Chapter 44 Battle of wits (second update)
The second year of high school and Xu Da were discussing the custody rights of Da Tou. Wu Chen could hear it. He wanted to curse, but it hurt too much. He didn’t have any extra strength. He just looked forward to that. The beam of light must disappear as soon as possible so that he can slowly recover. He will ask Lao Hei later why he has a headache and buttocks every time a beam of light appears.
......
Wu Chen didn't know how long the pain lasted. Anyway, he felt that he was almost floating. The light beam finally disappeared, and the surroundings fell into darkness again.
Of course, in the eyes of the sophomores and Xu Da, the surroundings are always dark.
Wu Chen felt that the pain on his body was slowly relieving. He thought for a moment. The previous two times, he started to feel pain after the beam ended, and it only lasted for a short while. This time, it should have been from the first person who was sucked away by the beam. His soul began to hurt, and now that the beam was gone, he needed to endure it for a while longer.
The sophomore in high school tried to touch Wu Chen again. Wu Chen did not shout. The sophomore in high school subconsciously tested Wu Chen's breathing. Wu Chen said weakly: "Alive."
Wu Chen The sudden opening shocked both the sophomore and Xu Da.
The two squatted aside quietly, waiting for Wu Chen to make another sound.
After waiting for a while, Wu Chen didn't speak again, but it could be seen that Wu Chen's body was not shaking so much. Both of them breathed a sigh of relief. Before the discussion could begin, Wu Chen stood up directly.
He really stood up directly. He did not go through the process of sitting up and then standing up again, but stood up directly.
"What time is it now?" Wu Chen was confident and didn't look weak at all.
Xu Dayan made a long sound and said: "It should be daybreak, the ugly time is over."
"I will go in again, you go back to the carriage and wait for me." Wu Chen After speaking, he strode towards the entrance of the col.
……
Wu Chen thought that the scene in the mountain col would change due to the long period of light, so when he came in this time, he did not close his eyes and hold his head, but held his head high. However, it was just a glance. Wu Chen quickly squatted aside and held his head. Shouted: "Didn't I go out a lot? How can I return?" So much?"
The old voice said: "Only a small part was left, and the exit was sealed."
"Huh?" Wu Chen almost sealed it. He let go and raised his head, but at the last moment his reason made him tighten his arms.
Wu Chen’s heart is full of ocean. When the efforts are not proportional to the rewards, he will always be disappointed for a while before he can find a way to move on, or give up and go on another road to continue to experience hope and disappointment. , despair, hope, disappointment, despair...
Wu Chen had no choice.
"Just wait, I'll find a way!"
Wu Chen climbed out of the mountain col and looked around outside, but none of the ghosts he had found were there.
Wu Chen immediately understood that the reason why the exit was sealed was not only that the Yin Qi inside was weakened, but also that the ghosts outside had also entered the light, so he finally broke through. The little exit that was opened was sealed again by Yang Qi.
Those who were persistent and refused to leave, because of Wu Chen’s arrangement, knew that their great hatred and grievances would be resolved, so they followed into the light.
Wu Chen stomped his feet in remorse, but then he thought that he had not told them clearly how many days he would be helping. To show his sincerity, he asked Chen Zhong to arrest those who deserved to be arrested during the day, and Jiang The cases that have been tried in the past few years have been dug up and re-examined. Even though the case has not been overturned, the momentum is already there, and those wronged souls have finally settled their wishes.
The second year of high school students and Xu Da were standing beside the carriage. They saw Wu Chen stamping his feet in the moonlight, and both of them felt cold.
……
When we returned to the house, the sky was slightly bright.
Wu Chen returned to his room first and waited for Chen Zhong to get up and call him over before reporting the situation.
How can we get Chen Zhong to agree to give him a few more days? Even if Chen Zhong agreed, where would he find souls who didn't want to leave to help him break the formation?
Wu Chen sat blankly at the table, listening to Big Head's snoring, but he didn't feel irritated, at least it was a human voice.
The morning light outside the window slowly fell into the room. Wu Chen still maintained a dazed posture. His mind was full of thinking about how to fight Chen Zhong in a while. Suddenly an idea came to him: Although it was not easy to say, but That beam of light did take away a lot of souls. Does this mean that his mission is almost completed? Can he... go back?
Thinking of this, Wu Chen stood up excitedly. At this moment, the little eunuch knocked on the door.
......
Chen Zhonggang stood up and was served by the young eunuch after washing. He sat on the couch and watched the young eunuch busy setting out breakfast, with no anxious expression on his face.
Wu Chen stood aside with a bow, and did not show any signs of anxiety. He acted as if if you don't speak, I will never take the initiative to speak.
"What? Do you have to ask before I can tell you?" Chen Zhong looked at the little eunuch, his tone was not emotional, but he said it for Wu Chen to hear.
“I don’t know where to start without asking, Sir.”
“Then tell me whether last night was as you wished.”
“Tell the truth. , better than I imagined." Wu Chen has experience in reporting work progress.
"Oh? So I can arrange for people to enter the col tonight? Have you asked clearly about the agency?"
"I really don't know if I can enter tonight. Part of it came out last night. There is also a part in the mountain col. The Secretary also knows that there are too many in there! I can’t say whether the ones left behind will kill people, and they won’t tell me about the underground agencies. They have said so. When they can all leave, they will destroy all the underground institutions. I don't believe it. They are just souls. How can they do such a thing? Of course, it's hard to say. Some ghosts are like this. It's been a hundred years, and it's normal to have some abilities that ordinary people can't imagine."
"How come I heard that you said a lot, but it seemed like...you didn't say anything?" Chen Zhong looked over with a smile. Wu Chen.
“This is because it’s not the end yet. I’ve always been safe in my words. I won’t say anything for sure until I see the real chapter at the end. Unlike some people, I only have my feat last night. It's enough for them to brag for a few years, but what did I say? After a few days, when the ghosts in the col leave in groups, I can say, 'Sir, you can enter the col tonight, all the traps have been eliminated, just prepare enough carriages.'"
< br>"How many days to wait?" Chen Zhong slowly stopped smiling.
Wu Chen bowed and replied:
"If it weren't for chance, Si Zun and I might not be able to meet each other. Since we can meet, we are destined. I feel that I can help Si Zun." , I was busy all night last night and didn't sleep for a moment. I was also thinking, why did I work so hard? Although I miss the days of being a beggar, at least I am not busy or tired, but then again, since I have become this job, I naturally want to achieve something, and for no other reason, just because the Secretary trusts me, I also Try your best."
"I still didn't hear anything," Chen Zhong said with a gloomy face. (End of this chapter)
