493: Chapter 0495: Detoxification Recovery
Shen Congwen, Tang Xin, and Jian Chunqiu searched the Beishan mountains for a long ti without discovering anything, and finally had no choice but to descend the mountain.
Coincidentally, at the foot of the mountain they encountered those Japanese again.
These people had tried to steal the Earth Ganoderma multiple tis and almost destroyed it last ti, Shen Congwen already deeply detested them.
Yet, he was no match for these people, harboring a sense of powerlessness and frustration within.
“Mr.
Shen, you should be careful, we’ll be visiting you again,” Yamamoto Buki scoffed lightly, disdainfully glancing over at Jian Chunqiu who was beside Shen Congwen.
He ca rushing back yesterday, only to miss the chance for a frontal confrontation with this man.
Shen Congwen pursed his lips tightly and humd lightly, “Rest assured, I will never let you succeed.”
Yamamoto Buki clicked his tongue, “Then let’s wait and see.”
Brother Yamamoto stepped forward to stop Yamamoto Buki, throwing him a glance, “Don’t act rashly!”
Yamamoto Buki scoffed at Shen Congwen, he surely would seek revenge for his second brother!
After these Japanese left, Tang Xin spoke sowhat indignantly, “These people are way too arrogant!
To be so presumptuous on our turf!”
Shen Congwen humd and took a deep sigh, “If only I knew martial arts, I would definitely go all out to confront these people!”
It’s truly aggrieving to hold back like this!
Jian Chunqiu clicked his tongue, “Enough, stop talking big here.
Isn’t it finally all up to ?”
“…” Shen Congwen and Tang Xin exchanged a speechless look at Jian Chunqiu.
How could this person be…
so heedless!
This day was undoubtedly the most torturous for Chu Ge and Huo Tianqian.
When they crawled out of the sulfur hot spring, their bodies felt as though they had been smashed by a giant hamr, the pain unbearable.
Chu Ge knew that it was the effect of the combined dicinal bath and sulfur bath forcing the toxins out of their bodies, which was tantamount to deeply scraping off a layer of poison from inside out.
That day, Chu Ge didn’t et Master Guangde until they climbed out of the sulfur hot spring, only encountering him at the dining table.
Chu Ge and Huo Tianqian sat there as if they were drained, with the pain in their bodies not yet subsided, not even having the strength to pick up chopsticks.
Seeing their condition, Master Guangde chuckled, “How are you two feeling now?”
Huo Tianqian waved his hand, “I feel like I’m about to die.
It was already painful yesterday, but at least I could endure that…”
At this point, the child sneered disdainfully, interrupting him, “Clearly you couldn’t hold on and jumped out of the hot spring.
If it wasn’t for , you’d have to soak for another two hours!”
Huo Tianqian’s lips curved slightly.
This brat really doesn’t give him any face!
Huo Tianqian coughed lightly, masking his embarrassnt, “Today’s pain is threefold compared to yesterday’s, it feels as if my body has been remolded.”
Hearing that the pain would be worse tomorrow, he was really worried that he couldn’t bear it.
Chu Ge nodded slightly.
The pain he experienced today was three tis more intense than any he had felt before.
It was almost too much for him to bear; he truly didn’t know if he could make it through tomorrow.
Master Guangde smiled, “Today is just a phase.
Tomorrow is the critical period.
I have also prepared a hot spring for you in the ice cave.
Tomorrow before the bath, I will perform acupuncture on you so that your bodies can have so capacity to endure it.”
Chu Ge gave a slight nod, speaking in a very weak voice, “Thank you, Master.”
“No need to be polite, my nephew.”
After saying this, Master Guangde left with the child.
Tonight’s dinner they prepared for them was still wild rabbit, but there was sothing new.
Huo Tianqian picked up his chopsticks and poked it, “What is this black thing?”
Chu Ge shook his head slightly, he didn’t know what it was, and moreover…
he could sll a burning scent.
At this mont, the child who had already left suddenly turned back, leaning on the door and said cheerfully, “This is Earth Ganoderma.
My master asked
to prepare it for you, and I made it myself.”
Upon hearing that it was Earth Ganoderma, Huo Tianqian imdiately grew eager to try it, but then he rembered that it was made by a ten-year-old child, and his stomach began to resist the idea.
He coughed lightly and looked at Chu Ge curiously, “Mr.
Chu, shall we give it a taste?”
Chu Ge gave a slight nod, picked up his chopsticks but hesitated to go on.
He glanced at the child and t those eyes filled with spiritual energy and expectation, feeling reluctant to disappoint him.
Chu Ge moved his chopstick, picked up a piece, and placed it in his mouth.
A bitter taste imdiately spread out in his mouth…
Chu Ge imdiately wanted to spit it out, but just as he was about to open his mouth, he heard the child shout loudly, “Don’t spit it out!
This will help you break through your barriers tomorrow.”
Breakthrough?
Today, during his dicinal bath, Chu Ge indeed felt a force crashing within his body.
He knew that the effects of the dicinal and sulfur baths were taking place.
Whether he could break through the barrier tomorrow was also the key to whether he could restore his martial arts.
So when he heard the child say Earth Ganoderma would help break through the barrier tomorrow, he forcefully swallowed down the Earth Ganoderma he was about to spit out.
Seeing Chu Ge eat, Huo Tianqian also bravely took a big bite, and a paste-like taste with a hint of earthiness imdiately spread in his throat.
But Huo Tianqian bore it, forcibly making himself swallow the Earth Ganoderma.
This way, Chu Ge and Huo Tianqian finished off the entire plate of burnt Earth Ganoderma with pained expressions.
After finishing, Chu Ge asked with so confusion, “Child, does the Earth Ganoderma have to be burnt like this to work?”
The child had a triumphant smile on his face, shaking his head lightly, “Not at all, I just got carried away playing and forgot to watch the fire, overcooking it a bit.”
After saying this, he scampered away.
Chu Ge and Huo Tianqian watched his receding figure in silence, the urge to catch him and give him a good beating nearly overwhelming!
The child returned to Master Guangde’s room and saw that Master Guangde was deeply engaged in studying the Heart Sutra that Chu Ge had brought.
This book wasn’t supposed to make people go astray, but Chu Ge practicing it almost did.
What went wrong?
He really needed to study it.
The child ca in, saw that Master Guangde was busy, and sat down quietly next to him, just watching him.
Master Guangde felt his gaze, looked up with a light smile, and asked softly, “Does the child have sothing to ask?”
The child nodded, “Master, can you really help them detoxify and restore their martial arts tomorrow?”
When the child asked this, his tone carried a faint sadness.
