Chapter 7: Charging into the Jade Liquid Stage

  The next day, Ye Nan finished sorting out the medical records of the nine deaths and didn't get off work until 11 o'clock.

  Ye Nan's family didn't live in the city, but in a small town twenty kilometers away. Ye Nan didn't want to share a dormitory with others in the hospital, so he rented a one-bedroom apartment with a small kitchen and bathroom in the city.

  Ye Nan's residential area is still pretty good, it's just that the house is a bit expensive, with some simple furniture and a monthly rent of 600 yuan.

  However, Ye Nan is now a typical "one person eats well and the whole family doesn't go hungry" type. Although the monthly rent takes up about one-fifth of his salary, Ye Nan lives comfortably himself and doesn't mind spending that extra money. He moved in a computer, connected to broadband, and lived a pretty leisurely life.

  After taking a bath, Ye Nan ordered takeout and filled his stomach. He remembered the dream from last night and couldn't help but sit cross-legged on the bed, with his hands palms up and placed flat on both knees, slightly lowering his head, eyes closed, and observing his breath. According to the feeling in his dream, he put his mind into the Purple Mansion, carefully observing the pale white spiritual energy that permeated it.

  This spiritual energy permeated the entire Purple Mansion, like morning mist, drifting with Ye Nan's divine consciousness, like a gentle breeze.

  Ye Nan followed the old way, feeling the spiritual energy of the outside world. The outside was filled with a refreshing and thin breath, that's right, it was this one.

  Ye Nan's divine consciousness was sensing those spiritual energies, making an effort to guide them into the Baihui acupoint. As Ye Nan's divine consciousness moved, the external spiritual energy began to flow in continuously towards him, slowly entering from the Baihui point and gathering at the Zifu.

  Then Ye Nan's divine consciousness led those spiritual energies to wander in the Purple Mansion, letting them merge into that pale white spiritual energy, circulating endlessly.

  Gradually, those spiritual energies no longer needed Ye Nan's divine consciousness to lead them. They automatically flowed in from the Hundred Meetings and then entered the Purple Mansion, permeating the entire space before slowly merging into that cluster of denser pale white spiritual energy.

  Ye Nan's divine consciousness was idle and lay dormant at the top of his head, desperately pulling and tugging at the surrounding spiritual energy to speed up its absorption.

  Ye Nan didn't know how long he had been in such a mysterious state. Suddenly, the sound of dripping water woke Ye Nan up. He looked at his phone and saw that it was the alarm clock. When he checked the time, he got a fright - it was already 6 o'clock on the second day, and he had sat there for nearly eighteen hours.

  Get up quickly, move around the numb legs, brush teeth and wash face, change clothes, continue daily morning run, while running still muttering that if not for setting the alarm clock every day, otherwise I don't know when I would wake up, and if I'm late for work, I'll really get scolded by my director! It seems that in the future, if I want to practice qigong, I have to set the alarm clock well, otherwise I don't know how many things will be delayed.

  In the following days, in order to rush towards a higher level of Yu Ye period, Ye Nan started practicing cross-legged meditation every day after work, but as a result, he rarely went online recently.

  Ye Nan has been working for a year, and every day after work, he would spend his free time online, even becoming a moderator on a local forum in Dongjiang City. This Dongjiang People Forum is quite popular, with at least thousands of locals from Dongjiang hanging out there every day.

  Dongjiang Forum often organizes some activities, and every time an activity is held, Ye Nan is pulled by the forum's management to help with organization and coordination. Occasionally, he also guest-hosts at some Christmas and New Year's parties organized by the forum. With his handsome and slightly androgynous face and enthusiastic attitude, he is quite popular among local netizens. The name "Ye Qingkong" still has a pretty good reputation in the local online community.

  Just got off work and was still on the bus, the phone rang. Ye Nan took out his mobile phone to take a look, it was forum administrator Ah Xiang. Only then did Ye Nan remember that he had been busy with his job for several days and hadn't logged onto QQ or the forum for three or four days, now she was looking for him.

  Speaking of this forum manager Ah Xiang, in the Dongjiang online community, he is a very famous figure, notorious for being lewd and obscene.

  For the first time on the Dongjiangren Forum, people thought Ah Xiang was a beauty because this cheap person not only had a name that sounded beautiful, but also had a forum avatar of a charming beauty. Her specialty was drinking and dancing after getting drunk. Her striptease and pole dance were a topic of interest among the old folks on the Dongjiangren Forum.

  Newbies in the forum were confused and dizzy when they heard about it, often being played around by him. However, when newbies saw the real person with excitement and admiration, they all stared blankly and vomited everywhere! It turned out that this person was six feet tall, weighed 180 pounds, was a standard little fatty, and was a male.

  However, Ah Xiang is extremely generous and enjoys drinking and having fun with others, likes to foot the bill, and is very popular. Ye Nan often benefits from this as well!

  As soon as Ye Nan answered the phone, he heard a familiar roar from the other end: "Little kid, what have you done? Haven't seen you for days!"

  Ye Nan's ears were ringing from the voice, and he quickly moved his phone away from his ear, dryly laughing: "Heh heh, Ah Xiang Po, I've been busy lately, really no time to go online!"

  "Never mind about anything else, Hurry up to Wuxiang Pavilion 308." Just after hearing this sentence, a "beep..." sound came from the other end and it hung up.

  Ye Nan had long been accustomed to Ah Xiang's style, put away his phone, rubbed his belly, and was already a little hungry. He said, "After eating boxed lunches for several days, today I'll improve my diet and also see the group of wolves from the forum that I haven't seen in a long time."

  Got off at the next bus stop, wanted to hail a taxi, but looked around for a long time on the road, all taxis were full, it was rush hour now, and it's not easy to wait for a taxi.

  Next to them were two people, who also seemed to be waiting for a taxi. After finally getting an empty car, Ye Nan rushed up: "Master, Wenxiang Pavilion." The two people next to him were one step slower and stood outside the car, looking at Ye Nan with a sullen face.

  Ye Nan pretended not to see, this year's hands are fast and slow, brother, my stomach is hungry, can't afford to be polite. As soon as he got on the car, A Xiang called again to urge him, Ye Nan hurriedly replied: "On the bus, will arrive soon."
