Chapter 287 Urgent as a law
The Plague Doctor paid no attention to the situation on Lu Bai’s side and was still walking toward the crowd at an elegant and slow pace.
As more and more people are infected by the strange plague, no matter how frightened many people are in their hearts, their survival instinct still supports their bodies and they flee in the opposite direction from the plague doctor.
But more people did not flee.
It’s not that they are not afraid, but because they have information about the plague doctor.
This is the information that the operations department confirmed only after suffering extremely heavy casualties.
The moment you see the Plague Doctor, it actually means that you have been infected, and it is only a matter of time before the disease attacks.
The reason why it has not decayed like the people near the plague doctor is simply because the disease is still in the incubation period.
If you escape at this time, you will bring the plague to more people.
That makes no sense.
Rather than lingering and dying in excruciating pain, it is better to hope that the "Guardian Saint" can protect them under strange threats.
But strictly speaking, it is hard to say how much hope the public has for this kind of thing. It is more like trying to grasp the fragile straw in a drowning dilemma.
Looking at the whole scene, thousands of people crowded on the streets, looking expectantly at Lu Bai sitting cross-legged on the armored vehicle.
To be honest, Lu Bai thinks that he is emotionally stable.
But when I saw so many people looking at me with tearful eyes of hope, it was hard to say that I wasn't moved at all.
It is worth mentioning that despite the large number of people, the scene was much quieter than expected.
Beside the armored vehicle, the video equipment in observer Chen's hand was still faithfully recording everything in front of him.
Contrary to the dead silence of the scene, the barrage in the live broadcast room has reached its highest peak since the broadcast began.
Hundreds of millions of people continue to send comments in the live broadcast room, trying to vent their inner negative emotions.
“It’s over.”
"Who did it? How could they bring the plague doctor here?!"
"Master Lu...there's nothing we can do about it?"
"Hahaha, I already know, what kind of guardian?" Gods are all liars, and humans will be wiped out by weirdness sooner or later."
"Everyone in Keshan City, please be safe."

"(Hands together.emoji)"
......
"Master Lu, do you think this is okay?"
Captain Mao is holding a simple porcelain bowl in his hand , asked in a very quick tone.
Lu Bai was chanting a spell and did not respond. He simply nodded his head to indicate for him to continue the arrangement.
Compared with the cumbersome method of setting up an altar for an orthodox Taoist sect, the Maoshan Taoism provided by the death battle system is actually much simpler.
Because of this, it will not be too difficult for Captain Mao to help with the layout.
He first took out a small foldable table from the huge suitcase to use as an incense table, and then took out ink, cinnabar and a writing brush from a yellow cloth bag.
I didn’t have time to observe how delicate this small bowl was. I put the bowl directly on the incense table, poured in the ink and cinnabar, picked up the brush and stirred the cinnabar and ink evenly.
Immediately took out another almost identical porcelain bowl, poured the glutinous rice into it, and stopped immediately when the porcelain bowl was about one-third full.
Finally, lay out a mat, three pillars of incense, and four pieces of yellow paper.
After doing all this, Captain Mao stopped and stepped back, sweating profusely. He didn't know what the use of doing this was, and being in this situation would inevitably cause great psychological pressure.
Lu Bai also had no ink marks. After reciting the incantation, he came to the front of the incense table and sat down.
Light three sticks of sandalwood and insert them into the rice bowl. Burn three pieces of yellow paper randomly as if burning them. Move the middle finger of your right hand on the ground and recite the passage silently.
After reciting, he picked up the last piece of yellow paper between his index and middle fingers and threw it into the sky.
Then the yellow paper floated elegantly on the incense table like a psychic.
Lu Bai paused for a moment, then pointed at the porcelain bowl filled with cinnabar and ink, and tasted it like a dragonfly touching water.
Then facing the suspended yellow paper and drawing in the empty space, a faint golden light appeared on his fingertips, turning up and down.
The movements were completed in one go, and an extremely complex rune was drawn on the yellow paper in the blink of an eye.
The pen falls and the ghosts and spirits are shocked!
In an instant, the yellow paper bloomed with golden light, exuding a warm luster, and the fragrance of sandalwood overflowed.
The people who saw this scene felt inexplicably calm, and the panic and confusion caused by the appearance of the plague doctor were swept away.
Many people were stunned, and some even knelt down and shouted for Master Lu’s blessing.
Lu Bai was not distracted and read attentively: "The imperial edict is in the ocean, and the sun rises in the east. I give you a spiritual talisman to sweep away all the ominous things. I spit out the fire of the mountains from my mouth, and the light captured by the talisman's flying gate brings out strange things everywhere. Heaven..."
After reciting, he raised his finger and pointed towards the plague doctor in the distance.
Visually, the talisman seemed to suddenly enlarge and shroud the plague doctor.
Buzz~
At this moment, it seems that some kind of force is beating the bell, deafening and enlightening.
The crowd was in an uproar. Such a transcendent performance gave almost everyone present full confidence.
Unfortunately, the imagined scene of the Plague Doctor being executed on the spot under the talisman did not happen.
The talisman landed directly above the Plague Doctor. It was only in a stalemate for a moment, and then suddenly exploded.
The Plague Doctor acted as if nothing had happened, holding an oil lamp in one hand and patting twice on his black windbreaker that seemed to have been soaked in oil wax with the other hand.
"Interesting, can you do it again? Oh, I swear, this really makes me feel a little uncomfortable."
They watched Lu Bai prepare for a long time before finally The means used.
However, after all this effort, he only scratched the plague doctor's itch.
Under such an exaggerated performance by the plague doctor, the mood of the crowd who had been a little happy began to fall rapidly into the bottom.
Despair, deep despair, crawled into the hearts of everyone present like maggots on the tarsal bones.
Lv Bai was not too disappointed with this situation.
Having learned from the past, I am also mentally prepared for the possibility that Maoshan Taoism cannot have an effect on the plague doctor.
"Then try this."
Lu Bai leaned over and took out another piece of yellow paper from the yellow cloth bag, and followed the same pattern.
Of course, those who are more careful can notice it.
This time, the process of drawing the talisman took a little longer than the last time.
"The sky and the earth are thundering, and all methods are shaking. I follow the order of Maoshan Patriarch and ask True Lord Sanmao to come. Using the talisman as a guarantee and the incense as a guide, I will attack this place with thunder and bombard it quickly..."
Lu Bai hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and bit his fingertip, squeezed out a drop of blood and flicked it onto the talisman floating in front of him.
He breathed a long sigh of relief and pointed at the plague doctor in the distance: "...Emergency is like a law."
