Chapter 335: Chapter 335: Extraordinary Chinese Figures
Yusuf Zuck did not know how to activate the Blood Beads again; the first time was by electric shock, and the second time was during his time in America, sparked by the death of Lena Brown, so the activation of the Blood Beads lacked any pattern.
He certainly couldn’t get electrocuted again, nor could he re-experience the helplessness of a loved one dying before his eyes, so he was unable to find a method to activate the Blood Beads.
Of course, he would try various methods in the future to discover the way, and once he found it, he would become a true master.
After breakfast, Fleur Carson took him to the airport early, and once there, he also found time to call Mia.
However, the call was abruptly cut off after one ring, followed by a text message: "Ignoring you, hmph!"
Seeing these words, Yusuf laughed. Mia was probably with Ruth Wilcox at the moment, so it was inconvenient for her to answer the phone.
As long as she was with Ruth, Yusuf felt reassured. In fact, after Ruth’s confession the day before, he did feel a bit of regret, but he also felt much more at ease after being honest. He did not want to engage with Ruth based on deceitful emotions, especially since she was extraordinary.
"Thank you," Yusuf replied with a message, and then made calls to Miles O’Brian, Samuel Ross, Marlon Shepherd, Jerome Hart, and even Sonny King from the Inner Mongolia pharmaceutical factory.
On the phone, Sonny King laughed, calling Yusuf a chairman who didn’t take care of things, but before the end of the year, namely before the Spring Festival, he hoped Yusuf would visit the factory to hold an annual meeting and set goals for the next year.
Yusuf thought about it and agreed. He had high hopes for the pharmaceutical factory, and once it started making money, it would be extraordinarily profitable, even more so than a five-star hotel.
At seven fifty-five in the morning, Ricky Zuck appeared in Yusuf’s view, carrying a large bag on his back, seemingly packed with many personal belongings.
"What’s with the big bag? Going on a trip?" Yusuf asked, puzzled.
"What trip? That old woman’s Miao village is in the mountains, and even though it’s winter, there are still bugs and snakes in the Yunnan-Guizhou area, so I packed some emergency items, tents, and the like."
"Right, right, my brother always thinks things through," Yusuf agreed, flattering him.
"Stop the flattery, carry the bag!" Ricky enjoyed the respect Yusuf showed him; after all, he was nearly sixty, and Yusuf ought to show some respect to his elders.
Yusuf carried the bag, Ricky got the boarding pass, and then the two of them boarded the flight to Guiyang.
"The old lady we’re going to find is Miao, known in the jianghu as ’Poisonous Miao Woman,’ a character who became famous very early on. There’s nobody with a reputation in the Yunnan-Guizhou area who doesn’t know her," Ricky finally began to formally introduce the old lady they were mainly seeking this time, as they were on the plane.
"The Poisonous Miao Woman is full of poison; I’ve heard she also raises venomous creatures, and keeping a personal venomous pet with her allows her to release poison and kill people with a wave of her hand. Of course, she’s also a renowned doctor. Back in the day when the Miao village was secluded in the mountains and fairly backward, she was able to cure all the sick in the village."
"Moreover, during the years of the anti-Japanese war, she saved many soldiers too."
"Wait a minute, how old is she?" Yusuf’s scalp tingled; if she had been saving people during the war, she must be nearly a hundred years old, if not more.
"Hehe, I don’t know exactly how old she is, but she’s definitely over a hundred. People who raise venomous pets tend to live long lives, the pets can save lives. The old lady is magical and formidable!"
"Then how did you meet her?" Yusuf asked, curious.
"In earlier years, I enjoyed traveling and seeking out hidden masters, so I went to visit various places. To the north, I went as far as Mohe in Heilongjiang, to the south to Sanya, to the west I’ve even been to the border with Kazakhstan!"
"I’ve traveled to so many places over the years, so I’ve also made some friends in the jianghu. Wherever you go with me, you’ll always be treated to good food and drink!"
"Mmm, no need to search anymore because I am that reclusive expert, right, hahaha!" Yusuf Zuck laughed heartily.
"You?" Everest Zuck glanced at him, thought for a moment, and actually nodded: "You could be ranked in the top four among the reclusive experts I have met, fourth at most! I"
"You’ve really met reclusive experts?" Yusuf Zuck asked curiously.
Everest Zuck rolled his eyes: "In this vast land of China, with a population of over a billion people, there is an endless stream of remarkable individuals like herrings swimming across the river. What would a little kid like you understand?"
"Then tell me why I can only be ranked fourth. You’ve seen my Flying Sword technique and my Ninjutsu, isn’t there anyone better than me?" Yusuf Zuck didn’t understand.
"It’s not that they’re better than you, even though they can’t turn invisible or use a Flying Sword, but they surpass you in other aspects, for instance, their morals!"
"I’ll spit in your face!" Yusuf Zuck fell backward in frustration, feeling that Everest Zuck was subtly criticizing his character.
"Hehe." Everest Zuck chuckled softly: "Actually, to be deemed extraordinary is not simply about having the ability to kill with ease. One must consider the person’s character, knowledge, and contributions to the present world."
"Although you possess amazing abilities that they do not, do you have knowledge? Is your character good? What have you contributed to today’s world?" Everest Zuck asked him a series of probing questions.
"Aside from making a bit of money and killing a few people, I am utterly useless, ashamed!" Yusuf Zuck truly felt ashamed; he had great abilities but had hardly ever done any good deeds. He had thought about doing charity and acts of kindness, but the opportunity had never arisen.
"What abilities do the three people who are ranked above me possess? They must be skilled, right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t call them extraordinary." Yusuf Zuck was eager to find out.
"One is a Martial Arts Master, one is a Yin-Yang Heavenly Master, and the last one is old lady Miao, who has saved countless people!"
"So a fighter, a Heavenly Master, and a Pharmacist, right?" Yusuf Zuck chuckled: "Since we’re not doing anything, tell me about the other two."
"There’s not much to say." Everest Zuck shook his head: "The Martial Arts Master is named Allan Zuck, and his light body technique is absolutely incredible—his signature skill is crossing rivers by hopping on a single reed!"
"Crossing rivers on a reed? Is that for real?" Yusuf Zuck had heard that Bodhidharma had crossed the Yellow or the Yangtze River by stepping on a reed, and now this Allan Zuck could do it too?
"Of course it’s true. There are many things you haven’t seen. So yes, you are extraordinary, but so is he—he can cross the Yangtze by stepping on a reed. Although you can turn invisible and fly with your sword, can you try hopping across the Yangtze on a reed?"
Yusuf Zuck immediately nodded: "Sure, just fish me out downstream after I inevitably drown!"
"What about the Yin-Yang Heavenly Master? What’s his story?" Yusuf Zuck continued to inquire.
"He’s even more incredible," Everest Zuck sighed deeply: "His name is Bowe Wilcox, extremely formidable. He’s an expert in star watching, face reading, disaster prediction, and talisman casting!"
"You can do that too, right?" Yusuf Zuck was puzzled.
"He’s a true great; he can foresee national disasters, such as where there will be floods or earthquakes, and even their locations. He can make pretty accurate predictions, whereas at most I can see a little feng shui or catch some minor spirits. I can’t compare to him!"
"If what you say is true, then he truly is an extraordinary person and a great master. I must meet him if I get the opportunity!" Yusuf Zuck exclaimed.
Everest Zuck shook his head: "He’s nowhere to be found now, alive or dead."
"However, I have heard something over these past few years. I heard of a circle unknown to the public, where all sorts of extraordinary individuals gather. They meet annually or every few years. But who knows if it’s true. If I could meet these extraordinary individuals of Chinese heritage just once in my lifetime, I would die without regrets!"
