“Uncle, we’ve come here to stay for a while. Do you mind?” Luo Feiying said.
"Hehe! I'm overjoyed that you've come to keep this old man company," Luo Beichen laughed heartily.
Looking at Song Hao and then at Luo Feiying, Luo Beichen seemed to understand something, and stroked his beard, laughing heartily.
"Uncle, what are you laughing at?" Luo Feiying asked, blushing.
"I'm not laughing at you, I'm praising your good taste!" Luo Beichen said with a smile.
"Uncle, what are you saying! If you keep talking nonsense, I'm leaving." Luo Feiying stood up, her face flushed, as if to leave.
"Don't go! Don't go! I won't say anymore! I won't say anymore!" Luo Beichen quickly pulled Luo Feiying down to sit.
Song Hao scratched his head, thinking, "What's going on here?!" He looked extremely awkward.
As evening approached, after dinner, Luo Feiying arranged for Song Hao to stay in a guest room.
“I’m not lying to you, am I? You live here, even satellites can’t find you,” Luo Feiying said.
"It's a great place! Thank you!" Song Hao said gratefully.
"Alright, you should rest now. I need to talk to my uncle for a bit. See you tomorrow!" With that, Luo Feiying closed the door and left.
"This girl is really hard to fathom. Although she brought me here, she still has her own purpose. This Luo Beichen has a kind face and is probably a true hermit. He can't possibly harm me. But this Luo Feiying is full of schemes, so I should always be wary of her." Song Hao thought to himself, feeling a bit dizzy, and then he went to sleep.
In the living room, Luo Feiying kept Luo Beichen company while they drank tea and chatted.
"Ying'er, how have you been lately?" Luo Beichen asked, taking a sip of tea.
"It's both good and bad!" Luo Feiying sighed.
"Oh!" Luo Beichen didn't ask any more questions, but instead said with a sigh, "You are still young. Don't follow in your father's footsteps. In the end, you will only harm yourself and others. Your father has ruined the peerless magic needles of my Luo family. Doctors have the responsibility to save people and help the world, but he used his skills to harm people and make money. Such behavior is against the natural order and will be punished."
"Uncle, let's not talk about these things! I've come today to ask you for a favor," Luo Feiying said.
“Sigh! You still don’t realize the consequences of the Luo family’s current actions. If you don’t want to hear it, I won’t say any more. I just hope that you and your brother won’t get stuck in the quagmire like your father. If you need my help with anything, just say so,” Luo Beichen said, shaking his head.
“Uncle, you and Dad each have your own strengths in the Luo Family Magic Needle, especially the ‘needle technique’ that you have independently cultivated on this basis, which no one in the world can do. I think…” Luo Feiying hesitated for a moment and said, “I would like to ask you to demonstrate it once.”
"No!" Luo Beichen refused decisively. "This acupuncture technique is too mind-numbing. I have long recognized the harm it brings and have not used it for many years. It was also a set of acupuncture techniques that I developed out of curiosity in my early years. It is not a cure for the world. I have decided not to use it anymore. Otherwise, how would I be any different from your father?"
“I didn’t ask you, Uncle, to use this acupuncture technique to harm people. This technique can bewitch the mind and has a hypnotic effect, and can extract any secrets from the person being treated. I just want you to use it on Song Hao once,” Luo Feiying said.
"What did you say!" Luo Beichen exclaimed in surprise, "You really have followed your father into the demonic path. Why did you suddenly use acupuncture on Song Hao?"
"Uncle, please don't misunderstand. Here's what happened: Song Hao is my new boyfriend, and I... I love him very much. I want to know if there are other women in his heart," Luo Feiying said, blushing.
“Sigh! You’re so childish! Since you like him and he’s committed to you, you should trust him. To hypnotize him with acupuncture and ask him if he has another woman in his heart, how could you even think of that? No way! That’s disrespectful to him, I can’t do that,” Luo Beichen shook his head.
"Uncle, please, just this once, and don't let it happen again. I just want to know how deep his love for me is, and I don't want to be deceived," Luo Feiying pleaded.
Luo Beichen waved his hand, but did not respond.
"Uncle!" Luo Feiying cried, "If you don't agree, I'll have to break up with him. I don't want to spend my life with a man who has too many secrets. I just want to know what he's thinking, not hurt him. These days, people's hearts are unpredictable. If he really has another woman, wouldn't I be the one who's harmed? Uncle, please help me. I really can't bear the thought of the person I love keeping secrets from me."
"Why are you crying, child! I hate it when you cry. Fine, I'll give you the acupuncture once, but let's make it clear, this is the only time, and it won't happen again," Luo Beichen said helplessly.
"Good uncle!" Luo Feiying excitedly hugged Luo Beichen and kissed him.
"You silly child!" Luo Beichen shook his head and laughed, "So that's why you brought someone with you today. You were planning something of your own."
“However…” Luo Beichen added, “You can’t openly use magic on someone; you have to do it without their knowledge. Otherwise, they will become suspicious and change their attitude towards you. It would be bad if you overdid it.”
“That’s easy!” Luo Feiying said. “I’ve already put drugs in his food. He’s in a deep sleep right now, which will make things convenient for us.”
"You little devil, you planned this all along. Remember, be nicer to them in the future. Sigh! I'll play the villain this time." Luo Beichen slapped his thigh and said.
Song Hao lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep. With his whole body relaxed, the Qi and blood in his body began to circulate along the twelve meridians again. The effects of those medicinal seedlings and stone pillars were truly miraculous. As long as he was quiet, the Qi and blood in his body would clearly circulate on their own, something Song Hao could feel, even in his dreams.
At this moment, Song Hao felt a stagnation in the flow of Qi and blood through his meridians as it reached the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian. The heart governs the mind, and this blockage in the Heart Meridian made Song Hao, already in a dream, even more drowsy. However, subconsciously, Song Hao possessed a force that allowed the Qi and blood to surge through the obstruction in the Heart Meridian, or rather, a natural inertia to ensure smooth flow. Suddenly, the Qi and blood overcame the blockage, and his mind felt refreshed…
"Huh!?" Suddenly, someone beside him exclaimed softly, "His meridians and blood are so strong! He was able to break through the Shenmen and Lingdao acupoints that had just been sealed on his own."
Song Hao was startled and had already regained consciousness. However, he suddenly felt that the Shaohai and Qingling acupoints on his Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian were restricted, and the Shenmen and Lingdao acupoints that he had previously broken through were sealed again. His consciousness became disordered, and he fell into unconsciousness again.
At this moment, Luo Beichen, who was standing by the bedside performing acupuncture, was extremely surprised. The two Soul-Seizing Needles, which a normal person could not withstand, were broken through by the sealed acupoints by this young man on his own. Such strong meridian qi and blood could not only be felt by himself under the needle, but also seemed to be felt by this young man in his sleep, and he could control it to subconsciously break through the meridians and acupoints.
Out of curiosity, Luo Beichen applied two more needles to seal the qi and blood in the meridians before the acupuncture began to take effect.
“Although the Qi and blood in this person’s meridians are strong, they are not powerful. He shouldn’t be someone with internal martial arts cultivation. Could it be a kind of innate peculiar physique?” Luo Beichen asked Luo Feiying, who was waiting on the side, puzzled. “Come and ask him. The acupuncture should have activated the deep-seated consciousness area in his brain.”
Upon hearing this, Luo Feiying was overjoyed and stepped forward, somewhat excited, finally about to uncover all the secrets in Song Hao's mind.
"What's your name?" Luo Feiying asked tentatively.
"Song Hao!" Song Hao murmured in response.
"That's great!" Luo Feiying was so excited she almost jumped for joy.
"Uncle, these are just his personal thoughts. Do you think it's alright for you to say this..." Luo Feiying looked at Luo Beichen and said with some difficulty.
"Alright, alright! I won't listen to your secrets. However, Song Hao's meridians have extremely strong Qi and blood. Given time, they can break through the meridians and acupoints on their own. You need to ask him quickly, otherwise, once the meridians and acupoints are broken, the acupuncture will be ineffective, and he might give irrelevant answers when he realizes it. I was afraid of hurting him, so I only used four needles, not all seven. I want him to feel normal when he wakes up tomorrow. Don't think we've tampered with him, or it will be very embarrassing," Luo Beichen reminded him.
"I understand, you should go now." Luo Feiying hurriedly pushed Luo Beichen out of the room.
Turning around, Luo Feiying smiled smugly and said, "Song Hao, let's see if you can escape the Buddha's palm!"
Luo Feiying leaned down, hesitated for a moment, and softly called to Song Hao, "Song Hao, do you...do you have a girl you like?"
