Chapter 75 You've Already Promised
The opening of the meridians is the first development of the human body by a warrior. A warrior can rely on the meridians to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, cleanse his body, and at the same time, allow his martial arts to exert some special effects.
Normally, there are five meridians, namely the Baihui point on the top of the head, the Laogong point on the palm, and the Yongquan point on the sole of the foot.
When a warrior opens up five meridians, these special meridians that originally did not exist can be connected into a whole in the human body. According to Ji Ruo's understanding, the anatomical diagram of the meridians is roughly equivalent to a stick figure.
By then, the power of Qi and blood will be able to penetrate the entire body and permeate the entire body!
A few geniuses can open up six or even seven meridians, connecting the lower dantian or even the upper dantian.
Generally speaking, a meridian is just a meridian, going straight back and forth, and finally converging at the Danzhong point.
Ji Ruo's situation is a bit complicated.
He is now a one-veined warrior. Unlike normal one-veined warriors who only have one energy meridian, Ji Ruo is blessed with the natural talent of "more is better, bigger is stronger".
His meridians were several times thicker than those of an average person, and they were also forked...
In addition to the main meridian from the Baihui point on the top of the head to the Tanzhong point on the chest, there are also numerous branches that branch out from the main meridian and are distributed radially.
It is like the countless branches of a big river, or the huge root system of a big tree.
Ji Ruo even suspected that, in addition to the blessing of his inherent talent, the reason why his meridians split was because he rubbed them too hard when he took a shower just now... Otherwise, even if they were going to split, it wouldn't have happened so quickly!
…
"Why is there a split here..."
Ji Ruo scratched his head and made a brief comparison. It seemed that he was now much stronger than the Qi Mai realm warrior described in the textbooks.
Normally, a warrior at the Qi and Meridian level must reach the Five Meridians level before he can unleash his strength throughout his body. Ji Ruo can do it now. Once he reaches the Five Meridians level, he will probably be able to unleash all his meridians...
"Meow~ (Master, what's wrong? What's the fork?)"
"It's okay, it's not a bad thing." Ji Ruo didn't explain much, picked up Luo Xi, and said, "Let's go and see the squad leader. He should have surgery today."
"Meow~ (Okay, okay!)"
One person and one cat went out.
Ji Ruo's white hair attracted many passers-by to look at him sideways - it was premature graying.
…
If Liang Shixian needs to undergo surgery, the First Municipal Hospital is definitely the most likely place.
After all, Liang Shixian's iron shirt has already reached the top, and he has eaten so many good things, so he is not far from mastering it, and his defense is not weak.
He himself has reached the Qi and Pulse Realm, and ordinary doctors are really incapable of performing surgery on him - the Qi and Pulse Realm has a protective Qi.
Using an electric saw or something like that could break through Liang Shixian's defense, but what kind of doctor uses an electric saw during surgery? Dr. Gu?
Of course, Ji Ruo also called to confirm.
The person who answered the phone was Liang Shixian's father, and it was true that he was having surgery at the First Hospital in the city.
…
"Meow~ (Are we there yet, Master?)"
"Yeah, here we are."
Ji Ruo put Luo Xi down from his head and said, "Luo Xi, pets are not allowed in the hospital. Please wait for me here."
He dropped Rosie off at the hospital door.
As a cat, Rosie cannot go to the hospital.
“Meow~ (OK)”
Rosie squatted obediently on the side of the road, looking like a normal cat.
But only Ji Ruo knew that the moment this kid was put down, his talents increased to nine.
They are toughness, malicious perception, illusion, strength, agility, lightness, catapult start, limb strengthening, and silencer...
Among them, 'silencing' is for itself, and can significantly reduce the sound it produces.
'Swiftness', 'Lightness', 'Bounce Start', and 'Strong Limbs' are used for escaping.
'Toughness' is used to resist being beaten, 'Strength' is used to strengthen vitality, 'Malicious Perception' is used to identify whether people around you have malicious intentions towards you, and 'Illusion' is used to reduce your presence...
Ji Ruo took her to several hospitals today. Rosie was like this every time. Her talent for saving lives was maxed out, and she was extremely cautious.
But think about it, this little guy is a demon after all. When he comes to the human world, he naturally has to be more careful when he is alone.
Just as he was about to get on the elevator, a boy rushed out from the stairwell nearby with his head down, but Ji Ruo didn't pay any attention.
Ji Ruo got on the elevator.
Three minutes later, Ji Ruo arrived outside the ward where Liang Shixian was.
Liang's mother sat by the bed and peeled apples. The fruit knife in her hand flew up and down as nimbly as a butterfly flying through flowers. The peeled apples were as thin as cicada wings, which clearly showed her exquisite fruit knife skills.
Ji Ruo vaguely remembered that Liang Shixian's mother was once a military doctor.
With a slight movement of his wrist, the [Dual Mastery of Sword and Blade] buff took effect, and Ji Ruo learned this surgical knife technique in the blink of an eye.
"Squad leader, is the operation finished?"
Ji Ruo pushed the door open and walked in, saying politely, "Hello, uncle and aunt."
When Liang Shixian heard Ji Ruo's voice, he looked up in surprise: "Ji Ruo, you come..."
Before he could finish his words, the family of three was stunned on the spot.
"Ji Ruo...your hair..." Liang Shixian was a little hesitant, because it was not long since he had the operation, and his face was a little pale, but not paler than Ji Ruo's hair.
"Hello, classmate Ji Ruo..." Liang's father obviously didn't expect that Ji Ruo, whom he had just met yesterday, would appear in front of the camera with white hair today. His smile was a bit forced: "Uncle was just about to call and ask you where you were."
Liang's mother smiled awkwardly: "Young people, it's good to have some personality..."
They thought Ji Ru had dyed her hair halfway through.
Ji Ruo shook his head.
Liang Shixian leaned on the hospital bed and said, "Dad, Mom, can you let Ji Ruo and I talk alone?"
The couple was stunned for a moment, then Liang's father said with a smile: "As it should be, you young people have more common language, and it would be awkward for you two old guys to be here... Well, Shixian, you go have a good chat with classmate Ji Ruo, and I'll go out for a walk with your mother."
With that, the couple left the ward, leaving the space to Ji Ruo and Liang Shixian.
Ji Ruo sat down beside the bed and asked, "Squad leader, how do you feel?"
"That's fine. By the way, isn't Rosie here with you?"
"She came, but pets are not allowed in the hospital. I asked her to wait at the hospital entrance."
Liang Shixian said with a little dissatisfaction: "Luo Xi is so small, are you sure she is waiting for you outside alone?"
Ji Ruo thought that with Rosie's ability to automatically reset points and increase talents, it seemed that there was no need to worry too much.
"Don't worry about her. By the way, squad leader, how many tails did you take this time?"
Liang Shixian was stunned for a moment: "One, what's wrong?"
Ji Ruo asked, "Squad leader, don't you have two tails? Why did you only take one?"
Liang Shixian: “???”
He said unhappily, "The new hairtail hasn't grown any disease, why would I cut it off when I have nothing better to do?"
“It seems so~”
Liang Shixian: “…”
After a pause, Liang Shixian said tactfully with hesitation: "Ji Ruo, although you have reached the Qi Meridian realm now, martial arts practice is not a one-day thing, we can't slack off. I know you may like to stand out, but some fancy things are not good for martial arts practice..."
The implication was that he thought Ji Ruo shouldn't waste money and time on things like "dyeing her hair".
Ji Ruo naturally understood what Liang Shixian meant, and suddenly said seriously: "Squad leader, do you believe me?"
Liang Shixian was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, could it be that Ji Ruo had some unavoidable reasons?
After the martial arts test, he and Ji Ruo had become friends of life and death. Seeing Ji Ruo so serious, he subconsciously became serious.
"Of course I believe it, Ji Ruo, your hair, could it be..."
"Yes!"
Ji Ruo nodded seriously: "The color of my hair was washed out when I took a shower this morning. I never thought that a Qi-Pulse Realm warrior would be so powerful!"
"So... huh???"
Liang Shixian's face, which had been pale due to the surgery, suddenly turned dark. He said unhappily, "My surgery was on my abdomen, not my head!"
"I'm telling the truth!"
"Okay, okay." Liang Shixian felt a little regretful. After living together for seven days, he thought he had become somewhat immune to Ji Ruo's eccentricities, but now it seemed that he still could not adapt well to Ji Ruo's train of thought.
"Let's talk business." Liang Shixian looked at Ji Ruo and said, "What are you going to do about what the teacher said yesterday? My dad asked me about it today, but I didn't tell them the details. I just gave them a rough outline and didn't reveal anything."
Their experiences in the martial arts exam are not suitable for others to use as a reference!
It is not even appropriate to tell anyone about it... The martial arts exam, which is full of crises, is treated like an outing. Who would believe it if I tell others about it?
Ji Ruo was stunned for a moment: "What did the teacher talk about? Are we going to have a banquet?"
Liang Shixian was also stunned: "You didn't know? Last night, the teacher sent me a message to tell me that you had agreed!"
"I, agreed?"
Ji Ruo was a little confused. What did he promise?
…
