"The old doctor has arrived!"

Just as Li Daoxuan was pondering this in his heart, the young man who had gone to call the old doctor had already brought him over!

When the villagers saw the old doctor arrive, they all made way for him!

Li Daoxuan finally saw the old doctor's true face.

An elderly man with white hair and beard, and a face marked by the passage of time, walked over, leaning on a cane!

The old doctor was about to bow as soon as he arrived, but Li Daoxuan was faster and stepped forward to stop him, saying, "Senior, you absolutely mustn't!"

Perhaps it was just his eyes playing tricks on him, but when Li Daoxuan looked again, the old doctor's eyes seemed to show a satisfied expression. However, when Li Daoxuan looked again, the expression returned to normal.

After being stopped by Li Daoxuan, the old doctor said, "Sir, as an immortal, it is our honor that you would come to teach in our remote and impoverished place. May I ask what brings you here, sir?"

Seeing that the old doctor seemed unwilling to let others know that he was a cultivator, Li Daoxuan could only follow the old doctor's advice and said, "It's like this, senior. I want to open a school here to teach them to read and write, but no one in the village can read. So I would like to ask you to help me remember the names of the children in the village and their families."

The old doctor nodded and said, "No problem, I'll deliver it to you first thing tomorrow morning!"

"Then I'll have to trouble you, senior!"

Li Daoxuan bowed.

The old doctor waved his hand and said, "No trouble at all."

"I'm gone."

As the old doctor left, the villagers said goodbye to Li Daoxuan and followed him away!

Li Daoxuan glanced at the old doctor's departing back, and then, nothing happened!

"It seems I'm not even qualified to look up to this senior!"

Li Daoxuan sighed and then pushed open the door of the wooden house.

The elderly doctor, on the other hand, registered all the families with children.

"Old Doctor, why did that immortal call you 'Senior'? Are you really an old immortal as the rumors say?"

The old doctor shook his head and said, "How could that be? I've only lived this long because my daughter sends me some pills every year."

The young man persisted, asking, "Then why did he call you 'senior'? That immortal must have seen something!"

The old doctor smiled and said, "Perhaps it's because they think I'm old!"

The young man looked at the white-haired old doctor and nodded as if to himself.

"Okay, I'm done chatting. I need to register at other places."

After saying this, the old doctor walked to the next clinic!

After the old doctor left, the young man called out, "Be careful, old doctor, there are many stones on the road!"

The old doctor smiled and waved his hand, replying, "Yes, yes!"

The old doctor went to the next clinic, asking the same question at almost every one of them. He patiently answered each question, but the answers were always similar:

"How would I know? Maybe they think I'm too old!"

Time flew by, and it got dark. Although the village was lit by torches, it was still quite dark!

The old doctor walked out from the last house.

Seeing the old doctor was about to leave, the man from that family tried to persuade him to stay, saying, "Old doctor, it's getting dark. Why don't you stay here for the night? You can go directly to Mr. Li's school tomorrow morning!"

The old doctor waved his hand and said, "No, no, the pharmacy is waiting for me to watch over it."

Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, the man changed the subject, saying, "Then stay for dinner!"

The old doctor waved his hand again and said, "No, I still have leftovers from yesterday. They'll spoil if I don't eat them today!"

Seeing that he couldn't persuade the old doctor, the man called out, "Little Tiger, come here, take Grandpa Doctor back!"

A boy, about fourteen or fifteen years old, ran out of the house, helped the old doctor up, and said, "Grandpa, I'll take you home!"

Seeing that he couldn't argue with the man, the old doctor simply let Xiao Hu take him back.

On the way, Little Tiger asked, "Grandpa, do you think I can be like that immortal?"

The old doctor patted Xiao Hu's head and said, "Of course you can! Xiao Hu is so smart, he definitely can!"

Xiao Hu laughed after hearing this, and walked a little faster!

"Hey, hey, hey! Little Tiger, slow down, Grandpa can't walk fast!"

"Haha, sorry Grandpa."

"Haha, it's nothing, it's nothing!"

The next day arrived.

The old doctor got up early and went to the school where Li Daoxuan was!

"Bang bang bang!"

The old doctor knocked on the wooden door.

After a moment, Li Daoxuan opened the door and found the old physician. He said, "Senior, you've come so early!"

The old doctor smiled and said, "Young people should get up early and exercise more!"

"hehe!"

Li Daoxuan chuckled dryly, then invited the old doctor in!

On the wooden table, Li Daoxuan flipped through the basic information of twenty children in Xiaoyu Village recorded by the old doctor!

"Senior, this little tiger clearly has talent for cultivation, why don't you take him as your disciple!"

Li Daoxuan looked at the old doctor with some doubt. He had discovered after waking up that the boy named Xiaohu had extraordinary talent for cultivation.

The old doctor shook his head and said, "He is not meant to be with me."

Li Daoxuan asked with some doubt, "With your strength, why would you care about these things?"

The old doctor replied, "If there's no affinity, there's no affinity. If I insist on taking him as my apprentice, it won't be good for either of us in the future!"

"Yeah!"

Li Daoxuan nodded as if he understood, then asked, "Then who is he destined to be with?"

The old doctor pointed at Li Daoxuan.

"My mom?"

Li Daoxuan was somewhat puzzled!

The old doctor shook his head and said, "It's you, and it's not you!"

Li Daoxuan was completely dumbfounded.

Looking at the bewildered Li Daoxuan, the old doctor said again, "You'll understand when you get here!"

"What's wrong with that!"

Li Daoxuan felt something was wrong as soon as he woke up in the small fishing village, but he just couldn't put his finger on what it was!

The old doctor said again, "Some things are best left unsaid. Continuing to discuss them won't be good for either of us!"

Li Daoxuan had no choice but to give up.

Seeing Li Daoxuan's condition, the old doctor said to him, "Let's start the course tomorrow. Get some rest today!"

"Okay!" Li Daoxuan replied to the old doctor.

The old doctor smiled and walked away!

"what!"

Not long after the old doctor left, Li Daoxuan suddenly felt a headache, and some unfamiliar fragments of memory appeared in his mind.

"Mr. Zhang!"

"Master!"

"Grandmaster!"

"Treasure Pavilion, Pavilion Master!"

"What are all these things? My head hurts!"

Looking at the scattered fragments of memory, Li Daoxuan seemed to suddenly understand something, yet also seemed to be missing something!

Red Dust Inn!

Mr. Zhang watched the old doctor's retreating figure, smiled, and muttered to himself, "Old Yu, you're still the same!"
