Chapter 48 The Five Saints Reveal Their Evil
"Since you've spoken, let's let that guy go." Lin Guoxin said.
Lantian secretly shook his head after hearing this. Lin Guoxin thought that he could do anything just because he had more people. If he really had to fight against a master of magic, these people would be nothing but meat being sent to him. They might not even be able to touch the corner of his clothes.
"How is Zicong?" Lin Guoxin was still worried about his son.
"It's okay, he's already asleep." Lantian said. He was thinking in his heart whether he should go find Xu Lai. With his status and position, he would surely be able to turn the situation around.
After hearing what Lan Tian said, Lin Guoxin felt relieved. It was getting late, so he was just about to invite Mr. Lan Tian to have a meal and take a rest when he heard a scream from Lin Zicong in the room.
Lin Guoxin and others were startled. Before they could react, Lin Zicong screamed several times in a row, his voice revealing strong fear and anxiety.
Lantian hurriedly went into the house, and Lin Guoxin and his son followed in a hurry.
As soon as they entered the room, they saw Lin Zicong lying on the bed, trembling all over, with his fists clenched in front of his chest, and screaming. But they quickly looked around and found that there was nothing special in the room except him.
Lin Guoxin was about to rush over to wake up his son, but was stopped by Lantian.
"Don't move, Zicong is dreaming." Lan Tian said, standing in front of the window and carefully observing Lin Zicong's reaction. He saw that his eyelids were closed, but his eyeballs could be vaguely seen rotating, which was a sign of dreaming.
"Is it a nightmare?" Lin Guoxin breathed a sigh of relief.
But when he looked at Lam Tin again, he saw that his brows were furrowed and his expression was solemn, and he was shocked again. When he looked at his son again, he saw that Lam Chi Chung was shaking like a sieve, probably because he had a terrible dream, his teeth were clenched, and even his face became a little distorted.
"This... this doesn't seem like a nightmare?" Lin Guoxin suddenly felt uneasy. It was normal to dream about something terrible, but how could one not wake up after shaking like this?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Lantian tap his son's chest his finger.
Lam Chi Chung let out a scream and immediately sat up from the bed, his eyes wide open, gasping for breath, his face and body covered in cold sweat.
"Ghosts! So many ghosts!" Lam Chi Chung shouted.
Lin Guoxin hurried forward to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's just a dream, just a dream."
Lam Chi Chung seemed to be frightened and trembled all over. His eyes were blank. It took him a while to come to his senses. He grabbed Lam Tin's arm and screamed at the top of his lungs: "Help me! There are so many ghosts! There are so many ghosts!"
Lantian said gently: "It's okay, it's just a nightmare."
Lam Chi Chung was muttering to himself, tossing and turning for a while, and then fell asleep in a daze.
Seeing that his son was fine, Lin Guoxin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said to Lan Tian, "Then let's go out first and talk about it."
Lan Tian nodded, glanced at Lin Zicong, and left the room with the two of them, saying, "Don't rush to eat, let's wait here for a while."
Lin Guoxin naturally wanted more than anything, and invited Lantian to sit on the sofa in the living room with him. Lin Ziliang asked someone to prepare some tea and pastries and bring them up.
Several people sat for a while, and seeing that everything was calm in Lam Chi Chung's house, they couldn't help but feel relieved. But at this moment, they heard another earth-shaking scream from inside the house, and then they heard Lam Chi Chung howling at the top of his lungs.
The three of them rushed into the room and saw Lam Chi Chung shaking like a sieve on the bed, his face blue, as if he had encountered something extremely terrible.
"No, don't come over here..." Lam Chi Chung started crying as he kept shouting.
Lam Tin hurried forward to wake Lam Chi Chung up.
"What's going on?" Lantian looked solemn.
Lam Chi Chung was soaked through, as if he had been fished out of the water. He shivered for a long time before his pupils began to focus. He said in a trembling voice, "Ghosts, so many ghosts, all kinds of ghosts, please don't bother me..." As he spoke, he burst into tears.
"This...what on earth is going on?" Lin Guoxin was anxious. It was okay to have a nightmare once, but it was a bit strange to have two in a row. And how could a nightmare be so intense?
"You two go out first, I'll check Zicong again." Lantian frowned and gave an instruction to Lin Guoxin and his son.
Lin Guoxin hesitated to speak, but still took Lin Ziliang out. The father and son waited outside the door for about half an hour before seeing Lantian come out of the room with a tired face.
"How is it?" Lin Guoxin asked hurriedly.
After a long while, Lan Tian sighed and said, "It should be the Five Saints Demonic Talisman."
"What is that?" Not only Lin Guoxin was confused, even Lin Ziliang, who had learned magic from Lantian for many years, was also bewildered.
Lan Tian shook his head and said, "Someone has planted a Five Saints Demonic Talisman on Zicong. This talisman has another name, and it is also called the Hundred Ghosts Haunting Talisman. Anyone who is struck by this talisman will be haunted by all kinds of ghosts in their dreams as soon as they fall asleep."
This was said quite straightforwardly, and Lin Guoxin understood it immediately: "In other words, whenever Zicong falls asleep, he immediately has ghost dreams? If this continues, it will be disastrous!"
If this is true, even a very healthy and normal person will probably collapse or become mentally ill if this continues for a long time.
Lantian sighed: "That person really went too far."
Originally, it was Zicong who used the Divine Seal first, and the man locked Yin and Yang on him in anger, which would have fine, but the man actually felt that it was not enough and planted this talisman on Zicong, which was really too vicious!
"Then... can this be solved?" Lin Guoxin's face turned pale.
Lantian was silent for a long time, then said in a hoarse voice: "This human race talisman's method is very special. I have tried various methods, but none of them worked."
"What should we do then?" Lin Guoxin was furious, a fierce look flashed across his face, and he was about to send someone out to kill the man.
Lan Tian hurriedly stopped him. If Lin Guoxin really did that, the situation would be even more out of control. He pondered for a moment and said, "I will go meet that person in person and mediate. I hope he can give me some face."
After hearing what he said, Lin Guoxin suppressed his anger.
If Lantian can really convince that man to remove the Yin-Yang Lock and the Hundred Ghosts Talisman on his son, it would mean that the guy is sensible!
"You guys take good care of Zicong." After saying this, Lantian hurried out without even having time to eat.
It was already past seven o'clock, the sky had darkened, and the lights were just coming on. The streets were much busier than during the day, with cars and people thronging on both sides.
Xu Lai followed the address Chen Duo had sent him, and after walking through several alleys, he finally found the person in a food stall.
"This way!" Chen Duo had already occupied a table. Seeing him coming, she stood up and waved to him.
Xu came over and sat down and said, "This place is really hard to find. Why did you think of eating here?" To be honest, if it weren't for the cell phone positioning, he really wouldn't be able to find this place.
"Because it's delicious here!" Chen Duo said, flipping through the menu and saying, "Look at what you want to eat?"
Xu came over and saw some grilled skewers, so he said, "It doesn't matter to me. I'll eat whatever you eat."
"Okay then." Chen Duo said, and ordered several dishes skillfully, and also ordered two cans of beer.
Judging from her agile appearance, it is obvious that she comes to this place often.
"Don't be fooled by the poor environment here. The food here is pretty good," said Chen Duo.
"There seem to be a lot of people." Xu looked around and saw that almost every stall was full of people. Everyone was talking and laughing. Although it was noisy , it was also lively.
"By the way, you didn't go home last night?" Chen Duo asked.
Xu Lai said yes, he didn’t sleep last night because something happened.
"You're staying up all night again, are you going to die?" Chen Duo was shocked. In just a few days, this guy has been staying up all night for several nights.
"Not bad." Xu Lai said with a laugh.
"What's going on? Have you encountered any difficult problems again?" Chen Duo asked.
Xu said it was okay and it had been resolved.
"It turns out that being a mage is so hard, working day and night." said Chen Duo.
"Yes, but I'm used to it." Xu said. In the past, the longest time he had not slept was several days and nights. Compared with this, this is nothing.
"You still need to improve your skills so that you don't have to work day and night, otherwise you won't be able to find a wife in the future." Chen Duo taught.
