Chapter 2447: Melancholic (2)
Traveling Doctor Liu saw that Yu Zheng Xi and Qi Xue didn't show any sign of stopping. He sighed. "Come on, you two, it's time to stop."
"Master…"
The two of them could only obediently stop. Though, it was clear that the two of them were still dissatisfied and might want to continue arguing at some later time. Their argument was far from over!
"Yu Zheng Xi, you have been fighting Shan Yu for a long time and now you want to argue with Qi Xue all day long?" Traveling Doctor Liu pointed it out.
Yu Zheng Xi shrugged his shoulder.
In the past, the one who argued with him all the time was Shan Yu. After all, there were not many other disciples around Traveling Doctor Liu who would follow them all the time. Shan Yu was one and Yu Zheng Xi was the other one.
The other disciples were not too close to Yu Zheng Xi.
As for the two disciples from Qi Xi Kingdom, Yu Zheng Xi still knew them to a certain degree because Traveling Doctor Liu spent a long time in Qi Xi Kingdom. During that period of time, Yu Zheng Xi was able to interact more with the other disciples there.
"Master, you know that I'm not the one to provoke trouble," Qi Xue quickly raised her complaint.
Yu Zheng Xi glared at Qi Xue but she ignored him. Anyway, it was indeed Yu Zheng Xi who started the fight this time.
Shi Hao Yi saw this scene and shook his head. He decided to talk about other matters so that these two would stop arguing. "You two, do you plan to take disciples too? You're no longer young."
"I'm indeed old, so I don't want to burden these children with me." Yu Zheng Xi shook his head. With his knowledge, he suspected that it would be impossible for him to become a doctor much less a teacher.
It would be better for him to remain as a student.
"Me either," Qi Xue replied weakly.
If Qi Xue had to say, her knowledge was not much better than Yu Zheng Xi. If she truly wanted to teach students, it was estimated that she would lead them astray instead of teaching them properly.
Because of this, Qi Xue chose to stay as a student properly.
"I don't mean teaching medicine." Shi Hao Yi was amused when he saw the two people looked deflated. "I mean, Yu Zheng Xi is also good at other things, right? I heard your martial arts skills are not bad."
Martial arts?
Yu Zheng Xi was stunned for a moment before nodding his head. Because of his life experience, he had to learn martial arts and many others such as art of assassination, escape, and others. There were even various survival lessons that he had to follow otherwise he would never be able to survive this long.
After following Traveling Doctor Liu, Yu Zheng Xi still spare some time practicing when there was enough time. After all, it was not like their lives would be in constant danger and there were also time when they have a break. During this period of time, Yu Zheng Xi would devote his time practicing.
As for practicing medicine?
Back then, Yu Zheng Xi only do it occasionally because his aptitude was not the best and his main role was to protect Traveling Doctor Liu.
Traveling Doctor Liu had long known that Yu Zheng Xi was not very good, so he didn't force this disciple of his to continue learning so much. It would be good enough if Yu Zheng Xi could learn a bit and made sure that he was not such a stupid person.
Besides, it could be seen that Yu Zheng Xi's martial arts were not that bad.
Having been trained in martial arts for a long time, it was not a surprise for Yu Zheng Xi to be able to do martial arts well.
For this reason, Traveling Doctor Liu didn't care too much about his low aptitude.
"Yes, it's pretty good," Yu Zheng Xi replied.
"In that case, how about if you help me to train some guards?" Shi Hao Yi proposed. "I can pay you some money instead of letting you become freeloader here."
Yu Zheng Xi coughed when he heard the word 'freeloader.'
The problem is, he couldn't really refute that.
Neither Traveling Doctor Liu or Yu Zheng Xi had a lot of money. Traveling Doctor Liu spent his money to buy herbs and other medicines for him to study and use while Yu Zheng Xi basically had no income at all.
The main reason why the two of them could live well in the past few years were because it was Traveling Doctor Liu who used his money to keep them alive. Or they would meet some kindhearted people who would let Traveling Doctor Liu to stay for free.
In Shi Hao Yi's clinic, Traveling Doctor Liu was also allowed to stay for free.
Qi Xue and Yu Zheng Xi were tagging along.
"Fine," Yu Zheng Xi agreed.
Anyway, he could also do some exercise while training Shi Hao Yi's guards, which could be said to be a good thing for him.
Hearing this, Shi Hao Yi smiled brightly.
His guards's levels were not very high and Shi Hao Yi has been troubled that there were no one suitable to teach them. Now that he looked at his junior brother, Shi Hao Yi felt that Yu Zheng Xi was the most suitable one.
"It seems that I can use my money to buy more medicines from now on," Traveling Doctor Liu said happily.
"Master, do you despise me so much?"

"Who made you unable to raise yourself when you're already in your fifties?"
"Master, my duty is to protect…"
"Bah, bah."
Qi Xue laughed when she saw Yu Zheng Xi bickered with Traveling Doctor Liu. But from their expression, it could be seen that they were only joking and not really unhappy with this arrangement.
