Chapter 55: The Man Who Was Sliced
Xiao Wu and Zheng Wan returned to Xiao's house and sat in Zheng Wan's courtyard, the two of them looked at each other, and they didn't know what to say for a while. Xiao Wu was interested, but Zheng Wan was a little dazed.
After being silent for a long time, Zheng Wan spoke first, "Brother, don't worry, after so many days, this poison should be almost solved." ”
Xiao Wu sighed, "You don't have to comfort me, listen to that person, I'm afraid your exercises are not simple." ”
Zheng Wan smiled, smiled indifferently, and smiled as if she had put down a lot.
"But I don't think there's anything, why should someone else give you such a great opportunity for no reason? Why should they accept you as an apprentice?"
Zheng Wan looked at Xiao Wu and smiled even sweeter, "Shizun is Shizun, she allows me to jump out of the palace wall, walk freely on the street, and have my own clothes, I once fantasized that even if it is just one day of freedom, I am willing to exchange my life for it." ”
Xiao Wu took a deep breath, "Don't think about that, you can rest." I want to go back to the palace, and tomorrow I will play the right thing in the palace. ”
Xiao Wu got up and walked slowly to the door.
"Brother!" Zheng Wan shouted.
"What's the matter?" Xiao Wu asked, turning around.
"No matter what my brother does next, I hope to have my sister with me. Zheng Wan stood up and said resolutely.
As soon as Xiao Wu groaned, he understood that Zheng Wan had nowhere to go, and it was obviously more hopeful to follow him when he found Gongsun Nan.
Xiao Wu nodded, "Okay." He added, "I have one thing to ask for, and I will have breakfast with my mother tomorrow." ”
Zheng Wan smiled, "The branch should be." ”
Xiao Wu disappeared into the night, he was full of worries, and he didn't want to say hello to his parents, let's talk about it tomorrow when the war is settled.
At this time, Zheng Wan was lying on the bed for a long time and couldn't calm down. She took a deep breath, then muttered, "I'm out, I'm out of that palace wall!" as she spoke, tears silently flowing down her cheeks, without a sound, just silently weeping.
Zheng Wan didn't sleep all night, it was the pleasure of suddenly being free, and there was also the dazed feeling that she suddenly didn't have to listen to anyone's orders.
Xiao Wu didn't sleep all night, he sat down cross-legged, in his own room in the palace, he didn't cultivate, and his consciousness manifested the sea of knowledge.
He saw the old man sitting by the small lake of Zhihai, his brow furrowed. Seeing Xiao Wu appear, the old man said loudly, "Sit down and talk, it's a little difficult this time." ”
Xiao Wu sat down beside the old man and said worriedly, "I just looked inward, and I don't have a clue. He raised his eyes and looked into the distance, "Old man, do you know the poison of this black stone?"
The old man shook his head, "I don't know. He said solemnly, "The heavens and all the worlds, the civilizations are mixed, and this god has been hiding from the world for 10,000 years, some poisons are newly refined, and some poisons are changed names." It's fine if I see it, but I can't feel it. ”
Xiao Wu lay directly on the ground, like a salted fish, "Do you think I'm going to die? If I die, you have to find a home." ”
The old man looked at him sideways, "Looking at you like this, you don't seem to be afraid of death." ”
Xiao Wu smiled, "I'm afraid, who is not afraid." But since I came into this world, I don't belong here, I live someone else's life, and death feels like someone else is going to die, as if it has nothing to do with me. ”
The old man shook his head and said, "You won't die, at least not in the short term." The woman in the wall is here for you to see Gongsun Nan! According to her, this Gongsun Nan is probably not so easy to see. ”
Xiao Wu nodded, "Then how long do you think I can live?"
The old man thought for a moment, "It's hard to say, we should check your poison again." ”
Xiao Wu waved his hand, "I can't see it, how can I check?"
The old man shook his hand and shot out a ball of light, "I once had a technique called Cun Xin. With True Qi as a blade, cut your whole body with the blade of True Qi. Subtle perception, scanning every inch of his body and meridians, but this process is like ten thousand arrows piercing the heart, and one inch is like ten thousand arrows piercing the heart, so it is called the inch heart. ”
Xiao Wu was terrified when he heard it, this function sounded like CT, but the feeling of cutting himself piece by piece, how could this be so terrifying?
"No, you can't. The old man said dryly.
"Then why should I torture myself?" Xiao Wu said depressedly.
"At least you can find your poison, at least you can know the specific poison. ”
Xiao Wu nodded, "I want to think about it." ”
The old man pressed the light ball into Xiao Wu's eyebrows. "You have to believe in the power of knowledge. ”
I don't see you play a role in anything, what power do you have with this knowledge?
The old man looked at Xiao Wu with a look of disbelief, and said, "Hey, this god can't see this poison, if you let me see it, I must have a way to solve it for you." ”
Xiao Wu nodded, "Okay, I remember what you said." If it can really detoxify, I thank you. ”
The old man waved his hand, "Let's say thank you or not, you can promise me one thing when the time comes." ”
Xiao Wu was puzzled, "Aren't you a ghost?
The old man frowned, "This Divine Venerable is a Divine Soul! Does a Divine Soul understand? Besides, can't a Divine Soul have any requirements?"
"Hey, hey, what are you anxious about? Xiao Wu's figure dissipated and withdrew from the sea of knowledge.
At this time, Xiao Wu seemed to have relaxed a lot, as if the old man said that there was a way, and there was really a way.
He flipped through the mantra of the Inch Heart Technique in his head. Most of them are retrograde meridians and the method of perceiving with the body.
To put it simply, it is to let one's true qi fill a small part of the body area, and then use a special technique to stimulate the body's perception to increase a hundredfold, and it is extremely painful for the true qi to rush into the body, and the perception is a hundred times clearer, which must be a masochistic practice.
Xiao Wu took a deep breath and thought about the poison on his body again, "One in ten thousand chance, I don't want to die!" He closed his eyes and meditated, and began to deduce the operation of this spell.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Wu shouted in his head, "Old man, let's try." ”
"Hmm. The old man's voice was a little solemn, "You try to activate the heart first, let's come little by little." ”
Xiao Wu thought about it carefully, and chose his left thumb as the starting endpoint, compared to the head and hands, or the toe is more secondary.
The Inch Heart Spell was activated, and the True Qi wrapped around the thumb of the left foot. Xiao Wu felt that his thumb seemed to be swollen, and then the seal moved, and the perception of his thumb increased a hundredfold.
"Hmm~!" Xiao Wu collapsed directly on the bed. It felt like thousands of needles had pierced into the nails of the thumb, and it felt like a small blade, slicing your toes into layers according to the cell level. The most important thing is that the process of slicing is not only free of anesthetic, but also the effect of amplifying the sensitivity to a hundredfold.
In an instant, Xiao Wu was in a cold sweat, this pain was simply unbearable.
"How's it going?" Xiao Wu asked.
"It's fine. The old man nodded, "It's just that you can't endure the pain." When are you going to be able to finish your whole body like this?"
"Come, let's continue!" Xiao Wu gritted his teeth, it had already begun, and the pain was expected.
