The last disciple who traveled through Medicine King Valley sells goods live
Chapter 236 Don’t Be Superstitious
Jiang Ningming's mouth twitched when he heard this: "Then why are you so arrogant and say you're not afraid of others?"
Shanshan glared at Jiang Ningming and pretended to be angry, "Why, can't I be a little more confident? Although I'm not a cultivator, my abilities are not to be underestimated. With Yuchi Lan's limited skills, he might not be able to do anything to me."
Liu Zhecheng on the other end of the line quickly chimed in, "Jiang Ningming, don't underestimate Shanshan. Her abilities can't simply be measured by level. Take those dangerous situations we encountered before, for example. An ordinary third-rank cultivator might not have been able to handle them as well as Shanshan."
Jiang Ningming scratched his head and chuckled, "I'm just worried about Shanshan. Hearing you say that, I feel much more relieved. But Shanshan, can you tell me, what magical effects do those little spells of yours have?"
Shanshan smiled helplessly and said, "Some of my spells can heal illnesses and save lives, some can be used to sense abnormalities around you, and some can be used to defend yourself at critical moments. Compared to the spells of monks, they may not be as fancy, but they are more practical."
Jiang Ningming's eyes lit up as he curiously asked, "Can it be used to fly? Just like in the fairy tales, flying on a sword, how majestic."
Shan Shan couldn't help but laugh out loud. "You kid, you're just dreaming of unrealistic things. My spells don't have that ability. However, when you learn Qinggong, you'll be able to fly over rooftops and walls to a certain extent."
"Really? That's great!" Jiang Ningming was so excited that he almost lost his grip on the steering wheel and quickly focused on driving again.
Yuchi Lan, Yuchi Wei? Shanshan memorized these two names. She felt she needed to learn more about this family.
At this moment, Liu Zhecheng's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Liu Zhecheng's voice came from the headset: "Shanshan, we've determined the approximate range of the black-clad men's activities and found some clues related to that mysterious formation. However, this formation seems extremely complex, and we need more time to research a solution."
After a moment's thought, Shanshan said, "Well, this formation combines ancient sorcery with modern technology, making it quite tricky. You must be careful and not act rashly. By the way, have you found any information about that 'wizard'?"
Liu Zhecheng said seriously, "Not yet. This 'wizard' is very mysterious, and we are still investigating it with all our strength. Shanshan, if you have any ideas or suggestions, please feel free to tell us."
Shanshan thought for a moment and said, "Although I don't know what that formation is for, judging by their conversation, it can't possibly be good. My suggestion is that the formation is too sinister.
Furthermore, my senior sister told me that she heard them chatting last night, saying that the formation wasn't yet complete, and that they seemed to be searching for some crucial key point. Even so, the formation was already incredibly powerful. We absolutely couldn't let them continue with the construction.
Therefore, it is best to control those men in black first, and then determine the scope of the formation. Then we can further understand what kind of formation this is. "
Liu Zhecheng heard this and said, "I've thought of what you said. Don't worry, I've already contacted the higher-ups. They'll send someone to take over when the time comes."
Shanshan seemed to have thought of something and said to Liu Zhecheng, "No matter what, no one can enter before we know for sure how to break the formation. Not only will they lose their lives, but it might also increase the power of the formation."
Liu Zhecheng smiled. "It seems Shanshan has guessed it. You told me last time that someone in the special operations team might have been infiltrated. I was investigating this matter recently, and then I suddenly became very busy.
It's obvious they don't want me to investigate. Since you called me this time, I'm pretty sure. So I took this opportunity to break out. Don't worry, even though I don't have the power over there anymore, it doesn't mean I don't have anyone else to use."
Hearing this, Shanshan felt relieved: "In that case, you guys should be careful."
After hanging up the phone, looking at Jiang Ningming's curious eyes, Na Shanshan said helplessly: "Actually, I don't think there will be any consequences if I tell you about these things. But people here seem to particularly like to keep such things secret."
You know, in ancient times, there were the Imperial Observatory and the Imperial Master.
Plus, Medicine King Valley does have esoteric arts. So, in Shanshan's cognition, esoteric arts and the like are quite normal things. Shanshan never thought that esoteric art masters were anything special.
The truth is, in Medicine King Valley, everyone has their own talents to work on. Mystical arts are indeed powerful, but they're also the easiest to spot from above. It's better for others to just be happy and free.
However, Shanshan also knew to adapt to local customs. Everyone in this world was keeping things secret, and she didn't want to be the one sticking out. After all, her identity was somewhat shady. If no one else was talking about it, and you were the only one showing off, who else would they arrest?
Thinking that Jiang Ningming already knew a lot, there was no point in hiding it any longer, so he simply said:
"Regarding this aspect, I think you could read some information about Taoist priests. To be honest, I only know a little about it. Not much more than you do. You know me, I only know a few small talismans at the beginning."
Jiang Ningming thought for a moment and asked, "Is that formation you just mentioned real?"
That Shanshan said: "Well, actually, you have come into contact with formations before. The last time was at An Qingjie's hometown."
Jiang Ningming suddenly realized: "So, that group of people who went to An Qingjie's house before, they, they are all?"
That Shanshan nodded. "Quan Fei is from the special operations team. He found those people. Actually, I don't know them either. Xiao Ning, these things sound simple, but they are actually quite complicated.
Whether it was the mystical arts or the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams, they had always existed. It was just that ordinary people had no use for them. Moreover, since ancient times, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
Isn't it a form of protection if we don't let ordinary people know about it?"
Jiang Ningming still felt a little humiliated: "So, the country really has this kind of special department? Isn't it said that we should not be superstitious?"
That Shanshan smiled: "Yes, they said not to be superstitious, but they didn't say you shouldn't believe it. The country has always believed in these things.
Shanshan continued to explain, "You see, our country has always advocated for the promotion of traditional culture. Classics like the I Ching contain a wealth of esoteric arts and knowledge of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams. This is actually a form of recognition and inheritance of traditional culture. However, if these things are exploited by people with ill intentions, they can cause harm, so special departments are needed to manage and respond. At the same time, we must also prevent the public from becoming overly superstitious and causing unnecessary panic."
Jiang Ningming nodded, not quite understanding. "Shanshan, after hearing what you said, I think I understand a little. So, what exactly is the purpose of this mysterious formation we are facing now?"
Shanshan frowned and pondered for a moment. "Judging from the current situation, this formation definitely has bad intentions. I heard from my senior sister that it incorporates ancient evil magic. It is very likely used to achieve some evil purpose, such as summoning evil forces, absorbing life energy, etc. However, the details will have to wait for Liu Zhecheng and others to further investigate."
Jiang Ningming shuddered. "So scary? Then we have to stop them quickly. Shanshan, do you think we can do it?"
Shan Shan patted Jiang Ningming's shoulder and said soothingly, "Don't worry, Xiao Ning. Liu Zhecheng and the others are already investigating with all their might, and we're not completely helpless. I'll work with them to figure out a solution, and we'll definitely be able to stop the villains' plot."
The car continued to move, but Jiang Ningming's mood remained unsettled for a long time. As he drove, he recalled Shanshan's words and gained a deeper understanding of this mysterious world.
At the same time, Liu Zhecheng and Mu Yuchen returned to the temporary base and immediately gathered a group of experts in mysticism and high technology to begin in-depth research on the collected formation clues.
"Captain Liu, these runes and marks look very ancient and seem to be related to some legendary evil ritual." An expert said, pointing to the picture.
"Is there any way to crack it?" Liu Zhecheng asked anxiously.
The experts looked at each other in confusion. One of the older experts slowly said, "Captain Liu, this formation is too complex. We need more time and clues to find a way to crack it. Also, we need to learn more about that 'wizard'. Perhaps he knows the key to the formation."
Liu Zhecheng nodded, his brow furrowed. "Okay, everyone, please work hard and find a way to break the formation as soon as possible."
After saying that, Liu Zhecheng looked at Mu Yuchen and said, "Muzi, I'm afraid I can't leave for the time being. I'll have to trouble you to look after Shanshan for the time being."
Mu Yuchen nodded: "I understand, I can't help here. But, Liuzi, tell me, you are right about Shanshan, right?"
Liu Zhecheng smiled bitterly: "You also know that it is impossible for us."
Mu Yuchen sighed: "No more talking, you stay safe here, I will be at Shanshan's villa unless there are any accidents. Feel free to contact me if you have anything."
Liu Zhecheng nodded: "Okay."
