C13 Damn It

After about ten minutes, Shi Lei took out the needles and ordered Kuan Haiping to change his position to a side bedroom. He took another 18 needles and filled up the remaining 18 acupuncture points.

After a while, the sky outside was almost dark.

After the 108 major acupuncture points were inserted, Shi Lei's steps were a little shaky. When he helped Kuan Haiping up, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.

Kuan Haiping hurriedly supported him and asked caringly, "Is Sir alright?"

Shi Lei didn't even have the strength to speak. He could only slowly shake his head and then sit on the ground. He held his hands in a circle and formed a spell. He adjusted his breathing according to the breathing technique taught by the Chen Clan's ancestors for a long time.

Half an hour passed. Kuan Haiping had been watching from the side and didn't dare to make a sound, afraid of disturbing him. When he saw Kuan Haiping slowly open his eyes, he immediately handed him a teacup. "Sir, drink some water."

Shi Lei took the cup and took a sip. He wiped his mouth and said, "You almost killed me. Tsk, your illness is really amazing!"

Kuan Haiping's face was full of guilt. "Dragging Sir down like this, I... really feel bad about it."

"It's fine. Don't forget to take it to heart." Shi Lei waved his hand. "How do you feel now?"

"Comfortable! Comfortable as possible. It has been so many years, but I have never felt so comfortable before. Sir's medical skills are superb!"

Shi Lei laughed and said, "I can't see much effect once. In a few days, your old illness will relapse. How about this, I will treat you three times a week from now on."

Looking at the small shop, Shi Lei said," Next time, go to my house for acupuncture. Your environment is really... "

Kuan Haiping bowed deeply. "I'll listen to you, sir. Wherever you say to go, go!"

Before he left, Kuan Haiping insisted on inviting Shi Lei to dinner. Shi Lei refused and said that dinner was ready at home.

Thinking about how long it would take, Kuan Haiping did not insist. He returned to the house and took out the Copperball and respectfully handed it to Shi Lei.

Shi Lei pushed it away and said, "This illness of yours can be cured less than a year and a half. There might be some mistakes in between. It's not appropriate to give it to me now."

Kuan Haiping was a martial artist with a hot temper and a straight personality. He forcefully pushed the Copperball forward and said, "Sir, you must keep it! After today's incident, I finally saw it. I can only rely on Sir for this illness, so this thing has long been yours. Even if it's late, it will still be yours. If it's late, why don't you give it to me earlier! "

Shi Lei understood that he was afraid that he would interrupt the treatment and give the benefits in advance. It was equivalent to giving him a precautionary measure.

In order to make him feel at ease, he smiled and took the Copperball.

Kuan Haiping saw that he was willing to take it, so a stone in his heart fell to the ground.

When he entered the house, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening.

Shi Lei noticed that Chen Yurou had not slept yet, so he prepared some supper and refreshments and placed them on the coffee table. As he watched the television, he waited for his return.

Shi Lei sat beside Chen Yurou, opened his mouth, and took the cake from his wife. He took a bite and said, "Where's Mom? Did she sleep?"

Chen Yurou nodded. "I'm asleep. Try this biscuit again. I specially baked it for you."

Shi Lei took a bite and praised, "Sweet."

Chen Yurou said, "Is it sweet? I am afraid it will be too sweet. You are not used to it."

Shi Lei smiled and said, "I'm used to it. No matter how sweet it is, it won't be as sweet as your little mouth."

After saying that, he kissed Chen Yurou's red lips.

Chen Yurou responded to him. The more she kissed, the more intense it became. The more she kissed, the more moved she became. Finally, Shi Lei carried her and walked to the bedroom.

After the wind stopped and the rain fell, Chen Yurou slept very soundly. Shi Lei looked at his wife's smiling face in her sleep and thought that this was the life he wanted.

Eight years of marriage, eight years of suffering, everything was not in vain!

Staring at the "sleeping beauty" by his side for a while, Shi Lei reluctantly got off the bed and quietly went to the living room. He took out the Copperball from his pocket on the clothes rack.

After getting this from Kuan Haiping, he did not have time to study it. During the day, his mother-in-law was always at home, so it was inconvenient.

It was not appropriate to play outside in public. He could only take advantage of the night when the mother and daughter were sleeping and take it out to take a look.

At this moment, Shi Lei was holding the Copperball in his hand. He could feel a pure energy surging inside. It was undoubtedly the "Soul Essence."

It was very easy for a person's body to be tempered. As long as the method was appropriate, anyone could cultivate a body of copper skin and iron bones. Even those with good talent and opportunities could become invulnerable.

However, it was very difficult to train the soul. Not to mention training, ordinary people could not even sense the existence of the soul.

Those with strong souls would possess all kinds of divine abilities. For example, like the Chen family's ancestor, after death, they would be able to store a wisp of their soul in the jade pendant. They would also be able to pour all the knowledge they had learned throughout their life into someone else's body.

Shi Lei could only digest half of what he had obtained from the Chen family's ancestor. It was not even a drop in the ocean. There were many profound content that he could not understand or grasp due to the limitations of his abilities.

For example, the "Evil Disease."

Evil Disease was not like what many people imagined. It was a feudal superstitious belief, and it was just a subject of TCM.

Since ancient times, Inner Canon of Huangdi, Various Types of Typhoid, A-B Classic of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, and so on. Many TCM classics had content regarding "exorcising evil." However, as time passed, due to various reasons, the content of these ancient texts that were passed down was missing, and the content that was used to deal with evil diseases could not be seen much.

Speaking of which, even if they saw it, most modern people would think that it was the imagination of the ancient people.

Having grasped the knowledge of Chen family's ancestor's lifetime, Shi Lei knew that many hospitals that were unable to treat, or even unheard of illnesses, actually belonged to the category of evil diseases. He was very interested in this, but he did not know how to start.

Although this part of the knowledge he inherited was part of it, there was a barrier in his mind that prevented him from touching it.

He calmed down and thought about it carefully. It should be because he was not capable in some areas. There were only disadvantages and no benefits for him to come into contact with these things prematurely.

He did not know if the Soul Essence in the Copperball could help him make up for these shortcomings.

With this thought in mind, Shi Lei took the Copperball to the balcony and sat cross-legged on the ground. He held the Copperball in his hand and began meditating.

Unknowingly, a few hours had passed.

Shi Lei did not see that the Soul Essence in the Copperball suddenly lit up. Then, specks of starlight followed the hollow space around the sphere and drifted out bit by bit. It slowly scuttled towards Shi Lei's Dantian and disappeared there.

Shi Lei could not see, but he could feel it.

Through his inner sight, he found that there was a shadow somewhere in his body.

At first, the shadow was vague and indistinct, like a cloud of fog. It was hard to tell what shape it was. However, as a wisp of light entered his dantian and gradually merged with the shadow, it became solid.

In the end, Shi Lei found out that it was a human figure. When the Soul Essence in the Copperball was completely absorbed, the human figure would be even more "specific." Even his facial features and facial features could be clearly seen.

It was a 'illusory' version of himself!

This feeling was very strange. It was as if he was looking in a mirror in a bathroom surrounded by fog. The person in the mirror was the same size and appearance as him, but due to a layer of water vapor, it was not very clear.

Shi Lei knew that this was his soul.

It seemed like absorbing the Soul Essence in the Copperball had an effect. At least he could sense the existence of the soul.

After that, Shi Lei became very playful and did all kinds of experiments.

He discovered that the soul in his body was connected to his mind. He could "command" him through his consciousness.

When he asked him to sit down, he would sit down. When he asked him to squat, he would squat down. When he asked him to punch, he would punch him in a decent way.

Shi Lei was having a lot of fun. When he came back to his senses, the sky was already bright.

After sitting on the balcony for the whole night, Shi Lei's waist was not sore, his legs were not numb, and he was not tired. Instead, he felt refreshed.

He opened his eyes and woke up from his inner sight. He found that his intuition had become unusually sharp.

For example, he did not need to leave the room to feel that his mother-in-law was making breakfast in the kitchen. He could even roughly sense her every move and anything around her.

Another example was, in the bedroom next to the balcony, he could vaguely see a person lying on the bed. It was Chen Yurou. It seemed that it was still early and she had not woken up yet.

Then, an even more strange scene happened.

Just as Shi Lei wanted to stand up, a buzzing sound was heard. A fly flew past his eyes. Shi Lei subconsciously rolled his eyes, wanting to chase after the fly.

Then he discovered...

Its flying speed had slowed down!

Just like the slow movements in movies, it slowly and slowly moved forward. Every time it flapped its wings, it would be able to clearly see it moving up and down!

"Tsk tsk."

Shi Lei smacked his lips and felt that it was amazing. Then, he tried not to pay attention to the fly, and its speed returned to normal. With a buzz, it flew away.

Shi Lei knew that it was not the fly that had slowed down, but his attention had become sharper. As long as he focused his mind on a certain place, all the details of that place, the passing of time, and the movement of the surrounding objects, all of them would appear before his eyes.

If he wanted to catch that fly just now, it would have been a piece of cake.

Shi Lei was a little excited.

The effect of this Soul Essence was simply heaven defying!

He wondered if he could dodge the bullets now.

If he could, wouldn't he be invincible?
