Chapter 5: Absolute Pulse
Mount Shane, in a cave.
Zhou Xiaotian slowly opened his eyes, the bonfire in front of him gradually became clear, he shook his head a little drowsy, looked around, and found himself in a cave, it seemed to be noon outside the cave, the goose feathers and snow were still falling, he recalled the terrifying scene in the morning, and couldn't help but tremble.
When Zhou Xiaotian, who thought that his life was about to end here, opened his eyes and regained his life, his heart did not seem to be a little happy, perhaps because he had suffered too much illness, so that he no longer attached to the helpless life.
He shook his head and exclaimed in his heart: "Why do you think of death? If I die, I'm afraid that my father and mother will be sad!"
There were a few crisp sounds bursting from the bonfire in front of him, interrupting Zhou Xiaotian's thoughts, the scorching flames climbed up along the burning trend, and the outward radiating firelight illuminated the surrounding rock walls, and the not too big cave could be seen at a glance under the dim firelight.
Click... Click...
An eerie sound came from the deepest part of the cavern. Zhou Xiaotian moved his gaze to the place where the strange sound came from, and vaguely saw something trembling there, he rubbed his eyes and looked carefully, and found that it was an old man in shabby black clothes lying there.
Zhou Xiaotian dragged his still somewhat weak body towards the man in black slowly, through the dim firelight, looking carefully, Zhou Xiaotian couldn't help but be startled by the face that looked like a person and not a person, a ghost and not a ghost, this person was the seriously injured Xuan Dao.
Under the black shabby robe, Xuan Dao's whole body shivered, as if he was very cold, and his upper and lower teeth kept chattering, making a clicking sound. Seeing this, Zhou Xiaotian couldn't be afraid, and hurriedly rushed forward and shouted loudly: "Old man, old man, wake up quickly, you will be frozen to death if you continue like this." Zhou Xiaotian shouted while constantly shaking the Xuandao lying on the ground.
Seeing that Xuandao did not show the slightest sign of awakening, Zhou Xiaotian turned his head and quickly ran to the entrance of the cave, took off his thin Chu-colored shirt and wrapped a pile of snow from the snow, then ran back to the cave to bake the ice and snow wrapped in his clothes into snow water and soaked it in his clothes, and then came to Xuandao and dripped the snow soaked in his clothes into his mouth drop by drop.
Feeling a stream of heat flowing into his mouth, Xuan Dao gradually opened his eyes, his body was still trembling, and when he saw Zhou Xiaotian in front of him, there was a trace of indescribable expression on his face, and there seemed to be something more in his cold eyes. He tried to move his body and tried to sit up, but his body did not listen.
Seeing this, Zhou Xiaotian hurriedly helped Xuandao to sit up and leaned on the cave wall.
"How is the old man feeling now?" Looking at the awakened Xuan Dao, Zhou Xiaotian asked with concern.
Looking at Zhou Xiaotian on the top of his bare head, Xuan Dao moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but without making any sound, he closed his eyes and recuperated himself with a very weird rhythm of breathing.
Zhou Xiaotian saw that he was bored, so he returned to his original position and sat down quietly with his wet clothes.
After a while.
Cuckoo... Zhou Xiaotian's stomach began to scream non-stop. Xuan Dao, who was sitting on the side meditating, moved the corners of his mouth slightly, as if he was smiling. As soon as the palm of his hand was flipped, there was an extra cyan porcelain vase in his hand, and he threw it to Zhou Xiaotian opposite.
"If you are not afraid that I will harm you, you will eat one. ”
Zhou Xiaotian did not hesitate to stuff a pill of Bigu Dan into his mouth, and the feeling of ** was immediately relieved.
Zhou Xiaotian pursed his mouth, and didn't seem to taste anything, but he didn't dare to eat more.
"Boy, why aren't you afraid when you see the old man's half-human, half-ghost appearance? Do you know that I brought you here, aren't you afraid that the pill just now is a huge poison?" Xuan Dao seemed to be very interested in Zhou Xiaotian.
Zhou Xiaotian was still holding the porcelain bottle and pondering carefully, wondering how this little elixir could be so magical. Hearing Xuan Dao's question, he didn't seem to understand, and he didn't care, but nodded stupidly, as if he felt that something was wrong, and shook his head again. Continue to fiddle with the Bigu Dan porcelain vase in your hand.
Xuan Dao seemed to be talking to himself, and sighed: "I originally wanted to hold you hostage to protect my life, but I didn't expect to be rescued by you now, although I would not have saved me without you, I would have recovered slowly, but this intention has already made the old man ashamed!"
He shook his head helplessly, and continued: "I have done such a hurtful thing in my life, and I feel guilty in my heart. Alas!!!Life is fate after all, it seems that I can't be a bad person in my life. ”
Xuan Dao laughed at himself again, shook his head and sighed: "I'm really confused, what can you understand as a casual child, and you still tell you so much!"
"Grandpa will pay you back. Zhou Xiaotian handed over the Bigu Dan porcelain vase that he had been playing with for a long time in his hand and was a little reluctant to hand it over to Xuandao.
Xuan Dao waved his hand and said, "You can keep it." ”
Then he turned over and threw two bottles at Zhou Xiaotian.
"It's useless for me to keep this Bigu Dan, so you can take it all. ”
Zhou Xiaotian took the flying green vial, his little face was covered with excitement, he opened the porcelain bottle curiously and sniffed it, and then looked carefully at what was inside the bottle.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of 'ping pong', Zhou Xiaotian was full of excitement, the porcelain bottle in his hand fell to the ground, and his whole body curled up on the ground, trembling uncontrollably.
"It's so hot, it's so hot......" The familiar illness is like the demon of the Nine Shadows Sea of Fire, tormenting the young mind.
Xuan Dao, who was caught off guard, saw Zhou Xiaotian's immature little face with a hideous face, and his heart was also slightly shocked, how to imagine how an eight-year-old child could bear such pain.
After all, he still couldn't bear it, Xuan Dao waved a black blue light with his left hand, and he didn't enter the center of his eyebrows Zhou Xiaotian struggled lightly a few times before he quieted down.
Xuandao detective gently placed his hand on Zhou Xiaotian's right wrist, and couldn't help but let out a "huh", his face full of doubt. Afraid that he would make a mistake, he closed his eyes and judged carefully. It's just that time passed minute by minute, but the suspicion on his face became thicker and thicker.
He seemed to be a little incredulous, and said strangely: "How can this be, the human body has eight veins of the Qi Sutra, and the Du pulse belongs to one of the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, located in the middle of the back, and its route starts in the lower abdomen, from the perineum to the back, in the middle of the spine, up to the wind, into the brain, on the top of the head, on the lower forehead, along the middle of the forehead, to the bottom of the nose column and the upper teeth. The front and back are connected with the Ren pulse and the Chong pulse, and the foot sun bladder meridian and the foot shao yin and kidney meridians are combined, connecting the heart, kidney and brain. Why is the young man in front of him born with a lack of pulse, and how can he survive?"
Then his right hand glowed with a ball of blue light, which was slowly placed on Zhou Xiaotian's chest, and after a moment he shook his head.
sighed helplessly: "The perennial illness has exhausted his vitality, if there is no technique to return to heaven, I'm afraid he won't be able to last for three years!"
"Ahem..."Xuan Dao suddenly coughed sharply, leaned forward, and spat out a puddle of blood from his mouth.
"Sure enough, I still underestimated the Heavenly Heart Decision of the Demon Sealing Valley, and Situ's palm for me may consume my ten years of cultivation. ”
Xuan Dao frowned, said lightly, "Huh", and said, "Did you find this place?" I didn't expect it to be so fast!"
