Seeing Fengjiu's apologetic expression, the man didn't say anything more. He just went forward with a gloomy face and filled some clean water, then turned around and left to walk downstream.
Seeing this, Fengjiu called out to him, "Big brother, please wait a moment."
"What are you doing?" The man stopped and looked back at Fengjiu with a dark face, his tone was not very friendly.
Feng Jiu smiled and said, "I came into the mountains to collect herbs, but I got lost accidentally. I want to ask if there is any way to get out of this forest faster?"
The man glanced at Fengjiu, his gaze lingering on the medicine basket for a moment, and then said, "The fastest way out of the mountain is to follow this water source down." With that, he hurried away.
"Thank you." Feng Jiu said loudly, and looked at the water source flowing down. Of course she knew to follow the water source, but how long would it take
Although she was free now, she did not want to stay in the forest for too long. She sighed lightly and continued walking down with the medicine basket on her back, thinking that after she got out of the lush forest, she could fly on her sword and save some steps.
Downstream of the water source, the man who had met Feng Jiu earlier handed the water to a middle-aged man in his fifties to drink, and then asked worriedly: "Father, how do you feel? Are you feeling better?"
"I feel much better after resting for a while." The middle-aged man let out a light breath and squinted his eyes while leaning against a big tree.
On the side, there were several reserved men, who looked to be around thirty to fifty years old. There was also an old man in grey clothes, with an exquisite small medicine box on his waist, who seemed to be a doctor.
They all surrounded the middle-aged man who was sitting there, and their brows could not hide their worry.
"I didn't expect that the alchemists and doctors of Huaxian Sect were also unable to help. In this case, we can only go to Tianyang Sect to have a look." The gray-clothed old man sighed, looked at the middle-aged man, and said: "Master, don't worry. There are many people with superb medical skills in this world. As long as you can meet them, you will be fine."
"Forget it. I have given up hope. Even the Medical Saint and Alchemy Saint of Huaxian Sect said there is nothing they can do. What else can I do? Life and death are determined by fate. So let it be! I don't want to struggle anymore. Let's go back!"
He had a tired look on his face. He had been running around looking for doctors for several months. Every doctor he met said that he could not help and asked for help from others. In the past few months, we have visited three of the four major sects, and now only Tianyang Sect is left.
However, if the other three couldn't do it, how could the Tianyang Sect possibly have a solution? It seemed that this was God's will, so he didn't want to force it anymore. It would be better to go back to the family to arrange the family affairs before his body reached the end, so as to avoid chaos in the family when he passed away in the future.
When everyone heard his words, they were speechless for a while. They had searched for so long, asked so many doctors with superb medical skills, and asked some high-level alchemists for medicine, but none of them had a treatment method or suitable medicine. Maybe, there was really no other way.
Just when everyone was feeling depressed, they suddenly heard the sound of a cheerful song humming. The tune seemed a little different from what they were used to, and the sound permeated the mountains and forests, echoing in the air, and it was impossible to tell from which direction it came.
