Chapter 693: Powerless (3K, more updates)
"Isn't Elena accompanying my father outside the room?" Sanjar was shocked and asked hurriedly.
Eric ignored the crowd and said anxiously: "It is precisely because I am with my father that..."
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone was in an uproar.
"You mean..." Sanjar's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and his voice almost trembled.
Eric looked at Sanjar and wanted to sigh deeply, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and in the end he just nodded helplessly.
Sanjar's whole body suddenly stiffened, and his legs softened and he almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Eric had quick eyesight and quick hands to help him.
"Sanjar, it's no longer possible, let's go find the temple..." Eric said with a sad look on his face.
Now everyone understood.
"Guixiao...has been opened, right?" Zhong Youzhi spoke first, with a hint of strange expectation in his voice.
Most of the people present were from various religions brought in by Sanjar. Most of them knew very well what strange diseases meant, as well as what weirdness and weirdness meant.
So after hearing this sentence, some people inevitably showed panic on their faces, but more people showed uncontrollable excitement.
For these tricksters who wander in the dark, trickery is both a danger and a huge opportunity.
Eric pursed his lips, glanced across the crowd, and finally nodded heavily: "Yes, the mystery has unfolded... There is still a magic circle in the temple, so it has not been leaked yet."
He looked at Sanjar, finally gritted his teeth and prepared to run to the temple.
But Sanjar grabbed him.
"Are you really willing for our father to be purified like this?"
Eric struggled when he heard this.
After a moment of silence, he shook his head and sighed deeply: "I'm not willing to accept it...but I'm afraid that if I delay it any longer, something bigger will happen."
Sanjar's expression suddenly froze.
How could he not know? Just...
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but clenched my fists.
"Don't worry, your magic circle can still last for one night." A clear voice suddenly broke the heavy atmosphere at this time.
Everyone followed the sound and their eyes fell on Liu Sheng who was speaking.
She looked calm and said confidently: "I understand the magic circle, don't worry, my judgment will not be wrong."
After saying that, she took out a piece of jade from her sleeve and handed it to Taibai Sword Immortal, and then ordered: "Take it in with the flying sword and spin it around."
Taibai Sword Immortal didn't say much. He waved his sword gently, and the jade piece turned into a ray of light and flew into the house.
After a while, the jade piece returned, a deep red light appeared on the surface, and all seven small grids were dyed.
Liu Sheng glanced at it and said calmly: "Extremely dangerous level seven, still three steps away from disaster."
As soon as these words came out, the crowd of people watching suddenly burst into an uproar. They all stared at the jade piece in Liu Sheng's hand and talked endlessly.
"Can you detect strange energy like this?"
"It's more convenient than the instruments in the temple!"
"Real or fake? Is this kind of thing accurate?"
Liu Sheng just shrugged and said in a casual tone: "My strange energy detector is of course accurate."
No further argument was intended.
Zhong Youzhi, who had just arrived from Chang'an, knew exactly what this was.
"This is a strange energy detector." He said solemnly, looking at Liu Sheng with inquiry, but he could only see a woman with an ordinary appearance and no memory points.
Sanjar also knew the goods, his eyes lit up, and he asked in surprise: "Is this the strange gas detector produced by Qingyun Pavilion in Chang'an, Tang Dynasty?"
Liu Sheng also nodded, "I didn't expect you to have heard of Qingyun Pavilion."
Sanjar nodded with some emotion in his tone: "Of course I've heard of it. The recently popular Divine Book Mirage comes from Qingyun Pavilion. If it hadn't been for this time... something unexpected happened and I had to come back early, I would have thought I went to Chang'an to purchase a few units and brought them back to Mobei."
Although they were still dubious about this mysterious aura detector, most of the people present were naturally frightened when they heard the terrifying level.
Some people know that their strength is not enough to deal with it, so they choose to retreat quietly in order to survive; but there are also many people who are gearing up, with a bright light in their eyes, obviously this weird level is more to their liking.
Scattered away, there were less than ten people left in the end.
Some people advised their partners not to be greedy and take risks, otherwise they would be killed.
Seeing this situation, the light in Sanjar and Eric's eyes gradually dimmed.
"Is it true that my father...is really dying?" Sanjar clenched his fists.
Eric just shook his head.
"We can help you solve the weird things in your home, but your father can't save you." Zhong Youzhi said directly.
"It would be great if I could save your sister, what else do you want?"
"Act quickly, don't keep your sister waiting, her life will be lost."
These words made Sanjar's head gradually lower, "I have been running around all day, is it just a struggle..."
Eric smiled sadly and said nothing. At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded in the dark night of despair: "They can't say it, but we didn't say it."
It was that "Miss Ling".
Sanjar suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of disbelief.
Taibai Sword Immortal also nodded: "My granddaughter said it's okay, so it's okay."
But the people around them just laughed, obviously feeling that these two Tang people who came from nowhere were so arrogant.
Liu Sheng didn't care, and just continued: "The first thing you have to do now is to get all your family members out of the house."
After hearing this, Eric's face turned pale and he nodded quickly: "Understood!"
He hurried into the house and came out soon with his wife and two daughters.
The two little girls were held tightly in their arms by their parents. They both wore thick veils on their faces for fear of being contaminated with anything unclean.
Seeing everyone, they bowed cautiously and hid tightly behind their mother.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Liu Sheng glanced at it and thought to himself: [It seems that the Sanjar family is indeed not rich, and there are not even any servants in the house. 】
In the cold wind late at night, the little girls huddled in their parents' arms, shivering and yawning sleepily.
"Woo... I want to sleep..." One rubbed his eyes and his voice sounded milky.
But another little girl glared at her and said with a frown: "My grandma is almost dying, and you are still sleeping!"
When the little girl in front heard this, her mouth dropped and she was about to cry.
Taibai Sword Immortal chuckled lightly, stroking his beard and jokingly said: "Don't worry, your grandpa will get better soon."
The little girl's eyes widened when she heard this, stopped crying, and asked in surprise: "Really?"
"Really." Liu Sheng nodded slightly and ordered in a deep voice, "Take the children to the small wine shop opposite. It's cold, let them go in to warm up."
Sanjar felt a little relieved as he watched Eric hurriedly take his wife and daughter to the tavern, but when he thought of his father and sister at the door, his fragile heart started to rise again.
Mr. Taibai and his granddaughter said nothing and went straight to the door of the house.
"Keep an eye on it and don't let anyone break in at will." Zhong Youzhi lazily ordered with his arms folded behind his head, and then followed the two of them leisurely.
When the remaining six people saw this, seeing that someone was already taking the lead, they naturally no longer hesitated and hurriedly filed in.
……
"Father, can they... really save me?"
In the wine shop, the little girl who had been rubbing her eyes and feeling sleepy finally cheered up and looked up worriedly to ask Eric.
Eric hesitated: "Maybe..."
"It sounds like dad, you also think there is little hope. Why is uncle still so persistent?"
Eric shook his head, "Dinara, there are some things that you can't just give up."
"But even the priest said he couldn't be saved..." Dinara pouted again.
Her sister Celia hid in her mother's arms. After listening to her sister's words, she said excitedly: "The priest is dragging you on purpose! They are simply..."
But before he finished speaking, his mother Aaliya quickly reached out and covered her mouth.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Aaliyah lowered her voice and scolded, glancing around the wine shop warily.
Although there is no one here, and the real onlookers are all at the gate of the house, how can such treasonable words be spoken out at will?
Eric looked at this scene, sighed heavily, leaned against the table with his back, picked up the wine glass, raised his head and took a big sip.
When Aaliya saw this, she couldn't help but said angrily: "Are you still thinking about drinking at this time?"
"What can I do...seeing everything irreversible, it's better to get drunk." Eric lowered his eyes, his tone full of helplessness.
"Your brother hasn't given up yet! Why did you give up?" Aaliyah asked coldly.
Eric's brows jumped and he suddenly slapped the case: "That's because he hasn't experienced more than ten days of suffering like me!"
"You raise your hopes again and again, only to be shattered again and again. You don't understand what it feels like!" Eric's face was almost twisted with anger. "This is not your father, of course you don't understand!"
When Aaliya heard this, she sneered and retaliate mercilessly: "Look at you like this, you are just a replica of your mother!"
Eric was so angry at this statement that his thick eyebrows almost stood up.
"You have never met my grandma, so why do you talk about me like this, and why do you talk about grandma like this!"
Aaliyah didn't take it seriously. She picked up Dinara who was so frightened that she shrank into her arms. She still spoke calmly:
"You yourself always talk about how irritable your grandma is, and you always tell me not to be such a grandma, but what about you? You are that kind of grandma! You are not half as calm as your grandma!"
Eric was startled and looked down at his daughters huddled in his wife's arms with frightened expressions on their faces. He couldn't help but think of the scene when he was a child - at that time, he was like this, huddled in the corner with his knees in his arms.
But a father's love is like a mountain and he doesn't hold his child easily. He can only lick his wounds alone.
A sour emotion surged into his heart, his anger gradually extinguished, and his tone lowered: "Yes, I was wrong."
He lowered his eyes, hiding the fatigue under his eyes, and murmured in a low voice:
"I'm just...really tired."
