Huai Hu tiptoed back to the living room and whispered:
"When I came here today, I saw Lao Li muttering to himself, occasionally shouting out some technical terms I didn't understand. Ah said, don't worry, he went to the lab to prepare medicine to treat sudden heart failure. However, I think Lao Li's sudden change is probably more than just an illness, so I hope you can come and see him when you have time."
"Okay, I got it. I'll go over right away and tell Ah Xian not to give Lao Li the medicine."
Chen Huijie took on the job, and the moment he hung up the phone, Jessica immediately asked nervously:
"Mr. Chen, are you going to be busy?"
"Ah, something happened with my friend, I have to take a look."
Chen Huijie nodded, exchanged contact information with Jessica, and then turned and left. Jessica opened her mouth, but in the end just repeated her request to remember to take care of her grandfather, and then she couldn't say anything else. Jessica felt that it was really not easy for her to take the initiative to negotiate with others this time.
but....
Jessica tilted her head, thinking with some confusion.
Mr. Chen asked me when I was leaving and which bus I was taking. What was he doing? Was he going to see me off? Or...was he going with me?! If that was the case, shouldn't I book a special train first?
Just when Jessica was considering whether to buy a special train, Chen Huijie had already arrived at the Li Detective Agency. When he opened the door, he saw Huai Hu hiding nervously behind the sofa, and Lao Li dancing there for some reason.
"Mr. Chen, hurry..."
It was obvious that Huai Hu wanted to call out to Chen Huijie, so she quickly hid behind the sofa like her. However, as the door opened, Lao Li also obviously heard the sound of the door opening. He suddenly turned around, looked at Chen Huijie, and shouted with joy:
"Ah! I got it! I got it! I! Got it!"
"What did you realize?"
Looking at the old carp rushing towards him, Chen Huijie understood that this person simply wanted to hug him, but looking at the talismans stuck on his left and right hands, and the force of his rush, Chen Huijie felt that if he didn't react, he would be sent to the hospital.
So, Chen Huijie shouted coldly. Huai Hu only felt that the sound was loud, but Lao Li, who was locked by the true energy, felt as if he was in an ancient bell. The cold shout that kept echoing stimulated him so much that he covered his ears with a cry, and his body lost its balance and fell to the ground with a thud.
Chen Huijie took the opportunity to step forward, hold down Lao Li, pinch the magic formula with his hand, and press it against Lao Li's forehead. Through the physical contact, the power of the heart sword spread a little. At that moment, the stimulation from the soul level made Lao Li's crazy will suddenly sober up.
"I...I seem to have had a very unreal dream."
Although Chen Huijie had already let go of his hand, Lao Li was still lying on the ground, saying in a dazed tone:
"In the dream, I seemed to be omnipotent, and the creation of heaven and earth was in my hands."
"You...let me ask you first, how did you end up like this?"
Chen Huijie lifted up the old carp with a subtle expression, asked Huai Hu to get some hot water, and then said softly:
"Old Li, we should be healthy and not practice those weird things."
"Let's just ask, is it possible..."
The old carp was like a wilted eggplant, and said weakly:
"I didn't practice any other nonsense, just the booklet you gave me."
"Impossible. I practiced that booklet myself, based on my own experience."
Chen Huijie couldn't help but retort:
"Look at me, do you think I look abnormal now?"
"But I just learned it from your booklet!"
Lao Li said with a grievance:
"Besides, I don't think I've practiced wrong. I'm not a rookie. I can't be unable to tell the difference."
"...Bring me the brochure."
Chen Huijie thought for a moment, then waited for Lao Li to take out the booklet. He stood behind him, motioning Huai Hu to stay away, and then he said softly:
"Come on, learn it in front of me. I want to see what went wrong."
"Then when you woke me up, you shouldn't have been so harsh."
Lao Li naturally didn't think that Chen Huijie was harming him. He also wanted to figure out what was going on. After all, there was such a good skill in front of him. If he couldn't learn it, Lao Li would feel very uncomfortable!
So Chen Huijie watched Lao Li go from calm to pain, from pain to peace of mind, and then he started to go crazy.
"This shouldn't be the case."
Chen Huijie casually hit Lao Li, who immediately came to his senses. He took the booklet, flipped through it, and said with a slightly frown:
"There's nothing wrong with this. I think it's normal. This is all my personal experience. How could this happen to you when you were learning?"
"Master Chen, how about..."
Lao Li thought for a moment, rubbed his hands and said:
"Please publish a simpler, easier-to-understand pamphlet. This might be a bit too advanced for me."
Lao Li said this with conviction. When he first read this thing, he was confused. He didn't know what it was all about. If it wasn't given to him by Chen Huijie, he would have thrown this booklet away.
And now, even though Lao Li has practiced this thing like crazy, he still feels that he seems not to have grasped the essence of the profound meaning of this booklet.
"This... is already very simple."
Chen Huijie also said helplessly:
"That's a pretty easy-to-understand explanation. How about I show you the unedited version?"
"show me!"
When Lao Li heard this, he immediately became interested. Chen Huijie did not hide it either. With a wave of his hand, he quickly completed the first chapter. Lao Li took it excitedly and took a look. After reading it carefully, he closed it decisively.
Indeed, this first edition is totally incomprehensible. I know every word on it, but how come when they are strung together, they don't sound like human language?
Wait, maybe I have a trick...
At this moment, Chen Huijie thought of something. Last night, through the storybook, Chen Huijie also figured out some things. If he could use them in this magic explanation booklet, could he avoid the current situation that would make people go crazy?
"Brother Chen, come to think of it, I remember you told me before..."
On the other side, Lao Li also remembered something and looked at Chen Huijie and said:
"You seem to have given this pamphlet to someone else. Are you sure there won't be any problems there?"
"No, this definitely won't happen."
Chen Huijie waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "My talent as a Celestial Master isn't great. My teacher assured me of this. There are plenty of people smarter and more talented than me in the Celestial Master's Mansion. I was just lucky enough to catch that fleeting inspiration. I believe those veteran Celestial Masters will understand what I mean after reading my booklet. Don't worry about that."
No, buddy, are you talking about the Tianshi Mansion that I know?
Lao Li was stunned after hearing what he said. What was going on? Why did you suddenly make me act like I had poor talent? I was able to enter the Tianshi Mansion in the past. If you want me to admit that my talent is not as good as yours, then I must admit it. Even if you ask me to serve you tea and kowtow to you to become your disciple, I will still accept it.
But you're telling me there are tons of people with better talents than you at the Tianshi Temple? Who's your teacher? Isn't that a bit much? Can you invite your teacher over so I can have a discussion with him? Aren't you just saying this out of the blue because he's afraid you'll get carried away?
"Okay, forget about the masters from Tianshi Mansion. I have an idea. Let's go to your room and try it out."
While Chen Huijie was conducting the test, a master from the Tianshi Mansion had already arrived at the north of Dahuang City with his waist covered. It was obvious that he also used the high-speed catapult movement device that simulated the thunder method.
The reason why he was in such a hurry to travel was just for that booklet. When the others in the Tianshi Mansion were still arguing about who would go to pick up the amateur scientist, he realized that something was not right in the booklet. The Tianshi, who had been exposed to some evil knowledge, keenly realized that the second half of the booklet was more complicated than what they discussed.
Therefore, the Heavenly Master made a request to the Emperor and went all the way to the evil demon defense line in the north of Dayan to take this to the old Heavenly Master for a look.
"You look like you need help. I know a good doctor. I'll take you there."
At this time, a gentle voice was heard. The Taoist priest turned his head and saw that the person who spoke had a pair of delicate horns standing quietly, and a slender and flexible tail swaying gently behind her. Her ears were pointed and slightly upturned, adding a bit of elf-like agility and playfulness to this already beautiful face.
Her hairstyle is unique, with an air intake-like design. The layers of hair are cleverly woven together, making her look capable yet feminine. An ancient hairpin is cleverly inserted in her hair, and the hairpin is carved with delicate patterns, exuding the luster of time.
In terms of clothing, she chose a shoulder-baring dress. The sleeveless design showed off her slender arms and elegant shoulder lines. Her skin glowed softly in the morning light, revealing a casual sexiness.
She paired it with a pair of high-waisted trousers that were well-cut. They not only outlined her graceful figure, but also made her look capable and neat. She wore a pair of simple short boots on her feet, but judging from the boots, it seemed that she had just walked in the mud.
"Why, are you worried that I'm a bad person?"
She continued to speak, her voice soft and magnetic, with a slight rhythm of Minnan dialect flowing from her lips like the gurgling of a stream.
"Master Shu, I didn't expect to see you here."
The Heavenly Master recognized this person. She was Shu, one of the Sui Pian. Although she was only a Sui Pian, her achievements could not be erased by Dayan. At least the Heavenly Master in front of him still had respect for this Sui Pian.
"I'm fine. I'm just not used to this new device. Master Shu, please be busy. I'm on my way now."
After saying this, the Taoist priest continued to run towards the defense line.
Shu didn't try to persuade him to stay. Actually, she wasn't very busy at the moment. She had come to the outside of the Great Wasteland City simply to relax. For some reason, she had been having terrible dreams these past few days. It seemed as if the entire Great Wasteland City had been contaminated by evil spirits, with distorted and terrifying scenes everywhere...
But after waking up from the dream, Shu used her power of "cause and effect" to try to figure out the cause and effect, but no matter what she did, she couldn't figure it out, which made Shu feel uneasy.
“How could this happen…?”
Shu sat in the wilderness, looking at the north and murmured. She had seen too many causes and effects, but she had never seen such a thing that seemed to have exhausted all causes and effects. Could it be that the destruction of the Great Wilderness City meant that there was no hope of survival at all?
"..."
Shu did not speak, but stood up silently. Although cause and effect are predetermined, some things must be done even if one knows that they cannot be done. One cannot let all this be "lifeless".
So, Shu stood up, turned around and walked towards Dahuang City. At least he had to finish all the things he could do. Speaking of which, last night, your sister unexpectedly contacted me in my dream and said she wanted to come over. I don’t know what trouble this sister of mine got into outside that she would come to my place to hide away.
I can't possibly have pissed off my big brother, if that were the case then it would be true...
"Master Shu, long time no see."
"Old Heavenly Master? Why are you in the Great Wasteland City?"
290 Old Heavenly Master: Taifu, you kid.jpg
Shu looked up and saw a little loli with blonde hair and golden eyes sitting on a tree branch, shaking her legs. She looked very energetic, especially since she was wearing an off-shoulder dress and short boots, which made her look even more energetic.
But Shu knew very well that this was one of the most senior Heavenly Masters in Dayan, whose real name was unknown. She had been guarding the Tianji Pavilion for more than 370 years and was the core of the evil demon front in the north. She looked like a petite blonde girl, but in fact she was hundreds of years old.
After the old Taoist priest greeted Shu, she suddenly stopped talking and turned to play with the leaves beside her. She was still whipping them in an uncontrollable manner. After hitting them twice, she seemed to be furious and summoned a few small sparks to set the leaves on fire.
However, Shu didn't care about this, but had a helpless expression. The old Taoist priest usually acted like this in a perverse and naughty way, but she did this to resist the evil spirits from polluting her mind. It was a helpless situation.
"Master Shu, you're not busy in the fields, but sitting here looking at the wilderness. Is something bothering you again?"
At this time, the old Taoist priest shifted his attention from the leaves to the millet, and said in a slightly playful tone:
"Tell me about it. I'm in a good mood now and can give you some advice."
"Nothing much. It's just what I told you last time, Old Heavenly Master. This Great Wasteland City will become lifeless in the future. But lately, for some reason, my dreams have been particularly clear. I can even see the shadow of the evil demon."
The old Taoist priest also knew about Shu's causal power. He had told him about the consequences of this city several times. To this, the old Taoist priest waved his hand and said, "I don't care."
"The evil spirits are welcome to come, but who says we can't drive those filthy creatures away once they've arrived? Master Shu, instead of worrying about them, why don't you go walk around the fields more often and see how the crops are doing this year?"
Shu just smiled. Cause and effect, no matter what the cause is, the result has already appeared, so we can only deal with it according to the old Taoist priest's words. However, Shu remembered something and looked at the old Taoist priest and said:
"Old Heavenly Master, that Heavenly Master just came here in a hurry from Baizao. I'm afraid he has something important to tell you. Do you want to..."
"No, no, I've already agreed. I'm going to recuperate in the Great Wasteland City for a while. I have people on the other side of the battle line to contact me. If those filthy people start making trouble again, I won't be able to rest."
As the old Taoist priest was muttering, he looked up at the large dark clouds floating in the sky, took out the palm-leaf fan tucked behind his waist, and waved it casually. Then the large dark clouds floating towards Dahuang City disappeared out of thin air.
"Okay, okay, let's go, let's go and take a look at the fields."
At the urging of the old Taoist priest, Shu also stood up with a smile and walked towards Dahuang City.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the demonic front, the Heavenly Master, who had been running furiously with his hands on his waist, finally encountered a docking station. He didn't care about his image and simply lay down on the ground, feeling the comfort of his waist being settled. He couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, then hurriedly took out the rubbing of the booklet from his arms, handed it to the docking personnel with a bewildered face, and said urgently:
"Hurry up and give this to the master. I've already written the reason on the inside of the cover, huh!"
This Heavenly Master was right. Most of the Heavenly Masters and soldiers in the Heavenly Secret Pavilion were her disciples, grandchildren, and even great-grandchildren. However...
In other words, the connection was too smooth. He just finished speaking and passed it on, leaving no room for the docking personnel to ask any questions. What else could be done? The docking Taoist priest could only pick up the booklet and quickly pass it on.
This is a battle line after all. Although it involves evil spirits and the main links are quite troublesome, the efficiency is surprisingly high. Not long after, this booklet was handed to the great masters who were temporarily in charge of the battle line.
Worried that there might be something important inside, one of the great masters quickly opened it and looked inside the cover, and then...
"What's wrong? What are you standing there for? Speak!"
The great Taoist priest beside him couldn't help but speak anxiously, and directly snatched the booklet away, and then...
"What's wrong with you? Why are you all silent?"
The last great Taoist priest in the tent whispered with a subtle expression, and at the same time, he had already reached for his own Taoist priest's instrument. In this place, if something unexpected happened, they would have to rely on her to hold on until the old Taoist priest came back.
"Young people nowadays are really good at getting people to do things their way. Look at this amateur technical manual I collected from below. Those young disciples are actually stumped. Hand this booklet over and let the old master ponder it."
