Chapter 95 Avoid the Mouse's Ears, Avoid the Poison in the Heart

Seeing this, Shen Qing frowned even more deeply. "The other side of the world, you really need to take your medicine."

In view, the five-colored aura representing the five poisonous hearts above Zhang Yu's head was exceptionally clear.

But he wasn't sure if this person really had a problem, or if he just had stronger desires than the average person.

After all, I went with the student handing out flyers to check out the so-called Extraordinary Seminar, but I didn't find anything there.

Ignoring Shen Qing's words, Zhang Yu leaned closer, a glint of fervor flashing in his eyes.

"I know you don't believe me, so would you like to see it for yourself?"

"If you want, come to this place in the middle of the night."

Shen Qing raised an eyebrow as he took the note from Zhang Yu. It seemed he could gain something unexpected from the other party.

But it's the middle of the night, is this something they want people to know, or something they don't?

"No, this guy seems to be mentally ill."

Chen Chen watched Zhang Yu leave, then glanced at the note in Shen Qing's hand. "Or is this kid planning to find a secluded place to beat you up in the middle of the night?"

If that's the case, then that would be interesting.

A fake superhuman facing off against an official captain-level superhuman? Is this just suicide?

Unable to see anything unusual about Zhang Yu, Chen Chen was unaware that the other party had some problems and simply assumed he was a fraud.

"Who knows? We'll see when the time comes."

Back at the base at noon, Shen Qing explained the situation to Fang Shu in detail. Fang Shu nodded, not particularly surprised.

Although he is also on vacation, he is keeping a close eye on the recent situation.

"The revival of spiritual energy is gradually intensifying, so some private forces are starting to stir."

As Fang spoke, he looked towards the direction of the prison deep within the base, "Those few dishonest supernatural beings had been contacted by someone before they were arrested."

There might be someone behind those students you mentioned.

"After all, students haven't entered society yet, their thinking is relatively simple, and they are easily influenced. Do you need more manpower for the evenings?"

Shen Qing shook her head. "Chen Chen and I are enough. Too many people will only alert them."

"But Captain, what's the situation with the civilian forces?"

Fang Shu did not answer immediately. He sat back down at his desk and began rummaging through his drawer.

"Didn't we have a situation with spiritual energy here before? Although it was very short, it didn't leave nothing behind."

""

As he spoke, he handed over a document.

"Those charlatans or sects that practiced before are no longer very useful."

However, after the spiritual energy was restored, even without awakening any innate abilities, some people still managed to have spiritual energy enter their bodies and even reach a certain rank.

Although most of them are not strong.

But that doesn't mean they don't have any ideas. The religious sects are alright; they know their own situation and are relatively honest.

But individuals have fewer scruples, taking advantage of the chaos to make money, and so on.

Furthermore, they haven't awakened any innate abilities; it's merely the influx of spiritual energy into their bodies, which isn't very easy to detect.

Shen Qing took the documents and began to read them; they were from the Religious Affairs Bureau.

"An exchange meeting?"

I didn't expect there to be an unconventional sect competition? Although it doesn't seem to have much to do with their Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs.

"Also, be very careful, don't accept anything from them after nightfall, whether it's food or anything else."

Fang Shu gave a final piece of advice.

Shen Qing nodded, understanding what Fang Shu meant, but he wasn't particularly worried about it.

Midnight arrived quickly.

Shen Qing arrived at the location indicated on the note, looked at the familiar woodland before him, and frowned slightly.

"Is it Lin, the alumnus again?"

This area has been temporarily closed to entry due to Wu Yuan's situation.

He shook his head. It might not be the Corpse Sleeping Path again. There are many ancient trees nearby, and the spiritual energy is indeed more abundant at night.

Just then, Shen Qing's palm suddenly felt slightly warm, and his expression instantly darkened.

This place is poisonous!

[Ear Mouse Avoidance: With the ear mouse away, one is immune to all poisons. The ear mouse resembles a mouse, with the head of a rabbit and the body of a deer. It is eaten but not picked, and it can also ward off all poisons.]

It can sense whether there are poisonous creatures within a ten-foot radius, is immune to common poisons, and its flesh and blood possess a certain detoxification ability.

[Avoid the Mouse Ear] + [Three Corpse Awareness] = [Avoid Heart Poison (Green Strange Tale)]

Avoid the poison of the heart: the body avoids all poisons, the mind discerns the three poisons. Poisons come from the outside, you can avoid them; poisons arise from the heart, you can see them. Others only know to avoid poisons, but you know where poisons come from.

The skin is protected from external poisons, and the heart is protected from internal poisons.

If it weren't for the newly acquired entry and its associated bonds, he would have been affected before even meeting the person.

However, he couldn't detect what kind of poison it was, despite his extraordinary senses.

"etc."

Shen Qing raised her hand, blocking Chen Chen from walking inside.

"What's wrong?"

"I'll go in myself. You keep an eye on the surrounding area."

Seeing Shen Qing's serious expression, Chen Chen didn't press the matter, as he couldn't offer much help at his current level.

"Then be careful. If anything seems amiss or causes any disturbance, I'll notify the captain and the others immediately."

Shen Qing nodded and walked past the "No Entry" sign into the alumni forest.

The trees blocked the moonlight, and it grew darker the further we went in. Suddenly, a figure appeared at the corner of the path; it was Zhang Yu.

Shen Qing was stunned. He hadn't seen him for an afternoon, and spiritual energy had entered his body?

"Why are you the only one here?" Zhang Yu asked casually.

"He's not interested."

"That's a pity." Zhang Yu shook his head, spread his arms, and looked somewhat deranged. "He missed his chance to stand at the top!"

"Shen Qing, you're smarter than him. Believe it or not, at least you're willing to come."

Shen Qing looked at the aura of desire above his head, her brows furrowing even deeper. Was it because of the poison in the surroundings?

He himself doesn't know?

"Over here."

Zhang Yu turned around, and the two of them came to the only clearing in the grove, where more than twenty people were meditating.

Including the student who was handing out flyers during the day.

Shen Qing was slightly taken aback. Most of the people here were ordinary people, but apart from Zhang Yu, there were actually a few others who had already absorbed spiritual energy.

You can still cultivate even without awakened abilities, but it's more difficult to get started and requires more resources.

"I know you can't see anything."

Zhang Yu spoke with a smug tone, and with a wave of his hand, several talismans floated up from all around, turning into specks of light.

Under the moonlight, the open space seemed to be veiled in a light gauze.

The spiritual energy that ordinary people would normally find difficult to perceive was now easily felt.

"How about it? You can feel the difference, can't you?"

Zhang Yu laughed wildly, gradually becoming delirious, "Just being here makes one feel refreshed! This is power, the key to the future!"

He turned around and looked at Shen Qing with burning eyes.

"The world is undergoing dramatic changes, and we—the pioneers—will undoubtedly stand at the top of the world in the future!"

After listening quietly, Shen Qing suddenly spoke, "So, why did you tell me?"

He adjusted his expression, his eyes filled with shock, longing, and a hint of doubt.

Faced with this situation, a normal person would have only two reactions: either accept it directly or doubt it.

His relationship with Changyu was somewhat contradictory, and it's reasonable that his longing was mixed with doubt.

Why————

Sure enough, noticing Shen Qing's expression, Zhang Yu's smile became even brighter. "Of course I'm kind-hearted and willing to show you this new world."

""

As he spoke, he stretched out one hand, palm facing up.

Shen Qing was taken aback, somewhat puzzled.

"It's a membership fee," Zhang Yu said matter-of-factly.
