Chapter 52: The medical fairy's father's martial arts are invincible in the world!
Si Yuan looked at his current body inconspicuously. The original owner was just an ordinary hunter in this remote mountain village. He knew a little bit of kung fu and was good at hunting, so the original owner's living conditions were not bad. At least he could eat meat every day. The original owner was also tall and strong, with good looks. He was already an outstanding figure in this small mountain village.
Now the original owner has married a wife with his savings, but his wife died of childbirth complications, leaving behind a sickly daughter. The original owner works hard hunting every day to earn money for his daughter's medical treatment, and he still loves this only daughter very much.
The original owner's only daughter was only weak because her mother had a difficult delivery and she was kept in her womb for a long time. In fact, she could still be alive and well with proper care. With the original owner's ability to make money, he could support this daughter.
But unfortunately, when the original owner's daughter was young, the village where the original owner lived was massacred by the so-called outlaws. Only the original owner's daughter survived because she was hidden in the firewood pile by the original owner.
After the murderer left, a miraculous doctor passed by, smelled the blood and stench of corpses, and discovered the bloodbathed village.
This miraculous doctor was helpless in this matter. He could only help the villagers collect the bodies. After all, he knew that if the bodies were not buried in time, plague would easily break out under the scorching sun.
So when this miraculous doctor was collecting the body of the original owner, he found the original owner's daughter, who was still alive, hiding in the firewood pile. He took the girl home and raised her, naming her Fuling.
Poria cocos is a medicinal herb that can promote diuresis and reduce swelling, strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness, which is in line with a doctor's naming preference.
When Fuling grew up, she showed great talent in medicine. The legendary doctor was very surprised and accepted her as his disciple and passed on his skills to him.
But unlike the legendary doctor who had traveled around the world and was not curious about the outside world, Fuling had no memories of her childhood. She had been living in seclusion in the valley with her master, and would occasionally go down the mountain with her master to provide free medical treatment or purchase daily necessities. In the secluded valley, besides her master, the only people around her who could talk to her were her master's medicine boy Huang Bai and the maid Sanqi bought by her master to take care of her.
Phellodendron chinense and Panax notoginseng are also medicinal materials. Phellodendron chinense can clear away heat and dampness, relieve itching and detoxify; Panax notoginseng can stop bleeding, disperse blood stasis, reduce swelling and relieve pain.
Since she could remember, all the people and things Fuling had come into contact with were related to medical herbs. She was very curious about other people and things she had never seen before.
If what happened next had not happened, Fuling would never leave her master even if she was curious about things in the outside world.
But in the original plot, how could Fuling, as a cannon fodder female supporting role, have no role at all?
One day, Fuling accidentally saved a person while collecting herbs in the mountains. This person was the male protagonist Bai Junting in the original plot.
Bai Junting is the son of the leader of the martial arts world. While traveling around the world with his childhood sweetheart Ye Qingqing, he accidentally met the supporting actor Li Zhengyun.
Li Zhengyun is actually the son of the leader of a cult. Because of his unruly personality and love of freedom, he does not want the position of the cult's young master that his father wants to force on him, so he abandons his protectors and runs away to travel the world. He accidentally meets the heroine Ye Qingqing, and through Ye Qingqing he meets the hero Bai Junting.
Logically speaking, Li Zhengyun, the young master of the demon cult, should be a villain, but he is an important male supporting role on the righteous side of the heroine and the heroine in the original plot.
Because Li Zhengyun is a typical affectionate knight supporting actor. After he fell in love with Ye Qingqing, he found out that Ye Qingqing liked his childhood sweetheart Bai Junting, so he decided to take a step back as long as he could protect the happiness of his sweetheart. Therefore, he cares more than anyone else whether Ye Qingqing can marry Bai Junting, and any third party who wants to interfere between Ye Qingqing and Bai Junting will be secretly eliminated by him.
The original owner's daughter Fuling fell in love with the male protagonist Bai Junting because she saved him while Bai Junting was recuperating. Bai Junting also saw that she had excellent medical skills and coaxed her to leave with him.
Although Fuling liked Bai Junting, she didn't like him enough to leave her master for him, so after some hesitation, she decided to reject him.
But on the eve of her rejection of Bai Junting, the members of the Demon Cult who were hunting Bai Junting came over and without hesitation started a massacre to kill everyone else in the valley. Fuling's master, the medicine boy Huang Bai, and the maid Sanqi who grew up with her all died tragically at the hands of the Demon Cult members.
If the supporting actor Li Zhengyun and the heroine Ye Qingqing had not arrived in time, and Li Zhengyun had shown his token as the young master of the Demon Cult and drove away the cult members, the protagonist Bai Junting, whose injuries had not yet healed, would have had to die under the siege of the Demon Cult members.
After Li Zhengyun's identity was exposed, Bai Junting realized that he was being hunted by the Demon Cult because he was followed by a young leader of the Demon Cult. After those Demon Cult members who came to find Li Zhengyun found Li Zhengyun, they also discovered Bai Junting's identity as the son of the enemy's leader, and decided to get rid of Bai Junting.
Bai Junting was originally very dissatisfied with Li Zhengyun for implicating him, but after Li Zhengyun made some remarks like "I also think the style of the Demon Cult is not good and I don't want to be associated with it, so I left the Demon Cult. I sincerely want to be your friend", and with Ye Qingqing's help in mediating, Bai Junting actually forgave Li Zhengyun and accepted him again.
But Fuling, who hated the Demon Cult because of the death of her master and Huang Bai Sanqi, could not suppress her hatred towards Li Zhengyun, the young master of the Demon Cult. However, she also knew that she was now an orphan with no one to rely on, and could not show any hatred at all. She could only rely on Bai Junting.
So she agreed to leave with Bai Junting.
Fuling, who regarded Bai Junting as her last life-saving straw, would occasionally mention her gratitude to Bai Junting for saving her life, hoping that Bai Junting would remember her kindness to him and not abandon her.
She did not continue to like Bai Junting because of her love affair with him. She just wanted to use Bai Junting to deal with the Demon Cult after learning that he was the son of the leader of the martial arts world.
Bai Junting was a grateful person and was very caring and attentive to Fuling, his savior. However, this bothered Ye Qingqing. Ye Qingqing felt that Fuling was trying to come between her and Bai Junting and regarded her as a love rival, so she disliked her in every way.
Fuling could only depend on Bai Junting, and of course she was unwilling to show weakness to Ye Qingqing. Ye Qingqing did not dare to attack Bai Junting's savior, but she often complained to Li Zhengyun.
So Li Zhengyun secretly killed Fuling, just like he had dealt with Ye Qingqing's other rivals in love before.
Li Zhengyun said that he didn't want to continue staying in the Demon Cult to do evil, but at the same time he treated human life as worthless, and fully demonstrated the Demon Cult's style of killing innocent people. He also put on the cloak of true love for the heroine, and transformed himself into the heroine's affectionate guardian, which moved the heroine so much that even though she knew that Li Zhengyun secretly helped her kill those rivals, she turned a blind eye to him.
However, since the two sides have different positions, conflicts are inevitable. The plot in this kind of martial arts world always includes the battle between good and evil. The hostility between the leader of the martial arts world and the leader of the evil cult seems to be an unshakable plot setting, and even Bai Junting, the son of the leader of the martial arts world, and Li Zhengyun, the son of the leader of the evil cult, have become hostile.
But if Li Zhengyun really became hostile to the male and female protagonists, he would not be a passionate male supporting character, but at least a passionate villain.
So when the righteous people led by the leader of the martial arts world went to war with the Demon Cult, Li Zhengyun directly stabbed his biological father, the Demon Cult leader, in the back and told Ye Qingqing and Bai Junting about the weakness of his father's martial arts, allowing Bai Junting to defeat the Demon Cult leader in public. The Demon Cult was defeated and suffered heavy losses.
But the Demon Cult has been able to exist for so many years without being wiped out, so it must have a very powerful foundation. It has a large number of followers, and even if they all surrender and wait to be killed, the people on the righteous path will never be able to kill them all.
So the righteous people held a meeting to discuss it. Bai Junting suggested that Li Zhengyun, who was willing to lead the Demon Cult to reform, should inherit the position of the Demon Cult's leader and restrain the Demon Cult's followers.
After Li Zhengyun came to power, he became the new overbearing leader, but as a leader he neither stopped those followers from killing innocent people nor improved the cult's customs. Every day he just stayed by the side of the heroine Ye Qingqing to support her and act as her guardian angel.
As for the title of Demon Cult Leader, it may be to make people think that every flower-guarding messenger around the heroine is a Demon Cult Leader, which will make people look up to the heroine.
On the day of Ye Qingqing and Bai Junting's wedding, Li Zhengyun gave Ye Qingqing the holy object of the Demon Cult as a wedding gift.
Anyone who sees him will have to praise him as a "good bootlicker".
The original owner's daughter Fuling was just an insignificant female supporting role from beginning to end, who was easily killed by the male supporting role Li Zhengyun. She didn't even occupy many words in the article.
Si Yuan carefully watched and pondered the original plot several times, and couldn't help but wonder if the male protagonist Bai Junting and the supporting actor Li Zhengyun were really as simple as they appeared to be?
Bai Junting was being hunted by the Demon Cult. If Fuling hadn't rescued him, he would have died. After walking on the brink of life and death, could he really forgive Li Zhengyun who almost killed him?
If Bai Junting forgave Li Zhengyun under Ye Qingqing's persuasion just to stabilize Li Zhengyun and secretly planned to use Li Zhengyun to attack the Demon Cult, then his fatherly behavior of forgiving Li Zhengyun who almost killed him seems understandable.
Also, Bai Junting didn't seem to show any reaction after Fuling's death, and the original plot did not describe any investigation into Bai Junting's death. Perhaps Bai Junting was not surprised by Fuling's death.
Or maybe Bai Junting was secretly contributing to Fuling's death?
Fuling always mentions her life-saving grace, so Bai Junting couldn't help but feel resentful. After all, Fuling's master died at the hands of the Demon Cult. She wanted revenge and was hostile to Li Zhengyun. Did Bai Junting really not notice?
Bai Junting wanted to use Li Zhengyun to deal with the Demon Cult, so naturally he couldn't kill Li Zhengyun as Fuling wanted. He had to protect Li Zhengyun temporarily. Unfortunately, Fuling was his savior, and if she really asked for a reward, he would not be able to refuse for the sake of his reputation. So the best solution was to prevent Fuling from asking for a reward.
But Fuling was his savior, so he certainly couldn't repay her with evil. What he had done would inevitably leave traces, and for the sake of his reputation he couldn't do it himself.
Then he deliberately showed great care and concern for Fuling, and even revealed a bit of ambiguity. It was impossible for Ye Qingqing, who was very jealous, to turn a blind eye.
Ye Qingqing is hostile to Fuling, so Li Zhengyun, as Ye Qingqing's licker, will help Ye Qingqing get rid of his love rival.
Fuling’s death at the hands of Li Zhengyun has something to do with Bai Junting? Bai Junting could turn around and say that Li Zhengyun was worried that Fuling would seek revenge on him so he took the initiative, and that he had refrained from exposing Li Zhengyun in order to destroy the Demon Cult, and that he was considering the overall situation.
Afterwards, Li Zhengyun told Ye Qingqing the life secret of his biological father, which was equivalent to telling Bai Junting as well. Bai Junting and his father led the righteous people to defeat the Demon Cult. This just proved how brilliant and effective Bai Junting's plan to use Li Zhengyun to fight the Demon Cult was.
Even if it was to appease the remaining members of the Demon Cult and support Li Zhengyun to become the Demon Cult's leader, how much of a threat would a severely damaged Demon Cult pose to the righteous path?
Bai Junting ascended to the position of leader of the martial arts world with his huge prestige and fame. With a single wave of his arm, all the people in the martial arts world responded to his call and he became the uncrowned king of the martial arts world.
Judging from the results, the biggest beneficiary is Bai Junting.
Si Yuan had no choice but to conspire on Bai Junting's actions.
Just looking at the original plot, Si Yuan has no evidence to prove that these were all planned by the male protagonist Bai Junting, but just looking at who the final beneficiary is, there is nothing wrong with his conspiracy theory in this regard.
As for the male supporting role Li Zhengyun, maybe he has some intelligence, but it doesn't seem to be much. It may also be that his pure love brain occupies the high IQ position.
In Si Yuan's conspiracy theory, Li Zhengyun survived after being used by Bai Junting and was able to become the leader of the Demon Cult. He was most likely a puppet leader under Bai Junting's control.
After all, as the leader of the Demon Cult and the lapdog of the wife of the Martial Arts Alliance Leader, Bai Junting can completely use Ye Qingqing to control Li Zhengyun. As long as the Demon Cult is not destroyed, all the major sects in the martial arts world will have to continue to respect him as the Martial Arts Alliance Leader.
The fact that Li Zhengyun is still alive may be that Bai Junting is nurturing an enemy to protect himself.
The original plot ended with the wedding of Ye Qingqing and Bai Junting, so Si Yuan didn't know what would happen after the hero and heroine got married, but Si Yuan had some guesses in his mind.
The time point when Si Yuan traveled through time was exactly the day before the bandits came to massacre the village, so he arrived in time. If it was one day later, the original owner would have died.
Si Yuan returned to the original owner's home and visited the original owner's daughter Fuling.
Fuling, who is still a baby now, is already over one year old, but he is still as young as a baby of a few months old. He lies weakly on the bed, and even his cry sounds like a kitten.
Si Yuan felt the pulse of the child and his brows relaxed. Fortunately, the child was just weak and would be fine if he took good care of himself. In the original plot, this child was raised by that nameless miracle doctor, so he didn't believe that he couldn't raise the child himself.
But thinking of the original owner, Si Yuan asked the system: [Where is the original owner's soul? 】
Since the system crossed into this small world, it has been as quiet as a chicken, not daring to make a sound to attract the host's attention.
Because it knows that once the host travels through time this time, he will definitely know that what he told him before, "the original plot needs to advance the progress of the task to unlock it," was a lie.
In the first small world, it will wait until the task progress bar moves before transmitting the original plot to the host.
It was planning to use this method to motivate the host to complete the task as quickly as possible, but now that it has been exposed, it is too guilty to say a word.
Now hearing Si Yuan's question, without even mentioning the original plot, the system breathed a sigh of relief and replied in a low voice: [The original owner's soul was reincarnated. I let the original owner's soul see his final end. He voluntarily handed over his body just to save his child's life. The original owners of the previous two worlds were similar. The original owner of the first world wanted to save his own life, and the original owner of the second world wanted to save the lives of his entire family. They all voluntarily gave up their bodies to reincarnate. 】
Although Si Yuan didn't care whether it was possession or not, after all, the competition in the world of immortal cultivation was very cruel, and it was not uncommon for the strong to take over the body of the weak after their physical body was destroyed.
Having experienced so many years in the world of immortal cultivation, Si Yuan has of course developed the mindset of an immortal cultivator. He wouldn't be hypocritical and think that this was an act of taking over another's body and being unfair to the original owner.
But when he heard the system say that it was not a possession of the body and that the body was given up voluntarily by the original owner, he felt much more relieved. Of course, it was best not to have to bear the cause and effect of possession of the body.
Si Yuan noticed that the system's voice had become smaller and it was clearly feeling guilty. He immediately realized why it felt guilty.
In fact, Si Yuan had discovered as early as in the second world that the system might not have told the truth about unlocking the original plot. After all, the system of the second world directly transferred the original plot and the original owner's memories to him, and did not mention unlocking the original plot after the progress bar moved.
At that time, Si Yuan guessed that the system might be deceiving him, otherwise why would he fool the system without hesitation when he could fool it into signing the Avenue Contract?
The relationship between the system and the host is like the east wind prevailing over the west wind or the west wind prevailing over the east wind. Even though his system seems easy to fool because of its lack of experience, it is not without any schemes.
Before, Si Yuan had never let down his guard against the system because of its naive and easy-to-foolery behavior.
Seeing that the system was guilty, Si Yuan did not say anything and just handled it coldly, pretending not to know: [It’s good that it’s not a possession of the body. It turns out that the original owner was willing to give up his body and still had requirements. Why didn’t you tell me about the original owner’s requirements in the previous two worlds? 】
The system said as a matter of course: [Although they have made requests, we don’t have to complete them. And host, as long as you complete the task, their wishes will also be fulfilled! 】
