C2 Saved

Yuan Tianxing didn't know how long he had been unconscious before he slowly opened his eyes. Right now, he felt as if his entire body was falling apart, his chest, shoulders, thighs, and other parts were all in extreme pain and he was in a daze. He only knew that he was on the back of a person, or more accurately, an old man, because he saw a head of white hair.

"Tian Xing, ok …"

The two of them were already worried out of their minds. At first, the two of them thought that their son liked to play, but then Yuan’s mother became restless and the two of them followed the mountain road, looking for and calling out to each other. In front of them was an old man who was looking for them with a smile on his face.

"Are you two looking for me to carry the child on my back?" The old man's voice was sonorous and forceful.

Yuan’s father and Yue Shan walked closer and saw their unconscious son. The child's face was pale as he said: "May I ask what happened to my son?" The Yuan’s father asked anxiously, her voice was filled with anxiousness and worry, but the Yuan’s mother had already started to cry from the pain.

"He exchanged blows with a fierce tiger, was injured by it, and fainted because of exhaustion. I have already applied medicine on his wound and he is fine, but … "

The old man seemed to be hiding something, but he was halfway through his words. His words did not matter, but the Yuan’s mother still followed up anxiously.

"But what? Please explain it to my face. "

"Send the child home to rest first, I'll explain in detail later."

Seeing that the old man still had more to say, the Yuan’s father did not ask any further. He immediately brought the old man to his home and walked along the five li mountain road before finally arriving at his home.

Along the way, Yuan’s father had wanted to carry Yuan Tianxing on his back due to his worry for the old man's body, but he was rejected by the old man. After arriving at his house, he saw that the old man's expression did not change, and even his aura remained calm, as though carrying a child on his back while walking down the long and rugged mountain road was something insignificant.

The old man placed Yuan Tianxing on the brick bed, and then immediately looked at the arrangement of the grass hut with interest, as if he was waiting for a question. There was a stone table in the hut, and beside it were three stone stools, and on the table there was a teapot, which had long since lost its handle, and beside it were a few porcelain teacups, there were no other decorations in the house, it was extremely simple and crude. Yuan’s mother was a little uneasy, so he poured a cup of hot tea for the old man, and said: "It's just crude tea at home, please do not mind this old man!"

"It's fine."

The old man replied with a smile.

In fact, when Yuan Tianxing met the tiger, the old man was already in the forest not too far away, witnessing the entire process of his fight between the tigers. broke out in a cold sweat as he listened, as they couldn't believe that their ten-year-old son could actually kill a tiger with his bare hands, even though the price was not small.

"Old man, you said that you have applied medicine on my son's wound. However, from your tone, you seem to have more to say. Will there be any side effects?"

After hearing the elder's story, the Yuan’s mother asked anxiously.

The old man did not directly answer the question, but asked another question. "When the child was young, did he often fight with wild beasts?"

"This …"

Yuan’s mother did not immediately reply, her expression seemed to say that she was not too clear either, and at this time, Yuan’s father followed up, but her expression was also not so natural.

"That's right …" Children are very naughty, often playing alone in the forest, always come back injured, you know this mountain beast... Why do you ask? "

"Oh, so it's like that!"

For some reason, the elder felt that their words were flickering as if there was something hard to say. However, since this was someone else's family matter, he didn't think it was appropriate to ask.

When applying medicine to the child, I once checked the condition of his injuries, but found that there were many hidden injuries on his body, and these were additional injuries. Among them, the left knee cap and the shoulder were both injured because the injury had not completely recovered, and if I repeated the same thing over and over again, the hidden injuries would become more and more serious. If I didn't continue to treat him until a certain point, it would turn into other injuries, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Hearing the elder's words, Yuan’s father became even more anxious. After hearing that the elder was proficient in medicine, they both kneeled down and said:

"Old man, I beg of you, please treat our son. In the next life, I will report to you …"

Seeing that they were about to leave, the old man quickly helped them up and said:

"Please rise, please rise. How could I not care about this matter? I just need the two of you to help me prepare some things."

"Ok, we'll do it right away. Old man, what do you need us to do?"

"Help me prepare a big pot, a wooden bucket, and a bucket full of spring water. I'll handle the rest."

After the old man had finished speaking, he walked out. When the two of them came back to their senses, they discovered that the old man had already disappeared without a trace. And then, he hurriedly prepared for what the old man had told him.

Roughly four hours later, the old man still did not return. Yuan’s mother was anxious, the water had already been boiled and the pail was ready, although they did not know what these things were for, the two of them waited patiently, their son Yuan Tianxing was still unconscious.

Just as the two were waiting anxiously, the old man came back, only there was a gunny sack on the right shoulder of the old man, they had no idea what was in it. On his left shoulder was an animal, and upon closer inspection, it was actually a tiger (it was the one Yuan Tianxing had killed).

If one were to say that the old man was shocked to the point that his expression did not change when he carried Yuan Tianxing on his back while walking along the mountain road for five kilometers, it was undoubtedly even more so now. The elder walked up to them and placed the sack and tiger down on the ground. Laughing, he asked, "Have you prepared what I've told you?"

"We are all prepared, we are only waiting for the old man to come back."

"Alright, then let's begin."

Then, looking at the old man opening the gunny sack, he took out various types of medicinal ingredients and placed them into the bucket that was filled with boiling water. After that, he covered the bucket with the lid and laughed as he looked at Yuan’s father who was in a daze.

I've seen Tian Xing's injuries. I've gathered some herbs from the mountain, and now that he's soaked in boiling water, it takes about ten minutes before I carry Tian Xing into a wooden bucket and soak him for two hours. This will have a great effect on his injuries.

Only now did the two understand what the old man had done.

In the blink of an eye, the time it took to make a cup of tea had passed and the current Yuan Tianxing was still unconscious. The old man gently lifted him up, took off his outer robes, and then placed them in the wooden barrel. In a flash, Yuan Tianxing's face was covered in hot air. Perhaps it was because of the stimulation of the medicine, but Yuan Tianxing let out a soft moan, and then slowly opened his eyes.
