Yin Yang Lantern Man

Chapter 179 Killing
Night Watchman. Chen Ning'an had found these three words in some archives in Zhongcheng.

What it represents is exactly what Ye An’s predecessor represented, not just a past existence, but also a “person” who had fully matured and developed to the end of that era.

As luck would have it, he found more things while looking up information.

Because of the unpredictable nature of the Night Watchmen, if they were to meet future generations in some way, terrible consequences would be triggered.

When a problem arises, something in it will come out and wipe out the person who created the problem.

There is no clear description of this thing in the information, no mention of how dangerous it is, it is just mentioned in passing.

After all, there are really not many Night Watchmen, and the probability of encountering one by yourself is really too small.

Chen Ning'an didn't expect that someone would appear in front of him.

I never expected that the other party would treat me in this way.

"I wanted to talk to you a few more times, but now it seems I can't keep you."

He no longer wanted to explore for more information, but instead attacked fiercely.

When a talisman with vermilion patterns engraved on it appeared in his hand, Lu Yu was no longer calm.

"This is……"

His eyes suddenly widened and he immediately turned and ran away, as if he was familiar with this thing.

There was a slight flash of doubt in Chen Ning'an's eyes, but he quickly ignored it and instantly exerted force with his arm to strike out.

"boom!"

This is a thunder talisman. Who can have the speed of thunder? Lu Yu was hit almost instantly.

Half of his body was almost carbonized. If it weren't for his unusual skin that provided powerful defense, he would have been chopped into ashes.

Even so, large areas of spider-web-like lightning destruction lines appeared on Lu Yu's body. He could no longer run and fell to the ground.

The second talisman was taken out from Chen Ningan's hand.

From the moment he became serious, he would never hold back. Lu Yu opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but Chen Ning'an had already attacked again.

Thunder fell with a "boom", but this was just the beginning. The second one followed immediately, and the third one, the fourth one...

All electrical appliances were destroyed by the thunder, and all fragile and rigid objects such as glass were shattered. The entire third floor was reduced to ruins by the aftermath!
When the smoke filled the air, Chen Ning'an stopped and slowly walked into the ruins.

No harm from smoking?

That's impossible. That only happens in animations. In reality, there is only a big pit where Lu Yu is.

The floor between the third and second floors had been shattered, and Lu Yu had turned into a cloud of gray smoke.

That special sense of crisis disappeared.

Chen Ning'an closed his eyes and sensed it. Indeed, that feeling was fading away and no longer found him.

There was only one letter left on the ground, stained with blood.

"Night Watch, huh."

He picked up the letter, which was protected by a special power. It was obvious that Lu Yu attached great importance to this small piece of paper.

Even though he didn't hit it on purpose, it was not damaged by the terrible thunder just now.

"What a pity, your level is not high enough."

Chen Ning'an was about to put the letter away when he suddenly found words on it.

The red things surrounding the envelope, like bloodstains, gathered together to form a sentence.

"I'll be back for my mail."

Not dead yet?
Chen Ning'an was surprised and felt the difficulty for the first time.

The Night Watchman is completely different from the Night Good.

He is more like a combination of Ye An and Lantern Man. What's more important is that this combination can only be selected from thousands of people.

Lu Yu was the first Night Watchman he met in the strict sense. He was not as strong as him, but he was able to escape from him.

Why did the previous generation disappear?

He put away his thoughts and put the envelope in his arms.

Come to him again? He wanted it very much. Next time, he would just plant the paper man talisman on the other party. So what if it happened a hundred years ago? He could still detect it.

Things here had just ended, and far away from the hospital, Secretary Molly also received the news.

"The plan failed."

There were only four words, and the order was sent from her superiors on her mobile phone, which made Molly feel chilled.

Lu Yu... is dead?
No! This is impossible. How could the thing in the hospital be so powerful? Even the night watchman couldn't solve it?

The most important thing is, that was Lu Yu. If he died, what would happen to Mucheng in that era? What changes would there be in Mucheng now?
These thoughts kept appearing and disappearing in her mind. Ye An, who had carried out the mission with her, did not come back, so the result was predictable.

Molly quickly contacted the person in charge.

"Leader, what should we do next? What impact will Lu Yu's death have?"

She herself really had no idea.

Wait quietly, one hour, two hours...

It turned into an anxious wait, three hours, four hours...

Just when Molly was about to go and ask in person, the person in charge finally replied to her.

"This is not something you should consider. We have just confirmed the news. It is impossible for Lu Yu to be dealt with so easily."

Molly finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what the person in charge said.

If Lu Yu really died, she would never forgive herself for the rest of her life. She was the one who brought him here, and she was the one who killed him with her own hands.

But now it seems that everything turned out well.

Is it really good?

On the third day after the Lu Yu incident at the Eighth Hospital, according to information from the person in charge and intelligence from informants, sudden deaths began to occur on a large scale.

In the first hour, the fifth floor was completely lost.

In the second hour, the entire sixth floor fell.

In the third hour, the seventh floor was overwhelmed and all the doctors were busy with rescue work all the time.

All doctors and nurses received special training on how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation and how to rescue those who died suddenly. Even the patients' families received temporary training.

But one thing that is puzzling is that the doctors were not affected at all.

It seemed as if there was a pair of hands that were deliberately torturing them and preventing them from getting any rest.

Those who have experienced sudden death seem to have developed resistance and never experience crises again.

This condition was soon identified as a "virus" and everyone called it the "sudden death virus."

The sudden death virus is 100% contagious among ordinary people, and no one has escaped it so far.

It was moving so fast that, on average, within an hour, it started to spread upstairs.

The problems at the Eighth Hospital are imminent, and the most important thing is that the convalescent and rehabilitation area on the top floor is full of retired cadres and dignitaries.

The phone in the Ye'an Jinhe Building almost never stopped ringing. The people on the top floor were of extraordinary status, and because of their age, if they died suddenly, they would probably not be able to be rescued.

Urgent phone calls rang every moment in the office of Xue Rudong, the head of the Eighth Hospital area.

It started out as his work number, but quickly became his personal number.

"Don't worry, I will send someone to solve this matter right away."

"I promise, there won't be any problems!"

"Yes, I'm sorry to have worried you, Brother Qin. I know what's going on."

"Oh, cousin, don't you know me yet? I have many ways. The main thing is that they are all in the prison of the deep prison. I will find a way to summon them back."

The phone calls one after another made him anxious.

These were the promises Molly heard from afar before she even entered the office.

She knocked on the door, this time mainly to report some work in other places and to ask how Mr. Lu Yu was doing.

"Come in." Xue Rudong's words were filled with impatience. It would be no good to look for him at this time.

But there was no other way, this was her job. Molly calmed herself down and tried to get away from this place of trouble as soon as she finished reporting her work.

"Person in charge, I'm here to report my work."

Molly began to report in a serious manner, when suddenly there was a loud "clang"!
A bottle of red wine fell to the ground, and Molly trembled with fear, watching the broken glass cut her legs.

Xue Rudong wiped his hands and said nonchalantly: "Go on, I'm just a little irritated."

Molly didn't dare cry out in pain, so she had to continue reporting while enduring the bleeding leg, feeling so aggrieved that she wanted to cry.

She obviously didn't do anything.

But before he could report, Xue Rudong's phone rang again.

"Caonim's!"

Xue Rudong stood up suddenly and punched through the table.

But when he saw the caller ID, he immediately put away his anger and clicked the answer button with a smile on his face.

Before he spoke, he put on a smile: "Hey, what does Grandpa Chun want to ask Xiao Xue to do?"

This expression and humble look made him want to kneel down and talk immediately.

Molly couldn't hear what was being said on the other end, but she could guess about it based on Xue Rudong's answer.

"Your granddaughter is in the Eighth Hospital? Don't worry, I will do my best to solve the problem."

"Yes, it's not about trying your best, but using all the means!"

"Are you responsible for Mucheng? Don't worry, I'll risk my life and the lives of my entire family!"

The call lasted ten minutes, and Xue Rudong was the one making assurances for nine minutes. When the other party hung up, he was already sweating profusely and his face was pale.

Molly didn't dare to speak. This was no longer something she could touch.

Xue Rudong remained expressionless for a long time, and suddenly, he spoke to Molly.

"Go and urgently summon all the guides in the deep prison in Mucheng."

It’s hard to believe that a phone call made him make such an important decision. Who is that old man Chun?

This decision also led to a devastating disaster in the prison.

The top floor of the Eighth Hospital is a rehabilitation and convalescent center, and also the residence of retired cadres and people of status.

It is hard to believe that the entire top floor not only has a chess and card room, but also various entertainment facilities and delicious food available anytime you want.

There are no less than ten five-star chefs alone.

Most people can't come up there, but today, a young man walked up the stairs and glanced at the surroundings.

This floor posed some obstacles for him.

The meat buns couldn’t come up.

Something was protecting the people here, causing him to be temporarily unable to harvest this floor.

After he came up, he immediately used the Qi-viewing technique. Along with severe pain, everything was visible in his eyes.

Black fog, green fog, and... red air!
There was actually a red thing on this floor, and it was so close to him, moving towards him.

Was it discovered?
"Little brother, are you feeling unwell?"

The person who spoke was a girl, about eleven or twelve years old. Her words were soft and she was very well-behaved.

"I am fine."

Chen Ning'an put away his Qi-gazing technique. Using it once made him sweat all over and his clothes were wet.

This girl has something out of control, it could be an out of control object, of course, it could be something else.

"Let me help you sit over there." The girl carefully supported the person in front of her. The strange thing was that when Chen Ning'an had a problem, none of the doctors or nurses paid attention to him.

Because he is not a person of "status".

"My name is Chun Yulu."

The little girl was very sensible. She took Chen Ning'an to her ward and poured him a cup of tea.

Chen Ning'an noticed that the thing floating in the tea was actually old mountain ginseng, and she was the only one in the ward.

This cup of tea is worth hundreds of new Qin coins outside.

He noticed that the girl was very weak, and even the S-level monster was very weak.

"The little sister is very sensible." He took it and took a sip, and he actually felt a hint of warmth all over his body. It is very good for the body, and it is a great tonic for zombies to eat.

"Thank you for the compliment, little brother."

Chun Yulu narrowed her eyes into crescents and looked at him quietly.

"Is there no adult with you?"

Chen Ningan was fine and noticed that the girl was always alone.

"The adults in my family are very busy."

Chun Yulu sighed, "They don't let others play with me either."

This little girl is also a poor person. Chen Ningan is very familiar with her eyes.

I used to be like this, struggling with loneliness for more than twenty years.

Later he saw through everything and was able to escape.

"Strange, the nurses should be here to chase the little brother away by now, why haven't they come yet?"

Chun Yulu was puzzled. Could it be that she didn't notice it today?

That's great. She was almost going crazy: "Little brother, can you play with me, please?"

"I'm very busy."

There was no way Chen Ning'an would play with a child. He was planning to take advantage of the "out-of-control item" on the little girl.

He had been paying attention from the beginning until now and did not notice where the out-of-control object was.

But that red color was clearly emanating from Chun Yulu.

"How about this."

He took out a pen and paper and said, "I will teach you to draw something. If you learn it, I will agree to one of your requests."

"A request?"

Chun Yulu's eyes lit up. Although she was young, she had a lot of ideas.

"Any request is okay?"

"Anything is acceptable except myself."

Chen Ning's calm answer surprised Chun Yulu.

"Everyone else would say that anything is acceptable except for others, why is it the other way around with you?"

But she still picked up the paper and pen confidently: "Don't go back on your word when the time comes."

A paper man talisman was quickly outlined in her hand.

What an amazing memory.

Chen Ning'an was very surprised. She remembered it after just one glance.

In this way...

He said to the little girl, "Wait for me here."

Chen Ning'an went out and came back soon with a bottle of hot, bright red liquid.

"Next, you use this to draw."

That liquid...

Chun Yulu's face turned slightly pale and her hands trembled unconsciously.
