Chapter 9
Ah, the female anchor with a broken leg was yanked off balance by him, "Be gentle! What are you doing!"
In comparison, Xiao Zheng's side is much more thrilling
Xiao Zheng's entire body swayed slightly
10:56:59 ... ... 57
Sheng Lingyuan let out a soft "ah," and his expression suddenly became somewhat dazed. His gaze drifted out from the hazy mist, as if he were reminiscing about a distant past: "Hasn't it been a thousand years... I have some vague impressions. You must have been raised by someone since childhood, otherwise, why would such a naturally gifted spirit serve a mortal?"
What?
At that moment, the truck suddenly started. A field worker, who had somehow made his way to the front of the vehicle, abruptly grabbed one of the wheels. His hands transformed into a pair of bear paws, and with a loud roar, he yanked the several-ton minibus, causing it to shake violently.
Forty-five seconds later, Bi Chunsheng hoarsely shouted: "You have no strength left!"
The colleague on the phone lowered his voice: "Proceed forward, do not reveal any clues. I have already informed the placement point, our people are lying in wait at the entrance. Do not panic, we must not alert the enemy."
Every second that the second hand moves forward feels like a countdown to death
She sensed that something was amiss
As the silver bullet exploded, the entire body of the little mustached man was engulfed by the blinding silver light
Five, four
Sheng Lingyuan chuckled softly, and then the chains that bound him suddenly shattered. In an instant, a powerful energy erupted from his body, and the tiny ice shards condensed in the mist transformed into blades, fiercely striking in all directions
"Where in the world is there a god? Deities are merely the projections of human hopes." Sheng Lingyuan paused for a moment, and after a while, he softly said, "Me? I suppose I am just a human delusion... Ha, it's been so long, I can't remember."
At this moment, Bi Chunsheng raised his head and looked at him with a puzzled expression: "Is Xiao Li sick with a cold?"
Then, she busily helped several other people get off the car, whether intentionally or unintentionally, she kept blocking that little mustache.
Is it decided to sacrifice an ordinary employee who has stepped back from the front lines, in order to interrupt this frenzied and dark ritual
Xuanji's brain could not react in time, and instinctively, the person retreated to the corner of the wall
It is too late
Ping Qianru struggled to poke her head in just in time, and upon seeing this scene, she was so frightened that she knelt down: "Wait! Why is he still here! The sacrifice... the sacrifice and the *illustrated* book have failed, haven't they?!"
A colleague on the phone interrupted him: "Xiao Li, listen to me quietly."
"I am telling you to leave," Xuanji could no longer afford to be indirect, "If you are of no use, then do not hinder me here!"
However, the anticipated piercing of a thousand arrows did not come to pass
The few "adventurers" who illegally entered the Chiyuan Grand Canyon are currently on their way to a designated shelter, with Bi Chunsheng and the local bureau's Xiao Li responsible for taking care of them
Director Xiao, the child is alive, with stable vital signs, and is prepared to be sent into the hypothermic chamber for surgery
Xuanji had little strength left, her voice was very low, almost like a murmur. Sheng Lingyuan's speech was originally neither warm nor cold, and as the two engaged in conversation during the last moments before midnight, it instead appeared particularly calm and composed
"Oh dear, what did the elder sister say? As soon as you got in the car, she kept telling you to close the window, close the window, but you didn't listen! Now look what happened, didn't you get blown away? If you don't heed the advice of the elders, you'll pay the price!" Bi Chunsheng scolded him, "After you drop off these few people, hurry back and rest—how much farther do we have to go?"
The injured were all asleep in the back compartment, while Sister Bi Chunsheng quietly knitted beside them. Xiao Li rubbed his face vigorously, and with bleary eyes glanced at the caller ID: "Hello, Team Leader Zhang, I am almost at the relocation point with them, soon..."
In thirty seconds, the little mustached man also staggered noticeably. At that moment, Bi Chunsheng, who seemed to have no strength to fight back, suddenly curled himself up and forcefully slammed backward.
Xiao Zheng finally had nowhere to escape: "You all ... ... "
It is not possible, I cannot find the angle, the hostage is blocking him!
He exerted his last ounce of strength to lift Bi Chunsheng up
But his voice was so strained that, by the end, it actually broke.
Bi Chunsheng's glasses were knocked off, forcing him to tiptoe and look up. The little man with a mustache showed a fierce expression, and large patches of ritualistic markings began to appear on his bare neck and face. He lifted Bi Chunsheng entirely, shielding his own vital neck area, revealing only one frenzied eye.
But this chubby girl is completely oblivious, and she comforted him by saying: "Sister Bi has been working for nearly thirty years, and she is still in the safety department, now relegated to a secondary role. She is experienced and will definitely be fine! Stay steady, we can win.
The surroundings suddenly fell silent, and Sheng Lingyuan suddenly asked: "Are you from the Qingping Division?"
Shut up, get lost
In the pale light of the car headlights, he locked eyes with a pair of eyes— the little mustached leader in the back compartment had woken up at some point, and a pair of distinctly black and white eyes was staring at him, while beside him, Bi Chunsheng was still obliviously counting the knitting buttons on the yarn.
Ah, right away!" Xiao Li cleared his throat, simultaneously speaking to Team Leader Zhang on the phone, "There is one more intersection, and I can already see that building.
As soon as Xiao Li heard two sentences, he felt a sudden jolt. At that moment, a car coming from the opposite direction brushed past them, its headlights sweeping over. The young field intern, holding the phone, stiffly glanced at the rearview mirror.
A hand hooked onto his back, and he was ensnared within a dark wide sleeve, as those arrows formed of ice brushed past him, leaving behind a chilling aura of lethal intent
The iron chains bound around him trembled uncontrollably
At this moment, the headquarters building of the Bureau of Foreign Control was brightly lit, and in the headquarters conference room, all eyes were on the chief dispatcher, Xiao Zheng, as the heads of various regional branches awaited his orders
The glass in the hospital building shattered completely, and a massive black vortex rose from the sky, sweeping away all the faintly visible stars, with thick clouds overhead and thunder and lightning.
Bi Chunsheng fell to the ground, rolling away with the momentum, coughing so hard that he could hardly catch his breath—Xiao Huzi had a bullet gleaming with silver embedded in his forehead
At 10:56, both parties reached a stalemate
The field personnel have already taken action
Do not come over
Suddenly, a strange fragrance awakened his nearly frostbitten sense of smell—completely disconnected from the current situation, the scent was surprisingly clean, warm, and luxurious
I will strangle her ... ... strangle her! You all try ... ... try it!'' The man with the small mustache dragged Bi Chunsheng and began to pull her into the car. Bi Chunsheng struggled to open her mouth, about to say something, when the man with the small mustache suddenly twisted her neck, cutting off her airway. Bi Chunsheng's face turned suddenly red, her feet kicking violently in the air, and the man with the small mustache said ominously, ``I know what your special ability is, shut your mouth.''
It evokes the image of a palace, warm as spring, on a snowy night
At that moment, he suddenly heard a voice from outside the door: "Director Xuan! We have successfully killed the spellcaster!"
Bi Chunsheng pushed the last person off the bus, and only then did he seem to notice the little mustached man: "Hey, how come there's still one more? Hurry up and get down."
The little mustache, which was already at the end of its tether, suddenly lost its balance
Xiao Li's muscles were tensed to the limit, his teeth clenched tightly as he took hold of the female host and pulled her out as if he were snatching someone away
Speaking, she resembled a concerned old mother, taking out a box of wet wipes from her pocket and distributing them to the few people: "Wipe your faces, wake up from your nap, and don't catch a cold from the wind"
"Get off slowly," Bi Chunsheng was the first to stand up, grabbing the female anchor with a broken leg and pushing her out, saying, "Let those who are more seriously injured go first. Xiao Li, lend a hand and help her out."
Xuanji: "... ..."
ten fifty-eight and fifty seconds
At 10:52, the car slowly passed through the intersection and drove into the settlement point. Xiao Li gazed longingly at the few plainclothes officers stationed at the entrance, his sweaty palms making it nearly impossible for him to hold onto his phone
Proclamation
Xuanji: "You ... ... "
The thick, white fog outside surged through the broken window, causing the shards of glass to tremble and rattle, likely masking the sound of Ping Qian's footsteps as she departed.
At the scene, Xiao Li "thudded" to his knees on the ground—his special ability had always been rather useless, as he could only move small objects from a distance. Although he was assigned to fieldwork, he could only manage to do some auxiliary tasks locally
Bi Chunsheng had not yet caught his breath, lying on the ground unable to speak, while from a distance, someone gave him a thumbs up.
Ping Qianru said in confusion: "But you are here, where should I go, Director Xuan? Even Old Luo is waiting downstairs..."
Caught up!
The hour of the Rat has arrived
Bi Chunsheng's face showed no signs of concern as he gathered the yarn, simultaneously rousing the few "travelers": "Everyone wake up, we are almost there"
With less than fifteen minutes remaining, Wan Yixiao Zheng and his incompetent field agents have not captured the spellcaster. This is the front line facing the great demon, akin to guarding a bomb.
Ten, nine, eight
Ping Qianru replied candidly: "Director Xiao has notified us, you can rest assured"
At that moment, Bi Chunsheng's struggling hands suddenly curled two fingers, making a subtle gesture to someone outside the scene.
Director Xiao, there is one minute left
two
Xuanji's first reaction was: "Fat girl, go out and notify the external staff downstairs"
While speaking, she was about to jump out of the car, seemingly to make room for the little mustache.
As far as the eye can see, all the streetlights seem like candles swept away by a fierce wind, plunging into vast silence. The birds lurking in the canyon, unable to endure any longer, flee in droves into the sky. Xuanji's lips are stained with fine traces of blood, his back pressed against the wall, and he can no longer support himself, collapsing to the ground.
If she were a bit more clever, she should have known to take the opportunity to escape quickly.
Wait! Sister Bi has signaled that the target has already taken the bait
But he was unable to seize it—because in the next moment, he heard a soft laugh
The driver was driving steadily, while Xiao Li in the passenger seat was drowsy, not even opening his eyes when he received the call
Oh no
"What is innate and acquired? It has long fallen into decline," Xuanji replied vaguely, seemingly acquiescing to the notion of being "raised by others." She then countered, "You... one moment you say 'mortals,' and the next you say 'your demon clan,' so you are..."
At fifty-nine minutes and twenty seconds, the female anchor, who had originally been terrified and hiding behind the field staff, suddenly swayed twice and then collapsed to the ground. Soon after, several other "travelers" fell down one after another, losing consciousness.
Director Xiao, the on-site person in charge is seeking your approval on whether ... ...
At that moment, a knitting needle flew up out of nowhere and fiercely pierced the pulse point of the little mustached man, causing him to scream in agony
Xuanji emphasized the word "go out" in her statement. To prevent clichéd dialogues such as "You should leave quickly" or "No, I cannot leave you behind," she deliberately arranged a task for her as an excuse, aiming to ease her conscience a little in case she needed to escape at the last moment
As she spoke, the little mustached man's grip instinctively loosened, and then he let out a howl, his features contorted beyond recognition, desperately clutching Bi Chunsheng's throat.
In the blink of an eye, the little mustached man suddenly sensed something, his face revealing a fierce expression. At the moment Bi Chunsheng was about to jump down, he grabbed her by the nape of her neck, lifting the frail middle-aged woman up and dragging her into the car, tightly gripping her neck.
"Take it easy," Bi Chunsheng's gaze shot meaningfully from behind the flower glasses as he said to Xiao Li, "Don't panic"
Where is the sniper
Xiao Li broke out in a cold sweat
Is it ... ... uh ... ... is it ... ...
The chubby girl outside has indeed fallen silent
"The Qingping Division has been gone for more than seven hundred years." Xuanji felt a stir in her heart and asked in return, "Do you know about the Qingping Division?"
In an instant, everyone fell silent
Xiao Li was taken aback and secretly glanced at Bi Chunsheng, who lifted her eyelids nonchalantly and exchanged a glance with him
fifty-seven minutes and ten seconds, fifty-seven minutes and twenty seconds
Do not move!
Has midnight arrived? What is the current situation?
Stabilize your head! Contemporary youth can be said to have been ruined by games
Xuanji stumbled: "Why are you still here! Didn't you say not to be a hindrance here?"
In the blink of an eye, a thought suddenly flashed through: something is not quite right
I truly am ... ... " Sheng Lingyuan waved his sleeve, shaking off the ice from his hands, gently cradling this little demon who was probably not yet of age. He sighed and said, " I have overestimated you all. "
In the white mist and chains, the blood-stained white robe of the demon lord Sheng Lingyuan was instantly covered with incantations, densely packed with inscriptions that made him appear as if draped in a dark garment
Meanwhile, in Chiyuan Hospital, Xuanji, who had lost all sense of time, felt a gentle movement of her chains
Little Huzi let out a painful groan, grabbing Bi Chunsheng's hair, and the two began to wrestle in the cramped space
Xiao Li bit his tongue hard, trying to act as if nothing had happened: "Ah... okay, understood, Team Leader Zhang"
One
The female comrade from logistics is not an ordinary person, even the secret silver bullets cannot distinguish between the two of them
At the last moment, the little mustached man propped himself against the car door, struggling for his life
Xiao Li caught a glimpse as the plainclothes officers at the reception and placement point began to approach this way
Xiao Li widened his eyes at the pack of wet wipes that Bi Chunsheng handed to them
He paused for a moment, exhausted and gasping for breath, before he barely continued his speech: "What are you? A deity?"
Until a voice broke the silence of the headquarters of the Anomaly Control Bureau
This is the first time in his life that he has successfully attacked someone, and he is completely exhausted.
Xiao Li exclaimed, "Isn't there an 'Adamantine Bullet' that automatically dodges ordinary people?"
Everyone wants him to consider the bigger picture, but they also feel a sense of sorrow for the fallen rabbit and the grieving fox
Xiao Li has just started working, and for the first time on a mission, he is forced to share a vehicle with a vicious suspect. His calves have already begun to cramp, and he forced a smile at Bi Chunsheng that was more pitiful than crying
