Chapter 142 Ancient Version of Poor Little One 27
"Master, please take a rest for a while."
Doctor Yue waved his hand and said, "Don't think I'm weak, old man. I've also learned Kung Fu, but I don't have much talent like your master. Your master said that I used all my brains in medicine, and nothing else."
"I see that you have never learned internal martial arts?" He has observed this along the way and it seems that his young disciple's martial arts ability is average!
"Hehe, did you see that? Yes, I learned external martial arts." They don't have internal force or anything like that. They rely on their strong physique and mental strength to fight.
"When we get there, Master will teach you your master's internal martial arts. When combined with your external martial arts, Master won't have to worry if you want to go out in the future."
He could see that his little disciple was not a person who would stay at home, and he would have to move around a lot in the future.
Master, have you seen that, although I am not good at martial arts, I have accepted a young disciple who is very good at martial arts. Don't worry, your legacy will be inherited by someone now.
Doctor Yue has many disciples, but none of them is interested in martial arts. He does not force his disciples to learn martial arts, and the results will definitely not be good if they force them to do so. So why bother?
I thought that my master's kung fu would be passed down to him, but I didn't expect that he would take in a disciple who was outstanding in both martial arts and medicine when he was very old.
After he returns, he will definitely go to his master's grave and have a good chat with him. His master will definitely be very happy to hear it.
"Thank you, Master. Are you really okay?"
Doctor Yue waved his hand and headed straight up the mountain.
Qu Nannan shook her head. This was also a stubborn old man.
He quickly carried all the things on his back and walked beside his master to prevent any danger. He also hunted some pheasants and rabbits to add to the dishes. Doctor Yue also picked a lot of herbs along the way. He taught while picking herbs. He was definitely a good and responsible master.
It was already dark when the two of them finally reached the village.
Doctor Yue walked through the long and narrow passage and saw the valley suddenly opening up in front of him. In the afterglow of the setting sun, he was amazed at the thriving scene before him.
"This place is great. It has a good location and is hidden. It is the best place to hide even in troubled times. The temperature here is more comfortable than outside. Seeing this makes me want to live here."
He really likes this kind of peaceful life. Why not consider retiring early? I wonder if his disciple's village will welcome him to live here for a long time?
"If you like, you can live here. I also have a house, so you have a place to stay." If a doctor could live in the village, the villagers would happily hold a banquet to celebrate.
"When I have spent enough time outside, I will come here to retire. I wonder if the villagers will object?"
"No, don't forget that you are a doctor. You are popular wherever you go."
Especially in a secluded village like theirs, where there is no one who can treat a disease in the whole village, if you get sick you can only bear it. If a decent doctor could come and live here, everyone would welcome him, so why would they object?
"Nannan, you're back. Come to my aunt's house for dinner tonight?" A village woman happened to see Qu Nannan and greeted her warmly. She also didn't seem surprised to see the old man next to Qu Nannan.
"Hello, Aunt Xiuhua. I won't go over to eat. I brought my master back with me. I want to say hello to the village chief first."
"Okay, go quickly," Aunt Xiuhua muttered to herself, could this old man be Nannan's martial arts master? He doesn't look like a hermit.
Everyone greeted him warmly along the way, and Dr. Yue liked this place even more. The people here looked simple and warm. It was much easier to get along with them than those people outside who had their eyes turned and their minds turned.
"Grandpa Village Chief, I'm back. I brought my master to see you."
When the village chief came out of the house, he saw Qu Nannan supporting an old man with gray hair and beard, and hurried to greet them.
"You are here, come in and sit down. You can just live in the village from now on. The people in our village will definitely take good care of you."
The village chief thought that this old man was the master who taught Qu Nannan since she was a child. All the children in the village had learned martial arts from Qu Nannan, so they were considered half his apprentices. Since they had received the grace of others' teaching, wasn't it right for them to follow and respect their master?
As soon as Qu Nannan saw the village chief's attitude, she knew that the man had misunderstood her: "Grandpa Village Chief, this is my new master, the one who taught me medical skills. He is a very famous old doctor in the city. You know Xiancaotang, right? He is the owner of Xiancaotang."
The village chief was a little embarrassed that he had recognized the wrong person, but when he heard that it was the old doctor from Xiancaotang in the city, he became more enthusiastic. Although they had never been to Xiancaotang, they had heard about the kindness of the old doctor of Xiancaotang, and his good deeds for the poor people were worthy of respect.
"Oh, it's Doctor Yue. Please come in and have a rest. You haven't been home for a few days, Nannan. Go back and pack up first. I'll take care of Doctor Yue."
"Okay, I'll trouble you, Grandpa Village Chief. I'll go back and pack up before coming to pick you up. Master, you can rest here first. I haven't been home for many days, and the house may be covered in dust. I'll come and pick you up after I've packed up."
Qu Nannan took out a wild rabbit and a pheasant from the basket behind her and said, "Grandpa Village Chief, I caught these on the way. I'll give you some extra dishes tonight."
The village chief took it without hesitation: "Okay, I'll take it. Go back and clean up. Don't cook dinner. Come and eat here."
"That's fine. I just remember I have a jug of wine. I'll bring it over later. You can have a couple of drinks with my master."
The village chief grinned and said, "That's great. I've been thinking about this drink."
Qu Nannan thought about having dinner here in the evening so she took out a rabbit and a pheasant. There were many people in the village chief's family and the pheasants were not big. If she only gave them one, it would not be enough, so she might as well make more so that everyone could enjoy a satisfying meal.
Doctor Yue did not interrupt, but looked around. He said that the houses were well built. The main structure was made of wood, and yellow mud was applied on the wood, which was strong and warm.
The yard is big enough, and there are a lot of vegetables planted in the front and back yards, which makes it convenient to eat.
Just now, I looked along the way and found that the villagers here are warm and hospitable, and the environment is really good. There is a river in the middle of the valley, and the flat terrain is suitable for farming. The lush vegetation proves that the land here is fertile enough.
