Chapter 1247: There Must Be A Man!

The owner of this jade was clearly… Little Tian Tian.

Heavens, was the Nineteenth Witch very interested in Little Tiantian?

If the witch doctor wasn’t as vicious as the rumors said, she wouldn’t mind flirting with her for Little Tian Tian.

But considering the rumors about the witch doctors…

After seeing with her own eyes how low the local thugs the witch doctor controlled were…

She would rather not.

Gu Qiqi said indifferently, “Who cares about the 19th or 18th witch doctor? I’m here to participate in the Great Pharmacist Guild Conference, not to befriend some witch doctor. No matter how powerful and favored she is, it has nothing to do with me.”

Behind her, Lisa heard and felt an inexplicable sense of relief.

Seeing that she was not interested, the old man with the scar did not continue and changed the topic. “Then is Young Master Ye planning to participate in the competition in this outfit?”

Gu Qiqi nodded. “That’s right. There are many men here. It’s more convenient to be a man.”

At the very least, it would give Lisa some protection. It would make her look like a woman who was taken. It would prevent the men from having sneaky thoughts and always thinking about her.

The old man with the scar glanced at them both. “Then you’re still short of two men.”

Lisa, who had been silent, suddenly said excitedly, “We don’t need a man! I can do it with Young Master Ye!”

After what happened at the tavern yesterday, she was already traumatized by men. Of course, Gu Qiqi’s Young Master Ye was an exception.

Gu Qiqi was also stunned. “Why do we need other men? They’re too much of a hindrance!”

Men are troublesome, okay?

Most of them were stupid enough not to listen to instructions.

Wouldn’t that be a burden?

The old man with the scar stroked his short beard and shook his head. “You don’t know the rules of the Great Pharmacist Guild, do you? When entering the Ghost Island, you have to form a team of four. The team must have a woman and three men. If you can’t form a team like this, you will be disqualified.”

“What kind of strange rule is this?” Gu Qiqi frowned.

“Perhaps there are too few female apothecaries. Only one of each team is forced to bring one. The others must be men, in case all the female apothecaries are taken by a few teams.”

“We’re not competing. We’re just looking for herbs,” Lisa said gloomily.

“The teams that don’t participate in the competition still have to be formed according to the rules. Moreover, you have to participate in the competition because only the participants are qualified to approach the deepest medicinal forest. Those who don’t participate can only watch from the beach on the island. That would be a wasted trip. You won’t be able to find any precious medicinal herbs.” The old man with the scar shrugged.

Gu Qiqi and Lisa exchanged glances.

It seemed that the two of them had underestimated this trip to the island.

They thought they could move around freely by landing on the island and avoiding the crowds to find what they wanted. What did it matter to them how savage those witch doctors and doctors were?

From the looks of it, it was impossible not to participate!

Since they were here, they had to adapt to the rules and carry out a cruel PK!

But where could they find another two men to team up with?

Tonga Kingdom Customs.

Chu Junmo’s plane was stopped. He was not allowed to land at the airport. He had to return to the place he came from.

Chu Junmo did not panic in the face of danger. He instructed Secretary Jiao, “We’ll approach by sea and mobilize a cargo ship into the country!”

As the freighter pulled into the harbor, a large group of staff came over to search Chu Junmo’s luggage.

Inside the luggage, they actually found a contraband item—gator skin!

According to local law, Chu Junmo had to be detained for more than seven days!

Looking at the handcuffs that were handed over, the usually calm and composed Chu Junmo’s face darkened.

When did he put crocodile skins in his luggage? Was he the kind of man who had no taste?’

Damn it.

Gong Jue! It’s you, right?

Trying all means to stop me from seeing Qiqi? You’re really unscrupulous!

Think there’s nothing I can do about it?
