Chapter 45 Five-Step Soul Chasing
Xu Chunliang shook his head. He never thought about becoming a doctor who heals diseases and saves lives. The reason why he agreed to study medicine with his grandfather was mainly to better cover up his past.
"Didn't your grandfather intend to let you inherit Huichun Hall?"
"The old man has thought about it, but I don't have much interest in becoming a doctor."
Gu Houyi misinterpreted Xu Chunliang's meaning: "It doesn't matter if you like administrative work, all roads lead to Rome."
Xu Chunliang did not deny that he is currently adapting to and exploring this era, and he has not yet figured out where he will go next? He is still satisfied with his current life and work, and he needs to go dormant in the short term.
In the past, he was obsessed with poisonous scriptures and martial arts, because it was an era when there were many masters from sects. Now the world seems to be singing and dancing on the surface, just like the legendary prosperous age, but for some reason, deep in his heart There is still a sense of crisis, and it seems that some invisible enemies are still watching him secretly, and this possibility should not exist.
Although Xu Chunliang said that he could drink alcohol, Gu Houyi didn't dare to drink too much. After all, the sudden illness today left him with lingering fears.
Xu Chunliang came to the door for the first time, and the wine is not suitable for drinking freely at present.
After all, there was a difference in status between him and Gu Houyi, and both of them had reservations. After staying at Gu Houyi's house for more than an hour, Xu Chunliang said goodbye and left.
Before leaving, Gu Houyi took the initiative to add his contact information. According to the usual practice, it is the subordinates and juniors who take the initiative to add his contact information, but Xu Chunliang did not make such a request. Instead, Gu Houyi became the active party. He feels special.
As soon as Xu Chunliang returned home, he received a video call from his grandfather. The old man was worried that he was alone, so he called to see if he was at home.
Xu Chunliang told his grandfather that he was honestly reading at home at home, and asked about the old man's situation there, Xu Changshan told him that everything was going well, and he would go home the day after tomorrow.
Hung up the phone, found out the rubbings of the oracle bone inscriptions before my grandfather, and studied them under the lamp for a while, and almost concluded that these oracle bone inscriptions should be the chapter "Tianyang" in the "Huangdi Neijing".
According to grandpa, these oracle bone inscriptions should be in the Dongzhou Museum now, and it happens to be closed tomorrow, so you can go and have a look.
As for the ancient text expert Bai Mushan, it is estimated that he failed to decipher the above text. If he deciphers and discovers the secret, this academic achievement will definitely cause a sensation in the world.
The Internet is a good thing. It is easy to find the main academic achievements of Bai Mushan in these years, and there is no mention of any news about the "Huangdi Neijing".
Before going to bed every day, Xu Chunliang would meditate routinely and rework the "Tiantian Treasure". Although he practiced hard for more than a month, the progress was minimal. The environment and climate are changing even more, and the air is far less pure than in the past. This is also a big negative factor for cultivation.
Everything needs to be started from the beginning. Although "Tiantian Treasure" is a supreme secret book, it does not help much in terms of the foundation of body training. Xu Chunliang, who has recognized the reality, has begun to have a mentality of letting nature take its course, but the daily practice of building foundations , never fell.
The lights in the room were all turned off. Xu Chunliang sat cross-legged on the big bed, breathing quietly, perceiving the world around him, and gradually adapting to everything around him. The first step in practice is to integrate your body and mind with the world. One.
When entering ecstasy, I suddenly smelled a fishy smell, and immediately judged from the smell that a five-paced snake was nearby.
Perception spread in the void following the fishy smell, forming an invisible lead, which helped him quickly lock on the target. A five-step snake quietly walked along the corner of the wall, came to the bed, climbed up along the legs of the bed, whispered Wuxi came to the bed.
The five-step snake, which is getting closer, has entered an attacking state.
Although Xu Chunliang closed his eyes, he could clearly perceive its position. I feel a little strange in my heart, how could such a highly poisonous thing sneak into the Hall of Rejuvenation?
Dongzhou is located in Jiangbei, and there are not many snakes and insects. It is no accident that such a highly poisonous thing sneaked into the Huichun Hall. Before Xu Chunliang moved here, he specially observed the surrounding environment, and there were no poisonous snakes living nearby.
Xu Chunliang opened his eyes, and in the darkness, he saw the black and yellow rope standing up from the bed, spitting out bright red letters from his mouth, like a flame leaping.
The five-step snake has locked on to the target, but has yet to make another attack. It felt an invisible coercion, and this powerful aura came from Xu Chunliang who was close at hand, and instantly gave up the plan to attack, and just wanted to surrender at the opponent's feet.
Xu Chunliang looked at the five-paced snake. This snake is also known as Viper and Agkistromus acutina. It is one of the most common poisonous snakes in China.
The five-step snake in front of him is three feet long, and Xu Chunliang has seen bigger ones, up to seven feet long, with a triangular head and a pair of oval cheek sockets between the nostrils and eyes. Sensing heat, equivalent to a pair of thermal detectors.
Xu Chunliang stretched out his right hand, the triangular head of the five-step snake moved back a bit, then lowered down, approaching Xu Chunliang's right hand, the bright red letter gently licked his fingertips, at first glance, it looked like Xu Chunliang's fingertips A flame danced at the tip.
Suddenly, Xu Chunliang's body fell limply, and then twitched non-stop.
A black figure came in from the open window, the moonlight cast on this person's face, and it could be seen that he was wearing black stockings on his head. This person was extremely agile, and jumped down from the window sill like an autumn leaf falling to the ground.
Looking at Xu Chunliang who was twitching on the bed, the man in black shook his head triumphantly, and tapped the thin bamboo stick on the ground twice.
The five-step snake swam away from Xu Chunliang, slid down to the ground without a sound, came to the man in black, and climbed up his arm along the bamboo pole.
The man in black is obviously a master snake master. He glanced at Xu Chunliang who was still struggling on the bed, but he didn't intend to rescue him. He looked around the room and made sure that there was no surveillance in the room before he planned to leave.
Just as he turned around, the five-step snake lying obediently on his shoulders attacked him, biting his face.
The man in black was in severe pain, and angrily said: "Xiao Hua, let go..." He had already forgotten to stop his voice in panic.
Xiaohua is the nickname he gave to his pet snake. Xiaohua is not willing to let go and bites his right cheek tightly. The thin silk stockings can't stop Xiaohua's fangs at all. Two long tube teeth pierced into his face Flesh, injecting venom into it.
The toxin of Agkistrodon Agkistros is a hemolytic toxin composed of protein, and this toxin is strongly hemorrhagic.
Victims usually experience immediate pain and bleeding from the wound, followed by swelling, blistering, gangrene, and ulceration.
Just as he took out the medicine bottle for injection, a figure suddenly rushed up and kicked his hand holding the medicine bottle. The medicine bottle flew out of his hand immediately, landed on the floor and rolled far away.
The man in black was scared out of his wits. Looking up, Xu Chunliang, who was struggling on the bed just now, was already standing in front of him.
The man in black didn't care about dealing with Xu Chunliang, and crawled forward with hands and feet. He had to get back the serum in time, and his life was tied to that medicine bottle.
The body of the five-step snake was wrapped around the neck of the man in black. At this moment, it had completely lost control, and the only thought was to get rid of its master.
Xu Chunliang picked up the bamboo stick used by the man in black to control snakes from the ground, and pointed it at the ninth thoracic vertebra on the back of the man in black.
This is Jinshuo acupoint, which belongs to the Governor Vessel. The name of Jinshuo means that the water and damp air in the Du Vessel dissipate heat and condense here. Using heavy techniques to touch this acupoint can make the muscles and fascias of the whole body stiff, as if immobilizing the body. Law.
The man in black was first poisoned by the snake's venom, and then he hit his acupuncture points, and his whole body froze in place as if petrified.
The light was bright, Xu Chunliang walked past him with his slippers on, picked up the bottle of snake venom serum from the ground, held it in his hand and looked at it, then his eyes fell on the man's face, because his head was covered with a layer of black stockings, So I couldn't see his face clearly at this time.
The five-step snake wrapped its body around the man in black's neck several times, and it became tighter and tighter. If it continued like this, the man in black would be strangled to death by it before he died from the poison.
Xu Chunliang tapped the ground lightly with the bamboo stick, and the five-step snake gave up continuing to attack its old master and climbed onto the bamboo stick.
The man in black couldn't believe his eyes. He has raised this five-step snake since it was hatched. He spent a lot of effort to domesticate the snake. Unexpectedly, Xu Chunliang managed to control it effortlessly.
Now he fully understands that the poisoning of Xu Chunliang just now was just a disguise, the purpose is to make him believe it is true.
Xu Chunliang reached out and took off the stockings on the face of the man in black. At this moment, the man in black's right cheek was swollen and blistered, and blood gurgled out from the two blood holes bitten by the five-step snake, which was horrible.
The man in black looked at the tube of snake venom serum in Xu Chunliang's hand, and said in a trembling voice, "Quick...quick...give me...give me..."
Xu Chunliang smiled and said: "Before you killed me, did you ever think that you would end up like this." He didn't know the man in black in front of him, why would this man kill him? Judging from the means just now, this person deserves to die.
"Boy, sensible, give me the serum right away... If something happens to me, none of you in Huichun Hall will be spared..."
Xu Chunliang sighed and said, "You dare to threaten me when you are about to die." He raised the glass bottle in his hand as if to drop it to the ground.
The man in black wailed in fright: "Don't...I...I was wrong...I have eyes that don't know Taishan...You forgive me, forgive me this time, I swear, I will never fight against you again."
Xu Chunliang reached out and touched the snake's head on the bamboo stick. The five-step snake was as docile as a lamb in front of him. The bright red Xinzi licked Xu Chunliang's fingers as a response to him. The snake is an expert, and the opponent's means are many times stronger than his own.
"What's your name? Why do you want to poison me?"
The man in black was bitten by the five-step snake, and he was getting closer to the onset of toxicity. He didn't dare to waste any more time, and answered honestly, "My name is Han Tianchi."
Xu Chunliang suddenly remembered that when he designed to expose Fan Yajun of the Forestry Bureau, he took the initiative to confess that the mastermind of the mobile phone theft was called Han Tianchi, and it seemed that this was the reason why Han Tianchi came to take revenge on him.
Han Tianchi begged: "Mr. Xu, spare your life, everything is my fault, give me the serum quickly, before it's too late..." He felt cold all over his body, and his face was numb and itchy.
After being bitten by a five-step snake, although it is not as exaggerated as the five-step snake, if you do not get timely treatment in a short period of time, the risk of death is very high.
Xu Chunliang has judged from the reaction of Han Tianchi's wound that the poison of this snake is not too severe, and Han Tianchi should be fine within an hour.
Now is not the era of killing people at every turn. Xu Chunliang decided to follow the Romans and hand over the goods to the police. He called Lu Qi and told him that he had captured Han Tianchi.
Han Tianchi knew that Xu Chunliang called the police, but there was nothing he could do. Given his current situation, even being caught by the police would be better than dying of poisoning.
While waiting for the police to arrive, Xu Chunliang went to get a disposable syringe and injected Han Tianchi with antivenom. Although his life and death did not matter to him, it would not be auspicious to die in Huichuntang.
When the police came to Huichuntang, Han Tianchi’s condition had stabilized. Lu Qi handcuffed Han Tianchi and briefly asked about the situation. Xu Chunliang only said that he thought a thief had entered the house. The main criminal Han Tianchi.
Han Tianchi's face was half swollen, his head drooped and he kept silent. He had spent half his life in society, but today he fell into the hands of a young man and almost lost his life.
Xu Chunliang didn't mention the fact that he used the five-step snake to murder himself, and Han Tianchi certainly wouldn't say it. If he said this, it would be an attempted murder, and the crime would be aggravated. He didn't know about his pet. Where did the snake go? After three years of hard work, it ended up leaving with someone else, and the feeling of being betrayed by the snake was also uncomfortable.
After the police left, Xu Chunliang found the bamboo stick that Han Tianchi used to drive snakes. This bamboo stick was quite old, and after careful study, the word poor was engraved in small seal characters on the stick head.
Xu Chunliang looked at the poor character and couldn't help frowning. Could it be that Han Tianchi came from a poor family?
The Poor Sect is the Beggars' Gang known as the number one gang in the world. Even when the Five Poison Sect was at its peak, he would not take the initiative to provoke the Beggars' Gang. The gang of beggars will cause endless troubles.
Beggars are rarely seen in today's era. Xu Chunliang thought that the poor family would also disappear with the changes of the times, but he didn't expect to find traces of the poor family's disciples here.
This bamboo stick is a typical dog-beating stick from poor families. Poor disciples hold bamboo sticks, one can beat dogs, and the other can control snakes. In the past era, almost every beggar had one hand, but in today's era, it is rare, and the symbolic meaning is greater than the actual meaning.
Reminiscent of what Han Tianchi said threatening him, if there is a huge poor family behind this guy, then he does have some confidence. It seems that this peaceful and prosperous age is not without the world, and he needs to be more vigilant in the future.
Xu Chunliang slept very late. When he woke up the next morning, he found that the snake was still curled up under the bed. After the accident last night, the five-step snake has regarded Xu Chunliang as its new master and silently guarded him. .
Xu Chunliang originally planned to let it go, but it refused to leave. After thinking about it, I found a temporary shelter for it in the backyard. Fortunately, my grandfather was not at home. If I let him see this five-step snake, I don’t know how to explain it. Everything has spirituality. This five-step snake It has its own method of concealment, which will not bring any trouble to Xu Chunliang.
