Ling Fan was stared at by Master Sudan, as if he was the little vampire himself.
After staring at Ling Fan for a long time, Master Sudan slowly said: "Ling Fan, how much do you know about lowering your head?"
Ling Fan shook his head and said: "Before coming here, I had never heard of the word lowering the head, and I had never watched any movies about it, so I can only say that I have knowledge about lowering the head.
I don’t even know the basics of it.”
"No wonder, if you don't know how to lower your head, then you don't know how to prevent it. Do you know, you have already been lowered..." Master Sudan looked at Ling Fan and said calmly.
As soon as he said these words, Ling Fan felt like his brain was buzzing, and his whole body seemed to fall into a cold cellar. The hairs all over his body stood up one by one, and he felt as if his throat was stuck.
Like a fishbone, he struggled for a long time before he finally managed to utter a relatively complete sentence intermittently: "You... what did you say... you said someone had my head dropped on me?!"
Master Sudan's deep eyes revealed a piercing gaze, as if he could see through all the demonic obstacles in the world, even the heart. He waved towards Ling Fan to signal him to come closer. Although Ling Fan didn't know what was going on, he had no choice but to obey now.
As for Master Sultan, such a prominent person would never lie to himself.
After Ling Fan came to the side, Master Sudan stretched out two dry fingers, and then opened Ling Fan's eyelids up and down, revealing the black and white pupils, but just above the black pupils, that is, the whites of the eyes.
There is a faint red line running through the whites of the eyes. This red line is very light. If you hadn't observed it carefully, you would have thought it was bloodshot caused by excessive worry.
"Master, is there something wrong in my eyes?" Ling Fan suppressed the fear in his heart and asked pretending to be calm.
Master Sudan lowered Ling Fan's eyelids and said to himself solemnly: "Impossible, absolutely impossible. How can there be anyone in this world who knows this kind of head-lowering technique?!"
Master Sultan's words confused Ling Fan and made him even more worried. However, despite his repeated questioning, Master Sultan always said it was nothing and told Ling Fan that he must not tell anyone about this matter, not even those around him.
He had his own way of dealing with the people closest to him. As he spoke, he turned around and took out a bamboo tube from behind. The bamboo tube was very delicate and only as big as a thumb. He gently took off the upper end of the bamboo tube, revealing a
A thin purple needle exudes a strange color.
He gently took off the fine needle and asked Ling Fan to come over. Ling Fan didn't know what the master was going to do, but now he had to obey his orders. His body actually lowered his head. This was Ling Fan.
It was unimaginable. After he came here and saw people around him talking about lowering heads, he knew that lowering heads was a mysterious and terrifying thing. If he was not careful, he might be tricked.
He was relatively cautious in this aspect, but even so, he was still knocked down, which made Ling Fan feel depressed and frightened. It was really hard to prevent him.
There was no pain at all, he just felt dizzy in front of his eyes, and then he became extremely clear. Ling Fan quickly touched his neck. Master Sudan had clearly inserted the purple needle into his neck just now, but he couldn't feel it at all.
"You must not tell anyone about the purple needle, and you must try your best to forget it, understand?" Master Sudan looked at Ling Fan and said in an almost commanding tone.
"That doesn't seem to be easy, but I will try my best to do it. But, Master, what exactly is the lowering of the head in my body? Why don't I know it?" Ling Fan is still worried about the lowering of the head in his body.
asked.
Master Sudan said: "After you spend tonight safely, you will know everything, but now you have to forget everything, including the fact that you know that there is a descending head in your body and the purple needle I put behind your neck.
You have to forget everything."
Ling Fan smiled bitterly and said, "That doesn't seem easy to do. To be honest, my memory is quite good."
"I have a way. Even if I am called the King of Head-Lowering Masters, if I can't handle even this little thing, then I will be too ashamed of this title." Master Sudan showed a rare smile, but it would be better not to smile at all.
, a dry face does not look happy when it smiles.
I saw him take out a small bamboo tube from behind, once again took off the front end of the bamboo tube, picked up the tube and gently knocked it in the palm of his hand, and saw some black powder suddenly appeared in the palm of his hand.
Those black powders are so dazzling and sparkling with crystal clear luster that even the most beautiful black jade gems can hardly capture the slightest bit of luster from this black powder.
"Master Sudan, what are these black powders?" Ling Fan asked.
Master Sudan smiled mysteriously at Ling Fan and said: "These black powders are made from the heads of insects called 'earworms'. Although they are insects, don't underestimate these things. Their value is higher than
Those so-called diamonds and jades are much more valuable than gold. Based on this alone, I can guarantee that at least two large bungalows like the ones you saw before are already in the palm of my hand."
Ling Fan stuck out his tongue. It was not that he had never seen so-called precious and strange things, but just a tiny bit of powder like this could be worth two luxurious villas. This really made Ling Fan's imagination feel
To the limit, to be honest, if he hadn't known in advance that the old man in front of him was the legendary and lofty King of the Head-Lowering Masters, he would have thought that he had met a so-called charlatan.
Master, since these things are so valuable, what are you going to use them for?" Ling Fan forced himself to admit the value of the black powder in front of him, but he was still curious about their uses.
Master Sudan looked at the black powder in his hand with great pity and said: "Earthworms are an extremely precious insect in our country. They only live for three years, and they can only give birth once in three years, and they can only give birth to two larvae at a time.
, and one of the two larvae must become the food of the other, so the earworm can produce a new life every three years..."
Ling Fan suddenly felt like he was back in high school class, because he had the feeling of listening to the biology teacher talking about the history of insects. This feeling made him speechless, but Master Sudan's next words made Ling Fan's whole body tremble.
cold.
"...The earworm also has a unique feature, and it is this feature that doubles its value, and that is its amnesia. Due to the capacity of the brain, the earworm's memory can only be saved for one day, and it can only remember its own actions within one day.
and the places they have been to. On the next day, everything is a new beginning for it, because all the previous memories have been lost, so our Jiangtou masters collected earworms and used them to refine them to make people temporarily lose their ability.
The effect of reducing memory can last for at least half a day on a human body. For people with particularly strong resistance, it is estimated that it can last for several hours." At this point, Master Sudan looked at Ling Fan and said, "Now you always
Is it time to know its purpose?"
Ling Fan nodded and said: "Well, I understand. What if I still don't understand why it is so valuable?"
Master Sudan sighed: "Actually, the value of earworms was not so high before. Although the birth rate of earworms is extremely short, the number of earworms in country A is still considerable. After all, they are insects and can be seen everywhere. But when biologists discovered that earwigs
After developing these special characteristics, it was crazily captured by head-drop masters and used them to refine amnesia-inducing head-drops. We humans have a big weakness, that is, we like to regret and regret what we have done.
However, time cannot be turned back, and regret is useless, so we want to forget those memories, failure in business, marriage breakdown, etc. These are the mistakes that those high-ranking officials are most likely to make, so they are more demanding on regret medicine, so they use a lot of
The number of earworms has been greatly reduced in the end. Now it is very difficult to find another earworm from country a. However, even so, the dignitaries, wealthy businessmen and rich people still maintain a considerable respect for earworms.
interest, so it’s not surprising that its value is so high.”
"Oh, I understand, but if those people only know how to make mistakes without correcting them, I think no matter how large the number of earworms are, they will not be enough for them. It will just erase their own memories for a period of time and make these small insects
It's too cruel to pay the price with your life." Ling Fan looked at the black powder in the hand of the master, and regretted it. How many worms would it take to make such a small amount of powder, and only use the heads of worms to refine it?
life.
Master Sudan looked at Ling Fan with admiration and said with a smile: "So I decided to use these earworms on you, because you can prevent some people from making mistakes again. These things belong to you."
After hearing this, Ling Fan quickly waved his hand and said, "Master, are you kidding me? I can't afford these things. I'm just a student. Selling me isn't even worth this small amount of money."
Master Sudan smiled maliciously at Ling Fan and said, "Who said you have no money? Didn't Prince Totai give you a blank check?!"
"Uh..." Ling Fan suddenly understood a lot, but he also understood a truth: there is no free lunch in this world!
Although Ling Fan was still a little reluctant, how easy would it be for him to get a check that he could fill in any number and cash at any time?! However, compared with life, he had no choice but to give up these things. It seems that after this matter is completed,
, the biggest challenge that I face is not to be demoted, but to the accountability of the entire headquarters members, especially Lao Gu. How can I go to see him? It’s really sad. How could he be demoted?
