Chapter 4: Chapter Four~ Awakening(4)
Innng!Click! " Wei Jian! Dude, are you okay?" Barging in through the door, was another person. ' What now?'
" Who are you?" Jian question the person.
" Are You serious? That's s joke right?"
" No, entertain me please?"
Ugh! " We've known each other since we entered the sect. I got into inner while you could only attain outer. Remember? Don't tell me that you actually lost your mind?
" Ah! Yes, Ting Ming?"
" Zhao Lijiang! My god, you really did lose your sanity. Don't worry, you senior will avenge you." punching Wei Jian's shoulder.
" Wei Jian, how did you get so strong? Last time I remember, you were complaining to me about how weak and how much you wanted to die."
Standing upland heading towards his bathtub, Wei Jian shrugs off the question. Quenching his refined body in the mineral bath, rejuvenated him. He felt the energy that he had released coming back.
" Well take care of yourself, I won't be here for a whole year. I'll be gone on a mission", having said what he wanted to say. Lijang left Jian's house, heading back into the inner house.
The next morning, Wei Jian took a stroll into the center of the outer house, where all outer disciples gathered. Wei Jian held up a sign.
[ Heavenly massage and Godly cooking. Only 4 silver plaques]
Other disciples were bewildered. What in god's name was he doing? They all thought. Some were mocking him, saying he would never get customers. While others were curious and wanted to find out what he was willing to trade.
When nightfall came, and Wei Jian still didn't get any customers, he headed back home. Against the next day earlier than yesterday. Everyone was surprised that the weak-willed Wei Jian had actually come back and stood there in the same place again. Still holding up the sign with a stoic face.
Fortunately for him though, a little disciple, looking to be around the age of 10 to 13 came forward. In his small palms, he held out 3 silver plaques. Examining the boy, Wei Jian could tell why he came forward. The boy had a severely bent spine, making the boy bend over.
Seeing that no others came forward, Wei Jian accepted the boy's silver plaques and brought him into his home. One of Wei Jian's professions before he died, was a masseur. His trained body from hunting and farming, allowed for his grip to give people the best massage. But now that he is also a cultivator, he knew for sure that his massages would not disappoint.
" Go ahead sit down on the bed, relax your body, and empty your mind," Wei Jian said calmly. Lifting up the boy's robes, he could see the skin on the back of the boy, like a lizard it was rigid.
" So how did you come to get this?" asked Wei Jian
The boy sorrowfully recalls the event, " It was a mission I took last year. It was a simple mission " grab some devils rose". While I was collecting them, a demonic beast horde passed through. I tried my best to avoid them but in a split second. A horned azure rhino, with its horn, rammed me into the air."
" Well at least you made it back, here close your eyes…" said Wei Jian. Placing his index fingers along the rigid spine. Using force and a bit of energy, pressed onto the paths of the meridians on the boy's back. Using the technique he inherited from Long Wei, the [ Bone Shaping Palm]. Wei Jian carefully sculpted back the boy's spine.
Hours passed before the boy would exit Wei Jian's room. The once four feet and three inches, now stood tall at five feet seven. Wei Jian had told him that once was not enough and that he needed to come back for two more appointments. Wei Jian also refused the money that the boy offered, returning it back to him after the procedure.
" Hey, where were you Xinyue? Huh, did you finally get the medical pill," asked Wang Ming a friend of Hao Xinyue. Shaking his head, Xinyue began to spread rumors of his cure and how amazing Wei Jian was. Of course, those close to Hao Xinyue were interested and wanted to find out themselves. Especially, Hou Rongxi a passerby listening to them is also a core disciple. ' Interesting.'
Inside his home, Wei Jian keels over onto his bed. The drawback of the [ Bone Shaping Palms] was too much for him, a beginner mortal realm in the early stages. Also while treating Hao Xinyeo, Wei Jin noticed that a beastly qi was blocking the boy from healing naturally. When he extracted that energy, it had become attached to him. Getting into position, he meditates, slowly coursing his energy leading the beast's energy into his dantian.
The sprout transforms, flower buds appear, and the sprout grew three times bigger. It seems his dantian absorbed the beast's energy and turned it into his. Still, fatigued Wei Jian slumps over, falling asleep.
