Chapter 22

The Plan to Eliminate Males

"Sedative incense? Fox urine?"

I'm not curious about the fact that urine can be used to make a drug; I'd like to know about human urine yellow and human urine white.

I just remembered what Ma Shuai told me, that Deng Wenwen had a fox spirit attached to her. I didn't expect it to actually be true, and not only that, it even came after me.

"right!"

Fatty Lin snorted and said, "These are some unique bewitching techniques used by fox spirit sects. I broke her spell, but she might come back. You'd better find somewhere to hide!"

"Dodge my ass! I was just caught off guard and fell for her trick. If she dares to come back, you'll see if I don't beat her up!"

I walked inside as I spoke.

Back in the bedroom, I dragged a box out from under the bed, opened it, and took out a half-meter-long brown whip from the top compartment. It was a tiger-tail whip.

As its name suggests, this whip, wrapped in cowhide, is made primarily of tiger tail. It was the medical fee that my grandfather received from a certain turtle-shaped man when he helped him treat his health.

I thought about it and decided that it wasn't safe to rely on the bottom, so I took out a single-sided drum from the bottom of the box.

The drum has no handles, but has a copper ring on the back. It is fixed in the middle with four animal hides in a cross shape, and eight copper coins are threaded through the strings on the back of the drum.

The drumhead is dark brown and has a fish-scale pattern; it is made of python skin.

That's right, this is a Wenwang Drum, given to my grandfather by a shaman who couldn't find a successor.

After Ma Shuai learned about this drum, he asked my grandfather for it many times, but my grandfather refused to give it to him.

Looking at these two things, I felt confident.

I have quite a few similar treasures hidden away, such as the rope used by corpse retrievers to bind corpses, the coroner's autopsy knife, and the octagonal bronze mirror used by corpse carriers, all of which were paid for by those members of the Yin-Yang sect.

I may not have much cultivation, but I have many magical artifacts. Even if I just pile them up, I can still crush any dirty things that come knocking on my door.

Having figured things out, I took the tiger-tail whip in one hand and the Wenwang drum in the other, and came out of the house, waiting for Deng Wenwen to come over.

I sat down at the table, thought for a moment, then opened the safe under the table and took out a palm-sized wooden box. Inside was a copper ball, about two sizes smaller than a quail egg, strung with a red string.

The copper pill is hollow inside and engraved with talismans on the outside. It can be disassembled, and inside is a wax-sealed Chinese medicine pill.

I took out the copper ball and wore it around my neck like a necklace.

This copper pill is called the Evil-Repelling Pearl. The talisman on the outer copper shell was carved by a Taoist priest. The Chinese medicine pill inside is made from a secret recipe using tiger skull, cinnabar, realgar, orpiment, ghost white, soapberry, angelica root, euonymus, tribulus terrestris, and other ingredients. It was left to me by my grandfather.

Once you put it on, evil spirits will not dare to approach.

My grandfather practiced medicine his whole life, he has plenty of good stuff, let's see who can beat whom!

I waited and waited, until it got dark, but Deng Wenwen still didn't come.

If it weren't for Fatty Lin advising me to calm down, I would have even called Deng Wenwen and asked her to come over.

After dark, I thought about it and realized that this matter couldn't be left like this. The things Deng Wenwen asked me to do were no small things. Finding out a celebrity's weaknesses and finding a way to get away with it was one thing, but opening a traditional Chinese medicine health class and secretly recording images of wealthy and political figures was something else entirely.

She's a foreign woman, and her husband is a foreign media mogul. What is she trying to achieve by doing all this?

After thinking about it, I realized that I couldn't handle this myself. Whether it was exploiting the weaknesses of celebrities or opening a traditional Chinese medicine health class, I was relying on Hua Zong's influence.

If something goes wrong, even if Hua Zong manages to land safely thanks to his family background, he will still be severely punished.

Thinking of this, I called Mr. Hua and explained the situation.

"hehe!"

After listening, Mr. Hua smiled and said, "Xiao Feng, you're very good. Here, I'll send a car to pick you up. Come to my place!"

"good!"

I nodded, somewhat unsure of Hua Zong's intentions. From the implication in his words, it seemed he wasn't surprised by what Deng Wenwen had done, as if he had known all along.

An hour later, I met Hua Zong in Hua Zong's study.

"Hua Zong!"

Upon seeing Hua Zong, I couldn't wait to speak, but Hua Zong waved his hand and said, "Xiao Feng, I said you were fine on the phone because you didn't hide anything from me!"

"As for what you've said, I'm not surprised at all. They would have done it even without you, just under different pretexts!"

"For example, spiritual societies that started appearing in the 1990s!"

"You knew all that?" I was a little surprised.

"Isn't it strange that you know this but don't care?" Hua Zong asked.

"yes!"

I nodded.

"hehe!"

Hua Zong smiled and said, "Some things are better left unresolved than addressed."

This statement baffles me. What does it mean to say that it's better to guide than to block?

"Back to Deng Wenwen, do you know what she's trying to do?" Hua Zong didn't explain further, but instead asked.

"Make money?" I asked.

"No, no, no!"

Hua Zong waved his finger and said, "Have you heard of the Xiong Plan?"

"What plan?"

I asked.

"The plan to eliminate male genitalia!" Hua Zong said.

"Never heard of it!" I shook my head.

"The 'de-masculinization plan' was led by America and was a cultural infiltration strategy aimed at weakening the cohesion and fighting capacity of target regions by shaping effeminate male figures and changing aesthetic concepts."

Hua Zong said.

"You mean, Deng Wenwen is part of this plan?" I immediately realized.

"That's right!"

Hua Zong smiled and said, "Those so-called sixth-generation directors in China are, in a sense, spokespeople for this program. The investors behind their films are all foreign foundations!"

"These funds also had connections to the investors behind those well-known films featuring people with the same surname a few years ago!"

"You mean the movie 'Blue Rain'?" I immediately thought of a film.

Simply put, this movie is too famous.

There are many rumors circulating about this movie. Some say that the two male leads fell in love on set and didn't dare to meet for a long time after filming, for fear of crossing the line.

"Someone crossed the line with that movie!"

Hua Zong snorted.

"Crossing the line?" I became increasingly curious.

"Some things, some people can do, some people can't do. For example, the Xiong plan. This isn't a secret, it's semi-public. It's all in America's public reports, you can find it!"

"Opening up comes at a price, and the de-maleization plan is part of that price. But this is a price that outsiders can pay, but we cannot!"

"Our CEO Lei not only did it, but also, as an investor, had the director film his affair with his mistress, a mix of truth and fiction, openly promoting a sensitive topic. That's overstepping his bounds!"

At this point, Mr. Hua paused and said, "Of course, he did more than just that. He was imprisoned mainly for other things, but crossing the line is also a factor that cannot be ignored!"
