Chapter 140: Secrets of Life and Death
om the port management, no ships left the port from 10 pm until now. >>>。Minister Hong left in a hurry and went straight to the hospital. The police also withdrew one after another, and the port quic...Hao Zhanbing felt uneasy. He didn't stop him from going, and when he was drunk, Hao Zhanbing called a car to send him home. 。After leaving Hao Zhanbing's house, he called Xia Meng and asked him in detail about the situation on his side. 。Tian Shao, Principal Chen just passed away, we don't know how to handle this over here yet. 。Let's take a look first. If it really doesn't work out, I think I want to take all the good seedlings with me. 。"Before, Xia Meng told me that martial arts schools are privately funded institutions. Hao Zhanbing's junior brother, Chen Yi, is the principal and legal representative of the school. He founded the martial arts school himself." 。But Chen Yi is not the only owner of Wushu School. Besides him, there are two other investors who now have shares in the school. 。Chen Yi's death meant there were unknown changes to come. If the other two investors decided not to keep Xia Meng on, all his effort over this period would have been for nothing. That's why he said that. 。“Well, let's see about that.” 。In two days, Principal Chen's farewell ceremony will be held, and I will also attend. Please remind me. 。After hanging up the phone, he walked home holding a paper bag. 。On the road, he thought of what Hao Zhanbing had said when he was drunk before, and he felt quite emotional. 。Indeed, a person's life is only a few decades. What are we striving for Wealth and fame are like fleeting clouds, ultimately, everything becomes empty. 。Back at Baiyun District, standing downstairs, looking at the house that was still lit up, his aunt must still be waiting for him. 。Toward the sky suddenly laughed, he realized that he had just suddenly drilled into a dead end. 。A person's whole life is about pursuing a good life each day, making sure their family and loved ones are happy. This is the greatest meaning of human existence. 。He strode up the stairs, just as he reached for his key, the door swung open. 。Xu Lingwei stepped aside to let Xiang Tian enter the room, covering her nose and complaining, "Why drink so much Drinking hurts your body. Don't drink this much in the future." 。She might have just taken a shower, wearing that old sundress she used to wear, quite loose. Her long brown hair was wet and draped behind her head, and there was a faint blush on her smooth face, making her look both gentle and serene. 。"I took the slippers from the shoe rack and placed them in front of Xiang Tian. Xu Lingwei tilted her head, letting her long hair fall down as she combed it while watching Xiang Tian change shoes. “Why didn’t you come back last night Was it busy at the hospital” "Hmm, there were a lot of patients yesterday..." 。"He couldn't let Xu Lingwei know about him and Ji Ruxue, at least not now. So after a simple excuse, he quickly changed the subject, "Auntie, how's business at the store" 。After combing her hair, Xu Lingwei walked into the kitchen. "Go take a shower first," she said, "I'll make you some hangover soup. You can have it in a bit." 。He responded to the heavens with a sound, looking at Xu Lingwei's back, his heart warmed. 。He was unfortunate. His parents died when he was very young, which made him different from other children and deprived him of parental love. 。But he was also lucky to have Xu Lingwei's meticulous care and attention, which was his greatest happiness. 。Went to the washroom and splashed some cold water on my face. I put on a pair of shorts and went out. 。Xu Lingwei was still busy in the kitchen. He walked over and gently supported her smooth shoulders from behind, affectionately calling out: "Little aunt" 。" Xu Lingwei was a little surprised, tilting her head and smiling: "What You miss your aunt after just a few days" "Hmm" 。"Xiang Tian wrapped his arms around Xu Lingwei from behind, pulling her into his embrace. "Little Aunt, do you think we're all going to die"Xu Lingwei's body stiffened slightly, and her face flushed, but upon hearing Xiang Tian's words, she knew that this kid was probably overthinking things again. 。"Yeah, everyone has to die, it's nothing. We just need to live each day happily." 。"Do you know"
Xu Lingwei pulled open her hand that was facing the sky, pouring the cooked hangover soup into a bowl. "It'll be ready to drink after it cools for a while."
"After I die, will I never see you again" Xiang Tian was still struggling with this question. 。This is what he thought of while taking a shower just now. 。Xu Lingwei said it well, living a good life every day is enough. But just now he suddenly thought that after death, everything will be over, and he will never see Xu Lingwei again, including Xiaolajiao and Ji Ruxue, they will all disappear, even his thoughts will vanish without a trace. 。That was truly terrifying! He wasn't afraid of death, but to completely lose the person he loved, that hurt him more than death ever could. 。"Foolish!" Xu Lingwei untied her apron and brought out the sobering soup from the kitchen, placing it on the dining table. "People are going to die anyway, do you really want to live forever" 。The freshly boiled soup was too hot, she put down the bowl and her fingers were already slightly red, she quickly blew on them. 。Then, he quickly walked over and took her hand, gently blowing on it for a while. 。"Yeah, I don't want to die, and I don't want you to die. I want to be with you forever, to see you every day." 。“I implored heaven with all my heart.” 。“Silly girl!” Hearing Xiang Tian’s words, Xu Lingwei felt warm inside. She retracted her hand from his and slowly stirred the hangover soup with a spoon, hoping it would cool down quickly. “Then unless you become a god, can you”“It doesn’t matter, I just don’t want to be separated from you.” 。"Toward the heavens once again tightly embraced Xu Lingwei's waist from behind, his face pressed against her wet, long hair, he said with deep affection. " 。Xu Lingwei smiled faintly, leaning against Xiang Tianhui's arms, her slender hand resting on Xiang Tianhui's large hand, "Auntie doesn't want to be separated from you either, but that's all for a long time later. Right now, we just need to live well." 。"
"Um 。Xu Lingwei's words were like a cool spring flowing into Tianxin's heart, washing away his anxiety. Hugging her tightly, he had no impure thoughts, only wanting time to stand still at this moment, forever with her. 。After finishing the hangover soup, she went into her room with a paper bag in hand. 。He placed the two stone pillows on the bed and examined them carefully. 。I looked over and over again, but I couldn't come up with anything. 。He suddenly remembered what Hao Zhanbing had once said, that the stone pillow could absorb his internal energy. 。Then, he infused the true dragon's spiritual energy into his palm and slowly covered it over the stone pillow. 。At that moment, a surprising scene unfolded. 。The true dragon's energy within him surged like a burst dam, frantically pouring into the stone pillow. In just a few breaths, nearly 10% of it was lost. 。And the surface patterns on that stone pillow were like the filaments in a white-hot light bulb, suddenly bursting forth with brilliant white light. 。Toward the heavens thought he had seen wrongly, so he simply turned off the lights and tried again. 。This time, it was even more obvious. After the stone pillow absorbed his inner True Dragon Qi, those intricate patterns suddenly bloomed with a very bright light, making the entire stone pillow like a giant incandescent bulb, illuminating the room as bright as day. 。He tried again on another stone pillow, but the result was the same. Compared to Xie Jiaming's stone pillow, this one absorbed the True Dragon Qi slower and emitted a less dazzling white light. 。After absorbing the genuine dragon's spiritual energy, when I touched these two stone pillows again, besides feeling a slight warmth, there were no other unusual occurrences. 。What on earth is going on He was completely baffled, but there was one thing he knew for sure: those patterns on the two stone pillows were definitely strange. 。Otherwise, those lights wouldn't have been able to come from the top. 。He found a piece of paper and carefully traced the patterns onto it. Upon comparison, he realized that the patterns on the two stone pillows were not very different. Looking closer at the stone pillows, Xie Jiaming's pillow had deeper carved patterns and more meticulous workmanship. 。Could it be because of the pattern Xiang Tian wasn't sure, but he had a way to verify. 。He went to the kitchen and found a screwdriver. He aimed it at the side of Li Hui's stone pillow and slashed down hard, leaving a deep scratch on the surface, severing several patterns directly. 。Then he turned off the lights, infused his hands with true dragon energy once more, and pressed down on the stone pillow. 。The true dragon's spirit energy remained unchanged, and no light appeared on the stone pillow again. 。It's really those patterns doing the work! His guess was right. 。His spirit lifted, he lay down on the stone pillow with a decisive and carefree air. 。One minute, two minutes... Five minutes passed, he still didn't feel the slightest drowsiness. After a few more minutes, he finally confirmed that this stone pillow had been completely destroyed by him, and he got up from the bed in one go. 。It seems that it's this pattern that's at work. 。But this is too amazing, an ordinary jade stone, with strange patterns carved beside it, can turn it into a deadly weapon, it's simply unbelievable and shocking. 。Toward the cold suddenly shivered, because he heard from that called Master Hong's words, these two stone pillows were very likely made by modern people. 。If that were really the case, then such stone pillows could be mass-produced. In a short time, there could be hundreds or even thousands of them on the market. The consequences would be so severe, just thinking about them is terrifying. 。Tuesday 。Upon receiving Xia Meng's notification, Xiang Tian rushed to the funeral home early that morning to attend the memorial service for Chen Yi, the headmaster of the martial arts school. 。The venue was solemn and dignified, the atmosphere heavy. 。Many people attended the funeral, including Chen Yi's relatives and friends, school teachers, and a large number of students. 。Xia Meng and Xiang Tian stood at the back of the crowd, having attended the entire memorial service. 。Stepping out of the hall, Xia Meng pointed to a thin boy of fifteen or sixteen and said to Tian, "His name is Liao Xuefeng. He's sixteen years old, with very good physical fitness and solid fundamentals. He has trained with me for almost a month and already has a strong sense of Qi." 。" And pointing to another girl who was a little younger, he said: “Her name is Chen Yue. She’s Chen Yi’s daughter. She has a good foundation too. With some good training over the years, she should make great progress." 。" Chen Yue held Chen Yi's portrait, crying heartbreakingly. Liao Xuefeng also looked mournful, accompanying Chen Yue by her side. Although he didn't cry, his expression showed deep sorrow. 。It's clear that they have a very deep feeling for Chen Yi. 。"Principal Chen was a good man, treating his students like his own children. I never expected this to happen so soon—" Even Xia Meng felt sorry for Chen Yi's passing, shaking his head repeatedly. 。He swept his gaze across the room and suddenly noticed two people who stood out. They were standing in a corner, whispering to each other, their faces beaming with smiles, which seemed utterly incongruous with the current atmosphere. 。"Who are they" Xia Meng asked, looking up at the sky. 。"The one wearing a white shirt is Xie Hongwei, one of the investors in the martial arts school. The other one is the school's vice principal, Huang Min" 。Xie Hongwei and Huang Min were chatting and laughing. After a while, Xie Hongwei seemed to notice Xiangtian's gaze and turned his head to look over here. Xiangtian had good eyesight and noticed that this guy had sharp eyes, he should also be a skilled martial artist. 。Just as I was about to ask Xia Meng about his background, a black Mercedes-Benz slowly stopped in front of the funeral home. 。The car door opened, and out of the driver's seat stepped a woman. 。A tailored black sheath dress, sexy and alluring black stockings, and a pair of fashionable wide-brimmed sunglasses covering most of her cheeks. 。It can be said that both in terms of figure and facial features, she can be associated with the word "beauty". 。especially the way she moved, with a natural alluring charm. The graceful curve of her round hips as they swayed was enough to make one's heart race just by looking at them. She was definitely a very sexy and captivating woman. 。All eyes were on her, but she ignored them and quickly walked up to Chen Yi's wife, taking off her sunglasses and holding her hand. She started talking to her. 。At that moment, Xiang Tian was shocked and shouted, "It's her!"e been looking for you all day. You actually came to me yourself." The old man laughed heartily, slapping Tian's shoulder several times until it hurt.He couldn't help but be amazed. The old man was so...
