Chapter 851: Life is Important, Tribulation Begins
"This batch of people will be sent over in the next month. Before they arrive, you can make a plan. If you have any difficulties or questions, we can answer them for you. By the way, are you sure those two assistants are enough? Do you want us to arrange some more people to help you?"
Three people are still a bit too few, considering how big the project is.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yin asked, "What about my teacher? Will he stay here permanently, or will he still go out?" After all, Cheng Dong's laboratory is outside, and there are students there. Gu Yin was unsure whether her teacher would stay here for long.
"You want your teacher to help?" Old Jin raised an eyebrow.
Gu Yin chuckled and said, "I'm more confident with the teacher here." If Cheng Dong were here, then no more people would be needed.
Old Jin hesitated for a moment upon hearing this: "You can ask him yourself. I'm worried that he'll have to go back to Dabai Mountain to oversee things. I heard there have been new discoveries there. It's difficult for you to keep him here. But if you throw a tantrum, cough cough, I think it's feasible. Alright, go ahead and do your thing."
After leaving Mr. Jin's office, Gu Yin went to her teacher's place.
Hu Shanming was also there when I arrived.
"Teacher, Uncle-Master," Gu Yin greeted with a smile.
When Cheng Dong saw Gu Yin coming over, he nodded: "You made such a big fuss when you went back this time. Is everything alright at home? Did you check on the lab? Are your senior classmates slacking off?"
"That was quite a commotion. We all know about it at the base. That kid from the Chu family got really badly scolded!" Hu Shanming shook his head helplessly.
Gu Yin explained, "The bigger the commotion, the more those people abroad will believe it. There's no way around it; the road to national progress is tortuous and fraught with difficulties, but we can't be timid because of that. Everyone at home knows the truth, and everything is fine. I went to the lab, and my senior colleagues have been busy all along."
Cheng Dong nodded: "That's good. So, what brings you here?"
Hu Shanming stood up: "Then I'll go out first."
After everyone left, Gu Yin smiled and went up to pour tea for Cheng Dong: "Teacher, what are your plans for the future?"
Cheng Dong raised an eyebrow: "What about discipline? How dare they inquire about my itinerary?"
"Hehe, we're not colleagues now, we're teacher and student! We're family! I want to know where my family is going next, is that okay? Teacher, please tell me, it's very important to me!"
Cheng Dong shook his head and smiled helplessly, "Do you want me to stay and do experiments with you? I know what you're thinking without you having to say it!"
"You're amazing! I just received the news, and you already knew why I came?"
Cheng Dong shook his head: "It was during dinner that Elder Jin mentioned it. When he saw you coming to see me, he guessed it. But you'll be disappointed this time. I have to go back to Dabai Mountain. There's been a new discovery there, and I need to go back to do research. They can't do without me there. As for you, I think you can handle things perfectly well on your own. Besides, this matter isn't urgent. We can take it slow. Fighter jets and such won't be developed so quickly. There's no rush. And you've already made some progress before. This time, you can take your time and work on it. If we need more people, bring your senior uncle along."
Gu Yin was a little disappointed, but the matter on the other side was also important: "Don't my uncle and the others have their own experiments to do? Does he have time?"
Cheng Dong nodded: "He and I came from the same teacher, we studied the same subjects, he can definitely help you. Once you come here, their team will disband and they will be distributed to various positions that need them. Your senior uncle just came to see me and said he wanted to do research with you, isn't this perfect?"
Gu Yin was surprised: "With me?" No, are all big shots like this? Doing experiments with a junior like her? Aren't they afraid of being laughed at?
Cheng Dong looked at Gu Yin meaningfully: "That's right, with you. You'll find out soon enough. Your uncle is a very curious person, and a bit unconventional and disregards etiquette. Let me tell you in advance, when you two are doing experiments, you better watch yourselves and don't run wild! I don't want to hear your names all over Dabai Mountain!"
Cheng Dong felt a headache coming on just thinking about how his junior brother would agree with whatever Gu Yin said and immediately carry it out, always eager to watch the drama unfold!
Gu Yin thought about Hu Shanming's appearance. He didn't seem like someone who could do anything earth-shattering. Could it be that appearances can be deceiving?
Gu Yin coughed lightly and waved her hand: "Teacher, what are you saying? I'm very good. I definitely won't do anything I don't know how to do! Don't worry! I'll also keep an eye on my martial uncle and make sure you don't embarrass yourself at Dabai Mountain!"
"I hope so!" Cheng Dong didn't believe it at all, but by then he would already be in the lab. The one who would be having a headache wouldn't be him, but Professor Jin!
After leaving Mr. Jin's office, Gu Yin began to busy herself with Chi Xing's affairs.
"How did you make all these things?" Hu Shanming had been by Gu Yin's side ever since that day, helping her. Now, looking at the medicine Gu Yin had made, he couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, Uncle-Master, I like reading novels, essays, myths, all sorts of random books. A lot of things are in them. My inspiration comes from those sources, and then I experiment with them one by one. Yes, that's it." Gu Yin looked at Hu Shanmin with a serious expression and nodded earnestly!
Hu Shanmin frowned: "Is that so? It seems so. Novels these days are really good. I'll go take a look later."
Gu Yin: "..." Whatever makes you happy.
The group arrived at the extremely cold region. When Gu Yin and the others arrived, Chi Xing was already waiting for them in the glacier.
Jin Lao and the others were also there. When they saw Gu Yin coming over, they waved for her to come over.
"Are you sure you don't need to call Chi Ye back? Can Chi Xing handle it alone?" Everyone still vividly remembers the scene when Gu Ran was undergoing her tribulation. The tragic scene and Gu Yin's condition at the time, if it happened again, no one can guarantee that they could save her!
Knowing Elder Jin's concerns, Gu Yin smiled and said, "Chi Xing said it's not necessary. This is a stage that their merfolk must go through alone. Only after passing it can they be considered fully grown. If someone helps them, even if they succeed, they won't be recognized by the rules and will be like human children, weak and sickly, and prone to early death. Don't worry, I've already made enough pills for her, and Gu Ran is also watching over her. If anything unexpected happens, we will take action."
Upon hearing this, Elder Jin nodded and gestured for Gu Yin to come over.
Gu Yin walked to the edge of the glacier, where Chi Xing was already standing upright on the water.
"Sister Ayin, I'm ready! Anytime!" There wasn't a trace of fear in her eyes, only excitement, anticipation, and the courage to break free from the shackles of life!
Gu Yin nodded and looked at her fish tail, where scales had already grown and the fish tail was full of power!
"These pills are all made for you. If you feel your spiritual energy is depleted, just take them! Don't worry about not having enough pills, I made plenty! I know your people are very strong-willed! But I promised your brother I would take good care of you. Remember, you are not alone. You have me, my partner, and your brother's life behind you! I know you are brave! I know you are amazing! But I still want to say: life is the most important thing! As long as you are alive, there is a chance! You must believe me! Do you understand?"
The wind outside the glacier was biting cold, and Gu Yin could barely stand. She handed all the dozen or so bottles of pills she had prepared in her bag to Chi Xing. Some of them were made by her, and some were exchanged from the cultivation world by 001! She hoped that Chi Xing could safely overcome his tribulation!
Chi Xing took the pill and nodded vigorously: "I know! I won't do anything stupid! I'm going now! Sister Ayin, please tell everyone to be careful. After all, we're outside, and without our brother's protective shield, I'm worried that something might happen and I won't be able to handle it! Wait for me to come back!" After saying that, he turned around and quickly swam towards the depths of the glacier!
Gu Ran, who was standing nearby, also transformed back into her original form and remained motionless on the shore.
Wen Xin and Zhang Chengming were completely dumbfounded. They couldn't believe that Gu Ran, who was with them every day, was even human! This world had truly shattered their expectations!
