I Can See Through Everything

Chapter 214

Chapter 214

After hearing the final fate of the Zheng family from Wei Shanhai, Lu Qing felt quite satisfied.

It seemed that the city lord was indeed fair and just.

After lunch, Wei Shanhai took his leave and returned to his other courtyard.

The old doctor's expression, however, became somewhat grave.

"Ah Qing, come with me."

Sensing the unusual look on his master's face, Lu Qing felt a chill in his heart and followed him to the study.

"Ah Qing, not long ago, did you hear those nine sounds from heaven and earth?" the old doctor asked.

Lu Qing nodded, "Yes, I had just finished my seclusion and felt the fluctuation of heaven and earth."

"It seems that what you mentioned earlier about the revival of spiritual energy is truly coming. The legendary path of immortality really exists," the old doctor sighed.

Logically, the revival of spiritual energy should be a good thing for practitioners like them.

But Lu Qing saw a hint of worry on his master's face and couldn't help but ask.

"Earlier, when the fluctuation of heaven and earth appeared, I had a vague premonition," the old doctor said.

"What kind of premonition?"

Lu Qing's heart stirred.

He thought of the light of merit on his master's body.

The light of merit was incredibly miraculous. It was said that those who possessed it could turn misfortune into fortune, receive heavenly protection, and have deep luck.

Could it be that the premonition his master felt was a guidance and warning from heaven and earth?

"Specifically, I'm not quite sure. I only know that there might be great changes ahead, not just in the rules of heaven and earth, but also in the hearts of people, and in the world's situation.

By then, various disasters may arise, causing suffering to all beings, and there might be no pure land left in the world."

The old doctor's expression became more solemn than ever.

When he first felt this premonition, his heart was deeply shaken.

It was only because Wei Shanhai was beside him at the time, and he didn't want to cause undue panic, that he forced himself to remain calm.

"So serious?"

Lu Qing's heart trembled. If his master's premonition was correct, then the wave caused by the revival of spiritual energy might be even greater than he imagined. ??N????

"That's why I've made a decision."

Lu Qing was taken aback, "Master, what decision?"

"I want to go to Zhongzhou."

"Zhongzhou?" Lu Qing was very surprised, but he quickly reacted, "Master, you want to go to the Sacred Mountain?"

"Exactly. Since the chaos in the world is unavoidable, we can only try our best to enhance our own foundation, so that we can have the strength to protect ourselves while sheltering a region."

A look of determination appeared on the old doctor's face.

He was compassionate and couldn't bear to see others suffer.

Therefore, although he didn't like conflict, he understood that in chaotic times, only great strength could protect the people and things he cherished.

"Ah Qing, do you want to continue cultivating in the village, or come with me to Zhongzhou?" the old doctor asked.

"Naturally, I want to follow Master and serve you," Lu Qing immediately said.

He knew that his master was going to Zhongzhou to obtain the opportunity mentioned by Zhi Yue and enhance his own strength.

Moreover, he was also very interested in Zhongzhou and wanted to take a look.

After all, as the most prosperous state in this world, it must be extraordinary.

With the changes in heaven and earth and the revival of spiritual energy, perhaps the changes there would be the greatest.

"Master, when do you plan to leave?"

"The sooner the better, within a day or two."

...

Wei Shanhai soon learned about the old doctor's plan to go to Zhongzhou.

He immediately came to the Halfway House.

"Doctor Chen, you and Young Master Lu are going to Zhongzhou?"

"Yes, so during our absence, I ask your family to help take care of Jiuli Village," the old doctor nodded.

He and Lu Qing were going to Zhongzhou. Others might not need to know, but Wei Shanhai had to be informed.

After all, with the impending chaos, the villagers of Jiuli were their biggest concern.

"Of course, the people of Jiuli Village are simple and honest. I also like this place very much and will naturally not let anyone bully them."

Wei Shanhai agreed readily.

Over the past two years, he had often stayed at his other courtyard and had grown fond of this simple and peaceful village.

"However, Doctor Chen, since you and Young Master Lu are going to Zhongzhou, I have a small request. I wonder if I should mention it."

"Feel free to speak, Old Wei."

"It's just that you and Young Master Lu are going to Zhongzhou. Could you take Zian and Master Ma with you?"

"Wei Zian and Master Ma?" Lu Qing was surprised.

"Yes, Zian is no longer young and should go out to gain experience. The journey to Zhongzhou is long and inconvenient. Even if he can only carry some luggage for you, it would be his blessing."

Lu Qing understood.

The Wei family wanted to let Wei Zian go out and gain experience, but they were not entirely confident about his safety, so they wanted him to follow them.

After all, Wei Zian had once survived an assassination attempt.

Who knew if the mastermind behind it had given up?

Following them was the safest option.

Lu Qing and the old doctor had no objections.

After all, they were going to take Xiao Yan with them. If Wei Zian and Master Ma were there, they could help take care of Xiao Yan in case of any unexpected situations.

"No need to be so polite. Since Wei Zian and Master Ma also want to travel, let's all go together," the old doctor said with a smile.

"Doctor Chen agreed? Then I'll go back and have Zian and the others prepare."

Seeing the old doctor agree, Wei Shanhai was delighted and took his leave.

In the following two days, Lu Qing and the others prepared for their journey.

It wasn't until they were about to depart that the villagers knew they were going on a journey.

"Ah Qing, although I know you are very skilled now, I still have to say, be careful and cautious in everything, and listen to the old doctor. Don't act impulsively."

At the village entrance, Grandpa Zhang held Lu Qing's hand and earnestly advised him.

Behind him, many villagers gathered to see them off.

Two years had passed, and Grandpa Zhang's health was not only not showing signs of old age but had become even more robust, thanks to Lu Qing's regular treatments.

In fact, over the past two years, Lu Qing's martial arts skills had advanced rapidly, and so had his medical skills.

The most obvious effect was that the health of the village elders had greatly improved due to his frequent acupuncture treatments.

"Grandpa Zhang, I will remember," Lu Qing nodded seriously.

"Xiao Yan, when you are outside, listen to your brother and Grandpa Chen. Don't be naughty and don't run around, okay?"

On the other side, a few village women held Xiao Yan and advised her.

"Yes, Xiao Yan will be very good!" Xiao Yan responded loudly.

"Ah Qing, it's time to leave."

After the farewells, it was finally time to set off. The old doctor called out.

"Understood." Lu Qing picked up Xiao Yan, bowed slightly to the villagers, "Grandpa Zhang, everyone, Xiao Yan and I will be going now."

Then he carried Xiao Yan and walked forward, getting into a carriage.

The carriage was prepared by the Wei family.

Since the journey to Zhongzhou was long and they had a child like Xiao Yan, it was not suitable to travel on foot.

So the Wei family prepared a spacious carriage, more than enough for all of them.

"Let's go!"

Once Lu Qing and Xiao Yan got into the carriage, Mago, acting as the driver, cracked the whip, and the sound of hooves echoed as the carriage slowly started moving towards the village's exit.

Grandpa Zhang and the villagers stood at the village entrance, watching the carriage gradually fade into the distance.

It wasn't until the carriage disappeared that Grandpa Zhang suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "By the way, did Ah Qing tie the red string?"

"He did, father." His eldest son replied, "Ah Qing tied the red string to the sacred tree for all of them before they left."

"Good, good."

Grandpa Zhang sighed in relief but still felt a bit uneasy and reminded the young people in the village:

"Remember to keep an eye on those red strings. Ah Qing and the others are going to Zhongzhou, a place so far away. It might take a year or more before they return. We can't let the wind and rain knock down the red strings."

"We got it!"

The young people responded in unison.

Lu Qing and the others' departure didn't have much impact on Jiuli Village.

After a brief period of sadness, everyone returned to their usual routines.

Two days later, a disheveled figure appeared outside Jiuli Village.
