Chapter 166: Chapter 166 Sword Shattering the Void
"What kind of elixir did you give me to eat?"
Grandma felt that she was no longer dizzy, her vision no longer blurred, and her legs were strong again; she felt as if she could go out and till two acres of land.
The white hairs on her head were gradually turning from white to black.
She tasted a salty and fishy flavor in her mouth. When she opened her mouth to spit, it was all blood.
"What’s happening to me?"
Grandma was remarkably calm, even so, she didn’t suspect Shen Siyuan would harm her.
"The teeth you lost are going to grow back. Just rinse your mouth and you’ll be fine."
"Grow back?" Grandma was somewhat astonished.
"What kind of Immortal Pill is this? Have I become immortal now?"
"Is it bad to be immortal?"
"What’s good about it? At grandma’s age, living is suffering."
"Grandma, you shouldn’t talk that way. I was hoping that you would live to see me get married and have children."
"Right, right, right, that’s exactly what I wanted to hear," Grandma said.
"You go rinse your mouth first." Shen Siyuan gave her a cup of water.
"I feel an itching at the roots of my teeth."
"That’s the new teeth growing. The few remaining teeth might fall out as well, to be replaced with new ones."
"Where did this Immortal Pill come from? It’s wasted on me, Grandma. Have you taken any yourself? What about your parents?"
"Don’t worry, everyone has their share, but Grandma, you mustn’t tell outsiders about this."
"I know, Grandma is not senile. This Immortal Pill isn’t something just anybody can eat, right? If others found out, they would be jealous and it would bring you trouble..."
At noon, Shen Siyuan had lunch with Grandma and then bade farewell.
Watching Shen Siyuan’s receding figure, Grandma walked back to the house with her hands behind her back.
As she walked, she mumbled, "How come I am so spirited? It’s noon and I’m not the slightest bit sleepy. Really wearing out this old body of mine..."
Though she said this, a smile had already bloomed across her face.
Siyuan has changed a lot since his last visit, coming with Immortal Pills... Has he met an immortal?
-----------------
Qionghai is abundant with mineral resources underground, having identified up to 59 types, 36 of which have value for mining.
These mineral resources include gold, silver, copper, iron, lead, tin, aluminum, nickel, manganese, titanium, zirconium, quartz, marble, graphite, etc.
Qionghai also possesses the largest rich iron mine in Asia, accounting for about 70% of the national reserves, ranking first in quality nationwide.
Shen Siyuan had no background in geology and didn’t know how to prospect mines, but when the Primordial Magnetic within his body connected with the earth’s magnetic field, the pervasive and omnipresent magnetic field told him where ample mineral deposits were situated.
Thus, he quickly located a metal mine.
As the Primordial Magnetic in him linked with the earth’s magnetic field, the Gold Qi within the vein surged wildly, extracted from the depths of the earth. Numerous streams of Gold Qi moved in the direction dictated by the magnetic field, forming a powerful magnetic moment.
These magnetic moments, under the influence of the external magnetic field, aligned in a uniform direction, enhancing the magnetism of the material. The movement of these materials inevitably generated electric charge and current, and occasional tiny electric sparks burst into the air. Some objects, due to the magnetic field, even floated midair.
It was fortunate that this was in a remote wilderness, otherwise it would have created a huge electromagnetic storm, destroying all electronic products.
Shen Siyuan sat at this mine site for a day and a night, only feeling that the Gold Qi inside him was replenished, balanced with the other Four Qi before he stopped. Now, he was only lacking Fire Qi.
Thus, he stood up and set off without delay towards the Northern Qiongbei direction. The Qiongbei Region has experienced a total of 10 stages and 59 volcanic eruptions since the Cenozoic era, forming over a hundred volcanoes of various sizes and shapes.
His mind immersed in the Sea of Consciousness, unaware of how much time passed in the outside world, not needing to discern direction, the earth provided him with guidance.
He scaled mountains, trekked through jungles, passed villages, stepped into rarely treaded places, wandering aimlessly, yet his body remained spotless, and no mosquito, snake, or ant could touch him, because the magnetic field around him flourished, forming a magnetic barrier.
These flying insects, snakes, and ants couldn’t get close; they either perished on the spot from the chaos in their internal magnetic fields or became disoriented and fell from the sky.
So, after another three or four days passed.
On a Monday morning, Zhou Chuan arrived at the company and was surprised to see Shen Siyuan’s seat empty.
"Shen Siyuan didn’t come in today?"
"I was the first one here this morning, didn’t see him," said Wang Chao, taking up the conversation.
Zhou Chuan frowned slightly, then raised his head and asked Chen Hao, "All the work Shen Siyuan was handling, it’s been handed over to you, right?"
"It’s all been given to me, don’t worry, there’s no problem."
Chen Hao gestured an ’OK’ with his hand.
Hearing this, Zhou Chuan breathed a sigh of relief. As long as someone was taking care of the work without any issues, he wouldn’t worry.
But he couldn’t help but mutter to himself.
"What’s this guy been up to recently?"
"The guy’s got a rich sugar mama now, doesn’t matter to him whether he shows up to work or not. He might just quit his job in a few days. We’re still struggling every day, suffering through this."
Wang Chao said sarcastically.
"Then you should find yourself a rich sugar mama too; nobody’s stopping you. Don’t you want to?" Hehehe...
Known as Tian Duidui, Tian Yunrui immediately teased him back.
The tactless Li Kang joined in, "It’s not that he doesn’t want to, it’s that he doesn’t have what it takes. With his looks, if he got close to a rich woman, she’d think he was a kidnapper or a robber. It’d be kind if she didn’t call the police on him."
"Ha ha..."
Wang Chao was pissed off and snapped back immediately.
But you couldn’t really blame Li Kang because Wang Chao’s favorite haircut was a buzz cut, right down to the scalp, and with his looks, he really did look like he had just gotten out of prison.
The original somber atmosphere in the office instantly became lively.
-----------------
Meanwhile, Duoduo had also returned from Xiajing with her parents.
Lin Jianming and his wife wanted to visit Shen Siyuan, but they hadn’t been able to get in touch.
Duoduo told them that her brother was in a distant place, not in Bin Hai, so they temporarily gave up.
It was a good opportunity to look at houses with Lin Libo.
Lin Libo was quite efficient. After being instructed by Lin Jianming, he had already checked out several houses in the past few days, just waiting for Lin Jianming to come back and pick whichever one he liked. With money, everything was easier.
Naturally, Duoduo followed them around.
Dou Dou, originally looking forward to playing with Potato, felt that the distance was too far, so the lazy little guy didn’t feel like running around and stayed home to accompany her parents.
As for Xiao Yue, she had been tagging along with Grandpa Liu for the past few days, busy searching for Ruan Hongzhuang’s grandmother’s whereabouts, so she didn’t have much time to think about anything else.
-----------------
Ruan Hongzhuang, who hadn’t received any news from Shen Siyuan, was also looking rather anxious at this moment.
Although Shen Siyuan had already informed her that he would be breaking contact with her during his cultivation period, and she said she understood, the continuous lack of news for several days still made her worried.
According to the original plan, he should have returned today, Monday.
Ruan Hongzhuang also tried calling Shen Siyuan, but the phone was either out of service area or turned off.
She got up and went to the window, only to see dark clouds gathering outside, a heavy storm about to start.
This only added to her gloomy mood.
Jiang Taoshi pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing Ruan Hongzhuang standing at the window, she approached and said, "President Ruan, there’s a document that needs your signature."
In the company, she usually addressed her by her title.
Ruan Hongzhuang turned around upon hearing this, with a stern expression, and said, "Remember to knock before entering."
Jiang Taoshi wasn’t at all afraid of her and stared intently at her.
Then, with a smile, she asked, "What’s wrong, you look upset. Did someone dump you?"
Just as Ruan Hongzhuang was about to speak, a flash of lightning streaked across the sky, suddenly brightening the world, followed by a rumble of thunder.
Frightened, both of them screamed and instinctively embraced each other.
"Hee hee~"
"Hmph~"
Darkness fell again, but at that moment, a rainbow cut through the sky, lighting up the entire earth. The brilliant light flooded the world.
Ruan Hongzhuang released Jiang Taoshi, turned around abruptly, and looked up at the sky, her face showing surprise and joy.
