Mad Doctor No. 9

Although he said that, he still kept his eyes open.

Su Yun's appearance was too coincidental, and she even carried a faint smell of disinfectant.

Was it a coincidence?

Three days later, Wang Tian healed Shen Ming's leg.

Shen Ming was moved to tears and agreed to help him keep an eye on the other artifacts in the laboratory.

As expected, Su Yun sent Wang Tian an invitation to visit the museum and see some of her recently collected items.

Wang Tian led Zhang Qingyun, and Qin Yuwei followed.

In the underground storage room of the provincial museum, Su Yun took out several newly unearthed bronze artifacts, which were also engraved with the same symbols.

"These were all unearthed from the same tomb, so they should be from the Shang and Zhou dynasties," Su Yun said, pointing to the runes. "I've researched a lot of materials, and this is an ancient script that has never been seen before."

Wang Tian examined it carefully.

These runes were indeed the secret texts of the Dragon Gate, and most of them contained warnings about the words "Heavenly Gate" and "Divine Messenger".

Wang Tian asked, "Director Su, was there anything unusual about these artifacts when they were unearthed?"

Su Yun blinked: "Why are you asking this?"

Wang Tianping said, "It's just out of curiosity."

"That's true," Su Yun said in a low voice. "The three staff members involved in the excavation all suffer from a strange illness, similar to Shen Ming's symptoms. And there's another one... a lunatic, who keeps muttering things like 'the door is about to open' or 'God is coming.'"

She moved closer to Wang Tian, ​​a delicate fragrance wafting towards him: "Mr. Wang, do you know anything? Tell me, maybe I can help."

The two were standing very close, in a rather ambiguous posture.

Qin Yuwei frowned, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself, but Zhang Qingyun stopped her.

Wang Tian took a step back and said, "I'm just a doctor, I don't know much about this kind of thing. Director Su, if there's nothing else, we'll take our leave now."

After leaving the museum, Qin Yuwei couldn't help but exclaim, "This is clearly seduction!"

Wang Tian's face darkened: "She's testing me. Besides, she's carrying a surveillance device."

"What?" Qin Yuwei was taken aback.

Wang Tiandao said, "Although it was well hidden, I smelled a peculiar scent of microelectronic components."

Sure enough, that very evening, Wang Tian received an encrypted call from Elder Xu: "Su Yun, 45, is the deputy director of the provincial museum. However, we discovered that she studied abroad twenty years ago, and her whereabouts have been a mystery for the past two years. We suspect she may have been recruited or replaced by the Eternal Life Society."

Replace him? Wang Tian felt a chill run down his spine when he recalled the Eternal Life Society's methods of transformation.

"Furthermore, we have already had experts interpret some of the symbols on the photo of the bronze box you gave me," Old Xu continued. "There is a place on it called the Eye of Yunmeng Great Marsh, which is said to be the key that the Heavenly Gate cannot open, and it is hidden there."

Yunmeng Lake was known as Dongting Lake in ancient times.

"Where?"

"I don't know either. However, the runes say that to find it, one must have the Eye of Shennong," Elder Xu said. "Do you have any relevant clues in the star map you brought back from Shennongjia?"

Wang Tian took out a star map and examined it carefully. He discovered a special mark on Dongting Lake, with a line of small characters next to it: Shennong Nine Needles, which can open the Heavenly Eye.

"Is this the Nine Needles of Shennong?" He thought of the bamboo slip.

After hanging up the call, Wang Tian immediately began reading the bamboo slips.

It turns out that the "Shennong Nine Needles" is not only acupuncture, but also a cultivation method. When cultivated to the highest level, one can open the "Shennong Heavenly Eye" to see through illusions and perceive their true nature.

However, there is a special requirement for cultivation: one must be in an ancient place rich in spiritual energy, absorb the essence of the sun and moon, and use nine needles to stimulate acupoints in order to open the ancestral aperture between the eyebrows.

Deep within Dongting Lake lies a place called Junshan, which is said to be the burial place of Emperor Shun's two consorts.

Wang Tianxia made up his mind: "Let's go to Junshan."

Of course, Qin Yuwei also wanted to go along.

Zhang Qingyun came with him.

Wang Tian wanted to refuse, but both of them looked determined to have him.

"There's more people, so we can look out for each other," Zhang Qingyun said.

Qin Yuwei said, "I can help you!"

Wang Tian had no choice but to agree.

Before leaving, he contacted Elder Chi Jiu and Celestial Master Zhang Xuanling, telling them about the possible stronghold of the "Eternal Life Society" in Dongting Lake and asking them to come secretly.

He sent Lin Wei another message, asking her to use her business channels to check if there were any abnormal capital or personnel flows in the Dongting Lake area recently.

Lin Wei replied to the message quickly.

"About two weeks ago, an 'eco-technology' company from abroad bought a small island in Dongting Lake, claiming it was for research purposes. However, the purchase list included a lot of military equipment and supplies."

The location of the island is attached; it's very close to Junshan Mountain!

The Eternal Life Society indeed took the lead.

The vast and misty Dongting Lake.

Under the cover of night, Wang Tian and his two companions rented a fishing boat and headed towards Junshan.

The boat captain was a taciturn old fisherman who took the money and set sail without asking why.

As they approached Junshan, Wang Tian used his Medical Eye to take a look. There was a faint layer of black mist on the island, which was Yin energy, artificially created.

"Something's not right." He gestured to the boatman, "Let's sneak ashore."

The three dived into the water and came ashore on a desolate beach.

Junshan Island is covered with lush trees, and at night it is eerily quiet, so quiet that you can't even hear the chirping of insects.

According to the star map, the best place to cultivate the "Shennong Heavenly Eye" is "Xuanyuan Terrace", which is the highest peak of Junshan Mountain.

However, that place is definitely under the control of the Eternal Life Society.

Wang Tian said in a deep voice, "Let's see how things go first."

The three of them were walking through the jungle.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before they saw patrolling soldiers, all in black combat uniforms, in groups of five.

After dodging several patrol teams, as they approached the summit, they spotted the Eternal Life Society's hideout—not a modern building, but a stronghold based on an ancient structure.

Its main structure is an ancient temple, surrounded by simple sheds and fortifications.

The ancient temple was brightly lit, and one could vaguely see figures moving about.

Wang Tian frowned and said, "It seems like some kind of ritual is being performed."

He had two women stand guard outside while he quietly approached.

The windows of the ancient temple were all boarded up, but you could see inside through the cracks in the doors.

Inside the temple, dozens of members of the Eternal Life Society formed a circle. In the very center of the altar, there was a stone table, and lying on the table was Su Yun! She was bound to the stone table, her eyes filled with fear.
