"It's Ruoyun."
He Yuanyue is in poor health and had a meeting at SHIELD this morning. Sister Lan was not around to look after her, so she looked very tired at the moment. She was dozing in a wheelchair with only a thin blanket covering her.
"whats the matter?"
"It's a small matter."
Hu Ruoyun felt a little regretful at the moment. She really should have let He Yuanyue rest for a while. Her health was not good to begin with, and she had been worried all night yesterday. Now she was disturbing her with something she didn't know whether it was real or not.
"Go ahead."
He Yuanyue was now fully awake. She lifted the blanket from her body and said, "You are not an ignorant person. Since you are here, it must be something important."
"There is one thing I can't make up my mind about. It's because I don't know much about this field."
"Go ahead."
"There are several edible medicinal herbs, including purple sun root, dream ganoderma, nine-twig juice, and honey grass flower... If we combine these with ordinary dishes and meat and wrap them into buns, can we produce any special effects? Will it have the same effect as mixed poison?"
He Yuanyue laughed: "How come you are researching mixed poisons now?"
She pondered for a moment and said, "All of these herbs you mentioned have the same properties: they strengthen vital energy, nourish star souls, and replenish essence."
"And these herbs, taken alone, have no harm, and only benefits."
He Yuanyue said slowly: "But..."
When Hu Ruoyun heard the word "but", her heart began to tighten.
"If these four herbs are taken in order, with the honey grass flower taken on the first day, the user will go through the circulation of the body's energy, allowing the medicinal properties to enter the meridians, and then take the Jiuquan vine juice, the dream ganoderma grass on the third day, and the purple sun root on the fourth day..."
He Yuanyue's face was solemn: "On the fifth day, I will take the honey grass flower again. The combined effect of the four days of medicine will turn into... an incurable poison!"
Hu Ruoyun's delicate body trembled for a moment, and she asked, "An incurable poison?"
"Well, once the poison is incurable, the person who takes it will have his soul shattered and all three souls and seven spirits will disappear. However, very few people know about this method; and the buying and selling of these medicinal herbs are also clearly prohibited by the state."
"Especially the Dream Ganoderma, which is the hardest to find. It is an extremely rare spiritual material, but its benefits are not that great."
"So, not many people know about this method of harming people."
He Yuanyue asked: "Why, did you find anything?"
Hu Ruoyun swallowed his saliva and said, "Indeed, there is a discovery... I suspect someone wants to use this method to deal with Zuo Xiaoduo..."
"Huh?" He Yuanyue couldn't help but stare: "Zuo Xiaoduo?"
"Yes."
Hu Ruoyun took out the test report and said, "Recently, a girl has been pursuing Zuo Xiaoduo. I feel that her behavior is strange because at the beginning she just had a good impression of him. I could see and feel it, but recently, her behavior has changed from the beginning."
"I bring food to Zuo Xiaoduo every morning... If Zuo Xiaoduo doesn't eat it, it's fine if he takes it back, but the girl always throws away the food she brings, and brings more the next day... I'm surprised by this. Even if someone doesn't want to eat it, they shouldn't throw it away, right? If she's given up, she won't bring more the next day, so I take it for testing..."
Hu Ruoyun explained her analysis in detail, including her analysis of the girl's mind.
"This is the test report from the first day... It shows the ingredients of honey grass flower, the second day's, nine-vine juice, the third day's, dream ganoderma grass, the fourth day's, purple sun root..."
Looking at the four test reports, a sharp light suddenly flashed in He Yuanyue's eyes.
"Zuo Xiaoduo didn't eat? Not once?"
“I haven’t eaten it once.”
Hu Ruoyun said affirmatively.
"That's not right. If you don't take it on the first day, it will be useless even if you take it on the second, third, and fourth days."
He Yuanyue pondered, "If they don't eat it on the first day, they should continue to give them the food mixed with honey grass flowers from the first day. They should never change to food mixed with the second kind of Jiuquan vine juice."
Hu Ruoyun frowned and said nothing.
"Do you know why Zuo Xiaoduo doesn't eat?" He Yuanyue asked.
"I investigated this matter secretly and haven't asked Zuo Xiaoduo yet. I'm also afraid that this is just a misunderstanding..."
"Since Zuo Xiaoduo doesn't eat and is not in danger now... let's observe this matter for a while before making any further decisions."
He Yuanyue reminded: "Ruoyun, this matter may be... more dangerous than you can imagine. So... you must pay attention to your own safety, and if possible, try to delay it."
"Our No. 2 Middle School's top fighters are all gone. If something goes wrong, and it gets extreme, we won't be able to fight back."
He Yuanyue said: "Just remind Zuo Xiaoduo in a subtle way. That child knows the importance of things and is even more sensitive to his own good and bad fortune."
"clear."
Watching Hu Ruoyun leave, He Yuanyue's eyes became deep.
She looked at the tea leaves in the teacup that Hu Ruoyun had just brewed for her, which were rising and falling, and did not move for a long time.
"Meng Tianyue...Meng family, are you so impatient to kill Zuo Xiaoduo? If that's the case, why don't you just send out a master to assassinate him? You always play these little tricks... Do you want to solve the problem quietly?"
"If I didn't know your intentions before, and couldn't see your faces clearly, maybe... you would have kept it from me. But now..."
As soon as this incident came up, He Yuanyue immediately locked on the suspect: the Meng family!
"blue… "
She habitually wanted to call Sister Lan, but then she remembered that Sister Lan was seriously injured and recuperating in SHIELD, so she shut her mouth.
"In any case, this matter cannot be revealed now."
"Once revealed, it will only intensify the conflict and put Zuo Xiaoduo in greater danger."
"The water in Phoenix is really getting muddier..."
"Why are the Bai family and the Meng family hooking up again? The Bai family... has always been a family of poetry and literature, a decent family... Could it be that they were coerced?"
…
Zuo Xiaoduo was sweating profusely in the gravity room. He was filled with wonder at the moment. He didn't know what was going on. He had absorbed a lot of spiritual energy from the moment he arrived at school this morning until now, but until now he hadn't even felt like breaking through.
If it had been yesterday, there would have been at least five or six times of Qi agitation by now.
I can't figure it out.
why is that
If you can't figure it out, don't think about it.
Anyway, this is not a bad thing. It allows me to become stronger and accumulate more foundation. Zuo Xiaoduo once again took out the middle-grade Star Soul Jade and absorbed the energy from it.
It doesn’t matter if you can’t reach the breakthrough point for the time being. Although I don’t know the specific reason, it is certain that your accumulation is not enough. Just keep accumulating!
The true energy in the body was quietly transforming into the fiery power of the Yan Yang Sutra...
at noon.
Zuo Xiaoduo climbed out of the gravity room with the weight on time; after a short rest, he went to the cafeteria to eat.
Zuo Xiaoduo ate very quickly. It took him only five minutes in total to stuff three or four bowls of rice into his stomach and wipe his mouth. He walked out and went to the corner, where he saw Wan Lixiu hiding in the corner and eating by himself.
Wan Lixiu's appetite is now at a terrifying level; you know, as a girl, almost all girls think about how to lose weight and diet to maintain their figure, but Wan Lixiu eats at least sixty or seventy steamed buns in one meal!
So much so that every time Miss Wan had lunch in the cafeteria, she would feel extremely conflicted and ashamed.
But if I don’t eat, I will be hungry and I won’t have the physical strength to maintain my practice. I have no choice but to hide in a corner, holding a bowl of steamed buns and swallowing them silently, like trying to cover up the truth.
Long Yusheng sat behind her, trying to make his not-so-tall body look bigger, blocking the sight of Miss Wan... This would comfort Miss Wan a little: Well, no one can see me, no one can see me...
Zuo Xiaoduo came over with a heroic and confident look, laughing loudly like a bell: "Wanli Xiu, have you finished eating the seventy steamed buns?"
Wan Lixiu's eyes bulged and he looked at him in a daze with a steamed bun in his mouth.
I knew this guy was cheap, but I never thought he was this cheap.
The voice was so loud that many people in the cafeteria looked over.
Zuo Xiaoduo stretched his head and looked, then laughed: "Oh, there are still seven or eight. Keep eating, keep eating. If the money on your meal card is not enough, you can swipe... swipe Long Yusheng's meal card."
Before he could finish his words, Zuo Xiaoduo, who had finished his humiliation, disappeared in a flash.
But Wan Lixiu, who was still in the corner, had a pretty face full of red clouds, and her head was almost stuck in the crack of the wall, and Long Yusheng had an angry look that looked like he wanted to beat someone to death.
"Bitch! What a bitch!"
Long Yusheng muttered to himself.
There was a thud behind him, and Wan Lixiu swallowed the remaining seven or eight steamed buns like Zuo Xiaoduo, his face flushed, "I must beat him to death this afternoon! No one is allowed to stop me, I must beat him to death..."
Long Yusheng was startled: "Xiu, don't be impulsive."
Wan Lixiu yelled madly, then suddenly stood up and walked out to get food in a heroic and confident manner.
"What are you looking at? Have you never seen such a beautiful girl?"
Facing the scrutinizing looks from all around, Miss Wan was no longer shy. She glared back fiercely, with a look of desperation.
His gaze was so fierce that everyone turned their heads.
After being called out by Zuo Xiaoduo, Wan Lixiu completely relaxed and directly handed the basin to the window: "Give me another twenty steamed buns, two plates of mutton, two ox hooves, and half a pound of chili sauce, thank you!"
He stamped his feet as if to vent his anger: "I didn't eat enough the past few days to save face, so I must eat more today! Thirty steamed buns, let's make a hundred!!"
Li Changming, Li Chenglong and Yu Moyan, who were eating, all gave a thumbs up: "Great! Awesome!"
Wan Lixiu walked back with the food in his hand, holding his head high and saying, "What are you looking at? Can you afford to feed me with my appetite?!"
Long Yusheng shouted from behind: "I, I can afford it!"
Another burst of laughter.
All kinds of whistles rose into the sky.
…
Thanks to my brothers and sisters. I finished the update last night, went home, had dinner, watched some TV, went to bed at 9:30, and kept talking until 10:30 this morning.
The new book month is really exhausting. I'll take a break before I start to explode again.
