758 Too Exciting (1/2)
Wang Yao stopped and turned to look through the window into the room. Jia Zizai was standing there looking at them.
Wang Yao raised his hand and pushed the void through the open window. Jia Zizai took a half step back.
”Was that supernatural?” He was shocked.
The moment the doctor raised his hand, Jia Zizai felt heat flowing into his abdomen. It was hot and comfortable. The instant his body subconsciously retreated, the feeling of powerlessness returned. This time, he was sweating.
He was scared. In the beginning, the void had been within a range he could accept and understand. Now, it happened from nearly 12 feet away, which was completely beyond his imagination.
Through his many years working for the company, he had seen a lot, including savage men and kung fu masters. This was the first time he had witnessed such a thing. It made him afraid. He wondered, Isn't such a person a land god? This is too exciting!
Jia Zizai now wanted to have Wang Yao as his teacher. Who wouldn't want to learn from such an amazing master?
”OK, let's go,” Wang Yao said.
He and Zhong Liuchuan turned and left. Jia Zizai was left alone in the house shocked and powerless. He knelt on the ground, but it was not for worship. He suddenly lost the strength in his legs.
Once the two men were outside of the house Zhong Liuchuan asked, ”Master, what do you call that move?”
”What move?” Wang Yao asked.
”You just pushed your hand in the air and he stepped back,” Zhong Liuchuan said.
”Ah, that is break the empty punch in boxing,” Wang Yao replied.
In the air, he used the punch technique from the Zhou family ancient boxing scripture. The base for his control was his breathing and absolute understanding of acupoints.
”Breaking the empty punch?” Zhong Liuchuan had never heard of that before.
”You are not good enough to learn it yet,” Wang Yao said. ”This boxing method can't be practiced until you have progressed.”
The move required using neixi to mobilize and exert power. Zhong Liuchuan was just beginning to generate his Qi, which was still weak.
Zhong Liuchuan knew his current level of kung fu. He was also a contented person. Although he knew it would be good to learn and use the method, he understood that learning that deeper level of boxing would have to wait.
”Would you like to stay here for lunch?” he asked.
”No, thanks,” Wang Yao replied. ”I need to get back.”
He had made arrangements to visit Su Xiaoxue, so he needed to prepare for his trip.
”Actually, I have to go to Jing this week,” Wang Yao said. ”I would like you to take care of the village while I'm away.”
”OK, Sir, no worries,” Zhong Liuchuan said.
Wang Yao suddenly stopped and looked up at the sky. ”The weather is going to turn cold.”
…
In a hotel in Lianshan County, the air conditioning was cold. It made the room very comfortable.
A man was lying in bed. His face was a little white. The taste in his mouth made him feel sick.
He heaved a big sigh. He did not want to do anything. Plus, his body was too lazy to move.
The sun gradually set, making way for the moon to rise. The man got up and drank some medicine. He ate a little food and returned to the bed.
His brows suddenly wrinkled as he thought, Not again! He got up and went straight to the bathroom. He had been having diarrhea seven or eight times a day. Each time he went to the bathroom, dead worms with white spots would be in the toilet. He was disgusted whenever he thought about how those things had been in his stomach.
More than once, he had imagined a terrible fate for himself. If I wait any longer, these things may eat my internal organs, bite my stomach, and drill out from it. He was very afraid.
He didn't want to think about it. Sometimes, the more one didn't want to think about it, the more it would appear in one's mind.
When he thought of the man, there was panic in his eyes. These damn bugs! Those damn people!
He knew the matter had to be related to those people. His illness also made him very aware of how terrifying they could be. He thought, Forget it, the worst situation is that I stop planting herbs and give the mountain to them. I have made enough money these years. I could go back and talk to the Guo County magistrate, but what regrets would that create?
He had poured all his attention to the mountain through 20 years of hard work. That being said, he knew that being healthy was more important than anything else.
