Chapter 96: Innate Qi

The next morning, after the police came and took the tall and short men away, the "Exploration" program crew also finished recording and left. Before leaving, Ji Ruoxuan wanted to get a ride in Jiang Wu's car, but Bi Yan dragged him into his agent's car.

Jiang Wu didn't mean to prevent him from taking a ride, but because he wanted to stay to help Bai Xianling treat his illness.

After seeing the gunshot wound on Bai Xianling's chest, Jiang Wu understood why a cultivator in the Delusion Realm could be injured by two ordinary people, because there was a concealment spell engraved on the bullet.

A cultivator in the Delusion Realm can initially perceive his own cause and effect and sense his own misfortune and fortune, so he can avoid the bullet, but the concealment spell of the bullet can avoid the intuition of a Delusion Realm cultivator, so Bai Xianling was shot into the heart by it.

Fortunately, the bullet was blocked by a stream of Qi one inch away from the heart, but the Qi also sealed Bai Xianling's tendons and veins at the same time, making it impossible for him to use his Taoist magic.

Qi is the original power formed by the unique skills of Xuanmen Taoism. It is more powerful than the power of the soul of the Siming clan and can directly harm objects. The power of the soul is often used in conjunction with spells.

And this Taoist Qi is the innate Qi, which is rare in the world. Most of those who possess it are born into the Taoist sect. Jiang Wu has lived for more than two hundred years and has only seen one person with innate Qi, who was his Taoist friend. He did not expect that after more than two hundred years, he would actually see a second one in modern times.

This innate Qi is extremely powerful, and its owner's strength should be at the sixth level of Heyou Realm, or even at the seventh level of Huaxu. If it was Jiang Wu the night before, he would not be able to move at all. However, after absorbing the spiritual power from the black jade all night last night, he was able to remove it safely and heal the original injury with spells.

The treatment lasted for an hour. Jiang Wucai successfully pulled the bullet out of Bai Xianling's body and healed his heart injury at the same time.

After Bai Xianling suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, he became more alert. He looked at Jiang Wu with a bit of surprise, "You... are not from the Taoist sect."

People in the Taoist sect do not have such strong spiritual power, and the spells used by Jiang Wu are also different from Taoist spells. He felt it the moment it entered his heart.

Jiang Wu did not hide it and admitted it directly. He also asked him who left the innate Qi in his heart.

Bai Xianling smiled, "You also know them, they are the two Taoist priests named Zhou who came to visit us earlier, Zhou Yannan."

Jiang Wuyi was stunned. He was Zhou Yannan again, and like his friend, he had the same surname Zhou.

Is it just a coincidence?

Bai Xianling saw him lost in thought, his eyes fell on the bloody bullet on the table, and his expression became solemn after he recognized that the tiny spell engraved on it was the same text that Professor Cheng had shown him before.

In today's world, except for Taoism, all other mysterious schools have declined. He did not expect that there are still sorcerers in the world, and they use spells to hurt people. Such people hiding among ordinary people will undoubtedly cause great hidden dangers.

And there is this young man in front of me who is full of secrets.

He looked at Jiang Wu, "Mr. Jiang, do you know who hurt me?"

"I don't know." Jiang Wu knew that the old man saw that he was a sorcerer, so he said frankly, "I'm looking for it too."

Bai Xianling understood immediately after hearing this, "You saved my life, I owe you a favor. If you need my help in the future, as long as I, Bai Xianling, can help, just tell me."

Jiang Wubu thought that a man in his seventies could not help him much, so he said casually, "It's just a piece of cake."

Anyway, he was taking away a treasure that had been guarded by generations of ancestors, so saving a life was really nothing.

But he still took the bullet away, and Bai Xianling agreed.

The door was opened, and Luo Yun hurried to the bedside to check on his master. He felt relieved to see that he was not only fine, but also in much better spirits.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang." Luo Yunzheng clasped his fists solemnly.

Jiang Wu said "hmm" nonchalantly, met Han Zhong's gaze at the door, and was about to step out of the threshold when Bai Xianling called him from behind, "Mr. Jiang, if you need anything from me in the future--"

"No need." Jiang Wu interrupted him and said to Luo Yun, "By the way, remember to take your master to the hospital. He is too old to die easily. You need to prevent infection."

Luo Yun said respectfully, "I'll remember that."

Bai Xianling saw that he didn't care and smiled helplessly, "Don't look at my age, I'm actually very powerful."

Han Zhong roughly guessed what the two were talking about, and saw a smile in Jiang Wu's eyes. He was standing against the light, and his outline looked a little blurry, but Jiang Wu could see the smile clearly, which made him feel familiar.

Jiang Wuxin suddenly relaxed a little, and turned his head to look at the old Taoist priest sitting on the bed, "If you really want to remember this favor, then just consider it as a friend of mine."

Bai Xianling was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, "Okay, then we are friends?"

Jiang Wu laughed as he looked up at his laughing face. "Take good care of yourself in your old age. Remember to get more sun. Don't die suddenly."

It can only be said that this is very Jiang Wu, Bai Xianling smiled and replied, "I know."

Jiang Wu looked at him for a moment, then turned and walked out of the room, "Let's go."

Han Zhong walked out of the courtyard with him, his eyes falling on his slightly raised mouth, "You are very nice to him, unlike others."

Jiang Wu said, "Hmm," "I quite like Taoist priests."

"Why?"

"I used to have a friend who was also a Taoist priest. He was very interesting."

"Where is he now?"

"Dead."

Han Zhong was stunned, "How did he die?"

Jiang Wu said calmly, "I don't know, maybe he died of old age, or maybe he died of illness. I didn't see his body, but I received a letter from him one day, telling me that he was going to die."

He spoke calmly, but Han Zhong sensed a hint of sadness, "Why didn't you go and see?"

This time Jiang Wu was silent for a while before replying, "I can't go."

Han Zhong felt a sudden tension in his heart. "Why?"

Jiang Wu did not answer him until he walked out of Qingyang Taoist Temple. He looked at the misty Qingming Mountain in the distance and said slowly, "Because something happened that I didn't expect."

The morning sun in the mountains shone on this ancient Taoist temple with a light orange glow. Jiang Wu stood facing the light, and the cool breeze blew his loose coat and slightly long hair. Han Zhong looked at his back and felt a little nervous, so he stepped forward and held his hand.

Jiang Wu tilted his head and looked at him, seeming a little confused.

Han Zhong said nonchalantly, "It's nothing, I was just worried that you would fall."

The mountain road under their feet was a very narrow stone road. The dew in the early morning made the stone slabs wet. If you were not careful, you would slip, but you would not fall down because there was a piece of grass next to it.

But Jiang Wu didn't expose him. Instead, he looked at his profile and said, "Yesterday you asked me if I was angry, and I said I wasn't angry, and that was the truth."

Han Zhong waited quietly for his next words.

"I just suddenly thought that one day you will get married, have children, become a husband, become a father, and then die. "Human life is too short, like the morning dew in the mountains, like the afterglow of the sunset, it will be gone in a flash, and then I will no longer -"

I can't see you anymore.

Jiang Wu was unable to utter the last half of the sentence because Han Zhong suddenly hugged him, tightening his arms little by little, as if he wanted to rub him into his body, surrounding him with the familiar scent of his body temperature.

Jiang Wu leaned against his neck, somewhat unresponsive, and heard Han Zhong's low voice close to him, "I will always be with you, believe me."

Jiang Wu opened his mouth but said nothing. He believed it because Yan Zhong had done the same thing before. Then he watched the other person slowly close his eyes and never open them again.

At the bottom of the stone steps, Rong Anzhou looked at the two people hugging each other at the top of the stone steps with a look of disgust on his face, "You can even carry each other all the way down the mountain, isn't that disgusting?"

Yao Ping pursed his lips and dared not say a word.

At this moment, a cell phone rang. Yao Ping took out his phone and answered it. He didn't know what the other end said, but his expression began to become solemn and confused.

"What's wrong?"

"Lisa, the second assistant to President Han, has been taken to the police station..."

"???"
