As soon as the word "survive the tribulation" was uttered, everyone in the metaphysics department fell into silence.
These two words sound like a joke.
But they couldn't laugh.
Minister Jing Hongcai took the phone from Wei Chengyu and asked in a deep voice, "What does the tribulation that Miss Gu mentioned mean?"
"Literally." Gu Lingqing wasn't the least bit surprised that someone else was speaking, nor did he care. He said calmly, "You've revealed too many secrets. I have a feeling you're going to get struck by lightning."
Jing Hongcai and others: "..." Are you serious?
Thunder tribulation, does this fantasy thing really exist?
"When will you overcome the tribulation? As for a place, if you need it urgently, there is an island reef in the South China Sea. I can apply for a military helicopter to take you there now." After a long time, Jing Hong said in a deep voice.
Whether it is a mule or a horse, you will know the truth by taking it out for a walk!
Gu Lingqing thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then tonight. I have to attend the film opening ceremony tomorrow morning, so I hope I can make it in time."
Everyone in Xuanbu: "..."
"Okay, at exactly 21:00, the helicopter will hover on the roof of your building." Jing Hongcai said.
"Okay." Gu Lingqing nodded.
After hanging up the phone.
Wei Chengyu immediately stared at Jing Hongcai in disbelief and asked, "Minister, you don't really believe she's going to undergo a tribulation, or a thunder tribulation, do you?"
"That's right. If she gets killed by lightning, wouldn't all our time spent here be in vain?" He Yin, the only woman in the room, said speechlessly.
They had been observing her for so many days, and it was ridiculous that she died, not to mention being struck by lightning.
"I can barely accept accurate fortune-telling, but I can't stand the idea of escaping tribulation. Boss, has this woman gone crazy from fortune-telling?" Zhu Tong looked as if he was suggesting that she be sent to a psychiatric department for a check-up.
"Wait, what you said means that you are certain that she will be struck by lightning?" Deputy Minister Du Deben asked with a helpless smile.
Everyone's faces froze.
"Alright." Jing Hongcai looked around at everyone in the room and said solemnly, "After so many days of close observation, you have all seen her extraordinary abilities. Those are not something a normal human can do."
"But..." Zhu Tong wanted to argue, but Jing Hongcai interrupted him directly and said in an unquestionable tone: "Chengyu and I will escort her to the South China Sea."
He then turned to Deputy Minister Du Deben and said, "Old Du, you are responsible for contacting and coordinating with other departments. Make sure no information is leaked."
"Minister, I'll go with you." He Yin raised her hand and explained, "There's a woman in the team, Miss Gu should feel more relaxed."
Jing Hongcai thought about it and nodded, "Okay, then I'll add you."
He Yin cheered softly.
Although others also wanted to join in the fun, in order to maintain confidentiality and not leak any information, they could only go about their work with regret.
At 7:58, Gu Lingqing took the elevator to the top of the building.
At the same time, a military helicopter hovered five or six meters above.
A rope ladder was lowered.
Gu Lingqing looked up and saw two men and one woman in front of the cabin door above, all six pairs of eyes looking directly at her.
A middle-aged man looked serious, a young man looked curious and excited, and a young woman looked suspicious and wanted to watch the fun.
Gu Lingqing smiled at the three of them, then ignored the rope ladder that was lowered, jumped from the spot, and directly... jumped up!
Without even a running start, he jumped onto a helicopter that was nearly six meters high!
The naval aviator's pupils shrank, but he quickly regained his composure and flew the helicopter towards the South China Sea.
"Hello, Miss Gu. My name is Wei Chengyu. This is our department head Jing Hongcai, and this is He Yin."
After Wei Chengyu introduced himself, he looked at Gu Lingqing with sparkling eyes and said with a look of amazement and longing:
"Miss Gu, with your skills, it would be a shame if you didn't participate in the Olympics. If you were to high jump, you would win gold medals!"
Although I've seen her jump higher in videos before, it's never as shocking as seeing it with my own eyes.
He Yin also opened her mouth wide.
To be honest, she still had some doubts in her heart before, thinking that the previous video was "fake" to some extent, but they just didn't notice it.
But now that she had seen it with her own eyes, she was speechless.
"I believe that even the best special forces in our country cannot compare to Miss Gu in this respect!" Jing Hongcai also sighed.
Gu Lingqing waved his hand and smiled, "I don't have any other advantages except that I've been able to jump high since I was a child."
Jing Hongcai: "..." A polite yet awkward smile.
Wei Chengyu: "..." He only gave this a score of 99, because if he gave her one more point, she would be proud!
He Yin's mouth twitched and she said, "Miss Gu, you are too modest. Your acting skills are very good, and your fortune telling is also very accurate!"
"So, Miss Gu, do you really want to go through the thunder tribulation? Will it be dangerous?" Wei Chengyu said with a worried look on his face, looking at Gu Lingqing and asked.
"Being struck by lightning would cause serious injuries, right? Is there no way to avoid it?" He Yin also asked.
Gu Lingqing looked at the three of them and said with a half-smile, "Some things can indeed be avoided as long as I don't say them, but..."
"But what?" He Yin tilted her head and asked.
"But in three days, a landslide will occur somewhere, causing over a thousand casualties."
"Where?" He Yin asked without hesitation.
Gu Lingqing looked at her but smiled without saying anything.
He Yin reacted the next second. Seeing that the Minister and Wei Chengyu were frowning and seemed to be hesitant to speak, she was silent for a few seconds and whispered, "I understand."
"Is there anything we need to do?" Jing Hongcai sighed and asked.
He asked this question very cleverly.
It can be understood that if she leaks the secret and is struck by lightning, what can they do to help her?
It can also be understood that if Gu Lingqing doesn't say anything, they can do the greatest possible thing to help the people in the disaster area.
They will not stand on the moral high ground to kidnap Gu Lingqing. It is entirely her choice to tell or not.
but,
The time has come to test human nature.
Gu Lingqing sighed and said, "As a Daxia person, how could I watch so many compatriots die without saving them? It's just a mere thunder tribulation. If you have the guts, strike me to death with it!"
As she spoke, she looked directly at the three people with a half-smile on her face, and said word by word, "Three days later, Gaoliu District, Xi Province, at 4:18 in the morning."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dull rumble of thunder came from the sky, and dark clouds instantly covered the starry sky.
