Stepdaughter of a wealthy family? The little darling of a Beijing tycoon

This is the Golden Needle Sealing Technique that Shen Jingshu learned from Xuanjizi, belonging to the ancient martial arts lineage. When she first became his apprentice, Shen Jingshu wanted to acquire more self-defense skills, so Xuanjizi had her familiarize herself with the acupoints on various parts of the human body and then taught her this technique. Compared to cumbersome weapons, silver needles are small and portable, capable of both healing and subduing enemies invisibly, making them Shen Jingshu's most frequently used method.

When the surrounding passengers saw the assailant pointing a gun at Shen Jingshu, they instinctively closed their eyes, not daring to look. They all felt sorry for her, thinking that such a young and beautiful girl was about to fall under the gun.

The expected piercing gunshot failed to ring out. Everyone opened their eyes anxiously, only to see the short-haired thug standing stiffly in place, his arm still holding the gun, maintaining the posture of preparing to fire, as if he had been under a spell.

Shen Jingshu turned to look at the terrified passengers in the cabin, her voice calm and clear: "Everyone, stay in your seats, don't move, and don't make a sound. There are still two criminals in the cockpit."

The passengers were so shocked by this extraordinary scene that they were speechless and dared not even breathe. Their eyes followed Shen Jingshu's figure, and they were filled with fear and apprehension.

Shen Jingshu didn't linger, her gaze fixed on the cockpit at the front of the plane. The mastermind, Viper, and another accomplice were still inside, controlling the aircraft; this hijacking ordeal was far from over. She carefully put away the remaining silver needles and walked steadily forward.

After the snake and the man in the baseball cap broke into the cockpit, the captain had already signaled the co-pilot to quietly contact the ground control tower the moment he realized something was wrong in the cabin.

When news of the hijacking reached the ground, it caused a huge shock, and relevant departments immediately mobilized. Staff checked the flight passenger list and quickly determined that Professor Xu was the hijacker's target.

The news was reported up the chain of command, and the higher authorities immediately issued an order: rescue Mr. Xu at all costs. He possessed core research data on a cure for the novel virus and was a key scientific researcher under national protection. If he fell into the hands of foreign forces, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Viper had anticipated that the captain would contact the ground, so he was completely unconcerned and showed no sign of tension.

Suppressing his anger, the captain asked in a deep voice, "Who exactly are you people? What do you want to do by hijacking this plane?"

"The captain doesn't need to know this." Viper spread out a map and emphasized the marked location with his fingertip. "Now, change course immediately and land here."

The captain frowned: "No, this isn't on the planned route!"

"Don't try to talk to me about rules." The Viper gun was slightly raised, pointing directly at the captain's temple. "You're an experienced captain; this little thing won't stump you. Just behave yourself, and I'll keep your life safe. But if you try anything funny, you'll be dead."

The cold touch of the gun barrel pressed against his forehead. The captain had no choice but to suppress his resentment and adjust the course as Viper had instructed.

The plane tilted slightly and suddenly changed direction, deviating from its original route to Yunnan.

On the radar screen of the ground control tower, the flight path, which had been moving normally, suddenly deviated. The personnel on duty immediately noticed the anomaly, the alarm sounded immediately, and the emergency response team quickly followed up and urgently discussed interception and rescue plans.

Outside the cockpit door, Shen Jingshu slowly approached, several silver needles held between her fingers, her spiritual energy quietly gathering. Inside, two more thugs remained; this standoff was about to reach its final confrontation.

Just as Shen Jingshu was about to reach the cockpit door, two dark figures suddenly rushed out from the side and attacked her fiercely!

The newcomers were the two air security officers secretly assigned to the flight. The moment the hijackers launched their attack and the plane was taken into control, the two realized the urgency of the situation and intended to act immediately to inform the captain. However, the hijackers moved too quickly, and Viper and his gang had already forcefully entered the cockpit and taken control of the entire aircraft.

The situation was forced to reverse. The two security officers dared not show themselves rashly and could only quietly lurk in the shadows of the cabin, waiting for an opportunity to act. Just now, they saw Shen Jingshu approaching the cockpit alone, acting suspiciously. Unable to determine her identity, the two subconsciously regarded her as an accomplice of the hijackers and decisively took action to intercept her.

In the blink of an eye, Shen Jingshu's gaze swept over them, and through their faces and the righteous aura they exuded, she instantly recognized them as the plane's security personnel. While nimbly dodging their attacks, she explained, "I'm not a hijacker, you've misunderstood!"

However, the current situation is chaotic, and it's difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood. The two security officers cannot trust anyone. The girl in front of them looks young, but her skills are exceptionally sharp and far beyond those of ordinary people, which makes them even more wary.

The two showed no sign of stopping, their attacks becoming increasingly fierce, their sole aim being to subdue and control Shen Jingshu, thus completely eliminating any unknown safety risks.

After several unsuccessful attempts to explain, the other party continued to press forward relentlessly, locking down her with every move. Helpless, Shen Jingshu no longer held back and quickly flicked out two immobilization talismans.

Two beams of light flashed by and landed precisely on the two safety officers.

The two, who were agile and attacking with all their might just a second ago, suddenly froze, completely rooted to the spot, unable to move an inch.

The two safety officers were utterly shocked and filled with disbelief.

What kind of bizarre method is this?!

This is not modern combat at all; instead, it is like the ancient martial arts acupoint striking technique from ancient novels, which only exists in film and television fiction. It completely subverts their understanding and even makes them wonder if they are still in the 21st century.

Shen Jingshu looked at the two people who were standing frozen in place and calmly said, "I already said that I am just an ordinary passenger on this flight. There were four hijackers in total. Two of them broke into the cockpit, and the remaining two have been subdued by me. If you don't believe me, you can check it yourselves later."

She was too lazy to explain any further, and simply added, "You guys wait here first. I'll deal with the last thugs in the cockpit before I come back to untie your restraints."

After speaking, Shen Jingshu did not linger and slowly approached the cockpit door.

Fortunately, the cockpit was well soundproofed, and the noise from her brief confrontation with the two security officers was completely masked by the cabin's roar. The snake and its accomplices inside were completely unaware of this and continued to firmly control the captain, oblivious to the impending danger.

Shen Jingshu raised her hand and placed it on the cold cockpit door handle, but the cockpit door was locked from the inside. Unless someone opened it from the inside, it would be almost impossible to force it open from the outside. But this obstacle was no problem for Shen Jingshu. She gently placed her hand on the cold metal door handle, and a wisp of warm spiritual energy slowly flowed through her palm.

The spiritual energy seeped into the lock's interior through the gaps, carefully examining the lock cylinder's structure. Shen Jingshu focused her attention, and with a slight turn of the spiritual energy at her fingertips, like a delicate thread, she deftly manipulated the latches within the lock cylinder.

There was only a very faint "click" sound.

The heavy cockpit door lock opened silently.
