Urban Super Medical Saint

Chapter 348 Past Events



For quite a while, Yang Yinhou's excitement gradually subsided.

"About your Uncle-Master's cultivation, you must not let word get out!" After calming down, Yang Yinhou said to Ouyang Murong with a serious face.

Having lived nearly a hundred years and experienced much turmoil, how could Yang Yinhou not know what it meant for someone as young as Ge Dongxu to have such terrifying cultivation for those in power?

And how could he not understand that Ge Dongxu had not told him his true cultivation before due to these concerns? Now, only because he needed to treat his leg injury did he have no choice but to reveal his true cultivation.

"Disciple understands!" Ouyang Murong solemnly bowed in acknowledgement.

As a member of the Qimen, Ouyang Murong was also very clear about what Ge Dongxu's terrifying cultivation meant!

"Elder Brother, let's put aside other matters for now and I'll open up your meridians first," Ge Dongxu said.

"This leg injury of mine has been dragged on for more than fifty years already, it won't make a difference in a day or two. You should first tell me about Master," said Yang Yinhou, patting his leg.

In fact, Ge Dongxu also wanted to know about his Master's past, so seeing Yang Yinhou had the same idea, he did not insist any further. Besides, even if he cleared Yang Yinhou's meridians now, he would not be able to stand up immediately.

"Alright, I also want to know about Master's past." So Ge Dongxu nodded and began to talk about his childhood experiences of cultivating with his Master.

This conversation lasted for two to three hours, and the sky had already turned completely dark.

Inside the villa, Ouyang Murong had turned on the lights at some point.

Under the light, Yang Yinhou's face was covered in tears.

"It's all my unfilial behavior, Elder Brother. Back then, Master, due to his personality, chose to fight the war on his own during the national crisis, unwilling to join any organization. I believed individual strength was ultimately limited and chose to join others with the will to fight the invasion, even joining the KMT army later on. Although Master chose to act alone, he supported my decision, so Elder Brother and Master took different paths. As you know, communications at that time were far from as developed as now, and later Elder Brother joined the expedition to Myanmar and, due to serious injuries, was trapped in the deep mountains of Old Lin for over a year. I only gradually recovered and returned to the army, and then the Civil War broke out, severing contact with Master completely. If I hadn't separated from Master back then, perhaps he wouldn't have been injured in the head, and even if he had suffered memory loss due to a head injury, he wouldn't have been left uncared for."

"During the national crisis, everyone had a responsibility, and Elder Brother, you had no choice at that time. Don't blame yourself. Moreover, in his later years, I accompanied Master for six years. During those six years, Master was in good spirits every day, always smiling, and he passed away very peacefully, so you shouldn't feel sad or blame yourself," Ge Dongxu consoled.

"Yes, Master. If your grandfather knew that back then you adamantly refused to go to Taiwan, and later made your way back to the mainland and secluded yourself here to be involved in the jade raw stone trade, just to look for news about your grandfather, he would understand your filial piety from the underworld," Ouyang Murong followed in consolation.

"A son wishes to support his parents, but they are not around. Although I held this filial piety, I ultimately failed to fulfill my filial duties," Yang Yinhou said, patting his chest, heartbroken and blaming himself.

"Elder Brother, you talk about Master's past, as well as your own affairs," Ge Dongxu, seeing that Yang Yinhou was somewhat uncontrollable in emotion and that consoling was of no use, had no choice but to ask him questions.

Sure enough, with Ge Dongxu's inquiry, Yang Yinhou's attention was diverted, and he began to recall his past with Ren Yao, then spoke of it one by one.

"Our Pill Talisman Sect might not have had many members in each generation compared to the big sects, but because our Pill Talisman Sect excels in alchemy and creating talismans, every generation produces several powerful individuals. Thus, we still hold a significant status within the Qimen. During the Qing Dynasty, our Pill Talisman Sect suffered a great blow. By the end of the Qing and the Republic of China era, foreign powers invaded, internal wars abounded, and the elders of our Pill Talisman Sect successively sacrificed themselves in the chaos. At that time, Master was a genius of our Pill Talisman Sect, reaching the Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer at a young age, escaping from several dangers and becoming the sole surviving disciple of our Pill Talisman Sect."

"At that time, I was just one of the countless orphans of the war-torn era, fortunate enough to encounter Master, be saved and adopted by him. Later, I cultivated with Master, roamed the martial world with him, championed justice, and executed invaders. Cultivated by Master in many ways, when Elder Brother and Master parted ways, I was at the Fourth Layer of Qi Cultivation, and Master was at the peak of the Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer. Elder Brother and Master still had some intermittent contact for a while, but eventually joined the KMT, constantly on the move, and gradually lost contact with Master, and then went to Myanmar and completely lost contact."

"After liberation, Elder Brother also inquired in many ways but got no news of Master. Later, as Elder Brother aged and thought about Master, who was much older, even if he had survived the wars, he was likely no longer in this world, I gradually gave up on that pursuit."

With that, he spoke for several more hours.

He mainly spoke about Ren Yao's affairs and his own, especially about the period after the victory against Japan, other than looking for his Master, he hardly mentioned anything else. Several times when Ge Dongxu specifically inquired, he quickly changed the subject, obviously not wanting to recall that period.

Seeing that he had asked several times and Yang Yinhou kept diverting the topic, Ge Dongxu felt somewhat puzzled and didn't understand, but refrained from asking further.

Ouyang Murong at the side, however, was very clear as to why his father didn't want to mention that period.

Because that period spent in the Golden Mountain and the jungles of Northern Myanmar was a particularly suffocating, helpless period filled with blood and heroism for Yang Yinhou. During that time, he had done some things against his conscience, so he did not want to bring up that history. His later choice to return to the country, rather than staying in Northern Myanmar or the Golden Triangle area, was not only to look for news about his Master, but also because he didn't want to get involved in those conflicts and dirty business.

Otherwise, if Yang Yinhou had continued to stay in that jungle, titles such as "King of Brave Deeds" would not have fallen to others. Explore more at My Virtual Library Empire
