Volume 6: The Key to the Demonic World Chapter 37 Don’t Say Such Youth is So Crazy

Mo Yi only felt a white mist in front of his eyes, and his body seemed to be wrapped in a warm current. His thoughts were suddenly interrupted, and he drifted aimlessly in the void, not knowing where he was.
In an instant, everything turned blood red, and all the limbs were pulled, broken, and torn apart. The intense pain almost made people collapse.
I wanted to scream, but no sound came out.
"Hey, you were so arrogant just now, how come you are worse than me?"
It seemed a familiar voice. Was it Wei Xingying? Mo Yi's consciousness suddenly returned. He opened his eyes and found himself lying on a patch of grass in a daze.
The birdsong and the fragrance of flowers filled the surroundings. It was exactly what I had seen when I first entered the cave. The sea of fire and lava seemed like just a dream. What was going on? Was I really dreaming?
He subconsciously looked at his arms, but found them empty. "Where's Lili?"
Mo Yi was startled and sat up with a sudden movement, but a hand held down his shoulder. " Don't worry, Lili is fine. No, it's a blessing in disguise. Old man You Lan is saving her!"
The person who spoke was Wei Xingying. He was standing beside Mo Yi with disheveled hair, pale face and strange expression. It was hard to tell whether he wanted to cry or laugh.
Thinking back to how Mo Yi would rather the three of them fall into the sea of fire and lava than let him go, Wei Xingying suddenly felt a real desire to make friends with the man in front of him. Although he knew that the two of them would never have a day when they would be like-minded, at least he knew that the other party was a man worth making close friends with and entrusting his life and death to.
"What's going on?" Mo Yi followed the direction of his finger and looked towards a thatched hut not far away. The door of the hut was ajar, and a refreshing herbal scent gradually wafted out from inside. It was not unpleasant, but instead made people feel suddenly calm.
"The old man who played a trick on us before seems to be You Lan himself. The sea of fire and lava were all hallucinations. We've been in this valley all along, but when we first entered, we inhaled his soul-bewitching incense, which is why we're experiencing these extreme hallucinations." Wei Xingying woke up before Mo Yi and seemed to have figured out some of the mysteries. After all, he was a half-baked doctor. But thinking back to those almost convincing hallucinations before, Wei Xingying still felt a chill. You Lan's soul-bewitching incense had reached such a level of sophistication that it could affect every nerve in the body.
"What does he want to do?" Mo Yi was concerned about other more important issues.
"I don't know what medicine he took that made him let us go so easily. Anyway, when I woke up, I heard him say that he wanted to check Lili's injuries and asked us to wait outside." When Wei Xingying repeated everything he had heard to Mo Yi, Mo Yi was stunned for a long time. He couldn't believe their good luck.
Although he had made that decision earlier, he had been betting that the other party wouldn't actually kill the three of them, but he hadn't expected that seeking medical treatment would be so smooth. He hadn't even opened his mouth to ask for help, and the other party had actually taken the initiative. This old man called You Lan was truly a monster.
Just as Mo Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the half-closed door suddenly opened, and a ruddy-faced old man with the appearance of a mischievous child slowly emerged from the room. It wasn't so much walking as floating, for his movements were so swift that you could barely see his feet. His fiery red hair and matching robes moved without a breeze, making him look like a moving ball of flame .
Remembering what Wei Xingying had said about the other party's identity and the fact that he had rescued Lili, Mo Yi actually walked forward respectfully and humbly bowed to the other party: "I apologize for the offense I caused you, Senior. I wonder how Lili is doing?"
At this moment, Wei Xingying behind him almost cried out in shock. Although he and Mo Yi were not familiar with each other at all, they had met quite a lot. In his impression, Mo Yi was always arrogant and unruly. When had he ever seen Mo Yi so humble, respectful and polite as he was today?
It seems that girl has really changed him a lot...
"What is the identity of that girl?!" The other party did not answer Mo Yi's question. He just flashed and appeared in front of Mo Yi in the blink of an eye.
Mo Yi was slightly stunned, as if he didn't understand why the other party asked this. He looked at him puzzledly and didn't respond.
"That girl has a very special physique, not like that of an ordinary person. What is her origin? If I'm not mistaken, she should have the blood of the Nine Yin Mysterious Wilderness. Moreover, there seem to be a lot of good things in her body. It's a pity that there are too many good things but she can't enjoy them all." The red-haired old man glanced into the house, and there was a gleam in his eyes, as if he had discovered something new.
Mo Yi and Wei Xingying exchanged a glance, and Wei Xingying interrupted, "She is the Chief Wizard Shamo who gave us the Ruoye tribe the recipe back then."
"The reincarnation of Kamui?" The other party muttered to himself thoughtfully, "No wonder. I mean, this soul is so scattered that it's not dead yet."
"Miracle doctor, what happened to Lili?" Mo Yi's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, but because of the other party's identity as a doctor, he didn't want to be too rash. However, he subconsciously ignored the other party's tone when he mentioned Kamami, which was a very familiar tone.
"The physical injuries are easy to deal with. I've already used the 'Green Rain Divine Needle' to reconnect her severed tendons. After ten days or half a month of rest, the tendons and veins will slowly begin to heal." Mo Yi was ecstatic when he heard this, but he didn't expect the other party to change the subject and throw him into the abyss again: "But the situation with her soul and consciousness is not so optimistic. I think you all know that before you sent her here, she had already lost her five senses and her soul had dissipated. Even if she could be saved, I'm afraid the best she could do is keep her body alive. To restore her consciousness..." The other party sighed regretfully and shook his head. "It's almost impossible."
These words undoubtedly declared Ying Lili brain dead. Mo Yi suddenly felt as if he had been thrown into a thousand-year-old ice. "But she still had a will to survive. She even shed tears before."
Mo Yi said hastily and unwillingly, as if he didn't believe what the other party said.
"That's what I meant by her being extraordinary. I can sense it too. This girl seems to have a very strong will to survive. An ordinary person in her situation would have died long ago, but she's managed to hold on for so long. It's not easy." The other person said as he shook his head, "Forget it, let's just try and observe her for a few more days. Maybe a miracle will happen."
As soon as these words came out, Mo Yi felt as if he had been saved from a desperate situation, and he breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, as long as You Lan was willing to help, there was still a glimmer of hope. For Mo Yi at this moment, even if there was only a one in ten thousand, one in a billion chance, he would never let it go. He would go to great lengths to save her, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he would not let go.
Because he knew that if he missed her, his life would be over.
He was about to go into the house to check on Gong Lili, but the old man grabbed him and said, "Don't rush to see your lover. I just lit some calming incense for her and am trying to summon her scattered souls. You'll only get in her way if you go in now."
"But..." Mo Yi was interrupted rudely by the other party before he could finish his words. The other party frowned and shouted rudely: "No buts, if I say no, it's no. If you want to save her, you have to listen to me!"
Mo Yi had to stop when he heard that, and looked at the half-open door helplessly, his brows furrowed even deeper. At this time, he naturally hoped that he could be with her. Although she was unconscious at this moment, he always felt that she could feel him.
This is the tacit understanding between him and her, an unspoken tacit understanding.
Mo Yi looked at the thatched cottage with reluctance, but he had to compromise. A doctor's duty was paramount, and after all, they were the ones who needed help. Meanwhile, the other person's attention was clearly no longer on Gong Lili. He looked Mo Yi up and down, his eyes filled with admiration. His next words nearly dislocated Mo Yi's jaw: "I've always thought you were an interesting guy, loyal and righteous! You're a man, very much my style. Are you interested in becoming my disciple and staying here to learn from me?"
What did he say? Become his disciple?
Mo Yi paused awkwardly and looked at the serious expression on the other person's face to make sure he was not joking. He subconsciously looked back at Wei Xingying behind him, only to find that Wei Xingying's face was filled with jealousy, envy and hatred. You know, the person who said this was not an ordinary person, that was You Lan, the most famous doctor in the history of the Ruoye tribe!
It is said that You Lan only accepted one disciple in his life, and that was the imperial physician Zheng who died before at the foot of Yonghui City. Although why this guy was exiled here is still a mystery, his initiative to accept a disciple is something that is out of reach for others, at least for Wei Xingying, it is something he has been longing for.
Unfortunately, the person the other party had his eyes on was Mo Yi. What made Wei Xingying want to bang his head against the wall was that the silly boy didn't seem to appreciate it at all. Mo Yi's eyebrows raised slightly, and then he said something respectful but with a hint of alienation: "Senior, I appreciate your kindness..."
"To do it or not?" The old man named You Lan was quite straightforward. He interrupted Mo Yi's empty words and sharply asked him the question again.
Mo Yi was slightly startled, his handsome eyebrows slightly raised, and he answered decisively: "No."
