Chapter 6 The Lost City Chapter 17 Contact
Chapter XVII. Contact
He sat cross-legged on the toilet lid according to Ruan Zhan's procedure, put the bloodwood sword in his hand, took out the brown paper envelope from his arms, took out one of the paper birds and a water contemplation charm, took a deep breath, and calmed his mind.
may be more nervous, the paper bird will fall off on the top of his head, tossing for a long time, in order to stay firmly on the top of his head, which makes him breathe a sigh of relief, but it is just a piece of paper, but it makes him feel as heavy as a thousand pounds, his neck has been stalked, and the sweat has come down.
"I'm not to blame for this, I'm not used to the magic sticks." He muttered a word of self-comfort and lit the spell with a lighter. He thought it would burn normally, but as soon as he saw the fire, the piece of paper flew out of his hand with a 'soaring' sound, and it was stuck in the air and burned for several seconds, completely beyond the normal physical phenomenon. And because of the suddenness of the incident, he almost fell off the toilet.
He had been worried that the paper bird that had been placed on top of his head would fall again, but when he stumbled, he saw that there was no trace of the paper bird on the ground, and when he looked up, he really hovered above his head like a real bird.
He knew that he could speak at this time, so he hurriedly sat down and told him about the night he had just come, "I judge the real ghosts and fake ghosts based on the situation of the Bloodwood Sword, and when those three fools came, the Bloodwood Sword was motionless, it must be fake." Also, after all, I only came, and I didn't inquire much, so I told you everything, you have to tell me the situation on your side, and how long you can hold on. Complete. No, no, no, no, -- why don't we get a walkie-talkie, or just use a mobile phone? This time it's really over. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a heat above his head, and the paper bird had turned into a small flame, burning extremely quickly in mid-air, and then falling in an instant. Wan Li was startled, and hurriedly jumped away, so as to avoid the top of his head being burned, so angry that he almost scolded Ruan Zhan, blaming him for not reminding himself. However, before he could speak, he suddenly felt that someone was calling him in his mind, and he immediately calmed down and listened to Ruan Zhan reply to him.
It was two minutes before he came out of the public restroom and went back to his room. Although it was only the middle of the night, he was very sleepy, but he couldn't sleep.
Ruan Zhan told him: Half of the twelve people are dead, and he and Xiao Xia can hold out in the new town for a while, but the situation outside must also be investigated quickly, because the resentment in the town is too deep, and ordinary people who stay in it for too long will suffer from it, and he himself has suffered a little bit of injury and needs a little time to recover. Also, Xiao Xia had encountered some strange things in the largest inn in the town, related to porcelain, and ghosts crying hot, given that the address of the new town was originally a kiln from the outside, so it is best to start in this regard, and it is best to stay in that inn.
As for the question of why he didn't use the contact of scientific and technological supplies, Ruan Zhan didn't pay attention to it at all. However, he understands that it is because these modern communication devices will have no signal and will be shielded by invisible magnetic fields. The reason why he asked this was because boring questions would ease the tension, and now Ruan Zhan was fighting alone with Xiao Xia and the six survivors who were more than Xiao Xia, and the more relaxed his mentality, the better. Although Ruan Zhan has always been a calm and composed person, Xiao Xia is by his side, and he will inevitably have mood swings.
That dead girl is now Ruan Zhan's lifeline!
According to the meaning of Ruan Zhan's words, it probably means that the twelve people trapped are more or less related to the past incident that caused the resentful spirit, even if they are younger, they may be implicated because of someone in the family, so the relationship between these people is also an important clue, what are they involved in?
As for the reinforcements who rescued Wan Li twice tonight, Ruan Zhan thought that he must have something to do with the matter they wanted to investigate, because the souls were more spiritual, and they would know that he was here to investigate the matter, and they could also judge that he was well-intentioned, so he might have to avenge them.
Now that they think about it, they have three uncertain clues - the first is the matter of the kiln, which he intends to investigate tomorrow in the name of a porcelain lover; Second, the soul that helped him tonight, it stands to reason that if he really has a grievance to sue, he should find him again, so he decided to wander the streets in the middle of the night tomorrow to see if he could find it; Third, it is more difficult to investigate the relationship between these twelve people, although they seem to be real people, but the relationship between people is the most complicated, and it is not easy for outsiders to understand, so they have to start from their origins and what work they have done together.
Also, he had to beware of Sima Nan sending people to attack him again. Although Sima Nan would not do anything with a small role like him, as long as he sent that beautiful woman in red, he might not be able to beat him, so he decided to use the invisibility charm appropriately, and be careful not to be followed by Feihe, and the most important thing is to create a situation so that Sima Nan can't easily move him. He now finally fully understood what Ruan Zhan often said - the enemy is strong and I am weak, and we can only win with wisdom and courage.
In this case, if you are reckless, it is tantamount to the behavior of idiots.
Wanli lay in bed all night planning for tomorrow, and slept for a short time at dawn, and then immediately moved to the big inn in town. The owner of this small inn didn't even ask him for room money, and said beautiful things, such as failing to protect the safety of the guests, and letting the thieves harass the guests, but Wan Li knew in his heart that he must have taken the money of the thugs, but he didn't expose it.
He walked on the street so generously, and did not care how much curiosity and shock his nose and face were swollen, as well as the knife wounds exposed outside his clothes, so he inquired about the situation of porcelain, and in less than a morning the whole town knew that there was a reporter from other provinces who wanted to make a special report on the hometown of porcelain, and he was very enthusiastic, and many small workshop-style porcelain shops wanted to take the initiative to find him to introduce the situation of porcelain in this town, hoping to mention it a little in his news report. This will help your business a lot.
He had already moved to the largest inn in town early in the morning, and it happened that the house next door to Xiao Xia was still empty, so he moved in. And after all the tossing and turning in the town in the morning, by the afternoon he had already achieved the value he expected for the result.
He has become a celebrity, and countless people are staring at him every day, and Sima Nan can no longer easily send thugs; He wanted to inquire about the kiln, and now there was a group of people who took the initiative to provide clues, although not directly, but he could ask side by side, and he could do it unconsciously; He wanted to know about the people trapped in the new town, and that could also lead to some clues through fake interviews.
Assuming that Ruan Zhan's speculation is correct, then Sima Nan and the upper-level figures of Hongqing Town have no collusion, or even antagonistic relationship, because if he wants to use the resentful spirits, he must satisfy the desire of the resentful spirits to take revenge, and if the things that produced so many resentful spirits were concealed by these town leaders back then, then they must be the main targets of revenge, which can be seen from the fact that most of the people trapped in the new town are officials. In this way, they definitely don't want the spirit to be released!
Therefore, although he has to do a lot of things in secret, Sima Nan is even more disgraceful than him. Moreover, if someone wanted to check his identity as a journalist, he would not find out anything for the time being, because although he was a fake journalist and his press card was not real, he did have the title of a special correspondent, which was temporarily installed through a friendship. If someone wanted to call the newspaper, his powerful friend would help him out for a while.
He couldn't help but smile at the thought of this, and the initiative in the morning really gave him the initiative. Now Sima Nan didn't dare to deal with him blatantly, and he could investigate the matter with peace of mind. If Sima Nan sent a fierce ghost at night, he could also use the invisibility charm to implement the cunning rabbit three caves to ensure that Sima Nan would not find him easily.
Now his biggest problem is to sort out the ins and outs of the matter as quickly as possible, provide clues for Ruan Zhan and Xiao Xia as soon as possible, and in addition to muddy the water in this town, and find a person named Mr. Long.
He gave the town a good name and personally chose the site for the new town. He is said to be a learned hermit, but few people have seen him in person, and few people know where he lived, which made Wanli very interested.
Who is he? Does it have anything to do with this?
He didn't have time to think about it at the moment, for throughout the afternoon and even the whole evening, there had been a steady stream of visitors to the inn looking for him, and he had begun to gather a great deal of information, and then sifted through the most useful information among them.
"These two boys!" Sima Nan stood in front of the window with a gloomy face.
He was still living in a luxurious suite in that five-star hotel, and Hong Haohao was sitting on the sofa behind him, feeling that he was extremely unhappy, so he didn't dare to interject.
She had just reported to Sima Nan about the situation in Hongqing Town, and the plan she had implemented for Wan Li was a complete failure - the Bloodwood Sword and the things left behind had not been stolen, had not really hurt Wan Li, and had been blocked by Wan Li from continuing to do so. Although the strategy was thought up by Sima Nan, after all, she did it herself, and she was afraid that she would be angry.
"Except for the first fight, I never underestimated them, or even overestimated them every time, but their potential seems to be limitless, and they will always be a little more powerful than I thought." Sima Nan continued, "Okay, you say, am I old? ”
Since he asked, Hong Hao didn't dare not say anything, and hesitated for a long time before saying, "Didn't you say that it's fun to fight with this kind of person?" So-isn't it just right to play with you? She finished and peeked at his reaction, but he still stood with his back to her, not moving.
"You're right." Sima Nan's tone was straight, and he couldn't hear the joy and anger, "But there is a saying that raising tigers is a problem, and the boy surnamed Ruan is too powerful to be stronger, and the kid surnamed Wan can be adjusted, and I am the one who dies." Hehe, think about how I could die at their hands. ”
"No, you're not going to die. No one is stronger than you, and you will definitely beat these two boys. Hong Hao said hurriedly.
Her tone was very earnest, because without Sima Nan, she could not exist in this world, and she greedily loved the darkness and prosperity of this world. And she was afraid of this man, although he was the best lover when he was tender, but his heart was like a bottomless pit, which made people unable to see clearly, and sometimes it would flood with a fierce torrent, which was terrifying.
"Don't worry, I can't die, because I won't let Ruan Zhan be so strong that I can't settle and die in their hands? Hmph, I'm just saying, you really believe it! Sima Nan laughed arrogantly, and finally brought out a trace of emotion in his words, which made Hong Hao Hao also breathe a sigh of relief.
"Tomorrow I will go to Hongqing Town in person." Sima Nan made a decision.
Looking at the lights and traffic outside the window, he suddenly felt a little trance, is life so beautiful? He didn't know, he just wanted to know what it was like to have eternal life, so he had to get it. And even if he dies, only Ah Bai is qualified to take his life!
