Chapter 16 Don't go out at night



"What happened?"

Upon hearing that it might be related to the main quest, Chen Chu immediately became concerned.

"Last night, in my dream, it seemed like someone was tempting me!"

"Someone is trying to seduce you?"

Chen Chu misunderstood those words.

But who would seduce Haixin? Is she really that thirsty?

Hai Xin didn't care about Chen Chu's questioning gaze.

"In my dream, that person showed me lots and lots of delicious food, but I couldn't eat any of it, and I woke up suddenly in a panic!"

"After I woke up, I saw a spirit in the room. It must have been him causing trouble!"

"When the spirit saw that I had woken up, it suddenly ran away."

Chen Chu found it somewhat amusing, not expecting Hai Xin's desires to be so simple.

No wonder she wanted to eat roast chicken so early in the morning.

However, Chen Chu became somewhat puzzled again.

"Could this be the species from hell mentioned in the main quest of the dungeon? These spirits can enter dreams and awaken the most primal desires in people's hearts?"

"By the way, how strong is that spirit?"

Hai Xin shook her head and said, "I don't know, but since he's afraid and runs away, he shouldn't be a threat. At least it will be easier for us, and we won't have to go through so much trouble to hunt ferocious beasts."

“That’s true…” Chen Chu replied instinctively, but then suddenly added, “No! This instance might be even more dangerous!”

"How can it be even more dangerous?"

Haixin is not yet aware of the problem.

"The reason you weren't tempted is because your desires are very simple; you just want food. Besides, you are an awakened being, and your willpower after awakening is unmatched by ordinary people!"

Chen Chu's eyes narrowed slightly without his noticing.

"But the others are different. Those who have disappeared in the town may have been lured by these spirits!"

Chen Chu still remembered the discussion among the servants when he walked over.

Several people disappeared last night.

"What will happen if the others encounter this situation, since they haven't awakened yet?"

Haixin still didn't quite understand.

Chen Chu boldly guessed.

"It's very likely they'll be lured away like the townspeople, and they might die!"

Hai Xin became anxious. "Then, will Erpang be in trouble?"

Chen Chu thought for a moment, chewing on a chicken leg, "Maybe something will happen, maybe nothing will happen, it depends on luck."

"The only thing we need to do now is to gather manpower and ensure that all the students in our class survive!"

Hai Xin nodded emphatically, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say!"

"Whatever you say, we'll do it!"

Although Hai Xin is an Awakened One, she is also very powerful in combat.

But she doesn't like to use her brain.

If something can be solved with force, then never use your brain.

With Chen Chu around, she can finally relax.

After all, the most important thing in life is eating and drinking!

Do you want more?

Seeing that Chen Chu had finished a chicken leg, Hai Xin looked at him with a possessive gaze and kindly asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Chu had a headache; no wonder those spirits would conjure up delicious food to tempt Hai Xin.

"Thank you, class monitor, but I don't need it!"

"Then I won't stand on ceremony!"

After Hai Xin finished her meal, Chen Chu also came up with a solution.

"It just so happens that Master Wang is looking for a Taoist priest to perform a ritual today."

"We'll take this opportunity to bring the residents of the town over. People who know us will naturally gather here."

"You're right, I agree!"

Haixin has absolutely no problems.

Time flew by, and it was noon.

A platform for the execution of the law has already been set up at the entrance of the Wang Family Compound.

All kinds of talismans have been pasted up.

The Wang family also posted talismans on doors, windows, and other places throughout the house.

Meanwhile, the monk, dressed in a Taoist robe, was chatting with Master Wang in the living room.

"Miss, are you sure you want everyone else to come over?"

The young maidservant was somewhat confused.

"Of course, go and call for help. Tell them that you came here and received a baptism from a monk, so you won't encounter those things at night."

These were all words that Chen Chu taught Hai Xin to say.

"Alright, I'll go and tell the servants to go out and spread the word."

The maid was also very efficient.

Before long, a dozen servants began to walk around the town.

The news spread that Zhang Tianshi was about to perform a ritual.

Many residents of Tianxing Town put down their work and came to the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

By the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly, making it impossible to feel any gloomy or negative emotions.

"Master Zhang, thank you for your trouble!"

The patriarch of the Wang family was wearing a vest and hat, which were popular in the West, and was carrying a cane with a dragon head micro-carved design.

"It's alright. This is also to pray for the people of our Tianxing Town. It's what I should do."

As he spoke, Zhang Tianshi discreetly slipped the hundred-tael silver note into his sleeve.

At this moment, Zhang Tianshi slowly walked towards the altar.

At this moment, there are already hundreds of people gathered in front of the Wang family's residence!

Everyone is feeling insecure right now, and everyone wants to pray for some protection.

"Lord Laozi, may your command be fulfilled immediately!"

With a flick of his wrist, Zhang Tianshi's peach wood sword stuck a talisman to the ground without any further action!

The talisman paper also began to spontaneously combust without fire.

Hai Xin sat near the altar himself. As the main figure in Zhang Tianshi's ritual today, he naturally had to stand at the front.

Chen Chu, on the other hand, was looking around to see if there was anyone he recognized.
