Chapter 133 Gu Worms Reappear

Hearing Ling Tian’s question, He Yadong, the owner of Golden Sunshine Film and Television Company, gave a wry smile.

"Wu Kun is both a cash cow and a troublemaker.

He is indeed a very popular idol with a massive fan base and is highly sought after by capital.

However, this person is too arrogant, doesn't demand much of himself, and his private life is chaotic..."

Ling Tian picked up his wine glass and clinked it with He Yadong’s, then said, "Mr. He, Yueyue should have told you that I have inherited traditional Chinese medicine skills and have some research in the diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine's looking, listening, questioning, and palpating.

Just now, I observed Wu Kun up close, and I found that this person might have some physical problems!"

Upon hearing this, He Yadong immediately became nervous. His artist having physical problems was no small matter.

Especially for an artist like Wu Kun who had endorsed many businesses, if he couldn't fulfill his obligations due to problems, the compensation alone would be enough for them to handle.

"Ling Tian, what problem did you notice?"

Ling Tian didn't answer but looked up at Sister Wei and Han Yueyue opposite him.

Sister Wei, being an old hand, immediately understood Ling Tian's intention.

"Mr. He, Ling Tian, it's getting late. I'll take Yueyue back to rest. We have work tomorrow morning and have to catch a flight."

"Alright, Xiao Wei, you two get some rest early. Thank you for your hard work.

I'll take Ling Tian to my office to sit for a while!"

Han Yueyue was taken away dejectedly, complaining incessantly.

"Sister Wei, it's only 8 o'clock, and I still want to chat with Ling Tian for a while longer."

"Silly girl, didn't you see that Ling Tian has something to discuss with Mr. He?"

"Then we don't have to leave, you can come and listen. Ling Tian won't avoid us," Han Yueyue pouted.

"Girl, it's better not to know some things, especially some secrets involving personal privacy. It might even lead to death!" Sister Wei advised as if she were lecturing her own daughter.

"Okay!" Han Yueyue returned to her residence unhappily.

Meanwhile, Ling Tian and He Yadong arrived at his office, and He Yadong carefully closed the door.

"Don't worry, Ling Tian, it's very safe here. No one will eavesdrop," He Yadong said with a smile, pouring Ling Tian a cup of tea.

"Mr. He, you know, I had a conflict with Wu Kun from your company just now."

"It's fine. That Wu Kun, he only knows how to cause trouble all day. Besides, this matter was initiated by him. Even if you beat him up, I would only applaud."

Ling Tian looked at He Yadong and found that he was speaking from the heart. It seemed that this fellow's dislike for Wu Kun was undisguised.

"We had a conflict just now, and we were in close contact. I observed him carefully and found that Wu Kun's body has abnormalities!

I would like to consult you, has Wu Kun been particularly energetic and excited recently, seemingly tireless?

Also, has his body been gradually losing weight recently..."

Upon hearing this, He Yadong slapped his thigh, almost jumping up from the sofa.

"Xiao Ling, what you said is absolutely correct. More than a year ago, this Wu Kun was still very normal. About a year ago, this guy seemed like a different person.

He had extremely high energy every day, even sleeping only two or three hours a day!

However, this guy wasn't like what was boasted outside, putting all his energy into work. They spent most of their time with women!

Also, others might not notice, but I often see him and can feel that he has lost quite a bit of weight compared to a year ago."

He Yadong was quite perceptive of the changes in his artist.

"I suggest you take him to the hospital for an enhanced brain CT scan, focusing on his pituitary gland!

I suspect there might be a tumor near his pituitary gland, pressing on it and causing it to continuously release hormones, which is why he has so much energy!"

Ling Tian was only using a euphemism. Because when he saw Wu Kun, he had immediately made a judgment: what Wu Kun had was not a brain tumor, but a Gu worm!

This type of Gu worm was called a marching Gu in ancient times.

Back then, in the Miao border mountains of the south, some tribes were in constant conflict.

To achieve victory in war, some village sorcerers researched this marching Gu.

This Gu worm, in its adult stage, is only the size of a soybean and parasitizes the human brain. This thing can stimulate the pituitary gland, causing it to continuously release a large amount of hormones.

Under the stimulation of these hormones, soldiers who had the Gu worm transplanted into their bodies were tireless, felt no pain, and had no fear when fighting and marching, becoming pure killing machines.

Of course, the side effects of these things were also enormous. Human energy is limited, and prolonged stimulation by hormones would greatly deplete vitality.

Moreover, hormones directly act on the endocrine system, and long-term, large-scale secretion of various hormones can also cause various pathological changes.

Even the Gu worm itself, once it dies, will become a tumor in the human body, a ticking time bomb!

Ling Tian originally wanted to track down the whereabouts of the Gu King, but unexpectedly, he saw Wu Kun here and discovered the Gu worm inside him.

Now, Ling Tian has reason to suspect that Wu Kun must have come into contact with the Gu King!

He Yadong looked worried after hearing Ling Tian's explanation.

"Ling Tian, does this brain tumor affect Wu Kun's health?"

"Of course, it has a very significant impact.

In the short term, he will continue to lose weight. Over time, his body might be drained of life.

Also, the tumor in his head could cause him to die suddenly!"

"That serious!"

"Mr. He, are your company's artists managed in terms of their schedules? Do you have records if they go for medical treatment or anything like that?"

He Yadong nodded.

"Yes, the company manages the schedules of every artist very strictly, especially for top stars like Wu Kun.

Even all his private activities must be reported, and medical treatments are specifically arranged by the company with suitable medical institutions."

"Is there anyone who understands this area? I want to get some information from him," Ling Tian said.

"Okay, I'll arrange it for you."

He Yadong made a phone call directly. After a while, a young man in his early twenties knocked on the door and entered the office.

This person was Wu Kun's assistant, Xiao Meng.

"Mr. He, you were looking for me?" Xiao Meng spoke somewhat fearfully. After all, this Mr. He was a big shot in the industry and wouldn't tolerate any nonsense.

"I'm here to ask you, what is Wu Kun doing now?"

"Brother Wu, he... he's rehearsing lines with Meimei!"
