Chapter 246 You put me under a lot of pressure
“I need a certain amount of time.” The professor looked at the photo carefully and said to Xu Qi.
“Excuse me, if it is translated, please inform me as soon as possible.”
The day after Xu Qi returned to the capital, he was called back for questioning by people from the headquarters. The person questioning him was his old boss, who now replaced Deputy Director Liu who died unexpectedly.
The deputy director saw Xu Qi coming in, and a smile appeared on his usually serious face.
“Ding Bureau.”
“Sit down and help yourself to something to drink.” As he spoke, Deputy Director Ding took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and threw it to Xu Qi.
He and Xu Qi have known each other for a long time. They have worked together for more than seven years and have taken great care of Xu Qi. Xu Qi also respects this leader.
“You have something to do with me?”
"What's the matter? Wang An went to Bei Yishan?" Director Ding didn't mince words and asked directly when he came up.
“Yes, went there.”
“What was he doing there?”
“Find a historic site.”
He had communicated these remarks with Wang An and Lu Xiangyi in advance. Even to the old leaders he trusted, there were some things he couldn't say.
“Monument, what monument?”
“I don’t know exactly what the monument is.”
“Then did he find it this time?”
"Found it. He also brought back some photos related to that ancient site. I have asked an archaeologist to decipher it."
“Found it, where is it?”
“I don’t know that.” Xu Qi shook his head.
“Where did he get this information?”
“According to my analysis, he should have obtained the information from the Qingshan Jing.”
“The Qingshan Sutra? The headquarters has been organizing people to decipher it, but so far there has been no breakthrough. Has he ever said why he wanted to find that ancient ruins?”
“No.” Xu Qi shook his head.
He knew that Wang An went to Beiyi Mountain just to take a look around, and discovering that ancient ruins was purely unexpected.
“The Immortal Burial Valley is not far away in that place. Maybe there is a connection between the two places.”
“During the meeting a few days ago, someone at the headquarters also mentioned that they wanted to invite him to the Immortal Burial Valley to see what was behind the stone gate, but this suggestion was rejected.”
"Based on my contact with him during this period, he is not the kind of person with great ambitions and can be contacted. Unfortunately, the last incident in Beijing has become a barrier between us and him." Xu Qi is now On Wang An's side.
"There are people behind this matter. As for who is still investigating, these people will be exposed sooner or later." Director Ding said, "You have more contact with Wang An. If you have any important information, please report it to the headquarters in a timely manner." Report here."
"clear."
Xu Qi lit another cigarette after coming out of the old leader's office. After walking a few steps, he saw a young man with sharp eyes like an eagle. The two passed each other and neither said a word.
The news in the capital quickly reached the ears of some people.
In a courtyard thousands of miles away.
“Ancient monuments?”
"Yes, Wang An discovered an ancient monument in Beiyi Mountain. He has given some photos of the ancient ruins to a professor for deciphering."
“Which professor?”
“Su Yuan from Imperial University.”
“Arrange people to contact you immediately, we need to know the relevant news.”
"It seems that our actions have been a bit frequent recently? Should this matter be handled through the people in the Special Affairs Bureau? Bei Yishan is not particularly far from the Immortal Burial Valley. Is there any connection between the two? ?”
In the mountain village, Wang An did not continue to worry about the ancient ruins in the mountains and what would be behind the stone door.
He is walking his own path, and it has nothing to do with him whether there are gods or devils behind the stone door.
What he has to do now is to take the current path well. The path ahead of him is very clear, and he is not walking slowly now.
His life was very peaceful. He still practiced Qigong every day and guided Li Xinzhu and Monkey to practice. He seemed to be taking it one day at a time without any long-term plans.
This is like a novel. There are no contradictions, no length or story that is exciting or enjoyable to watch. It is as plain as water and makes people uninterested.
Li Xinzhu once said that if he had one-third or even one-tenth of Wang An's ability, he would want to let the whole world know about it.
How can a man walk at night dressed in fine clothes?
Wang An just did it. He has such shocking abilities, but he can still endure this loneliness.
This afternoon, they had barbecue and chatted.
“Hey, don’t you have any dreams, just keep practicing like this?” Li Xinzhu asked while grilling meat.
"Dream, what is a dream? What I want to do now is to make my true energy as full and pure as possible, and then spread it to the outside of my body to see if I can transform my true energy into form."
“No, this is not your dream.” Li Xinzhu waved his hand.
“What about your dream?” Wang An asked with a smile.
"Originally, my original dream was to make a lot of money, endless money to spend! Eat the best food in the world, live in the best house, drive a luxury car, practice good kung fu, and marry three or four of these A beautiful daughter-in-law, giving birth to seven or eight children, that kind of life, tsk, perfect!
But recently, my dreams have changed due to being teased by you. "Li Xinzhu took a bite of the sizzling and oily barbecue.
“What has become?”
"I can't even figure out what my dream is! Well, to be honest, I'm a little worried now. I won't practice so stupidly like you in the future, but I'm still a little addicted!" Li Xinzhu sighed. , he now truly realizes that practicing martial arts can be addictive.
He walked around the big circle on the mountain all day long, and actually practiced so much that he was so sweaty that he was sweating and working hard every day. It actually made him feel better than making a lot of money. hapiness.
Li Xinzhu realized that he had changed and that he might not be able to go back to the past.
Wang An smiled after hearing this.
“Practice is actually quite good.”
"I'm pretty good. I'm in good health and in good spirits. The key thing is that I'm a little confused!" Li Xinzhu said after taking a bite of barbecue and taking a sip of wine.
“If you’re confused, you might as well set a small goal first.”
“Small goals, like?”
"Damn! You said it so lightly!" Li Xinzhu couldn't help but cursed after hearing this.
When he first heard about Zhenqi in the past, he really thought that Zhenqi was like what was described in novels and could be practiced by an individual.
Later, he heard from Wang An that it seemed that this kind of Qi was not very easy to practice. He and Lu Xiangyi were chatting together a few days ago, so he knew how difficult it was to practice this kind of Qi.
The Special Affairs Bureau tried it countless times, and how many people died and went crazy. After a lot of effort, only two people managed to master Zhenqi. One of them was killed by Wang An on Yuxiao Mountain.
If he could develop Zhenqi, wouldn't it mean that he would suddenly become a prominent figure in the empire, just like the kind of top masters in the world written in novels? It's really awesome and tempting when you think about it, but the difficulty is not that great.
"Is there anything you can do?" Li Xinzhu looked at Wang An, who was eating barbecue.
“Still thinking, the key is to rely on yourself.”
“Alas, it’s this sentence again.” Li Xinzhu sighed.
"It's better to rely on yourself than to rely on others. Either you give up now and make your business bigger and stronger. I think with Lu Xiangyi's help, there will definitely be no problem."
“No, I have to grasp it with both hands and be strong with both hands. Other people are doing the making money, but I can only rely on myself to do the kung fu.”
Wang An smiled when he heard this. The monkey on the side listened quietly to the conversation between the two people. When he saw Wang An smiling, he also smiled.
"Do you understand what we talked about?" Li Xinzhu asked after seeing the monkey laughing, and the monkey nodded.
“Then, what is your dream?”
After hearing this, the monkey put down the skewers in his hand, jumped to the side, picked up a stick on the side, stood on the ground, held the stick in one hand, looked up at the sky, and made a very domineering gesture.
“This is it?” Li Xinzhu stared at the monkey's pose and looked at it carefully.
“Good guy, this is the Monkey King, you are going to heaven!”
The monkey nodded.
“Hiss, hey, your dream puts me under a lot of pressure!” Li Xinzhu sighed.
“Here, let’s have a drink.” Li Xinzhu raised the glass and was motioned to the monkey. The monkey immediately picked up the glass, clinked it with him, and then drank it down.
“Good drinker!” Li Xinzhu raised his thumb at the monkey.
“Hey, how can I be compared to a monkey?” Li Xinzhu took a deep breath.
“You asked Xiaohou to teach me the Great Vajra Palm, right?”
“What do you want to learn?” Wang An asked.
“What you do best.”
“What am I best at?” Wang An was silent for a moment after hearing this. "Tai Chi, but it's not for you."
“I have said that the most suitable boxing method for you to practice is Bengquan. No matter who the opponent is, just use Bengquan, straight and straight. The best boxing is the one that suits your personality and suits you.” Wang Andao said.
“How should we practice?” Li Xinzhu asked hurriedly.
“This is easier said than done. You are practicing footwork now. Practicing Beng Quan again will consume your mind.”
“I eat ginseng every day, I can do it.”
Wang An raised his hand to the side and grabbed the air. A stick twenty centimeters away from his palm shook twice, then bounced up from the ground and fell into his hand.
“Have you mastered holding grass and controlling objects in the air?!” Li Xinzhu, who was sharp-eyed, said in surprise when he saw this.
“It’s not about controlling objects through the air, it’s about the skillful use of Qi. Can you break this stick?” Wang An pointed to the stick in his hand.
“Of course.” Li Xinzhu said.
“What about the stake as thick as that tree?” Wang An pointed to a nearby tree as thick as the mouth of a bowl.
“That’s definitely not possible.” Li Xinzhu said.
“That’s your short-term goal. When you can punch a tree as thick as a Bengquan, you’ve basically mastered this skill.” Wang Andao said.
“This, how to practice this?”
“Practice hard.” Wang An replied simply in one word.
Not long after, Wang An erected ten wooden stakes on the mountain, and then tied rags to the wooden stakes as a buffer when hitting.
“Try to break ten wooden stakes in one month.” Wang An pointed at the ten wooden stakes.
“Ten wooden stakes in one month?” Li Xinzhu looked at the ten wooden stakes with straight eyes.
“What’s the problem? It’s too little.”
“No problem, no more, no less, just right!” Li Xinzhu stared at the ten wooden stakes. "It's just ten sticks, done!"
“Remember, you can only use Beng Fist.” Wang An warned again.
“No problem, just ten wooden stakes.”
He punched it one after another. The wooden stake was inserted into the ground nearly one meter deep and was very strong.
“The process of practicing boxing is actually about the strength of the whole body and the instantaneous exertion of force. You should experience it yourself.”
While Li Xinzhu was practicing boxing, Wang An was also practicing. This time, the palm that shattered the rocks at the foot of the mountain made him realize something.
His palms were connected in the mountains, one move was like King Kong's slap on the table, and the next move turned into Tai Chi. His strength was transformed in an instant, smoothly and smoothly, and the direction of the flow of Qi also changed rapidly.
Moves, strength, and vitality are all combined into one.

Thousands of miles away in the land of Xiqiang, intense construction is going on outside the Immortal Burial Valley. A base will be built here with the Immortal Burial Valley as the center.
While the base is under construction, the Special Affairs Bureau has not given up exploring the inside. However, so far, their exploration can only go outside the palace, and they cannot stay for a long time. Even if the equipment has been improved, as long as they enter the palace No one among them can come out alive, and so far, the only exception is Guo Tianbu.
They thought of a way to let people go in with a rope tied around their waist, and at the same time let another group of people wait outside, pull the other end of the rope, and come out immediately after entering the palace. If they can't get out, they can go through the outside. The people pulled the rope and pulled the people who entered directly out.
In the end, all they pulled out were dead people, with bleeding from their orifices and cracked flesh all over their bodies. They looked terrible. After their bodies were taken out, they were immediately sent to relevant bases for autopsy and examination.
The more this happened, the more curious they became about what was inside.
At this time, Guo Tianbu was not very far away from here. His range of actions had always been controlled in a barren mountain, and a special team had been watching him.
Just like Mutsu said before, he has been awake for longer and longer now, and even some vague memories that he forgot in the past have begun to emerge in his mind, such as what is in the palace behind the stone gate.
“Behind the stone door should be a long and narrow passage, with weird runes carved on the surrounding walls, twists and turns, and dry bones on the ground.” Guo Tianbu tried hard to recall the scene inside the palace.
But in his mind, the scene in the palace was also a blur.
“Everyone who went in died inside without exception. Their flesh and blood, organs, bones, and brains were all damaged to varying degrees.”
