Chapter 3: Sincerity and Integrity
Since Wén Tāo's parents passed away, Niú Rén has been treating his family members as if they were Wén Tāo's own relatives. However, he wasn't worried because over the years, he had secretly mixed some of the spiritual medicine and elixirs he obtained into their food and drinks, giving them a small amount that they could tolerate.
Although Wen Tao dare not say more, but as far as he knows now, living to be a hundred years old without any illness is completely no problem.
As for himself being well-read and knowledgeable in medicine, Wentai has not experimented on them yet, but rather saved it to benefit others.
Wen Tao has a special ability to absorb heavenly tribulations, but he doesn't know if it's because of this that he can't cultivate his true self, not even his true energy, just like Gu Han's master sighed: "Good fortune! Bad fortune!"
Wen Tao himself said that he didn't know whether this was good or bad luck, but the heavenly thunderbolt that could blast a thousand-meter-high mountain into flat ground had already been absorbed by him four times without any adverse effects. He often thought about
Even if it's not in the context of Xiuzhen Realm, according to the law of conservation of energy, these heavenly thunderbolts shouldn't just disappear for no reason.
It's better to think twice and consider it again. Even if we assume that the true cultivators of Mount Shu have all come out, let's just stick with a scientific explanation.
After all the calculations, one sentence makes the most sense: the human body is a mystery as vast as the universe. After making up his mind, Wentao began to study hard in various fields of knowledge, countless medical knowledge, and the exploration of the human body by the Xiu Zhen sect. Over the years, he became an expert in studying the human body, and he was tireless, constantly striving for excellence in this field, gradually falling in love with the medical profession.
Anyway, Wen Tao has experienced too many things beyond ordinary people's imagination over the years... so many that he can be calm when facing so many rich people in Qingyuan Village. However, he himself has not been to very far places and even less to big cities, so he looks very simple-minded, plus his gentle appearance makes him look like a student from the mountains or countryside.
It was precisely for this reason that as soon as they got off at Shanghai Station, a crowd of people gathered around.
"Little brother, do you want to stay overnight? Our hotel is nearby and the price is cheap and fair. You absolutely won't find a second one like it."
"Hey little brother, get in the car, where are you going? Tell me a place and I'll take you there immediately."
"Buddy, whether you're taking a plane, train or bus, there are discounted tickets for flights starting at 1.5 times the original price, and discounts on train and bus tickets to various destinations nationwide."
………………
Although I've never been to a big city and haven't gone out much, these scenes are not unfamiliar to me. Having read various posts online, I've seen many realistic and documentary-like things, including conversations that don't differ by more than a few words.
Don't be fooled by Wén Tāo's innocent and gentle appearance. If you're deceived by his innocent-looking face, you'll definitely suffer. This is something that several immortals in the immortal realm are most aware of.
Wen Tao looked very wronged, painful and bewildered, pleading for help: "I... just got off the bus, there were a lot of people just now, I was squeezed and my bag is gone, all my money was in it, has anyone seen my bag?"
Wen Tao's simple and honest appearance, combined with his extremely talented performance skills, plus the fact that he was alone and didn't bring anything with him, along with his rustic dialect, naturally made no one suspect a thing.
The few people who came around immediately lost their smiles when they heard the sound. Two of them even gave him a white eye, and quickly flashed away, continuing to look for other targets.
And the others who were surrounded by them, even if you said no and didn't want to, these people would still chase after and follow in a group for a while, some would even follow very far, absolutely embodying the spirit of persistent pursuit.
Wen Tao walked out of the station with a relaxed expression. Since he couldn't pursue the path of immortality or cultivate his true self for now, he might as well experience different lives first. Although he couldn't cultivate his true self at present, with his current physical condition and the many good things on him, living for one or two hundred years wouldn't be a problem. In such a long time, he didn't believe that he wouldn't find another way. He would go around and experience everything, doing what he liked.
Long before arriving, Wentao had memorized the topographic map of Shanghai on the internet, including bus stops and routes. In all aspects, many things, some even trivial, Wentao would make sufficient preparations and do his homework whenever possible before doing anything.
He had never taken a bus before, in his hometown or nearby counties, they were all those very cheap motorcycles. Although not as good as taxis, the nature and essence are the same, so Wentao chose to take the bus and transfer three times to his cousin's husband's house.
The first two transfers were relatively smooth, but there was some trouble with the last transfer.
It was rush hour when the last bus arrived, and it was crowded with people. Although Wentai looked gentle, he could actually push his way through if he wanted to. However, he chose to wait and watch as others pushed their way on first, before following behind them. Just as he took a step forward, two people who had not boarded yet suddenly squeezed in from both sides at the same time.
There were also people behind him who suddenly pushed forward and pushed him up. At that time, the people inside hadn't entered yet, and they squeezed him in all at once.
This scene, although it was the first time for Wentao to experience, he had seen many times on the internet... interesting. As expected, almost at the same time, a hand slipped into Wentao's pocket. If it were an ordinary person in this situation, they would not have felt anything, and even if they did feel something, it would already be too late, and they wouldn't even have time to turn around.
But this was too easy for Wen Tao, his hand lightly reached down and had already grasped the hand that had slipped into his pocket.
"Ahh...ouch......" A pained cry, immediately brought the crowded bus to a standstill, with everyone on and off the bus turning around.
The people crowded around Wentai obviously didn't expect that under such circumstances, Wentai could still react. The hand caught by Wentai was the one inserted from the side, not the person who was squeezing Wentai from behind.
But just as that guy's hand was caught by Wen Tao, and everyone around turned to look, someone behind Wen Tao suddenly grabbed his hand.
"Damn it, you little thief, stealing things right under my nose!" A man in his thirties, with a small package tucked under his arm and sporting a short mustache, grabbed Wentai's hand.
It's interesting, reality is indeed more wonderful than reading posts and articles, Wentao thought to himself with a smile. This guy reacts quickly, this is going to be a reversal of black and white!!
"Dare to steal something, I'll beat you to death."
"I'll beat you to death..."
Next to them, their two accomplices were ready to take action. It seemed they had been prepared for this situation all along. With a shout and a commotion, it was as if they were trying to make others believe that the person was a thief. After turning things upside down and finishing the fight, they could leave with their heads held high.
"I... I'm not... you're the thieves..." Wen Tao said with a very innocent and wronged expression.
Those two people next to him didn't care about that much and just raised their hands.
"Ah......" Wentao looked very frightened, with his hands covering his head. The guy with the two small mustaches behind Wentao felt a shock in his hand, and Wentao had already pulled out his hand to cover his head.
At this time, the door was in a mess, and the two men's hands hit Wen Tao's body, just like hitting an iron plate. This is not all. Wen Tao's feet were in a hurry, and he happened to step on their feet, and the sound of broken bones was not heard by anyone in such chaos. However, the severe pain made the two guys lie on the ground, holding their feet and unable to get up.
"Damn..." The guy with a small mustache looked like the leader, but suddenly two of his subordinates fell down, and he threw a punch.
"Don't hit me..." Wentao flashed in the crowd at the door and his two hands inadvertently grabbed the fist of this little bearded man.
A loud cry, this little mustache under the gaze of everyone, inexplicably fell down. And as he fell, several wallets and a mobile phone suddenly dropped out of his pocket.
"Some people with sharp eyes shouted: 'My wallet...'"
"That's my phone..."
"So they were thieves after all..."
"These people must be in cahoots with each other, they didn't succeed in stealing things so they're resorting to a fight."
"But they're all following him like ghosts."
"Young man, this is called reaping what you have sown."
Now nothing more needs to be said, when those people came down to take their wallets and mobile phones, and the crowd around them was in an uproar, Wentao had already slipped out of the crowd silently.
Heh... took a deep breath of fresh air, and hastily hailed a taxi. Big cities are indeed big cities. In Fresh Town, you wouldn't encounter so many fresh things in an entire year. Looking back from the taxi at the crowd behind, I reckon those few thieves won't be able to do this line of work for the rest of their lives. Although he can't cultivate true energy or practice internal martial arts, Wentai's external martial arts skills have already reached a level that would shock ordinary warriors. Dealing with these few petty thieves, an average person wouldn't even understand what was happening.
However, Wen Tao knew that there were countless capable people in the world, not to mention those in the Cultivation World. Although they did not easily set foot in the mundane world, Wen Tao was very clear about one thing: before having absolute power, he absolutely could not pretend to be a big shot, otherwise he would definitely suffer a disaster. Therefore, Wen Tao's principle of being a person was to seize benefits with all his might and to keep a low profile.
