Chapter 1842 Destiny(1/2)
"hehe."
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the old man waved his hand.
"Actually, it is a mission and a reason for me to escape from reality... There is nothing I can't say."
Seeing him say this, Xiao Chen looked at him with a scrupulous look.
He was really curious about what mission it was to allow an old Chinese doctor with great medical skills to run from China to this place where birds do not shit!
Based on the conversation just now, he could conclude that this old man is an old friend of Yao Qihuang in China and has a high status in the traditional Chinese medicine industry!
If he stayed in China, he would not be related to those of the court like Yao Qihuang, and at least he was also a guest of honor for countless noble officials!
And what about thatga?
If you don’t recognize traditional Chinese medicine, you may not even have a patient in such a dilapidated Chinese medicine shop all day long.
Compared to his situation in China, this is a place where birds do not shit!
“I came from Gata Island.”
The old man looked at Xiao Chen and said slowly.
“Gata Island?”
Xiao Chen was stunned and then widened his eyes.
He didn't expect that the old man would have something to do with Gata Island.
Moreover, the word "mission" is used.
"Well, if there are many people coming to Naga, they are all coming to Gata Island... And Gata Island has another name, Devil Island."
When the old man said this, he suddenly thought of something.
"My friend Xiao, you come to Naga... Isn't it also coming to Gata Island?"
"Well, yes."
After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Chen nodded and admitted.
Although he may not admit it, he had a good chat with the old man, lies and other things, which were not very good.
So, he admitted it.
When the old man heard Xiao Chen's words, he looked at him, but he was not too surprised.
Recently, too many people have come to Naga. Although he stayed in this small pharmacy, it does not mean that he does not know what is happening outside.
"Haha, Xiao Xiao is in China, how could he know about Gata Island?"
The old man asked with a smile.
"Someone told me that there was a big opportunity here, so I came here to try my luck."
Xiao Chen looked at the old man and said.
"Great opportunity?"
The old man was stunned and nodded immediately, speaking very slowly.
"There is indeed a great opportunity on Gata Island, waiting for someone with destiny..."
"Well? Waiting for someone who is destined to be?"
Xiao Chen was stunned. What does this mean?
"Sir, what is your mission? Tell us."
Bai Ye asked a little anxious.
"Guarding Gata Island."
"Guarding Gata Island?"
Xiao Chen and Bai Ye's eyes froze.
"Yes, this is the thing... More than ten years ago, I went back to my hometown ancestral home and found my grandfather's grandfather in the ancestral temple... Well, it's just a letter left by an ancestor anyway."
The old man looked at the two of them and started to talk.
"It turns out that our Xia family has a mission to protect the things on Gata Island... However, my father and grandfather and others did not find the information left by their ancestors, so they were not clear about this... If I hadn't been looking for something in the ancestral temple, I wouldn't have found it!"
Xiao Chen and Bai Ye didn't say anything, listened quietly.
Especially Xiao Chen, he was a little excited. He felt that he could know something from the old man's mouth.
"Do you know the ancient martial arts world?"
Suddenly, the old man looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"Know."
Xiao Chen nodded. Could this old man be an ancient martial arts practitioner?
"Well, just know. The ancient martial arts world is a special existence compared to the secular world... Our Xia family used to be from the ancient martial arts world, but later all kinds of inheritances were cut off and gradually became less famous! By the time my grandfather's generation, he had almost faded out of the ancient martial arts world! Except for when I heard my grandfather say a few words when I was a child, I had no impression of the ancient martial arts world and no idea! If I hadn't discovered the information left by my ancestors, I would have forgotten this."
The old man said slowly.
"My Xia family used to be in the ancient martial arts world and relied on two things to gain a foothold, one was formation, and the other was medical skills! However, after the war and the impact of that era, many precious inheritances were gone... Especially the formations, I now don't know anything except a few ordinary formations! As for medical skills, it's not my old man who is good at it. In the Chinese traditional Chinese medicine world, medical skills are better than me, no more than a pair of hands! But even so, most of the medical inheritance of my Xia family has been lost!"
When the old man said this, his eyes were a little fanatical.
"If the medical skills inheritance has not been lost so much, then my medical skills will definitely be much more powerful than it is now! Unfortunately, most of them are gone, alas!"
Xiao Chen nodded. Many famous families in the ancient martial arts world lost their inheritance due to various changes... Once the inheritance is lost, most of them will only have one way to perish!
It is already quite good for those who retired to the ancient martial arts world like the Xia family.
"After I saw the information left by my ancestors, I learned about the mission of the Xia family and the existence of Gata Island... The most important thing is that the ancestor said that he also placed some of his medical skills and formation inheritance on Gata Island! So, I came!"
The old man was so excited that he thought of something and smiled bitterly again.
"However, this is also my wishful thinking. I want to get back the inheritance of my Xia family, but I have been to Gata Island for so many years and have been to Gata Island for hundreds of times, but I have not gotten anything."
"So, is the things on Gata Island yours?"
Bai Ye looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"no."
The old man shook his head.
"My ancestor once did it for a senior master... Well, follow me! The things on Gata Island are related to that senior master. What is it? The information left by my ancestor did not say it, but just said it to be reserved for those who are destined to be... And my Xia family is just guarding it on behalf of others, and that senior master has no descendants."
"Oh, it's equivalent to the butler?"
Bai Ye nodded and understood a little.
"Well, that's right, but this 'mission' was broken later. My grandfather and the others probably didn't know until I saw the message left by my ancestors."
The old man nodded and said.
"Then why don't you ask your grandfather..."
Bai Ye didn't know how to ask, but before he finished speaking, he realized it.
This old man looks like he is in his seventies, and the grass on his grandfather's grave is probably too tall, so why do you ask?
"My grandpa died when I was a teenager. What do I ask?"
The old man smiled bitterly.
"Uh, I forgot this, sir, you continue."
Bai Ye smiled awkwardly.
"Old sir, so you don't know what's on Gata Island. You only know that your ancestor helped the senior master guard it, and then he also placed part of the Xia family's inheritance on Gata Island?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"right."
The old man nodded.
"But I have given up on the things that I inherited from the Xia family... I am staying here for the so-called mission! I hope that someone can get things from Gata Island. In that case, I will leave here and return to China... Although I have only been there for more than ten years, I am tired, really tired."
The old man finally showed some fatigue.
"I originally thought that I could get the Xia family's medical skills inheritance, make my medical skills more powerful, and then revitalize traditional Chinese medicine... I didn't expect that more than ten years have passed, and I will eat here and wait for death."
"Old sir, you can go back to China soon."
Bai Ye looked at the old man and said.
"Hmm? Why?"
The old man was stunned.
"Didn't your ancestor say that the senior master is going to wait for someone with destiny? The person with destiny is far away in the sky and close in front of you!"
Bai Ye said loudly.
Hearing Bai Ye's words, the old man was stunned and then looked up and down at Bai Ye: "Are you a destined person?"
