Chapter 16: Time is Running Out

Lan Muyu didn't know why Wu Wei suddenly asked this, but Wu Wei behaved very naturally, so she didn't think much about it.

Lan Muyu said to Wu Wei: "I have the talisman of Liuyue Dao Chang Kaiguang on my body, but Xiaoxue has never worn it. Speaking of which, it wasn't you and Murong Jie who protected the two of us these times, so we could be safe and sound, and it had nothing to do with the talisman. ”

"Oh, doesn't it work?"

"It's not ineffective." Lan Muyu said: "Because my birthday is yin, I often see things that others can't see since I was a child. ”

"Something that no one else sees?"

"yes, ghosts, spirits, and whatever. You also grew up here in Lucheng since you were a child, and you should know that this place in Lucheng is more evil, and there seem to be a lot of weird and weird things. ”

Wu Wei was noncommittal: "Indeed, when I was a child, I grew up in the countryside on the outskirts of Lucheng, and there were more evil things in the village. ”

"That's right!" Lan Muyu: "When I was a child, I often bumped into those evil spirits, but nothing major happened. The most serious time was when I ran into a yellow demon out of nowhere, which was the weasel spirit, and in some places they were called yellow fairies, but I knew they were not immortals. Ever since I collided with the Yellow Demon, I often have sudden panics, coma for no reason, and even terrifying hallucinations. ”

Suddenly panicked and fell into a coma for no reason...... Wu Wei suddenly thought that he was like this two days ago, and he was arrested by Qing Shao.

"One time I was working in the office and suddenly I was delirious. Later, I went to the roof in a daze and almost jumped off the building, but fortunately, a few employees noticed that something was wrong with me and followed me to save me. It wasn't until this life-threatening situation that my dad realized the seriousness of the problem, and he quickly invited the head of the Yanagitsuki Dao. Daoist Liu Yue wanted to find out the Yellow Demon and destroy it directly, but he didn't expect that the Yellow Demon to be particularly cunning. At that time, Daoist Liu Yue cast a spell and injured the Yellow Demon's Yuan Shen, but this guy still escaped. ”

"Daoist Liu Yue said that the Yellow Demon holds a grudge and will definitely come back to me in the future. And it's not a way for my physique to bump into those things a lot, so I discussed with my dad to ask for a talisman for me to carry with me. ”

Wu Wei asked thoughtfully, "So, the talisman was invited from Daoist Liuyue?" ”

"I guess, I don't know. Anyway, this amulet is quite spiritual, and after wearing it, nothing has happened again, and I have never seen anything like evil again. What's the matter, you seem to be interested in my amulet? ”

I don't know if Lan Muyu really doesn't know the origin of the talisman, or if she is deliberately hiding something. Wu Wei didn't deny it: "It's a little interested, because my grandfather also became a Taoist priest, and I've been interested in these charms and the like since I was a child." Can I take a look at your amulet? ”

Lan Muyu hesitated for a moment but agreed: "My dad said that it is easy not to show people when you wear a talisman, but I and my family don't treat you as an outsider, so it's okay to show you." ”

As he spoke, Lan Muyu took out the talisman he was wearing around his neck. The appearance of the talisman is similar to what Lan Muxue said, a crystal bead with a diameter of about two centimeters, the bead looks crystal clear, and there are a few wisps of water vapor lingering in the heart of the bead, which is a treasure at a glance. There is a silver buckle on the outside of the bead to fix the bead in the middle, so that it is easy to hang on the necklace and wear, it seems that the outer silver buckle is not one with the bead itself.

Just as Wu Wei was carefully observing the talisman, he inexplicably felt that there were other eyes looking at this place in this restaurant. Wu Wei turned his head instantly, and his eyes looked in the direction of his feelings. Just behind the right, next to the door, sat a middle-aged man with a rickety figure and a monkey cheek, squinting at the amulet in Lan Muyu's hand with shining eyes at the moment.

Wu Wei suddenly turned his head to meet his eyes, the middle-aged man first froze for a moment, and then a greedy and treacherous smile slowly appeared on his face.

Lan Muyu was startled by Wu You's sudden movements, and couldn't help but look in the direction of Wu You's turning head, and asked Wu Wei: "What's wrong, what did you see?" ”

In the blink of an eye, under Wu Wei's gaze, that person disappeared like a ghost all at once, so Lan Muyu didn't see anyone.

Wu Wei hurriedly asked Lan Muyu to put away the talisman, Lan Muyu asked him what he saw, Wu Wei just shook his head and said that he was dazzled. However, Wu Wei knew in his heart that the person just now was definitely abnormal, and he didn't know if he was attracted by Lan Muyu's amulet, or if he had been following the two of them.

After lunch, the two returned to the Lan family villa, and everyone was sitting in the living room, as if discussing something. Lan Muxue sat alone in the corner bored, and after seeing Wu Wei, Lan Muxue's originally slightly boring face instantly bloomed with a smile.

Lan Mingyu and Long Bo were still very kind when they saw Wu You, and they didn't seem to be affected by Wu Wu's words last night. Seeing everyone's attitude towards him, Wu Wei felt that he was too sensitive last night, but he was a little embarrassed.

Wu Wei took the initiative to ask about King Kong's situation, and learned that King Kong was still in a coma, but his pulse was stable, and the snake venom had subsided quickly.

King Kong had been brought back to recuperate, and Lan Mingyu asked Lan Muxue to take Wu Wei to King Kong's room to have a look. Lan Muxue seemed to have wanted to escape from this boring room for a long time, so she happily took Wu Wei's arm and left the conference room.

Seeing that Lan Muxue was so close to him, Wu Wei suddenly thought of the words of the woman in red last night, and felt that it would be better for him to be estranged from Lan Muxue in the future, so as not to affect other little girls.

Came to King Kong's room on the third floor, at this time Ash San'er was guarding here, and after seeing Wu Wu, he stood up and smiled at Wu Wu and said, "Thank you for saving King Kong's life last night." Wu Wei said embarrassedly: "It should be!" ”

Usually Gray San'er and King Kong are inseparable, and the relationship between the two is particularly good, so for Wu Wei who saved King Kong, Gray San'er is full of gratitude.

Walking to King Kong's bed, Wu Wei lifted the quilt and checked King Kong's body, and found that the knife wounds he had suffered before had healed, and only his legs were still a little swollen, indicating that most of the snake venom had receded. Wu Wei himself didn't expect that the transformation of human beings would have such a magical effect, but when he saw King Kong, he remembered the poisonous blood he had sucked into his stomach last night, and his body felt chills for no reason.

Originally, there was already Gu poison in his stomach, and now he has inhaled so much snake venom, coupled with the curse of the human snake after being bitten by the female lu, and now he is simply riddled with poison.

After coming out of King Kong's room, Wu Wei knew that Lan Mingyu and they were talking, and he didn't want to follow along, so he went back to their own residence with Lan Muxue. The two villas are not far away, and the two chatted while walking. Lan Muxue seemed to have endless words beside Wu Wei, but Wu Wu looked absent-minded and didn't want to say more.

When he walked to the door of the villa, Wu Wei felt that someone was looking at him from behind, so he turned his head and saw the middle-aged man he saw in the restaurant at noon, and he was standing not far away staring at Wu Wei at this time. Seeing that Wu Wei had discovered him, he didn't dodge it, and smiled at Wu Wu.

Wu Wei didn't know what the other party meant, so he let Lan Muxue into the house first, and then walked towards the middle-aged man by himself.

Seeing him coming, the middle-aged man did not disappear this time, as if he was waiting for him. After approaching, Wu Wei saw the other party's appearance clearly, with a short figure, a waist bent, and two sparse white beards on his thin mouth.

"You've been stalking me?" Wu Wei stepped forward and asked him vigilantly, "Who are you?" ”

The middle-aged man showed a lewd smile at him: "In Xia Huang Kun, I came to remind you that the deadline for you has passed halfway, how has Qing Shao explained your business?" ”

Wu Wei also guessed that he should be sent by Qing Shao, so he said: "The time of three days is too tight, I have tried my best to find the spirit rune, but I have never seen what the spirit rune looks like before, so this matter is more difficult." ”

Huang Kun had a suspicious expression: "When you had dinner with Lan Mingyu's eldest girl at noon, didn't you see the appearance of the spirit rune?" ”

Wu Wei knew that he saw Lan Muyu's talisman, and he didn't hide it: "That's just the talisman she wore, how do I know if it's what kind of talisman your master wants." ”

"You'd better not play tricks, I can feel that the talisman on that girl's body is not ordinary, nine times out of ten it is the spirit talisman of the Lan family."

Listening to Huang Kun's words, he was actually not sure if it was a spirit rune, so Wu Wei said, "Do you think that such an important spirit rune Lan Mingyu would let his daughter wear it casually?" Whether or not I will investigate it myself, even if I can't get the spirit talisman in the end, it is useless for you to torture me to death! ”

After Wu Wei finished speaking, the corners of Huang Kun's mouth twitched: "Boy, don't be hard-mouthed, if this thing can't be done, you will know what life is better than death!" ”

Regarding Huang Kunde's threat, Wu Wei still looked indifferent, and turned around to leave. But just when he hadn't taken a few steps, a sudden feeling of emptiness hit him, and his brain instantly became in a trance. But this time, Wu Wei realized that something was wrong, and immediately bit the tip of his tongue, and the pain kept him awake.

Wu Wei turned around to see that Huang Kun had disappeared.

"Looks like he knocked me out last time!" Wu Wei thought in his heart, sooner or later, I will settle accounts with you!

Because a lot of things have happened recently, Lan Muxue honestly stayed at home and didn't go anywhere. Wu Wei, as her bodyguard, also stayed with her. Wu Wei thought of today's middle-aged people, afraid that these people would secretly beat the idea of the Lan Muxue sisters. Although he is now following Lan Muxue inch by inch, but just in case, he persuaded Lan Muxue to wear her talisman on her body.

Lan Muxue was reluctant to wear it at first, she felt that her talisman was too ugly, but under Wu Wei's constant persuasion, Lan Muxue finally agreed to go back to Lan Mingyu's villa at night to get the talisman.

Because of the woman in red, Wu Wei has always kept a distance from Lan Muxue at home, and Lan Muxue also felt that Wu Wei didn't seem to be very willing to take care of her, so she pouted happily all afternoon.

At about five o'clock in the afternoon, there was a sudden knock on the door, because there had been too much danger recently, so Wu Wei became vigilant when he heard the knock.

"Who?" Wu Wei walked to the door, did not rush to open the door first, but asked the identity of the outsider.

"Liu Yue!"

The outsider's answer made Wu Wei chuckle in his heart, Daoist Liu Yue?

Wu Wei hurriedly opened the door, only to see a man standing at the door, wearing a clear Taoist robe, with long gray and white silver hair combed behind his head, and a handsome and calm face that could not tell his age.

He is the head of the Liuyue Dao? Wu Wei looked at the man standing outside the door, he didn't expect him to come to him so suddenly. Surprised and didn't know what to say, Wu thought to himself, finally seeing a living person!

"What's that expression, haven't you always wanted to see me? I'm at your door, won't you invite me in and sit down? Daoist Liu Yue had a friendly smile on his face, and said jokingly to Wu Wei: "Look at your surprised appearance, am I too scary?" No, I think I'm pretty handsome. ”

Daoist Liu Yue's smile made Wu Wei feel inexplicably kind, he quickly turned to the side, and smiled embarrassedly: "No...... The Taoist is very handsome, hehe, I'm a little excited, please come in! ”

At this time, Lan Muxue also ran over, she saw that Daoist Liu Yue looked very familiar, and finally showed a smiling face, and greeted: "Uncle Liu Yue, why are you here?" ”

"Poor Dao doesn't miss you, little girl, come and see you!" Liu Yue said and patted Lan Muxue's little head gently: "Xiaoxue has become beautiful again, last time I came to do something for your father, where did you go, and my uncle didn't see you." ”

"Hehe, I wasn't at home last time, Uncle Liuyue, you're handsome again!"

Wu Wei didn't expect them to be so familiar, Wu Wei always felt in his heart that Daoist Liu Yue would be an unfathomable old man with a serious expression. I didn't expect to look so young, and I look very approachable.

I don't know why, he can actually feel a trace of grandpa's breath from Daoist Liuyue's body.
