Naturally, he couldn't tell Li Weiqing about these things, so he changed the topic and asked, "How are the casualties in Peacock Street today?" ”

Li Weiqing sighed and said, "Five people died, seven were seriously injured, and there were more than a dozen minor injuries. The public security in Jianghai City has been pretty good over the years, and this is the first time that such a downtown murder has happened, not to mention that the murderer is still that terrible thing. As a result, the panic of the people is uncontrollable, and the recent work tasks have been much heavier. ”

He said that Su Qiubai was able to think of the situation that sometimes the panic and violence of the people. Chao is even more terrible than these ferocious monsters, and if you are not careful, it will lead to the consequences of being strict.

But he was worried about something else, and asked, "What about the wounded?" Are there any specific symptoms? ”

Li Weiqing heard his strange question, and said: "At present, we only know the number of casualties, and the specific situation has not been reported. ”

Su Qiubai shook his head and said, "I'm just worried, I'm not sure. Because of the origin of the monster...... I can't say for a while, in short, they are very likely to be infectious, and those who have been exposed to them, especially those who have been injured by them, must be taken care of, even if they are slightly injured, they will be temporarily hospitalized for observation, and they will be allowed to leave after ensuring safety. ”

Li Weiqing was shocked again when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Contagion?" What do you mean? What happens to people who are infected? ”

Su Qiubai thought for a while and said, "At present, I'm just guessing, but if I guess correctly, then it is very likely that the infected person will eventually become that kind of monster." ”

Li Weiqing was weak under his feet when he heard this, and he almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, Su Qiubai helped him.

If this thing is really contagious, he knows exactly what the consequences will mean. Because according to what Su Qiubai said, there should be a lot of puppets, if their owners release them all, let alone the police and the military, even if Su Qiubai goes out, it is impossible to control them all, then there will inevitably be casualties. In case all the injured people become that kind of monster, and if it continues to develop, I am afraid that sooner or later the entire Jianghai City will be occupied by this monster.

Su Qiubai saw Li Weiqing's dejected expression, so he comforted: "Director Li, don't worry about it first, this is just my guess after all, it depends on the follow-up situation of those injured, maybe it's just a false alarm." ”

Li Weiqing nodded blankly, if it was just a false alarm, it would naturally be best, but since Su Qiubai had this concern, then he naturally had his reasons, and he would never worry about this for no reason. Once his fears came true, he didn't dare to think about the consequences.

"We must be on guard these days, if necessary, we can send troops to put the whole city on alert, although guns can't hurt those things, but once a situation happens, it shouldn't be difficult for them to delay it, as long as I can get to the scene, then the problem won't be too big, and we don't have a better way for the time being." Su Qiubai saw that Li Weiqing had lost his square inch, so he said.

Li Weiqing thought for a while and said: "I will go to discuss with the municipal department, try to let the citizens go out less in the past few days, and all schools and work units will be on vacation, so as to reduce the possibility of casualties from the source." ”

Su Qiubai nodded and said, "That's the best." Also, I didn't kill the puppet today, just to see if you can study its anatomy that will help us deal with them. ”

Li Weiqing nodded and said, "That thing has been transferred to the scientific research department, but the research results may not come out for a while, after all, no one has ever seen this kind of thing before." ”

After explaining everything, Su Qiubai left the police station and returned to the villa.

When I got home, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, and as soon as I entered the door, I saw Anya sitting in the living room, and when I saw him come back, Anya got up to greet him and asked: "Today's news has gone crazy, such a big thing happened on Peacock Street, why didn't you sue me?" Although my cultivation is not as good as yours, it is safer to take me with me than to go alone. ”

Su Qiubai explained helplessly: "At that time, the situation was urgent, and the consequences might be unimaginable if I went one minute late. And there was only one puppet I encountered today, and I was able to cope with it alone. ”

"Puppet?" Anya asked suspiciously, "Do you already know something?" ”

Su Qiubai saw that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he told Anya about Zhou's participation in the puppet.

"Xiaobai, you are really, why do you want to hide such an important matter from me?" Anya reproached.

Su Qiubai looked around and saw that the girls were all in their own rooms, and they didn't know that he had returned, so he said: "This time the matter is stricter than what I have encountered before, I am afraid that you will be worried, so I didn't elaborate." It's good that you know these things, a few of them should hide it for the time being, Su Su is timid, and Xiaoyu is a lawless character, don't have any accidents. ”

Anya nodded, and said: "Don't you put me and Sister Xin together, I have cultivation, although I can't compare to you, but I can provide a little help, this matter can't be carried by you alone." ”

Su Qiubai knew Anya's temperament, and it was useless to oppose it, so he said: "It's okay, but you can't act alone, that thing is much more powerful than you think." ”

Anya glanced at him and said angrily: "Of course I know this!" ”

Su Qiubai chatted with Anya for a few words, and then prepared to go back to the room to rest, but after walking a few steps, he felt a "buzz" in his head, and his thinking was blank for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he was holding the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand, and Anya in front of him looked at him dumbfounded.

Su Qiubai put away the Xuanyuan Sword again with a blank expression and looked at Anya suspiciously.

Anya saw that he seemed to have regained his senses, so she asked, "Xiaobai, what's wrong with you?" ”

Su Qiubai didn't know what happened just now, so he said strangely, "What did I do just now?" ”

Anya looked at the Xuanyuan sword behind him, frowned and replied: "You were about to go to the room just now, but you suddenly stopped after walking two steps, I thought it was strange, so I asked you what's wrong, but you ignored me, but pulled out the sword, and looked at me fiercely, that kind of look...... It didn't look like your eyes at all, it was strange and terrifying, as if it could happen to me at any moment. ”

Su Qiubai was shocked when he heard this, he didn't have any impression of these things at all, and for him, he was just distracted for a moment just now, and he didn't even have enough time to draw his sword.

Could it be that this is the effect of the Xuanyuan Sword's counterattack? This was what he was most worried about, if the Xuanyuan Sword's backlash was directly killing him, then he wasn't too worried, but now it seemed that the evil qi in the sword was going to devour his mind and control his body. In this way, he will become a more terrible being than those puppets.

Seeing that Su Qiubai frowned and said nothing, Anya was worried that he would be the same as just now, so she hurriedly stepped forward and pushed him, saying, "Xiaobai, don't scare me." What the hell is wrong with you? ”

Su Qiubai came back to his senses when he heard this, shook his head and said, "It's okay, maybe I'm too tired today, I'll go back and rest and I'll be fine." ”

Anya was not so easy to deceive, so she pulled him and said, "Don't try to lie to me, you didn't look like you were tired just now." Xiaobai, we can be regarded as friends who have been born and died together, don't hide anything from me. If there is any problem, it is better to talk about it and solve it together, than if you hold it alone. ”

Su Qiubai thought about it, this matter is not a way to hide from everyone, if you sue Anya, although you may not be able to control him when he is out of control, you can at least sue others to take precautions.

Thinking of this, Su Qiubai pulled Anya into his room, and then said: "Before suing you, you have to promise to keep it secret for me for the time being, and you can't sue anyone unless you have to." ”

Anya nodded despite feeling strange.

Su Qiubai took out the Xuanyuan Sword and said to Anya: "The Xuanyuan Sword is an artifact, you know, right?" ”

Anya nodded and said, "I already knew this, is there something wrong with this sword?" ”

Su Qiubai shook his head and said, "There is no problem with the sword, it is me who has a problem." The difference between an artifact and a mortal artifact is that it is a spiritual thing, and not anyone can control it. If the cultivation is high enough, it can suppress the spiritual power of the artifact itself, and it doesn't hurt. But if the cultivation is insufficient, it will be eaten up by the power of the artifact, and the final result will be to lose his sanity and become a puppet of the artifact. ”

Anya was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly said, "You have been counterattacked by the Xuanyuan Sword?" So what else do you take it for? ”

Su Qiubai's fingers swept across the sword body, feeling the cold touch on it, and the trace of evil qi, before replying: "If it weren't for the power of the artifact, I might not be able to easily kill those puppets, and I can't stop using the Xuanyuan Sword for the time being until this matter is resolved." ”

Anya frowned and said, "The puppet matter, we can still find another way, and compared to this matter, your body is more important!" Listen to me, and don't use the Xuanyuan Sword again. Although that puppet is powerful, it doesn't have to use the power of the artifact to kill it, right? I don't think Zhou Shen is so powerful yet. ”

Su Qiubai saw that she was in a hurry, so she comforted: "Actually, my situation is not as bad as you think, and now the evil qi in my body is not much, and it is not enough to control my sanity." The loss of control just now is only a moment, so don't worry too much about it for the time being. The consequences that Zhou Shen and his puppets can cause are stricter than you think, if I don't use the Xuanyuan Sword anymore, it may be no problem to deal with those puppets, but if I meet Zhou Shen, I will definitely lose. ”
