Chapter 467: Take Him as My Teacher

Sun Zhengrong left in the afternoon. Before he left, he talked with Uncle Lin for a long time. While their conversation was enjoyable, he was still worried about his son.

“You don’t have to worry,” Uncle Lin said. “As long as I’m here, the child won’t get hurt.”

“I’ll leave it to you,” Sun Zhengrong said.

“Uncle Lin, please tell me truth. Is it dangerous for my father to go back to Dao?” Sun Yunsheng felt that his father’s mood had been strange the past few days.

“He does have some things to deal with, but it’s not his first time tackling such a problem,” Uncle Lin replied. “It’s been like this for so many years, you know. Don’t worry. Your focus needs to be on curing your disease.”

Sun Yunsheng was still worried about his father, but he also knew that his worries could not make any difference.

If only I could help. Sun Yunsheng knew his father worked hard for him. He had gone to countless places and asked numerous doctors for medication. He knew who his father was. His dignity was important. He didn’t like to ask for help. Yet, had bowed many times for his son.

Sun Yunsheng always wanted to do something to help his father, but what could he do? Trading? He only knew a little. Plotting? He was rather inexperienced. Martial arts? His body was in no shape. Even when he recovered, his body wouldn’t be strong enough. He felt useless.

If only I could be like Doctor Wang. I should take him as my teacher!

It was not the first time that this idea came to mind. But, it had never been as strong as now. I’ll beg him tomorrow!

The next morning was a bit cloudy and really windy.

Sun Yunsheng brought up his idea to Uncle Lin.

“I want Wang Yao to be my teacher,” he said.

“What do you want to learn from him, martial arts?” Uncle Lin asked.

“Yes. I want to learn martial arts for now,” Sun Yunsheng said.

“It would be a great opportunity if he took you as his apprentice, no matter what you learn,” Uncle Lin said. “But, like what he said last time, he might not take you for now.”

“I want to try my luck,” Sun Yunsheng said.

“I’ll support you.” The old man clapped his shoulder.

As he came down from the hill, Wang Yao saw Sun Yunsheng waiting outside the clinic.

“What’s up? Do you feel uncomfortable?” he asked.

“No,” Sun Yunsheng replied as he knelt to the ground in front of him.

“What’s going on?” Wang Yao was shocked. “What do you mean by this?”

“Please, take me as your apprentice,” Sun Yunsheng said.

“You want to be my apprentice?” Wang Yao had not expected him to make this request.

“Yes,” Sun Yunsheng seriously replied.

“What do you want to learn?” Wang Yao asked.

“Martial arts,” Sun Yunsheng replied.

Wang Yao was silent a while after hearing his words. “But, why?”

“I want to help my father,” Sun Yunsheng said.

“Ha-ha… Uncle Lin also knows martial arts. Why not learn from him?” Wang Yao assumed that the old man also mastered martial arts.

“He said he’s less skillful than you,” Sun Yunsheng said.

“Sorry, I don’t plan on taking an apprentice right now.” Wang Yao refused him again.

“Then, I will keep kneeling here,” Sun Yunsheng said.

Wang Yao was embarrassed. It was like a movie or TV plot was happening to him in real life.

“Do you think it will work?” Wang Yao smiled as he looked at Sun Yunsheng.

Sun Yunsheng did not know what to say. He had thought of that before he came to the clinic. He had no better way to beg Wang Yao to take him as an apprentice. Additionally, his disease was in Wang Yao’s hand to be cured. He could only try the routine commonly found in tales.

“Back.” Wang Yao raised his hand. Sun Yunsheng felt that an intangible force raised him up.

It’s? Sun Yunsheng lost consciousness. His Qi and been released from the inside out. He did not regain his consciousness until Wang Yao opened the door and went into the clinic.

“Does it really exist?” Sun Yunsheng was in shock. Now more than ever he wanted Wang Yao to be his teacher. He decided to try one more time and knelt outside the door. The chilling wind roared and blew by him.

Most of the villagers had stayed at home and crouched on the heated stone bed chatting, watching TV or making a group to play poker. A few people liked to wander around outside. When they saw a person kneeling outside Wang Yao’s clinic, they were shocked.

What happened? Did he do something wrong? Did he have to kneel down to see doctor?

The village went closer to have a look. He saw it was the young man who had just moved to the village and built a new house. It was said that his family was rather wealthy. The car they drove was a Benz or Land Rover. He knew they often saw Wang Yao for treatment. Why does he kneel tonight?

“Lad, why are you kneeling here?” he asked.

“I…I want to take him as teacher,” the young man replied.

“Teacher? Who, Wang Yao?” the villager asked.

“Yes,” the young man replied.

“What for?” the villager asked.

Sun Yunsheng wanted to say martial arts but swallowed the words back. He shouldn’t speak it out. Instead, he replied, “To learn some skills.”

“Medical skills?” the villager asked.

Sun Yunsheng was silent.

“Ah, I only watched it on TV,” the villager said “It opened up my eyes today. How skillful is Fenghua’s boy?”

A slightly fat man walked toward them.

“Out for a walk?” The villager had met this man a few times. He knew he was a family member of the young man kneeling to the ground. “Ah, go have a look.”

“Yunsheng, come back home,” Uncle Lin said.

“Uncle Lin, I…” Sun Yunsheng’s words were immediately interrupted.

“Back.” Uncle Lin approached him, lifted him up and took him back home.

“Uncle Lin, I really want him as my teacher and to learn skills from him,” Sun Yunsheng said.

“Do you think this method might make Doctor Wang not like you?” Uncle Lin asked.

“But, I don’t have other way,” Sun Yunsheng said.

“Then, let things remain like what they are now until he change his mind,” Uncle Lin said.

“I…” Sun Yunsheng again was silenced.

“Enough of that,” Uncle Lin said. “I can teach you if you want to learn martial arts. Though I don’t know as much as Doctor Wang, it’s still enough to teach you. You might not want to listen to this, but if you want him as your teacher, you at least need to practice and get to my level. It can only be like this.”

Sun Yunsheng sighed. Again, he felt he was rather useless. “Uncle Lin, do you think I’m a troublemaker?”

“Why do you ask something like that?” The old man was shocked a little by the question.

“I was helpless even I wasn’t ill and my father was trapped in trouble,” Sun Yunsheng said.

“You’re wrong if you really think that.” Uncle Lin laughed. He then looked seriously at Sun Yunsheng and said, “You are pretty good, compared to your peers. Your father’s biggest expectation for you is to be happy and healthy. As for whether you could develop or expand his career, he does not think about such matters so much.”

“But, I will,” the young man solemnly replied.

The old man clapped his shoulder and laughed.

…

In Jing…

“Professor Su, can you check me again?” Lv Xian asked.

“Like what I’ve said before, you have completely recovered,” Su Changhe said with a smile. “You can take this report to other hospitals if you don’t trust me.”

He knew that Lv Xian had suffered from an odd disease and had found Wang Yao in the village because of his reference. He came again for a careful check after Wang Yao’s treatment. He was totally healthy now, completely recovered. Lv Xian apparently did not believe it.

“That’s not what I mean,” Lv Xian said.

“What did Doctor Wang say?” Su Changhe asked.

“He said I am healed,” Lv Xian replied. “All the poisonous insects were killed.”

“Then, it’s settled,” Su Changhe said. He remembered Wei Hai, who had the same symptoms but even more severe.

“OK. Thanks,” Lv Xian said.

“You’re welcome, and you should also thank Doctor Wang,” Su Changhe said.

Lv Xian was rather happy. He could not help jumping in the air when he left Su Changhe’s office.

The surrounding people who saw him gave him a weird look. Is he mad?

Lv Xian didn’t care about others’ thoughts and ideas. He was healed, which made him really happy. He needed to express his excitement. He returned home and told his wife. She was also happy, so she reserved a table to celebrate. It indeed deserved a great celebration!
