Chapter 757: 757
Meanwhile, the aura and Qi he cultivated came with special healing effects . After he lowered the needle, Fangzheng clearly felt a wisp of his aura flow through the needle to the dead muscles and nerves in her cheek . Soon, the nerves came alive from stimulation . This process was much faster than using ordinary acupuncture therapy! It made an ailment that needed prolonged therapy much simpler to heal .

Although it was Fangzheng’s first time treating someone, the way he did things was as if he was an experienced Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner . He very easily completed the acupuncture process .
After he retracted his hands, the female boss’s face clearly looked less stiff and was a lot softer .
At that moment, Ma Guifen stood up .
When Fangzheng saw this, he hurriedly returned to his seat and dispelled his divine power .
Ma Guifen had no idea what Fangzheng had done, thinking that he had been sitting there all this while . With some anxiety and embarrassment, she said, “Master, I need to find my daughter . It’s been a day already . ”
Fangzheng frowned and said, “Patron, it’s still raining outside, and it’s dark . There aren’t many people on the street, so how are you going to find your daughter?”
When Ma Guifen heard that, she wore a look of helplessness . However, there was more of a look of persistence on her face a moment later . She shook her head . “I’m not sure either, but I have to ask someone . ”
“Patron Ma, didn’t Officer Chang already help you . Shouldn’t you be waiting at the police station?” At that moment, Red Boy asked the question on his mind .
Ma Guifen said with pangs of embarrassment, “Officer Chang is a nice man, but he’s a policeman . He can’t be dedicating his services only to me . Moments after we arrived at the police station, he received another mission and ran out to help . I thought about it . Since I’m able-bodied, I can’t keep troubling him and enjoy the fruits of his labor, right? So I thought of coming out to look for her myself… But after searching all day, I still had nothing to show for it, and then I encountered you once more . ”

“Dawu is huge . Searching aimlessly won’t work . ” Fangzheng looked at Ma Guifen and felt his heart pain for the elder . All parents love their children . To be able to see her child, she had crossed mountains, traveling across more than half of China to find her daughter . She had weathered the storms searching everywhere . What was it for? Wasn’t it just to take a glance at her daughter?
Ma Guifen said, “I know that, but I can’t just sit idly . I keep feeling that if I go out, walking around, looking around, or asking around, I’ll find her . ”
“Patron, you seem to be in a rush,” Red Boy said, puzzled . “Why? There’s plenty of time . Waiting one day should be fine . ”
Fangzheng rubbed his head and said, “Patron, if you insist on finding her, This Penniless Monk is willing to help you find her . However, you cannot continue being drenched by the rain . ”
“Ah? There’s no need for that! I can do it alone . ” Ma Guifen hurriedly shook her head . She obviously couldn’t bring herself to trouble others .
However, she could only agree after Fangzheng kept insisting .
When they left, Ma Guifen refused to take the umbrella which the female boss had given, but Fangzheng took it without any misgivings . He had helped treat her ailment, so it wasn’t wrong for him to take one or two umbrellas from her . Seeing Fangzheng take it, Ma Guifen couldn’t say anything . Therefore, Ma Guifen held one umbrella while Fangzheng and Red Boy shared another .
Ma Guifen had put away her original umbrella by now . It was in such terrible condition that trying to use it for protection from the rain served only as a trick for mental comfort .
As the trio walked the streets, they asked anyone they came across . Unfortunately, there weren’t many pedestrians outside, and all of them were in a rush . And since it was dark, they couldn’t even see the photograph clearly .

The trio searched for more than an hour after wandering all about . Ma Guifen clearly couldn’t keep up physically and as the weather grew colder, her fingers turned white from the cold . Even her face was a different shade of color . With that, Fangzheng persuaded her to take a rest . Ma Guifen also knew her own condition, but she didn’t wish to give up . She continued following Fangzheng and found a spot to hide from the rain .
Fangzheng signaled to Red Boy who nodded . Just as he was about to cast his powers, they saw a police car stop in front of them with its sirens blaring . The two policemen who ran out were surprisingly Officer Chang and the senior policeman .
“Granny Ma, why did you leave so quickly? You left me worried . Thankfully, a colleague saw you… Eh? Master, you are here too?” As Officer Chang grumbled, he caught sight of Fangzheng through the corner of his eye . He immediately exclaimed before feeling pleasantly surprised . Fangzheng’s various actions had shown him that Fangzheng was no ordinary monk . Being able to meet him again was naturally a good thing .
Fangzheng didn’t hide either, since it didn’t really matter . Even if he was asked about the net, all he needed to do was feign ignorance . Therefore, Fangzheng pressed his palms together . “Amitabha . This Penniless Monk happened to see Patron Ma . She insisted on looking for her daughter . Afraid that something might happen to her, This Penniless Monk accompanied her . ”
“There’s no need for that . I’ve found her,” Officer Chang said .
Ma Guifen originally didn’t wish to trouble the police, but when she heard that her daughter had been found, she immediately asked in excitement, “Have you really found her?”
“Yes . Deng Xiao, she’s an employee at a media company . We have already informed her to come pick you up, but she hasn’t gotten off work yet . She will come in a while . Why don’t you come to our police station for the time being?” Officer Chang said .
The moment Ma Guifen heard that, she exclaimed in excitement, “Yes, yes, yes! She mentioned that she worked at some so-and-so company . ” After confirming that it was her daughter, Ma Guifen didn’t reject the offer, eager to fly to the police station that very moment .
Officer Chang looked at Fangzheng . “Master, if you are worried, you can come with us . ”

Fangzheng pressed his palms together . “Amitabha . That will be for the best . ”
On the way, Red Boy asked Fangzheng in puzzlement, “Master, she has already found her daughter . Why do we need to follow?”
Fangzheng shook his head slightly and kept mum .
After they arrived at the police station, they waited on the seats outside . Officer Chang dragged Fangzheng with him to ask him all sorts of questions, hoping to get an answer . However, Fangzheng only smiled, leaving him helpless . He had no choice but to turn to Red Boy and ask, thinking that a child would be easier to speak to .
The result…
“Little guy, how did you know that someone would fall from the building . Why did you make such a huge net to catch us?” Officer Chang asked .
“My master can see the future, so he prepared ahead of time,” Red Boy said in all seriousness .
Officer Chang rolled his eyes when he heard that . See the future? That’s way too much…
“Alright . How did you leave the washroom? The window wasn’t that big,” Officer Chang asked .
“I helped my master fly out through the ventilator hole . It was very simple,” Red Boy looked adorably at Officer Chang and answered .
Officer Chang was left speechless . Why was this child full of nonsense?
At this moment, the senior policeman was amused . He asked with a laugh, “Little Immortal, what divine powers do you know?”
“Many . True Samadhi Fire, Casting Mountains and Upsetting the Sea…” Red Boy said .
“Haha! Little guy, have you been reading too much Journey to the West? What’s your name?” the senior policeman asked with a laugh .
Red Boy asked, “Are you asking about my Dharma name or my actual name?”
“Your actual name, obviously,” the senior officer said .
“My name is Red Boy . My father is the Bull Demon King and my mother is Princess Iron Fan,” Red Boy answered .
