Chapter 395: The Power of the Dao
Seeing that the sharp blade of the broken knife was about to pierce Ma Yuwen's body. A red body suddenly stood in front of her. Ma Yuwen covered her mouth, looking at the red figure that was gradually falling in front of her, her heart tugged suddenly. Then she threw herself next to Chihuo, who had fallen to the ground, crying and shouting while pinching his clothes, and the whole person couldn't cry anymore. This change made everyone in the room stand stiff over there, Xu Minghao's chest seemed to have been hit by a hammer, and his feet seemed to be bound by chains, so he couldn't move his feet. He took a big breath of air, then looked at the red fire lying in a pool of blood. Suddenly, he let out a cold snort: "Ning Wei, this is the good thing you did." ”
Bi Quail didn't expect Dongfang Jin to be so vicious and attack a person who didn't know martial arts. She listened to Xu Minghao's tone, and her resentment with him became deeper and deeper, and this time it seemed that it could not be resolved. She glared at Dongfang Jin fiercely, and then suddenly came to Yan Li's side and clicked on his acupoint, and then grabbed his collar and was about to go out. Lin Mu hurriedly blocked her way, but Bi Ju didn't look at him, his eyes stared at Xu Minghao the whole time, and at the same time slapped a palm at Lin Mu with all his might, this palm collected the nine yin and evil true qi of the Nine Shadows, and Lin Mu, who was hit by this palm, felt that his body was hit by layers of mountains, and this huge weight made him unable to stand at all. He also fell to the ground with a pop. Bi Quail grabbed Yan Li, and disappeared into the house after a while. And Dongfang Jin also escaped from the hungry noodle restaurant in the aftermath.
Xu Minghao only came back to his senses at this time, although he was still angry, but saving people at the moment was the most important thing, he called 120 first, and then moved the red fire at the door and the rain under the eaves outside into the house. The rain was still unconscious, but he was breathing evenly, and although he was moaning incessantly, the situation should be under control. And the situation on Chihuo's side is not optimistic. He had spent too much true qi to resist termites before, and he completely used his body to block it just now, but fortunately, his sense of self-protection was relatively strong, and although the true qi in his body was weak, he still opened them all to block the broken knife. It's just that the speed of the broken knife is too fast, and the force is also very strong. The right side of his chest was pierced. Lin Mu regained his freedom after Bi Quail left, he stepped forward with an arrow step to protect Chihuo's heart with his Vajra True Qi, and then used Xue Bing to stop the bleeding for him, but he was seriously injured and still needed to be sent to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
Ma Yuwen sat slumped beside him, and her whole person was almost stupid. Xu Minghao couldn't bear to pull her outside, and at the same time said to Lin Mu: "Xiao Linzi, take care of them, the ambulance will arrive soon." ”
When the two came to the door, Xu Minghao patted her shoulder and kept saying, "You don't have a psychological burden, I don't blame you for this." “
Ma Yuwen didn't speak, just shook her head desperately, and tears kept hitting the ground as her head shook. Xu Minghao sighed: "Girl, you have to cheer me up, Chihuo still needs you to take care of it." ”
"Yes. Ma Yuwen finally spoke: "I will definitely take care of him." ”
While talking, the ambulance roared in, and after Xu Minghao and Lin Mu helped the medical staff carry the two injured people into the car, they also followed them to the hospital. In the hospital, after Luo Xinghe learned the news of Chihuo's injury, he immediately arranged for the police to arrive at the hospital, and Chihuo was one of the generals who would deal with Long Jiu in the future. This time it was Director Wu Keyong of the Chengdu Municipal Bureau, although he usually did administrative and logistics work, but this time Luo Xinghe chose him as a member of the dragon slaying operation in Chengdu, mainly because he had also been in the Five Elements before and had an understanding of the Five Elements.
When Wu Keyong saw Chihuo lying on the hospital bed inhaling oxygen and motionless, he couldn't help but feel a pang of distress in his heart, such a young soldier was injured on the front line is something that all police workers do not want to see. Before coming, he had already met Xu Minghao through photos, and in the house, he soon saw the real person, he came to Xu Minghao, who was constantly comforting Ma Yuwen, and saluted him: "Comrade Xuanshui, Wu Keyong from Chengdu will report to you." ”
Xu Minghao was stunned for a moment, quickly returned a salute, and then stretched out his hand to hold Director Wu: "Director Wu, I'm just a small soldier, you are too grand." Come, sit. Xu Minghao beckoned Wu Keyong to sit down, and then told him about what happened today, Wu Keyong frowned after listening: "This place is not far from the west, and the people of Fuxi rushed here from the western capital, and they must be looking for something related to the treasure." In other words, this strict establishment is the key to this case. ”
"Yes, that's exactly what I do. Xu Minghao has always had a sense of intimacy in his heart since he saw Yan Li, but he doesn't know where this intimacy comes from: "They won't come to find such a person for no reason, but now that Yan Li has been arrested by them, I have lost my skills, and I am afraid that it will be a little difficult to track them down." ”
Wu Keyong's brows furrowed even tighter, martial artists are an extremely scarce resource for the police, and there are not many martial artists in Chengdu, even if there are, he does not dare to inform him of this operation, so this is also a headache for him. Unexpectedly, Xu Minghao waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'll go and investigate Yan Li's side, and I'm sure I'll bring him back." It's just Director Wu... ”
Xu Minghao paused when he said this, he looked at Wu Keyong, and he didn't know if he was trustworthy. Wu Keyong saw him sweeping over him, and immediately understood what he meant, he patted his chest and said, "Comrade Xuanshui, if you have any requests, I will definitely fully cooperate with you." ”
"Actually, it's nothing, just help me take good care of them. Xu Minghao pointed to the red fire on the hospital bed, and then pointed to Ma Yuwen and Lin Mu beside him. Lin Mu stood up a little excitedly and said, "Brother Xu, I'll go with you." You won't be able to do it for the time being, so you go alone, I'm afraid you'll be in danger. ”
"Phew!" Xu Minghao quenched at him and said, "You give me a good job here to protect the eldest lady and Chihuo." I don't feel at ease about you, the wounded, with Director Wu in charge, I can rest easy. ”
As soon as Wu Keyong heard that this was the case, he immediately solemnly promised: "Comrade Xuanshui, if you put ten thousand hearts, I promise to protect them without leaking." ”
"Lao Xu, you... No, it doesn't work. Ma Yuwen was very worried about him, after all, the other party was a ruthless person, and with Xu Minghao's current body, he was really a little reluctant.
"Rest assured. Xu Minghao waved his hand, and then slapped his hands on Lin Mu and Ma Yuwen respectively: "Xiao Linzi, your task is to protect the eldest lady for me." Miss, in addition to taking care of Chihuo, your task is to take the time to help me track down Yan Li's whereabouts. ”
"Don't worry!" both replied at the same time. Looking at their faces that changed from immaturity to maturity, Xu Minghao suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart. He glanced at the unconscious Chihuo again, and then bowed down to his ear and said, "Chihuo, you kid have to give me a good treat, I will definitely help you avenge this revenge!" After speaking, he said to Wu Keyong again: "Director Wu, this place will be handed over to you, for the sake of insurance, I will go to find a foreign aid again." ”
"Who else do you know here?" Lin Mu had already vaguely guessed who the foreign aid he was talking about, and he couldn't help but be a little nervous.
"Hey, hey. Xu Minghao smiled mysteriously, and then walked out of the ward, he took out his mobile phone and called Xu Yinyue: "Yinyue... ”
"Husband... At this time, Xu Yinyue and Huangfu were looking for traces of the Oriental Comet in Shanghai, and this person was like he had never been here, and he couldn't touch any traces. Just when she was very depressed, Xu Minghao called and excited her.
"Good. Listening to the gentle voice on the other end of the phone, Xu Minghao only felt that the recent grievances had been filled in, and he couldn't help asking, "Are you still looking for Dongfang Comet?"
"Yes, it's like she's evaporated from the world, and there's no trace of her. Xu Yinyue said a little frustratedly.
"You have to watch out for her. Her nine-tailed illusion is extraordinary, and it will create illusions for people... Speaking of this, Xu Minghao suddenly stopped, speaking of illusion, isn't this yin and yang gossip array set up by Bi Quail today also an illusion. He seemed to have some epiphany and said: "If you fall into her illusion, you must not panic, calm down and find a way to break the illusion." ”
Hearing that he cared so much about herself, Xu Yinyue's heart was sweeter than eating honey, and she couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't worry, I have the secret to breaking the illusion array." By the way, is something happening to you over there?" Although Xu Yinyue has not been with Xu Minghao for a long time, she knows that he is a person who will not call if there is nothing important, and today's call must be related to what he has encountered recently.
"It's worthy of being my daughter-in-law, I'm in Chengdu now, Chihuo is injured, Lin Mu's injury is not complete, I want Erin to help Lin Mu protect the eldest lady. ”
"No problem. Xu Yinyue agreed very happily, but also put forward some of her own thoughts: "You have to grasp the balance between you and the eldest lady." ”
"Hey, what are you thinking, that's my sister. Although Xu Minghao answered her strongly, but a layer of fine sweat broke out on her back, judging from Ma Yuwen's recent performance, this girl really has her own heart, hey, this is also a headache.
"Hehe, just pay attention to yourself. At the last moment, Xu Yinyue's voice returned to calm and asked, "Do you want me to come over to protect you?"
"No, I don't. A cold light flashed in Xu Minghao's eyes: "I can handle it." “
Not long after hanging up the phone, Xu Minghao saw Erin, at this time she had almost recovered, but her body was still a little weaker than before, but it was still no problem to take care of people. Xu Minghao's gaze swept over them, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, now I'm all old, weak, sick and disabled, what can I do when I encounter a strong enemy." ”
The faces of the three of them suddenly burst into bruises, and they blasted him out, but he didn't care, he decided to go back to the hungry noodle restaurant to look for some clues. He took a taxi alone and rushed to the hungry noodle restaurant. After tossing for most of the day, it was already dark at this time, and the noodle shop was collected by the police on the spot after they left, and a seal was put on the door. Xu Minghao came to the door of the noodle restaurant and touched the wooden door that had been painted, but he didn't expect that this door was the only thing that still existed, and the wood products inside had already been eaten by termites. Xu Minghao touched the debris all over the ground, and said silently in his heart: "There is still a difference between this Yin and Yang Bagua Array and Dongfang Comet's Nine-Tailed Phantom God Array, this is a combination of virtual and real, but the Nine-Tailed Phantom God Array is illusory from beginning to end. Hey, who came up with such a mysterious formation? ”
Just when he was looking all over the house, there was a trembling sound at the door, it was the sound of crutches hitting the ground, it stands to reason that ordinary old people will not make any sound with crutches, but the sound outside is strong and powerful, which is by no means what ordinary old people can make, and this is the time for dinner, how can there be an old man walking here. Could it be that the lives of the elderly are a few hours earlier than that of the young people? Xu Minghao walked out of the room with doubts, and saw an old man with gray hair and a hunched back standing at the door. The moonlight shone on his face, shining on the spots on his face clearly, and the old man's eyes were squinted, and he didn't know if he couldn't see it, or if he was tired and wanted to sleep. Xu Minghao stepped forward and asked politely and carefully, "Old man, where are you going?"
I saw that the white-haired old man raised his head slightly, but his eyes did not open, and his face then turned to the hungry noodle restaurant behind Xu Minghao, and then asked, "Isn't the noodle restaurant open today?"
When he spoke, he was babbling, and it didn't sound very clear, but Xu Minghao felt a flexible true qi running from his voice. This feeling of true anger was somewhat similar to Yan Li's, he couldn't help but glance at the old man more, and then said, "I ate something at noon today, and the boss was arrested." ”
"Oh?" the old man groaned paradoxically, and then at a certain moment, Xu Minghao seemed to be able to see his eyes opened, shooting out two imperceptible lights from it, Xu Minghao's heart trembled for no reason, he stared at the old man in front of him with 120,000 points of energy, the old man's crutches clicked forward, Xu Minghao's whole person seemed to be trapped in the ocean, floating messily, and the feeling of not being able to touch the land made him almost faint. Just when he was very uncomfortable, the old man suddenly sighed, and saw him put the cane back at his feet and said, "You... Interesting and interesting. ”
At this time, Xu Minghao seemed to have returned to land, his feet regained strength, but at the same time, he reluctantly stood in place, his hands kept wiping the sweat that kept dripping: "Old... Old-timer... You are ... Xu Minghao called him an old-timer because his limp just now made him realize that this person not only knows martial arts, but also has unfathomable strength in martial arts.
The old man walked slowly to the door of the noodle shop, then glanced inside, and then sniffed deeply with his nose: "Yin and Yang Bagua Array, I didn't expect to see this formation after so many years, it's really embarrassing." ”
I'll go, this old man can, just smell it with his nose and know what's going on. In addition to his secret admiration, Xu Minghao was more curious about this old man, who was he sacred? The old man turned his head to look at Xu Minghao and said again, "Where was Yan Li caught?"
Xu Minghao spread his hands and expressed his helplessness: "I don't know." ”
"What are you doing here?" Although the old man's eyes were closed, he seemed to be able to capture Xu Minghao's location in real time, and his every move seemed to be under his control.
Xu Minghao was much calmer than before this time, and the sweat on his body was almost finished, and he told the old man about the ins and outs of today and why he came here. After hearing this, the old man kept stroking his beard, as if it was a very enjoyable thing: "Young man, I also know your physical condition, and it is fate for you and me to meet today, so it is better for me to give you the power of the Tao and get rid of this trouble for you." ”
Xu Minghao was surprised and puzzled and asked, "Can the power of the Dao really resolve the predicament in my body?" Also, why do you always want to help me?"
The old man still stroked his beard and said, "There is fate, there is fate, fate is indescribable." After speaking, the old man suddenly raised his crutches in the air and said, "Come, grab the other end." ”
Xu Minghao obediently stepped forward and grabbed the other end of the cane, only to hear the old man open his eyes suddenly, two white lights shot out of his eyeballs, which looked particularly scary, Xu Minghao was also taken aback, only to hear the old man continue: "Concentrate, don't be distracted." Xu Minghao obediently tightened his mind, and when a strong burning sensation was transmitted from the palm of his hand to his body, he couldn't help but let out a sigh, this pain was extremely refreshing. Although the whole process did not last long, Xu Minghao seemed to have gone through a thousand tribulations, and the whole person switched back and forth many times in drowsiness and sobriety, and what he saw in his eyes were runes that he had never seen before, and they flashed with the same silver light as Yan Li's body. The old man suddenly sighed, as if he had seen something unusual, only to see him shake his head, his brows suddenly wrinkled, only to hear him shout: "Oops!" Then the white light rose, lighting up the entire street, and Xu Minghao's body load was also extreme. Suddenly, the window of the family next door opened, and a basin of cold water was poured on the heads of the two of them, and then a woman scolded and shouted: "Why are we eating, you two are making shameless things, what are you calling nonsense!"
The old man and Xu Minghao obviously didn't expect such a thing, they suddenly looked at each other and smiled, and then the old man withdrew his crutches and said breathlessly: "Okay, I have opened the power of the Dao in your body, and you can explore the rest by yourself." ”
"Old man, you... Xu Minghao didn't expect that after working for so long, this old man actually taught himself the power of the Dao, and he was so moved that he was about to cry.
