The black air and white air in the good-evil tripod entwined each other, spiraled up, and kept gathering instead of scattering. The scene looked like a Tai Chi diagram, containing the secrets of heaven.
Ning Tao sat cross-legged in front of the good-evil tripod, and ran the ABC of elementary cultivation method over and over again. The good energy and evil energy within the tripod came into the point between his eyebrows bit by bit, and then absorbed and refined by his Niwan acupoint...
The whole night went by.
After the practice, Ning Tao entered his body world again to have a look at his Niwan acupoint. His Niwan acupoint was still the ugly mire without obvious changes, but the trace of black and white spiritual power had become stronger.
He tried again to transform the spiritual power into alchemy fire, but failed in succession. On one occasion, however, he felt hot in his palm, which excited him. Although he still failed, it
At Chaotian Gate. Jiang Hao stood on the ancient gate tower, watching the green water of the Jialing River rolling forward. She was in an upright position, being a superb view in the eyes of others. Ning Tao climbed up the gate tower. "Here you are," Jiang Hao began but she didn't look back. Walking over to her in silence, Ning Tao gazed into the distance. At the end of his line of sight, the green water of the Jialing River met the brown water of the Yangtze River, the clear merging with the turbid. "You go first," said Jiang Hao, turning her eyes to Ning Tao's face. "No, you go first," refused Ning Tao. Su Ya's kidnapper warned him not to call the police. For the safety of Su Ya, he had to consider whether to tell Jiang Hao about it. Jiang Hao remained silent for a moment before she asked, "Did you go to Lin Qingyu's house last night?" Ning Tao paused for a
Knock! Knock! Knock! All sounds in the room died away when the glass was knocked. "Guys, I'm a worker in this quarry," Ning Tao claimed loudly. "My boss said it was too hot and he asked me to bring you some iced beer. Can you open the window for me?" No one in the room responded. "It's weird. I heard someone speak just now. Why is there no sound now?" Ning Tao muttered. "Damn, forget it. I can have this stewed duck all by myself." "Wait a minute." Someone in the room finally answered. After that there were footsteps behind the window, and then the sound of opening the window latch. Ning Tao suddenly got nervous, clenching tightly the rock in his right hand. It was, after all, the first time he had ever done anything like this, and it related to Su Ya's life. Thus, no matter how good his psychological quality was, he would be tense. The window opened a little and a bald hea
Ning Tao climbed to the top of the tree and peeped out from the thick branches and leaves to observe the quarry. In the quarry, several conveyor belts were operating, and so were forklifts and sand trucks. No one went to look at the small building, and no one came after them. This situation was normal, because the workers in the quarry were ordinary workers, not the companions of those bad guys who kidnapped Su Ya. Just as Ning Tao was about to take his eyes off the quarry and climb down, a taxi suddenly appeared on the road outside the quarry gate. His pupils contracted instantly and locked on to the taxi. The taxi was the one he had met outside the Happy Community, and though he couldn't see the man in the taxi, he could tell that the driver was Brother Meng, who had just given him a call. "The Brother Meng called and said the deal was going to happen in 40 minutes but not in the evening. He must have sensed something before
The smell of blood filled the small room. The man with a scarred face and the bald man were dead. Both had their carotid arteries cut open, bleeding all over the floor. It was not hard to imagine the situation— Brother Meng entered the door and found the hostage gone, while two of his people were lying unconscious on the ground. Without hesitation, he pulled out his knife and cut the two men's necks. This was murder. "Do you know what kind of man you're dealing with? How dangerous it was! If you weren't lucky, you and the girl would be lying on the ground!" Jiang Hao broke the silence between her and Ning Tao. Ning Tao's mood didn't fluctuate a bit as he heard such words in such an environment. He was a go-between of good and evil who had both good and evil spiritual roots. His ability to adapt to such scenes was beyond the ordinary imagination. "Promise me you won't act rashly again, okay?" Jiang Hao said.
Ning Tao looked at Shen Jun with a calm face and no sign of emotion. "Was it you who hurt my friend?" Shen Jun demanded in an icy voice. "Yes," Ning Tao answered courtly. "Do you want to fight back?" "I hit you?" Shen Jun let out a sneer. "Humph! Do you think I'm your level? To fight back, I don't even need to hit you myself." "Ning Tao, do you know who he is?" Yang Hai spat. "How dare you speak to him like that?" "I don't know who he is," Ning Tao replied and shook his head. "But I know the people who can be friends with you won't be at a high level." "Very good! Ning Tao, I was gonna just ask you to get down on your knees and apologize to my friend. You can't blame me now that you're looking for trouble," Shen Jun burst out, took out his cell phone and made a call. As soon as the phone was connected, he cut to the chase and said, "Captain Chen, there is a criminal who once hurt someone. Come here w
Two police cars roared up and stopped in front of the Second Paris. The doors of the cars opened at the same time, and eight uniformed policemen got out and gathered around a middle-aged man. Shen Jun strode over to them. The middle-aged man was Captain Chen, who Shen Jun had mentioned, His name was Chen Guojun, and he was the police captain of this precinct. "Hi, Captain Chen," Shen Jun greeted Chen Guojun. Chen Guojun nodded politely and respectfully asked, "Young Master Shen, how's the former director these days? I haven't seen him for a while and I miss him." "My dad is fine. He's just a little bored because he's retired and has nothing to do," Shen Jun replied. "The day before yesterday, he talked about you with me. He said he wanted to recommend you to the superior. You know, my dad's retired, but his connections remain. What's more, my uncle is still in the municipal party committee. You can r
Ning Tao thought Lin Qinghua's lab was in the office building he had visited, but Lin Qingyu drove him to a botanical garden in the suburbs. The botanical garden belonged to Blueprint Biotechnology Company. The vast hillside was covered with a variety of common and uncommon herbs. There were also dozens of modern greenhouses with precious plants for scientific research. Lin Qinghua's lab was in the botanical garden. It was a small composite building, with a lot of silver materials and blue toughened glass. It was a bit of science fiction. The gate was a silver metal gate with a stainless steel plaque that said "Asking the Heaven Building" instead of "XX Lab". Ning Tao stopped in front of the stainless steel plaque and asked curiously, "Asking the Heaven Building. Why does your brother's lab have such a strange name?" "I used to also wonder why this lab had such a strange name, and I asked my brother about it, but
The moment the lights went out, Ning Tao turned his eyes to the door of the office, but it was so dark that he couldn't see anything. "What happened?" Lin Qingyu momentarily got nervous. Ning Tao suddenly realized that something was wrong. He hurriedly put the capsule back into the cut bluish "clay" and put it in his pants pocket. Whistling! Suddenly there was a sound of wind. An unprecedented strong sense of crisis came over Ning Tao in a flash! He instinctively ducked aside the moment he heard the wind. He moved extremely quick, yet it was still a little slower. Bang! A fist hit Ning Tao, and the terrible force sent him flying and he slammed into the wall behind the desk before he bounced back to the floor. Intense pain spread through every nerve of his body, and it made him suspect that his chest was like a piece of glass that fell on the floor and broke!
