Chapter 554: Stealing a Chicken, Losing the Rice
Ji Yaoguang shook his head weakly, "I'm fine, just a few minor injuries."
Shen Wan grabbed her arm and took a look.
It wasn't just a minor injury. Her limbs were torn apart and the bones were visible.
"Oh, this little injury is nothing." Ji Yaoguang didn't take it to heart at all. He patted his chest and said proudly: "I said I would protect your body. I didn't break my promise!"
Shen Wan's heart couldn't help but warm up, "Ayao, you are great!"
"If you hadn't been guarding me, my physical body would have been destroyed."
"Hehe~" Ji Yaoguang grinned, looking very happy.
Shen Wan looked at the others.
Taoist priest Wang and his men were all in a dishevel, with black water stains all over their clothes.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, we are so ashamed of you!" Daoist Wang apologized, "It's my fault that I didn't manage my disciples well. If Xu Bin hadn't been distracted and the water evil spirit had taken advantage of him and torn off the talisman paper, there wouldn't be any more casualties..."
When the Water Resentful Demon attacked the living room, several more disciples died.
Chen Wan said bluntly: "This is fate, Master Wang, don't blame yourself too much."
"Now most of the water resentment has been led to Fusang, and the remaining resentment has just been dispersed by me."
"We can now summon the souls of our dead disciples."
Without the water evil spirit, the soul summoning went smoothly.
The souls of those dead disciples, including Qiu Yingjie and Xu Bin, came to the garden one by one.
They looked at everyone in bewilderment.
Taoist Wang stood up with a guilty look on his face and said, "My disciples, it's because I failed to protect you..."
Qiu Yingjie said with tears in his eyes: "Master, I don't blame you."
"From the day I entered the Taoist sect, I put life and death aside."
Xu Bin, who was standing by, saw his fellow apprentices who died because he tore up the talisman paper, and he felt extremely remorseful. "It's all my fault. If I had a firm mind, I wouldn't have been affected by the water evil spirit..."
Those disciples blamed him for tearing up the talisman paper, but facing such a terrifying water evil, who could guarantee that they would not be bewitched and harm their companions.
Since they have chosen this line of work, there are too many dangers waiting for them, and no one can guarantee that they will always be safe.
Several disciples walked over and hugged Xu Bin's shoulders, comforting him with red eyes.
"Master." Qiu Yingjie suddenly said, "I don't want to go to the underworld. I want to stay in the world of the living."
Wang Daochang sighed and said, "You are already dead. You should report to the underworld and reincarnate as soon as possible."
"Master, I don't want to go to the underworld either." A disciple said, "I still have family members in the world, I am worried..."
The Zhang family's children also told Zhang Tianshi that they did not want to report to the underworld.
Chen Wan suddenly thought of something and asked them, "Death will clear all debts. No matter what your identities were during your lifetime, are you willing to join the 749 Agency after you die?"
When they heard the number 749, not only the dead disciples were surprised, but even Zhang Tianshi and Taoist Wang's eyes lit up.
Zhang Tianshi was surprised and said, "Young friend Shen is willing to accept them?"
Chen Wan nodded: "The world of the living will not be peaceful in the future, it would be nice to have a spirit team that can catch ghosts."
Qiu Yingjie nodded excitedly: "Master Shen, I am willing to join the 749 firm!"
"I am willing to do so too!" Xu Bin and other disciples said.
Chen Wan looked at Zhang Tianshi and Wang Daochang, "What do you think?"
Zhang Tianshi smiled cheerfully: "Of course I am happy to hear this, I have no objection."
Daoist Wang nodded and said, "Office 749 is a good place to go. I have no objection. Your living relatives will be taken care of by my Shenxiao Sect. You can rest assured and follow Daoist Fellow Shen to work at Office 749."
The disciple ghosts cheered.
Although he died, he found a good place to go, and he can continue to catch ghosts and accumulate good karma. Why not?
"It's finally daybreak."
Ji Yaoguang looked out the window.
I don't know when the heavy rain outside stopped, but the sky was already turning white.
"Everyone's bodies are still outside. I'll call some people to help."
"good."
at this time.
On the rooftop of the Shen family’s unfinished building.
Kunai Hezi stared at the direction of Shanhai Bay and saw the resentment gathered in the sky dissipate, and her face suddenly changed.
"Didn't the Bone Girl succeed?"
"That's not right. Even if the Bone Girl fails, there is still that evil spirit."
"Its power is unfathomable. Once it arrives in China, it will surely start a massacre, staining the city with blood..."
Kunai Hezi stared at Shanhai Bay and suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Let's go to Shanhai Bay."
As soon as she opened her mouth, the phone in her pocket rang.
Seeing the caller ID, her expression softened a bit, "Hey, Okado-senpai, what's going on?"
An angry voice came from the other side, "Hezi, how did you lead that thing to the military district? The military district suffered more than ten thousand casualties overnight! The higher-ups are furious—"
"What?" Hisako's expression changed drastically. "The Water Ghost has been in Shanhai Bay. It's impossible for him to return home!"
Okamon Songchi said unhappily, "Come back and see for yourself. Master wants you to go back immediately."
"Impossible!" Kusanagi Hezi screamed sharply.
She finally managed to lead the water evil spirit to Jiangcheng, China with the help of the Bone Girl.
What’s going on? What’s going on?
"Get out here!" she shouted.
With a hiss.
A man in black appeared behind him.
"Master..." The man in black said truthfully, "We have been monitoring Shanhai Bay and have not seen Chen Wan and others leave..."
"No one has left, so who led the water evil spirit back to Fusang?"
Jiucai Hezi shouted angrily: "Tens of thousands of soldiers in the military region died. I want Shen Wan to pay for this with blood!"
Okamon Matsuike's voice came from the other end of the line, "Hezi, I advised you not to act rashly at that time, but you didn't listen. Now you are fine."
"Do you know how terrifying that evil spirit is? It is spreading in Fusang in an uncontrollable direction!"
"Not only did the military area fall, but the civilian area suffered as well!"
"Master told you to get back here right now!"
Kusanagi Hezi hung up the phone abruptly.
With a click.
She actually crushed the phone to pieces.
Her eyes, full of resentment and malice, stared at Shanhai Bay.
"Shen! Night!"
"I want you to die!!"
…
The first time that Shanhaiwan opened.
Li Hanting came back and saw Chen Wan was safe and sound and cleaning up the mess with everyone. The worry on his handsome face faded a little.
"Wanwan!"
Shen Wan turned around and met his eyes filled with worry.
"Why are you here?"
"Here you go." Li Hanting walked up to her and stuffed something into her hand without giving her any explanation.
The thing felt warm to the touch.
Shen Wan opened his palm and saw that it was a piece of fine ancient jade.
Different from the one on his body, this one contains richer spiritual energy.
"Jade is good for your health. I know you must have consumed a lot of energy tonight. I hope this jade can be helpful to you." Li Hanting said seriously.
Shen Wan held the ancient jade tightly and smiled gently: "It really helps."
She paused.
Only then did I notice that his face was pale, even his lips were white.
