To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck

Chapter 86: Chapter 65: Healing Injuries and Taking a Master

Translator: 549690339

Indeed, Dr. Li was a divine doctor.

After Lao Gu invited him, this divine doctor identified Zhou Qing’s bone fractures as the work of a martial arts expert just by giving a quick examination.

Having experienced the Jianghu, Old Doctor Li deeply understood the principle that knowing too much could bring trouble onto oneself.

So, he only identified the cause of the illness without digging deeper.

After examining the bone injuries, the old divine doctor couldn’t help but say: “With twenty-one fractures all over his body, three of which are actually breaks, it would be a wonder if an older individual could survive. Fortunately, this young boy is lucky. His injuries were handled by a master when they occurred. Therefore, combined with his youth, there is hope for a complete recovery. ”

Lu Yuan, standing beside him, sighed in relief and quickly asked: “Ancient

Doctor, how long will it take for Xiaoqing to recover?”

Old Doctor Li smoothed his goat beard and said with a grin: “If it were someone else, even with treatment, it would take at least half a year. However, by some stroke of luck, treating wounds like these is my specialty.

I have a secret medicine blend that is administered orally once a day and

applied topically every three days.

With this dual approach, the young lad will be up and about in less than a hundred days.”

The Old Divine Doctor boasted about his remedy and then rubbed his hands together, his voice lingering: “However, this secret remedy is extraordinary in its effects, and naturally, the ingredients required are also quite precious.

The oral medication costs two silver tales per dose. The topical treatment is five silver tales per dose. A complete course of treatment lasts for one month and three courses will be required in total.

I wonder… ”

“No problem.”

As soon as Lu Yuan heard the doctor quote his price, he immediately accepted it. He then removed a prepared amount of silver from his pocket, took out eighty tales from it, and passed it on: “Let’s start with one course of treatment for now. Old Divine Doctor, please prepare the secret medicine.”

Although the price of one tale for the internal medication and five tales for the external one seemed astronomically high, the cost in practice would be eighty silver tales per month.

But consider Zhou Qing’s current condition?

A promising young man’s body is now full of severe fractures that may end up being completely incapacitating. If any mistakes are made, he might be crippled for life.

If it really is as Old Doctor Li said, that after using this secret medicine, he could return to his former state in a hundred days.

Then, even if the cost of three months of treatment is more than two hundred silver tales or even if it were to multiply tenfold, it would still be worth it to Zhou Qing.

In any case, Young Master Zhou is not lacking in money.

The savings he brought out from the Zhou family are worth more than three thousand silver tales, along with a dozen types of precious herbs. All these are of astonishing value.

Compared to the possibility of curing one’s-self for just over two hundred silver tales, it was an absolute bargain.

In fact, the quote from Old Doctor Li seemed cheap to Lu Yuan as well.

He was prepared to spend a large sum to cure Zhou Qing, but he didn’t expect that just over two hundred tales would be enough.

One might say that Changning County is truly a remote and impoverished place. Not only are the people poor, but the prices are equally humble.

‘ Alright then.”

Looking at Lu Yuan, who was readily handing out money, Old Doctor Li was momentarily stunned – regretting his underestimation of the man’s wealth and that he had quoted a lower price.

However, facing the education official, he didn’t dare renege on the agreement. He honestly took the silver and went to prepare the secret medicine.

Since it was a secret medicine, naturally, it was an unshared secret.

Therefore, it could not be prepared or prescribed in advance.

For the next month, whether Zhou Qing was taking the medicine orally or topically, Dr. Li personally supervised everything and wouldn’t delegate any part of the process to an outsider.

Even the dregs of the medicine, once boiled, he would handle himself.

He was cautious about the formula being leaked.

Seeing the old doctor leave, Lu Yuan turned around and looked at Zhou Qing lying on the bed, comforting him: “Xiaoqing, you heard it as well. Your injuries can be healed, and you will get better soon. Once you’re recovered, I’ll teach you martial arts.”

Zhou Qing nodded approvingly, his voice chocked up, “Thank you, Brother Lu.. no, thank you, Master.”

Since Lu Yuan was willing to teach him martial arts, naturally, he considered him as his disciple.

Therefore, according to the rules of this world, Zhou Qing had to regard Lu Yuan as his master and show his utmost honor and respect from then onwards.

Otherwise, how would he repay such a generous act?

Since Zhou Qing’s family ran a medical clinic, he understood this deeply and was genuinely grateful for Lu Yuan. Hence, every time he called him ‘master’, it was heartfelt.

“Good.”

When Lu Yuan heard someone call him ‘master’ for the first time, he was a little startled. But once he understood it, he couldn’t help but laugh: “Good disciple, you just focus on recovering. Once you’re healed, I’ll make sure to train you into a famous martial artist in Jianghu.”

He has a second-rate martial art, Cloud Palm, and a first-rate mental technique. If one could master both, they could barely enter the ranks of the first-rate of the martial arts world.

& a first-rate expert could dominate an entire city and claim the title of a well-known figure of Jianghu.

“Understood.” Zhou Qing, seeing Lu Yuan accept him, was also happy and shouted with a weak voice: “At that time, the disciple will not let down the master’s expectations.”

For a moment, the room was filled with an atmosphere of mentorship and respectful discipleship.

The treatment of Zhou Qing’s injuries was progressing rapidly.

The old divine doctor didn’t deceive Lu Yuan. After administering the secret medicine, Zhou Qing’s injuries saw significant relief within just three days.

Although he still had to stay in bed, he could already move his arms a little.

Seeing the efficacy of the treatment, Lu Yuan finally relaxed. Apart from daily check-ups on the recovery progress, he left everything to Old Doctor Li, focusing his energy on training himself.

When he had previously been on the run, Lu Yuan had spent most of his time traveling. However, during the evenings, he had still managed to dedicate two hours each day to cultivating his inner strength.

However, after a month, he hadn’t made much progress. He had only polished an acupoint he was working on to be more unified, bringing it a step closer to breaking through.

Having neglected his martial arts training for a month, now that he finally had some stability, he wanted to resume his old routine.

Lu Yuan returned to his regular schedule of practicing Cloud Palm for five hours each day. In addition to that, he devoted an extra hour each day to studying the Replenishing Qi Heart Sutra.

Although, according to the plan, he was still majorly focusing on Cloud Palm, the Replenishing Qi Heart Sutra was the next step after reaching the limit of Cloud Palm.

But since he had spare capacity now – unlike the ordinary people who could only train for two hours a day – he needed to use his talent to improve his strength as much as possible.

Therefore, Lu Yuan’s daily training time increased to six hours.

Spending half a day training in martial arts, his diligence probably ranked among the top in the community of immortals, right?

After all, many people who became immortals had no pressure on life expectancy, so they naturally decayed and ended up as a ‘salted fish’ (lazy).

Those immortals with consciousness and motivation like him should be the exceptions.

But it couldn’t be denied that this feeling of steadily and slowly enhancing his strength was rather fulfilling and satisfying..
