Hidden Moth

Chapter 110: Fine Frost Fine Wind Fine Rain Sounds


Regardless of whether she could accept it emotionally, Meng Ya judged rationally that He Kao was probably telling the truth. According to his story, these matters were already an open secret at the Magic Sect level and could be easily verified.

For example, the orders, announcements, and investigation actions and results from the Ancestral Hall could not be fabricated by He Kao. Any Magic Sect Disciple should be able to determine their authenticity.

But the problem was that Meng Ya was not a Magic Sect Disciple at all. After Peng Xian disappeared, she did not know any Sorcerers, and the Magic Sect had no idea someone like her existed.

He Kao was just a stranger she met for the first time. Could Meng Ya overturn all her previous knowledge based on his words alone? Who could prove He Kao wasn't a talented writer who deliberately made up a story to deceive her?

He Kao nodded: "Words alone hold no proof, unless..." He paused here, took a sip of water, and then continued, "unless you are given a chance to verify it yourself."

At this time, his cup was empty, and Meng Ya was waiting for more. Seeing he stopped talking and seemed to be pondering, he was probably thinking about how to give her such an opportunity?

Xiaomiao had already finished her shift, but left a kettle on the cashier's desk. Meng Ya got up to take the kettle over and refilled He Kao's water, then asked, "How can I have such an opportunity? What are the conditions?"

He Kao: "Three things."

Meng Ya: "Please, tell me!" She instinctively tightened her collar.

He Kao: "The first thing, please adhere to the law! To my knowledge, the Operator at the 110 center is not allowed to divulge emergency information from work.

In special circumstances, a careless mistake could even lead to families being destroyed!

And what did you do? Peng Xian is a heinous criminal, and you tipped him off from within the police. At that time, he and his associates were hunting down Hidden Moth, using every means possible, not sparing any clues.

You casually mentioned a name, suspecting it was related to Hidden Moth, which could have brought disaster upon someone..." As he spoke, He Kao became a bit agitated, his tone unconsciously turning severe.

Meng Ya lowered her head more and more, tears dripping onto the table, trembling as she said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know, I really didn't know..." She no longer knew how to continue.

He Kao calmed his emotions and said in a low tone: "Even if you didn't know Peng Xian's true nature at the time, what you did violated the law!

You didn't think you were doing that job; you were completing the task Peng Xian gave you. But for everyone else, you were the Operator at the 110 emergency center!

Now that you know everything, you should all the more mend the mistakes you've made.

The incident and related information should never be disclosed to anyone else again. Otherwise, you will not only bring danger to others but also bring disaster to yourself.

This is the first thing I ask of you, and you must do it; otherwise, no one will give you any opportunity again."

With tearful eyes, Meng Ya raised her head and said, "I will definitely do it. What else is there?"

He Kao asked back: "Your current Cultivation is up to the Entry Level of the Observing Body Sect as a Tier One Diagnoser. How is your cultivation of the sect's Fundamental Technique and the Secret Transmission Candle Illumination Skill going?"

Meng Ya: "Recently, I've had little mind for Cultivation. Before this, I seemed to hit a bottleneck in cultivating the Fundamental Technique, feeling no progress no matter how hard I tried.

So, half a year ago, I started focusing on cultivating Applied Techniques, trying to break through in a different way, mainly cultivating Candle Illumination Skill.

I have some experience with Observing Body and Observing Self, but as for Observing Others, I have only a bit of understanding at the moment."

The Observing Body Skill begins with Lowering the Curtain and Listening, engaging in introspection to perceive qi movement. Entry Level is marked by reaching a state of 'the empty room produces illumination' in the Fixed Realm. The 'empty room' refers to oneself; 'illumination' is a metaphor for insight.

So the Observing Body Skill uses "Introspection" as the entry point. Introspection isn't like a CT scan in a hospital; it's more like comprehensive sensory utilization, allowing one to examine various states internally.

Sorcerers of the Observing Body Sect have special advantages in some areas, even those with congenital frailties can train and possibly achieve Entry Level.

Because they can always detect what's wrong with themselves and make targeted adjustments.

The Candle Illumination Skill, on this basis, is a unique Applied Technique of the Observing Body Sect. The realm of Introspection is focused on oneself, and then using "Observing Self" as experiential basis to observe others.

A Tier One Diagnoser employing Candle Illumination Skill to observe others can't achieve the clarity of Introspection on oneself, but can judge the state of qi and blood flow, thus determining if someone has issues and what kind they might be.

From ancient times, fortune telling in stalls, aside from those purely using tricks, those who can genuinely see something often aren't just Tier Four Divine Sticks from the Lingxi Sect but mostly Tier One Diagnosers from the Observing Body Sect.

While Meng Ya thought she had reached a bottleneck in her cultivation, the more important reason was that the road ahead was unclear and lacked guidance. The Candle Illumination Skill she cultivated, while she only claims to have some understanding, is a level most Tier One Sorcerers can reach.

He Kao pondered: "I have a friend with an excellent congenital foundation but quite depleted postnatally. The second thing I ask of you is to help see how he can make specific restorations and adjustments."

Meng Ya: "You want me to help cure him? But I'm only a Tier One Diagnoser, not yet a Tier Two Roaster, I can diagnose but not cure!"
