"Grandpa, you said that this illness was caused by a hidden illness left by previous cultivation, what is going on?"

"When I entered the realm of selflessness, I was almost 50 years old. Later, he joined the Xuanyuan Dragon League and obtained a lot of network resources and cultivation resources. Still, since I'm older, it's very difficult for me to go further in martial arts. The Xuanyuan Dragon League has a cold pool deep in the Tianshan Mountains, which is said to contain the ice spirit of the Tianshan Mountains. If you can take out the Tianshan Ice Spirit from it, you can use it to wash the marrow and cut the bones, greatly increasing the possibility of entering the Transformation God Realm. At that time, I was also too obsessed with cultivation, hoping to speed up the process of cultivation by using the Heavenly Mountain Ice Spirit to wash the marrow and cut the bones. Now it seems that there is indeed some attention. Xiao Chufeng sighed.

"In fact, whether there is a Tianshan Ice Spirit in Hantan is just a legend, and it is uncertain in itself. So, I also went to look for it with the mentality of taking a gamble. When I descended to a depth of about two-thirds of the way to the cold pool, I could no longer bear the cold to the bone, and I had to return to shore immediately, but my internal organs were still badly damaged. Fortunately, Zhuge Qingxuan was not worried about me alone at that time, and accompanied me to Hantan. He is proficient in medical skills, and he will treat me in time, otherwise the consequences will be really unimaginable. Later, after more than half a year of conditioning, it seemed to have recovered on the surface, but in fact it left a hidden disease. Zhuge Qingxuan once said that if you want to be cured, you can only rely on miracles. ”

Zhuge Qingxuan once invited some Chinese medicine saints to consult Xiao Chufeng together, but the result was still helpless. In desperation, I searched through the classics and thought of a solution that was not a solution. The reason why it is said that it is not a solution is because it is not feasible at all.

As soon as Li Jingwei heard that there was a miracle, he immediately asked: "Grandpa, what does Old Man Zhuge mean by 'miracle'?"

"Hehe!" Old Man Xiao laughed when he heard this. Li Jingwei's performance at this moment is like a person in the water trying to grasp a life-saving straw. He also knew that this was because his grandson was concerned about his condition and was very anxious, so that he was in a mess from the moment he entered the ward.

He continued: "According to Zhuge Qingxuan, if you can find the blood of the Red Flame Snake, you may be able to use the Yang to neutralize and the Yin, and maybe a miracle will occur. However, he also said that the Red Flame Snake is an animal mentioned in the classics of the ancients, and no one has ever seen it, so it is uncertain whether it has it or not. ”

When Li Jingwei heard this, he was also a little frustrated, but he didn't give up, and asked again: "So if this snake does exist, where is it most likely to be found?"

Before that, Li Jingwei had never believed in miracles. Just like Edison's invention of the electric light, it was based on perseverance, and after failure, he tried hard, and after failure, he tried again, and it took more than 7,000 attempts to finally succeed. So, it's not like waiting for a miracle and then a miracle will happen. Just like a farmer planting the land, without the sweat and rain of summer, there will be no fruitful autumn.

But now, even one in 10,000 hope, he wants to try. It is the so-called rush to the doctor when you are sick. If there is a miracle, he also tries to make it happen.

According to Zhuge Qingxuan, if the Red Flame Snake really exists, it can probably only live in the cold pool of the Tianshan Mountains, and only the extremely cold land is suitable for this kind of snake to survive. ”

"Ah....", Li Jingwei was stunned for a moment, how could the things of the Yang grow in the Land of the Yin. However, it is also possible to think that all things are mutually reinforcing. "Grandpa, how can I find the Tianshan Hantan?"

Grandpa was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood Li Jingwei's thoughts, and couldn't help laughing, "Silly boy, do you want to go down to find the Red Flame Snake? Our grandfather and grandson are really able to toss, I want to find the Tianshan Ice Spirit, but you want to find the Red Flame Snake." However, put away your thoughts, you think that your grandfather has not thought about it, first of all, there is no way to go down to the bottom of the cold pool, and secondly, even if it goes down, there may not be a red flame snake. Moreover, although Hantan is not big, it is the size of a football field, and even if there is a red flame snake, it can be found so easily. Moreover, what is even more strange is that electronic devices cannot be used around the cold pool, so modern scientific and technological means are not used. ”

After a pause, Xiao Chufeng saw that Li Jingwei was still thinking seriously, so he said again: "The day before yesterday, Zhuge Qingxuan came to see me and told me that time was running out, and my grandfather was already very relieved that you could rush back to meet me before leaving." Alas, having said all this, I'm a little tired, you sit on the plane for more than ten hours, go and rest for a while. “

Li Jingwei responded, and hurriedly helped his grandfather adjust the hospital bed to ensure that his grandfather could lie down comfortably, and then quietly left the ward.

When he came to the end of the corridor and stood still, he thought for a while, then picked up his mobile phone and dialed Zhang Shaohua's number.

Zhang Shaohua is a disciple of Wudang who usually takes care of Zhang Longcheng's daily life, and his talent is also extremely high, so he usually lives with Zhang Longcheng. Li Jingwei also went to Wuwu with his grandfather during the Spring Festival the year before last, and met Zhang Shaohua, the two are not much different in age and have a common language, so they chatted more speculatively.

"Brother Zhang, I'm Jingwei. My grandfather is seriously ill and very anxious, can I trouble you to let the old fairy grandfather answer the phone, I want to ask some questions. ”

Old fairy grandfather is Li Jingwei's honorific title for Zhang Longcheng, he has been called so since the first meeting, and Zhang Longcheng is very happy to call him that. After the phone was connected, Li Jingwei didn't care about being polite, and asked straight to the point to see if he could talk to Zhang Longcheng on the phone.

"Jingwei, the head of your grandfather's affairs also knows, and yesterday I have entrusted Senior Brother Zhang Yuanpeng to visit Puhai in the past two days. The head has just finished a set of Tai Chi, you wait a minute, I'll report it. “

Zhang Shaohua was also anxious for Li Jingwei, and ran towards Zhang Longcheng with his mobile phone.

Zhang Longcheng heard that it was Li Jingwei's call, so he took the mobile phone.

"Old fairy grandfather, I'm Jingwei, I take the liberty to disturb you. ”

"Jingwei, are you currently in China?"

"Yes, I just came back this morning, and now I am with my grandfather in the hospital. ”

"Well, okay. I asked Zhuge Qingxuan, your grandfather's illness is very tricky. ”

Zhang Longcheng had learned from Zhuge Qingxuan that Xiao Chufeng's illness was basically incurable, but he didn't want to make Li Jingwei too desperate and sad, so he said that it was very tricky. In fact, there is a lot of comfort in this.

"Old fairy grandpa, I called you this time precisely for my grandfather's illness. I heard that the blood of the Red Flame Snake could cure my grandfather's illness, and I wanted to go to the Tianshan Mountains to find it. I know that only members of the Xuanyuan Dragon League can go down to the Tianshan Cold Pool, so I hope you can recommend me to join the Xuanyuan Dragon Alliance, and I want to go to the Tianyuan Mountain Cold Pool tomorrow, my grandfather's illness really can't wait. “

"Jingwei, I know what you said. However, the Red Flame Snake or something is just some ethereal thing, just a legend, and no one has seen it yet. You don't have to be impulsive. In addition, you may also know that only by stepping into the realm of selflessness can you be eligible to apply to join the Xuanyuan Dragon League. ”

Although he wanted to help Li Jingwei, he couldn't break the rules of the Xuanyuan Dragon League. For martial artists who practice Tai Chi, the selfless realm is a necessary condition for applying to join the Xuanyuan Dragon Alliance. If Li Jingwei did not reach this realm, Zhang Longcheng would not be able to make an exception for him. Moreover, it is not something that he can decide alone.

"Old Immortal Grandpa, I know the conditions for joining the Xuanyuan Dragon Alliance. Now, I have broken through into the realm of selflessness. Moreover, regardless of whether the Red Flame Snake exists in the cold pool of the Tianshan Mountains or not, I have to give it a try, otherwise I will feel guilty for the rest of my life. ”

Li Jingwei hurriedly explained that he already knew the conditions for joining the Xuanyuan Dragon League from his grandfather, so he asked to join. He knew that the old fairy grandfather was a very principled person, so he naturally didn't dare to make excessive demands.

"What? have you broken through to the realm of selflessness?" Zhang Longcheng was not sure if he had heard it wrong, and subconsciously asked.

"Yes. Li Jingwei replied with certainty, "I know that when I apply to join the Xuanyuan Dragon League, I still have to face a qualification review. But time is urgent, see if I can apply while going to the Tianshan Mountains. ”

"Jingwei, I know you have talent and potential, but I didn't expect you to get to this point so quickly. This is really a blessing for Huaxia Martial Dao!"

When Zhang Longcheng heard Li Jingwei's confirmation, he was immediately relieved. At the same time, he knew that Li Jingwei had already made up his mind, if he insisted on stopping him from going, I was afraid that he would have a knot in his heart in the future, and this knot might affect his future martial arts entry. After a little thought, I no longer dissuade it.

"It's okay if you go to Tianshan Hantan tomorrow, but presumably your grandfather also told you that it is extremely risky to go down to Tianshan Hantan, so you must be extra cautious. In addition, Zhang Yuanteng will go to Puhai to visit your grandfather tomorrow, I will call him later, and let him accompany you. “

When Li Jingwei heard this, he was very moved, and said respectfully: "Old fairy grandfather, thank you!"

Zhang Yuanteng is a personal disciple of Zhang Longcheng and a master of Wudang. Zhang Longcheng asked him to accompany Li Jingwei, and saw that Li Jingwei was very important. Of course, this also has a lot to do with the fact that Old Man Xiao and Wudang have always had a close relationship.

This time, Zhang Longcheng did not go to Puhai to visit Xiao Chufeng in person, because he was too senior and not suitable to go in person. After all, martial arts is the most senior, and many things must be done according to the rules.

"Jingwei! Do your best and obey the destiny of heaven. Do everything with your heart, but don't force it against the sky. “

Zhang Longcheng was not at ease, and admonished again. Subsequently, he told Li Jingwei the contact person after arriving at Tianshan, and then hung up the phone after a few words of relief.

Li Jingwei didn't know if he could find the Red Flame Snake from the Tianshan Cold Pool, but he knew very well in his heart that if he didn't try, he would definitely not be able to forgive himself. It is about the safety of my grandfather, even if there is a glimmer of hope, I have to fight to the death.

The destiny of heaven is difficult to know, and humanity is easy to keep. Li Jingwei believes that fate does not always come from fate, and sometimes it also comes from a person's choice.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Jingwei called Uncle Wei again, asking him to help him and Zhang Yuanpeng book a ticket to Wushi tomorrow afternoon, and prepare some outdoor equipment, especially diving suits, oxygen cylinders, etc. I don't know if these things will work, but I always try to be prepared.

When he returned to the ward, Li Jingwei found that his grandfather was still asleep, perhaps because he was in a good mood after seeing Li Jingwei come back, and his grandfather was sleeping much more serene than when he first saw him.

Looking at his grandfather silently like this, Li Jingwei seemed to have returned to his childhood. The two of them were lying on the recliner under the tree, the grandfather fell asleep reading the newspaper, the newspaper was covered on his body, and he was lying on the recliner next to him reading a book, quiet and warm.

The years are like knives, but after all, they still leave the marks of the annual rings on my grandfather's body.
