Yin Yang Lantern Man

Chapter 145 The Talisman is not affected
Chen Ning'an didn't listen at all. He would not allow any uncertainty to arise.

But when he glanced and saw something hanging around the latter's neck, he was surprised.

"Where did you get the talisman on your neck?"

He grabbed the Qinwen talisman, which was put in a bottle and hung around his neck.

“This is a gift from a friend of mine.”

Qin Wen said this, with no false expression of fear on his face.

"Do you like it? If you like it, just take it. I'll give it to you."

There was nothing wrong with him just wanting to live, but Chen Ning'an narrowed his eyes. Who else in the world could draw talismans besides him?
Another thing is that this talisman was clearly drawn by him, and the material on it is clearly his blood.

"It was really given by your friend. Then, what is your friend's name? Does he have any characteristics?"

"It was really given to me by my friend. I remember it clearly. His name is..."

"Um, his name is..."

Qin Wen hesitated for a few times but the words got stuck at his lips.

"What's his name?"

He couldn't remember it no matter how hard he tried, but he was clearly very familiar with this talisman.

"No, how could I forget that he also said that this talisman could save lives at a critical moment."

The more Qin Wen spoke, the weaker his voice became and the uglier his expression became.

"How do I know that this talisman can save lives at the critical moment?"

"What is a talisman? Why do I suddenly know this word?"

He grabbed the railing tightly, and his face became paler. "It seems that I don't need to reform you."

Chen Ning waited until he calmed down before slowly speaking:
"I have a story here. Do you want to hear it?"

Without waiting for his answer, he continued, "There is a light realm in the South Cinema City, there is also a light realm in the City Hospital, and inside the Yadongpo Reservoir..."

As he spoke more, Qin Wen's face became more and more horrified.

When Chen Ning'an mentioned the heavy fog at the end, Qin Wen could no longer maintain his mentality.

"What! Fog?"

"They actually used this thing. Wait, isn't my current situation...

He tightly grasped the talisman on his chest, trying to take it out.

But his hands were shaking and he couldn't make any delicate operations. At this moment, a brand new talisman appeared before his eyes.

"Do you see anything different about this photo of mine?"

"You also have this talisman?"

Qin Wen was still in shock, but he soon came to his senses.

"You were my friend before the fog came?"

"That's understandable."

Chen Ningan forced a stiff smile: "You were the one who told me about the heavy fog, otherwise I wouldn't have been unaffected."

I understand, I understand everything, but why is Chen Ningan not affected?
Unless he did not have time to escape from Zhongcheng, combined with the story he had just heard, Qin Wen had to believe that everything he saw was fake.

"Damn it, no wonder my memory is confused."

He turned around and looked at Chen Ning'an again, and his mood was different from before.

"We are friends, but it's more of a relationship of interest. I will provide you with a life-saving talisman, and you will help me reveal news about Ye An and convey information to Ye An."

Qin Wen's face was no longer as nervous as before. He asked, "You could have just made up an identity. Why did you put your own interests first?"

"Would you believe it?"

Chen Ning'an's four words were mixed with sarcasm, which surprised Qin Wen.

He asked himself and realized that he really didn't believe it.

"So, the best bond between two people is interest."

He took out a talisman and threw it into the reservoir. It exploded instantly with a power no less than that of a handheld rocket.

How could a small piece of paper be so powerful? Qin Wen felt that the things on his chest and in his hands began to emit a deadly and dangerous aura.

Chen Ningan passed by him and said:
"Stay in Ye'an with this Brother Tao. I will contact you through him. The level of the existence that appeared over there will not be low. You'd better report it as soon as possible."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ning'an disappeared.

The rest of the words came from Brother Tao's mouth. He quickly covered his mouth with his eyes widened.

"Qin Wen, I, I'm in big trouble now."

"I know that without you telling me."

Qin Wen had a complicated expression on his face: "Let's just pretend that nothing happened today and go back to the headquarters first."

It frightened him to stay here any longer.

Especially after knowing that the fog had changed everything, he no longer trusted Ye An.

"Damn it, my last name is Qin. Do those bastards above really not care about blood relationship at all?"

He swallowed it all and then reported to Room 2 with the information.

On that day, many Ye'an people left Zhongcheng and went to various places to mobilize resources.

And Chen Ning'an became increasingly aware that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

People are reluctant to linger on the streets, and every street is deserted.

Many shops have closed and even those that are open are not doing very well.

The place where xx studied was also blocked, and it was suspected that a major case had occurred. Chen Ningan saw cars from the municipal hospital going in and leaving one after another.

What exactly were they trying to attract through the sacrifice?
Chen Ning'an would not be unprepared. He took the lead in going to the top of the city hospital to communicate with the Cold Corpse Realm, but the situation in the Cold Corpse Realm at this time was not optimistic.

The three lighting scenes have been completely integrated together, and there is a lonely building sitting in the South Cinema.

The sky was full of ropes, and deep water could be seen everywhere on the ground. Even Chen Ning'an felt the heat of the talisman just by looking at the sky.

His blood was being consumed, and the only good news might be that the Lord of the Frost Corpse Realm was still under his control and nothing had happened.

Even Chen Ning'an got two more bone fruits to replenish himself.

If some unexpected events occurred, with the help of the Lord of the Cold Corpse Realm, he could at least hide in the Light Realm and wait for the storm to subside.

Ye An appears more and more frequently.

Half a month later, Huang Yue and Lu Shang from the [Ghost] side told him that there would be a grand sacrifice in five days, and then the entire Zhongcheng would usher in a true era of equality.

Everyone can get what they want through sacrifice, there is no limit.

A day later, Xie Chi also told him the time. Five days later, [God] would come and judge all the guilty people.

Chen Ning'an passed their information to Ye An without any concealment or deletion. When Qin Wen found out, he immediately panicked and asked Chen Ning'an if he wanted to go to Maimu City together to take shelter.

If there is another heavy fog, he will ask himself who he is now?
"Escape? Can you avoid it for a while, but can you avoid it forever?"

Chen Ningan asked him: "After you have avoided for decades, when your life span is exhausted, will you regret why you didn't seize the opportunity?"

After hanging up the phone, Qin Wen was confused. He asked Brother Tao beside him:
"What does the exhaustion of living for decades have to do with the present?"

Why would he regret it? Not only did he not regret it, he was even happy about it.

Survived another crisis and hid well.

Thinking of this, he quickly sorted out the information and uploaded it to Room 2. At the same time, he asked for a vacation. He had already thought of the reason:

"I want to go to Mucheng to visit my relative named Qin."

This reason will basically not be rejected unless the other party wants to cause trouble for themselves.

However, Room 2 rejected his application.

"You are the only one who knows the news. This mission is very important and we need your help." Someone came out and told him personally: "We need key comrades like you. We have also submitted your information. Qin Wen, you may be promoted soon."

what?
But Qin Wen didn't want to be promoted, he just wanted to escape from Zhongcheng.

All of this was seen by Brother Tao who was standing next to him, and also by Chen Ning'an.

This is what mortals are like. They are so busy with work that they even need others' approval to take a rest.

Everyone is born free, but has to live within the rules and regulations of the world.

"I must become an immortal!"

He clenched his fists, determined not to become like Qin Wen in his life.

Why can the forces behind these two sides, [God] and [Ghost], get rewards after offering sacrifices? He wanted to study it and learn this magic.

By then, he will definitely be one step closer to becoming an immortal.

Just as the initial thought, it is a danger but also an opportunity. All dangers are the cornerstones of the road to immortality.

But in order to deal with these two mysterious forces, Chen Ning'an went to many shops and bought a lot of paper to ensure that everything would be safe.

One paper doll after another was placed in various places in Zhongcheng, and he had almost no rest.

Five days passed, neither fast nor slow. When the last minute came, Chen Ning'an took a short nap for half an hour and could no longer fall asleep.

it has started.

He understood when he heard the bells ringing throughout the bell city.

Why is Zhongcheng called Zhongcheng? It is famous for the ancient bell there. Legend has it that it was made from the leftover materials when the first emperor collected weapons from all over the world and cast twelve bronze bells.

This bell has played a vital role in historical events both large and small, and it suddenly rang at this moment.

The last time was said to be a major disaster nearly twenty years ago, and now it is ringing again.

Chen Ning'an walked out of the room slowly, his posture slightly stiff.

The house was empty, and the people on the street were not real people.

He wanted to find the red-robed corpse, and at the same time wanted to see what the [ghosts] and [gods] would do.

"Jingle Bell."

The phone rang with messages from Xie Chi, Huang Yue, Lu Shang, and Qin Wen.

There is only one meaning: Let’s begin!

"Haha, it's finally here!"

Suddenly, a social animal carrying a briefcase on the street burst into laughter. He took off his clothes, tore off his tie, and spread out his briefcase on the ground.

"We exist wherever God is watching, punishing evil and promoting good, everywhere."

He shouted prayers, took out a seal and stamped frantically on the things in the briefcase!
At this moment, the employees in an office knelt on the ground and struggled in pain, but to no avail.

A huge blood-red word "God" covered the company's logo.

"Die, innocent man, and become food for the [ghost]!"

A girl on the subway frantically grabbed the hair of people around her and put it on a palm-sized piece of yellow paper.

"Are you sick!"

The man whose hair was grabbed tried to punch the girl, but his head suddenly separated from his neck.

"Die, die, you all must die."

The girl was wandering around in the carriage, chasing after the crowd, but anyone caught would be killed.

“Is this their sacrifice?”

Chen Ning'an was in the chaos on the street. There were quite a few "members" and even quite a few "pilgrims" among them.

They cheered as they held their spoils.

"Die!"

A man ran towards him with a seal in his hand, and wanted to stamp Chen Ning'an under the seal.

Chen Ningan dodged sideways, kicked him into the alley and walked in.

"No, I was wrong, ah!"

A shrill scream was heard, but no one cared anymore.

It's a carnival!
No one concealed it anymore. Zhongcheng had completely become an amusement park, and tourists were people holding stamps or yellow paper.

Chen Ningan walked out of the alley and saw someone flying at low altitude.

He didn't know how many people he had sacrificed, and he was shouting excitedly at this moment. Although he was not flying very fast, he was definitely soaring.

The streets began to be covered with bloody words, and many corpses appeared, either standing or kneeling.

"Help me, please help me!"

A head is begging for help everywhere. He is not dead yet, but his body has completely lost its life.

When he arrived in front of Chen Ning'an, he was still begging for help, his face paler than paper.

"I'll save you."

Chen Ning'an took off his mask, revealing only a piece of paper and a protruding bamboo pole inside.

He gently held the frightened head and placed it on the bamboo pole.

"I'll save you."

Chen Ning'an's words came out from his frightened head.

This was a grand sacrifice for the [ghosts] and [gods], and also an opportunity for Chen Ning'an. One by one, paper figures came out and began to replace the identities of those people.

During this process, he felt that his control over the Yin God was becoming more and more proficient, and he could even clearly see the operations of the Yin God.

It is no longer the trance and split personality of before, but now I can make some intervention.

"Don't come over here, don't come over here!"

The crazy people on the street approached a house. Chen Ning'an didn't want to pay attention to them, but what the owner did made him concerned.

He was holding a half-bowl of water, standing in the middle with three chopsticks, and yelling, "Go away, everyone go away!"

The method of using chopsticks to stand upright to ward off evil spirits.

That was something Chen Ning'an asked Xiaofan to spread. I didn't expect to see it here.

What’s even more amazing is that after the chopsticks stood up, they actually created an invisible barrier. Many people felt unwell after entering and had to leave.

But soon someone noticed something was wrong and rushed into the owner's house after kicking over the dishes and chopsticks. Soon screams were heard everywhere.

Crazy, all crazy!

The situation was quickly getting out of control, and the number of pilgrims and members was beyond Chen Ning'an's imagination.

They used the people of Zhongcheng as food to finance their rapid growth.

It is hard to imagine how terrifying the [gods] and [ghosts] who are behind it are.

Chen Ning'an also saw Ye An's people among them.

They used some kind of weapon to maintain law and order and began to selectively shoot the perpetrators. The member who was already able to fly was shot dead from a long distance.

"when!"

Chen Ning'an took two steps back, and the bullet penetrated his paper body and landed on the railing behind him.

Was he targeted too?

Looking in the direction of the hole, he saw a Ye An happily turning the gun and pointing it at him.

This is intentional, they are also venting their desires.
