Doubts and a Closed Loop
By using both truth and lies, and employing both soft and hard tactics, Zhang Xuezhou managed to pass the test with Chang Kong Yinghao and his group.
The best doctors in Western Capital City are helpless against the injuries of high- Sequence Holder, and can only slowly heal through advanced medical treatment and the body's self-healing methods. However, Zhang Xuezhou's methods can completely heal injuries, which sounds very unscientific and hard to believe.
This inevitably raises questions, and may even lead to investigations by Chang Kongyinghao and others.
But Chang Kongyinghao and the others eventually stopped thinking about it.
As long as something involves their own interests, Chang Kongyinghao and his group cannot investigate it at will.
God is a mysterious being. No believer has ever seen God, but believers worship God and even take everything to heart.
Some people think this is fantasy, others think it's someone being elevated to an unbelievable level, and still others think that God truly exists, just like humans watching the fish in a fish tank, with humans being the fish in the tank.
This involves multiple factors, including psychological ones.
However, once the secret of the 'god' is exposed, broken, or unearthed, or if the god is not real, or if Zhang Xuezhou and others find it difficult to believe, the ability to heal will ultimately be lost. This will have the greatest impact on Chang Kongyinghao and others.
No high- Sequence Holder can guarantee they will never fight or get injured in their lifetime, and the treatment of injuries is no joke.
At least for now, Chang Kong Yinghao is someone he cannot afford to touch; even the slightest loss would be unacceptable to him.
"Yueyan, do you think we should investigate this Tuer god?"
After discussing the positions of rotating chairman of the Sequence Committee and suggesting that Zhou Yueyan and others go into hiding to ambush future rebels, Chang Kongyinghao inquired about Zhou Yueyan's involvement with Tuershen.
"Why are you bothered by those petty issues in the Thousand Islands Alliance?" Zhou Yueyan complained. "We have Huang Daoxian in our country; he can't possibly worry about all that!"
"What Huang Dao Xian?"
"Oh right, you didn't come with us to the Eastern Mountain Imperial Mausoleum half a month ago. Let me tell you..."
Originally, Chang Kong Yinghao and Zhou Yueyan were discussing the God of Tu'er, but after Zhou Yueyan made a few complaints, Chang Kong Yinghao's attention shifted to Huang Daoxian.
An emperor with a head full of grass, a dangerous rotating chairmanship, a purple gladiolus causing the entire group to fall into hallucinations, and a sudden rebellion in Western Capital City —all these things give Chang Kong Yinghao a headache.
In particular, the connection to Huang Daoxian dates back over a hundred years and is also related to the Luofu Imperial Family.
The Sequence Committee is not simply dealing with some rebellious elderly Sequence Holder; it also involves far more dangerous creatures.
It wasn't just Zhang Xuezhou's treatment methods that were suspicious; many other events, such as the riots and palace rebellions, were also suspicious.
Chang Kong Yinghao frowned.
His thinking is more complex than Zhou Yueyan's, and he can also consider aspects that Zhou Yueyan has never noticed.
He vaguely sensed that there were some additional factors and tangled connections involved in the more than one hundred years of history from the Luofu Dynasty to the Scarlet Alliance State.
Huang Daoxian may be mysterious and unknowable, or he may be hiding among us, constantly causing all sorts of things.
But who is Huang Daoxian, and where does the real Huang Daoxian exist? These are things that people have never paid attention to or searched for before.
Why would the other party want to poison the emperor? And after Luo Zhong, who else was targeted by Huang Daoxian? This involves whether Chang Kongluo, Zhou Xin, and others were affected, and even involves Chang Kongyinghao, who served as chairman for several years.
Since the matter concerned himself, Chang Kong Yinghao had no choice but to consider it carefully.
"Are these ferocious insects present in our Scarlet Alliance State?"
After the communication ended, Chang Kong Yinglian, who had been listening in, couldn't help but feel somewhat worried.
A hundred years ago, all wars were fought by the higher-ups who drove the lower-ups to fight and struggle. The extent of the fighting and the number of deaths were just a series of insignificant numbers to those in power.
However, once the mode of warfare was changed, war became directly linked to the top echelons, resulting in the loss of the lives of those at the top, while ordinary people were rarely affected.
This kind of war causes unbearable pain to those at the top, but it also continuously drives the evolution of Gene Sequence.
What we are currently facing is likely another top-level war.
This is a war that has lasted for a century, and their opponents are likely to be more elusive and difficult to deal with than the treacherous insects lurking in the Thousand Islands Alliance.
"It's one thing that an old emperor like Luo Yan couldn't solve the problem, but Luo Zhong's abilities back then far surpassed ours," Chang Kong Yinghao said in a low voice. "The technology of his era wasn't that much different from ours now!"
If we disregard the technology of genetically modified crops that solve the problem of food and clothing, the superficial prosperity brought by modern architecture, and remove the advantages of convenient transportation and Gene Sequence, the extent to which contemporary technology surpasses the Louvre Dynasty is limited.
At least sixty years ago, Luo Zhong enjoyed the most advanced technological conveniences within the royal family.
Considering the resources available to him at the moment, Chang Kongyinghao felt that the average person in this era didn't possess much more than that, and Luo Zhong's strength remained a formidable obstacle for many.
Luo Zhong failed to defeat Huang Daoxian, and didn't even reveal the other's appearance. Chang Kong Yinghao felt that things were going to be difficult.
Even a case from over ten years ago is difficult to investigate. There are numerous unsolved and difficult cases piled up. Asking him to investigate a matter from over a hundred years ago would undoubtedly be very difficult, even if they mobilized the best resources.
"We must investigate all the riots and rebellions that have occurred over the past few decades," Chang Kong Yinglian said, "And see if we can find any clues among them!"
"This is one direction, but things are still difficult to investigate!"
"None of us have seen him, and we don't know what abilities he possesses. We don't know his age, gender, or appearance, so it's indeed difficult to investigate. But the impact of this matter may be greater than that of the old guys in the southeast and northwest regions!"
"If the Zodiac Immortal is a ferocious insect originating from a fire meteor, wouldn't it be possible that the Sinkhole No. 2 also harbors such insects within our Scarlet Alliance State?"
"Is the 'Tu' god behind Zhang Xuezhou related to the Sinkhole No. 2, or is it some kind of special ferocious insect?"
Chang Kong Yinghao and Chang Kong Yinglian looked at each other in bewilderment.
The exploration of the god Tu'er behind Zhang Xuezhou, then to Huang Daoxian, ultimately led them back to the god Tu'er behind Zhang Xuezhou.
"But God Tu'er is the god of the Thousand Islands Alliance," Chang Kong Yinghao said, finding it hard to understand.
"Perhaps he is impersonating God Tu'er?" Chang Kong Yinglian asked doubtfully.
"But Ren Anran went to the Thousand Islands Alliance for further studies," Chang Kong Yinghao hesitated. "Moreover, Zhang Xuezhou mentioned that the Tu'er priests also possessed this healing ability; these are all verifiable facts!"
"That..."
The matter was repeatedly questioned and scrutinized.
If it is confirmed that the priests of the Tuer people also possess this ability, the matter will be completed, thus removing Zhang Xuezhou and others from any possible connection to the ferocious insects in the Sinkhole No. 2.
