Chapter 442 Bone-eating insects
When Chu Runrun entered the room, she saw the sad ghost standing behind Zhan Xixi, passing on his last bit of strength to her.
Chu Runrun frowned slightly, and was about to stop the sad ghost when she was stopped by Ning Xuan.
"It's helping her!" Ning Xuan said in a deep voice.
As the power of the grieving ghost came in, Zhan Xixi's eyes gradually showed some sadness.
She remembered that her father died, and she didn't feel sad at all, not even crying.
But now, she seemed to be sad.
Zhan Xixi's tears fell out suddenly, and the grief of losing her father made her burst into tears.
Even Zeng Yan outside was startled.
Zeng Yan hurried into the room and saw Zhan Xixi's eyes were red from crying.
"Xixi, what's wrong with you?" Zeng Yan asked hurriedly.
"Mom, I'm so sad. Dad... Dad is gone. Woo woo..."
Zeng Yan was stunned for a long time: "You...why are you sad again? Didn't you forget?"
Zhan Xixi cried even harder.
Zeng Yan didn't know whether to cry or laugh. Her daughter finally felt pain.
Chu Ruanruan and Ning Xuan left here with the sad ghost that was about to die.
The body of the Woeful Ghost has become almost transparent.
"Why?" Chu Ruanruan asked.
The sad ghost showed a shabby smile:
"It's better for people to feel pain. If she never feels any sorrow, like a puppet that doesn't feel pain, and forgets even when she's bullied, wouldn't that be tragic?"
"I'm asking why you want to help Zhan Xixi."
"I'm not helping her. I've lived in sorrow for thousands of years. This is the first time I've seen someone without sorrow. I just don't want her to be so clean." The sad ghost laughed.
Chu Ruanruan didn't say anything else, and the sad ghost was silent for a while.
Looking at the moonlight above its head, its body slowly turned into black smoke and disappeared from sight.
Chu Ruanruan sighed softly:
"There's only one hanged man left, and we don't even know where he is!"
Just as she was thinking about it, Chu Ruanruan's stomach made a protest, which became clearer in the quiet night.
Chu Runrun was stunned for a moment, and heard Ning Xuan's low laughter in her ears.
"Hungry?"
Chu Ruanruan nodded: "I didn't eat much for dinner."
"I'll take you to dinner." Ning Xuan said with a smile.
"I want to eat seafood and crispy pork elbow." Chu Runrun said quickly.
Dahei and Xiaobai also quickly agreed: "We want one too."
Ning Xuan looked at the three foodies helplessly.
It's already late at night. Fortunately, restaurants close late now. If it were a thousand years ago, the whole city would probably be under curfew at this time.
At a roadside stall, Chu Ruanruan, Dahei, and Xiaobai were gnawing on a pig's trotter that was bigger than their heads.
Chu Runrun ate quite elegantly because Ning Xuan had already cut the meat from the elbow. Dahei and Xiaobai were more aggressive, holding it with their two paws and chewing on it.
Soon, the seafood arrived, and Ning Xuan consciously used gloves to peel shrimps and crabs for Chu Runrun.
"The customs in the north are different from ours. The amount of food here is probably five or six times that of ours." Chu Runrun said with a smile.
"If you like it here, we will come here often in the future." Ning Xuan said with a smile.
"The next time we come, we'll have to wait until August. It's still a bit cold here at this time." Chu Runrun said.
"Okay, when this is over, you can come whenever you want." Ning Xuan said with a smile.
Chu Ruanruan held her chin and sighed softly: "I don't know when it will end!"
"It will be soon. I have a feeling that Mingyuan will wake up in a month at most." Ning Xuan said in a deep voice.
After dinner, Ning Xuan and Chu Runrun took Dahei and Xiaobai back to the hotel.
After a night's rest, I went home the next day.
At the same time, those who were assigned tasks by Ning also achieved results.
There were actually twenty-five of Xuan Mo's men hiding around them.
In order to lure these people out, there must be a trigger point that Xuan Mo cares about the most.
What Xuan Mo cared about most was Mingyuan, so Ning Xuan asked them to pretend to go look for Mingyuan's location.
Sure enough, after receiving this news, the people hiding in the dark could no longer hold back.
The power possessed by Xuan Mo's subordinates comes from the underworld. As long as someone takes action, Ning Xuan's net will capture their traces.
The crowd followed these trails and successfully captured most of the people.
Many of them were people they saw often but were not that familiar with.
There were students in their class and small employees in the company. They were all inconspicuous people, and they hid the negative energy very well.
When Chu Runrun and Ning Xuan arrived home, they saw twenty-five people tied up.
"Ruanruan, Ning Xuan, you are finally back!" Chu Qi said hurriedly.
"Sister, where are the others?" Chu Runrun looked around. Except for Chu Qi and Ning Yu, no one else was there.
"They are tired these days and are resting in the house!" said Chu Qi.
"What should we do with these people?" Ning Yu asked.
"Of course, we need them to lead us to find Xuan Mo's whereabouts."
Ning Xuan said this and walked up to a man. The man stared at Ning Xuan without any fear.
"You foolish and lowly people, God will not let you go!"
"God? Haha~Xuan Mo is worthy of being called a god?" Ning Xuan laughed sarcastically.
"Shut up and don't call God's name directly!" the man said angrily.
"These people have been brainwashed by Xuan Mo, and I'm afraid they won't tell you Xuan Mo's whereabouts." Chu Runrun frowned.
"What are you afraid of? Sister, I have plenty of ways to make him speak." Chu Qi said coldly.
"Ning Yu, go upstairs and get those little bugs out. I don't believe he won't tell me."
When Ning Yu mentioned this, his whole body trembled and he got goosebumps.
"What kind of bug?" Chu Runrun asked in confusion.
"You'll know soon." Chu Qi smiled proudly.
Soon, Ning Yu came down carrying a small box, still holding it with two fingers, at least an arm's length away from his body.
Seeing Ning Yu's disgusted expression, Chu Runrun knew that there must be nothing good in the box.
Sure enough, as soon as Chu Qi opened the box, a fishy smell came out.
Chu Ruanruan immediately covered her nose and stepped back: "Sister, what is this?"
"I found this bone-eating worm with great difficulty. If it burrows into a person's body, it will quickly gnaw at their bones. Not only will it be extremely painful, but as the worm slowly absorbs their blood and grows, it will begin to devour their internal organs. During this entire process, the person will not die until the worm has hollowed them out, leaving only skin."
Chu Ruanruan was horrified when she heard this: "Where did you find this thing?"
"I took an order not long ago and found it in a corpse. I don't know who used it to harm people, so I kept it. This kind of thing can't be used to harm people, but it's very good for punishing bad people." Chu Qi said with a smile.
