one step closer to the end

"Lin Duoduo, right? I've known you for a long time..."

Black Lanhua stepped forward and said, "Do you know why only one group of people are allowed to take on the mission, because the target is the monster hidden among the human beings. They are very cunning and good at disguising. Once they run away, it is difficult to find them again, and they always stick together. At least three or five live in groups!"

"Miss Chen!"

Lin Duoduo raised his head and said: "Isn't this the mission of your family? No matter how difficult it is, you should go forward bravely instead of complaining to the people. We pay a large amount of taxes every year to support your family's guards. The money is not for nothing! "

"I'm not complaining..."

Hei Lanhua said with a half-smile: "Of course it is our mission to subjugate demons, why don't I send out the guards to help you destroy the monsters, I promise you won't spend any money, and I will return it to you." How about a reward of 500 yuan for reporting?"

"No need! Thank you..."

Lin Duoduo's eyes widened, but a police car drove over suddenly, and it was the captain of the Soul Hunting Bureau. Meng Weilan got out of the car and said, "Mr. Zhao! Ms. Chen! Please don't act on your own, okay? It will be very difficult for our Soul Hunting Bureau!"

"Captain Meng!"

Zhao Fei said expressionlessly: "You must act privately. This is the rule set by the tower spirit. We have already notified the soul-suppressing gate!"

"You misunderstood me, I am not going to participate in your actions..."

Meng Weilan waved his hand and said: "Please communicate with the bureau before taking action, so that we can formulate corresponding plans, otherwise we will always wipe our asses, and the common people will only think that we have neglected our duties, and as a government department, we have the right to supervise! "

"Captain Meng! I understand your difficulties..."

Black Lanhua said: "But please understand us, we will die if the mission fails, and there is no chance of escape, and I have already arranged family guards to guard the periphery. Monitor!"

"Thank you for understanding! But it will be 2000 soon, and the times have long been different..."

Meng Weilan said seriously: "You two! If you want to protect Jialan well, you should involve more people and the government instead of clinging to the old power and rules. It's not just you two who have a sense of mission, we are also part of Jialan. Members, willing to sacrifice for Jialan!"

After Meng Weilan finished speaking, he turned around and got into the car, turned around and drove towards the direction he came from, but Zhao Guanren scratched his head and asked, "I thought Jinling City was the territory of the Chen family, and the Soul Hunting Bureau also listened to your dispatches, but I didn't expect They are quite principled!"

"It seems that you don't understand anything. It's a rule set by our ancestors to be in business and not in politics..."

Zhao Feidi crossed his arms and said with emotion: "The Zhao and Chen families don't have a single official. The people supervise the government, and the government supervises us. It's the same as guarding against thieves all day long. When I go to the paid public toilet, people follow me to see if I have used public funds. Peeing, it's hard! It's so hard!"

"Damn! You two bright lights, you should wear a mask, don't trick us too..."

Zhao Guanren shook his head and walked into the car. He sat in the co-pilot and threw his backpack into the back row. Lu Datou also opened the rear door and threw a lot of equipment into the back row. But he was suddenly taken aback and asked in a low voice. : "Why did you steal someone's broken knife?"

"What kind of broken knife did I steal?"

Zhao Guanren turned his head inexplicably. Who knew that the broken black knife that cut the back of his hand was inserted obliquely into his backpack, and only the handle of the knife was exposed. He quickly pulled out the knife and said in shock: "Isn't this I stuffed it in, and the antique won't let me take it out!"

"Could it be that the black orchid stuffed it for you, but I have been following her..."

Lu Datou scratched his scalp in puzzlement, but seeing Lin Duoduo also walked over with his things, Zhao Guanren quickly put the knife back, Lu Datou also climbed into the driver's seat, and Lin Duoduo sat in the back row with a sulky face. Hold the sword and say nothing.

"Alas~ two thousand points! It's scary to think about it..."

Lu Datou sighed and drove the car onto the road, while Zhao Guanren stared at the rearview mirror and said, "Don't put on a dirty face. If the task is completed tonight, we will make a clean break from now on. If not, I will send 500 yuan to you." Give it back to your family!"

"Hmph~ I don't care..."

Lin Duoduo said angrily: "My surname is Liu! I am an unreasonable person by nature. If I die, I will definitely become a ghost and follow you every day. If you make a date, I will call the police. If you shit, I will pass the paper. Every night, I will call you to get up and pee." , I'm bothering you to death!"

"I'm afraid you won't have this chance. If you die, I will put you in the soul-locking orb, and let you wipe my ass every day, and every time..."

Zhao Guanren's ridicule stopped abruptly, and he looked at the rearview mirror with horrified eyes. There was a woman in white sitting beside Lin Duoduo. Apart from her long black hair, she was white from top to bottom, and she was crooked. He stared straight at him.

"What's wrong with you? Why does your face look like constipation..."

Lin Duoduo looked at him suspiciously, and Zhao Guanren pulled out his dagger suddenly and shouted, "Low your head! There's a ghost..."

chapter 0971

"If you are sick, go and get treated quickly, don't harm anyone here, I almost peed in fear..."

Lin Duoduo yelled in the back row angrily. The car had already parked on the side of the road. Lu Datou held the soul-chasing ball and said, "Xiao Wu! Have you gone crazy after practicing kung fu? I have a full set of soul-chasing equipment, but what can I do?" What kind of female ghost in white is there?"

"I think it's the evil sword..."

Zhao Guanren pulled out the broken knife with a livid complexion, and said seriously: "The female ghost in white I saw just now has the same claws as the ones I saw in the warehouse. This knife may be poisonous, which made me have some kind of hallucination. You can't keep the knife!"

"What's wrong? Why did you stop on the side of the road..."

Hei Lanhua's car approached suddenly, and Zhao Guanren immediately threw the broken knife out of the car window, waved his hand to signal to continue walking, and then stared at the roadside flower bed from the rearview mirror. The broken knife lay quietly in the flowers, but There are no more female ghosts.

"Damn! The old things are a little dirty..."

Zhao Guanren scolded angrily, took out the soul-suppressing card to check the task content - there is a monster!You can get [-] points for eliminating the 'White Mirage'. If you fail to complete the task beyond the time limit, [-] points will be deducted for each member of the team. If you meet the conditions of 'worshiping the moon', you can get additional rewards.

Zhao Guanren subconsciously asked: "What is a white-faced mirage, and what is worshiping the moon?"

"I don't know! Mirage is a general term for a kind of monster, not powerful but difficult to deal with..."

Lin Duoduo replied: "Mirages are cunning, good at illusion, and love to live in groups. They are beautiful in white, and white-faced mirages are the best among them. Generally, they don't eat people, but they can suck the essence of human beings. Unknowingly aging and dying!"

"It sounds difficult to do, there are only four hours left, don't even think about hidden missions..."

Zhao Guanren shook his head dejectedly, who knew that the three cars had been driving for more than half an hour, all the way into the old city, Zhao Feidi, the leader, parked the car in an alley, got off and said, "Wu Cang! Why don't we call a disguiser, so we don't scare the monsters away!"

"There's no time to change your face, you wait for us in the dark..."

Hei Lanhua got out of the car wearing a baseball cap and a mask, and put on a fancy jacket, and then put on a guitar case on his back. He probably put the guy's style in the guitar case. Zhao Fei looked at it and said, "Wait" I, throwing down the knife was about to run outside.

"Are you stupid, dare to come without preparing anything..."

Zhao Guanren stopped him angrily, threw him a mask and a flat mirror, and rubbed his shiny hair into a chicken coop, then took out a video camera from the car, handed it to him and said, "From now on You are the cameraman, we are the music talent show team!"

"Great! That's a great idea..."

Zhao Fei raised the camera excitedly, but Zhao Guanren said again: "Lin Duoduo! I'll give you 5 minutes to dress up like a host, the big head is in charge of lighting, I'm the prop and assistant, Hei Xiao... Chen Wu Cang is the rookie interviewed!"

"Then what did I say, why did the draft come here..."

Chen Wucang looked at him confusedly, Zhao Guanren rolled his eyes and said: "You said that you once rented a house in this area. Although the conditions were very, very difficult, you never gave up your dream of chasing music. Splitting the fork - nonsense!"

"Ha~ I think you are the one who plays the erhu on the steamer - you can really (steam)..."

Chen Wucang laughed teasingly, Lin Duoduo immediately got into the car and began to put on makeup, her ponytail was also loosened by her, and Zhao Guanren opened a prop box, took out the microphone and spotlight and handed it to Lu Datou, and then Put the swords in the box.

"OK! Let's go..."

Lin Duoduo got out of the car beautifully with the microphone, and turned around happily, but Zhao Guanren turned his head and walked out of the alley. After two streets, he came to the target location, a commercial and residential building in the shape of "口". In a dual-use building, the third floor and above are all households, and the lower floors are all shopping streets.

"I go!"

Zhao Guanren looked up at the fifteenth-floor building, and asked, "Wu Cang! Don't you have any equipment for hunting monsters? In such a big building, more than three hours is not enough?"

"There is a demon-seeking ruler, but our family doesn't have one..."

Chen Wucang said helplessly: "We are a family of suppressing demons, not a family of catching demons. Catching demons is under the jurisdiction of the government. We only brought two ancient demon mirrors, so we can tell them apart when we point them at them. Find it on the third floor!"

"Sister! This is a tube building with sixteen households on the first floor. You plan to knock on the door from house to house..."

Zhao Guanren walked into the building angrily. The shopping street on the first floor was filled with snacks and milk tea. .

"You two investigate separately, don't let anyone find out, we can't rule out the possibility of eyeliner..."

Chen Wucang quietly took out two demon mirrors and handed them to Zhao Feidi and Lu Datou. The demon mirrors are smooth bronze mirrors. They put the mirrors in the fake script and walked along the shop one by one while pretending to read the script.

"Why are you still talking, there are less than three hours left..."

Lin Duoduo kept stamping his feet anxiously, Zhao Guanren didn't seem to have heard the news, and moved from the security room to the Yan Hotel, but Chen Wucang frowned and said, "Can you calm down, if you didn't take this kind of crappy task, Why are we so passive?"

"Trouble!"

Zhao Guanren suddenly strode over and said in a low voice: "The upstairs is almost full of people, but the death rate is normal, only occasionally old people die. I haven't heard of anyone dying suddenly, or suffering from premature aging. The goal is to just Temporary residents are hard to find!"

"Before it's too late, let's search from house to house. Only a quarter of the houses with lights on..."

Lin Duoduo was already sweating anxiously, and soon Zhao Feidi and Lu Datou came back one after another, but both of them found nothing, and Lu Datou said dejectedly: "I even went to the third floor, and I didn't find a single monster. , definitely not in the mall!"

"Zining! If you can't, go to Wujian Pavilion..."

Chen Wucang said in a low voice: "Now you have two chances to open the door. No matter what ghosts are opened, they can search the building much faster than us, and they can directly see the evil spirit, otherwise two hours is really not enough for us." Use it!"

"That's right! Why did you forget about the Wujian Pavilion, hurry up and open the blind box..."

Lu Datou also nodded, but Zhao Guanren frowned and said, "I don't want to touch those ghost things unless I have to. When you become pavilion masters, I will give you the rewards. Let's go upstairs first. I have a solution." Do a quick search!"

Zhao Guanren turned his head and walked out of the gate. He entered the doorway of the house from the side. When he reached the third floor, he saw a large patio. The roof of the shopping mall was the big platform for the residents. Playing chess and cards.

"Damn it! Not a single..."

After scanning the demon mirrors on both sides quietly, there was still nothing, so Zhao Guanren asked them to guard the front and rear exits, and slipped into the corridor by himself. After a while, he saw thick smoke billowing in the corridor, and he shouted: "This is terrible!" La! There is a fire, everyone, come out!"

"Fire! Fire..."

Everyone on the platform shouted. Zhao Guanren didn't know what was burned. The flames quickly jumped from the fifth floor to the seventh floor. The billowing smoke covered the big courtyard. Some rushed to put out the fire, and some fled with their children.

"Don't save it! The fire is too big, everyone hurry down and wait for the fire truck, cough cough..."

Zhao Guanren ran out of the corridor with a dark face, coughing repeatedly from the smoke, while Zhao Feidi and Lu Datou hid in the front and rear exits, everyone who ran out could be photographed, but after the residents evacuated in groups , I was stunned that a monster was not found.

"My dear brother! You can go to Wujian Pavilion, the house is about to burn down for you..."

Lin Duoduo scratched his head impatiently. All the residents who could go out went out, and those who didn't went out looked around at the exit. In fact, Zhao Guanren only burned a few old tires. Seeing the black smoke billowing, there was no big fire, but It is absolutely impossible for normal people to stay at home, even monsters have to go out to have a look.

"No! There is no one upstairs..."

Zhao Guanren's expression suddenly changed. He took out the soul-suppressing card and saw that the target was still in the building. He hurriedly ran to an old man and asked, "Master! Is there an underground parking lot below? We have to let the people inside Hurry up and evacuate!"

"Ouch~ It's incredible..."

The uncle stomped his feet and said, "The basement has been converted into a group rented house, but there are many people living there. You should be fast, young man. Hurry down and inform. If the fire burns down, it will be a catastrophe. Both entrances are at the back door!"

"Quick! Come with me..."

Zhao Guanren immediately ran downstairs. The downstairs was already full of people, and they were all spectators. He hurriedly asked Lu Datou and Lin Duoduo to stay behind, and secretly observed the crowd with the demon mirror. He took Hei Lanhua and Zhao Fei to the back of the building. run away.

"It's on fire! Come out quickly..."

Zhao Guanren ran into the underground passage and yelled, but he was stunned as soon as he entered. This place has been transformed like a maze. The people living outside have all gone out. There are still many people sticking their heads out of the house. Hearing that there was a fire, they ran out one after another.

"Oops! How come the smoke..."

Zhao Guanren suddenly looked up in shock, and there was black smoke coming out of the ventilation duct at the top. He didn't know if the ventilation equipment was broken, or the top was pouring air down, but this was a good thing he did. Terrible.

"It's on fire! Get out, don't take anything..."

Zhao Guanren couldn't care less about completing the task. He ran into the intricate maze and shouted desperately. Thick smoke kept coming down, and there was a pungent smell everywhere. Who knew that the electricity was suddenly cut off, and the children were frightened. Wow cry.

"Damn it! The unscrupulous landlord doesn't even install an emergency light..."

Zhao Guanren took out the flashlight angrily, and continued running to the depths to illuminate the people. Fortunately, there was an exit on the left and right, and there were not too many people during dinner time. They were evacuated soon, and he felt heavy in his heart. relieved.

"what……"

suddenly!

A burst of children's cries sounded from behind, Zhao Guanren slapped himself violently, and ran back looking for the cries, just in time to see a young woman running over, looking for the cries together with him, but the two of them couldn't find it. ran into the depths of the smoke.

"Get out and leave it to me..."

Zhao Guanren pushed away the young woman, put on a mask, bent over and ran out of a room door. Someone locked the child in the room. He kicked the door open twice, only to see a half-sized child sitting on the ground Crying, he quickly picked up the child.

"Go! The child has been found..."

Zhao Guanren didn't expect that the young woman was still waiting for him, so he hurriedly bent over and ran forward, and the young woman was obviously familiar with this place, leading him to guide the way, but suddenly two flashlights shot from ahead, only to hear Zhao Fei look frightened. Shouted: "Zining! Behind you!"

"Om~"

A ray of golden light suddenly shot over, and it was Hei Lanhua who held up the demon mirror. Zhao Guanren suddenly turned his head to see that there were still seven or eight people standing in the thick smoke. It grew bigger, and howled angrily, tearing the clothes on its body.

"My Nima!"

Zhao Guanren took two steps back in horror, but he suddenly stuck to a pair of soft things. When he looked up in astonishment, he saw a woman with a head of a deer and a body in pitch black, except for a woman with snow-white antlers, bowing her head. Looking down at him in an elegant posture, and he was leaning on his stalwart chest.

'To die!White-faced Mirage...'

Chapter 0972 Dilemma

'To die!White-faced Mirage...'

Zhao Guanren's heart sank suddenly. He never expected that the young woman who was working with him to save people was actually the monster he was looking for, and she had seven or eight strong helpers. However, when his brain was spinning, his expression suddenly changed. Temporarily becomes whiter than the white-faced mirage.

"Fuck!"

Zhao Guanren yelled in fright, and threw the child out of his arms. The white-faced mirage grabbed him in the air, but the child was also a little monster, with a human head and a deer body with four hooves, like a centaur. , but a pair of small antlers grew on its head.

"Get out of the way!"
