Everyone in the conference room looked in Zhang Yao's direction with some hesitation. They were not sure why Zhang Yao came here. The people in Dongshan Town were not the patriarchs of major families. Moreover, the rumors about Zhang Yao were mysterious. Everyone couldn't help but pay attention to her.
Because of Zhang Yao's arrival, everyone spoke in a more polite tone, and discussed in a friendly manner what to do next for Dongshan Town. In the end, everyone said that the patient could not be saved, and there was nothing they could do but report it and leave the rest to the Zhong family to deal with. After all, Dongshan Town was originally under the jurisdiction of the Zhong family.
Just when they had basically finalized the plan, someone knocked on the door and said, "Zhong Jingsong is here."
This time when they had a meeting, the Zhong family who were in charge of this area did not show up, or rather, they started the meeting before Zhong Jingsong came. Naturally, this was to avoid the Zhong family and finalize the matter first, and then discuss it with Zhong Jingsong.
Zhong Jingsong was not in Dongshan Town. He suddenly learned the news of his father's death in the afternoon and hurried back to the Zhong family. After returning to the Zhong family, he got the news that Zhong Yi and Chi Shen had come out of Dongshan Hot Spring Hotel. After dealing with the affairs of the clan, he rushed here again.
After coming out of Dongshan Hot Spring, Zhong Jingzhu was slightly injured and was sent to the city hospital for treatment. Zhong Yi was unconscious and also in the city hospital. Only Chi Shen was intact, but he was also arranged to go to the hospital for some examinations. He happened to come back with Zhong Jingsong at this moment. After all, as the only living person who could run, jump and speak clearly after coming out of Dongshan Hot Spring, he really needed to provide some help.
As for the other people who came out of Dongshan Hot Spring, the students and surviving employees were all frightened to varying degrees. Some fainted, and those who were not unconscious were so frightened that they could not explain the situation clearly.
"It's not easy to go in given your current condition. Why don't you wait for me outside?" Zhong Jingsong's voice sounded outside, and it sounded somewhat polite.
"Okay." Another voice came. It was a soothing and pleasant male voice. The way he pronounced the words sounded very relaxed.
Someone lowered his head. Although there was no wind, he saw the candle in front of him swaying slightly. He was about to speak when the sound of the door hinge turning was heard.
Then, the door of the conference room was pushed open again.
They felt a gust of wind, and a cold and bloody breath invaded from outside the door. The candles on the conference table shook together - and went out.
It was not because the yang energy in their souls dissipated, but because the overly thick yin energy extinguished the candles that were burning due to the sensitivity to yang energy.
As the candles went out, they all felt a biting chill.
"This--" Someone immediately stood up and prepared to grab a weapon, it was obvious that a fierce ghost was attacking!
"sit down!"
The old man in the lead shouted, glanced at Zhang Yao who was indifferent, and then said to Zhong Jingsong who walked in: "What does this mean?"
Zhong Jingsong's face was full of fatigue. His father had just passed away, his brother was in the hospital, and his son was in a coma. Now he had to deal with these people and handle the follow-up matters. He was too lazy to talk to them politely and said directly: "The follow-up of Dongshan Hot Spring will be handled by our Zhong family."
Although this was the result of their discussion, their focus was obviously no longer here. Everyone looked at the handsome young man standing outside the door and did not come in.
"Who is he?" asked the old man.
The young man moved. Before he spoke, Zhang Yao, who was sitting in the wheelchair, moved. She had not said a word or made a single move since she entered the room. But now she suddenly turned her head, closed her eyes, and said in a weak voice, "Brother Shen."
At the same time, the tall man standing behind Zhang Yao also spoke, his voice sounded a little nervous and alert: "Unfathomable."
Deep and unrecognizable was the name he used in the death game. When they found out that in the death game, if the real name was known, it would very likely lead to misfortune, they used fake names or even online names when telling new people their names. Chi Shen was the online name he used.
Chi Shen smiled and looked at his old friend.
As he moved, the light from the corridor cast his shadow in the conference room. The old man said in shock: "Your shadow——"
"Sorry, this is my friend. He had an accident and can't meet you now." Chi Shen said apologetically.
"You are raising... raising..." The old man tried to say something, and a pair of blood-red eyes appeared in the shadow and seemed to be staring at him, making his scalp tingle. He had to swallow what he was about to say and looked at Zhang Yao.
However, Zhang Yao did not react to the blood-red eyes. Instead, his eyelids moved and he slowly opened his eyes.
Those were a pair of large, lifeless eyes. The color of her pupils was very light, almost silver, and in the pupils, there was really a circle of silver light, like the Milky Way spread across her eyes.
These should be a pair of very strange and beautiful eyes, but as soon as she opened her eyes, Chi Shen's expression became serious and he looked at the man behind her.
The man stretched out his hand to block Zhang Yao's sight.
"The ancient books of the Zhong family." Zhang Yao mechanically said these four words and then closed her eyes. At this moment, her already pale face looked even grayer.
"What do you mean?" asked the old man.
Zhang Yao did not answer. She sank back into the soft blanket, as if falling asleep again. The man behind her spoke: "Excuse me, we have finished our work and will leave now."
After saying that, the man pushed Zhang Yao and walked out slowly.
Just as the man was about to leave, he suddenly paused, turned to look at Chi Shen who was also at the door, and nodded to him: "See you in Hong Kong City."
Chi Shen looked at Zhang Yao who was lying in the blanket with her eyes closed: "Take good care of her. See you in Hong Kong."
The man pushed Zhang Yao away, and at this moment, a wisp of black air emerged from Chi Shen's shadow and wrapped around Chi Shen's wrist. The shadow's blood-red eyes looked in Zhang Yao's direction. Chi Shen's fingers moved slightly, it was a gesture of returning the handshake, of course, he didn't hold anything, but the eyes withdrew their sight and disappeared again.
"I'm here this time to provide a treatment plan," Chi Shen knew what these people wanted to say, and said directly, "The quickest solution is to let him eat it."
Chi Shen pointed at his own shadow.
Everyone else looked at him in shock, but Chi Shen didn't care. After he finished conveying the message, he turned around and left: "This is his own request. You need to thank him."
Zhong Jingsong rubbed his nose, stepped forward to stop the person who wanted to chase after him, and said: "The seriously injured in the city hospital have been successfully treated. You don't need to worry about the feasibility of this plan. I am here just to inform you that we will use this method for treatment."
The ghost in the shadow was not like this originally. Zhong Jingsong watched the ghost with glasses standing in front of the unconscious people of the Dongshan Hot Spring Incident, taking something out of their bodies and eating it. Those people woke up, while the ghost with glasses became more and more manic, but that kind of mania was also silent, like a ball of fire that would not burn you unless you reached out your hand.
Then he saw Chi Shen stretched out his hand, but he was not burned by the fire. Instead, he wrapped the fire up so that he would not hurt others or himself.
At that moment he felt that he had seen something very strange, but he did not say anything. Instead, he accepted Chi Shen's suggestion and let the ghost save people.
He thought again of Zhang Yao's words, and the predicament that the Zhong family would inevitably fall into due to his father's sudden death - perhaps they could no longer participate in the affairs of Gangcheng.
Zhong Jingsong rubbed his nose again and called his brother who was still in Gangcheng to explain the current situation.
Chi Shen left the Dongshan Town Police Station and was taken to the town hospital by people arranged by Zhong Jingsong. Ji Xingchen swept away the remaining negative energy, and those who were unconscious woke up.
These people are those whose souls have not yet been eaten and turned into monsters, but they have also been affected by Jiang Haotian's Yin energy and have a certain degree of cognitive errors. However, due to Jiang Haotian's sudden death, their cognitive errors have not yet reached the point of confusion, and they directly fell into a coma. What they have to do is to find and solve the thin rope formed by the Yin energy that affects their cognition.
The solution is Ji Xingchen.
"You don't look happy." The female ghost in red crawled out of Chi Shen's backpack, lay on Chi Shen's shoulder, looked at his face and whispered.
"No," Chi Shen said this, but he didn't laugh. He quietly looked at Ji Xingchen, who could no longer take human form and could only shrink in his shadow. After a moment, he said, "I just feel a little distressed."
The red-clothed female ghost tilted her head and opened her mouth: "Why, should I feel bad?"
The ghost face immediately covered his face and directly put the red-clothed female ghost back into the backpack: "Don't ask such questions! If you don't speak at this time, the ghost will think you are dumb!"
After a night passed and after confirming that nothing was missed, Chi Shen took a bus back to the hotel in the city prepared by Zhong Jingsong.
As soon as he entered the room, Chi Shen isolated the ghost face and the female ghost in red outside the room. He walked in alone and then closed the door.
"Ji Xingchen." Chi Shen stretched out his hand towards his own shadow.
A pale hand reached out from the shadows and pulled him in.
An icy breath surrounded him, and Chi Shen allowed himself to fall into darkness.
The room fell into silence. The two ghosts at the door looked at each other and lay there like door gods, not daring to leave, waiting for Chi Shen to come out.
It was already evening when Chi Shen came out of the room. He took a shower first, then went downstairs to eat refreshed. At the same time, he was thinking about how much salary Li Xu would deduct from him for skipping a day of work, and whether it could be counted as a business trip if he said he was collecting materials. At the same time, he was thinking about what Zhang Yao said about the ancient books of the Zhong family, and how he should check the ancient books of the Zhong family.
But before he could make up his mind, Zhong Jingsong came to him.
Zhong Jingsong got straight to the point: "Dongshan Hot Spring Hotel incident caused great damage to our Zhong family, and almost all of our core members were killed here. Zhang Yao predicted that Hong Kong City would undergo a major change, and we hope that several families can work together to solve it. The Zhong family is in a situation now, and we are really powerless. I hope you can go on behalf of the Zhong family, and we will give you the right to act as the patriarch - of course, I will also give you corresponding compensation, and you can freely view all the ancient books preserved by the Zhong family."
Chi Shen laughed: "Okay."
Zhong Jingsong said: "The originals of the Zhong family's ancient books are all stored in the museum. I will communicate with the curator..."
"It's not that troublesome," Chi Shen took out his phone, "Just scan and send it to my email."
Zhong Jingsong's expression froze: "Okay."
