C9 The Meridians of Saints
Half a day later.
"Alright, I'm finally ashore. My old bones are about to fall apart from the shaking of this broken ship. Next time, I must let that stubborn old man come out for a stroll!" Once the ship docked, Elder Bai was the first to jump onto the shore. He rubbed his waist and complained.
After that, the little girl's body became light and gently floated to the ground like a fallen leaf. It could be seen how exquisite the martial skill she practiced was.
"Elder Bai, I'll leave that little guy to you!" The little girl said mischievously.
"This little ancestor is giving me a lot of trouble. " Although she said that, there was a doting look on Elder Bai's face.
In a small house beside a quiet bamboo forest, the boy was quietly lying on the bed. He frowned and two streams of tears rolled down from his cheeks. His whole body was shivering.
An old man in linen clothes put one hand on the boy's wrist and frowned. Then, his face was filled with fear as he shook his head helplessly. His expression seemed to be in disbelief.
After a while, the old man pulled back his hand and covered the boy with a thick blanket. He took out a pill from his pocket, pinched the boy's cheeks with his left hand, and put the pill into his mouth with his right hand.
"How is it? Old stubborn, can you do it?" Elder Bai asked.
The little girl beside him looked at the hemp garment old man anxiously.
The old man glared at Elder Bai and said angrily, "Nonsense! Since I have made my move, even if he dies, I will snatch him from the hands of Hades! I would rather not save him if I am not confident! "
" Then you even put on that expression as if you've eaten shit just now. I thought you wouldn't be able to save him! " Elder Bai said disapprovingly.
"A dog can't spit ivory out of its mouth! Today, I will chop you up and use you as fertilizer!" The hemp garment old man said and was about to use his courage.
The little girl beside him seemed to be used to this kind of scene. She did not even turn her head and only held her chin with both hands. She looked at the little boy lying on the bed and helplessly said word by word, "Two. . . I - Here. Inside. Where!"
At this moment, the two of them had just restrained their urge to attack. The hemp garment old man fiercely glared at Elder Bai. He said, "This little fellow's body is very strange. The meridians in his entire body are unusually wide. However, it is filled with wind, cold, and damp. It is such a profound external evil. It must be that the Three Evils entered his body since he was young, and he usually suffered from severe pain. What is even more strange is that there is actually a trace of inner energy in his Dantian. "
" What's so strange about that? I still have a few strands of inner energy in my body! " The little girl was puzzled.
"His inner energy is different from ordinary people. I've never seen such inner energy before. Perhaps it shouldn't be called inner energy. " The hemp garment elder explained.
"Then what is it called? It can't be courage, right?" Elder Bai also put away his previous stubbornness.
"This, I can't explain it. Because I have never seen it before, and it has never been written in books. Maybe I will know when Island Lord comes back. Besides, I have never seen such a broad meridian of this little fellow before. This time, I have truly broadened my horizons. However, it's a pity that it's all occupied by the cold and wet evil. " The hemp garment old man shook his head.
"What's so strange about having broad meridians? There are many people in this world who are born with wide meridians. Our little ancestor. . . He's just one. You old stubborn fool, you really don't know anything! " Elder Bai said with disdain.
Hearing this, the little girl raised her chin proudly.
"Then have you ever seen such a young age? Do you have a meridian as wide as a saint? " The hemp garment old man said indifferently.
"Then what. . . ? What did you say? Say it again? " Elder Bai was about to retort when he suddenly reacted.
"I say, have you ever seen a child about ten years old whose meridians are as wide as a saint's?" The hemp garment old man repeated.
"This. . . ? Impossible, old stubborn, you must have seen wrongly!" Elder Bai's face was full of disbelief.
"Then what's the difference between him and me? Could it be that he's stronger than me?" The little girl was unconvinced.
"Hehe, little ancestor. If a normal person's meridian is described as a stream, then your meridian is as wide as a river, and this little guy. . . "The hemp garment old man paused for a moment before continuing," This little guy's meridian is like a sea! "
The hemp garment old man glanced at Elder Bai, whose face was filled with shock, and slowly said," You look like you've eaten shit right now! "
The little girl seemed to be rather calm as she leisurely looked at the two of them. A Saint's cultivation level was not something a child of this age could imagine.
"It's true that I have someone I can't treat, but I want to see what I miss. Then it's fine if I don't want the title of 'Medicine Immortal'. " The hemp garment old man continued.
"Chen Qi, do you know what you are talking about? How can a ten-year-old kid's meridians be as wide as a saint's? That's a Soul Essence level saint! " Elder Bai no longer called him stubborn, but directly called him by his name. This was very rare.
"That's the truth. This is also the first time I've seen him in my life. Many years ago, I was fortunate enough to examine and treat the 'Ice Saint', but the width of this child's meridians is the same as the 'Ice Saint'. " The hemp garment old man continued.
"Old stubborn man, is Grandpa Ice very powerful?" The little girl asked doubtfully.
"Hehe, Qingyu , you are still young. When you grow up, you will know how terrifying the cultivation of a Saint is. "
Chen Qi stroked the little girl's hair and smiled.
The little girl curled her lips disapprovingly. She did not think that the old man who had been riding on her neck since she was young was very powerful.
"How is this kid's illness?" Elder Bai wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and asked.
"En, it's precisely because this kid's meridians are unusually wide that he is able to contain so many abnormal cold and humid diseases, causing them to be extremely difficult to cure. I am also helpless, but if he can reach the Soul Consolidating Level, those three evils can be cured by themselves. " Chen Qi seemed as if he would never be in a hurry, always looking calm and unhurried.
"Soul Consolidating Level? Looks like there's still hope. " Elder Bai nodded and said.
"However, I'm afraid that before he can live to that age, the Three Evils will invade his heart and kill him!" Chen Qi continued.
Elder Bai was about to go crazy from Chen Qi's anger. He immediately cursed, "Damn it! You are constipated. You are gasping for air when you speak!"
"I am not finished yet! Why are you so anxious?!" Chen Qi cursed. He continued, "But the strange inner energy in his dantian has already protected his heart meridian. Now, even if he wants to die, it will be difficult for him to do so!"
Elder Bai had gone completely crazy this time. He let out a strange cry and pounced towards Chen Qi.
Three days later.
"Little guy, you're finally awake!" A crisp voice rang in Ye Po's ears.
"I. . . Where is this?" Ye Po felt his eyelids grow heavy, his entire body weak, and all the bones in his body felt as if they had been broken.
"This is Twin God Island. What's your name, little guy?" Ye Po asked. The little girl asked excitedly.
"My name is - - What's my name? Who am I? Why can't I remember anything!" Ye Po's head felt like it was going to explode. He actually could not remember who he was.
"Ah? I am asking you, how do I know who you are? I saved you from the sea!" The little girl said.
"Oh, what happened to me? Why am I in the sea?" Ye Po could not recall anything.
"The little guy is awake? Come, consume this pill again. It will be better tomorrow. " Chen Qi walked in and handed a brown pill to Ye Po.
"Oh!" Ye Po received the pill mechanically and put it into his mouth.
"Pui! It stinks! What is this?" Ye Po only felt an extremely pungent smell coming from it, and he immediately felt nauseous.
"Hey, don't vomit. This is the Wind Dispelling Pill. It's hard to buy it with just a few thousand gold coins!" Chen Qi hurriedly received it with both hands.
"Grandpa, can you tell me what's going on? How come I don't remember anything? " Ye Po held back the feeling of vomiting and asked.
"Oh? You actually lost your memory!" Chen Qi slowly walked up to Ye Po and put his hand on Ye Po's wrist to carefully examine him.
"Oh, it must be because of the stimulation of the sea water that caused your paralysis. Once again, the Three Evils entered your body. These strong stimuli caused you to temporarily lose your memory, or because you suffered some strong stimulus before you fell into the sea that caused you to escape from the temporary memory loss. But it doesn't matter, you can still recover. " Chen Qi said slowly.
"How long will it take for him to recover?" The little girl asked.
"That's hard to say. A few days, a few months, a few years, or even a few decades. " Chen Qi still looked calm and unhurried.
The little girl rolled her eyes at Chen Qi, thinking, Only Elder Bai can subdue you!
Ye Po looked at Chen Qi blankly, as if he did not know what was going on.
Chen Qi looked at Ye Po, shook his head, and said earnestly, "Little guy, let me tell you what is going on!"
When Ye Po heard this, he slightly perked up and listened with his ear to the side.
"Sigh, about you, I really don't know what is going on!"
"Elder Bai! Come here!" The little girl beside him shouted.
. . .
In the next few days, Chen Qi would regularly send over a "Wind Extracting Pill. " According to him, it was used to suppress the Three Evils in Ye Po's body. Although it couldn't be completely eradicated, it could still be slightly alleviated.
As for Ye Po's identity, after Elder Bai and Chen Qi had been bickering for two hours, and had been fighting bare-chested for four hours, Finally, there was a result, and that was, with all the strange aspects of Ye Po. . . He should be related to a certain Super Sect, so he had temporarily sealed off all the news. He warned everyone on the island not to spread this news, or else they would be expelled from the island immediately. They would make a decision after Island Lord returned.
In the first few days, Ye Po tried his best to recall everything. The only thing he remembered was a heart technique. Although he forgot its name, he remembered every step of the heart technique's cultivation process. He also remembered that he had to work hard to cultivate it. As for why, he could not remember it no matter what.
Furthermore, Ye Po seemed to always choose to cultivate at night involuntarily.
That little girl often came to find Ye Po to play. Ye Po also knew that her name was "Xue Qingyu," the daughter of the Twin God Island's Island Lord. At nine years old, she had already reached the middle stage of the Spirit Focus realm, Martial Cultivator was level ten, and according to what she said, she also knew a very powerful human-level martial skill, but Ye Po had never seen her use it before.
On a large reef in the Twin God Island.
"Little guy, do you know martial skills? If you do, help me teach Xu Ye a lesson. I hate him the most. He always follows me. I'm so annoyed!" Xue Qingyu pouted and said angrily.
"Please, Miss. You don't seem to be as old as me. Why do you always call me little guy?" Ye Po said helplessly.
"Then tell me your name. Those two old men call you little guy, why can't I call you little guy?" Xue Qingyu asked righteously.
"Uh, this. . . " Ye Po really did not have a suitable reason to refute and could only acquiesce.
"I don't seem to know martial skills. Don't you know a very powerful martial skill? Why don't you teach him a lesson yourself?" Ye Po continued to ask.
"Me? I beat him up more than ten times a day, but I couldn't chase him away. Every time I came to play with you, I would run over sneakily. If he found out, he would follow me to death!" Xue Qingyu seemed very helpless.
"If he followed after me after being beaten up by you more than ten times a day, then this person is really strange. " Ye Po secretly laughed in his heart and immediately asked, "Oh right, who is Xu Ye?"
"Xu Ye is the same age as me. I don't know where he came from. One day, his father suddenly brought him back from outside and said that he was the son of a friend. In the end, when we arrived on the island, this damn brat followed me every day, and treated me the same way I treated him on the island. Everyone on the island treated him like a living ancestor, he said. " Xue Qingyu said hatefully. Then she smiled and said, "But he is not as powerful as me. And his martial arts doesn't seem to be as powerful as mine, so he gets beaten up by me every time!"
"Oh, but I don't know martial arts, so I can't help you. " Ye Po spread his hands and said helplessly.
"Oh, right. Let's go play in that stubborn old man's herb garden tomorrow. That stubborn old man is guarding there all day like he's guarding his life. There must be something good there!" Xue Qingyu said to Ye Po excitedly.
"Herb garden? What's the meaning of that? What's so fun about a pile of medicinal herbs? I don't want to go. " Ye Po didn't seem to be interested.
"But I heard there is a medicine there that can help you recover your memory. " Xue Qingyu had a sly look on her face.
"Impossible. If there was, Grandpa Chen Qi would have given it to me long ago. Why didn't he tell me?" Ye Po obviously did not believe her.
"Believe it or not, but don't blame me for not telling you. When the herbs are thrown into the furnace by the stubborn old man, everything will be gone!" Xue Qingyu turned her head to the side.
"Then. . . If you are not lying to me, I will go with you once. If you are lying to me, then go and find that Xu Ye. " Ye Po hesitated for a moment. Finally, he couldn't resist the temptation.
"Great, little guy. I will go and find you tomorrow morning, then we will go to the herb garden. It is decided, you are not allowed to go back on your word!" Xue Qingyu jumped up excitedly, then grabbed Ye Po's hand and shook it.
Ye Po seemed a little unnatural. He hurriedly pulled his hand back. After all, it seemed like he had never been pulled by a little girl like this before.
The rays of the setting sun quietly shone on the two children. It was unusually dazzling. This scene seemed to have foreseen a sense of happiness.
