"Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough--"

Just as Zhu Rui was about to say the name, he suddenly started coughing violently, and large mouthfuls of blood gushed out of his mouth, making it impossible for him to utter another word.

His breathing became rapid and disordered. Zhu Rui stretched out his only remaining hand towards Chen Chong, trying to grab him.

Chen Chong stepped forward quickly, and the moment he held Zhu Rui's hand, Zhu Rui's pupils dilated, his body began to twitch violently, his head tilted, and he died.

"You're going to die now?"

Chen Chong found it a little hard to believe, but Zhu Rui had indeed died in front of him, and his body had even begun to become stiff. This was truly unbelievable.

The poisonous insect that was originally lying on Zhu Rui's wrist seemed to realize that its host was dead. It became active again, crawled down from his wrist, and prepared to find another host.

The sharp-eyed Chen Chong noticed the movement of the poisonous insect and ignored Zhu Rui's body. He rushed to the body, quickly took out a dagger, cut his wrist, and squeezed out the blood that had already coagulated.

Smelling the familiar smell of blood, the insect immediately changed direction, crawled towards the blood, and sucked it greedily.

Chen Chong quickly took out a small transparent bowl, covered the insect and the blood together, and pasted a talisman on the small bowl. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

If Wang Ye had not reminded Chen Chong before that this poisonous insect was related to whether they could find Mr. Yi as soon as possible, Chen Chong would have killed the insect directly.

-

In Jidu, in a deep alley where few people go.

Mr. Yi paced back and forth in the small room, his expression full of anxiety and uneasiness.

"Sir, Zhu Rui is now dead, what should I do next?"

Zhu Rui was the cauldron that Mr. Yi had carefully prepared for him, and it was the one that suited his heart the most. Now it was broken. If anything happened again, I was afraid that I would be in big trouble.

"If he doesn't die, the people from the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau will find this place sooner or later by following the clues. Do you want to confront them head-on now? Don't forget that the master is still sealed, and you can't rely on his power at all. And the people from the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau all have special skills, you are no match for them at all, not to mention that there is Shen Tongyu who is eyeing you covetously.

As for the Shen family, you should think carefully about how to explain this to them!"

Next to Mr. Yi, there was a man in a black robe standing with his back to him. Facing Mr. Yi's complaints, he didn't even turn his head, but just sneered contemptuously and said in a cold tone.

When mentioning the Shen family, Mr. Yi's face instantly became very ugly.

"Shen Tongyu herself didn't fall for it, and Shen Moqi didn't have the ability to take down Shen Tongyu. What does this have to do with me? They wanted to exchange Shen Tongyu's fate for Shen Moqi, but Shen Moqi himself was not up to the task. Even if I used all my tricks, it would be in vain. The failure was entirely the problem of their Shen family!"

Mr. Yi had a gloomy face, and at the end, he was filled with anger.

If it wasn't for the purpose of cooperating with the Shen family, why would he go to so much trouble to lure Shen Tongyu to Jidu?

Now, the situation that was originally very good has suddenly become so bad because of Shen Tongyu. Why did the Shen family put all the responsibility on him? He still wants to ask the Shen family for an explanation!
"Haha, I hope you can still be so tough when facing the Shen family. You should explain to them, putting Shen Tongyu in a locked coffin in an attempt to seize Shen Tongyu's luck, and the luck of the entire Shen family, what is going on!"

Without Shen Moqi, who else can the Shen family support to compete with Shen Tongyu for the position of head of the family?
Mr. Yi was completely confused, but the man in black robe saw it clearly. Who is the boss of the Shen family now? Who is the real chess piece that was abandoned?
"Well... I can't argue with those people from the Shen family, but don't you have me here, sir? Do you think the Shen family dares to do anything to you, sir?"

Mr. Yi only dared to speak arrogantly to the Shen family in front of the man in black robe. If the Shen family really appeared in front of him, he would not dare to say a single word.

The Shen family is not an existence that he can easily offend!
"The Shen family is nothing more than that! Since you have the guts to try to seize the fortune of the Shen family, why are you still worrying here? Even if one Zhu Rui dies, there are still thousands of Zhu Ruis waiting for you. The backup plan you laid out before should also come in handy. If you continue to live as Mr. Yi, you will only become the target of public criticism and you will not be able to escape. But if you change your identity and are no longer Mr. Yi, what can others do to you?

If we don't use the poisonous insects we have painstakingly obtained from Miaojiang, wouldn't that be a waste of natural resources?"

Mr. Yi has gone through untold hardships and paid many prices to obtain these things, so how could he give up easily?

"Can the Shen family really be used by me?"

The words of the man in black robe hit Mr. Yi's heart. How could he let all his previous efforts go to waste?

"That depends on your own ability. After all, if you couldn't seize such a good opportunity in the Forbidden City, who can you blame?"

The man in black robe suddenly laughed wildly, his laughter full of sarcasm and disdain.

After hearing what the man in black robe said, even though Mr. Yi had a thousand words in his heart, they were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them.

The Forbidden City is indeed a great opportunity for Minjun Group.

But how could he have expected that the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau would appear halfway? The key point is that the other party saw through the disguise of Minjun Group at a glance.

Thinking of this, Mr. Yi couldn't help but clench his fists. The great business he had worked so hard to build was ruined in an instant.

Fortunately, he still has other cards in his hand and there is still time to make a comeback.

Just like what the man in black robe said, it's just a cauldron. If one dies, we can just get another one.

Thinking of this, Mr. Yi took out his mobile phone from his pocket, flipped through the address book again and again, finally decided on a number and dialed it.

After the call was connected, Mr. Yi pretended to be relaxed and said, "Son, I'm in Gido. As you know, Minjun Group has collapsed, and I don't want to bother with it anymore. But I still have a lot of assets under my name. Come over and I'll transfer all these assets to you and your mother. From now on, it's up to you to take care of your mother..."

His tone was relaxed and natural, with a hint of helplessness and sadness in his forced smile. Between the lines, he vividly displayed the deep love of an old father for his son and wife.

If the person on the other end of the phone could see Mr. Yi's expression at this moment, he would probably praise him for his superb acting skills, and that he could fool people with just the tone of his voice.

I don’t know what the person on the other end of the phone said. After a long while, Mr. Yi hung up the phone.

On the table next to it, there was a mahogany box, and a sharp sound could be heard faintly from the box.

Mr. Yi walked forward and opened the box, only to see countless small insects fighting fiercely inside.

A look of pride appeared on his face. The insect that won in the end would be sent into the body of one of his sons, devouring the other's mind bit by bit, making the other completely his puppet.

The man in black robe watched the scene coldly. A mocking smile appeared on his face hidden in the darkness. Then he disappeared without a trace. Mr. Yi was the only one left in the room.

-

Astronomical Department.

When Fatty and the others came back, they saw Chen Chong standing in front of Zhu Rui's body in a daze.

No one expected that Zhu Rui would lose his life in such a short time.

A trace of surprise flashed across Wang Ye's face, and he flashed to Zhu Rui's body in an instant. He saw that the poisonous insect was trapped in a small bowl with a talisman on it.

"This thing chewed off one of Zhu Rui's arms, right?"

After staring at the corpse for a long time, Wang Ye finally asked.

"That's right. I was worried that the insect would eat his entire body, so I trapped it. However, it seems that the insect is particularly short of blood. I don't know if it will drink some blood if I just give it some!"

Chen Chong nodded seriously and told him everything she had observed.

"Mr. Yi used the Gu worm to control Zhu Rui. Conversely, we can also find the location of the mother Gu through this child Gu. Feed this little guy some pig blood to confuse Mr. Yi's sight!"

Since the other party was able to kill Zhu Rui with the poisonous insect, it means that they can know the whereabouts of Wang Ye and others through the poisonous insect. In this case, who knows if the other party will do something crazy when they are forced into a corner?
"Pig's blood?"

Hearing Wang Ye's words, Liu Anxian couldn't help but shout out.

It’s not that he couldn’t find pig blood, but he was worried that doing so would kill the poisonous insect.

"It's pig blood. The Gu worm can't tell what kind of blood it is, it will just suck blood based on instinct. Once this little guy sucks pig blood, the blood in its body will no longer be pure, and Mr. Yi will have no way to control this Gu worm. Moreover, this is just a juvenile Gu worm, we can use it to find the mother Gu worm!"

Wang Ye's understanding of Gu worms was not very deep, but he had also put in some effort to study them. There were contents about Miaojiang Gu worms in the ancient books of Wudang, but since the disappearance of the Miaojiang Gu King, most of the Gu worms disappeared and never appeared again.

I really don’t know what means Mr. Yi used to be able to find the poisonous insects and even make them himself.

"That's probably the situation. I believe Mr. Yi must have fed the mother Gu with his own blood, otherwise he wouldn't be able to control Zhu Rui. Pay more attention to the movements of Mr. Yi's illegitimate children recently. Mr. Yi is not the kind of person who only prepares a scapegoat for himself. His illegitimate children are his best substitutes. I really don't know who will be the next person targeted by Mr. Yi."

When it comes to Gu worms, Wang Ye went through almost all the information in the ancient books in his mind, and then gave instructions with a serious look on his face.

Zhu Rui is the first person to die at the hands of Mr. Yi, and there cannot be a second person.

"I'll make arrangements right away!"

Liu An came to his senses and immediately turned around to arrange this matter.

-

Urban Construction Office.

While everyone else was busy in the Forbidden City, Wang Siqi stayed in the Urban Construction Office, concentrating on figuring out what building to build on the site of the Minjun Building.

Because of the two dragon veins, the requirements for this target building were very high from the beginning. Wang Siqi had already drawn several versions of the blueprints, but in the end he rejected them all and never showed them to the Urban Construction Office.

Liu Ping from the Urban Construction Office has also been in a state of panic recently.

Putting aside the bombing of the Minjun Building, the number of people who came to consult him, the director of the Urban Construction Office, was almost lining up from the Urban Construction Office to the train station.

That’s not a big deal. At worst he can just use the superior’s planning as an excuse to shirk responsibility.

The key point is, what exactly is the building that is to be rebuilt here now? This is a big question.

You know, the Minjun Building and the Qianyuan Hall are facing each other from a distance and are not far from the Forbidden City. Whether in terms of geographical location or other aspects, it is a place where every inch of land is valuable.

In the past, everyone was jealous of Minjun Group for being able to build an office building here. Now that the Minjun Building is gone and Minjun Group can’t possibly make a comeback, those people naturally wanted to get a piece of the pie.

Liu Ping's office was filled with various plans, and he even wanted to find a place to hide.

Others didn't know that the land had been reserved, and they all pestered him. Although Liu Ping knew that the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau was going to build a building here, the chief architect Wang Siqi had been in the urban construction office for so long but still hadn't come up with a plan.

What exactly will this place look like in the future? Can't you at least give us a clear idea first?

Seeing Taoist Qingfeng coming, Liu Ping couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Anyway, Taoist Qingfeng and Wang Siqi are both from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau. Taoist Qingfeng probably came here for the building he was going to build, and he might even bring the blueprints with him. Thinking of this, Liu Ping couldn't help but get excited.

This meant that he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Master Qingfeng, when can we start bidding for the project here? That place has been abandoned and fenced off, and it is difficult for our urban construction office to report to the higher-ups. Besides, the land there is very expensive, and there are too many people who want to build houses there. I don't know how many people I have rejected. Can you help me and give me a definite answer so that I can know the planning there?"

Liu Ping greeted him warmly and asked Taoist Qingfeng tentatively.

"Director Liu, you've really asked the right person. I estimate that this place should be built into a tourist check-in spot. As for more details, I can't say more, we still have to wait for Comrade Wang Siqi's drawings. Just relax, don't worry, I can guarantee that this place will definitely be popular in the future!"

As popularity increases, the dragon balls will become more active, and accordingly, the dragon veins will recover faster.

Taoist Qingfeng said to Liu Ping with a smile, and at the same time took the initiative to reach out and pat Liu Ping on the shoulder to comfort him.

Liu Ping:……

Such a valuable place, in the end it is just built as a tourist check-in spot?
How much money would it cost to invest in this?
He is just the director of the Urban Construction Office and he doesn't have the authority to ask the municipal government to approve so much money.

"Master Qingfeng, I'm not trying to make things difficult for you. It's just that we are short of funds right now. I don't think we can approve this expense. Otherwise, you can submit a report and have Mr. Chen from the Security Department review it. I believe it should be approved." (End of this chapter)
