Chapter 85 A Red Bracelet

Just as I suspected, something bad happened!

When she arrived at the hospital, it was exactly six o'clock. People were coming and going, and some were even being wheeled into the emergency room.

When Gu Yunsheng saw her, he quickly came over and briefly explained the situation to her. More than a dozen women claimed to have headaches and were currently in the infusion room.

Unable to find out what was wrong, he thought of his sister, wondering if she had the ability to figure out the cause of their headaches.

Gu Yunxi followed him to the infusion hall. Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the hall, the entire hall was surrounded by death energy. As expected, all the people in the hall had red ropes on their arms.

"Yunxi!"

Li Ya, who was receiving an IV drip, waved to Gu Yunxi as if she had seen a savior. Her left arm was in a cast and her right arm was receiving an IV drip. The red bracelet on her arm was unusually alluring.

I was busy dealing with her family's affairs last time, so I didn't even notice that she had bought this red string.

"What happened?"

"Since school started, I was planning to go back after registering, so I stayed with some friends a little longer. Unexpectedly, my chest started to hurt, and then my head started to hurt too, so I rushed to the hospital. Who knew that so many people had the same symptoms as me?"

Li Ya lowered her voice, "Yunxi, have we gotten ourselves into trouble with something unclean?"

Having witnessed her abilities, Li Ya felt that this world was different from what she knew, and even somewhat unfathomable.

"I can't jump to conclusions about this matter. I need to verify it. As you can see, the people sitting in the hall all have one thing in common!"

Li Ya looked around. "Are they all women?"

"Yes, not only are they all women, but you all have something on you, that is, the red rope on your arms. I suspect that's what's causing this."

Gu Yunsheng walked over, leaned down and whispered a few words in her ear, "So the symptoms have appeared in other places as well?"

She took out her phone and went to the link Qin Yinyin had sent her. The shop was a bit strange, with an overall red and black theme. The more she scrolled down, the more surprising it became.

The shop has a product page with a picture of a bracelet and the caption: "Inquire before buying a bracelet."

Gu Yunxi opened the chat interface, and a few notes immediately popped up.

[Customer Service 001: Hello, are you looking to buy a bracelet?]

[Gu Yunxi: Yes, I saw my friend wearing a pretty bracelet, so I wanted to buy one for fun.]

[Customer Service 001: The style is as shown in the picture. Whatever you want engraved, it's 180 yuan per bracelet. To place an order, just send me your birth date and time and provide the serial number. I'll verify the order and then make it for you.]

Sure enough, there was a big problem. Who would ask for someone's birth date and time just to buy a cheap bracelet?

Looking at his sister's chat history with the customer service representative, Gu Yunsheng felt that his sister had discovered something. Who would ask for your birth date and time when selling something?

"Sister, what is this?"

Gu Yunxi glanced at him. "Brother, could you tell Big Brother that I might not be able to go to school? I have to go out tomorrow. Isn't he my classmate? Could you..."

I told my older brother, "You're busy!"

Gu Yunxi looked at her phone again.

[Gu Yunxi: Do you accept group orders?]

Customer Service 001: Sure, at least thirty people.

[Gu Yunxi: May I come to the store to take a look?]

There was a two-minute silence on the other end before customer service replied, saying it was possible and even sent them their detailed address information.

Gu Yunxi checked the time; it was already 6:30 PM. She was surprised that such an online store actually had a physical store. Many of them worked from home, since renting a storefront was a huge expense!

Gu Yunxi told her third brother and went to his rest room. Since he was on night shift and no one was coming, Gu Yunsheng was worried about her and wanted to go with her.

"Fourth Brother, with my abilities, no one in this world can hurt me. You should just focus on your work!"

Gu Yunxi left behind a sentence and then disappeared.

The older brother also helped with the last child poisoning incident. Now he's a big shot at the pediatric hospital, and even a very busy one.

I can't just go along with your reckless behavior. Besides, with another person around, I'll be distracted. What if that person is really capable? Wouldn't that put me in more danger?

Before long, she arrived near the shop and saw two small red lanterns hanging at the entrance, with the words "fate" shining brightly.

It was definitely this shop. Just as she was about to step forward, someone grabbed her hand and called out, "Master."

"Huo Ziyu, what are you doing here?"

He's a completely different person now compared to when he was with Brother Biao; most importantly, he looks much more haggard.

"You're injured? With your abilities, who could possibly hurt you?"

Huo Ziyu's eyes turned red as if he had seen a powerful backer. After a long pause, he finally spoke: "I left the family and don't know where I'm going. I just got here and was on my way to the station when I unexpectedly saw Master here. Is there something you need me for?"

Gu Yunxi took a pill out of her bag. "Take this and come with me there!"

Huo Ziyu glanced at the shop, gritted his teeth, and thought, "I'm no longer a member of the Huo family. Even if the shop belongs to the Huo family, what difference does it make?"

If Master is unhappy, just tear it down!

The pill melted instantly in his mouth, and Huo Ziyu felt much more relaxed. He pulled his hat down low and followed.

This woman is no simpleton. She had investigated her through her connections. As for why she would take her as her disciple, Huo Ziyu thought she must have been crazy at the time.

However, it was her skills that attracted him.

"Master, this is something I brought from the clan, I'm giving it to you!"

Gu Yunxi glanced at it; this ring was no ordinary ring, it actually contained a hidden treasure trove. "Why don't you use it?"

"I don't have much to take with me, and this was left by a female cultivator from my ancestor. If I leave, shouldn't I take some interest with me?"

"Great, I really do need something like that. I'll accept your gift, and I'll give it to you next time I find something suitable."

Gu Yunxi put the ring on her index finger; it fit perfectly, not too big or too small, and it also gave her a strange sense of familiarity.

Could it have been left by someone from the same sect? She bit her finger and dripped a drop of blood onto the ring, and it immediately changed. The mottled marks disappeared, and it became a new ring with incomprehensible patterns.

"It's definitely a good product."

The two entered the shop, which was small, only a dozen square meters. Several small counters were visible, with red ropes displayed on them.

Further inside, there was a computer and other similar items, and some banners were even hanging on the wall. There should be another room in the back, with the words "No Trespassing" hanging on the curtain at the door.

The boss was tall and thin, wearing glasses, and quite old. He looked up at the two men, one with his eyes to the left and the other to the right, as if each had their own thoughts.

"Gentlemen, please feel free to browse. Is there anything you need?"
