64: Chapter 64 Ant Nest 64: Chapter 64 Ant Nest For instance, take the owner of the villa who is watering plants with a hose. To Lin Xiaosu, he is definitely worth pondering over. He knows that when the water in the hose reaches this level of intensity, the force would be significant. Most people would need to hold on with considerable strength, but this middle-aged man seems to handle it effortlessly. For instance, there is an old man carrying a bundle of firewood who looks frail and has his hands covered in calluses. However, upon closer inspection, these calluses were not formed from chopping wood for long periods. The parts of the hands that wear from holding a woodcutting axe are different from those from holding a dagger. For instance, the young man sitting outside playing with his smartphone looks different from the middle-aged man. If judged solely by appearances, this family that appears to span three generations might have a lineage so twisted it’s impossible to trace their true ancestry. There are also a few others who seem to have grown accustomed to life on the farm, all carrying the distinct aura of rural folk. But, if one possesses the Heavenly Tao Wisdom Eye, one could see the seeds of doubt sown within them... If his eyes are not mistaken, if his sixth sense hasn’t deceived him. These people, all of them are Genetic People! The situation is dire! He practices Ancient Martial Arts, but when it comes to actual combat, who is superior? The Genetic People or an Ancient Martial Inheritor? Apart from shaking hands with Dongzi, signaling a message “I, Lin Xiaosu, am very powerful, it is not wise to kill and silence me,” he has no record of direct combat. Therefore, he has no intention of gambling on this. Fortunately, there’s absolutely no need for him to gamble on this. Knowing how to leverage others is the fundamental reason why a clever person can live to the age of eighty... The setting sun dips in the west, and Yuntai Mountain slowly disappears into the twilight. In the distant sea, atop an island, a high mountain peak, piercing the sky like a sharp sword. As the sun has just sunk below the horizon, the stars illuminate a small courtyard. Red flowers and green plants within the garden, clean and elegant. A swing sways gently in the sea breeze. On the swing, a beautiful woman with flowing hair; perhaps only when she’s sitting on the swing is she truly relaxed, for she is Sister Changye, a person whose hair cannot roam free in the Great Thousand World. Why? Her hair is a deadly weapon; every strand carries lethal poison. Opposite her, there’s another woman. She looks petite and curvy, possibly a scrupulous diet follower. But if you examine her closely, you’d know that the idea “To maintain a figure, one must control what they eat and exercise often” is complete nonsense. Because she has never restrained her mouth. Even now, in this small yard, after dinner, she still stuffs her mouth with grapes. And she has something to say, “Sister Changye, have you deciphered that mutated orchid from Lao Mountain last time? Is it possible to create a genetic splice with grapes?” Sister Changye is at a loss for words, “You’re still thinking about making grapes as big as watermelons?” “Mhm, think about it, if grapes were that big, could I finish off three big plates each time I come here? Just give me one and it’s sufficient. You wouldn’t have to guard against me like guarding against a thief.” “You really can’t grasp the main point. You think I’m guarding against you because I can’t bear to part with these grapes? I’m afraid that you, who knows not of moderation, will eat up my genetically cultivated grapes!” The mention sparks Xinyue’s interest, “Hey, why don’t you let me try one of those Genetic Grapes? Just one...” “Scram! I’ve already said, even I haven’t fully analyzed the genes in these grapes. You dare to try it, aren’t you afraid of a sudden genetic mutation inside your body?” “A mutation would be even better! There are many things I fear; I’m scared of breaking rules, scared of deductions, scared of that old man from the Reserve Chapter scouring through files, but I’m not scared of genetic mutations...” Sister Changye shakes her head lightly, “I’m done with you. Everyone is so cautious with genetic experiments, but to you, it’s like a grand adventure. I promised your grandfather that I would keep you alive, so I’m not going to join you in your craziness.” “Tsk! Does everything you promise always happen? You also promised to find me a man to test the waters—did you?” “My goodness, that’s even crazier...” Sister Changye responds, “Let’s not talk about something so outrageous. I asked you to check up on Lin Xiaosu, did you?” “I did! Ever since his name was registered in the business system, I’ve been following your instructions and checked up on him. I must say, this guy has made quite a splash in the civilian world. He’s started playing his hands in Fengcheng...” Go on... Charge someone three thousand for finding a dog! Demanding a hundred thousand for catching a cheater! Tell me, is that something a person should do? This kid is solely fixated on money. Inquiring indirectly, it seems the kid has been behaving, honestly walking down another path. Now he’s frantically saving for a dowry. With the way he’s scrupulously saving money, he’ll have enough soon, and maybe he’ll actually find a wife. After all, in this utterly degenerate world, as long as one has money, not to mention a somewhat handsome scoundrel like him, even an old man who can’t prop up his ‘little brother’ with concrete can still find a bride. “Keep calling him a scoundrel... Has he done anything scoundrel-like?” Chang Ye asks casually. Xinyue gets fired up, jumping up, “During such an intense battle that day, he even didn’t forget to take a jab at my ‘grandmother.’ Just from that one instance, isn’t it enough to prove his rogue nature?” Sister Changye looks at her with an expression of teeth-aching annoyance. Do you plan to hold onto this folly forever? Reading her expression, Xinyue adds, “If we must have proof, his actions have already provided it. He’s been overly intimate with a girl named Miao Ruolan at the Detective Agency, fireworks erupting daily. Moreover, there seems to be signs of ‘fireworks’ spilling outside... There’s also a policewoman named Zhou Mei. They’ve been seen walking and shopping together, with indications that their next ‘firework display’ might ignite under the weeping willows of the Yishui waterfront...” “Zhou Mei?” Chang Ye is faintly startled, “That recent 5.16 major case in Fengcheng, does she have anything to do with it?” “Are you focused on Zhou Mei? What does Zhou Mei amount to? You should be paying attention to Miao Ruolan. Do you know who Miao Ruolan is? An Ancient Martial Inheritor! One day, I will definitely have a fight with her...” Sister Changye looks surprised, “Why do you want to fight her?” “See, you’re thinking in the wrong direction again, aren’t you? You think I’m competing with her to get beaten up? I just want to verify, this so-called Ancient Martial Arts, who’s stronger, us Genetic People or them?” Suddenly, Sister Changye lifts her hand quickly, grabbing a pair of glasses from the coffee table. With the glasses on, the scene before her seems to transform. Among the star-studded sky, ripples spread out in circles... Daxia Country! Dingxi Province! Jianghe County! Yuntai Mountain Scenic Area! It probably took only five seconds to precisely locate the caller’s position... The caller, little Su. The swing under Chang Ye’s buttocks suddenly stopped, and her hair floating midway also slowed down abruptly. This was an eerie scene. Xinyue sprang up: “Who’s calling?” “It’s him!” “Damn! Lin Xiaose...” Chang Ye waved her hand gently, and Xinyue instantly shut up... A smile slowly appeared on Chang Ye’s face, and as she answered the phone, she said, “I thought you had forgotten about me.” “You could be forgotten under normal circumstances, but clearly tonight is no ordinary night,” came a calm and clear voice from the other end. “What’s the situation?” “...” Chang Ye’s face suddenly changed, and she got down from the swing set. “Wait there, don’t do anything! We’re coming right over!” “...” “Alright! Don’t worry!” Chang Ye ended the call, the light flickering in her eyes, “If nothing goes wrong, we’ve found an Ant Nest! And it seems like a big one!” Ant Nest... A specialized term... Xinyue was confused: “An Ant Nest! He found it? How... how can an Ant Nest be so easy to find? How could he, an adjunct member, possibly find one?” An Ant Nest is a secret base of foreign forces within one’s own country. It’s a place that Qianlong has always been committed to searching for. Many Qianlongs never find one in their whole lives. Many Qianlongs die on the route of searching. It can be said that discovering an Ant Nest means a great service to the country. Even for a regular Qianlong Gold Medal, this is a significant achievement! As a Reserve, Xinyue dreams of being officially recognized; if she found an Ant Nest, not even 88, that old immortal, could keep her down. Therefore, Xinyue’s greatest obsession lately has turned to finding an Ant Nest by any means necessary. But how cunning are those “ants”? Were they that easy to find? They often lay out many years of planning, creating layers of defense, all kinds of camouflage; the process of searching is itself a process of hunting and counter-hunting... Tonight, this adjunct member who had already declared no chance with Qianlong, actually found one? How is it possible? Why did he put in such toilsome effort? For a moment, Xinyue’s brain, which normally worked quickly, seemed to freeze. Theoretically, Lin Xiaosu had completely shifted his life’s path and should no longer cross paths with Qianlong, but he had put in this effort; doesn’t it mean this guy hasn’t given up after all? Thinking of this, Xinyue felt a bit of excitement too. She was not one to just accept the situation as it is. When Lin Xiaosu was around, she was repeatedly suppressed by him, groped her chest, oh no, attacked her chest with a knife in battle, shone with brilliance on Lao Mountain, making the prestigious Xinyue look dim. All these were blows to her self-proclaimed “strongest Reserve in history.” But did Xinyue comply? Hell no! She would not accept this! But a single paper decision had turned her discontent in another direction. She was dissatisfied with the judgment! Tonight, if this guy achieves a great feat and returns to the track of Qianlong, then it would be worth looking forward to—I’ll use the eighteen new techniques I’ve learned to crush you until you beg for “mercy”... Let’s go! Reunite at Yuntai Mountain!
