Being seized by three bodies at once, the male officer was completely panicked and began to desperately yell, "Help, help!"
To be honest, I didn't want to intervene, but after all, a life was at stake. Besides, this male officer, although arrogant, was also quite responsible in his work. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come up to the mountain at this late hour.
Seeing the three bodies grabbing the male officer, I sensed trouble and quickly reached into my bag to grab three small swords. Then, I dashed over and inserted the swords into the back of the necks of the three bodies.
These swords were the same ones I had given to Wang Qian that day. Despite their small size, they were extremely effective. They were called necro-nailing swords, specifically designed for nailing bodies after they had transformed into corpses. Additionally, the swords also had a certain ability to ward off evil, preventing ghosts and monsters from getting too close.
The moment I nailed the three bodies, they all froze in place. However, it was a little too late; the male officer had already been bitten, and not just once. At this moment, his shoulders and neck were covered in blood.
Nevertheless, none of the injuries were life-threatening, other than the possibility of the poison spreading.
Seeing the three bodies immobilized, the male officer looked at me with a terrified expression and said, "Thank you, thank you," his voice choked with emotion. I silently looked at the male officer and smiled, saying, "Well, it looks like we're in the clear now, right? If everything's fine, I'll be leaving."
"It's fine, it's fine," the male officer nodded hastily.
I also nodded and said, "Okay, I'm tired too. Since we're not suspects, we'll leave."
After saying that, I didn't look at the male officer again, but walked directly to the female officer not far away. At this moment, the female officer was already dumbfounded, her eyes staring blankly.
When I reached the female officer, I suddenly stopped and whispered to her, "Take care of your companion. Although he's fine now, if the corpse poison isn't removed from his body, his life will still be in danger."
With that, I handed the female officer a piece of paper detailing the method to remove the corpse poison.
Hearing my voice, the female officer suddenly came to her senses and hurriedly took the paper. When she looked at me, her eyes were full of confusion. At the same time, she pouted slightly, as if wanting to say something.
This female officer indeed had a delicate and exquisite face. If she could take off her police uniform and put on nicer clothes, she would probably be even more attractive.
Seeing the female officer looking like she had something to say but was hesitant, I gave her a flirtatious look, then turned and walked away. Unexpectedly, the female officer shouted behind me, "Weirdo, what's your name?"
I turned around and saw the female officer still pouting and looking at me, as if she had something else to say.
I pretended to be curious and said, "What's wrong, officer? Why do you ask for my name, are you interested in me? My name is Duan Mu, do you want my phone number?"
"Yes," unexpectedly, the female officer answered without hesitation.
"Huh?" This answer almost made me break into a cold sweat. I quickly straightened out my clothes and said, "Uh, you are too direct, not fun at all."
With that, I recited my phone number to her, then looked at the female officer with a puzzled expression, feeling a mixture of emotions.
On the way, Pang Dun looked at me with a look of unwillingness and said, "Duan Mu, I just don't understand. How come good-looking girls always like to be with you even when you look like this?"
Pang Dun was jealous. I smiled and said, "Yeah, with me looking so ugly, not as good as you, a big fat pig, why don't they like you?"
"Duanmu, what the hell are you saying?" Pang Dun glared at me fiercely.
As we walked and talked, Pang Dun and I returned to the small town. At this point, the two of us stopped and turned to look at the village not far away, shaking our heads involuntarily.
"Duanmu, now you should tell me who this Nie Wei you're looking for really is," Pang Dun asked curiously. Seeing Pang Dun's curiosity, I had to briefly tell him about Long Lanxiang's situation.
After hearing it, Pang Dun was also furious: "This Nie Wei is really malicious, I never thought there would be such a person in the world."
"Yeah," I shook my head and said, "I don't care about what kind of person he is. I'm worried about what he's done, which could make my situation irreversible. In short, Nie Wei must be found, the foul Yin formation must be removed, and Long Lanxiang as well as the water ghost in the river must be released."
"But," Pang Dun hesitated, "where should we go to find him?"
After some thought, I suddenly said, "Let's go back to the school and find Wang Qian."
Before long, we arrived at the school gate. By now, it was very late, close to midnight. It seemed that we could only wait for tomorrow to find Wang Qian. With that in mind, I headed towards the school gate.
However, at that moment, a car suddenly stopped behind me, and almost at the same time, a voice came from the car. Initially, I didn't pay much attention, but there was a name that made me sensitive.
"Uncle, thank you so much this time for coming to help me take Wang Qian home despite being so busy," a young voice said, sounding very familiar.
Then an older man's voice came, "It's no problem, that girl Wang Qian is good, she'll be fine, keep it up."
After a brief conversation, the car drove away.
Wang Qian in trouble? Hearing this, my heart sank, and I quickly turned around to see a person standing on the street. That person turned out to be Zhu Jie, the son of Zhu Gui who drowned in the river. As Zhu Jie was on the basketball team, he not only looked handsome but also was very tall and strong.
At that moment, Zhu Jie also turned around and walked towards the school gate, but strangely, it was as if he couldn't see me, and he walked right past me. Moreover, as he walked, he covered his neck and looked very uncomfortable.
"Hmm?" I couldn't help but furrow my brow. "Something's not right."
Pang Dun glanced at me and asked, "What's wrong? What's not right?"
I kept my eyes on Zhu Jie's neck and said softly to Pang Dun, "Take a careful look, there are claw marks on Zhu Jie's neck."
I hadn't noticed at first, but seeing Zhu Jie constantly covering his neck and looking uncomfortable as if not even seeing me, I looked closely at his neck.
After saying that, I had already grasped the antique coin, covered my eyes, and began chanting, "The supreme underworld heavenly eye opens, let there be clarity between the yin and yang realms. Ghosts, monsters, and goblins have nowhere to hide, all demons and spirits manifest."
With the chant done, I looked at Zhu Jie and couldn't help but be shocked. I saw a man around forty years old clutching Zhu Jie's neck. This person embraced Zhu Jie from behind, with his legs wrapped around Zhu Jie's waist.
This scene made me take a small step back, and I said in a low voice, "This guy has actually encountered a ghost, I don't know where he provoked it, and this ghost seems to hold a grudge."
"No way," Pang Dun's face was full of astonishment.
At that moment, I thought of Zhu Jie's conversation with the older man just now, and I felt uneasy again, "This is bad, could Wang Qian be in trouble too? According to what Zhu Jie just said, he was probably with Wang Qian earlier. I can't be separated from Wang Qian right now, and I still need him to help me find Nie Wei."
"Go," I looked at Pang Dun and said, "Go check in with Zhu Jie for me."
Pang Dun looked at me and asked, "Why don't you go?"
I shook my head, "I've had some issues with this guy, so go quickly, don't waste time."
Pang Dun nodded, then went towards Zhu Jie, while I found a place to hide.
"Zhu Jie," Pang Dun called Zhu Jie's name, Zhu Jie stopped and Pang Dun said, "You seem pleased with yourself, it looks like you've won over Captain Wang? Just got back from a date."
"Sheng Jie Wei?" Zhu Jie looked puzzled, "How did you know?"
Sheng Jie Wei is Pang Dun's name. Hearing this, Pang Dun chuckled and said, "Of course I heard. So, is it true or not?"
"No," Zhu Jie decisively shook his head, "I didn't date Wang Qian, I just escorted her home. Her dad got into trouble, got hurt, seems to be someone named Nie Wei."
"Nie Wei?" My heart tightened suddenly. How did Nie Wei find Wang Qian's father?
Not good.
Could it be? Is it because Wang Qian gave me the address of Nie Wei's ancient tomb hideout?
