At this moment, listening to the other party's story, he ignored the other party's frequent mention of "our sister" because of his shamelessness. When Chen Xiaoyao said the last sentence, when he heard the other party say with his own ears that he had figured out what disease his sister was suffering from. , in an instant, He Fei's expression wrinkled and his heart beat wildly!
Overly shocked, the college student looked excited, grabbed Chen Xiaoyao's shoulders and asked anxiously: "What did you say? Do you know what disease my sister has? What is it? Tell me quickly! Tell me!"
Feeling the dull pain in the opponent's shoulder due to excessive force, and looking at the anxious face in front of him, Chen Xiaoyao said nothing about him and never struggled. Yes, he could understand, and he could deeply understand what He Fei was feeling in his heart at this moment. How eager and nervous, so naturally, when faced with the questioning, Chen Xiaoyao no longer smiled playfully, stopped talking nonsense, nodded and replied:
"Well, yes, I do."
"What is it? Tell me quickly, tell me quickly what disease are those teachers and students like He Mengtong suffering from?"
"Um, this..."
"Speak quickly, hurry up, don't whine!"
Finally, under He Fei's repeated urging, after hesitating for a moment, Chen Xiaoyao said in a complicated tone: "Well, it's not impossible to tell you the answer, but you have to be calm, you must be calm, and I'm telling you the answer. I have to correct a small mistake before, that is, I just used some words incorrectly. Strictly speaking, the albinism symptoms that can make the whole body weak are not a disease at all. Since they are not diseases, this is why medical methods cannot treat them. Location, actually..."
"Let's talk first, don't be afraid after I tell the truth."
Having said this, he paused for a moment and stared at He Fei cautiously. After confirming that the other party was relatively stable, Chen Xiaoyao said something as if he had made a decision, a statement of horror that could make anyone's hair stand on end: "Well, In fact, your sister and none of the teachers and students were sick, but... were poisoned by some extremely vicious witchcraft!"
………
Witchcraft originated from an ancient and vicious magic technique thousands of years ago. This technique is similar to witchcraft but different from witchcraft. It is often used to harm people and belongs to the category of ancient evil magic.
In layman's terms, most of the so-called poisonous insects refer to poisonous insects, and the art of witchcraft and poisonous insects is a terrible method that uses some strange means to harm people caused by poisonous insects. The art of witchcraft and poisonous insects has been around for a long time and rarely appears in modern times, but in country Z It is still spread in Miao and Southeast Asia.
Regarding witchcraft, He Fei doesn't know or understand it. Not only does he not understand it, but no modern person understands it. People's superficial understanding of witchcraft mostly comes from movies, TV series or books. Take He Fei for example. In his personal impression, the so-called witchcraft is similar to sticking a needle into a doll, but who would have thought that the real witchcraft is far from simple. Let the person who is poisoned die in pain, and even die without knowing how he died.
After hearing Chen Xiaoyao's conclusion, He Fei felt like he was struck by lightning!
Then, the young man began to tremble and sweat began to form on his forehead. He was afraid, but this fear was not due to his own fear, but from concern for his sister's life.
As just described, it is true that He Fei does not understand witchcraft, but he has often heard of this term from various books or movies and TV dramas. He knows that it is a very powerful thing, and even after hearing it He felt chills in his heart when he heard the word "witchcraft". Fortunately, he knew how to control his emotions. Otherwise, at this moment, he would not only be trembling with body and sweating on his forehead.
Forcibly controlling his inexplicably trembling body, he suddenly came to his senses. The college student shifted his vision and looked directly at the other party:
"Witchcraft, you said Xiaomeng was poisoned? How did you know?"
Sure enough, after hearing the college student's puzzled inquiry, Xu had already expected it. In addition, he was never vague about business matters. As soon as He Fei asked, Chen Xiaoyao immediately changed his expression and put on an incompatible expression. With a rare serious attitude of his personal character, he finally frowned and explained: "You ask me why I know about this? Well, it's not your fault. As an ordinary person, it is completely normal for you to not understand, but I am different. Unlike you, I am a Taoist priest, a serious Taoist priest from Maoshan. Although the art of witchcraft and poison has basically nothing to do with my Chinese Taoist sect, one of the essences of my Maoshan Taoism is to accept all kinds of things from hundreds of schools of thought to be on guard and practice. The great task of subduing demons and eradicating demons, that is to say, even though we Maoshan Taoist priests all practice orthodox Taoism, there are still many information introductions deliberately recorded in the Taoist classics to fight against evil arts. When I followed him in Lushan Master has been involved in Taoism for several years. Not only has he read a large number of Taoist classics, but he has also told me some things about witchcraft that can harm people when teaching. I admit that as a Taoist priest, I don't understand the so-called "separate lines are like mountains". Witchcraft doesn't prevent me from understanding this kind of magic. In fact, when I saw your sister for the first time, I vaguely sensed that something was wrong. It wasn't until I checked her pulse in person that I fully realized that something was wrong. I am sure that your sister is not sick, but has been poisoned by poison. To be precise, she should have been poisoned by the white tiger poison among the poisons."
White tiger Gu! ?
Having said this, Chen Xiaoyao paused for a moment, then touched his messy hair, and then continued on by himself under the gaze of He Fei's blankly surprised eyes: "Here I have two pieces of news, good and bad, to tell you. , the good news is that although your sister was poisoned by the poison like other teachers and students, she is a chronic white tiger poison that is not too powerful. Yes, after a preliminary examination of your sister, I found that this kind of poison is not too powerful. The poison will consume all the physical energy of the victim over time, and the external manifestation is that the body will gradually turn white and spread. When the white area completely covers the human body, it means that the poison has completely consumed the victim's physical energy. We Taoists It is said that people live in this world with both spirit and body. It can be simply understood that the reason why people live depends on the dual support of spiritual and physical energy. Both are indispensable. Once the excessive use of spiritual power causes energy exhaustion, the person will undoubtedly die. The same , people will die if their physical strength disappears. There is no denying that this poison called white tiger poison is a chronic erosion and cannot kill people quickly, but its fatality rate is as high as 100%!"
"And it is worth mentioning that under normal circumstances, this kind of voodoo is often used in ancient battlefields, such as when two armies confront each other. If both sides have similar strengths, neither can destroy the other in a short period of time. Once a long-term confrontation is formed, one side will often specially invite The witch and Gu master inflicted White Tiger Gu on the enemy army, which caused the enemy soldiers to lose their physical strength rapidly and eventually defeated themselves without a fight. This kind of evil magic gradually disappeared until modern times, and the White Tiger Gu has never appeared again, but... I didn't expect it. Unexpectedly, after hundreds of years, we would see him again in this little Zaozhuang city!"
One hundred percent fatality rate!
Ding!
After hearing the other party's explanation, He Fei's heart suddenly rose to his throat. His whole body was covered with sweat and his limbs were cold. Fortunately, he was not completely frightened. After the initial panic, the next moment, the young man reacted and hurriedly used Looking expectantly, he turned to Chen Xiaoyao: "White Tiger Gu? In that case, as a Maoshan Taoist priest who is proficient in alchemy, you, you should have a way to remove it, right?"
His eyes were full of expectation, and his words were almost trembling.
Looking at the expectant look on He Fei's face in front of him, Chen Xiaoyao remained silent.
To be honest, he wanted to pat his chest and proudly say that he could solve it, and then enjoy the collective admiration of the He Fei brothers and their whole family, but in fact...
He couldn't help it.
I really have no choice but to deny that I am indeed an authentic Maoshan Taoist priest who understands yin and yang. However, unfortunately, he does not understand Gu. Just like in reality, various professions can be described by the words "Jie Shan". Regarding the art of witchcraft and Gu, he Just understanding the surface layer, there is no way to crack it.
(Why.)
After a moment of silence, Chen Xiaoyao could only helplessly shake his head and said truthfully: "I just said that I have good news and bad news. The good news is that the white tiger Gu will not kill you quickly, and the bad news... I'm sorry, although I know this But I don’t know how to crack this kind of poison, so I’m sorry that I can’t do anything about it.”
The dull tone was full of helplessness, and the frustrated voice was slightly unwilling.
As for He Fei...
The young man was silent. After asking for an answer, he froze in place like a statue and remained unresponsive for a long time.
Seeing that the college student's face turned pale for a moment and his expression was dull, he wondered if he had thought of something. The next moment, with a turn of his eyes, Chen Xiaoyao added another sentence, a hint that instantly broke the silence and gave He Fei hope:
"But there is a saying that goes well, to untie the bell, the person who tied it needs to be tied. As long as we can find out the witch master who caused the poison, the antidote will naturally be available by then, but it must be done quickly. With your sister's current situation, I can’t last more than a few days.”
(To untie the bell, one must tie it. It seems that 21 High School is a must-go!)
Sure enough, as soon as Chen Xiaoyao said this, He Fei, who had just been extremely disappointed, instantly regained his hope, and then turned to Chen Xiaoyao and confirmed: "You just said that you can cure it by finding the person who planted the poison, right?"
"Well, yes, it's a pity that the sea of people is huge, and we don't have any clues. It's difficult to find this person..."
Since he didn't know that the college student had conducted an investigation earlier, Chen Xiaoyao could only sigh and tell the truth when asked. It seemed like this. Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, He Fei's reaction was unexpected. He directly responded in a straightforward and decisive tone: "It's not difficult, I now know where the real murderer is!"
"What! You, you actually found out?"
"You don't have to be so surprised, this is what happened..."
Relying on his eloquence, He Fei began to tell Chen Xiaoyao a series of encounters he had experienced since returning to the real world without reservation. The process also naturally included speculation about the identity of the person who caused the poison. For example, the person who caused the poison was very likely. From other executive teams!
"Actually, when you just found me, I originally planned to go to 21 High School to find the bastard who played the poison. In addition, Captain Liu of the police station will also go with him."
As He Fei finished his narration, Chen Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment. In addition to being shocked by the twists and turns of the incident, He Fei was more surprised. Yes, he was surprised, very surprised. He was surprised that the other party's investigative ability was so strong. It took only two days to find out the general truth of the incident. Another thing that surprised him was that he did not expect to encounter other members of the executive team in the real world!
Even though He Fei had clearly told everyone in the past that they were not the only executive team in the Cursed Space, the shock brought by Leng Budu's knowledge of the above news was still huge, and it was still enough to surprise He and Chen who were now in reality.
Of course, surprise is surprise, and shock is shock. In fact, the above is no longer the focus of Chen Xiaoyao's consideration. What is the focus?
The key point is whether they are sure to catch each other! ?
Yes, unlike He Fei who was a little impatient because he was eager to save his sister, Chen Xiaoyao had more things to consider than him. First of all, one thing is certain, that is...
If the other party is really an executor and comes from another execution team in the cursed space, how should the two parties contact each other based on the fact that both parties are executors?
Should we try to negotiate peacefully first and then obtain the poison antidote from the other party? .
What should I do if the other party doesn't agree? Use force? But once force is used, what chance does one have of winning?
Yes, the above are the questions and concerns that arose in Chen Xiaoyao's mind after learning the truth. After thinking about this, he immediately narrowed his eyes and asked He Fei: "Since you have decided to go immediately, then we are taking the initiative to show our goodwill and seek help." Should it be resolved peacefully? Or... by force?"
Listening to the pun-laden question, He Fei instantly understood what Chen Xiaoyao was worried about. After hearing this, the college student did not answer immediately this time. Instead, he frowned and paced thoughtfully under the gaze of the young Taoist priest, and stretched out his hand. He touched his chin, finally raised his head and answered in an uncertain tone: "For the sake of Xiaomeng's life, I will first try to negotiate a settlement with the other party and then obtain the poison antidote, but..."
Speaking of this, He Fei paused for a moment, but unexpectedly his expression suddenly turned cold at the next moment. Then he changed the topic and said one sentence through gritted teeth in an angry tone:
"If the other party refuses, then I will prevent him from seeing the sun tomorrow!!!"
………
Compared with other senior players, strictly speaking, Chen Xiaoyao has not been in the team for a long time. It is true to say that, but after a period of contact, He Fei got to know this person. It is true that his personality is funny and his face is full of scorn. However, once the critical moment comes, this person is very reliable. He is usually casual but never loses control at critical moments. In addition, he is quite loyal. Sure enough, after learning that the college student planned to rush to 21 High School, Chen Xiaoyao categorically expressed his willingness. They went together, and He Fei was also not the kind of person who was ink. After confirming that the other party was resolute, the college student walked to the roadside without hesitation and waved to stop the car.
So, taking a taxi, the two rushed to No. 21 High School together.
Time, 17:53.
The sky turned black and the light disappeared. After the last futile struggle, the sun finally set in the west and sank into the earth under the growing black squeeze and disappeared without a trace. It was replaced by darkness, the endless sky that enveloped the sky. Night.
Rumble.
Under the night, there were vehicles driving on a certain road leading to the suburbs, emitting a roar. A taxi was driving along the road. In the car, He Fei unexpectedly did not continue to discuss the details of the matter with Chen Xiaoyao, but instead talked with Chen Xiaoyao. The other party stared at each other, using the car lights to look at something in He Fei's hand.
An empty bottle of mineral water with a worm in it.
A strange white worm about 10 centimeters long.
Looking at the strange insect in the bottle, Chen Xiaoyao kept observing with serious eyes. This white insect was exactly the insect that emerged from the brain of the skinned man after He Fei killed him last night. He Fei had caught him at that time. An empty bottle of mineral water. One day later, the bug was now dead. However, even though the bug was dead, Chen Xiaoyao still looked at it carefully and stared at it for a long time with a solemn expression.
Time passed by second by second, and it was not until two minutes passed that the young man took a deep breath, raised his head and said to He Fei: "Well, it's not wrong, this is a Gu worm, a real Gu worm, and this is the first time you encountered it in school. The skinned weirdo is actually not a living person."
"you mean……"
"What I mean is that the skinned man you met at school last night was actually just a corpse. It is conceivable that a person who has been dead for a long time can be beaten to death. Well, to explain it in professional terms, The skinned people call it Gu Zhi, Gu Zhi. As the name suggests, it refers to a corpse controlled by voodoo insects. After the voodoo bugs enter the human brain, they can use their special characteristics to connect to the brain nerves and then control the actions of the corpse. The external manifestations are: The corpse was miraculously resurrected, but unfortunately this kind of resurrection was meaningless. Even if it could move, it was actually just a walking corpse without self-awareness, a corpse puppet controlled by the master of the poison, the poisoner. The puppet had no sense of pain and no It has consciousness and no physical limitations. Because of this, the puppet has power and speed that is far superior to ordinary people."
"Of course, it sounds simple, but it is not easy to make this kind of puppet Gu corpse. The production conditions are extremely harsh. It is said that the Gu must be implanted into the head at the critical moment when the person is about to die but is not yet dead. Only by Only in this way can a Gu corpse be made. In addition, the Gu worm that can control the corpse is also cultivated using a special secret method. Not many people in the world know the inside story. In other words, this is a secret technique that belongs to even ordinary people. It is an advanced secret technique that even witches and Gu masters cannot master. Gu corpses are difficult to destroy. The only weakness is the head. Since the Gu worms must parasitize the brain to control the corpse, this is why the puppet will die if you blow the head with a gun. That’s why Captain Liu’s shots to the body were completely useless.”
Not to mention, there are really many benefits to having a companion who knows a lot about strange things and magic. Even if the other person is only superficial, after listening to Chen Xiaoyao's explanation, He Fei still feels that he has learned a lot. In addition, , when he looked at the insect corpse in the bottle, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart. He really didn't expect that this little insect could be so terrifying. Fortunately, he had accidentally blown the puppet's head, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!
His thoughts were running and his mentality was ups and downs. As he thought about everything, He Fei's eyes became increasingly solemn and he unconsciously turned to Chen Xiaoyao, and then said in an uncertain tone: "That means..."
He Fei didn't finish what he said, but even if he didn't finish his words, Chen Xiaoyao still understood the meaning of the other party's words in an instant, nodded, and connected the words with a dignified tone that was almost the same as that of a college student, along with He Fei's unfinished words. After finishing speaking, he opened his mouth and added: "In other words, the guy we are about to face is not only a witch and Gu master, but also an extremely powerful witch and Gu master!"
In the back row, two young men were talking to each other, and their continuous conversation was naturally transmitted to the front row, and was heard by the driver who was driving.
At the beginning, he could understand the conversation between the two. Unexpectedly, as the conversation gradually deepened and became weirder, the driver was surprised to find that he could not understand what the two in the back were saying. Even so, But the corpses, witches, and bugs that frequently popped out of the other party's mouth were words that could make people shudder when they heard them, but they stimulated him all the time. Hearing this made him feel upset, and he didn't know if he even thought of anything. Or the random thoughts gradually escalate, looking out the car window at the night, looking at the road that is becoming increasingly sparse with vehicles as it gets closer to the suburbs...
"Gudu."
After swallowing, the driver finally couldn't help it anymore. He couldn't help but turned around and asked the two people in the back row in a tentative tone: "Well, um, you two should be students from the acting department, right? What was the conversation you two had just now? Are you reciting your lines?"
As mentioned above, in order to know themselves and the enemy, He Fei and Chen Xiaoyao were originally discussing countermeasures with the help of clues from the insect corpses. Unexpectedly, they gradually ignored the driver in front of them as they talked. It was not until the other party was afraid to ask that they suddenly realized that they had gone too deep into the conversation. It actually scared the driver. At this moment, listening to the driver's tentative questions, the two of them didn't understand the reason? The driver just finished speaking. The next moment, Chen Xiaoyao smiled and nodded at the driver and laughed: "Hahaha, the driver really has good eyesight. Well, you guessed it right, we are indeed students of the Drama Theater. Just now It’s true that I’m reciting the lines, hey, I can’t do it if I don’t hurry up, after all, I have to face the test tomorrow.”
"Huh, it turns out this is really the case. I thought... Haha, it seems I misunderstood. Let me tell you, how could those strange words appear in reality."
Hearing the other party's explanation, the driver who was worried until now finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the spy had a false alarm. He was right, and he smiled on the surface, but in fact the driver had already cursed loudly in his heart.
(Damn it, even if you memorize the script and recite the lines, what the hell kind of scripts are these? How can you read them so well? Is it a horror movie script?)
For fear of scaring the driver, or worrying that the other party would continue to hear things they shouldn't hear, He Fei and He Fei stopped talking during the journey and were both silent. The taxi also gradually moved away from the city and gradually approached under the power of the motor. In the suburbs, finally, after about 10 minutes, with the sound of brakes, the car arrived at the end and stopped directly at the gate of No. 21 High School.
Next, the two discovered something.
In other words, as soon as the taxi stopped, He Fei noticed through the window that there was another car parked nearby. This car was familiar to He Fei. He had even sat in it in person last night. The owner of the car was not someone else, but Liu Jian, captain of the Municipal Criminal Investigation Team!
