âWhich one would you like to try first?â
âCan I try all of them?â Wang Yao asked.
âOf course,â Chen Ying responded with a smile.
âUmm, Iâll have a look first.â
Wang Yao stretched out his hand and touched the firearms and weapons.
âIâll try the pistol first then.â Wang Yao picked up a pistol.
âOkay. Thatâs a steel target.â Chen Ying pointed at the target in the distance. âItâs 50 meters away.â
âIs that a bit far?â
âItâs not far. I can see it very clearly.â
âGive it a try then.â The officer who accompanied them smirked.
He was an expert in using guns. By looking at how Wang Yao was holding the gun, he knew Wang Yao was definitely a layman. It required a bit of skill for such a person to be able to hit the target from that distance. He was basically shooting blindly.
50 meters seemed very close. In fact, it was rather far.
In Wang Yaoâs sight, he could see the steel target very clearly. He could even see the point that he had to hit on it.
He would give it a try.
He held the gun very steadily.
He loaded the gun and pulled the trigger.
Bang. The gun was fired.
Ping. It hit the target of the steel target.
It hit the target?!
Is it a coincidence?
Bang. Another gunshot was fired. Ping. The bullet hit the steel target.
It hit the target again?!
The first time was a coincidence. Was it still a coincidence for the second time?
The two of them looked at Wang Yao differently.
Could it be that he has practiced it before?
To make it clear, shooting was about seeing the target accurately, holding the gun steadily and years of practice. What was a sharpshooter? It was talent plus boxes of bullets.
Thud. With the third gunshot, the bullet accurately hit the target of the steel target.
Chen Ying could not help but ask, âHave you practiced it before?â
âNo.â Wang Yao shook his head while smiling.
He continued to shoot.
The bullet bolted out and pierced through the air. The air expanded and was burning around it.
Sss. Phew.
Wang Yaoâs Qi connected with the Qi in between the heaven and earth. Then, he felt a moment of change. The time was very short, but he felt the bullet shuttling through the air. He did not see it, but he felt it. It was a strange feeling.
âI felt it!â he uttered softly.
âWhat did you say?â
âNothing.â
Wang Yao put down the pistol and picked up an automatic rifle.
âIâll try this out.â
âOkay.â
The steel target was adjusted to a 100 meters away.
Wang Yao held the gun very steadily. He could still see the steel target very clearly. At that moment, Wang Yaoâs eyes were almost like a telescope.
Thud, thud. He fired twice consecutively, both of which hit the steel target. The rifle didnât jerk in his grip at all.
âHeâs so steady!â the officer who was by the side exclaimed.
Itâs fast. Itâs faster than before!
This was what Wang Yao felt.
He was still able to feel it.
Does this mean that I can dodge bullets!? Wang Yao suddenly had such a thought.
After that, he tried the guns one by one. Firstly, he realized his goal. Secondly, he tried to capture the trajectory of bullets in the air, which was also the most important thing.
Five meters. No, it may be even closer.
âWhat kind of a person is he?â the officer asked Chen Ying.
âHeâs a doctor.â
âWhat? Heâs a doctor? Are you sure?!â
What was a doctorâs job, after all? They prescribed medicine and treated patients. They were good in surgeries. He had never heard of any doctors who fired this accurately with pistols and rifles.
âHe really is.â Chen Ying was also very curious.
Wang Yao was very happy the entire morning. He had discovered something new and a new possibility.
âYour marksmanship is great!â Chen Ying exclaimed after they came out from the shooting range.
âMarksmanship? Haha. Iâve never used a gun besides firing a few bullets during military training in college!â Wang Yao replied.
âReally?â
âOf course itâs true. Iâm very happy today. Iâll treat you to a meal.â
âHuh?â Wang Yaoâs sudden words made Chen Ying extremely confused. âAre you happy just like that?â
Wang Yao smiled. He felt that he was going to advance further.
He could feel the Qi in between the heaven and earth, the airflow around him, and Chen Yingâs breathing, footsteps, and the movements of her arms. He did not have to see and listen.
Qi.
Very good. Wang Yao opened his hands and he seemed to have caught something.
âWhat do you want to eat for lunch? Itâs my treat.â
âUmm, anything.â
They chose a very ordinary home-cooking restaurant and had lunch. There seemed to be not much of a sincerity, but in fact, the dishes in that restaurant were quite delicious. Chen Ying ate happily.
...
At that time, in a club somewhere in Jing City.
âZhenghe, have you made an appointment with him?â
âNo. Heâs a little solitary.â
âHaha. There are very few people whom you canât handle.â
âIâll ask him again. The situation is special. Itâs not good to turn it into a deadlock.â
âOkay. Iâll wait to hear the good news from you.â
Everyone had their own small circles. In Jing City, this kind of situation was slightly more unique because this place had most of the dignitaries of the whole country.
Guo Zhenghe had his own circle as well. They were basically people who were similar to himself. His family members generally worked in government departments and their positions were high. Their peers naturally formed a circle.
Wang Yao!
He was not in a very good mood when he came out of the club.
What are you thinking?!
...
In the afternoon, Wang Yao called Chen Boyuan to make an appointment.
Chen Boyuan took his father-in-law directly to the small courtyard where Wang Yao was. The old man looked very well. The key thing was that he came with a crutch this time.
âThank you so much, Dr. Wang.â He expressed his gratitude towards Wang Yao upon seeing him.
âYouâre most welcome.â
There were not many words exchanged as he examined the old manâs body. His condition was quite good and he was recovering very well. The blocked channels and collaterals in his waist were already dredged. The next thing to do was for him to exercise and recover. Wang Yao gave his legs and waist a treatment while giving him a massage. As usual, he used a small part of his neixi as an aid this time.
After the treatment, the old man felt very well. Both of his legs were warm, as if they were immersed in a hot spring. It felt very relaxing.
Not long after Chen Boyuan and his father-in-law left, Guo Zhenghe came over with a bottle of wine.
âHello, Brother Wang.â
âHello.â
âIâm here to get a free meal from Chen Ying. Do you mind?â Guo Zhenghe said with a smile.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWelcome.â
âI got this wine from my father. Taste it.â
It was Maotai wine in a classic packaging. It was not known as to which year it belonged to. Since it was from Guo Zhengheâs father, it would certainly be good.
âOkay. Iâll drink a little.â
Wang Yao did not like to drink. He only drank some occasionally.
The speed of Chen Yingâs cooking was not slow. Soon, a few exquisite side dishes were served on the table. Guo Zhenghe opened the wine bottle and the rich aroma of the wine permeated the house.
âIt smells so good!â
âYes. Drink some.â Guo Zhenghe poured him a full glass of wine.
âThank you.â
Wang Yao did not have any knowledge regarding wine. He just felt that the wine was very aromatic when it entered the mouth. There was no spiciness.
âHowâs Xiaoxueâs illness?â
âSheâs recovering quite well.â
They were exchanging small talk during dinner. Apart from that, Guo Zhenghe did not say anything important.
âWhereâs your sister?â
âShe went to Xijiang.â
âWhat did she go there for?â Wang Yao asked curiously.
âSss, she quarreled with my father over something which I donât know about. She went there to distract herself,â Guo Zhenghe replied.
âOh. Since itâs a family matter, itâs not appropriate for me to ask further.â
âHey, Brother Wang. I need to ask you about something.â
âGo ahead.â
âAs doctors, which illness do you think is the most difficult to treat?â
âUmm?â Wang Yao was startled. He did not expect that Guo Zhenghe would ask such a question. âThe most difficult to treat?â He looked at the wine glass in his hand. âChronic illnesses that have never been seen before and those that we have no knowledge about,â Wang Yao gave the answer after thinking it over for a while.
âLike cancer?â
âYes. As far as the current situation is concerned, this disease is indeed extremely difficult to treat.â
âHave you treated it before?â Guo Zhenghe continued to ask.
âIâve seen patients, but Iâve never treated it before,â Wang Yao replied. âWhy did you suddenly ask about this?â
âNothing. Iâm just curious. Iâm just asking for fun,â Guo Zhenghe answered with a smile. âDrink up. Hereâs to you.â
âI donât deserve it.â
Wang Yao only drank a small glass of the fine wine that Guo Zhenghe brought. Guo Zhenghe only made a move to leave after past nine oâclock at night.
âDrive safe.â
âOkay. Go inside.â Guo Zhenghe waved his hand while smiling.
Instead, he drank most of the wine.
Young Master Guo has something on his mind. This was Wang Yaoâs first reaction, but Guo Zhenghe did not say what it was, so he did not ask.
âSister Chen, isnât young Master Guo now working in a poor county? Why is he like this?â
