Chapter 39 Exercises
"I said that I gave a hint with my little finger, and Officer Chen came up to me. Do you believe it?"
"I don't believe it. If you have this ability, why do you need to study? Just go around the street and flirt with those rich women, and you can be rich and famous in your life."
Hearing Uncle Da's words, Cao Wei secretly sighed that these were indeed words that Cao Dahua, a tough-as-nails man, would say. They were true to his profession. But he couldn't help but rolled his eyes and choked back.
"You still ask if you don't believe me? It's not obvious that Officer Chen came to see me for business! Uncle Da, I beg you, don't think so dirty. If you act like this, it will easily lead to misunderstandings."
"No, I saw what you looked like just now, and Officer Chen's expression... She is like an iceberg. I have never heard of her showing such an expression to anyone!"
"Stop making trouble, Uncle Da. What can someone like you with only theoretical experience see? Also, you're not the police officer Chen you just met yesterday. How do you know what kind of person she is?"
The latter question was difficult to answer. Cao Dahua couldn't say that although he was an undercover agent, he was still very familiar with the gossip in the police station. He was not willing to reveal his special identity to Cao Wei, so he could only raise his head and hit him.
Hahaha, he immediately started to change the topic.
"Of course it's obvious. Forget it, I can't control the affairs of you young people. Just be careful and don't let Teacher He know about it!"
"Damn, I didn't do anything. I just did a simple favor for Officer Chen. Is there anything that shouldn't be known to anyone?"
"As long as you have the confidence to play well."
Cao Dahua is very open-minded in this regard, or he has already noticed that Cao Wei's appearance is the material that attracts bees and butterflies by nature. He can manage the first grade of junior high school, and he can also manage the fifteenth grade. So still
It's better to let nature take its course. When Cao Wei can no longer resist, he will naturally be taken back.
Moreover, compared to Cao Wei's love life, Cao Dahua is more concerned about another issue at the moment.
"Hey, I've already bought the boat ticket. The boat leaves at nine o'clock in the evening and goes straight to Lisboa. Uncle, I have put all my wealth on you now. Don't let me down, Awei."
Ever since he almost lost his underwear after being won by Cao Wei in Five Stud last night, Cao Dahua now regards Cao Wei's gambling skills as a god.
Cao Dahua, who has basically been losing money all his life and only won 1,800 yuan on his luckiest days, never thought that he would one day make a fortune through gambling.
He just doesn't dare to daydream like this, but that doesn't mean he won't have this idea.
Getting rich is the simplest dream of Xiangjiang people in this era. For a colony with capital control and narrow upward channels, it is not easy to get rich through conventional means. The best of unconventional means is
What people can accept with peace of mind is a big gamble and getting rich overnight.
Betting on horse racing, lottery tickets, stocks, and even going to Lisboa to spend the night are the most common choices for daydream patients.
Of course, the sequelae of most people is to wake up crying and cry. If you are lucky, you can survive on rice and pickled vegetables before your salary is paid next month; if you are unlucky, you can basically queue upstairs.
Ready to fly freely with all the fellow sufferers.
Cao Dahua has always been timid and cautious. He may have been so ambitious that he wanted to get rich at this kind of gambling table. But those warriors who flew down from high-rise buildings without ropes poured cold water on him directly.
It made him realize how much he weighed.
It can be said that if Cao Wei hadn't shown such amazing skills in front of him, he might not have dared to have such a fantasy. But since God sent the opportunity to him, then naturally he would not be polite.
Anyway, someone has to win money in a casino. If that's the case, then why can't it be them? It's better than taking advantage of the already rich tycoons and crooks.
In short, Uncle Da has already seen millions of dollars of wealth waving to him, so he naturally seems a little anxious. Compared with his desire to fly over now, Cao Wei is much calmer.
"Why are you so anxious? It's only the afternoon. It's still early for the evening boat. What's more, do you plan to go just like that?"
He pointed at the clothes of the two of them. Uncle Da was fine. He wore a knitted jacket, a plaid shirt, and suspenders. Although he didn't look like an elite in suits and ties, he still looked like a middle-class citizen.
Although this kind of ordinary citizen is not suitable for hanging out in the casino every day, it is not strange to come to the casino to spend some money when he has some spare money in his pocket. The strange thing would only be Cao Wei.
Although he is wearing casual clothes now, his too young face still makes it easy to see the fact that he is not yet an adult.
After all, Lisboa is a legal casino, so it doesn’t mean that it will allow minors to enter. After all, minors are not their main target.
But similarly, management these days is not as strict as it will be in later generations, especially in this kind of place. If you block every customer to check their ID card, you will only lose customers. So under normal circumstances, as long as you don't show too obvious
, let the casino management staff stop in front of you to check your ID card, then you can enjoy the pleasure of having your pockets emptied as a customer with peace of mind.
Cao Wei thought of this problem, so he took out a pen and wrote a list to Cao Dahua.
"Suit, watch, glasses, hair wax? What do you want these things for?"
"Get dressed up and disguise yourself, if you don't want me to be caught underage and kicked out of the casino early!"
"Then why don't you buy it yourself? Please, I just came back from outside!"
"I want to take a nap now to recharge my energy for the night. Of course, I can go. But don't blame me if I can't think straight by then!"
"No, you'd better recharge your batteries. Leave the errands to me. You just have to be responsible for winning money for me."
Of course, Cao Dahua knew clearly what was light and what was serious. He didn't have any baggage, so he muttered something casually and walked out of the house again.
And Cao Wei did indeed run back to his room as he said. But he didn't really rest, but opened the skill bar and checked the newly upgraded skills.
The white and silver color on the frame of the proficient level Dragon and Tiger Great Alchemy has been so bright that it is almost dazzling. Cao Wei doesn't know what this means yet, but he knows that the upgraded Dragon and Tiger Great Alchemy is definitely different from the previous one.
Same.
This is the true supreme secret of Taoism. The origin can even be traced back to the originators of the northern sect such as Zhong Liquan and Lu Dongbin. It is enough to be the same as Longhu Shanzheng's "Tai Shang San Wu Zheng Yi League Wei Bao Lu", Ge Zao
The "Tai Shang Cave Xuan Ling Bao Immeasurable Human Sutra" of the Shan Ling Bao Sect is comparable to the "Shang Qing Da Dong Zhen Jing" of the Mao Shan Qing Sect.
Not much else to say, since he was inspired by Chen Jinnan to understand the theory of refining and transforming qi, and advanced to mastery of the Secret of the Dragon and Tiger Great Pill, the first thing he felt was that nothing in his body was unnatural and unnatural.
Transparent.
The internal organs in his body seemed to have turned into an oven, as if they were burning all the time, providing his body with almost surging power.
This is different from the feeling of a strong body gained through boxing training.
To use a vivid metaphor, if his body used to rely on the blood supply function of the heart and lungs to provide a strong enough power, then his body will undoubtedly have an additional power system at this moment. It is like
It's like adding another engine to a machine.
That should be something called Qi produced by himself through the method of refining Qi. It is lively, flexible, and continuous. It is somewhat similar to the internal force used by Chen Jinnan before, but it seems to be
Not exactly the same.
Chen Jinnan's internal energy gave him the feeling of being a little lifeless, far less lively than the Qi in him. In addition, the feeling of that internal energy in him also tended to be feminine, unlike his Qi, which just flowed in the air.
There is a burning heat in my body that feels like the scorching sun at noon.
This is not surprising. After all, it is the elixir method passed down by Lu Zu, whose Taoist name is Chunyangzi. It is common sense that pure yang is the same and does not touch yin evil. However, Cao Wei was still confused about how to use this thing for a while.
No clue.
There is no way, this Dragon and Tiger Pill is a supreme secret, and the difficulty lies there. It can be said that apart from the ancestors of their sect, there seems to be only Zhang Sanfeng and the fifth ancestor of the Beizong.
He could understand the secrets within. Not to mention his grandfather, not even his grandfather and his grandfather's master could understand this secret.
So naturally, apart from passing down the golden elixir treasure jar left by the ancestor according to the script, they could not provide any useful insights to Cao Wei.
Cao Wei could only explore on his own, but it was not easy. At least he had only some immature ideas after thinking about it for a long time.
"From a scientific point of view, Qi should be the same as internal force. It is energy produced out of thin air in the body in an incredible way. In the final analysis, humans are carbon-based life, and all energy comes from cells.
of mitochondria.”
"Mitochondria consume organic matter and oxygen during respiration, produce carbon dioxide and water, and release energy in the process. This energy is mainly expressed as heat energy. And the heat energy converted by the human body itself...is this a manifestation of Qi?"
"So Qi should be the extra heat energy released by the high-power operation of human cells?"
"Then if the heat energy released by mitochondria is Qi, what is the internal force? The two-way conversion of Qi? Just like the heat released by a nuclear reactor cannot be directly converted into electrical energy, it must be converted through the step of boiling water. If you look at it this way, the internal force
Could it be a lower-level derivative of Qi?"
"But if so, why do we need to do this kind of transformation? The principle of conservation of energy determines that energy must be consumed during the transformation process. So, it's not that we don't want to, but that we can't?"
