The Medical Guru

Chapter 1171 Because He Took a Pee…

“Clever move.”

Lin Qingyi applauded with a smile.

“Indeed. You pulled off this remarkable feat at such a young age. John Doe, you’re really great”

“How did he do that? I did not notice anything, and now the danger is already over?!”

“The avalanche came at full force, so our young friend John Doe must have resorted to some formidable means. Otherwise, he couldn’t have blocked the mountainous waves of snow so easily.”

“It seems we are all very curious.”

Patriarch Qian grinned and said to Fang Qiu, “Young man, why don’t you reveal what you did to clear our doubts and satisfy everyone’s curiosity?”

As soon as he made this request, everyone smiled and immediately clamored for answers from John Doe.

“So, now you want to steal my martial skills after sending me to do the laborious work?”

Fang Qiu sneered and said reproachfully, “You disrespectful old guys, don’t you feel ashamed?”

“What are you talking about?”

Diwu Mingchuan was the first to get up. Posing as a man of moral integrity, he protested, “How can you regard us Wulin people as thieves? Besides, have you ever come across anyone who steals martial art skills in such a flagrant way? It should be considered as a technical exchange.”

“Absolutely!”

Elder Zhan also said with a smile, “You are a junior, and we old fellows are more experienced than you. Go ahead and perform your martial arts, so we can give you some practical advice. You should cherish this rare chance to improve your skills.”

Fang Qiu was speechless.

He finally saw through these elders.

They were a group of old hooligans.

These old rascals must have had a devil-may-care attitude even when they were young. Although they are much older now, their deep-rooted bad habits remained unchanged. They were just better at hiding these evil traits deep in their hearts.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Behind their coach, the thunderous roars of rolling snow waves were still reverberating deep in the mountains.

The two drivers standing outside the coach were scared silly by the appalling scene in front of them.

They got back into the coach, looking at their passengers in consternation.

“Who, who the hell are you?”

The driver, who was also a tour guide, observed them and asked in a trembling voice.

“Ha-ha.”

His question amused everyone in the coach, and they couldn’t help laughing out loud.

“We are all normal people.”

Diwu Mingchuan smiled, pointed at Fang Qiu, and said, “But, this guy is out of his mind. You can lock him up in a mental hospital.”

“Yes, he is a complete nutcase.”

“He dared to face the avalanche at the risk of his life. Anyone who will do that must be crazy.”

Everyone nodded.

Fang Qiu was rendered speechless and did not know what to say to justify himself.

“That’s sheer nonsense! Don’t believe them.”

Fang Qiu said with a wry smile, “Let’s carry on with our journey. I observed the route you took and didn’t find any branch road. Since an avalanche just happened, you can’t go back the same way we came. I suppose there should be another way ahead for you to go back, right?”

The two drivers nodded mechanically.

“Then drive.”

Fang Qiu said, waving his hand.

In the coach, the two drivers frantically rushed to drive. They lost their initial chattiness and remained silent for the rest of the journey.

However, the lively atmosphere in the coach did not change at all.

These old codgers were still animatedly talking about the beautiful scenery outside the window as if nothing had happened. Occasionally, bursts of merry laughter could be heard.

Unlike them, Fang Qiu had been observing the surroundings.

The coach was going deeper and deeper into the snowy mountains. Fang Qiu noticed they had reached an area with no signs of human habitation, which was even beyond the reach of those professional expeditions.

Fang Qiu didn’t think the two drivers had been here before because they were using maps on their phones to navigate.

Lin Qingyi must have paid them a lot of money. Otherwise, the two drivers wouldn’t risk their lives to bring them here.

Forty minutes later, the two drivers finally located the main road shown on their mobile navigation. It had been buried deep under the heavy snow, and no one had ever ventured to the site for at least half a year.

“Stop the bus!”

While the elderly people were still chatting animatedly away in the coach, Lin Qingyi jumped to his feet and called out. He swiftly grabbed his backpack from the compartment and said while slinging it on his back, “It’s time to alight from the coach.”

One after another, the rest of them got up, carrying their backpacks on their backs.

The driver quickly pulled up.

In their eyes, this group of people were simply not in their right minds.

They feared they would get some kind of mental disease when they stayed too long in the company of these lunatics!

Frankly, they had wanted to go back for a long time already.

However, there was no chance of doing so, so they could go on moving forward.

This time, Lin Qingyi’s words sounded like an amnesty to them, and they instantly let out a long sigh of relief!

Before long, all their passengers had alighted from the coach with their backpacks.

Led by Lin Qingyi, they walked toward the snow-clad mountains with their backpacks on their backs after getting off the coach.

“Hurry up. Let’s go!”

The reserve driver urged.

“Let’s see if they left anything behind. Otherwise, they would catch up with us later,” the other driver said cautiously.

The two of them got up to check.

Unexpectedly…

As soon as the two drivers stood up, the group of people, who had walked 30 or 40 meters away from the coach, suddenly zoomed forward with flying leaps, as if they had defied the earth’s tremendous gravity pull. They abruptly jumped high up in the air and began to walk on the snow with vigorous strides. Like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water, they streaked into the depths of these snow mountains.

The two drivers were stunned by such an astounding sight!

They froze on the spot as they watched their insane passengers for a long time.

They turned to look at each other in horrified disbelief when the group was out of sight. From their partner’s eyes, both of them learned the other party was also shaken to the core, and neither was able to speak for a long period of time.

…

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The piercingly cold wind blew through the snow mountains and whistled by Fang Qiu’s ears.

Following behind Lin Qingyi, everyone flew at the same speed.

Lin Qingyi was only a Half-step Guru, after all. With his current strength, he couldn’t fly. Besides, none of the leaders of the eight factions and sixteen sects were as powerful as a guru.

Although the four patriarchs and Master Numinous could fly, they didn’t do so and just followed Lin Qingyi all the way in silence.

Anyway, Lin Qingyi’s speed was fast enough.

Fang Qiu was at the tail end of the procession.

Along the way, they crossed several snow mountains before a particularly lofty mountain shaped like an ox’s head with two horns appeared in front of everyone.

Unlike the other tall mountains, this one had no snow but was covered with thick ice.

It looked like a man-made landscape. However, after taking a closer look, one could tell that the mountain and the ice were not artificially made but were naturally formed.

“What a magnificent scenery.”

Looking at the oxhead mountain from a distance, they began talking about the matter.

“Could it be that the secret land is right there?”

“See? There’s no more snow ahead. The ground and the mountain are covered with ice.”

“The mountain that looks like an ox head with horns seems to be covered in a layer of ice as well.”

“Are we in the glacier area?”

“Yep, the area in front of us is full of glaciers.”

“This place looks ancient. If not, this mountain should not be covered with such a solid layer of thick ice.”

“We were wrong. There are two mountains!”

When they got a little closer, everyone suddenly discovered that the mountain which resembled a pair of ox horns from a distance turned out to be two high mountains! Due to being concealed by the snow, their bottom halves were almost hidden from their view. Though the two mountains were only dozens of meters apart, the group was sure the two high mountains were not connected at all.

The mountain parts which were above the ice were several hundred meters high.

“Patter! Patter! Patter!”

Once they reached the site, Lin Qingyi immediately landed at the foot of two mountains, and the others also came to a halt on top of the incomparably thick ice.

Though he landed on the ground, Lin Qingyi did not stop. Instead, he continued to move forward and stepped between the two high mountains.

Fang Qiu also arrived at the foot of the two towering mountains.

Then he looked up.

For some reason, Fang Qiu felt the two mountains which resembled the shape of an ox horn were like two giant snakes confronting each other!

Everyone felt cowed by the magnificence of the twin peaks, which made them feel suffocated and under a tremendous pressure.

“Faction Leader Lin, have we arrived at the right place?”

One of them suddenly asked.

“Yes!”

The moment they heard the reply, Lin Qingyi stopped.

Everyone looked toward him.

Lin Qingyi stopped right between the two mountains.

At a glance, they saw nothing above the empty plains.

“Is this the right spot?”

Diwu Mingchuan walked up with a puzzled look on his face.

“Yes.”

Lin Qingyi nodded and said, “You can try to walk a few steps forward.”

Everyone did what he suggested.

However, when they walked past Lin Qingyi, they couldn’t even lift their feet. It was as if a wall had appeared before them and obstructed their hands, feet, and bodies!

“Huh?”

Diwu Mingchuan, walking ahead of the others, was the first to discover that something was wrong. Instantly, he took a step back. Then, he raised his hand and thrust it forward.

He seemed to have touched something in the void before him, and a layer of sparkling light suddenly surged forth.

It was like a mirror!

Everyone felt shocked.

No one had expected this secret land to be so magical.

“Pay attention.”

Lin Qingyi, who had retreated ten steps, reminded the others.

They quickly took a few steps back and then looked up.

Many characters loomed on the transparent mirror-like light curtain. Even at first glance, all who saw those obscure patterns found that it was very hard to understand the words.

It was an ancient Chinese script of Huaxia.

Through the transparent light curtain, everyone could sense the rich Qi of Heaven and Earth inside; it was so abundant that all of them couldn’t help casting a covetous eye inside!

“Faction Leader Lin, you’ve done a hard and amazing job! How could you find such a well-concealed place?”

“No human being would come here even in thousands of years. Even if some people were here, they might not be able to discover this secret land.”

“Yeah, how on earth did you find the place?”

Several people asked him curiously.

“It happened a few years ago.”

Lin Qingyi gave a wry smile and said, “In my faction, sometimes, we hike as a way of cultivation. After passing through high hills, grasslands, lofty ridges, and towering mountains, I came to this place of glaciers. Anyway, I didn’t intend to stop here. But when I was passing through, I suddenly had the urge to pee. So, I hurriedly ran here to pee. To my great surprise, something blocked its way and it splashed back…”

His recollection of the incident stunned everyone.

It sounded a little disgusting. But Lin Qingyi spotted a secret place when he stepped aside to take a pee. Wasn’t he excessively lucky?

But there was something they didn’t ask, though they all wanted to know the answer: did he wet his pants when the urine splashed back?

“John Doe.”

Patriarch Qian turned to see Fang Qiu and said, “Here we are. Please have a try first.”

Everyone nodded in unison.

Indeed, John Doe was brought here to gain access to this secret land, wasn’t he?
