Chapter 443 Hong Li is injured
Chu Qi opened the box and slowly placed it on the man's face.
Black maggot-like worms squirmed and drilled into the man's nostrils.
The man was so frightened that his face turned pale, but he still refused to reveal any information, but the others were not so determined.
As the bone-eating worms drilled into his body, the man could no longer hold back and began to scream, blood flowing from his nose.
"You...you are kidnapping! I'm going to call the police!!" a woman shouted angrily.
"Call the police?"
Chu Ruanruan shook the ID in her hand: "I am a police officer. What do you think the police will do when they come?"
"Xuan Mo's men who were sent to monitor us must have done a lot of evil things to follow him! Besides, are you still considered human beings now?"
Chu Ruanruan's words made their hearts tremble suddenly.
Yes, they possess extraordinary powers and coexist with ghosts. Are they still human beings?
"Human police only take care of humans. Do half-human, half-ghost people like you have the qualifications to seek help from human police? Haha!" Chu Ruanruan laughed sarcastically.
"If you tell the truth now, there might be a chance of recovery. Otherwise, your fate will be the same as this man's!"
Chu Qi gestured the bone-eating worm in front of them.
After a moment, one of the young women couldn't hold on any longer.
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you!" the woman said hurriedly.
"Where is Xuan Mo?" Chu Runrun asked coldly.
"I don't know where the master is, but I know the leader has a deal with the master," said the woman.
"Master? Which sect are you from?" Chu Runrun frowned.
"I am an outer disciple of the Maoshan Sect. Three months ago, my master found the Sect Leader. I don't know what they said, but soon the Maoshan Sect began to respect my master.
These people were sent by the Master to hide around the world a long time ago. Not long ago, the Master issued a message asking us to monitor you, so we started to act."
"How many people does Xuan Mo have under his command?" Chu Runrun asked with a frown.
"I don't know. I only know that the Master's followers are spread all over the world. There are so many of them, so many that we can't even imagine."
"Where is Zhen Yunchang?" Chu Runrun asked.
The woman still shook her head. "I know where the Sect Master is. He's always been elusive. We disciples scattered all over the place rarely get a chance to see him."
"You really don't know?" Chu Qi said coldly with narrowed eyes.
The woman looked at the bone-eating insect in Chu Qi's hand, which was shaking violently. "I... I don't know."
Chu Qi brought the bone-eating insect closer to the woman's face: "Seriously?"
A bone-eating insect had already crawled to the woman's face and was about to climb up. The woman screamed in fear:
"Ah! I'm telling you! The day after tomorrow, the Maoshan Sect will hold a Taoist competition. People from all sects will be invited to participate. You should be able to find him there!"
"Taoism competition?" Chu Qi couldn't help but frown.
Such a competition has not been held since the decline of various Taoist sects. How could anyone possibly participate in the Maoshan Sect's sudden Taoist competition?
"Since there is a competition, there must be prizes. What are the prizes?" Chu Qi asked.
"I heard... I heard it was the Qianyuan Pearl." The woman said tremblingly.
"Qian Yuan Pearl!" Chu Ruanruan was suddenly shocked:
"This is the Maoshan Sect's most precious treasure, yet Zhen Yunchang is willing to give out the Qianyuan Pearl as a reward!"
"This competition was the master's idea. It was also the master who asked the sect leader to use the Qianyuan Pearl as a reward."
Chu Runrun narrowed her eyes slightly, and a look of vigilance flashed in her eyes.
First he went to the River Styx to release the five ghosts, and then asked the Maoshan Sect to hold a Taoist competition to gather people from various sects. What exactly does Xuan Mo mean?
"Does Xuan Mo know that four of the five ghosts have been captured?" Chu Runrun asked.
The woman looked confused. "What are the Five Ghosts? I...I don't know."
"Really?"
As soon as Chu Runrun finished asking, Ning Xuan's face suddenly changed slightly, and the three little ghosts in his pocket were being summoned.
"Xuan Mo is summoning these ghosts." Ning Xuan frowned.
"The Taoist magic competition will be held the day after tomorrow. Xuan Mo is summoning these ghosts now. Could it be that he actually wants to kill people from various sects?" Chu Runrun asked in surprise.
"No matter what he wants to do, four of the five ghosts have disappeared, and the remaining hanged ghost can't do anything." Ning Xuan said.
"Now that he knows that the other ghosts have been captured, the competition might be interrupted and we won't even be able to find Zhen Yunchang." Chu Qi said worriedly.
"No! The invitations to the competition have been sent out, and many people have already arrived in Maoshan. If the competition is cancelled at this time, the Maoshan Sect will inevitably become the target of public criticism. The leader will not do this." The woman said hurriedly.
Chu Ruanruan glanced at the woman and said to Chu Qi:
"I'll go ask Mr. Hong. He should know about this competition. These people will be locked up for now."
"good."
Chu Runrun immediately called Mr. Hong, but the person who answered the phone was Qiao Fei instead of Hong Li.
"Aunt, where is Mr. Hong? I have something to talk to him about." Chu Runrun asked.
"Mr. Hong is injured and is now in the operating room." Qiao Fei said.
"What? How did you get injured?" Chu Runrun asked in surprise.
"Just last night, an evil cultivator from the prison escaped using Yue Congnan's body. He shattered Elder Hong's formation, leaving him severely injured."
Hearing this, Chu Ruanruan was shocked.
"how so?"
"I don't know the details. We have to wait until Mr. Hong wakes up to find out." Qiao Fei sighed.
"I'll be there now."
Chu Runrun hung up the phone immediately and told her about Hong Li's injury.
"Brother, sister, you stay home and look after him. I'm going to the hospital with you."
"Okay, be careful!"
Time was urgent, so Ning Xuan tore through space and rushed to the hospital with Chu Runrun.
Mr. Hong had just finished the operation and had not yet woken up.
"Aunt, uncle, how is Mr. Hong?" Chu Runrun asked.
"There's nothing serious after the operation. Now we just have to wait for the anesthetic to wear off, and he should be able to wake up." Qiao Fei said.
Chu Runrun walked to the bed and gently raised her hand, and countless peach blossoms floated on Old Hong's body.
After making sure that Mr. Hong was no longer seriously injured, Chu Runrun withdrew her hand.
"What's the situation in the prison now? Has anyone else escaped besides that evil cultivator?" Chu Runrun asked.
"When Mr. Hong realized that the formation was broken, he activated the defense mechanism. Except for the evil cultivator who escaped with the help of Yue Congnan's body, everything else was fine." Qiao Fei said.
Chu Ruanruan breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Who is that evil cultivator? How did he manage to leave using Yue Congnan's body?"
"We'll have to wait until Mr. Hong wakes up to find out the details."
As he was speaking, Hong Li coughed lightly.
"Mr. Hong!"
Everyone walked over immediately.
Hong Li slowly opened his eyes, his vision was still a little blurry, and it took him a long time to see clearly.
