Chen Hongjing was soaking in the large tank, just like soaking in a hot spring. He leaned on the edge of the tank with his hands, but it was not as comfortable as soaking in a hot spring. He grabbed the sides of the tank with both hands, fearing that the charm on his legs would later press against the bottom of the tank. He finally knew that this crazy old man either wanted to eat him or play with him. Although he hit him so hard every time, he hadn't completely killed him yet. Moreover, it is already the fifth day.
Chen Hongjing looked at the crazy old man's back and guessed that he was just trying to scare himself when he said he would kill Fan Xiaoxi. He didn't know what the purpose of this crazy old man was, but he was certain that his life would not be in danger. As for asking him why, it's probably even harder than going to heaven.
Chen Hongjing took a deep breath, held the sides of the tank tightly with both hands, pressed the sides of the tank hard, and used the force to push himself out. I saw the crazy old man saying without looking back: "Okay, little bastard, the talisman I drew on your leg will make you gain ten pounds a day. You get used to it so quickly. Okay, how about you draw one more talisman?" Pen, twenty pounds a day?”
You really got used to it quickly. The time in the bath was getting longer day by day. Chen Hongjing still couldn't help it and begged for mercy: "Sir, what do you want to do? I have something else to do. Can you give me some time?" Let it go, then I will come back to you, chat with you every day, and cook chicken for you to eat, okay?"
"Hey, I said you little brat is so funny. These feet grow on you and on me. You can leave at any time if you want. The premise is that you have the ability to leave."
"Isn't this inconsistent? You said that my feet are on me and I can leave whenever I want. You also said that it depends on whether I have the ability. I feel like you are making things difficult for me, uncle."
"Is it a contradiction? Everyone who wants to succeed will have to solve some difficulties and obstacles. If you want to make money, you must work. If you want to be the top scorer, you must study hard for ten years. If you want to catch up, The girl you like must put in time and energy. The final result is either success or failure."
At this point, the crazy old man turned around and said with a smile: "But as a human being, how can you guess whether the result will be good or bad, and whether it will be what you expected?" The crazy old man pointed to his heart. Ruoran said: "No matter what the result is, no matter whether the process is happy or painful, difficult or easy, ask yourself if you want to do it."
Chen Hongjing also smiled at the crazy old man and said, "You said so much just because you want me to try to knock you down, and then let me walk out swaggering. You know that I am not your opponent."
The crazy old man quickly waved his hand and said with an embarrassed face: "Hey, hey, what are you telling the truth? What I think is my business, and what you think is your business. I don't think you are my opponent. , but how do I know what you think? Maybe you think that I am not your opponent at all? "
Chen Hongjing will no longer be entangled with this crazy old man. If he continues to be entangled like this, he will probably go crazy.
"If you don't take action, then I will." The crazy old man stood up, preparing to go crazy again. He appeared in front of Chen Hongjing in an instant, punched him into the wall, and then let him fall down.
Damn it, Chen Hongjing stood up holding the wound. He finally understood what the fat man said about the feeling of feeling dizzy but unable to pass out and about to be beaten again. It hurt. It really hurt.
Chen Hongjing endured the pain and ran towards the crazy old man, just punching him. The crazy old man caught the punch easily, picked up Chen Hongjing and threw him against the wall.
With a "bang", Chen Hongjing fell off the wall again. Regardless of the pain on his body, he combined his fingers and stabbed the crazy old man straight. The crazy old man stood still as usual, and with a shout, a burst of energy came from the crazy old man. , shook out, trying to knock Chen Hongjing away.
How could I have imagined that this time, Chen Hongjing did not take a step back, and continued to lean on the crazy old man against the infuriating energy. The crazy old man laughed mockingly, waved his right hand, interrupted Chen Hongjing's thrust, and kicked Chen Hongjing with an uppercut kick with his left foot. This time, he kicked Chen Hongjing directly to the top of the cave. With a "boom", he fell into the vat.
"Hmph, brat, you still want to leave here? Let's practice for another hundred years." The crazy old man stretched his waist. After exercising, his stomach always gets very hungry. It's time for the little brat to start. Cooking. Just as he was about to speak out, he was suddenly stunned and looked at the large tank on the side.
Hey, that's right, that little brat was knocked unconscious by him. Do you want to wake him up again? Go ahead, it seems immoral. If you don't scream, you'll be hungry again. How about barking? Why don't you call? How about barking? Still not barking...

Fan Xiaoxi brought Tang Turing to his mansion to heal Luo Fuhe. There was no rush in developing the elixir. Luo Fuhe could only be temporarily given the elixir that he had been prescribed in the past. Half an hour after taking the elixir, Luo Fuhe could be given acupuncture.
"I say, Mr. Tang, are you really not going to persuade that senior to bring Chen Hongjing back? This is already the fifth day. Are you sure that senior will not do this to Chen Hongjing?" Fan Xiaoxi did. A gesture of wiping the neck.
Tang Turing waved his hand and said with a smile: "You can rest assured about this. Although I don't know why senior took Hongjing away. But it can't be just to harm Hongjing. There are seniors over there. Look, you, just go to the alchemy room often, chat with Master Liao, and learn more about how to make alchemy. Try your best to develop the elixir you prepared for Luo Fuhe."
"However, when it comes to alchemy, among your dormitories, Gao Zhuli is still more capable. You and Hongjing will continue to work hard."
"That's natural, that's natural. Live until you are old and learn as you grow old." Fan Xiaoxi said with a smile.
When the time came, Tang Turing took out a large pack of silver needles and spread them out on the table. There were seventy-two silver needles in one pack, each of which was different in size and thickness. Tang Turing quickly moved his skills and hit Luo Fuhe's back with both hands, causing the blood in his back to circulate faster and the meridians to be seen more clearly.
Tang Turing put his left hand against Luo Fuhe's back, turned his right hand into a palm, and sent a stream of true energy into the silver needle. With a slap on the table, three silver needles flew out of the bag and floated in the air.
"go!"
The three silver needles automatically entered Luo Fuhe's body. At this time, Tang Turing turned his left hand into his palm and continued to draw out the true energy from the three silver needles. The zhenqi in each silver needle must be controlled. It cannot be too much or too little. Too much or too little will directly kill Luo Fuhe's life.
Tang Turing closed his eyes and controlled the infuriating energy of the three silver needles with his left hand. At the same time, he checked which part of Luo Fuhe's body the infuriating energy was flowing to. When the trace of true energy passed the position of the three silver needles, Tang Turing used force to blend the true energy from one of the silver needles into the trace of true energy. In fact, it was a very small amount, but Luo Fuhe still trembled all over.
Fan Xiao watched with horror, while checking the zhen qi in the body, and while doing acupuncture, he sent the zhen qi from the silver needle into the zhen qi in the body to integrate it. With such multitasking, no one who has practiced acupuncture for more than ten or twenty years would dare to try it.
The Qi in the first three silver needles is easier to integrate into the body. But among the three silver needles from the seventh to the ninth, it is much more difficult to operate. When the zhenqi in the body comes into contact with the zhenqi of the outside world, it is like a new person coming to the place where the old people live. The new people want to blend in, but the old people don't let them. They are very afraid, fearing that they will take away their status. A conflict between Zhenqi was formed.
"Fan Xiaoxi, hurry up, go to the front and do some exercises for Luo Fuhe, so that when the two strands of true energy are completely integrated, you can protect all the meridians." Tang Turing said.
Fan Xiaoxi immediately sat down, turned his hands into palms, and hit Luo Fuhe's chest. If any meridians were injured due to the chaotic flow of the real energy, Fan Xiaoxi would immediately recover that meridians.
Fan Xiaoxi watched Lao Luo's face getting paler and paler, and felt very uncomfortable, but now he could only pray that the two qi could merge into one as soon as possible, so that Lao Luo could survive the first level.
Unfortunately, the old zhenqi did not accept the new zhenqi, and the one zhenqi split into two zhenqi. Now there are two zhenqi jumping up and down in Lao Luo's body. Tang Turing forcibly pulled out the six silver needles and replaced them with three silver needles that had no real energy.
Tang Turing slapped the table, and three new silver needles flew out of the bag and flew to Fan Xiaoxi's eyes.
"As long as you hear me asking you to pierce the silver needle into Luo Fuhe's heart, don't hesitate and do it immediately, do you understand?" Tang Turing said loudly.
"Understood!" Fan Xiaoxi didn't hesitate at all. The silver needle was inserted into the heart. There was a 70% chance that the patient would end up with serious root causes of the disease. Moreover, Lao Luo's physical condition is so bad at this time. If the root of the disease is left again, Lao Luo will undoubtedly die directly.
But at this time, the two of them had no other choice. If they hesitated even one step, Luo Fuhe would die immediately in front of them.
"Now, hurry up!"
Fan Xiaoxi grabbed the three silver needles hanging in the air and plunged them into Lao Luo's heart without hesitation. The two of them finished their work at the same time. Luo Fuhe vomited a mouthful of blood and fell down.
Tang Turing immediately helped Luo Fuhe up and felt his pulse. He still had breath, but it was very weak. Tang Turing shook his head and pulled out the remaining silver needles.
"After what we did, it is estimated that Lao Luo's physical condition will not be able to receive acupuncture in the next period of time. I don't know if his life can last until the next acupuncture." Tang Turing sighed.
Fan Xiaoxi poured a cup of tea, handed it to Tang Turing, and said: "Mr. Tang, thank you for your hard work. Let's drink a cup of tea first and wipe away the sweat. We have tried our best today. As for whether we can save Lao Luo's life , it depends on fate.”
Tang Turing nodded, looked at Luo Fuhe, and could only do this.

When Chen Hongjing woke up, he found that he was not soaking in the vat this time, nor was he hanging above the vat. Instead, he was next to the crazy old man, watching him roast chicken. The only thing that remained unchanged was that he was still tied up.
The crazy old man glanced at Chen Hongjing, who was sitting up next to him, and said with a smile: "Hey, little bastard, are you awake? You are lucky enough to try my craft today."
Chen Hongjing looked at the roasted chicken in front of him. How long had the old man roasted the chicken? More than half of it was burnt. Can it still be eaten?
The crazy old man cut off the rope on Chen Hongjing's body with a swipe of his fingers, then gave half of the roasted chicken to Chen Hongjing, and said grandly: "You're welcome, eat."
Chen Hongjing took the roasted chicken and swallowed it. The crazy old man looked at him now. He would die if he ate it, or he would die if he didn't eat it. He might as well eat it. After all, this was the first time the old man made it. Not eating, as if he didn't respect others, Chen Hongjing smiled awkwardly, took a big bite of the roast chicken, chewed it for a few bites, and immediately swallowed it, giving thumbs up to the crazy old man...
"Little bastard, have you ever thought about your future path? Should you take the path of the people on the mountain, or the path of the people at the bottom of the mountain?" the crazy old man asked with a smile.
It was the first time I saw a crazy old man sitting next to me so calmly, chatting with me. Chen Hongjing shook his head and said with a smile: "I didn't think about it. My original wish was very small. I just want to be a mountaineer, open a few inns, marry a wife, have children, raise children, and live a normal life with my family." That’s it.”
"But, life is often different from what I imagined, and it always disrupts my rhythm. When I wake up, my godfather and stepmother are gone. When I wake up, my brother is picked up. When I wake up, my brother at home is gone. The old man was also taken away, and I was the only one left in Nuo Da's house. The only purpose now is to come here to learn some skills, and then to find my brother. After finding my brother, we will go to the old man together. .”
"Well, that's all I can think of at the moment." However, having said that, it has been more than half a year since the old man was arrested and he came to Licorice Hall. However, during this period of time, I also got to know many people, and I did not feel that my life was going by in vain. Every day was unique and had memorable moments.
The crazy old man nodded and said: "Well, that's fine. Like I said just now, just follow your heart. No matter how God disrupts or destroys your path, if you still want to go, just fix it yourself. .Who cares."
Chen Hongjing was a little surprised, because in the past few days, the crazy old man's behavior was obviously to shape his physique, exercise his body, and want him to become a mountain man. Now that I say these words, it is really unpredictable.
I saw the old man put his fingers together and scratched Chen Hongjing's calf. The charm on Chen Hongjing's leg appeared and then disappeared. He jumped slightly and felt his legs feel much lighter.
"You can leave at any time now." the crazy old man said.
Chen Hongjing didn't believe it. What on earth did the old man want to do? However, he has already allowed himself to leave, why don’t he still leave? Chen Hongjing immediately ran out, but before he could get out a few steps, he ran back to the crazy old man.
"What's wrong? You want to stay with me again?"
Chen Hongjing shook his head: "I just want to come back and ask, uncle, what is your name?"
"Hahaha, my surname is Yong. How are you? Can you go?"
Chen Hongjing nodded: "Goodbye, Grandpa Yong. See you tomorrow, Grandpa Yong." After saying that, Chen Hongjing immediately ran down the mountain, fearing that if he stayed for a moment longer, the old man would change his mind.
The crazy old man looked at the little bastard's back, I think you really can't follow your own path, but since you can't change your path, then change your state of mind. Change your state of mind and take a path you don't like. Maybe this way you will live a happier life.
