One person: Reborn as Huangxian, seeking the title of Feng Baobao at the beginning
Chapter 584 Lure the snake out of its hole
But this does not mean that the other four families with extraordinary abilities are like the Xu family.
At least, when they fought against Master Qingfeng, those four unseen supernatural beings were quite powerful.
If they really belong to the remaining four families guarding the supernatural beings, then it means that among the five families, only the Xu family has encountered a change of fortune!
"What? There are four other families of extraordinary beings? That's not right. Aren't these families supposed to exist to protect the water-suppressing divine beast?"
Why would they target the only remaining child of the Xu family? Don't they want the water-suppressing beast to stay here peacefully?
Or is it that they simply don't want stability in the Xichuan region?
Although losing a water-suppressing mythical beast may not completely destroy the Xichuan region, judging from the current losses, the overall economy of the Xichuan region will be set back by at least ten years due to this disaster!
For ordinary people, how many decades are there?
This alone is enough to make people hate the person behind the scenes to the core.
Chen Tian absolutely refused to believe that the water-suppressing mythical beast beneath Tianfu Square was unearthed by accident.
After all, if that were the case, how could the water-suppressing mythical beast that was transferred to the museum be fake?
Who could create an identical replica of the water-suppressing mythical beast so quickly after it was unearthed?
As we think about these issues further, the truth becomes crystal clear.
Chen Tian had the answer to his doubts without needing anyone else to do so.
"According to what Xu Yuyi said before, he himself knew nothing about the water-suppressing divine beast and the family's protection, but his parents were indeed killed by someone who came to his door."
Even though the Xu family has fallen on hard times, Xu Yuyi's parents still possessed some skills; perhaps some clues can be found from them!
Wu Xie and Qingfeng Daoist nodded in unison, their thoughts coinciding.
"I've already sent Commander Gao to search for Xu Yuyi's old home, but we haven't found his parents' bodies yet, so I doubt we'll be able to find them either!"
Xu Yuyi has been unconscious, so Wu Xie asked Gao Yuanda to handle these matters, but there has been no news so far.
"I...I know where their bodies are!"
A weak voice suddenly rang out in the ward, and everyone turned to look in the direction from which the voice came.
Suddenly, Xu Yuyi, who had been unconscious, opened his eyes.
He had clearly overheard Wu Xie and the others' conversation; his eyes were bright and pleading as he looked at them.
"Through the connection of blood, I can find where my parents' bodies are!"
Fearing that Chen Tian and the others might not have heard clearly, Xu Yuyi repeated it again.
He struggled to slowly sit up in bed.
"If anyone in this world could find my parents' bodies, besides the person who did it, it would only be me. However, even if I knew where their bodies were, I couldn't go into the water to retrieve them."
As guardians of the water-suppressing divine beast, they failed to protect it, causing an accident in our generation. Death was their inescapable fate!
Brother Wu, I beg you, if it really was the other four extraordinary families who attacked our Xu family, then it means that the water-suppressing divine beasts guarded by the other four extraordinary families have also been harmed.
I don't know what happened to the water-suppressing beast they were guarding, but I believe that any conspiracy will eventually be exposed.
"Please, I beg you, you must find the water-suppressing beast, just so the people of Xichuan will no longer suffer disaster, okay?"
Although Xu Yuyi had his own selfish motives, wanting to avenge his parents, he was also concerned about the entire Xichuan region.
Having come this far, Xu Yuyi has already done his best. Forced to shoulder the heavy burden, he has accomplished it remarkably well.
It's unlikely that anyone else could have done as well as him.
"You say you know where your parents' bodies are?"
Master Qingfeng grasped the key point in Xu Yuyi's words.
"After activating the Xu family's token, I vaguely sensed the approximate location of my parents' bodies!"
Xu Yuyi nodded, his face full of sorrow.
If he could, he would love to bring his parents' remains back himself, but now is not the time.
As guardians of the water-suppressing divine beast, Xu Yuyi's parents both left a trace of their essence blood on the token.
Before entering the underground space where the water-suppressing beast was buried, Xu Yuyi simply held the token without actually activating it, so he had no idea about his parents' situation.
He thought that as long as he didn't see his parents' bodies, he could deceive himself into believing that his parents were still alive, and that as long as he persevered, his family would eventually be reunited.
Unfortunately, after the token was activated, Xu Yuyi realized that he was truly the only one left in the Xu family bloodline.
At that moment, he didn't know how to describe his feelings. Perhaps it was sadness, perhaps it was grief, or perhaps it was no emotion at all, because he didn't shed a single tear.
Hearing Xu Yuyi's words, Wu Xie and the others wanted to ask something, but Qingfeng Daoist stopped them, saying, "He was injured after all. Now that he's awake, he should focus on recovering. Once he's fully recovered, we'll go find his parents' remains!"
After saying that, Master Qingfeng pulled Chen Tian and Wu Xie away from the ward.
"Master, what's going on? Xu Yuyi finally woke up, can't you just ask him directly? Why won't you let me speak?"
Chen Tian was carefree and easygoing, unlike Wu Xie who was more meticulous. He came out looking puzzled, not understanding Qingfeng Daoist's intentions.
Master Qingfeng didn't speak; instead, suppressed, low sobs came from the ward.
Chen Tian shut his mouth.
"He's still just a child. He's been through so much all at once, and his internal wounds are building up. He needs to cry it out and release his emotions!"
Master Qingfeng sighed deeply and looked into the ward through the glass window in the door. Xu Yuyi only dared to show his emotions when he was alone in the ward.
On this day, no one disturbed Xu Yuyi, and he was finally able to release all the sadness in his heart and cry freely.
He knew in his heart that Master Qingfeng and the others were right outside the ward, but what could he do about it?
Xu Yuyi couldn't hold back any longer.
This emotional outburst lasted for most of the day.
Meanwhile, Chen Tian and his team received a clue from the museum curator. The staff member responsible for guarding the water-suppressing beast had suddenly fallen into a coma and remained unconscious. After being taken to the hospital, various tests were conducted, and while his bodily functions were normal, he simply wouldn't wake up.
The curator suddenly thought of Master Qingfeng and his group, so he quickly contacted them.
Is it really just a coincidence that the staff member fell into a coma after solving the problem in the Xichuan area?
While Qingfeng Daoist contacted Commander Gao and asked him to arrange manpower in the restricted area to investigate the staff member's detailed information over the past year as soon as possible, he asked Wu Xie to stay at the hospital with Xu Yuyi, while he and Chen Tian went to the hospital where the staff member was located.
In the ward, the curator rubbed his hands together, paced back and forth, and glanced at the door from time to time. Anyone with eyes could see that he was in a bad mood.
When Master Qingfeng and his group arrived, this was the appearance of the curator.
The curator's eyes lit up the moment he saw Master Qingfeng.
"Master Qingfeng, you've finally arrived. The doctor said that this staff member's bodily functions have inexplicably begun to decline, and no matter what medicine is used, it's not working. I'm afraid he won't be around for long."
I know that the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau has been dealing with some strange and unusual things. The water-suppressing divine beast was switched out midway through the process, so this staff member must know something.
Master Qingfeng, you must save him!
At this moment, the curator was filled with lingering fear.
He had always known that the stone beast unearthed at Tianfu Square was very strange. As for why it was strange, he hadn't figured it out yet, nor did he have the mind to think about it. He only knew that this staff member absolutely could not get into trouble. Otherwise, the whereabouts of the real water-suppressing divine beast would truly be a mystery.
With this in mind, the curator eagerly awaited Master Qingfeng's arrival. He believed that only the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau could save this staff member at the moment.
"His body was drugged and controlled, and he even lost part of his soul. It's no wonder he couldn't wake up!"
Chen Tian glanced around casually, walked to the bedside, and then spoke to the curator in a nonchalant manner.
Even Master Qingfeng was surprised that Chen Tian could see the problem at a glance.
Summoning spirits is not difficult for them; however, the medicine administered to their bodies requires further investigation.
"His soul is lost? Then... comrades, what should we do to retrieve his lost soul and spirit?"
When I was a child, I often heard people say that if you lose your soul, you can just find it back.
But the key question is, who dares to perform a soul-summoning ritual for someone?
The curator looked expectantly at Chen Tian and Daoist Qingfeng, not daring to continue speaking.
Chen Tian did not answer the curator's question. Instead, he took out an incense burner from his backpack, placed it on the bedside table, lit a stick of sandalwood, and inserted it into the incense burner.
The fragrance of sandalwood wafted through the hospital room.
The curator stared in disbelief, his gaze following the wisps of sandalwood smoke.
"Prepare to summon his soul! If his spirit can return!"
Chen Tian was speaking to Daoist Qingfeng.
The two had a certain understanding of each other and naturally knew what the other was thinking.
The reason for choosing to summon the spirit in the hospital ward was simply to lure the snake out of its hole.
As for whether they could lure out the "snake," neither Chen Tian nor Daoist Qingfeng were sure. Success would be great, but even if they failed, waking up the staff member would be good.
The curator was asked to leave the ward.
In the ward, only Chen Tian and the unconscious staff member remained.
Master Qingfeng sat outside with the abbot, and no one noticed that a black thread was wrapped around Master Qingfeng's wrist at some point.
"Taoist Master, is it alright if we just sit here like this?"
The curator was still somewhat incredulous. Did they really not need their help?
I feel more unsafe sitting here.
"Let's wait and see. Or, you could go back and rest first, Director. The atmosphere in the hospital is chaotic, and you've been tempted before, so it's not a good place for you to stay."
Master Qingfeng gave the curator a deep look before slowly speaking.
My gaze went straight into the curator's eyes, and for a moment, it was as if I could see right through the curator's heart.
The curator's heart skipped a beat, and he didn't know why. He knew perfectly well that staying in the hospital and by Master Qingfeng's side was the safest place for him, but his mouth involuntarily uttered something else entirely: "Then I'll go back and rest first. I'll leave everything to Master Qingfeng!"
After saying this, the curator seemed to be chased by something, and left almost in two strides.
Watching the curator's hurried departure, Master Qingfeng narrowed his eyes.
For some unknown reason, he turned and went back to the ward.
"how's it going?"
Upon entering the ward and seeing Chen Tian standing by the bed, Master Qingfeng assumed something had happened and took two steps to the bedside.
Then, he saw a faint blue light flashing on the forehead of the staff member.
"Master, do you think this azure light might be hinting at another family?"
Chen Tian was still in the mood to joke. After staring at the blue light for a while, he stepped back and sat down.
Previously, he hadn't noticed a very faint, almost invisible bluish mark below the staff member's forehead.
Many babies are born with this mark between their eyebrows, so Chen Tian didn't pay much attention to it.
After lighting the incense for the summoning of the spirit, nothing changed in the room, leading Chen Tian to believe he had made a mistake. Then, when he wasn't paying attention, a bluish light appeared between the staff member's eyebrows.
At first, they were both mistaken; the missing soul and spirit of the staff member had not left his body, but were trapped between his eyebrows.
"His soul is still inside his body, which is good news. As long as we dispel this blue light, he will wake up soon!"
Master Qingfeng remained calm, carefully examining the staff member's brow for a long time before slowly speaking.
"If it were that simple, he wouldn't have remained unconscious. This azure light is imprisoning his soul and spirit, its purpose being to prevent him from speaking. Whenever the topic of the water-suppressing divine beast is mentioned, he will fall into a coma."
Forcibly extracting this azure light is possible, but if one is not careful, the person will become completely mentally impaired, and their soul and spirit will never return!
This is precisely where the mastermind's insidious nature lies. He doesn't want the staff member's life, but he's using his soul as leverage.
Chen Tian had observed the situation several times and dared not act rashly.
"So ruthless? Perhaps we should find the Director? He'll definitely have a solution!"
Master Qingfeng understood Chen Tian's concerns, and he himself was indeed unable to do it.
After much thought, it seemed that the only option was to seek help from Huang Miao.
-
Lianyungang City, Nine Gates Feng Shui Formation.
Huang Miao was leisurely watering a potted plant with a watering can.
Just then, Master Qingfeng called.
"You mean, someone used some method to imprison a person's soul and spirit within their body, and you can't solve it?"
After listening to Master Qingfeng's general account of the situation, Huang Miao put down the kettle and sat down.
"Director, that blue light must be a special technique of the opposing family. I dare not act rashly, for fear of harming the souls of my staff."
Based on the clues we have so far, this person must have been bewitched, which led to the original water-suppressing divine beast being quietly replaced.
He must have met with the person behind the scenes.
Chen Tian simply turned on the camera and showed Huang Miao the situation of the staff in the ward, especially the area between Huang Miao's eyebrows.
Huang Miao immediately noticed the bluish light between the staff member's eyebrows. (End of Chapter)
