Chapter 240 What if the legend is true?
“They sent two special troops, and their target was Guo Tianbu.” Lu Xiangyi continued.
"I see Xuan." Xu Qi shook his head, "In the moment of a brief battle with him, I vaguely saw the gentleman's style in him. By the way, what has the gentleman been busy with recently?"
“Retreat in Yuxiao Mountain.”
“Retreat?”
Thousands of miles away on Yuxiao Mountain, Wang An was refining the elixir.
Some of the medicinal materials Lu Xiangyi sent were not suitable for long-term storage. Although for him now, the effect of "Qi Yi Dan" is fading, and it may decline faster as time goes by, but by then So far, it has been quite effective for him.
Now for Wang An, refining "Qi Yi Dan" is already a familiar task. Spring is warm and flowers are blooming, and Yang Qi is rising, which is the perfect time for making elixirs.
This time he refined six qi-enhancing pills at once. After refining it, he took five pills at the same time, leaving one for testing.
After swallowing the elixir, he immediately exercised his power, and the clothes on his body bulged automatically without any wind. The effectiveness of the elixir is absorbed faster than before.
In fact, since he cultivated Zhenqi, Wang An can still feel that his body is still "getting stronger".
It is true that the true qi is the energy he refined. As it circulates in his body, the true qi is actually constantly stimulating the organs, tissues and cells in his body.
The two meridians of Ren and Du, the three yin and three yang are all the circulation of the small Zhoutian. The eight extraordinary meridians and the twelve main meridians circulate on one side. This is the cycle of the Great Zhoutian.
Each side of the Qi circulation increases by one point, and so on.
Wang An sat quietly in the cave, regardless of the sun rising or setting outside, or the alternation of day and night, constantly stimulating the true energy, and kept moving with the method of Yi Jin Jing.
The true energy is like water, and at this time it has a vague and endless meaning.
After he absorbed and refined all the power of these elixirs and turned them into his own true energy, he went down the mountain.
In the capital, Xu Qi, who had returned from the land of Western Qiang, had been interviewed three times by the headquarters and underwent a comprehensive physical examination.
It can be seen that the headquarters attaches great importance to this place. They will definitely not give up and will send people in again. As for what will happen after entering, that is none of his business.
“Don’t get emotional, Lao Du has no other intentions.”
In response to this incident, his old boss also gave a special explanation to comfort this old subordinate. At the same time, a special meeting on "Immortal Burial Valley" is being held secretly.
“What’s going on with Xu Qi’s hallucinations and Guo Tianbu’s changes?”
"The result of our analysis is that the magnetic field deep in the valley is abnormally disordered. Such a disordered magnetic field will comprehensively affect a person's body system, especially the brain. The human brain also has a brain magnetic field. When the external magnetic field is strong, Under interference, the human brain's magnetic field will be seriously affected or even directly destroyed, thereby affecting a series of activities of the human body.
All audio-visual sensory nerve signals in the human body are eventually transmitted to the brain, where they are summarized. In the valley, these signal transmissions are strongly interfered with.
For example, if a person clearly sees a sheep in such an environment, due to the existence of interference, what is reflected in his brain may be a pig or a werewolf. "
“Why did Guo Tianbu become like that?”
"Well, because we haven't seen them in person, we can't make an effective analysis of his situation. Our analysis is that the strong magnetic field interference affects not only the brain, but all aspects of the body, penetrating into every cell. To put it simply, he The body has mutated under the strong magnetic field environment."
“Mutation, is there any way to isolate this magnetic field?”
“Making special protective equipment, such as using graphene or special superconductors, can theoretically isolate this strong magnetic field interference.”
…
Thousands of miles away in the land of Xiqiang, two special teams are performing secret missions in the jungle. They are tracking Guo Tianbu.
The order given to them was to capture him alive as much as possible. You must know that Guo Tianbu was the ace in their team in the past. They all knew the opponent's methods. It was not that difficult to capture such a person alive.
The person walking at the front made a gesture, and the team members behind him stopped immediately.
There was a dead deer in the jungle, its belly had been cut open, and there was a **** handprint on the tree trunk nearby.
This is not the first time they have encountered such a situation.
From Immortal Burial Valley to here, Guo Tianbu ran away and killed all the way. He was eating raw meat and blood. What he was eating now was animals. If he met people, he would probably eat them.
“It didn’t take long for the deer to die, we are getting closer to him!”
Seeing that it was getting dark, they did not stop to rest, but continued on their way and continued tracking.
In the mountain forest, a man was squatting on a rock. The camouflage uniform on his body was stained with blood. His whole body was blood red and turned into a **** suit. There were animal blood and human blood on it.
He looked down at his hands, which were stained red with blood.
“Have I become a monster?”
There was rustling, footsteps coming from the distant mountain forest. He turned around and saw that the sound was still some distance away from here.
“Captain, I found him.” In the forest, a person used a telescope to see Guo Tianbu squatting on a rock.
"Prepare high-dose anesthetic bombs." The captain gave the order directly.
Just when they were about to shoot, Guo Tianbu, who was crouching on the rock, suddenly disappeared.
“Gone?”
"Chasing, be careful. According to the feedback from Xu Qi and others, Tianbu's ability is more powerful than before when he is out of control."
They immediately gave chase. Facing their once most powerful partner, they felt unsure.
"Mutsu?!" As they were walking in the jungle, a sudden voice made them stop immediately, and they formed a battle formation in a very short time.
“Tianbu, are you awake?” the man leading the team asked in surprise.
“Maybe it’s just temporary.” Guo Tianbu hid in the dark, his voice a little hoarse.
“Come back to the capital with us?”
"Being in the capital, it's better not to go back for the time being. I don't know when I will lose control again."
“What happened in the valley?”
“At the end of the valley I saw a palace.”
“What, the palace?!” The entire team was stunned after hearing the news.
“Are you in?”
“It seems like I went in, but it seems like I didn’t go in. The memory of that period is confusing.” Guo Tianbu said.
“What else can you remember?”
“I need to think about it.” Guo Tianbu sighed longly, then made a painful sound, and he covered his head.
“Damn it! Leave now, I’m going to lose control.”
After hearing this, Mutsu, who was leading the team, immediately made a gesture and asked his team members to retreat.
After they evacuated for a certain distance, a person controlled a drone and flew into the sky. Then the drone quickly flew into the sky. The pictures returned from it surprised them.
I saw Guo Tianbu venting like crazy in the woods. He punched a tree. The big tree as thick as a bowl was broken by his punch, and the hard rock was broken by his punch. Holes were made one after another, and his body seemed to be made of steel.
“Then what do we do next?”
“Waiting.”
“Wait?”
“Yes, wait, observe, and record down when Guo Tianbusi is awake and when he is crazy. We can try to continue to contact him when he is awake,” Mutsu said.
“Do you think he has the ability to fight Wang An now?” a team member asked.
“Is Wang An?”
At the mention of this name, everyone fell silent. They have never met that person, but they know that he is their biggest opponent. He was before, not now, and will probably be in the future.
During this period, they have been conducting secret training. All targeted training has an imaginary enemy, which is Wang An. But so far they still have no confidence that they can defeat Wang An, not at all.
"Maybe." Mutsu said after a moment of silence. He said this, but in his heart he felt that Guo Tianbu might be worse than Wang An now.
Their report quickly spread to the capital.
“Sometimes you’re awake and sometimes you’re crazy?”
"This is not the key. The key question is what happened to the palace in the valley he mentioned. How could there be a palace in a place where Guo Tianbu's body could not maintain his sanity? Who built it?"
“Could it be that his body was hallucinating and seeing something wrong?”
“We’ll know if someone from the palace sends someone in to take a look. Haven’t the Scientific Research Bureau already produced samples of the protective clothing that uses new materials to prevent magnetic field interference? Just send someone in to take a look and we’ll know.”
“Yes, send people directly in to take a look, and at the same time establish a secret base outside the valley to prevent other people from entering.”
"agree."
"agree."
In a mountain village thousands of miles away, Li Xinzhu looked at the elixir in Wang An's hand.
“Yi Qi Dan?”
“Yes, eating it will help increase your vitality.” Wang An said with a smile.
“Then will I get angry after eating it?”
“If you eat it whole, I estimate that there is a 99.9% chance that you will die directly.” Wang An said bluntly.
"Holy shit, this is not an elixir, isn't it poison?" Li Xinzhu subconsciously took a half step back after hearing this, "Then what are you showing me?"
"You can take a little and see how it works. It's just a small amount. It shouldn't be life-threatening." Wang An said matter-of-factly.
“So are you planning to test the medicine on me?”
“Forget it if you don’t want to.”
"Wait a minute, I'm willing." Li Xinzhu said.
“Think about it.”
“No problem, with you here, what should I be afraid of?”
Wang An used a knife made of jade to cut off a small amount, then dissolved it in water and let Li Xinzhu drink it. Then I quietly observed his reaction from the sidelines.
“Just say what you feel.”
“Well, I feel weird. My stomach is hot and bloated.” Li Xinzhu said.
After about ten minutes, his face became a little ugly.
"What's wrong?"
“Hiss, my stomach hurts a little, and it feels like there is a fire burning inside.”
“Is this just such a reaction?” After hearing this, Wang An hurriedly used Chinese massage to help him straighten his meridians.
Li Xinzhu spent the next day in an indescribable feeling of pain. That night he began to suffer from diarrhea and went to the toilet six times in one night.
“I’m going to tell you what kind of medicine you’re using, and I’m going to kill you.” The next day, Li Xinzhu said weakly.
“It seems like I haven’t developed my true qi yet, so I really can’t take this qi-enhancing pill.”
In the capital city thousands of miles away.
“It’s really not easy to meet you.” Lu Xiangyi said with a smile.
"Special case"
“I have nothing to do, so I just came over to chat with you.”
The two of them talked about the Immortal Burial Valley again.
“So, the reason why you went there was to take a gamble?” Lu Xiangyi looked at Xu Qi sitting opposite him in surprise.
"There is a strange book called "Qingshan Jing", have you heard of it?"
“I’ve heard of this name. Any secrets?”
"Yes and no, the text in this scripture is obscure and difficult to understand. It was obtained from Cui Daozhang, who was skilled in swordsmanship. Since obtaining the scripture, the people in the bureau have sent people to study it for a period of time, but no one has studied it. Come out and find out what it is talking about." Xu Qi lit a cigarette.
"A friend of mine was one of the people who participated in the study of this scripture. He is a genius in ancient Chinese and history. He once told me privately that he might decipher part of it. That part mentioned a place, The location is very close to Immortal Burial Valley.”
"Oh?" Lu Xiangyi was slightly startled after hearing this, "There is also this matter. Does anyone in the Special Affairs Bureau know about it?"
“It’s hard to say. My friend said that he once told his teacher and the two of them discussed the matter.”
“His mentor?”
“Professor Li Xiaonian Li passed away a few years ago.” Xu Qi said.
“So you went? They didn’t send you there, but you asked to go?”
“I went to see my old boss.” Xu Qi took a puff of cigarette.
“What is written in that passage?”
"There are immortals living in the valley, who live for hundreds of years, and have wonderful methods that can make the dead alive." Xu Qi said word by word. Lu Xiangyi was stunned after hearing this and didn't speak for a long time.
“Immortal? Lives for hundreds of years? It’s just a legend! Did you go there for Lao Lei?”
“Although it’s just a legend, what if it really exists?” Xu Qi said.
“Tsk, tsk, if he has a friend like you, he can brag to others for a lifetime!” Lu Xiangyi praised.
“Without me, he might not be what he is now.”
“Perhaps you can ask sir.”
“I asked him once.”
“Then ask a few more times, not to mention things are different now, what if we succeed.” Lu Xiangyi said with a smile.
