CHAPTER 4: I AM YOUR GUIDE

"Who are you?" Wun Bei called.

"Son? Are you okay." The man replied.

"I am your Guide." That voice whispered again.

"Where are you!"

"I am here!" That voice sounded in his ears.

"Son! What are you screaming!"

"Didn't you hear that sound old man?" He asked.

"What sound son?" 

"Call me! Call my name!" That sounded again.

"Ugh... who are you!" 

Wun Bei mind was in turmoil he doesn't know if he is crazy or he just hallucinating!

"How can I call you!"

"Son! Stop that!" 

"Son! Just wait here I will call the Herbalist."

*swift

Then the man walked away.

Note: Herbalist is the same as doctors but they use herbal medicine.

"I am your Guide." 

"Guide?"

"Yes."

"Call me...Call me now!"

Then without hesitation, he called the Guide.

"Guide comes out!"

Then...

A transparent screen appeared in front of him.

"Ah!" 

He was taken aback. He really covered his eyes but it was see-through.

"What is this?" 

He tried to touch it but it was nothing just like air.

"I am here now." That voice became clearer. It was an old man voice.

"Is this?"

"Yes... what you saw is me. The guide of your dreams and goals!"

"Then... what can you do?"

"As it says, "Guide", A guide will help you to become strong. In this world of mortal or the mortals call this world as Immortal World. It is where magical people live."

"This... I know it already since that old man told me."

"I will teach you now. Please follow." The old man voice ordered.

"Just say "Defragment" if you wanted to close this. Say "Fragment" if you wanted to open this."

"Okay?" The old man voice sounded.

"Yes... I will do it!"

Then without hesitation, he blurted.

"Defragment!"

"Ah!"

"It's gone?"

'It was really true! That screen really disappeared!' Wun Bei thought.

'Is it a Fragment?'

He called that word.

"Fragment!"

"Ah!" The screen suddenly appeared in front of him.

'This..'

"Now do you believe me?" The old man voice sounded.

"Yes, I believe you." Wun Bei replied.

"Now there are more. Please listen carefully." 

*nod

"When you say "Form" then your 3d body will shows. From your outer body to cells. If you say "Table" your status will shows. Such as your names, cultivation and techniques."

"Okay?" The old man voice sounded.

*nod

Then Wun Bei tested out.

"Form!"

He saw his body. 

"You got it correctly." The old man voice sounded.

Then that old man continued.

"If you want to see your body. Just say, "Cell, Tissue, Organs and Outer."

"Okay?" The old man voice sounded.

*nod 

Wun Bei nodded.

Then he utters the part he wanted to check the most.

"Organs!" 

Then his muscle was see-through. His heart, lungs, and so on. 

"You got it correctly." The old man voice sounded.

Then that old man continued.

"If you wanted to show which part of the organs just move the screen, you can test that."

*nod

He nodded and do what that old man says.

When he saw his lower half he checked it.

"My bones were fractured!" He called.

"Tissues!" He called.

Then his bone tissue was see-through. 

"This..."

What he saw was his deformed tissue.

'How can I solve this?'  Wun Bei thought.

"Now did you know how?" That old man voice sounded.

"Yes. I know now." Wun Bei replied.

"Then... since you are a guide, can you help me solve my bone fracture?" Wun Bei called.

"As a guide, I can do so. But it is not my duty to take action. As a guide, I will help you solve this."  That old man voice replied.

Then that old man continued.

"You need someone who knows how to make medicine."  

*nod

"Son!" 

"Herbalist my son is already awoken. Can you help me? He is screaming and shouting." That man called him son said worriedly.

"Okay. I will do my best." The Herbalist replied.

And he scanned Wun Bei's body by looking.

"This man is the one who will help you. I will tell how and say to that old man." That old man voice sounded.

Then that old man continued.

"Ginger, onion, garlic, and coconut oil, Mary gold leaves, 5 mg of sulfur powder." 

"Herbalist thank you. But I'm okay now." Wun Bei said and then continued.

"Herbalist do you have this kind of medicine?" 

Then he utters the word one by one.

'This is a common medicine? Why is this youth asked me?' The herbalist thought then started to speak.

"Yes. I have it. What do you want to do with this child?" The Herbalist asked. 

"It is for my broken leg." He said.

"Broken leg? Your leg is already broken. It can't heal my child." The Herbalist said.

"Don't worry herbalist, I will just need your help, can you get that for me?" Wun Bei asked.

"Yes... I can. Just wait here." The Herbalist said and walked away.

"Guide?" Wun Bei called.

"Now you got it. Now when the medicine is here please tell the herbalist to concoct the medicine for you. The herbalist knows it." That old man voice sounded.

*nod

Note: Herbalist can concoct. Concoct means to mix the making medicine and make it as a pill. A pill is a capsule-like but shaped in a spherical object but it was small as a thumb.

Wun Bei nodded and waited for the herbalist to came back.

On his left side. His father was looking at him crazily! He is talking by himself!

"Son? Why are talking by yourself? Why did you tell the Herbalist to get that common medicines?" That man called him son talked.

"Umm... old man it is my medicine. Just wait after this." Wun Bei reassured than man.

*nod

That man can only nod.

Then the herbalist came back.

"Child here are your medicines."  The Herbalist said.

"Can you concoct it?"  Wun Bei asked.

"I can... but-"

"It is okay. Please concoct it for me." 

"Okay. I will do my best."

The Herbalist did not know what to say but he can only do his job.

Then the herbalist mixed it all. After a long wait, it formed into a pill. 

"Umm.. child? I think I made a mistake. The pill I made is lower grade. Is that okay?" The Herbalist told.

Note: Lower Grade is the grade of the finished product. Situation: Pill Making

"It is okay."  Wun Bei replied.

"Then child what is it for?"

Without even listening to the herbalist he called the Guide.

"Guide!" 

"Now you finished your pill, please drink it. I will guide the pill to you fractured bone." That old man voice sounded.

Then without hesitation, Wun Bei swallowed it whole.

"Ah!" 

His father and the Herbalist was taken aback by taking that pill.

But then Wun Bei body started to glow, especially his leg.

"This..." 

The herbalist could not believe it.

"What did you do the child?" The herbalist asked.

That glow means it was effective.

"Now move your lower half." That old man voice sounded.

Wun Bei followed that old man advice. He moved his lower half especially his leg.

"Ah!" 

It moved!

"How?" The herbalist asked curiously.

"Thank you, Herbalist. You really helped me." Wun Bei gratefully said.

"....." 

His father was taken aback also. It was a miracle!

"Herbalist! Thank you! You helped my son!" His father said and took out some silver coins from his pocket.

"Here...Take this! This is for my son recovery. I owe you, herbalist." His father said.

"This..." 

Of course, the herbalist can say no. He can't just believe that this child asked for some common medicine and that actually heal him! 

"This is unbelievable!" 

The Herbalist called.

"You really an Immortal son!"

'No, It was thanks to my Guide.' Wun Bei called in his mind. 

"Old man I need to sleep." 

"Yes..son. Please help yourself." 

"Thank you also." 

Then the man walked away including the herbalist.

'But who am I?' He asked himself.

To be continued...

Satou, D.

"The guide of your dreams and goals!"
