Mu Xue and Mu Xue

Chapter 9 Martial Arts Academy

"The delicious food is here! Come and eat quickly." Lin Mo and the old man came in with the food. Today's meal was quite rich, after all, there were guests.

While eating, Lin Mo and Mu Xue discussed what Mu Xue had told him in the morning about opening a clinic.

"Brother, just go to the town and help promote my business. With a town hero like you helping spread the word, how can others not believe me? Hehe! After that, I'll help people with their illnesses and slowly make a fortune!"

Lin Mo patted Mu Xue's head lovingly and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, I'll do as you say. Come eat quickly, and we'll get to work after you finish eating."

Mu Xue nodded happily: "It's a deal then! Great hero, don't go back on your word!"

Lin Mo nodded: "No regrets, no regrets, liars are like dogs, eat quickly, or the food will get cold!"

Mu Xue picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth, mumbling, "Then let's go to town after dinner. I want everyone to know how powerful my medical skills are!"

Lin Mo looked at Mu Xue's cute appearance and couldn't help laughing: "Okay, when you become famous, don't forget me, your brother."

Mu Xue blinked: "Don't worry, I won't forget you."

The two discussed their future plans while eating, full of expectations and longings for life.

At that moment, the usually silent and peaceful old man next to him suddenly spoke. He beamed, "Oh, you two are so kindhearted! Not only are you willing to provide me with food and shelter, but you're even planning to open a clinic to help people! It's truly rare to see such kind hearts at such a young age!"

The old man's laughter was hearty and unrestrained, and his wrinkled, slightly aged face seemed to have instantly become 20 or 30 years younger. His smile was as warm as the sun, making people feel extremely friendly and amiable.

Hearing the old man's praise, the brother and sister couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. The elder brother quickly replied modestly, "Haha, you're too kind, old man! We're just doing small things within our ability. Opening the clinic is actually just to fill our stomachs and make a little money. It's not a great cause to save lives and benefit the world."

"Oh, don't be so modest. If you can save others for your own sake, you are also a good person!..." The two of them chatted while eating and had a great time. However, they seemed to have forgotten Muxue. However, Muxue was just there quietly eating and playing with Linglong.

After dinner, Mu Xue and Lin Mo headed to town. They found a vacant lot in the center of town, and Lin Mo helped hang up a sign that read "Mu Xue Medical Clinic."

Afterwards, Mu Xue began to prepare, with Lin Mo, the well-known hero in the town, promoting the opening of the clinic to passers-by.

Soon, the open-air clinic filled with people, and after a while, the first patient approached. It was a middle-aged man who complained of a severe headache. Mu Xue carefully inquired about his symptoms, then placed her hand on the man's head and began to heal him with her healing power. Mu Xue closed her eyes, and soon a pink light began to emanate from her hand, but it dissipated within two breaths.

"Okay, your illness is cured! Each treatment costs 15 copper coins."

"Wow! My head really doesn't hurt anymore. What's wrong with me, doctor?" The man asked Doctor Muxue curiously.

"Ahem! Uh..., it's all right if it's cured. Hurry up and pay because there's another person coming!" Mu Xue said calmly. Although she looked calm on the surface, she was actually panicking inside because she only knew how to cure diseases, but she didn't know the name of this disease!

"Okay!" The man gave the money and left.

After the patient left, Mu Xue felt both excited and nervous. She hoped to help more people, but she was also worried about encountering a disease that she couldn't cure with her current abilities.

Lin Mo saw her worry and patted her shoulder gently, encouraging her: "Believe in yourself, sister. You can do it."

"Yeah," Mu Xue nodded in agreement.

In the following morning, Mu Xue received three more patients, all of whom were cured by her healing power. After receiving the last patient, Mu Xue's strength was exhausted and she felt a little dizzy, so when she returned home, Lin Mo carried her on his back.

After returning home, Lin Mo found that Mu Xue had fallen asleep, so he put her on the bed and let her have a good sleep. Mu Xue slept for a long time and did not wake up until night fell. She stretched and felt much better.

"Brother, how long have I slept?" Mu Xue rubbed her eyes and asked.

"You've slept all day, lazy bum." Lin Mo said with a smile, "How do you feel? Do you have any energy?"

"Yeah, much better." Mu Xue sat up. "The clinic opened very smoothly today. Thank you for your help, brother."

"We're all family, what's there to thank?" Lin Mo said, "By the way, sister, when you were treating the patient today, did you feel anything wrong or difficult?"

Mu Xue thought for a moment and said, "Actually, although I can cure their illnesses, I don't know the names or causes of those illnesses. I just use my healing power based on my intuition and experience. This doesn't seem very professional."

Lin Mo nodded and said, "It is indeed a problem. We need to have a deeper understanding of medical knowledge in order to better help patients. Otherwise, let's find some medical books to read?"

"What a great idea!" Mu Xue said excitedly, "But where can I find medical books?"

"Let me think..." Lin Mo thought for a moment, "There should be some medical books in the bookstore in town. We can go ask him if we can buy a few to read."

"Great! Then let's go buy books tomorrow!" Mu Xue said impatiently.

Lin Mo looked at Mu Xue's enthusiasm and felt secretly relieved. He knew that his sister really enjoyed this job of helping others and was working hard to do better.

The next day, the brother and sister went to the town's bookstore. The owner, a kind old man, heard they wanted to buy medical books and smiled, saying, "Young people, you are really ambitious. Here are a few books on basic medicine that should be helpful to you."

Mu Xue took the book and flipped through it as if it were a treasure. Lin Mo was delighted to see his sister so focused. But Mu Xue frowned as she read, because she didn't know how to read at all! She told Lin Mo about this, and Lin Mo slapped his head and said, "Oh, I forgot, my sister has never been to school! Boss, do you have any books on teaching how to read?" Helplessly, he bought another book on how to read. He wanted to go home and teach Xue'er how to read so that she could study medical books.

In the days that followed, Mu Xue would set up a stall to treat patients in the mornings, and learn to read with Lin Mo in the afternoons. Thus, Mu Xue began to immerse herself in a sea of ​​books, constantly absorbing knowledge. She learned to read quickly, and in three days, she knew several thousand characters and could already read fluently. From then on, she would go out to treat patients in the mornings and read medical books at home in the afternoons. Mu Xue's medical skills continued to improve, and so did her cultivation, reaching the level of the fifth star.

As her medical skills improved, Mu Xue's reputation grew, and people flocked to her for treatment. The siblings' lives also improved.

On this day, Mu Xue and Lin Mo got up and had dinner as usual, and then went outside to set up a stall to treat illnesses. Suddenly, she saw a lot of people running in one direction, as if some disaster had happened, so she grabbed a passerby and asked what was going on: "Auntie, Auntie, what are you doing? Why are you all running over there? Is there something wrong?" Mu Xue blinked her big eyes and looked at the old lady.

"Oh, it's the little miracle doctor Xue'er! Don't you know? Recently, people from the martial arts school near us came here to recruit students, so we all came to join in the fun."

"Oh, it's enrollment. Brother, why don't you try your luck? Maybe someone will like you! Let's go, there are no customers now anyway, why not go and take a look." Mu Xue pulled Lin Mo's hand and said coquettishly.

"Okay, let's go and take a look." Lin Mo couldn't persuade him, so he simply agreed.

The two walked side by side and soon arrived at the school enrollment area. There were so many people here that the two children could hardly move forward.

At this time, a majestic voice appeared: "Everyone, be quiet." The voice was not loud but very imposing. Everyone on the scene shut up. Lin Mo took Mu Xue to find a place where they could see each other. Lin Mo put Mu Xue on his neck so that both of them could see clearly.

"Next, please ask those under 12 years old and over 6 years old to come on stage. Several masters from our academy will personally select them. Those who are not selected are not talented enough, so don't hold grudges."

"Brother, go up quickly! I'll wait for you here!" Mu Xue whispered to Lin Mo.

"Oh, if I go to school, who will take care of you at home? No, no!" Lin Mo quickly rejected Mu Xue's words.

"Oh, I can take care of myself. Didn't you say you would protect me? How can you protect me with your current strength? Go now! Even if you go, you may not be chosen."

"Okay then." When it comes to protecting Mu Xue, that's his weak point.

Lin Mo walked onto the stage. There were two other people there. He recognized them as children from the town who were older than him, but their cultivation levels were far inferior. Another one was Yun Yufei! "He's actually here too! I could sense a strong aura from the last few times we've been together. His presence is highly likely to be a factor," Lin Mo thought.

After a while, the same commanding voice resurfaced: "Since there's no one left, let's begin selecting disciples!" As soon as it finished, a figure appeared in the air. It was a woman, breathtakingly beautiful. Her skin was as white as jade and delicate as fat, her lips were tender and juicy, and her eyebrows were slightly raised, revealing a playful air. Her beauty was like the sun, impossible to ignore, and her breasts accentuated her slender waist.

She first walked towards Yun Yufei, and seemed to say something to him. After a while, she left, looked at the other two, shook her head, and finally came to Lin Mo, nodded and said, "This kid is pretty good, I want him." But at this moment, a familiar voice came. Lin Mo didn't know who it was for a moment, "Ziyuan! He's the one I've chosen! Don't even think about snatching him from me!" At this time, a man who looked like an old man appeared, "What! Isn't he the old man who lives in my house? He's actually the master of the martial arts academy! Oh my God, what a ridiculous plot!"

"Hmph! Why can't I snatch it from you? I'm going to snatch it from you, old man. I saw it first!" said the woman named Ziyuan angrily.

"Humph, I've had my eye on him for a long time. I was just testing him before. I've had my eye on him for a long time!!"

The two men argued fiercely. Lin Mo stood on the stage, looking at the two quarreling masters with a bewildered look on his face. He had not expected to cause such a quarrel, and he did not know how to choose.

"Masters, can you please listen to me?" Lin Mo said with courage.

The two stopped arguing and looked at Lin Mo.

"I want to ask, why do you all want to take me as your disciple?" Lin Mo asked.

Ziyuan answered first: "What I value is your potential and talent. You have a unique understanding in cultivation. I can teach you more advanced techniques and skills."

The old man said, "Boy, I am the dean of the academy. If you follow me, you can learn the most complete martial arts knowledge and have the opportunity to learn the academy's confidential martial arts."

Lin Mo thought for a moment and said, "Thank you both Masters for your appreciation, but I still want to go back and discuss this with my sister first. After all, she is the most important person to me, and I want to hear her opinion."

The two masters looked at each other and seemed to understand Lin Mo's thoughts.

"Okay, kid, go back and discuss it with your sister. But remember, the door of our academy is always open to you," said the old man.

Lin Mo nodded, then walked off the stage and came to Mu Xue.

"Sister, what do you think about this?" Lin Mo asked.

Mu Xue thought for a moment and said, "Brother, no matter what decision you make, I support you. But I have a very good suggestion." Mu Xue raised the corner of her mouth and gave a wicked smile, then said loudly to the two of them, "Why don't you two teach my brother together? One in the morning and the other in the afternoon."

After he said this, the audience immediately started talking.

Upon hearing Mu Xue's proposal, the two masters were stunned and the people in the audience started to make a noise.

Ziyuan looked at the old man with a disgusted expression and said, "I don't want to teach students with this stinky old man, but for the sake of this lovely sister, I reluctantly agreed."

The old man also reacted, laughed and said as if he didn't care about what Ziyuan had said before: "Okay! Let's do this, we'll go back first, and when you're ready, come to the Martial Arts Academy to find us! See you another day!" After that, he disappeared.

Mu Xue gave Lin Mo a wicked smile and whispered, "Brother, I'm awesome, right? Hehe!"
