Chapter 817 The Overall Trend Is Emerging! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Wu Aiguo was unaware that the situation at the Sanctuary in Athens was in complete chaos.
Many powerful figures dispatched by various forces have already entered the Holy Domain.
As for how they got in, nobody knows.
Soon after, items from the Holy Land began circulating in the outside world, causing quite a stir.
It was only when Ye Fan called and brought it up that Wu Aiguo found out.
After all, the top experts from Hong Kong Island have also entered the Sanctuary of Athens.
They suffered an unprecedented heavy blow, but fortunately they were not too greedy. They just wandered around the outer perimeter of the Holy Land, took some things, and then left.
Even so, of the five or six top experts who went in, only two came out, and both of them were injured.
Ye Fan was able to obtain information immediately only because he had entered the circle of top martial artists in Hong Kong.
This guy excitedly said on the phone that the two top experts from Hong Kong Island brought out something quite amazing from the Sanctuary of Athens.
As for exactly how miraculous it was, he didn't elaborate, clearly indicating that he didn't know the details either.
Wu Aiguo listened quietly without offering any opinions.
However, he also knew that the Saint Seiya storyline was completely messed up.
The Sanctuary has been completely exposed. It might not be a battle to defend Athena anymore, but a battle to defend the Sanctuary.
"You can't even go there, so why are you getting so worked up?"
Wu Aiguo chuckled and teased, "Could it be that you can get your hands on the sacred items brought back by the top experts from Hong Kong Island?"
"This one……"
Ye Fan's embarrassment could be heard through the microphone.
"If you don't have the ability, don't even think about it!"
Wu Aiguo reminded him, "It's not too late to talk about this when your martial arts cultivation has reached the late stage of organ refinement!"
"Okay, I got a little carried away with the excitement!"
Ye Fan was willing to listen to advice and changed the subject, saying, "I need more and more reliable manpower on my side..."
"Figure it out yourself!"
Wu Aiguo said irritably, "Your hometown is developing quite well. There aren't many capable people willing to venture out and still satisfy you!"
"OK then!"
Ye Fan said helplessly, "Remember to provide enough of the finest Ten-Ingredient Tonic Pills on time; these things are very important!"
"Don't worry, I'm fine on my end!"
Wu Aiguo said leisurely, "On your end, also gather more information about things that don't make sense!"
"Boss, what does that mean?"
This guy, influenced by the atmosphere in Hong Kong, has started to be sarcastic too.
Wu Aiguo naturally didn't care. He casually recounted Zhao Youcai's story briefly, and finally said with a smile, "Judging from this, the feng shui here at Poyang Lake is excellent!"
"You and Du Fei are both lucky, and now Zhao Youcai has joined the fray!"
"You flatter me, sir!"
Ye Fan's voice sounded very guilty through the microphone.
He immediately changed the subject, asking curiously, "Has Du Fei also shown any unusual behavior?"
"That's not true!"
Wu Aiguo chuckled and said, "But his performance was in no way inferior to yours or Zhao Youcai's!"
"To be honest, he had the heaviest burden. Fortunately, he had his parents and brothers to help him, otherwise someone would have died!"
"But in such a short time, he has become a well-known large-scale breeder in the county, and his annual income is skyrocketing!"
"If he had gone to Hong Kong like you, he might have done even better than you!" "Unlikely. The environment in Hong Kong isn't very friendly to honest, law-abiding people!"
Ye Fan didn't hold back either, toying with the mysterious wooden plaque that had changed his fate, and retorted, "You also need to have enough martial power!"
"Martial arts? I heard he's already reached the Body Refinement level!"
Wu Aiguo revealed, "It was just something I did for fun, practicing with kids who were going to school, and somehow I made a name for myself. If you put all your effort into it..."
The rest of the sentence was left unsaid, but the meaning was quite clear.
"No way, could Du Fei be some kind of martial arts genius?"
Ye Fan was genuinely surprised this time, and softened his tone, asking curiously, "Or is there something unusual about him?"
The question was rather vague; it essentially asked if anyone had something like a Water Spirit Orb to carry around.
"That's definitely not possible!"
Wu Aiguo said leisurely, "Otherwise, it simply couldn't be hidden!"
Ye Fan thought about it and agreed. Since Zhao Youcai's matter had already alarmed the capital, it was obvious that the capital authorities would definitely conduct a thorough investigation of his hometown.
When facing the state apparatus, unless one truly remains completely out of the loop, any abnormality about oneself cannot be hidden.
"Boss, you mean there are extraordinary items outside too?"
At this moment, he also realized why Wu Aiguo had given such an order.
"That's for sure!"
Wu Aiguo chuckled and said, "In particular, we should pay special attention to those regions that are related to myths and legends!"
"I see!"
After hanging up the phone, Wu Aiguo packed up and returned to his location.
The house was spotless, and on the antique shelf in the study, there were four gourds, one large and three small.
The large gourd is as big as a football, while the small gourd is only the size of a palm.
Outsiders would definitely think that these four gourds are just decorations.
In fact, of course not!
These four gourds are all extraordinary items that grew in the secret realm of the Five Old Peaks.
Wu Aiguo was also unsure what kind of gourds these four gourds were.
However, after he picked the mature gourd and took it out of the secret realm, he discovered something different.
After being processed, the four gourds can retain the efficacy of the spiritual spring water if they are filled with it!
Wu Aiguo conducted an experiment; four gourds filled with spiritual spring water lasted for at least a month without any problems.
Later, he was surprised to find that the gourd, after being stimulated by his magic, could actually turn ordinary well water into spiritual water with one-fifth the effect of spiritual spring water, which was quite remarkable.
He also discovered the reason.
That's right, there's a natural spirit-gathering array hidden inside the gourd!
That's how Wu Aiguo was able to extricate himself from his work as a water carrier.
With the effects of the giant gourd, he no longer needed to go to the Five Elders Peak Secret Realm unless he needed a large amount of spiritual spring water.
This alone eliminates the risk of Wu Aiguo being exposed.
Of course, when outsiders are present, there will be absolutely no water in the four gourds.
Wu Aiguo would only personally prepare it when he needed it.
The four gourds were also placed in the study.
Generally, without his permission, neither his wife, Comrade Shen Ying, nor his two little ones, Xiao An and Xiao Le, would easily enter the house.
Wu Aiguo had a feeling that, both domestically and internationally, secret realms and extraordinary items seemed to be gradually appearing. He just didn't know how many secret realms existed in the world.
He was eager to see what the other secret realms were like!
