The mountainous area in northwest region China is like a primitive area, with no roads, no cars, and few people.
Surrounded by mountains, there is a lonely thatched house. There are many herbs planted in the open space outside the thatched house, and the medicinal fragrance is overflowing.
There is not much space in the thatched cottage, only a bed and a desk, and the desk is full of books and all kinds of straw paper.
At this time, an Old Man with white beard and hair was lying on the bed, his eyes were closed tightly and his face was peaceful.
A boy who looked only seventeen or eighteen years old was sitting by the bed.
"Sally Xia, I really envy you. You can pass away peacefully after only living for eighty-one years."Frank Fang looked at the Old Man who had just passed away on the bed, and said to himself with a smile on his face.
"Oh, I'm miserable. I don't know how many years I have to live before I can grow up."Frank Fang sighed, there was pain in his eyes, and more helplessness.
It has been nearly five thousand years since he stepped on the road of Cultivation.
During this long period of time, Frank Fang could not die, and his realm could not go any further.
After Cultivation for nearly five thousand years, he is still in the stage of refining Qi!
That's right, the Qi refining period! The most basic state of the road of Cultivation!
According to strict standards, the Qi refining period can't even be regarded as a realm, but only a body refining period.
Only after the foundation is established can one truly step on the road of cultivating immortals.
But Frank Fang has been stuck in the stage of the Qi refining period, unable to move forward.
For thousands of years, he has swallowed tens of thousands of Foundation Establishment Pills, but it has no effect at all.
A thousand years ago, Frank Fang's master comforted him, saying that it was because his spiritual roots were stronger than anyone else's that he had to wait longer in Qi refining.
But a thousand years later, Frank Fang still couldn't break through to the foundation-building stage.
At this time, his master also felt that he had made a mistake. Frank Fang was actually just a mortal without spiritual roots?
But how can a mortal live for thousands of years without even showing signs of aging?
Later, Frank Fang's master succeeded in crossing the tribulation, ascended to immortality, and left the earth.
After that, no one cared about Frank Fang's realm.
As time goes by, the aura resources on the earth are getting thinner and thinner.
In today's earth, even if Frank Fang can break through the realm, he is doomed to be unable to overcome the catastrophe and become a fairy.
But Frank Fang never thought of becoming an immortal, he just wanted to break through this damn Qi refining period!
This is his obsession.
As of today, he has Cultivation to the 9832nd floor of the Qi Refining Stage. As for ordinary monks, as long as Cultivation to the twelfth floor, they can break through to the foundation building stage.
Frank Fang felt a little depressed when he thought about Cultivation .
He took a deep breath, stood up, and looked at the scraps of paper on the desk filled with various prescriptions.
"If I knew you would become such a drug addict, I shouldn't have taught you medical skills back then!"Frank Fang shook his head slightly, helplessly.
According to Sally Xia's last wish, he should organize these prescriptions and take them away.
Not long after he started tidying up, he heard some noisy footsteps. He immediately raised his head and looked in a direction outside the window of the thatched cottage.
Sally Xia has already built thatched cottages in such a place, yet they can still be found?
Frank Fang frowned slightly.
Ten minutes later, a group of people came to the thatched cottage.
There were seven people in total, including two young men and women, an Old Man in a wheelchair, and four well-built men in suits and leather shoes, who looked like bodyguards at first glance.
Seeing the Old Man in the wheelchair exuding a dead air, Frank Fang knew that this group of people must have come to seek medical treatment.
"Xavier Yao Xia, hello, my name is Terry Tang , we are from the Tang Family in the Jiang nan , we would like to ask you to give me..." The handsome young man stepped forward and said loudly.
Frank Fang pushed open the door and interrupted him.
"You guys are late, Sally Xia just passed away not long ago."
What! ?
The faces of all the people present changed.
Sally Xia, the Xavier Yao they were looking for...has passed away! ?
"Why, how come..."Terry Tang looked pale and stared blankly at Frank Fang.
In order to cure Mr. Tang's serious illness, they used the resources of the entire family and spent a lot of manpower and material resources to find out the location of Sally Xia, the Xavier Yao who had been hiding from the world for nearly 20 years.
After going through untold hardships, they finally found the thatched cottage where Sally Xia lived. Unexpectedly, what they got was this news!
"How could it be such a coincidence? We just found it...No, Xavier Yao Xia must not have passed away, he just avoided the world and didn't want to see us!" The delicate-looking young girl said excitedly with her eyes flushed.
"Yes! The Xavier Yao must still be in the hut!"Terry Tang walked into the hut with hope in his eyes.
Then, he saw Sally Xia lying on the bed with his eyes closed.
Terry Tang observed carefully and found that the Old Man on the bed was not breathing.
"Why, how did this happen..."Terry Tang felt hopeless and lost all strength.
"I said, Sally Xia has passed away, you can go back."Frank Fang frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied with Terry Tang's act of breaking into the cottage.
Terry Tang suddenly thought of something, turned his head to look at Frank Fang, and asked, "Are you an apprentice of the Xavier Yao? You must have inherited the medical skills of the Xavier Yao. You can cure our grandfather, as long as it can be cured, no matter how much We are willing to pay the money!"
Frank Fang shook his head and said, "I'm not his apprentice...I'm just an old friend of his."
In fact, strictly speaking, Frank Fang is Sally Xia's master.
Sally Xia, who was only fifteen years old back then, embarked on the path of medicine under Frank Fang's guidance. Of course, there is no need to say these words, and no one will believe them.
However, even the old friend's statement seems strange.
Frank Fang looks less than 20 years old, and Sally Xia is over 80 years old, the two are not in the same age group at all, how can they be called old friends?
However, no one thought about it at this time, and the group was immersed in the despair of shattered hopes.
After hearing the news of Sally Xia death, Mr. Tang, who was sitting in a wheelchair, completely lost his anger and his eyes were ashen.
God willing! His fate has come! No need to struggle anymore!
Seeing her grandfather like this, the young girl was very sad and could not stop crying.
Frank Fang frowned slightly, looked at Mr. Tang, and suddenly said: "You have lived for seventy-three years, you should have lived enough, why do you still want to live?"
Hearing this sentence, everyone was taken aback, wondering how Frank Fang knew Mr. Tang's age.
But when they heard what Frank Fang said later, their faces changed.
Enough to live?
Who in this world will live enough?
What does it mean! ?
provocative? ridicule?
"You bastard, what do you mean!?"Terry Tang face was ashen, and he punched Fang Yu's chest.
Frank Fang eyes moved slightly, but his body did not move.
"boom!"
Before Terry Tang's fist touched Frank Fang, he was hit by a huge force, and he flew backwards and fell to the ground.
The faces of the other people present changed greatly, and they were shocked.
It was obviously Terry Tang who punched, but the boy didn't even move, why did Terry Tang fall to the ground instead?
"Brother!" the beautiful girl screamed.
The four bodyguards came to their senses and immediately took a few steps forward, walking in front of Frank Fang.
"Don't do it!" Mr. Tang, who was sitting in a wheelchair, ordered in a hoarse voice.
The four bodyguards stopped immediately.
Terry Tang clutched his chest, got up from the ground, and looked at Frank Fang with horrified eyes.
"Little brother, we're sorry, what's your name?" Mr. Tang asked.
"Frank Fang."Frank Fang replied.
Mr. Tang nodded slightly, and said, "Just now, little brother, you asked me why I still want to live, and I can answer it."
"Because, I still want to continue to be with my family. I want to watch my grandchildren grow up, watch them start a family and start a business, and watch them give birth to offspring... Isn't that how people are? Watching from generation to generation." Mr. Tang smiled. said.
"Grandpa..." Hearing Mr. Tang's words, the girl on the side cried even more sadly.
family……
Frank Fang eyes moved slightly.
For him, family is a long time ago, but for mortals, family has always existed, generation after generation.
And the vast majority of mortals, who would not want to live longer?
"You are in the late stage of lung cancer, and you have less than three months to live. Enjoy the last period of your life."Frank Fang said, turned and went back to the thatched cottage, and closed the door.
The Tang Family family and the rest were stunned.
How did Frank Fang see at a glance that Mr. Tang had lung cancer? And just like what the doctors said, Mr. Tang only has less than three months to live?
He is indeed the apprentice of the Xavier Yao!
After reacting, Terry Tang knocked on the door of the thatched cottage again, and shouted: "Mr. Fang, you must be the disciple of the Xavier Yao, right? Please treat my grandfather, we..."
"Life is a matter of life and death. Get out of here immediately, or don't blame me for being rude." Fang Frank Fang's calm voice came from inside the cottage.
"The benevolence of the doctor, how could you refuse to save him..."Terry Tang said angrily.
"Terry, come back." Old Master Tang said.
"Grandpa!"Terry Tang eyes were red, and he turned to look at Mr. Tang.
"Little brother is right. Life and death are destiny. God wants me to die. How can I not die? Let's go." Old Man Tang said.
"Little brother, I respect Mr. Xia very much. I didn't expect that Mr. Xia had passed away... Our arrival today disturbed Mr. Xia. I'm very sorry. I hope Mr. Xia spirit in heaven will not blame you." Mr. Tang sincerely said Said.
After speaking, he greeted a group of people and turned to leave.
Although Terry Tang was not reconciled, since Mr. Tang ordered, he had no choice but to leave.
On the way back, no one said a word, and the atmosphere was gloomy.
Terry Tang noticed that the younger sister beside her was thoughtful, and asked with a frown, "Tracy, what are you thinking about?"
Tracy Tang frowned slightly, and murmured: "I always feel... This Frank Fang looks familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere before."
"How is this possible? This is the first time we have come to the northwest region, how could you have met this Frank Fang?"Terry Tang said.
"That's right... But, it looks familiar to me."Tracy Tang rubbed her temples and said.
Terry Tang was in a bad mood, so he ignored Tracy Tang, thinking that she had admitted the wrong person.
However, after walking a few more steps, Tracy Tang suddenly stopped.
"I, I remembered, I saw him at school!"
