Unparalleled Double Harmony

Chapter 55 Bliss Gu

On August [-]th, the Hero Banquet, the heroes will gather again at the Gate of Justice.

The banquet hall inside the Justice Gate is very grand, even more spacious and luxurious than many restaurants that are open for business.

Even if the number of martial arts practitioners who came to the meeting today is close to two hundred, they can fully welcome them.

In recent years, under Shen Youran's operation, the Gate of Justice has been booming; they can get a share of the big and small business in Luoyang, and even some of the buying and selling of officials, so the money is also the same. It flowed into Shen Youran's pocket like running water.

It can be said that after this conference, people have more clearly understood the financial resources, manpower, and leadership of Justice Gate.

Considering that Shen Youran is only in his early thirties this year, it is indeed reasonable for Huang Donglai to predict that he will be one of the six most powerful people in Jianghu in the next 20 years.

However, Shen Youran herself...actually doesn't really care about that.

In his eyes, the Gate of Justice is not important.

He does have ambitions, and wants to lead a sect to rise up and dominate the world...but that sect is not the Justice Gate, but the Tianqi Gang.

Some people may ask, he is already a head-level figure, as long as he can succeed, what difference does the sect he leads be called the Justice Gate or the Tianqi Gang?

In fact... there is no difference, at least in the eyes of others.

But in Shen Youran's view, there is a big difference.

He has his obsessions and ideas, no matter what other people think of his obsessions as paranoia, childishness, or stupidity...as long as he makes himself think that it is necessary and correct, he will not feel that there is anything wrong with doing so question.

Of course, he can have his insistence, but he also has to pay for this choice.

…………

At three o'clock in the unitary hour, the hero banquet is held.

At this time, it has been three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, and the heroes are in high spirits.

"Master, we have counted three times, everyone is here, and we are all ready." At this moment, a disciple of the Justice Sect came to Shen Youran, leaned over and whispered something.

"Okay, you go down." After hearing this, Shen Youran put down the wine glass and ordered softly.

After the disciple got the order, he left quickly.

"Come here, Master Shen, I offer you a toast! Hahaha..." At this moment, a senior from another sect came over from another table to toast Shen Youran.

But Shen Youran didn't seem to see the other party, she stood up from her seat expressionlessly, turned around and left, heading straight for a high platform at the northernmost part of the banquet hall.

"Eh? Shen..." The one who came to toast passed him by, and was also stunned for a while, but before he could say anything, Shen Youran had already walked away.

Soon, Shen Youran came to the platform that was a little higher than the surrounding ones, secretly channeled her inner strength, and said: "Everyone, please be quiet."

This sound, to use a concept familiar to modern people, is as loud as shouting through a loudspeaker.

When everyone present heard this sentence, they knew that Master Shen had something serious to announce, so they immediately fell silent, and the sound of cups, plates and chopsticks stopped abruptly.

"Shen, there are a few important things to announce." The tone of Shen Youran's words was wrong...

His tone, not only did not have the slightest respect or politeness, but also had a hint of command.

It's just that at this moment, not many people noticed this difference, because everyone took it for granted that Shen Youran was going on stage to present prizes to the top three of the Young Heroes.

"First, from today onwards, Luoyang Zhengyimen will be disbanded, and all gang members, businesses, and assets of Zhengyimen... will be taken over by Tianqi Gang."

As a result, Shen Youran's next words made everyone present gasp in shock. Many people were already a little drunk, and they even sobered up after hearing these words.

"Secondly, I, Shen Youran, from today onwards, I am no longer the sect leader of the Justice Gate, but the leader of the Tianqi Gang." Shen Youran didn't care about their reactions, and just continued talking on her own.

At this moment, a guy who didn't know the fun came up and wanted to be a peacemaker with a smile on his face: "Oh, Master Shen, even if you're drunk and joking, you're over it, look at everyone I was frightened by you... If it's a joke, I think it's just..."

"Do I look like I'm joking?" Shen Youran interrupted the man's words with a cold expression, and asked back.

Although the man is a martial arts senior in terms of qualifications, he is nothing more than a second-rate figure, otherwise he would not be so blind; at this moment, he felt his scalp numb and his legs weak when he was stared at by Shen Youran, and he instinctively backed away After a few steps, I stopped making a sound.

"Third..." Seeing that no one interrupted, Shen Youran went on to say, "Shen You hope that all of you here... will stay in our Tianqi Gang for a few days, and pass on the martial arts in each sect, Secrets, including the shady secrets of your seniors and colleagues, tell them all in detail, and wait for my subordinates to record all these... before leaving."

As soon as the third sentence came out, the audience was blown up.

Leaving aside those younger generations, you must know that there are at least fifty or so big bosses at the deputy head level, and all of them have higher qualifications and seniority than Shen Youran, and their martial arts are not bad... Shen Youran's This kind of request, even if an ordinary disciple listened to it, he would have to slap the table and turn his face, not to mention these big people.

"Bah!" Unsurprisingly, Feng Shunfeng was the first to stand up, "Your surname is Shen, have you eaten something unclean and lost your mind? How dare you say that today, Are you afraid you are courting death?"

The people at Feng Shunfeng's table, except him, Feng Shunshui, and their leader's nephew Di Gui, were all from the Waterway sect who had a good relationship with their Cao Gang. , They all stood up one after another, and each of them put their hands on the weapons.

"Heh..." Shen Youran looked at the other party, as if watching a joke, "Master Feng Er, no matter how useful the things in your head are, you won't be so impatient to say such nasty things to me. He paused, and looked at the crowd again, "I know that most of you here are thinking similarly to Feng Er. If I don't explain what I just said, you won't let me go lightly...Hmph, don't worry." Well, since Shen dares to say this, he has something to rely on."

When he said this, he raised his hand and patted it twice.

As soon as the applause fell, a row of exits on the south side of the banquet hall were all closed from the outside in two seconds.

You don't need to think about it to know that at this moment, the door of the banquet hall has been sealed by the Gate of Justice... Oh no, it should be said that it was sealed by the disciples of the Tianqi Gang.

This is not over yet, after the row of front doors closed, two people walked out from the side door leading to the back kitchen, and on their shoulders... a third person was carried.

Their movements were quick and their goals were clear. They arrived at Shen Youran's side in three steps at a time, and then put the person they were carrying on a chair with a backrest.

Everyone in the audience took a closer look, and found that the person being carried up was none other than Bai Ruhong, the well-known "Silver Way" in the rivers and lakes.

At this moment, Bai Ruhong's face was ashes, and his whole body was tied up with ropes; although his eyes were still open and he was breathing, the appearance of slumping on the chair motionless was unusual.

Everyone knows that for a master like Daoist Bai, as long as he uses his internal strength outward, he can break the iron chain, let alone a mere rope?There must be a reason for him to be like this now.

And Shen Youran quickly answered their doubts: "Two days ago, Daoist Bai, like everyone present, drank a cup of tea that I respect..."

He had only spoken half a sentence, and more than half of the people below had changed their expressions, especially those from the Cao Gang, their faces were turning blue.

They are all walking on the road of the rivers and lakes, who can not understand what he means?But they also have doubts at the same time, because many of the heroes here are also capable of poisoning, but the day before yesterday, none of them realized that they were drugged...Of course, before that, the majestic sect master of the Justice Gate, the young hero It is unimaginable that the organizer of the meeting would poison the tea of ​​Qunhao who came to the meeting, so it is really not easy to guard against.

"Heh..." Shen Youran naturally saw through people's thoughts, he continued with a smile, "You don't have to guess, you can't know what the 'thing' added to the tea is, and I won't tell you."

Obviously, Lord Shen is different from the villains who have successfully poisoned people in various martial arts TV dramas. He didn't confidently tell the poisoned people the name of the poison he poisoned.

So here it is implied in the book that the thing he added is called "Bliss Gu", which is a mysterious poison originating from Miaojiang.

Strictly speaking, this thing is not a plant or a chemical product, but a very small creature, which is about the size of tea foam to the naked eye.

After Bliss Gu enters the human body, it will parasitize in the human intestines and stomach, and rapidly divide and proliferate after about twelve hours, and then enter the blood and nervous system through the intestinal wall.

From then on, this person is considered to be officially "bewitched".

People who have been infected by Bliss Gu will not feel any abnormalities on weekdays, but when someone shakes the "gu bell" near them, the person's nervous system and internal organs will react immediately, making the victim's life worse than death .

This feeling can be compared to the pain of drug addiction, and it is even more terrifying than that. It cannot be resisted by strong willpower; , can also cause direct physiological damage.

In addition, after the bliss Gu subsides, the person will temporarily fall into a psychedelic state where the whole body is paralyzed, as if in the clouds, as if ascending to the gods and transcending the flesh, hence the name - "Bliss".

Some people must have thought of this after seeing this... That's right, those disciples in the Gate of Justice have all been hit by the "Bliss Gu", so they all obeyed Shen Youran's words, even if Shen asked them to fight against the entire martial arts world, they would not dare to refuse .

Of course, the Gu among these disciples is not the same group as those among these martial arts heroes.

Each batch of Bliss Gu consists of several male worms and one female worm, you can regard them as different groups.Those for human consumption are male worms, which are extremely small, hard to distinguish with the naked eye, colorless and odorless, and cannot be detected by poison testing methods; while the female worms are about half the size of a thumb, and the female worms are air-dried in a unique way to make Hard cocoons can be made into "gu bells" by putting them in a small metal cage.

Each "gu bell" can only trigger the Bliss Gu of the same group, and has no effect on the male insects of other groups.

Even if a person who has been infected by the Gu bell creates his own eardrums and loses his hearing, he cannot be immune to the Gu bell; suicide can solve the problem, but generally speaking, those who have experienced the pleasure of the Bliss Gu attack are reluctant to die...they Their brains will yearn for the next "bliss" as if they are controlled by Gu insects, and their thoughts of suicide will be suppressed. Only by completely removing these Gu insects from the body can they return to normal.

Finally, Bliss Gu also has one of the most vicious features: every six months, the Gu insects must be "exploded" in the body once, if the interval between hearing the Gu bells exceeds this time limit, those Gu insects will go crazy To destroy people's nervous system and let them die slowly in extreme pain. Therefore, even destroying the Gu Bell will not solve the problem...

To sum up, the only way to get rid of the "Bliss Gu" is to use the antidote to completely kill and remove the Gu insects.

As for what the antidote is, I won’t list it here for the time being, let’s talk about this hero banquet...

…………

Although Shen Youran didn't tell everyone the name of Bliss Gu, but the reaction before and after the onset, the consequences of trying to resist... that is, part of the content in the above paragraph, he still said it; if you don't explain it clearly, it won't work The effect of intimidation was gone.

Many people in the audience had already listened halfway through, and they already showed desperate expressions, and some tried to calm down, either because they didn't believe it, or they were still thinking about it.

Shen Youran was naturally prepared for such a reaction, so he took out the Gu bell on the spot and shook it lightly twice.

The shaking time is short, and the onset time is short. If you shake it twice, the onset will only last about 1 minute; after all, Shen Youran still has something to say next, and you can't let these people struggle there for half an hour. So long.

So, after the onset of the attack for 1 minute, and tens of seconds of "bliss", the swaying heroes gradually recovered; What do you think, one thing is for sure - they are all convinced that what Shen Youran said is true.

"Now, everyone should be clear about the situation..." Afterwards, Shen Youran said in a leisurely tone, "Shen Youran advises everyone, obediently cooperate with me, don't be brave, and you will end up standing in front of this thing..." When he said this, he turned his head and glanced at Bai Ruhong, "... Daoist Bai is a good lesson for others."

With his reminder, many people just realized that when everyone was having an attack just now, Bai Ruhong was still paralyzed there without moving, not even moaning, presumably... Daoist Bai was repeatedly tortured by Shen Youran because he refused to give in , has now become a useless person.

"Shen... Chief." After a moment of silence, another person stood up from the audience and said to Shen Youran in a more polite tone, "You do what you do today... Even if we can make us obey you for a while, you are not afraid... …In the future, we will return to our respective sects, bring those who have not been poisoned, and come back to ask you about the crime, and force you to hand over the antidote?"

The person who asked this question was Lu Shiyuan, the head of Qingyuan Zhongyi Sect, who was also a relatively high-ranking deputy head figure present.

"That's why I asked you to explain the secrets and scandals in the door...besides the martial arts mentality, and then leave."

This sentence was not answered by Shen Youran.

The person who answered, at this moment, just walked in through the side door, and walked up the high platform slowly while talking.

This man looks about 45 years old, with a medium build.

In fact, in terms of appearance alone, he is not ugly, but he has two characteristics that are difficult to accept: first, his skin is white and green, which is a kind of complexion similar to a corpse, which is extremely strange; , His body exudes a weird fragrance, which smells good, but it makes people feel nauseous for no reason.

"My lord." Seeing this person, Shen Youran immediately bowed and saluted respectfully.

"Youran, you've done a good job." The man called the lord, that is, the boss who didn't return to the building, had already walked to Shen Youran's side at this time, and looked down at the people in the banquet hall with him. Those martial arts heroes said in their mouths, "If their ancestors have knowledge under the spring, they will definitely be proud of you."

"Your Lord's words are serious, how dare Youran take the credit..." There was a flash of joy in Shen Youran's eyes, but her mouth was still very humble.

Just when the black hand behind the scene appeared on stage and greeted Shen Youran.

Sudden……

A figure suddenly rushed out from the audience, shouting loudly: "The evil spirit is crooked! I will die with you!"

There was only one idiot who yelled to remind the opponent while making a sneak attack like this, and his name was Lei Buji.

He had already made up his mind to fight with Shen Youran when he heard Shen Youran explain the effect of Bliss Gu, but the attack of the Gu worm stopped him temporarily, now he adjusted his breath a little bit below, and felt that he was relieved, so he wanted to Come up desperately.

But Lei Buji, how could he be the opponent of Shen Youran and that lord...

Shen Youran didn't intend to kill Lei Buji here, because Lei Buji's martial arts is very good and his background is a mystery, killing him may have hidden dangers, so facing Lei Buji's surprise attack, Shen Youran just smiled calmly and smiled lightly. Lightly raised his hand, intending to use two fingers to block the opponent's fist.

Unexpectedly... In this accident, another accident occurred.

However, just as Lei Buji was about to take off and rush to the stage, another figure came out from his side, and with a single tackle, Lei Buji was intercepted.

Lei Buji didn't even see who was intercepting him, so he was hugged by the waist and pushed down to the ground. Then, a hand stretched out from nowhere, and a handful of drug was smeared on his face.

After one breath, Lei Buji passed out and became unconscious.

At this time, everyone saw clearly that the people who intercepted Lei Buji and stunned him with medicine were Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai.

"hahahahahahahahaha……"

"hahahahahahahahaha……"

As the two stood up, they let out exaggerated villain-like laughs, and then very naturally... with a gesture of accomplices of evil forces, they walked towards Shen Youran and the Lord on the stage...
