Hailing barren city

"People from the Ling family... You came just in time..." It grinned grinningly, "Father pays off, I didn't drag you into the water last time in the underground palace, this time I will eat your eyeballs first!"

Ling Li immediately understood.

"Tao Rujiu is possessed!"

Qi Maoxian nodded in embarrassment.

"I'm afraid of hurting his body and soul, and I've been waiting for the Taoist priest to drive away the resentful soul with a weapon."

Sharply raised his right hand. "I brought the mahogany sword here, is it useful?"

Maoxian rolled his eyes at him.

"Now I can only take this resentful soul out of the underground palace together with Tao Rujiu. I have my own plans for the next thing. Can you help?"

Ling Li nodded without thinking.

"of course."

Therefore, Immortal Qimao put aside the magic circle for the time being, walked outside the woods, and sharply pushed the resentful soul into one of the coffins, cast the magic circle again, and finally carried it outside.Ling Li couldn't think of a better idea than this for a while, so he only had intentions.

So one person and one cat went back to the woods again.

"What? Are you ready to die? Let me strangle you one by one!"

Resentful Soul watched Ling Li walking towards the woods, his eyes were full of contempt.At this moment, Qimao Immortal suddenly retracted the magic circle, jumped sharply, and rushed towards Tao Rujiu's body from a distance.

Caught off guard, the ghost took four or five steps back, and hastily raised its hand to pinch the sharp neck.At this time, Qimao Immortal jumped down from the tree again, and tightly held his plump body covered with white hairs in front of the resentful soul.

Taking advantage of the situation, Ling Li put his arms around Tao Rujiu's waist and lifted it up, dragging him towards the coffin next to him.After a few steps, the fingernails of Wraith Soul suddenly grew suddenly, and he raised his head and grabbed Qi Maoxian.

Maoxian felt the pain, and his claws involuntarily dug into Tao Rujiu's neck.However, the resentful soul didn't know the pain, and still tried hard to get the Qi Maoxian down.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ling Li hurriedly stopped to break Tao Rujiu's hand, but he didn't realize that the underground water flow behind him had already stood up like a cobra!

The white fur of the Chimao Fairy was stained with a little bit of dark red, and the moisture from Tao Rujiu's blood was felt in its paws. It knew that if it continued in this stalemate, it would only cause damage to Tao Rujiu.It let go of its claws and jumped off Tao Rujiu's body. At the same time, the cold underground water also slammed into its fierce back.

The hostility in the groundwater did not have any effect on Ling Li, but the gushing mist blurred the man's vision.

Under the cover of this mist, the resentful soul quickly got up, grabbed the coffin board at hand, and smashed it down hard!

He couldn't dodge fiercely, and was hit on the back by the coffin board. It was the smallest pink coffin lid, but it was still more powerful than ordinary wooden sticks.It hit the man with a frightening sound, and the wooden plank snapped in two, and Ling Li also fell to the ground.But the resentful soul still seemed to be still angry, and still beat the people who had almost no resistance with the broken planks one after another.

Seeing that Ling Li was a little bit motionless, Qi Maoxian rushed forward desperately, but was easily thrown away by the ghost.

The sharp smell of blood quickly spread in the air.The resentful soul finally stopped, squatted down with a smile, and teased the motionless man.

"Is it dead? It's so useless..."

The grieving ghost's cold fingers lightly patted on the fierce cheek.Looking at his limbs and body again, he suddenly smiled strangely and nodded.

"I was going to dismember you, but now this body seems to be good, so I'll let you die thoroughly, and I'll move it into your body again!"

Saying that, he pressed Ling Li's chest with one hand, and raised the broken wood with the other hand, trying to stab Ling Li's chest abruptly!

Immortal Qimao, who was thrown to the side, knew that something was wrong, so he hurriedly performed the curse of Wulei Zhengfa to force out the ghost's soul, but at this moment, Ling Li opened his eyes, grabbed the right hand of the ghost, and at the same time dodged sideways to chop The falling broken wood pressed Tao Rujiu's body tightly underneath.The resentful ghost was restrained, and he wanted to use his long nails to pinch his sharp eyeballs, but accidentally touched the blood dripping from the man's forehead.

"Uh... ah!"

After a strange scream, it retracted its hand, as if it was afraid of something.Ling Li took the opportunity to grab Tao Rujiu's wrist, and pressed his knee against his lower abdomen.During this period, a lot of his blood dripped onto Tao Rujiu's body again, and the ghost in that body writhed in pain as if scalded by boiling oil.

At this moment, Qimao Fairy suddenly realized, and hastily withdrew the spell, and shouted to Ling Li: "Your blood is the most yang thing, if you rub it on Tao Rujiu's body, the grieving ghost will be driven out!"

Hearing Maoxian's words, Ling Li immediately wiped Tao Rujiu's head with his own blood, and the ghost jumped violently and struggled, several times worse than before.Although ghost strength and yin energy can't have an effect on Ling Li, but just relying on the strength of fists and feet, he can still beat a man who has been beaten badly.

With its hands restrained, it raised its feet and kicked it, hitting its lower body fiercely twice. The man moaned in a low voice, but still insisted on smearing his blood on the controlled body.

Tao Rujiu heard the scream of the ghost, and gradually regained some sensation in his hands and feet, as if he had relaxed after being paralyzed for a long time, with a slight tingling pain.Although the body is still moving according to the will of the grieving ghost, he can already feel the sensations from the outside world, such as pain and dampness.

Tao Rujiu could even feel the heat of the sharp palm sliding on his body with the stickiness of blood.

After a while, the sensation of hands and feet became more and more acute, and the nose seemed to be able to smell the faint smell of blood. Tao Rujiu tried to move his hands and feet, and forcibly took back the kick that the grieving ghost had kicked hard.

"It works!" Qi Maoxian shouted from the side, "Tao Tao, that's it, take your body back little by little!"

Ling Li seemed to have sensed the change in the person below him, he paused a little on his hands, and withdrew his knees against Tao Rujiu's lower abdomen, and his movements became gentler.

At this time, the voice of the resentful soul rang directly in Tao Rujiu's ears:

"... Don't even think about driving me away... If I leave, I will bring you along with me... Let you taste the taste of resentment and be my slave forever..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man felt difficulty in breathing, and his left shoulder suddenly felt a sharp pain, as if five hooks had passed through his collarbone and were being pulled outward.

He suddenly wondered if it was the resentful soul holding his soul to go out together.In a trance, he suddenly remembered the spell that Maoxian wrote in his palm.

Tao Rujiu raised his hand vigorously.

Although there is still effort, the numbness has completely disappeared.Ling Li was still half-kneeling on top of him, that posture looked so strange at the moment.The young man saw the blood continuously flowing from Ling Li's forehead, the amount was frightening.Perhaps if the stalemate continued for a while, the man would actually faint or even die due to excessive blood loss.

I don't want to be stained with blood that can't be washed off.Even more unwilling to think carefully about the impact of a fierce death on himself.At this time, Tao Rujiu seemed to have thought a lot about it, and he didn't seem to have any worries at all. He gritted his teeth and lifted his handprints to the top of his head...

Immortal Qimao noticed his actions and was really startled, and immediately shouted, "Stop!"

Ling Li was also taken aback by the roar, and immediately wanted to grab Tao Rujiu's hand.

It's a pity they were one step too late!

Tao Rujiu only felt the pain in his right shoulder disappear suddenly, and his limbs also lost consciousness again.His whole body was light and fluffy like cotton wool—he was in the state of a soul again, and was forced out of his body by a powerful force!

Before he could even utter a cry for help, there was darkness in front of his eyes.

The raised hand fell weakly again, and the body that was struggling just now turned into a corpse, and hurriedly tried Tao Rujiu's breath, but he couldn't feel anything!

"Sharp! Hurry up!" Immortal Qimao quickly set up a magic circle beside Tao Rujiu, "Hold Tao Rujiu tightly, don't let his soul fly away!

As the ghost's soul left the body, the surrounding groundwater splashed.Ling Li hugged Tao Rujiu's body tightly, in the white mist, his eyes gradually darkened, and finally he couldn't see anything.

Ling Li opened his eyes and found that his eyes were white.White walls, white bed, white sofa, only red flowers in the vase at the head of the bed.A nurse also dressed in white came over and greeted softly, "Mr. Ling, are you awake?"

He frowned sharply, and there was a nasty smell of disinfectant in the air.He raised his hand, only to find that the back of his hand was connected with a push needle tube, and several places on his body were tightly restrained by bandages.

"What's wrong with me?" He asked, and the answer he received was excessive blood loss, multiple bruises, subcutaneous bleeding, and a hole in his forehead, but fortunately there was nothing wrong with the bones.

Secretary, "Boss Ling, you have been in a coma for two days."

"Really?" Ling Li rubbed his hair with his free right hand, slowly recalling everything that happened, "Did the old man already know?"

Han Fei nodded, "I reported this to Xiyao the next day after I arrived, saying that your injury was a small accident during the trip, and there is nothing to worry about."

"Okay." He nodded sharply, but his fingers twitched involuntarily, it turned out that he was addicted to cigarettes.So I tried to change the subject: "Who sent me to the hospital?"

Han Fei replied, "It's Sun Zhendao. Master Lu from the troupe had a check-up yesterday and was discharged from the hospital without any problems. The old man at the gate of the underground palace suddenly suffered from coronary heart disease while arguing with others yesterday, and he was also admitted to the hospital."

He paused, then took out a file as if by magic.

"The old man's relative was one of the three people who died in the underground palace accident. He was given the job of guarding the gate as compensation."

Nodding sharply, after a moment of silence, he asked again, "Where's Tao Rujiu?"

Han Fei was stunned, and after thinking for a while before reacting, he didn't answer directly: "There is a 'kid' waiting for you at the door. Do you need me to bring him in?"

Ling Li hesitated for a moment, then stood up suddenly, pulled out the needle that had been stuck in his arm before the nurse stopped him, and got out of bed with difficulty.

"No, I'm going out to meet him."

After finishing speaking, he didn't need anyone's support, and walked slowly to the entrance alone, pushed the door open and walked out.

There were almost no people in the corridor of the VIP ward, and there were rows of white chairs along the corner.The "little friend" Han Fei called was sitting at the other end of the chair.

Although there was a distance of nearly ten meters, Ling Li could still clearly see that the person was Qin Huakai.Curled up in the corner like a juvenile cat, looking unhappy.

"Blooming?" He called out sharply, but there was an indescribable sense of loss in his heart.

The young man looked up, and when he saw the man, there was a moment of joy in his eyes, but it soon dimmed, like a small animal that did something wrong.Slowly stood up and walked over.

(President Ling...) He said in sign language, (Is your injury okay?)

Ling Li shook his head, "It's okay, I think it's okay to be discharged from the hospital now."

The man asked again, "Are you here alone?"

Blossom nods.

(I came with Secretary Han.)

Ling Li also nodded, and looked around unconsciously a few times, the real question came to his lips, but he didn't know how to express it.But after hesitating for a while, he finally spoke.

"...Tao Rujiu, is he alright?"

The young man was startled, then suddenly lowered his head, just doing sign language.

(Actually... what happened during this time, I want... to explain clearly to you first.)

The two sat down on the chair.
