Chapter 187: Do Nothing Else

Seeing Lan Shiwen locked the screen and tucked the phone into the lining of his Zhongshan suit: "We can't wait three days. This Plague God must be invited away now, immediately and right away."

After speaking, he quickened his pace and ran toward the intensive care unit.

"What happened?" Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe caught up with him in three steps and asked along the way.

"The first batch of people I sent to Yanglao Village all lost contact, even though they each carried 1 copper coin." Seeing Lan Shiwen said while running: "The second batch that entered Yanglao Village immediately after all carried 7 copper coins, but only one person came back alive to pass the situation inside to the outside world."

"What's inside?"

"It's on fire."

A great fire, spreading endlessly, burning across the mountains and fields, steaming dry the paddy fields, the enchanting tongues of fire jumping and popping on the golden and full rice ears, like the smiling faces of evil ghosts.

A drone aerial photo was sent by Seeing Lan Shiwen to Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe's device. Clicking on the screen, he saw:

He saw a giant human face portrait outlined by crimson flames and scorched earth lying quietly in the center of the screen, with a fierce appearance and a hideous expression. The continuous tongues of fire were its bulging veins, and the scorched gullies in the farmland were the wrinkles on its face, as if a dying old man had been buried alive in the soil, struggling to poke a resentful face out of the ground, wailing silently.

"The ghost is here." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe whispered.

There was no next photo, because the drone and the person controlling the drone were already dead.

Seeing Lan Shiwen stood in front of the door, looking up, using his iris to unlock the security system of the ward where Yin Lishang was. A strong man in uniform stood beside him, reporting in a low voice:

"Mr. Liu asked me to tell you that the medical team he invited from abroad has already boarded the plane and will arrive in Yundu this afternoon. His meaning is that handling strange events is not urgent for a moment. At least before the medical team takes over Liu Lao's treatment, the Plague God must absolutely not be moved..."

Seeing Lan Shiwen took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Do you know what time it is now? It's not even eight o'clock in the morning. His damn medical team won't arrive until the afternoon. A whole day is enough for the ghost to crawl into the city and kill all of us."

The uniformed man used his left hand to support the bone-conduction headset fixed behind his ear and lowered his head: "If it's a Gridder of your level, Mr. Lan, you should be able to delay the deterioration of the situation, and the Endowed Ones trained by Yunzhou will also assist you..."

"What if it can't be delayed? What if the ghost crawls into the city? Who will be responsible for the impact caused? Who will pay for the lives of innocent citizens in Yundu? That guy surnamed Liu?" Seeing Lan Shiwen's tone was still steady, but there were veins jumping on his forehead: "I want to invite the Plague God away now, immediately."

The uniformed man was stunned for a moment and lowered his head even lower: "Mr. Liu said he can be responsible..."

Seeing Lan Shiwen's face turned gloomy.

Gridders are too deeply involved with the government, which has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that there is basically no need to care about the impact when handling strange events, and there are always special people to cooperate and clean up the aftermath at any time, getting unlimited resources and manpower support. The disadvantage is that some specific actions cannot be done as one wishes and need to go through complicated procedures and approvals.

Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe is different. He is a loose person, a loose person without any constraints.

Money can't buy my happiness, nothing is better than my happiness—that's what this kind of person is like.

However, before Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe could say anything, Seeing Lan Shiwen, who had always been calm and composed, suddenly exploded. He took out a pistol from behind his waist and fired two shots at the uniformed man's two legs.

"Mr. Lan!"

"Tell that guy surnamed Liu to run as far as he can while he still can. After today, his whole family will die. I repeat: everyone within five generations of his Liu family, regardless of gender, age, or seniority, must die." Seeing Lan Shiwen kicked the uniformed man, who had been shot in both legs, to the ground, broke through the isolation ward next to Yin Lishang's ward, and walked straight in.

Bang—

Seeing Lan Shiwen walked out of the ward with a gun and wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand: "Let's go, Yeyao, the matter is solved."

Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe pointed to the ground with his finger: "Someone is coming upstairs. I'm afraid it won't be so easy for you to leave."

"I will handle it." Seeing Lan Shiwen said expressionlessly.

"Fine, then I'll go first. Bring the Plague God over as soon as you handle the matter here." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe said, walking to the windowsill: "I have a premonition that what happened in Yanglao Village is related to the Plague God not being there."

Before the words fell, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe's body fell out of the window first.

A peregrine falcon flapped its wings and broke through the wind, leaving the locked-down Yundu Municipal Hospital, which was no longer peaceful.

The wings rode the airflow and flew out of the city area of Yundu, which was full of high-rise buildings. Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe landed at a gas station near the highway entrance, zero-dollar-shopped a large-displacement motorcycle from a biker buying cigarettes in the convenience store, kicked it and left without saying a word, leaving the crying and cursing behind.

The peregrine falcon is one of the fastest flying birds on Earth, but that is only the theoretical sprinting speed, which is very physically demanding. Yanglao Village is about 20-30 kilometers away from Yundu city area, and he didn't want to fly there so hard.

Speeding at 320 kilometers per hour all the way, the traffic cameras on the highway recorded the heroic posture of the ghost-fire teenager one by one in the violation record database. However, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe didn't care about things like points deduction at all, because he didn't have a driver's license at all.

Not long after speeding like this, a heat wave hit his face on the highway. The prairie fire was leaping and rising in the rice fields by the road.

Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe didn't slow down at all, but instead twisted the throttle to the bottom, kicked hard under his feet, and the motorcycle he zero-dollar-shopped was kicked into the water ditch by the side of the road. Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe's whole body leaped forward with the inertia of the sprint, turned into a python in mid-air, passed through the fire wall advancing forward, until his body, which was roasted to medium-rare, landed heavily on the scorched soil, turning back into the appearance of a teenager wearing an evil ghost mask, with a pure black travel bag on his back.

In the fire field, water vapor was misty, and the accumulated water in the rice fields was boiled to a bubbling boil by the scorching temperature, boiling the soles of his shoes on the silt until they were soft and chewy.

"Damn it, what kind of ghost thing..." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe unzipped the travel bag, put a gas mask on his face to filter the smoke in the fire field, and then, a name blurted out: "Nianjun."

As the words fell, a touch of crimson wedding dress quietly appeared in his line of sight. The snow-white girl without facial features was bowing her exquisite and convex figure, and her delicate hands like peeled bamboo shoots were holding an old and withered almanac.

Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe stepped on the boiling silt and walked to He Nianjun, extending his left hand to turn the page of today's almanac:

【Lunar June 17th】

【Suitable: Marriage, Sacrifice, Pest Removal, Hunting, Netting, Fishing, Coming-of-Age Ceremony】

【Taboo: Do Nothing Else】

"Fuck."
