Yuan Zhuan's hospital bed was like an isolated island. The items around the bed were blown to the ground, but just as they were about to hit the bed, they were blocked by an invisible membrane and slid off. Meanwhile, the demonic laughter grew closer and closer, piercing the eardrums and stimulating the depths of the soul, trying to provoke the deepest fear in people's hearts.
In fact, Wu Tianqing was indeed frightened. But he remained calm and composed, revealing no trace of his true feelings.
Even if he has excellent professional skills, the current situation has absolutely nothing to do with his professional skills.
As for going on missions with him, they are all harmless and invisible, so there's nothing to be afraid of. Besides, there's a powerful figure backing him up. Now that he's bracing himself against something invisible, how could he not be afraid?
Wu Tianqing saw some of Yuan Sun's belongings by the bedside, gathered them all up and hugged them to his chest. It was exactly three o'clock in the morning, the time of extreme yin.
He said that if he could just hold on for two more hours, by five o'clock, the crisis would be over.
For the next two hours, all he had to do was protect his master; as for the unconscious Yuan Sun, he could only hope for the best.
Yuan Sun: Listen to me, thank you.
What does it feel like to have the earth shaking? For someone from the Central Plains region, it's unknowable. Wu Tianqing had never experienced an earthquake before, but now, he seemed to understand what an earthquake was.
This wasn't just an earthquake; it was like being on a boat, it almost shook his brains out.
Unseen, yet perceptible.
Wu Tianqing sensed that his surroundings seemed to be protected by some invisible barrier, and then he was constantly being hit by invisible things. The laughter and crying of babies, the whispers of strangers of all ages, were right next to his ears, and nothing could block them out.
If this had happened before, he might have thought he was crazy, but now, he feels that the world is crazy.
How could such a thing happen? This is beyond his comprehension!
In fact, from the moment he met Yuan Zhuan, he lost his normal worldview, regardless of those pills, energy water, or talismans.
The temperature continued to drop rapidly, and even though he was wearing a cotton-padded coat, Wu Tianqing's lips turned blue from the cold, and he was shivering uncontrollably.
It was so cold, colder than the worst environment I'd ever been in during missions before, it felt like it seeped right into my bones.
I wonder how long this rune array can last.
Even though the hands on the watch were moving, a minute seemed like an eternity.
However, when the incandescent light above his head went out, a gentle breeze brushed against his face, and Wu Tianqing's hair stood on end, his throat became so dry that he couldn't utter a sound.
The next instant, I felt a burning sensation where the talisman on my neck was hanging down. Ouch...it hurts! I reached down to touch it and found only a ribbon and my fingers covered in ash.
At that moment, Wu Tianqing suddenly remembered the stack of well-preserved, untouched, but constantly accumulating talismans he had sewn into his waist pouch.
"Die!" Since it has the ability to block out the outside world, he'd like to see if this thunderstorm talisman can blast open a passage to the normal world!
Two thunderstorm talismans were lit and thrown out.
He was initially worried that the talisman might be affected by the talisman array, potentially falling directly into it and shaking its foundation. Therefore, he also wrapped two Buddhist prayer beads inside the talisman to increase its weight. (Only Yuan Sun knew the true origin of the prayer beads.)
The next second, the increasingly shrill baby laughter turned into a vicious and heavy scream.
It works!!
In the darkness, Wu Tianqing's eyes lit up.
One by one, thunderstorm talismans were lit, and prayer beads were selflessly contributed, smashing away as if they were free.
When Yuan Sun woke up from the explosion, he saw the hospital room door that had been blasted down to just the entrance, and a group of stunned onlookers.
To put it nicely, it's a ward door; to be more blunt, it's just a hole over two meters high and one meter wide. And this hole appeared out of nowhere. Where are the original wall bricks and plaster at the entrance? Where did they go? What about the door and door frame?
Yuan Zhuan was still unconscious when the police arrived.
Yuan Sun and Wu Tianqing had tidied themselves up, and the mess in the room had been put away.
"So, can any of you tell me what happened?" Zeng Jing received an emergency call saying that a VIP ward in the hospital had been bombed. He was so frightened that he quickly contacted the bomb squad and reported to his superiors, ready to request backup at any time.
When he arrived at the scene fully equipped, riding his motorcycle borrowed from the criminal investigation team, he found that, far from the stampede he had feared, the hospital was not in a state of panic, mass exodus, or people scrambling to escape as he had imagined. Instead, everyone was running upstairs, their faces showing no anxiety or fear, but rather curiosity. He saw those expressions of wonder and the way they craned their necks to look at things every day by the river and in the park, because the curiosity of the Chinese people has never diminished from ancient times to the present.
It should be noted that he had even prepared a plan to organize the evacuation of the crowd on his way to the hospital.
They squeezed through the crowd and saw the bombed ward. After surveying the scene, they found nothing except that it was caused by an explosion.
"Team leader, I haven't found any signs of detonation, nor have I seen any debris..."
"Team leader, this is very strange. I just asked a few eyewitnesses, and they all said that the whole building suddenly shook like an earthquake several times. They didn't have time to react before it stopped. Then they saw an explosion hole here, and the residential area outside the hospital area. When I was investigating, everyone said that the ground didn't move and there was no earthquake. It's like it was all planned."
"And, team leader, look, there aren't any bricks or debris on the ground. It's like it's been swept clean. The key thing is, the security cameras here didn't capture anything, not even a slight movement..."
One after another, the people who conducted the investigations and inquiries reported back that only the two caregivers in this ward and the unconscious patient had not been questioned. Logically, they should have been the first to be questioned, but they simply shut up and ignored the question, saying they didn't know.
After investigating the situation and confirming that there was no explosion as they had imagined, nor any hidden danger, Zeng Jing began to direct the evacuation of the crowd, saying that he could come and ask about the situation himself later.
"You, come with me." These words were spoken to Yuan Sun and Wu Tianqing in the ward.
After the crowd dispersed, Zeng Jing left behind one of the police officers he had brought with him, and the riot police withdrew after cleaning up.
"Our family members need care and cannot be left alone." The implication is that I don't have time and should not bother you.
"These are yours, aren't they? It's unacceptable to engage in feudal superstition." Zeng Jing was holding a half-drawn talisman, which Sun Dasheng had put in Yuan Sun's bag for practice.
"If the officer likes it, he can take it home to admire."
