“Which one would you like to try first?”
“Can I try all of them?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“Of course,” Chen Ying responded with a smile.
“Umm, I’ll have a look first.”
w.a.n.g Yao stretched out his hand and touched the firearms and weapons.
“I’ll try the pistol first then.” w.a.n.g Yao picked up a pistol.
“Okay. That’s a steel target.” Chen Ying pointed at the target in the distance. “It’s 50 meters away.”
“Is that a bit far?”
“It’s not far. I can see it very clearly.”
“Give it a try then.” The officer who accompanied them smirked.
He was an expert in using guns. By looking at how w.a.n.g Yao was holding the gun, he knew w.a.n.g 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 w.a.n.g Yao’s 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 w.a.n.g 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, “Have you practiced it before?”
“No.” w.a.n.g 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.
w.a.n.g Yao’s 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.
“I felt it!” he uttered softly.
“What did you say?”
“Nothing.”
w.a.n.g Yao put down the pistol and picked up an automatic rifle.
“I’ll try this out.”
“Okay.”
The steel target was adjusted to a 100 meters away.
w.a.n.g Yao held the gun very steadily. He could still see the steel target very clearly. At that moment, w.a.n.g Yao’s eyes were almost like a telescope.
Thud, thud. He fired twice consecutively, both of which hit the steel target. The rifle didn’t jerk in his grip at all.
“He’s so steady!” the officer who was by the side exclaimed.
It’s fast. It’s faster than before!
This was what w.a.n.g Yao felt.
He was still able to feel it.
Does this mean that I can dodge bullets!? w.a.n.g 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.
“What kind of a person is he?” the officer asked Chen Ying.
“He’s a doctor.”
“What? He’s a doctor? Are you sure?!”
What was a doctor’s 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.
“He really is.” Chen Ying was also very curious.
w.a.n.g Yao was very happy the entire morning. He had discovered something new and a new possibility.
“Your marksmans.h.i.+p is great!” Chen Ying exclaimed after they came out from the shooting range.
“Marksmans.h.i.+p? Haha. I’ve never used a gun besides firing a few bullets during military training in college!” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
“Really?”
“Of course it’s true. I’m very happy today. I’ll treat you to a meal.”
“Huh?” w.a.n.g Yao’s sudden words made Chen Ying extremely confused. “Are you happy just like that?”
w.a.n.g 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 Ying’s breathing, footsteps, and the movements of her arms. He did not have to see and listen.
Qi.
Very good. w.a.n.g Yao opened his hands and he seemed to have caught something.
“What do you want to eat for lunch? It’s my treat.”
“Umm, anything.”
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.
“Zhenghe, have you made an appointment with him?”
“No. He’s a little solitary.”
“Haha. There are very few people whom you can’t handle.”
“I’ll ask him again. The situation is special. It’s not good to turn it into a deadlock.”
“Okay. I’ll wait to hear the good news from you.”
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.
w.a.n.g Yao!
He was not in a very good mood when he came out of the club.
What are you thinking?!
…
In the afternoon, w.a.n.g Yao called Chen Boyuan to make an appointment.
Chen Boyuan took his father-in-law directly to the small courtyard where w.a.n.g Yao was. The old man looked very well. The key thing was that he came with a crutch this time.
“Thank you so much, Dr. w.a.n.g.” He expressed his grat.i.tude towards w.a.n.g Yao upon seeing him.
“You’re most welcome.”
There were not many words exchanged as he examined the old man’s 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. w.a.n.g Yao gave his legs and waist a treatment while giving him a ma.s.sage. 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.
“h.e.l.lo, Brother w.a.n.g.”
“h.e.l.lo.”
“I’m here to get a free meal from Chen Ying. Do you mind?” Guo Zhenghe said with a smile.
“Welcome.”
“I got this wine from my father. Taste it.”
It was Maotai wine in a cla.s.sic packaging. It was not known as to which year it belonged to. Since it was from Guo Zhenghe’s father, it would certainly be good.
“Okay. I’ll drink a little.”
w.a.n.g Yao did not like to drink. He only drank some occasionally.
The speed of Chen Ying’s 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.
“It smells so good!”
“Yes. Drink some.” Guo Zhenghe poured him a full gla.s.s of wine.
“Thank you.”
w.a.n.g 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.
“How’s Xiaoxue’s illness?”
“She’s recovering quite well.”
They were exchanging small talk during dinner. Apart from that, Guo Zhenghe did not say anything important.
“Where’s your sister?”
“She went to Xijiang.”
“What did she go there for?” w.a.n.g Yao asked curiously.
“Sss, she quarreled with my father over something which I don’t know about. She went there to distract herself,” Guo Zhenghe replied.
“Oh. Since it’s a family matter, it’s not appropriate for me to ask further.”
“Hey, Brother w.a.n.g. I need to ask you about something.”
“Go ahead.”
“As doctors, which illness do you think is the most difficult to treat?”
“Umm?” w.a.n.g Yao was startled. He did not expect that Guo Zhenghe would ask such a question. “The most difficult to treat?” He looked at the wine gla.s.s in his hand. “Chronic illnesses that have never been seen before and those that we have no knowledge about,” w.a.n.g Yao gave the answer after thinking it over for a while.
“Like cancer?”
“Yes. As far as the current situation is concerned, this disease is indeed extremely difficult to treat.”
“Have you treated it before?” Guo Zhenghe continued to ask.
“I’ve seen patients, but I’ve never treated it before,” w.a.n.g Yao replied. “Why did you suddenly ask about this?”
“Nothing. I’m just curious. I’m just asking for fun,” Guo Zhenghe answered with a smile. “Drink up. Here’s to you.”
“I don’t deserve it.”
w.a.n.g Yao only drank a small gla.s.s of the fine wine that Guo Zhenghe brought. Guo Zhenghe only made a move to leave after past nine o’clock at night.
“Drive safe.”
“Okay. Go inside.” Guo Zhenghe waved his hand while smiling.
Instead, he drank most of the wine.
Young Master Guo has something on his mind. This was w.a.n.g Yao’s first reaction, but Guo Zhenghe did not say what it was, so he did not ask.
“Sister Chen, isn’t young Master Guo now working in a poor county? Why is he like this?”
