[Red House] That natural stay

"Okay...it's better." After a long silence, Mo Jue replied stiffly.He was extremely sensitive to the outside world, and only answered after confirming that the human in front of him was really harmless.It's just that his body was still tense, which made him not as calm as he seemed on the surface.

Who is the old man? He has seen too many people with his eyes.Even though Mo Jue hid it well, he could still see the young man's guard against him at a glance.

"Don't be nervous, the old man won't hurt you." The rich voice was like an ancient bell, full of strength despite the vicissitudes of life.Step by step, he slowly approached the boy beside the bed, and exchanged his sincerity for his trust.

Mo Jue's spirit was stretched to the extreme in an instant, and his quietly moving body allowed him to occupy a favorable position in case of unexpected accidents.Black and white eyes stared at the old man approaching step by step.

【Mo Jue, you don't have to be so nervous.According to the system analysis, the person in front of him was not malicious. 】

The helpless voice of the system sounded.But the boy still hasn't changed at all, he believes in the system.It's just that the instinct of the body does not allow him to relax.

Finally, the old man stopped three steps away from the bed.He did not continue to approach, although the young man was still expressionless and calm, but he understood that this was the limit of this child.I couldn't help but sighed in my heart, I don't know what the handsome young man in front of me has gone through to be so guarded against others.But thinking of my own diagnosis when I first picked up the boy, if I wait for another hour and a half in the evening, maybe... hey, no matter where it is, as long as there are people, there will be fights.

"It's time to change the medicine, you are seriously injured." The old man smiled and pointed at the boy's open neckline.

Mo Jue also lowered his head in doubt, since he woke up he felt a burst of coolness.It's just that the unfamiliar environment made him subconsciously ignore this feeling.Looking closely now, there are several layers of something similar to medical gauze wrapped around the chest in the middle, and there is a faint fragrance.

"System, what is this?" I must be injured here.

[This is a treatment method unique to this time and space, called traditional Chinese medicine.What you put on your body is called herbal medicine. 】

In the interstellar era, Chinese medicine has long been annihilated.Instead, it is advanced technology. When you are sick, you only need to drink a tube of synthetic medicine.Of course, the artificial human body is made of special materials, so it will not produce a series of human reactions.The body is damaged, and the system will start to regenerate.

herbs?Mo Jue looked up at what the old man was holding in his hand.Like a green colloid, the smell it emits is exactly the same as the one on your own.

"Why don't you activate the regeneration function?" Continued to communicate with the system in the brain, this body is very weak.

[Uh, escaping from the Federation has already consumed a lot of energy.So some features have been turned off. 】

The system is also very distressed, otherwise it would have transformed this body long ago.There is no other suitable container for Android [-].

"Oh." Mo Jue replied indifferently, he didn't have any idea about these, anyway, the system will solve them.It's just that according to the memory of body fusion in the brain, if it is too weak, it must become stronger.

When in the Federation, Robot No. [-] was implanted with a combat system.So what he is good at is only how to fight and how to take the life of the enemy.Although human emotions have gradually developed, the understanding of human society is limited to some things that can be seen with the eyes.Sometimes I don't quite understand what I see.Unlike the system, after developing feelings, they began to consciously collect other information besides combat information.

From the old man's point of view, the boy who didn't make a sound was thinking about the credibility of his words.He didn't rush him either, but waited quietly.After a while, the boy sitting on the bed tilted his head, looked at him without blinking, and said in a voice that was unique to this age: "Well, will it become stronger?"

The old man was stunned and didn't understand what he meant for a while.But the young man's ignorant but yearning gaze was too 'lethal', and his still thoughts flew up in an instant. "Of course it will become stronger. Apply these medicines to the wound and it will become stronger after it heals." Although he felt that the boy's question was a bit strange, he still answered seriously.

Seeing the suddenly enlightened expression of the young man opposite, the old man felt relieved.Although I don't know how he saw the 'sudden realization' from the expressionless face.Perhaps there are special interpretation techniques?

Mo Jue stretched out her tender little hand and blinked her eyes.Accurately convey their meaning.

"You apply it yourself?" the old man said hesitantly.Although he was very skeptical, the boy's firm eyes made him pass the medicine bowl in his hand.Then he turned and left tactfully.

What he didn't know was that if he hesitated for a few more seconds, Mo Jue would get up and snatch it.Although he was seriously injured, his desire to become stronger made him desperate.

"The system, can it absorb energy?" Getting stronger = energy, this is his understanding.

【...Mo Jue, this is something that humans can only use, and the system cannot absorb the energy in it. 】

Reluctantly, he explained in the way Mo Jue could understand best. Although he was used to all kinds of nonsensical questions from the other party, why did he still feel tired?Why.

"Then how do you use this to become stronger?" Mo Jue was puzzled, staring at the green thing in his hand.Are you going to eat it?It seems to be like this in memory.

[Take off your shirt first, and remove the cloth on your chest.Wait, first remove the original medicines together! 】

In this way, under the guidance of the system, Mo Jue finally changed the medicine by himself after an hour.

As soon as he put on his shirt, the door curtain was lifted again.

"Have you changed? You must be hungry after lying down for so long, right? Come, eat a bowl of noodles." The old man approached with a smile, and put the bowl in his hand on the table not far from Mo Jue.

The boy blinked, the smell he had never smelled before made him swallow subconsciously.The stomach also made a loud sound in coordination.What is this again?

"What's the matter? Don't you like to eat?" Seeing that Mo Jue just stared but didn't move, the old man asked with a slight smile.

"What is this?" Subconsciously asked, something called hunger occupied all his thoughts, and he forgot the principle of finding the system when there is a problem.

The old man was taken aback, and took a careful look at Mo Jue.After confirming that he really didn't know what it was, he realized that the problem seemed a little serious.Even if you are a child of a wealthy family, you will not know noodles, right?Thinking back to every move since the boy woke up, he understood where the weird feeling that had been lingering in his heart came from.

"Do you remember your name?" He asked tentatively.

"Mo Jue."

"Where do you live?"

[Wait, Mo Jue.You can't tell. 】

"Why?" The boy who was about to answer from memory was suddenly interrupted, and frowned in dissatisfaction.Although he didn't understand where this emotion came from, it still made him feel uncomfortable instinctively.

【Did you forget what I told you?Now we don't know much about the condition of this body. To be honest, the risk of being exposed is too great. 】

Why did it think that Mo Jue's strong sense of autonomy would be an advantage when he was on the battlefield?

"Oh, I see." If there is a disagreement between the system and the host, just analyze the pros and cons for him.

"I can't remember clearly." Mo Jue said.

"Then how did you fall off the cliff, remember?"

Shaking his head again.

The conversation between the two ended here. Although the juvenile was somewhat different from ordinary amnesia, the old man didn't think much about it.After all, the most indispensable thing in the world is all kinds of strange diseases.

"Since this is the case, you can recuperate here with peace of mind." The old man said, "This is food to fill your stomach. Hurry up and eat while it's hot." Then he said.

The boy nodded.

In this way, Mo Jue lived in this valley.According to the system's explanation, the regenerative function has been shut down, and only human methods can be used to strengthen this body.And that old man has such ability.Moreover, this valley also contains energy that the system can absorb, although it is very little, it is better than nothing.

Two years have passed in the blink of an eye.This paradise is still the same as before, with the floating fragrance of flowers, and the years are quiet and beautiful.The sun slanted and shone on the tall and straight young man, which really echoed the sentence: Moshang is like jade, and his son is unparalleled in the world.

"Xiao Jue, Xiao Jue..." The voice suddenly came from far and near.

The boy lying in the grass moved, and his two small fan-like eyelashes swayed slightly as if blown by the wind.In a few seconds, the person has already moved towards the place where the sound came from.

As early as a year ago, Mo Jue had already worshiped the old man as his teacher.Follow him to learn Chinese medicine.The old man's name is Liaochen, and as for his age, it is said that he can't remember it clearly.With superb medical skills, even Mo Jue, a pseudo-human, sighed for a moment.As for why it was only for a moment, because even he didn't know how this inexplicable emotion came from, so he left it behind in a blink of an eye.

Mo Jue himself has the ability of photographic memory, coupled with the system, it is naturally like a divine help.No matter what he learns, he learns very fast. While lamenting the genius of the sky, Liao Chen is even more strict with him.It is also more attentive to teach.I vowed to pass on what I have learned all my life.

"Master, what's the matter?" He accurately found the old man squatting on the ground among a pile of weeds.

"Look, Xiaojue, what is this?" Liaochen excitedly raised the thing in his hand to show off.

"Ginseng." I judged this thing at a glance, not to mention Chen also kept a few trees in his collection, and after only one meeting, Mo Jue quickly called up the information in his mind for comparison with the real thing, so it was impossible not to recognize it.

"Well, that's right. Then guess how many years it is?"

"One hundred and two years." There was not even a pause.

"Oh? Tell me how you came to the conclusion." Liao Chen stroked his gray beard with an unpredictable expression.The satisfaction in his eyes almost overflowed.

"This ginseng looks like a human face, and only decades or hundreds of years old ginseng can look like this. The ginseng skin is dark, the ginseng body has dense iron lines, and the ginseng is rare. The most important point is that the ginseng skin has The scars left by the rotten ginseng every year are exactly one hundred and two." The young man's voice was as calm as water, but there was a sense of confidence.

"Hahaha, that's right. He is indeed my apprentice." Liaochen patted the boy's shoulder with pride and pride. "It's too old to be a teacher. Now, it's your young people's world."

"Master, you are not old." The boy said suddenly, staring at him with black and white eyes, his words were full of seriousness.

Liao Chen was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed out loud.Although they have lived together for two years, the pure temperament of the boy always makes him happy.
