Chapter 10, Luo Pingfu is reborn

I had seen the shirtless Ma Quandan several times in the dormitory corridor before, but this time I noticed that he had many dark blue tattoos on his body, densely packed and extremely intricate. On his chest, there was something I was very familiar with.

Officer Lin propped herself against the wall and got up. Upon seeing me, she inquired about my condition. I told her I was fine, and then she asked about the details of the entire incident involving Luo Ping.

Could it be that the person who was just smashing the iron door outside the morgue is him

In other words, he is possessed just like Officer Lin

Luoping

Indeed, if it were not for Officer Lin's presence, perhaps they would not have paid any attention to me at all

Ma Quandan said with a smile that seemed to be both a smile and not a smile, "What do you think?"

Taking a deep breath, I opened my eyes, only to see that the horse named Quan Dan, who had just been gripping me tightly, now had his entire face entangled with several red threads, crisscrossing in all directions, resembling a fishing net, which had tightened around him completely

Although I know this is about saving a life, seeing him touch Officer Lin's face and shoulders makes me feel a pang of jealousy

A few seconds later, I felt a tearing pain in my lungs, unable to draw in a single breath, my brain lacking oxygen, and my eyes rolling upwards

This narrow escape left me somewhat bewildered, but I soon realized that the reason this horse-faced man did not strangle me was not because he had a change of heart midway, but because someone had appeared behind him

The reason he brought us to this morgue was actually to lure the snake out of its hole

After Luo Ping finished teaching me a lesson, he turned around, walked to the door, squatted down, and took out a white porcelain bottle from his waist. He carefully shook out a yellow pill, pried open Officer Lin's red lips, and placed it inside. Then, he wiped his hands, rubbed Lin's face a couple of times, and patted it repeatedly, murmuring incessantly

I wanted to take advantage of the chaos and escape, but I was caught by the other party.

Am I going to die?

The appearance of Ma Quandan took me completely by surprise, and I instinctively took a step back, only to find myself pressed against the wall.

Although Ma Quandan was also hospitalized, due to his private relationship with the second boss, he had been staying in a private room in the hospital's VIP ward, completely separate from us. Therefore, I did not expect him to appear here.

Ma Quandan let out a cold smile and said softly, "Had I known it would come to this, why did I bother in the first place"

I do not know what happened afterward, but after two days, I found that my condition began to improve, the high fever subsided, and I felt a bit more energetic. There were no longer those chaotic blood-red death talismans under the hospital bed

A guy whom I originally thought was already dead

Ma Quandan gazed at me for quite a while, shook his head, and said: "I was blind before and failed to see your peculiarities. Now that I have caught you, how could I possibly let you off easily?"

Luo Ping said triumphantly: "Rest assured, when I take action, how could it possibly not be resolved? These recent deaths are all related to this guy—actually, it is connected to the spiritual pattern on him. Once we find the key point, everything will be easily resolved"

The two sides were locked in a fierce contest, and after a few seconds, Luo Ping let out a loud shout. Suddenly, all of Ma Quandan's clothes tore apart, revealing a well-toned physique.

The horse, bound by the red thread, has a somewhat distorted expression, and surprisingly, wisps of blue smoke are rising from the red thread and the book.

This scene is somewhat reminiscent of being in a sauna

He saved me, but it was merely to please Officer Lin

However, soon I could no longer feel the strength transmitted from that hand

Upon entering the morgue, he utilized a technique of evasion to eliminate the target, avoiding detection, and then used us as bait to draw out various peculiarities that had been lurking in the shadows, ultimately revealing himself to capture them all at once

Noticing that I had not responded, Ma Quandan took a step closer and ominously said to me, "Do you think you can escape?"

I instinctively glanced at Ma Quandan's hands and found them drenched in blood, with his white knuckles exposed, which further confirmed that he was indeed the one who had been banging on the door outside the morgue just moments ago

His statement can be considered an acknowledgment

Is everything over

Everything began to improve; however, on the day before I was scheduled to be discharged, the doctor called me into the office after completing a full body examination.

As I walked into the gatehouse, Ma Quandan unexpectedly smiled at me and said, "Where do you think you're running off to?"

Fortunately, after a short while, Officer Lin woke up. Upon seeing Luo Ping, he instinctively took a step back, then looked around and asked, "What is the current situation?"

As I watched the other party stride towards me, I knew that pleading for mercy would be futile. I reached out, grabbed the thermos used by the doorman for tea, and swung it towards the other person's head.

In fact, Officer Lin is aware of part of Luo Ping's plan, so I am the most foolish one here, feeling anxious and terrified throughout, almost losing my life.

His hands were so cold, like ice cubes. I grabbed him by the neck and struggled with all my might, but as a result, I was thrown to the ground, my back making intimate contact with the shards of glass from the recently shattered television screen, a wave of excruciating pain surged through me, while Ma Quandan cackled and suddenly pinned me down.

He glanced at Officer Lin, who was slumped on the ground by the door, then turned back, grabbing my collar and leaning close to my ear, speaking each word clearly: "Kid, listen carefully, to be honest, if it weren't for Xue'er, a guy like you wouldn't even be worth a glance from me, no need to thank me; also, I warn you, I saw you holding Xue'er's hand just now, kid, keep your dirty thoughts to yourself, a toad dreaming of eating swan meat? Stop thinking so much..." Stop thinking so much...

I find it utterly baffling, feeling somewhat at a loss, while the horse named Quan Dan that I am riding seems unwilling to surrender easily, struggling desperately, yet it is firmly ensnared by the red rope, unable to break free no matter what.

Had I known that today would end up like this, I would have spent that little bit of money for the toll, even if I had to borrow it on that day

He asked me with a serious expression if any family members were nearby

Thinking of this, I felt disheartened. Although I was filled with questions, I did not dare to ask even half a sentence, for fear that this person would turn hostile and leave me in a state of embarrassment.

The other party saved my life, and I am naturally extremely grateful. However, in response to my thanks, Luo Ping appeared somewhat indifferent.

The originally astonishingly strong horse, Quan Dan, fell to the ground with a thud, lying down beside me. After catching his breath, Luo Ping looked down at me from a height and coldly asked, "Are you alright?"

After a considerable amount of time, Luo Ping suddenly stood up and shouted loudly.

This voice is extremely hoarse, resembling the sound produced by sandpaper rubbing against glass, which is quite unpleasant. Moreover, as soon as I heard it, I knew that it was definitely not the voice of Ma Quandan.

However, since others have saved me, I truly dare not express any emotions. Moreover, there are many details that Luo Ping simply could not be bothered to explain to us; he only informed us that the matter is basically nearing resolution. As for how to investigate the situation in Mangshan, that will depend on the considerations of Officer Lin and his superiors.

Although I do not know exactly what happened, I am certain that Luo Ping would not harm my life. I hurriedly pushed Ma Quandan away, stood up, and smiled gratefully at him, saying: "I am fine, I am fine, thank you, Master Luo..."

I was initially filled with gratitude towards this man, but a wave of contemptuous mockery from him extinguished all my heartfelt thoughts.

Due to insufficient oxygen, my vision became blurred. Just when I thought I was about to die, suddenly, the hand gripping my neck seemed to lighten a bit

This fellow not only did not die, but also used that magical red thread to control Ma Quandan

This fellow is still draped in a white sheet from the morgue, yet his face is no longer marred by the repulsive marks of death; instead, it is radiant with a healthy glow. Two red threads hang from his hands, and he mutters incantations under his breath

If that is the case, how could I possibly end up in this situation

This thing has appeared countless times in my nightmares

It is the statue we saw earlier at the dilapidated temple near Mangshan, not to mention anything else, just those dark eyes, which are truly lifelike

Thinking of this, all I want to do is cry

He is almost indistinguishable from an ordinary person; the only difference lies in his pair of eyes, which resemble those of a rat—malicious and fierce, as if they could pounce at any moment to take a bite out of you.

Thinking of this, I feel even more uncomfortable in my heart

I almost wanted to kneel down and beg the other party to spare me. However, recalling that a death talisman had already been drawn under my bed, and knowing that the other party was someone who could be ruthless and merciless, I estimated that they would not be easily swayed. Thus, I pleaded, "Master, could you at least draw a talisman for me, to give me a way out?"

At this moment, Luo Ping began to recount everything that had just happened to us

The plastic thermos was forcefully smashed onto Ma Quandan's head, instantly shattering the inner flask and dousing him with hot water.

Before long, about ten people surged into the morgue, and I was carried away. Just before leaving, I caught a glimpse of Officer Lin chatting and laughing with Luo Ping, seemingly completely unaware of my presence

What does it have to do with me

I felt my knees go weak, barely able to support myself against the wall. I said to him, "Master, I know I was wrong. Last time, I truly didn't bring any money. If you let me go this time, I will, even if it means losing everything, offer several sticks of incense at your temple!"

That guy was blocking the door, and naturally, I couldn't escape. Remembering how he had just smashed an iron door to pieces, I knew that no matter how much I resisted, I couldn't get away. With this thought, I felt a sense of relief, and my tension diminished significantly. I asked him, "Why do you want to harm me?"

His mouth and nose exuded a nauseating sour stench, and he murmured: "Ghostly mother, you are indeed a precious gem..."

When I looked over at him, that guy also lowered his head to look at me

Through the conversation between the two individuals, I discovered a situation

Hello!

Black saliva dripped from Ma Quandan's mouth, splattering all over my face. I struggled with all my might, but was firmly held down, with a hand gripping my neck, rendering me unable to move
