After a long time, he learned that the breathing method is the most suitable method for refining the Life-Prolonging Pill. He picked up the pill furnace and refined the previously prepared pill embryos into pills one by one, obtaining a total of 150 pills.

Then, Lin Yu put these pills into a special jade bottle, and then slowly left the pill refining room.

This day was exactly the second day at noon after Lin Yu entered the pill refining room, and the disturbances in the outside world temporarily subsided.

When he appeared, the people around him immediately surrounded him, full of expectation.

"Did you succeed?"

Facing everyone's eager eyes, Lin Yu smiled and took out the jade bottle and said: "It lived up to expectations. According to the agreement, everyone will get one Life-Prolonging Pill. But please remember, it is best to take this pill when life is in danger."

Subsequently, Lin Yu asked Wu Shuping to bring a few small jade bottles, each containing a pill.

Ma Yuanfeng took the jade bottle, moved to tears, and promised on the spot: "I represent the Longcheng Ma family to assure you that from now on, Master Lin's affairs are our Ma family's affairs. As long as you speak, we will definitely go all out."

Hu Mingpeng directly handed over a donation agreement and said respectfully: "This is 10% of Tianrun Wanjia's shares, please be sure to accept it. From now on, you are our shareholder and board member."

Although a little resistant, under Hu Mingpeng's repeated insistence, Lin Yu reluctantly accepted this generous gift and stated that it was only this once.

At this time, Chu Yueyun held the jade bottle and said coquettishly: "Since you are not interested in wealth, then give me to you."

Her words caused a burst of laughter from everyone, Ma Yueshang joked: "A moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold, we old guys won't disturb you."

Others also expressed their gratitude and blessings, and then left one after another.

And Lin Yu called Hua Weixin to remind him of the severity of Hua Lao's condition and the effect of the pill. Hua Weixin accepted the suggestion gratefully and said he would send a special gift as thanks.

Lin Yu nodded slightly and said in a heavy tone: "Uncle Hua, we have to go to the hospital quickly, Hua Lao's situation is very critical."

After sending Hua Weixin away, Zhongcaotang gradually returned to tranquility.

Lin Yu, who was about to take a rest, suddenly saw Zhou Min walking out slowly from the inner room, "Lin Yu, old classmate..."

"Zhou Min? Why are you here?" Lin Yu asked in surprise, not expecting his high school friend to appear here.

Zhou Min looked a little embarrassed, "Lin Yu, I heard that your medical skills are very superb, can you help my mother take a look?"

Wu Shuping added from the side: "Yes, they have been waiting here for a whole day. Her mother's condition is very complicated."

Lin Yu looked at Zhou Min's mother suspiciously, "Has she been 'locked'?" He could hardly believe his ears.

Wu Shuping nodded in confirmation and explained: "Yes, it is 'locked'. I haven't heard this word for many years."

Hearing this strange term, Zhou Min asked anxiously: "What does 'locked' mean? Is it really serious?"

Lin Yu replied seriously: "It is indeed very serious. This is an extremely rare and insidious technique, which is very difficult to treat."

At this time, Xiao Chengzhou, who claimed to be the Thief King, also walked out and said in shock: "Is there still someone using this technique now?"

Lin Yu was not familiar with Xiao Chengzhou, but soon understood the other party's identity and purpose.

Xiao Chengzhou bowed respectfully to introduce himself, and then began to explain in detail what "locking" is.

He said that there is an old saying in the Jianghu: there are three fears in walking the Jianghu, fear of stealing, fear of poison, and fear of locking.

Especially this last one, the most daunting.

The so-called "locking" refers to affecting the human meridians through specific techniques, causing the victim extreme pain, but unable to lift it by themselves.

Different techniques will lead to different symptoms, ranging from systemic convulsions to severe headaches, and Western medicine is helpless about this. Even experienced traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, if they don't understand the unlocking method, dare not try to save them easily.

Once the unlocking order is wrong, the consequences may be fatal. Locking is easy, but unlocking is as difficult as going to heaven. This skill should have disappeared thirty years ago.

Xiao Chengzhou bowed to Zhou Min's mother with a face full of guilt and apologized: "The Rong Sect is famous for locking, and I am therefore called the Thief King.

But I think this technique is too vicious, so I never intended to pass it on. The ice lock you have been hit with is exactly what someone who understands this technique deliberately did."

Everyone was shocked, not expecting to meet a real "locking" master.

Although Lin Yu has a way to unlock this lock, he needs to constantly try different acupuncture point combinations through acupuncture, the process is long and complicated, and may take from one month to half a year.

There are more than 300 acupuncture points in the human body, and finding the correct unlocking order is by no means easy.

Just when everyone felt fortunate, Xiao Chengzhou suddenly knelt in front of Lin Yu: "Pavilion Master Lin, I am willing to lead three thousand Rong Sect disciples to defect to you, and offer the Rong Sect Eight Techniques to you, just ask you to cure my granddaughter's illness."

Lin Yu hesitated in his heart. After establishing Yulong Pavilion, they suffered retaliation from Western medicine, causing many members to be injured. If he could subdue the Rong Sect and let its members protect Yulong Pavilion, it would indeed be a good choice.

So he put forward three conditions to Xiao Chengzhou: "If you can do the following three things, the Rong Sect will become a part of Yulong Pavilion. First, help her unlock."

Xiao Chengzhou was overjoyed and agreed immediately. He walked to Zhou Min's mother and said: "Offended, I want to check which ice lock you have been hit with." Then he carefully checked her arms and meridians.

"Locking and unlocking are based on the human body's extraordinary eight meridians, which is one of the Rong Sect Eight Techniques." Xiao Chengzhou explained while pressing various acupuncture points quickly and accurately, "Lesser Merchant.", "Supreme Mountain.", "Valley Stream.", "Lesser Surge."...

Under his treatment, Zhou Min's mother's pale face gradually regained blood color, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Finally, Xiao Chengzhou used all his strength to slap her back, shouting in his mouth: "Ice lock opens, heaven and earth are set, one palm opens the Yellow Sparrow."

In this way, the ice lock was successfully unlocked, saving Zhou Min's mother.

With Xiao Chengzhou's last light slap, Zhou Min's mother spat out a cold blood clot!

Subsequently, everyone was surprised to see her face quickly regain vitality.

Just one minute later, she looked radiant, not at all like the sick person before.

Although her figure was still thin, the whole person looked brand new.

Lin Yu was even more shocked, because he found that Xiao Chengzhou's technique had traces of Profound Medicine inheritance.

Rather than saying it is one of the Rong Sect Eight Techniques, this so-called "locking and unlocking" is more like some kind of long-lost mysterious gate massage technique.

Lin Yu didn't expect that there would be such traditional medical inheritance in this pickpocket family.

So he said to Xiao Chengzhou: "From now on, follow me, find a time to pick up your granddaughter and see if you can cure her illness."
