"Save the Qi family...?"
Luo Ruying asked doubtfully.
"Yes…"
"Actually, the Qi family is about to be removed from the Nancheng capital..."
Qi Yuan lowered her eyebrows and said with a gloomy expression:
"In a few days, there will be a chamber of commerce competition between the Qi family and the Jiang family."
"The Chamber of Commerce Competition will determine the ownership of the major street chambers of commerce in Nanli City."
"In the past, the Qi family and the Jiang family each occupied 50% of the street chambers of commerce in the city. However, in recent years, the Jiang family, relying on the power behind them, has begun to expand and forcibly occupied my Qi family's various industries!"
"Today, less than 30% of the street chambers of commerce remain under the jurisdiction of my Qi family..."
"How do you want me to save the Qi family?"
Luo Ruying asked.
"I would like to ask Sister Luo to represent my Qi family in the Chamber of Commerce Competition!"
Qi Yuan pleaded solemnly.
Conflicts and conflicts often occur between chambers of commerce. Once the conflicts expand, it can easily lead to rivers of blood and even massacres!
As a result, subsequent chambers of commerce agreed on a new solution to resolve conflicts.
That is the Chamber of Commerce Competition!
If an irreconcilable conflict arises between two chambers of commerce, one party may choose to initiate a chamber of commerce competition with the other party.
The two chambers of commerce made their own bets and each invited a monk representing their own chamber of commerce to participate in the competition.
The losing party must cash in the bet to the winning party.
This kind of competition can greatly avoid the situation where chambers of commerce secretly fight each other due to conflicts.
This plan was proposed by a group called Jumbo Business Alliance.
The Treasure Merchant Alliance is a business alliance formed by the gathering of countless chambers of commerce in the world.
It is nominally for the mutual development of business alliances, but it is also responsible for mediating conflicts between chambers of commerce and maintaining the stability of business alliances.
In order to ensure the fairness of the competition, when two chambers of commerce initiate a chamber of commerce competition, people from the Treasure Chamber of Commerce will usually be present to testify.
This chamber of commerce competition was proposed to the Jiang family by the Qi family.
After years of oppression, the Qi family finally decided to risk everything and challenge the Jiang family to a chamber of commerce competition, hoping to take back everything they had.
However, the monks who originally agreed to fight for the Qi family either suddenly refused or died in various accidents...
After seeing Luo Ruying's powerful strength, Qi Yuan had the intention to entrust Luo Ruying.
In fact, she didn't want to drag Luo Ruying into the dispute between the Qi family and the Jiang family. After all, there was another force behind the Jiang family.
But she had no choice but to ask Luo Ruying for help.
"Okay, I can help you fight on behalf of the Qi family."
Luo Ruying thought for a moment, and finally nodded lightly and agreed.
On the one hand, it was as a thank you for taking over the house, and on the other hand, she felt that if people like Jiang Li of the Jiang family were allowed to continue to gain power in the city, the city might not be able to live a stable and happy life.
That's why she was willing to help Qi Yuan get through this difficult time.
"Great! Thank you Sister Luo!"
Qi Yuan bowed and expressed gratitude, and the weight in his heart became much lighter.
"You are Welcome."
"I just regard it as a reward for taking over this mansion."
Luo Ruying shook her head and said.
"Sister Luo! I have another request for you!"
"Can you accept me as your apprentice?"
"I can pay you extra!"
Qi Yuan looked confused for a moment, but still said to Luo Ruying expectantly.
After seeing Luo Ruying's gorgeous and graceful figure for the first time, she was deeply attracted.
Although her family has been in business for generations, she has always had a dream in her heart to practice Taoism!
Luo Ruying didn't expect Qi Yuan to want to become her teacher. After looking at her in surprise, she shook her head slightly apologetically.
"Sorry, I don't intend to take on a disciple."
She chose to live here temporarily just to live a stable life, so she had no intention of taking on a disciple or anything.
Besides, she was still being hunted, so she didn't want to involve other people.
"Okay, sorry to bother Sister Luo..."
After being rejected, Qi Yuan looked very disappointed.
Since she was a child, she has sought out many monks to practice under her tutelage, but was rejected without exception.
The reason is that she was injured when she was young, and the old injuries remain in her body. Her meridians are damaged and blocked, making it impossible for her to practice effectively.
Qi Yuan felt that Luo Ruying must have seen the problem with her and felt that she must be unable to practice and lacked talent, so she rejected her...
"Sister Luo, if a person's meridians are damaged, does that mean that person will have no hope of practicing cultivation for the rest of his life?"
Qi Yuan looked up at Luo Ruying reluctantly and asked.
Luo Ruying could see who the man was referring to from Qi Yuan's expression. Although she couldn't bear it, she still answered seriously:
"Meridians are the spiritual path where monks absorb and transfer the spirits of the body and the world. They are the basis of monks' practice."
"If you can't absorb the spirit of heaven and earth, and if you can't circulate your spiritual power, you can't truly practice."
"It can be said that the meridians throughout a person's body are equivalent to the paths to becoming an immortal."
"The more dense and spacious your meridians are, and the smoother they are, the further your spiritual path will go."
"Really... Sure enough, I probably have no chance to practice cultivation in this life..."
When Qi Yuan heard this, his expression became more and more sad.
In fact, she was not too surprised.
Because she already knew this statement, she just asked it again to make herself give up completely.
"Sister Luo, I'll take my leave now..."
Just as Qi Yuan was about to turn around and leave, Ning Yechen's chuckle sounded from behind:
“Of course it’s impossible to practice cultivation if the meridians are damaged, but wouldn’t it be fine as long as the meridians in the body are restored?”
As soon as these words came out, Qi Yuan froze on the spot, turned around and looked at Ning Yechen in surprise.
Of course she understands this.
But how many people in the world can restore meridians?
She had never even heard of anyone who could restore damaged meridians!
And listening to Ning Yechen's words, it seems that he has a way to restore her meridians!
"Brother Ning, can you... help me restore the damaged meridians in my body?"
Qi Yuan couldn't help but ignite hope in her heart, and looked at Ning Yechen expectantly.
"I understand a little bit~"
Ning Yechen said modestly with his head held high.
Luo Ruying on the side also looked at Ning Yechen in surprise.
It turns out that he also has medical skills and can heal damaged meridians?
This is an incredible ability!
If she had cultivated as an empress, she could easily heal Qi Yuan's old meridians, but now she has no way.
But as a mortal, he seems to have a solution? !
But thinking back carefully, it doesn't seem strange that Ning Yechen would make medicinal porridge and a very effective healing medicinal soup when she was injured.
Maybe he really knows something about medicine...?
"Brother Ning, tell me what to do quickly?"
"Do I need to prepare any medicinal ingredients?"
Qi Yuan couldn't wait to get closer to Ning Yechen and asked eagerly.
She had never been so excited!
Ning Yechen smiled and shook his head and said:
"You don't need to prepare anything."
"Just come inside with me and take off your clothes."
"I'll put a few needles in for you~"
