Chapter 4 The Secret of Longevity
The villa is very large. Although it only has three floors, it occupies a very large area. There are many rooms, including a fitness room, a study room, a piano room, and even a home theater room, but the bedrooms and toilets are the most important.

The three black brothers, Tiger, Elephant, and Leopard, all came out of the slums. Before they came to Fort Baker, they all made a living by selling their physical strength. This place is taken care of like a home, and all food and accommodation are here.

"Sir, the room of the three tiger brothers is on the left side of the first floor, and your bedroom is the master bedroom on the second floor." Old Jack wanted to help with the luggage, but was preempted by the quick-sighted tiger.

"Boss, I'll help you carry your luggage." The tiger showed his bright white teeth.

Jing Qi was still thinking about the mountain behind, and nodded noncommittally upon hearing this.

Old Jack and Tiger seemed to see that Jing Qi was thinking about something, and after taking their luggage to the master bedroom on the second floor, they left quietly.

Dinner is the famous hamburger from the local aunt in Fort Baker Town, which is very Western-style. Jing Qi also eats it occasionally, but he is not picky about food.

And at the dinner table, Jing Qi also saw the remaining two of the three black brothers, the elephant and the leopard.

Although it's impolite to say so, in Jing Qi's eyes, the three black brothers really look exactly the same, and they can't tell them apart at all. Probably in the eyes of the three black brothers, he and Sun Xiaoyang are also carved out of the same mold.

However, from the figure, it is still easy to distinguish the three.

Elephants are the tallest and strongest, they don’t talk much, they are simple and honest, leopards are relatively thin and small, but they are much stronger than Jingqi, this guy’s eyeballs are gliding around when he eats, he thinks he is a dishonest leopard, a tiger The figure is exactly between these two people, such a distinction, Jing Qi will not call them by the wrong name.

After finishing the dinner for Jing Qi and the others, the local aunts in Fort Baker also went home, leaving only the three black brothers, Old Jack and Jing Qi, in the villa.

The elephant took the initiative to clean up the tableware, the leopard looked at the tiger, and the tiger looked at Old Jack. Old Jack took out a cigarette, and was a little worried that Jing Qi didn't like the smell of the smoke.

Jing Qi sighed and said, "I'll go up first."

"Yes, sir, good night." Old Jack smiled immediately.

Going up the stairs, Jing Qi suddenly remembered something, turned around and said: "By the way, there are potted plants here, just bring me a pot."

"Yes sir, as you wish."

Old Jack's answer made Jing Qi feel a little bit flustered, and he felt the joy of being a turned serf and singing. Although the life in Jing's family was rich and noble, he was never free. Here, the United States is known as the most free country in the world. This farm and ranch , and even his own back garden. Thinking of this, Jing Qi felt inexplicably better.

Wanting potted plants is not arty. Jing Qi has never loved this. His real purpose is to verify something, or to put it another way, it is the huge memory that popped up in his mind suddenly on the plane.

"Longevity formula..."

In my memory, this formula of longevity is the inheritance method of the successive Qing emperors, and non-Qing emperors are not allowed to practice it. In Jing Qi's opinion, this method is a bit like a star-absorbing method, but the former is to absorb the aura of plants and trees, and the latter is to absorb the spiritual energy of plants and trees. other people's internal strength.

A very ordinary potted orchid entered Jingqi's spacious bedroom 5 minutes later.

There is a huge floor-to-ceiling window in the bedroom, and the soft moonlight shines down, giving it a peaceful taste of summer.

Putting the potted orchid under the moonlight, Jing Qi took a deep breath, put one hand on the branch of the orchid, closed his eyes and began to feel the aura of vegetation.

Jing Qi didn't know what the aura of plants and trees was. If he had to comprehend it by himself, he might not be able to succeed in ten or eight years, but the memory in his mind allowed him to skip the first and most difficult hurdle.

A streak of green light floating inside the orchid appeared in Jing Qi's mind.

"Is it a hallucination? I won't become crazy, right?" Jing Qi was a little scared, but also a little yearning.

Next, Jing Qi's fingers began to play on the orchid according to a certain pattern, just like playing a piano, clicking here and playing there. After 1 minute, a strange thing happened, a trace of green The light emerged from the orchid branches and leaves, and was absorbed by Jing Qi's index finger in an instant.

A trace of coolness came from the tip of the index finger, warm and comfortable, as if soaking in the clouds, floating in heaven.

This coolness quickly rushed into the meridians, almost poured into the dantian in the body within one breath, like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no movement.

Jing Qi opened his eyes, and saw that the orchid in the potted plant in front of him had exhausted its vitality, withered and died.

"It's true, is this actually true?"

Jing Qi's breathing was unavoidable, if the memories in his mind were all real, it would be really terrible.

Just the next moment, a numbness came from the right hand.

"It's a sequelae, it really is true!"

The first time you absorb the aura of vegetation, the meridians in your body will be 'infected' by the aura of vegetation and slowly turn into wood. If you absorb it without restraint, your entire arm will turn into wood!

Jing Qi hurriedly ran to the bathroom, took a pool full of warm water, and soaked himself in it.

Soaking in warm water can relieve the lignification of the meridians. Jing Qi was a little worried about Qingdi's poor memory, so he soaked in warm water for a full two hours before coming out. As expected, the numbness in his arms disappeared.

"According to my memory, I need to absorb enough aura of plants and trees into the dantian to break the shackles of the human body and open up the real dantian!"

After tossing and turning in the middle of the night, Jing Qi was woken up by a loud roar from outside just before dawn the next day.

"Damn fox! If there is no law to protect you, I will kill you first!!!"

Jing Qi recalled, it seemed to be the voice of a leopard.

Going to bed late last night, Jing Qi still wanted to sleep again, but was worried about what was going on outside, so he got up with his panda eyes open, but he was startled when he opened the bedroom door.

"Old Jack?... What are you doing standing here so early in the morning?"

Anyone who gets up early in the morning and opens the door will be shocked to see a foreign old man standing upright.

"Sir, you are awake, hehe, you must have been woken up by the leopard."

Old Jack stepped forward to tidy up Jing Qi's clothes very naturally, and carefully combed Jing Qi's crooked hair. In Yan Kingdom, only wives would do these things.

"Old Jack, I don't need to bother you about these things in the future, I'm not used to it."

"Oh, Mr. Sun said the same thing, hehe, I thought you would be different."

"..." Jing Qi suddenly wanted to put an elbow on Old Jack's old face.

"By the way, what was Leopard shouting just now?" Jing Qi even changed the subject.

"It's like this. The red foxes on the mountain often come down the mountain, play in the cornfield, and sometimes help catch voles, but in the end, they always make a mess of the cornfield. For this reason, the leopard often gets up in the middle of the night to drive those red foxes away. .”

"Well, this is really a model of harmonious life between humans and animals." Jing Qi wondered what a big deal it was.

Old Jack said: "In fact, because of the destruction of red foxes, the profits of cornfields have shrunk by at least a quarter every year."

... Slaughtered those stinky foxes for me, those bastards who dared to harm my brother's cornfield!

Jing Qi's petulant temper flared up.
