there is someone behind me

The fluctuating hedging of spiritual power and magic energy completely dissipated the camouflage maintained by the road of life and death, and the most primitive road of life and death unfolded in front of everyone.

It is a wide road with no end in sight at both ends, and the road is surrounded by wilderness with sparse vegetation.The sky above the head is very low, as if it is within reach.The starlight was dim and the moonlight was hazy, casting an ominous red halo on the ground.

Ling Xiaozi has driven the thief to a desperate situation. He will not kill the thief, because the thief has not returned what he stole.Xi Chenzi cooperated with Ling Xiaozi to shrink the formation step by step.Those floating cloud seals were like a cage, the light became brighter and the chains became stronger.

The thief's shape became clear.Its head is about the size of a normal person, but its face is pale, its eye sockets are sunken, and its eyes are black and blue, but its lips are as red as a living person with a very good complexion.At this time, the expression on this face was distorted and ferocious, its thin limbs were fixed in the air by Ling Xiaozi, and the small sword made of talisman paper penetrated its intangible limbs, and Qichenzi's formation surrounded it. into a small space.

The thief struggled frantically, mobilizing the raging devil energy.

However, the devilish energy around it couldn't give it the slightest response.

Standing with a sword in hand, Zhou Ling looked like a luminous body, and the only dim stars left on the road of life and death gathered around him.The wind blowing from nowhere raised Zhou Ling's scattered hair, and a vast sea of ​​spiritual energy fell from the sky, sweeping the entire road of life and death as if guided.

The magic energy was forced to disperse in the corner.

Full of awe-inspiring righteousness, ordered by heaven to cleanse all evils in the world.

No one can lose their minds under such a feast.

Pei Xing thought, not to mention Zun Zixiao Mountain being the head of the Taoist sect, but some people would be willing to make a golden body for this young elder Zhou.

Stealing ghost saw the demon energy dissipated little by little, and the miserable struggle became more and more intense.

Qichenzi waved to Qinghe, and handed over the formation to him.He brought the trapped ghost to Zhou Ling.

Zhou Ling opened his eyes, and slowly swung the long sword in his hand, following a certain ancient trajectory, bringing Haoran's clear energy to the ghost thief.

Not really stripping and purifying.After all, the target is a villainous thief, not an innocent mortal.

Zhou Ling roughly pulled out the devilish energy from the ghost thief, and the screams from the ghost thief were covered by Ling Xiaozi's silent talisman.

With the withdrawal of the demonic energy, the Thief's struggle became weak, and the madness in his eyes receded. He flinched and spit out all the life it had stolen.

Those shining golden highlights flicker in the dark, like the Milky Way falling from the sky, very charming.

But Zhou Ling always remembered that it was spit out by the thief.

from the mouth.

To be honest, he kind of minded.

Seeing that the thief returned the things he stole, Ling Xiaozi stopped chasing and beating the thief.If it is not necessary, he is not interested in anything, only Zhou Ling is special.

He accurately found those belonging to Zhou Ling among the golden spots of light.These dots of light, which represent the vitality of a person, will find their owner by themselves, and then return to the owner's body. It is very rare to be floating in the air like this, unless its owner is resisting their entry.

Ling Xiaozi knew what Zhou Ling was struggling with, he said, "Ghosts have no substance."

The implication is that it's just a ball of light crashing into another ball of light.

Zhou Ling frowned, not particularly able to accept this argument: "I know it has no entity, but this image is very hot—" He didn't have a chance to say the word eyes.

Ling Xiaozi didn't care about Zhou Ling's hypocrisy in some trivial matters - no way, Zi Xiaoshan spoiled it himself - he stuffed the light ball into Zhou Ling's mouth while Zhou Ling was talking inside.

Vitality enters the body, and the whole person feels warm.

Even though Zhou Ling knew that the vitality would disperse immediately after entering the body, and he would not feel the feeling of swallowing at all, but the movement of entering from his mouth still made him retch twice.

"Little Martial Uncle?" He yelled in shock, as if he couldn't believe that Ling Xiaozi did this to him.

Ling Xiaozi raised his eyes and said expressionlessly, "It's okay."

Zhou Ling rubbed his arms and chopped his feet, but he couldn't say what was wrong, nor could he say what was good.

Under the guidance of Xi Chenzi, Qinghe collected the undigested vitality of other thieves, and released them when they were outside.

Xi Chenzi himself found an empty porcelain bottle and sealed the thief in it.The remaining demonic energy is not enough to pose any threat, and the road of life and death will soon devour these residual magical energy and turn them into nourishment for strengthening oneself.

Pei Xing swallowed, and asked cautiously: "That's it, is it over?"

Xi Chenzi said: "It's over, stealing ghosts and stealing lives, and ghosts becoming demons. Didn't your local office find any problems before? This can't be done overnight."

Pei Xing thought for a while, then shook her head and said: "No. During the time of the grievance jar, our place was calm. Only the rumors of haunted hospitals in recent days have been verified. We sent people to investigate together with the relevant departments, and found out A doctor named Wu Liang was very evil, we sent people to follow him for a few days, and found that he had private contacts with people from the metaphysics world."

Zhou Ling asked: "Does that doctor wear a pair of half-rimmed black-rimmed glasses, with a flat head and a little short?"

Pei Xing: "Yes. It's him, and he didn't wear glasses before, he just started wearing them recently."

Zhou Ling also wanted to ask the nurse who had a relationship with Wu Liang, who had contact with Wu Liang.Ling Xiaozi patted him on the shoulder: "Go out first."

He took Chengying from Zhou Ling's hand, and with a seemingly casual swipe, a hole appeared in the space, and the interior decoration of the hospital was revealed.

They were no longer at the end of the original corridor, and the signs above their heads showed that they were on the fifth floor of the hospital at the moment.There are dean's room, vice-president's room, director's office and some meeting rooms.The floor of the elevator behind stayed on the fourth floor, and it didn't jump for a long time.There was a light on in the corridor, but it was not very good, and it flickered.It adds a bit of horror movie visual sense to the floor.

The stairs are at the end of the corridor, and the elevator is not a good escape route when it is usually haunted—although Zhou Ling and the others don’t need to escape, they don’t expect to need to violently destroy the elevator to solve the problem—and the two elevators are from Judging from the number of floors on the control panel, it is probably going to be permanently stationed on the fourth floor.This originated from Qinghe's temptation. He tried to press the elevator, but it didn't work.

Xi Chenzi shrugged, and muttered, "Can these brats have some progressive ideas?" He spoke so quickly and softly that only Ling Xiaozi heard it, but Ling Xiaozi wouldn't discuss it with him. .

They saw Wu Liang's name at the door of one of the director's offices. Zhou Ling continued his question: "This person—" He pointed to the sign with Wu Liang's name on it: "Which department is he from? With which nurse?" Is it a couple?"

Pei Xing said: "He is from the Department of Cardiac Surgery. He has only been working here for five years, and it was only a bang at first, but half a year ago, during an operation, the chief surgeon suddenly fainted, and he took over the follow-up operation. This is actually not allowed, because He has not yet obtained the qualifications of the chief surgeon, but the operation was very successful, or strangely successful. The patient completely lost his life response for tens of seconds, but finally survived miraculously, and the recovery after the operation was very good, it was simply— —" She paused and said, "It's as if there was no heart problem at all before."

"Wu Liang became famous in this operation. Later, he performed several extremely difficult operations very well. It's not that his techniques are superb, but one or two of his patients are like medical doctors. Like a miracle, the vitality is terrifying."

Qing He was thoughtful, and said like a little adult: "Because of the thief? What kind of agreement did he reach with an unknown person, and then that person helped him get a thief. His patient did not die because of the thief. Stealing other people's vitality and putting it on his patient?"

Zhou Ling thought the same as Qinghe, but he still had other doubts: "But how could the thief steal his life? I remember this thing is very timid. Although it has the influence of demon energy, it is difficult to control the demonic things. With the level of demonic energy just now, this thief is already uncontrollable. And the life force it stole, if the demonic energy was not drawn away, it would be impossible to spit it out obediently." Speaking of this, he A disgusted look appeared on his face again.

"Because the people who control the thief are constantly increasing their control methods. It has been at least half a year since a little bit of devilish stimulation at the beginning, and now they are completely out of control. If it wasn't for the thief getting out of control, Zongxie and the relevant departments would not have noticed This hospital." Tong Yuzi's voice came from the corner of the stairs at the end of the corridor.

Yi Pingzi was dragging a person in his hand, judging from his body shape, it was Wu Liang; beside him, Ren Zhenzi was holding a book in his hand, flipping through it; Behind him; at the end, there was a crying little nurse sandwiched between a strong tall man and Liu Zihong.

"Have you caught someone?" Xi Chenzi looked at his apprentice and asked.

Tong Yuzi signaled Yipingzi to throw Wu Liang to Xichenzi: "Here. But there is something more exciting than this scumbag."

Zhou Ling had been staring at the notebook in Ren Zhenzi's hand for a long time, and immediately opened his palm to him when he heard this.

Ren Zhenzi put the notebook in Zhou Ling's palm.

Zhou Ling quickly scanned the ledger-like book, which densely recorded the transaction records between Wu Liang and a fortune teller.How much money did Wu Liang charge, and how much was given to the fortune-teller to buy his life? How many lives were stolen by the fortune-teller by manipulating the thieves? Recovery from serious illness... Human life is equated with money, and naked clothes are placed on the table.

Zhou Ling felt depressed and unprovoked anger.His anger was strange, not only for the life-stealing behavior, but more like a kind of anger for being deprived of life.It was as if, in the untraceable past, something had also taken their life away, and then it was destroyed, it failed, and there was no chance of it coming back.

"Ling'er." Maybe Zhou Ling's abnormality was too obvious, Ling Xiaozi held his hand, and the warm and dry palm touched his skin, as if the wound had been healed: "Relax, it's okay. I'm here, it's fine."
