Divine fortune teller and traditional Chinese medicine doctor
Chapter 19 Polite Refusal
"Sir, we were deeply impressed by your amazing skills just now! Therefore, I sincerely hope you can join our billiards association. A rare talent like you is truly one of a kind in my lifetime!"
Xu Hui said in a sincere tone.
"Yes! This old gentleman is the most talented snooker player I've ever seen! To achieve a 147 break twice in a row! My goodness, that's incredible!"
Lü Xiaomeng also exclaimed in surprise.
Her eyes were filled with reverence when she looked at Li Mu.
This Lü Xiaomeng is actually a billiards prodigy; she even won the city-level snooker championship last year.
In addition, she is very beautiful and is known as the Snooker Queen in the billiards world of Qianlong City.
Li Mu's amazing performance just now truly shocked her.
As the saying goes, a martial artist is guided by his martial arts. As a professional snooker player, one understands best how difficult and remarkable it is to achieve a 147 break twice in a row.
"Um, join the billiards association? What can you do?"
Li Mu blinked and asked.
"Of course, you should participate in higher-level competitions! It will also bring honor to our Qianlong City! With your abilities, you might even be able to go international and bring glory to the country!"
Xu Hui said.
"I'm 68 years old, how can I participate in a competition?"
"Of course! There is no upper age limit for international snooker tournaments. As long as you are physically fit and have excellent skills, your age is not a problem."
To be honest, Li Mu was somewhat tempted by what the vice president of the billiards association said.
Firstly, he genuinely enjoys playing billiards, and in his youth, he even dreamed of becoming a professional player and bringing glory to his country.
Now that we have such a great opportunity, why not fulfill our long-held dream?
For Li Mu, receiving the Guiyuan Tianyi Technique was equivalent to being reborn.
Now that I've been reborn, I should live life to the fullest and follow my heart, so that I won't have any regrets in my life.
Dreams that couldn't be realized before, we must strive to achieve now.
Secondly, with the amazing transport technology now available, playing billiards is like having a cheat code, which is definitely a lucrative path to wealth!
"Um... I'm getting old, and I don't have that kind of ambition anymore. Thank you both for your kindness."
After pondering for a moment, Li Mu politely declined the offer.
He believes that a person of great stature should have the arrogance and demeanor of a person of great stature.
With his current skills, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him an unparalleled football god!
How can you agree to an invitation just because someone invites you?
Besides, Li Mu also wanted to see if the other party truly had the sincerity to seek out talent like the legendary poet Zhuge Liang who visited Zhuge Liang three times.
"Um... sir, could I have your contact information?"
Xu Hui was clearly unwilling to give up and continued to ask.
"Can."
Li Mu gave the other party his phone number and then left with his hands behind his back.
"Teacher Xu, we haven't asked this expert's name yet!"
As Lü Xiaomeng watched Li Mu's departing figure, she suddenly remembered something and said.
"It's alright, as long as we have his phone number. I never expected that our Qianlong City would have such a hidden snooker master!" Xu Hui exclaimed.
"Yes, the skill this old gentleman just displayed is absolutely world-class! His accuracy, ball control, and effortless demeanor are truly top-notch!"
"We absolutely cannot miss out on such a rare talent! We must bring him into our association, no matter the cost!"
Xu Hui said firmly.
"Yeah, to be honest, I'd even like to become his apprentice!"
Lu Xiaomeng nodded vigorously and said.
"Hehe, not just you, I want to become his apprentice too!"
……
After arriving on the first floor, Li Mu walked straight out of the Jinhao Entertainment City. He was going to the supermarket to buy a pack of cigarettes.
Actually, he had quit smoking for several years, but seeing so many people smoking in the billiard hall just now, the strong smell of smoke seemed to have reignited his craving.
Besides, he's very healthy now, why would he be afraid of smoking?
Having survived a brush with death and received a new inheritance, Li Mu's mindset gradually changed.
He felt that he should try to live a happier life in the future, do whatever he wanted, follow his heart, and be himself!
If you want to smoke, then smoke!
There was a supermarket a dozen meters to the left after leaving the entertainment center. Li Mu had just bought a pack of cigarettes and was leaving the supermarket when he suddenly heard a pitiful scream coming from the street.
Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a stray, vicious dog tearing at a little girl.
Several passersby didn't dare to approach and stood aside shouting.
Without a second thought, Li Mu rushed over and kicked the stray dog, sending it flying.
He then quickly picked up the little girl, who was trembling with fear, and prepared to return to the pedestrian walkway on the curb.
Uh...
However, just as Li Mu was about to lift his foot while holding the little girl, a car suddenly crashed into him.
Li Mu was startled and instinctively pushed off with both legs, rolling onto the left curb to avoid the obstacle.
But he protected the little girl very well, and he himself was not injured. His movements were agile and smooth, just like a stuntman in a movie.
This reaction and movement were entirely a natural application and control of the body in the martial arts tradition. Li Mu himself was surprised that he was able to successfully dodge in such a dangerous situation.
Several onlookers were stunned.
I thought to myself, is this old man a fake?
Aren't there those prank videos online where young people pretend to be old people?
Crunch!
Before Li Mu could stand up, the car's wheels screeched to a halt, leaving a trail of white smoke as they came to an emergency stop.
click!
The car door opened, and a stunningly beautiful woman with a slender figure and long, wavy black hair stepped out of the driver's seat.
"Grandpa, are you...are you alright?"
The beautiful woman quickly walked to Li Mu's side and asked with concern.
"I'm fine."
Li Mu patted the dust off his legs and answered.
Although it was dangerous just now, he couldn't blame the beautiful female driver.
After all, the girl was knocked onto the road by a vicious dog, so even if she was hit by a car, it couldn't be the driver's responsibility.
Moreover, it was clear that the female driver was trying very hard to brake.
"Oh no! The child is bleeding! Come on! I'll take you to the hospital!"
The beautiful woman noticed that the little girl being held by Li Mu had blood all over her legs and immediately exclaimed in surprise.
"Um... she wasn't injured by a car, she was bitten by a vicious dog just now."
Li Mu told the truth.
The little girl, however, remained gripped by immense fear, sobbing with her large, dark eyes wide open.
"Oh? You were bitten by a dog? You need to get to the hospital right away! Grandpa, don't hesitate, come on, get in the car! I'll take you to the hospital!"
The female driver was adamant and pulled Li Mu into the car.
At the same time, she also felt that the old man was quite kind and did not try to extort money from her.
Li Mu also felt that this woman had a kind heart. Although he didn't know the child who was dressed in tattered clothes and looked like a homeless child, the child was seriously injured and definitely needed to be taken to the hospital as soon as possible.
Of course, he could try to use the Returning Origin Spiritual Energy to heal the child and stop the bleeding, but he was worried that using such super-cognitive abilities in front of everyone would cause unexpected trouble.
He asked the little girl where her home was and where her parents were, but she didn't answer.
He even shouted loudly in all directions, but no one came to look for the little girl.
With no other option, he could only get into the woman's car with his child and head to the hospital for treatment.
The woman was driving a top-of-the-line Mercedes-Maybach, a rare luxury car in Qianlong City.
This was the first time Li Mu had ever ridden in such a high-end luxury car.
The car smelled wonderful, and the driver was beautiful. Only then did he realize what a beautiful car and a beautiful woman truly meant.
"Little one, does it hurt a lot? What's your name? Where are your parents?"
Li Mu then asked the little girl.
But the little girl just stared at Li Mu with her big, teary eyes, without saying a word, and occasionally sobbed.
"Grandpa, you don't recognize this child?"
The beautiful female driver asked Li Mu a question while driving.
"I don't know her. I saw a vicious dog biting her, so I rescued her," Li Mu replied.
As he spoke, he quietly channeled a wisp of his spiritual energy to the tip of his right index finger and pressed it against a wound on the little girl's ankle.
This was his first attempt to treat external injuries with Guiyuan spiritual energy, and he was unsure of the results.
zizi...
To his astonishment, the wound began to stop bleeding and heal at a speed visible to the naked eye!
The little girl showed almost no signs of pain.
What the hell!
This Primordial Spirit Energy is too overpowering when it comes to healing external injuries!
Li Mu exclaimed inwardly.
He thought to himself, "Luckily I didn't rashly use my spiritual energy to heal the girl just now, otherwise passersby would probably think I'm a monster."
However, after the wound had fully healed, what shocked him even more was what happened when he removed his fingers from the little girl's ankle!
