Chapter 498: Strange Ritual
These Walking Corpses have Corpse Family Talismans stuck to their foreheads; they are still sleeping and will only wake up when a Corpse Controller summons them with a Secret Method.
These people are all in modern attire, and some even died not long ago; they were all turned into Walking Corpses by Liu Suiyue for her own use.
Walking further inside, there are three corpses; these three corpses are small in stature and are all children, and the figure of that little boy from just now is clearly among them.
Chen Yu walked up and discovered that these three children's corpses are two boys and one girl; the two little children are both three or four years old, and the girl is slightly older, looking about seven or eight.
They have Locking Corpse Nails driven into their bodies, mercury has been poured into their bodies, and a symbol is drawn on their foreheads with Cinnabar.
Chen Yu recognizes this symbol; the symbol belongs to the Daoist "Spirit-Suppressing Talisman," and its purpose is to keep the deceased's Spirit within the body so it cannot go far.
The Spirit-Suppressing Talisman symbol on the little boy's forehead is missing a few strokes, and it is precisely because of this reason that he was able to go out and communicate with him.
The more Chen Yu looked, the more shocked he became; he felt the Walking Corpses were nothing, perhaps just Liu Suiyue maliciously harming people.
But he felt there was a problem with the children; the way the children's corpses were handled was different, as if some kind of ritual was being performed.
After pondering for a long time, Chen Yu still could not figure out the reason for using Locking Corpse Nails to pin them, filling their bodies with mercury, and then sealing the children's corpses inside their bodies.
However, the children were still young and were originally in the midst of a carefree childhood, so Chen Yu could not bear to leave their corpses in the wilderness.
Chen Yu pulled out the Locking Corpse Nails, wiped away the symbols on the three children's foreheads, took back their Spirits, and would find an opportunity later to send them into Reincarnation.
Then the children's corpses were cremated on the spot, and those sleeping Walking Corpses were also burned one by one.
After finishing all this, the sky was already slightly bright, and only then did Chen Yu drive away.
Once he reached a place with a signal, Chen Yu called He Lingyun, and they were on their way to Ning City.
Upon receiving Chen Yu's call, He Lingyun finally felt at ease, and the group agreed to meet in Ning City.
Chen Yu touched the Longevity Lock that He Lingyun had given him and remained silent for a long time.
Seeing He Lingyun again, that sense of closeness, as if blood were thicker than water, drew them even closer, as if she were his own biological mother; Chen Yu made up his mind that, no matter what, he had to figure out his relationship with her.
Driving east all the way, he finally arrived in Ning City around ten o'clock in the morning.
Just after getting off the ring expressway, there was a bang in front, and a car knocked over an electric scooter.
When Chen Yu got out of the car to look, he saw a fire-red Ferrari parked on the side, and a girl riding an electric scooter had fallen to the ground, her knees and hands covered in blood.
Some Medicine was scattered on the ground; her face was deathly pale, and she endured the pain to pick up the Medicine on the ground and put it into her backpack.
A slouching young man stepped out of the Ferrari; he was dressed in expensive clothes, wearing a green Water Ghost, and had a girl dressed in gaudy jewelry on his arm; he looked like a rich second generation.
"Young Master Wu, you promised to give this car to me, now that it's been hit, what should we do?" The girl tugged at the rich second generation, shaking him with a coquettish voice.
"Damn it, I haven't even had this car for a month." Young Master Wu touched a bit of paint knocked off the front of the car and cursed at the girl: "Do you not have eyes? Or are you in such a rush to reincarnate? Do you know how much this car of mine costs?"
"I'm sorry, I, I was in a hurry." The girl tried to stand up, but her leg was injured too severely, and she failed to get up after several attempts.
"Pay up," Young Master Wu said, cursing: "Take out one hundred thousand and you can leave, hurry up, I have things to do."
"I, I don't have that much money," the girl was almost crying: "I'm in a hurry to deliver Medicine to my mother at the hospital, I'm really sorry."
"Stop pretending to be pitiful here; Young Master Wu asking for one hundred thousand is already going easy on you, this is a Ferrari after all," Shasha said angrily: "Hurry up and take out the money, don't delay our important business."
"I really don't have that much money, I only have five thousand yuan in my card, and I still have to pay my mother's hospital fees," the girl cried out.
"Five thousand? Do you think my car is a Wuling Hongguang? I bought this car for five million, and I haven't even driven it for a month; this bit of paint that was knocked off has to be imported from abroad, and it won't even arrive in less than a month."
Young Master Wu cursed: "Who do you think I am? You want me to drive this broken car to a party?"
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." The girl struggled to get up; blood was streaming down her knees, and her arms were covered in purple and red bruises.
"What's the use of apologizing? Young Master Wu, looking at her, she can't afford the money anyway, how about..." Shasha said viciously: "Let her run a lap naked, and this matter will be settled, what do you think?"
"Tsk tsk, Shasha, I just like people like you; you can always think of good ideas at critical moments." Young Master Wu tilted his head to look at Shasha and laughed loudly: "Did you hear that? Strip and run a lap."
"I, I'm sorry, you can take the money in my card first, I'll pay the rest slowly." The girl was terrified; she took a card out of her bag and handed it over.
"Are you trying to dismiss a beggar with five thousand yuan? Did you not understand what I said? I told you to strip and run a lap," Young Master Wu threw the bank card onto the ground and said viciously.
"You are being too much, it was you who made an illegal U-turn and hit her."
"Exactly, the young girl has a patient at home, it's not easy for her."
"Call the police." The onlookers couldn't stand it anymore; this pair of man and woman were too excessive.
"Shut up, all of you! Do you know who Young Master Wu is? He is the son of President Wu of the Longjiang Group, and his uncle is the top leader of Ning City, Wu Zhangjiang. Who among you dares to meddle in other people's business?" Shasha shouted arrogantly.
At her words, everyone obediently shut their mouths.
The passerby who had just called to report to the police quickly nodded and bowed, saying: "So it is Young Master Wu Hao, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."
"Meddling in other people's business, get lost." Young Master Wu waved his hand impatiently at the man, then shouted at the girl: "Either bring the money, or do as I say, or..."
As Wu Hao spoke, he walked up and pinched the girl's chin, saying with great interest: "You don't look too bad either, coming back with me to keep me company for a few days will also work."
"I can pay you back slowly, but don't even think about your other conditions, take your hand off." Although the girl had a gentle personality, she had a lot of backbone, and she slapped Wu Hao's hand away.
"You bitch, Young Master Wu is giving you a chance, you don't know what's good for you." Shasha was furious, stepped forward, and raised her hand to slap the girl.
Chen Yu couldn't stand it anymore; his figure flashed, and he struck back with a palm wind.
"Ah..." Shasha screamed and was slapped flying away.
"Who are you? You dare to hit my woman, you..." Wu Hao was furious; he pointed at Chen Yu and cursed, but before he could finish, Chen Yu kicked him flying.
Bang... Wu Hao smashed into the Ferrari behind him, and with a crack, the windshield of the sports car shattered; the guy clutched his stomach and rolled onto the ground.
