"How could such...such a disgusting thing appear in the laboratory?" Meng Yao's face turned a little pale. She almost put her finger on it just now, but luckily she pulled it back quickly.
Likewise, Chen Qingzhi was also thankful in her heart that she reacted quickly and did not touch the corpse powder with her hands. Just thinking about it gave her whole body goosebumps.
"There is a reason why corpse powder appears here."
Qin Yu's fingers were stained with a trace of corpse powder, and the expression on his face remained unchanged, as if it was ordinary powder. His other hand reached into his pocket and took out a lighter. After lighting it, the flame moved to the powder on his fingers.
With a "boom", a strange blue flame emerged from Qin Yu's fingers, and it never went out. After a while, Qin Yu shook his fingers, and the blue flame was like an elf, swaying under Qin Yu's fingers.
The tip dances.
"Go ahead."
Then, Qin Yu waved his finger, and the dancing blue flames were like ghosts, wandering around the entire laboratory, leaving Meng Yao and Chen Qingzhi stunned.
"Have you felt that the temperature around you has dropped?" Qin Yu's voice slowly sounded in the ears of the two women.
After Qin Yu's reminder, Meng Yao and Chen Qingzhi realized that the temperature in the laboratory had dropped, and their skins already had a hint of chill. But if it weren't for Qin Yu's reminder, the two women would not have been there at all.
will notice.
"The burning of corpse powder will absorb a lot of heat from the surrounding space, causing the temperature to drop. Moreover, most people will not notice it. Some people may even not notice it even if their whole body has goosebumps due to the cold. However, this is not corpse powder yet.
The most powerful thing, the most powerful thing about corpse powder, is that it can make people hallucinate, and a master who uses corpse powder can control this hallucination. In other words, at this moment, if I am a master who uses corpse powder, I can control it.
Your senses can see whatever they want you to see." Qin Yu waved his hand, and the blue flame flew back to his fingertips again, beating there.
"Isn't that just like hypnosis?" Meng Yao summarized.
"It's almost the same, but hypnosis requires the cooperation of the person involved, and this corpse powder is completely silent." Qin Yu nodded and replied.
"But what do these people want to do with corpse powder?" Chen Qingzhi asked in confusion.
Qin Yu glanced at Chen Qing and said with a smile: "Of course they wanted to control your mentor and get the information they wanted from your mentor, but unfortunately, they failed."
"How do you know they failed?" Chen Qingzhi asked.
"It's very simple. If it succeeds, your mentor will not be taken away. Either those people will get what they want and leave, or they will kill people and silence them. After getting what they want, they will kill your mentor.
But now the situation is that your mentor has been taken away by them, which means that in the laboratory, these people did not get what they wanted, or the information."
Qin Yu's analysis left Chen Qingzhi unable to find anything to refute, and in the end she had to admit that everything Qin Yu said was correct.
"But what do they want from the mentor? No, the mentor is still in danger. We must rescue the mentor." Chen Qingzhi's face became anxious again, "Mr. Qin, we should call the police. These people take the mentor away.
There will definitely be a car. Let the police check the school's surveillance system and they will be found."
"No." Qin Yu shook his head, "It's not that I don't want you to call the police. The police can't handle this matter. If you believe me, just leave this matter to me. I will find a way to rescue your mentor, but I need
Your cooperation."
Chen Qingzhi stared at Qin Yu. After a while, he finally compromised and nodded in agreement, "Okay, I can cooperate with you."
"First of all, you have to tell me what your mentor is researching and his progress. The more detailed the better." Qin Yu's expression became serious and he asked Chen Qingzhi.
"This..." Chen Qingzhi had a look of embarrassment on his face, "Actually, I don't know much. Most of the time I just help my mentor. But once I heard my mentor accidentally say that he cracked the code
A secret letter from ancient times, and the contents of this secret letter involve the secret of "becoming an immortal"."
"Become an immortal?" Qin Yu's eyes flashed with light, he frowned, and vaguely caught something in his mind.
"Don't you think it's ridiculous? When I first heard what my mentor said, I also thought it was ridiculous. How could there be immortals in this world? Even if there were, they were the same immortals from the past. But my mentor told me that people can also
Become an immortal."
"The instructor looked at me as if I didn't believe it, but didn't say much. He just told me that what he is studying now is related to becoming an immortal. Maybe it is not the kind of "immortal" we understand. To be more precise, it is having the same characteristics as the legendary gods.
The same ability can move the wind and rain and move mountains and seas."
A bitter smile appeared on Chen Qingzhi's face, as if he was lost in memories, "Even though the instructor said this, I still don't believe it in my heart, because how can a person have such a great ability? This is completely subversive of science. But then, the instructor said
He began to lead me to study the Zhouyi culture, and during this process, my views slowly changed."
According to what Chen Qingzhi said, after studying the Book of Changes, her entire worldview has undergone major changes. Some things that she thought were simply illusory and unscientific in the past actually exist, and after the instructor revealed some of the Zhouyi
After improving his abilities, Chen Qingzhi finally believed that there was indeed a kind of person in this world who could do things that ordinary people couldn't do by relying on some special means.
"After that, I started to study with my mentor. However, the mentor often disappeared for ten days and a half, and every time he reappeared, he either made new discoveries or was dejected, and the mentor
He didn’t even tell me where he went.”
"What happened to Mr. Wolong who was mentioned earlier?" Qin Yu frowned. Chen Qingzhi felt that what he said was in vain and there were no clues.
"Speaking of Zhuge Liang, it's because all of this was caused by Zhuge Liang's secret letter. The secret of becoming an immortal was also discovered in Zhuge Liang's secret letter."
"Where is that secret letter now?" Qin Yu quickly asked.
"I don't know this, and I haven't read the contents of the secret letter. Only my mentor has read it, and I only listened to his dictation." Chen Qingzhi shook her head and said.
"If that's the case..." Qin Yu pondered for a while and then said, "I'll make a call first."
Walking aside, Qin Yu dialed a number, and after the call was connected, he said: "Director Qiu, happy new year, haha, congratulations, um, yes, there is something I want to trouble you with. I am now
In the capital..."
"Director Qiu is quite well informed. He actually knows about his upcoming engagement. The intelligence work of these special departments is really terrifying." Qin Yu muttered after hanging up the phone.
Ordinary police officers will definitely not be able to handle this matter. Qin Yu can be sure that the person who attacked Chen Qingzhi's mentor is definitely someone from the metaphysics world, and can only be handled by people from special departments like Qiu Yun.
"Miss Chen, have you seen this key?" Qin Yu took out the key to the safe he picked up from under the peach tree from his pocket and asked Chen Qingzhi.
"Isn't this the key that belongs to the mentor? Yes, it belongs to the mentor, and the key never leaves the mentor. I remember one time when the mentor was temporarily pulled by the school leaders to attend a meeting. After changing his clothes,
In the middle of the meeting, I hurried back just to get the key. For this, I was criticized by the school leaders, and even the experimental funds were deducted." Chen Qingzhi took the key from Qin Yu's hand.
After looking at the key for a while, he replied in the affirmative.
After listening to Chen Qingzhi's words, Qin Yu and Meng Yao looked at each other, with thoughtful looks in their eyes. According to Chen Qingzhi, her mentor was very concerned about this key and even paid no attention to it.
If you lose your research funding and offend the school leaders, how can you leave this key under the peach tree?
"Unless he did it on purpose." Meng Yao suddenly said something, but Chen Qingzhi heard it in confusion, "What's on purpose?"
"I picked up this key under the peach tree downstairs. It was visually estimated that it fell from the second floor. Since you said that your instructor is very precious to this key, under normal circumstances, it is impossible for this key to fall into the peach tree.
Unless your instructor intends to do so, or the circumstances at the time force him to do so."
Qin Yu's eyes flashed, he took Meng Yao's words and explained to Chen Qingzhi, and in Qin Yu's heart, he even had a complete speculation.
When Chen Qingzhi's mentor faced that group of mysterious people, he obviously didn't resist, or he knew that resisting was useless, and chose to go with the other party. However, Chen Qingzhi's mentor took advantage of the group of people not paying attention.
At that time, I secretly threw the key down from the second floor.
"But why did Chen Qingzhi's mentor do this?"
Almost at the same time, Meng Yao and Chen Qingzhi said, "Did those people come just for this key?"
"I think so too. To be precise, I came here for the contents of the safe that the key can open. I guess Ms. Chen's mentor also knew the other party's purpose, so he threw away the key. It seems that we
You have to find the safe before the other party finds it. As long as the other party doesn't find the safe and doesn't get the contents, then Miss Chen's mentor will be safe." Qin Yu agreed.
"Then where is this safe?" Meng Yao asked doubtfully.
"Miss Chen, have you ever seen a safe after following your mentor for so long?" Qin Yu asked Chen Qingzhi.
"No, I have never seen the instructor use this key to open a safe in school." Chen Qingzhi shook her head and replied. (To be continued)
