Chapter 7 Chapter 21 Strange Disease
Chapter 21: A Strange Disease
Wanli and Xiao Xia looked at the scene in front of them, and they were afraid for a while.
It's really thrilling, they almost fell from a height of dozens of meters, and Xiao Xia's last spell has been used up! Look at their car again, parked against the edge of the overpass. The cement railing on this side has not yet been built, and only thick steel bars stand like weeds. If it weren't for the fact that Wanli's mind was in a hurry, and according to human instinct, he dodged the obstacle in front of him and then turned sharply, then they would have gone straight to heaven.
"Almost died." Xiao Xia let out a long breath.
"You're out of danger, my life is still in danger!" Wanli looked out of the window on his side, and couldn't see the bridge at all, only the ground dozens of meters down. In other words, if he wants to commit suicide, he only needs to open the door and lift his feet.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Xiao Xia leaned on the saddle and said weakly.
"I'm serious." Wan Li was serious, "I made the car like this, do you guess if Ah Zhan will kill me!" Maybe for the sake of my long-time friend, he will give me a whole corpse. β
The relaxation after the nervousness tasted exceptionally sweet, so when Wanli said this, Xiao Xia laughed, "I'll help you intercede, but now we'll finally drive his car to safety." β
"That's right, you have to see the car in life, and you have to see the wreckage in death, so it's easy to talk about pleading." Wanli sat up straight and went to start the car. But I don't know if the brakes were too sharp just now, and after tossing for a long time, the car was still dead.
"What to do? Call a trailer. Xiao Xia suggested.
"No way!" Wan Li immediately vetoed, "This bridge has not been completed yet, how can we explain that we ran on it and crashed into the car?" It's not just a matter of getting fined, it's also a problem with my driver's license. Don't worry, take your time, Ah Zhan's car has good performance, and he usually maintains it well, so he will definitely be able to run again! β
"Okay, you have the final say, aren't women and men liberated!" Xiao Xia snorted helplessly, not wanting to argue with him. The horrified memories just now made her a little confused, she kept looking left and right, but she couldn't calm down, and when she looked in the rearview mirror, a human face suddenly crashed into her eyes.
It's the little real doll who has been sitting in the back seat, because she and Wanli were so focused on dealing with all kinds of dangers just now, they almost forgot the existence of this little girl! At this moment, her little face was no longer that dull look, but showed a stiff smile, as if someone had pulled the muscles on her face upward.
Xiao Xia was startled, and as soon as she turned her head, she felt a tightness in her throat, and she immediately couldn't breathe.
"Ten thousand miles!" She only vaguely squeezed out the two words, and could no longer speak, and her hands were not able to rise for some reason, so she could only kick her legs in vain. She couldn't move, but she felt two thin arms strangling her neck with an irresistible force.
Wanli on the side was also startled when he saw this scene, and hurriedly grabbed the two little arms and pulled them out, trying to rescue Xiao Xia. But as soon as he grabbed it, he believed that this little girl was no longer the original one, because her strength greatly exceeded that of an adult man, and although she kept smiling on her face, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't rescue Xiao Xia!
Seeing that Xiao Xia was about to suffocate, he increased his strength to pull the two snake-like arms, but he didn't expect the little girl to suddenly shake hard! Her strength was so great that she only shook twice, and the whole body shook violently!
They're on the edge of an overpass, and they're going to have to fall like this!
In his anxiety, he couldn't think and judge, he just continued to save Xiao Xia with one hand, and started the car with the other, but no matter how hard he tried, no matter which side had no effect, seeing that Xiao Xia was about to lose his breath, the car also poked out of the edge of the bridge deck!
This will not work!
A voice roared in his heart, and the basic human reaction prompted him to let go of his hands, take the charm of unknown nature, and slap the little girl in the face.
There was a crisp 'pop' sound, accompanied by a faint puff of black smoke floating out of her body, and the little girl fell to the back seat with a grunt.
As soon as the pressure was relaxed, Wan Li didn't bother to ask Xiao Xia about the situation, opened the car door and pushed her out, and then jumped out of the car himself, dragging Xiao Xia and the unconscious little girl far away.
"Are you alright?" He stroked Natsu's back, who was coughing violently.
Xiao Xia shook her head and glanced at the little girl beside her. Seeing that he was going to kill his own child just now, he was lying on the ground with his eyes closed at this moment, his face was red and swollen on one side, and he was frowning thin eyebrows in a coma, so fragile that he seemed to be broken at a touch, and he was as fierce as two people just now. She knew that the little girl was under control, and she was suddenly very angry with the evil spirit.
"Don't be afraid of her, her evil spell has been solved, and I don't know what kind of spell Ah Zhan used to solve the evil spell." Wanli sighed lightly, not daring to look at the little girl's face.
He was a personable man who never hit a woman, no matter how much she deserved to be beaten. But a minute ago, he not only hit a woman, but he was also a little girl who couldn't be smaller, and he was hurt so badly, what a sin!
"Where are you going?" Xiao Xia saw Wanli walking towards the car, "It's better to call someone to tow it away, don't go, it's too dangerous." From her point of view, she can see that half of the wheels on the side of the driver are already in the air, and if Wanli insists on turning the car back, it is simply a fate!
"You can't find someone to tow it, the rest is fine, how can this little girl explain?" Wan Li said, "It's okay, I have good driving skills, and I can turn the car back." Rest assured, I'm not like Bao Datong, I never brag. Wanli said as easily as possible, and then sat back in the car without waiting for Xiao Xia to object.
That's a man! Obviously nervous to death, but he has to maintain a relaxed demeanor, knowing that he will die on the spot if he can't get it, but there are still some things that must be done!
He carefully steered the car, which was almost half-suspended in the air, and did everything he could to keep the weight close to the safe side, turning the car inward little by little, and after a century of time, before his heart was about to beat out, he finally saved the car, and did not change from a 'man' to a 'dead man'.
"Worried about me?" Wanli asked when he quickly drove away from the 'crime scene' with Xiao Xia.
"Nonsense, how can you ask such childish words! I hear the sound of a car. Seeing the quiet but safe streets in the early morning, Xiao Xia's nervousness could finally be vented, "What should this little girl do now?" β
"We found a small police station, and then I left her in front of the police station incognito, and we hid from a distance and watched, and when we saw that the police found her, we left. We can't show our faces about this, it's hard to explain. β
Xiao Xia nodded, "I understand, but we should show up now, otherwise a cleaner will see a high-end driverless car." β
It was already past seven o'clock in the morning when they returned to the night, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Bao Datong, who had come back one step ahead of them, sitting at the bar and drinking.
"Drink now? It's a little early! Wanli said.
Lately, he's been running to bars a lot, so he's left some groceries and clothes upstairs, and plans to wash up here today, and then go to work with Natsu.
"You have to take care of it, Mongolian doctor!" Bao Datong said without looking back.
"How was your side yesterday?" Xiao Xia was afraid that Wanli would quarrel with Bao Datong again, so he hurriedly diverted the topic.
"Nothing." Bao Datong still didn't look back, "There is nothing abnormal about this mother and son, they are open until ten o'clock, and then they close the store and sleep, and they don't even leak a single point of unusual atmosphere." β
"Maybe we guessed wrong, and they didn't have a problem." Xiao Xia said willingly.
"Xiao Xia, the wish is beautiful, but the truth is cruel." Wanli hugged Xiao Xia's shoulder, "I know you don't want to believe this, but if Lu Yan's mother and son had no problems, many things wouldn't have happened to us." And now they are too normal, which shows that we are not wrong. β
"Butβ"
"Have you gained anything?" Bao Datong interrupted Xiao Xia and asked.
"It's not just a harvest, it's a huge harvest!" Xiao Xia sat down next to Bao Datong and briefly said what happened a few hours ago, "I almost can't come back, I'm really scared when I think about it!" Unfortunately, I still haven't found the nest where the evil spirit hides the child. β
"But by your fight with the demons, we can further estimate her strength. You see, she has scruples about the Bloodwood Sword and the Broken Banner, but these two magic weapons can't hurt her. On the one hand, this shows that you have no mana, and you are not the master of the magic weapon, so you can't give full play to their greatest strength, but on the other hand, it also shows that the ability of the evil spirit should not be underestimated, and if you want to other than her, you have to think of other methods. Also, you saved a child, this is the most successful place, know that life is the most important thing! Bao Datong's tone was a little weak, and he seemed very tired.
"That makes sense." Wan Li didn't really praise Bao Datong, but Xiao Xia felt that there was something wrong with Bao Datong.
Since they came back, Bao Datong has not turned around, just facing the wine cabinet, and at this moment he is looking down at the wine glass, which is completely different from his usual radiant appearance. Xiao Xia thought that he was frustrated because he didn't find a clue, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry. You stared at their mother and son alone, as if you were playing chess, with one son and two sons, obviously taking advantage, what is there to worry about. Don't worry, when Ruan Zhan finds a clue, I will rely on you to show your power in the future. β
"Yes, I'm Master Bao." Bao Datong was still staring at the wine glass, "Let's go, I'm going to be late for work." He urged, but because this behavior was very contrary to his usual style, it attracted Xiao Xia's attention.
She tilted her head and leaned closer, and although Bao Datong dodged, she still saw that his face was pale and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Xia was taken aback, "Didn't you also have an accident last night?" β
With her call, Wan Li also discovered Bao Datong's abnormality.
"I didn't expect people with weak brains to get sick!" He patted Bao Datong on the shoulder, his movements were very light, full of comfort, who didn't expect Bao Datong to tremble. Wanli's expression darkened, "Something is wrong with you, what happened?" β
"I said it was okay!" Bao Datong was a little irritable, stood up and wanted to leave the encirclement of Xiao Xia and Wanli, but as soon as he stood up, his body shook and almost fell, and at the same time, an indescribable feeling hit his head. It wasn't pain, it was an indescribable sourness, as if the body had cracked out of the body with small lines from within.
"Be careful!" When he was about to fall, Xiao Xia hugged his waist, but he took him to a stumbling side.
"Hey, it's not a joke, you don't look like you're fine." Wanli held his shoulders and supported his weight, "Are you sick or have you been attacked by something and didn't notice it?" β
Bao Datong wanted to speak, but another wave of sour numbness hit again, making him can't help but snort, and he can't stand steadily.
Xiao Xia reached out and stroked his forehead, but was startled by the cold sweat soaked in the palm of her hand, which made her extremely nervous, she had never seen anyone sweat so much in the blink of an eye.
"You help him sit down for a while, and I'll call an ambulance."
"Don't." Bao Datong grabbed Xiao Xia's hand, "I won't go to the hospital." β
"At this time, don't play with the child's temper." Natsu tried to break off Bao Datong's fingers, but he just grabbed her wrist.
"You're going to hang like that!" Looking at his getting worse and worse face, Wan Li was also a little anxious, "If you want to die, you have to wait until you finish rectifying these evil spirits before you die!" β
"It's not - you don't understand, I'm not sick." Bao Datong gasped.
"So you were attacked last night?" Wan Li asked, "Say it and listen to it, there's nothing to be ashamed of, the evil spirits I encountered this time are so powerful." Even if it is Ah Zhan, I am afraid that he will suffer if he fights alone. β
"It's not." Bao Datong gritted his teeth and shook his head, "Okay, it seems that I can't solve it myself." Help me upstairs first, and I'll tell you - listen! β
He resolutely refused to go to the hospital, so Wanli had to carry him upstairs.
"You also know that this demon is so powerful, I don't have any shame in losing to her, and even letting her use it to stuff her teeth." Bao Datong seemed to feel a little better after going upstairs, "But, it really has nothing to do with that, because I felt something was wrong with my body before last night, and I'm sure it's not a physical disease." β
"So what makes you uncomfortable?" Xiao Xia asked anxiously, "It's not a physical disease, is it an evil spirit?" You said that it wasn't about Lu Yan's mother and son, so what could make you evil? β
Bao Datong smiled bitterly.
He wanted to take care of it himself, so he kept trying to calm the things in his body. He thought he could, but the discomfort suddenly became ferocious, making him understand that this time he had to rely on others.
"Before you come back, I checked the breath around me, and there is no invasion of external evils, which means that it is self-inflicted."
"What is self-destructive? What kind of strange disease is this? Xiao Xia asked.
"It's just that I accidentally did something, and as a result, I damaged my three souls and seven souls. Strangely, ever since my body started to feel wrong, I started to recall, but I still can't think of anything I shouldn't have done these days! β
It was the first time Xiao Xia and Wan Li had heard this kind of statement, and they looked at each other.
"What do I need to do to be cured?" Wanli was calmer, "You say, we will do it, no matter how difficult it is, we will definitely help you do it." β
"Finding out why I'm self-destructive can make up for it. But-" Bao Datong was halfway through his words, then got up to get his little wooden box, and then walked to Xiao Xia's room, and under the inexplicable gaze of Xiao Xia and Wan Li, he stripped off his shirt, drew several charms of different shapes on Yin Tang, the acupoints on his chest, the backs of his hands, and the soles of his feet, and finally lifted the sheets and sat on the bed, as if he was going to bed.
"Long story short, I probably won't be able to hold on." He grinned, revealing those two super Zhengtai, super cute tiger teeth, "I've been trying to fight since the morning, but the injuries are obviously worse than I thought. β
"What do you mean?" Xiao Xia Liushen said without a master, "Didn't you say that you want to die? β
"Not really." Bao Datong still looked calm, as if he was talking to others, "But it's almost like death, don't be afraid." He gasped, because of sweating, the charm melted a little, dripping like blood, "It depends on whether my friend is capable or not, and it also depends on whether Ah Zhan is as smart as you say!" β
"What do you mean?"
"Tell him I'm self-inflicted." When Bao Datong said this, it was already very laborious.
"Is that all right? I meanβhey, Bao Datong! β
In her exclamation, Bao Datong suddenly collapsed on the bed, as if a hill had suddenly collapsed.
"Bao Datong! Bao Datong! Xiao Xia was frightened, shouted Bao Datong's name, and shook his shoulders vigorously, trying to wake him up. In her mind, Bao Datong has always been over-energetic, and suddenly seeing him like this at this moment made her unable to accept it for a while.
Wanli stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Xia, "He's faint, so he can't wake up." He frowned, "He must have realized something, so he prepared in advance." Don't you see? He told us the only way to save him, drew a spell to protect his soul, and even chose a place to faint. He knows you're going to protect him, so he just faints in your room. Because there is Ruan Zhan's protective array here, and he has also made up for all kinds of loopholes that may be exploited by evil spirits, there is no safer place in the world than here. β
"So what do we do? Is it just waiting? Xiao Xia glanced at Bao Datong anxiously.
Whether active or passive, they fought the demon in the shape of the child many times, and although they fell behind each time, at least they could ensure that they were not harmed. But Bao Datong suddenly came to such a strange disease, and the situation suddenly became grim.
Now it's not a question of whether they will destroy the demon or not, but the situation of your life and death!
"Xiao Xia, don't panic, we must not mess with ourselves." Wan Li moved Bao Datong's body as he spoke, making him lie down more comfortably, "We have to wait for Ah Zhan to come back, he must have a way to relieve Bao Datong's self-destructive strange disease." β
