Maoshan Taoist priests practice falsehood and become reality

Chapter 33 Two Documents
  An hour ago, the Binhai City Branch of the Ninth District Séance received two documents.

The first document comes from the Ninth District Séance and reads as follows:

According to the judgment of the testing center, Xia Qin, the chairman of 7 Days Convenience Store, has been cursed by an evil spirit and may mutate at any time. The degree of danger is extremely high. She must be monitored at all times and arranged to enter the final hospice care process.

The second document is an interception of the first document, and the content is as follows:
  Xia Qin is a rare special individual with experimental value. Special personnel will be sent to the Psychic Research Institute in District 1 in two days to be taken over by the institute. No one is allowed to approach the experimental subjects without permission.

The signatory of the first document is Ouyang Hai, the president of the Ninth District Séance, and the signatory of the second document is Wei Zonglin, the vice president of the Séance Association and the vice president of the Ninth District Séance.

Two completely different documents put the Seaside Branch into a difficult decision. On one side is the immediate superior, and on the other side is the deputy for the entire séance.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a choice to take sides. The struggle for power between the two big figures may have started when Wei Zonglin was first interviewed.

Wei Zonglin advocated reducing publicity funds and investing the saved resources in expanding the séance team. This is incompatible with Ouyang Hai, who advocates maintaining the status quo and allowing seanceers to return to normal life in society.

It is said that the two of them only met once during the ceremony when Wei Zonglin took over as the vice-president of the Ninth District Séance, and since then there has been a feeling of a king not seeing the king.

It stands to reason that Wei Zonglin's position is higher than Ouyang Hai. But Ouyang Hai's unexpectedly tough attitude made people doubt the previous rumors that Wei Zonglin had been kicked out of the séance center.

Of course, those who support Wei Zonglin believe that transferring him out of District 1 is just a clever detour to paralyze others.

There are different opinions and the truth is still confusing. The Binhai City branch has less than an hour left.

Here soldiers must choose the leader they will follow. In the end, the Binhai City branch decided to resolve the issue by voting.

Ten minutes later, the first file order won with an advantage of 1.5:1. The Binhai City Spiritual Sect branch decided to immediately dispatch to arrest Xia Qin.

This task fell into the hands of Chen Ji by drawing lots, but his newly assigned partner Wang Yuran refused to accompany him.

Before leaving, Chen Ji persuaded again: "Are you really not going with me? This is an excellent opportunity for performance."

Wang Yuran refused coldly: "To capture an ordinary person, do you need to use two intermediate spiritual masters? I have other more important things."

"alright."

The reasons given by Wang Yuran were sufficient, and there was no need to mobilize a large force to arrest an ordinary person. What's more, it's at this juncture when evil spirits appear frequently.

But is this matter just as simple as arresting someone?

Chen Ji sighed.

……

The car was speeding through the night.

Chen Ji was sitting in the passenger seat, and there were three young people in the car. They started chatting incessantly from the moment they got in the car.

Under what circumstances is on-site secondary testing necessary? How should you deal with resistance? Whether it is possible for the cursed body to mutate on-site is a commonplace topic.

The three young men are not seancers, but collaborators, who are responsible for helping the seancers handle some trivial matters, including finding and capturing high-risk people who are cursed.

They did not participate in the meeting and voting, so naturally they did not know the nature of the arrest. They only knew that an intermediate spiritual master had joined this mission. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and they had to perform well.

This is the result of information gap, and vision determines cognition.

"Hey, why am I being arrogant? I don't know much more than these young people."

Looking at the jagged buildings outside the car window, Chen Ji was suddenly curious, what were the big shots standing on the top floor thinking?
  Are they excited at this moment? Or sad?

……

On the top floor of the World Hotel, there was a knock on the door of the presidential suite and office.

In front of the panoramic window, Wei Zonglin, who was looking out at the riverside night, said expressionlessly: "Come in."

Zhouzhuang, dressed in black, pushed open the door and reported the latest news:
  "President, the Binhai City branch has sent people to Mrs. Xia's house. Do you need to intercept her halfway?"

"Relax, it's not time for a formal fight, it's just a trial."

"Then just leave it alone?"

"Of course not. Mrs. Xia is a very important person. Go there yourself and don't let anyone take her away."

"What if they insist on taking action?"

"I told you, she's very important."

Zhouzhuang was stunned for a moment, and then a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes.

"clear."

After Zhouzhuang left, Wei Zonglin poured a glass of wine and returned to the floor-to-ceiling window. The Huanyu Hotel was hundreds of meters away, and the night was thick, but he could still see the undercurrent surging underneath through the calm river surface. There, the ancient drama of big fish eating small fish is being performed one after another.

The wine entered his throat and was extremely spicy. Wei Zonglin became more and more curious about who gave Ouyang Hai the courage to compete with him.

……

"We're here, this is the community." No. 214 coordinator and driver Wu Yong rolled down the window, "Security, open the door!"

A head popped out of the security room. The sleepy-eyed security guard looked at the car lights and squinted to catch a glimpse of the eye-catching car logo.

Séance car!
  The car bumper slowly came onto the stage, and the security guard leaned out half of his body and tried to get closer to the car window.

Wu Yong showed his ID, and while receiving respect, he also received careful questions: "What happened?"

"Don't ask if you shouldn't. Where is Building 6?"

"Go forward to the right, it's in the third row."

A group of four people got off the bus and walked to Building 6.

"This is it, please be gentle and don't disturb other people's rest."

"Roger that!"

"Speak a little louder."

The four of them entered the elevator, and Chen Ji asked Wu Yong to pull out Xia Qin's information and take another look.

Staring at the woman on the screen, Chen Ji muttered in his heart:
  "It's strange, I always feel like I've seen it somewhere before."

The elevator reached the sixteenth floor and four people walked out of the elevator.

"1601, here."

Wu Yong pressed the doorbell.

No one responded.

He pressed it several more times.

The door opened.

There was a man and a woman inside the door. They looked to be around twenty years old. They both had extraordinary looks that made people jealous.

The girl's face showed fear when a visitor came late at night.

But the man next to him had a frosty face and asked without a smile: "Who are you?"

Wu Yong showed his ID and reported his home address. Unexpectedly, what he got in exchange was a cold response:
  "What's up?"

A small fire in my heart suddenly sprang up.

"We're looking for someone, you get out of the way."

Su Heng stood motionless at the door.

"Didn't you hear?"

Wu Yong was about to push someone, but was stopped by Chen Ji.

Chen Ji recognized Su Heng and was deeply impressed. Last time on Qingshi Road, the young man suppressed the D-class evil spirit with his bare hands for more than ten minutes.

Wu Yong is the same. What can an F46 do in front of a D40? If they really wanted to fight, he would probably fall down as soon as they came face to face with him.

"Go back, how many times have I told you to be civilized? Sorry, the new guy has a more aggressive personality. Do you still remember me? I met you on Qingshi Road before."

Su Heng: "I forgot."

Chen Ji smiled awkwardly: "It doesn't matter if you forget. Let's get to know Chen Ji, the intermediate spiritual master. This is my ID."

Su Heng took the certificate and checked it over, but found no problems. These people are really from the séance.

Was it sent by Wei Zonglin?
  "Can I come into the house to talk?" Chen Ji asked.

"come in."
