The Medical Guru

Chapter 1350 Increasing Cultivation Speed Tenfold!

In fact…

Fang Qiu could have waited for the rescue team outside to dig them out of the cave. Anyway, the corpse poison and bacteria in this tomb were not harmful to him at all.

However, for the other people, the situation was different.

They had opened the tomb door before going down the tomb. In this way, there was airflow in the tomb passage, but this was the case only in the outer tomb passage.

The inner tomb passage and the main tomb chamber contained more bacteria and corpse toxins. But because the opened tomb door acted as an air vent, they were safe when they were in the tomb for a short period of time. But now, when the tomb passage collapsed, the airflow through the vent was cut off. When the air inside decreased, the temperature inside the tomb would slowly rise. Then, more bacteria and corpse toxins would emerge and would spread at a more rapid pace. If they sat around and waited for the engineering team to save them, it would be too late. After staying inside for two or three hours, everyone would be infected by the bacteria and become seriously ill when they got out.

Therefore…

Fang Qiu chose to dig with his bare hands.

“Consider it my repayment for taking the bamboo roll.”

With that in mind, Fang Qiu began to dig quickly.

In the beginning…

Everyone shook their heads, for none believed he could dig a way out. No one knew how large the collapsed area was outside. Whenever he dug out some sand, more sand would slide down and fill it up again. When would this helpless situation end?

However, in just three minutes…

They found Fang Qiu had made quite a large pit. Even better, he dug out the robber hole’s entrance buried by sand and stones.

“This robber hole was dug from the top downwards, at a slanting angle through the ground. Thus, only a small amount of sand and rocks could enter the hole. At most, the sand has filled only half of the hole. Everyone, get ready. Let’s get out through this robber hole.”

With this…

Fang Qiu immediately began to dig along the hole.

“The tomb passage has collapsed. Is it safe to go through this robber hole?”

A student asked, “Will the hole collapse when we are halfway up there?”

“Very unlikely.”

The archaeological captain shook his head and said, “Do you remember the skeletons under the mechanism of Flipping-plank Quicksand? Judging from that, this hole must have existed for a long time. When we came in, the robber hole was in a good condition still. It proves that it is very stable. Moreover, before these tomb raiders started digging, they would have conducted an investigation and chosen the best place to make the hole. Although this outer tomb passage has collapsed, the robber hole is still secure. It means the hole has a solid layer of soil. We can get out of the tomb from it.”

Hearing this, everyone was relieved.

Sure enough…

Fang Qiu dug with his bare hands for two minutes and opened up the space.

“Rope.”

Fang Qiu called out.

Lu Jinzhou immediately handed over a safety rope.

“I’ll go out first. Grab the rope and come out one by one.”

Fang Qiu grabbed one end of the rope and quickly climbed out of the robber hole. Within the hole was a slope that led to the surface. Fang Qiu was afraid the people behind him couldn’t climb up, so he took the safety rope.

Soon after…

After he got out of the robber hole, Fang Qiu pulled the others out one by one with the safety rope.

When everyone came out…

They couldn’t help gasping for breath.

When they saw daylight again, they were wild with joy.

Fang Qiu looked around.

He found he was on an inclined slope near the tomb entrance. This tomb seemed to run through the high mountain.

“Fortunately, it’s in the opposite direction.”

Fang Qiu stole a glance at the wild relic and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

If this tomb was too close to the relic…

It might not be easy to rent that area and grow medicinal herbs.

Over there…

Everyone calmed down.

One after another, they turned to look at Fang Qiu, their eyes full of gratitude.

“Lucky for us all, you came with us into the tomb. Otherwise, all of us would have died there.”

“Yeah, I feel uncomfortable whenever I think of those large centipedes. I feel itchy all over. I have to take a good shower when I go back.”

“It doesn’t have to be like that. If we hadn’t kept walking inside, the outer tomb passage might not have collapsed. We should have exited before we entered the inner tomb passage. In that case, nothing serious would have happened. But it was hazardous inside. It was quite scary. Without the master’s protection, I wouldn’t have dared to go deeper.”

“Hum, when the master pushed the two big stones open, the Dragon-breaking Stones also moved backward. It’s very likely that the movements caused the outer tomb passage to collapse. However, we should thank the master. How could we have found such a big tomb if it weren’t for him? How could we have entered and come back safely?”

As they spoke…

Everyone expressed their thanks to Fang Qiu.

The archaeological team members and Lu Jinzhou even walked to Fang Qiu, shook hands with him and expressed their gratitude.

“Well.”

After he shook hands with everyone, Fang Qiu immediately nodded and waved his hand and said, “This is what I should do. I explored a great tomb with you, didn’t I?”

After they heard what he said…

Everyone looked at each other and smiled.

Then, they strode away.

As they walked, they animatedly discussed the details of the tomb.

Soon…

They reached the tomb entrance.

Some members of the archaeological expedition team were assessing the situation outside. At this time, they were anxiously trying to contact the rescue workers. When they saw the group coming out of the tomb, they were stunned and instantly relaxed.

The archaeological members stayed where they were, while Fang Qiu and Lu Jinzhou returned to the camp with the students.

When they returned to the camp…

It was already sunrise.

It was already the third day!

When they appeared, everyone there breathed a long sigh of relief. These people outside the tomb also received the news that the tomb passage had collapsed. Thus, they thought the others had been buried inside.

The staff of the institute of archaeology guarding the campsite confirmed that everyone was okay. Then, they rushed to the tomb entrance.

Over at the site…

The students who didn’t enter the tomb gathered around and bombarded the rest with questions.

They heard about Fang Qiu’s performance in the tomb. Fang Qiu dug out a passage with his bare hands and saved everyone from danger. After they heard this, these students looked at Fang Qiu with admiration and respect.

Just as everyone was listening with interest and discussing enthusiastically…

Wu Sanqing, who was busy in the tent, suddenly poked his head out. He glanced around and finally fixed his eyes on Fang Qiu. Then he waved to Fang Qiu with a look of delight.

Fang Qiu immediately walked over.

He came to the tent.

“It’s done.”

Wu Sanqing took out an arm and handed it to Fang Qiu, with a proud and smug look on his face.

Fang Qiu took it and had a look.

The arm was precisely the same size as the arms of the wooden puppets he saw in the Zangjiang relic. They looked exactly alike. Even the details were identical.

“Well done.”

Fang Qiu gave Wu Sanqing a thumbs-up with satisfaction.

“Of course.”

Wu Sanqing smiled proudly and said, “These skills were passed down from my ancestors.”

At this point…

After a glance at the other students, Wu Sanqing could not help asking, “I’ve done what I promised you. When will you teach me kung fu?”

“Martial arts practitioners are divided into different levels.”

Fang Qiu said, “Nowadays, there are three types of cultivators in different realms in Wulin: martial arts practitioners, Martial Superiors, and gurus. Martial arts practitioners are divided into nine levels, and Martial Superiors have nine classes. Be a Martial Superior first. I will get someone to contact you later, and he will help you to become a Martial Superior.”

“A Martial Superior.”

Hearing this, Wu Sanqing became even more thrilled. He grabbed Fang Qiu and asked, “Which realm are you in? I want to be as powerful as you!”

“I’m a guru!”

Fang Qiu replied.

“Wow!”

Wu Sanqing was shocked and hurriedly asked, “Then, when can I become a guru?”

“Well…”

Fang Qiu carefully observed Wu Sanqing from head to toe. Then, after he kept quiet for a long time, he helplessly gave a wry smile and said, “In your next life!”

“Ah?”

Wu Sanqing paused, looked at Fang Qiu for a long time, and said gloomily, “You said that because you are jealous of my talent, right?”

“You can think of it that way, as long as you’re happy about it.”

Fang Qiu said with a smile.

“You are a guru, but why must I wait until the next life?”

Wu Sanqing asked.

“It is because I’m handsome.”

Fang Qiu smiled.

“Humph.”

Wu Sanqing sneered disdainfully and said, “In terms of handsome appearances, I can become a guru in a year!”

“Alas.”

Fang Qiu patted Wu Sanqing on the shoulder and said, “With your level of self-cognition, I’m afraid you will have to wait for two lives before you can become a guru.”

After that…

He turned away, ready to find a place to study the bamboo slips he brought out of the tomb.

“You’re just jealous. You’re jealous of my talent.”

“Wait and see. I’ll show you how capable I am. I’ll become a guru within three years. Absolutely!”

Wu Sanqing shouted behind Fang Qiu’s back.

But Fang Qiu waved his hand without looking back.

Over there…

Everyone was engaged in a heated discussion about the large tomb, so they did not notice Wu Sanqing and Fang Qiu, let alone hear their conversation. Even when Wu Sanqing cried out at the top of his voice, no one turned to look at him.

Fang Qiu left the camp.

Quietly, he returned to the relic.

Instead of entering it, he sat cross-legged on the hill outside the relic, took out the bamboo slips, and began to read.

After Fang Qiu went through it…

He learned the motion route for the ancient guiding technique recorded in the bamboo slips. This method was not much different from the modern ones.

Notably, the bamboo slips emphasized that cultivators should practice Kung Fu at noon or midnight. During these two periods, they could absorb the essence of the sun and the moon while practicing Kung Fu. Moreover, a note said that these two periods were the best time to absorb the Qi of Heaven and Earth quickly.

Beyond that…

Even the 24 solar terms were recorded in the bamboo roll.

The 24 solar terms were also the key to practicing Kung Fu. In particular, the conversion period between two solar terms was also a perfect chance to practice Kung Fu!

After Fang Qiu finished reading the whole article…

He put away the bamboo slips and began to meditate with his eyes closed.magic

Only when it was close to noon did he begin to practice. It was because he wanted to verify the authenticity of the content in the bamboo slips.

After the exercise…

Sure enough, the speed of absorbing the Qi of Heaven and Earth during these periods was more than ten times faster than the normal speed.

“It is indeed effective!”

Fang Qiu was overjoyed.

This guiding technique was simply the supreme way to improve cultivation!
