The karst cave at the foot of the autumn mountain did not have access to sunlight. It was lit up by the oil lamps on the walls of the cave, and Zhou Hao did not know how many days he had been unconscious for.

However, Li Ruolan told her that according to the biological clock, she ate four meals here, which meant that Zhou Hao was in a coma for about two days.

And Li Ruolan had also said that the Dr Gongsun had treated her quite well. There was rice and dried meat here, as well as some wild vegetables that could not be seen in the city.

Inside the cave, there was also an underground spring. The water quality was very good and he could drink it directly. Moreover, it was much better than any mountain spring water sold on the market.

"Then who exactly is Dr Gongsun?" Zhou Hao asked, he was rather against the Dr Gongsun.

"He said that he had lived in this mountain for dozens of years. Usually, he would rely on collecting mountain herbs to trade for rice, oil, salt, sugar and other items."

Zhou Hao did not comment, "Then is he really a doctor?"

Li Ruolan said: "I'm not sure either, he said she's called Dr Gongsun, but I think that his medical skills are indeed brilliant.

"Originally, when we fell down, your right hand had a fracture, and he helped you make it. Furthermore, you only woke up after drinking his medicine."

Zhou Hao looked at his right hand that was holding onto the wooden board, then said to Li Ruolan: "How did we fall?"

"I don't know. I was here when I woke up."

Li Ruolan said: "According to Dr Gongsun, that piece of mountain rock broke through a thin wall on top of the cave and even caused us to fall down, but luckily it's like that, otherwise we would have been buried alive by the mountain torrent."

She pointed over there, and Zhou Hao saw that there was a huge mountain rock and a large amount of shattered rocks there. The cave wall that was smashed through was also blocked by pieces of sand and rocks.

At this time, Zhou Hao was lying on a mat outside of Dr Gongsun's hut. Having just escaped from a calamity, he had suffered a very heavy injury.

However, just as Li Ruolan had said, the Dr Gongsun's medical skills were extremely high, so it was unknown what kind of medicine he gave Zhou Hao.

However, the Dr Gongsun did not allow Zhou Hao to recuperate in the hut and confidently said that the hut was too small to accommodate Zhou Hao.

"Teacher Li, are you going to stay here and do whatever you want with the Old Man?" When she thought of how Li Ruolan was going to stay and serve the Dr Gongsun, Zhou Hao felt extremely uncomfortable in her heart.

"Actually, the people of Dr Gongsun are not bad, but after living in the mountains for dozens of years, his temper is a little strange." Li Ruolan held a bowl of broth and slowly fed it into Zhou Hao's mouth.

This was the meat broth she stewed herself, because Dr Gongsun said that Zhou Hao's body was extremely weak, and could only use this kind of liquid food to replenish his strength.

"Teacher, I don't want you to stay here because of me. I won't be able to rest in peace for the rest of my life." Zhou Hao said to Li Ruolan, but Li Ruolan pursed his lips and shook his head, he did not say anything.

In the period of time after Zhou Hao woke up, the Dr Gongsun that he hated the most had actually disappeared all day.

She would occasionally walk out of the cave, and help Zhou Hao change his medicine, or give him some medicinal herbs, so that she could boil a pot for him to consume.

In the face of Zhou Hao's gnashing, gnashing teeth eyes, he was always full of satisfaction as he revealed his incomplete teeth and laughed: "How about it, you hate me a lot right? Hehe, that little girl is going to stay with me in the mountains.

"Even though I'm old, I can still live another ten to twenty years. If you like that girl, you can come and pick her up after I die."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you after I recover?" Zhou Hao's eyes revealed a sinister light. After all, this was not the first time he killed someone.

"Then aren't you afraid that I'll secretly drug you?" Dr Gongsun's smile was also somewhat sinister.

"Besides, although I'm disabled, but …" He lifted his left palm and slammed it onto the ground beside Zhou Hao.

The ground was filled with extremely hard rocks, but when Dr Gongsun retracted his left hand, a deep imprint was left there.

Seeing that, Zhou Hao felt a chill down his spine, and looked at Dr Gongsun in surprise.

That day, Baldy's brother had already displayed his true martial arts to Zhou Hao. Although he could break the tree with his bare hands, it was far from being comparable to this Old Man.

Zhou Hao even suspected that this Old Man could be one of those ultimate experts that lived in seclusion in the mountains.

"I don't think your brain is as tough as this rock." Dr Gongsun patted the dust off his hands, "Take good care of your wounds, don't think of any bad ideas."

It was unknown whether it was because Zhou Hao's recovery ability was strong or because Dr Gongsun's medical skills were astonishing, but after resting for three days, Zhou Hao was able to stand up straight.

In the past few days, Li Ruolan meticulously took care of Zhou Hao, gave him medicine, fed him food, and even helped wipe his body.

Other than that, Li Ruolan also had to help Dr Gongsun cook and clean up that thatched hut.

It was unknown if it was on purpose, but the Dr Gongsun really treated Li Ruolan as a servant, and even made Zhou Hao massage his back and shoulders in front of him, making him grit his teeth in anger.

Zhou Hao knew that his mother and the others would definitely be very worried about him. Furthermore, the stocks that Zhao Yuqin had bought for them would be sold by the middle of the month.

If he hadn't been able to get out by then, he would have lost all that money. Thus, Zhou Hao had to escape. Of course, he also had to bring Li Ruolan with him.

On this day, while the Dr Gongsun was missing again, Zhou Hao came to the few pitch black forks in the road.

Looking from here, the tunnels were extremely deep and pitch-black. It was just as the Dr Gongsun said, this underground cave was connected to all directions, if one did not know the way, it was very easy to get lost.

But Zhou Hao's best weapon was that Superman's intuition.

However, what surprised Zhou Hao was that no matter how hard he tried to concentrate, he could not sense anything from where he stood.

"Did I lose my intuition?" Zhou Hao muttered to himself.

At this time, Li Ruolan walked over, "Zhou Hao, what are you doing here? You aren't thinking of finding your own way out, are you?"

She pulled Zhou Hao's hand, "Don't, this way you will get lost, and then you will never be able to come back.

Dr Gongsun also said that as long as your body is fully recovered, he will bring you out. "

"What about you?" Zhou Hao looked deeply at Li Ruolan, "I can't leave you behind and leave by yourself."

In the dim cave, Zhou Hao's eyes shone brightly with determination.

Upon making contact with his gaze, a strange feeling rose in Li Ruolan's heart.

She shook her head, "I have already promised Dr Gongsun to stay here. This is also the reason why he saved you.

Unknowingly, she no longer called herself "Teacher".

"No way!" Zhou Hao held onto Li Ruolan's hand tightly and said resolutely, "I can't leave you here alone!"

"What are you two doing?" The voice of the Dr Gongsun suddenly came over, "A teacher and a student saying sweet nothings, aren't you afraid of people making fun of you?"

He came out from the left path, and sneered at Zhou Hao and Li Ruolan.

Hearing Dr Gongsun's words, Li Ruolan's body trembled, and she anxiously let go of Zhou Hao's hand.

Zhou Hao glared at the Dr Gongsun, "Even though you saved both our lives, you don't have the authority to imprison the Teacher Li here!"

"Whether I have the right or not has nothing to do with you. Anyway, this girl has already agreed."

Dr Gongsun curled his lips, "If you make me unhappy, then I might as well let this girl marry me.

I can't get married, but it's good to have a young and beautiful wife to look at. "

"How dare you!" Zhou Hao roared.

"Why would I not dare? As long as I give her a few pills, she'll listen to me. " The Dr Gongsun sneered.

"I'll kill you now!" Zhou Hao was like an enraged wild beast, rushing towards Dr Gongsun.

In his rage, he felt as if there was a current of air flowing through his body, causing his blood to boil and giving him the urge to vent.

Zhou Hao's speed was extremely fast, in the blink of an eye he had already arrived in front of Dr Gongsun, and punched him in the chest.

"Zhou Hao, don't!" Li Ruolan, who was behind them, quickly spoke out to stop them.

The Dr Gongsun moved his hand, and with a turn, he nimbly dodged to the side, while Zhou Hao's right fist landed on the cave wall behind him.

With a "bang", a few cracks appeared on the cave wall where Zhou Hao had struck.

As Zhou Hao's right hand had not fully healed yet, this touched his sore spot, making him feel a heart-wrenching pain.

But the pain only served to deepen his anger, and with a roar, he turned towards the Dr Gongsun to grab him.

When Dr Gongsun saw that his punch had shattered the hard walls of the cave, his eyes revealed not only shock, but also joy.

Seeing him grab at his body, Dr Gongsun released the walking stick in his right hand, using only the walking stick on the left to support his body, at the same time using his right hand to open Zhou Hao's arm, and striking Zhou Hao on the forehead.

Zhou Hao felt a violent vibration, causing his head to hurt, and the figure of Dr Gongsun in front of him to become blurry.

However, he shook his head a little and then punched at Dr Gongsun's abdomen even more furiously.

Dr Gongsun didn't think that Zhou Hao would not faint even after receiving a palm strike from him. He was caught off guard and sent flying with a single punch.

However, Zhou Hao didn't let him go, and rushed over before he even landed on the ground.

Dr Gongsun threw away his remaining walking stick in the air. When Zhou Hao rushed over, he nimbly somersaulted backwards to avoid Zhou Hao's hand.

at the same time, he extended both of his palms and heavily slapped on both of Zhou Hao's temples. This time, Zhou Hao finally collapsed weakly, and fainted with his eyes tightly shut.

Dr Gongsun also fell to the ground. He pressed on the abdomen that was hit and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Looking at the unconscious Zhou Hao, he laughed: "I never thought it would actually work, looks like this brat is really suitable, but I have to hurry, there isn't much time left."
