C28 The Truth
That person was obedient. Since my master said so, he really didn't say anything.
I only heard that person's breathing was a bit hurried. I didn't know if he was tired from running or because he was worried about my injuries, so he was a bit anxious.
After a short pause, my master continued, "Actually, you don't need to run this trip. Deshui is my last disciple. How could I sit by and do nothing?"
"Let me be clear with you. If it really comes to the end, I will definitely use special methods to ensure that Deshui's life is safe."
When he said the last sentence, my master's tone paused again. It should be a gesture or movement from the other party.
That person's breathing gradually calmed down. He still didn't speak, but he didn't leave immediately either. He was most likely silently communicating with my master.
There was an old mute in our village. Usually, when she made gestures, he felt that it was quite fun to talk in the mute language. It was worthy of being the world's common language.
But now, it was so annoying.
What kind of riddle are they playing?
Are they discussing about me?
What I was most puzzled about was who the person who came was.
I could tell that he and my master were old acquaintances. Moreover, they were close to me. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so concerned about my situation.
I searched carefully in my mind, but my head was about to swell. I couldn't think of the other party's background.
That person stayed in Master's room for about a quarter of an hour before he turned around and left.
In the latter half of the journey, he should have been staring at me from a close distance and carefully observing me.
Because I could feel that he was deliberately suppressing his breath and gently sprayed it on my face.
After that person left, Master muttered softly, "He should be here soon."
I don't know if he was talking about someone coming later or if something was about to happen.
While I was confused, Master had already arrived beside me. His rough palm landed on my stomach, one by one, gently patting my Dantian acupoints.
After thirty-six hits, Master's palm moved to my chest and started to hit my Shanzhong acupoint.
Then, it was the Hundred Convergence, Dachang, Tortoise Tail...
This was clearly the main meridian route that second senior brother had taught me the Heart Calming and Mind Quieting Technique. However, it was just being beaten by Master in reverse.
I don't know what method Master used, but when he gently hit me, there were two completely different auras, warm and cool, drilling into my acupoints.
This guy gave me a comfortable feeling. That feeling was like lying on a hot bed in winter and eating ice cream. It was so satisfying.
When Master hit my Tortoise Tail acupoint, I was a little worried. I was afraid that it would be like what happened to second senior brother and make a sound, causing Master to be covered in dust.
Fortunately, when my master opened my thighs and was about to help me massage my Yin Acupoints, I didn’t feel worried at all.
I thought that my master would do the same thing as before and massage me comfortably.
Unexpectedly, after my master paused for a while, he slapped me hard on my Yin Acupoints.
At the same time, a fierce aura entered my body. It quickly circulated through the main meridians of the six acupoints.
Hiss-
I took a deep breath. I couldn’t care about the changes in my body anymore. I opened my eyes and rubbed my crotch with my right hand.
“Master, what are you doing? Why didn’t you slap me properly?” I asked while grinding my teeth.
While I was talking, I noticed that it was indeed my master’s room. However, there was a small wooden bed on the right side of the door. Now, I was half sitting on the small wooden bed.
At this moment, my head was on the bed. It was slapped by my master. My whole body slid to the bed.
The Yin Acupoint was burning. It was like a small fire was burning my crotch.
The slap from my master was really strong. I felt like my crotch was about to be torn apart.
I silently cursed in my heart. Was my master helping me open the acupoints?
[Are you sure you don't want to smack the little bird in my crotch?]
Master's face was tense, and his eyebrows were lowered even more.
"What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean smack?"
"Okay, you have been lying down for two days. I think you are confused. You should move your body first! When the guest comes later, you must remember what you see and hear. Don't tell anyone!"
Master said seriously.
I finally realized that I was not in the "standing corpse" state after Master reminded me.
I raised my arms and kicked my legs. [Hah! I am not like before.]
I was so happy that I wanted to jump in the yard.
However, I still remembered Master's words. I didn't dare to move casually when I heard the guest coming later.
I knew that the guest would be related to me.
I heard a hearty laughter coming from outside the door.
"Hahaha… Brother Liu, I am here to fulfill my promise. I think you owe me a big favor this time!"
A fat man in his forties walked in with a hearty laughter.
He was born with a smile on his face. His small eyes were squeezed into two lines by the fat on his face.
His chin and neck seemed to have three small swimming rings attached to it.
He slightly pressed down on his chin and neck, so his neck and head were as thick as usual.
I know this person!
He was the Yin Yang Master of our village — Ma Tianlai. Everyone gave him a nickname: Master Ma.
I know that he is very eccentric. He can predict the future and cure illnesses for others. He is very accurate.
During the Lantern Festival, Mrs. Qin, who was next door, contracted an evil disease. Her eyes were fixated on him. With a light jump, she could jump more than two meters away.
After Master Ma saw him, he said that he had provoked the yellow weasel. He muttered and burned a yellow paper to make a substitute.
On the second day, Mrs. Qin recovered and went up the mountain to cut weeds with a sickle.
So when he saw Master Ma, I respectfully jumped off the small wooden bed and greeted him respectfully.
Fortunately, the pain from Master's ruthless slap was much less now. I didn't have to pee in front of Master Ma to avoid embarrassing myself.
Master nodded and said with his hands behind his back, "It's already past eight o'clock. It's not early. Tianlai, let's start according to what we said before!"
When the door opened just now, I noticed that it was dark outside. I didn't expect it to be past eight o'clock at night.
It was just that it was a little strange. Since I had been lying down for two days, why wasn't my stomach hungry? Or could it be that I was too hungry to feel anything?
At that time, there were too many questions in my heart. This thought only flashed in my mind, and then I focused my attention on Master Ma and Master Ma.
I didn't know what they were going to do to me next.
"Heh — — Deshui was raised by me. If something happened to this little guy, wouldn't I be anxious?"
"Don't worry. I'll use more strength later. I have to figure out what happened."
Master Ma smiled and glanced at me. Then he sat on the wooden bed, closed his hands, and breathed out three long breaths towards the empty space between his palms.
"One meter to the netherworld, two meters to the past, three meters to the cause and effect, four meters to the oath!"
Master Ma muttered as he took out handfuls of rice from the cloth bag that he carried with him and sprinkled them in the surrounding corners.
With a series of soft crackling sounds, the temperature in the room seemed to have dropped.
A few gusts of cold wind suddenly appeared in the small room that was sealed without wind.
This kind of cold wind was completely different from the mountain wind outside.
It was a bit like the coldness that I felt when I fell into that pitch-black and strange place.
