Tang Qi Tan

Chapter 16 The Human Way

And in the northwest corner of Chang'an City, near the corner of the prison in the West Inner Garden.

An old medical officer with white beard and hair had just finished his consultation and examination of Jiang Tian, ​​and then he frowned and said to the black-clothed warden Murong Wu:

"The old man has reconfirmed that there is nothing serious inside or outside; if you still don't believe me, I can't think about it, so I can only ask another expert. For example, go to the military medical office, maybe there are some other tricks .”

"It's work."

As one of the few backbones in the prison, Murong Wu could only bow his hands and express his thanks:

"only"

However, seeing the old medical officer paused, he hesitated to say:
"I've known you for a long time, so I can't help but say something more."

"Please also advise."

Murong Wu clasped his hands again and said:

"I don't know about other places, but this prison is related to Xiantai's face anyway, how dare you hide it?"

The old medical officer said with hesitation on his face:
"how do I say this?"

Murong Wu, who was always cold and unapproachable, couldn't help being surprised when he heard the words.

"Do you think I can't see it? It's good to wait for the old man to see a doctor for many years."

Then his reaction made the old medical officer misunderstand:

"The man's flesh and bones are well-proportioned, his breath is steady and long, and his internal organs are also very good; the obvious exhaustion of blood and qi, isn't it your method? I don't know what is at stake with this man, I just want to tell you Seniors, be careful not to burn yourself."

After speaking, he turned around and walked away without looking back, leaving Murong Wu where he was.However, Murong Wu, who had been slapped facelessly by someone, didn't get very angry or had an outburst on the spot, but looked thoughtfully at the back of going away, his eyes flickering and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Then, seeing Fan Shizi, who was assigned to him temporarily, also retreated helplessly, and smiled in front of him again:

"Superintendent, the man asked if there is still some food in the prison?"

"Ridiculous! Now that the cooks are all detained, what else is there..."

Murong Wu, who was full of coldness, wanted to reprimand him, but he turned his eyes and thought of something, and changed his words:
"In that case, you go to the repair hall (night watch) and get some pastries and drinks."

"Yes"

Only then did Fan Shizi faintly feel relieved and said: "However, after a short while, he looked at Jiang Tian who was eating so much, and was speechless for a while.

Because next, Jiang Tian wolfed down a large plate of cakes he sent in in front of him, and begged for two more times if it was not enough.He almost ate up the daily quota of those night watchmen; he drank almost half a bucket of tea soup, and it was the end of the unsatisfactory mood.

Then, listening to the gradually receding footsteps outside and the swaying sound of the belt chain, Jiang Tian also let out another breath and hiccupped again.And the faint feeling of weakness and sleepiness hidden under the unbearable hunger and thirst seems to have disappeared.

This also gave him a certain understanding. Obviously, this is the price of excessive use of the new ability called "guidance" under insufficient preparation, the abnormal appetite and digestive ability of extreme hunger and thirst.

Even so, the following Jiang Tian was completely sleepless, and he would use the next long night to test this new ability over and over again, its possible uses and its own upper limit.

After all, compared to the proficiency that can only be revealed by obtaining the corresponding weapons before, this new ability that looks similar to telekinesis may become the ultimate means for self-protection and emergency response.

So after the middle of the day, Jiang Tian, ​​who finally woke up amidst the aroma of some kind of food brought to him, suddenly saw Fan Shizi, who was playing with the utensils. When he saw that familiar face, he couldn't help being startled. Jump.

Because Fan Shizi, who originally had a broad forehead and unkempt beard and hair, looked quite mighty, after just one night, he looked haggard as if he had changed into a different person, revealing a pair of swollen and dark bags under the eyes.

"You... you, what's the matter?"

Jiang Tian couldn't help but asked:
"Stop talking, it's really hard to say..."

Fan Shizi waved his hands with a tired face and said:

"Could it be that something happened in the prison again?"

Jiang Tian continued to ask while digging a large spoonful of miso soup Hoto:
"It's fine in the prison, but the brothers on duty are all unsafe..."

When Fan Shizi said this, he couldn't help asking nervously:

"By the way, Jiang Sheng, did you hear any movement or see anything unusual last night?"

"abnormal?"

Jiang Tian thought about it, does it count if I didn't sleep all night? , but pretending to be surprised:
"I haven't seen it, I haven't woken up since I fell asleep."

"Then you're fine."

Fan Shizi sighed enviously: Then he couldn't help the desire to confide and find someone to share, and asked again:
"Have you never seen anything...unusual?"

"How could there be? Isn't this a prison? It should be the place where evil spirits and Biyi are born!"

Jiang Tian seemed to feel something in his heart, and deliberately said:

"That being said, do you know why there are so few detainees in this prison area; it was not reorganized until you were here, but something went wrong."

When Fan Shizi heard the words, he seemed to be touched by something, and couldn't help complaining:
"It's all about what happened back then..."

However, when he was about to continue speaking, the sound of footsteps and unlocking from outside made Fan Shizi tremble all over, and suddenly he woke up from Jiang Tian's deliberately leading words, and stopped talking.

And when Fan Shizi packed up the tableware and retreated, and walked away gradually, Jiang Tian suddenly burst out laughing.Because he seemed to understand what was going on.

Afterwards, he looked at a candlestick on the table that had been mostly melted.The next moment, this pair of pottery candlesticks, which seemed to be heavy in weight, wobbled and suspended under the influence of invisible forces;
And in Jiang Tian's field of vision, with the manipulation of thoughts, he walked up, down, left, and right, and then slowly accelerated to dance; until it became a white line in the field of vision, and suddenly lost control, smashing in The walls crumbled.

And this is the initial result that he spent the whole night exploring and unearthing; for example, the target for the "guide" to work must be within the unobstructed range of vision;
For another example, the current maximum effect of "guidance" is more than a dozen catties; and the optimal control range is about three to five catties; then it becomes slow and clumsy as the weight increases.

Even in order to test the distance, he used the stacked desks as a footing, and stood on the edge of the transom, and used trees, flowers and plants of varying distances as reference objects for the effective distance.

It was found that the "guidance" ability naturally decays as the distance increases.After reaching a critical point, there is only a barely noticeable breeze on the face.

From the current point of view, this kind of ability is really only suitable for playing tricks.Another example is within dozens of steps, small objects that can be used to steal a key; even if the field of vision is farther away, it can only be a slight breeze like a slight lift of a girl's skirt.

Therefore, it can't help but cause some kind of trouble to the jailers who patrolled during the period?Of course, it is impossible to ask Jiang Tian to stop, only to conduct tests and exercises more covertly.

After all, is there a more suitable training place that is more secluded and quiet than the prison, where there is no limit to food?
So, in the corner of the prison, the strange shape that made people sleepless all night slowly disappeared for several days;
Jiang Tian, ​​who was looking at Fan Shizi's copy of outdated essays sent in by order, and who was sorting out his understanding and thinking about love, also received the summons for the interrogation again.
