The Exorcist

"Azhan." Wan Li called him.

Ruan Zhan came back to his senses and felt that he was a little ridiculous. He didn't think about these things for many years, and he even wanted to forgive because of Xiaoxia. But I don’t know what’s going on lately, I keep thinking about the past. Is it because he is about to face his third crisis? Maybe this is why when a person is about to die, his words are kind, and when a bird is about to die, its song is sad!

"I'm leaving." He stood up.

"Where to go?" Wan Li asked, feeling guilty and keenly feeling the pain and sadness in Ruan Zhan's eyes. It's his fault. He didn't mention the mother or the abnormal child. It's not like he didn't know about Ruan Zhan's unbearable past. Ruan Zhan told him about it the only time he was drunk, and he never mentioned it after that. That was his internal injury!

"Go and do some work. Can you solve the problem by sitting here? You have work to do, too."

"I knew you wouldn't let me take it easy." Wan Li responded, seeing Ruan Zhan return to normal. He is like this, burying everything deeply in his heart. If he occasionally loses his temper in front of his closest friends, he will immediately cover it up. Now that Ruan Zhan had avoided this topic, he didn't say much, just discussed it and then split up.

Ruan Zhan's best defense method is simple to say, but it is actually harassment and counter-harassment.

These two demon boys have deep magical powers and are reluctant to let go of the prosperity of the city, so they will not run away even if they know they are in trouble. But this saves them the trouble. They don't need to be careful about this. They just have to wait for Bao Datong to come back and confirm what happened at the Xitou store before they can prepare for the final blow. Before that, they will continue to harass the pair of demon boys so that they have no energy to harm others. Moreover, as long as the surface is calm, the city's police force will not continue to be so tightly distributed, and it will be much easier for them to do things in the future. .

Ruan Zhan took full responsibility for the harassment of the demon boy. But you don't need to think about it to know that the pair of demon boys will not just stay still, and new troubles will definitely arise. They are not afraid of counterattack. As long as Wan Li and Xiao Xia stay in the bar, Ruan Zhan can completely protect himself. What they were afraid of was that the pair of demon boys would harm other people. Therefore, Ruan Zhan came up with the idea of ​​using information to spread.

The case of missing children has caused panic among all citizens. Although the children have been found, facing a bunch of children who are like little vegetatives, the case cannot be considered successful in any case, so the public outcry has not subsided. So they took this opportunity to spread false news on the Internet, saying that the underworld will accept boys and girls, and the children will be unlucky. However, there is a folk solution, which is to hang a small bronze mirror above the door and smear a little chicken blood on the mirror. , if you can post a charm online on the back of the mirror, and set off some firecrackers every night, it will be foolproof.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Ruan Zhan and Wan Li asked Ni Yang for advice on hacking methods to prevent IP address tracking, and even went to a remote Internet cafe to post this message. In less than a day, the news was spread and obtained through the Internet. People spread the news by word of mouth, and almost everyone in the city knew about it. Suddenly, small mirrors, chicken blood, firecrackers and other items were in short supply, and the downloading of charms posted online also caused network congestion.

"Fortunately, this cracking method only requires smearing a little chicken blood on the mirror, otherwise we don't know how many chickens would be slaughtered unplanned." During dinner that night, Wan Li sighed, "What a three-man city tiger. Millions of people in the city believe what they made up."

"This may be a mentality of preferring to believe something has happened rather than believe nothing." Xiaoxia finally regained her energy after sleeping for a day, and sat down to eat with the two men. "This is not very troublesome, and it is not difficult to do, as long as If one person does it, the others are afraid that something bad will happen to them, so can they not follow suit? So in the end everyone does it, which is also a herd mentality. You have to know that society is based on the family. The most important thing in a family is the child. Who wants something to happen to their child? Even if they don’t have one at home, there will be one at the homes of relatives and friends. Of course, the news will spread quickly. Besides, even if the child is a little older, it is possible. Being 'acquired', it's always right to be careful. Don't be afraid of a little trouble to keep your children safe, that's what adults would think."

"Yes, at least those who sell mirrors, butcher chickens, and sell firecrackers have made a fortune, which can be considered prosperous-" Wan Li was talking when a deafening sound of firecrackers came from outside the door, so he had to shut up.

The area around Yeguiren Bar is a commercial district. The shops on the ground floor are all storefronts facing the street. The upper floors are other shops, supermarkets, and some hotels and office buildings. Logically speaking, no one would set off firecrackers, but it was dark. After coming down, the sound kept ringing for a while, and I didn’t know who did it.

"Well, I know the power of the Internet. Not only is the correct news widely spread, but even false information can become true immediately, and so many people believe it." Wan Li shrugged, "But Ah Zhan, you are too If we can build it, return it to the underworld? And take in boys and girls? But is this useful?"

Ruan Zhan had been silent as usual before, but now when Wan Li asked, he slowly said, "When I talk about the underworld, I follow people's original imagination. As for the method of cracking it, it is indeed a folk method to ward off evil spirits. It's beneficial and harmless. Although this can't deal with the pair of demon boys, if everyone makes such a fuss, their yang energy will rise and their anger will disappear, and they will definitely be affected. Unreasonable people do not exist. They should not be here. If they are forced to stay, it will be natural. There will be disadvantages.”

"What if they are annoyed and insist on coming out to cause trouble and demonstrate against you?" Wan Li asked.

"I will stay on the street tonight and tomorrow night, and I have helpers. If they want to do harm to any family, those mirrors, chicken blood and spells will send out messages when broken, and my helpers will notify me, and I will If you can’t arrive immediately, at least you can catch up with them.”

"But, you have to be careful!" Xiaoxia was a little worried, "Maybe they will use this to set a trap for you."

"Don't worry, our Master Ruan's escape skills are superb." Wan Li pretended to be relaxed and comforted Xiao Xia, although he was also a little worried, "But speaking of which, who is your helper?"

"Don't worry!" Ruan Zhan pushed Wan Li back with just one sentence, and now Xiaoxia couldn't ask any more questions.

In fact, he just wanted Xiaoxia not to ask, because he couldn't explain the origin of these helpers to her. Those helpers were not humans, just paper birds. He used the bird tracking technique. Last night, he folded the paper birds so much that his fingers almost broke. He also used almost half a bottle of Bao Datong's special cinnabar.

"But don't use your time and space distortion technique, unless you are running for your life." Wan Li warned again.

Ruan Zhan nodded, "I'll drive out in the evening." The time and space distortion technique can only be used with skill. Unless under special circumstances, he will not use this technique casually. After all, Bao Datong will be back in two days at the latest. The war is imminent. He Of course we will preserve our strength.

So, everything went according to plan. Ruan Zhan couldn't find the little banshee, so he kept harassing the 'little boy'. He didn't really fight him head-on, he was just like a beast hiding in the dark, running out to chase prey he didn't want to eat at any time. But he hid it very well, and the boy couldn't catch his whereabouts, and he couldn't show his strength too much in front of Lu Yan, so he became furious.

The strong scorching air that permeated the entire city also made him extremely uncomfortable. He felt like a snake staying in a garden full of realgar grass. From his sister's mouth, he also knew that she tried to catch the child several times, but was thwarted by Ruan Zhan who arrived in time. Ruan Zhan did not conflict with her head-on, but just kept provoking her. He didn't know what Ruan Zhan was going to do, but he knew that apart from Ruan Zhan, they would never have a peaceful life. Moreover, he had been imprisoned for three hundred years and had developed powerful magic. He had never been so angry in the past five years, which also gave him He made plans to fight Ruan Zhan. It's just that he is no longer a child. He has the thoughts and scheming of an adult, so he simply told his sister to stop causing trouble, and thought about how to kill these damn mortals until their souls were gone, and what method to use. Only then can they die the most miserably.

Of course, Yue Xiaoxia wants to keep it. It's not how beautiful or charming she is, but because she is the first woman besides Lu Yan to love and care for a child so tenderly, making him feel like she is like a mother, and he likes that kind of love so much, so He wants her! Everything is good in this era, except that there are no child brides anymore, but it doesn't matter, he can do that.

Two days, two ordinary days in the eyes of ordinary people, but on both sides of the city, there were two groups of people carefully preparing to deal with each other. Two days later, Bao Datong came back from Xitou store.

When he came back, the bar was not open yet, and Ni Yang and Liu Tie had not come to work yet, but the other three people were there. Ruan Zhan always slept little, and he was already in high spirits after sleeping for a few hours in the morning. At the moment, he was sitting by the window, carefully drawing spells on several whittled peach wood swords, while Wan Li and Xiao Xia were busy because they wanted to help Ruan Zhan. Taking care of the bar and preparing for business.

"You're back?" Xiaoxia's bright smile was the first to catch his eye, "Is everything going well?"

"It's okay, your senior brother and I have such high Taoist skills, everything is easy to grasp!" He said pretending to be relaxed, but the big stone in his heart still made him breathless.

He glanced at Ruan Zhan and saw that the pen and cinnabar used by Ruan Zhan to draw talismans looked particularly familiar. Upon closer inspection, he saw that they were his own things. "Hey, you go through my things while I'm not around." He shouted softly. , but my heart is still very confused.

He could have come back yesterday, but he has been wasting his time until now. He has never been a person who escapes reality, but this incident really made it impossible for him to speak out calmly. Even now, while he was joking, he was still thinking in his heart whether it would be better to lie.

"In urgent matters, follow the authority." Ruan Zhan said these four simple words to him without raising his head.

"Well, yes, it's cool." Bao Datong nodded, "I asked why so many women like you. It turns out it's because you are cool enough. Well, um - I went upstairs first."

"Don't be busy. What's the result of this trip?" Wan Li stopped him and asked about his trip to Xitou Store.

"It's nothing." He glared at Wan Li, blaming him for being nosy. He had been thinking about what to do since he saw the body, but he still couldn't decide. Now that Wan Li asked him, it was difficult for him to answer.

"Did you go on a sightseeing trip to practice your dragon and tiger cultivation on the way, and didn't go to the Xitou store at all?" Seeing the always cheerful Bao Datong hesitating, Wan Li couldn't help but ask. He knew that although Bao Datong usually liked to laugh and make trouble, he was never sloppy at critical moments. Now that he was suddenly like this, he really couldn't make any other explanation.

What a good excuse! What a good excuse!

Just when Bao Datong wanted to admit it against his will, Xiaoxia interrupted, "No, Wan Li, what time is this? He won't delay things."

When Xiaoxia said this, Bao Datong's determination to lie was shaken again. Maybe it's just a coincidence? It is always bad not to tell Ruan Zhan. He came here just to help Ruan Zhan, and it was wrong to keep him in the dark. Besides, Ruan Zhan seemed to be cold, and maybe he didn't react too strongly.

However, let him think about it before speaking. Think about how not to hurt others, how to be more tactful, how to make him less shocked!

"I'll go upstairs to take a shower, change clothes, drink some water, and eat something. Today, it's as hot as a fire. I might have a heat stroke." Bao Datong delayed unskillfully. , he has always been good at talking, his father often said that he can coax the dead to come back to life and make lotuses bloom in winter, but why is he so stupid today? It turns out that telling one's friends bad news is so difficult, maybe he should tell Wan Li first. He's a psychiatrist and might be better equipped to deal with this.

Moreover - there is a high possibility that that incident was a coincidence!

"How about we find two more ladies to give you a massage?" Wan Li thought that Bao Datong had messed up the matter or made some embarrassment, so he couldn't help but mock him.

He raised his head and glanced at Bao Datong, and saw that he was glaring at him again. Although he was smiling sarcastically, his expression was a bit anxious. He couldn't help but feel a shiver in his heart, thinking that something inconvenient had happened, right?

"Oh, please stop sarcastic. It must be very tiring to go out in this weather, so let him rest for a while." Xiaoxia said considerately and pushed Bao Datong upstairs.

Bao Datong winked at Wan Li. Wan Li was a little surprised, but still followed him upstairs. While they were flirting with each other like this, Ruan Zhan didn't move at all, as if he didn't hear anything and was still concentrating on drawing the talisman on the sword.

As soon as he went upstairs, Bao Datong revealed his true colors, and his expression suddenly dropped, "What should I do? Do I want to tell him?"

Wan Li listened to his confused question and didn't know what was going on for a moment, but seeing Bao Datong's expression, it must be very difficult.

"Did something happen at the Xitou store?" He looked at Bao Datong seriously, "Please explain clearly, what exactly happened? Is it that Xiaoxia cannot hear it or Azhan cannot hear it."

"Azhan."

Wan Li was a little surprised, originally he thought it was Xiao Xia's. Because Ruan Zhan has experienced many storms, there is nothing he should not know.

"Actually, I'm not sure. Because it's not logical. Besides, there are many similarities between people!" Bao Datong rubbed his hands, "Am I trembling?"

Wan Li nodded, "Since you're not sure, why can't you tell A Zhan?"

"I'm afraid what if it's true. I mean what if, of course, this possibility is extremely small. But - if it's true, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it."

"His hard and cold temper won't affect him even if the sky falls." Wan Li felt that Bao Datong was a little strange. Ordinarily, he also knew Ruan Zhan, "Unless it has something to do with Xiaoxia. As long as he gets involved in anything, When it comes to Xiao Xia, he gets into trouble."

"It would be nice to have something to do with Xiaoxia."

"What on earth is going on? Tell me quickly. You're going to make me anxious!" Bao Datong's uneasiness gradually spread to Wan Li, making him impatient.

"Don't worry, listen to me." Bao Datong swallowed, "I was shocked at first. I mean - didn't I go to Xitou shop to check the body of the old man in Taoist uniform? That's right. Let’s see if he is related to the pair of demon boys - the result - when I went there, the body had not decomposed yet, so the features were very clear. He seemed - he seemed to be Azhan's - father!"

Before he finished speaking, a very low scream came from the door.
