Chapter 0660 Yin Yang Ring and Mycelium
Ling Feng's monthly salary for Vivian and Tiger was 100,000 pounds per month, and Gatosha asked for a monthly salary of 200,000 pounds, which was equivalent to the monthly salary of Vivian and Tiger brothers and sisters combined. However, in terms of ability, she is indeed much better than Vivien and Tiger, and she is also worth such a monthly salary.
"I didn't really use you as a bodyguard, you cooperate with me, we each take what we need, and I don't need to pay you 200,000 pounds a month, right?" Ling Feng is not a long-haired rabbit, he is fine.
"I don't have any property, I need money to live in the UK, who am I not looking for you?" Katosha said, as a matter of course.
"You can work."
"I don't know anything but kill."
Ling Feng smiled bitterly: "Okay, since you are willing to be my bodyguard, I will give you the same remuneration as Vivian and Tiger, you can't get twice as much salary as them just because you are more capable, this is not conducive to unity." If you want, do it, and if you don't, I can't help it. ”
Gatosha hesitated, "Well, I knew I would suffer a loss when dealing with a merchant like you. ”
Ling Feng looked at her speechlessly, "Miss Gatosha, please give me a salary of 100,000 pounds a month, I am happy to suffer such a loss." ”
"Good night, let's talk about it tomorrow if you have anything to say." Gatosha said.
Ling Feng had nothing to say here. Katosha was a very special woman, but she also had an ordinary side to her - sometimes unreasonable.
In fact, in Heiwa Village, India, in the temple of the goddess Kali, if Ling Feng had killed her, he would probably have forgotten about this woman by now. But the relationship between people is so wonderful, the life and death rivals who once wanted to kill each other have now become bosses and bodyguards.
Ling Feng actually didn't pay attention to this matter, and the monthly salary was only 100,000 pounds, and he didn't care about this money now. Conversely, if Katosha can help him find Hannah, then it will be worth the amount of money spent on her.
After returning to his room, Ling Feng didn't feel sleepy at all. The stories told by Katasha kept coming to his mind, Zheng He, Hannah and the Yongle Emperor, as well as the ancients whose names he didn't even know, were like characters in a fantasy movie, and their legends were vividly interpreted in his mind. He's a spectator, but he's a part of it.
Eventually, his mind stopped again on the way Katosha told him to take off the yin and yang vows.
"The Yin and Yang Ring is called Tinder, how can it be such a strange name? Also, why is it so strange how it is extracted? What's the secret? He thought about these questions, and while he was troubled, an idea gradually came to him. Instead of trying to guess, why not give it a try?
The way Katosha told him that the way he took off the yin and yang vows was strange, and the pain was certainly unavoidable, but it was worth suffering a little more than cracking its secret.
The idea quickly matured, and Ling Feng also got up from the bed, he found a sharp scalpel, as well as a bottle of disinfectant alcohol, and an alcohol lamp. Having found all the tools to pick up the Yin and Yang rings, he entered the bathroom and began to move.
After sterilizing the scalpel, he carefully cut open a piece of skin on his right index finger near the Yin Yang Ring. The scalpel was very sharp, the flesh was as easy and smooth as cutting a turnip, and the blood flowed down the blade and the wound, dripping into the bathtub, and the red and white formed a very sharp color difference.
Ling Feng made a circle around the Yin Yang Ring, and the wound was about two millimeters deep, which was just enough to separate the epidermis of the finger from the subcutaneous tissue. According to the method described by Katasha, he also needs to make a 360-degree circle wound on the other side of the yin and yang ring, and then use a scalpel to separate the epidermis covered by the ring from the subcutaneous tissue. Once this step was completed, he also needed to cauterize the Yin and Yang Ring with an alcohol lamp to know that it turned red before he could take it off.
The steps were clear, but Ling Feng only cut one side of the circle-shaped wound and couldn't continue.
It wasn't that he couldn't stand the pain, but that he found something very strange in the wound.
When he opened the epidermis of his finger under the ring, he saw not normal subcutaneous fat or muscle tissue, but a mycelium-like substance! They penetrated the epidermis of his fingers, took "roots" in his fingers, and were already growing like a small mushroom on his right index finger!
This discovery startled him, and he was stunned for several minutes before he barely came back to his senses.
"No wonder I can't take it off, it turns out it's already connected to my flesh and blood. From this point of view, the method that Katasha said is true, and if I want to take off the yin and yang rings, I must cut off a layer of skin. However, why do you want to burn the ring, and specifically remind me to burn the yin and yang ring red? "Ling Feng understood some things, but there were also some things he didn't understand.
After thinking for a moment, he plunged his scalpel into the wound and carefully cut off a few mycelium-like substances. A cold energy was suddenly transmitted from the Yin Yang Ring, and he was suddenly "punished" and couldn't even hold the scalpel steadily, and fell directly to the ground. But what's even more bizarre is that the few "mycelium-like" substances he had just cut off actually began to recover in the blink of an eye, and with their restoration, the cold energy transmitted by the Yin-Yang Ring gradually weakened, and finally, when the mycelium-like substance was completely restored, the Yin-Yang Ring no longer released that kind of cold energy.
It was also this strange discovery that Ling Feng suddenly understood what he couldn't understand before.
"No wonder I used to be punished every time I wanted to take off the Yin Yang Ring, it turned out that it had taken root and grown on my fingers, and the cold energy it released was to repair the mycelium-like roots that I had destroyed, not some punishment!" He thought excitedly.
The Yin Yang Ring is not an intelligent creature, nor is it an intelligent computer, it definitely has no way to judge the right and wrong of Ling Feng's behavior, let alone punish Ling Feng for doing something wrong. What it does is just a kind of growth behavior similar to that of trees, where the roots of a certain place are destroyed, and it will deliver nutrients and repair the damaged root system. It's just that it's far more powerful than any plant in this regard!
"It seems that many times when I am in danger, it always injects me with a little warm energy, and it seems that this is actually a survival instinct of it. It is parasitic on my body, and when my life is in danger, it will give me energy and make me recover quickly. Ling Feng finally figured out why the Yin Yang Ring had "punished" him before, but had "helped" him a few times when he was in danger.
However, figuring out the reasons why the Yin Yang Ring would "punish" and "help" him was not enough to satisfy Ling Feng's curiosity. He didn't find the mycelium-like thing in his fingers, but now that he did, there was a new question in his mind - all kinds of signs showed that the Yin Yang Ring was not just a ring, it had an unbelievable vitality, so what was it?
"Tinder, tinder...... If you understand the Yin and Yang Ring from the perspective of its name, what kind of seed should it be, but now that this seed has taken root and grown in my body, and I have become its soil, then what will it eventually grow to? And how will I be affected? Ling Feng pondered this question in his heart, no one wanted to grow a mushroom or something on his body, and he was definitely no exception. In the past, he thought that the Yin and Yang Ring was nothing in his hand, but after discovering that it actually took root and grew in his body, he felt different.
Human beings have a natural fear of the unknown, not to mention that this unknown thing still grows on him.
After hesitating for a moment, Ling Feng picked up the scalpel that had fallen on the ground again, cleaned it with disinfectant alcohol, and then prepared to cut another circle-shaped wound on the other side of the Yin Yang Ring.
He now knew very well what Katosha had told him was doing, that cutting two circle-shaped wounds on his finger and separating the epidermis from the subcutaneous tissue was only the first step, but the most important step was to cauterize the Yin and Yang Rings so that it could not repair the destroyed mycelium-like roots. Otherwise, the person wearing the yin and yang ring will not be able to remove it unless the entire finger is cut off.
Another wound was cut open, and more blood was dripping from the bathtub.
In the new wounds, he also found mycelium-like things, which had taken root in his flesh and blood, and it was unknown where they had spread.
The next step is to cut the skin under the ring, then cauterize the ring and remove it.
However, Ling Feng hesitated.
"Wait......" he said secretly in his heart, "The Yin Yang Ring has been on my finger for two years, and I didn't feel any discomfort during this time, and it even helped me get through it several times. Am I really going to forcibly remove it at this time? ”
If he doesn't take it off, his situation won't change in any way, and he has also come over like this in the past two years, the Yin Yang Ring has not harmed his body, but has helped him tide over difficulties in several crises. So, from this point of view, the yin and yang ring is actually a good thing on his fingers. Of course, in addition to the disadvantage of having the possibility of infertility.
Take it off, and the situation is unpredictable. What it will affect is really hard to guess. After all, Ling Feng had never taken it off. His mentor Xuanjizi never mentioned this matter to him. So, from this point of view, it is actually risky to take it off rashly.
"Forget it, I'd better figure out what kind of ring the Yin and Yang Ring looks like before deciding whether to take it off or not, it's on my body, it's already a part of my body, I forcibly take it off, it's like forcibly removing an organ, in case there is any backlash, it's not good. I'd better translate my own leather book first, maybe I can find some clues about the Yin and Yang Ring from it. Ling Feng finally gave up the idea of forcibly taking off the Yin Yang Ring. He put away his tools, took out his leather book and mobile phone, and compared the content of the "Voice of Heaven Book" taken with his mobile phone to translate the contents.
This translation was also his first formal response to the human skin, and he did it carefully, word for word, and wrote down the translated content in a notebook.
The love became deeper and deeper at night, but Ling Feng didn't feel sleepy at all. He didn't realize that the wound on his right index finger was slowly healing, but there was no obvious blood scar of platelet clotting......
