The Exorcist

Chapter 42 The most important thing

"Let's go!" Ruan Zhan picked up Xiaoxia from the ground. Feeling that her soft body was close to him, feeling that her vitality was still intact, he quickly stretched out his fingers to draw a talisman and left through the air.

He must take her away first!

After dividing the work with Wan Li and Bao Datong, he followed his own feelings and searched for Xiaoxia all over the world. At one point, he heard her call. Although she asked him to leave and refused to respond to his heart, he still Find here slowly.

She didn't want to drag him down. She is in danger. This was her feeling that he sensed, but how did he tell her that he could lose anything in this world, but she could not afford to lose, so no matter how dangerous it was, he would save her!

Along the way, he was only worried about whether he would make it in time. Because of his anxiety and because of her intentional obstruction, his actions were not smooth until he slowly discovered that the path he took to find her was getting closer and closer to the building where Lu Yan lived a few days ago! Then he suddenly understood that the demon boy's stronghold was probably here. If their interest in Xiaoxia was sudden and they wanted to trap her, there would be no other dark place than the dark house where they had lived. The building is more suitable!

As soon as I stepped on it, I realized that the building was really dark. Not only that, there is no one in the surrounding buildings. There is a huge white circle painted on many walls, with the word 'Demolish' written inside. It is obvious that this place is about to be demolished and rebuilt. Looking at it quietly, there is still something faint. Yueyue's black spirit. This further confirmed his judgment. The current place was comparable to an ancient tomb and an abandoned house, and Xiaoxia must be trapped in it.

When he was about to enter the building to see what was going on, he suddenly felt Xiaoxia's longing for him. The telepathy that had become weak due to the loss of memory naturally returned to clarity at this most critical moment! And when he followed his instinct, he immediately saw Xiaoxia standing in a place similar to a gravel field behind these buildings. Not far in front of her, there was a strong and a weak, a good and an evil two masses of black energy wrapped together. , the struggle continued.

Words were redundant at this time. He made a quick judgment, took action quickly, and then quickly took Xiaoxia back to a safe home.

"I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" Xiaoxia sat on the bed, held Ruan Zhan's hand tightly, and said tremblingly.

"That you are safe is the best news, nothing else is important." Ruan Zhan looked into Xiao Xia's eyes and couldn't look away for a moment, "You are the most important!"

He spoke so gently that the atmosphere in the room became ambiguous for a moment. Xiao Xia felt frightened and hesitantly put her other hand on the back of Ruan Zhan's hand before she wanted to say how much she missed him just now, but suddenly she remembered If the situation is urgent, it is more important to get down to business first.

"No, you have to listen." Xiaoxia said seriously, "The good news is that those missing children are in that basement. The bad news is, I don't know whether they are dead or alive!"

"you saw it?"

"Yes." Xiaoxia nodded, a little anxiously, "It seems to be in a basement, but - but it was too dark, and I didn't recognize where it was after I ran out!"

"Don't worry, I know." Ruan Zhan patted Xiaoxia's hand and immediately dialed Wanli's number.

"Where are you?"

"On the way home." Wan Li's voice came from the other side of the phone, "What's wrong?"

"Is it easy to talk?"

"convenient."

"Okay. You immediately find a public phone booth, make an anonymous call, and tell the police that there is a missing child in the basement of the place where Lu Yan used to live."

"Oh my God!" Wan Li was surprised by the news.

"Be careful not to be seen. It's best to change your voice." Ruan Zhan warned, "I don't know if it's all the children, but I have to be quick. I'm afraid it may change over time!"

With so many children missing, for such a major case, the city's police force has been mobilized and on high alert. So when Wan Li's anonymous call came through, the first group of police officers arrived at the scene within a few minutes. , followed by the second and third batches, a large amount of evil energy rushed in. This left the demon boy who was repeatedly traumatized that night without the time and ability to move the children away, so the children who had been missing for a long time were rescued. After investigation, it was found that all the children abducted by the "child trafficking group" were there, no less than one.

However, these children were all in a state of stupor, like a vegetative state. They could only breathe weakly but had no independent consciousness.

"The body is back, what to do with the soul?" Wan Li sat on the stairs, looking troubled.

It was now the next morning, and Xiaoxia had already told Ruan Zhan exactly what happened last night, and was forced to rest and take sick leave again. Xiaoxia originally disagreed with this because she had been "not doing her job properly" in recent times and would be fired if she continued like this. However, Wanli said that if she went out, she would be set up, which would bring trouble to their exorcism operation. trouble.

Xiaoxia weighed it in her mind, and finally felt that the lives of her companions were more important than her own job. The job is gone, she can find another one, the friend is gone - she can't imagine it! Moreover, Wan Li comforted her and said that if she was fired, she might as well switch to being a psychic medium. Anyway, this line of work seemed quite profitable. Anyway, judging from Bao Datong's reaction, it seemed that he was going to take root here.

"If they are still breathing weakly, their souls should not have been eaten." Ruan Zhan frowned, "After the pair of demon children are dealt with, maybe the souls of the children can be returned to their places."

"However, the pair of demon boys may attack the children at any time." Wan Li was a little worried, "If there is no soul, the body will not be saved."

"Simple." Ruan Zhan said without raising his head, "We just need to keep causing trouble for them. If they are overwhelmed with all our provocations, they won't have the energy to do anything else."

"Won't they break up the children's souls or take them to replenish their health?"

"It takes a lot of energy to break it up, and the soul is not something to be eaten for fun. It must be refined immediately after eating, otherwise it will be harmful rather than beneficial."

"What if they insist on harming others and not benefiting themselves?"

"Then I have nothing to do." Ruan Zhan replied without any emotion, "Let's accept our destiny!"

"You are a cold-blooded animal!"

"But I don't think they will do this." Ruan Zhan ignored Wan Li's words and continued, "I have harassed them this morning. They should understand that they have to concentrate on dealing with us. If they are distracted by other things, they will lose. It will be a complete failure.”

"I didn't see you going out?" Wan Li was stunned, "What did you do?"

"I haven't gone out, I just cast some spells." Ruan Zhan said calmly, "When that bastard monster who pretended to be a disabled child to win sympathy was in his room preparing to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, he used the spiritual mirror technique to Attacked him sneakily. Humph, did you think he was the only one who could use a mirror to scare people?"

"Hou, you actually used his own methods to repay him with his own body. Could it be that your ancestor's surname is Murong?"

"I have no ancestors, you know that."

Wan Li originally meant it as a joke, but unexpectedly it touched upon Ruan Zhan's pain, and he quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, A Zhan, I didn't mean it."

"I don't care, you know that." Ruan Zhan smiled and changed the subject, "At that time, the demon boy was so angry that he hit me with pure Yin ghost energy. Unexpectedly, I used the transfer technique taught by Abaya, and he At that moment, a big locust tree outside the window that was hugged by one person was interrupted."

Wan Li glanced at Ruan Zhan, "You smile so treacherously, aren't you plotting something for others?"

"You can't blame me. The place where it grows is too good." Ruan Zhan's mouth is still curved beautifully, "No matter the angle or direction, it is very conducive to absorbing Yang Qi, and the morning is when Yang Qi is sufficient. According to science According to the magic stick, it is carrying out photosynthesis. According to the magic stick, it is trying its best to introduce yang energy. Therefore, when the child comes to hit it, it will definitely be counterattacked by the yang energy! What's more-" He paused, A little proud, "He didn't know that I would transfer the attack to the locust tree outside the window, but I appeared in the mirror. The mirror belongs to water, but the sun belongs to fire. He used the technique of striking water to strike fire, then Aren’t you asking for trouble!”

"Insidious guy!" Wan Li was a little happy when he heard that the child was injured. From what Ruan Zhan said, he knew that these demon boys were extremely powerful. If they suffered some losses now, it would be beneficial to them in a real battle.

"Don't be too happy. He was not seriously injured. Although I left well prepared, it's a pity that the tree outside the window is a locust tree. The locust tree is a ghost tree and is not a good medium for dealing with spirits." Ruan Zhan said, "What I am happy about is not to hurt him, but to make him understand that when he has been underground for more than three hundred years, when he is released, when he has tyrannical strength, but he still can't do whatever he wants, there is no such thing in this world. A person can be so powerful that he can slaughter others at will."

"Is this a good idea?" Wan Li thought for a moment, "This way he will also estimate your strength. When we fight in the future, we won't have to go head-to-head? I hope you didn't lose your confidence because you heard that Xiaotong was going to marry Xiaoxia as a child bride. reason."

"He can't even lay a finger on Xiaoxia." Ruan Zhan said with determination, "These two demon boys are very strong. We will be at a disadvantage no matter what. We can't avoid it. We might as well overwhelm them with momentum first and let them You know we won’t take a step back! He explored my bottom, and I also found his. Didn’t we say before that there was a red lotus in the body of the little banshee? Let me tell you, there is also a red lotus in the body of the little boy, and there are two of them. , right in his eyes. This is why we have been trying to find out the strangeness of the child but can't find it. Bao Datong is not born with yin and yang eyes, and can only judge people and monsters, people and monsters based on the strange energy on the other person's body. Ghost, if the opponent has high magic power and hides well, it will be difficult for him to find it. And the reason why I can't see it is because every time I go to explore, he pretends to be scared and hides in his mother's arms. How can I see it? Get his eyes?"

"So that's it." Wan Li suddenly realized, "That means the kid is more powerful than that unknown little banshee?"

Ruan Zhan nodded, "To be honest, I may be able to draw a tie with the little banshee, but I can't do anything with the boy. If the two of them join forces, their strength is no joke. Speaking of tacit understanding, they stay together." Three hundred years later, it won’t be any worse, so our advantage is zero. In this case, what’s the use of showing weakness?”

"I understand. But judging from what happened last night, you and Xiaoxia both injured the little banshee by surprise. Why didn't you just go all out, severely injure her or even kill her, so that we could take an advantage? Could it be that you are a traitor? "

Ruan Zhan didn't speak for a few seconds. After a moment of silence, he said, "I went to save Xiao Xia. Her safety is the most important thing. I don't have the absolute strength to destroy the little banshee. If she is forced to rebel, What about a blow, or she has an accomplice, or she controls other things to hurt Xiaoxia? I am not alone, so I can't take risks."

"Yeah, you're right, I didn't think about it. But now we are facing each other head-on, what should we do in the future?" Wan Li smiled helplessly, "Your horoscope is not as bad as usual, every time To fight against a very boss character, the weak must defeat the strong every time.”

Ruan Zhan patted Wan Li on the shoulder, "The heartbeat is what you're playing with. The harder it is, the more energetic you will be to do it! And after so many things, you haven't noticed that there are many things we can take advantage of, right? We can It’s not like there’s no chance at all, at least it’s not like we were forced to a dead end like we did with Sima Nan.”

"Oh?" Wan Li became interested, "Tell me quickly, don't say 'secrets must not be leaked'. I hate these words the most!"

"It's not that I won't tell you, but it's useless to say more now. Now we just need to implement the first step of the plan - harassment. I will do this. You don't have to go to work these days. Just stay with Xiaoxia, so as not to be alone. , don't let them find the opportunity to defeat us one by one." Ruan Zhan said while looking around the empty bar.

Although he had set up formations here, and he had repaired the loopholes with the formations taught in the ancient books left by Master Long, so it should be foolproof, but he still did not dare to be careless. In the past, he hated Taoism, but later he felt that he could cope with it without having to undo all his self-seals. Later, after several battles, he had deeply realized the truth that there are mountains outside the mountains.

There is no such thing as absolute strength or absolute weakness in the world. It all depends on one's own planning.

"Lu Yan - is she a monster?" Wan Li suddenly asked.

He never believed that Lu Yan was one of the children, because when he first met her, her behavior, eyes and behavior did not seem to be fake. Based on his many years of experience as a psychiatrist, that cannot be faked. If it is false, it can only be said that these two demon boys not only have great magic power, but also have the same scheming, then their chance of winning will be even smaller. And after all, the fact that things have reached this stage was not caused by her request to meet her deceased husband! This makes no sense from a motive point of view. It has been five years since they were born, so why do they have to make enemies of themselves? Considering this aspect, Lu Yan may know something and take advantage of them, or she may not know anything. It's just because Bao Datong became popular quickly and she simply wanted to hire him, which caused the incident. So much to come.

Ruan Zhan thought for a while and finally shook his head.

"Although she may have something to do with this matter, I really can't detect the abnormality of her being a 'human being'. Unless her magic power is so powerful that it is indescribable, then our death is really approaching. "

Wan Li sighed, "Somehow, she reminds me of Duan Jin."

Ruan Zhan didn't speak, so Wan Li had to change the topic, "So who was the shadow who saved Xiao Xia last night?"

"Zhang Zixin." Ruan Zhan stood up, "When I arrived last night, he was almost dead. I put him in the broken flag to protect him. He kept tossing in the flag, and I didn't have time to check on his condition. . As soon as you said it, I remembered it."
