[What happened? Why did I not notice that the descendant of the eagle flutist was bleeding from all seven of his orifices??]

[I don’t understand what happened either. It happened in a flash. Motherfucker, it scared me. From Wei Xun’s point of view, it was really like a bloody face that suddenly raised his head.]

[Did he fall into someone’s scheme? Or was he poisoned by someone?]

The scene of the descendant of the eagle flutist being poisoned sparked a heated discussion in the commentary barrage of the livestream room, and some worried viewers pointed out:

[Wei Xun and his team are too unlucky. Let alone the matter of having a tour guide like IV-1, what’s worse is that the pathfinder seems to be having some problems]

[No, you can see that his face is blue, and his seven orifices are bleeding. Aren’t these symptoms similar to that of Ji Hongcai being poisoned by the insect previously?]

[How is this similar? Don’t decide that it’s the same poison simply because he’s also bleeding from his seven orifices, okay?]

[That’s right, at that time Ji Hongcai was still coughing violently, convulsing, and had a high fever, while the poison was so damaging that he bled from his seven orifices. The poison in the descendant of the eagle flutist is probably more serious than the poison in Ji Hongcai back then]

[Could it be that the insects are the problem? From what I observe, they seem to be similar in appearance to the Insects of Evil. The mere sight makes my scalp tingle]

[Impossible. Both parties, the two Lamas and Wei Xun, picked up the bugs with their hands, so why didn’t they get poisoned?]

[I don’t think there is a problem with the insects, but the issue lies with the descendant of the eagle flutist himself. I feel that something is wrong with him today!]

There was something wrong with the descendant of the eagle flutist, but because the difference was very subtle, only audience members with extremely keen minds noticed it. However, those bigwig tour guides and tourists who knew what was wrong were deliberating about a whole different set of issues.

“From what I see, there is something wrong with him.”

In the theater hall of the Homeward Tour Party, Mao Xiaole stared at the screen and said, “Previously, the descendant of the eagle flutist paid special attention to things related to the Dragon God and the Golden-winged Great Peng. There is no reason why he would remain unmoved when the Lama addressed Teacher Wei with so many titles.

“Hmph.”

Mao Xiaole snorted coldly, and said with a sneer, “It wouldn’t be a small expense for someone to make their move on the tour group’s pathfinder. They should have a huge scheme.

“IV-1 doesn’t have the power to be able to do this. The tour guide behind IV-1 is more likely to be the mastermind or another tour guide who wants to make a move. I didn’t expect them to act in such an unrestrained manner…

“It’s a pity that IV-1 is not dead yet. Even if he tried his best to control the tour group for the entire tour, it would take a lot of effort to get around the rules the tour group has, and its effect will never be satisfactory.

“Judging at how quickly the descendant of the eagle flutist has attracted the attention of others after being poisoned, even if they tried to control him, I feel that he would be half-dead already. Someone like them want to act against Teacher Wei? Heh, idiots.”

Mao Xiaole eloquently expressed his opinion, but no one responded. Hence, he instantly became unhappy. “Are you listening to what I’m saying!”

“Ah, I’m listening, I’m listening.”

Lu Shucheng sat cross-legged on the ground, as her grayish-white wolf tail swept the ground like a broom. Her wolf’s eyes lit up, and suddenly she shouted, “Look, look, Captain is indeed captured by Three Waters!”

“Haha, even if the captain morphs into the snow leopard, he is still facing trouble courting Wei Xun,” Wang Yushu laughed and commented, “He catches endangered animals every time he hunts for Wei Xun. It’s no wonder Wei Xun rejects him every time.”

“It’s true. Just by watching the scene, I can feel anxiety sweeping over me. I wish I could join the tour to help Captain.”

Lu Shucheng waved her fingers. The nails on her snow-white and slender fingers were as sharp as animal claws.

“I think Captain is doing all this in vain. Wei Xun doesn’t have such thoughts towards a snow leopard.”

Wang Yushu spoke logically, with a smile that men could understand, and said to himself, “Just now in the tent, heh. If it wasn’t too dark, I would really want to screenshot a high-definition big picture of Captain’s leopard face when he was rejected.”

“The captain is already working very hard!”

Lu Shucheng was trying to prove that Captain Baobao was indeed trying his best. “It even brought back the little black dog to please Three Waters!”

“Hahaha, I also took a screenshot of this scene!” Wang Yushu was beaming, and slyly replied, “It’s the first time Captain Baobao has worked so hard, so I have to save this picture to reminisce about the moment.”

“You. Guys.”

As they were joyously discussing things in a soft tone, they didn’t expect that a gloomy voice filled with the sound of gnashing teeth would come from behind them. After that, a fly-whisk flew over and mercilessly knocked everyone heavily on their shoulders.

And the culprit was Mao Xiaole, who had a dark expression and seemed like he was about to devour all of them!

“It’s already the second day of Wei Xun’s livestream now. Can we discuss something normal!”

“I’m listening, I’m listening, Xiaole, you’re right, I think the descendant of the eagle flutist must be plotting against Three Waters.”

Lu Shucheng rubbed her shoulders. She could have avoided it, but seeing that Mao Xiaole’s face had darkened so much, her heart shuddered and she forced herself to bear with Mao Xiaole’s hit.

Next to her, Wang Yushu didn’t have such a strong sense of crisis, so he dodged the fly-whisk, and said with a drawn-out laugh, “Isn’t this just giving us Captain Baobao a chance to save the beauty in a heroic act? It’s a pity that he didn’t get to unsheathe his claws. The villain collapsed before everything happened. Hahahahaha, hahahahaha, Xiaole, quick, hahahahaha, take your talisman off, hahahaha.”

His laughter sounded endlessly. However, his laughter wasn’t due to his own will, it was because he couldn’t stop laughing!

Lu Shucheng shot a glance at him secretly, and saw a laughter talisman on Wang Yushu’s forehead. She was speechless, but felt that it was fortunate that she bore with the smack from the fly-whisk.

“Laugh. Go ahead and laugh. Since you wish to laugh, I’ll let you laugh to your heart’s content.”

Mao Xiaole snorted. He made Wang Yushu laugh for five minutes before retrieving the talisman. This action caused Wang Yushu to collapse on the sofa and gasp for air.

“Only you could do this,” Wang Yushu said weakly.

He was too familiar with Mao Xiaole being close to him. After all, when he felt emotionally unstable, he mostly relied on Mao Xiaole’s crying talisman to get him out of the state. Therefore, he was completely unprepared when Mao Xiaole stuck the talisman onto him. He would have reacted differently if it were somebody else.

“Don’t laugh at Teacher Wei again,” Mao Xiaole said seriously, “He is in danger now!”

“Cough, Xiao Le, we’re not laughing at Teacher Wei.”

Lu Shucheng added cheerfully, “We are, yes, we are happy that fate brought Teacher Wei and Captain together!”

“That’s right.”

When Wang Yushu regained his strength, he wanted to laugh again, and the corner of his mouth twitched. “We wouldn’t laugh unless we couldn’t bear to suppress it. This happened because we thought of this joyous occasion.”

The main reason behind them laughing was because they saw Captain Baobao working so hard. The harder he worked, the more mistakes he made. Hence, couldn’t they encourage the captain with the sounds of their laughter?!

Of course, when the captain returned and watched the vlog of this tour, he would probably be so embarrassed and angry that he would teach them a lesson, and no one could run away from it.

That being the case, it was even more necessary to laugh in advance!

“Okay, okay, let’s talk business.”

Seeing Mao Xiaole’s stern expression as he twisted out a dozen talismans with a flip of his fingers, Lu Shucheng quietly moved back, grabbing Wang Yushu who was about to now on the edge of the cliff, about to die. She added seriously, “Judging from the appearance of the descendant of the eagle flutist, he is likely to be controlled.

“The Travel Services’ livestream can’t show everything that’s happening, but I think his hair has grown longer.”

Wang Yushu smiled as he circled his arms around Mao Xiaole, trying to take the talisman away from him, but the fly-whisk knocked the back of Wang Yushu’s hand again. After that, Wang Yushu leaned back on the sofa and spoke lazily. His tired and half-closed eyelids lifted, revealing a glimmer of light.

“Hair Ghost II-49.”

Wang Yushu and Lu Shucheng spoke at the same time. Lu Shucheng was curling her hair with her fingers as she mentioned, “The descendant of the eagle flutist originally had semi-long hair, and it was tied up before, but now it is scattered, making it difficult for people to notice his expression.”

“The look in his eyes isn’t right, his forehead has a black hue, and his reactions are slow. It is because Hair Ghost II-49 has not fully controlled him yet.”

Mao Xiaole snorted softly. “That Hair Ghost II-49 is quite capable, I am afraid that a strand of hair has invaded the tour and attached itself to the body of the descendant of the eagle flutist.”

There couldn’t be two tour guides on the same tour, but humans could use their schemes and rats could use their tricks. Some of the tour guides had inconspicuous means. There were hidden props that could be brought into another person’s tour. Bee Master’s chrysalises or II-49’s ghostly hair were suitable examples of this.

The reason why he could be considered smart was because he always chose good targets. Tourists were the most important assets to the Travel Services, and there was always livestream supervision. This supervision was not only to monitor the misconduct of tour guides, but also to monitor various means that others might use on the tour.

However, the descendant of the eagle flutist was the pathfinder, who had an important role on the tour, but was not constantly monitored by the livestream. When he did not appear in the sight of the tourists, he would not be monitored by the Travel Services.

“In the past two days, the descendant of the eagle flutist did not appear. I am afraid that this gave II-49 a chance to act.”

“However, the person who did it discovered the vulnerabilities of the descendant of the eagle flutist so rapidly. This person must have been watching the tour group the entire time.”

Wang Yushu laughed sarcastically.

“That little slaughterer Bee Master is proficient in using poison.”

Mao Xiaole also sneered. “I think he should be in a hurry as well, and we just happened to watch a show of a dog biting another dog.”

That II-49 belonged to the Shepherd Alliance, and the forces behind it were different from those behind IV-1. It would be apt to say that there was competition. Hair Ghost II-49 performed with all his might in front of the Puppeteer, hoping to win the chance to attend the year-end celebration, and Bee Master, who was ranked II-50, was probably aiming towards the same goal.

Bee Master had subdued IV-1 from before, so he must have given IV-1 a lot of items and props. If the poisonous bee directly attacked II-49’s true body, it probably wouldn’t be able to cause him much damage. However, II-49 was currently just a strand of hair attached to the descendant of the eagle flutist, as long as the descendant of the eagle flutist was wiped out, it would naturally destroy II-49’s meticulous plans.

Wang Yushu sighed softly. “They are really not afraid of death.”

“No one is more afraid of death than a tour guide.”

Lu Shucheng laughed, his eyes turning cold. “No one is more greedy than them.”

“It would be a good thing if Hair Ghost and Bee Master had a drawn-out fight. They have been enemies for a long time. When they meet, they usually fight until their lives are at risk. Even if they don’t do that, they will try to suppress the others by using tricks up their sleeves.”

“But any abyssal-type has to lay low and raise their white flag when they meet our captain.”

Mao Xiaole sneered, “If they had sent a ghost-type or mutation-type, they might have miraculously seen a difference.

“However, it seems that they have preyed on the wrong target.”
