The old man called Uncle Mo's expression changed upon hearing this. The hawk-like eyes that had been so oppressive relaxed a lot, and he nodded slightly towards Ji Qinglin, saying:
"Not bad, quick reaction."
Then he turned to look at the Red-Eyed Girl and asked with concern:
"How are you? Are you hurt?"
His voice was a little hoarse, but his tone was very gentle, completely different from the posture he had when he rushed in as if he was going to kill everyone in the house.
The Red-Eyed Girl shook her head and said, "I'm fine, but the feeling in my left leg hasn't fully recovered. How about your side?"
"Everything has been taken care of. Are we leaving now, or waiting for your leg to recover?"
Afraid that staying here would expose the embarrassing things that had just happened, the Red-Eyed Girl replied almost without hesitation, "Time is of the essence, let's leave now."
"Okay."
Uncle Mo said, looking around the room, then took out his wallet and pulled out a few Red Coins.
"Thank you, young brother, for your righteous help. This little bit of money is just a token of my appreciation. I hope you will forget about seeing us."
As he spoke, he placed the money on the table, using a book to hold down one corner.
Ji Qinglin put down his gun, but did not return it, after all, the threat of this "Uncle Mo" was still too great.
Uncle Mo stepped forward, picked up the Red-Eyed Girl, and walked outside.
Ji Qinglin reminded him, "Don't forget you still owe me a favor."
The Red-Eyed Girl was afraid that Uncle Mo would question him, so she urged, "I know, Uncle Mo, let's go quickly."
Uncle Mo didn't understand what was going on, but he also knew that this was not a place to stay for long. He carried the Red-Eyed Girl and quickly rushed out of the main hall. Although he was thin, he still flew out as quickly as a ghost while carrying the Red-Eyed Girl.
When he saw this Uncle Mo come in, Ji Qinglin realized that this person's movement technique must be strong, seeing that he was about to leave, he immediately opened Divine Sense Observation and followed him.
Even while carrying someone, Uncle Mo's feet were still silent, and his movements were not greatly affected. He left a series of afterimages behind him, and with a single leap, he crossed the iron gate.
By the time Ji Qinglin chased to the door, Uncle Mo had already arrived with the girl next to a long black car without its lights on.
Hearing the movement behind him, Uncle Mo asked vigilantly, "Is there anything else?"
Ji Qinglin chased to the gate, just wanting to complete the scan of the technique. When asked, he hesitated slightly and then smiled and shook his head, "No, have a safe trip, be careful."
The Red-Eyed Girl thought that Ji Qinglin wanted to ask for a name or contact information to repay the favor, but considering that Uncle Mo had told him to forget about these things, she didn't dare to speak.
Thinking that she was indeed safe today thanks to him, even though this guy was frivolous, the fact that he saved her was right in front of her. It was really inappropriate to leave a few bills without saying a word, so she whispered, "My name is Qian Feng, Maple Forest's Feng. Someone will be grateful to you for me in the future."
Ji Qinglin didn't expect the other party to give her name at this time, so he had to politely reply, "Huang Silang, the Huang from learning materials."
"...Uncle Mo, let's go!"
Uncle Mo didn't understand what these two young people were doing, nor did he ask. He just put Qian Feng in the back seat, nodded slightly to "Huang Silang", and drove away. The black car never turned on its lights from beginning to end.
Ji Qinglin breathed a sigh of relief, "Phew, what a particularly fulfilling day."
Divine Sense Observation had already saved the video. The movement technique of that Uncle Mo was called Layered Shadow Soul Chasing Step. It was not only about circulating energy through the meridians and acupoints of the legs, but also about the proficiency of the footwork.
So Ji Qinglin did not return to the house, but took advantage of the moment to start learning the general movements of that Uncle Mo in the yard, with the guidance of Divine Sense Observation, familiarizing himself with the way to circulate energy through the meridians of his feet.
On the other side, after Qian Feng got into the car, she also told Uncle Mo what had happened in the yard, of course, the version where she hid in the house and Huang Silang went out to distract the guards.
"So he really is a good person, no wonder you would risk telling him your name."
Qian Feng really couldn't equate this frivolous person with the words "good person", so she perfunctorily said, "Anyway, he doesn't know my surname or identity, and he has no chance to meet me, so it doesn't matter."
"As you wish. Put on the clothes next to the back seat first, and take off the bomb. We can't let the company see you in such a mess in the next two days."
Without turning on the lights, Uncle Mo could still drive the car more steadily than on a spacious asphalt road in the daytime. Qian Feng closed the partition and changed her clothes in the back.
After changing, she took out the small sketchbook that she had just hidden from the pocket of her discarded pants. She had never seen such a thing before, and she took it away out of curiosity. Of course, she was different from that pervert. She was looking at it critically, but naturally she couldn't let Uncle Mo see this thing.
But when she took out the small sketchbook, she felt that her discarded pants were actually wet just now. She couldn't help but recall the scene on the bed, the hot and strong body pressed against her. Qian Feng shook her head vigorously, opened the car window, and threw the discarded clothes out.
Uncle Mo, who was driving, saw Qian Feng throw something out and asked curiously, "What's wrong? What did you think of that made you so angry?"
"It's nothing. By the way, Uncle Mo, besides equipping meridian installation software, are there other ways to use techniques?"
"Why are you suddenly asking this? Under normal circumstances, of course not."
"What do you mean by 'under normal circumstances'?"
Uncle Mo cleared his throat and explained, "Although many people don't know it, you should be aware that the historians employed by the company have ample evidence to prove that during the period of historical discontinuity, a war broke out between human technological civilization and cultivation civilization.
"Although we don't know the specifics of the battle, we do know the result: the immortal cultivators disappeared, whether they left or died in battle, and the divine senses of some of the dead immortals shattered and scattered, which allowed many artificial intelligences to have autonomous consciousness. Later, the revived human technology began to use technical means to restore ancient cultivation methods, which led to the birth of modern cultivation."
Qian Feng opened the window and said, "So isn't this the only way to cultivate?"
Uncle Mo shook his head and said, "You can't say that. Modern cultivation is more like a one-sided imitation by human technology, academic but not Taoist. You are too young to feel it, but when you reach our level, you will feel a sense of powerlessness that makes breakthroughs seem unattainable.
"According to the latest investigation reports, the outbreak of war was not the whole story of the collision between these two civilizations. There was also cooperation between immortal cultivators and human scientists. Although it is only a speculation by historians based on clues, I think that may be the real technological cultivation that combines the strengths of both sides, but this method must have been buried in the dust of history long ago."
Qian Feng originally just wanted to ask about Huang Silang learning the Yin Yang Polarization Hand in the blink of an eye, but Uncle Mo seemed to have misunderstood her meaning and gave her another popular science lesson on the birth history of modern cultivation.
"Aren't these just speculations by those scholars? Where's the evidence?"
Uncle Mo suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Isn't the part of the immortal remains collected by the master evidence?"
"Uncle Mo, so is the legend of collecting the remains and attaining immortality true?"
"I don't know, but if you can really collect all the immortal remains from various families, then that person's ability is already almost the same as an immortal."
