Chapter 46
When Meng Ziqiu opened his eyes again, he felt something was wrong with the folded soundproof board. He suddenly reached out and folded the soundproof board, and then...
Facing a large group of terrified faces.
There was a bud on Yin Li's head, to the right of the bud was Gu Hongying's head, and to the left was Yu Tu's head. The bud on Yu Tu's head was poking Qin Fei's face, and on one of his shoulders lay Lu Yayin, who was trying to stretch her head.
The five people and the fox lost control of their expressions because of his sudden action.
"Boss!" Qin Fei tried hard to suppress the fear on his face and put on a serious expression, "We feel that your energy fluctuations are different, so we gathered here to observe!"
Folding soundproof panels can block out sound, but they cannot block out spiritual power.
Meng Ziqiu was not angry. He just thought it was a little funny: "You are all here, who is driving the car?"
Susu proudly wagged her tail and said, "I parked the car in a very spacious place!"
No one asked him why the energy fluctuations were different. It was as if he had gone astray and then inexplicably returned to the right track. The carefree group of people became careful at this moment.
Since everything has recovered, why bother to pick at the scars?
"I did choose a great place to park!" After becoming a fox, Susu may have regained her original nature, or perhaps she liberated her nature. She became more lively every day. She pulled Yin Li's wrist and asked her to check the time on her phone. "Meng Zu, you woke up at the perfect time! Hehe, countdown to opening the windows and doors——"
The others cooperated with Lu Susu's noise. Lu Yayin stepped back a little and pressed the lift button on the car door.
"three---"
The car window was lowered a little, and a faint orange-red light flowed in from the gap.
"two---"
The car window was lowered a little, and it seemed as if there was light reflected on the sparkling water.
"one!"
Lu Yayin suddenly opened the car door, and orange-red light poured in. Outside the car door was an endless and mighty river. The morning glow in the sky was brilliant, and the red sun was rising slowly over the river. The rippling water reflected orange-red gold.
No matter how many times you see the magnificent scenery bestowed by nature, it always has a shocking charm.
Everyone got out of the car and stood on the rocky beach by the river. The waves continued to hit the shore, the boats made long and distant sounds, and cars were coming and going on the road outside the rocky beach...
The sun rises ten feet high in the Fusang tree, while everything in the world is as tiny as a hair.
The city day begins. Street vendors push breakfast stalls, donkeys carry children to school, street shops roll up their shutters, and people come in and out of office buildings...
This is the world they fight so hard to protect.
A wild man gets angry when he sees injustice, and sharpens the eternal sword in his chest.
The weapons in their hearts will remain sharp until the day they break.
Meng Ziqiu was lying on the rocky beach, watching the red sun rising higher and higher, and the endless stream of fireworks. The trembling that had subsided earlier became stronger and stronger.
The flickering sword light in his palm finally stabilized and gradually formed a miniature sword. Then the sword in his hand suddenly became normal size.
When the sword in his hand flashed, Lu Yayin quickly took out a special-looking talisman from her bag and pressed it to the ground with pain. The talisman disappeared on the ground. Meng Ziqiu raised his hand and swung a sword at the vast river in front of him.
There was no fancy opening move, no stunning accompanying effects, he just swung out a sword in a plain and ordinary manner—
Within a range of thousands of meters, the river surface was still in a semi-arc, as if a wrinkled piece of paper had been smoothed out to become transparent glass that could reflect the scene.
One sword to stop the waves.
One sword pacifies the river.
“Wow!!” Everyone exclaimed in disbelief, and then the exclamations turned into screams at the end, “Ahhhhhhhhhh————”
The power of the sword to flatten the surface of the river disappeared, and after rebounding it became a huge wave several meters high, which surged towards them like a flood.
After all, people couldn't outrun the speed of the waves. After a loud "bang", everyone was soaked like a drowned chicken.
Gu Hongying wiped his face and said, "It's so exciting so early in the morning..."
Qin Fei pulled his hair twice: "Fortunately, I used a spell to take precautions here in advance."
The tender buds on top of Yu Tu's head began to gurgle, trying to drink the river water that they had never drunk before, shaking their heads and spitting as they drank.
Lu Yayin touched her waist bag and thankfully said, "Fortunately, my waist bag is waterproof..."
Su Su: "Poof - the hair went into my mouth!"
Yin Li: “…”
She quietly tucked her long black hair, which looked smoother after getting wet, behind her ears and pushed aside her wet bangs.
The culprit, Meng Ziqiu, showed a rare look of embarrassment on his face: "I'm really sorry."
———At this moment, he had some traces of the past.
The chickens in the water looked at each other, and everyone looked very angry. Everyone looked at each other, and I didn't know who started laughing first. The laughter became louder and louder, and gradually spread to the surface of the river. The river still flowed forward, mighty and unstoppable, and the past was the same, gone and never coming back.

"I don't understand!" Lu Susu protested loudly while turning on the turn signal with the tip of her tail with a serious expression, "Why do I have to drive at this time?"
Lu Yayin raised her brush dipped in cinnabar: "I'm drawing a dehumidifying talisman."
Qin Fei: "I am contacting the Yigui Place to check the latest requirements for the opening of the boundary gate near the Plant Clan."
Meng Ziqiu: "I just broke through, I need to stabilize my spiritual power."
Each of these three had his own reasons. Su Su's foxy eyes glared at the three people behind him through the rearview mirror in the car.
Gu Hongying: "I just took the second test."
Yu Tu: “Never driven a car before.”
Yin Li: "Kunlun doesn't need a car."
Su Su: “…”
The desperate red fox stretched out its two tails and stepped on the brakes in front of the zebra crossing with a red light.
She drooped her eyes and said, "You are so unreliable!"
Lu Susu drove very steadily, as if she were an experienced driver, so everyone felt relieved and went about their own business.
Lu Yayin drew seven dehumidification talismans on her special small table and put one on each person. The chickens in the soup seemed to be thrown into a quick-drying bucket and were dried in a short while.
The wet and sticky feeling on his body was gone in an instant. Yu Tu grabbed his clothes and took a look, still finding it miraculous.
He took out his cell phone --- when he was drenched by the waves, he heard a special alert tone from his cell phone, which was a sign that the comics had been updated.
Yu Tu clicked on the comic website X. Tian Yan was recommended on the website’s homepage this time, and the number of followers displayed in the lower left corner increased again.
During this period of time, Yu Tu has tried many people openly and secretly. Anyone who belongs to the inner world or has connection with the inner world cannot see comics. For comics to be seen, a suitable opportunity is needed, and Yu Tu doesn't know whether the opportunity is far or near.
With a somewhat shabby mentality, Yu Tu opened the comic. The content of this chapter started from Gu Hongying's perspective, and the beginning explained the neat and tidy ending of Group 7—
The interrogation of Feng Wei's family, the pursuit of the group that arranged ghost marriages, the sealing of the old building, the registration of special circumstances in Huailin Town, and An Jiajia's handling... In just one or two shots, the impact of all the previous events was explained.
[Wu Hu! It turns out that only in comics can bad guys get punished so quickly! Cool!]
[The laws of both sides of the world determine the sentences at the same time, and if they overlap, they cannot be deducted from each other, so the punishment can only be increased. Who came up with this devilish idea, hahahaha, I love it!]
[Damn it, it looks like my wife will be out of camera for a long time!]
[Don’t you care about the life or death of the rabbit? ! ]
[Don't worry, he's still alive! Look at the smallest shot in the upper right corner of page 5, it's Gu Hongying's phone screen———]
Yu Tu also read along the commentary's perspective. The comic strip on the upper right corner of page 5 deliberately gave a shot of a dialogue between him and Gu Hongying:
【Punch the Little Monster】: Wake up! Wake up!
【缺月挂疏桐】: It’s good that you’ve woken up. I’m relieved then. Ahhhhhh. Now there are five black balls making a nest on my head. My hairstyle has been ruined. But it’s so hot in July. Wearing them is like wearing a helmet that automatically adds ice. It’s really painful but also happy. By the way, do you think they look like Q-version black pearls that can bounce on the ground? The only thing is that they have long claws. They look a bit sanity-destroying, but after looking at them for a long time, I actually think they are so cute OvO…
[It turns out that Yingying's mental activities are the same as his when she chats with others—she talks so much, but there is no punctuation to separate the sentences?]
[I am really dying of laughter. It’s ok that Tutu is cute with that ID, but why does Yingying’s ID look so literary and artistic, but it’s actually a role for making fun of others!]
[I used to think Yingying’s name “Gu Hongying” was very poetic. Now that I think about it, I think it must have been taken from his father’s naming poem hahahaha————]
Yu Tu: “……?”
He temporarily switched out and manually flipped through the dialogue box between him and Gu Hongying—there were punctuation marks! Did Tian Yan remove the punctuation marks in the comics just to make Gu Hongying a chatterbox?
This is simply out of control! We strongly condemn this!
When the inner and outer worlds merge, everyone will be able to see the comics... Just thinking about it makes me feel like I need to light a candle for Gu Hongying.
Yu Tu turned the page and saw Lu Yayin going to the supermarket and buying a big bag of dolls, including little rabbits, little lions, wooden men, and little deer... She carried the pile of dolls back to the old building and then pasted many talismans on the walls of the old building.
"Although it's an E-rank mission, the duration of the [Shackles] is too long."
In the comic, Lu Yayin showed an expression of toothache. She took out a small bead from the side pocket of her protective suit and threw it into the sky. The bead stuck steadily to the beam of the house. The comic made a note on it with a small box next to it - [Disposable Recorder].
"The expense reimbursement for this mission will require a lot of supporting documents," she said, and then breathed a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, I'm not the one writing it."
In the comic, a spiral arrow marks the figure in the corner who is texting on a cell phone—
[The unlucky guy who needs to write a document for fund reimbursement].
The comments were filled with laughter again.
After this foundation, the comic uses a double-page spread to depict the tower-shaped load-bearing column in the middle of the old building, the upward-protruding eaves, and the dark and unclear entrances. In front of each entrance is a yellow talisman painted with cinnabar.
The color of cinnabar is extremely bright in the comics, and the lines look like flowing blood. The eighteen-story load-bearing columns around it are painted in deep cold tones, as if something bad will pop up in the next second.
[Hiss… It’s time to show off my skills as a painter…]
[I just counted and there are eighteen floors. My heart skipped a beat...]
[I remember that many black people lived in this tower. Doesn’t this mean that they are suppressed in the eighteen levels of hell and will never be able to escape from rebirth?]
[This old building is pretty disgusting overall, right? Did you see the threshold in the comic? There is a custom in my hometown that if a family has a baby girl and wants a boy, they will kill the baby girl and bury her under the threshold or under the road, leaving her to be trampled by thousands of people. This way, the baby girls who want to be reborn into their family will be scared and dare not come.]
[? ? ? ]
[Fuck! This is a bit too vicious! ! ! ]
Filled with indignation from the comic readers, Lu Yayin pasted all the talismans and began to chant the spell.
Yu Tu never expected that the first time he saw Lu Yayin's solemn expression was in a comic.
As she chanted the spell, the densely packed talismans spontaneously ignited without fire, the eaves on the tower-shaped load-bearing columns cracked layer by layer, the beams creaked, and several bricks and tiles fell from above - the bricks and tiles on the roof had holes of varying sizes, and the sunlight shone in from the holes, illuminating the old building which had no windows and had never seen light before.
Dolls of various colors squatted in a corner where the sunlight could not reach. Some of them were lying down, some were sitting, and some were standing. They raised their heads blankly and looked at the sunlight that they had never seen here before.
The pitch-black entrance of the eighteen-story tower-shaped load-bearing columns exudes a thin gray air under the sunlight. The slightly old building seems to have been drained of all vitality, revealing the decadence of the century-old building. All the [shackles] that bound the infant spirits in the old building have finally been completely broken today.
"Come." Qin Fei patted the big bag in his hand and said with a smile, "I'll take you out!"
The dolls climbed into the big bag one by one and piled up into a mountain of dolls. Qin Fei zipped up the bag, and Lu Yayin pasted a soul-fixing talisman on the outside of the bag.
For fear of the impact of a living person's yang energy, the bag was finally handed to An Jiajia. Group 7's armored vehicles started and carried them out of the town.
The comic ends with a close-up of the armored vehicle. The vehicle is receding in the distance, the sun is rising, and everything is so beautiful—if the sunlight had not fallen on a window sill, causing the comic’s perspective to cut away.
Yu Tu's hand holding the phone stiffened slightly. At this moment he understood that the knife of comics had finally fallen on him!
Sure enough, when I appeared in the familiar room, there was his big head from the front.
She was wearing a hospital gown, had a pair of red eyes, and a small sprout was swaying in her slightly messy hair.
As if Tianyan was afraid that the comic readers would not see it, he not only gave the small sprout a special shot, but also added a golden special effect to it. In the special effect, the small sprout is tall and green. It is obviously a grass, but it actually depicts the pride of human beings holding their heads high.
[? ? ? ]
[Am I seeing things? The rabbit has grown grass? Oh no... the rabbit has sprouted?]
[Should we change the name of Bunny?]
[Grass plus rabbit equals...Dodu?!]
