Next, we stood on the dock with Tian Sihan for a while, and he asked Mai Xiaorou and I to drive his car and leave first. He wanted to stay here and wait for his people to come here to handle the next thing.
I asked him where to leave the car for him when we arrived in the city.
Tian Sihan said: "Put it anywhere and remember to send me the address. I will find someone to drive it back."
Mai Xiaorou and I booked a flight ticket on our mobile phone, and then drove directly to the airport. We still have to continue to take on the remaining thirty-three cases, and Xu Xuan will not arrange the next cases for us.
We must go back to that small county in northern China to find Li Guidao.
On the way to the airport, Mai Xiaorou said to me: "Chen Yu, you don't have to worry too much about the poison in your body. Since the poison controller who died on the dock has something to do with the Tang family, let's go back this time."
North China is operating close to the Tang family, so it may be easier to find clues."
I nodded.
Mai Xiaorou continued: "In addition, you cannot give up communicating with the Gu in your body. Although your chance of controlling it is very low, it does not mean that it is impossible. We must be prepared for both."
Mai Xiaorou took the initiative to comfort me. It seemed that Grandpa Mai's incident did not have such a great impact on her. Although she could not completely let go, she could at least control her emotions.
When we arrived at the airport, we parked the car and called Tian Sihan to tell him where the car was parked and then asked him how the situation was being handled there.
Tian Sihan said: "The matter has basically been handed over to the East China Branch. My task is over here and I am rushing back to make a report."
Next, Tian Sihan asked about our plans again. I told him the situation and then hung up the phone after chatting for a while.
We stayed at the airport for more than an hour and started boarding the plane.
While waiting for the plane to take off, I didn't know why, but I started to have a stomachache. It felt like something was tearing at my stomach, which made me very uncomfortable.
I held my stomach and crawled down, and Mai Xiaorou asked me what was wrong.
I whispered: "Maybe it's the poison in my stomach that's causing trouble..."
Mai Xiaorou looked worried, but she was helpless, so she asked me if I wanted to inform the flight attendant and then return to the flight.
I shook my head and said, "I can still bear it. Let's go to the provincial capital first."
"Hiss..."
My stomach hurt more and more, and I started to make gasping sounds. After a while, a flight attendant came over. She asked me in a very gentle voice what was going on and if I needed help.
I said, "It's okay, I just caught a cold. I'll be fine in a while."
The stewardess asked me again if I would like a glass of hot water.
I nodded and said yes.
After a while, the flight attendant brought a cup of hot water. I smiled at her and said "thank you", and she said to me: "You're welcome!"
Then she smiled at me, and I have to say that her smile was really charming.
After drinking a cup of hot water, the pain in my stomach really eased a lot. Seeing that nothing was wrong with me, the flight attendant stopped staying here.
Mai Xiaorou asked if everything was really okay or if she was just holding back.
I said, "It still hurts, but now I can bear it. I'll try to communicate with the Gu using my mind. This first step is too difficult and I probably won't succeed. But I can't do nothing."
Mai Xiaorou nodded, and I began to adjust my breathing on the plane, silently reciting the mantras Tian Shiqian taught me.
After reciting it more than ten times, I don’t know whether it was my mantra that worked or whether the poison went away on its own. The pain in my stomach completely disappeared.
When I was about to get off the plane, the stewardess came to me again and asked me if I could help arrange a doctor at the airport. I quickly shook my head and said, "No need really, I'm completely fine."
She also smiled at me, her smile was somewhat meaningful, and then she said: "I wish you a pleasant journey."
When she said this, I always felt weird. She seemed to be hinting at something. This stewardess seemed a little weird!
After getting off the plane, we took a taxi back to Cuidi Chunxiao. We will rest here for a day and wait for tomorrow before going to the small county town.
In the evening, my cell phone suddenly rang. When I saw it was the school counselor, I knew it must be because I had been absent from school continuously recently.
After I answered the phone, the instructor asked me what was going on and if I didn't want to study anymore. If I didn't want to study, I had to go through the withdrawal procedures.
The conductor was very angry and said very harsh things.
I first apologized, and then said: "I have something urgent at home recently. When I am done with this period of time, I will go to school to apply for withdrawal."
I really don’t plan to continue reading, because my life trajectory has deviated and I can never get it back.
Instructor, if you asked me to give a specific time, I said one month later and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, I was still a little reluctant to let go. It took a lot of effort to get into the Provincial Science and Technology Department, and I still have many friends there...
The more I think about it, the more pity I feel.
Early the next morning, Mai Xiaorou and I took a taxi to the small county town. When we went there this time, Li Guidao had already returned to the wreath shop, but Li Dihuang was not there, and there were also those who had stayed at the wreath shop.
Ning Xi is also gone.
After seeing us, Li Guidao smiled and said, "I heard that you went south to take on a case, or did you do it with my junior brother Tian?"
Mai Xiaorou and I nodded.
Li Guidao said: "Is this an eye-opener?"
Mai Xiaorou and I nodded again. This time we worked on the case with Tian Sihan. It was indeed an eye-opener for us and we benefited a lot from it.
The only thing that makes me depressed is that the soul-eating Gu in my body has turned into a more powerful Gu Immortal Egg, a kind of Gu that no one can tell clearly what it is yet.
After chatting with Li Guidao for a while, I asked Li Guidao what the fourth case we were going to do next was.
Li Guidao looked at me and smiled mysteriously and said, "This case has something to do with you. Are you going to a place you are very familiar with?"
I was confused for a moment and didn't realize what was going on, so I asked, "Are you going to our village?"
Li Guidao shook his head and said, "No, it's the Provincial Polytechnic University. Where you go to school, there's a case in your school. You need to deal with it."
our school?
The guidance counselor just called me yesterday, and today we received a case from the school. What a coincidence. It seems that I don’t have to wait a month to return to school.
I asked Li Guidao what happened at our school.
Li Guidao said: "Your case this time is called 'Midnight Death Song'. In the past week, two girls in your school have committed suicide by jumping off the building in the middle of the night, and they would sing on the roof before they died.
A song without lyrics."
A song without lyrics!?
Li Guidao said: "Yes, in fact, it cannot be said that there are no lyrics. There is only one word 'ah' in the lyrics. The whole singing process lasts about two minutes. The tune is very low, as if a ghost is crying in the middle of the night. After listening to it,
It makes people feel inexplicable chest tightness. Someone with good intentions has recorded the entire song and put it online. If you are interested, you can check it online and save the song of a ghost who jumped off a building, and then you can listen to that song.
.”
When Li Guidao said this, Mai Xiaorou and I took out our mobile phones and started searching for the recording.
Sure enough, we found it. After clicking on it, a low and somewhat sharp female voice pierced the surrounding air: "Ah..."
As soon as that sound came out, I immediately got goosebumps on my body.
The voice is sometimes soothing, sometimes urgent, sometimes sad, sometimes angry. Listening to it makes people unable to help but breathe along with the rhythm of the tune.
After listening, Mai Xiaorou and I couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Li Guidao smiled and said: "Isn't it very magical?"
Mai Xiaorou and I nodded at the same time.
Li Guidao picked up his cell phone and sent me two messages. One message was a photo, and the other was a text message containing the names of two women and one man.
The boys are the ones who put their voices online, and the two girls are the ones who got into trouble at school.
There will be no more clues and information next.
Li Guidao said: "There is only so much information I can give you. You can investigate it yourself. This case is currently classified as an intermediate case. It shouldn't be too difficult for you."
As he said this, Li Guidao looked at Mai Xiaorou.
After arranging the case, Li Guidao said to me again: "Chen Yu, after the case is completed, you don't have to come back to me to hand over the case. You can just go to Tangfu Teahouse in the provincial capital to hand over the case. I'm going out."
After a while, when I come back, I will take the initiative to contact you."
I quickly asked: "Then how will I arrange my next case?"
Li Guidao said: "Just wait for the notification. I have a suitable case here and will notify you as soon as possible. Of course, if you can't sit still, you can take on low-level cases to practice your skills. But those cases
It cannot be counted among your thirty-six cases."
I could only nod.
But then I thought again, my soul-eating Gu has disappeared, and now there is a more powerful Gu in my body. Can Xu Xuan find someone to pull it out for me? If not, then what else am I going to do with these thirty-six cases?
?
Thinking of this, I asked Li Guidao for confirmation.
Li Guidao smiled and said: "I don't know if your poison can be cured, but if you are still alive after completing these thirty-six cases, I, Master Xu, will accept you as my disciple. You will have an expert like him to guide you."
, do you know how smooth your path will be? I, Uncle Xu, am such a smart person, maybe he really has a way to help you control the poison in your body, so I advise you to continue taking these thirty-six cases.
If you go down well, it will save you a lot of detours."
Indeed, the cases they arranged for me allowed me to learn a lot.
At this time, Li Guidao said again: "By the way, I heard from Junior Brother Tian that you seem to be very interested in the title of the Ten Supernatural Heroes. Let me remind you that although the title will be re-selected three years ago,
Finally, not everyone can participate in the selection. You need to advance to the Hundred Stars List, and the selection of the Hundred Stars List is held in April every year. You must enter the Hundred Stars List at least once in the past three years, otherwise you will have no chance to participate.
Competing for the title of the Ten Supernatural Heroes."
Hundred-star list!? What is this? (To be continued)
