Under the sack, Su Chen's handsome face contorted in pain. He struggled and tried to escape, but because his head was covered by the sack and he couldn't see the road, he lost his balance and fell to the ground in a sorry state after just turning around and taking a few steps.
What awaited him was even more ferocious punches and kicks.
Even the little Vermilion Bird took advantage of the gaps in Cheng Baidong's beating to peck at Su Chen's body with its sharp beak, and it specifically targeted tender places such as the neck, armpits, waist, and groin, pecking wherever it hurt!
Su Chen screamed repeatedly, shouting for help, unaware that Cheng Bodong had already set up a sound-isolating array around him.
Not a single sound from inside the magic array will escape to the outside.
Su Chen screamed until his throat was hoarse, but he couldn't get anyone to come to his rescue.
Cheng Baidong continued hitting until he was tired and felt he had vented his anger before stopping.
He stepped on Su Chen, looked down at him coldly, and then raised his hand and made a cut between his right index finger and fingers.
Blood seeped from the wound. Cheng Baidong channeled his spiritual energy, using the blood as a guide, and drew a talisman in the air.
With a single stroke, he formed the talisman, then pressed it down with his hand, sending it into Su Chen's body.
Cheng Baidong turned and left.
The little Vermilion Bird flapped its wings and followed behind him.
As he walked out of the back alley, Cheng Baidong canceled his invisibility and revealed himself.
Little Vermilion Bird transmitted her voice to him, asking, "Brother Dong, Brother Dong, what was that talisman you put into Su Chen's body?"
Cheng Baidong glanced at it sideways: "You're not calling me 'bad brother' now?"
"Brother Dong, I was wrong!" Little Zhuque chuckled awkwardly twice, then shamelessly and decisively slid to her knees.
It circled around him, saying ingratiatingly, "Brother Dong, Brother Dong, you're the best! Tell me quickly!"
Cheng Baidong teased it a few times, then stopped troubling it and explained, "That's a bad luck charm. It's a simple little thing, not very harmful. It will only make the person affected by the charm feel uneasy and plagued by bad luck. At best, they might get a minor illness or lose a little money. At worst, they might encounter some bloodshed or unexpected disasters."
Little Vermilion Bird clicked her tongue: "Even with a bloody disaster, it's still not very lethal?"
You seem to have some misunderstanding about what "not very lethal" means.
Cheng Baidong said, "It just sounds scary, but this talisman won't cause any danger to life."
Little Vermilion Bird said "Oh," and then asked, "When will this talisman take effect? How long will it last?"
“It’s already showing results. As for how long it will last…” Cheng Baidong pondered for a moment and said, “It depends on the individual’s luck. If someone is lucky, it will last at most ten days to half a month. Someone like Su Chen can probably last for more than half a year.”
More than half a year!
This talisman is great!
The little Vermilion Bird's eyes lit up: "I want to learn!"
There were a few mischievous kids in the pharmaceutical factory's residential compound who loved to use slingshots to shoot birds, and even the dog had been shot several times.
If it were just a joke, that would be one thing, but those naughty kids were aiming to kill and eat the bird, so they used really big pebbles that hurt a lot when they hit them.
One time, it hit the head right on the head, almost knocking it unconscious. Those bastards dragged it away, plucked its fur, and roasted it!
It's so infuriating!
It's been wanting revenge for a long time!
Just like that, sleepiness came to my rescue!
This unlucky charm isn't very dangerous, but it's extremely powerful!
This is a good opportunity to teach these brats a lesson!
Cheng Baidong glanced at the little Vermilion Bird's feathers and said, "No, you can't learn it."
"Nonsense! How could I not learn it!" Little Vermilion Bird retorted, "Don't look down on me! I'm very smart!"
"You don't even have hands, your whole body is covered in feathers, how are you going to draw blood as a catalyst?" Cheng Bodong raised an eyebrow: "Does it mean I have to pluck a feather before I can draw the talisman?"
Little Vermilion Bird: "..."
I'm not good enough for you!
I really want to transform into a human, waaaaaah TT
The little Vermilion Bird suddenly became depressed, and it couldn't even muster the energy to fly. It landed on Cheng Baidong's shoulder, its neck drooping, and didn't say a word.
Cheng Baidong softened and said, "When we get back to the capital, I'll get you some talisman paper. You can use it first. We can talk about learning how to draw talismans later."
The talisman paper has limited carrying capacity and even less effect, so giving it to someone might cause trouble.
Hearing Cheng Baidong's words, Xiao Zhuque's spirits lifted again.
"Brother Dong, I knew you were the best!"
Cheng Baidong smiled and joked, "Now you're saying I'm the best? Your sister Xiao Qiao will be heartbroken if she hears that."
"Hello everyone! The order doesn't matter!" Little Vermilion Bird chuckled twice, a sly glint in her green bean eyes.
It changed the subject: "Su Chen has already taught us a lesson, where do we go next?"
"Go to the department store."
The county seat is far from Chengzhuang Village, so it's not easy to get there.
Since we're already here, we might as well take some things back with us.
Meanwhile, Su Chen was still lying on the ground, groaning in pain. His whole body ached terribly, and he didn't even have the strength to get up.
In the early autumn air, he lay on the cold ground for a good ten minutes before he finally recovered.
Using both hands and feet, Su Chen first tore off the burlap sack covering his body, then struggled to his feet and limped out of the alley.
He returned to the post office, and as soon as he entered, his bruised and swollen face startled his colleagues: "Su Chen? You, what happened to you?"
Others also gathered around.
"You... got beaten up?"
"My God, who the hell did this? That was way too brutal!"
"Look at this face, it's swollen like a pig's head, there's not a single good spot left."
"Oh dear, this is terrible! They should go to the hospital, right?"
Su Chen wanted to call the police first and then go to the hospital. After saying a few words to her colleagues, she went to ask her supervisor for leave.
The post office wasn't very strict, and when Su Chen's supervisor saw his miserable state, he readily agreed to his request.
The police station and the post office are on the same street, not far apart, and everyone knows each other.
As soon as Su Chen said he wanted to report the case, the police officer he knew received him attentively.
However, Su Chen knew nothing about the matter, and even though they were familiar with each other, the police felt embarrassed.
"Your situation... is not easy to handle."
We don't know who hit him, how many people were involved, or whether there were any eyewitnesses.
How was he supposed to handle the case?
The police questioned him repeatedly, but all they could get was that a young man had called him out of the post office, but he didn't know who that young man was...
There was absolutely no useful information; where was he supposed to find anyone?
Left with no other option, the police officer he knew told him to go back first and come back later if he came up with any evidence.
Su Chen had no choice but to leave.
As a result, the person had just ridden his bicycle out of the police station when he fell into a ditch by the roadside.
It's still a cesspool.
Su Chen's face turned green.
