Chapter Thirty-Six: The Dead Bus
The dreary summer air is drowsy, and during the evening rush hour, buses stop and go on the road, and the people on board look particularly listless. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info funny video without nutrition was playing on the car TV, and Yuan Ruolan's tense face was printed on the window glass, and all her thoughts were on the previous things, and she didn't pay attention, and someone in the carriage was walking towards her with bad intentions.
The bus suddenly deviated from the established route at the intersection and went in the other direction, and someone on the bus asked questions.
"How did this car get this way?"
The sound was not loud, but it still caused a thousand waves with one stone, and people moved their eyes from the mobile phone screen to the road outside the window, and the voices of resentment came one after another. Looking at the driver again, he was intently on the steering wheel, deaf to the disturbances around him.
"Open the door! I'm getting off! ”
A burly man banged the car door with a fierce expression.
"That's right! We're getting off! ”
The crowd was encouraged and responded. The driver turned his head slowly, scanned the crowd with an eerie gaze, and suddenly pushed hard under his feet, increased the throttle, and drove wildly towards the place where the lights were dimming. The big man who took the lead didn't know why, and suddenly fell to the ground, looking frightened, as if he had experienced something terrible. Some of the brave ones in the crowd stepped forward to probe his snort, and then sat down on the ground in fright, retreating a few meters away.
"Dead, dead!"
The people gathered around the big man screamed and retreated, and in an instant, the terrifying atmosphere spread in the car, and Yuan Ruolan stretched her neck, only then did she notice the abnormality. She got up to look ahead, but found herself stuck to her seat, unable to move. She didn't know when her arm was wrapped around a fine green strip, and she couldn't tell which one it was. She struggled a few more times, but it did nothing but deepen the strangulation marks on her body.
The crowd began to panic, and some people tried to open the window and jump out but couldn't push it open; Some people want to pry the car door with an emergency hammer but can't get it out; There are also people who want to pull the driver away but can't. As a result, people fell into a deeper panic, and many of them collapsed on the ground, looking desperate. If it had been two months ago, Yuan Ruolan might have been the same as them, but now, she was unusually calm. She carefully rubbed the little finger of her left hand while secretly observing the people in the car, trying to find the culprit of the incident.
Suddenly, a chill rose up in her neck, and the thin silky vines climbed up her neck, circled around it a few times, and waited for the last pull to kill her, but stopped at the last second, keeping a centimeter of distance from the snow-white skin. The man standing behind her was a little puzzled, a pair of hands controlling the vines paused in the air, and then found Yuan Ruolan's slightly trembling left hand, and at the same time found the faint gray air flow between the vines and her little finger, and a piercing chill immediately appeared in his heart. It seems that the prophecy of the Vitality Orb is not groundless. Someone in the crowd in front of him nodded to him, and the murderous intent in his eyes was heavier.
Ju Yanchen returned to the hotel, but did not find Yuan Ruolan, and hurriedly activated the elemental power of the metal in the city to search for her figure. In this process, street lamps, railings, and billboards have undergone slight deformations, which are difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, but they can't hide Zhuo Zichen, who is also in Hangzhou, and he follows the trajectory of the deformation all the way, and the dark iron fan hisses in the wind. Damn, are you affected too? It seems that the caster is not simple.
Yuan Ruolan's forehead was covered with beads of sweat, her face was pale, and she struggled to support the qi shield blocking the vines with her shallow soul power.
"Why hasn't it been solved yet?"
"Quick, quick, this woman is not easy to deal with."
"Solve it quickly, this group of people has gone crazy, the scene is almost untenable, if they make an accident and attract the police, it will be difficult to deal with it."
"You, why, do this."
Yuan Ruolan's voice was not loud, but the four people in the carriage could hear it clearly. Originally, all their conversations were transmitted by the vines coiled in the body in the morning, and it stands to reason that no one would hear them, not even the Onmyoji. But Yuan Ruolan knew everything clearly, and asked such a sentence through their channel.
Ju Yanchen's tracking had extended to the outskirts of the city, and there were few vehicles on Zhijiang Road at night, so he immediately noticed the speeding bus. After several temptations, he finally discovered Yuan Ruolan's faint soul power fluctuations, and of course he also discovered the same door in the car.
With a "bang" sound, the air shield broke, Yuan Ruolan couldn't support it anymore, she was dizzy, she only felt that all the strength in her body was drained, and the next second she was invaded by the suffocation sensation on her neck. The hand behind him holding the vine went around in a circle, finding the point of focus and preparing for the final blow.
"Stop!"
Ju Yanchen appeared in the carriage quietly, cut off the vines, and protected Yuan Ruolan.
"You, it turned out to be ......" Yuan Ruolan wanted to escape but was powerless, so she could only sit on the chair and resign herself to fate.
"Ju Yanchen! You! ”
"The elder only said that he would report in time, but did not say that he would kill her, and there was no evidence yet."
"Why not!"
The woman behind her knocked out the others present and walked towards Yuan Ruolan, what she was holding in her hand was the child and mother piece that Ju Yanchen had obtained from Ju Gou before. It glows with multicolored light as it approaches Yuan Ruolan, and increases and decreases with distance.
"Then we have to report and make a decision!" Ju Yanchen had no intention of backing down.
"Can you not be so rigid." The big man who was "dead" at the door stood up and moved his stiff muscles.
"In short, we can't act on our own without the orders of the elders."
"So, you have to protect her?" The bus suddenly stopped on the side of the road, and the driver stepped out of the driver's seat and stood with the other three.
"Yes, everything will be said after I take her back to Wuyuanfang!" Ju Yanchen glanced at Yuan Ruolan behind him, and suddenly remembered the agreement to go to Beijing with her.
"In that case, don't blame us for not thinking about the same family. Above! The driver gave an order, and the other three immediately approached Ju Yanchen.
I saw the thumbs, index fingers, and little fingers of the four of them conjuring against each other, making a unique shape and placing them in the chest cavity near the heart, and a steady stream of elemental power was drawn out. The green of the wood, the brown of the earth, the blue of the water, and the red of the fire complemented each other, twisting into a powerful air flow and rushing towards Ju Yanchen. He subconsciously lifted the iron plate on the bus, barely blocked the first wave of attacks, and carried Yuan Ruolan before the next wave of attacks arrived, retreating to the rear of the car, and at the same time using the metal plate to make a barrier.
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I don't have a chance to travel to Beijing."
Ju Yanchen looked at Yuan Ruolan and smiled, the same as what she saw in the hotel.
"Why? Aren't you all in this group? ”
"I was ordered to confirm your identity, not to kill you. Wuyuanfang is not a place to kill! In the second half of the sentence, he raised his voice, as if he was deliberately speaking to someone outside the iron wall.
"Thank you."
"No, if I receive an order to kill you at that time, I will do the same."
"If we can survive this time, I'm willing to go to Wuyuanfang with you."
"Why? You don't owe me a favor. Ju Yanchen looked at Yuan Ruolan with a surprised expression.
"Because I want to know why you have to kill me, don't worry, I'll run away then."
Zhuo Zichen was lying on the roof of the car, everything in the carriage was seen by him, and he recognized Yuan Ruolan as the person who cleaned him up in the coffee shop in the afternoon.
My enemies cannot die at the hands of others. He offered a black iron fan and said in his mouth:
[Gathering strength, heaven and earth change, wind, rise]
