The two jailers and the two criminal investigators locked the tiger spirit in the iron bed made of fine steel with great familiarity, then exited without saying a word and closed the door again.
Mr. Zheng glanced at the expectant look in Li Qingfeng's eyes, and said with a hint of seriousness: "If you have any other requests, just make them now! Don't wait until the critical moment to raise the price with labor and management!"
Li Qingfeng: "Mr. Zheng! Can you provide me with a set of soundproofing mechanisms in the Zuo Department for my dormitory?"
Mr. Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly. Did he need the soundproofing mechanism because he was afraid of being eavesdropped?
Are you afraid of eavesdropping because you might accidentally say something treasonous?
But Mr. Zheng didn't say much, he just nodded: "Okay!"
Li Qingfeng asked again: "Which part of the tiger spirit was refined by Mr. Zheng? What is its magical power?"
Mr. Zheng said: "Tongue."
"After refining, his magical powers have emerged. As long as the beast uses his demon power to activate his tongue, he can open a strange space and put objects and souls into it. If souls are put into it, he can directly enslave those souls."
"But this space shouldn't be very big, about three feet square..."
Hearing this, Li Qingfeng's eyes suddenly lit up.
Three feet square?
It can also contain objects... isn't this a magical power similar to the universe in one's sleeves?
Can you even put your soul into it? So as to enslave the soul within it... Wait, isn't this just a ghost?
The evil spirit who works for the tiger!
This is really a must-have for home travel and house robbery!
Mr. Zheng then said: "If this tiger spirit's tongue can be removed perfectly, the price offered by Guanxing Pavilion is 30,000 taels plus a black iron sword engraved with seven-star restrictions."
"As promised before, I will give you ten thousand taels of silver and fifty-fifty points, and then I will give you the knife. How about that?"
Hearing this, Li Qingfeng nodded in surprise.
He had long realized that the standard long sword issued by the Guards Department could hardly match the [Shadow Jue] that he had now promoted to the second level.
Even if the force is too strong, the standard long sword can be broken by Sha Dao Jue first.
"Shall we start then?"
The subtext is that your kid has no other requirements, right?
Li Qingfeng nodded and stepped forward directly. Focusing on his internal energy, he poured three rays of Zhenqi into the surface of the Taiyin and Lung Meridians of the tiger's hand, directly suppressing the flow of the tiger spirit's demonic power.
Mr. Zheng took the knife and began to dissect, and the Taiyin and Lung Meridians of the tiger's hand were also revealed with each cut.
Although there are still some changes in shape, the general direction is exactly the same, from the Zhongfu point on the edge of the first rib to the Shaoshang point on the inner edge of the thumb nail.
Li Qingfeng asked doubtfully: "Mr. Zheng, since our main purpose is only to remove the refined parts of the monster, why do we need to dissect it in such a complicated way one by one?"
Mr. Zheng chuckled: "Because we want to pursue the truth!"
Li Qingfeng: "What truth?"
While Mr. Zheng was carefully dissecting the tiger spirit, he said softly: "To know what is happening, you must also know the truth about why it is happening!"
"Let's put it this way, the reason why Guanxing Pavilion and Tianshu Pavilion want the refined parts of this monster is not only because they are studying whether they can use the forbidden formation to make the refined parts of these monsters into special weapons, but also because they want to study and understand the monster. How on earth can one part of the body be refined to produce supernatural powers?"
"If you can know the specific method of how a monster refines its body parts to derive magical powers, that is, you know the 'why'. In time, maybe everyone in our race can also use this method to develop magical powers that are unique to humans."
"But this kind of research has been going on for many years. Someone may have even done this research during the reign of the previous dynasty thousands of years ago... but in the end nothing can be researched."
"I thought of finding a new way, putting aside the research on the refined parts, directly dissecting the monster completely, and starting to study its most fundamental meridians!"
"Perhaps the refined part attached to the monster's magical power, or even the practice of the monster refining a certain part with its magical power, is just the result, not the cause."
Li Qingfeng suddenly realized: "Old Zheng, do you think the key to this 'why' is the monster's meridians?"
While saying this, Li Qingfeng's own guess emerged in his heart.
The bat spirit refines the ears, while the tiger spirit refines the tongue... Is it possible that the 'why' of the supernatural powers cultivated by monsters is still inseparable from the traditional Chinese medicine system in previous lives?
Li Qingfeng clearly remembered that Chinese medicine in previous lives had the viscera theory that the kidneys open to the ears, the heart opens to the tongue, the liver opens to the eyes, the lungs open to the nose, and the spleen opens to the lips.
At the same time, the twelve main meridians are named after the five internal organs, such as the Heart Meridian of Hand Shaoyin, the Lung Meridian of Hand Taiyin, the Stomach Meridian of Foot Yangming, the Liver Meridian of Foot Jueyin, the Spleen Meridian of Foot Taiyin, etc...
It was also at this time that Li Qingfeng suddenly felt a different feeling coming from his kidneys.
It's as if there is a very strange and vigorous energy in the kidneys...
"The kidneys open up the ears..."
"Is this really the case?"
"I got the [Echo-Searching] magical power that I only had after refining the ears of bats, but this [supernatural power] is actually just an appearance. Is there some kind of change in the kidneys?
Such changes occurred in the internal organs... and thus the emergence of supernatural powers?
"Little needle knife!"
Hearing Mr. Zheng's voice, Li Qingfeng quickly gathered his thoughts and handed the small needle knife to Mr. Zheng.
He watched Mr. Zheng's flowing movements while holding the small needle knife. While carefully observing the meridians of the tiger spirit, Li Qingfeng asked: "Mr. Zheng's smooth and flowing knife skills. Although it is only a small needle knife for dissection, but It’s evident.”
"Mr. Zheng was once a top swordsman?"
Mr. Zheng paused slightly: "Don't ask about other people's past. This is taboo."
The dissection continues,
Time passes quickly,
The twelve main meridians and the eight extraordinary meridians of the Chong, Dai and Ren meridians have been fully demonstrated.
Just when Mr. Zheng was about to dissect the Yangwei pulse,
There was a sudden click in the empty space where the small needle knife passed.
Then, black demonic energy spurted out from it.
Mr. Zheng's expression suddenly changed: "There are obviously no meridians here! How could the evil spirit leak out?"
"Quick! Force all the remaining demon power onto its tongue!"
"hurry up!"
Li Qingfeng's expression was serious. When he mobilized four strands of Mortal Realm's true energy again and poured them into the tiger spirit's meridians, all the remaining demonic power in the tiger spirit's body was forced to his tongue in an instant.
But during this process, it seemed that because Li Qingfeng's soul was greatly enhanced, he clearly felt that the moment all the demonic power was forced into the tiger spirit's tongue, the tiger spirit's heart suddenly felt a strange twitching sensation. …
Illusion?
Or is the viscera and meridian theory correct?
The root of the tiger spirit's magical power actually lies in its heart?
It was also at this time,
Old Zheng raised his knife and cut off a long tiger tongue covered with barbs.
The length of this tongue was no less than two feet. It was originally something that would make people sick when they saw it, but at this moment, the tongue was shining with a faint red light, and its texture became like jade.
"Success!"
"It worked again!"
"Good boy!"
Mr. Zheng roared excitedly and slapped Li Qingfeng hard on the shoulder.
"Why don't you just stay with me? If I die in the future, the inheritance will be yours. What do you think?"
Li Qingfeng touched his nose: "Do you want to be my father?"
"Want to defraud your employer to support you in your retirement?"
