Chapter 3320 Shen Tianyu 720
Before Qin Heng could react, Sheng Po flashed and was already thirty or forty meters away.
Qin Heng shouted at his retreating figure, "If you can't beat me, call me Brother Tianyu! Don't be stubborn!"
Sheng Po was worried about Gu Chuchu and didn't have time to answer.
With swift steps, they moved with incredible speed.
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the vast shadows of the trees.
The old man and the young man stared in astonishment; they had indeed offended someone they shouldn't have.
They might know one or two people who raise gu poison, but those who know light-body skills are extremely rare in today's society. If someone can master light-body skills, then other skills are naturally beyond their reach.
The old man turned his head and looked Qin Heng up and down again.
Although the man was young, he had an imposing presence and was revered by Sheng Po as "King Heng".
The old man felt even more fearful and asked, "Young master, is the Tianyu you mentioned the same as Shen Tianyu, the young metaphysical genius who became famous in the capital?"
Qin Heng said, "That's right."
"What is your relationship with that very beautiful young girl?"
"My cousin."
Upon hearing this, the old man's face darkened.
He kicked the young man, cursing, "You little bastard, are you blind? I told you to find a fat sheep, but you went and kicked a steel plate! Of all people to mess with, why did you have to mess with the Gu family of Kyoto?"
The young man bent over, rubbing his leg that had been kicked, and said through gritted teeth, "She looked like a rich young lady, and I only knew she must be very wealthy. Who knew she was from the Gu family in Kyoto? She didn't write 'I'm a member of the Gu family' on her forehead!"
The old man fell silent.
Wealthy people in Kyoto are not to be trifled with, and those from the Kyoto family are especially difficult to deal with.
If this matter hadn't been exposed, they might have become Gu Chuchu's great benefactors and honored guests of the Gu family. Unfortunately, the matter was exposed.
The problem is that things got exposed.
The old man spoke respectfully to Qin Heng, "King Heng, rest assured, I will definitely help you find the tomb you are looking for and atone for this little brat's sins."
Sheng Po called Heng Wang, that's fine.
The old man shouted too, which made Qin Heng feel strange.
Qin Heng picked up his phone and dialed Shen Tianyu's number, saying, "Brother, something happened to Chu Chu. Sheng Po is on his way back. Why don't you go and help her out?"
Shen Tianyu replied, "Things aren't going well here either, so be careful."
Qin Heng's thick eyebrows furrowed. "What happened on your end?"
"I'll deal with the corpse beetle right away and then go find Chu Chu."
Qin Heng's eyes turned cold. Had they fallen into a nest of corpse beetles?
Wasn't this thing supposed to be extremely rare, only found in ancient tombs? How come it's everywhere now?
He hung up the phone and looked at the old man and the young man in front of him with a suspicious look in his eyes.
The old man felt uneasy under his gaze and quickly waved his hands to explain, "This has nothing to do with us. We are just ordinary people. It's difficult to raid tombs these days, so we can only use this method to extort some money to fill our stomachs. We have no intention of harming anyone."
Qin Heng didn't believe him. "Let's go, let's go find the tomb you mentioned."
At this moment, Sheng Po had already hurriedly descended the mountain.
After picking up his car, he drove as fast as he could to the hotel.
He abandoned the car on the side of the road and, without even going into the lobby, climbed up the wall to the floor where Gu Chuchu lived.
He opened the window and looked inside.
Sure enough, there were swarms of blood-red corpse beetles everywhere—in the corners, by the door, in the bathroom, in the air…
Gu Xiao and Gu Chuchu were in the middle of the room, using towels and pillows to swat at the corpse beetles.
The two were wrapped in blankets, covering their heads and bodies.
Outside the door were the hotel's security personnel and room manager.
They were on the phone, urging the police to come, but no one dared to step forward, let alone rush into the house. They all stayed far away, wrapped up tightly in thick masks and face shields, for fear of being bitten.
Gu Xiao's bodyguards tried to rush in several times, but were stopped at the door by the corpse beetles.
Sheng Po sprinkled the medicinal powder in his hand onto the corpse beetles.
The corpse beetles that had been covered in the medicinal powder fell to the ground, instantly turning the ground a bloody red.
Sheng Po chanted a few incantations, then opened his mouth.
A golden light flashed out!
The flower-tailed poisonous bee gu flew out and began attacking the corpse beetles.
Any corpse beetles it attacks fall to the ground like dead flies.
Sheng Po said to Gu Xiao, "Uncle Gu Xiao, I'll get rid of the corpse beetles at the door right away. You take Chu Chu and rush out the door."
Gu Xiao replied urgently, "No! I think I'm hallucinating. I feel like there are blood-red corpse beetles all around me, and I can't tell which way is the doorway. There's also a river under my feet. What's going on? My legs and arms are weak, and I can't carry Chu Chu!"
Upon hearing Sheng Po's voice, Gu Chuchu burst into tears.
She sobbed, "Ah Po, I'm having really bad hallucinations too! I'm so scared! If I get bitten, will I die?"
Her crying broke Sheng Po's heart!
With a flick of his sleeve, a row of hidden weapons appeared between his fingers.
He aimed at the dense swarm of corpse beetles and shot!
The hidden weapon was poisoned.
All the corpse beetles that were shot fell to the ground, but there were just too many of them, like swarms of wasps, no, even more than wasps.
Sheng Po shouted loudly to Gu Xiao and Gu Chuchu, "Cover your mouths and noses! I'm going to release poison gas!"
Gu Xiao and Gu Chuchu quickly shrank back under the covers, holding their breath.
The people outside retreated even further.
Sheng Po held his breath, took out a small medicine bottle from his pocket, and unscrewed the cap.
A pale yellow gas drifted out of the bottle opening.
As the gas gradually filled the air, the corpse beetles swayed unsteadily, as if they had drunk fake alcohol, and stopped attacking Gu Xiao and Gu Chuchu.
Sheng Po rushed to Gu Chuchu's side, picked her up, and ran towards the door.
He rushed a long way before putting Gu Chuchu down.
Gu Chuchu's face turned bright red.
She gasped for breath, crying as she shouted to Sheng Po, "My dad! My dad's still inside! Please go save him!"
Sheng Po patted her head, "Don't move around."
He then turned to the bodyguards and said, "Protect her well."
Before the bodyguard could respond, Sheng Po quickly returned to the room, picked up Gu Xiao, who was wrapped in a blanket, and walked out!
He was handsome with delicate features and a tall, slender build, yet he carried the 1.9-meter-tall tough guy Gu Xiao with ease.
He carried Gu Xiao out and shouted to the hotel security guards, "Quick! Close the door! Suffocate those corpse beetles!"
The security guards still dared not approach.
Sheng Po kicked out and hooked his foot onto the doorknob, slamming the door shut.
The door slammed shut!
Sheng Po carried Gu Xiao and walked quickly to Gu Chuchu, then put Gu Xiao down.
Gu Chuchu, wrapped in a blanket, cried out, "Apo, I'm scared! I still feel like there are so many corpse beetles all around me trying to bite me! Am I hallucinating?"
Sheng Po took out a medicine bottle from his other pocket, poured out three small red pills, and put them into her mouth, saying, "Hold them in your mouth, don't swallow. The hallucinations will disappear in about ten minutes."
He didn't give it to Gu Xiao.
He was waiting for Gu Xiao to beg him.
Gu Xiao remained silent.
He felt weak all over and leaned against the wall, wrapped in a blanket.
Even after being carried out, he still felt surrounded by blood-red corpse beetles, baring their sinister teeth as if to bite him.
He was hallucinating, but his hearing wasn't a big problem. His ears felt stuffy, like he was wearing headphones, but he could hear what Sheng Po was saying to Gu Chuchu.
He waited for Sheng Po to come and feed him the medicine.
But after waiting and waiting, it never arrived.
Gu Xiao immediately cursed, "You brat, are you deliberately putting on airs?"
Sheng Po said, "Uncle Gu Xiao, the debt of saving my life is greater than heaven. I saved your life today, so you don't need to repay me. I just want someone from you."
