Chapter 215 The Road to Practice Alone

   "I thought you'd make this place a bit more grand."

  " At the beginning, I had that idea. After earning some money, I was a little inflated. Later, I calmed down and thought about it carefully.

  I’m just staying here to practice when I have nothing to do. After I calm down, I really feel that I can practice something. "Li Hsin-chu brewed a pot of tea.

   "That's good."

  The two were talking when Li Xinzhu's phone rang.

   "I'll take a call."

   "Hey, what's the matter? Well, when did it happen? Okay, I see. You guys will be off duty and your wages will be paid as usual. That's it."

   "What's the matter?" At such a close distance, Wang An could hear the sound of leaves falling on the ground, and he could hear the voice on the phone clearly even if he didn't intend to listen.

  The person on the other side of the phone said that two hotels under Li Hsinchu were closed down by the local department because of substandard sanitation requirements, and they asked for rectification within a time limit.

   "Small things." Li Xinzhu said with a smile, "Let's eat here tonight."

   "Okay, I will follow your arrangement." Wang An said with a smile.

  That night, Li Xinzhu arranged a table of meals for Wang An, just the two of them.

   "Do you know when I'm the happiest now? It's when I practice Kung Fu for a while and suddenly find that I've improved again. That kind of joy is stronger than the millions I've earned." Li Xinzhu said.

   "I seem to have regained the energy I had when I first learned martial arts with my master. It's a pity that my master will never come back." Li Xinzhu's expression suddenly became much darker when he said this.

   "If your master knows what you are like now, he will be happy for you."

   "Well, maybe they will ask me for some money." Li Xinzhu said with a smile.

   "By the way, you have to pay attention recently." Wang An told him that the Zheng family might retaliate against him.

   "These guys are so nasty!" Li Hsinchu said angrily after hearing this, and also told Wang An that Zheng Kun asked him to ask for a price of 50 million.

   "With so much money, don't you feel tempted?" Wang An laughed after hearing this. He didn't expect that the Zheng family would come up with Li Xinzhu's idea in order to please him, and they would be so generous with the money directly.

   "To be honest, I'm really moved, that's not a small amount!" Li Xinzhu said with emotion.

   "Zheng Kun is not a simple person." Wang Andao, in order to find himself, he can do such a big setback, and he can condescend to others. Once such a person is ready to take revenge on others, he will never be soft-hearted.

   "Hey, did they arrange people to do my two hotels that were seized?" Li Xinzhu suddenly remembered the phone call he had received before.

"possible."

   "Hiss, these guys, they are really hard to deal with because they are so high up."

  The so-called "the people don't fight with the officials, and the poor don't fight with the rich." This statement is justified. Ordinary people are in a rather disadvantaged position when they are fighting against the powerful class.

  Since ancient times, there have been a few people who sued the government and won, and those who won can be compiled into novels and stories, and the difficulty of it can be imagined.

   Li Xinzhu drank the cup in one gulp. He is not alone.

   "The dignitaries are not gods!" His words sound confident, and his greatest confidence is Wang An who is sitting across from him.

   "Eat vegetables."

   During this meal, Li Xinzhu drank a catty of wine alone. After dinner, the two chatted for a long time at night, and Wang An spent the night on Qingyang Mountain.

  The next morning, he got up early and came to Hu'an City by himself, and came to the familiar small park, where he practiced Tai Chi.

   "Xiao An!" A familiar voice sounded beside him, Wang An looked back and saw an old man, it was Li Juewen who first taught him Tai Chi and led him in.

   It's been a while since I've seen him. Li Juewen is much older than when we met last time. His hair at the temples has turned gray, but he is in good spirits.

   "Master, you are here, long time no see, how are you?"

   "Okay, it's good, but you, you look the same, you seem to be much younger than when we met last time!" The old man smiled and said, "Are you married?"

"Not yet."

   "Do you have a girlfriend, and when are you going to get married?" The old man continued to ask.

   "I haven't figured it out yet."

   "Then we must hurry up."

   "How is your family recently?"

   "Very good, thanks to your help last time." The old man said, because of Wang An's help last time, his son quit drug addiction. It can be said that Wang An saved their family.

   "Then can we practice Tai Chi?"

"good."

  Wang An accompanied Li Juewen to practice Tai Chi.

   "You should be a little rounder here, and the width can be bigger, so that you can feel the feeling of being stretched." This time it was Wang An's turn to give advice to Li Juewen. After punching, Wang An pointed out several areas that could be improved. The old man called again as he said.

   "Well, the method you said is really much better. You have been practicing Tai Chi all these years?"

   "I've been practicing."

  Wang An talked with Li Juewen again, gave him a piece of good tea, declined the invitation of the old man, and left the park.

   After bidding farewell to Li Juewen, Wang An went to see Lu Xiangyi again. The other party seemed very busy, so he was quite surprised to see him.

   "Are you finally willing to come out of the mountain?"

   "The end of the year is approaching, come out for a walk, it seems that you are very busy here?"

   "It's okay." Lu Xiangyi made tea with a smile, "Drink tea."

   "The Zheng family hasn't stopped much recently, has it?" Wang An went straight to the point.

   "They didn't show up, but they were secretly making troubles. This is in line with their style of behavior. It's not good to make a big fuss about this kind of thing."

  Wang An took a sip of tea and was silent for a moment.

   "Eighteen years ago, your Bureau of Special Affairs encircled and suppressed a Daoist Cui. At that time, there should have been no Bureau of Special Affairs. Do you know much about this matter?"

   "You're talking about Cui Daochang from Qingshan Yunlanguan."

"It's him."

   "I know about this. It's a pity that the Taoist priest claims to be a master of swordsmanship." Then Lu Xiangyi told Wang An exactly what he knew. What he said was not much different from what Gu Nanpo said.

   "Is it the descendants of the Zheng family who did the bad things?"

   "Yes, the cause of this incident is very clear. That Taoist Cui wanted to avenge his descendants. For this reason, the Zheng family used their connections to use the power of the special forces, which also caused dissatisfaction among some people."

   "Are you an imperial team or a private armed force?" Wang An asked calmly.

  Lu Xiangyi was silent for a while after hearing this, "In most cases, it's for the public." This can be regarded as a solid answer.

   "Tell me about the special force of your Secret Service Bureau?"

   "It is a general team with four sub-teams with different code names. Their main task is to deal with special emergencies. They will not be involved in ordinary incidents. They will be used in incidents like Cui Daochang."

   "The confidentiality level of these teams is very high. I haven't been able to get in touch yet, but Xu Qi can get in touch, because he was a member of the special operations force back then, and he also participated in the operation to encircle and suppress Cui Daochang."

   "Him?" Wang An was startled slightly after hearing this, "I think he is weak?"

   "It's not that he's weak but you're too strong!" Lu Xiangyi said with a smile after hearing this.

   "This team should be equipped with special high-tech equipment to deal with kung fu masters. It is said that they were studying how to deal with masters who cultivated true qi after confirming that Cui Daochang cultivated true qi." Lu Xiangyi glanced at Wang An when he said this.

   "Does technology affect martial arts?" Wang An smiled, "This is the way, after all, technology is improving."

   "It's a pity that technology is advancing, but martial arts are regressing."

   "If everyone knows martial arts, the society will be prone to chaos, difficult to manage, and martial arts will be banned. The burning of books and censorship of Confucianism, literary inquisition, is what destroyed these things, isn't it?" Wang Andao.

  Martial arts, tricks, witchcraft... Peaceful society does not need these things. What is needed is an obedient people.

  Lu Xiangyi just smiled, and could only smile.

  Wang An stayed with Lu Xiangyi for less than an hour before leaving. After seeing Wang An off, Lu Xiangyi sat in the room by himself for a while, then picked up his cell phone and made a call.

  When Wang An was about to leave Hu'an City, he went to Qingyang Mountain again before leaving, and met Li Xinzhu.

   "Leave so soon, don't you stay here for two more days?"

   "No." Wang Andao, he is now used to life in Yuxiao Mountain and his hometown. "Let me give you some advice before I leave."

   "Okay!" Li Xinzhu was very happy when he heard that Wang An wanted to teach him kung fu.

   "You may wish to practice one type of Xingyiquan first. I think Bengquan is very suitable. There are many moves in Bengquan. You may wish to practice a few of them to the state of innocence." Wang Andao.

  Just like him now, the focus is on the Vajra Zen Palm, no matter how far or near he is, one palm is enough to fight against others.

   "I think your straight strength is well practiced, you might as well put more effort into it, long straight, short straight, and other things are not without practice, just focus on it."

   "Wait a minute, can you write it down for me." Li Xinzhu hurriedly took out the paper and pen and handed them to Wang An.

  Wang An smiled and wrote it down for him. In addition to the method of cultivation, Wang An added another one, eating ginseng.

   "Is there any special effect of eating ginseng?" Li Xinzhu asked curiously pointing to Wang An's last sentence.

   "Ginseng is a great tonic, which can strengthen Qi and blood. Eating ginseng after practicing Qigong is equivalent to eating tonics. It will strengthen your physique and lay the foundation for the next step of cultivation."

   "How much is appropriate to eat, how many sticks a day?"

   "How much to eat depends on your own situation. You can eat less at the beginning. After all, this food is different from carrots." Wang An said with a smile.

   "Come on." Li Xinzhu carefully put away the notebook.

"gone."

   Just when Wang An got in the car and was about to leave, Lu Xiangyi called and asked him to stay for another day, saying that Xu Qi was coming to visit him and had something important to tell him.

  Wang An stayed for another day. The next morning, Lu Xiangyi and Xu Qi came to Wang An's residence together. Xu Qi's face seemed to have returned to normal, and the scar on his neck was gone.

   "The body has recovered?"

   "It's recovered, thank you." Xu Qi said.

   "Drink tea."

   "Yesterday Xiangyi called me and said that Mr. was inquiring about the Special Operations Team of the Special Affairs Bureau. I have inquired about it. The Special Operations Team is indeed focusing on studying a few people, including Mr. and using Mr. as the imaginary enemy to formulate multiple sets of combat plans." Xu Qi didn't beat around the bush, Wang An was slightly taken aback by his words.

   "We're still being targeted." Wang An's reaction was calm.

   "Mr. Bagan and his party made some people sleepless, and the previous Cui Daochang incident was a painful lesson." Xu Qi said.

   "Then what are they going to do with me?" Wang An said with a smile.

   "According to my experience, they will first send someone to contact you to judge your position and determine your attitude. They should have known about the relationship between you and the Lu family, and the status of the consultant of the Special Affairs Bureau will not be of much use to them. Their handling method depends on your attitude, sir. Recruiting is the first plan.

  But no matter what their attitude is, sir is kind to me, so I will naturally try my best to help him. In addition, as far as I know, two people in the special operations team took Chidan, and the side effects were extremely low. "

   "That is to say, they have developed true energy?"

   "The probability is more than 50 percent." Xu Qi said.

   "This is preparation and technology walking on two legs." Wang An smiled and took a sip of tea.

   "Taking Chidan is like swallowing a fire dragon, the medicine is as powerful as fire, and the five internal organs are refined through refining. It needs external force to take away the scorching heat, and then infiltrate the five internal organs with medicine, and the yin and yang will meet, so that there is a slight possibility of true qi being born.

  The three treasures that Chen Xifeng got that day, one of them is the prescription of Chi Dan.

  The second is to record the method of taking Chidan, using Chidan as a medicine to guide the practice of true qi, and the way of true qi circulation.

  The third is the clay sculpture Buddha, which should be recorded as a profound method of controlling true energy. "

  Wang An Jiang Chi Dan just talked about it, and his words made both Xu Qi and Lu Xiangyi stunned.

  They stared blankly at Wang An. What this means is that Wang An has seen those three treasures, and is familiar with the usage of those treasures, and has done some research.

   "You, have you seen those three things?"

   "If you have seen one of them, you can roughly figure out what its use is through the other two." The picture in Wang An's hand serves as a link between the past and the future.

  After practicing and comprehending during this period of time, Wang An's knowledge and understanding have also improved a lot.

  Many people are still studying true qi, and when they were thinking about how to cultivate true qi, he had already opened up the second vein of Ren and Du, and seventy-eight out of ten of the twelve orthodox scriptures, and completed the condensation of true qi.

  Before anyone else entered the room, he was already standing on the third floor. Before others could find the way up the mountain, he was already halfway up the mountain.

   It is already very remarkable to be one step ahead in practice, and he no longer knows how many steps ahead.

  A considerable part of the road ahead of him is long but clear; behind him, looking back, there is no one coming.

   Alone, alone.
