Chapter 99 : pointing
Aiya, uncle, you are really interesting! Fishing was fun, but it didn\'t matter if he ate fish or not. He was really relaxed! Just like how some people pursue a comfortable life and do whatever they want, don\'t you think so?
"You\'re leaving just like that?" I saw that you had packed your things, so I was just asking.
The old man clasped his hands behind his back and said,"I was going to leave, but since you came, I felt that I could stay a little longer." This disciple of Old Man Wang is really not bad!"
"Do you know my master?" I asked cautiously.
" That\'s right." The old man smiled." Zhengyang Hand King Tiangang is a silly old man who has been trapped by a promise for more than 20 years." As soon as you get close, that hot smell wafts over. Other than the Zhengyang Art, there won\'t be a second art in Jiang City that has this smell."
Using his nose to sniff out the cultivation technique? This was too amazing! I was shocked, but seeing how much the old uncle respected my master, my vigilance dropped a little. I smiled." Uncle, you\'re also an ancient martial artist. No wonder the fishing was so magical."
The old man\'s eyes lit up." Come closer. Give me your left hand."
I didn\'t think much about it and walked over to him with my left hand. The old man placed two fingers on my pulse and closed his eyes as if he was deep in thought. After a quarter of an hour or so, he retracted his finger and said with emotion,"Old Man Wang has really taken in a good disciple this time!" He\'s so powerful at such a young age. With a single move from the conception and governor meridians, he\'s already a mystic realm expert. I can\'t help but be impressed by his eyesight!"
I thought about the relationship between the uncle and Master. From their attitude, they should be friends and not enemies. Actually, I was wrong. This old man was once the only ancient martial art practitioner in Jiangcheng City or even the entire province who could compete with Wang Tiangang. But now that he was blind, his past glory had turned into helplessness and loneliness. But now, he seemed to have found a new hope, and that was me. He seemed to be certain that I would become an expert that surpassed Master. This kind of trust made me feel pressured, but it was more of a motivation. I decided not to let him down. I worked hard to cultivate and constantly break through. Because I knew that only by constantly moving forward could I respond to this heavy trust and expectation. Heh, the old uncle had already gotten over it and would no longer fight with his old rival. Just like releasing a fish into the water, we no longer care about who is stronger or weaker. The old uncle now understood the importance of letting go. Those who were stronger and weaker, and those who sparred with each other were just fleeting clouds. You see, although the old man is blind, he can see the world with his heart. Sometimes, he can see the essence of things better.
"Uncle, do you have a way to help me connect the Conception Vessel and Governor Vessel?" Xu Qing was a little dumbfounded. The old man smiled and shook his head." If I help you connect your Conception Vessel and Governor Vessel, I\'m afraid I won\'t be able to enjoy fishing anymore." Xu Qing was disappointed. He knew that it was extremely taxing to help people connect the Conception and Governor Meridians. Moreover, from what the uncle said, it seemed that it would affect their lifespan. It seemed that he had been too rash.
The old man picked up the empty fish basket and slowly walked away with his back facing Xu Qing. After walking for nearly ten meters, he suddenly stopped and said," Young man, I\'ll give you a word of advice. Don\'t sharpen the awl when you sharpen the sword. Sharpen the awl into a small profit." Xu Qing looked at the old man\'s departing figure with a blank expression. He shook his head, turned around, and jumped into the water. He continued to swim clumsily toward the bank.
When he swam to the bank, Xu Qing found that the water was crowded with people. The number of people swimming was several times more than before. Colorful life balloons and life blankets floated on the surface of the water like beautiful duckweed. Swimming was indeed very exhausting. He was already thirsty, but he didn\'t dare to drink water. Xu Qing now had a deep understanding. He found a slope by the shore and sat down, half of his body still submerged in the water. He was still thinking about the old man\'s words,"Don\'t sharpen the awl when you sharpen the sword, sharpen the awl into a small profit." He knew that these words came from Yuan Zhen\'s "Going Out" in the Tang Dynasty. It meant to be ambitious and not be trapped by the small benefits in front of you. What he didn\'t understand was, what did this have to do with connecting the conception and governor vessels?
"Are you thirsty?" A bottle of Nongfu Spring suddenly appeared in front of him. Zhu Dan stood behind him with a smile. Xu Qing took the bottle of mineral water and thanked him. He opened the cap and drank it in one gulp. "Why aren\'t you swimming anymore?" Zhu Dan asked with a smile. On a hot summer day, Xu Qing put down the empty mineral water bottle and said with a smile,"Sigh, I\'ve been soaking in the water all this time. I feel like I\'m about to become a steamed bun." I really envy those who can only swim."
Zhu Dan covered her mouth and laughed." We still have two hours before we gather. Why don\'t we go rowing?"
Xu Qing naturally couldn\'t refuse the beauty\'s invitation. Moreover, Zhu Dan was wearing a swimsuit, looking extremely beautiful. He nodded in agreement, and the two of them walked side by side to the boat rental office.
It was a fair price to charge 20 yuan per hour for a small iron boat. Zhu Dan took out the plastic bag with the money and smiled. She handed the money to the staff and the two of them boarded the boat.
The task of rowing the boat was naturally given to Xu Qing. Zhu Dan leisurely used her fingertips to gently stroke the water beside the boat. The two of them chatted as they rowed, and time flew by. After more than an hour, Xu Qing began to steer the boat back.
At this moment, there was a sudden splash on the water beside the boat. A big carp jumped out of the water, head above and tail below. He was about to fall into the water again. Xu Qing\'s eyes were sharp and his hands were fast. He reached out with his left palm and quickly scooped it back. The big carp fell into the cabin with a thud. After jumping around twice, its head was stepped on by a bare foot, and it no longer had the strength to struggle.
"Wow, what a big fish!" Zhu Dan shouted excitedly, completely ignoring the fish scales on the tip of her nose.
Xu Qing smiled and let go of his foot." This fish is for you to make soup. I\'ll put it in a bag when we get ashore."
Zhu Dan clapped her hands and smiled." That\'s great. I was just worried that I didn\'t get any fish today." I usually like fish soup the most."
" Fish soup is good for beauty, especially carp soup," Xu Qing said." It\'s also plump..." He suddenly realized something was wrong and quickly swallowed the word " chest ".
Zhu Dan seemed to have not recovered from her excitement and continued to touch the big carp. Unfortunately, the fish had gradually lost its vitality, and even its eyes had begun to turn white. Xu Qing stood by the reservoir with his mouth wide open and his face full of helplessness. Although the fish in the reservoir were not domesticated, they were not easily caught. The rules here were that if the water was clear, there would be no fish, and if there were no fish, the water would die. Fishing would not affect the ecological balance in the water. For example, the carp that Xu Qing caught could be handled by himself. Others would only praise his good luck when they saw it.
After parking the boat, Xu Qing gently hooked the carp\'s gills with his index finger and easily went ashore. He and Zhu Dan returned the deposit together and also asked for a bag to store the fish. The people who rented the boats looked at them and clicked their tongues in wonder. They only said that the two of them were lucky.
Xu Qing held the fish, his heart filled with joy. He thought that this luck might be the gift of life, allowing him to have such a special harvest on this beautiful day. And this harvest would become a part of his and Zhu Dan\'s beautiful memories.
