The cement road in the town was still a little muddy due to the drizzle last night.
The two of them walked in tandem without saying a word.
Gu Chen was reluctant and wanted to run away directly.
"Here we are!"
He was thinking about what to do next when he was suddenly awakened by Hua Yao's voice.
I looked around and saw that there were so many people here. We were still in a town.
"Let's go, why are you standing there in a daze!"
Gu Chen looked up and was speechless.
It turns out that Xiao Shulin is just the name of a kebab shop. It seems that I misunderstood it for a long time.
I say that I often come to Jinyang Town, why didn’t I know that there was a new grove on this street?
"Haha, you don't really think I want to take you to the woods!"
Hua Yao guessed what he was thinking and didn't mind teasing him.
"How is that possible? I know this store, which sells kebabs!"
He kept telling lies, but his eyes did not dodge when he stared at Hua Yao, his face did not turn red, and his heart did not beat, just as he was supposed to do.
"Come on, I know what's delicious. I'll get more later."
Hua Yao said, directly reaching out to pull his sleeve and gently pulled it in.
"Grandpa, your grandson called you again. Grandpa, you..."
"Excuse me, let me take a call."
At this moment, Gu Chen's phone suddenly rang.
"Hey... um... ok, I'll be right back!"
"Sorry, I may not be able to have dinner with you today. I'll treat you to another day."
Gu Chen ran away without saying a word, not forgetting to turn around and wave goodbye.
Hua Yao looked at his retreating back, sighed deeply, and walked in the opposite direction alone with a slightly disappointed look.
Being alone and desolate still makes me happy, self-controlling the sadness of separation (there should be BGM here)
………
………
Gu Chen ran all the way and soon arrived in front of his house after turning a corner.
The road to my home is not wide, but a luxury car that doesn't look very luxurious is parked at the moment.
The car logo at the rear is an overlapping V and W, with a row of letters underneath.
Gu Chen walked curiously and looked around, but saw no one in the car.
"It can't be Mr. Wu who's here."
Gu Chen suddenly remembered that they just talked on the phone this morning, and the old man asked him to wait. His mother also called just now to say that a friend was looking for him.
"Mom, I'm back."
Gu Chen shouted and strode into the yard.
Through the open door, he clearly saw two men and one woman sitting on the sofa. Who was it if it wasn't Wu Yong?
When the three people in the room heard his voice, they stood up instantly and rushed towards him quickly.
"Senior, we are finally waiting for you."
Wu Yong burst into tears, as excited as his daughter-in-law when she saw her patron.
"Old man, don't get excited. If you have anything to say, go in and say it."
Gu Chen took a step back and avoided Mr. Wu's hand.
"It's me, Meng Lang. I hope you can forgive me, senior." Wu Yong took the initiative to apologize, still wearing Jingwu uniform today.
"Son, are they your friends?"
Chen Guilan was confused. The man in front of him was old enough to be his father. How could he call his son a senior?
"Mom, he is my former patient, we know each other."
Gu Chen explained in a hurry, but his heart was trembling: "Mom, you dare to invite me to my house even if you don't know me, so don't be so big-hearted, okay?"
"Haha, yes, I am a patient of Teacher Gu. I came here today to find out something from Teacher Gu. Please forgive me for disturbing my wife."
Gu Chen stared at Wu Yong. This old man was very discerning.
"Is that so? Then you guys have a good chat and I'll go out and buy some food."
"Madam, no need, we will leave as soon as we finish talking." Wu Yong said to stop her.
Mom hesitated for a moment, but did not refuse. She said she was going out to play with the aunts, and gave the space to Gu Chen and the others.
"Teacher Gu, have you really developed your Qi?"
On the sofa in the living room, Wu Yong couldn't help but ask. He was extremely excited along the way.
"probably."
Gu Chen wasn't sure. After all, this thing was too mysterious. It was just a matter of anger.
Otherwise, people will come all the way and it will turn out to be false, and your image will be completely ruined.
Wu Gang sat quietly aside, not paying attention.
Angry is what you say it is, but you can't touch it, so who knows if it's true or false.
"Teacher Gu, tell me quickly, tell me what this anger feels like?" Wu Yong asked repeatedly.
"Don't worry, old man. I'm actually not sure. Please tell me what Qi is first."
Wu Gang listened to the conversation between the two and became even more dismissive, looking at Gu Chen like a street liar.
Although Gu Chen did have two brushes and reached the realm of Ming.
But can Qi be practiced?
Although he didn't like Gu Wu, he still got to know him a lot under the influence of his family.
Wu Gang's expression was clearly visible to Gu Chen across from him, but he was not displeased.
Believe it or not, it's none of your business.
If there is a stalemate over this matter, it will only increase the worries.
At this moment, Mr. Wu began to speak slowly: "Teacher Zhou, the Qi you are talking about is called Jin Qi in our ancient martial arts world."
"Energy?"
Gu Chen was curious and heard a new term.
Wu Yong nodded and continued: "Yes, strength is an invisible force. It is the inner strength that warriors obtain through training and exercise, rather than the kind of strength that is exerted through skills and brute force."
"Is this strength intangible?" Gu Chen asked, expressing his doubts.
If that's the case, then what's going on with the power in his body? He can obviously feel it.
"I don't know. Logically speaking, it is not any kind of physical force and should not be touched." Wu Yong shook his head and explained.
"So that's it?"
Gu Chen thought for a moment and said seriously: "Old man, please continue."
"Yeah!" Wu Yong nodded and continued speaking slowly.
"Jiu Qi is not a physical force, but a spiritual and psychological force. This requires the warrior to obtain it through practice and accumulation."
Gu Chen listened carefully, but Wu Gang started playing with his mobile phone.
“There are two main sources of energy.”
Wu Yong made a two sign on his hand.
Gu Chen: "Which two?"
"First, warriors improve their physical fitness and strength through their own exercise and cultivation, which includes exercising their muscles, internal organs, bones, etc. When reaching a limit, strength will naturally be generated in the body."
Gu Chen nodded. He had been exercising himself. Could it have something to do with this?
After thinking about it again, it felt unreliable. There are so many talented athletes in the world, many of whom are stronger than me. Why haven't they developed their energy?
"What about the other one?"
Wu Yong's expression was still serious, which was the correct attitude towards things.
“The other is spiritual cultivation, which also includes state of mind and will.
Warriors can improve their mental strength by adjusting their state of mind and cultivating their will. "
"Spiritual? Does surviving a desperate situation count?"
Gu Chen thought about his experience in the past few months, which can be described as ups and downs, a mixture of sadness and joy.
"Could the panel be the product of his own spirit?" Gu Chen was startled, feeling that it was a bit close to the truth.
Mr. Wu didn't know what Gu Chen was thinking, so he continued to explain:
"When a warrior reaches a certain level of cultivation, he can perfectly combine inner strength with outer skills.
At this time, he can emit powerful energy from within his body, which also shows an extremely superb level of martial arts, which is the ultimate secret pursued by all ancient warriors. "
Before Gu Chen could speak, the old man sighed again: "It's a pity that no one can reach it even in their lifetime.
Over time, this power became a legend, and no one has ever seen its true appearance. "
When Gu Chen heard this, he suddenly smiled and said:
"Mr. Wu, I can let you feel the strength."
