Chapter 376: Chapter 376 Let’s Go
A single sentence blocked Tang Haowan’s curiosity.
Tang Haowan knew that some hermit-like figures always have their exclusive trademarks; perhaps the contents of this bottle were Mr. Chu’s trademark?
Tang Haowan thought to himself, yet his face showed no sign of it.
He gratefully said to Chu Ge, "Thank you, Mr. Chu, for saving me from peril multiple times and now for healing my crippled legs. I, Tang Haowan, will forever remember your great kindness. In Su City, even though other families are rapidly advancing, our Tang Family is still one of the leading families. Should Mr. Chu ask for anything, I will do my utmost."
Tang Haowan seemed to think of something and then said to Chu Ge, "By the way, since Mr. Chu is an Ancient Martial Artist, you probably can understand the ancient martial arts secret manual, right?"
Chu Ge’s eyebrows lifted slightly in confusion as he looked at him, "Ancient martial arts secret manual?"
Tang Haowan nodded, "Forty years ago, by a fortunate coincidence, I came into possession of a secret manual. I studied the ancient text in it for a long time without understanding, until later, when I met a disciple from the Tang Sect, who deciphered a few simple ancient characters and learned that it was an ancient martial arts secret manual, and since then I have kept it."
It was precisely because of this ancient martial arts secret manual that a subtle connection formed between the unrelated Tang Sect and Tang Family, which, as connections grew, still remains an inseparable part.
Chu Ge felt a momentary stir in his heart, "May I take a look at it?"
Tang Haowan gestured invitingly, "Please follow me, Mr. Chu."
Arriving at the study in the main building, Tang Haowan took out the secret manual from a secret chamber; it was an ancient book, very well-preserved without any damage.
"This is the secret manual," Tang Haowan was aware that the Tang Sect was willing to associate with their Tang Family because of this ancient book.
Chu Ge took it over and glanced at it; on the cover, the words "Heart Skill" were strikingly written.
These two characters of Heart Skill were written in a special script which ordinary people couldn’t understand.
Chu Ge could understand because for him, these two characters were far too familiar.
Holding the book, Chu Ge’s face uncontrollably showed excitement as he looked up at Tang Haowan and asked, "May I know where Mr. Tang acquired this book from?"
Seeing Chu Ge’s excitement, Tang Haowan subconsciously thought that this ancient martial arts secret manual was extremely precious, and wondered if using this book to repay Chu Ge for his kindness might be appropriate.
Speaking of the origin of this book, I do feel somewhat embarrassed," Tang Haowan said with a bitter smile, "It probably happened around forty years ago. Back then, I was only twenty, young and in my prime. I had already heard about the rumors of ancient martial arts, so I was constantly searching."
"Later on, while on the way home, I encountered a group of bandits who seemed to be fighting among themselves. At that time, I was still young and curious about everything, so I stayed to watch the excitement. When someone got killed during the fight, the killer panicked and fled, leaving his belongings behind."
Tang Haowan continued, his face turning into an awkward expression, "At that time, the pack looked bulging, so I decided to check it out, and that’s when I discovered this ancient martial arts."
Chu Ge seemed to remember something from the past, standing there quietly, looking down slightly, lost in thought.
Tang Haowan saw his dazed look and asked with some puzzled, "Mr. Chu, did you notice something?"
Chu Ge came back to his senses, shaking his head, "This is written by my mentor. Although it can’t be called a secret manual, it greatly aids ancient warriors in cultivating their temperament and spirit."
When Tang Haowan heard this, his eyes widened in shock and he looked at Chu Ge, "Mr. Chu, are you saying that this is a book written by your mentor?"
Chu Ge nodded, "This is probably the only relic he left in this world for me."
Chu Ge looked sincerely at Tang Haowan, "This book is of no use to ordinary people, and although there are only ten pieces of Spiritual Liquid in this bottle, one piece is sufficient to strengthen and heal an ordinary person. I wonder..."
Before Chu Ge could finish, Tang Haowan understood his implication. His face slightly darkened, and he spoke with a touch of displeasure, "Mr. Chu, to speak like this really embarrasses me. This book has been in my possession for thirty years now and I haven’t been able to decode it. It only shows that this book and I were not meant to be. Although our Tang Family does have members who participate in ancient martial arts, I do not wish them to get deeply involved. And since Mr. Chu once saved my life and healed my legs, acting as my reborn parents, since this book was written by your mentor, I should return it to you as ’return the validation’."
Chu Ge looked at him gratefully and after expressing his thanks, passed him the bottle of Spiritual Liquid.
"This Spiritual Liquid will also help with the recovery of your legs, please accept it."
Hearing this, Tang Haowan no longer resisted. He thanked Chu Ge again then locked the precious bottle of Spiritual Liquid in a safety box.
Tang Haowan recalled that previously Chu Ge had mentioned his approach to the Tang Family and his timely intervention had a purpose, but what that purpose entailed remained unknown.
Seeing Chu Ge in a good mood today, Tang Haowan couldn’t help but seize the moment to ask, "Mr. Chu, I remember you once mentioned needing something, and that at the right moment you would ask us for it. May I know what it is?"
Chu Ge chuckled lightly, "My original goal was for the Earth Ganoderma, but now, I’ve found a better substitute, so there is no longer a ’right moment’ to ask for anything."
Tang Haowan then remembered that not long ago they had seized Earth Ganoderma from Huo Tianqian in Shanghai, which had also been gifted to him by Tang Family’s State as a present.
Speaking of which, he felt quite ashamed, Tang Haowan laughed at himself, "I wish I had known Mr. Chu sooner; if I had, these misunderstandings wouldn’t have happened."
If he had known Mr. Chu earlier, he might have been able to walk like a normal person sooner.
Tang Haowan came all the way from Little Red Building and was now hastily walking from Little Red Building because he was anxious.
Even after the last treatment, his legs still felt no heaviness, instead, they were surprisingly light.
Chu Ge once again thanked Tang Haowan and then said, "It’s about time, shall we go, Old Master Tang?"
Looking at the time, Tang Haowan saw it was already twenty minutes past ten in the morning, he nodded continuously, and without even a chance to get dressed properly, he and Chu Ge went to the hospital together.
