Siheyuan: Traveling through three years to gain the power of a palm

night.

Yan Jiecheng followed the Majia brothers and came to the courtyard where the master was again.

On the way, Ma Hu kept telling Yan Jiecheng that after he recovered, he would go on a killing spree in a certain alley, killing everyone and everyone in it, leaving the whole place in chaos and darkness!

Yan Jiecheng was so fascinated by what he said that his eyes were full of desire to fight. He wanted to find the girl of his heart immediately to discuss the true meaning of life!

After taking off the blindfold, Yan Jiecheng looked at the layout of the room, then looked at the two brothers Ma Jia and Ma Hu, and couldn't hold back his tears.

His own father, with whom he lived day and night, had injured him and refused to spend money on medical treatment, not even willing to express his feelings. Yet, these two strangers, who had only met a few times, were willing to share their healing methods with him. This was truly touching.

Thinking of this, Yan Jiecheng looked at Ma Jia and Ma Hu seriously and said, "Two big brothers."

The two Vests looked at each other, not knowing what Yan Jiecheng was up to. They stood up at the same time and said, "What's wrong, Brother Jiecheng?"

"My two elder brothers, I, Yan Jiecheng, have spent half my life without feeling any family affection or love, but through you two, I finally realized that there is still true love in the world."

"We've only met a few times, and you're willing to share your healing methods with me and even introduce me to a master, giving me hope for recovery. You're truly my savior."

Yan Jiecheng heaved a sigh of relief, having made a momentous decision. He looked at the two men in vests with sincerity and said, "My dear brothers, I, Yan Jiecheng, wish to become brothers with you!"

Yan Jiecheng's words shocked the two Majias; they hadn't expected Yan Jiecheng to pull such a tantrum. They exchanged glances, each reading in the other's eyes that Yan Jiecheng was a complete idiot. And they even became sworn brothers. Do you think you're acting out the Romance of the Three Kingdoms? Are you Liu Bei, Guan Yu, or Zhang Fei?

Ma Jia said, "Jie Cheng, brother, I don't think this is necessary. Although we are not brothers now, the relationship between us is not fake. It's no different from real brothers."

Ma Hu also said, "Big brother is right, brother Jie Cheng, although we are not related by blood, I felt a sense of familiarity when I saw you. Maybe it's because we have the same injury."

Yan Jiecheng was a little disappointed by Ma Jia and Ma Hu's reluctance, but he quickly adjusted himself. If they couldn't become sworn brothers, then they wouldn't. The most important thing today was to heal his injuries.

After Yan Jiecheng entered the master's room, Ma Hu couldn't help laughing. "Brother, what do you think Yan Jiecheng is thinking? He actually wants to become brothers with us. Is he crazy?"

Ma Jia also agreed with this. They used to be bandits. To put it nicely, bandits are called green forest heroes, who value righteousness above all else.

But in those days, those who valued loyalty met their end. How many loyal people survived? What's the point of being loyal? Can it guarantee that your subordinates won't turn against you?

It's not uncommon for someone to reveal his brother's name right after being arrested.

In the room.

Yan Jiecheng looked at Xia Lao Hu performing the ritual with a pious look on his face. Now he had really been fooled.

After some operations, Xia Lao Hu brought a bowl of holy water to Yan Jiecheng.

"Yan Jiecheng, drink the holy water. I will cast a spell for you. Then, with the last dose of medicine, I will be able to restore your virility! Be a real man."

Yan Jiecheng knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily, "Thank you, Master, for the holy water!"

He took the holy water and drank it all in one gulp. It was a little sweet.

Not long after, Yan Jiecheng felt his head getting heavy, his eyes went dark and he passed out.

Xia Lao Hu kicked Yan Jiecheng a few times, and when he saw that he had no reaction, he called Ma Jia and Ma Hu in.

"Come on, fix the black bump on him."

……

When Yan Jiecheng woke up, he saw the master sitting on a mat, sweating profusely and breathing heavily, as if he had just experienced a vigorous battle.

"Master, what are you doing?"

"It's nothing, just a bit of a drain. It was the same when I treated Ma Hu. After all, it's impossible to borrow the power of a great immortal without paying a price. This time, it has shortened my life span by two and a half years."

Xia Lao Hu is talking nonsense.

But Yan Jiecheng took it seriously, "Master, I am so touched by your kindness to me. This is a small gift from me. You can use it to buy two chickens to nourish your body."

Xia Lao Hu sighed softly, "Originally, you've received my secret method, and you should be fine after taking medicine for another month. Now, since you're so sincere, I'll get you some more medicine. Taking the two medicines together will make you get better faster, and it won't cost you anything."

Xia Lao Hu's words made Yan Jiecheng overjoyed. After these two contacts, he also knew the temper of this master, which could be summed up in three words - he was obsessed with money!

It was really difficult to tell from his mouth that he didn't charge money.

A few minutes later, the master came back with a few packets of medicine and a bottle.

"Just take this medicine as usual. This is for half a month. Take the medicine in this bottle twice a day, morning and evening, two pills each time. This will last you ten days. After taking the medicine, you will be like a normal man."

Hearing this, Yan Jiecheng immediately became excited. He had spent so much money and suffered so much just to be a man. Now hearing the master say this, he felt as if he could stand up again.

"However, you must remember that this medicine must be taken on time and in the correct dosage. You can take less, but absolutely not more, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

When Yan Jiecheng's mind and eyes were full of the medicine in his arms, Xia Lao Hu said something like a precaution.

……

A week had passed since Yan Jiecheng received his last dose of medicine, and there was only one day's supply left in the bottle.

He didn't know what was going on. He was fine at first, but as he was eating, he couldn't help but eat two more pills. If he didn't eat them, he would feel very uncomfortable and uncomfortable all over.

Look, the uncomfortable feeling is back again.

Yan Jiecheng felt as if thousands of ants were biting him. He scratched his body hard to relieve the pain, but he scratched his skin until it was broken and bleeding, but it still didn't work.

Yan Jiecheng rolled on the ground several times, repeatedly saying, "I can't take it anymore. That's the last day's worth of medicine."

Yan Jiecheng struggled with bloodshot eyes, his inner desire driving his body to open the bottle of medicine and swallow it, but his remaining rationality mentally stopped him!

The body and the spirit are constantly clashing and colliding with each other.

Finally, Yan Jiecheng opened the bottle and swallowed the last four pills in one breath.

After doing all this, Yan Jiecheng felt the pain in his body gradually dissipate, replaced by a very pleasant feeling. He sat comfortably on the ground, like a puddle of mud.

Chapter 183 Jiang Fan’s Decision

Jiang Fan stopped and turned to look at Yan Jiecheng's house. If he heard correctly, Yan Jiecheng's cry just now seemed to be somewhat comfortable.

"This isn't right. Shouldn't Yan Jiecheng be in excruciating pain and screaming after eating those rotten grass roots? Why is he even screaming out in pleasure?"

After Jiang Fan learned that Yan Jiecheng had been deceived, he revealed the matter to Xu Damao and then ignored it. What did Yan Jiecheng's life or death have to do with him?

But now it seems that something has changed.

In the evening, Jiang Fan found Xu Damao and asked him how the investigation was going.

"To be honest, I don't know the specific situation. The last time I met with my father-in-law, he said that he would take care of everything and would notify me when the time was right and tell me what to do next."

Xu Damao lit a fire for Jiang Fan, and the two of them squatted outside the alley. There were pregnant women at home who couldn't stand the smell of smoke. Jiang Ping'an's wife was pregnant again, and it had been over a month.

Xu Damao took a puff of his cigarette and continued, "My father-in-law wants to make this a bigger deal so that I can get more credit. But he also told me that he will try his best to limit the victim to Yan Jiecheng and prevent others from being deceived."

"Go ask around tomorrow to see how far the investigation has progressed. Come back and tell me so I can decide when to close the net."

"Okay." Xu Damao obeyed Jiang Fan's words. He knew one thing very well: if you don't have the ability, then follow those who have the ability. Even if you can't eat the meat, you can still drink the soup.

Jiang Fan returned to the house and cleaned the Makarov pistol. He had had the pistol for almost two and a half years, but he had never actually used it.

Perhaps it is time for it to appear next. Although his physical fitness and fighting skills are enough to cope with various fighting scenes, how can he be a master if he doesn't use his gun and relies on martial arts?

On a quiet night, Jiang Fan opened Yan Jiecheng's room and easily found the medicine Yan Jiecheng was taking.

"These medicines are all right, they're just some broken grass roots, coptis chinensis and the like. What about that thing?"

After hearing Yan Jiecheng's comfortable moan, Jiang Fan suspected he had smoked. He couldn't think of anything else that could make Yan Jiecheng so comfortable. He came here just to confirm it. If it was really opium, he had to get it done as soon as possible.

In Jiang Fan's opinion, it is tolerable to engage in feudal superstition and cheat people out of money. After all, such things have happened from ancient times to the present and will continue to happen in the future. He even went to the street to have his fortune told when he was in college.

But Dayan, no! The education he received in two lifetimes would not allow such a thing to happen under his nose!

Just like when Xu Damao went to the backdoor, Jiang Fan would tease him. If Xu Damao went to gamble, Jiang Fan would stay away from him and say he had no money. But if Xu Damao smoked opium, Jiang Fan would beat him up every time he saw him! He would beat him up until Xu Wude didn't even recognize him, and Xu Wude would still applaud!

Jiang Fan searched for a long time but still couldn't find any trace of opium. He looked at Yan Jiecheng who was sleeping soundly and shook his head slightly.

The next day.

Xu Damao went to see Lou Zhenhua again to ask about the progress of the matter, and said bluntly that it was Jiang Fan who asked him to ask. He knew that in Lou Zhenhua's eyes, Jiang Fan was much more important than him as his son-in-law.

Sure enough, when Lou Zhenhua heard that it was Jiang Fan who asked Xu Damao to come, his expression changed unconsciously.

"Da Mao, go back and tell Jiang Fan that this matter can be concluded in the next two days. No one else will be involved, except for that person named Yan Jiecheng. Also, take this and read the investigation report of these days."

Xu Damao came quickly and left quickly. He stayed at Lou's house for less than five minutes and then came out. After coming out, he rushed to the steel rolling mill and delivered the information to Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan flipped through the information on the paper, shaking his head and making a clicking sound as he read. "Poor Yan Jiecheng, being toyed around by a woman and three bandits, like a donkey."

Jiang Fan had not conducted an in-depth investigation into Yan Jiecheng's matter, but now this information laid out the entire cause and effect before his eyes.

After Yan Jiefen formed his family, he lost control of himself for a while and spent a lot of money enjoying life, and was thus targeted by Xia Lao Hu and his gang.

After his heroic act of saving the damsel in distress, Yan Jiecheng felt increasingly unfit for life, his mind preoccupied with healing. He then fell prey to a carefully crafted trap set by Xia Lao Hu and his gang. The rest of the story was a series of maneuvers Yan Jiecheng was completely manipulated by Xia Lao Hu's gang.

"Sure enough, those guys have the black lumps. If it's not with Xia Lao Hu, then it's with that woman called Ah Zhu. Humph, Yan Jiecheng is already addicted. I guess he'll go crazy if he doesn't have anything to eat in the next two days. Then this matter will be over."

Jiang Fan gave the information to Xu Damao and asked him to take a look.

The more Xu Damao watched, the more frightened he became. "Oh my god, Yan Jiecheng is so unlucky! He got scammed out of his money, and the girl he loved but dared not touch got kicked out by someone else. And that's not all, they even gave him a black mark! This guy's life is finished."

For a moment, Xu Damao felt a deep sympathy for Yan Jiecheng. This was unfortunate. But for him, this was a good thing. Reporting a feudal superstition and a feudal superstitious gang that used opium to harm people were two different things.

Xu Damao looked at Jiang Fan, wondering what to do next.

Without further ado, Jiang Fan told him to just wait. They waited for Yan Jiecheng to become ill. Then, they stumbled upon him and, motivated by the desire to help others, decided to take him to the hospital. During that time, Yan Jiecheng revealed information about the opium, and they immediately reported it to the police station. The rest would be left to the police.

Xu Damao thought this was an imperfect and even crude plan.

Jiang Fan glanced at him and said in a calm tone, "Of course, if you are willing to fight those three gangsters and bring them to justice, I personally support you morally and am even willing to lend you a gun."

"There's no need for that. Let's leave this matter to the police. Professional matters should be left to professionals, right?" Xu Damao said from the heart. He was not a reckless man like Sha Zhu who dared to do anything.

As long as he waits patiently for Yan Jiecheng to fall ill, he can easily get a certificate of "Excellent Citizen", and even show up in front of the leaders of the steel rolling mill. Then he can take the certificate and publicize his achievements in the middle courtyard of the quadrangle and in front of Sha Zhu's house. This is such a good thing!

The two of them finalized such a simple plan.

Chapter 184 The Action Begins

The sun sets in the west, and the setting sun shines brightly.

Perhaps because he took a day's worth of medicine at one time, Yan Jiecheng did not experience any adverse reactions for a whole day and a half.

During this day and a half, he looked extremely well and was extremely excited, as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

However, a day and a half passed quickly, and Yan Jiecheng's body began to itch again, and the feeling of being bitten by ants appeared on his body again.

Yan Jiecheng kept grabbing at it, but it still didn't work.

"Medicine, medicine, I need medicine."

He rummaged around and found the packets of Chinese medicine, "Not this one, where is the bottle?" He searched for a while, and then sat down on the ground dejectedly. He remembered that after taking the medicine, he accidentally broke the bottle and swept it away.

"No, I have to go find the master to get some medicine."

Yan Jiecheng forced himself to go out and find his brothers, asking them to take him to see the master.

Coincidentally, as soon as he walked out of the yard, he ran into Jiang Fan and Xu Damao who were returning from the supply and marketing cooperative to buy cigarettes.

"Hey, isn't that Yan Jiecheng? Why are you like this? Are you constipated or have diarrhea?"

When Xu Damao saw Yan Jiecheng's condition, he knew that he was having a seizure. He couldn't suppress the smile on his face at all. If there were no other people around, he would have wanted to laugh out loud.

"Xu Damao, get out of here. I don't have time to talk nonsense with you right now."

Yan Jiecheng held the door frame with one hand, bent over and waved.

Xu Damao shrugged and looked at Jiang Fan, "Brother, do you think we stopped him?"

"No, he's at least three meters away from us. Even if he jumped up with his hands outstretched, he couldn't touch us. And looking at his condition, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold it in if he jumps up."

Jiang Fan's taunts irritated Yan Jiecheng, who was standing above him. He reached out and tried to grab Jiang Fan. He could ignore Xu Damao's taunts, but he absolutely could not stand Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan smiled and took two steps back. Xu Damao stretched out his arm to stop Yan Jiecheng, "Yan Jiecheng, you don't even take me seriously. I'm still here, and you dare to attack my brother."

"Xu Damao, get out of here! Are you Jiang Fan's dog?" Yan Jiecheng roared.

"Okay, stop talking and save your energy. If you have the energy to do this, you might as well go to the hospital and check your body. Tsk tsk tsk tsk."

Shaking off Yan Jiecheng, Xu Damao looked at him with disdain, as if he were looking at a dog. Jiang Fan swore that Xu Damao had never used such a look even when looking at Sha Zhu.

Yan Jiecheng staggered and fell to the ground, looking at Jiang Fan and Xu Damao with hatred, as if he wanted to eat Jiang Fan and Xu Damao alive.

"What are you looking at, you damn eunuch!"
