Gu Lingqing curled his lips slightly and made a "please" gesture to the old man, indicating that he should drink the other bottle of medicine on the table.
Under Gu Lingqing's gaze, the old man picked up the white jade bottle and poured the medicine directly into his mouth.
Without any hesitation!
Logically speaking, a meeting with such a national leader would require more than a dozen levels of security checks, not to mention food and drink. One must be extremely cautious, because if something happens to such an important person, it will inevitably have a huge impact and world public opinion.
However, not only did the old man not conduct a security check on Gu Lingqing, he also swallowed the liquid medicine in one gulp, showing considerable trust in him! It also meant a gesture of goodwill!
Generally, people who are extremely suspicious would not dare to gamble like this.
When Gu Lingqing saw him drink it, he casually introduced all the remaining spiritual energy in the surrounding space into his body.
This time the time spent combing the muscles and bones was shorter, and superficially, the effect was much worse.
At least in terms of appearance, the old man has not changed much and is still as old as before.
Upon seeing this, the country's chief scientist Si Zhenguang sighed softly, his mood becoming more complicated.
The old man was a little surprised. He felt much more energetic and his body was much lighter than before!
This is definitely not as simple as she said that the effect is a little worse.
As he thought about it, he inadvertently noticed the meaningful smile on Gu Lingqing's face and the regret, sadness, emotion, and determination on Si Zhenguang's face. As if guessing something, he nodded towards Gu Lingqing without any expression, and he appreciated the kindness.
Gu Lingqing just smiled and said nothing.
When their eyes met, the two of them reached a certain degree of tacit understanding.
"By the way, I heard that you suffered a lightning disaster two days ago for revealing the secret of heaven in order to save the people in Gaoliu District. I wonder if you are in serious condition?" The old man asked Gu Lingqing with concern.
"Not bad." Gu Lingqing nodded.
"The world of cultivation is truly wondrous. Heavenly secrets, thunder tribulations... could the end of science really be theology?!" Si Zhenguang's face was filled with emotion as he fell into deep thought. "I really don't know what principle is causing this."
The old man was silent for a moment, then asked, "Could the karma be borne by someone else?"
"cannot."
"Oh." The old man sighed, and Si Zhenguang shook his head when he heard this.
Since the consequences of one's actions cannot be borne by others, it would be inappropriate for them to ask Gu Lingqing to warn of major disasters such as earthquakes and floods in the future.
Gu Lingqing didn't speak, but picked up another cake and started eating.
Finally, Si Zhenguang lost his patience and asked tentatively, "If, if there were a major disaster, like an earthquake, would Miss Gu be in danger of her life if she warned me?"
"Of course." Gu Lingqing looked at him and said, "The more people who were supposed to die, the greater the karma, and the heavier the thunder tribulation."
Seeing the two elders looking worried and hesitant, Gu Lingqing changed the subject and said with a smile, "But don't worry. As a member of the Chinese nation, I will warn you when necessary, but you will need to provide a place for me to overcome the tribulation."
The secret has to be revealed, otherwise how can she continue to fleece the sheep?
"That's no problem! But if you are not absolutely sure of survival, then don't talk about it. Saving your life is the first priority." The old man reminded kindly.
"Haha, I would have thought so even if you hadn't told me." Gu Lingqing said with a smile, without even a word of courtesy.
When the director and Si Zhenguang heard her words, they both shook their heads and laughed.
This result is already very good!
It has exceeded their original psychological expectations.
A true immortal cultivator is worth tens of millions of people!
The loss of such a special talent would be the greatest loss to the country!
Without staying any longer, Gu Lingqing soon boarded the military plane again and flew to Hengdian, escorted by sixteen fighter jets.
Both sides were very satisfied with this meeting.
On the government's side, first, it can provide early warning and make preparations before a disaster occurs, which can protect people's personal safety to the greatest extent and reduce more financial losses.
Second, important national figures such as chief scientist Si Zhenguang can have longer lifespans and cultivate more talents for the country.
Thirdly, with such immortal cultivators existing in China, why should we fear other countries?!
Gu Lingqing also did not lose out.
With a smart person like the Director around, she will not only have fewer worries, but it will also be more convenient for her to do anything!
Not only that, to a certain extent, she can actually mobilize a lot of the country's military forces for her own use.
There will be someone to provide a place for you to overcome the tribulation, and someone will also clean up the mess left behind.
All she needs to pay is a portion of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
The vast universe is boundless and vast, and is filled with spiritual factors everywhere.
The galaxy here is simply in a barren area, so the spiritual energy is thin, but once it is absorbed completely, it will still be slowly replenished.
In the compound, not long after Gu Lingqing left, a special medical team in white coats walked in.
When they saw Si Zhenguang, who looked about ten years younger, and the director, who hadn't changed at all and was still old, everyone's eyes widened in surprise.
Then, they thought of something, and looked at the old man with more respect and emotion.
The Director actually gave the chance to extend his life to Academician Si!
I wonder which country’s top leaders can have such magnanimity?
With such a leader, China will surely be revived!
"Let's start." The old man smiled gently without explaining anything.
Although he did not look any younger, he knew that his lifespan had been extended.
At this moment, he was in particularly good spirits, and he no longer suffered from back pain, stiffness, or aging.
The special medical team began to draw blood from Si Zhenguang and test various physical indicators with very complicated feelings.
After a wait that felt like an eternity, the test report finally came out.
Looking at the data one by one, the members of the special medical team were all shocked and their hearts were pounding.
"Incredible! Academician Si's vital signs are excellent, and most importantly, his telomeres have lengthened!"
"This is amazing! Theoretically, Academician Si's lifespan has been extended by ten to fifteen years!"
"Every time a cell divides, the telomeres at both ends of the chromosomes shorten accordingly. When the telomeres become too short, they lose their vitality, lose their ability to proliferate indefinitely, and die."
"But now, the telomeres have actually grown in reverse! It's perfect, without any side effects! There's no other drug in the world that can have this effect. It's simply a miracle!"
Si Zhenguang, who looked a little younger, saluted the director, his eyes burning with even stronger faith and desire.
The old man reached out and patted Si Zhenguang's arm, smiling without saying anything.
Everything is implied.
