Chapter 110: Head Broken
Wu Dajin said with a sad face, "When the incident happened yesterday, we were worshipping in the ancestral hall, and that thing suddenly came down. Then everyone in the hall kowtowed to it as if it was possessed. No matter how much we tried to persuade it, it wouldn't stop, and more and more people were possessed.
I saw something was wrong and immediately went out to evacuate the townspeople, but I was still too slow. Out of the thousands of people in the town, at least three or four hundred were affected.
I turned back and tried to rush in and kill it, but ended up losing more than a dozen of my brothers. I had no choice but to withdraw."
Although there were only twenty or so security team members left here, it would not be difficult for the evacuated townspeople to organize themselves and pull out hundreds of people. But the problem was that the flying head was too difficult to deal with. It would easily drive people crazy if they got close to it, and they would all kowtow to it together. Some even tried to stop them with red eyes.
Which of the affected townspeople wasn't their relative? Even if they had weapons in their hands, they couldn't bring themselves to attack, and could only retreat in embarrassment.
After the people from the commissioned company arrived, someone suggested sending a few fire trucks to disperse the villagers, but Wu Dajin firmly disagreed. In such a cold day, people would definitely get frostbite if they were hit by cold water, not to mention that there were many elderly people and children in the ancestral hall who could not withstand this.
Some people from the client company refused to believe it and tried to charge in several times without hurting anyone, but they were unsuccessful. One client even knelt down and kowtowed to the flying heads like the townspeople. Everyone was horrified. Now, without a way to deal with the flying heads, no one dared to rush in.
At this moment, the head client of a client company came up to Chen Chuan and asked, "Client Chen, I heard someone say that if Feitou is eliminated, everyone will regain their sanity."
Wu Dajin also looked over with anticipation.
Chen Chuan replied, "That's true, but if we get too close now, the townspeople will definitely attack us. So if we go from the periphery, we're bound to clash with them."
The man immediately looked disappointed. If that was the case, this person could only be useful at the last or critical moment. They would have to figure out how to rush in on their own.
At this moment, everyone suddenly heard a sound like a bird and a child crying.
Chen Chuan looked up and saw a black dot like a bird flying up in the distance. However, he could see clearly that it was not a bird, but a human head!
The two ears of the human head were spread out like bird wings, and the expression on the face seemed to be smiling. It circled above a building and then fell back.
Wu Dajin's face turned grim as he said, "Chen Envoy, that's the ancestral hall. This thing comes out every hour."
Chen Chuan couldn't help but look thoughtful.
One of the clients said impatiently, "Captain Wu, we sympathize with Wujia Town's plight, but we have been entrusted to resolve the issue, and we can't just stand there. You asked for no one to be hurt, but that's hard for us to do.
But you have to know that if we fail to complete it, the next time the Government Affairs Office may directly send out the patrol team. They are all armed and have a rough style. They are not like us who are reasonable. "
Wu Dajin was also a little hesitant. He knew that what he said was right. The Police Bureau would only obey orders from above. In order to solve the problem, they might not be lenient towards those townspeople who had lost their minds.
Chen Chuan then said, "Actually, there's no need for us to go over there." Everyone couldn't help but look at him.
He continued, "That flying head keeps coming out because it's looking for blood and food for sacrifice. The townspeople are simply under its influence and have lost their minds. Without anyone to organize them, they don't know how to set up an altar. So, we just need to set up a simple sacrificial site outside, offer sacrifices, and it will come over on its own.
Wu Dajin's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Commissioned by Chen, can you do it?!"
Chen Chuan nodded to him and said to the people from the various commissioned companies behind him, "It's just that Feitou was attacked. When the time comes, those irrational townspeople may come out to stop it. I'll have to trouble you all."
When everyone in the client company heard this, they all responded, "Don't worry, Mr. Chen, leave it to us."
Chen Chuan knew very well that when Feitou came over, the townspeople would not run away at will, and they could not run as fast as flying. By the time they ran over, they might have been killed by him.
But this would make the other clients seem useless, which would definitely cause their evaluation to drop. And since he mentioned it, no matter whether it is useful or not, at least there will be no problem with the evaluation.
He was not simply giving these people face. These clients were numerous and had armed forces. More than 20 security guards could not stop them at all. If they really wanted to do whatever they wanted, the unarmed townspeople inside would not be a big deal, but they still took the townspeople's health into consideration and did not choose to use force. For this reason, he was willing to lend a hand.
He said to Wu Dajin: "Captain Wu, I need you to do something and find something else."
"Mr. Chen, just give me your instructions and I will find them for you!" Wu Dajin responded quickly.
Chen Chuan said, "First, you will be responsible for dispersing the irrelevant onlookers. When Feitou comes out later, they may be seriously affected."
Someone from the client company said, "We brought arresting cables this time, which should be able to help."
Wu Dajin said, "That's great." He grabbed a member of the town security team and told him to take people to help. He then asked Chen Chuan, "Commissioner Chen, what else do you want?"
Chen Chuan told Wu Dajin what he needed, and he immediately asked the townspeople and team members present to go out and find the things. In just half an hour, all the things he wanted were gathered.
Following his instructions, everyone used the dismantled bricks and stones to build a temporary altar, and brought a sheep, knocked it unconscious, and placed it on top.
However, when offering the sacrifice, someone needs to come forward and kowtow to complete the ceremony.
Chen Chuan said to the two selected, somewhat trembling town security guards, "Don't worry. Even if you accidentally lose your mind, you will recover quickly after we deal with Feitou."
Seeing the two men still cowering, Wu Dajin went up and kicked each of them, then lashed them with his belt several times. "What the hell are you standing there for? Isn't that embarrassing? Isn't that embarrassing? Get on with it!"
After being beaten and scolded by him, the two team members had no choice but to go up. After they knelt down, Wu Dajin followed Chen Chuan's instructions and went up himself and cut the sheep's throat. A stream of blood spurted out immediately and quickly gathered in the clay basin placed below. A strong smell of blood emanated from it.
Wu Dajin shouted to the two team members who were standing there in a daze, "What are you standing there for? Kowtow! Kowtow!"
The two men seemed to wake up from a dream and kowtowed to the altar.
The people around also quickly dispersed, and everyone was waiting nervously and seriously. However, after waiting for a long time, there was no movement around.
Just when everyone was wondering if this was useless, Chen Chuan suddenly saw the second me suddenly show signs of becoming hollow. He raised his head and said, "There."
Everyone present looked up in shock, because without knowing when, the flying head had already flown over their heads.
Chen Chuan tried to identify it at this time, but found that it was wrong, because this flying head was different from the one he had just seen, and they were not the same.
This situation was beyond his expectations. Could there be two of them?
He quickly changed his mind. Regardless of whether the flying head in front of him was related to the one in the town, the townspeople were obviously not affected by this, so he had to deal with the one in the village first.
So he touched his pocket, raised his hand, and several stones flew out. The flying head was hit by one of them and was immediately frightened. It let out an uncomfortable howl and flew away.
Wu Dajin was confused. "Chen entrusted me, this..."
Chen Chuan said, "That's not it. There are two flying heads. We can only deal with one at a time. Send a few people over and try to drive this flying head away, but don't get too close to avoid being affected."
Someone from the commissioning company immediately said, "Mr. Chen, leave it to us." As he said that, he took a few people and the prepared tools and followed the flying head.
Not long after the flying head was driven away, an unpleasant howling sound was heard, and a black dot flew out of the town and came towards them.
Chen Chuan said: "Stand back, everyone stand back."
Everyone saw it and quickly stepped back, leaving him alone standing in front.
The flying head came directly to the altar and circled above it twice. When it got close, everyone could see that the withered face was tightly attached to the skull, but full of wrinkles. At this moment, the face showed an expression of comfort and hunger, and then it couldn't wait to fall down and plunged into a pool of blood.
At this time, except for the two people who were still kowtowing, some security guards at a close distance suddenly twitched and were immediately controlled by the people from the entrusted company. Further away, those who were standing behind the barrier ropes and watching began to vomit one after another, and soon there were few who could still stand normally.
Chen Chuan glanced at the second me, which showed obvious signs of becoming hollow. He took a deep breath, stuck the Xuejun Knife into the ground, held the hilt in his hand, and slowly dragged the blade out as he walked forward.
He took relatively slow steps at first, but Feitou hadn't noticed yet, gnawing on the sheep, making chewing sounds, but as he got closer, it seemed to become more alert and looked out.
Chen Chuan had been paying attention to its changes. Even though it was not yet at the distance where it was easiest to swing the knife, he did not wait any longer. He suddenly crossed a distance of seven or eight meters, and then a flash of light passed by!
With a shrill howl, even though the flying head dodged in time, a small part of its flesh and bones along with half of its ear flew out. However, it seemed that this did not affect its flight. The remaining part was still rushing upwards and was about to escape from the range of the knife. The people watching from behind were also anxious.
Chen Chuan still looked calm. At this moment, he suddenly pulled out the Wuji spear from his waist, fired seven shots in a row upwards, and made bloody holes on the surface of the head.
The flying head shook several times, and finally fell straight down from above, hitting the ground with a thud. At this moment, the emptiness on the "second me" suddenly deepened, as if some strong invasion was being inflicted on him.
He remained unmoved, put down his gun, and calmly walked forward. He took a step forward, and with a snap, the head was instantly crushed by him. Then he turned around calmly, looked at the people who were staring at him in shock, and said, "Captain Wu."
"I'm here, I'm here," Wu Dajin woke up as if from a dream, ran up quickly, and looked at him excitedly and nervously.
Chen Chuan said in a steady tone, "Captain Wu, please set up another altar and see if you can attract the other flying head. Now that we've seen it, we can get rid of it together."
