Chapter 123 The Journal of a Ginseng Picker

Sherika nodded. “That’s right. Dr. Barrett, I now give this journal to you and tell you what these symbols.

mean.

Blinking in disbelief, William reconfirmed by asking, “Miss Cabello, are you really going to give me such an immeasurably valuable journal?”

With a smile, she said, “Dr. Barrett, I was originally a cripple. It was you who brought me back to life. I have nothing that I can offer to repay such kindness. Besides, this journal is worthless to me. Perhaps you can save more lives after obtaining this journal,”

He fell silent. After a long time, he said, I can’t accept your favor for no reason. How about this? If I can harvest the ginsengs recorded in this journal, I will give you half of the earnings after I sell them.”

At that, Sherika involuntarily laughed and waved her hands again and again. “No, no. You don’t have to share the profit with me.”

However, William was persistent. “This is the hard–earned wealth that your father has accumulated all his life. How can I take it for free? Alright then. Let’s call it a deal.

Powerless against William’s persistence, Sherika had no choice but to give in. Then, she sighed gently and said, “Dr. Barrett, you are a kind man. I am fortunate to have encountered

you.”

Since he had nothing to do in the afternoon, William stayed behind in the small courtyard, meditating and cultivating. Once the sky turned dark, he continued treating Sherika.

After several rounds of treatment, William realized that his body would become extremely weak whenever he used his Vision Force. Yet, the weaker he got, the better he was at cultivating the Tathagata’s Breathing Technique, especially in terms of mental strength. He could feel its apparent improvement.

Furthermore, he vaguely felt that there was an inexplicable connection between his Vision Force and mental strength. After feeling that he was full of beans and refreshed at about 7.00PM, he began treating Sherika.

The treatment process was still the same as before. Sherika habitually put on the bare–back dress. After that, she calmly lay on the sofa and received her treatment.

Whenever William pressed his hands against her fair back, she felt extremely comfortable. At the same time, the Golden Qi from the Golden Needles flowed into her body, repairing her nerves and opening up her meridians.

The treatment this time lasted until past 11.00PM.

This time, William connected the muscles and nerves of Sherika’s lower limbs. Her eyes lit up as she felt the sensation in her legs slowly recovering, and she asked with excitement, “Dr. Barrett, am I able to walk

now?”

William smiled at her and answered, “Don’t rush. You haven’t moved around for nearly a year, so your muscles are currently still weak. Here, let me give you a massage.
