Mr. Jin chuckled and said, "Director Zhang does know even less. If Gu Long is still alive and Liang Yusheng's thoughts are normal, I will have someone to talk to. Otherwise, if I tell others, I won't be mistaken for a madman secretly." ?”
Liu Qingshan knew about Gu Long's death, but he knew nothing about Mr. Liang's current situation. He was the same age as Mr. Jin, and presumably his health was not optimistic.
However, Liu Qingshan did not ask any more questions. This kind of thing was a taboo topic for others, and it was etiquette not to mention it proactively.
At this time, Mr. Jin took out the piece of blood-red jade: "I always carry this stone with me, especially when I come to the mainland! As for that map, I don't want you to go to Xiangjiang to ask for it in the future. Maybe keep that fragile thing with you!”
Liu Qingshan kindly reminded him: "This is a precious thing that you have worn all your life, and it has an extraordinary origin, so you just let it go?"
As expected, Mr. Jin looked hesitant, but he was quickly relieved by a relieved smile, "For me, finding that senior expert, even if there are only some clues, is enough to give me peace of mind, and it's I don’t have the ability to control it, so I might as well give it out to someone as capable as you earlier!”
Liu Qingshan opened the thing carefully wrapped in golden velvet, and his heart was moved when he saw it. The color was bright and strange. There was actually a breath of life in this strange color, and it seemed to be the same as the colorless stalactite marrow. Tasteless is vaguely similar.
He immediately said it bluntly: "Old man, this piece of jade of yours is not a common thing. After holding it for so long, have you ever felt that there is life in it?"
The old man smiled and nodded: "More than 20 years ago, someone paid 10 million Hong Kong dollars to buy it. I knew it was rare!"
"With all due respect, your longevity may be related to it. Are you afraid that if you leave it to me, it will have a great impact on your health?"
"My little friend, I originally thought that although you are young, you are open-minded and open-minded, but why haven't you gotten rid of some worldly intrusions?"
"Don't be angry, old man, take a look at this thing first!"
As he spoke, Liu Qingshan stretched out his hand and took out a small jade bottle, which contained the diluted stalactite marrow.
"Old man, hold him in your hand and meditate. Have you ever felt a sense of familiarity?"
Mr. Jin took it in his hand as he was told, closed his eyes and examined it carefully. When he opened it again, it was already shining brightly: "Is it the same as that piece of jade?"
Liu Qingshan shook his head, "I'm not sure yet. Maybe there is a homologous aura between the two, but obviously your jade is a derivative and is far less essence and solid than my stalactite marrow!"
"Is it the stalactite marrow?!" Mr. Jin suddenly stood up, and the movement in his hand actually trembled slightly at the same time, obviously due to the urgency in his heart.
"Have you ever heard of it, senior?" Liu Qingshan immediately became serious.
"Everyone who practices traditional Chinese medicine knows about the existence of stalactite marrow, but I may know a little more, because I know that it has something to do with the ancient martial arts world!"
"Master, can you tell me in detail?"
"I can't tell, because I only saw a brief introduction to its functions in an old book. It was a "Miscellaneous History of Martial Arts" from the Ming Dynasty. There was only one sentence mentioned in it: Warriors are also in the world of spiritual practice. Use stalactite marrow as a good supplement, its quality needs to be thousands of years or more, if you want to ignore it, it is a rare treasure in heaven and earth."
"The name of that book is these four words? What is it specifically about?"
"The book is still in my study in Xiangjiang. You can see it when you go there! But it only records some folklore at that time, especially snakes, demons and monsters. I have always regarded it as "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" Read, the relationship between stalactite marrow and ancient martial arts is just my personal guess."
"That's right. The thing in your hand is the thousand-year-old stalactite marrow!"
Mr. Jin looked like he was frightened, and immediately handed the jade bottle back to Liu Qingshan's hand: "In this case, I don't dare to hold it anymore. It's a rare thing in the ancient martial arts world. Do you think I can?" Keep it?”
Liu Qingshan smiled and stuffed the jade bottle back into the old man's hand: "It is true that it is beneficial to practice, but it also requires deep perception to know its existence! You have lost this jade, so you should have it by your side. Otherwise I will never accept the jade!"
He already had some insights in his heart, and the fact that this old man lived to the age of 94 before passing away must have a lot to do with the personal collection of jade.
Besides, he might be looking for something related to stalactite marrow because of jade, so there would be no psychological barrier at all for paying such a small bottle of diluted substance.
"Boy, did you just say that this stone is just a derivative of stalactite marrow, and its preciousness is not trivial. You just handed it over to me? What will you do with your future practice?"
"I still have some in hand, and I think personal practice cannot simply rely on external objects, otherwise it will be far from the original intention of practice!"
"It's rare for you to have such long-term vision at your age! Well, I will reluctantly help you keep this jade bottle for a while. When I grow old one day, my family will definitely return it to you in person!"
Liu Qingshan smiled noncommittally, "But I have to remind you, sir, that this thing cannot be exposed to outsiders like that piece of jade. You can stuff it into your arms today, even when taking a shower. Take half a step away from your side, and never open the bottle!"
Mr. Jin said cheerfully: "Why do I feel like I'm holding a piece of hot yam when I hear you say that? Also, can you tell me why I can't open it?"
"Actually, there is nothing mysterious. To put it bluntly, stalactite marrow always condenses matter with energy. The energy contained in it is enough to destroy the meridians in the body of an acquired state of perfection. You have an ordinary person's physique. I am afraid you won't be able to bear it even if you smell it. !”
"This kind of energy is so terrifying? Oh my god, isn't this a small-scale energy fusion in some sense?"
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that at such an old age, you would actually be involved in modern technology! They are completely different things. The energy fusion you mentioned is an essence in which energy and mass can be converted into each other, while stalactite marrow belongs to a single conservation If an energy body does not go through the mass-energy conversion equation, how can a fusion reaction occur?"
"No, no, you don't have to explain it so thoroughly. I can't understand it even when I'm old! In short, I know that there will be no problem with it in my arms!"
"You are so easy to fool me. In fact, my explanation is complete nonsense. I just expressed my literal understanding based on those professional terms. Maybe what I meant is completely contrary to the essence of high technology, but there is one thing. I am certain that stalactite marrow is just a substance that has been condensed for countless years and is the essence of heaven and earth vitality. It is not harmful to the body if you don’t take it actively.”
"Are you so sure that I can live to this age just because of that stone?"
"It's not an affirmation, but my own feeling! Because I have taken stalactite marrow, I know that its greatest use is to drive away impurities in the body, and then replace it with more essential substances that are beneficial to the functional needs of the body. Although this jade cannot It has the same origin as stalactite marrow, but since the breath is similar, it must have the same magical effect, and you have been wearing it for decades!"
While the two of them were communicating, Zhang Dabeard beside him kept watching with dumbfounded eyes. He didn't know what he was thinking, but the envy in his eyes was obvious.
Liu Qingshan also noticed it and found a chance to tell him directly: "Director Zhang, your situation is different from Mr. Jin's. You are willing to accept my medical treatment in the future! I can't guarantee anything else, at least you can Like Mr. Jin, he will live to be over a hundred years old, do you believe me?"
"Believe it! Believe it!" Zhang Bearded nodded hurriedly, "Whenever you have free time, help me take a good look!"
Liu Qingshan said happily: "Your current physical condition is not very good! I don't need any special treatment for you, but in less than a month, the medicinal wine I developed will be available, and I will give it to you personally." Deliver it to your door! But I only have one small request, that is, the content of the conversation between me and Mr. Jin today cannot be leaked, not even the wife at home can reveal a word! "
He knew that this old man had a rich and colorful relationship experience. He was only in his fifties this year and would have new relationship experiences after he turned sixty, so he was given assurance.
He is not worried about this person's ulterior motives. No one is indifferent to his own life span. Of course, Mr. Jin in front of him is a special case.
Zhang Dabeard did as he wished, and made a decision very simply: "Shanzi, just relax, I will never make fun of my own life, and I will never renege on what I promised you!"
Liu Qingshan nodded: "Since you always agreed, I, Liu Qingshan, will treat you as my elder from now on."
Mr. Jin laughed heartily after hearing this: "Jianzhong, it seems we were right to call him over today. At least you and I have something to rely on for our future physical condition!"
Zhang Bearded said repeatedly: "Your decision is still correct. Although we all know that even if we don't have this conversation today, Shanzi will not just sit back and ignore us, but with a promise in advance, we will be more at ease earlier!" "
Unexpectedly, Mr. Jin's face suddenly changed: "I'm getting older and will become less and less useful in the future, but you are now in your prime, and Shanzi will need you for his future development in the entertainment industry. Further support!”
"That's nothing to say!" Zhang Dabeard patted his chest and said, "He treats me as his elder, and I will only treat him as my own, and I will definitely try my best to help him!"
Liu Qingshan changed the subject promptly: "I don't know the purpose of your visit to Kyoto this time. Do you want me to run some errands for you?"
A smile once again appeared on Mr. Jin's face: "Actually, he came with me this time to pass on the topic. His care is enough! This time I came to the mainland for an academic conference. I could have come or not, but Ge The director just called me before, and I actually knew a lot about you at that time. After checking more information, I decided to come and meet you!"
The subject of the biography is the old man's youngest son. The eldest son died young, which is an eternal pain in the old man's heart.
There are also two daughters, neither of whom inherited their father's business, and each has its own development.
