Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Spark (I)
"Boom!"
The violent explosion might not be enough to alarm the entire pumice town, but no one who is deaf within three streets of the town will ignore such movement.
"What's going on?!"
Someone poked their heads out of the window, and what they saw was billowing black smoke and yellow and red flames, the light of which dispelled the darkness.
"There's a car exploding on the street!"
Someone exclaimed, and then the more enthusiastic residents called the police, but before any of them could actually dial that number, a rapid siren sounded on the corner of the street.
More than 20 police cars drove in from both ends of the street where the explosion took place, and in just a few tens of seconds, the street was completely flooded.
When did the speed of police dispatch in Pumstone become so efficient?
There were many questions in the hearts of the onlookers.
"Damn! it's too late!"
The leader of the team did not sit at the front or at the back, and after all the cars were in place and most of the personnel got out of the cars and entered combat mode, a middle-aged man with a shiny face got out of a car that was sandwiched in the center.
"Zhang Ju!"
The officers had already dispersed in all directions, and police forces had entered the houses on the street, and several police officers had taken the Zhou team out of the small hotel, and at this moment, the man could no longer walk.
He had a bloody patch on his thigh, and the scarred wounds were a combination of broken glass and car wreckage.
"Don't let a single mouse go in that hotel!"
Needless to say, the middle-aged man known as 'Zhang Ju' immediately ordered, and at the same time nodded to Team Zhou, along with the police car procession, there were two fire trucks and an ambulance, and they had already arranged enough manpower to deal with everything.
The wreckage of the car was still burning, and the fire shone on the faces of everyone who approached it and crossed it, just like the anger on the face of Old Man Song at this moment.
He was carried by two police officers, just like the rest of the police officers in the hotel, but compared to the officer, he did not have a single piece of skin on his body, except for his clothes being torn and soiled in a few places.
"You brutes, you will be punished!"
Lao Song already knew the intentions of these people, and it can be said that after taking in Li Xinmei, he had thought about the current situation.
He knew that sooner or later someone would come to his door and forcibly search the little inn for all sorts of reasons, even if they didn't need any reason at all.
In his opinion, the explosion at the door was just a pretext, a reason, and with such a bloody investment, presumably, his old bones would soon be left with no slag.
He is just an old man, and Li Xinmei is just a weak woman, they can't even do a decent resistance, they are good targets for bullying.
He scolded to vent his anger, but before he could utter a few words, he was slapped three or four times.
The police officer holding him was so strong that after a few slaps, Lao Song felt dizzy, and the blood in his mouth flowed, and he could only make a vague 'woo' sound for a while.
Old Song had no choice but to shut up, and instead stared at the two police officers who were holding him and slapping him.
At this moment, he desperately hoped that his gaze could kill, in that case, he could drag a few pads before being killed.
"Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh......!"
I don't know if a certain god who has been absent from work for a long time suddenly went online, and when Lao Song stared at the policemen, a vision suddenly appeared!
Several cold rays pierced the air, followed by the sound of sharp weapons entering the flesh.
"Plop, pounce, pounce!"
Among the police officers who had just dragged people out of the hotel, all but the two who walked the fastest with Team Zhou were hit, and they fell on the spot without even snorting.
"Ahh
The sudden danger stopped the follow-up police officers, and the scum in the township would scream like a girl who had been stripped naked and thrown in a group of big men as long as they saw a little blood.
The six fell to the ground, and the blood that flowed from under them quickly soaked out a 'map'.
"There's an ambush!"
The alerter officers shouted, quickly looking for cover.
Leaving behind the corpse and Lao Song, the police officers quickly withdrew behind the police car.
"Listen to the innkeepers! You are surrounded! Don't put up a defense!"
A police officer in his mid-thirties shouted with a bullhorn, however......
"Smack!"
His shouting had to be ended for the first time, and a throwing knife was sent out the moment he poked his head out of the back of the car.
The knife pierced his horn and stabbed the officer in the head.
A puddle of blood.
One life.
Good technique!
What a thought!
Zhang Ju's temples jumped suddenly, and then, he suddenly thought of something, and his face turned pale when he was protected by the police officers.
"Brethren in front, get out of the car!"
However, it was too late......
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Three explosions, three fires, and three more cars on the street turned into fireballs, following the police car in which the Zhou team had been riding earlier.
For a while, the flames were soaring, oil was raining, and the debris in the sky was shooting like bullets, and Zhang Ju was in the rear, and he was about to tear when he watched this tragedy happen.
Pig-like men!
If he could, he would have wanted to lash out.
"Fence it off! Tell all parties to set up barricades in town! If you let go of a bird tonight, don't wear this outfit for the big guy!"
Zhang Ju roared angrily.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
"Cut, this is forcing me to sin......"
In the capital, in a high-rise suite in an international hotel decorated with red neon lights, a man with a pale face as white as snow stood in front of the window and looked down on this strange and familiar city.
Outside the window, the night is dark, however, all kinds of vehicles are still flowing, and there are long queues of lights on various elevated highways.
The bustle of the city has just begun.
"The city's population is about 2 million according to the Internet, and if you only count the densely populated areas in the city center, the population may be 50% off...... Sizzle...... No, it's the imperial capital, and cultivators can be encountered in that kind of remote place before, if you are here, maybe there are cultivators lurking in this building......"
Under the operation of the blood clan, Lin Ming and others borrowed the name of a small country to board the land of the Celestial Empire, before leaving, the elders risked their lives to admonish, please Lin Ming to keep a low profile, this trip is best not to attract the attention of the cultivators, as long as the location of the 'Nuwa Stone' can be found.
Originally, such an action would never involve Lin Ming, a true ancestor with a special identity, but who let Lin Ming be able to talk about it? Outstanding eloquence is matched with spiritual hints, because he understands that Mo Ye is the kind of guy who 'can't live more than five minutes in a movie', so Lin Ming didn't spare his saliva and mental power at all.
After excessive consumption and hasty travel, Lin Ming's mental power has not yet recovered to its best state, and he has an urge to drool when he looks at the 'food' outside the window now.
An urge to have a 'sacrificial feast' had been entrenched in his heart for a long time.
"Smack!"
Lin Ming is not a person who is good at suppressing himself, or rather, he doesn't have much self-control, and since he already has a thought in his heart, it is only a matter of time before this idea becomes a reality.
Turning around, he draped the cloak on the hanger over his shoulders and foraged for food.
