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "Doctor Zhong, come and have a cup of tea." ”
Ling Quanfei gave Zhong Changzai a cup of tea, and the two sat at the table, but Zhong Changzai was not in the mood to drink tea at all, he only cared about one thing in his heart - who saved Meng Po.
Ling Quanfei didn't immediately satisfy his curiosity, because Qi Ying'er's affairs were inconvenient for others to know, so it could be said that he couldn't let too many people know. Ling Quanfei guessed in his heart that there were probably only three people in this world who knew that Qi Ying'er had inherited the Ten Swords Sect's founding patriarch Zunyang Zhenren's master-Wujie Master, himself and Qi Ying'er himself, and there might be another person who also knew it-Qi Ying'er's master, Mu Wuya.
This matter is not trivial, the Phoenix Sword Technique is a peerless study coveted by people all over the world, and it must not be exposed to the rivers and lakes casually, otherwise, Qi Ying'er will be in constant trouble.
Ling Quanfei obviously couldn't believe the doctor in front of him, Zhong Changzai.
"Doctor Zhong, in your opinion, how is this person's skills?"
Zhong Changzai was just about to sip tea, but immediately put down the cup after hearing this, and said: "I am a Jianghu Langzhong, all I have learned is medical skills, and I have very shallow opinions on martial arts, so I dare not comment on myself." ”
Ling Quanfei smiled: "Oh, it turned out to be rude, I forgot that Dr. Zhong is a doctor in the world, I'm sorry." Then, according to Dr. Zhong's eyes, how is this person's treatment?"
Zhong Chang heard that he was trying to test himself, so he snorted coldly.
Ling Quanfei had no intention of offending Zhong Changzai, but it was about Qi Ying'er, he had to be careful, and seeing that Zhong Changzai seemed to be angry, he hurriedly said: "Doctor Zhong, don't misunderstand, Ling didn't deliberately test Mr., it's just that it's not trivial at this time, I have to be careful." ”
Zhong Changzai was not a person with a small belly, and when he saw Ling Quanfei's honest expression, he knew that what he said was true, so he said: "Don't misunderstand Ling Daxia, I'm just curious about where the person who solved the Gu is sacred." To tell you the truth, when I saw this old man yesterday, she was already dying, and although I knew that the internal strength of Zhiyang Zhigang might be able to save her life, there was little hope. Because that Qi Gu has been forming in her body for a long time, when it encounters a True Qi that threatens her, she will dodge it, and it will be difficult to destroy it without a master of fifty years of profound skill, otherwise it will make the victim suffer even more painfully......"
Zhong Changzai paused, and seeing that Ling Quanfei was also full of surprise, he continued: "Today, I checked her pulse again, and found that the Qi Gu was not only gone, but also that there seemed to be someone else's true qi in her body to protect her heart and meridians, and that true qi has been helping her recover. I've been practicing medicine for many years but I've never seen anyone with this kind of ability, so I want to know who this master is?"
Listening to what Zhong Changzai said, to save Meng Po not only has to have fifty years of skill, but also can have the true qi in Meng Po's body afterwards to wish her recovery, is this something that a twelve or thirteen-year-old child can do? Impossible. Ling Quanfei was surprised, what secrets did Qi Ying'er have? He was very curious, but it was only curious, Qi Ying'er was an undug diamond to him, he hid it deep in the ground, but Ling Quanfei didn't want this diamond, he was just surprised by him.
Zhong Changzai saw that he was full of surprise, and thought that he was unwilling to tell him, so he got up and said, "In that case, Ling Daxia, I have taken my leave." ”
Ling Quanfei hurriedly said, "Doctor Zhong is slow. He sighed and said, "Doctor Zhong, I can trust you, please come with me." ”
Zhong Changzai was also puzzled why Ling Quanfei had changed his mind, was he going to lead himself to meet that master now? If Zhong Changzai knew that the master was just a twelve- or thirteen-year-old doll, would he even be shocked to drop his jaw?
Ling Quanfei glanced at Meng Po again before leaving the room, and saw that her breath was calm and even, so he was relieved, but he turned to anxiety in his heart - Qi Ying'er consumed so much true qi, I don't know if there is a big problem......
Zhong Chang followed Ling Quanfei closely behind the two of them through a long corridor and walked to a room.
Zhong Chang asked, "That person is inside?"
Ling Quanfei nodded, he gently pushed the door open, only to find that the door was bolted from the inside and could not be pushed open at all. He remembered that after he carried Qi Ying'er back to the house, he immediately closed the door and went out to take care of Meng Po, how could the door be bolted shut? Could it be that someone took the opportunity to steal into Qi Ying'er's room? Could it be that someone saw Qi Ying'er rescuing Meng Po?
Ling Quanfei shouted, "Oh no!"
Zhong Changzai said: "Don't worry about Ling Daxia, it's him who tied it inside." ”
Ling Quanfei knew that this was impossible, if it was really Qi Ying'er, what was the purpose of him closing the door, not to mention that he had consumed a lot of true qi, and it was difficult to wake up for a while. That's why he wanted Zhong Changzai to meet him and whether there was a way to recuperate him.
But how come it can't even open now? Who did it?
Ling Quanfei didn't dare to break into the door rashly, if there were really people inside, maybe they had left by now, then the traces he left behind were crucial traces to follow, and they must not be destroyed. He pulled out a dagger, thin and sharp, and he inserted it through the crack in the door, flicking the deadbolt inside little by little, and in a few moments, the door was opened.
But what Ling Quanfei and Zhong Chang saw was Qi Ying'er lying peacefully on the bed, Ling Quanfei walked forward quickly, and saw that he seemed to be asleep all along.
Ling Quanfei thought to himself: Is there no one in the house? No, there was indeed someone in the house, and this person pretended to be smart, the window that was originally opened was now closed, and he walked to the window again, and to his surprise, the window was not only closed, but also closed from the inside. While Ling Quanfei was thinking about it, Zhong Changzai walked up to Qi Ying'er and checked his pulse.
Ling Quanfei said, "Doctor Zhong?"
Dr. Zhong was fascinated by his eyes, and there were words in his mouth slightly, and he suddenly said, "Could it be that he is ......?"
Ling Quanfei nodded and said, "That's right, it's him." Dr. Zhong, how is he now?"
Zhong Changzai stood up and sighed: "I have lived for most of my life, and I know that there are countless capable people in the world, but I didn't expect that this twelve or thirteen-year-old child would have the power to return to heaven and save the dying......"
Ling Quanfei saw that he wanted to stop talking, so he asked anxiously, "Then is he in trouble now?"
Zhong Chang revealed regret in his eyes: "It's okay to save your life." ”
His words were like a thunderbolt, and Ling Quanfei was not a heavenly spirit in the middle, his face suddenly turned pale, and he said, "How can this be?"
"His qi is weak, and the qi in his body has not really taken shape, so he has consumed a lot, and now he is extremely weak, and one leg has entered the ghost gate. ”
Ling Quanfei looked at Qi Ying'er, stunned and speechless.
Zhong Changzai said again: "In such a situation, it is a miracle that he can survive." I felt that there was something in his body that was protecting his meridians, allowing his remaining true qi to keep wandering away to keep his mind, but I didn't know what it was, it seemed that someone had saved him. ”
"You're saying the door was closed because someone was rescuing him?"
"I don't know, if there really was another person in the room just now, whatever that person wanted, he didn't hurt him. ”
Ling Quanfei breathed a sigh of relief, but was still very worried—who was that person, and what did it have to do with Qi Ying'er?
He looked at Qi Ying'er and let go of his doubts first: "Doctor Zhong, how should he take care of it now?"
Zhong Changzai shook his head: "Alas, I didn't expect that I have been walking the rivers and lakes for decades, and I have encountered thorny things that I have never encountered one after another, and I don't know what to do." ”
"Don't even Dr. Zhong know what to do?"
Zhong Changzai said with a little guilt: "Although he has no worries about his life now, but his vitality has lost too much, and his internal strength has dissipated, I am afraid that he will no longer be able to practice martial arts in the future." ”
"I can't ...... anymore" Ling Quanfei's words choked in his throat, and being unable to practice martial arts anymore meant that Qi Ying'er would never be able to pick up the sword again. Ling Quanfei was full of guilt, regretting that he had let Qi Ying'er save Meng Po and let Qi Ying'er almost die, but now although he saved his life, what is the difference between this and asking for his life.
Ling Quanfei's heart seemed to be bleeding, and a knife of self-blame stabbed it hard, and then pulled it out over and over again, piercing it again and again, until it became full of holes.
Zhong Changzai saw the self-condemnation in Ling Quanfei's heart, but what could he say, comfort him? No, the most important thing now is to comfort Qi Ying'er, which is also his duty as a doctor.
"In any case, we must take care of him, if he can't survive, what if he has no internal strength? The most important thing at the moment is to take care of him, and tell him the news when he is healed...... At that time, it was better than this time. ”
Ling Quanfei knew it in his heart, but even if he told him at that time, would he be able to withstand the blow? He was ruined by himself! He asked himself: Don't you know that you shouldn't let a twelve or thirteen-year-old child take the risk? He was afraid that Qi Ying'er would not be able to accept this kind of consequence, and the more reason was that he could no longer bear this kind of consequence.
Ling Quanfei was like a fish in his throat, and his heart was now swept madly by morality, responsibility, remorse, and guilt. What should I do? For the first time, he lost his composure and his mind.
He has never hurt anyone, but now he has ruined a child's life.
Zhong Changzai couldn't stop sighing when he saw Ling Quanfei standing there as if he had lost his soul, and he couldn't tell who was right and who was wrong. Is Ling Quanfei at fault? No, he may be helping Qi Ying'er save Meng Po. His original intention was to help people, but now Qi Ying'er's internal strength has been completely lost, is he to blame? If Ling Quanfei stopped Qi Ying'er and didn't let him save people's lives, what would be the result?
The reason why people regret always comes from the fact that they produce all kinds of fantasies as a result. Once the results are obtained, people wonder if the other outcome is better.
Although Zhong Changzai does not understand the reason, he is now calm as before, and he can see the problem clearly and sort out the current situation.
Zhong Changzai said: "Ling Daxia, don't be anxious first, this little brother can survive because someone helped him protect his heart, it can be seen that that person is not trivial in terms of medical skills or skills, if he is also a doctor, I have to admit that Zhong is far inferior to his ability, if he is a martial arts master, I don't have to worry about whether that person has a way to let him regain his internal strength, because as far as I know, my knowledge and medical skills are far inferior to that person." The most important thing now is to take care of this little brother, as well as the mother-in-law who saved the little brother with all her life. ”
Ling Quanfei had to admit that he was out of control, Zhong Changzai was right, even if he regretted it now, it would be useless, even if he handed over his life, he couldn't save the status quo, what he had to do now was to stabilize the status quo.
Ling Quanfei said for a long time: "Thank you, Doctor Zhong." ”
Zhong Changzai said: "Why say thank you, Ling Daxia, I will often come over in recent days to see how this little brother is doing, Zhong did his best to make things undone, although this little brother is not very old, but he has a great heart of benevolence and righteousness, if there is such a person missing from the rivers and lakes, it will be a big pity! So I will try my best to save him." ”
Ling Quanfei was extremely moved, the first time he was so helpless, and the second time he felt the feeling of someone helping him—the first time was when he was able to escape with the sword left by Jiang Chuanhai in the first line of heaven—that feeling was so simple and crisp, but it could move him to tears.
"Thank you, Dr. Zhong!"
Two days later.
There was a sound of a car bell, and a black dot in the distance slowly grew larger, turning into a carriage, "Huh-", a strong man of fine iron took the reins of the horse, and the two horses immediately stopped, as if nailed to the ground.
The strong man with thick eyebrows and big eyes always smiled happily before speaking, and there was a silly anger in his laughter.
The strong man smirked, "Girl, here's it." ”
Then a girl with braids lifted the curtain of the car, poked her head out first, looked at the plaque on the inn, and said: "Yunhu Inn - yes, this is it!"
Then, she jumped out of the carriage, it turned out to be just a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, a pair of big eyes to look left and right, so smart and moving, a delicate nose like the best clay figurines pinched out, the small mouth under the nose is pink and tender, elf lovely. She looks like a little rabbit, her voice is as pleasant as a lark, if anyone has such a girl, it is more precious and precious than the pearl in the palm of her hand.
She shouted towards the inn, "Mr. Bai, Mr. Bai, where are you?"
