A young man with sad eyes patted his back to regulate his breath .
“Master, do you want to take a break? Leave everything here to me . I’ll report the progress to you,” the young man gently said .
“I’m fine . I’ve had this condition for decades . I want to stay here for a bit longer,” the old man said .
“Let me help you sit down,” the young man said .
The old man kept coughing like a candle in the wind . The young man was really concerned that his master would die due to fierce coughing .
The old man didn’t stop coughing after he sat down . The young man sat next to him . A moment later, a middle-aged man came out of the house with a bowl of decoction, which had a stimulating smell .
“Master, it’s time to take some decoction,” the middle-aged man said .
The old man picked up the bowl and drank the decoction . His cough seemed to be better afterward .
“Sort it out as soon as you can,” he said after a big sigh .
“He’s here,” the middle-aged man said without looking up .
Neither of them looked outside when they were talking . After a moment, someone knocked at the door .
“I’ll answer it . ” The young man went to open the door . A second young man came in . He looked thin, weak, and pale .
“Uncle,” the pale young man said .
“How is it?” the old man asked .
“I’ve arranged people to stay in Dao,” the pale young man said .
“Good,” the old man said . He started to cough again . “Make sure you follow our plan . ”
The pale young man agreed .
Zhou Wuyi was in Wang Yao’s clinic . He did some gentle exercises .
“I’m feeling well,” he said .
Following recent treatment sessions, his internal power was no longer in disorder . It also had changed its nature from abrupt to pure and neutral . He thanked the Taoism scripture he had been studying .
“The nature of your internal power is changing,” Wang Yao said .
“Yes, I can feel it,” Zhou Wuyi said .
“The change is good,” Wang Yao said .
While they were taking, someone else came to the clinic . It was Sun Yunsheng . He came with Mr . Lin .
“Um?” Mr . Lin looked surprised when he saw Zhou Wuyi .
“It’s you!” Zhou Wuyi was equally surprised to bump into Mr . Lin in the clinic .
“You know each other?” Wang Yao asked .
“Yes, we’ve known each other for over 20 years,” Zhou Wuyi said with a smile .
“Master Zhou,” Mr . Lin said .
Master?
Sun Yunsheng was also surprised .
“Hha . Don’t call me master . I can’t believe it’s been so many years! You are getting old, too,” Zhou Wuyi said with a sigh .
“Yeah, everyone gets old . May I ask what you are here for?” Mr . Lin asked .
“I had a bad injury . Dr . Wang has been treating me,” Zhou Wuyi replied .
“I see,” Mr . Lin said .
The two old friends had a bit of chat before Zhou Wuyi and Zhou Xiong left the clinic .
“Uncle, you know him?” Zhou Xiong asked .
“Yes, but I haven’t seen him for about 20 years . He was much younger then . He used to learn Kung Fu in Cangzhou,” Zhou Wuyi said .
“Learn Kung Fu?” Zhou Xiong asked .
“Yes, he’s very gifted . I taught him Kung Fu,” Zhou Wuyi said .
Neither Zhou Wuyi nor Mr . Lin expected to bump into each other under such a circumstance .
“It’s been over 20 years . I was in my 50s at that time, but I had endless energy, unlike now . Time flies . Two decade passed in a blink of the eye,” Zhou Wuyi said with a sigh . “The young man coming to the clinic with him is the same one you mentioned last time?”
“Yes, his father is a famous billionaire in Dao,” Zhou Xiong said .
“I see,” Zhou Wuyi said .
He didn’t ask any further questions . He didn’t care about Sun Yunsheng and his father . He just bumped into an old acquaintance somewhere far from home .
The treatment session for Sun Yunsheng went smoothly . Wang Yao had expelled most of the Yang toxins from Sun Yunsheng’s body . There were not many toxins left . In addition, Wang Yao transferred his Qi into Sun Yunsheng’s body . Although the amount of Qi was small, it was extremely pure . It nurtured Sun Yunsheng’s body and improved his fundamental health .
“Thank you,” Sun Yunsheng said .
“I plan to go to Beijing in two days . Come back tomorrow . I’ll give you more decoctions,” Wang Yao said .
It was cold and windy that night . Dao was on the coast, so it was very windy .
Sun Yunsheng was looking through the window . He didn’t look well . The man with a poker face was standing next to him .
“They do have the guts,” Sun Zhengrong said . “Take action tonight . ”
“Sure . ” The man with poker face only said one word before leaving .
The cold, windy night soon turned rainy . The rain was red, and the wind was full of smell of blood .
Inside a building, an old man was sitting in the living room coughing . His face was as pale as a ghost . Standing next to him was a middle-aged man .
“Master, would you like to rest for a while?” the middle-aged man asked .
“I’m fine . Let’s wait and see . When you get old, you don’t need much sleep,” the old man said .
In a dark lane, a young man was running in fear . He had blood on his clothes and a knife in his hand . He was panicking . It was as if he had seen something really horrible .
While he was running, he suddenly felt stuffy in his chest and heavy in his legs . He couldn’t run anymore . He stopped and leaned on the wall to rest .
Crackling! He heard a sound behind him . He started to shake . It was as if he had heard a ghost crying . He wanted to run but was tripped over by something . He fell onto the ground .
“No!”
His scream echoed in the dark lane . Some lights in the buildings on both sides of the lane were still on . The residents of the building tried to see what was going on . They looked down but didn’t see anything .
It was midnight, when people felt most sleepy and the Ying energy accumulated . Wang Yao was brewing a decoction on Nanshan Hill . He put a leaf of frost grass into the pot . It was very quiet on the hill . The light was still on in the cottage .
The sun came out as usual the next morning .
Sun Zhengrong didn’t look happy . It seemed like he stayed up all night .
“Is that it?” Sun Zhengrong asked .
“Yes,” the man with poker face said . He was always succinct with his words .
“How about them?” Sun Zhengrong asked .
“We killed one,” the man with poker face said .
“Have you found where they stay?” Sun Zhengrong asked .
“Still looking,” the man with poker face said .
“You must find out where they stay today,” Sun Zhengrong said .
“Why did you come here again?” Tong Wei asked as she looked at the young man standing in front of her .
“I just wanted to see you . Have you considered what I said last time?” the young man asked .
“No,” Tong Wei replied .
“We can’t even be friends?” the young man asked with disappointment .
“No, I don’t want to be hurt again,” Tong Wei coldly said .
“I’m sorry,” the young man said .
“Stop saying sorry . I have to go now . ” Tong Wei turned around and left, leaving the young man standing in the wind .
“Wow, she’s really a stunner . No wonder you haven’t dated anyone all those years . So, she turned you down? Do you need my help?” a skinny man standing behind the young man quietly asked .
“No,” the young man said .
“All she needs is a glass of wine,” the skinny man said . “I guarantee she will change from a virgin into a…”
“Shut up!” the young man shouted .
“Are you upset? It seems you are really falling for her,” the skinny man said .
The young man didn’t say anything . He turned around and walked away .
“Do you want me to test her first?” The skinny man didn’t give up .
Whoosh! The young man suddenly walked back toward the skinny man and grabbed him by the neck .
“You really wanna try?” the young man asked .
“Err, don’t be so impulsive,” the skinny man said .
“Stay away from her,” the young man said .
“Humph!” The skinny man’s eyes were as cold as the weather .
A group of policeman came to the beach in Dao .
They received a call that someone found a headless body on the beach .
The forensic scientist did an autopsy immediately .
“What did you find?” Captain Ma was angry because Dao was a secure place . It had been a long time since the last malicious attack like this happened .
“Time of death was between 11 p . m . to midnight yesterday . The cause of death seems to be a deadly attack to the heart,” the forensic scientist said .
“To the heart?” Captain Ma asked with surprise .
“I think so,” the forensic scientist said .
“What happened to the head?” Captain Ma asked .
“I’m not sure . Maybe the murderer took it deliberately,” the forensic scientist said .
“Find the body’s identity as soon as possible,” Captain Ma demanded .
Inside a house in Dao, a middle-aged man was coughing . His face was very pale .
“Are you OK?” Sun Zhengrong asked .
“I’m fine,” the middle-aged man said . Ahem! Ahem!
“I’ll arrange someone to take you to Lianshan right now,” Sun Zhengrong said .
“No, who’s going to protect you if I’m not here?” This was the first time the man with poker face spoke that much .
“You can’t protect me when you are sick like this . Don’t worry about me,” Sun Zhengrong said .
Thirty minutes later, three luxurious cars left the garage of the house .
“Is he hurt?” Mr . Lin asked .
“No, someone took the bullet for him . I didn’t expect that bastard to become a Kung Fu master after so many years,” Sun Zhengrong said .
