After waking up, Lou Cheng's memory gradually became clearer during the doctor's examination. He remembered the young man with black hair mixed with silver strands. He remembered the feeling of the Jindan he emitted. He remembered the Nine Words Formula he used. He remembered that he was better at long-range attacks and his body was at most at the beginning of the Dan stage.
All the bits and pieces converged. Lou Cheng had a preliminary judgment of this.
He was a cultivator!
He came for the Jindan of the Longhu Immortal that he got!
As for whether he had accomplices and whether there would be more attackers, it was unknown for now.
Therefore, for his own safety, for the safety of his parents, for the safety of Ke, and for the safety of his relatives and friends, he had to tell the whole story to his master and the Dragon King. He had to ensure that he could accurately lock on and cut off all future troubles.
Based on this, he had to summon up his courage and tell Ke the whole secret. It was an opportunity to untie the knot in his heart and give her a reminder.
Besides, after such a close brush with death, he really didn't want to lie to Ke anymore.
"What's the secret?" Yan Zheke blinked her eyes in confusion.
What else do I not know about Cheng?
Lou Cheng said in a hoarse voice,
"I've never been a person with martial arts talent. The reason why I can suddenly have the strength and meditation is because I had a lucky encounter."
"Lucky encounter?" Yan Zheke asked in confusion. For now, she didn't have a deep feeling. It was like listening to a fairy tale told by Andersen.
"Yes." Lou Cheng took a breath and laughed at himself. "After hitting on you at the entrance of the Martial Arts Club that day, I thought that after the summer vacation of the third year of high school, my body would be seriously wasted and I would be very tired after running a few steps. Once I started the martial arts class, I would definitely be embarrassed in front of you. So, I prepared myself at the last minute and went running at night by the lake. At the Little Seven Cruises, I saw a half-frozen, half-black black carp. Its abdomen had a cultivator's Jindan like a star from the Longhu Immortal."
At first, Yan Zheke couldn't help but smile. She thought that this idiot Cheng was really stupid, especially when it involved her. When the words "black carp", "Jindan", and "cultivator" entered her ears, she became thoughtful. "You absorbed that Jindan and got the talent for meditation and abnormal strength?" "I didn't absorb it.
It entered my body by itself. At that time, at that time, I was scared out of my wits. I was afraid that I would become a half-frozen, half-black salted fish. Later, I found that I was fine, so I decided to wait and see if it was really a lucky encounter. It could make me meditate quickly, and when my strength dropped to a certain level, it would spare some energy to help me make up for it. "Lou Cheng described what had happened at that time.
Salted fish? Although Yan Zheke felt a little complicated, she couldn't help but burst out laughing. In the end, half guessing and half confirming, she asked in one breath,
"The awakening of your supernatural ability also came from the Jindan? You practiced the Nine Words Formula and the simplified physical invulnerability so quickly because of this? Was the person who attacked you a cultivator? "
"Yes, when I was suppressed to the limit by Ye Youting and couldn't make up for it, the surface of the Jindan disintegrated and let the Ice Force come out with the 'Brutal Blizzard'. I let the Fire Force stay in my body and merge with my body. That was the first awakening. You know the Nine Words Formula, it's one of the core of Longhu Immortal's practice. As long as there was some charm, I could directly master it with the help of the Jindan … That person, that person should be a descendant of Longhu Immortal. Since he formed the Jindan, his spirit could initially interfere with reality …" Lou Cheng panted and frankly told her about the influence the Jindan had on him.
Before Yan Zheke asked again, he continued intermittently, "But most of the time, I tried not to rely on the Jindan … After all, it's just an external object. If I really want to improve, I can only rely on myself. I can only temper my body step by step and polish my will … Almost all the battles, as long as it's not a life or death battle, as long as I can still control myself, I try to fight according to what I have learned, pre-judgment, and improvisation …"
He spoke slowly, focusing on his own efforts in martial arts and occasionally mixing in some information about the Jindan to weaken the negative effects with words.
This wasn't because he was scheming, but because he valued it too much and was afraid of losing it.
Yan Zheke listened in a daze. For some reason, she felt that the Cheng in front of her was a stranger.
This was a Cheng that she had never seen before …
This was a Cheng that she couldn't even imagine in the past …
He hid it so well …
At this moment, Lou Cheng's image in her heart changed slightly. Cracks appeared in the "martial artist" that she had always thought to be extremely talented and talented.
"I've wanted to tell you since a long time ago, but I didn't have the confidence to do so. I wanted to wait until I reached the Inhuman stage before telling you. That way, even if I don't have the Jindan, I can still take care of our future. But after I advanced, other than practicing Lament of the Ice Queen using the Jindan, I haven't used it at all. Well, that includes mastering Ice Mirror and mastering All-Seeing God. So I was thinking, thinking, thinking, that I should wait until the Nine Words Formula is complete before telling you," said Lou Cheng as he pondered. He didn't hide his emotions at different stages.
"Why wait until the Nine Words Formula is complete?" asked Yan Zheke, puzzled.
"Aren't you born with a deficiency? Cultivation and martial arts have different beginnings. Who knows, there might be a way to make up for your problem. I didn't tell you before because I was afraid that if the hope was too high, the disappointment would be greater, "answered Lou Cheng seriously.
Yan Zheke pursed her lips and looked at Lou Cheng with a complicated gaze. Thousands of thoughts ran through her mind. In the end, she only cursed under her breath,
"You idiot …"
After saying those words, her mind broke free from the shock brought by the secret. She began to recall the past and examine her own emotions.
Initially, she had a good impression of Cheng because of his outstanding martial arts talent. It made her, who had no hope of walking down this path, want to substitute for him …
But there was that tiny bit of liking. It was because I had a good chat with him. It was because he shared with me bits and pieces of the Warrior Sage Challenge Tournament, making me feel like I was walking down the path of glory step by step. It was because of his impromptu performance. It was because of his rapid transformation from unfamiliar to familiar …
As for her true liking, it was because of his hard work, his silly actions, his high regard for her, the beauty of mutual love, his persistence, his hard work, his willpower, and his values that were compatible with her …
Among all these, the shadow of Jindan became fainter and fainter.
"Ke?" Seeing that his little fairy was silent for a long time after "scolding", Lou Cheng worriedly called her.
Yan Zheke frowned slightly and waved her hand. She scolded him in a delicate voice,
"Don't interrupt. I'm thinking about something!"
… Lou Cheng immediately shut up and waited anxiously, unable to move.
After a few minutes, Yan Zheke puffed up her cheeks and stared at him,
"Who said you don't have martial arts talent? Impromptu combat talent is also martial arts talent! Jindan can't help you with this! "
"Yes, yes, yes!" Lou Cheng was relieved to hear this and hurried to agree.
Yan Zheke's eyes turned up and her dimples shone.
"I used to fantasize about adventures, thinking that I could make up for my congenital deficiency and become a heroine. You got Jindan and became a master step by step from an ordinary person with no cultivation talent. You met my expectations perfectly. Hey, I'm so jealous of you!"
Now that she said it, he felt more immersive than before! Isn't a girl with congenital deficiency the same as a boy with average cultivation talent?
What Heavenly Son of the Age? What once in 20 years? What dazzling brilliance? I can only look up to you.
Speaking of this, the girl smiled sweetly,
"Didn't I say last time that the gap between us was getting bigger? Now it's gone! Are you disappointed? "
She seemed to have let go of a small knot in her heart.
"That's great!" Lou Cheng could hear the emotional changes in Yan Zheke's voice. He could feel her heartfelt voice and was completely relieved. He felt that the shadow that had been entrenched in his heart for several years had disappeared. He felt refreshed and his mind was lively. There was no more stagnation.
"Great your head!" Yan Zheke scolded with a smile. Then she asked with concern, "Did you tell Coach Shi about this? I'm afraid he'll be disappointed in you if you keep hiding it from him. "
"He found out long ago …" Lou Cheng answered embarrassedly.
"He's indeed a Mighty One with physical invulnerability …" Yan Zheke lowered her head "shamefully".
Cheng and I are sleeping in the same bed. Why didn't he find out earlier and give him a fright?
Not wanting to dwell on this topic, she changed the topic.
"Your phone was damaged in the explosion. I saved your number and got a new one for you. Well, I haven't told Uncle and Auntie about this yet. I'm afraid they'll be shocked. Don't worry, the military has sent people to protect them secretly. These two days, I logged into your QQ and WeChat and told your cousins to tell them that your injuries aren't serious and that you just need to rest …"
Speaking of this, Yan Zheke suddenly remembered something. Her dimples deepened instantly, and her eyes were overflowing with obvious laughter.
Priest, Hipster, and Chihuahua are good at coming up with nicknames!
When Cheng was seriously injured and unconscious, she didn't have the mood to think about it. Words about it would only cause grief. The more she thought about it, the funnier it was!
"What's wrong?" Lou Cheng noticed his wife's strange behavior and asked in confusion.
It was right not to tell Dad and Mom. With such injuries, they would be scared to death. Besides, they were old and not martial artists. If they weren't careful, the whole family would be hospitalized.
It wasn't like Xiushan had never experienced something like this. There was once a child who was in a car accident. His grandfather panicked and had a cerebral hemorrhage.
"Nothing, nothing." Yan Zheke pursed her lips and shook her head. "I was just thinking about the speculations about your injury. Some said that you improved too quickly and your foundation was unstable. Some said that after you defeated Zhi Tong, you went to dozens of outsides and played all night with drugs while you were mentally and physically exhausted. That's why you had problems …"
"That's too much nonsense!" Lou Cheng said, annoyed and amused at the same time.
"They also said that you tried to awaken your supernatural ability for the third time but failed miserably. That's a good reason …" Yan Zheke was about to continue when Geezer Shi, Dragon King, Ji Jianzhang, and the others rushed over and filled the single ward.
Lou Cheng repeated what he had said before in a concise and comprehensive manner, emphasizing the enemy's identity as a Cultivator.
"Jindan? You got a Jindan? "Geezer Shi asked, his eyes wide open.
Jindan was a highly condensed essence, qi, spirit, and will. It couldn't be kept for long. Once its "master" died, it would either explode out of control or slowly dissipate in a dozen days.
Lou Cheng was even more surprised and said blankly,
"Master, didn't I tell you before?"
"I thought it was a Natal Artifact …" Geezer Shi's voice trailed off as he felt that he had misunderstood something in the past.
Before he could finish, he noticed that Ning Zitong, Ji Jianzhang, and the others were looking at him, as if they wanted to laugh.
Among them, Dragon King's eyes were clearly saying, "How did you survive in the war-torn zones?"
