Chapter 129: Burial Mound, Astonishment
Chi Shuyan entered with a cold face, followed by Qi Zhenbai, Zhu Bocheng and Lu Chengfu.
They had found Lu Chengfu first, and unexpectedly saw the kid leisurely eating a chicken drumstick.
Hence, they weren’t worried about him.
At that moment, Qi Hao and Wang Xuewen were dying of despair because Jian Chongying was about to be killed. Who would have thought that things would take a sudden turn, and they and Chongying would be saved? Plus, it was by someone they were familiar with.
It wasn’t just Wang Xuewen whose eyes brimmed with excited tears. Qi Hao was even more moved when he saw his cousin and Brother Zhu. He burst into loud tears, like floodgates opening.
This time, he cried far more wretchedly. As he cried, he looked from time to time at the awe-inspiring and utterly cold face of his cousin. At that moment, he also felt incomparably affectionate. Trembling, he lunged forward in excitement and hugged Qi Zhenbai tightly, wailing and bawling. “Cousin! You’re finally here! You’re finally here to save me!?Sob…! It’s too scary! Si Yinghua is dead!”
Qi Zhenbai usually didn’t like people getting close to him, even the relatives whom he was close to. Seeing how his cousin cried so pitifully as he hugged him, he recalled Chi Shuyan’s words that their “souls would fly away and scatter.” Qi Zhenbai had been so scared back then that he had broken out in a cold sweat. For the first time in his life, he knew what fear was.
Now, seeing this kid standing in front of him still alive and crying, Qi Zhenbai couldn’t get angry, nor did he push him away. He let the kid hug him as long as he needed to, and his heart which had been in his throat finally settled down.
Wang Xuewen hugged Zhu Bocheng and cried even more wretchedly than Qi Hao as he howled, “Brother Zhu, I let you down! I let you down! I won’t burn whatever you give me anymore, Brother Zhu!?Boohoo… I was wrong!”
The two of them competed to see who could cry more wretchedly, and forgot about Jian Chongying on the side. Chi Shuyan pinched the space between her eyebrows and had Lu Chengfu help Jian Chongying up first.
Lu Chengfu immediately helped bring Jian Chongying over before the two ghost things in front of him could recover from their serious injuries.
Zhu Bocheng initially wanted to curse at these brats who were wailing in despair, but who would have thought that he would see two ugly ghosts as soon as he followed Sister Shuyan in, especially one whose head he recognized? Who else could it be but Si Yinghua?
Zhu Bocheng shuddered at Si Yinghua’s miserable condition. “Holy mother! What the hell is that?!” He hurriedly pulled back a few steps, patting Wang Xuewen on the head to tell him to stop crying and not disturb Sister Shuyan’s exorcism.
Mouth still oily, Lu Chengfu helped the deathly pale and unconscious Jian Chongying over. Wang Xuewen took a good look at him. Compared with their narrow escape from death, this guy was really carefree.
For a moment, Wang Xuewen wanted to pinch him hard.
What kind of f*cking luck was this?
Calming down after a moment, Qi Hao also noticed that damn Lu Chengfu. Seeing that this guy’s mouth was oily, how could he not know what was going on? Like Wang Xuewen, he too felt envy and hatred, but he resigned himself to the fact that Lu Chengfu was really lucky.
Why else would the talisman which he had casually thrown to this guy be the most powerful?
Lu Chengfu looked guilty. Eating chicken drumsticks was one thing, but he had never been a hindrance to them. He also wanted to use this talisman to help the others, but he really didn’t have the strength to run in the end and that ghost thing also stopped chasing him.
He could only secretly take out a drumstick from his bag and hide in some secluded corner to eat it; how was he to know that Wang Xuewen would still see him?
Chi Shuyan took in the faces of the boys and was relieved to see that, except for Jian Chongying, who was deathly pale, the rest of the boys were full of energy and had been able to hold on until now. She sighed in relief. Whatever the case, the tragedy in her past life had been changed.
But this wasn’t the time to ponder old matters. Seeing the two ghost things in front of her approach slowly, Chi Shuyan shouted for everyone to fall back. She then threw a dozen talismans at the two monsters in front of her.
The loud sounds they made were disproportionate to the might of a talisman, but the two ghost things in front of her wailed and staggered.
Chi Shuyan took out a few more Guiding Lightning Talismans and threw them out. Once the air was filled with thunderclaps, she immediately guided bolts of lightning as thick as her thumb to the monsters’ heads, shattering them one by one.
Miserable and eerie wails rose and fell, and when the heads exploded one after another, the two ghost things finally fell to the ground and couldn’t get up.
Qi Hao and Wang Xuewen, who were originally howling and crying, and even Lu Chengfu, were so shocked by the havoc wreaked on the ghost things in front of them that their eyes almost popped out of their sockets. They stared unblinkingly at the young girl whom Brother Zhu and Ninth Master Qi had brought with them in disbelief, gaping with even more reverence than Zhu Bocheng outside the tomb just now.
Zhu Bocheng also felt that what Sister Shuyan had done outside the tomb earlier just now paled in comparison to her methods this time.
It was too f*cking awesome!
The expression in Qi Zhenbai’s eyes grew deeper and deeper. Although his face was calm, his eyes never left the woman in front of him.
