Chapter 671: Lure the Snake Out of Its Hole (Part 2)
Tai Shi Su was just about to invite Xie Xihe in for a visit, but when he looked up, he saw that the other party was looking at somewhere. After a moment of surprise, he followed his gaze.
"Hall Master Yi? Why is he back?" Tai Shi Su raised his eyebrows in surprise. Thinking of something, he turned and looked at Xie Xihe, saying, "Oh, Hall Master Yi is also from China. I heard he has been in Kyoto. Lord Xie is also in Kyoto, right? Does he know Hall Master Yi?"
Xie Xihe looked away as if nothing had happened and said casually, "We've met a few times, but we're not that familiar."
After a pause, he casually asked, "He's the head of the Guardian Hall? I wonder which branch he belongs to?"
This matter was no secret in the Guardian Hall, and anyone could easily find out by asking around. Therefore, Taishi Su made no effort to conceal it and replied, "The eighth branch hall, in charge of biomedicine."
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Master Xie, have you heard of targeted mutation technology?"
Pointing in the direction of Yi Shaowen, he said, "This was researched by Hall Master Yi and his team. The test results are good, and it has entered the production stage."
Targeted mutation?
Xie Xihe's eyes flickered with a strange look as he thought of something, but he didn't show it on his face. He nodded and said, "I've heard a little bit about it."
Although they are all hall masters, Yi Shaowen is different from them.
He stays in the outside world most of the time. Only when he finds a new topic or is summoned by an important project will he return to the Guardian Hall for in-depth research.
People outside don’t know his identity as the guard of the temple, and people guarding the temple don’t know his specific actions outside.
Therefore, even Taishi Su didn't know his specific situation, so he just said a few words and passed it over, saying directly: "Since he is someone I know, if you have nothing to do, you can talk to Master Yi. Do you need me to take you over to say hello?"
Xie Xihe shook his head: "No need."
He raised his eyes and said, "Master Taishi, please go and do your own thing. You don't need to take care of me here. If there is anything, I can just ask Fu Yunting."
This is my order to expel you.
Tai Shi Su understood and felt relieved. After saying a few more polite words, he left.
It wasn't until they entered the room and were the only ones left that Sheng Shijing, who had been silent the entire time, finally spoke up: "What happened to the targeted mutation technology?"
Xie Xihe was not surprised that he noticed her abnormality. After a pause, she replied, "I saw this technique in a small dream world and wrote it down in the notebook I gave to Yi Shaowen."
"I just made a few simple notes, but I didn't expect him to figure it out."
It can be seen that Yi Shaowen is indeed quite talented and capable, and is not inferior to Mo Huai at all.
But unfortunately, he gave up his position as the head of the Guardian Hall and went to work as a vice president of the Chinese Medical Association. Both his reputation and prestige were far inferior to those of Mo Huaizhi, the president.
This is worth further investigation.
When something is out of the ordinary, there must be something wrong. It's either due to his personality, or he has other motives.
Based on these meetings and the information currently available, Xie Xihe is more inclined to the latter.
And if nothing unexpected happens, this purpose is most likely related to her...
Thinking of this, Xie Xihe felt confused and irritated. He didn't understand why he was being targeted when he had only met the other person a few times.
Mo Huaizhi also thought of this and frowned tightly.
While he was thinking, Sheng Shijing suddenly looked at him and asked, "Where did you get the red dates and wolfberries for the health tea you made for Xier?"
"I bought it at the Chinese Medical Association's pharmacy." Mo Huaizhi replied, his heart suddenly skipping a beat. "Is there something wrong with those herbs?"
But after saying this, it seemed impossible.
Not to mention that he carefully checked the herbs before brewing them. Even if he was not well-trained and did not find the problem, with Xie Xihe's medical skills, it is impossible that he had not noticed anything wrong until now.
If someone really tampered with those red dates and wolfberries without being discovered by them, how capable must that person be?
Mo Huaizhi didn't believe that anyone could do this.
Xie Xihe didn't think that anyone could tamper with the food she took under her nose, but when she was drinking tea today, she did sense a hint of ominous aura from it.
Yes, it’s breath.
So far, Xie Xihe has not found out what exactly is wrong with the red date and wolfberry tea.
It was only because of her ability of fortune-telling that she had a keen sense of danger, and that was how she caught that ominous aura.
It was because Sheng Shijing reminded her first, and her fortune-telling ability had been qualitatively improved, that she finally noticed it.
Speaking of this, she thought of it, turned her head to look at Sheng Shijing, and asked, "How did you find out?"
"A contract of shared destiny." Sheng Shijing replied, "The contract is reminding me that it seems to have sensed something and is not very happy."
Xie Xihe: "...Will the contract be unhappy?"
Sheng Shijing was very sure: "Yes."
"Those red dates and wolfberries must have something in them that could threaten the contract between us to a certain extent, causing a sense of crisis in the covenant of unity within me, and it immediately sent me a signal." Sheng Shijing explained, his gaze gradually deepening. "Although this signal isn't very strong, it's enough to show that this thing is quite extraordinary."
Everyone was silent for a long time. Fu Yunting then said, "So, what do you want to do?"
Xie Xihe and Sheng Shijing exchanged glances and both saw the coldness in each other's eyes.
Xie Xihe's lips curled up into an icy arc, and he said slowly: "Of course, to lure the snake out of its hole."
She glanced towards the stairs and caught a glimpse of clothing around the corner. After a pause, her gaze fell on Fu Yunting. "I remember one of the functions of the Star Core is to use unique rays to alter brainwave records, thereby tampering with memories?"
"Have you mastered this ability?"
Fu Yunting raised his lip corners in a wicked arc, raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you think?"
He pulled Mo Huaizhi to his feet and walked up the stairs slowly. He raised his voice slightly as he walked and said, "This environment is much better than the big bunk bed I live in. Boss, there are so many empty rooms. How about giving Lao Mo and me a room each?"
He turned around and went into the nearest room, exclaiming in admiration.
Facing the surprised gaze of the servant who was cleaning the room, he narrowed his eyes and smiled, waving, "Hello~"
The servant's heart tightened and he wanted to bow immediately, but the moment he straightened up, a large blank space appeared in front of his eyes.
Then she knew nothing...
The servant's body went limp and he fell onto the big bed behind him.
??Good night
