Chapter 585: Iron Pestle Sharpens Needles
It wasn't far from where I took a taxi to the town of Huanghekou, and after asking me where I was going, the taxi driver took a long detour, and after more than an hour, he took me to this fishing village behind the town of Huanghekou.
This fishing village is also the fishing village where Wang Acheng's father and son were located before.
I got out of the car, and when the taxi left, I saw that there was no one around, so I gathered my yang qi and quickly swept towards the fishing village in front of me.
Soon I ran to this fishing village, first gathered my energy to look at the wharf by the Yellow River in front of the fishing village, and found that the fishing boat of Wang Acheng and his son was parked on the wharf.
As long as the fishing boat comes back, it proves that Wang Acheng and his son are back, but what worries me is that Zhao Man, the fat man, Qiu Shasha and others have come back with Wang Acheng and his son? Zhao Man was so seriously injured, but he was still not alive.
These are the things that have worried me the most until now. And there is one thing that makes me worry all the time, that is, the woman in red who is afraid of strength, if she can't find me, she will definitely not give up, with her unfathomable cultivation, it is not difficult to find me again, so even if I escape the first year of junior high school now, I will never be able to escape the fifteenth.
At this point, I now want to urgently break through to the second form of "Infinite True Qi", if I want to strengthen my cultivation, I must comprehend this second form, but although I have comprehended all the first forms of "Infinite True Qi", no matter how I cultivate, I can't comprehend this second form at all.
It was as if there was a bottomless, insurmountable chasm in front of me, holding me back from taking a single step forward.
I never imagined that the first form of "Infinite True Qi" would be able to comprehend all of it smoothly, but I couldn't comprehend the second form by all means.
Just as I was hurrying towards Wang Acheng's house, I suddenly saw an old woman sitting on a stone on the side of the road, bending down and touching an iron rod the thickness of a finger in her hand.
The sound of the iron rod rubbing against the sand and stone was extremely harsh, "stinging, stinging......", when I saw the old woman, I couldn't help but stop, could this be the iron pestle grinding needle?
When I was a child, I learned about the iron pestle to sharpen needles in textbooks, but I didn't expect to actually see this scene with my own eyes in reality.
So I stepped forward and asked:
"What are you doing, old lady?"
"Sharpen the needle." The old lady said to me without raising her head, and her tone was very flat, as if she were talking about something very ordinary.
"Sharpen the needle? As long as the kung fu, the deep iron pestle is sharpened into a needle, this sentence is indeed true, but it is completely unnecessary to do so, if you need a needle, just buy one, why grind it like this, I don't know how long it will be grinded, and what will be delayed. "I know now that this old lady is not insane, but a reclusive person in this world.
That's what my gut tells me.
When the old lady heard what I said, she stopped sharpening the needle in her hand, turned her head to look at me, and said:
"Young man, you are wrong if you think so, it is not difficult to sharpen an iron pestle into a needle, there is only one difficult thing in it, and that is the beginning. No matter what it is, no matter how difficult it is, I'm not afraid that you will do it, I am afraid that you will not even dare to do it, although the iron pestle in my hand seems to be a considerable distance away from the needle, but as long as the dead skin of this iron pestle is worn out, it will be much faster, the water droplets are pierced, the rope is sawed and the wood is broken, sometimes there are some things, it is not that you can't do it, but you don't dare to do it, and you don't even dare to think about it, alas...... Today's young people like to take shortcuts in everything, but if they take too many shortcuts, they will eventually twist ......their feet. The old woman sighed heavily, and began to sit on the stone and sharpen the iron pestle in her hand.
I stood there and pondered what she had just said to me:
'Water drops wear stones, ropes are sawed and wood is broken, sometimes there are some things, it's not that you can't do it, but you don't dare to do it, and you don't even dare to think about it......
Could it be that this old lady is hinting at me something?
I thought about it for a long time, but I never figured out the true meaning of her words, so I had to secretly remember it in my heart and think about it later. After greeting the old woman, he got up and left, and hurried towards Wang Acheng's house.
When I ran to the door of Wang Acheng's house, I was about to open the door and enter the courtyard, but I found that the gate had been locked from the inside. I stood there and knocked hard.
In a few moments I heard a voice coming from the courtyard at the door, and then a man came out:
"Who's coming?!" Listening to the voice, it was Wang Acheng.
"Brother Wang, it's me, the thirteenth from the left." I replied.
After Wang Acheng heard that it was me, he hurriedly walked over and helped me open the door.
"Brother Wang, what about my friends? Did they come back with you? ”
After Wang Acheng heard my words, he nodded to me and said:
"Back, back, all came back by boat with us, but one girl was so seriously injured that she still lies on the kang and hasn't woken up."
After hearing Wang Acheng's words, I instantly thought of Zhao Man, who was seriously injured, and hurriedly said to Wang Acheng:
"Brother Wang, which room are they in, take me over quickly."
Wang Acheng nodded, closed the door, and then led me towards the main house.
After following Wang Acheng into the back room, I saw Qiu Shasha and the fat man sitting on the side without saying a word, obviously not in a high mood, and the unconscious Zhao Man was lying on the kang.
When I saw Zhao Man lying on the kang with his eyes closed, I hurriedly gathered yang qi and looked over. found that although the yang qi on her body was weak, it had always existed, and there was no tendency to disperse and weaken, so she was completely relieved, and Zhao Man's fate was saved.
Qiu Shasha and the fat man, who were sitting on the side, also saw me at the same time, and when the fat man saw me enter the house, he jumped up from the bench and grabbed me:
"Senior brother, you ...... You're not dead?!! The fat man's tone was full of surprise and joy.
"What, you still want me to die?" I looked at the fat man and said with a smile.
"Look at what you said, is my fat man that kind of villain? It's just that I heard Qiu Shasha tell me that you were taken away by the woman in red clothes who cultivated against the sky, I really thought you wouldn't be able to come back alive, senior brother, you think so, but this hurts my heart too much, really, sadly......" The fat man looked at me and said.
I smiled, and said in my heart that I was almost no different from death before, I had been chased and killed by the woman in red, and I had been circling around at the gate of the Hades Palace.
I turned my head to look at Qiu Shasha, and found that she had been looking at me just now, and when she found out that I was looking at her, she couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and hurriedly took her eyes back, and her eyes also moved to Zhao Man lying on the kang.
"Qiu Shasha, how is the injury on Sister Zhao Man's body?" In fact, I also understand that the reason why Zhao Man was so seriously injured on the 'Yin Yang Island' and was able to come back alive was probably because Qiu Shasha rescued her.
"It's not a big deal, the wounds on her body don't hurt the muscles and bones, it's just that there is some excessive blood loss, and she will be fine after a few days of rest." Qiu Shasha said to me.
"That's good, that's good...... Thank you. I said.
"Thank me? Aren't you supposed to hate me? It is precisely because of me that your whereabouts this time will be revealed, and that woman will find you. Qiu Shasha looked at me and said, her face also flushed with a trace of guilt at this time.
"This has nothing to do with you, even if it doesn't have you, she will definitely find that woman, but Qiu Shasha, I have a few things that I have to ask you clearly." I looked at Qiu Shasha and said.
Qiu Shasha nodded slightly:
"If you ask, I'll tell you whatever I know."
"What is the identity and origin of that woman in red, and what is the origin between the Dragon and Tiger Sect and her? And what is your relationship with her? I looked at Qiu Shasha, and then asked these words that had been hidden in my heart.
