It was easy to find the connection when you thought back to how you tracked the Golden Cup and how long the couple had been around.

It could even be said that there was only one reason why the couple had brazenly appeared in the plaza.

That was to attract Shi Lei's attention.

That's right, Xiu Er and Yi Sha had thought of a way when they found out about Shi Lei's existence. They had appeared on their own, forcing Shi Lei to return and give up on tracking them down.

And at that time, the result of Shi Lei's return was like this. Everyone had already retreated.

The only thing left to Shi Lei was this empty room.

There wasn't anything useful in the room. Shi Lei tried to find some traces of Li Tongxi, but he couldn't find anything at all.

Shi Lei made a few markings nearby, and then walked around the dead tree in front of the house a few times before deciding to go back.

Shi Lei really didn't have any other choice. He clearly felt that he had already touched something, but in the end, he was still lacking a little.

If he could really see any of the people in this organization, he would know the truth behind all of this.

Since he did not gain anything here, Shi Lei could not stay any longer. He called the driver that he had agreed upon previously and was about to leave, but the driver's attitude was different.

"I'm not going. Come back by yourself."

The driver said coldly.

"What?"

Shi Lei thought that he had misheard, and repeated himself once more before saying, "Are you joking? I've already given you the one hundred yuan deposit, and you're just putting me down like this?"

"A hundred dollars? Who saw it? Besides, I came back from your place for so long, didn't you want to waste my time making money? If you want me to go, that's fine too, but you have to pay more. "

"Alright, how much do you want?"

"A thousand dollars."

The driver didn't think at all.

"Are you kidding me, a thousand dollars? "Why don't you just rob them?"

Shi Lei was obviously very angry, money was not a problem, but to be toyed with like that, that was the most shameful thing.

"Let me tell you, even if I walk back myself, I won't take your car!"

With that said, Shi Lei angrily hung up the phone, planning to walk back.

However, there was a law in this world. After Shi Lei righteously condemned this driver's actions, he started to rely on his own feet to guide them.

However, number 11 was not reliable. After walking about five to six kilometers, Shi Lei still called the driver.

"Come over here, no matter how much it costs."

In the end, Shi Lei spent one thousand and five hundred yuan to get back to the city through the mud house.

It had been a few days since Shi Lei first came to the Jiangling, and a period of time had passed since the broadcast of《 State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine》. At that time, Shi Lei's miraculous performance had shocked many people.

But with the passing of time, Shi Lei had not appeared in public much of the time. Although Lin Qiumo had caught up to the promotion of the guild, one was in the capital, and the other was in the Jiangling, so the excitement slowly heated up.

If he did not have a chance, he might really not think about Shi Lei and the existence of the Chinese Medical Association.

The driver did not recognize Shi Lei's identity, so after pulling Shi Lei into the city, he immediately let him off, and did not give him any face.

Alright, in this kind of place that he was unfamiliar with, Shi Lei could only concede defeat.

After getting off the car, Shi Lei originally wanted to directly return to the hotel, ask Xu Tai about some specific situations, and then make a decision. However, the moment he thought of Xu Tai, that strange villa still made him unable to relax.

That strange smell that made Shi Lei unable to breathe normally was something he would never forget for the rest of his life.

Xu Tai also said that only those whose bodies were infected by the parasite would be able to smell this scent. Then, what exactly is this smell?

Shi Lei came to Xu Tai's villa once again. He realised that the place was still as it was before, with the door slightly ajar.

If there was any change from before, it might be the most obvious change since the taste had become even stronger.

The first time he came here, it only smelled a little bad, but today, it felt like he was choking his nose. The moment Shi Lei opened the door, a pungent smell immediately persuaded him to retreat.

After using his clothes to make a mask, Shi Lei put it on and walked in while covering his nose.

The first floor of the villa was no different from the first floor. It looked like this the moment he followed Yi Sha and the others here, as if the place where the smell originated from was not here.

The backyard was a place where even Xu Tai could live in, so it wouldn't exist.

Because he was afraid that people would see it, Shi Lei carefully walked up the stairs. After walking around the spiral staircase, the pungent smell became even stronger.

"This is the smell!"

Shi Lei was sure that the thing was hidden on the second floor.

There was a bedroom on this side, a large living room on the stairs, and a locked door on the right.

"Could it be here?"

Shi Lei started to count in his heart.

Looking at the tightly shut door of the room, Shi Lei did not care too much about it. After all, the owner of the villa was inside the hotel, and even if he were to tear down the mansion, Xu Tai would not say anything.

Thinking about that, Shi Lei kicked the door open, causing the room door to fall to the floor.

After blowing away the dust in front of his eyes, what appeared before Shi Lei was an enormous object.

This is …

"Gu!"

Although Shi Lei was not someone who raised Gu, from the feeling that Xu Tai had from his own body before, Shi Lei could clearly tell that the entire room was filled with Gu.

These Gu were placed in special containers, just like petri dishes, letting them grow on their own.

This was where the stench from before originated from.

No wonder this smell was able to make Xu Tai's entire person turn bad. No wonder the people around him didn't feel anything unusual.

Although Yi Sha and Xiu Er had left the villa, they were using Xu Tai's villa to nurture the Gu!

This time, the matter was really big.

If all of these Gu were to be nurtured, they would fall into the hands of Yi Sha's group, and the entire Jiangling City would possibly fall into an unprecedented calamity!

Thinking about it, Shi Lei could not help but feel his blood run cold.
