Song Shuhang was particularly aggrieved at this time.
Earlier, he had been rather lucky that the target of the appraisal technique was Miss Chu Chu. Therefore, the price he had to pay was just some blood spurting out of his right hand.
But if the secret technique was really out of control and was automatically appraising everything he was touching, Shuhang wouldn't survive even if he had a blood bank at his disposal!
As long as it was something like a rock or a plant, it wasn't such a big deal. But if he was careless and ended up falling on the floor, accidentally appraising the ground below... wouldn't he appraise the meteoroid on which the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion was built?
If an ordinary rock billion years old was capable of causing harm to his body, wouldn't he directly lose all his blood and die if he were to appraise a huge meteoroid that was only G.o.d knew how old?
Just as he was in deep thoughts, Song Shuhang felt a burning pain transmit from his finger to the rest of the body through his nerves.
”Rip~” Several wounds opened on his finger, and the wounds on one's fingers just happened to be particularly painful~
Again?
What is it this time?
Runes flashed through Song Shuhang's eyes, rus.h.i.+ng out of his eye sockets and falling onto the bandages covering his hand. Ultimately, they formed the picture of a clock.
Next, as the runes returned to his eyes, Song Shuhang got a new piece of information.
It's an ordinary bandage for medical use. It's sold in all big pharmacies and can stop bleeding. The disciples of the Chu Family always carry it with them in order to prepare for all possible contingencies.
”...” Song Shuhang.
What's the point of giving me this type of information!
The nearby Chu Chu furrowed her brows. She noticed that several other wounds had appeared on Song Shuhang's finger. There was definitely something wrong with what was happening because she clearly remembered that there wasn't any wound there earlier!
The wounds on Song Shuhang's body had basically appeared out of nowhere!
”Fellow Daoist Shuhang, were you affected by something similar to a magical curse?” Chu Chu asked. There were indeed some curse-like magical techniques that could cause strange injuries such as these.
”It should be something of the sort.” Song Shuhang faintly sighed. After much difficulty, he could somehow make use of the 'appraisal technique', but how could he switch it off now?
After saying this much, Song Shuhang stretched out his s.h.i.+vering hand and took the 'Gentle Dao Pill' out of his size-reducing purse to treat his wounds.
Just as he took the medicinal pill out, his innocent arm was caught in the crossfire. Thirty or so circular wounds appeared on his arm as blood started to flow out incessantly.
Afterward, runes flew out of his eyes and formed the picture of a clock. This time, the target of the appraisal technique was the 'Gentle Dao Pill'.
It's the 'Gentle Dao Pill 5th Star edition'. It's a wound-treating medicinal pill that can be taken orally. It can counter poisons, treat wounds, and help one recover their energy. Produced by the Ancient Lake Temple. It's a medicine with gentle properties.
”...” Song Shuhang.
Shuhang was speechless and didn't know what he was supposed to say at this time.
Was the technique planning to appraise all the items he had with him?
From the looks of it, everything that was coming in contact with his hands was going to be appraised!
It's over!
Should I consider writing a will just in case?
But... will the technique appraise the pen and the paper as well if I decide to write a will?
As soon as he imagined the tragic scene, Song Shuhang felt his eyes tearing up.
Chu Chu said, ”Fellow Daoist Shuhang, let's try to find a way to quickly get rid of the magical curse affecting your body!” She noticed that new wounds were continuously appearing on Song Shuhang's body, with blood spurting out vigorously. It seemed he was going through a very painful experience.
Song Shuhang swallowed down the Gentle Dao Pill 5th Star edition and clenched his teeth, saying, ”Miss Chu Chu, knock me out! Perhaps it's the only way to prevent me from continuously losing blood!”
Song Shuhang believed that the 'appraisal technique' would stop working if he was unconscious.
”Good!” Chu Chu quickly moved and arrived in front of Song Shuhang. Then, she stretched out her finger, poking at him.
Song Shuhang lowered his guard and didn't try to stop her.
Chu Chu used her finger to poke at his neck, operating her true qi at the same time.
In the next moment, Song Shuhang loudly fell to the ground, quickly losing his consciousness.
The effects of the Gentle Dao Pill 5th Star edition were superb. The wounds on Song Shuhang's body quickly healed under the effect of the medicinal pill.
After he was knocked out, the runes flas.h.i.+ng through his eyes finally stopped and disappeared.
As expected, asking Chu Chu to knock him out had turned out to be quite effective.
However... the 88,888 voices started to talk over inside Song Shuhang's head as soon as he lost consciousness, talking about things he didn't understand in the least.
These 88,888 voices wouldn't stop with their mumbling until Song Shuhang had thoroughly grasped the magical technique.
Chu Chu carried on her shoulder the fainted Song Shuhang, dragging him and placing him in the corner of the daoist temple.
Then, she secretly sighed after looking at the blood-soaked Song Shuhang.
The 'Lower City' of the Time City was more troublesome than what she had originally expected.
Aside from that fearsome formation with the 108 bronze statues, weird curses were also lying around.
She and Song Shuhang were going to have a difficult time while looking for a way out of the Lower City!
Anyway, it's better to rest inside this daoist temple for some time...

Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion, inside the palace reserved for the guests.
Li Yinzhu opened her eyes and finally woke up from her hibernation-like state.
”So cold,” she muttered. At this time, the whole room was full of white and icy air, somewhat resembling a freezer.
