Tian Shifu delivered the blood of the poisonous scorpion to the Research Bureau the next day, no more, no less, just enough to fill half a bathtub. Jiang Luo put the blood in his office and solemnly placed Teng Bi's large knife inside.

The long black blade was lying in the blood water, and if you looked closely you could see that it was slowly absorbing the blood water. Although Jiang Luo did not say so, he was relieved to see that the blood of the poisonous scorpion was working on Teng Bi's remaining soul.

Hurry up and recover, Teng Bi.

He thought silently.

Wake up before the New Year and join us old friends for a reunion.

After Tian Shifu's collaboration with the Research Bureau, the Bureau has taken over even more work, and the twenty new recruits have been flying around to investigate paranormal incidents.

In the past two days, another strange event has been reported near the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, which has attracted a lot of attention.

The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are rich in fish, and there are many fishermen. But in the past two months, the catch has been decreasing, with fish, shrimp and crab numbers plummeting, and even Yangtze crocodiles and Baiji dolphins beginning to decline significantly, even to the point of drawing the attention of experts.

As well as the wrong amount of fish, strange things have started to happen to some of the fishermen.

It was a coincidence that the police found out about the incident. The wife of a family in a local fishing village felt that her husband was getting stranger and stranger when he returned from a fishing trip.

When the police investigated, they found out that this was not the first person who had come to the divine woman to exorcise the evil spirits in their house. The police found out that this was not the first person who had come to the house for an exorcism.

Several of the fishermen who used to go fishing on the river have gone missing.

No one knew where they had gone and their families thought they had been fishing on the river when they had not returned for a long time, not to mention the fact that no one had found their bodies.

The case soon reached Jiang Luo, and because of its importance in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze, it also attracted the attention of the leaders.

The leaders held a special meeting at the Research Bureau, during which Jiang Luo studied the information carefully.

The changes in the fishermen are well documented. The fishermen have not only changed their personalities slightly, but their appearance has changed even more. These people have been exposed to the elements for years, their skin is rough and dark, and their appearance is older than their actual age. But at some point, their appearance became younger and younger, with less grey hair and more black hair, and they all looked a decade or two younger.

But the weird thing is that the fishermen themselves are not surprised by their changes.

Jiang Luo read all the documents, and then his expression dropped.

The leader was so anxious that his mouth was dry, " Jiang Luo, what can you tell?"

Jiang Luo hesitated for a moment, "I suspect it's a blood eel."

The people around the conference table drew in a cold breath in unison, "Blood eels?!"

"How can it be a blood eel!"

"These features are too much like the blood eels," Jiang Luo whispered, rubbing his brow, "Do you remember what the female fry of the blood eels do? The female fry will rejuvenate a human when it enters their stomach and will also control their minds."

Wen Renlian frowned, his head hurting, "But didn't the leader of the blood eels become Chi You's henchman?"

"Yes," Zhuo Zhongqiu was equally incredulous, "and the features of the blood eels prove that they are deep-sea fish, and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze don't fit their habits, do they?"

Jiang Luo could not answer their questions because he himself did not know the answers.

He was silent for a moment, insisting on his judgement, "But all the symptoms of the fishermen on the data correspond to the female fry characteristics of the blood eel. Li Sha is the leader of the blood eels, and she is the only fully evolved blood eel whose conditions of existence have long since ceased to be confined to the deep sea. Her goal was to land on land and control humans, but more importantly, I haven't seen Li Sha around Chi You for a long time."

Jiang Luo's head was bowed, his expression shrouded in shadows, "The last place I saw Li Sha was on Dawu Mountain."

Their superiors had also heard of Chi You, but did not know about it or its relationship with Jiang Luo. Their attitude towards this powerful and dangerous evil spirit, which is feared by the Fatalists, is to stay clear of each other and not to cross the river.

At this, the leader asked gruffly, "Did Chi You instruct the blood eel leader to do this?"

Jiang Luo shook his head, "Not him."

It couldn't have been Chi You.

At that time on Dawu Mountain, when Chi You was trying to save his life, Jiang Luo took him and ran away alone, without seeing Ge Wuchen or Li Sha. Jiang Luo knew a bit about Li Sha, and it was likely that she had taken advantage of Chi You's injuries to run away.

It is because of this that he feels the headache.

Li Sha has a child's temperament, but is no less shrewd and ambitious. It is precisely because she is a child's temperament that she is scary; she is new to the world and capable of anything. A blood eel can be worse than a viral infection, and every second of the night, there is a danger that one more person will become a feeder or a shell for the blood eel.

The last time Li Sha was caught, it was only because he was on a cruise ship, but this time it was as difficult as finding a needle in the Yangtze River.

They met for a full day and no one came up with a suitable and useful solution.

The atmosphere in the Research Bureau was particularly depressing because of this incident, and no one was in the mood to play around. The next day at noon, Jiang Luo was looking at the fishermen's data in his office when the leader came in in a hurry, "Jiang Luo, come out with me."

Jiang Luo left the research bureau with him, not knowing what to expect, "Leader, where are we going?"

"To meet with a partner," the leader looked serious, "We can't solve the problems in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze alone, we need to call in outside help when necessary."

Jiang Luo raised his eyebrows, interested, "Who is the partner you are looking for?"

"You'll know when you get there," the leader sighed, a little worried, "It's someone you'd never expect."

Could it be Feng Li?

Jiang Luo pondered this and did not ask further questions.

The appointment with the partner took place in a quaint, upscale restaurant. As soon as the leader entered with Jiang Luo, a waitress in a cheongsam greeted them with a smile and led them to a private room.

The waitress respectfully pushed open the door, "Please come in, guests."

Jiang Luo coughs and walks in, and Jiang Luo gathers his clothes and follows him.

The room is filled with flowing water, and there is a mahogany forest that has been created to look like a real indoor landscape, with the words 'High Mountains and Flowing Water' written on a half-human-high rockery. The faint scent of flowers and tea was overwhelming, and Jiang Luo's gaze moved from the layout of the box to the table when he suddenly looked away.

The evil spirit was sitting quietly in the host's seat, looking towards the two of them with a casual smile.

Chi You ?

The leader hurriedly walked up and extended his hand, "Mr. Chi, I've heard a lot about you."

The evil ghost raised his hand to shake the leader's hand and said gracefully, "I have likewise heard a great deal about the Scientific Research Bureau."

After saying that, he looked towards Jiang Luo and smiled leisurely, " Jiang Luo, long time no see."

The leader laughed out loud, "I almost forgot, Mr Chi You and Jiang Luo, the head of our scientific research bureau, are also old acquaintances."

He was unaware of the love affair between the two men in front of him; on Jiang Luo's profile, it only showed that Chi You had been Jiang Luo's teaching assistant during his lifetime. He gestured warmly for Jiang Luo to come and sit down, "I have always heard of Mr Chi's name, and with your help this time, we will definitely be able to solve the matter in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River as soon as possible."

Jiang Luo collected his shocked expression, walked over and sat down with a sober face, looking straight at the cup of tea in front of him.

Chi You, with his hands folded against his chin, appeared to be listening attentively to the leader's words, occasionally smiling slightly or nodding his head. When the leader had spoken, his gaze shifted to Jiang Luo's and he smiled, "Does Mr Jiang have any ideas?"

Jiang Luo had already adjusted his mood and when he heard Chi You ask, he looked up with a smile, "What made Mr. Chi want to work with our Research Bureau?"

Chi You sighed softly, "The person who caused trouble in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River was one of my men, Li Sha. Not long ago, she escaped when I wasn't looking, and now that a mess has been made, I should be the one to step in and sort it out."

"What's more, you and I know each other well," he smiled, reaching out, picking up the teapot and filling it with tea for Jiang Luo, "Why do you call me Mr Chi? When I was not dead, you called me 'teacher'."

The last two words added a little more ambiguity as they were spat out from the tip of his tongue.

The leader couldn't help but look at Jiang Luo.

Why did he feel a bit strange about this statement?

Jiang Luo smiled lightly and said politely, "Mr. Chi is joking, we are working together now, so I don't want to get close to you, let's talk about business. What do you want to do with the blood eel once you've caught her?"

The evil spirit pondered for a moment, "After I catch her this time, I will hand her over to your control."

The leader was surprised, "Hand over to our control?!"

"Yes, but I also have a condition," the evil demon's eyes narrowed slightly, a nasty light hidden in his dark eyes as he slowly said, "I hope that through this time, I can forge a long-term friendly and cooperative relationship with the Scientific Research Bureau."

The Heart of the World: "The Heart of the World: The Heart of the World: The Heart of the World: The Heart of the World: The Heart of the World: The Heart of the World

The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new book.

In the original book, Bai Jinfu was an emperor's son who was stranded in the countryside and was later found and brought back to the palace to become a puppet emperor.

In the daytime, he was a high and mighty emperor, but at night, when he returned to the harem, he became the plaything of the powerful ministers.

After Bai Jinfu wears the book, the foolish beauty suddenly becomes enlightened.

Jing Yu, the Marquis of Ning'an, is a self-possessed, cold and indifferent man, the only straight male character in the original book who is not attracted to Bai Jinfu's beauty.

One day, Jing Yu brings home a young beauty who saves his life, and soon discovers that the young beauty has a unique quality of attracting butterflies.

He is rescued by the great general in a polo match, attracts the attention of the prime minister in a garden, and even goes to a Taoist temple to burn incense and meets a rare master of the state.

But the worrying thing is that the young beauty is so naive that she doesn't know how to protect herself and reject those who intend to desecrate her.

For the sake of saving his life, Jing Yu would occasionally help Bai Jinfu to chase away the few butterflies who coveted his beauty.

It wasn't long before rumours spread throughout the capital that the Marquis of Ning'an had a canary in his house, which he treated like a treasure and forbade anyone to touch.

Jing Yu had laughed at such rumours, but later he found himself really caring for Bai Jinfu and wanting to possess him more and more.

As a precaution, Jing Yu plans to accept the royal offer of marriage and send Bai Jinfu out of his house.

The night before Bai Jinfu left the palace, the two of them got very drunk and had a wild night of drinking, and when Jing Yu woke up the next day, Bai Jinfu had already left.

Jing Yu searched all over the capital but could not find Bai Jinfu, but suddenly heard that the emperor had found his long-lost seventh prince.

The Seventh Prince's return to the palace was a grand affair, with the Great General opening the way, the Prime Minister declaring the decree, and the State Master personally helping a golden figure down from a flamboyant carriage, with the three of them looking at him with the same feverish fascination.

Jing Yu stood distantly in the ranks of the hundred officials and instantly recognised that the seventh prince was no other than the canary that had flown out of his palm!

The first thing you need to do is to get the best out of your life.
