From Joy of Life to Becoming a Saint

Chapter 40 No, you really can? (Big guys, read the data and pull it up!)

In the study, Chen Qiye was holding a medical book and reading it carefully. This time he was reading seriously, as he was the only one in the study.

And it looks like he has been reading for a long time. The desk in front of him is already filled with piled high books. If you look closely, you will find that these books are all about medical knowledge.

Medical knowledge related to human acupuncture points, acupuncture, etc.

As his reading level improved, he could now basically read one page at a time, at a fast speed and with a photographic memory. After the Niulan Street incident, Chen Qiye would often take time to read medical books.

There was just one thing that he didn't understand. He had read all the medical knowledge recorded in books in the world, even some knowledge about the use of poisons. There is a saying that "all medicines are three parts poison", so if one wants to improve medical skills, detoxification is also a way to improve them.

However, even though he had read so many books and memorized most of the theories, all he gained was experience in the [Reading] skill, and his medical skills were not even activated.

Chen Qiye thought, could it be that the system cannot generate the skill of medical skills?
Or does it mean that you have to practice medicine yourself to be effective?

A knock on the door interrupted Chen Qiye's thoughts.

"Master, Mr. Fan Xian is here to visit you. He said he is here to thank you. He has been invited into the living room."

Chen Qiye's eyes moved, and he really came.

When he appeared in front of Fan Ruoruo, he knew that Fan Xian would definitely come to find him.

Fan Ruoruo is the darling of the Fan family. If I save her, both Fan Jian and Fan Xian will be grateful to me.

Given Fan Jian's status, it is naturally not appropriate for him to come in person to express gratitude, so it would be most appropriate for Fan Xian to do so.

It is suitable both in terms of emotion and identity.

He pushed open the door and walked out of the study, heading straight to the living room. The maid Ye Xiaoling followed behind him like a curious baby and asked in a low voice.

"Master, when did you save Miss Fan Ruoruo?"

"And we can even have Mr. Fan Xian come to our house in person to express our gratitude. That's Mr. Fan who wrote "Climbing High"!"

Chen Qiye glanced back at her: "Why! Do you admire him?"

Ye Xiaoling grabbed his sleeves with both hands and shook her head like a rattle: "Master, don't get me wrong. I admire you. Even Master Fan came to visit you."

Chen Qiye was just teasing her, of course he wouldn't be so bored, so he reached out and tapped her forehead.

"Behave yourself when outsiders are around. Look at you, do you still look like a maid?"

Ye Xiaoling puffed up her cheeks: "Oh!"

Chen Qiye ignored her and walked straight to the living room.

Soon, Fan Xian, dressed in white, was seen sitting in the guest seat, drinking tea poured by a servant.

Looking at the white clothes, Chen Qiye suddenly remembered the third young master of the Bai family who might have been reincarnated. He was also a young master in white, but the difference was very big.

Fan Xian is handsome, and even prettier than the courtesan in Zuixianju. He is worthy of being the protagonist of Joy of Life.

Chen Qiye walked into the living room and clasped his fists and said with a smile, "I have long heard that Mr. Fan is a man of integrity, good looks and high talent. Today I see that he is indeed as good as the rumors say, and even better than them. He came to my house in person, and I am so frightened that I lose my composure."

Fan Xian found these words of greeting a bit strange.

He raised his hand and said politely: "I heard from Ruoruo that Master Chen is a generous and casual person. In fact, I prefer to be more direct. Today I am here to thank Master Chen."

"Saving Ruoruo means saving me, Fan Xian. If Master Chen doesn't mind, then we are my friend, Fan Xian. There's no need to be so polite." Chen Qiye walked to the main seat and sat down. "I am just a playboy from a remote area. My family background is decent in the local area, but it is insignificant compared to the young masters in Kyoto. The identity of Master Fan's friend is something I cannot afford."

Feeling that the other party seemed to deliberately keep a distance from him, Fan Xian did not say much about this issue.

I heard from Fan Sizhe that this person likes Ruoruo, and Ruoruo seems to have a very special attitude towards this person. This is a situation that he has never seen before, so in addition to thanking Chen Qiye today, he also came to observe this person.

If Ruoruo really likes someone, he will not stop her, but he cannot let his sister be deceived by someone.

From the moment he entered the Chen Mansion and had a few simple conversations with Chen Qiye after he appeared, Fan Xian realized that Chen Qiye was definitely not just a young master from a small place.

Although his attitude seems to be modest, a closer look reveals his natural confidence.

It was not normal for a young man from a small place to be so natural in front of the Fan family. Even if his strength might have reached the eighth rank, he should not have such courage.

In a place like Kyoto, eighth-rank warriors are basically thugs working for other people. They have status, but no one dares to be so self-sufficient and proud like this.

Fan Xian thought about it and asked this question.

"I heard from Ruoruo that Master Chen was born with a special physique. Not only can he drink astonishingly, but drinking can also enhance his Qi. I wonder if this is true?"

Fan Xian knew his sister's personality best. What she knew happened to be what Ruoruo liked the most, so he couldn't help but doubt it.

If Hu was lying to Ruoruo, then the fact that Ruoruo had an accident that day and was rescued by this person... would be quite intriguing.

Fan Xian's expression was calm. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for outsiders to know that he had begun to doubt Chen Qiye in his heart.

But when Fan Xian asked this question, Chen Qiye knew that Fan Xian was beginning to test him.

This was exactly the effect Chen Qiye wanted, to make Fan Xian focus on the question of whether he approached Fan Ruoruo on purpose.

He smiled and said, "To be honest, Master Fan, although it sounds a bit bizarre, Chen can indeed store true energy by drinking."

"Chen figured out a way to regulate his breathing by himself. When he used this method to regulate his breathing while drinking, he could surprisingly feel a hint of true qi in the wine."

In fact, what he said was not nonsense. Nuclear radiation is everywhere in this world, and naturally there is also radiation in alcohol. Others may not be able to extract this kind of true energy, but he can.

This is a small effect of the [Drinking] skill. After drinking alcohol, the stored true energy can be increased very slightly.

Chen Qiye looked at Fan Xian, as if to prove that what he said was true, and raised his hand to Xiaoling beside him and said, "Go get me a jar of wine."

"Okay, Master."

Soon, Ye Xiaoling reappeared in the living room with a jar of wine. Chen Qiye took the jar, opened the lid and started drinking.

This scene made Fan Xian stunned. He inexplicably felt that Chen Qiye now seemed to have some of the chivalrous aura of a hero in the world of Jianghu. It seemed that Ruoruo was not deceived by the deliberately created illusion.

After drinking the wine, Chen Qiye threw the jar of wine away, and then slapped the table and chairs on the other side.

There was a "boom".

The tables and chairs instantly broke apart. Fan Xian stood up in surprise and sniffed, only to find that the remaining Qi did smell a bit like alcohol.

With a strange and surprised look on his face, he said, "Oh my god, there really is a Bacchus spell?"
