Xie Li gave Doctor Bai a look that was hard to describe.
This old man not only likes to take others as apprentices, but also likes to be someone else's apprentice?
"No need, I don't like taking on apprentices." Xie Li felt goosebumps rising on his skin. Being called "master" by someone so old felt strange.
Doctor Bai: "If you take me as your apprentice, I guarantee you can walk around with impunity in most parts of China!"
He initially felt it was a bit embarrassing to acknowledge Xie Li as his master, but now he was somewhat dissatisfied.
Xie Li refused to accept him as an apprentice; did that mean he didn't recognize his medical skills? This wouldn't do!
The White Doctor's competitive spirit was completely aroused, and he was eager to get Xie Li to accept him as a disciple.
"By the way, don't you like medicinal herbs? We also have an unlimited supply of all kinds of top-grade medicinal herbs, so you can practice alchemy to your heart's content and have a great time!"
Xie Li: "..."
"Thank you, but no need. I don't like making medicine." If her family hadn't been so poor when she was a child, she wouldn't have thought of making medicine to cure her illness.
Doctor Bai found it hard to believe; with such excellent alchemy skills, how could she possibly dislike alchemy?
However, he roughly understood that Xie Li really didn't want to take on any disciples, and Doctor Bai felt somewhat hurt.
At this moment, He Jingxuan, who was lying on the bed, suddenly coughed lightly, as if struggling to wake up.
Only then did Doctor Bai remember that he had come to see a doctor. He quickly stepped forward, grabbed He Jingxuan's wrist, and pushed a gentle internal force into He Jingxuan's body.
A moment later, he released He Jingxuan's arm and said strangely, "Strange, when this young master He was a child, his internal energy was scattered and he was in danger of exploding and dying. How come his internal energy has been straightened out now?"
He looked up at Xie Li, "Little friend, was it you who helped him regulate his internal energy?"
On the one hand, he felt it was impossible. It was true that Xie Li's medical skills were far superior to his, but Xie Li was just a minor girl.
He Jingxuan's internal energy was cultivated over several decades. Over the years, he had tried to nourish his body with medicinal herbs, absorbing some of that internal energy, but this only treated the symptoms, not the root cause.
If he cannot dissipate this internal energy before adulthood, he will eventually explode and die.
Only those who have practiced ancient martial arts for decades can achieve this.
Xie Li nodded: "I just had a fight with him."
It was only during the fight that she realized He Jingxuan's problem. No wonder he looked like a spirited young man, but had such a violent temper and was always thinking about fighting with people.
Therefore, while unilaterally beating He Jingxuan, in order to avoid leaving evidence of her assault, she conveniently channeled her internal energy into his dantian.
Unexpectedly, He Jingxuan also had problems with his meridians and was unable to withstand the strain, vomiting blood and fainting.
Actually, he had fainted, but over the years he had become exhausted and this was bound to happen sooner or later; his body needed to recover.
"Oh, right, I just fed him a pill."
Doctor Bai asked eagerly, "What kind of pills?" His eyes gleamed with anticipation. If Xie Li had refined them, they must be good stuff.
He really wanted to take one or two to go back and study them carefully.
Xie Li casually said, "I was burned in a forest fire last time, so I just casually made this for myself to eat. It doesn't even have a name."
He paused, then added, "The last one is gone."
The doctor couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
"No wonder. His meridians have been greatly nourished and widened, making it easier for him to cultivate ancient martial arts in the future."
Doctor Bai stood up. "It's his good fortune to have met you. If it were me, I could at most just dissipate the internal energy within him."
