Chapter 123: Seclusion
Chen Haiming nodded, his face was a little solemn, he looked at the watch on his wrist, and a trace of worry flashed between his eyebrows.
What happened last night made him very worried.
"Either way, you have to hold it down." Chen Haiming took a deep breath.
Today is a meeting of their company's shareholders.
This shareholders' meeting was jointly organized by their board of directors, and they were ready to take this opportunity to expel him from the board of directors and completely deprive him of his position.
They had premeditated.
"Xiaoyu, you go to sleep in the room first. When he comes back, I'll call you. Xiao Se gently stroked Xiaoyu's long hair and said dotingly.
"Hmm." Xiaoyu lay on the bed obediently and covered the quilt.
Xiao Se left.
He didn't rush to the shareholders' meeting right away.
Instead, I came to the vicinity of Jiangnan University.
At the beginning, Liu Hao's father, Liu Tao, studied in Jiangzhou City, and finally failed to start a business, resulting in bankruptcy, owing huge debts, and then chose to return to Liujia Village to live in seclusion.
Xiao Se followed the trail left by Liu Tao and came to the village of Liu Tao's hometown.
"Huh?" Xiao Se suddenly stopped, and his eyes fell on the mouth of the cave at the end of the village.
There's quirkiness here.
He felt an eerie ripple coming from the mouth of the cave.
"Interesting." Xiao Se smiled indifferently and walked towards the mouth of the cave.
Walking into the cave, you are greeted by a pungent rancid smell.
It's the rotting smell of corpses.
"Someone died." Xiao Se's eyes were cold, and he saw a corpse lying sideways in the cave, the body had shriveled and cracked skin, apparently caused by poison.
Xiao Se checked it and found that the cause of death of the corpse was Gu poison!
The source of the poison is in this corpse.
Xiao Se looked into the cave.
The cave is dark, damp, and cold.
"There's a body in there." Xiaoyu said, walking inside.
She went inside and saw a corpse.
"Dad!" Xiaoyu exclaimed in fright and hurriedly ran over.
"Dad, who is this?" Light rain cries.
"His name is Wu Guangchuan, he is an employee of Liu's Group, he worked overtime too late last night, suddenly fainted in the middle of the night, and after being sent to the hospital for rescue, he was already critically ill, and now he ......" Liu Hao shook his head and sighed.
Although their Liu family was poor and destitute, but they were prosperous, they suffered such misfortune.
I saw that next to Wu Guangchuan, there was a bug the size of a baby's fist, lying on Wu Guangchuan's body, sucking Wu Guangchuan's blood, its whole body was black, and the surface of its body was glowing with green light, exuding a disgusting rancid smell, which was creepy.
"This ...... Could it be Gu poison? Liu Hao looked at this little insect and was a little shocked.
"Gu poison?" Xiao Se frowned, he glanced at Wu Guangchuan, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
"Gu poison is a special toxin." Xiao Se explained, "Once poisoned, it will slowly erode the body organs of the poisoned person, and eventually turn into pus, which is very cruel and cruel, and will only live to be eight years old in a lifetime." ”
"So serious?" Liu Hao's face also changed when he heard Xiao Se's words.
"This is just the beginning, if the time drags on, I'm afraid it will be ......" Xiao Se snorted lightly.
This kind of Gu poison, in his eyes, is simply weak.
He had killed countless people, and he had also studied this kind of Gu poison, and he had even used these Gu worms to breed poisonous snakes and poisonous scorpions, which were much stronger than this larvae.
"Don't be afraid, we'll take him to the hospital right now, and I'll take him well." Xiao Se comforted Xiaoyu.
"Thank you, Cersei." Xiaoyu looked at Xiao Se with tears in her eyes.
"You're welcome." Xiao Se patted her on the shoulder, turned and walked outside.
Light rain followed.
Liu Hao stood in place, deep in thought.
"Gu poison ......" Liu Hao recalled in his mind that in a magazine he read when he was a child, he mentioned a Gu master, it is said that Miao Jiang Gu Master is good at using Gu worms and can control Gu worms.
And......
It is said that a Gu master with superb Gu skills can cast a thousand strange Gu techniques.
"It seems ......" Liu Hao's pupils shrank, and he thought of a Gu technique-Soul Devouring Gu.
He once read this magazine, which introduced a Gu master who had the ability to manipulate Gu insects, and it was said that Gu masters were able to control a group of Gu insects and attack the enemy.
The power of these Gu worms can be called devastating.
Xiao Se quickly rushed to the door of Liu Tingting's house.
"Brother Xiao!"
A group of teenagers were playing, and when they saw Xiao Se, they were immediately excited and hurriedly surrounded them.
"Brother Xiao, you're finally out of the customs!"
"During your retreat, we were all worried about you."
Everyone said babblingly.
Xiao Se nodded and said, "You continue to practice and strive to make a little progress, I will evaluate you." ”
"Okay." Everyone nodded their heads and was excited.
Xiao Se looked at Li Xue and Gu Yulan again.
Li Xue is still as beautiful as a fairy, but between her eyebrows, she reveals exhaustion, as if she has endured a lot of pain, while Gu Yulan's face is pale and her mental state is very poor, as if a gust of wind blows, she is about to pass out.
"I'll take you inside the house to rest." Xiao Se pulled the two up.
A group of three people entered Liu Tingting's house.
Liu Tingting's parents have been notified by Liu Tingting, and they have already prepared a meal and waited.
As soon as Xiao Se waved his hand, a plate of delicacies from the mountains and seas appeared on the table, filling the table with mouthwatering.
Xiaoyu's eyes lit up.
"Sit down." Xiao Se pointed to the dining table and smiled, "How about trying my mother's craftsmanship." ”
Everyone sat down, Liu Hao, Gu Yulan, and Xiaoyu sat on the left and right.
"It's a really lively day." Xiao Se sighed, and then took out his chopsticks.
"Brother Xiao, you've been in retreat for so long, are you okay?" Wang Xiaojun asked.
"It's fine." Xiao Se calmly ate with vegetables.
"That's good." The crowd breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Se looked at the appearance of everyone eating, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, this is the true appearance of the cultivation world, he has seen too much ugliness and greed of human beings in the world of cultivating immortals, and only then did he understand the four words of human nature.
"Xiao Se, when you come back this time, are you going to leave Jiangzhou, or are you going to stay?" Liu Hao suddenly asked, his tone a little apprehensive, "I heard that the disciples of the Immortal Cultivation Sect will select a group of disciples to go to the Southern Regions every few years to practice. ”
"I don't want to go to the Southlands." Xiao Se shook his head, "I'm in Jiangzhou, it's fine." ”
"Are you interested in working in our company? Our company is in need of some excellent talents, and I am willing to hire you! Liu Hao looked at Xiao Se with burning eyes.
Xiao Se looked up at Liu Hao, looking at his handsome face, the corners of his mouth outlined a touch of mockery.
"I think, Mr. Liu, you seem to have forgotten what you promised me." Xiao Se looked at Liu Hao indifferently.
"Brother Xiao, you misunderstood, I haven't forgotten, I have always kept this matter in mind, I will work hard and try my best to earn money to support my wife and children." Liu Hao coughed awkwardly, and then said eagerly.
