"Are you telling the truth?" Xu Yun had heard of the bone-shrinking skill before. It didn't actually shrink the bones, but used inner Qi to shrink the gaps between the bones so that the bones in the body would be densely packed together. Naturally, the human body would shrink, so it was more accurate to call it the Body Shrinking Skill.
However, this kind of skill could only be achieved through long-term practice. Zhao Shuhai said he was born with it, which made Xu Yun somewhat suspicious.
Every morning and evening, people who practiced the Bone Shrinking Skill would lay down a cotton mat on the fragrant grass in an empty and deserted place. They would cross their legs, bend their waist, and do all kinds of soft exercises. This would make the muscles and joints of the whole body as soft as cotton. This was the foundation of the Bone Shrinking Skill, and it required long-term training from a young age.
How could Zhao Shuhai, who lived in Fisherman's Street, have the time? Most of his time was probably spent running around to make a living.
Wang Yi had also mentioned this skill to Xu Yun and the others, saying that it was a type of Shaolin martial arts. The initial stage of this skill was to press the legs, stretch the tendons, and lengthen the ligaments. Just like other Shaolin martial arts, one had to start from the basics and practice for at least twenty years to reach this level.
The internal practice of the bone-shrinking skill was to practice the four cardinal hours of the day, noon, morning, and night. After reaching the Qi circulation cycle, one had to refine the muscles and skin.
Only then could the Qi circulate through the organs, and finally the Qi would penetrate the bones of the entire body to refine the Invincible Vajra Body.
After attaining the Invincible Vajra Body, one could then practice the bone-shrinking skill to achieve great success. One could then retract the muscles and fold the bones as one wished, and the rest of the body could be retracted freely.
It was said that this kind of person could make their body like sponge. Even if they fell from a high-rise building, they wouldn't be injured.
Zhao Shuhai nodded with certainty and said seriously, "I'm telling the truth. Why don't you find something to test it on? If I'm lying, you'll be able to tell at a glance."
"You're born with it? You haven't practiced it before? "Xu Yun said," You really don't have the right to joke with us now. "
Zhao Shuhai said, "I'm not lying at all!"
To be honest, Zhao Shuhai's small head was pointy, and he did look like he was "gifted."
"Alright, I'll let you try!" Wu Yuandong then began to look for something. It was a wooden chair. Even a three-year-old child would not be able to squeeze through the gap at the back.
Zhao Shuhai took a deep breath and nodded. "If I can get through, you'll trust me, right?"
"That's right. As long as you can pass through, we'll believe you." Lin Suyin's curiosity was piqued. This was indeed not something an ordinary person could do.
Zhao Shuhai did as he said. He really walked to the side of the wooden chair. After some observation and testing, he found a special angle and gently turned his head. His head actually went through the gap of the chair. Then, under everyone's gaze, Zhao Shuhai's shoulders shrank, and his chest, abdomen, and hip bones shrunk by a large margin!
Just like that, he squeezed his body through that inconceivable gap in front of everyone's eyes!
This performance could really be considered a magic trick! Lin Suyin widened her eyes and couldn't believe what she was seeing. She thought that if it wasn't for the iron door of the room where they were locked up without any gaps or windows, this guy would have escaped long ago.
"Now, you should believe me, right?" Zhao Shuhai said. "As long as the gap at the bottom of the sea is smaller than the gap at the back of the chair, I can basically handle it. Also, I'm good at swimming. I grew up by the sea. The suction force of a small whirlpool won't be a problem for me. "
The gap at the bottom of the sea had to be big enough for the black suitcase to pass through, so it wouldn't be too small. With Zhao Shuhai's bone shrinking skill, he might be able to squeeze himself into the suitcase.
This was reliable. It was worth a try!
Xu Yun instantly saw the hope of success. "Zhao Shuhai, that thing will endanger the entire world. If you take it out, it's equivalent to saving your family. You have to complete this mission. "
"It's not a problem to complete this mission … but …" Zhao Shuhai suddenly slowed down.
"What? You still dare to raise conditions?! "Wu Yuandong glared at him." Don't be ungrateful. This is a chance for you to redeem yourself! "
Zhao Shuhai said, "President Wu, I'm also risking my life for this mission. I can't bring any oxygen equipment down there. If I get caught in it or get sucked in by the whirlpool, I'll die. Can't I have some conditions? "
"You …" Wu Yuandong was really speechless. It was true, this was a matter of life and death.
Xu Yun said, "As long as you can take the thing out, you can state any conditions."
"First of all, does what I did offset my sins?" Zhao Shuhai said, "If I help you take the item out successfully, you can forget about what I have done!"
Xu Yun was slightly stunned. "I'm afraid that this matter will be decided by the Hong Kong and Macau police. I can't promise you anything now, but I will try my best to help you apply."
"That won't do. I won't do anything without a guarantee." Zhao Shuhai said, "If I do such a dangerous thing, I'll still die because of my mistakes. Why should I take the risk? It's meaningless to me, isn't it?"
Facing Zhao Shuhai's words, no one could refute. It was the truth, so it was normal for Zhao Shuhai to have such conditions.
"Okay, I promise you." Yang Qi finally couldn't help but speak. "I'm a Hong Kong and Macau police officer. If you really have the ability, I'll promise you. As long as you take out the thing, I'll let you go on behalf of the Hong Kong and Macau police. "
Zhao Shuhai looked at Yang Qi. After confirming that she wasn't lying, he nodded. "I believe that you won't lie to me, but I can't believe that after you go back, your Hong Kong and Macau police officers won't agree and will arrange for people to arrest me."
"Then what do you want?" Yang Qi said, "I've already promised you that I won't touch you."
"So I have a second request. As long as I take out the thing, the people of the Three Lotus Association must arrange for me to leave Taipei." Zhao Shuhai said, "Arrange for my family to go to Canada first, then I'll go back to help you with this matter. After that, you must arrange for me to leave immediately!"
Although this request was a bit excessive, Lin Suyin didn't hesitate for a moment for Xu Yun. "Okay, the Three Lotus Association will definitely do what they promised."
Miss Lin said it herself, so Zhao Shuhai didn't doubt it. "Then there's the last request."
"Your appetite is a bit too big." Wu Yuandong said, "The Three Lotus Association has even agreed to your second unreasonable request. What else are you not satisfied with?"
"Since you've agreed to the unreasonable request, I believe that you'll agree to my third 'reasonable' request." Zhao Shuhai said, "My family will leave Taiwan Island because of this matter. At least give us a way out. I also want cash … ten million in cash as a reward for my life."
Hiss! This kid is really greedy. Wu Yuandong stared at him. "Let me tell you, this is impossible! Your life is not worth this money at all! "
"My life is not worth this money, but the things I can offer with my life are definitely worth far more than this money, right?!" Zhao Shuhai said, "Although I don't know what the Ebola virus weapon is, I can tell that this thing must be very dangerous and highly infectious. So the price I'm asking for should be very cheap."
Everyone was silent. Their eyes fell on Xu Yun. After all, this matter still needed Xu Yun to make the final decision.
"I believe that Gu Ming will sell this thing to others for ten times or even a hundred times more than what I'm asking for," Zhao Shuhai said, "My life is not worth anything, but the thing is. So I don't think my asking price is high."
Xu Yun finally nodded. For the safety of the world, he accepted it. It was his fault that he didn't know the bone-shrinking skill. If he knew it, he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble to beg others.
"We agree to your three conditions." Xu Yun said, "But I also hope that I won't see you again in the future. Do things beautifully. I've given you a chance. It's up to you to grasp it. "
