#262 - Chapter 262 The situation inside the meridians!

Lin Chen closed his eyes, controlling his internal energy to try and clear the accumulated impurities from Xu Mengyao's wrist meridians.

Some of these impurities were ordinary substances.

Some were various kinds of chaotic energy. To ordinary people, this energy might not exist, but Lin Chen, possessing internal energy, could perceive them.

"System, these accumulated impurities are difficult to clear."

Lin Chen said in his mind.

The impurities in the meridians weren't like silt in a pipe, easily cleared away.

The meridians were like the inner wall of an iron pipe, rusted. Many impurities had already bonded with the meridians, and forceful cleaning might damage them.

The system said, "Host, this is normal. The older one gets, the more the meridians are affected, and the harder they are to recover. Xu Mengyao is still young; her condition is considered good."

"It should take you half a month to clean the main meridians."

"If it were your parents... with your current cultivation, you wouldn't have the ability to help them clean their meridians at all."

Lin Chen asked, "If it takes half a month, how much time will I have to spend cleaning Mengyao's meridians each day?"

System: "Host, at least five hours. Cleaning Xu Mengyao's main meridians will take about eighty hours. If you add the smaller meridians, the workload will increase several times over."

Lin Chen: "..."

"System, can I clean them while Mengyao is asleep?"

"Yes."

Lin Chen muttered to himself, that's a bit better. Xu Mengyao is busy; how could she spare five hours every day?

Before, he didn't sleep with Xu Mengyao at home. This time, sleeping in the same bed every day, she'll probably get used to it by the time they return.

He can hold Xu Mengyao while sleeping and clean her meridians.

"Husband, what's wrong with me?"

Xu Mengyao asked Lin Chen worriedly.

Lin Chen had been taking her pulse for a long time, and his expression was serious.

"It's nothing."

Lin Chen withdrew his hand and smiled.

Xu Mengyao: "Husband, there's definitely something wrong. When have you ever taken someone else's pulse for so long?"

"Tell me, I can handle it."

Lin Chen said, "I wasn't just taking your pulse just now, I was using my internal energy to enter your meridians and check them."

"My strength has increased a bit, right? When the time comes, I can help you clean your meridians. If your meridians are cleaned, you can also practice martial arts in the future."

Xu Mengyao's heart leaped with joy.

"Husband, didn't you say my talent isn't as good as Qianqian's, and even if I cultivate, it won't be very effective?"

Lin Chen: "Your talent is indeed not as good as Qianqian's, but I'm not expecting you to become very powerful in the future. It's enough if you can beat three or five men."

Xu Mengyao's talent is still decent.

If her meridians are cleaned and she learns a bit, beating three or five ordinary men should be entirely possible.

This way, her self-protection ability can be greatly improved.

"Daddy, I'll protect Mommy with you."

Lin Xiaoqian said in a childish voice from the side.

Her insistence on practicing is largely related to this. Lin Xiaoqian had seen Xu Mengyao crying secretly before, and had encountered Xu Mengyao waking up in fright from her dreams many times.

She wants to protect her mother.

"Yes, together."

Lin Chen touched Lin Xiaoqian's little head and said, "Wife, can we go out? I'll call Chen Lei."

"Okay."

Xu Mengyao nodded.

Two hours later, Lin Chen and the others arrived in the wild. They arrived at a huge pasture, and the endless grassland provided a very good visual experience.

In many places, various colors of small flowers were blooming in the grass.

"It's so beautiful."

Lin Xiaoqian ran out of the car as soon as she got out.

"Daddy, come chase me."

Xu Mengyao smiled and said, "Husband, you play with Qianqian for a while first. We have plenty of time; there's no need to rush to take pictures right away."

"Okay."

Lin Chen chased after her happily, "Qianqian, do you still remember how Daddy taught you to run before?"

Five minutes passed.

The system's voice sounded in Lin Chen's mind: "Host, your Light Body Skill - Grass Tread is starting to improve."

When exercising outdoors, Lin Chen occasionally taught Lin Xiaoqian to run, but he didn't spend much time on it.

It takes thirty hours to reach the Grandmaster level, and he has taught Lin Xiaoqian for a total of only five or six hours.

There's very beautiful grassland here, and Lin Xiaoqian is happy to run around here. Over the next few days, the Light Body Skill - Grass Tread skill should be able to improve a bit more.

Of course, Lin Chen doesn't force it.

If Lin Xiaoqian is willing to run, he will teach her; if she's not willing, then forget it.

"Daddy, you can't catch me."

"Daddy, there's a butterfly over there."

Lin Xiaoqian ran around very happily.

Xu Mengyao looked at Lin Chen and the others with a sweet smile on her face.

Chen Lei whispered, "President Xu, there are two cars following us. The one closer is your bodyguard, right?"

"There's another car in the distance."

Xu Mengyao turned her head and looked.

They drove over in a high-end RV. There was a black SUV a few dozen meters away from them, and an off-road vehicle about three hundred meters away.

"It's okay, they're all protecting us."

Xu Mengyao said.

She knew that both cars contained members of the National Security Agency.

Chen Lei smacked his lips secretly, it's good to be rich. When going out for a trip and taking pictures, even one car isn't enough for the bodyguards.

"Xiao Jun, launch a drone."

A man in the car in the distance said.

The Xiao Jun he was talking about was Cheng Xiaojun. Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiaojun quickly opened a box and took out a drone.

Both of their cars carried ten drones. The cars could charge the drones, ensuring that most of the drones were fully charged at all times.

"Take off, radius of two kilometers."

"Search for long-range attacking enemies."

Cheng Xiaojun said, putting on a pair of smart glasses.

Two kilometers was enough to ensure safety. Beyond this distance, it would be very difficult for a sniper to hit Lin Chen and the others.

"Buzz--"

The drone immediately flew out.

Within two kilometers, there were other cars and tourists. The drone would quickly make judgments as it flew overhead.

In the summer, people wear fewer clothes. As long as long guns cannot be hidden on or around their bodies, they will be directly judged as non-threatening targets by the drone.

--Long-range attacks, even if the enemy has a pistol, it won't work.

Soon, a photo appeared on the smart glasses Cheng Xiaojun was wearing.

The person in the photo was carrying a large backpack. What was in the backpack could not be seen, and the drone could not judge.

This requires the operator to judge manually.

If someone took out a gun, the drone could directly judge it.

"Mark as a suspected target, continue searching."

Cheng Xiaojun said.

The drone immediately marked this person. After flying around in a circle, the drone marked a total of ten or so people.

During the next patrol, the drone would focus on checking them.

If the suspicion decreases, the mark will be removed. If the suspicion increases, Cheng Xiaojun and the others can manually check.

"Captain, Mr. Lin's drone is really useful."

Cheng Xiaojun said.

They had used drones before, but they weren't this convenient. The drones they used required them to operate them.

If they only needed to operate one drone, perhaps there wouldn't be much difference, but with Lin Chen's, they could control a thousand, even ten thousand at the same time.

"So we must never let anything happen to Mr. Lin."

Cheng Xiaojun's captain said in a deep voice, "Everyone keep a close eye on things and deal with any abnormalities immediately."
