Su Wen and Jiang Li had just stepped through the door of the main hall when they heard Su Shitong's question. They both stood stunned on the spot.
"The old man's eyes are indeed as bright as fire. I am indeed a Taoist."
Ye Su admitted openly. Su Yunxuan, who was sitting next to him, turned his head instantly and looked at Ye Su with wide eyes.
"You...are you a Taoist?" Su Yunxuan asked blankly.
"Yes, otherwise, why would all your actions to investigate my origins yield no results?"
Ye Su said with a smile.
This time when he came to treat Su Shitong, Ye Su was not prepared to hide his identity from Su Shitong.
Although the new era is about science and all so-called feudal superstitions must be eradicated, people of Su Shi's age have experienced so many things and have stood at the highest position in the country.
Naturally, he knows many things that ordinary people cannot possibly know.
Ordinary people may think that the so-called Taoism is just something compiled, but Su Shitong knew very well that Taoists really exist.
Because in the government department, there is such a very special secret department, and within this secret department, there are ascetics who are specifically affiliated with the government!
"You two should come and sit down too. What do you look like standing there?"
Mr. Su waved his hand towards his son and daughter-in-law who were standing blankly at the door of the main hall, and said.
Su Wen and Jiang Li hurriedly agreed, and then sat down where Su Shi was sitting, just across from Ye Su and Su Yunxuan.
But at this time, the two people had very confused expressions on their faces.
Regarding the secret department, it can be regarded as the top secret of the country. Even at Su Wen's current level, he does not have the authority to know.
The reason why Mr. Su no longer avoids his son and daughter-in-law is because they have witnessed the whole process that happened before.
Second, after walking through the door of life and death, the old man's mood became more open-minded, and his views on some things had changed compared to before.
"It's really Yunxuan's luck to know you. Of course, it's also my luck as an old man. However, pulling me back from that hell would be a big drain on you, right? How much do I care about your affairs?
I also know that even people like you shouldn’t be able to do anything about this kind of natural death.”
Mr. Su looked at Ye Su with sharp eyes and asked in a deep voice.
"Fortunately, Mr. Su, your body has not really reached its end. It's because some old injuries have never been cured, so your body has been greatly affected. Although you have been taking good care of yourself over the years, but
Those ordinary maintenance methods have little effect. I just reorganized your body, which can't be considered to extend your life. At most, it can extend your life span that you should have."
Ye Su said simply. As for his own consumption, he didn't mention a word.
Mr. Su took a deep look at Ye Su, then smiled casually and said, "I won't say too much thanks. I think Yun Xuan should have mentioned it to you. You didn't just give me this time.
If you extend your life, you also extend the life of the entire Su family. Therefore, in the future, if there is any use for my Su family, feel free to mention it. I know that people like you often don’t value these worldly things. But since it is
When you hang out in this society, you will always encounter some troublesome things. And when it comes to dealing with such things, a family like our Su family is better at it and more convenient than ascetics like you."
"Then I would be disrespectful."
Ye Su smiled and nodded, but did not refuse Su Shitong's kindness.
Just like Su Shitong said, even if he doesn't need the help of the Su family, since he joins the world to practice, he will always interact with all kinds of people, like Li Qingmei, like Li Shupei, like Autumn, like Qin Songlin,
These people may always encounter places where they need help from such a big family.
Many times, it is necessary to form a good relationship to prepare for emergencies, even for ascetics.
Su Wen and Jiang Li looked at each other, and each could see the shocked look in each other's eyes.
"One more thing, I really feel that my physical condition is better than ever before, as if I have returned to more than ten years ago. Can you give me an accurate answer, so that I can have an idea in my mind, can I maintain this condition?
how long?"
Mr. Su continued to ask.
"If nothing unexpected happens, you can live for about five more years."
Ye Su said directly without hesitation or concealment.
Based on previous treatments for Su Shitong's body, Ye Su knew Su Shitong's overall physical condition by heart.
Five years is the longest time that Su Shitong's body can continue to survive after he has completely treated his physical ailments.
Without the comprehensive transformation and improvement of the body through vitality like monks, the body of an ordinary human being can withstand the passage of time, which is basically about a hundred years.
Whether it is the surrounding air or various other environmental influences, the corrosion of the human body is going on all the time.
This natural law of birth, aging, illness and death cannot be counteracted by so-called nutritional supplements or medicines.
"Five years... is enough."
Mr. Su nodded with some relief, and then looked in the direction of Su Wen: "Since I can still live for five years, these five years are enough for you to gain a firm foothold. As for those unclean tails
, hurry up and take advantage of these five years to deal with it, and get rid of all those scum and scum as soon as possible! In the past few years when I was bedridden, the Su family has been a mess for you to control! I am already in my fifties.
!It still doesn’t make me worry!”
Listening to his father training directly in front of outsiders, Su Wen felt a little embarrassed, but he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction on his face, so he could only stand up and bow in response.
"Grandpa! You have just recovered from a serious illness. Why are you still so short-tempered? You don't know how to cultivate yourself."
Su Yunxuan said angrily, and at the same time turned to look at Ye Su, frowning and asked: "Ye Su, can it only be five years? Can't it be longer?"
"Yunxuan! I'm already ninety this year. If you don't die when you are old, you are a thief. Compared with others, I don't know how much longer I have lived. This life is enough."
Mr. Su said boldly, with a very free and easy tone.
"Yunxuan, it's not that I don't want to help, it's just that with your grandfather's body, if you live for another five years, you have already reached the limit. Birth, aging, illness and death are normal, so be patient."
Ye Su opened his mouth to persuade.
"Xiao Ye is right, no one in life is like a whirlwind of dozens of winters and summers. I, the descendant of Su Shitong, cannot act like a little daughter!"
Mr. Su chuckled, then looked at Ye Su and blinked, and then suddenly said: "Xiaoye, I have something to ask your opinion about. If... I want to ask you to join the country's special department, will you?
