Yu Guo pressed Tongguan's hot forehead with his left hand, and combed his short hair with an inconspicuous wooden comb in his right hand.
When the effect of the sinful object came into effect, Tongguan's originally pale face gradually turned rosy.
He was like a restless child, very resistant to this "healing ritual", so he kept struggling.
Chang Nian and Yu Guo held him down and forcibly healed him.
Slowly, Tongguan's struggle became less and less intense, and his body temperature gradually dropped.
At the same time, Yu Guo's complexion began to deteriorate, and as he combed his hair more and more often, he began to cough.
The healing effect of the wooden comb is actually at the expense of the user's vitality, which is a bit like tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall.
But fortunately, this is not a serious injury involving severed limbs and hands. It is just a treatment for the mental state, and the cost will be much smaller.
After about five or six minutes, Yu Guo breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew his hands, wiped the sweat from his face, and said softly:
"No problem."
Little Qianduye hurried forward to ask how he was doing.
Yu Guo just waved his hand and responded with a smile:
"Fortunately, his injury is not serious. I just have a cold, so it's okay."
Chang Nian thanked him first, then quickly helped Tongguan up from the bed and asked in a low voice.
Tongguan slowly opened his eyes. Although he was still a little weak, the light in his eyes indicated that he was fine.
"It's okay, thanks to Yu Guo..."
Yu Guo just smiled and said nothing.
Fang Shenyan leaned against the door and asked in a deep voice after seeing that Tongguan was fine:
"What happened to you during your operations there? Why did you look for Ji Li when you came back?"
Tongguan looked at Chang Nian, finally fumbled in his pocket, took out a note, and handed it to Yu Guo.
Yu Guo held it in his hand suspiciously, opened it and felt even more confused, and passed it to others in the room.
After Fang Shenyan saw the message on the note, he read it subconsciously:
"Ask Ji Li to come see me..."
He frowned and glanced at Tongguan, feeling that something was not quite right, so he asked:
"Aren't you and the other store managers going to investigate the alien forces? How could you be related to Ji Li?"
Tongguan picked up the water glass on the cabinet and took a sip, then recounted what happened in the plan with a faint look in his eyes.
"We, a group of eleven people, were stationed in two groups at the sixth and eighth branches respectively.
The first two days had been calm, but last night, ghosts were detected at the sixth and eighth branches at the same time.
Our plan was to wait for the ghosts to appear, then use Xue Tinghai's painting as a prison and my space map to seal off the respective ghosts.
Then it was handed over to Luo Xian, allowing her to communicate with the ghosts in nightmares to find out the origin of each other.
But no one expected that our plan was actually fundamentally wrong.
Because when we ambush the ghosts, we also gave them the opportunity to kill me and other store managers..."
Yu Guo was stunned for a moment, and he asked in surprise:
"The eleven of you are basically the ones with top-notch criminal items. Will you be punished?"
Tongguan sighed and said melancholy:
"The alien forces are far more terrifying than we imagined. Not to mention us store clerks, even Tianhai has given in to them to a certain extent.
At first I wanted to proceed as planned, but found that there was no chance to do it.
The ghost I faced directly ignored the space map and launched an endless pursuit of us.
In desperation, I had no choice but to hide in the eighth branch, and it was there that I managed to save my life. ”
Although Tongguan simply recounted the incident, everyone could actually hear the crisis behind it. Today's space map is already a double evil object of space and soul, but it is actually ineffective against that ghost.
Chang Nian held his hand nervously and asked in a low voice:
"Then since you escaped, how did you get injured? Where did this note come from?"
A lingering fear appeared on Tongguan's face. He lit a cigarette and said quietly:
"Our eighth branch failed, but at the sixth branch, Luo Xian, Xue Tinghai and Li Guanqi gathered together, and they were stronger than us.
So despite the emergency, they decided to give it a try.
The three evil objects of nightmare, painted ground as a prison, and chessboard were released at the same time, and they were indeed interconnected for half a second.
And it was their move that affected the roots of the alien power.
Even the people left behind in our eighth branch were all pulled into the dream by the source of the alien ghost borrowing Luo Xian's nightmare.
At that time, I saw a transparent shadow and it put a note in my hand. ”
Fang Shenyan walked slowly from the door, frowned at him and asked:
"Are you crazy just because you took one look at that transparent shadow?"
Tongguan nodded heavily and replied without any hesitation:
"Yes, I just took one look at it and my heart broke.
The most important thing is that I still theoretically existed inside the Eighth Branch at that time. ”
The strength of the alien forces has once again reached a shocking height.
It was actually able to snatch a clerk out of a branch. Fortunately, it had no intention of killing him, otherwise this ability would be unimaginable.
"Tianhai has really become weak. There were never so many messes in the Eleventh Branch.
But now, we know for sure that it really doesn't work anymore.
Perhaps it was once the master of Shanming City, but now it is a seriously ill lion, attracting the attention of a pack of wolves. ”
Fang Shenyan put the note on the bedside table and whispered:
"If the foreign ghost force is an organization that is evenly matched with Tianhai.
So why did it ask Ji Li to see its origin? ”
This room is filled with very important people from the Seventh Branch. They are basically all senior clerks who have worked their way from the very beginning to today.
Although both Fang Shenyan and Mei Sheng were close to Ji Li, Tongguan felt there was no need to hide it and said cryptically:
"Ji Li's identity is very unusual. He has a deep connection with Tianhai."
No one picks up on this sentence anymore.
Only the cigarette in Tongguan's hand was still burning slowly in the room, emitting a pungent smell.
After a long while, Fang Shenyan glanced at Little Qianduye and left the scene first. Before that, he said:
"What happens to the rites of the season and what happens to the sky and the sea has nothing to do with me."
Following closely behind was Mei Sheng, who seemed to be just here to listen, not interrupting everyone's conversation and turning around to leave when the time was right.
Little Qianduye lowered her head, not looking at him, but just fiddling with the threads on her clothes.
After Fang Shenyan left, she said softly:
"Ji Li went to the moat to see a ghost. I was worried that something would happen to him.
Because of these eyes, I can sense some things that are not easy to detect. Ji Li is very important to the Seventh Branch. He cannot die. ”
Yu Guo glanced at her helplessly and was about to speak.
A cold and mechanical voice suddenly sounded, interrupting his unspoken consolation.
"Mr. Ji will return today, you don't have to worry."
Everyone raised their heads and looked in the direction of the roof. They all recognized the owner of the voice. They looked at each other for a moment, not knowing what to say.
