Bai Xiangtao knew the current state of his body better than anyone else, and he couldn't help but think of the Taoist priest who saved him in the first place.

"Zhou Heng, if you still need my help, even if you say it, Luo Ge also said just now, I want to pay you more for the consultation, I have already arranged for someone to do it, 500,000 is not much, it should be regarded as my own mind!"

Zhou Heng smiled, "The old man is polite, the money is not rich, in fact, it doesn't mean much to me, the money is enough to spend, no matter how much is just a number, if the old man is willing, why not tell me the origin of that piece of jade?"

Bai Xiangtao laughed, "I knew you would ask this question, I have already asked someone to arrange dinner, let's talk for a while today!"

Bai Xiangtao glanced at Bai Zhiyuan, "Zhiyuan, you take Luo Ge to help, I'll talk to Zhou Heng for a while!"

Bai Xiangtao obviously didn't want Bai Luoge to listen to these things, so he asked Bai Zhiyuan to leave with Bai Luoge.

Bai Luoge was a little reluctant at first, but thinking that his grandfather's words might be very helpful to Zhou Heng, he left a little reluctantly and went to the kitchen to help.

There were only two people left in the room, Bai Xiangtao and Zhou Heng, and Zhou Heng asked, "Old man, the Taoist who helped you treat your injuries at the beginning should not be an ordinary person, right?"

Zhou Heng's question was very direct and directly pointed out the key to the problem.

When treating Bai Xiangtao just now, Zhou Heng was still a little suspicious at first, why the injured spleen that was pierced could be controlled within the spleen, but there was no sign of spread. It would not have been possible to do this with just ordinary medical treatment.

Bai Xiangtao laughed, "Zhou Heng, when you took a fancy to my piece of jade, you already guessed that you were not an ordinary person, sure enough, that Taoist also said that if someone can recognize this piece of jade, they can help me get rid of the root of the disease, and now that the root of the disease is eliminated, I have also thought about it, as for what you want to ask, it should be the clue of the Taoist, right?"

Zhou Heng nodded, "If the other party can take out this piece of jade, it means that it has something to do with the sect I belong to, so please make sure that the old man tells the Taoist where he is." ”

Referring to the whereabouts of that Taoist, Bai Xiangtao gradually fell into memory.

Bai Xiangtao was in his early twenties during the Anti-Japanese War, and in a battle, he was shot through the spleen by the enemy.

Surrounded by the enemy in the mountains, there was no chance of treatment at all, and after dragging on for more than ten days, the wound was inflamed, the spleen was completely damaged, and the whole person was so weak that it was difficult to stand.

When the enemy army surrounding the mountain was finally repulsed, Bai Xiangtao also fell completely, there was a Taoist temple in the mountain at that time, after Bai Xiangtao was carried into the Taoist temple by his comrades, a Taoist in the Taoist temple, after seeing Bai Xiangtao's injury, did not hesitate, and directly treated.

Dig up the rotten flesh that has been necrotic on Bai Xiangtao's body, and after treating Bai Xiangtao's wounds with a silver needle, he will give Bai Xiangtao a piece of jade.

This piece of jade, which is a little irregular, just hung on his body, Bai Xiangtao felt a warm current and poured into his body.

Although this piece of jade has lost this feeling since then, Bai Xiangtao remembers the words of the Taoist at that time very clearly, "Don't take off the jade, once you leave, your life may be lost at any time, unless you can meet someone who can recognize this piece of jade and help you completely eradicate the disease." ”

For more than 60 years, Bai Xiangtao has been thinking about finding people who know this piece of jade more than once, and it is not until today that the appearance of Zhou Heng has made Bai Xiangtao realize this wish.

At that time, not long after the Taoist handed over the jade to him, Bai Xiangtao had already understood the Taoist man's thoughts, the Taoist was not interested in treating his injuries, and the only useful place was to borrow Bai Xiangtao's hand to give this piece of jade to people who knew this piece of jade.

It is precisely because of this that Bai Xiangtao will not hesitate to send Bai Luoqiu out after his physical condition appears, and the purpose is also to use those who help Bai Luoqiu to heal to see if he can meet the destined person who can help him heal the root of the disease. Even if he is unlucky and can't find the destined person that the Taoist priest is looking for, Bai Xiangtao has lived for more than eighty years and is already content.

Now that he has finally waited for Zhou Heng's arrival, Bai Xiangtao is false to say that he is not excited. Especially seeing the relationship between Bai Luoge and Zhou Heng, Bai Xiangtao was even happier for his granddaughter from the bottom of his heart.

Bai Xiangtao understood better than anyone else that Zhou Heng's identity was not ordinary, so he sent away together with Bai Zhiyuan, who was a master outside the world, and said very solemnly, "Zhou Heng, I can see now that Luo Ge has a heart for you, I don't ask you to promise anything, but I still hope that you won't hurt Luo Ge, can you promise me?"

Bai Xiangtao's request surprised Zhou Heng a little.

After thinking about it carefully, Zhou Heng laughed, "Old man, I think you think too much, since you were able to meet that Taoist, I think you are also a person who is destined for us, why bother to stick to those things that haven't happened yet?"

Zhou Heng's words made Bai Xiangtao suddenly suddenly, and he immediately stroked his palms and laughed, "Look at me, I have lived in vain for more than 80 years, but I can't see it through as well." ”

"Zhou Heng, about the clues of that Taoist, I only know that I met him in the Taoist temple of Jiuzhi Mountain, and soon after he helped me heal my injuries, when I went to the mountains to look for him again, he was no longer in the Taoist temple, and in the following decades, I arranged for people to go to it several times, but I never saw that Taoist. ”

Speaking of this, Bai Xiangtao couldn't help but sigh, "When that Taoist treated my injuries at that time, I was already fifty or sixty years old, and now I count, even if I am still alive, I am already a person among the immortals, and it is rare for the world to see it again." ”

In Bai Xiangtao's tone, there was unspeakable regret.

Immediately, Bai Xiangtao said again, "If you have the heart to go to Jiuzhi Mountain to find that Taoist, my youngest son can help you!"

"Luo Ge's third uncle, Jiuzhi Mountain is not far from Shicheng?"

Zhou Heng was stunned, he heard Bai Luoge mention that among Bai Xiangtao's three sons, Bai Jingming also had a good relationship with the third Bai Mingdong.

Therefore, when Bai Luoge mentioned Bai Mingdong, he also introduced a few more words by the way, and Zhou Heng knew Bai Mingdong's identity in politics. Just now, Zhou Heng was about to ask Bai Xiangtao, where is this Jiuzhi Mountain, but now that Bai Xiangtao said this, Zhou Heng has no need to ask again.

It seems that the old man Bai Xiangtao has already arranged it, which can not only help himself, but also let his third son have more intersection with himself. At this time, Zhou Heng finally understood a little why the teacher Yi Yuanzi wanted to let him go down the mountain to practice, just relying on Bai Xiangtao's various calculations and invisibly, it was enough for Zhou Heng to comprehend it.

Of course, Zhou Heng didn't have any disgust with Bai Xiangtao's innocuous calculations, but it was just Bai Xiangtao's lifelong habit.
