Maoshan Taoist priests practice falsehood and become reality

Chapter 99 Counterattack Horn
  "Someone come and save us. There are all self-destructors outside and we can't get out! Oh my god, is District 9 about to fall? Why do so many evil spirits suddenly appear!"

"Where are the people from the séance! Where were they all at the critical moment? The inner city has been occupied by evil spirits!"

"I just escaped from the town, and the séance was fighting evil spirits. Many people died, and the situation in the outer city is worse than the inner city!"

"Help……"

"My family was all killed in the bombing. I have never seen this world again. If I were to be reborn, I would never want to be a human being again."

"Please don't give up. We are currently recovering the outer city, and the fire in the inner city has been controlled in time. After the long night, there will be dawn."

Xia Qin closed her eyes and seemed to have fallen asleep.

A woman worthy of being a super seancer could still fall asleep in such a situation.

Xia Xiaoling, who was lying next to her, was scrolling through short messages and videos on her phone, tossing and turning.

The situation is unprecedentedly bad. This is the most serious evil spirit incident since the establishment of the safe zone.

In the past three hours, at least tens of thousands of people died. Fires caused by serial explosions mercilessly devoured block after block.

Humans all over the world are paying close attention to the progress of the invasion, and the most authoritative media even published the heavyweight title "The Darkest Hour of District 9, Who is the Enemy?"

The Séance has issued an order to send a team to rush for reinforcements at starry night, but before friendly forces arrive, District 9 can only survive the most difficult period alone.

Fortunately, not every refresh pops up is about life and death.

"All firefighters went out, without fear of evil spirits or life and death, to carry out fire-fighting work to protect the safety of people's lives and property, and fires in many places were effectively contained!"

"Some people spontaneously took to the streets and formed self-defense forces to cooperate with the evacuation of the disaster-stricken areas."

"Since ancient times, no one has ever died. Rather than sit back and wait for death, it's better to go to hell!"

"Pass it on, keep a distance of more than five meters from the self-destructing evil spirit. If you don't take the initiative to attack, there is a high probability that it will not trigger the explosion. But when you see the spider evil spirit, you must run away as soon as possible. Those guys seem to be smart."

"Doctor, I can still carry it. Let's save the women and children first."

"Quick report! Investigators have recaptured Xingchen Street and are working to eliminate evil spirits!"

"What is being broadcast live is the battle between the frontline seancers and evil spirits. In the past two hours, the seancers have resisted wave after wave of attacks. Although more than half of them were injured or killed, no one has retreated!"

"Use your body as firewood to lift fire for mankind!"

Streets and alleys, public places in hospitals, war front lines... As he kept brushing, the corners of Xia Xiaoling's eyes gradually became moist, and tears fell uncontrollably.

Working in the journalism industry, she has seen so much of the dark side of human nature that she has forgotten that there is also a bright side to it.

One invasion is not enough to destroy this tenacious race. The safe zone is what it is today because it has gone through a long period of darkness.

As long as the fire remains, there will always be hope.

Search, hope.

Countless videos popped up, and the first one was a confession from a survivor:

"Everyone, I should be the self-destructor you call me. Before dusk, I was having dinner with my family. Suddenly my whole body became hot and red. I lost my mind and turned into a monster. There is a video to prove it..."

"Fortunately, I returned to normal. No one may believe it, but the person who saved me should be a white crane. It fell from the sky and made a crisp chirp. Suddenly I woke up and very calmly escaped to The nearby shelter. It’s incredible…”

white crane?

Countless people in the comment area came forward to testify: "I saw it with my own eyes. The white crane is absolutely real. It spit out golden light and killed a monster in front of my eyes."

"The old man at home said that the crane came to the world to save all sentient beings."

The rumors became more and more mysterious, until another video was trending.

"Everyone, I took a picture of that crane!"

In the video, a white crane can be vaguely seen soaring over the street. Wherever it passes, those who self-destruct all regain their senses and wake up.

"Is it possible that the white crane is also an evil spirit?" Someone raised a question, and was quickly overwhelmed by overwhelming rebuttals.

"How can an evil spirit save people? It's all wrong logic! I'm more inclined to think that this is the latest secret weapon developed by the séance."

"Secret weapon? I don't rule out the possibility."    "I think it's a god coming to the world."

"Gods... Alas, there are no gods in this world. If there were, humans would not suffer such disasters. If the white crane is real, it should be a biochemical weapon!"

"Whether it's a god or a secret weapon. No matter what it is, it has saved some people. For me, it is hope and salvation."

Hope and redemption.

Xia Xiaoling's nose felt sore, and suddenly her phone automatically jumped to the live broadcast page. The screen kept shaking, and then returned to normal. The background was fixed on the riddled Pearl Tower.

A familiar face appeared.

Perseverance, sharp edges and corners, a little bit of the vicissitudes of time.

"Everyone, I am Wei Zonglin, the vice president of the Ninth District Séance. After a difficult and dangerous battle, the culprit who invaded the Ninth District has been killed."

A charred corpse appeared for two seconds.

"Here, I declare that the clarion call for District 9's counterattack has officially sounded! Ahem..."

"President, are you okay?"

"Shh, don't talk. Comrades, the dawn is close at hand! Pick up the weapons in your hands and drive out the evil spirits from our homes!"

The video, which lasted less than a minute, caused an uproar in the Ninth District. Even the quiet Xingguang Community was abuzz. Many men rushed to the balcony and shouted loudly, venting their inner fear and anger!
  "He's still the same, not much changed." Xia Qin said something so coldly that Xia Xiaoling almost rolled off the bed.

"Mom, aren't you asleep?"

"Oh, such a big thing happened. How can I sleep? I just closed my eyes and rested my mind."

It turns out that my mother also suffered from insomnia.

Xia Xiaoling got into her mother's arms, while Xia Qin stroked her back as gently as before.

“Have a good rest, it will be very busy in the next period of time.”

"What are you busy with?"

Xia Qin explained that after the evil spirits are defeated, the disaster will not end immediately. By then, the victims will be displaced and all kinds of materials will inevitably be in short supply.

During this period, she plans to provide free food, water, and various daily necessities to the victims.

This is an undertaking that requires hard work, and I hope Xia Xiaoling can help.

Xia Xiaoling suddenly understood why Xia Qin was committed to building a chain of convenience stores even though she had enough wealth.

"In the past, when your father went to the front line to fight, I was responsible for the logistics supplies. In the face of disasters, ordinary people have things that ordinary people can do. If everyone does their part and works together, no matter how difficult the day is, we can get through it. .”

"It would be nice if my dad was still here."

"Even if your father is not here, your mother will protect you."

"Mom, if you say that, I will cry."

"Didn't you already cry?"

"mom!"

"Where?"

"Get a glass of water from the kitchen."

Xia Xiaoling walked out of the kitchen with a glass of water and suddenly felt a chill as she passed by the living room.

She instinctively looked towards the balcony and found that the locked glass door was slowly being opened by invisible forces.

"Snapped!"

The glass fell,
  fell to pieces.
