Chapter 443: The Machine That Stops Turning
followed Xu Lu to Old Man Xu's study, it was strange that every time he came here during this time, Xu Lu was at home. Ye Huang asked curiously, "Is your university also on vacation?"
Ye Huang took the initiative to talk, Xu Lu was a little surprised, she hurriedly replied: "Yes, not only universities, middle schools and primary schools, but even large and small companies in Chongqing City, it can be said that they have already taken a holiday. This situation has been going on for almost a week, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that the economy of Chongqing City will be paralyzed. ”
Glancing at the snow in the courtyard outside the corridor, which was already able to reach people's knees, and the goose feather snow that was still falling from the sky, Ye Huang's heart was a little doubtful and anxious.
Xu Lu said: "It is said that this kind of heavy snow is unlikely to be encountered once in decades. ”
It's not just the snow that makes this happen, humans are extremely adaptable creatures. If the environment changes, then adapt to it, and if you can't adapt to it, change it, no matter what the consequences, at least for now.
If it's just snow, there are thousands of ways to solve it, such as shoveling snow, sprinkling salt on the road, manual snow removal, and even directly blowing away the snow clouds condensed in the sky with **, there are many ways. There is no such situation as this, where all company schools are closed and suspended.
Ye Huang believes that the reason why this is the case now is because everyone is in danger.
Whether it is the evolution potion, or the people who have become berserk by using the evolution potion, although it has not yet been clearly made public, every ordinary person has a vague sense of something in their hearts, they are afraid of going out, and they are afraid that they will encounter accidents after going to a crowded place.
Before the heavy snow fell, the whole Chongqing City was like a machine that had already turned, because the others did not stop, so despite the fear in their hearts, they still managed to continue their daily life step by step.
Now, the snow is an opportunity to stop the machine.
Once stopped, it would take a great deal of courage on the part of everyone to get the machine to turn again, and it was clear that the citizens of Chongqing, who were overshadowed by fear, did not have that courage now.
"Xu Lu, since the school has been closed, don't go out during this time, just stay at home with peace of mind. Ye Huang also reminded Xu Lu.
"Grandpa has already told me, and he said that those illegal organizations in Chongqing City are very arrogant and domineering, so I should not go out. However, Brother Li Ye is fighting against those illegal organizations, and when Brother Li Ye suppresses those illegal organizations, presumably Chongqing City will return to its former peace. Xu Lu said.
It seems that Li Ling doesn't know the truth of the whole incident, and Old Man Xu protects her very well.
Since it was Old Man Xu's decision, Ye Huang naturally didn't want to reveal anything to her.
Wouldn't it be a happy thing to be kept in the dark all the time without suffering any harm?
Two minutes later, Ye Huang and Xu Lu walked outside Master Xu's study.
Xu Lu retreated here, she knew that when her grandfather was talking to someone, she didn't like to listen to it.
Ye Huang walked into the study, and Old Man Xu was reading a medical book while sorting out some of the medicinal materials he had put on the desk.
Glanced at the medical book, asked about the medicinal materials, and then picked up the pen and wrote something on the paper, the whole person was so focused that he didn't even notice that Ye Huang walked into the study.
Ye Huang shouted Xu senior, and he reacted.
"Oh, you're here. Old Man Xu put down the medical skills and medicinal materials in his hand.
Ye Huang asked curiously, "Senior Xu, what are you doing here?"
"People are old, they are old, and the medicinal properties and usage methods of some out-of-the-way medicinal materials are about to be forgotten, so why don't you review it, otherwise you will forget the craftsmanship of eating." Old Man Xu said self-deprecatingly.
Ye Huang saw that what Old Man Xu was reading was a book "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases", a medical book handed down by the medicine king Sun Simiao, which is still an important document for many doctors to learn and refer to, which shows how admirable the wisdom of the predecessors is.
"Senior Xu, you asked Xu Lu to call me over, but ...... Did the Five Poisons Sect respond?" Ye Huang asked directly.
"Yes, that's good. ”
Ye Huang was very surprised, and said that the people of the Five Poisons Sect of Yundian do not interact with people from the outside world, and rarely leave the Yundian area, although Old Man Xu has a way to contact the people of the Five Poisons Sect, but from here to Yundian, it will take three or five days to go back and forth at the earliest, how can there be a response so quickly?
Seeing Ye Huang's expression, Old Man Xu said: "I originally thought it would take some time, but the matter here in Chongqing City has already attracted the attention of the world's martial arts, whether it is the famous and decent sects of the Seven Great Sects, or the outliers in the rivers and lakes like the Five Poisons of the Tang Sect, it is no exception. The elder of the Five Poisons Sect that I know happened to come to Chongqing City yesterday, so I was able to reply to you so quickly. ”
"What is the result?" Ye Huang asked impatiently.
"That elder of the Five Poisons Sect once owed me a favor, and in exchange, he was willing to check on the situation with that friend of yours. Old man Xu said.
Ye Huang cautiously bowed to Master Xu and thanked him, and said: "Thank you Senior Xu, this favor you use is what I Ye Huang owes you, if you need it in the future, Ye Huang will definitely do his best to help Senior Xu." ”
"Hahaha......" Old Man Xu suddenly held his beard and smiled: "I can make the closed disciples of the Great Zen Master Pu Nian owe the old man a favor, and it seems that he has made a lot of money if he does the math." ”
Before Ye Huang's identity was announced, just by virtue of his cultivation and talent in today's martial arts, it was enough to attract all forces to curry favor with him, and after everyone knew that his master was the great Zen master Pu Nian of the Dharma Academy, his status was even higher.
It is no exaggeration to say that many sect forces wish that Ye Huang would have something to ask them now, so that Ye Huang owes them a favor, and this favor can often become a huge wealth in the future.
"So, when did the elder of the Five Poisons Sect promise to meet with us?" Ye Huang asked.
Old Man Xu took out a small wooden box from the drawer, this box was no more than the size of a palm, and the surface was coated with a layer of black paint, exuding a kind of stench.
"If you take this box and open it at twelve o'clock tonight, you will naturally know the arrangement of the elder of the Five Poisons Sect. “
