Spores were the first step to becoming a mushroom. Unlike plants, spores could not photosynthesize, which meant that they could not support themselves. Therefore, they had to find a support.

And now, Jiang BeiRan was their chosen ” backer “.

As long as they could develop into fungi, they would be able to obtain a large amount of nutrients from Jiang Beiran’s body for their growth.

If it was some ” friendly ” spores, then while they absorbed the nutrients of the ‘ backer “, they would also provide the ” backer ” with water and necessary elements for survival. It was a win-win relationship.

However, some spores were purely rogues. They only cared about absorbing nutrients. As for whether the ” backer ” died or not, it had nothing to do with them.

The batch of spores that had entered Jiang Beiran’s body were a bunch of hooligans. After being sucked into Jiang Beiran’s body, they quickly scattered and searched for a place to have a good meal.

“Swish… This body looked like it had plenty of nutrients.”

A muscular man wiped the saliva from his mouth and was about to pounce on the delicious blood when he saw a pure white figure appear in front of him.

“Move aside! Otherwise, I’ll be very heavy-handed.”

The white figure only smiled slightly and then punched out.

Looking at the spores in front of him, the white figure clapped his hands and instantly disappeared.

‘ What’s going on?!”

“What are these white devils??How could he be so cruel? Ah! ”

Amidst waves of screams, the spores disappeared in batches, not even having the chance to take a step forward.

After inhaling two mouthfuls of the spore powder, Jiang Beiran more or less understood the function of the spores.

‘Parasitism.’

Unlike the poison powder that could cause organ failure, spores were actually more troublesome to deal with because once they formed in the target’s body, it was difficult to eliminate them.

The reason was that the poison could be neutralized with an antidote to achieve the purpose of detoxification.

However, spores were not suitable. They could absorb whatever spirit pills and elixirs you ate, and they would not treat you as an outsider.

Therefore, if one wanted to get rid of the spores that had completed parasitism, they could only use physical means. However, as long as these spores survived, they would rapidly reproduce. When the time came, the body would be filled with rooted mushrooms. Cutting them was no different from cutting their own flesh.

However, if he could not deal with the spores, they would completely drain the body they relied on. This made Jiang Beiran think about the man’s death. It should be covered in mushrooms.’

Understanding how troublesome the spore powder was, Jiang Beiran waved it away and walked over to Qu Yangze.””Can you absorb these spores back into your body?”

Qu Yangze nodded and opened his mouth to suck all the spore powder into his stomach.

‘What a talent…’

Jiang Beiran patted Qu Yangze’s shoulder and said,””Come with me to the pill refining room later.”

Although the mushroom had grown out of Qu Yangze’s body, Jiang Beiran had discovered that its quality was exceptionally high. It did not lose out to the ten-year-old or hundred-year-old precious materials.

If this precious material was taken and eaten directly, it would undoubtedly be a huge waste.

Therefore, Jiang Beiran planned to refine it into a poison pill the next time, one that Qu Yangze could consume as a tonic.

After watching the mushroom explosion, Jiang Beiran led the group back to the living room and sat down in front of the table to make some flower tea.

“Any other gains?” Jiang Beiran asked as he poured himself a glass of water.

“No more.” Wu Qingce and Qu Yangze shook their heads.

Nodding, Jiang Beiran concentrated on brewing the flower tea.

At noon the next day, Jiang Beiran brought Wu Qingce and Qu Yangze to a private room in a restaurant. This was the place where Wen Yunyan had arranged to meet Gu Qinghuan.

Jiang Beiran had come because Gu Qinghuan had said that he only had a 90% chance of escaping unscathed.

Then he had to ensure that that 10% would not happen.

As for bringing Wu Qingce and Qu Yangze along, he only hoped that they could see Qing Huan’s negotiation skills and learn from her.

Gu Qinghuan cupped his hands in the direction where his senior brother had ‘ disappeared ” , sat down cross-legged, and waited quietly.

After the time for half an incense stick to burn, there was a knock on the door. Gu Qinghuan opened her eyes and said, ‘”Please come in.”

With a creak, the wooden door was pushed open. A young man who looked very gloomy looked into the private room, then strode in and asked Gu Qinghuan, “”Are you the Gu Guanchao that Guan San mentioned?”

“Yes, I am.” Gu Qinghuan nodded.” You must be the Third Young Master of the

Wen family.””

“Yes, it’s me.” Wen Yunyan walked to the table and sat down cross-legged.

“I wonder if Young Master Wen likes wine or tea?”Gu Qinghuan took out a wine bowl and a teacup at the same time and asked Wen Yunyan.

“Anything is fine. This time, I want you to help me investigate something.”

Seeing Wen Yunyan so decisive and straightforward, Gu Qinghuan poured a bowl of wine and pushed it in front of Wen Yunyan.

“Young Master Wen, do you want to ask about your big brother?”

“That’s right. As long as you can find evidence that those bastards from the Liu Family killed my big brother, I can satisfy you with anything you want.”

Gu Qinghuan took a sip of wine and smiled.””ls Young Master Wen serious?”

“I, Wen Yunyan, have always kept my word.”

“Then please allow me to ask Young Master Wen a few questions.”

“Tell me, as long as it can help you find evidence, I’ll answer anything..”
