Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 567
[Chapter 564: Ghost Fighting Stick Technique]
Method Cheng Le’er and David have been together for a while, and inevitably have been affected.
Or, when people don’t have too many burdens in life, is it natural to have fun to satisfy their spiritual needs?
Even if there are some burdens in life, people will still have fun.
Just like now!
A group of police officers from the Special Affairs Investigation Division moved into the almost uninhabited Maple Forest Building in various identities, and spontaneously gathered together to play cards to kill time, waiting for nightfall, and then looking around to see if it was really haunted, or if someone was playing tricks?
“Straight Flush!”
“Your Straight Flush is the biggest!”
“I’m playing Big Two! Anything else?”
“Yours is the biggest!”
Zhou Xingxing saw Wu Ying laughing and throwing out three with one to clear his hand, so he casually threw down all the cards he had not played and mixed them up twice: “Oh, I don’t want to play anymore, it’s boring!”
“…”
Wu Ying was enjoying his win and was laughing as frivolously as he could, but the new officer Zhou cheated when he couldn’t win. His rank was not as high as the other’s, so he could only put the cards away with a depressed look on his face.
“Wu Ying.” Although Zhou Xingxing had already arrived at Fenglin Building and started to carry out the mission, he still didn’t believe that there were ghosts in the world. Although he had asked countless times and knew how the other party would answer, he still couldn’t help asking: “Are there really ghosts?”
“Sir, you have asked eight times since you came here.”
“I know, can’t I ask again after asking?”
“Yes! You are the commander, you can ask if you want.”
Zhou Xingxing spread his hands: “If someone deliberately spreads rumors, I still think it’s reasonable… Haunted, this is not scientific!”
“…” Wu Ying looked at Zhou Xingxing speechlessly, not understanding what this commander Zhou had to worry about: “Sir, you know that Mr. Glamorgan, and you are still talking about science?”
“What’s wrong with him?”
“Look over there, all the women in the group are circling around him, do you think this is scientific?”
Zhou Xingxing looked over there, and the three beautiful women, He Fanni, Moon, and Karen, all surrounded David and asked questions non-stop, as if 300,000 whys had come together.
In addition to Cheng Le’er who came with David to watch the fun, the four beauties surrounded him, and the scene was really… jealous.
“Mr. Glamorgan is so handsome, it’s normal to attract girls, it’s scientific.”
Just then, there was a knock on the door, Karen stood up and said, “I’ll open the door.”
After a while, Superintendent Hu and Ma Xiaoling walked in together.
“Sir!”
Except for David and Cheng Le’er, everyone else stood up and saluted. Superintendent Hu, who was in plain clothes, waved his hand and said, “Don’t reveal your identity when performing the mission.”
“Sir, there are only a group of us left in the whole building, and no one cares about our identity at all.”
“Ah? Didn’t they say that there are still a few families who haven’t moved out?”
“We asked, and those families have only moved out in name. They have already left the building and lived somewhere else.” Inspector He didn’t surround David as soon as she came. She sat here to chat after she had almost finished her work and understood all the situations she should know.
As a young inspector who was transferred to a new department not long after taking office, He Fanni has a very strong sense of professionalism and is eager to prove her ability.
Unfortunately, the equipment is not in place, so she can only ask David here for some experience in dealing with ghosts, which should be useful in the future.
Moon and Karen actually had similar ideas, except that the two girls would mix some personal stuff into the business, such as suddenly asking about the relationship between David and Cheng Le’er.
In fact, there was no need to ask this question. Cheng Le’er was like David’s pendant, always following David, and always sitting next to David when sitting down. This situation was already very obvious.
The two looked at each other, curious about what was going on between David and the girl named Sophia? And what was going on with Instructor Hu? There
were more and more curious things, but before they could ask clearly, Superintendent Hu came with Miss Ma.
Before David, Master Zhang, Taoist Master Zhong, and Miss Ma had all visited their department, so Moon and Karen knew this young exorcist.
Ma Xiaoling came here this time to deliver the glasses that had been made, otherwise they would not be able to perform the task today.
In addition, Ma Xiaoling heard that the first task of the new department was to investigate Fenglin Building, and immediately decided to go there to see it in person. After all, the matter of Fenglin Building had spread in the exorcist circle. In
fact, there were already righteous monks who were ready to come and see it in person.
Unexpectedly, the police were dispatched before the exorcists took action.
This shows that the official information and response speed are much higher than those of purely civilian exorcists, which is definitely a good thing for the citizens of Hong Kong.
As for whether the establishment of the new department will affect the jobs of exorcists?
Actually, it will not, because most of the victims of large-scale supernatural events are ordinary people, and there is no extra money to hire masters to deal with these things.
Most ordinary people will try to avoid such incidents if they can, and if they can’t do anything, they will just use talismans that they don’t know whether they
will work or not. If you are lucky, there will be righteous monks who will come to deal with it after learning about the incident. If you are unlucky, you may just confess directly.
Exorcists like Ma Xiaoling who make a living from this are employed by wealthy people, so they can afford the remuneration of these masters.
What’s more, the police have now become clients of people like Ma Xiaoling and Zhang Tianshi, and their business has become more because of the diversification of official information channels.
“Time is urgent, so we can only ensure that everyone has a pair of glasses.” After Ma Xiaoling greeted everyone, she took out the glasses she had just made. Only then did she notice the presence of David and Cheng Le’er: “You are here too?”
“I happened to be there when they received the task, and since I have nothing to do recently, I came to watch the fun.”
“Then there should be nothing to worry about.” Although Ma Xiaoling suspected that David had used some strange spells on her best friend Zhenzhen, and was not used to his playboy style, she still recognized David’s strength.
With David in charge, even if another ghost king appeared in this building, it would not cause any trouble.
It seems that she can say hello to those colleagues: There is no need to pay attention to Fenglin Building, and the matter will definitely be resolved.
At the same time, she remembered that she had not returned the coat she took away last time to David!
After the last incident, she wanted to find a time to return the clothes, but she heard that David went out to sea on a cruise ship and didn’t know when he would be back, so she had to put it aside. It was not
until she saw him today that Ma Xiaoling thought of this matter again.
I wanted to talk about this, but when I saw Cheng Le’er beside me, I didn’t dare to speak, for fear that the other party would misunderstand something. I had to wait until the next time I met alone to talk about this.
The police officers received important equipment, and the sun began to set. Superintendent Hu urged everyone to start working.
According to the plan, they will patrol the building in the next few days to find traces of ghosts. Today is the first day, and everyone has to go out.
“Divide into two teams. I will personally lead Wu Ying, Karen, and Miss Ma to search from the first floor up; Zhou Xingxing will lead Moon, Fanny, Mr. Glamorgan and Miss Cheng to search from the top floor down. Do you have any opinions?”
Everyone had no opinions on Superintendent Hu’s arrangement. Besides, Superintendent Hu was not young anymore, and he led the team himself, so how could his subordinates dare to have any opinions.
Zhou Xingxing also cheered up and prepared to see what the so-called ghosts were…
“Ghost!!!”
Zhou Xingxing’s screams resounded throughout the building, and it was so clear and deafening in the silent night.
Just a few minutes ago, Zhou Xingxing, who firmly believed that there were no ghosts in this world, was shocked by the scene in front of him as soon as he walked out of the elevator.
“Wow, so many ghosts?”
Not to mention Zhou Xingxing was scared, David was also shocked by the scene. There were so many ghosts in this building. No wonder there was news of haunting. If the residents didn’t notice it and lived here calmly, they would be real gods.
“What should I do now?” Zhou Xingxing took off his glasses and put them on again and again. After confirming that it was really haunted several times, he was no longer fearless as before. He was panicking at this time, without the demeanor of the top sharpshooter of the Flying Tigers.
“What should I do? Go! Isn’t that what you are here for?”
“Go?”
David nodded, and pointed to the sprayer filled with black dog blood and David’s low-quality holy water on Zhou Xingxing’s waist, as well as the mahogany baton, reminding him to remember to use these things to attack the ghosts, and he couldn’t touch them with his bare hands.
Zhou Xingxing was still doubting that the world was abnormal, and Moon had already rushed up.
Moon, who is from the Queen of War, has a good fighting ability, and his boxing and kicking skills are even better. His close combat strength ranks among the best among the Queen of War.
In addition, he has seen zombies a long time ago, and he has been prepared for ghosts and monsters. He will not doubt that there is something wrong with the world, and he can enter the state at the first time.
With a spray in his left hand and a wooden stick in his right hand, he uses a set of chaotic cloak stick techniques with great vigor. With the holy water and dog blood sprayed from his left hand from time to time, the corridor is constantly filled with the shrill howling of evil spirits.
“Wow~ I have heard that the Queen of War is very fierce, but I didn’t expect it to be so fierce!”
Zhou Xingxing was shocked and glanced at David next to him. He wondered if David, who was targeted by such a Queen of War, and not just one flower, could hold on?
With random thoughts in his mind and Moon’s fierce performance, Zhou Xingxing was not so afraid of ghosts and monsters, and he took out the peach wood baton and yellow talisman, wanting to try what it feels like to fight ghosts.
“I’m familiar with beating people, but this is my first time beating a ghost.”
Just then a ghost appeared from the side, and Zhou Xingxing swung his stick and hit it: “Ah~”
