Chapter 291 Enlightenment
"You two, take his pulse."
Li Shimin spoke calmly, glancing at Han Bei before addressing Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yaojin had some doubts, but he still stepped forward and extended his hand to Han Bei.
After some investigation, Cheng Yaojin's expression changed drastically, becoming somewhat strange.
The look in her eyes as she looked at Han Bei carried a hint of pity.
"He's still a pitiful person."
"Zhijie, what do you mean by that?"
Qin Qiong, standing to the side, was somewhat puzzled and couldn't help but ask.
"Go and investigate for yourself, and you'll find out."
Upon hearing this, Qin Qiong reached out his hand, and soon after, he showed the same expression as Cheng Yaojin.
A hint of pity appeared in her eyes as she looked at Han Bei.
He now understood why Cheng Yaojin had that expression.
Han Bei is a useless person.
He wasn't entirely useless. To ordinary people, he would certainly be useless, but if he were born into the royal family, he would very likely become a general who conquers the north.
For ordinary people, blocked meridians mean the loss of the path to martial arts.
Because the resources required to unblock the meridians are too great, ordinary people simply cannot afford them.
Only the royal family and established clans like the Five Surnames and Seven Noble Families have the ability to enlighten him and clear his path.
That's why Cheng Yaojin and Han Bei showed such expressions.
"Now that you know, you two can help him understand."
Li Shimin remained calm and addressed the two men.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yaojin was about to say something when Li Shimin waved his hand. "You two only need to clear the blockage for him; I have already prepared the necessary liquid."
Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin looked at Han Bei.
The other person was holding a glass bottle in their hand, which contained a dark brown liquid.
It is currently rippled slightly.
"Drink it, and the two of them will help clear your meridians."
Li Shimin spoke calmly.
Han Bei glanced down at what was in his hand, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Cheng Yaojin's playful voice.
"Boy, clearing your meridians is like scraping flesh and removing bones—can your small frame withstand it?"
Cheng Yaojin looked Han Bei up and down, then chuckled softly.
After all, it's in his subconscious.
The pain involved in unblocking the meridians was immense, even for someone as powerful as Li Shimin back then.
I almost couldn't take it either.
With Han Bei's small frame, he probably wouldn't even be able to withstand the side effects after drinking the suspension.
"Or, should we just forget about it?"
After hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, Guo Yong stepped forward and said softly.
If the side effects are too great, then forcibly unblocking the meridians is not a good thing for Han Bei.
"Is there a risk of death in this matter?"
Su Yang looked at Li Shimin and asked with a frown.
"No, but it will definitely take a lot of damage."
Li Shimin smiled dismissively. "Back then, I endured it all to clear my meridians. I just wonder if he has the same willpower."
"Unblocking the meridians is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you fail to withstand it and faint, then you will have no hope of ever leaving the path of martial arts."
"You should think this through. Whether you stay away or not is entirely up to you."
Hearing Li Shimin's words.
Han Bei was caught in a dilemma for a moment.
His fingers unconsciously tightened around the bottle in his hand.
He was torn about whether or not to undergo the enlightenment process.
If it's not turned on, my safety isn't a big problem.
But this doesn't seem to be what I want?
Guo Yong, who was standing to the side, wanted to say something, but Su Yang stopped him.
Su Yang shook his head, indicating that Han Bei should make his own choice.
Seeing this, Guo Yong had no choice but to give up.
Just as Su Yang said, since there was no danger to his life, Han Bei had his own considerations for all the choices.
A moment later.
Han Bei chuckled softly, looked at the bottle in his hand, and his eyes were full of determination.
He immediately pulled off the cap and drank the liquid in the bottle in one gulp.
As soon as it entered my mouth.
It was a burning, stinging pain, as if someone were cutting me with a knife. It also had an extremely strong, foul odor that made me want to vomit.
As the liquid enters the throat.
Han Bei felt as if his skin was being torn and his flesh was being cut, and his whole body was stinging with pain.
I saw Han Bei's face turn red, and the veins on his forehead and body bulged.
Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration.
This kid is interesting.
He's quite a ruthless person, actually.
If successful, their future achievements will definitely be substantial.
Cheng Yaojin was still thinking about this.
Guo Yong and Su Yang, however, could hardly bear to look at it.
Judging from Han Bei's changes alone, this thing must be incredibly painful.
Considering what Li Shimin said earlier, that he would inevitably suffer a great loss, it is enough to prove just how painful the ordeal Han Bei is enduring at this moment is.
At this moment, Han Bei felt as if someone was scraping his entire body with a knife, especially his limbs, where a piercing pain was coming from all over.
It felt like someone was scraping flesh off your bone with a knife.
Han Bei now understands just how ruthless Guan Yu was when he had his bone scraped to treat his wound.
Beads of sweat appeared on Han Bei's forehead. He gritted his teeth and looked at Cheng Yaojin and the other man. "Isn't it ready yet?"
Beads of sweat appeared on Han Bei's forehead. He gritted his teeth and looked at Cheng Yaojin and the other man. "Isn't it ready yet?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong estimated that the time should be about right.
They then stepped forward and each grabbed one of Han Bei's hands.
He channeled his inner energy, continuously channeling it into Han Bei's body.
The two forces collided, instantly triggering an unprecedented pain.
If the previous pain was like scraping the bone to heal the wound, Han Bei could at least force himself to stay clear-headed.
But ever since Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong took over, he felt like he was constantly on the verge of falling into a coma.
"You only get one chance. If you pass out, you'll be a useless person for the rest of your life."
Seeing that Han Bei's condition was not right, Cheng Yaojin shouted in a deep voice.
At the same time, he didn't forget to pinch Han Bei to see if he could bring the other party back to his senses.
Upon hearing this, Han Bei shook his head and gritted his teeth, trying his best to stay awake.
The scene of being kidnapped kept replaying in my mind.
If I had been a low-level martial artist back then, would this have been avoided?
Becoming a martial artist at least grants one some ability to protect oneself, unlike before.
Thinking about this, Han Bei became even more determined in his mind; there was only one chance.
Once you miss this chance, you'll never have another chance in this lifetime.
Li Shimin simply observed this scene with great interest.
Actually, this thing has more than one chance.
However, generally speaking, if it doesn't work the first time, it will almost certainly not work the second or third time.
Because with each breakthrough, the pain sensation from clearing the meridians increases exponentially.
Instead of telling the other person there's another chance, it's better to say from the beginning that there's only one chance.
Once you fail, you can never start over.
If that's the case, then those who have attained enlightenment will certainly do their utmost.
