Hearing this, Bo Yuting and Gu Shiqing's faces changed slightly.

But when he thought of Lu Guichi, he didn't feel so surprised. Since the Huo family could cooperate with Lu Guichi, maybe the Huo family also had abnormal humans like Lu Guichi, or at least they had many powerful masters, so it wouldn't be difficult to do such a thing.

"No wonder when Third Brother asked his people where the Huo family's headquarters was, they refused to tell him. It seems that they also have this kind of restriction."

Lin Wu stood up and looked at the motionless person on the ground with a frown.

Bo Yuting remembered something: "I captured a member of the Huo family and gave him to Gu Chengbai. Gu Chengbai could only ask about some of the Huo family's less important bases. Now it seems that the Huo family has put a lot of effort into hiding their base camp. It is difficult for us to find out where the Huo family base camp is."

Gu Shiqing said, "Where is Lu Guichi? We can now confirm that the person who escaped from the mine with this man was Lu Guichi. He took the two bags with him, and the locator was also on him. So much time has passed, he should have returned to the Huo family, right? So can we close the net according to the information he sent back?"

Hearing this, Lin Wu shook his head, "It's not the right time yet."

Gu Shiqing was puzzled.

Bo Yuting explained on his behalf: "Lu Guichi is still carrying the thing he took out from the underground palace. He doesn't want the Huo family to know about this, so he won't return to the Huo family's place right away."

This is why Lin Wu has not been in a hurry to contact Lu Guiyan and ask him about Lu Guichi's situation.

Lu Guichi will not meet the Huo family in the short term.

Even if we contact each other, it will be after we have put away the things we have in our hands.

Unfortunately, they didn’t know what that thing was, what Lu Guichi was going to use it for, or when he would be able to settle it down and return to the Huo family, so they could only wait passively.

Thinking of this, Lin Wu suddenly turned around and looked at Gu Shiqing.

Gu Shiqing was thinking about something, and when he noticed her gaze, he asked with concern, "Wuwu, what's wrong?"

"What was in the box that Lu Guichi took away?" Lin Wu asked directly.

Gu Shiqing was stunned.

Bo Yuting also looked at him with sharp eyes.

After a moment, Gu Shiqing said, "Second brother doesn't know."

Lin Wu looked at him steadily, his dark eyes as cold as ever.

Gu Shiqing couldn't help but take a step forward and said seriously, "Wuwu, Second Brother didn't lie to you. Second Brother really doesn't know what's in the box. At first, Second Brother just received an order from above to find a special thing under the mine. As for what this thing is, none of us can say for sure. Because we really don't have relevant information and have never seen it."

"Then how did you know that what Lu Guichi took was what you were looking for?" Bo Yuting asked immediately.

Gu Shiqing glanced at him and pointed at Lin Wu's neck, "Wuwu, the pendant that Second Brother gave you is the key that Second Brother uses to find things. It was given to Second Brother by his superior. It is made of a very special material. Not only can it keep you safe, but when you get close to the things you are looking for, something strange will happen. Second Brother relies on it to identify them."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wu took out the pendant from his neck and glanced at it with lowered eyes.

After a moment of silence, Lin Wu raised his head, his eyes falling on Gu Shiqing, and asked tentatively and uncertainly: "What is it?"

There is no doubt that this pendant is very important and will be one of the secrets of Gu Shiqing's superiors, which cannot be easily known to outsiders.

In the past, Lin Wu knew this and would not have asked unnecessary questions. He would not have gotten an answer anyway.

However, at this moment, Lin Wu felt as if she could... be a little willful and confident, without having to think too much, and just pretend that she didn't know that this question was taboo, and just ask it directly regardless. And Gu Shiqing would probably... answer her?

Maybe it was because she kept hearing Gu Shiqing mentioning his second brother, she really felt that they were siblings who could trust each other, and no matter what she did, the other party would not refuse.

Lin Wu tightened his grip on the pendant slightly.

It was just a few seconds, but it seemed like a century to Lin Wu.

"It is a piece of stone chiseled from a very special meteorite. It is different from the stone used by our prophet. It is incredibly hard and has an extremely strong magnetic field that ordinary people cannot bear or perceive. Studies have shown that it can offset the abilities of people like Lu Guichi."

Lin Wu was stunned.

Gu Shiqing looked at her, thinking that she didn't believe him, and quickly said, "Second brother said it's all true, I didn't lie to you. If you don't believe me, you can go to... Well, these are top secret files, which are usually not available. Second brother guarantees that what he said is true..."

"I believe it."

Lin Wu spoke softly.

Bo Yuting, who had been paying attention to her, was also stunned for a moment, then he understood instantly and spoke to draw Gu Shiqing's attention away from Lin Wu.

"How could there be something like this up there? And what does research show it means? Have you done similar experiments before? But how did you do them?"

The more Bo Yuting thought about it, the tighter his brows furrowed. "As for Lu Guichi's situation, since he has kept himself hidden so well for the past ten years, he would not have exposed himself, and you would not have known that he is not human. But you said you did an experiment... Is there really someone like Lu Guichi, and he is in your hands?"

As he spoke, he walked up to Lin Wu, held her hand, and squeezed her palm.

Lin Wu looked at him and felt warm in his heart, then he looked at Gu Shiqing.

What Bo Yuting said was exactly what she was confused about.

The importance of this matter can be big or small.

But to their disappointment, Gu Shiqing's face was full of confusion and astonishment, and it was obvious that he didn't understand either.

He thought about it carefully, then shook his head: "I don't know. When I got this thing, I had similar doubts and asked them what kind of experiments they had done. At that time, the people above told me that they did it with the assistance of the Xuan Master, and all the experiments were basically based on Xuanshu."

"Later, Lu Guichi got into trouble. I learned about it from my eldest brother. Especially after I knew that Lu Guichi had cooperated with the Huo family, I became worried about this operation and contacted my superiors to inquire. They told me not to worry because the material used to make the pendant was so special that it could offset all abnormal forces. Of course, people like Lu Guichi were also included."

Gu Shiqing pondered for a moment, then said with more certainty, "Yes, that's right. At least I have never seen another person like Lu Guichi. Before him, I had never heard of such a person. Even the snake man in the underground palace was something I had never thought of."

Therefore, Bo Yuting’s speculation is basically invalid.

The reason why his superior was so sure about the power of the pendant was simply because the pendant itself was very special.

After listening, Lin Wu and Bo Yuting looked at each other and asked again: "Where did you get the meteorite material for making this pendant?"

Gu Shiqing shook his head: "I don't know about that. By the time I knew about it, it had already been in the hands of those above me for who knows how long."

Lin Wu seemed to be thinking about something, and did not ask any more questions. He let Zheng Yuan, who was waiting quietly on the side, deal with the person on the ground.

Zheng Yuan responded respectfully, called two people to carry the man away, and followed him to the backyard.

Lin Wu had to go back to the study to continue painting.

But Bo Yuting and Gu Shiqing both felt that she had been in the study for a whole day and it would be bad for her health if she stayed there any longer, so they agreed to keep her to do something else.

Gu Shiqing suddenly had an idea. He took out a tablet and connected it to his phone, then pulled up the photo album. "Wuwu, look quickly. These are photos of your older brother, your second brother, and your sister when they were little, as well as photos of your parents when they were young. Alas, you're the only one missing. If only we had found you earlier, our family photo albums would be several volumes thicker!"

Bo Yuting also wanted to watch, but Gu Shiqing pushed him away and firmly said that as an outsider, it was not time for him to watch.

But Lin Wu himself didn't like taking photos, and certainly wasn't interested in them, so he just looked at a few of them symbolically. He couldn't resist Gu Shiqing's nagging, so he saved a family photo of the Gu family and slipped away upstairs.

At the same time, he also sent a message to Lu Guiyan to inquire.
