How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?!-Chapter 358: Sufficient to Shake the National Situation (Daily Recovery: 6,000)
Chapter 358: Chapter 358: Sufficient to Shake the National Situation (Daily Recovery: 6,000)
Over the past four days, Mother has become more agreeable, but going out with a Han man clearly goes beyond mere conversation.
If I bring it up and Mother flips out with her big stick on the spot, what do I do then?
However difficult it might be, what needs to be said must be said.
April 10th!
The fifth night since Lin Xiaosu entered the Miao Village.
The fire was blazing, and there was a broad smile on Mother’s face.
Yixiang spoke up, "Mother, little Su is leaving tomorrow."
Mother’s smile remained, "Is it something very important?"
"Yes, very important, involving many people’s lives," Yixiang said.
Mother nodded, "Then go... Do come over whenever you have time in the future!"
"Sure!" Lin Xiaosu replied with a smile, "Auntie’s small river shrimps are especially delicious, I’ll definitely come often in the future to eat."
Mother’s face beamed with joy.
Yixiang said, "Mother, I also have to go with him this time, the matter mainly concerns detoxification."
"Hmm, alright!"
Yixiang was dumbfounded at Mother’s simple nod.
That night, Yixiang stayed awake for most of the night.
Early the next morning, they got up. Mother unusually didn’t go out and prepared them a hearty breakfast in the kitchen. Then, watching them ride Yixiang’s small motorcycle onto the mountain road.
Little Hu jumped onto the courtyard wall, sitting on it like a dog, with an exasperated look as he watched his little companions.
Yes, Little Hu didn’t go with them.
But little Wu did!
Little Wu, the small white turtle, was in Yixiang’s backpack.
For one simple reason: each specialized in different skills.
Little Hu’s skills were fighting, protection, and herb gathering.
While little Wu’s skills were detoxification.
Their mission this time was not to fight, but to detoxify.
And Little Hu’s role was to stay home and protect Mother.
The little motorcycle drove on, ahead was Wangfu Cliff.
No one knew how many Wangfu Cliffs there are in all of Daxia.
Most were endowed with some old-fashioned myth or legend.
But the Wangfu Cliff here seemed to be given a new-era legend of the thousand-year-old Miao Village.
So many Miao girls were deceived, losing themselves, waiting here for their brothers to return home...
"Brother, stop for a moment at Wangfu Cliff!" Yixiang leaned towards Lin Xiaosu’s ear and whispered in the morning breeze.
The little motorcycle came to a screeching halt.
Lin Xiaosu smiled, "You don’t need to wait at Wangfu Cliff today, you need to go out with your brother."
"Brother, don’t you feel something’s not right?" Yixiang said.
"What is it?"
"I thought all night last night, couldn’t figure out why Mother agreed to let me go with you... I suspect... I really suspect..."
"Suspect what?"
"I suspect Mother put a gu on you!" Yixiang gritted her teeth, speaking her mind directly.
Lin Xiaosu was stunned, "That’s impossible, Auntie seemed so kind-hearted."
"It’s precisely because she’s so kind-hearted that I increasingly believe she must have put a gu on you!" Yixiang said, "Little Wu! Do a full body check on brother!"
With her command, the small white turtle in her backpack leaped out, landing on Lin Xiaosu’s shoulder.
Little Wu was enveloped in a misty white light.
Extraordinarily peculiar.
It was following its owner’s orders, conducting a full body check on Lin Xiaosu.
Yixiang widened her eyes, focusing intently on this white light.
The peculiarity of little Wu was its ability to overcome all kinds of foreign matter.
If Lin Xiaosu had been poisoned with a gu, it couldn’t escape its detection.
Yixiang was almost certain, Mother must have put a gu on him!
Otherwise, Mother would never have allowed her to leave with him.
Yet, from Little Wu’s top to bottom, all was purely clean, there was not a trace of gu on him.
"No gu!" Yixiang murmured, "Mother actually really didn’t put a gu, this..."
Lin Xiaosu held her waist, whispering seductively in her ear, "Don’t you Miao people have an ancestral adage? A gu harming people is essentially still humans harming humans, Auntie knows I would never harm you, so there is no need to waste that love poison on me."
Yixiang was entranced.
A gu harming people is essentially still humans harming humans.
Eleven words in a sentence.
Passed down through the Miao’s thousand-year-old tradition.
Such painful enlightenment, yet such a high level of condensation.
Miao people have been harmed so often, so there’s a counteraction with gu technique.
A single gu word, how many testimonies of people’s painful experiences?
Today, she and her brother jumped out of the thousand-year tradition.
She knew her brother was good to her, and Mother knew too...
The hearts of mother and daughter, it seemed to truly resonate at this moment...
She was so relieved, she was so happy.
"Little Wu, return!"
Little Wu dived back into her backpack. Yixiang climbed back onto the small motorcycle, riding with the joy of having untied a knot in her heart, down the Wushen Mountain in the morning breeze.
"Brother, where shall we go?"
"Jiangcheng! The provincial capital of my hometown," Lin Xiaosu said.
"Jiangcheng is so far away, are we taking the high-speed train?" Yixiang was very happy, firstly because she rarely went out, secondly because she was going out with her brother, and if there was a third reason, it was that she was going to his hometown.
"We’ll take the flying car!"
"What? A flying car? Brother, you... you even have a flying car?" Yixiang was surprised.
Although flying cars had been around for a while, they were still as elusive as a mountain to ordinary people.
Who in an ordinary family could afford a flying car?
Not to mention a flying car could cost millions, even if you had one, who could obtain air travel rights?
And brother actually said we’ll take the flying car...
"I don’t have a flying car, but for this operation, we need one!" Lin Xiaosu said, "Look, it’s already here!"
Yixiang looked up and saw the flying car in the sky, so mysterious, so high-end.
The flying car landed at the base of the mountain.
Lin Xiaosu’s motorcycle also arrived just in time.
He parked the motorcycle in the spot where he and Yixiang had parked during their last trip to Taichong, and led Yixiang straight onto the flying car.
On the flying car, there was a woman with light blue hair and a slight smile on her face.
"Now I understand why you didn’t look for Chang Ye and came to me instead. I see, I see!" Blue Demon’s eyes, with a hint of charm and allure, swept over the pretty Yixiang.
She immediately understood the reason Lin Xiaosu had asked for her presence.
Logically speaking, if Lin Xiaosu needed help from Qianlong, the first person he should contact would be Chang Ye.
After all, he and Chang Ye were very close.
Close enough to share a bed.
However, today he skipped Chang Ye and directly contacted her, the Blue Demon!
Now the reason was clear.
He brought a Miao girl with him!
Could the Miao girl meet Chang Ye?
Meeting wouldn’t end in a fight?
Therefore, unscrupulously, he bypassed Chang Ye and sought her out.
"King Lantian, don’t overthink it!" Lin Xiaosu said, "I didn’t look for Chang Ye and instead came to you for only one reason. This matter is too big, with her authority, she might not be able to mobilize Qianlong’s resources."
All distractions in Blue Demon’s mind vanished with that single sentence.
She lightly tapped a button, sealing the flying car.
"Tell me! What’s going on?"
Lin Xiaosu and Yixiang sat down, and a steaming cup of tea appeared once the armrests flipped.
Entering mission mode.
Lin Xiaosu said, "This mission will surpass your imagination, and its severity will make you break out in a cold sweat!"
Blue Demon’s eyes were extremely calm: "I’m prepared, go on!"
"In the land of Da Xia, a new strange Gu technique has appeared. We have reason to believe that on every front line, tens of millions have already fallen victim!"
Blue Demon suddenly broke out in a light sweat: "What kind of Gu technique?"
Lin Xiaosu raised his hand slightly, a cold medicine pill appeared in his hand: "Inside it is a type of Gu worm, called the Life Soul Gu, once consumed, the Gu worm silently enters a person’s brain, enters long-term dormancy, and just upon smelling a certain fragrance, the Gu worm will destroy the brain, and the person will be gone!"
Blue Demon’s heart raced: "Are you sure countless people have already fallen victim?"
"What I’m saying is, there’s reason to believe!"
Certainty and reason to believe...
Blue Demon had to admit that the two terms seemed worlds apart yet were largely similar in essence.
If this was a tactic by the ultimate opponent, the Nine Headed Snake, its level of terror could surpass all other missions.
The Nine Headed Snake has constantly focused on infiltration.
Their chosen targets are not ordinary people.
With just one Gu pill disguised as a regular drug entering someone’s body, their life would be at the mercy of the poisoner!
This method of poisoning is almost impossible to guard against, a thousand times simpler than implanting a chip in the brain.
Everyone has a chance of falling victim.
One with intentional scheming, another with unconscious acceptance...
Anyone could be taken advantage of.
And with the Gu worm able to remain dormant for a long time, such terrifying creatures combined with time accumulation...
What could the outcome be?
Even a generation of Qianlong King shivered involuntarily.
"This is terrifying!" Blue Demon said, "little Su, maybe I need to take this pill back to headquarters immediately and trigger the highest alert!"
Initially, she thought that Lin Xiaosu skipping Chang Ye and coming to her was making a mountain out of a molehill.
After all, she was a king, not an errand runner.
Yet, Lin Xiaosu’s few simple words turned Blue Demon’s entire understanding upside down.
If what he said was true, then Lin Xiaosu coming to her was not at all exaggerating; indeed, her rank was still too low!
For the matter was significant, unimaginably significant.
It could even overturn the entire structure of Da Xia.
"Go back to headquarters, trigger the highest alert, then what?" Lin Xiaosu asked, "Hold meetings to discuss? Formulate countermeasures? Wait for the enemy to take out key nodes and individuals before launching a protracted war of attrition against you?"
Blue Demon lightly nodded: "I understand your point, this matter... even if presented on Chief Long’s desk, would only add weight to the event itself, without aiding its resolution... Do you have a solution?"
"Somewhat!"
"Somewhat... and some more?" Blue Demon’s eyes brightened slightly: "Let’s hear it."
"The first critical point... we need to have bargaining chips to contend for life determination rights with the enemy! The sons of Da Xia, elite across all fronts, cannot be allowed to lose their lives at the enemy’s whim!"
"Well said!" Blue Demon responded: "So, do you have such bargaining chips?"
Lin Xiaosu said, "That’s the real reason I entered Miaojiang! With Yixiang’s help, we’ve developed a drug capable of suppressing Gu worms. Under the influence of this drug, even if victimized by the Gu technique, we can forcibly pull them back from the Ghost Gate!"
Blue Demon trembled all over, and her beautiful eyes finally fixed directly on Yixiang’s face...
She slowly stood up and bowed deeply to Yixiang: "Yixiang, I must thank you!"
