The Exorcist

Chapter 19 Paper Fish

A ball of fire flew out from Ruan Zhan's palm.

His fire hand seal this time was more violent than any before, and the trajectory did not go straight out, but flipped up and down, left and right, and rushed forward.

As soon as the fire came out, Xiaoxia heard screams everywhere, and the surrounding fog receded like a tide. From their position, they could see the entire square unobstructed, and they could also see the fireball hitting the edge of the square with incomparable heat. on a tree, causing the tree to burn immediately.

"Ah, the square is just ahead! Let's go quickly!" Liu Hong shouted in surprise and joy, while pushing Reporter Ma forward. Reporter Ma was unprepared and bumped into Xiaoxia's back. But from the first time Liu Hong shouted, Xiaoxia tensed up to guard against any accidents she might cause, so she tried her best to withstand the momentum from Reporter Ma and did not hit Ruan Zhan.

Others didn't see it, but she kept her hands on Ruan Zhan's back and felt that Ruan Zhan's body was shaking slightly after he made the fire hand seal. She understood that he had worked too hard to frighten these resentful spirits. If there was any external impact at this time, his current weak condition would be exposed.

"Zuo De, if she yells again, throw her out of the team." She said fiercely, hating this selfish, snobbish, accomplished, and failed woman. Finally she understood why people said that an insider The destructive factor is more terrifying than ten foreign enemies.

Ruan Zhan didn't say anything, and connected with Xiao Xia's mind. He walked toward the square, a little faster than before, but still steadily, as if he was walking. This would not only not expose his frivolous steps, but also make him appear extra confident. , to deter those resentful spirits from acting rashly.

His spiritual power has been blocked, and now he can only use 'deception' and 'drag' to get around. But the fact that he can do this also proves that he has indeed broken Sima Nan's water viewing technique, preventing him from seeing the town. In such a situation, there is no way to remotely control and direct it. Now these resentful spirits must think that he is very powerful and poses an absolute threat to them. They are just waiting here for reinforcements because they can't find a way out for the time being. So they just stood around and didn't dare to rush forward.

But Zhao Jiayuan's incident gave him a revelation. These resentful spirits are not simple. They know how to plant spies around him. Now there may be other eyes around them watching, so he must be cautious and not reveal any information about himself.

There is another unfavorable situation - Sima Nan will not just let it go, and will definitely think of other ways to make him passive.

The resentful spirits that turned into thick fog followed them unwillingly. When they arrived at the square, the fog did not stop and gradually invaded. Just as Ruan Zhan had judged, although the fog was still permeating the square, it was not as thick. The visibility was slightly better than on the street, allowing a few people sitting around the tree to see everyone else.

Perhaps because of the spiritual power of the fire created by the fire hand seal, the tree was still burning, like a huge torch. Although the people sitting with their backs to the tree did not feel the slightest heat, as if they were behind them. It was a cold fire that was burning, but this flame combined with the three talismans that everyone put in front of them successfully prevented the attack of the resentful spirits!

The mist was rolling violently, like boiling water. Xiaoxia knew that they were unwilling to give in, and she also knew that they would not wait long before they would find another way to attack. She glanced at Ruan Zhan and saw that although his expression was calm, his expression was still not good. She kept praying in her heart that he would get better soon. At the same time, she understood that they had escaped another wave of danger, but that was only temporary, and more The great danger is yet to come.

Sima Nan sat peacefully on the sofa, watching Hong Haohao pack up the woman's things with an angry expression.

He knew she wasn't happy with where they lived. Ever since he brought her back from Myanmar, he had always given her the most luxurious life, so even though this hotel was the best in Hongqing Town, she was still not satisfied.

He doesn't care much about these. He has lived in the worst place in the world - the grave. To him, material things and enjoyment are not that important. All he wants is the sense of superiority, the ability to control everything and despise everything. . Including Hong Haohao, they were just his most dazzling decorations, and he never took them to heart!

And he initially focused on Ruan Zhan just because he was curious that there was such a person in the world, not a fake magician who pretended to be a magician, but a real stranger with natural spiritual power, so he wanted to tease Ruan Zhan, as if he was full. Like a cat teasing a mouse.

However, he failed.

The first time was due to carelessness, and this time his carelessness caused him to hurt his soul root, so in the following times, he had to use means to stimulate the battles of skills and wits behind his back. Doing this made him feel very conflicted. On the one hand, he wanted Ruan Zhan to lose, because he learned that the cold-looking boy was getting stronger and stronger, and he was getting stronger even unconsciously, which made him worried; on the other hand, he wanted to Ruan Zhanying, this way he will live, wait until his injuries are fully recovered, and then defeat him with his own hands!

In his life, he was very clear about what he wanted, and he had never hesitated so much. In the end, he discovered that he was afraid of Ruan Zhan, just like a late king who saw an aggressive young hero trying to oust him from the throne. Same feeling.

Also, Ruan Zhan is that person's child and was trained by that person, so he can't tolerate it even more!

But this time, there was a deeper reason besides Ruan Zhan that made him determined, and that was the secret in A Bai's hands.

In fact, his skill has not fully recovered, and he should be most confident after a while, but he pretends to be completely recovered because he can't wait any longer. After Abai died, he knew that she had unresolved knots in her heart, so her soul remained with her. So he had no choice but to seal her in a dry well and not let her come out, letting her suffer in loneliness year after year, just because he was afraid that the secret would be leaked.

That was something he never got, and of course it couldn't fall into the hands of others!

But he didn't expect that Ruan Zhan and the others would encounter Abai's soul in the mountains and forests, nor did he expect that they would actually bring her out. Seeing them living together day after day, he was really afraid that Abai would tell the secret. Therefore, he had to take action in a hurry!

"Are you ready?" He was tired of Hong Haohao's seemingly endless organizing work.

"Not yet, the broken cabinet here——"

"I didn't say that." Sima Nan interrupted Hong Haohao, "I meant how prepared are you for the practice?"

Hong Haohao saw his face darken and quickly swallowed his complaints. After following him for so many years, I already know his moody personality. When he is happy, he will give you the whole world without frowning, but the next second he may kill you without blinking an eye.

"It has been prepared for a long time."

"It won't be like the last time we dealt with Wan Li. Not only did we not deal with him, but we also gave him the opportunity to put himself on the altar table, and he couldn't even reach out, right?" Sima Nan smiled, but Hong Hao was silent.

"That's--my fault." Hong Haohao wanted to say that it was because of the incompetence of his subordinates, but he didn't say it after all. "But this time you lived next door to Wan Li, didn't you completely offset his advantage? Being so close If so, wouldn’t it be easy to kill him without telling anyone?”

"Is it easy? But so many times, it didn't hurt the lives of these two boys at all!" Sima Nan said mockingly to himself. However, he thought of Wan Li's ingenuity in turning a disadvantage into an advantage after making such a fuss, and he couldn't help but appreciate it. And the fact that he came so close to Wan Li as an ordinary person made him restless, and threatened his life at any time was even more outrageous!

He raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was almost midnight. That boy Wan Li was probably sleeping soundly next door, but his target today was not him, but Ruan Zhan in the new town.

That kid looked polite, but he was really brave enough to drink. But he was still young after all, so he thought it would be enough to break his Water Observation Technique and set up a barrier outside the new town that could not be attacked by force?

The barrier can seal the sky above the entire town, and even the underground cannot pass through. However, if it is in a place where there is a waterway leading to the outside world, the space cannot be sealed easily. Because the water is invisible and flowing, special skills are required to seal the water, and no matter how talented Ruan Zhan is, it is impossible to do this now.

When Ruan Zhan broke his barrier and set up a barrier that would kill those who forcibly broke the barrier, he was so angry at being overturned again that he didn't realize it for a while, but after calming down, he finally thought of this Tiny loopholes. And coincidentally, Hongqing Town was short of water, and it was later discovered that there was an underground river under the town, and this river led from outside the town to the inside.

This provides him with the possibility to cast spells. Although the flow of water may reduce the effectiveness of his spells, it is enough for the boy named Ruan. Although he couldn't see Ruan Zhan's condition, he could guess by guessing that Ruan Zhan must be using the power of the talisman to protect himself and other survivors, and then buy time to recover the spiritual energy sealed by him.

No one knows what kind of talisman Ruan Zhan used better than him. As for this kid, it is simply wishful thinking to recover his spiritual power in a short period of time. Restoring spiritual energy also requires the cooperation of other spiritual powers. If there is none at all, how can we restore it? Magic power, spiritual power, and soul-binding power are all sealed by him. Where can Ruan Zhan go?

He couldn't help but feel proud when he thought of this, so he no longer wasted time and took Hong Haohao to the place outside the new town that connected to the underground river in the dark.

He raised his eyes and looked at the sky. It happened that a dark cloud covered the moon. The sky was very suitable for the extremely cloudy time at this moment. When he saw this, he immediately seized the opportunity to stand at the position he had calculated in advance, and took out a strange fish-shaped thing made of paper and covered with spells from the black lacquered wooden plate held in Hong Haohao's hand. , then recited the spell silently, and at the moment before the dark clouds were about to leave the moon, he bit the tip of his tongue, squirted a little blood on the paper fish in his hand, and threw the fish into the well mouth as soon as he raised his hand!

In the dark well, the white paper fish fell to the water like a bright lamp, flopped a few times like a real fish, then turned completely black, turned over and dived into the water, escaping the water like an arrow. Go and disappear in an instant.

"Go! Go! Remove all the talismans, so that the evil spirits will no longer have any obstacles, and the people who use the talisman as a protection will no longer have a barrier!" He said to the wellhead, his face pale against the dark water. !
