The metaphysical mother returns, and the villain son stands at attention

Chapter 240 is also good

Lin Xiao looked at Gu Qingyin's strange expression and thought she was scared. He immediately raised his chin, handed the exorcist talisman in his hand forward, and asked provocatively: "Do you dare?"

Gu Qingyin didn't answer, but asked curiously: "Where did you buy it? How much did it cost?"

Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously answered: "One hundred thousand..." After saying that, he realized that there was no need to respond, and his face immediately darkened, "Don't change the subject!"

Gu Qingyin shook her head and said, "It's really evil." A low-level ghost-exorcising talisman would be good if it could be sold for 50,000 yuan, because its efficacy was limited and it mainly served as a deterrent, without any actual killing power. To be more precise, it would exclude newly-dead ghosts, but at most it would cause minor injuries.

Huo Xingchen had sold many talismans before, and was very familiar with the market for talismans. At this moment, he nodded his head with a serious look on his face, and agreed, "It's a big loss."

Lin Xiao was confused.

According to her imagination, shouldn't Gu Qingyin, a wild ghost, be instinctively afraid when seeing the talisman? What is the situation now?
Sheng Wan sneered and glanced at Zhou Jingchuan, as if to say: This is your vision, mistaking fish eyes for pearls.

Zhou Jingchuan sighed secretly and pinched his brows. What on earth was he thinking at that time? Why did he believe Lin Xiao's nonsense? The latter's performance was not very smart at all, and even a little neurotic.

At this moment, Gu Qingyin stepped forward and took the ghost-exorcising talisman that Lin Xiao had been holding high.

Lin Xiao was overjoyed, but before she could smile, she saw Gu Qingyin skillfully take apart the talisman that was folded into a triangle.

The talisman had no reaction and Gu Qingyin was fine.

Lin Xiao's eyes widened in disbelief. How could this happen? Could the talisman be fake?

Coincidentally, Gu Qingyin commented with disdain, "What a shoddy thing." Then he crumpled up the unfolded talisman and casually stuffed it into his pocket, thinking of finding a trash can to throw it away later.

Protecting the environment is everyone's responsibility.

Lin Xiao was instantly certain that the talisman was indeed fake! She spent a full 100,000 yuan! She actually bought a fake talisman! Lin Xiao's expression changed repeatedly, and then she turned around and left. She wanted to go talk to the boss!

Seeing that the person had left, Zhou Jingchuan did not stop him. Sheng Wan even called the property management directly and put Lin Xiao on the blacklist. From now on, she would never be able to enter this community again, no matter who took her.

The phone call ended and the hallway fell silent again.

Zhou Jingchuan took a deep breath and broke the silence first, "Sorry."

Gu Qingyin and Sheng Wan rolled their eyes at the same time, and the latter said bluntly, "Don't apologize for things in the future. There's no point in saying it after the fact."

Zhou Jingchuan pursed his lips and said nothing.

Sheng Wan glared at him with a look of disappointment, then turned to look at Gu Qingyin and sighed, "It would be so nice if you were my biological daughter."

Gu Qingyin couldn't help but laugh, "Our relationship is no worse than that of a biological mother and son. This is a rare fate."

Sheng Wan also smiled, "You're right. Come on, godmother will take you home. I don't want to stay at home with such a bad thing." She held Gu Qingyin with one hand and Huo Xingchen with the other, and drove them away coldly, "You'd better leave before I come back, don't force me to use force."

Zhou Jingchuan:......

Sheng Wan drove herself to send Gu Qingyin and Huo Xingchen back home, and before leaving she apologized for Zhou Jingchuan's actions.

Gu Qingyin watched Sheng Wan's car leave and sighed, "How pitiful are the parents in the world..."

Huo Xingchen didn't dare to say anything. He had never been a worry-free person before. After Sheng Wan walked away, Gu Qingyin took another taxi and took Huo Xingchen back to Dongfang Lingjun's villa. They didn't talk for the rest of the night.

When I went downstairs the next day, everyone was back.

After dinner, the group took a car to the airport. After a whole day of travel, they finally arrived at the foot of Ailao Mountain at sunset.

"Shall we go into the mountain now? Or wait until daybreak?" Zhang Qiuyan was a little scared. She had heard of the great name of Ailao Mountain for a long time. Before this, she had never thought that one day she would go into Ailao Mountain.

"Not much of a difference." Huo Xingchen said in a stern voice, "The miasma in the forest will be more dense during the day, and there will be more predators at night."

Zhang Qiuyan was surprised at his knowledge, but did not ask any further questions. The current situation was not suitable for casual chatting.

"Just go in." Dongfang Lingjun said, "We only have a limited amount of antidotes, so we'll save as much as we can."

Gu Qingyin wanted to say that her talisman could also detoxify, but seeing that no one was interested in taking a break, she didn't mention it. After all, everyone was so active to help her, and it didn't make sense for her to hold them back. No one was idle, and if they finished their work here earlier, they could get back on track earlier.

Before entering the forest, Dongfang Lingjun distributed glasses and gas masks to everyone, all of which had been specially treated.

Wearing the glasses has a similar effect to the Yin-Yang vision, and can distinguish things in the world of the living and the world of the dead in a dark environment. Things in the world of the living are red and orange, and things in the world of the dead are white and blue. With these glasses, if you are attacked, you can quickly determine what method to use to defend or counterattack.

The mask is inlaid with a small filtering array that can filter out toxic substances in the air and minimize the risk of poisoning.

Although the miasma in the forest at night was negligible, everyone still wore masks. The smell in the deep mountains and forests was really not good.

Everyone entered the mountain in a column. Gu Qingyin held Huo Xingchen and walked in front to show the way. Huo Yunjing followed behind to protect the mother and son. Dongfang Lingjun and Zhang Qiuyan, whose fighting ability was not very strong, were in the middle. Gu Ziqian was responsible for covering the rear.

When they first entered the mountain, the surroundings were still very safe. In addition, the sun had just set, and many animals that came out at night had not yet appeared, so they walked very smoothly.

Around eight o'clock in the evening, there began to be more movement in the forest. Various predators appeared, looking for prey to fill their stomachs.

"Be careful." Huo Yunjing reminded in a low voice, "There are more things around." Not only animals, but also some lonely souls.

These things are very hostile and try to pull any creature that passes by into the abyss and turn them into their own kind.

Gu Qingyin nodded and asked Huo Xingchen in her arms, "How long is it until the first dangerous point?"

Huo Xingchen estimated their speed, compared it with the previous time, and responded cautiously: "Conservatively speaking, it will take another two hours. But there are some minor dangers on the road, so don't take it lightly."

Gu Qingyin responded, lowered her head and kissed his cheek, "If you feel tired, tell mom and we can take a rest."

Huo Xingchen shook his head, "I'm not tired."

With a silent sigh, Gu Qingyin held Huo Xingchen's hand even tighter.

Huo Yunjing, who was standing behind the two of them, was a little dazed when he saw this. Will his wife and children be like this in the future?

A life with a loving mother and filial children seems not bad.
