Luo Qingzhou was shocked.
He wanted to put down the bronze mirror in his hand, but for some reason, at this moment, he suddenly felt as if his body was frozen, unable to move.
At the same time, he felt weak all over, and his body was light and swaying, like a puff of smoke about to rise from the ground.
Unable to control his body, he opened his eyes wide and looked at his distorted face in the mirror, and found that the face also began to float upward like smoke.
At the same time, a biting chill came!
"Master! Master! There are many lanterns hanging in Tingyu Garden on a moonlit night. Sister Qiu'er and the others said that the second young lady has already gone out. When should we go?"
At this moment, Xiaodie ran into the courtyard with excitement on her face.
Luo Qingzhou's body trembled and he suddenly woke up.
Staring in the mirror again, his face did not change at all except for the dark light and gloomy atmosphere.
He gently shook the bronze mirror in his hand, then looked down at his body, and there was nothing unusual.
Everything just seemed to be just an illusion.
but……
Is it an illusion?
He knew clearly that it was not an illusion.
My back was dripping with cold sweat, and my heart was still beating rapidly.
what is going on?
Although the scene just now was terrifying, he vaguely felt that he had entered a very mysterious and strange state.
But what exactly it was, he couldn't tell clearly.
He took a few deep breaths and calmed down his emotions a little. Fang put the bronze mirror on the desk and turned to look at Xiaodie in the courtyard.
Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head!
His face turned pale, his body softened, and he suddenly fell to the ground.
A splitting headache!
"Master!"
When Xiaodie saw him outside, her expression suddenly changed, she exclaimed, ran in, hurriedly helped him up from the ground, and said in a crying tone: "Master, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"
Luo Qingzhou covered his head with pain on his face, gritting his teeth to prevent himself from making any sound.
His whole head seemed to be split open, his whole body was shaking with pain, his face was pale, and he was dripping with cold sweat.
"Master, don't scare me... I'll go find the doctor right away! Master, just wait! Don't let anything happen to you... Wuwu..."
Xiaodie was so frightened that her mind went blank for a while, then she hurriedly put him on the chair in front of the desk and ran out crying.
Luo Qingzhou climbed on the desk, trembling with pain and almost fainting.
After a few minutes, the severe pain subsided slightly.
Thinking that many people might be coming soon, he immediately stood up with support on the desk, put away the bronze mirror, trudged over and hid it under the bed.
Then he got into bed and lay down on the bed.
The pain still persists.
But compared to the severe pain before, it was already within the bearable range.
Although I was shocked and puzzled, I didn't dare to spend too much brain power thinking about it at this time.
He closed his eyes and calmed himself.
Not long after.
There were rapid footsteps outside.
Xiaodie hurried into the house with the doctor.
Bai Ling and Zhu'er, the maid next to Miss Qin, also followed in.
Originally, they were planning to come over and call Luo Qingzhou to the Moonlight Listening to the Rain Garden.
At this time, Madam and Miss Qin had already gone out.
The doctor is a gray-haired old man in his fifties, surnamed Sun. He is the dedicated doctor of the Qin Mansion. He happened to be in the manor today, so he came very quickly.
"Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
As soon as he entered the room, Bai Ling asked with a frown on his face, a worried look on his face.
Luo Qingzhou covered his head that was throbbing with pain and said with a trembling voice, "Headache..."
Xiaodie hurriedly moved a stool and lit oil lamps and candles.
The dark room suddenly became brighter.
Doctor Sun sat down by the bed, took a look at his pale face, then stretched out his hand to feel his pulse. While listening, he asked: "Is it just that you have a headache? Are you feeling uncomfortable elsewhere?"
Luo Qingzhou's face turned pale and he struggled to answer: "It's just a headache... It feels like it's split."
Dr. Sun squinted his eyes and checked his pulse for a while, then asked: "You didn't have this kind of problem before, right?"
Xiaodie on the side turned pale with fright, and quickly answered helpfully: "No, my young master's health has always been very good before."
Dr. Sun nodded slightly, then stood up, pressed his forehead, top of head, temples and other places with his fingers, and said, "If it hurts where I pressed, just tell me."
Luo Qingzhou didn't say a word.
Doctor Sun pressed his neck again and asked, "Where is this place?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "It doesn't hurt."
Dr. Sun stretched out his hand to open his eyelids and looked at him again, and then asked: "Did you sleep with the lady or the maid last night?"
Xiaodie hurriedly answered timidly: "No, no."
Doctor Sun asked again: "What about during the day?"
Xiaodie said shyly: "No..."
Dr. Sun nodded and said no more. He turned around, took out a pen and paper from his bag, walked to the desk, and prepared to write a prescription.
Bai Ling asked quickly: "Doctor Sun, is my uncle okay? What's the disease?"
While writing, Dr. Sun said, "It's okay. It's just that the mental exertion was too much and my brain couldn't bear it, so I suddenly had a headache. I'll prescribe some medicine and let my uncle rest for a few days to recuperate. Then he should be fine."
"Too much energy consumption?"
Bai Ling was stunned for a moment and asked, "Doctor Sun, do you know the reason?"
Dr. Sun said: "If it's not due to staying up late, it's because you did some work that consumed your physical strength and energy during the day, or it's because you haven't had a good rest recently and read every day, or it may be because you often think wildly. There are many reasons, old age I can’t even tell.”
Bai Ling nodded slightly and looked towards the bed.
Luo Qingzhou rubbed his head: "It must be because of reading. I have been reading in the house these past few days. My second brother sent me a lot of good books. I can't stop reading."
Bai Ling looked at the bookshelf in the corner and the stacked books on the desk, and couldn't help but blame: "Uncle, even if you are preparing for the exam, you can't force yourself like this. Your body is already weak, and you don't know how to cherish it. If you read in the house every day, you will definitely get sick from reading.”
Dr. Sun wrote the prescription and handed it to Bai Ling next to him. He also looked at the bed and said, "Studying hard is a good thing, but everything must be done in a measured way. Health is the most important thing. I need to go out and walk around frequently to exercise." If you stay indoors all the time, your body will be weak and you will definitely get sick often."
Luo Qingzhou thanked him tremblingly on the bed: "Thank you very much, doctor."
Bai Ling handed the prescription to the maid behind him and asked him and the doctor to go to the pharmacy to get the medicine.
Pearl also followed out and said: "Then slave girl, go tell the second lady and the madam that my uncle is ill and cannot go there tonight."
When only Bai Ling and Xiaodie were left in the room, Bai Lingfang walked to the bed and said, "Uncle, you have a good rest. Don't study or go out these days. Recuperate well in the house. Miss, I will Tell her."
Luo Qingzhou felt a stabbing pain in his head again, closed his eyes and said nothing.
Bai Ling didn't dare to say anything more, and said to Xiaodie next to him: "Let's go, close the door, don't disturb my uncle anymore, let him have a good rest."
Xiaodie said "Oh", glanced at her young master worriedly, and followed her out of the room worriedly.
After the door closed, Luo Qingzhou slowly opened his eyes.
"Too much energy consumption?"
At this time, he did feel mentally exhausted and weak.
But it seems to be a moment of time, and it has nothing to do with reading or practicing Qigong.
Just before, he was looking at the bronze mirror in front of the window. After seeing a strange vision in the mirror, he suddenly had a headache and fatigue.
Could it be that mirror that suddenly sucked away all his mental energy?
Mental strength?
His mind moved, and he suddenly remembered something.
I looked out the window and saw no one in the courtyard.
It was quiet outside too.
He immediately endured the pain and got up, pulling out the porcelain bottle filled with ink-black liquid from under the bed.
Every time he uses a drop of the liquid in it, his spirit will become extremely full and sufficient. One drop can last for three days.
He immediately uncorked the bottle and carefully poured a drop onto his fingertips.
As soon as the jet-black liquid landed on his fingertips, it quickly penetrated through the pores on his fingertips and disappeared quickly.
One more drop!
He poured another drop.
After his fingertips absorbed two drops of black liquid, he capped the porcelain bottle again and put it back under the bed.
When he returned to bed and lay down, he was suddenly surprised to find that the tingling pain in his head had begun to ease.
And it’s fast!
The pain that was like a needle prick a moment ago has quickly receded at this moment.
A few minutes later.
There was only some dull pain in my whole head.
A few more minutes passed.
That trace of pain actually disappeared.
This inky black liquid is truly extraordinary.
Luo Qingzhou rubbed all parts of his head and could no longer feel any pain. At the same time, his energy and strength began to recover quickly.
He immediately got up, took out the martial arts stone, held it in his hand, and activated his internal energy.
The surface of the snow-white jade stone immediately lit up, and a few lines of small ink letters appeared.
【Strength: 50】
[Speed: 5]
[Resisting power: 50]
[Mental Power: 1]
Immediately, the above values began to change again.
The strength slowly changed from 50 to 60, 70, 80...
The resistance to blows is also gradually increasing.
Mental strength also changed from 1 to 5.
After a while, the mental power not only returned to the original 10, but also increased a little, finally settling on 11.
That inky black liquid really increases mental power!
However, is it as simple as just increasing mental power?
The dark blue liquid produced by the other mirror is a very magical elixir for martial arts. It can not only help refine skin and flesh, but may even help temper the entire body.
And the inky black liquid produced on the opposite side just increases mental power?
Maybe it's not that simple.
If one can only increase mental power, what qualitative change will there be if the mental power becomes higher and higher?
Luo Qingzhou sat beside the bed, lost in thought.
Suddenly, he thought of a strange book he read this afternoon.
There is a short story recorded above. It is said that in a certain country in ancient times, there was a person who was very energetic and never tired. When he fell asleep one night, he suddenly felt that he was floating up from the bed, and then he saw that his body was still sleeping on the bed. …
Luo Qingzhou was thinking about this story, and suddenly recalled the scene that happened in front of the window.
At that time, he looked at his distorted face in the mirror. He was so frightened that his body suddenly became unable to move. Then he suddenly felt that his whole body was light and airy, as if he was about to lift off the ground, and he in the mirror seemed to be floating as well.
Associating the two, he seemed to vaguely grasp something in his heart.
I haven’t finished reading that book yet!
As soon as his heart moved, he immediately put down the martial arts stone, walked to the desk, and took out the book from the pile of books.
Then he took the oil lamp, sat down in front of the window, opened the book, and read it carefully, word for word.
When he finished reading the short story again and turned to the next page, he saw that it read: "The human spirit comes from the soul... When the soul is strong, the spirit is strong; when the soul is strong, the mind is strong; when the mind is strong, the mind is strong. , can be distracting..."
"The soul is so powerful that it can leave the body and wander around the world alone..."
Luo Qingzhou looked at these words, and there was a "boom" in his mind, as if the chaos was beginning to open, and he suddenly became clear.
Could it be that the trance and light feeling in front of the window before was the soul about to leave the body, but it was suddenly stopped and traumatized due to lack of mental strength and soul?
At this moment, he suddenly seemed to have opened the door to a new world.
He continued to turn the pages of the book, reading eagerly.
