Chapter 63: Mr. Zhong is a good comrade
"Leave it to the state?"
Zhong Yuan was stunned for a moment.
After he had the ability, what he was most afraid of was being caught by the relevant departments and slicing and studying, so he has been living a very low-key life.
Although his ability is much greater now, it is still a bit unsightly for him to confront the state apparatus.
He is still full of fear of the state apparatus.
Although Old Man Cheng only suggested that he sort out what he knew and hand it over to the state, this was not what he wanted.
First of all, there is a question of resources.
The resources on this earth were too scarce, especially the cultivation resources, except for the aura formed by the power of faith, he couldn't find any other cultivation resources.
Even if he absorbs all the spiritual energy of faith in the world, he can't achieve the Great Dao, if it spreads, there are more people who learn, and his own share will be less.
Secondly, there is also the consideration of maintaining one's own advanced nature.
Even if this world suddenly became full of spiritual energy, he would not easily pass on his exercises, otherwise, if some qualified cultivation genius appeared, surpassing him in a few hundred years, wouldn't he cultivate a competitor for himself?
Although he also has a lot of martial arts cheats, there is no doubt that Old Man Cheng is not interested in this.
Zhong Yuan pondered for a long time before he said: "I also hope that more people can master such skills, but the requirements for practicing this skill are too high, and the danger is also very great, and there is no possibility of expansion." ”
He decided to make up a story for the old man that seemed to be true or false: "In fact, I can have such an ability, and it is also a coincidence, because I acted bravely, I was struck by lightning, and inexplicably opened up the meridians of the whole body, which was favored by my master and taught me this body kung fu." My master said that he had been looking for a successor for 70 years before he met me, a person who was suitable for practice, and that without such conditions as mine, he would not be able to practice such qigong. ”
Cheng Nan sent someone to check Zhong Yuan's information, and knew that Zhong Yuan's change occurred after he was struck by lightning, and he was just an ordinary little security guard before, so he didn't doubt Zhong Yuan's statement.
That makes sense!
"Struck by lightning?"
Old Man Cheng muttered, thoughtful.
Zhong Yuan was startled, for fear that the old man would fall into the devil's nest and organize a group of people to be struck by lightning, which would cause a big evil.
He coughed and said, "I asked my master if you can learn this kind of qigong after being struck by lightning, and my master said that there is no such thing." Over the years, he has also met a few people who were lucky enough to not die by lightning, but they are not suitable for practice. ”
Old Man Cheng showed a trace of disappointment on his face, and then paid attention to another question: "Your master, who is your master, and how is his ability better than yours?"
"My master's surname is Wu Mingbai, and his Dao name is Dongli Sanren, and his skills are much better than mine. ”
Fictionalizing a master, it seems that there is a mysterious power behind him, and it is also of great benefit to himself, so Zhong Yuan made it up seriously:
"My master, he is an outsider, and his supernatural powers have reached an incredible realm. According to him, he sensed that there was someone in this world who could inherit his mantle, so he came to him. However, after passing on the exercises, he disappeared again, and I searched for him for more than a year, but I did not find his whereabouts. ”
Speaking of the back, he sighed, with indescribable regret in his eyes.
Old Man Cheng also sighed and said, "Such a capable person cannot be used by the country, and it is also a pity for the country." ”
He was thinking, if there were such masters who went to the United States to steal information on cutting-edge weapons, why would Huaxia be so backward militarily.
Zhong Yuan didn't mean anything when he heard it, lowered his head, and didn't dare to speak.
He is not afraid of Old Man Cheng, but afraid of the country's righteousness.
There are those who take it for granted to give everything they have to the country, and he admires those people, but he does not have the consciousness to follow them.
Old Man Cheng sighed for a while, turned his head to look at Zhong Yuan, and said, "Xiao Zhong, your ability is of great use to the country, do you want to join the army to serve the motherland?"
"Dad," Cheng Nan wiped a cold sweat to relieve Zhong Yuan, "Mr. Zhong is also a good patriotic comrade, and he is now following Mr. Xia, a patriotic overseas Chinese, to do something that has made great contributions to the country, and he can't get out." ”
He felt that his father was a little old and confused, and that people had this ability, so if he really wanted to join the army to serve the motherland, where would he have to wait until now? If he persecuted others like this, he was not afraid of angering them?
Zhong Yuan glanced at him gratefully.
"Oh?" Old Man Cheng was stunned, "What's the matter?"
Cheng Nan told the patriotic overseas Chinese Mr. Xia about the super mine in the T country, he wanted to relieve Zhong Yuan, and naturally made some artistic exaggerations about the difficulties in the process and the role played by Zhong Yuan, saying that if there was no Zhong Yuan, the super mine would not be used by the country.
- He doesn't know, the truth is more exaggerated than he says.
Afraid that Mr. Cheng would not understand the significance of the super mine to Huaxia, Cheng Nan talked about the clamping down of the three major mines on the Huaxia iron and steel industry, especially mentioning the sudden and malicious price increase of the three major mines in the early years.
In the end, he concluded: "With the efforts of Mr. Xia and Mr. Zhong, this mine has finally become a mine owned by our Chinese people, as long as it is developed, our steel industry will not have to worry about being controlled by others in the future, which is of great significance to the development of the country." ”
Old man Cheng has experienced the era of steel smelting, and naturally knows how much it means to bring a super mine to the country, he looked at Zhong Yuan, he was so excited, he stretched out his hand to him and said: "Xiao Zhong, you have done so well, I thank you on behalf of the country!"
Zhong Yuan shook the old man's hand: "As a Chinese son, this is what I should do." ”
Cheng Nan said on the side: "Because the mine has not yet been developed, and it is relatively chaotic over there, Mr. Zhong will have to go over to sit in the town at that time, so he has no time to enter the army to serve the country in the past few years." Moreover, if he goes to country T to do business, it will be inconvenient for him to have the status of a soldier, which will give the Western world a pretext to accuse our country of interfering in the internal affairs of other countries. ”
A few years later, Old Man Cheng didn't know that he was still there, so he didn't have to worry about him forcing Zhong Yuan to enlist in the army and offending this master who had mastered the mysterious power.
"Well, it's all about serving the country, it's the same everywhere. ”
Although Old Man Cheng said this, there was still regret in his eyes.
He is a soldier, and the first thing that comes to mind is naturally the army, and he always feels that he can't let Zhong Yuan be used by the army, which is a huge loss for the army.
Looking at Zhong Yuan, Old Man Cheng said tremblingly: "Xiao Zhong, the world is not peaceful now, the Western world is encircling and intercepting our country, and the imperialists will not die, if the army needs you, I hope you can still stand up and contribute your strength to the country." ”
Zhong Yuan said solemnly: "Cheng Lao, I will remember." ”
