Chapter 109 Wujia Town
After the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Chuan and Gao Ming went to the company on Guangmo Street in the south of the city and signed an agreement with Ren Shu and others.
However, Ren Shu and others were surprised and a little worried when they saw that he did not want the position of financier and only wanted to sign a temporary cooperation agreement. Because this meant that Chen Chuan could leave at any time, they became more cautious in their wording and attitude.
After the signing was completed, Chen Chuan also had a meal with them. At the table, Gao Ming did not spend much effort to find out everyone's background.
Ren Shu and his companions had a very good impression of Chen Chuan.
They didn't understand business matters, nor could they see things like strength, but Chen Chuanren was good-looking, with bright eyes and an indescribable high-spirited temperament. He spoke calmly and orderly, and was very organized. In addition, after hearing about what he had done before, many young people quickly gained his respect.
After the dinner ended and they said goodbye to Ren Shu and the others, Gao Ming said, "Cousin, these rich kids have really impressive backgrounds."
Chen Chuanshuo said: "Those who can come up with so much money to establish a trust company must have good family conditions. At present, we are just a cooperative relationship."
Gao Ming smiled and said, "Cousin, I understand what you mean. I won't do anything extra. But I remembered what a senior in the industry said: Talk about feelings with rich people, and talk about interests with poor people. Although it's not exactly accurate, it's pretty close."
Chen Chuan said: "Everyone has his or her own pursuits."
"Yes, pursuit." Gao Ming looked towards the distance, where a clear river flowed under the bridge. "It drives everyone to run in a certain direction, whether passively or actively."
Chen Chuan also looked over. Under the sunlight, the river shimmered with ripples, dazzling and brilliant. After watching for a while, he said, "Let's go."
Gao Ming nodded, drove him all the way back to the family quarters of the police station, and then said goodbye to him outside.
"Cousin, I have to go back to the office. I will find the information as soon as possible. Just wait for my news, but it shouldn't take a few days."
Chen Chuan said, "It's still the New Year holiday, Gao Ming, you don't have to rush."
Gao Ming smiled and said, "Since I have taken on this business, there will be no rest time until the goal is achieved. Let's go. I will call my cousin later." He waved to Chen Chuan, got into the car, gestured to him, and drove away.
Chen Chuan watched the car leave and walked into the house, but he paused when entering the yard because he found that the signs of emptiness that had been lingering on the "second self" since the strange story in the cinema had disappeared inadvertently.
He thought about it and realized that it was about ten days. This strange story was much more serious than the doll in the well, but the duration of this sign was getting shorter. This confirmed his previous guess that as the overlapping time of the "second self" increased, it would naturally be able to withstand more and stronger damage.
He continued to enjoy his vacation for the next few days. He went out to meet up with some old classmates he hadn't seen in a while, went to Ding Jiao's place with a few close friends to ride two-wheeled vehicles, went hiking and skiing at Xiaoqing Mountain in the southwest of the city, went ice fishing on the lake, and then went to see a few movies.
Although he had seen all the movies shown that day at the Lanxiang Cinema, watching them with his classmates was a much better viewing experience than watching them with the ghost story.
On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Chen Chuan accompanied his aunt, uncle and their family to the Wuyi University's martial arts hall to watch the semi-finals and finals of the ring competition.
This game was very exciting. In the final, both teams were of similar strength and fought back and forth. Until the end, no one in the audience could tell who would be the real winner.
In Chen Chuan's eyes, these two B-grade students should be no less capable than the A-grade students of the same grade in terms of the power and skills of their alienated tissues.
However, the ring still has a bit of entertainment and competition. Neither side used any brutal force, and both sides tacitly dragged out the game. Even when some flashy performance skills were added, the other side cooperated and let it finish. This further aroused the emotions of the audience, but this is what people love to watch.
After watching the game, the family was still immersed in the atmosphere of the game. Cousin Nian Mo imitated what he had done just now, running and jumping in front, taking a branch and whipping it everywhere, making a wow sound from his mouth.
Yu Wan walked slowly, holding Nian Lu in her arms. She said, "Chan'er, those two students in the finals look pretty impressive. How do they compare to you?"
Chen Chuan smiled and said simply and clearly, "I can win."
What the B-grade students learn is not for fighting and killing opponents. Some of their skills are completely unnecessary in actual combat. If they go into the ring, they may be restricted by the rules and need some time to adapt. If they actually fight, even with bare hands, the opponent has basically no chance of winning.
However, if necessary, Grade B students can also demonstrate certain combat effectiveness after some targeted training. After all, people from alienated organizations are much stronger than ordinary fighters and can hardly be compared.
After returning home, five days passed in a flash and the fifteenth day of the first lunar month had already passed. Although the New Year atmosphere was still there, it gradually faded.
It's rare to relax these days, but school will start in half a month, and it's a new beginning, so Chen Chuan has to focus and adjust himself seriously.
That day he was practicing boxing in the yard. According to the method taught to him by He Xiaoxing, he was now completely on the right track, and the alienated tissue was infiltrating and growing in his bones, joints and muscles.
According to the analysis in the notes, it would take about three months to fully reach its first limit if there were no interruptions and the alienated organization could grow steadily all the way.
However, he knew that was only the limit of him and his second self, not his own limit. He still needed more training and stimulation to promote the alienated organization.
After he had finished performing the moves He Xiaoxing had taught him, he heard footsteps outside the courtyard. A little boy, about twelve or thirteen, poked his head out and said to him, "Brother Xiaochuan, there's someone outside looking for you."
Chen Chuan stood up and said thank you. He walked out and came to the entrance of the alley. He saw an SUV parked there. Ren Shu was waiting there, rubbing his hands. He said, "Why are you here, Mr. Ren?"
When Ren Shu saw him, he said a little embarrassedly: "Mr. Chen, we don't want to disturb you during the holiday, it's just..."
Chen Chuan said seriously, "Mr. Ren, since I have signed the agreement, I must fulfill my responsibilities. Mr. Ren must have a commission by contacting me at this time. Let's talk business first."
"Okay," Ren Shu looked around and whispered, "We just received a mission from the Government Affairs Office. It's related to the Flying Head Cult we mentioned earlier, and we need to handle it as soon as possible."
Chen Chuan glanced over and asked, "In the city?"
Ren Shu's heart tightened involuntarily when he was looked at by him. He nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, although it's not in the city, it's not far away. Considering that there might be a flying head ghost story, I came here specially to invite Mr. Chen."
Chen Chuan said, "Wait for me, I'll go get some things."
He turned back, took the Xuejun Knife, and put on his Wuji pistol. He quickly walked out and said to Ren Shu, "Mr. Ren, please lead the way. We can discuss the details in the car."
Ren Shu quickly agreed and helped him open the car door. After Chen Chuan got in, he sat in the passenger seat and said to the driver, "Wujia Town, north of the city."
Chen Chuanxin said, "Is it the north of the city again?"
In fact, this is very reasonable, because the city is densely populated. Although it is easy to hide, any movement can be discovered immediately and the police can be dispatched at any time. On the contrary, the north of the city is large, the residents there are very xenophobic, and there are many gangs, which is very conducive to causing trouble.
Not only that, the north of the city is adjacent to the mountainous area to the north. If anything happens, you can just walk out and hide in the mountains, and no matter how many people come, they can't catch you.
Ren Shu rummaged through his bag, pulled out a request form, and carefully handed it to Chen Chuan in the back seat, saying, "There's news that a flying head was found at the ancestral hall in Wujia Town. Many townspeople were worshipping at the time, and as a result, a large number of townspeople were affected on the spot. Although the town had a security team, only a few conscious people escaped.
Many clients from the commissioned companies have already arrived, but no one is confident in removing the flying head. Since the information we submitted mentioned that there are experts in dealing with ghost stories, the Government Affairs Office assigned it to us."
Chen Chuan took the information and flipped through it, and got a rough idea of it.
He had already learned from Cheng Zitong that the flying head ghost story could be solved by physical means. The key was that this thing could fly, and at an incredibly fast speed. Especially once it became excited, it would have a great impact on people's sanity. Therefore, the battle within the contact range must not be delayed for too long, otherwise people would probably go crazy.
Cheng Zitong warned him that if that time came, he must maintain his breathing method, regulate his blood flow, and not get too emotional. If it really didn't work, he should leave and come back to find another solution, or take some medicine to calm his mind.
But he doesn't need this. Secondly, I can absorb external influences and damage, and those continuous damages will not have much effect on him. From this point of view, he can just restrain some weird things.
After about half an hour, the car arrived at a small town near the outskirts of the city. Most of the houses here were low brick houses with snow still on the roofs. However, there were some houses that were converted from sentry posts and warehouses left over from the great development period, which looked very conspicuous.
Because this small town is relatively close to Yangzhi City, the roads are relatively flat and wide, and there are street lights on both sides. Looking into the town, there are many overturned tricycles on the streets, with goods spilled all over the ground, and many shops are closed.
Just outside the town entrance, you can see more than 20 cars parked. They should be people from the commissioned company who arrived early. A group of people who looked like townspeople were gathered there talking.
And further away, there were some people who had obviously come from other places to watch the excitement. They stood in groups of three or five from a distance, pointing at the town. These people were really brave.
When the car arrived at the intersection, a burly middle-aged man among the townspeople ran toward them and asked, "Is this Mr. Ren? Have your company's experts arrived?"
Ren Shu rolled down the car window and was immediately hit by a gust of cold wind. He couldn't help coughing twice and said, "We're here, we're here!"
The middle-aged man was overjoyed: "I've been waiting for you!"
The clients of the entrusting companies were also cheered up and put out their cigarettes one after another. The flying head was hiding there and no one dared to touch him, for fear that they would become crazy like those villagers. It would be better if there were experts to deal with it.
After the car stopped, the door opened and Chen Chuan got out of the car holding the Xuejun Knife. The middle-aged man was stunned at first, as if a little surprised at Chen Chuan's youth, but when he saw the long knife in his hand and looked into Chen Chuan's calm eyes, his heart couldn't help but jump.
He immediately came over to shake hands with Chen Chuan. "I'm Wu Dajin, the captain of the town security team. You must be Envoy Chen, right? Hello."
Those who commissioned the company also looked at Chen Chuan with serious expressions. Chen Chuan was so young, but he could walk around with a weapon. It was obviously not simple. The key was that he was a person who had an evaluation in the Government Affairs Office and could handle strange stories. They had no choice but to pay attention to it.
Chen Chuan shook hands with Wu Dajin, glanced at the people behind him, and said, "Hello, Captain Wu, what's the situation now?"
