Chapter 103: The Ma Family
In the human body, there is a sick house, inside which there is sick energy. If the sick energy is little, then the person is safe and sound; if the sick energy is much, then they will feel uncomfortable. If the sick energy overflows outside the body to form dark black clouds, it will be a serious illness.
Xuan Qi's technique of cultivating internal energy had reached a realm where his true energy formed a whirlpool, which he used to guide and induce the pathogenic energy inside Ma Da Hong's body, instantly causing him to lose control. It seemed very powerful, but in reality, it only accelerated the growth of the pathogenic energy. It was like Ma Da Hong standing on the edge of a cliff, shivering with fear, when Xuan Qi kicked him from behind, sending him tumbling down the mountain.
If Ma Dahu is on the ground, even if Xuan Qi kicks two feet, Ma Dahu will fall at most. The Xuanmen Xuantu is to borrow power from the dragon, using the opponent's position and environment to guide and achieve the desired effect. It seems to be borrowing force to strike force, but it takes decades or even hundreds of years of hard work, the crystallization of the wisdom of several generations of Xuanmen people.
"Old Ding was amazed: 'How on earth did you think of this? The Qigong technique can actually be used like this?' Xuan Qi's performance was stunning, his thinking was as free and unfettered as a heavenly horse soaring through the skies, achieving the greatest effect with the least amount of true energy. Xuan Qi had matured, as his experiences grew, as he went through more trials, he became more and more like a true cultivator of the Mystic Sect, no longer just an unlucky child or a medicine jar."
Pushing open a small, elegant door, four people sat in the room, with a meal already prepared on the table. The four of them sat down together, with Xuan Qi sitting beside Hong Chen. A gentle, subtle fragrance wafted from her nose, and the intoxicating beauty not only didn't repel people, but instead attracted them even more.
"Who is that?" Liang Zimo suppressed his laughter, but his facial expression had already changed. One second ago he was still fierce and menacing, the next second... such a drastic contrast, it's really hilarious.
Hong Qin wasn't clear either, she just arrived at Hong Mo Fang today. She asked the service staff at the entrance: "What is the identity of the one with the surname Ma?"
The waitress was a young girl in her early twenties, wearing a deep blue vest and a pair of neat trousers. She had light makeup on and her long hair was tied back with a netted cord, giving off a lively spirit. When Hong asked, she said in a low voice: "Ma Dahong is the head of the city management team in this district, many people in his family work in government departments."
Doing business, one must always cater to all sorts of people. Even some insignificant small fries need to be taken care of properly, otherwise they will jump onto your feet like a toad and won't bite you but disgust you.
"It turned out to be just a city administrator, pulling him like that, he thought he was in the Presidential Palace!" Liang Zimo said with disdain.
The waiter said weakly: "Ma Dahong has an elder brother who is really in the Presidential Palace and he's a director!"
"I'm doomed!" Liang Zimo was stunned, and then weakly said: "He's having trouble here, won't he bring trouble to Hong Jie?" Today Liang Zimo is absolutely the number one jinx, what he says comes true!
Just as he was speaking, Su Mengxue's complexion suddenly turned pale and her body trembled involuntarily. Xuan Qi immediately used his Qigong technique to see a cold, icy pulse flowing through Su Mengxue's heart. Without thinking much, he directly hugged Su Mengxue in his arms, with his palm extended to grasp her heart, soft and fragrant, yet impossible to hold in one hand. Xuan Qi poured his unblocked true energy into Su Mengxue's body, neutralizing the cold air.
Su Mingxue's face gradually regained its color. Her icy, hard body also regained sensation, and suddenly she felt a pair of scorching hot hands on her chest, Su Mingxue's face was like fire, scorching hot.
Xuan Qi also realized that it was not quite right to always hold on like this, seeing Su Ming Xue had nothing else to do, he thought of letting go of his hand, but unexpectedly, his five fingers grasped again. Men always take a second look at beautiful things, and what Xuan Qi did had nothing to do with morality.
This made Su Mengxue's body tense up like electricity, and the little girl desperately shrunk her head down, looking like a large ostrich. Growing up to this age, no one had ever touched her there before. The room suddenly became a bit awkward.
Just then, another waiter rushed over and said to Hong Quan: "General Manager, General Manager! Something's wrong! Several cars have arrived outside and people from the Health Bureau are here."
Hong Qin's eyebrows furrowed, she couldn't believe that on her first day in office, something like this would happen. What an inauspicious start! Hong Qin walked out of the private room, Xuan Qi and the others followed suit. Along the way, they met service staff or managers who, although pretending to be concerned, had a hint of schadenfreude hidden at the bottom of their eyes.
The Chinese people like to form cliques, prioritize seniority, and divide the population by region. The already complex interpersonal society has been made even more layered and distinct by the Chinese people, with clear boundaries between different levels of experience and connections. To swim smoothly without being excluded, one must cultivate a web-like network of relationships, while also showing off their sharp teeth in this war where the big fish eat the small ones, in order to emerge victorious.
The parachuted Hongqin was naturally excluded by the local faction. From these people pouring wine for Hongqin, it can be seen that they are not convinced in their hearts!
Xuan Qi, who has grown up gradually, has the experience of two lifetimes and has gradually formed his own understanding of some things. Cultivation is not only about cultivating one's body but also about cultivating one's mind. The so-called "leaving the mundane world and entering the secular world" refers to the cultivation of one's mental state. Xuan Qi is gradually stepping into the mysterious gate, experiencing the profound and subtle realm of the mysterious.
Ma Dahong, who was lying on the ground with a flushed face, was being lifted onto a stretcher by two doctors. Next to Ma Dahong stood a man in his fifties, with thinning hair and a round face, and a large beer belly that was at least four feet around, standing there like a beer barrel.
Ma Dahong, with a shameful expression, gazed at Hong Qin walking towards him, his eyes flashing with resentment. He turned to the beer barrel and said, "Second Uncle, you have to stand up for me! The food in this house is not clean..."
Ma Dahong's second uncle, Zhuang Yan, was the deputy director of the Health Bureau. He would be retiring in two years. Normally, his temper was very violent and extremely protective of his family. Seeing Ma Dahong's wretched appearance, Zhuang Yan immediately burst into anger. Looking at Hong Qin who was walking over, he directly bellowed: "This club of yours is finished! The health inspection does not meet the standards, it must be suspended for rectification. When it passes the acceptance test, then it will be allowed to open for business."
As the deputy director of the Health Bureau, Zhuang Yan has the duty to supervise health and epidemic prevention, as well as the right to shut down unqualified catering businesses. With a single order from Zhuang Yan, several men in white uniforms began to drive away the onlookers around them, preparing to shut down Hong Mo Fang.
"Stop it!" Hong Qin's face turned cold, her eyes narrowed: "What makes you say that he got a bad stomach from eating here? If the sanitary conditions are not up to standard, why didn't others get sick, but only him?" Hong Qin said in a low voice: "I think he was ill to begin with!"
Anger-filled Zhang, with his dignified demeanor and high status, was always met with a smile by the bosses or even the chairman whenever he went to inspect any restaurant. Who would have ever received such treatment? Looking at Hong Qin's cold face, Zhang angrily laughed: "Is it a problem with your food here? I say it doesn't count, you say it doesn't count either. Let the lab results be the judge!"
Zhuang Yan had long made up his mind, and from the back kitchen, he would come up with something, no matter what problem it was, he would experiment with a problem. Originally, he just wanted to shut down for a few days, calm down the other side's face, and fine them some money. Now, just shutting down and fining is not enough! Zhuang Yan looked up and down at Hong Qin's pretty face, determined to get this woman into bed, let her serve him in his own bedroom. A hint of lust flashed across Zhuang Yan's eyes.
Hong Chen had been through the rivers and lakes for a long time, so he naturally understood what Zhuang Yan was getting at. As long as they took away the experimental product and brought it into the laboratory to get the final test results, then whatever they said would be the truth. Hong Chen's whole body trembled with anger, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Xuan Qi watched with a cold eye as the two people tried to enter the house, but were blocked by Hong Qin. Xuan Qi involuntarily used his "Inspecting Qi" technique and discovered that both people were very healthy. Xuan Qi then looked at Ma Da Hong on the stretcher and suddenly had an idea. His fingers slightly curved again, and the "Infusing Qi" technique wandered at his fingertips, two transparent and pure true qi flew directly into Ma Da Hong's duodenum, intercepted some of the diseased qi, and Xuan Qi's hands trembled as he controlled one ball of blackened diseased qi each, directly shooting them into the duodenum of the two people.
"Get out of the way!" Two men in white clothes, one tall and one short, the taller one with a red nose, glared at Hong Qian and shouted: "If you don't get out of the way, I'll report you for obstructing official business. According to the law, you can be detained for 15 days and fined 5,000 yuan..." Just as he was saying this, his face suddenly changed, his straight waist slowly bent, and then three loud farts sounded in a row. His five facial features contorted in pain, and his white pants instantly turned a dull yellow.
The short guy next to him, whose physique wasn't as good as Gao's, bent down directly with a trembling body. His white pants had long since turned a dull yellow.
Such a change caused Hong Quan's face to change, covering his nose and retreating two steps, his furrowed brow relaxing in an instant: "They didn't eat here with me, how can they be the same as him?"
The sudden change was a godsend, stunning all the companions. One lay on the stretcher, two slept on the ground, and if they still talked about food safety, it would be clearly unreasonable.
"This...?!" The solemn-faced man's face turned red, his stout body began to tremble, and he pointed at Hong Quan, saying: "I suspect that there are special viral bacteria here, this place must be isolated, no one is allowed to leave!" He had made up his mind to make a big deal out of this.
Hong Qin's face showed disdain: "I also think there is a special virus here." Hong Qin, who had been arguing with Zhuang Yan, suddenly changed his tone, which made Zhuang Yan very uncomfortable. Then he heard Hong Qin continue to say: "The carrier of the bacteria is the person on that stretcher! You're so close to him, be careful not to get infected."
As soon as Hong Qu's voice fell, Xuan Qi's fingers flicked one after another, and the beads of true energy filled with evil energy entered the abdomens of those people with bad faces around the stretcher. For special care for the beer barrel-like fat man, Xuan Qi specially shot three beads of true energy with evil energy into Zhuang Zhen's stomach.
At that moment, everyone's five senses were all scrunched up, and in a state of terror, they desperately tried to hold it in, but couldn't help but spew outwards. First came the gas, followed by yellowish-white stuff. The entire courtyard was filled with a foul smell. Just one second ago, those arrogant bastards were still swaggering around, but now they had all become virus carriers. Their clothes were all stained yellow!
The nurse carrying the stretcher was fine, the doctor wearing a mask was also fine, and the crowd around covering their mouths were also fine. It was an inexplicable scene that was absurd and unsolvable. The doctors who came with the ambulance were spraying disinfectant while asking for more ambulances to be sent from above.
The rapid testing of samples soon yielded an answer, and it was just a very ordinary outbreak of diarrhea. All the people who had diarrhea were from the Health Bureau, including one from the City Management Bureau. They had all eaten together in the Health Bureau cafeteria last night, and this bout of diarrhea may have been related to that meal.
The Red Mill is open as usual, and the four people who have been through this ordeal no longer have an appetite. Liang Zimo returns to Beiti, Xuan Qi and Su Mianxue head to school. There's still a week before school starts, but they've come to report early. These days just happen to be free, Xuan Qi looks at Su Mianxue and asks out of the blue: "Do you have anything going on tomorrow?"
Su Mengxue didn't make a sound, but instead used her crystal clear and transparent big eyes to stare at Xuan Qi's eyes. Those eyes seemed to be speaking, asking what else?
"Tomorrow I want to go to Panjiayuan to buy some things, if you have time..." Xuan Qi said halfway, then heard Su Mengxue weakly say: "Okay!"
Just then, he heard Old Turtle's strange cry: "Is this a date?"
