I pulled off the blanket
covering
Gao Erhu’s wife to check if her heart was still beating. Unexpectedly, the image of her two big breasts
greeted
my eyes!
I
hastily moved
the blanket back, blushing. “Sorry,
I didn’t mean to see that
.”
Gao Erhu shook his head. “
That doesn’t matter right now
! Master, saving her is more important!”
I tried to press my ear
against
Mrs. Gao’s chest
and
heard her heartbeat. From the way her chest was heaving up and down,
she seemed to be
sleeping!
However, when I put my finger under her nose, I couldn’t
feel her breathing at all
.
I had a headache
. I never encountered anything as mysterious as this. All I could rely on now was the Sirius Whip.
I waited
for quite a long time, but Li Mazi and
Baldy
still didn’t
return. I called Li Mazi
, but h
e didn’t pick up the call.
I
realized that something had gone awry and instantly r
ushed outside. Gao Erhu hesitated for a while but
eventually
decided to stay with his wife.
I ran
straight
to the car. When I opened the door, I saw the Sirius Whip and the other
items
inside.
After confirming that everything was fine, I
exhaled in relief.
However,
Li Mazi and
Baldy
were nowhere to be seen.
The spirit must have bewitched them.
I was lucky that Gao Erhu’s house was in
a small
village
and
that there was only one way out.
I hurriedly
grabbed
the Sirius Whip and a few spirit talismans.
Moving as fast as possible
, I dashed
down the road and
found them at the village entrance.
They were moving like wooden marionettes, slowly advancing. I ran
in f
ront of them
and
scream
ed
their names
, yet t
hey didn’t react.
I
readied
the Sirius Whip,
preparing
to wake them up.
But after thinking about it carefully,
I decided to follow them to see if I could get any clues. I expected to see them
head
somewhere unsafe, but a
fter a long walk, the two of them returned to
Baldy
’s hotel
.
Anyway,
this
proved that
Baldy
’s intuition was correct.
This was done by
the same spirit that had wreaked havoc
in his hotel before!
Since the two
ignored my existence entirely, I didn’t need to hide
and
just
followed
behind them. Unexpectedly, as soon
as Li Mazi and Baldy
entered the hotel lobby, the
y
turned around in unison. Their eyes had turned blood-red
and
their faces angry.
Instinctively, I backed off
.
“Who are you?”
“Kid, don’t put your nose in my business! O
therwise,
this General will kill you!” Li Mazi and
Baldy
opened their mouths, talking at the same time.
Not only did they speak in unison, but their voices were also the same
. They acted like a speaker for whoever
was controlling them
.
I suddenly had a
startling thought.
Is this a pair of twin spirits?
While I was still in a daze, the two approached me, reaching their hands
forward
. I
struggled
, but
Li Mazi and Baldy
seemed to be possessed by
a powerful, sinister being
. They lifted me with one hand and hurled me away
, sending me flying a few meters before hitting the ground
.
A
mouthful of blood spewed from my mouth
;
I felt helpless.
I
couldn’t match the spirit’s strength at all
,
even though it was holding back. A small push
was enough to make
me cough blood
. There was no way I could fight it.
When I pulled myself together and lifted my head to check Li Mazi and
Baldy
, they were gone,
and
I heard their footsteps upstairs.
“Not good!”
I cursed under my breath as I remembered the thick Yin energy
on
the sixth floor this morning. Immediately, I sped up after them.
When I passed the kitchen, I craned my neck
into the room
to see the hole.
The kitchen was pit-black
, and a
lthough I couldn’t see anything, I still heard the water gurgling from the deep hole. I knew it was because the
spirit
had left. Without the freezing Yin energy, the frozen soil was melting.
Luckily, they weren’t moving
too
quickly,
and I
caught up
to
them
on
the third floor. I didn’t dare
waste any time
, directly lashing the Sirius Whip
at
them.
T
hey paused for a
moment
. Then,
w
ithout turning their heads to
even look at
me, they continued to climb the stairs.
“
Impossible
…”
Th
is
spirit
was too strong
, beyond any estimations I’d made
.
However
,
I didn’t give up
. I read the
Big
Dipper Sirius
Spell and used
the Heavenly Dipper Step
to
lash
the whip
at
them one more time.
Li Mazi and Baldy
screeched
, and a
moment later, they
gathered their senses
, looking at me with a puzzled face.
“You two were bewitched by the
spirit
!
Don’t waste time. Let’s go!
” I was worried
and screamed this sentence before I ran
downstairs.
Li Mazi and
Baldy
followed close behind me. While descending, I felt
very anxious
. This
spirit
was really intimidating. Although the Sirius Whip expelled
it out
of Li Mazi and
Baldy
’s bodies,
the spirit
didn’t
run away.
But if it neither
attacked
nor
ran
, what
was its goal
?
Soon, we
arrived on
the first floor
and
saw a white shadow
at a corner
.
From the shadow’s shape, I recognized that it was a man wearing heavy armor, his hair worn in a high bun.
I guessed he was from the Han Dynasty.
Even though I was
a few meters away, I
could feel
the formidable murderous energy
emanating from
hi
s body.
This murderous energy had never appeared before. It
seemed that
my
actions
had provoked him. I told Li Mazi and
Baldy
to back
away
.
I brought my palms together
and bowed
to the white shadow,
speaking
to him in an ancient
style,
“Our hero over there, could you tell us what your name is? Why
have you
troubled two innocent men?”
Since
he had such a powerful aura, he must ha
ve
been a famous figure when he was alive
, a
nd
these types of people always worried
about losing face. That
was
why I decided to
speak
like an ancient Chinese person would
.
“Bullshit! Since when have I troubled innocent people? You
’re the one who’s
troubl
ing
me. Who are you
anyway
?” The white shadow fumed. He didn’t answer my question about his identity.
I had to
ask
for his name again.
Unexpectedly,
he got even more suspicious
. He angrily rolled his eyes at me, speaking through gritted teeth. “You don’t deserve to know my name!
Spit
it out,
have
you been sent by the enemy? Are you a spy?”
I was speechless
and felt
that the man
was paranoid
.
I hurried
to shake
my head.
However, he was still angry. He
reached
his hand toward me
.
Seeing the big hand
approach me
, I
was forced
to take out a talisman and stick it on him. The spirit exuded black smoke. He frowned, shouting coldly, “
You dare
attack me! You’re an enemy spy! I’m going to kill you!”
It turned out that
he
was only testing me earlier
, but now, he did
really want
to kill me.
He wasn’t afraid of my spirit talismans. Or, to be exact, my spirit
talisman wasn’t strong enough to
hurt him.
In just a blink of an eye, his big hand almost reached my throat. I
t was too late to dodge now
. If he got me, my throat would be
crushed
! I was
so
scared that my brain went blank.
Fortunately
, Li Mazi and
Baldy
didn’t run away
and
moved
to hold the spirit’s arms. I seized the chance and bit my tongue, spitting the blood on the talisman
, which I then smashed
on the spirit’s forehead.
The forehead was where the
spirit’s
Yin
energy was gathered, and it was one of its weak points
. After my sudden attack, the other party slowed down.
“
This is a good opportunity
! Little
B
rother Zhang, kill him!” Li Mazi
said happily
.
I was speechless
.
I then pulled
Baldy and ran
away. Li Mazi was bewildered. It took him a moment to
return to his senses
and run after us.
Before we could leave the hotel, a gust of wind swept over us. Instinctively, I closed my eyes. When I opened them again, I saw the
spirit
standing in our way.
“Damn!
We have to take the risk and fight
!”
The Sirius Whip was useless in this case, and I had
already
used all of my spirit talismans
in the desperate attack just now
.
W
e
no longer
had a chance to run away. I shouted,
raising
my fists
and
attacking in any way I could
.
My punch that
carried almost my full
strength hit hi
s
throat.
Despite this, the spirit didn't react, seemingly not feeling the pain.
He lifted his leg,
sending a hard kick
at my stomach. It felt like a truck had just
hit
me at max speed
, and
I was sent
flying through
the air. When I landed, my arm touched the ground firs
t
, getting
dislocated.
“Argh!” I couldn’t
help but scream
.
Li Mazi saw
that I was
hur
t. H
e gritted his teeth
and
dashed
forward. He received the same treatment
and was sent
flying backward.
Baldy
was scared. He hurried to
take out
a pistol, aiming at the spirit. Without thinking much, he pulled the trigger.
Although the fact that a
gangster had a gun didn
’t shock me
, his
actions surely did
!
The bullet went through the
spirit
’s body.
The spirit
had a look of disbelief
as
he checked
his
‘
wound.
’
Then, he pointed at the pistol in
Baldy’s
hand, asking suspiciously, “What’s that hidden weapon in your hand? It’s
quite
powerful!”
Li Mazi muttered in my ear
,
“Little
B
rother Zhang,
I’m certain that someone will die today
. How about we
seize this chance and run away while
that spirit
is focused
on that lad?”
I was bewildered. Thinking about Yin Xinyue waiting for me at home and this invincible
spirit
, I hesitated.
Before I could make a choice,
Li Mazi suddenly screamed
excitedly
, “He’s gone! Haha, we don’t need to die!”
When I heard him, I turned around. The
spirit
was really gone.
Baldy
held his pistol
and sat on the ground,
his forehead covered in sweat.
“Was he scared away by the gun?” Li Mazi asked.
“Impossible. He
wasn’t scared earlier
, and the pistol isn’t
very
strong. It can only
injure
a
physical
body. It can’t hurt
spirits
.”
“Perhaps he
had
something more important to do?”
Baldy
wiped his sweat. He hadn’t pulled himself together yet
when he shouted,
“
Something important like
going to Gao Erhu’s!”
“
Damn, l
et’s go! Gao Erhu’s in danger!”
After
Baldy’s reminder
, I
recalled that I
had left Gao Erhu and his wife alone in their house to follow these two. The
spirit
had disappeared
and had
possibly go
ne
to
Gao Erhu’s
house!
I
attempted
to use my
hand
to support myself
, but
a sharp pain
shot through my arm, which made me scream
. I then remembered that my arm was
dislocated
.
“Do you know how to
pop
the joint back in?” I looked at Li Mazi, gritting my teeth.
A
dislocated
joint wasn’t
too worrying
. People who knew
how to fix it
just needed to pull and straighten the bones to reconnect the joint. However, it was also easy to misalign the bones. Li Mazi observed my arm then shook his head.
“Let me do it!”
After
catching his breath
,
Baldy
came and directly grabbed my arm. He asked Li Mazi to press on my shoulder blade. He then
gave a quick pull,
and my
joint was popped back in
.
It
occurred
to me that it was normal
for
mafia members to get hurt or have a dislocated shoulder like this. Perhaps
Baldy
was used to fixing joints
.
