Chapter 29 Blood Communion
Ling Chenxuan slowly put the test tube back into the groove and closed the box.
"Isn't it an enchantment......" Cheng Xinuo was a little disappointed.
"I expected that. Ling Chenxuan didn't seem to be affected by this, "The probability of the enchantment in this suitcase is not high, first of all, it is not valid in terms of time, the ghost organization has a full twenty-four hours to deal with the enchantment, and our operation this time may just happen to intercept something from them." β
Ling Chenxuan glanced at the box in his hand, "For example, the finished product of the experiment." β
"Senior, what do you think these test tubes are for?" asked Cheng Xinuo.
Ling Chenxuan shook his head, "I don't know, but I think they're dangerous." He placed his suitcase lightly on the ground.
"Well, I prepared fried eggs for you, protein is good for anemia, I heard from others. Gu Fangyan silently put the two plates on the coffee table.
"Have a heart~" As soon as she saw Cheng Xinuo eating, she immediately became interested, she leaned out half of her body from the quilt to pick up the knife and fork that was handed over, sharpening the knife Huo Huo stared at the fried eggs on the plate. "Thanks. β
"It should be, it should be, there are noodles in the pot......" Gu Fangyan raised his eyes, "Oh!"
ββ¦β¦ Hmm?" Cheng Xinuo looked up at him with the cut half egg in his mouth, and the tender egg yolk juice was dripping.
Gu Fangyan's expression was a little embarrassed, and he subconsciously glanced at a few more places that he shouldn't have looked. Cheng Xinuo slowly lowered his head along his line of sight, and the next moment his mouth stopped chewing.
The pure white suspender T-shirt she was wearing was already in tatters at the moment, and a large piece of fabric was ruthlessly torn off, revealing a fair and tight abdomen, the lines were smooth and smooth, and her figure was impeccable after long-term physical training.
Cheng Xinuo obviously also realized that she had inadvertently exposed a large piece of spring light, her face was red and black for a while, she stared at him with a gloomy face, and at this moment part of her clothes were wrapped around the kid's hands.
Gu Fangyan swallowed his saliva and smiled stiffly.
Cheng Xinuo swallowed the fried egg in a big gulp, retracted himself into the quilt, and sighed helplessly, "Originally, I was expecting to take it to the dry cleaner to wash it, but now it's okay, there is a lot of money left." β
"That, I'......" Gu Fangyan was hesitant and didn't know what to say.
"Forget it, it's you, is your hand okay?" she glanced at his hand with a worried look. "Either I'll disinfect you, if you get infected, you'll be in trouble. β
"No, no, no, I'm fine. Gu Fangyan shook his head again and again, he seemed to clench his fist in order to prove it, "Look, it doesn't hurt at all." β
Cheng Xinuo looked surprised, "How is it possible?"
If an exorcist is injured, the yang blood in their body can strengthen the division and regeneration function of the cells, so that the damaged part can recover faster, basically a low-level exorcist is cut by a sharp object, and it will not take long for the wound to suture itself. But ordinary people are not so lucky, if they are not treated in time, it is easy to lose blood and fall into shock, and now Gu Fangyan is no different from ordinary people, not to mention that it was a bullet that hit him!
"I don't know, but it's really fine......" Gu Fangyan himself was also very confused, the moment he was shot, all he thought was that it was over, his hand was scrapped, and he couldn't take the college entrance examination...... But after only one night, he was like a nobody again, and the wound never hurt again.
Is this some kind of superpower? Does he really have the potential to be an exorcist?
"You bandaged my wound before, right?" Ling Chenxuan turned his gaze to Gu Fangyan, last night he remembered that he was blown into the air by the bone spurs of the giant lost man, and the last thing he saw before falling into a coma was Gu Fangyan's bitter face.
Gu Fangyan hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"Then your hands must be covered in my blood, right?" Ling Chenxuan continued.
Gu Fangyan continued to nod.
Ling Chenxuan and Cheng Xinuo glanced at each other tacitly, and the latter suddenly realized, "No wonder you were so strange at that time, I thought that bullet hit your media scripture." β
"What...... What do you mean?" Gu Fangyan was confused by this strange description, "When?
Cheng Xinuo's eyes widened in confusion, "You really don't have any impression at all?"
The doubts on Gu Fangyan's face were obviously no less than hers, "Should I have an impression...... Sister Xinuo, tell me the truth, what happened to me at that time?"
"Anyway, you were like ...... It's like crazy. Cheng Xinuo frowned and recalled the scene of last night, the original submissive boy suddenly changed, as if he was possessed by a demon, struggling to break through the shackles of his body.
"The exorcist's yang blood itself has a catalytic effect, and it can temporarily merge with the blood of ordinary people, but that process is quite short-lived. Ling Chenxuan explained, "Fortunately, the amount of blood in the communion is very small, otherwise no one knows what would have happened." β
He slowly picked up the knife and fork on the table and cut the eggs on the plate with a wooden face. "We've been in trouble now, we haven't been able to reclaim the enchantment, and now everything is unknown again. His hand holding the knife suddenly intensified, "I should have killed him at that time." β
"Who did you kill?" Cheng Xinuo asked unexpectedly.
"At that time, I found a secret passage in the parking lot on the second basement floor, and the secret passage led to a deeper space. Ling Chenxuan mechanically cut the fried egg into several pieces of the same size, and the egg juice slowly flowed out. "It's a laboratory, a makeshift testing ground for ghosts, where the Lost trade with humans. β
He continued, "I had plenty of time to find the enchantment, but a Guardian named Ming delayed me for a long time...... Moreover, he seems to have known for a long time that the Lost would come to kill us. β
"I'm sorry senior...... What is a Guardian?" Cheng Xinuo seemed to be a little overwhelmed.
"The king's living container, the only bearer of the enchantment. Ling Chenxuan's expression was solemn, "In other words, they are the only monsters that can resurrect the king generals. Now that the enchanters and the guardians are controlled by ghosts, we're in big trouble. β
No one spoke for a while, even Gu Fangyan fell into silence inexplicably, he found a corner and sat down slowly, frustration quietly spreading in his heart like a virus. He didn't know why he felt lost, but he just couldn't lift his spirits, and the damn suitcase he had bought for half his life, but what he got was some potion of unknown significance. Everyone involved in the operation was scarred, but fate was playing a trick on them.
As if sensing that everyone's mood was a little low, Cheng Xinuo broke the deadlock with a dry smile, "That, Xiao Yanna, is there hot water in the bathroom?"
Gu Fangyan was stunned, "Yes, what's wrong?"
Cheng Xinuo shrugged, "Take a bath, I'm almost dirty into a flower child." Saying that, she jumped out of the quilt and ran out on tiptoe, only then did Gu Fangyan realize that she was only wearing socks. She was so sleepy that she was so busy until midnight last night that she didn't forget to take off her shoes when she was lying on the sofa and sleeping.
"Well, Sister Xinuo, do you have any clothes to change?" he kindly reminded.
Cheng Xinuo glared at him, "Nonsense, will Miss Ben only prepare one piece of clothing when she goes out for a trip? What should I do if it rains? What should I do if I get wet?" She opened the suitcase and rummaged through the replacement clothes, and Gu Fangyan vaguely saw the colorful things in the suitcase twisted together under her flipping...... He turned his head, not daring to look.
Ling Chenxuan on the side was silent, as if he was thinking about something. After a long time, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Gu Fangyan, "Borrow the computer in your room." β
"Huh?" Gu Fangyan was stunned again.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The crackling sound of the keyboard sounded from time to time, and Ling Chenxuan was logging into the Dao Alliance forum. Gu Fangyan was snoring and eating noodles on the side.
There was a sound of running water in the bathroom, and Cheng Xinuo was taking a bath.
At present, the only solution is to inform Luo Fan, the exorcist who has arrived in Wuhan at this moment, Ling Chenxuan shared the signal source of the tracker with Luo Fan, his car is equipped with a global positioning system, if nothing else, the locked target should not be able to get out of their control.
Previously, after fighting the Guardian Ming in the underground laboratory, he manipulated the latter's Russian saber, thinking that he was only interested in weapons such as blades, but he didn't know that he had a miniature tracker embedded in the back of the saber.
Ling Chenxuan sent all the information he had obtained to Luo Fan at this time, including the failure of their operation, as well as the possible location of the enchanted artifact, and even the unknown lost person they encountered in their encounter with the ghost.
Every time he thought about the giant lost man who was as huge as an iron tower, he always felt a chill down his spine, the sharp bone spurs and hideous muscles, almost like a strange mixture of man and some kind of animal.
He didn't know how many similar monsters there were, but he had a vague feeling that they had only inadvertently touched the tip of the iceberg of the organization, and perhaps a larger secret was lurking in a corner that no one could see.
"That...... Tell me, why didn't you inform your headquarters directly. In the dense keyboard sound, Gu Fangyan said coldly.
Gu Fangyan thought that if I suffered such a grievance outside, I would immediately ask the headquarters for help, and call him hundreds of exorcists first, anyway, he has a clear location, no matter what ghosts and shadows are lost, without saying a word, he can directly raze their nest, and he can still make a great contribution.
Hearing this, Ling Chenxuan glanced at him in surprise, "The organization has a rule, if the situation is not completely out of control in the process of performing an independent mission, the branch will not interfere with it. β
What kind of bullshit is this!Gu Fangyan was full of black lines, "Then what is completely out of control?"
"There is a serious threat to the stability of human society in the process of implementation, although this is usually extremely rare. β
Gu Fangyan was on the verge of collapse, "For example?"
"For example, if the king is successfully resurrected, then the branch will send a special crusade team to suppress it. Ling Chenxuan explained word by word, "They are all elite members of the exorcists. β
ββ¦β¦ Isn't our current situation a threat to social stability?" Gu Fangyan continued to collapse.
Ling Chenxuan was stunned for a moment, "It's barely counted, but the exorcist has no right to break the rules, just like I don't have the right to change the course of Luo Fan's mission, because the task of tracking down the enchanted monster was originally carried out by him." β
He stretched out his hand and pointed downstairs, "I have my own mission, not counting the last three days of my mission today, if I throw away the time on the road, I only have less than two days to help him retrieve the enchantment, and when the time comes, I must return to the school with the Solstice Object." β
Looking at the guy's serious expression, Gu Fangyan stopped talking.
He didn't know what to say all of a sudden, as if there were some things he really couldn't understand, just like he couldn't understand the style of a madman. Maybe there is some kind of iron law among the exorcists that cannot be broken, and they have been silently sticking to their mission, like a group of stubborn and arrogant messengers, others will not understand, and they will not have the opportunity to understand.
And he believes that if such a group of people really exists, Ling Chenxuan must be the best representative of leading by example.
"Moreover, even if we ask the branch to send other exorcists to join forces to sweep away the ghost stronghold, the whole process will take two days. Coupled with our last night's scareless fight, the ghost will definitely be more cautious to pay attention to the movements around him, and he can completely escape in a very short time, and it is difficult to even a simple infiltration now, let alone a large-scale collective action. β
Ling Chenxuan was still calmly analyzing the current situation for him, Gu Fangyan thought that he had lost completely, his view of things was still too naΓ―ve, in vain he had fought the Demon Beast for so many years, and he had forgotten that a simple and crude attack would only outweigh the losses in the end.
"Then what should we do now?" Gu Fangyan asked weakly.
"I'll take a break today, and I'll meet with Luo Fan tomorrow. β
Ling Chenxuan knocked the last hit enter key and slowly closed the computer.
