Text Text_041, Ji Xian sees the pot

The old man looked up at Shi Liangde's eyes, suddenly sighed, and was silent for a moment before saying, "When I passed by your village, it was raining heavily. I was cold and hungry, and knocked on the doors of several houses, as if there was no one inside. When you arrived at your house, you let me into the house and invited me to a supper. The rain kept going on and I stayed at your house for the night.

You are kind to me, I am very grateful to you, so I gave you a home remedies, and told you that I am the heir of the tired door of the eight gates of the rivers and lakes, and told you a lot of routines for walking the rivers and lakes, including the twelve thresholds of the tired door, as well as the top, string, interception, pumping, blocking, covering, retreating and so on.

At that time, I thought that if something happens to you in the future, you can still eat with your mouth. I also told you the truth, as soon as you enter the rivers and lakes, your conscience is half eaten by dogs, but the other half still has to be guarded, especially when you are tired of practicing medicine, which is related to his life.

I've only been at your house for one day, and I've only talked about these things once, and I may not be able to remember them all, and even if I do, I may not be able to use them. You are indeed a genius, and your skills are your own, not something I can teach.

I said back then, I may come to you if I have the opportunity, Jianghu pays attention to 'sharp' and 'inside', if you are really a suitable heir, there is another secret inheritance.

Seven years later, when I went back to your village, you went out to practice medicine, and I happened to have something to do, so I didn't go out of my way to look for you again. Then I heard your name and your deeds, and knew that you no longer needed me to do anything, and that I had nothing more to teach you. ”

Shi Liangde: "Elder Wu, how can you say that? I still have a lot of things to ask you for!"

The old man said slowly: "If you really wanted to find me, you could have found me a long time ago, you made a fortune twenty years ago." But it was only five years ago that you got someone to draw me and send people to inquire about me in various places. At that time, you were already the founder of Poten Group, and you controlled several listed companies in Hong Kong, so you didn't just remember it, right?

I know what you're for. You already have everything, it's not what it was back then, but you still feel a little regretful. One is that you never know who I am, and the rumors about you say that I am just a wandering doctor, and the second is that I have not yet taught you the secret art of exhaustion.

So your life isn't perfect enough, and it should be perfect in your mind. You say you want to thank me, I don't doubt it, you need to find me, thank me, and make a break to the regrets in life.

How can the famous Shi Liangde and the founder of the Poten Group get a home remedy from a doctor in the hands of a Jianghu wandering doctor? You hope that I am a generation of famous doctors or miracle doctors, even if I am not, you can find a way to make my identity like that.

Of course, I drank a little too much that day, and told you that there is a secret transmission of the 'body contemplation technique' in the Jianghu Tired Sect, and if you are a suitable successor, I will teach you in the future. When you don't lack anything, you're afraid you'll remember things you haven't gotten all along, right?"

When dealing with people, they often have their own little abacus, and there is no need to expose them all, save some face for each other, otherwise they will not be able to talk. And what this old man said was direct enough!

Shi Liangde also seemed to be self-contained enough, but he didn't get angry, and still stood there and said, "Old Wu, why do you say this? You are indeed kind to me, and I really want to repay you." You mentioned the secret body observation technique of the tired door of the rivers and lakes back then, and I really want to inherit it, which is also human nature.

If you feel that I am too old to learn your skills, I can also let my son and grandson learn from you, in short, I will not treat you badly and will honor your old man. I am not the same as I was at the beginning, and my abilities are different, and I can do a lot of things for you. ”

The old man waved his hand and said, "I have my own heir, so there is no need for you to worry about this kind of thing." You don't owe me anything, I don't owe you anything, and if you really want to repay me, don't do anything else. I think that night at dinner, you made a salted fish, and I once asked you - what would happen if the salted fish turned over?"

Shi Liangde: "I still remember that I took this question as an inspirational sentence, and I have been working hard for 30 years, so I have today's ......"

The old man interrupted him and said, "I finally saw you today, and I can tell you the answer - the salted fish turned over, or the salted fish...... If you really want to thank me, do something for me now, and stop sending people around looking for me. Anyway, I have your personal contact information, and I'll look for you if I have something. ”

Shi Liangde's bodyguard, Xiao Jiang, waited quietly under the hill, and he couldn't see the gazebo on the hill from this position, nor could he hear the conversation in the gazebo. At this time, Shi Liangde suddenly walked down, his face was very ugly, and when he passed by Xiao Jiang's side, he didn't stop, but just whispered: "Let's go." ”

Shi Liangde's appearance was obviously very unhappy, Xiao Jiang hurriedly followed, and when he walked a long way to the gate of the park, Xiao Jiang cautiously asked: "Ancestor, what's wrong, you came back in such a hurry, does he dare not give you face?"

On private occasions, the people around him did not call Shi Liangde the ancestor, and even the word "sect" was omitted, and he was directly called the ancestor. Shi Laozu snorted coldly and said: "I was kind enough to repay him, but he seemed to guard against me, and before I could make a request, he told me first that the secret body contemplation technique of the rivers and lakes could not be taught to me." ”

Xiao Jiang persuaded: "It's just a set of tricks, with your current net worth and status, you don't have to care about it at all." ”

Shi Liangde: "What do you know! Have you ever heard of an ancient text "Bian Que Meets Cai Huangong"?"

Xiao Jiang: "I have a little impression, it seems that I have learned it in middle school texts, he really has the ability of a miracle doctor Bian Que?"

Shi Liangde: "He drank some wine that day and specially mentioned it to me, which doesn't look like a lie. It is a unique life that can know whether the disease is incurable, and can determine life and death at a glance. ”

Xiao Jiang was stunned, and then said: "Ancestor, not to mention whether this matter is true or not, even if there is, it is just a clever medical technique. What age is it now, what kind of diagnostic equipment and diagnosis and treatment technology do we have? Recently, we have won several cooperation projects with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, do you have to learn these or not, does it matter?

Over the years, at least in the medical industry, no one has been more successful than you. And what kind of character is he, who has heard of him, and how can he be compared to the ancestor? Even if he knows what kind of body contemplation technique, it will only be like this for the rest of his life. As for the Ancestor, it doesn't matter whether you will or not. ”

Shi Liangde has so many subordinates, this Xiao Jiang can become his personal bodyguard, of course, he is also a very caring person, and what he says is also very popular.

Shi Liangde nodded and said, "What you said is right, but I have been thinking about it for so many years, and I always feel a little regretful." I thought that as long as I opened my mouth respectfully, he would nod his head, and I could afford to give any kind of thanks. Jianghu people, nothing more than fame and profit, I didn't expect him to refuse so simply. ”

Xiao Jiang frowned and said, "Ancestor, have you thought of another possibility? He doesn't know any secret skills at all, he just fooled you and hung your appetite back then, but in fact, he can't teach you even if he wants to." What he gave you back then was just a unilateral prescription for treating skin diseases, and the rest was just those tricks and abductions, just a charlatan!"

Shi Liangde's expression was shocked: "There is also such a possibility." ”

Xiao Jiang: "If this is not the case, how can he not want the benefits of Old Ancestor? But with your current status and status, Old Ancestor, he will not dare to lie to you anymore, otherwise he will not be able to bear the consequences." You know, these are all routines. ”

Shi Liangde's expression changed uncertainly, and after a while, he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's really powerful, a light sentence has made me worry about it for decades! Whether it's true or not, this routine is indeed deep enough." You're right, I don't need to care about this, it's just a trace of obsession back then, and I should have let go of it a long time ago. ”

Xiao Jiang leaned in again and said, "Ancestor, it's very simple to know if it's true or not. He is in the Realm Lake now, even if we don't move him today, we can find him the first time, and we can find him the second time. Things can be done to be hidden, and we won't do anything to him, and it has nothing to do with you, Ancestor.

It's just that he wants this old thing to confess, whether his so-called secret biography is true or not, if it is true, then hand over what the ancestor wants, and what reward he wants, he can mention it!"

Shi Liangde was obviously a little moved, but after hesitation, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, this person doesn't know the details, we don't even know what his name is." Now that the family is big, many people are staring at it, so there is no need to cause any trouble. And anyway, he was a little kind of favor to me back then.

At least there is such a person and such a thing in the rumors about me, if I really do something to him and show little respect, it will not sound good if it gets out. Whether he lied to me back then, or whether he wants to embarrass me now, I don't want to embarrass him. ”

Xiao Jiang praised and said: "Old ancestor is benevolent!" As they spoke, they had already walked to the gate of the park, and there were three other people waiting in front of a black business car, and Shi Liangde got into the car and left without saying a word.

Shi Liangde and his bodyguard Xiao Jiang only spoke after walking far away, and there was no one else around at that time, of course they thought that no one could hear them. But Ding Qi heard it all, they walked all the way to the gate of the park, such a distance in broad daylight was already beyond the hearing range of normal people, but Ding Qi still heard it clearly.

Shi Liangde left, Ding Qi was still meditating halfway up the mountain, and I don't know how long it took, he finally opened his eyes and let out a breath, slowly moved his body to stand up, and then suddenly took two steps back, almost leaning into a bush, and said in surprise: "Why are you here?"

The old man stood a few paces in front of him, between two bushes, looking at him with his back hand. This startled Ding Qi, he didn't notice it at all, it felt like he's seen a ghost.

Seeing his reaction, the old man smiled and said, "Young man, you still haven't cultivated to your home!

Ding Qi said honestly: "Fortunately, it was broad daylight, and you suddenly appeared here, I was not prepared at all, it was really scary." If you have a heart attack, you may be scared out. ”

Old man: "If you can scare a bad guy like this, you won't be practicing here early in the morning." Young man, your qi cultivation kung fu is very good, and your breath is integrated with the mountains, forests, and plants, and I didn't even notice it when I went up the mountain. Later, Shi Liangde went up the mountain, and I was afraid that he would have another ambush, so I made a special investigation to find you.

I thought you were a master of Shi Liangde's ambush here, but it turned out that you were not here, you are practicing here, and it seems that we are bothering you. Can the breath be so well retracted, hidden so that even I can't detect it, and the younger generation is also a master, you are the heir of the Jianghu Floating Gate, right?"

This misunderstanding was a big one, and Ding Qi hurriedly explained: "Old man, what kind of master am I, just a psychiatrist." I'm not practicing here, I'm meditating, but you've always misunderstood. ”

The old man stared at Ding Qi with interest and said, "I understand the rules, and I won't ask if you don't want to say it." I met you yesterday, your name is Ding Qi, you are very famous, you are the top expert of the Boci Medical Psychology Clinic, right? Your spiritual sense is good, you were the first to notice me yesterday, but I didn't expect to meet again today. ”

Ding Qi didn't know how to explain, many things were indescribable, so he had to nod and say, "Fortunately, but you really misunderstood!"

The old man also nodded and said, "Yes, I did misunderstand." You didn't follow me, you came first, and we bothered you. You should have heard what I said to Shi Liangde just now, so if you have any questions, just say it. ”

Ding Qi was a little embarrassed and said, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop, I just felt a little curious." If it comes to your old privacy, I don't want to ask, let alone say it. ”

The old man didn't seem to hear his explanation, and said to himself: "Do you really think that Shi Liangde deliberately came to me just to repay his kindness? If he was really grateful and regarded me as a benefactor, when he saw me yesterday, he should have caught up with me in person, and this is the normal reaction of any normal person." But he pretended to be nothing, and called a bodyguard to target me.

You are a psychiatrist, and you should understand the truth that 'when things go wrong, there must be demons'. I haven't seen him for years, and I know he's looking for me, but when I see him, I know what kind of reaction he has. He just wanted to get what he didn't get back then, thinking that with his current net worth, as long as he opened his mouth to promise, I would definitely give it with both hands. ”

It's really such a truth, the old man's words are already very clear, and Ding Qi also saw Shi Liangde's mentality. No matter how nice Shi Liangde's words were when they met today, yesterday's situation had already exposed his true attitude in his heart.

Shi Liangde was inspecting a subordinate branch that he had previously estimated that he could not even name, and it was just an insignificant matter to him, but he suddenly saw a benefactor twenty-nine years ago, and he didn't ask which was more important. If he really regarded the old man as a benefactor he had missed for many years, he should immediately put down the matter at hand and chase after him.

But what did Shi Liangde do? Pretending to be indifferent, he sent a bodyguard to keep an eye on the old man's whereabouts. The old man's heart was like a mirror, and he didn't deliberately get rid of the stalkers, and the next day he came to this no-man's land, and really attracted Shi Liangde. From a psychological point of view, Ding Qi can already conclude that Shi Liangde is not willing to let others know about his relationship with the old man in public.

It is rumored that Shi Liangde got a home remedy from a traveling doctor, and then started the road of practicing medicine and starting a business. Rumors are rumors, no one can be sure whether it is true or not, and Shi Liangde himself has never publicly admitted it, with his current status, this is certainly not a glorious deed.

But this is the private matter of the old man and Shi Liangde, although Ding Qi is curious, he doesn't want to meddle in things, he is only interested in another matter, and asks again: "Old senior, are you really a master of the tired sect of the rivers and lakes?

The old man was slightly stunned, and then smiled again: "You even heard what they said later, and said that you are not a master?"

Ding Qi: "You really misunderstood, I'm really not a master! I did hear those words, what I can explain is just a technique I figured out myself, and the state just now ......"

The old man waved his hand and said, "You don't have to explain anything, it's not a big deal if you can hear it." But I would like to remind you that you have heard all the conversations today, and it is better not to let Shi Liangde know, and not to tell anyone about today's events, otherwise there may be trouble. I'm sorry, I chose this place to meet him, and I caused you trouble!"

Ding Qi shook his head and said: "Of course I won't say it, you can rest assured, I will treat it as if I didn't hear anything today." ”

The old man looked at him and said: "The secret body contemplation technique of the rivers and lakes is not unheard of by insiders, and there is nothing that cannot be told to you." Since you know the allusion of "Bian Que Meets Cai Huangong", then you can check another allusion in "Zhuangzi" after you go back, that is, the story of "Ji Xian Sees the Pot". If you understand it, you will probably be able to understand it. ”

Ding Qi was a little stunned for a while, the story of "Bian Que Meets Cai Huangong", he had studied in middle school textbooks, and the story of "Ji Xian Sees the Pot" had really never heard of it before. The old man had already left after speaking, and Ding Qi asked again in the back: "Senior, who are you, can I ask ......?"

The old man turned around and interrupted him: "My surname is Wu, my name is Wu Shenshou, don't you tell Shi Liangde...... Seeing each other in the rivers and lakes is fate, and there will be a fate again. Then he drifted away.

Wu stretched out his hand, such a strange name, it even sounded a little funny, Ding Qi was left alone in the bushes, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time. Today, I overheard such a private conversation, which broke through the secrets of some people, and inexplicably chatted with this Wu senior.

Ding Qi was sure that this old gentleman was a master, he didn't mean anything else just now, he just wanted to explain to the other party how he heard the conversation, and he wanted to ask the other party for advice, why could he hear it?

Fang Cai's wonderful state was something he had figured out on his own, and no one had ever told him what was going on, but the old man said that he was a master, and he looked tacit, obviously misunderstood.
