Chapter 97 Five Poisonous Gu, Demonic Disaster Paper Plane Inside the Evil Suppression Division, Chu Ge sat in the library, flipping through books that recorded historical events of the Great Zhou. Compared with the country with rich history and long history where he lived in his previous life, the Great Zhou Dynasty, which has only a history of more than 90 years since its establishment by King Wu of Zhou, obviously has a much thinner history. But even so, the Great Zhou, with its thin history, still has some bright spots. Such as the Gongmi Festival which is celebrated throughout the country every year. There was no Spring Festival in the Great Zhou Dynasty, but there was a Tribute Rice Festival near the end of the year. The Tribute Rice Festival was established when Emperor Wu of Zhou ascended the throne. He was grateful for the sufferings of the people of the country for a long time, so he promulgated the festival after granting amnesty to the whole country. The original intention of the Gongmi Festival is to "use the rich to help the poor and bring harmony to the world". Everyone or their family elders have experienced poverty and destitution. Therefore, even after becoming rich, we should still remember the hard times we had, be grateful for the years of poverty and struggle in the past, lend a helping hand to the poor, and donate food to show our kindness. In the past, the Great Zhou Dynasty established the Tribute Rice Festival, and even the royal family personally participated in it and led by example. It did indeed resolve the class contradictions and people's livelihood grievances at the time to a large extent, and also resolved famine problems in many areas, consolidated the imperial power of the Great Zhou Dynasty at that time, and made the dragon-slaying hero Zhou Wu more famous, and the name of Emperor Wu became known throughout the world. "It is true that there is no dynasty that lasts a thousand years, and even a hundred years is hard to come by today."
Chu Ge closed the book, shook his head slightly, feeling regretful. Given his current status, it is difficult to say what follows. People's hearts will change. Emperor Wu of Zhou, the dragon-slaying hero who once stood with the poor people of the world, has behaved in such a disgraceful way in recent years that he seems like a different person. This has also led to the gradual change of the Gongmi Festival over the years. Even some wealthy people stopped helping the people and instead followed Emperor Wu's example and exploited them even more. The upper class exploits the middle class, the middle class exploits the lower class, the lower class exploits the lower class, the big fish eat the small fish, the small fish eat the shrimps. The Gongmi Festival is now in name only in many places. Whether to help the people or not depends entirely on one's conscience. It is no wonder that the Yellow Turbans rose up at this time under the slogan of "Robbing the rich to help the poor". If you don’t give, then rob. Anyway, the wealth of the rich is mostly obtained by exploiting the poor. Robbing the rich to help the poor is just a way to get the world back on track and let wealth flow into the hands of those who need it more. "It seems that the small city of Linyuan is much more simple and rustic. In the three years since I traveled through time, the local wealthy businessmen would help the people during the Tribute Rice Festival. Although I am a little poor, I follow the local customs and maintain this fine tradition." Chu Ge gave himself a thumbs up in his heart, stood up and walked out of the library. Now the Gongmi Festival is approaching. But in about ten days, he would start his duty at the Evil Suppression Bureau. The three-month adaptation period for new employees is coming to an end. However, at this time, things outside were not peaceful. The sixteen states of the Great Zhou, including Cangzhou, Mingzhou, Jizhou, Yuzhou, and Hengzhou where he is now, have all been in chaos. Other places such as Youzhou and Yuezhou were also not peaceful, with undercurrents surging.
Outside Jiangcheng Prefecture, strange monsters have appeared frequently recently. Many travelers and merchants entering and leaving the city were attacked by strange monsters and some even died. Some were even eaten, and when they were found, only white bones were found. This incident happened near the Tribute Rice Festival, and the Evil Suppression Office attached great importance to it. They set up a stronghold outside the city and dispatched a large number of personnel to patrol and guard outside the city to protect the safety of the area. Under such circumstances, many people in the company have taken turns on duty outside the city several times. It will be Chu Ge's turn soon. Chu Ge was quite helpless about this. In the past, those who had just joined the Evil Suppression Bureau could only perform some simpler and less dangerous tasks on their first duty. This time, it is very likely that he will be arranged to help guard a place outside the city, which is rather troublesome. "I hope these strange monsters were not deliberately attracted by some powerful force..." He pondered over it, feeling something was not right. However, the situation in the Evil Suppression Bureau was unusually calm, and no deacon or senior officials revealed any further information or opinions on the matter. The auspicious and auspicious hanging thousand has been quite peaceful recently, which seems to indicate that there is no danger. However, in order to be prepared for danger in times of peace, Chu Ge had already started to prepare some unconventional methods in addition to his cultivation, in preparation for the upcoming duty. He was wearing the uniform of a Golden Sparrow Tiger Guard, and under the respectful gazes of many Silver Sparrow Wolf Guards and ghostwriters, he quickly left the Evil Suppression Division and arrived at the Lin family. Nowadays, except for Lin Zhenyuan, a paper man possessed by a refined little ghost who appears to keep the situation under control, Chu Ge has the final say most of the time. Lin Yun, the once authoritative butler of the Lin family, has died and has been replaced by a new butler. Half of the guests at the Blood Exchange Realm were recruited by Chu Ge himself. The world is in chaos nowadays, and the thresholds for admission to some other big families, including the Zhenxie Division, are high. Many blood-changing warriors who came to Jiangcheng Prefecture from other small places to make a living could not find a good employer. Chu Ge recruited some blood-exchanging warriors at this time, and also took advantage of the opportunity to quickly build a blood-exchanging team that obeyed his orders. Regardless of the loyalty of these people, at least the framework has been set up. Whether it will be solid in the future depends on how he manages it. Therefore, Chu Ge's authority within the Lin family has been thoroughly established. As for those outside the Lin family, most people only thought that Chu Ge got Lin Tao's support because of his sister Chu Feixue's relationship. For the impoverished Lin family, which has now lost its magic weapon, making friends with another true disciple of the Hidden Water Sect is undoubtedly an excellent measure to consolidate their position. But no one knew that Lin Tao had been missing for more than a month. Even the Hidden Water Sect had sent a deacon to inquire and investigate seven days ago. By the way, we will also investigate the whereabouts of outer sect disciples such as Ge Qingrui who disappeared some time ago. However, the deacon was eventually dealt with by Chu Ge and the paper man Lin Zhenyuan. At this time, after Chu Ge changed out of his Goldfinch Tiger Guard uniform, he let Xiao Qian play with the refined little ghost while he entered the secret room he had built in the Lin family.
The layout of this secret room is similar to his ancestral home in Linyuan City, but it is larger. Over the past two months, many spiritual materials and old items collected from other places by the dismissed relatives of the Lin family have been stored in this secret room after being transported here. With the support of the Lin family, a century-old family with extensive channels, Chu Ge was able to collect underworld materials much faster. But the wealth accumulated by the Lin family was also spent by him like water. Now that he has reaped a lot of rewards, he has begun to study the poison arts among the five Maoshan miracles. The five poisonous skills recorded in the Five Maoshan Miracles have special formulas for making toxins. They are a kind of mixed poison and can be called Miaojiang Gu poison. Chu Ge had studied this kind of poison before traveling through time, but he had not delved into it in depth. After all, the social structure of that world was completely different. The poison was useless and would only bring trouble to oneself. In Linyuan City, due to lack of channels and sufficient funds, he only dabbled in it and simply created some bacteria and viruses that could threaten mortal warriors. Now, he has collected some finished spiritual poisons and many living poisonous creatures. Poisonous creatures such as centipedes, small snakes, centipedes, poisonous ants, and poisonous bees are combined with spiritual poisons to create mixed poisons, which are also very powerful and pose some threat to the Condensation Realm. However, what he was looking forward to more was to cultivate a real poisonous insect from a living poisonous creature. He put on a thick homemade mask, clothes, gloves and helmet, held his breath and entered the poison room, lifting a baffle on the ground. "Hiss, hiss, hiss--" Deep in the pit under the baffle, you can see seven or eight colorful little snakes twisting and spitting their tongues. Their cold eyes and scales are intimidating. However, I saw that there were scarlet poisonous ants clinging between the pupils of some small snakes. Occasionally they would bite the small snakes, causing them to twist in pain. In the soil among these poisonous substances, some red, green and yellow poisonous fungi grew, and their surfaces produced terrifying venom. On the largest poisonous fungus, there was a black poisonous bee lying with its eyes as dark as a ghost. Many poisonous creatures around it avoided the bee as if they were very afraid of it. "Other poisonous creatures died or became listless after taking the spiritual poison, but this poisonous bee is still good, and it has become darker. I wonder if it can be infused with special powers?" Chu Ge's expression was solemn. He took out a small bottle from his arms and shook it slightly. The poisonous bee seemed to smell the scent in the bottle. It flapped its wings and flew out with a buzzing sound, and lay at the mouth of the bottle. Chu Ge reached out and carefully touched the poisonous bee, trying to infuse a trace of strange power into its body. The poisonous bee's body suddenly stiffened, and a ferocious look appeared in its pale blue pupils. The shiny black poisonous stinger on its tail trembled, as if it was about to attack. But the next moment, his body froze, and then fell straight down. "Failed again?" Chu Ge frowned and quickly caught it with his hand. Suddenly, he felt something in his mind, and his keen sense of energy realized that the poisonous bee still had a faint breath, and was not completely dead, and the strange power in its body had not dissipated. His eyes revealed a hint of joy and hope, and he immediately squatted down and took out some poisonous fungi with a scraper. Then he poured a new batch of living poisonous creatures that had been delivered to the side into the pit to continue breeding the poison.
He turned and left, taking the poisonous bees and poisonous fungi with him. After dozens of breaths, Chu Ge placed the poisonous bee in a mud pool filled with methane. After extracting some venom from the poisonous fungus, he walked out of the poison room. If this newly cultivated poisonous bee can really withstand the strange power like other evil props, it will turn into a poisonous insect with a greatly increased toxin, comparable to spiritual poison, which also means that his five poisons skills have truly broken through. With such a poisonous bee by his side, he will have one more trump card. After completing the cultivation of the poison, Chu Ge took out some spiritual materials and began to tinker in the secret room with research on making shadow puppets and paper figures and embroidery equipment with better materials. He tried to develop a shadow puppet paper figure that was no longer just misleading, but had some combat power or special functions. At the same time, a set of Four-Elephant embroidered clothes is made to enhance defense and strength. But this is extremely complicated, and requires combining the skills of the Five Maoshan Miracles with spiritual materials to innovate and go a step further, to find one's own path, and it is not easy to succeed. Outside the city, the undulating green mountains, one above the other, disappear into the depths of the misty clouds. There is a river flowing on both banks of the mountain, and the peaks on both sides are steep and rugged. Looking up, you can only see a curved line of sky. Several figures stood inconspicuously on the hillside of one of the mountains. Looking down at the Jiangcheng Prefecture where the river was flowing below, his gaze finally stopped at some flaming camps outside the city in the distance. One of them suddenly said, "The Jiangcheng Prefecture's Evil Suppression Division has eight people in the Condensation Realm. The leader is the late Condensation Realm master, Ma Zhangsi, but he is at the Spirit God Realm. Unless an elder or deputy sect master comes in person, this bone cannot be moved." "There's no need to be so crazy about taking them down. We just need to create a monster plague to distract the attention of the Evil Suppression Bureau here, which will make it easier for us to capture the Acropolis. At the very least, we can cooperate with the main sect to take down the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers." "The Beast Taming Sect also wants to gain some benefits. This is what the chief sect leader has promised them. If we make a feint, they will be hard to explain." "Haha, that's not something we need to worry about. Let the altar master and the sect master deal with the troublesome relationship with the guy you contacted last time. How about that?" "He has agreed to carry the banner for our glorious cause!" As the few of them were communicating at this point, they suddenly heard a strange howl that sounded like a cow or a wolf coming from the mountains below. Their faces changed slightly, and they all looked fearful. They quickly retreated and their figures disappeared into the night. Two days later. "Whoosh-" A paper airplane was gently thrown out by Chu Ge. It drew a graceful arc, flew dozens of feet away, and even turned a corner before finally landing. There was a loud bang! The moment the paper airplane landed, the strange power infused into it exploded due to the disorder, and paper pieces exploded in all directions, creating a shallow pit on the ground. But this kind of power is obviously not worth sacrificing a bit of special force. "Failed again." Chu Ge shook his head slightly, walked over to look at the shallow pit on the ground, feeling the impetuous fluctuations of strange power around him, his eyes filled with deep thought. "Although the destructive power is poor on the surface, it is a force after all. If it comes into contact with the human body, it will explode and invade the human body."
Chu Ge's eyes lit up slightly, and he found a little comfort. He has been staying at home these past two days, researching a new type of shadow puppet paper figure with combat capabilities, but has failed repeatedly. This is because even spiritual paper like purple bamboo paper, or gold paper, cannot withstand too much strange force and will explode. Unable to withstand too much strange power, the shadow puppet paper figure is naturally like a skilled cook without rice, and cannot have any combat effectiveness. As a result, Chu Ge's research also reached a bottleneck. However, he also gained new inspiration from failure. Unstable spiritual materials, when filled with too much strange energy, could not last long and exploded chaotically, like time bombs. And because it is infused with special forces, the power of this bomb is not as simple as it seems. Although its destructive power on ordinary objects is limited, it poses a great threat to humans. If it is attached with special power, once it explodes, the special power will burst out, which is equivalent to the power of a blow from a strong person in the Condensation Realm. Being caught off guard, it is also a great threat to those who are strong in the Condensation Realm. So, Chu Ge followed this idea and made paper airplanes or paper dragonflies, trying to infuse them with special powers to use as a one-time means of hurting the enemy. This kind of unorthodox method can be used to disrupt fierce battles with powerful enemies, and can also be used as a tool to create chaos and escape in battles with large groups. It is quite practical. In addition, paper airplanes or paper dragonflies can also use the techniques of maid lanterns and clairvoyant kites to draw some maid sisters or clairvoyants on the surface and instill supernatural powers. This is also very useful for short-distance mobile reconnaissance in a small area or narrow and complex terrain. "I need to study harder and become more mature. Unfortunately, I don't have much time left to relax." Chu Ge picked up the fragments on the ground and sighed, then looked at Xiao Qian who was having a lot of fun sitting on a paper dragonfly not far away, and smiled silently. At this time, the newly promoted housekeeper Chi Si rang the bell outside the courtyard, indicating that there was something to report. Chu Ge clapped his hands and walked out of the yard. "Master Chu, this is an invitation from the Feihu family, inviting the old master, Master Lin, and you to attend a banquet in two days." "Flying Tiger family?" Chu Ge glanced at the content of the invitation, shook his head, and said, "I don't have much time, and Mr. Lin will not go either. Butler Chi, you can go as a representative." Chi Si was stunned. He didn't expect Chu Ge to be so disrespectful to the Feihu family. But he immediately bowed and accepted the order. He knew very well who gave him his current status and who he should respect more in the Lin family. Similar invitations were also sent to other family members at this time. However, no one knew that some of the invitations were not sent to the family, but to a few newcomers who had just joined the Evil Suppression Division. (End of this chapter)
