Volume 1 The Yama of the Human World Chapter 2 The Hidden Plague
In the luxurious presidential suite on the 36th floor of the Fengling Hotel, the most upscale hotel in Fengling City, Chu Li was lying on a three-meter-wide bed, and his mind was immersed in his own memories and dreams.
"Chu Li, how about going to the human world tomorrow for the teacher?"
"No, let me run errands every time, I have to practice my sword. ”
......
"Li'er, count the time, you have been worshipping me as a teacher for ten years. It just so happens that Gu Xun lacks a substitute in the underworld, so you go to return Gu Xun's favor for your teacher, and it also happens to be your mundane affairs in the human world. ”
"Yes, master. ”
"The new Acting Officer, this king has three tasks for you. First, to ensure that the souls of evil spirits return to the underworld, second, to accumulate merit for the evil-causing things in your body, and third, to investigate the causes of the influx of evil spirits from the underworld into the human realm. ”
......
"Click!"
Just when Chu Li was still immersed in sleep, his sister Xiao Yi quietly opened Chu Li's door with a spare room card. She had already taken off her shoes, her bare feet, and tiptoed into Chu Li's suite. Xiao Yi gently pushed open the bedroom door, and when he saw his brother Chu Li who was still sleeping in bed at noon, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Yi quietly walked to Chu Li's bedside, and was about to pounce on his brother to surprise him, when Chu Li suddenly spoke:
"How did you get in. ”
"Ahh You... You're awake. ”
Chu Li glanced at the room card in Xiao Yi's hand, and remembered that Fengling Hotel was the property of the Mu family, so he asked, "The people of the Mu family asked you to come?"
Xiao Yi leaned on the side of Chu Li's bed: "Sister Mu Xi brought me here, but she didn't come up." Brother, that, can you do me a favor? ”
"No, I'm troublesome. ”
Although Chu Li's words were very straightforward, Xiao Yi didn't take his brother's words seriously at all, and begged Chu Li in various coquettish ways. Until Chu Li finished washing up and changed his clothes and came out of the bathroom, Xiao Yi's whole person seemed to be hanging on Chu Li's body.
"Because of the killing of the family?" Chu Li asked casually as he sorted out his clothes.
Xiao Yi, who was hugging his brother from behind, nodded hurriedly: "Well, grandpa said that the underworld agent has the power to call the evil spirits of the world. With my brother's help, I will definitely be able to find the murderer soon. ”
"Surrogates aren't as powerful as you say. ”
Xiao Yi said pitifully: "Dad took the people of his family to Guangyuan City, and Grandpa also said that our Xiao family's intelligence team suddenly lost contact, which must have been premeditated." Brother~~ I really have to ask you. ”
"Boom !!"
As soon as Xiao Yi finished speaking, the thirty-sixth floor of the hotel suddenly exploded with a "boom", and a huge roar suddenly resounded in the sky, and the terrible flames swept the entire floor. If it weren't for the strong load-bearing columns, the entire Fengling Hotel would have collapsed.
Chu Li, who had long known that there was a bomb in the hotel, had jumped out of the window with Xiao Yi in his arms at the moment before the explosion, and in order to avoid panic, he hid the figures of the two and took his sister to the park not far from the hotel.
There was no one in the park at this time, and there was some silence, except for a car that happened to drive by.
"Gee, that's not a strategy. Xu Xin, a shareholder of the Shaw Group, got out of the stopped car, "When did you return to China, I don't know how to tell Aunt Xu." ”
Xu Xin of this matter didn't mention how kind it was: "Yi'er, you are also here, it just so happens that Auntie is going home to cook, how about you go to Auntie's house for dinner tonight." ”
Xu Xin stretched out his hand as he spoke, trying to hold Chu Li, who would have thought that after Chu Li sneered and dodged sideways, a black air bomb shot from behind Chu Li hit Xu Xin's chest. The sudden attack knocked Xu Xin out of the air, and he fainted on the ground.
When the bodyguard hiding in the woods saw that his master was in danger, he immediately jumped out and took out the hidden firearm. But before they could aim, several black arrows shot from the sky, directly killing the bodyguards.
A figure fell from the sky, and the person's body was bubbling with red and black demonic energy, and his expression was extremely hideous, not even like a human being.
Chu Li patted Xiao Yi's back: "Xiao Yi, you go back to Xiao's house first." ”
Xiao Yi nodded, turned around and left directly. But the man with the demonic aura obviously didn't plan to let Xiao Yi go, his heart moved, and several black sharp arrows flew out. Chu Li waved his right hand, and a purple light curtain stopped the opponent's attack.
I saw that Chu Li's hand turned into a claw, and the purple light curtain turned into a huge hand and quickly grabbed the enemy. The man didn't resist either, and let Chu Li hold it. The man who was caught let out a gloomy and disgusting laugh, and his body turned into smoke and gradually dissipated with the wind.
Chu Li frowned, and muttered "Plague Spirit" in his heart, and suddenly a girl behind him shouted: "Xiao Ce, don't leave if you have the courage!"
When he turned around, it turned out that Mu Xi was carrying a blue and silver sword and stabbing at Chu Li, Chu Li reacted quickly, reached out and grabbed Mu Xi's wrist, and pushed the other party away with his backhand.
"The Xiao family's power weapon 'Jingyan'. Chu Li saw the origin of the sword at a glance, "In your hands, it's wasted." ”
Mu Xi didn't care, she raised her sword and pointed at Chu Li: "Xiao Ce, hand over Xiao Yi immediately, I saw you kidnap her." ”
After hearing this, Chu Li opened his domain to search the vicinity, and found that his sister's aura had really disappeared. It seems that someone took advantage of Chu Li to clean up the enemy, pretending to be him and taking Xiao Yi away.
Seeing that the other party didn't pay attention to his own meaning, Mu Xi unceremoniously swung his sword to cut Chu Li. But this time, before she could step out of her front foot, she was suddenly pulled by something and sat down on the ground.
"Yo, I'm still wearing panties with a doll pattern, which is pretty cute. Chu Li teased.
Mu Xi looked down at the civilian clothes on his body at this time, only to find that when he was eavesdropping in the hotel just now, because he was overwhelmed by the flames from the explosion, the clothes on his body were already tattered, and even his underwear was exposed.
"Ahh
After Chu Li took off his coat and threw it on Mu Xi's body, he got into the car when Xu Xin came: "If you still stand up, come with me to Xiao's house." ”
......
In the largest villa in the Xiao family's manor, Chu Li sat on the sofa in the hall and played with his mobile phone. Mu Xi, who had already changed into new clothes, sat down between Chu Li's two positions, her appearance was a little restrained, and she didn't dare to breathe loudly.
After a while, Xiao He, the current head of the family, came down from upstairs and said to Chu Li with a smile: "You are here, Xiao Ce's grandson." ”
"Didn't you calculate that I would come?" Chu Li put down his phone and stretched, "You also let Xiao Yi be a bait and forcibly pull me into your Xiao family's life." ”
Xiao He sat down calmly on the main seat: "Then you look up to my old bones too much, you and I are just duckweed in the great luck, and I can't say who is involved in whom." ”
Chu Li cocked Erlang's legs, not polite at all, "I didn't come here to listen to you, what's going on with that 'plague spirit'." ”
Xiao He took a sip of tea unhurriedly: "This has to start from five hundred years ago, when a plague broke out in Fengling City in the past that shocked the empire. It was a terrible plague that could transform into human form and already have self-awareness. All those who suffer from the plague are either dead or turned into corpses. Fortunately, the Mu family sealed the plague back then, so as to avoid the destruction of life. ”
Mu Xi seemed to have some understanding of the secrets of the past: "What does Xiao Ye mean, someone wants to unlock the seal of the plague? But the seal is under our Mu family, why did the other party kidnap Xiao Yi?"
"Back then, the Mu family went to suppress the plague in the name of the emperor, and finally the plague of the nascent soul was sealed. But in the process of sealing, some of the Xiao family's clansmen stole the origin of the plague and hid it. Later, after the East Window Incident, several traitors of the Xiao family were executed, but the source of the plague was never found. Now it seems that someone has found the Sealed Land. ”
"So they want to use the soul of the Xiao family to break the seal, but they can't control the plague at all, why do they do such a thing that harms others and is not beneficial to themselves?"
Xiao He paused, and he took out a photo from his pocket, which was the man Chu Li saw in the park: "This person is Qi Xun, the leader of the Xiao family's intelligence group, and he may be a descendant of a traitor to the Xiao family. ”
"If you want me to help you get him back, forget it. Chu Li suddenly interjected, "I'm not interested. ”
"Hey!" Mu Xi seemed to be a little confused, "They kidnapped your sister, and they ......"
"Ten million!" Xiao He, who had expected it, calmly called the price, "I can give you ten million merits!"
