Chapter 689 Modern Ghost World 23
When Chu Hongyou arrived, the talismans on Lin Xiao and the others had basically been used up, and they were all in a miserable state.
They were attacked by black fog many times, and only with the cooperation of their teammates were they able to escape danger time and time again.
It can be said that if Chu Hongyou had arrived a step later, everyone would probably have been defeated here today.
"Thunder is coming."
Chu Hongyou first swung out a sword to rescue Lao Chen who had just been entangled by the black fog, and then quickly made hand gestures with his hands.
When everyone saw her, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. They had been looking forward to her for a long time, and finally she came.
The next moment, the lightning net instantly covered the entire underground parking lot, enveloping everyone.
Shen Que's body was the focus of special attention. Lightning wrapped around his entire body like a python, penetrating every inch of his skin.
The ghost in his body let out a scream like crying, and Shen Que was overturned by the powerful force and fell heavily to the ground.
This time, Chu Hongyou used thunder magic specifically to target evil spirits.
For a living person, even if he does something bad, suffering some pain will only bring him benefits and no harm.
This thunder method can purify the sins in the body. Although the process will be uncomfortable, it will make people feel relaxed and their souls will be cleaner and clearer afterwards.
The ghost in Shen Que's body was completely enraged, and black mist gushed out from his seven orifices crazily, condensing into a twisted giant palm in the air.
The giant palm grasped the lightning net, trying to crush the lightning into pieces.
Just when the black fog was about to condense into a big hand to fight against the lightning net, Chu Hongyou moved.
I saw her put two fingers of her left hand together to form a sword gesture, and swung her right hand continuously.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!”
Seven cinnabar sealing talismans broke through the air, and the talisman paper drew a trajectory of the Big Dipper in the air, flying accurately towards Chen Que's eyebrows, chest, dantian, palms, knees, and back.
As soon as the talisman paper touched the skin, an orange-red flame ignited with a "hiss". At the same time, Chu Hongyu swung his sword several times, which turned into seven chain-like lightning bolts and penetrated into Shen Que's body.
Chu Hongyue stepped on the Yu Step and made hand gestures. With every step he took, the talisman fire became brighter.
When the last hand gesture fell, she suddenly clasped her hands together and shouted, "Seal!"
"boom!"
A muffled sound came from Shen Que's body, and the giant palm formed by the black fog instantly disintegrated, turning into black smoke balls that hovered in the air.
An unwilling roar emanated from within Shen Que's body, the sound filled with resentment.
Looking at Shen Que again, there was no more black mist surging out of his body, and he returned to the appearance familiar to everyone.
His chest heaved violently and he lay weakly on the ground, without even the strength to sit up.
Chu Hongyou raised his hand again, the peach wood sword hovered in the air, and his fingers formed a sword gesture.
"Destroy the evil!"
As she shouted, lightning struck down along the sword's edge, instantly turning all the remaining black fog in the parking lot into ashes.
The lightning faded, leaving only the mixed smell of burnt wood and sandalwood in the air, filling the silent parking lot.
She sheathed her sword and walked quickly to the front of the group.
Chen Que raised his head weakly, moved his lips but no sound came out, his eyes full of anxiety.
Chu Hongyu half-knelt beside him, her fingertips on his pulse, her voice low and steady.
"I'm fine for now. My soul has returned to its original state. Don't worry, just rest for a while. If you have anything to say, we can talk after I recover a bit."
It was obvious that Shen had something important to say to Chu Hongyue, but he was too weak at the moment and was too anxious to say it, so Chu Hongyue comforted him in this way.
Old Chen tried to grin and laugh, but it hurt his wound and made him gasp in pain, looking a little funny.
Lingdang and Xiao Tang supported each other and gave Chu Hongyou a thumbs up.
Lin Xiao had already come to Shen Que's side, helped him up, and the two of them sat together.
The incident was finally temporarily settled.
After Lin Xiao recovered his strength, he planned to send Shen Que and everyone else to the Yulingsi sanatorium for recuperation, but was rejected by Shen Que.
Shen Que regained some strength to speak. He looked at Chu Hongyue and said seriously, "Let's go to Songyun Temple. I have something important to tell you. There is no place outside that is as safe as Songyun Temple."
Chu Hongyou and Shen Que looked at each other and understood what was going on.
Just now, Xiao Tang and Lao Chen had told her what happened before Shen Que's accident. Combined with the information she saw in the master's notes, she guessed that Shen Que might have discovered the same thing as the master.
Without much hesitation, he replied, “Okay, let’s go back now.
However, Master set a rule before his death that outsiders are not allowed to enter the main courtyard of Songyun Temple, so I have to inconvenience you by letting you recuperate in the side courtyard."
Naturally, everyone had no objection.
This rule of Songyun Temple has a long history, and anyone who knows about Songyun Temple knows it.
If you enter the main courtyard of Songyun Temple without permission, even if you are beaten to death by the masters and disciples, your death will be in vain.
In the afternoon, the group returned to Songyun Temple.
Everyone placed Chen Que in the side room of the outer courtyard to rest, and then each found a place to sit down, and then listened attentively to Chen Que slowly explaining the reason for the incident.
It turned out that since Chen Que was sent to lead Chu Hongyue and his team of night wanderers, he rarely returned to the headquarters.
After sealing the Queyin Acupoint with Chu Hongyou and others last time, he realized that the equipment he carried was insufficient.
Although the tasks performed by the external team are relatively simple, no one can predict whether they will encounter a situation like Queyinqiao again.
So he planned to go back to his office to get two more lethal weapons and carry them with him just in case.
When leaving, Shen Que originally wanted to take a shortcut through the back alley.
Unexpectedly, I saw Minister Yu, the logistics director in charge of equipment maintenance, rushing from the back alley to the headquarters.
At that time, Shen Que saw Minister Yu’s face was pale, and hurried forward to greet him.
"Minister Yu, what's wrong with you? You look so pale and you smell like blood. Are you injured?"
As he spoke, Shen Que wanted to step forward to help, but Minister Yu dodged him.
Minister Yu pretended to be calm and said, "I'm fine, I just feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach.
You also know that our work has no day or night, and we don't have a regular meal schedule, so stomach problems are most likely to occur.
After all, he is old and useless.”
Having said that, Minister Yu shook his head helplessly.
"I just went to buy medicine because of my stomach discomfort. It was dark and I couldn't see the road clearly, so I fell. I think I broke my leg, but it's not a big deal.
"Xiao Shen, please don't tell anyone about this. If those old guys knew that I fell while walking, they would definitely make fun of me in various ways."
He laughed when he said this, and Shen Que also slightly curved the corners of his mouth.
At headquarters, you can always hear several leaders making fun of each other, which is nothing more than a way to relax after work.
The situation is so tense now. If I don’t find some fun for myself, life will be really difficult.
Minister Yu continued, "It's getting late, Xiao Shen, you've been busy all day, go back quickly.
I just bought some medicine, so I have to go upstairs and take it, and then drink something hot to soothe this unruly stomach."
