By chance, he discovers an egg inside his body. The egg splits into various insect larvae and can devour various energies to nourish its host, granting him the ability of the Heavenly Eye. Relying ...
"Hello, are you going to the Golden Triangle?" the woman said, her voice extremely pleasant and soothing. The driver and the middle-aged man were instantly mesmerized.
"Yes, yes, we're going to the Golden Triangle. Is this young lady also going to the Golden Triangle? I can take you there for 1,000 Dragon Dollars," the driver said.
The woman frowned, seemingly thinking it was too expensive, but then, remembering the quack medicine, she quickly got into the car.
Looking around at the seats, he knew that if he sat alone, the scalper would definitely stick to him, and he didn't want to be next to the middle-aged man, so he walked to the empty seat next to Gu Yan.
Gu Yan smelled the faint scent of perfume but didn't say much.
Just as the driver was about to set off, another person stopped the car. He was a young man in his early twenties, with a pale face like someone who had indulged in excessive sexual activity. His steps were unsteady, and he was panting after only a few steps.
"Zihan, wait for me!" the young man said, panting.
"I've already said my name is Yang Zihan, Yang Zihan, Chu Xuan. Don't follow me everywhere you go. I have no feelings for you," the woman said, frowning.
"Going to the Golden Triangle, right? Count me in. How much?" Chu Xuan ignored Yang Zihan's impatience and arrogantly said to the driver.
The driver glanced at him.
"Three thousand dragon coins."
"Three thousand dragon coins? That's enough for me to make several trips back and forth. Do you think the young master is easy to bully?" Chu Xuan felt like a lump of fat meat.
"Three thousand is all you want, take it or leave it."
The driver suddenly turned to look at him and said.
"Hmph, three thousand it is." Chu Xuan then got into the car.
Upon boarding the bus, Yang Zihan was already sitting next to Gu Yan.
"Hey kid, I've paid your fare. Come sit here."
He only pointed to the seat next to the middle-aged man.
But Gu Yan only glanced at him and didn't move.
He also became angry.
"Chu Xuan, aren't you going a bit too far? This isn't your Chu family home," Yang Zihan retorted.
Chu Xuan was a little annoyed that Gu Yan ignored him, so he sat down in another double seat without saying anything.
Halfway there, Yang Zihan observed Gu Yan, who was resting with his eyes closed. He was quite brave to remain calm despite Chu Xuan's threats.
However, he only thought about it for a moment and didn't say much, since they were just passersby. So he put on his headphones and started listening to music.
The road was uneven, and the car bounced violently, making them all very uncomfortable, except for Gu Yan, who didn't sway back and forth.
"Brothers, what are you going to the Golden Triangle for? It's a very chaotic place, with drug traffickers and warlords controlling various regions. Many people die there every day. It's not safe at all," the driver chatted with them.
"I'm going to talk business with a client," the middle-aged man said.
"Talking business, it seems this gentleman is quite successful. I wonder how much the order is?" the driver asked, feigning surprise.
"A few tens of millions, just so-so, barely enough to make ends meet," the middle-aged man said modestly.
However, Gu Yan clearly understood that this was not a normal conversation; they spoke with great fluency, as if they had said it countless times.
The surveillance camera scanned the area and saw that the middle-aged man's bag contained only a pile of papers and two daggers.
The driver also hid a baseball bat in a place out of sight in the back seat.
Gu Yan didn't say much. Anyway, they couldn't hurt him. If they really didn't know what was going on, it wouldn't hurt to kill them. It would be like eliminating a scourge for the people. Gu Yan thought to himself, and then closed his eyes to rest.
"Oh, and this young master, he looks like he comes from a powerful family. Could he be the future heir?" the driver said to the young master, Chu Xuan.
"Hmph, you're smart enough to know your place. Young Master is going to inherit the family assets in the future. I'm just out here to gain some experience because I have a mission. For a little driver like you to get to know me is already a good deed." Chu Xuan said arrogantly, as if he really was the heir.
The driver's eyes hardened after hearing his words, but he held back, as if this wasn't the best place to make a move. Then he continued speaking to Gu Yan.
"What is this guy doing in the Golden Triangle?"
"I heard the jade there is quite good, so I'm going to take a look," Gu Yan said.
Chu Xuan suddenly chuckled.
"You think you can judge jade? Only a jade expert who's lived in the jade industry for fifty or sixty years could do that. You're crazy for money, kid." Chu Xuan laughed loudly.
But Gu Yan ignored him.
Suddenly, the car braked hard. As people leaned forward due to inertia, the middle-aged man seemed unaffected. He suddenly pulled out a dagger from his bag and stabbed Chu Xuan, but due to the swaying, he missed and only managed to stab Chu Xuan in the arm.
"Ouch, it hurts so much! You two bumpkins dare to hurt me, young master! Do you want to die?" Chu Xuan cried out, clutching his arm.
Gu Yan opened his eyes as if he had expected it, and Yang Zihan hurriedly took off her headphones, startled.
The driver stopped the car and picked up a dagger.
"You two didn't get tilted at all, not bad." The driver said with a fierce expression, after all, the two of them had practiced for a long time before they got used to it.
"Are you all in cahoots?" Yang Zihan asked, looking at them.
"Hahaha, now you realize it, but it's too late. I've been eyeing you all this way." The middle-aged man licked his lips and looked at Yang Zihan with a lecherous gaze.
“I can give you money, as much as you want,” Yang Zihan said.
"Hahaha, not only is your money ours, but you're ours too." With that, the middle-aged man punched Chu Xuan unconscious. There was no other way; Chu Xuan was the closest to him, and if he took him down, only Gu Yan would be left in the car.
"Hey, let's finish this quickly," the driver said to the middle-aged man, while also looking at Yang Zihan with longing.
"Understood." Hei Zi finished speaking and gave a cruel smile. He then thrust his weapon directly at Gu Yan, startling Yang Zihan so much that her face paled.
Gu Yan smiled faintly, grabbed Hei Zi's wrist with one hand, and snapped it.
"ah."
The man's wrist snapped at a right angle, and the dagger fell onto the car.
"I didn't expect to run into such a tough character." Upon seeing this, the driver threw the dagger directly, aiming it at Gu Yan's neck, but caught it between two fingers.
It was then flung back and embedded in the driver's neck. Instantly, a jet of blood spurted out.
This scene terrified Yang Zihan and the man named Heizi.
Gu Yan grabbed Hei Zi's neck again and snapped it with a crack.
Yang Zihan fainted upon seeing this.
Their movements, within the range of Gu Yan's Heavenly Eye, were like a slow-motion animated film, posing no threat whatsoever.
Then he took the gourd out of the bag and poured the feed insects on them.
In no time at all, the two became dried corpses.
Gu Yan looked at the slightly grown feeder worms that had emerged and felt that their color had become much brighter.
Could human blood be better than animal blood? Gu Yan thought to himself.
Then he found a place to bury the two mummified corpses. Then he sat in the driver's seat. Having watched so many times, even without a license, he was already as experienced as a seasoned driver.
The process was smooth and effortless, without the slightest awkwardness.
