Chapter 118: Spiritual Fusion Pill

  Upon learning that Huang Rong was only in kindergarten at the time, Tang Xiao Sheng felt slightly surprised but also not entirely unacceptable. Since discovering Mei Chao Feng's transmigration, he knew that there must be more than one batch of transmigrants and their transmigration times might also be different.

  Since Huang Rong was in kindergarten, she is estimated to be around five or six years old, while Guo Xiang is already sixteen years old at this time. The two are obviously not people from the same period. Although the daughter is older than her mother, such a situation sounds a bit inconceivable and even extremely absurd in real life. However, if analyzed from the perspective of parallel universe theory, it's actually not difficult to understand.

  Huang Rong and Guo Xiang's ages are so abnormal because they actually come from different time and space. Huang Rong is still Huang Rong, and Guo Xiang is also Guo Xiang, but they are in two parallel universes.

  To put it simply, Huang Rong comes from the world of "The Legend of the Condor Hero", while Guo Xiang comes from the world of "The Return of the Condor Hero".

  According to Mei Chaojun, Huang Rong's consciousness had recovered for three months. As Tang Xiaosheng knew, after passing through the six-month mental confusion, both Little Dragon Girl and Guo Xiang regained their normal consciousness. In this way, it is not difficult to infer that Huang Rong crossed into the 21st century approximately nine months ago.

  It's already the end of October, so Huang Rong's crossing should be around January this year. Little Dragon Girl and Guo Xiang crossed over at the beginning of last year, a whole year earlier than Huang Rong.

  Combining both, it's not difficult to come to a conclusion: they indeed crossed over in batches.

  To confirm his thoughts, Tang Xiao Sheng sank down and asked Mei Chao Feng, who was still kneeling in front of him: "How did you find Rong Er?"

  "I reported back to Master, I possessed Lin Meimei's body in January this year and have been working at the Beijing Wujing Hospital under her identity. My father is the deputy director of the Beijing Mental Health Hospital. In mid-June, when I went to visit my father at the hospital, I unintentionally learned from a female nurse that there was a five-year-old girl with schizophrenia who kept claiming she was Huang Rong. After learning this news, I found the little girl and discovered that she was actually Rong'er."

  After hearing Mei Chaojun's words, Tang Xiaosheng only knew that Mei Chaojun and Huang Rong had crossed over at the same time, both at the end of January this year. It seems that they are from the same batch of crossers.

  "Not true!"

  At this time, Tang Xiaosheng's eyebrows suddenly tightened, and he suddenly discovered a problem. If Mei Chaojun also crossed over in January this year, logically speaking, she should also need to be mentally disordered for six months, but from her previous statement, it can be seen that her spirit seems to have been normal all the time, which is obviously suspicious.

  At this thought, Tang Xiaosheng's face sank and he coldly interrogated: "Chao Feng, you're quite bold, daring to deceive your master!"

  "Master, forgive me, I dare not. What Chaofeng said is true, there's not a single false word." Mei Chaofeng saw that Tang Xiaosheng didn't believe her and hastily explained with an anxious tone.

  Tang Xiao Sheng still had a stern face, and in a deep voice, he asked: "As far as I know, after crossing over, due to the fusion of two memories, the crosser will be confused and need half a year to recover. And you crossed over at the end of January this year, your self-awareness should only recover normally by the end of July. But in mid-June this year, you had already infiltrated the "Eagle Shooting Heroes" crew, using "Dian Zhi Shen Tong" to cut off the steel wire that was suspending Wei Ya, which is clearly contradictory. If it's not deception, what is it?"

  Mei Chao Feng immediately clarified, "Master said it right, after crossing over, the crosser will indeed have a mental breakdown for six months. But as for why I didn't go crazy, it's because I took some medicine!"

  Medicine?

  Dr. Lin Meimei, possessed by the spirit of Mei Chao Feng, is a brain science expert and one of the most authoritative figures in the domestic brain science field. Since resigning from Harvard University's Spirit Research Institute last year and returning to China, Dr. Lin has been conducting research on brain-related aspects at the Beijing Armed Police Hospital.

  Due to her father's influence, Lin Meimei has a strong interest in mental illness. In fact, neurology and psychiatry are inseparable, and many psychiatric hospitals are even called neurological hospitals.

  In mental hospitals, the most common mental illness is schizophrenia. Therefore, Lin Meimei has been looking for ways to treat this disease all along. So, after returning home, she devoted most of her energy to research work in this area.

  After nearly a year of exploration, she developed a new type of antipsychotic drug at the beginning of this year and temporarily named it "Mind Fusion Pill". Just by listening to the name of the medicine, it's not hard to know its effect. The object it applies to is patients with schizophrenia.

  It's just that this medicine has only been developed, and whether it really works is unknown. Just as Lin Meimei was about to start testing the efficacy of "Spirit Fusion Pill", unfortunately, on a night in late January this year, when Lin Meimei was doing an experiment in the laboratory, Mei Chao Feng's soul happened to pass through the city and attached itself to her body.

  After crossing over, Lin Meimei's soul memory and Mei Chaofeng's soul memory also began to merge with each other, and she also showed signs of mental derangement, her mind unclear.

  In the chaos, she accidentally ingested the "Spirit Fusion Pill" from the laboratory. As a result, after taking the medicine, the fusion speed of the two souls accelerated by dozens of times. Overnight, Mei Chao Feng's autonomous consciousness was slightly awakened, and unlike other crossers, there was no mental disorder.

  In the following six days, Mei Chaofeng took another six "Spirit Fusion Pills", and her spirit basically recovered to normal. Not only did she recover some of her own memories, but she also possessed most of Lin Meimei's memories. After taking the "Spirit Fusion Pill", the fusion speed of the two souls was nearly 30 times higher than that of ordinary travelers!

  It was precisely because of this that Mei Chaojun did not end up like Huang Rong and Guo Xiang, being sent to a mental hospital, nor had anyone ever discovered anything abnormal about her mind.

  After recovering from his spiritual injury, Mei Chao Feng worked at the Beijing Wujing Hospital while secretly practicing martial arts.

  However, at the beginning, she did not cultivate the martial arts of "Jiuyin Zhenjing" because she knew that she lacked the inner skill of the first half of "Jiuyin Zhenjing", which made it easy to go astray. Therefore, she only cultivated internal skills and martial arts such as "Danzhi Shentong".

  She spent several months like this, sticking to her routine and living a normal modern life. Until July, when an event changed everything.

  In the city, Lin Meimei has a boyfriend who is the boss of Jinghua City Jinling Electronics Co., Ltd. and is a multimillionaire. The two have a good relationship and were originally planning to get married at the beginning of next year.

  However, in mid-July one day, Lin Meimei (Mei Chao Feng) suddenly discovered that her boyfriend had an affair and was supporting a female white-collar worker outside.

  After learning all this, Mei Chaofeng was furious and on the verge of collapse, completely losing her rationality, turning love into hatred, and deciding to kill her boyfriend and the white-collar woman.

  Although this man is Lin Meimei's boyfriend, not Mei Chaofeng's boyfriend, after Mei Chaofeng ate the "Spirit Fusion Pill", her soul merged with Lin Meimei's soul to a very high degree, merging most of Lin Meimei's emotional memories. In this way, when Lin Meimei loses love, it is basically equivalent to Mei Chaofeng losing love, and she feels all the pain of lost love as if it were her own.

  But Xiaolongnü and Guo Xiang's situation is different from that of Mei Chaojun, because Xiaolongnü and Guo Xiang did not have a high degree of fusion with the original owner of their bodies, they only obtained a small part of trivial memories, many emotional memories were not fully integrated, which also led to them having no feelings towards their own fathers.

  After the break-up, Mei Chao Feng's personality changed greatly and she resumed practicing the "Nine Yin White Bone Claw". She started killing people everywhere, taking their skulls. The first pair of skulls she took were Lin Mei Mei's boyfriend and a white-collar woman. Thus, in the luxurious hotels of Jinghua City, appeared the first and second headless corpses.

  After killing her boyfriend, Mei Chao Feng still felt unrelenting and increasingly resentful. She thought that the reason why her boyfriend betrayed her was because he had power and status, which allowed him to play around with women outside.

  It was precisely because of this idea that Mei Chao Feng became more and more extreme, starting to hate men in society who had power and influence, especially those who were not faithful in love. She then began to search everywhere, and once she found such a person, she would show no mercy, directly taking their head, and then bringing it back to the cave on Nanfeng Mountain to practice the "Nine Yin White Bone Claw".

  Then, in the following months, she began killing corrupt officials and slaughtering dishonest merchants. One after another, headless corpses appeared in the streets of Jinghua City.

  After starting to kill people, Mei Chao Feng became more and more frenzied, the more frenzied she was, the more she killed. In the end, she even became addicted to killing, every one or two days, she would kill someone, completely unable to control herself.

  Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaosheng also secretly sighed in amazement. He had not expected that there was such a medicine as the Spiritual Fusion Pill, nor had he expected that there were so many things behind the headless corpse case, and even more unexpectedly, Mei Chao Feng was actually troubled by love.

  He sank and said to Mei Chao Feng: "Since you like killing people so much, I'll stand here, come and kill me!"

  Mei Chao Feng's body trembled slightly, his face suddenly lost color, and he said in a weak voice: "The disciple does not dare!"

  "What's there to be afraid of? You've taken the Spiritual Fusion Pill, your martial arts memories have all been restored, while I only recovered a small part, and am fundamentally not your match! Now that you want to kill me, it's probably not a difficult task!" Tang Xiaosheng analyzed. He said this not because he was intentionally showing weakness, but rather in order to make his plan of impersonating Huang Yaoshi more sustainable.

  Because Mei Chao Feng would think that Tang Xiao Sheng is Huang Yao Shi, mainly because he knows the "Nine Yin True Classics" and "Orchid Finger Touching Hand", but apart from these two sets of martial arts, Tang Xiao Sheng does not know any other martial arts of Huang Yao Shi. If investigated thoroughly, it will inevitably be exposed.

  It was precisely with this in mind that Tang Xiao Sheng proactively mentioned his own martial arts memories, claiming that he had only recovered a small part of his martial arts skills. In this way, he wouldn't reveal the flaws in Huang Yaoshi's other martial arts techniques for the time being.

  Mei Chao Feng now regards him as Huang Yao Shi, so it's naturally impossible for him to kill him again. Moreover, if they really start fighting, Tang Xiao Sheng also has a 60% chance of winning, because he has an advantage in internal strength, and with the "Double Hand Mutual Fighting Technique", as long as they clash head-on, he won't be at a disadvantage.

  As expected, after hearing his words, Mei Chaofeng's face changed greatly, thinking that her master was scolding her for her previous behavior. She trembled and said: "Master please forgive me, I previously mistakenly took you as an enemy and attacked you. If I had known it was you, even if I had a hundred times more courage, I wouldn't have dared to commit the crime of deceiving my master and destroying my ancestors."

  "You wouldn't dare!" Tang Xiaosheng retorted coldly, then asked, "I'm asking you, where is Rong'er right now?"

  "Reporting back to Master, Rong'er is currently at the disciple's residence."

  Mei Chao Feng found Little Huang Rong in a mental hospital and took her back to his home. A month ago, he sent Little Huang Rong to the No. 1 kindergarten in Jinghua City for study. Since today was just the weekend, school was closed, so she stayed at home playing.

  "Take me to find Rong'er right away!" As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Xiaosheng suddenly realized that Mei Chaofeng was only wearing a red underwear on her lower body at this time. If she went down the mountain like this, it would really affect social morals. He sank for a moment and said, "You stay here, I'll go find a pair of pants to help you."

  "Thank you, Master!"

  PS: An explanation about Huang Rong's age. According to the original "The Legend of the Condor Hero", Jin Yong explicitly wrote that Guo Jing is two years older than Huang Rong. However, if we reverse-engineer from the plot, it turns out that Huang Rong is actually a few years older than Guo Jing. This leads to a self-contradiction. Therefore, in "The Legend of the Condor Hero", the ages of Guo Jing and Huang Rong are a BUG.

  Although the new version of "The Legend of the Condor Hero" by Jin Yong made some changes to address the age issue, changing the ages also changed some plotlines. Considering that the audience for the new version is not as large as the original, this book will follow the old version.

  To put it simply, Mei Chaofeng had already left Peach Blossom Island when Huang Rong was born, and the two of them had met before, that's all.
