~7 min read 1,269 words

"Sorry, that won't work, but Zhou Meng is fine," Chen Yu said. "Because she is young, her comprehension and root bone are both excellent. If she just studies properly, her future achievements will certainly be extraordinary."

"Good, what we lack is exactly that kind of talent. Mr. Chen, with such high-level Medicine, why not join the medical system? That would be able to help many people," Li Mingwu said.

"My ambition does not lie there, and those who study Medicine do not necessarily have to practice Medicine to save many people," Chen Yu smiled slightly.

"Then, may I ask, what do you do now?" Li Mingwu asked curiously.

"An unemployed wanderer, roaming about, but I have more important things to do," Chen Yu smiled.

"More important things?" Li Mingwu did not quite understand the meaning of Chen Yu's words. In his view, since he was a Yisheng and possessed such superb medical skills, the thing he should be doing was practicing Medicine.

Even at the very least, what he should be doing is spreading his superb medical skills to save more people.

"Private matters, Professor Li, please do not ask further." Chen Yu smiled. Perhaps people like Li Mingwu would never understand the things he had to do.

"Haha, fine. But Mr. Chen, I work at the best hospital in Modu, and sometimes I encounter many difficult and complicated cases. If there is a need, I wonder if it would be convenient for Mr. Chen to clear up some of my confusion?"

"If I have time, I would be very happy to do those things for you," Chen Yu smiled slightly.

"That's good, thank you in advance," Li Mingwu smiled.

"Teacher Li, shall we have lunch together?" Zhou Meng invited enthusiastically.

"I won't go. I still have a few patients scheduled for today. I'll head back to the hospital first, let's talk another day," Li Mingwu said.

"Alright then, we'll make an appointment another day," Zhou Meng smiled.

After Li Mingwu left, Zhou Meng said, "Teacher Chen, let's go eat. I'll go call Mengmeng and Zhou Bin and the others."

"Alright," Chen Yu nodded.

He had originally come to Modu to find Liu Lianxin, but now he had no leads at all, so he had no good solution for this kind of matter. The only way was to wait.

When the time was ripe, perhaps she would appear on her own.

Zhou Bin came over quickly, and after a long while, Mengmeng and Qiqi walked over.

It was just that looking at Qiqi's appearance, she seemed a bit listless, and her makeup looked a bit rushed; she must have just woken up.

"My god, Qiqi, you didn't just wake up, did you? Did you stay up late again last night?" Zhou Meng looked at Qiqi with some surprise.

"No, I slept quite early last night," Qiqi yawned and said helplessly, "I just played games with a few roommates for a while and went to sleep at one in the morning."

"Sleeping at one in the morning, in your view, is that already very early?" Chen Yu was between laughter and tears; this was the current state of contemporary university students.

Staying up late... perhaps in their view, if they didn't sleep until three or four in the morning, it wasn't called staying up late.

"Teacher Chen, this is already very early for me," Qiqi smiled. "I heard you showed off your skills in Professor Li's class today. I really regret not getting up to go see it."

"How did you know?" Chen Yu asked in surprise.

"It's gone crazy on the school forum, the 'Battle of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practice'," Zhou Bin laughed. "Teacher Chen, you are now a celebrity at our Medical University."

"It's not that exaggerated," Chen Yu was between laughter and tears.

"It has already caught the principal's attention. Maybe one day he'll hire you to be a professor or something," Mengmeng laughed.

"Alright, let's go, let's go eat," Zhou Meng said.

"Okay, okay, I'm starving to death," Qiqi said, yawning again, and then resumed her listless appearance.

Suddenly, Chen Yu stopped in his tracks abruptly and looked at Qiqi with surprise.

"What's wrong, Teacher Chen? Is something not right?" The remaining few looked at Chen Yu with some strangeness, not knowing what was wrong with him.

"Qiqi, what game did you and your roommates play last night?" Chen Yu's brows were tightly locked as he stared at Qiqi.

In his view, a wisp of black Qi was permeating Qiqi's body, and this wisp of black Qi would occasionally condense into baleful energy, which was extremely fierce.

"The game we played is the 'Rebirth Mantra' that is very popular on campus recently. It's a game with a small plot where there are four or eight people who follow a script to uncover the secret of a murder case."

Qiqi was slightly stunned, then said, "The script we played was about a vengeful spirit trapped in a Dry Well, and four traveling university students going to save it."

"You play these things?" Chen Yu's expression changed slightly.

"Yes, is... is there a problem, Teacher Chen?" Qiqi saw Chen Yu's expression change, and she also became nervous.

"Tell me the rules, how exactly do you play it?" Chen Yu said, "Tell me every detail, one by one."

"This... what's wrong?" Qiqi saw his appearance and was so scared she almost cried.

"Qiqi, don't be nervous. Teacher Chen asking like this must have a reason. You should state the situation first," the others saw Chen Yu's appearance and couldn't help but become nervous as well.

"Okay, okay, I'll say it," Qiqi said hurriedly. "This kind of game is sealed. It requires us to use our own hair, plus our birth dates and times to break the seal..."

"Using your hair and birth dates and times?" Chen Yu almost cursed out loud. "Which grandson came up with this way of playing?"

"It's been popular for a long time, but usually no one takes it so seriously... I... our dormitory leader was more serious, and since it was a rule, there must be a reason, so we just followed it."

Qiqi said with some fear, "We used our birth dates and times and hair to perform the activation ritual, then opened the script and recited the Rebirth Mantra on it..."

"It's over," Chen Yu slapped his thigh. These female students, they really don't let people rest easy.

"Teacher Chen, what is this?" Zhou Bin asked hurriedly. "Could it be that these things can really summon those things to possess someone?"

"Be confident, it's not that they can really, it's that they definitely can," Chen Yu said in a deep voice. "Qiqi, where are your other roommates?"

"I don't know, I haven't seen them since I woke up this morning," Qiqi began to feel some fear. "Teacher Chen, won't something happen, will it?"

"Something will definitely happen. Stretch out your hand," Chen Yu said.

Qiqi didn't dare to ask more and hurriedly stretched out her hand.

Chen Yu grabbed her palm with one hand, then his right hand moved in the void, drawing a strange Talisman in mid-air, and finally pointed heavily at her palm.

With a hum, black Qi visible to the naked eye surged out from Qiqi's body. This black Qi condensed into a terrifying Skull, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws at Chen Yu.

But a burst of sunlight shone over, causing the black Qi on its body to permeate, and it was instantly melted away by a few points, so this roar instantly turned into a scream.
