Yin Yang Lantern Man

Chapter 76: The Lantern Man's Terrible Resource Consumption

It took about a month to become a lantern bearer?

Qin Wen stared at this message and ignored all other information.

Just one month, just one month.

He is only a high school student, and this person... is too scary.

He thought that the opponent he was testing was an experienced and shrewd old fox, but he never expected him to be so young.

This is no longer something that can be explained by luck. The other party's talent in holding lanterns can be said to be extremely terrifying.

He was born to do this.

"Let's pump the water. Let's deal with the young man first. Let's put his affairs on hold for now."

Qin Wen sighed: "I will issue an order to close all the upstream outlets and divert the water flow."

At dawn the next day, a large amount of equipment arrived, with an average of one truck carrying a large pump every ten meters.

The dam was filled with pumps. Ye An's order was given quickly and there was almost no delay. Pumping began three days later.

"Boom!"

Hundreds of pumps work together, with each pumping an average of thirty cubic meters of water per hour.

There are hundreds of them, and the water pumping capacity reaches nearly 20,000 cubic meters per hour.

The water storage capacity of the Yadongpo Reservoir was more than 23 million cubic meters at its peak, but now due to certain reasons upstream, the water storage capacity is more than 6 million cubic meters.

It is expected to take twelve days.

"Short down the time to ten days, add more manpower, replace the equipment, and send another batch of Ye An."

Qin Wen kept giving orders.

"Boss, there is one more thing." A secretary came over and said:
"Every day, the trucks we send to guard the bodies of the Qing people have accidents. Almost every day, a group of Ye'an people go and disappear the next day. Should we send someone to investigate?"

"No need to check, just reduce the number of staff and don't let ordinary people get close to it."

Qin Wen said in a cold tone: "Aren't they just some Ye An people? We can have as many as you want. Don't bother with such trivial matters."

How many do you want?

The secretary lowered his eyes and suppressed the fear in his heart: "Also, the chief of the criminal investigation team has left and said that he has nothing to do here."

"Ah."

"Some of the reporters from Zhongcheng wanted to come over, but we intercepted them."

"Ah."

"Boss, I want to take a long vacation. I'm pregnant."

"Destroy."

Qin Wen's voice was emotionless: "When you do the night ritual, the rules clearly state that you are not allowed to get pregnant."

The secretary gritted his teeth, biting his lower lip with his upper lip, and remained unmoved.

Qin Wen was speechless when he saw this. He was afraid of the man holding the lantern, but that didn't mean anyone could disobey him.

"Heh, Gu Panpan, I have to remind you that if you didn't do the night job, you would be in a nightclub right now, and there would be no chance of you getting pregnant."

Sen Han's words made Gu Panpan take a step back. Her tone became slightly stiffer: "I am your secretary. I just asked for a leave for a while. I am not quitting my job!"

"I'll come back to work after I give birth, okay?"

"Okay, why not?"

Qin Wen took out a bottle of water from his arms: "Drink it, and if you contribute a black fish, I'll let you take a leave."

Gu Panpan’s face suddenly turned pale.

"Why, didn't you do this to others before, but you don't dare to do it when it's your turn?"

Qin Wen waved his hand and said, "It's your choice to decide whether to go or not. Anyway, one is in the uterus and the other is in the stomach. They won't die from the surgery."

Gu Panpan gritted her teeth, grabbed the bottle and drank it all in one gulp!

Her face immediately turned pale and she covered her growing stomach in a cold sweat due to the pain.

"It seems that you love that boy very much. If you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?"

Qin Wen waved his hand: "Take her down for surgery."

"Yes."

Someone from Ye An came up immediately, which frightened the other secretary, and he stuttered when he came to report the task.

"Boss... this... this is the number of small black carps collected so far." A piece of paper was taken out, and Qin Wen took a quick look and saw only a dozen or so.

"How can you set up a trap with so few people? What do you do for a living?"

When he got angry, the secretary's legs went weak and he could hardly stand.

She cried and said, "There are only these few death row inmates these days. It's not enough."

"Can't you make it?" Qin Wen continued, "Or put up small advertisements, buy and sell crying, and then perform the operation after anesthesia. Just pay the money and it's over. They won't know about it."

The secretary didn't dare to refute and completed the task in detail.

…………

"Clap."

Inside the truck, Chen Ningan closed the hatch, dragging two Ye Ans and the entire truckload of big bluefish to summon the Mountain Mother's Light Realm.

He practically lived in the truck, constantly replenishing blood in his body and increasing his strength.

However, as the amount reaches a certain level, the increase in strength has become minimal.

It's still a few kilograms away from five thousand kilograms.

His estimation was not very accurate, but as his strength grew and he gained more control over his body, the accuracy was not much different.

He dragged one young man after another into the earthen platform, which kept shaking like a bottomless pit.

No matter how many came, they were all swallowed up. There were at least a hundred young people in the full truck.

When he had finished everything, two more pieces of paper came out from the platform.

After wind, fire, earth and wood, the next two are gold and water.

"Just these two?"

Chen Ning'an frowned. There was no way that more than a hundred young men were worth only this much.

"Gulu gulu..."

The Mountain Mother kept rolling, and this time she no longer vomited blood and air, but vomited out objects one by one.

There are gems, gold, unknown objects, incense, and red candles.

"I don't want these from you. Since you can't spit out the paper with words on it, then spit out the blank paper."

His requirements were not high, and in the end, sheet after sheet of white paper spewed out of it.

A rough count revealed that there were fifty of them.

In other words, two green men at each end?
Chen Ningan raised his hand and carved a wind symbol on it, ready to use.

This thing has no properties, but its effect is much better than the white paper on the market.

The blood and energy inside are dissipating very slowly, so it shouldn't be a problem to preserve it for a few months.

Chen Ning'an breathed a sigh of relief. This earthen platform was still somewhat useful.

He put the papers away. The number of young people was not as many as he had imagined, but there were still two trucks. Excluding what he needed himself, the estimated profit should be around 150 papers.

"wrong."

Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and drew wind and fire symbols inside the car.

To calculate the consumption of Qi and blood, one piece of paper is needed for two green people, and another piece of paper is needed to draw the talisman.

In other words, he needs three green men to exchange for one talisman.

The three truckloads of young men were able to draw about fifty talismans in the end.

You won’t know until you calculate it. This calculation made Chen Ning’an sigh.

"It's still not enough."

Don’t forget, he still has four cards of the Blood and Air Eating Method left that he hasn’t used, and the Calming Spirit Talisman is definitely a big one.

Every use of a blood-eating and air-eating talisman requires more mind-calming talismans, otherwise he will be lost.

He needed to save more of the paper spit out by the Mountain Mother to carve the calming talismans, and perhaps even fewer of these talismans would eventually take shape in his hands.

"No wonder the lantern is so powerful when it reaches the guiding level. Even Ye An is afraid of it."

Chen Ning'an understood clearly in his heart that it was so difficult for him to get promoted. It required a lot of resources, which could only be obtained through repeated accumulation of lanterns and risking life and death.

Not to mention others, in some ways, the Dharma King Anjiang who was killed by him was really remarkable.
