Chapter 45: Five Steps to Pursue the Soul

Xu Chunliang shook his head. He had never thought about it, or even thought about becoming a doctor who could treat illnesses and save lives. The reason why he agreed to study medicine with his grandfather was mainly to better cover up his past.

"Didn't your grandfather intend for you to inherit the Huichun Hall?"

"The old man has thought about it, but I'm not very interested in medicine."

Gu Houyi misinterpreted Xu Chunliang's meaning: "It doesn't matter if you like administrative work, all roads lead to Rome."

Xu Chunliang did not deny that he is currently adapting and exploring this era. He has not yet figured out where to go next. His current life and work still satisfy him, and he needs to hibernate in the short term.

In the past, he was obsessed with poisonous scriptures and martial arts, because it was an era when sects were full of masters. On the surface, the world now looked like a prosperous and prosperous age, but for some reason, deep down in his heart,

There is still a sense of crisis, and it seems that there are still some invisible enemies peeking at him from the dark. This possibility should not exist.

Although Xu Chunliang said that he could drink, Gu Houyi did not dare to drink too much. After all, he was frightened by his sudden illness today.

It was Xu Chunliang's first visit, and it was not the right time to enjoy fine wine.

After all, there was a difference in status between him and Gu Houyi, and both of them had reservations. After staying at Gu Houyi's house for more than an hour, Xu Chunliang said goodbye and left.

Before leaving, Gu Houyi took the initiative to add his contact information. According to the usual practice, subordinates and juniors take the initiative to add his contact information. However, Xu Chunliang had no such request. Gu Houyi became the active party instead. This young man gave

He feels very special.

As soon as Xu Chunliang returned home, he received a video call from his grandfather. The old man was worried that he was alone, so he called specifically to see if he was at home.

Xu Chunliang told his grandfather that he was reading at home and asked about the old man's situation there. Xu Changshan told him that everything was going well and he would go home the day after tomorrow.

I hung up the phone and found the rubbings of oracle bone inscriptions that my grandfather had before. After studying them under the lamp for a while, I was almost certain that what these oracle bone inscriptions recorded should be the "Tian Yang" chapter in the "Huangdi Neijing".

According to grandpa, these oracle bone inscriptions should be at the Dongzhou Museum now. I happen to have off work tomorrow, so you can go and have a look.

As for Bai Mushan, the ancient writing expert, it is estimated that he probably failed to decipher the above text. If he deciphered and discovered the secret, this academic achievement will definitely cause a sensation in the world.

The Internet is a good thing. It is easy to find Bai Mushan's main academic achievements in recent years. There is no mention of any news about the "Huangdi Neijing".

Before going to bed every day, Xu Chunliang would meditate regularly and relearn the "Tongtian Baodian". Although he practiced hard for more than a month, he made little progress. It must be that after time travel, his body has changed, and the meridians and acupuncture points are also different from the past, and in today's world

The environment and climate are changing even more, and the air is far less pure than in the past, which is also a huge negative factor for cultivation.

Everything needs to be started from scratch. Although the "Tongtian Treasure Book" is a supreme secret book, it does not help much in terms of the basics of physical training. Xu Chunliang, who recognized the reality, began to have a let-it-take-it mentality, but practiced daily to build the foundation.

, never fell.

All the lights in the room were turned off. Xu Chunliang sat cross-legged on the big bed, breathing quietly, sensing the world around him, and gradually adapting to everything around him. The first step in practice must be to integrate his body and mind with the world.

One body.

When I was in self-forgetfulness, I suddenly smelled a fishy smell, and I immediately judged from the smell that a five-step snake was nearby.

Perception followed the fishy smell spreading in the void, forming an invisible lead, which helped him quickly locate the target. A five-step snake quietly swam along the corner, came to the bedside, climbed up along the legs of the bed, and whispered

Wuxi came to the bed.

The five-step snake getting closer and closer has entered an attack state.

Although Xu Chunliang closed his eyes, he could clearly perceive its location. He felt a little strange in his heart, how could such a poisonous thing sneak into the Huichun Hall?

Dongzhou is located in the north of the Yangtze River, and there are not many snakes and insects. It is no accident that such a highly poisonous thing sneaked into Huichun Hall. Before Xu Chunliang moved here, he had specially observed the surrounding environment, and there were no poisonous snakes living nearby.

Xu Chunliang opened his eyes and saw the black and yellow rope standing up from the bed in the darkness, with bright red letters spitting out of his mouth, like flames dancing.

The five-step snake locked its target, but it made no next attack move. It felt an invisible pressure. This powerful momentum came from Xu Chunliang, who was very close at hand. It gave up its attack plan in an instant.

I just want to surrender at the other person's feet.

Xu Chunliang looked at the five-step snake. This snake is also known as the adder and the sharp-nosed viper. It is one of the most common venomous snakes in China.

The five-step snake in front of him is three feet long. Xu Chunliang has seen larger ones, with a body length of up to seven feet, a triangular head, and a pair of oval cheek sockets between the nostrils and eyes. Relying on these cheek sockets, you can

Sensing heat is equivalent to a pair of heat detectors.

Xu Chunliang stretched out his right hand, and the five-step snake's triangular head moved back for a moment, then lowered its head and approached Xu Chunliang's right hand. The bright red letter gently licked his fingertips. At first glance, it looked like Xu Chunliang's fingertips.

A flame danced on its tip.

Suddenly, Xu Chunliang's body fell limply, and then twitched non-stop.

A dark shadow rolled in from the open window, and the moonlight fell on the man's face. You could see that he was wearing black stockings on his head. The man stretched his hands extremely quickly and jumped down from the window sill, just like an autumn leaf falling to the ground.

Looking at Xu Chunliang who was twitching on the bed, the man in black shook his head proudly and tapped the thin bamboo stick on the ground twice.

The five-step snake swam from Xu Chunliang's side, slid to the ground silently, came to the front of the man in black, and climbed up his arm along the bamboo pole.

The man in black was obviously an expert at controlling snakes. He glanced at Xu Chunliang, who was still struggling on the bed, and had no intention of rescuing him. He looked around the room and made sure that there was no surveillance in the room before planning to leave.

As soon as he turned around, the five-step snake lying obediently on his shoulder actually attacked him and bit him right in the face.

The man in black was in severe pain and yelled angrily: "Xiaohua, let go..." He had forgotten to shut up in fear.

Xiaohua was the nickname he gave to his pet snake. Xiaohua refused to let go and bit his right cheek tightly. The thin stockings couldn't stop Xiaohua's fangs at all. Two long fangs pierced into his face.

skin and flesh, injecting venom into it.

The toxin of the adder is a hemolytic toxin composed of protein, and this toxin is highly hemorrhagic.

Usually the victim will experience immediate pain and bleeding from the wound, followed by swelling, blistering, tissue gangrene and ulcers.

The man in black was already feeling dizzy and his heartbeat was racing. He secretly screamed that something was wrong and hurriedly took out the antivenom he carried with him. If he didn't inject it in time, he might lose his life here today.

Just as he took out the medicine bottle for injection, a figure unexpectedly rushed up and kicked his hand holding the medicine bottle. The medicine bottle immediately flew out of his hand, fell on the floor and rolled far away.

The man in black was so frightened that he looked up and saw that Xu Chunliang, who had been struggling on the bed just now, was standing in front of him.

The man in black didn't care about dealing with Xu Chunliang, and crawled forward on both hands and feet. He had to snatch the serum back in time, because his life was all tied to that medicine bottle.

The body of the five-step snake was wrapped around the neck of the man in black. At this time, it had completely lost control. Its only thought was to get rid of its owner.

Xu Chunliang picked up the bamboo stick used by the man in black to control snakes from the ground, pointed it at the ninth thoracic vertebra behind the man in black, and tapped it hard.

This is the Jinshui point, which belongs to the Du meridian. The name Jinshui means that the water, dampness and wind in the heavenly part of the Du meridian dissipate heat and condense here. Hitting this point with a heavy hand can make the muscles and fascia of the whole body stiff, as if the body is immobilized.

Law.

The man in black was first poisoned by the snake's venom, and then his acupoints were hit by him. His whole body froze in place as if turned to stone.

The lights were bright, Xu Chunliang walked past him with his slippers on, picked up the bottle of snake venom serum from the ground, looked at it in his hand, and then his eyes fell on the man's face, because his head was covered with a layer of black stockings.

So I couldn't see his face clearly at this time.

The five-step snake wrapped its body around the man in black's neck several times, getting tighter and tighter. If this continues, the man in black will be strangled to death before the poison takes its toll.

Xu Chunliang tapped the ground lightly with his bamboo stick. The five-step snake gave up its attack on its old master and climbed on the bamboo stick.

The man in black couldn't believe his eyes. He had raised this five-step snake since it hatched. He had spent a lot of effort to tame the snake, but he didn't expect that Xu Chunliang could control it effortlessly.

Now he fully understood that Xu Chunliang's poisoning just now was just a disguise, the purpose was to make him believe it was true.

Xu Chunliang reached out and took off the stockings from the man in black's face. At this moment, the man in black's right cheek was swollen and blistered, and blood gurgled out from the two blood holes bitten by the five-step snake. It was terrible to see.

The man in black looked at the tube of snake venom serum in Xu Chunliang's hand and trembled: "Quick... quick... give it to me... give it to me..."

Xu Chunliang said with a smile: "Before you hurt me, did you ever think that you would end up like this?" He didn't know the man in black in front of him, so he didn't know why this man would kill him? With the method just now,

Look, this man died more than deservedly.

"Boy, if you are wise, give me the serum immediately... If something happens to me, no one in your Huichun Hall will be spared..."

Xu Chunliang sighed and said, "You still dare to threaten me when you are about to die." He raised the glass bottle in his hand as if to throw it to the ground.

The man in black was so frightened that he wailed: "Don't... I... I was wrong... I was blind and blind... Please spare me, spare me this time, I swear, I will never talk to you again."

Be against."

Xu Chunliang reached out and touched the snake head on the bamboo stick. The five-step snake was as docile as a lamb in front of him. The bright red letter licked Xu Chunliang's finger as a response to him. The man in black realized that he had encountered a master.

Snake is a master, and the opponent's methods are many times stronger than his own.

"What's your name? Why do you want to poison me?"

The man in black was bitten by the five-step snake, and he was getting closer and closer to the poisonous attack. He did not dare to waste any more time, and answered honestly: "My name is Han Tianchi."

Xu Chunliang suddenly remembered that when he planned to expose Fan Yajun of the Forestry Bureau, he took the initiative to confess that the mastermind of the cell phone theft case was Han Tianchi. It seemed that this was the reason why Han Tianchi came to take revenge on him.

Han Tianchi begged: "Mr. Xu, please spare your life. Everything is my fault. Give me the serum quickly. It will be too late..." He felt cold all over his body, and his face was numb and itchy.

After being bitten by a five-step snake, although it is not as exaggerated as the five-step snake will die, if you do not receive timely treatment within a short period of time, the risk of death is very high.

Xu Chunliang had already judged from the reaction of Han Tianchi's wound that the poison of this snake was not too severe, and Han Tianchi should be fine within an hour.

Now is not the time when people often killed people. Xu Chunliang decided to do as the Romans do and hand the guy over to the police. He called Lu Qi and told him that he had captured Han Tianchi.

Han Tianchi knew that Xu Chunliang called the police, but he had nothing to do. In terms of his current situation, even if he was caught by the police, it would be better than being poisoned and dying.

While waiting for the police to arrive, Xu Chunliang went to get a disposable syringe and injected anti-venom into Han Tianchi. Although his life and death did not matter to him, it was not auspicious to die in Huichun Hall.

When the police arrived at Huichun Hall, Han Tianchi's condition had stabilized. Lu Qi handcuffed Han Tianchi and briefly asked about the situation. Xu Chunliang only said that he thought there was a thief in the house. After he was caught, he actually used a cauliflower snake to steal.

The main criminal, Han Tianchi.

Han Tianchi's face was half swollen and his head was drooped without saying a word. He had been living in society for half his life, but today he fell into the hands of a young man and almost lost his life.

Xu Chunliang didn't mention the fact that he used the five-step snake to murder his life, and Han Tianchi certainly wouldn't say anything about it. If he told this, it would be attempted murder, which would be an additional crime. He didn't know about his pet either.

Where did the snake go? I worked hard to raise it for three years, but in the end it went away with someone else. The feeling of being betrayed by the snake was not good.

After the police left, Xu Chunliang found the bamboo stick that Han Tianchi used to control snakes. The bamboo stick was a few years old. He studied it carefully and found that the word "poor" was engraved in small seal script on the head of the stick.

Xu Chunliang looked at the word "poor" and couldn't help but frowned. Could it be that Han Tianchi came from a poor family?

Qiongmen is the Beggar Clan, known as the best gang in the world. Even when the Five Poison Sect was at its peak, he would not take the initiative to provoke the Beggar Clan. This was because the Beggar Clan's disciples were numerous and powerful, and there were many masters gathered there. If he really offended him,

A gang of beggars will cause endless trouble.

It is rare to see beggars in today's era. Xu Chunliang originally thought that poor families would disappear with the changes of the times, but he did not expect to find traces of disciples from poor families here.

This bamboo stick is a typical dog-beating stick used by poor families. The poor disciples hold bamboo sticks, one can beat dogs, and the other can control snakes. In the past, almost everyone had a beggar, but in today's era, it is rare to see them.

Yeah, the symbolic meaning is greater than the actual meaning.

Recalling what Han Tianchi said threatening him, if there is a huge poor family behind this guy, then he does have some confidence. It seems that this peaceful and prosperous age is not without the world, and he needs to be more vigilant in the future.

Xu Chunliang went to bed very late. When he woke up early the next morning, he found that the snake was still curled up under the bed. After last night's incident, the five-step snake had regarded Xu Chunliang as its new owner and was silently guarding him.

.

Xu Chunliang originally planned to let it go, but it refused to leave. After much deliberation, he found a temporary shelter for it in the backyard. Fortunately, his grandfather was not at home. If he was allowed to see this five-step snake,

, and I don’t know how to explain it. Everything has spirituality. This five-step snake has its own way of hiding and will not cause any trouble to Xu Chunliang.
