Chapter 65: Breakthrough of three levels is imminent [Please vote and read] The old man was wearing tattered, patched coarse cloth clothes and worn straw sandals. His hands were rough and cracked, his joints were swollen, his complexion was dark, and his face was weather-beaten and covered with deep wrinkles. His eyes were cloudy and dim, revealing fatigue and helplessness. At first glance, the old man was just an ordinary country farmer who had been invaded by the "evil spirit", was weak and on the verge of death. There was nothing unusual except that the situation was a little critical. Speaking of which, the old man had obviously used some means to conceal his breath, and it was difficult for an ordinary doctor to find any clues by taking his pulse. However, the opponent's hiding could not escape Qiu Zhen's "eagle eyes and golden pupils". Qiu Zhen awakened his "primordial spirit and dharma body". If they were just meeting in person, he might not be able to see any clues for a while, but when he took the old man's pulse, the old man's identity as a cultivator became clear at a glance. "I met another immortal cultivator." Qiu Zhen secretly sighed in his heart. This was the third fellow practitioner he had met besides "Little Monk Kongyin" and "Master Yanshan".
Humans are social creatures and are good at sticking together for warmth. In today's world, the way of immortality is declining and those who practice it have become "demons and evil spirits" in the eyes of outsiders. They are in an awkward situation and should stick together for warmth. When he met a fellow cultivator face to face, Qiu Zhen was instinctively excited and happy, as if he had found a "kindred spirit". However, reason made him control his excitement. The reason is simple: people’s hearts are hidden. No matter what, he would not reveal his identity easily. At that moment, Qiu Zhen looked calm and defined his identity as "doctor" without any other thoughts. "Girl, your grandfather has a strong demonic aura." The young woman was a little panicked when she heard this, but her expression remained calm and her tone was anxious: "Please help me, little doctor." The skinny old man raised his eyelids, looking awkward and flustered like an old country farmer, with a listless expression, as if he didn't even have the energy to speak. "And he's pretending to be very good." Qiu Zhen secretly complained in his heart, but appeared to be doing his job in a businesslike manner. "Come, I'll give your grandfather an acupuncture treatment." Immediately, Qiu Zhen asked the young woman to take off the old man's clothes, take out a silver needle, and use the [Taiyi Exorcism Needle] on him. After acupuncture, wisps of black gas emerged from the old man's body. The effect is quite good. However, this is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution. Unlike ordinary mortals, as long as the "evil spirit" is driven away, the evil thoughts will become like duckweed without water and they will surely die. The old man is a cultivator, and the evil thoughts are hidden in his sea of consciousness. It is useless to drive away the evil spirit from him. If the old man cannot kill the evil with his sword of wisdom, the evil thoughts will resurface. Not long after.
"Girl, take your grandfather back to rest." "Thank you, little miracle doctor." Under the leadership of Zhao Dou, the grandfather and grandson left with many thanks. Qiu Zhen watched the grandfather and grandson leave, feeling emotional. In fact, he has the ability to help the old man eliminate the evil thoughts, but it is inconvenient. Either his identity as a cultivator will be exposed, or the identity of the other party who is also practicing will be exposed. Without knowing the details, neither situation will be good. Doctors have a kind heart, but that has its limits. It is important to protect yourself. Qiu Zhen shook his head and didn't think much about it. He just treated it as an ordinary free clinic and didn't take it seriously. He had no intention of contacting this grandfather and grandson. Anyway, he helped the old man solve his urgent problem. Whether he could suppress the evil thoughts depended on his own luck. The right thing to do is to provide free medical treatment well and practice well. Before I knew it, half a month passed. Just as Manager Liu said, within a few days, Yaowang Valley sent people to help Qingmu City. Among them, there were quite a few disciples of Yaowang Valley who knew the [Taiyi Exorcism Acupuncture], which greatly alleviated the pressure on Manager Liu and Doctor Li, making them both feel relieved. Qiu Zhen felt a little regretful about this. He had been doing a lot of exorcisms these days, but the number of patients suspected of having "evil thoughts" had obviously decreased a lot. This is Manager Liu "taking care" of him, fearing that he would get tired. but Qiu Zhen really had no words to express his pain, but he was not tired at all. At his age, full of vigor and vitality, he would burst out seven or eight times a day to sprinkle water and enjoyed it. Fortunately, after more than half a month of free clinics, he gained quite a lot. As the sky gradually darkened and he stopped seeing patients, Qiu Zhen lay on the recliner, resting leisurely, his mind sinking into the sea of consciousness. The soul Qiu Zhen was emitting golden light, as holy and godly as if he was the most noble and honorable body in the world. The golden light was more condensed and sacred than before. This is the result of Qiu Zhen's free medical treatment, exorcism, treatment of diseases, and rescue of disaster victims. In this spiritual practice world, the orthodox talisman tradition has declined, and one can no longer become an immortal by accumulating merits and virtues. However, doing good deeds is itself a part of cultivating "sexual merit". Doing more good deeds, clearing thoughts, integrating knowledge and action, and your mind and thoughts will become increasingly powerful and pure. Apart from this, the greatest gain is in the practice of “life skills”. [The third level of Medicine King Five Animal Play, expected to be mastered in 21 days] "I will soon be able to break through to the third level of the Five Animal Play." Qiu Zhen was in a good mood. Today, he was on duty and exorcised evil spirits for two patients who were "possessed by evil thoughts" and gained two small balls of "spiritual essence". If nothing unexpected happens, if he goes back tonight and refines two small balls of "spiritual essence", he will be able to break through in one fell swoop and become a third-level martial artist. In just half a year, he went from being an apprentice in a medicine shop to breaking through three levels in one fell swoop. This speed of practice is probably stronger than that of the legendary genius with the best aptitude. "Sir, he's here again." While Qiu Zhen was thinking, Bai Zhu, who was lying beside him, muttered something in a low voice. As soon as he finished speaking, a disciple of Medicine King Valley dressed in green came towards him from outside the house. He was about the same age as Qiu Zhen, but his skills were higher than Qiu Zhen's. He had strong blood and energy, was handsome, had fair skin, and had extraordinary conversation. At first glance, he was obviously a rich young man from an extraordinary family. He must have great talent as he has been practicing martial arts since he was young, which is why he has such achievements.
This person's name is Hua Yu, and he is a disciple from Yaowang Valley who came to provide assistance these days. Perhaps because they are of similar age, he and Qiu Zhen get along quite well. The two of them have become quite familiar with each other these days and often visit each other. "Manager Liu said that the victims of natural disasters have almost arrived one after another, and there will be fewer patients in the future. We are finally done." Huayu touched Baizhu's smooth hair: "Brother Qiu, how about we go to the restaurant tonight?" "Row." Although Qiu Zhen was eager to return home and make a breakthrough, he did not refuse normal interpersonal interactions. Anyway, there's no rush. So, the two of them said goodbye to Manager Liu and left work, then went straight to the best restaurant in the city and set up a table. After some toasts, Qiu Zhen returned happily with Bai Zhu. After leaving the city, he walked along the official road for a while, then turned into a shortcut along a path in the field, used his skills, and returned straight away. Qiuzhen Valley is twenty or thirty miles away from Qingmu City and is considered a remote suburb. After more than half a month, he traveled back and forth between the two places every day and became familiar with the route, finding the shortest way. "Swish, swish, swish~" Qiu Zhen has mastered the [Xunfeng Fairy Deer Tendon] from the [Five Animal Play of Gods and Demons], and his leg strength is amazing, and his speed is astonishing. The whole person was like a shadow, flying through the fields and mountains. After galloping for about ten miles, Qiu Zhen entered the sparsely populated hills in the suburbs. Not long after he entered the mountain, Qiu Zhen suddenly stopped on a whim, looked around with a cold expression: "Who?" "Little Doctor Qiu is very alert." As he was speaking, a series of rustling sounds were heard in the woods. Soon, two figures appeared in front of Qiu Zhen. An old man and a middle-aged man. Qiu Zhen didn't know the middle-aged man, he looked very unfamiliar, but he recognized the old man in tattered linen clothes at a glance. "It's you?" Qiu Zhen was surprised because the old man in front of him was exactly the "immortal cultivator" who had asked him to exorcise evil spirits in the pharmacy that day. More than ten days later, the other party took the initiative to find him again. "I wonder what important matter the old man is looking for me for?" (End of this chapter)
