There is an old saying that goes like this: The cunning rabbit dies and is cooked by running dogs, while the flying birds use up their good bows and hide them.
This means that when the rabbit is dead, the running dogs used to hunt the rabbit are cooked and killed; when the birds are gone, the good bows and arrows used to shoot the birds are put away.
This is what Pu Yansong is facing.
During so many treatments, it was impossible for Pu Yansong not to have seen that mysterious man.
Judging from the other party's request to remain mysterious at all times, Pu Yansong saw his face, so this was naturally not possible.
Once Pu Yansong completely cures that person's illness, it may become incurable.
To put it in layman's terms, after Pu Yansong is completely useless to the mysterious man, his ending is very likely to be erased from the world like a lackey and a good bow!
Jiang Qiu has no doubt about this.
He has seen the darkest side.
At the beginning, he also commissioned Song Chengping to erase many people from the human world.
Nowadays, there is no trace of Pu Yansong, and it is very likely that it will disappear from the world from now on.
Jiang Qiu's face suddenly turned ugly.
The old police officer on the side also frowned.
Chen Jishi smiled bitterly.
"I have tried to persuade the teacher many times, but the teacher always said that as a doctor, you cannot ignore death."
"Even if there is hell ahead, he can't do it while watching a patient die in front of him."
Hearing this, Jiang Qiu was silent.
Taking a deep breath and putting down the hand holding Chen Jishi's collar, Jiang Qiu sighed and shook his head.
This is the old man's own choice, and it is in line with the old man's philosophy of hanging the pot to help the world.
The old gentleman is a great man!
It is impossible for Jiang Qiu to watch such a person suffer harm.
But as it stands now, Chen Jishi doesn't know where Pu Yansong is.
Jiang Qiu turned his attention to the other man who was unconscious, but quickly shook his head.
Given the mysterious man's tendency to keep everything secret, it was impossible for the man who came to monitor Chen Jishi to know where Pu Yansong had gone.
But in this case, the clues will be completely cut off.
Jiang Qiu was slightly sad, he didn't know how to explain to Pu Yanran.
Judging from the current situation, it seems that Pu Yansong is waiting for Pu Yansong to return alone.
A moment later, police backup arrived and carried the unconscious man to the hospital, while Chen Jishi was interrogated.
Of course, he did nothing wrong and will be released soon.
The old police officer patted Jiang Qiu on the shoulder and sighed.
"Doctor Jiang, it's okay. Mr. Ji has his own destiny, and he will definitely come back safely."
Jiang Qiu nodded silently and murmured.
"hope so."
…………
At the same time, in an unknown mountain forest.
Pu Yansong took a few deep breaths of fresh air and couldn't help but smile.
“Great place! Suitable for retirement.”
Hearing this, the two men in front smiled slightly, and one of them spoke.
"The old man is very old. It would be a beautiful thing if he could live out his days in a green mountain and green water."
Pu Yansong didn't say anything. He looked smiling on the outside, but he couldn't help but feel nervous inside.
How could he not know Chen Jishi's worries?
He was already thinking whether this would be his last trip.
He had treated the mysterious man several times, and he was very clear about his condition.
Regardless of whether this treatment is successful or not, it will be his last diagnosis and treatment.
Successfully, the mysterious man is cured and there is no need to use him anymore.
If it fails, the mysterious person will die soon, and there is no need to use him anymore.
No matter how it ends, this is the last time.
After the treatment, Pu Yansong was sure that the other party would not use some bloody methods to shut him up, because based on his feeling, the other party was not a heinous person.
but……
Just because he doesn't use bloody methods doesn't mean he can be let go.
Just like the man in front said, he is old, and it would be a beautiful thing if he could live out his days in a place with green waters and green mountains.
Just like in this mountain forest.
In a hut, people bring food and water, and they stay with the mountains and wilderness every day, completely isolated from the outside world until... they die of old age.
Do you want to stay in this land of green water and green mountains?
Pu Yansong smiled inwardly.
He will be 97 after the Chinese New Year, which is very old.
Not a bad choice.
It's a pity that I can never see my daughter and granddaughter again...and that amazing and cheap apprentice...
Pu Yansong sighed and silently followed the man along the mountain path.
Finally, the three of them came to an equally simple hut.
There are some high-quality medicinal materials placed in the open air outside the hut, ready for Pu Yansong to be used at all times.
"Please, old gentleman."
The man stopped in front of the door and was very respectful to Pu Yansong.
Opening the door, an incandescent lamp illuminates everything inside.
A fat man had his back to Pu Yansong. Hearing the movement behind him, the man smiled slightly and said in a gentle voice.
"Old sir, we meet again."
Pu Yansong smiled and shook his head.
"I hope you can get well soon and don't have to look for me anymore."
The man laughed, then sighed.
"Who wants to get sick? I also want to get better soon, but my body... is getting worse day by day."
Turning his head, the man revealed an ordinary face.
If you have to use adjectives to describe it.
It's really just ordinary, and maybe a little bit righteous.
The man pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and smiled faintly.
"Old sir, let's start."
Pu Yansong nodded, looked at the man's rosy complexion, and was about to speak when the man suddenly said.
"Yes, yes! I forgot!"
"Xiaodong, bring a basin of water over here."
The wooden door of the cabin was immediately pushed open, and a man named Xiaodong brought a basin of water.
The ordinary-looking man took off his glasses and scrubbed his cheeks in the water.
When he raised his head again, Pu Yansong was surprised by the man's appearance!
Where is the freshly rosy look here?
The complexion is dull, the cheeks are pale, and the eyebrows are dark!
Only one pair of eyes remained, still bright and bright.
The man wiped his face carelessly and smiled.
"I almost forgot to remove my makeup, which almost caused the old gentleman to misjudge."
"Sir, don't be offended. Normally, you are not allowed to show off your sick appearance, so you can only find someone to paint on your face."
Pu Yansong was in no mood to joke with the man, and there was only deep horror in his bright eyes!
Without saying a word, take your pulse and observe your physical appearance!
The more carefully he inspected, the more solemn Pu Yansong's face became.
Seeing how serious Pu Yansong was, the smile on the man's face gradually disappeared.
Finally... Pu Yansong withdrew his hand to feel the pulse.
Raising his head and glancing at the miserable-looking man, Pu Yansong hesitated.
"you……"
Having just uttered a word, Pu Yansong didn't know how to speak.
When the man saw this, he knew that the situation was not good, so he could only forcefully smile.
"Old sir, it doesn't matter."
Pu Yansong sighed deeply.
"You are... extremely ill."
"I diagnosed you two years ago. Your condition was already serious. At that time, I told you to remember to rest and take care of yourself! Otherwise, you won't have much time left."
"But... looking at it now, you must have failed to follow the doctor's instructions!"
The man suddenly smiled awkwardly and apologized.
“There are so many things going on that I really can’t get away from them.”
Pu Yansong was heartbroken and said.
"But you are committing suicide!"
"I diagnosed you for the first time five years ago. Although your illness seems terrible, the disease is in the muscles of the limbs and can be cured with acupuncture and fire moxibustion."
"I diagnosed you for the second time two years ago. Your disease is already in your internal organs. Although it is difficult, it can be cured by taking the decoction on time and regulating your body."
"But you failed to follow the treatment plan many times, and now the disease has penetrated deep into the bone marrow! I...I..."
"well!"
Pu Yansong's heart was full of eagerness and helplessness, and finally they all merged into a heavy sigh.
His words didn't make it clear clearly, but the man opposite him obviously knew his ending.
Looking lonely for a moment, the man also sighed.
"I can't help it, I really...can't get away..."
"Old sir, is there nothing you can do?"
Pu Yansong nodded silently without saying a word.
Men can only change one question.
"Then...how long do I have?"
Pu Yansong looked up at the man's miserable face and shook his head.
"If you completely abandon work during these days and recuperate your body quietly, you can still live for half a year."
"But...if you still act like before, it will take at most one month."
The man took a deep breath, but unexpectedly, his expression gradually became calmer.
Pu Yansong was shocked.
There are very few people who can calmly face the fact that they only have half a year left to live.
"A month..."
The man murmured.
Pu Yansong's old face darkened!
Is this guy stubborn?
He didn't even look at the option of living for half a year without working!
He actually just continued working and survived for a month!
Pu Yansong was helpless.
Even if such a person has incredible medical skills, what's the use if others don't follow your instructions?
but……
Pu Yansong suddenly thought of Jiang Qiu.
Maybe...Jiang Qiu can cure it.
Pu Yansong has not forgotten that when he was in Sanyang City, he was still alive with only one breath left, but was stunned to be pulled back alive from the gate of hell by Jiang Qiu!
Although Pu Yansong still doesn't know how Jiang Qiu did it, there is no doubt that Jiang Qiu has this ability.
No matter how bad the physical condition of the man in front of him is, at least he can still walk and talk.
He couldn't even have consciousness at the beginning.
Therefore, if Jiang Qiu comes, there is a high chance that he can be saved!
However, this idea only flashed through Pu Yansong's mind, and then was completely erased from his mind.
Because until now, he still doesn't know whether this man is good or bad.
We don't even know his final outcome.
Was he forced to stay in this place to die alone, or was it more bloody...
Even if Jiang Qiu comes and cures the man, who can be sure whether the man will attack Jiang Qiu?
When everything was unknown, Pu Yansong would not let Jiang Qiu come here to take risks for the sake of the man's life.
He is indeed kind-hearted and willing to help others. He can treat others regardless of his own safety.
But the premise of doing this is not to cause harm to others.
Therefore, every time he treated a disease, he would not bring Chen Jishi over.
The same is true now. He will not reveal Jiang Qiu's power to men.
…………
The man sat there for a long time, then finally shook his head and smiled sadly.
"God wants my life...I can't escape it..."
"That's all..."
After saying that, the man stood up, slouched over, and smiled at the door.
"Xiaodong! Send the old gentleman back. By the way, thank you very much!"
Xiaodong at the door nodded, and he and another man were carrying a suitcase, which was very difficult.
When he opened it in front of Pu Yansong, it was filled with red banknotes!
Filled the whole suitcase!
The man laughed.
"Old sir, I have worked hard for you for so many years. You are already 96 this year. Why bother to come over?"
"Xiaodong, send the old gentleman home safely."
Xiaodong nodded repeatedly, zipped up the suitcase, and made a greeting gesture to Pu Yansong.
Pu Yansong was stunned for a moment, then walked forward blankly.
The man watched this scene with a smile at the door of the hut, and bowed deeply when Pu Yansong turned around.
Pu Yansong was speechless for a moment...
Actually... let him go directly, and gave him so much money...
Suddenly, Pu Yansong felt a little ashamed.
Before that, he actually suspected that people would ruthlessly put him under house arrest, or directly silence him!
It's like judging a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart!
Looking back again, the man, although seriously ill, still stood at the door and watched with a smile.
Pu Yansong's heart tightened, he suddenly turned around and said loudly.
