When a touch of fish belly white was reflected in the sky, Zhu Tianrun opened his eyes and bent down to beat his numb legs.

People, as long as they are old, they always can't sleep steadily, and when they wake up in the middle of the night and have nothing to do, Zhu Tianrun will always choose a position by the window, cross his legs to meditate and breathe, absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and refine the essence of the sun and the moon.

The ex-wife said that he was crazy, and he was hopelessly able to take the Tuna Heart Method that he didn't know where to ask for it. But Zhu Tianrun felt that it was always useful to meditate and practice more, otherwise he would have passed the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, and his body would still be so strong?

What the? You say it's the work of physiotherapists and nutritionists? Joke.

There are more rich big bosses in Pingcheng, and all of them have physiotherapists and nutritionists, and they are not the same high blood pressure and high blood lipids? Why doesn't he Zhu Tianrun have these problems? Of course, it was because he meditated every night and exhaled the turbidity in his body!

Everyone thinks that he Zhu Tianrun is stupid and stupid, but they don't know that he is really sober. He is obsessed with practicing qigong, not because he is superstitious and ignorant, but because he has seen the amazing magical powers of qigong masters with his own eyes.

After so many years, Zhu Tianrun has wondered more than once whether he was dazzled and deceived, but no matter how he scrutinized, it didn't look like a trick like magic. Especially after inadvertently discovering the secret of Yao Lao, Zhu Tianrun firmly believed that the magical qigong really existed.

Zhu Tianrun didn't ask for much, he had never had the luxury of going to the heavens and the earth to pick the stars and take the moon, as long as he had the realm of Yao Lao, he would be satisfied.

It's a pity that Yao Lao doesn't accept disciples, no matter how much Zhu Tianrun pleases, he can't ask half a sentence of cultivation method from Yao Lao's mouth.

Despite this, Zhu Tianrun still did not give up, he traveled all over the country, looking for teachers everywhere and asked, Yao Lao was his only and last hope.

As long as he and Yao Lao still have a breath of air, he will never give up.

However, the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, Yao Lao and his family disappeared mysteriously, and Zhu Tianrun's last hope was shattered. Half a lifetime of pursuit, dream bubbles.

Zhu Tianrun's generation happened to coincide with the era of China's economic take-off, and when they were young, the country's leaders personally opened the channel for class ascent and did not charge tickets. If Zhu Tianrun hadn't been obsessed with qigong and concentrated on taking care of his business, he would have been at least ten times richer today, and his social status might have been two levels higher.

To say that you never regret it is to lie to yourself.

But Zhu Tianrun is no longer young, and he has neither the courage and energy to continue to start a business, nor is he willing to give up his lifelong pursuit like this, so he came to Los Angeles.

After many inquiries, Zhu Tianrun bought a piece of news with a lot of money: Yao Lao had built the Heavenly Law Altar in Los Angeles back then.

The Heavenly Dharma Altar used to be the cultivation ground of Yao Lao and his disciples, and in the most glorious era of Qigong, it could be regarded as half a holy place. Even if he finds nothing, Zhu Tianrun has to worship with the heart of pilgrimage.

When he got up early in the morning, Zhu Tianrun made himself a cup of hot tea with a thermos cup, didn't eat breakfast, and took a taxi directly to the Heavenly Law Altar.

Zhu Tianrun arrived in Los Angeles yesterday afternoon, but he didn't go directly to the Heavenly Law Altar, but first found a hotel to stay, because he didn't want to go to the Heavenly Law Altar with a body full of wind and dust. Since it is a pilgrimage, it is natural to bathe and change clothes, fast and burn incense.

When he arrived at the former site of the Heavenly Law Altar, Zhu Tianrun asked as he walked, and it didn't take long to find the only two ancient buildings left in the dense high-rise apartments, which looked like symmetrical drum towers and bell towers in Taoist temples, which were incompatible with the surrounding environment.

Zhu Tianrun stood outside the building and watched for half an hour, thinking about how to get in, when the main entrance of the bell tower was pushed open from the inside out.

There's someone in the building! Zhu Tianrun's eyes lit up and his spirits were uplifted, but the next second he saw clearly that it was a cleaner wearing a blue uniform and labor protection shoes who pushed the door out.

Zhu Tianrun smiled bitterly, yes, these two buildings have been abandoned for more than 20 years, except for the cleaners, who else will go in to suck mildew?

After thinking about it, Zhu Tianrun stepped forward quickly, waved hello to the cleaner who was about the same age as him, then handed over a cigarette, and said politely: "Hello, can I go in and have a look?" ”

The cleaner glanced at the world in his hand, and then at Zhu Tianrun, who was smiling kindly, shrunk his neck, nodded and said, "Come in, no one said not to let you in." Ahem, what, someone hanged themselves in the building last year, and then someone always said that the building was haunted. ”

Zhu Tianrun was stunned and asked, "Is there one?" ”

"I haven't been here at night, and I come every morning to sweep the ashes, but I haven't bumped into a ghost." The cleaner twitched the corners of his mouth, received the cigarette behind his ear, and handed Zhu Tianrun a flashlight, "Give you a reminder, it's always bad if you get bad luck." I'll go to the building next to me, and you'll remember to return me when you come out in a while. Oh yes, don't smoke it in there, I'm afraid of a fire. ”

Zhu Tianrun thanked him and strode into the building.

As soon as I walked in, I heard a squeak behind me.

The door is closed.

Zhu Tianrun glanced back, didn't think much about it, and searched in the dimly lit building with a flashlight.

I didn't see the cheats left behind, nor did I find any useful clues, and although I had been mentally prepared for a long time, I couldn't help but feel disappointed.

Perhaps, this is providence.

Zhu Tianrun sighed and secretly hurt himself.

Life in the world, there are thousands of pains and sufferings, and the most unbearable thing is that you can't ask for it.

insisted on it for half a lifetime, but couldn't even enter the door, no wonder the fairy family was ruthless.

"Gone."

Zhu Tianrun slowly opened his mouth and said something to himself.

He stood there for a moment and then said something more.

"Gone, gone."

I say I want to go, but why can't I move my legs?

"Zhu Tianrun."

A faint call came from nowhere.

Zhu Tianrun was stunned at first, and then remembered the rumors of the haunting in the building, and suddenly he was terrified, his hair stood on end, and the two trembled.

"Zhu Tianrun."

Another call, the strange sound seemed to fall from overhead, and it seemed to float from behind.

"Who!" Zhu Tianrun looked flustered, holding a flashlight to look around, but he couldn't see anyone.

The building was gloomy and empty, and the calls seemed to come from the darkness, echoing in the building, terrifying.

"That's not right." Zhu Tianrun was in a hurry, and suddenly woke up, "If it is a haunted ghost, it is also a hanged ghost, so how can the hanged ghost know my name?" This is someone pretending to be a ghost! ”

"!" Zhu Tianrun scolded angrily, didn't hesitate anymore, turned around and took a few steps, and pushed open the door with a hula.

The bright light outside the door and the passers-by not far away made most of the frightening and strange feeling disappear.

Zhu Tianrun stabilized his mind, turned his head to look behind him again, still didn't see anything, he gritted his teeth angrily, turned around and raised his legs and was about to step out of the door, but heard another voice behind him.

"Zhu Tianrun, do you want to learn qigong?"

Zhu Tianrun seemed to have been spelled by the immobilization spell, and froze in place and remained motionless.

After a while, his throat moved slightly, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, retreated into the house, and closed the door with his hand.
