Chapter 006: Needle Technique

Oh, you may go." Chen Duo replied.

Xu Lai chuckled and said, "In the eyes of a mage, there are no distinctions between men and women"

Found it! Chen Duo shouted, filled a cup with ice cubes, and ran back. She saw Kang Lu lying on the bed, her skin appearing increasingly fair, while the dark tattoo on her body looked even more vivid and dripping.

Weren't you quite happy earlier?" Chen Duo scoffed, going to the wardrobe to find a loose nightgown to change for Kang Lu.

The two individuals took the elevator up, and Chen Duo searched for the door number: "Here!" She grasped the doorknob and turned it, but it was locked very securely

Do you know where she lives? Xu asked

Chen Duo instinctively let out an "oh" and hurried out of the room, closing the door behind her. When she returned, she saw Xu Lai had already carried Kang Lu to the bed

"Her father is coming over right away," Chen Duo said as she hung up the phone

Chen Duo stared wide-eyed, is this magic? She has played with such fine needles before, delicate and soft, easily breakable with the slightest mistake. How could this thing possibly penetrate ice? And it was done with a spring?

Xu Lai took an ice cube from the cup and placed it in the center of Kang Lu's eyebrows, then took several more ice cubes and placed them on other parts of her body

At that moment, she had no time to ask what was going on and hurriedly followed him inside, feeling for the switch to turn it on. She then saw Xu Lai's figure flicker and already enter one of the rooms

Isn't it a case of love and hate? Xu Lai smiled

"Which building?" Xu asked

"It's nothing, look over there." Xu Lai hurriedly called out to her

Chen Duo was startled: "Could it be that she had an accident on her way back? A car crash or something? Should I call the police and have them check her home first?"

The silhouette technique is effective within eight hours; the paper figure spontaneously igniting indicates that the original owner's body has undergone a significant change, such as a serious injury or direct death said Xu

You should just accept it! It's strange that Chen Duoxin would believe that. What should we do now?

Xu Lai smiled and said, "There are many ways to remove tattoos, and it is not necessarily required to use this method. However, this method is relatively gentle and causes the least harm to the human body"

The two people had been sitting in the room for about half an hour when they heard a knock at the door.

Chen Duo recalled what he had said before, that as long as the shadow tattoo remained, there was still hope for the person, and he finally felt a slight sense of calmness.

Chen Duo has a friend who studies traditional Chinese medicine and often asks her to practice acupuncture and the like, but she has never seen anyone perform acupuncture in this manner

Moreover, it is generally required to leave the needle in the body for a while; how can one just insert it and leave immediately, without pausing for a moment like he does?

But what is this guy? With his speed of needlework, like a sudden storm, even an average person would not necessarily be able to achieve it by just stabbing randomly.

A question mark flashed through Chen Duo's mind, but there was no time to think further, so she hurriedly chased after it

One could say so as well. Xu Lai smiled, went to pick up the needle, and then collected the few ice cubes, taking them to the restroom to flush them down the toilet

Oh. Chen Duo ran to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator to search.

Xu Lai casually took a fine needle from the needle box, flicked it with his finger, and the silver needle glimmered slightly as it landed on the ice block between Kang Lu's eyebrows, penetrating the ice block and piercing into the skin.

"Master, Tianxiang Garden on Jiangnan Avenue, please try to be quick," Chen Duo shouted

The two individuals hurriedly got out of the car and rushed into the community

Xu Lai : `` ... ... ''

Chen Duo stood to one side, so nervous that she did not dare to breathe. She watched as several ice cubes fell onto Kang Lu, emitting wisps of white vapor, yet they did not melt.

"Then it wasn't her who folded it," Xu said

Speaking of which, when he opened the wardrobe in the cloakroom, Xu Lai took a glance and indeed found it to be a chaotic mess

He emphasized the tone on "that kind of" and Chen Duo immediately understood that it referred to an abnormal situation. If they were to rashly report it to the police, it could potentially make matters worse

"Find her a piece of clothing to wear, and don't say that I have seen her completely," Xu Lai said as he entered the room.

I... I understand." Chen Duo was taken aback when she saw Xu Lai's serious expression

After a while, the blood-red tattoos on Kang Lu completely disappeared, while the several ice blocks had entirely transformed into a crimson color

"Has this sucked out the shadow tattoo?" Chen Duo asked anxiously

Take me there

"How is she...?" Chen Duo's face turned pale with anxiety

Chen Duo can no longer be oblivious to this. Since it is not Kang Lu's arrangement, it can only be the work of the person who harmed Kang Lu. What kind of perverse individual could this possibly be

"I don't have it," Chen Duo said, as she rummaged through the nearby table and found Kang Lu's phone, but unfortunately, it was password protected

Chen Duo listened, somewhat understanding: "You seem to know quite a lot."

Chen Duo noticed that Kang Lu's chest was gently rising and falling, indicating that she had regained her breath. She reached out to touch her forehead, and her body temperature was beginning to rise.

Should I knock on the door or call the property management to pry it open? Chen Duo was anxiously pacing back and forth, but before she could finish her thought, she turned around and found the door open, as that person had already pushed the door and entered.

Chen Duo glanced at the website https://www.hetushu.com, where there was a white short-sleeved shirt and jeans, as well as neatly folded undergarments stacked together.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Stop wasting words!" Chen Duo was angry

Chen Duo was just about to ask, "What do you need the needle for?" when she saw the person flick their finger, and the needle had already landed right in the center of Kang Lu's brow. However, as soon as the needle settled, it was already lifted out and subsequently fell behind Kang Lu's right ear

Xu said: "Close the door when you go back"

"It really is a birthday, how cliché," Chen Duo said critically as she flipped through her contacts and found a person named Kang Wenlong, dialing his number.

Oh! Although Chen Duo did not know what had happened, she sensed that the situation was not good. Without changing her clothes, she put on her shoes and hurried downstairs with Xu Lai.

As the two were conversing, Chen Duo noticed the blood-red tattoo on Kang Lu's body gradually fading, which left her greatly astonished

The driver glanced at the two through the rearview mirror and said, "Alright," as the vehicle immediately headed towards Jiangnan Avenue

Building 6, Unit 1, 1801, she lives here alone, Chen Duo said while running

"Notify her family to come over, do you have their phone number?" Xu said

Chen Duo was so angry that she gritted her teeth, truly wishing she could kick him with one swift motion

This is called knowing oneself and knowing the other; hasn't she also seen right through me!" Chen Duo said irritably

However, to say that he is being reckless does not seem quite right. Chen Duo was left dumbfounded, momentarily forgetting what she wanted to say.

As soon as Chen Duo's gaze followed there, the needle had already dropped elsewhere. This needle rose and fell with astonishing speed, never pausing for even a moment

As soon as I entered, I saw Kang Lu lying on the ground without any clothes, her body covered in blood-red runes

It is crucial to understand that precision is of utmost importance in acupuncture. Even for a skilled acupuncturist, inserting a needle at a specific point must be done slowly and with the utmost steadiness.

Xu Lai returned to the living room, strolled around the entire house, and finally turned back to Kang Lu's room, pointing at a pile of clothes on the bedside and saying: "These clothes are yours, right?"

The two people in the back were whispering to each other, while the driver in the front frequently glanced back, unsure of what strange conversation the young couple was having.

However, after trying a few times, she managed to open it

After Xu Lai memorized all these runes, he took out a needle box from his pocket and retrieved a triangular needle, pinching it between his fingertips

Chen Duoyi thought to herself, after all, having been a mage for more than ten years, one must possess some skills regardless of the circumstances

"But that's not right. How could this guy fold clothes, and so neatly?" Chen Duo muttered, "If you don't believe me, go take a look at her wardrobe"

At the entrance of Zijin Garden, a taxi happened to stop, and the two immediately got into the car

Ah! Chen Duo was astonished

Xu Lai cannot guarantee this. According to what is said, after Kang Lu expels the dirty water, she should be feeling fatigued and should return home to rest. At this moment, one can only hope that she truly encountered an incident at home.

While she was astonished, Xu Lai had already swiftly placed a fine needle on each ice block, and then set the needle box aside.

Will she get into trouble elsewhere? Chen Duo was anxious

"It's nothing, the tattoo is still there," Xu said.

Chen Duo was just lying in bed, studying this paper figure back and forth, when unexpectedly, the paper figure suddenly ignited and caught fire

Oh. Chen Duo finally breathed a sigh of relief and curiously asked: "Is this the method used to remove the yin tattoo? Fortunately, her family still had ice cubes, otherwise it would have been a disaster"

"Is she alright?" Chen Duo asked anxiously

He ran over to see Xu Lai but did not immediately take action to save the person. Instead, he stood by the bed, staring intently at Kang Lu's body, and could not help but angrily say: "What are you doing? Why aren't you saving the person!"

It is mine. Of course, Chen Duo could recognize it at a glance; it was the outfit she had lent to Kang Lu to wear.

"Life has been saved, thanks to your early discovery," Xu said

In this pitch darkness, how is this fellow able to move so quickly

"You stay here for a while, I will go somewhere else to take a look," Xu said.

"Of course, after all, I am also a mage," Xu Lai smiled

"No, is ice cream acceptable?" Chen Duo's voice inquired

"Go see if there are any ice cubes." At some point, Xu Lai had already stopped the needle.

From the perspective of burning paper effigies, it should be related to that kind of thing said Xu

Hello, is this Uncle Kang? I am a classmate of Kang Lu, she had an accident... Oh, it's nothing, don't worry, I am watching over her right now... Yes, yes, I will wait for you to come over

Then let's wait a moment. Xu came over and dragged a chair to sit down, "You seem to know your classmate quite well."

Upon closer inspection, Chen Duo noticed that the bloodstains on Kang Lu were fading, while the few transparent ice blocks on her body were now infused with a hint of crimson, which was becoming increasingly pronounced

"What exactly happened to her?" Chen Duo gasped for breath and asked Xu Lai, as she was still feeling dazed.

"Do not make noise." Xu interrupted her, his gaze still fixed on Kang Lu, meticulously examining her from head to toe

Tianxiang Garden is located near Jiangning University, not far from Zijinyuan, and with the car moving quickly, it takes less than twenty minutes to arrive
