It was a middle-aged man wearing a long robe and glasses. He looked rather odd.
His face was full of anxiety and fear, and he couldn't help but gasp for breath.
Jing Hu's reaction was completely different. He first let out a long sigh before asking, "What's the rush? Has the cage been broken? "
The man replied, "No."
"If the cage hasn't been broken, nothing major will happen. Let's go and take a look," Jing Hu said.
The two of them ignored Yang Xuan and walked out.
Yang Xuan pondered for a moment, and also felt curious. Thus, he followed behind.
As they walked, Jing Hu suddenly asked, "What's your cultivation level?"
This question was definitely not directed at the middle-aged man with glasses, so Yang Xuan replied, "Heaven Level."
Jing Hu did not turn around. He nodded and said, "That's fine. Otherwise, it would be dangerous."
He did not explain much. He walked quickly and met many people along the way. They all stood at the side and bowed respectfully, calling him Sir. However, they ignored Yang Xuan behind them.
They walked to the back of the Drug Department.
Behind them was a large stone building. Outside, there were dozens of armed guards surrounding the building.
Before they got close, Yang Xuan heard a ghastly wail coming from the building. The sound was sharp and ear-piercing. It was as unpleasant as it could be.
Yang Xuan tried to use his Divine Telekinesis to probe, but when he got close to the stone building again, he felt a strong push.
Jing Hu walked out of the building and someone came up to him.
"Sir, he seems to be crazier than before."
A middle-aged man wearing a similar robe said with a worried expression.
Jing Hu nodded and said, "Let's go in and take a look."
"Yes!" the people around him said at the same time.
Jing Hu took two steps and turned to Yang Xuan. He said, "You come with us."
The others looked at Yang Xuan strangely. They seemed to be curious about why Jing Hu had asked him to come along.
However, they did not ask.
Yang Xuan originally wanted to leave, but since Jing Hu said so, he didn't object, so he followed behind.
Opening the tightly locked door, that kind of ear-piercing sound suddenly rushed out, actually forming a huge sound wave, blowing the clothes of the few people.
Jing Hu acted as if she didn't hear anything and walked in first.
After passing through a long and narrow staircase, they arrived in front of a large iron door tens of meters below the ground.
"Open the door," Mirror Lake said.
A robed man stepped forward and inserted a strangely shaped key into the door. After twisting it a few times, the door opened with a click.
The moment the door opened, Yang Xuan felt an extremely cold aura flash past, causing the surrounding temperature to drop by a few degrees.
When he wanted to chase after it, the gloomy and cold aura had already disappeared.
Behind the door was a very spacious underground hall. In the middle of the hall stood a very large black iron cage. In the cage was a man in ragged clothes with disheveled hair. His face couldn't be seen clearly.
At that moment, the man was howling non-stop. At the same time, he crazily shook the iron cage, almost causing it to fall over.
For some reason, looking at the madman in the cage, Yang Xuan felt a sense of deja vu.
Jing Hu took two steps forward and suddenly stopped and asked, "Did you inject the tranquilizer?"
"We injected 100 units of tranquilizer, but it didn't have any effect," the robed man reported.
"Inject another 500 units," Jing Hu said without hesitation.
"But sir …" The robed man who opened the door hesitated. "500 units, we can't guarantee the survival of the experimental specimen."
"Don't worry, this experimental subject is different from ordinary people. 500 units won't kill him," Jing Hu explained.
The robed man nodded and took out a long metal rod from somewhere. After pouring some kind of transparent liquid into the rod, he aimed at the madman in the cage.
Chi!
After a soft sound, the transparent liquid turned into an extremely thin needle and pierced the madman's chest.
Roar!
The madman seemed to feel something and screamed crazily. His strength increased in an instant and he actually bent the metal bars of the cage.
Everyone's expression changed and they subconsciously took a few steps back.
Jing Hu didn't move at all. Instead, she took two steps forward as if she was observing the madman's actions.
After a few minutes, the madman finally collapsed in the cage. There was no sound. If it wasn't for his chest rising and falling, people would have thought that he was dead.
Everyone let out a sigh of relief.
The moment the madman fell, the long hair covering his face parted, revealing the madman's face.
The moment he saw the madman's face, Yang Xuan was shocked. His body trembled and he instantly came before the cage. He stared at the man in the cage.
A few of the men in long robes looked at him strangely. Even Mister Mirror Hu looked at Yang Xuan strangely.
Yang Xuan looked at the madman for a while. His eyes were strange, but he didn't say anything. He just took two steps back.
Although Jing Hu found it strange, now wasn't the time to ask.
He directly said, "Prepare the No. 72 injection."
"Yes!" The robed man who opened the door answered and turned to leave.
Not long after, he walked in with a metal syringe.
Jing Hu took the syringe from him and moved her left hand slightly. The madman lying on the ground was involuntarily sucked onto the bars and his chest was exposed.
Jing Hu first used her finger to check his pulse. Then, she waved her hand and the huge needle pierced into the madman's chest.
The madman didn't even move. The 500 units of tranquilizer had obviously taken effect. It paralyzed his nervous system and made him unable to react to external stimuli.
After the injection, the madman collapsed in the cage again.
Jing Hu squatted beside the cage and observed for a while. Then, she said, "Jia Shen, inject him with the No. 36 injection in an hour. Then, inject him with the No. 109 injection every three hours for 24 hours."
Jia Shen was the robed man who opened the door. He was also Jing Hu's disciple. He said respectfully, "Yes, sir."
After observing for a while, Jing Hu stood up and left. She left the other disciples there to observe the madman's reaction.
Before Yang Xuan left with her, his eyes flitted past the madman's face. His expression was strange.
After walking for a while, Yang Xuan suddenly asked, "Mister Jing Hu, is he the madman who killed many people?"
Jing Hu smiled. "I didn't expect the news to spread like this. Yes, he is the one who killed nine of our employees. "
After pausing for a moment, Jing Hu continued, "He was originally a new alchemist that we recruited a few years ago. He had always been fine, but at the beginning of this year, he went out once. After he came back, he became taciturn. His entire person seemed to have changed. Not long after, he suddenly went crazy and brazenly attacked, killing nine alchemists in succession."
Yang Xuan's expression became even more strange. He asked, "His cultivation doesn't seem high. How did he kill so many people?"
Jing Hu shook her head. "Don't think that his cultivation isn't high when he's good. That's because he's under the control of drugs. Once he completely goes crazy, his cultivation is close to the Emperor level. Even I am no match for him. Before, it was the Imperial Guards who subdued him."
Yang Xuan was silent for a while. Then, he asked, "What's his name?"
"Lin Tongfang. Why? Do you know him? "Jing Hu looked at Yang Xuan.
"This is the first time I've seen him. I'm just curious why he's so strong." Yang Xuan's expression was calm as he shook his head.
Jing Hu didn't suspect anything. She sighed. "That's why we used him as a test subject."
After a moment of silence, Yang Xuan suddenly said, "Mister Jing Hu, I have some research on the soul. I would like to participate in this research."
