Chapter 194: Immortality of Warriors, Accident (Two chapters in one, only one chapter tonight) "What about the warriors?" In fact, when Lao Wang asked this question, he had become very calm and had no expectations for Du Ruo's answer. Perhaps out of reluctance, or perhaps with a last glimmer of hope, he still asked the question. "A warrior~" When he said this, Du Ruo's voice was a little drawn out. He didn't look at the other person, but looked at the old man who was practicing martial arts over there. After a while, he continued: "Buddhism is about transcendence, Taoism is about integration with nature, and martial arts should be about having a flawless body, replenishing oneself with qi, and having an immortal spirit. Perhaps it is the legendary three flowers gathering at the top of the head, five qi returning to the origin, forming a small universe with oneself, and thus achieving the goal of immortality." "should?" Lao Wang didn't understand what the concept of essence, energy and spirit was, nor did he know much about the Three Flowers and Five Qi. He had only heard of them before, but he could hear the hesitation and uncertainty in Du Ruo's words. "Well, it's just speculation. Since ancient times, Buddhists have had the idea that if one puts down the butcher knife, one can become a Buddha instantly. They have their own understanding of the eternity of the spirit. In addition, they have some religious beliefs in it, so they have their own understanding of becoming a Buddha. As for the Taoists, let alone anything else, Tang Chaokun naturally thanked them. She ascended to heaven at the age of 27 in broad daylight under the gaze of tens of thousands of people. It is said that she had been gathering qi since she was a child, practiced fasting at the age of 14, and then never ate meat for the rest of her life, eating elixirs. As for the martial arts, I have never heard of anyone using it to achieve immortality. Throughout the dynasties, countless amazing people have spent their entire lives, but in the end, they only extended their lifespans. No one knows how far they are from true immortality. " At this point, Du Ruo couldn't help but shake his head. In fact, he might not be doing this for immortality, but since he had already embarked on this path and had such conditions, no matter what the future held, he always wanted to climb up and take a look.
"Alas, immortality." Lao Wang withdrew his gaze from Du Ruo's expression and sighed. To be honest, he had seen countless people, but he really had no way of telling the truth from falsehood in Du Ruo's words. However, despite his disappointment, he still remembered the name Xie Ziran in his heart. With his power, he could find out many things clearly. "Actually, there's no need to think so much. If you really want to live forever, Buddhism should be the most suitable for you. Maybe you can give it a try." Du Ruo is actually rarely affected by external things now, so he came to his senses quickly and looked at Lao Wang with a playful expression. He didn't know Lao Wang's identity, but he could know his whereabouts at any time, and he could come up in person so quickly to test him, so he must be of a high status. He dared to swear that everything he said just now was true, at least he didn't talk nonsense, but the words he said were all picked out by Du Ruo, and he didn't say many things. Immortality cannot be explained in just a few words. There are too many things involved. If it were really that simple, the emperors in ancient times would definitely be the first to achieve immortality. "Haha~ Just kidding, I'm just curious." Lao Wang's eyes flickered for a moment, but he immediately waved his hands. "Alas, I am old now. If I sit for a long time, I need to move around. What Brother Du said today benefited me a lot. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay you generously." Old Wang stood up, bowed to Du Ruo as a token of gratitude, then walked back into the crowd and started communicating with those old men, but his steps were much lighter. Immortality means not wanting to give up status and power, but after receiving modern education, people only have some expectations for this ethereal legend but are not obsessed with it. He was very happy that Du Ruo could talk to him today. It was like pointing him in the right direction, but it was not what he expected. As Du Ruo just said, if Buddhism wants to transcend, it is to give up oneself. What is the use of such longevity? What does it have to do with power? Those who pursued the immortality of the body had already turned to dust long ago, and he did not believe that he could still pursue the path of martial arts at his age. As for the magical powers displayed by Du Ruo, they were probably the result of his martial arts training, so they had nothing to do with him. Naturally, other people would come to understand Du Ruo. It would be best if he could serve the country, but if Du Ruo is unwilling, then just don't let him bring harm to the people. However, from his observation just now, coupled with the harmonious family of Du Ruo and the affectionate relationship between Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan, it shows that Du Ruo is not the kind of person who would easily go astray for the sake of immortality. Because Du Ruo has concerns in his heart, and if you have concerns, you will inevitably have concerns. People like this just need a little attention.
"Honey, is there something wrong with this person?" Xiang Yuanyuan watched Lao Wang return to his original appearance and continue communicating with those old men. She couldn't help but put her head close to Du Ruo's ear and asked softly. The two of them did not avoid her during their conversation just now, and she was listening the whole time. Even a dumb person could see that there was something wrong with their awkward conversation. Coupled with the tiger shadow on Du Ruo's body last night, to be honest, she was still a little uneasy. "Well, it should be someone from the official department. Maybe someone noticed it during the last typhoon. Don't worry. It may not be a bad thing. At least it can save a lot of trouble in the future." Du Ruo looked at Xiang Yuanyuan, a smile appeared on her face, and then she explained it to him softly. This is also the reason why he did not avoid Xiang Yuanyuan just now. They will definitely become a family in the future, so Du Ruo would not hide too much from Xiang Yuanyuan. "Well, except for the system." Du Ruo added in his heart. "Then... is the matter of immortality also true?" Xiang Yuanyuan squinted her eyes with curiosity, immortality? She used to think Du Ruo was just a martial arts enthusiast, but as she got to know him better, she discovered that Du Ruo seemed to be a master. However, it was not until yesterday that she discovered Du Ruo's magical qualities. At the same time, she also understood why some people would come to Du Ruo specifically to ask about immortality. If she and Du Ruo were just ordinary friends and not a couple, perhaps she would find time to ask Du Ruo if he was a monster in disguise. But now she just wanted to watch over Du Ruo silently, and then imagine that Du Ruo's behavior was relatively normal. "It doesn't really matter whether it's true or not. In fact, who can really tell? I can only say that this is a beautiful wish." Du Ruo didn't answer too much, everything was just speculation. Actually, he is quite far away from that. No one can confirm it until we get to that step. "Will you live forever? If it comes to that, will you abandon me?" Xiang Yuanyuan looked serious. To be honest, she was already scared. That Kun Dao ascended to heaven at the age of 27. If Du Ruo reached that level in a few years, would he abandon her? Xiang Yuanyuan couldn't help but think wildly, because many of Du Ruo's behaviors were far beyond what ordinary people could imagine. "Let it go. Didn't I just say that? Martial arts pursues the sanctification of the physical body, which is different from what I said about Buddhism. Practicing martial arts can only lead to immortality at best." Du Ruo smiled and tried to comfort Xiang Yuanyuan, but after seeing Xiang Yuanyuan still looking at him seriously, Du Ruo also looked serious and said seriously: "The purpose of immortality is to be free and unfettered. You are the anchor of my heart. Only you can hold me back. No matter what the future holds, wherever you are, I will always be around." What Du Ruo said could be considered a promise. Du Ruo didn't know what the future would be like, but he knew that he couldn't give up everything to pursue the so-called immortality. "Yes! Husband, let's have a child." Xiang Yuanyuan neither agreed nor refuted Du Ruo, but suddenly buried her head in Du Ruo's neck, then exhaled hot air from her mouth and spoke emotionally words that she had never said before. "Hey! Xiao Du, let's go back. I'm almost done for today." Before Du Ruo could answer, Xiang Yuanzhang came back from the side and said something to Du Ruo. "Grandpa, do you want me to perform a show?" Du Ruo had originally planned to show off his prowess in front of others today, but he didn't expect that Xiang Yuanzhang would only mention him briefly today, and didn't mention his proficiency in martial arts at all, which made him think about how to perform. "Forget it, forget it. These people are old and have blurry eyes. What can they see? There is no need." Xiang Yuanzhang waved his hand and spoke nonchalantly.
If it were yesterday, he would have let Du Ruo perform, but after seeing the tiger that Du Ruo possessed yesterday, he no longer had this idea in mind. Just like ordinary people who suddenly become rich, they certainly hope to return home in glory. But if the wealth is too huge, they would want to hide their wealth and keep a low profile, not wanting anyone else to know. "Okay, I'll listen to Grandpa." Du Ruo smiled and nodded. Anyway, he was just a tool today and would listen to Xiang Yuanzhang in everything. "Ah, don't touch him, call a doctor, make a phone call!!" Du Ruo was talking to Xiang Yuanzhang, and then walked outside with a few old men. However, when they reached the edge of the park, a scream was heard, attracting everyone's attention. Everyone looked over and saw that the source of the exclamation was the small park in front that Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan felt was abstract. The parallel bars, which were originally surrounded by many old men making a fuss, were now surrounded by even more people, and those people were talking at the same time. They just said they would call a doctor or make a phone call, but no one actually took any action. They just took a step back. "Eh? What's going on with them?" At this time, Xiang Yuanzhang was attracted instead, and walked over while talking. When the other old men saw Xiang Yuanzhang walking over, they also surrounded him. During the Chinese New Year, everyone is keen on watching the fun. If you encounter one but don’t understand the whole story, you will probably not be able to sleep for several days. "Oh, this guy was showing off just now, and suddenly fell off the parallel bars. Then he lost his balance and fell down. I don't know what's going on now." An old lady nearby was holding a Tai Chi sword in her hand, stretching her neck to look inside, while explaining something to everyone. As soon as you hear him, you can tell that the other party is an old intelligence agent. Even if he has just been practicing Tai Chi sword, he can still keep an eye on all directions and hear all directions. At this time, Xiang Yuanzhang and a few others had separated the crowd and saw the whole situation inside. The old man who was doing the push-ups on the parallel bars was now slumped on the ground, with one of his legs twisted unnaturally, and blood at the corner of his mouth. He kept wailing, and there was blood in his mouth. He did not look as dazzling and majestic as he was in the crowd in front of him, but rather looked very embarrassed. The old man and the old woman who were causing the commotion in front were shouting various calls for a doctor or an ambulance, but they were not taking any action and were just watching from a distance. "I'll go take a look. Yuanyuan, you call the ambulance." Du Ruo said something at this time, then walked forward to the old man under the parallel bars and began to check his physical condition. He was not looking for trouble, but he had some ideas in his mind. Perhaps he felt pity for the old man on the ground, or perhaps it was a test. Anyway, he did not care too much about it. The old man's face was pale, with blood at the corners of his mouth. He looked really scary. However, after checking, Du Ruo found that he was just weak due to old age. As for the abnormal twist of his foot, it was just because he fell and sprained his ankle, which dislocated the ankle. The blood at the corner of his mouth was probably caused by his teeth hitting the parallel bars after he fell. It looked serious, but it was not a big deal in Du Ruo's eyes. "Old man, please be patient for a moment. I will help you straighten your bones." Du Ruo said this, then clasped his old ankles and calves with both hands. "Click~" There wasn't much movement involved, and Du Ruo's old ankle had recovered by just pulling and pushing. "Old man, it's just a sprain. Now the bone has been straightened. There's no problem. Go home and stew some pig's feet to replenish your body. You still have to do things within your ability in the future."
Du Ruo squatted on the ground, said something to the old man with a smile, and then prepared to get up and leave. "Hey~ You can't leave. You have to take me to the hospital. If there are any problems afterwards, you will be responsible." Even so, the originally pale old man didn't bother to feel the situation on his feet. Instead, he grabbed Du Ruo's hand with a move beyond his age. Then he looked at Du Ruo seriously, as if to say, "Facts aside, if you help me fix my bones, won't you be responsible if something goes wrong?" "..." Du Ruo was speechless, pursed his lips, and then glanced around, as if waiting for the old men and women watching around to come out and testify for him. Unfortunately, as he looked around, except for the old men who had just walked over with Du Ruo, everyone else took a step back, and some old men were even ready to leave. "Hey, old man Zhang, it was Brother Du who helped you fix your bones just now, don't be ungrateful and try to blackmail him." The old man who was practicing Baguazhang and had just practiced martial arts with Xiang Yuanzhang came out at this time and spoke loudly about justice. "But he connected my bones. If I feel uncomfortable, he has to take responsibility. He was the one who broke my bones." The old man on the ground was being unreasonable at this time. He was already a scoundrel anyway, so he didn't care if he became even more scoundrel. "Oh, then. Sorry, I will restore you to your original state." At this time, Du Ruo still had a smile on his face. One hand was holding the old man's calf, and the other hand was holding his ankle. While talking and laughing, Du Ruo exerted force with both hands, and with a "click", the old man's feet became irregular shapes again. "what!!!!" The old man on the ground screamed again, this time it was louder and more miserable. It was obvious that Du Ruo had broken the old man's ankle, which had already been straightened, with just a wave of his hand. However, everyone around him pursed their lips and no one said anything. "Hello, we are the police. We just happened to be passing by. We have seen what happened just now. Why don't you leave first? We will handle it later." The old man on the ground was still screaming. At this time, two people in plain clothes squeezed in. One of them took out his ID, waved it in front of Du Ruo, and then made a gesture of invitation. He did not take Du Ruo to the police station, but asked Du Ruo to leave immediately. (End of this chapter)
