Chapter 17: 17.1

The ghost exorcist became extremely embarrassed, originally he wanted to look at the face of the man in the corner out of professional ethics, but Jing Xian gave him a look, as if pierced by a cold sharp knife, he shivered involuntarily, and dared not speak again.

He didn’t know what he was afraid of, he just felt that the man in front of him was extremely scary. It’s natural for creatures to tend to the beneficial side and avoid harmful things, and now, his intuition made him step back half a step, and stammered, “I, I just……..”

He retreated in a panic, and even closed the door firmly.

The lights in the corridor were very bright. He walked a few steps, as if returning to the world, and slowly recovered.

………That situation just now is wrong.

The ghost exorcist turned his head sharply. 

There is definitely a problem with that unreasonable fear!!

He squeezed a talisman and rushed back, kicking the door open. The metal door screamed harshly, and the light flooded into the room again, however, it was already empty. He immediately shouted, “I have a situation here!”

At the same time.

Lu Yingjiu had Jing Xian’s black coat wrapped around his head, and only his pair of eyes were exposed. In front of him….was a group of trembling “men”.

This was the first private room on the second floor which had just been checked a while ago. It’s estimated that the ghost exorcist wouldn’t be back anytime soon and now left inside were these “men”.

They sneaked over just now, both of them, one with his face tightly covered, and the other who definitely didn’t look like a good person…….while the latter’s coat was still on the former’s head.

How dangerous did they look? It was almost like stamping to their faces the words outlaw lunatics.

Originally, these “men” wanted to call for help, but they were all stupefied by Jing Xian and dared not speak out. Jing Xian also casually tore off the clothes of an unlucky guy, and put them on himself, blocking everyone’s eyes.

However, in the dead silence, one person looked at Jing Xian and murmured, “So handsome.”

“That’s right, look at that face, that leg, that figure, the best one, tsk tsk tsk.” 

“Care to leave contact information. “

“Can this big brother do me right here? There are so many people outside, it’s good stimulation.”

Lu Yingjiu held up his forehead.

This Lane East bar is really a sinister place in various senses.

Accompanied by this sound, the locked window of the private room was pushed open by Jing Xian. The fresh air rushed over, and below, not one exorcist was seen, however–

There was a whistling wind, it blew Lu Yingjiu’s hair, and a touch of emerald green slipped silently from outside the window. It’s like a grotesque scene in a dream. The green was flowing like a long river, extremely gorgeous, and brighter than any gemstones. Light golden color fell into it, and it shone with thousands of brilliance.

With a blank expression on his face, Lu Yingjiu took out two talisman papers and patted one on himself and Jing Xian respectively.

At the same time, on that green, an eye suddenly opened!

The eye was the size of a human head, it was golden, and it kept on turning to look inside the room. Not just that, the wind also blew stronger, and the green flowed faster, and countless eyes could be seen passing by outside the window!

It knew that there was something abnormal in this room, but because of Lu Yingjiu’s talisman, it couldn’t find anything.

As the others couldn’t see this scene, they simply felt that something was weird.

“Why is the wind suddenly so strong?”

“It’s so cold…..”

It wasn’t until the last touch of that green disappeared that everything returned to normal. When Lu Yingjiu looked outside, a huge peacock was slowly hovering above the bar, its tail feathers were like a green waterfall, shining brightly and extremely gorgeous.

It was this thing that had just flown past the window, the every eye spot on its tail feathers was turning, and the golden pupils took everything under these eyes.

The Peacock Deity the Chu family formed a contract with, it was very suitable for large-scale searches.

Although anyone from the Chu family could invite it, at this level, the one who did it must be Chu Banyang.

Taking advantage of the Peacock Deity circling to the other side, Jing Xian jumped out with one hand propped on the window sill, landed firmly, turned around, and stretched out his hand towards Lu Yingjiu.

This was obviously an action to catch him.

This was the second floor, there was no need for others to catch Lu Yingjiu–even if it was the fifth or sixth floor, he would still have dared to jump with a piece of talisman paper. 

As they just went through the utility room and what happened back then, when he looked at Jing Xian’s embrace, he felt an inexplicable subtlety in his heart.

This subtlety only lasted less than half a second before he stepped on the window sill and jumped out.

Jing Xian caught him firmly below.

Two minutes later, the two of them had reached the end of the street and turned a corner. There were no cars on the road, and only a group of exorcists were spread out on the road far away, starting various searches, fortunately they walked fast.

Their Honda was parked at the main entrance of the bar, and now they couldn’t get it. The registered name of that car was not Li Yingjiu’s either—in a sense, he still had a bit of criminal talent.

Lu Yingjiu was about to go further away and hail a taxi, when suddenly a heavy weight fell on his shoulder, as Jing Xian held him down.

Lu Yingjiu: “…..Let’s go a little farther and hail a taxi.”

“No need.” Jing Xian’s eyes suddenly turned bright, “I asked a friend to send a car over.”

Lu Yingjiu:”?”

He said, “If your friend becomes involved in this matter, it’s not very good.”

“No.” Jing Xian’s tone was firm, “It’s okay with him, we’ll just stay where we are and wait for him to bring the car over.”

He pulled Lu Yingjiu into a corner to settle there, dialed a number, and said in a low voice, “Hey, Old Hei, I heard from Old Bai that you bought a car worth almost 2 million?”

After Bai Wuchang mentioned this to him, he never forgot.

(t/n Bai Wuchang- White Impermanence. Characterized by sticking out his long red tongue all the time, with a wry smile on his face, with a hint of evil charm on his face, sometimes showing a terrifying face, wearing a white hat and white clothes.)

On the other end of the phone, the voice was a bit dazed, as if just waking up, “Oh, you, who are you?”

Jing Xian: “……..” 

He wanted to kill ghosts for a moment, then looked back at Lu Yingjiu, “I am your…….I am your boss. “

Hei Wuchang reacted to the word “boss” for a long time before saying, “Oh!”

(Hei Wuchang- Black Impermanence. Characterized by a hideous face, a black hat, black clothes, with a ferocious expression, glaring eyes, and black and blue complexion. See additional notes at the last part.)

“Hurry up and drive the car here.”

“But……” 

“No buts, hurry up.”

The ghost world was rich in all kinds of precious ores, and it was priceless to sell a little in the mortal world, but most priests didn’t care about these.

They care more about ghost coins, lamenting how the ghost world had been inflated again this year.

Unlike the black and white impermanence who often comes to the world and owns some real estate, Jing Xian was empty handed yet also rich, the kind of existence that would be kneeled down and be called the “local tyrant” father when he showed you his bank deposits………That’s right. It was too late to spend now. There was neither a car nor a house, and he’s unable to support the scene at all.

He really wholeheartedly wanted to avenge his shame in front of Lu Yingjiu.

What’s so good about that second-hand car!

In the future, a 2 million car will only be a trivial matter. Drive them casually! Bump them casually! I will spoil Lu Yingjiu and buy as many cars as he likes!

Jing Xian hung up the phone and looked back again to Lu Yingjiu.

Lu Yingjiu was still a little worried, “Your friend shouldn’t be involved in this matter, the water here is too deep.”

(t/n Water is too deep-Refers to the fact that the background of things or people is very complicated and unpredictable, if you get involved, you will endanger yourself if you are not careful.)

“It really doesn’t matter.” Jing Xian said, “The car at the door, we’ll find a way to get it back later?”

“En.” Lu Yingjiu nodded.

He was still wrapped in Jing Xian’s black coat, his nose and mouth were covered, only a pair of eyes with upturned tails were exposed, and a few strands of black hair had stuck out. He looked inexplicably cute.

Jing Xian felt itchy all of a sudden, wanting to mess up his head, or hug him tightly and not let go.

They simply stood there in the corner.

Five minutes later, under Jing Xian’s expectant eyes, a car light appeared faintly at the end of the road. The sound of a large vehicle came, and the ground trembled faintly.

Jing Xian: “………”

He suddenly had a bad feeling.

He saw the lights around the corner getting brighter.

A green bus drove slowly, with an advertisement for a plastic surgery hospital on its body. A beautiful woman smiling gracefully was pasted on it, and the electronic screen on the top read [666].

310 horsepower engine, 6AT automatic transmission, disc brakes, imported air conditioner.

A 12-meter low-floor bus with a market price of 1.9 million.

Two people standing:”……..”

Lu Yingjiu: “This can’t be the car, right?”

Jing Xian:”……..”

Jing Xian: “Ah, of course not, how could it be possible. Only fools would have such a car.”

He lowered his head and frantically called Hei Wuchang, but it was too late. The bus slowly stopped in front of them, the door opened, and a sleepy young man in the driver’s seat said loudly, “Boss, your car is here!!”

In the middle of the night, the building of the Green Lantern Association was brightly lit.

A group of ghost exorcists gathered in Chen Zheng’s office, no one dared to move or make a sound, the surroundings were so quiet that even breathing was heavy. Chen Zheng was sitting behind his desk, next to a cup of freshly brewed jasmine tea, he gritted his teeth and said, “Trash….! You have let people run away, whose responsibility is it?!” 

No one answered.

After a long time, a person said tremblingly, “I think, I might have been the one to let them go.” He swallowed, “I was in charge of searching the second floor, at that time, when I opened the door of the utility room, I saw two people in the corner, uh, I don’t know the tall one, and I didn’t get to see the face of the other person in the corner as well.”

Chen Zheng frowned, “What exactly were they doing?”

“Uh, that’s right, the kind, the kind like what couples do, where you touch and kiss each other. The pants, the pants were almost taken off….”

Chen Zheng slapped the table violently, “Are you trying to say that Lu Yingjiu, the former chief of our dignified Green Lantern Association, was having sex with a man in a crappy gay bar at the time?! Or was the one being pressed down?! Xiao Meng, Do you have any brains, is this possible? Is this realistic? What touch and kiss, and pants that are about to take off, even novels dare not make up like this!”

“Ah, right, right. I’ve learned a lesson from Chairman Chen.” The ghost exorcist nodded hurriedly, “I was too unrealistic, I was too impractical. Then, is it also possible that he is not there at all?” 

Chen Zheng took a deep breath again, persuading himself not to see the trash in the same light. He picked up the antihypertensive medicine on the table and ate one, then took another picture on the table.

On it were the two torn seals.

His stubby fingers snapped at the photo, “Two seals, one from ours and one from the Chen family. How long will one take to unseal it?!”

“Ah me?” The exorcist trembled, “No, no, no, I don’t know.”

“One can’t do it even for three days.” Chen Zheng scolded, “What’s the situation now, they have been torn off–the spells on them have not been destroyed, yet they have been torn off like two pieces of paper! In less than two seconds! No one else can do it except him, it was definitely that guy named Lu Yingjiu!”

His vital capacity was not good, and was already short of breath, sitting on the seat, he was panting for breath.

The room became dead silent, and suddenly the door was pushed open, and a steady voice came, “Can’t I even do it?”

Everyone’s hair stood on end.

Chen Zheng raised his eyes with some difficulty, and saw Chu Banyang standing at the door, his face sinking like water.

Chu Banyang was a person who paid great attention to his image. Even if he just came back from the bar scene, his hair was still combed meticulously, his shirt flat without wrinkles, and his muddy shoes were replaced with new leather shoes sent by the butler. The calfskin was incredibly soft and the sheen looked expensive.

He had just invited the Peacock Deity, and under the high-intensity search, the burden on his body was also extremely heavy. Even he himself was affected by the spirit, and his eyes turned green and golden for a short time, like some kind of a gemstone.

Chen Zheng frowned again.

His attitude towards Chu Banyang was obviously much better, and he restrained his anger,”Xiao Chu, I didn’t mean that. Of course you can do it, but you are not a suspect, and we will not suspect you, why would we? By the way, how is the situation now?”

“My people are still searching.” Chu Banyang said, “Don’t count on fingerprints and footprints, it’s useless. There are traces of fighting with ghosts at the scene, we can only start from that.”
