Chapter 472: Corrupt Beast (4)
Zhou Faning's three children - the eldest son Zhou Qisheng, the daughter Zhou Xiaojin, and the younger son Zhou Qixi also traveled here with everyone and lived in the inn. Just now, when the crowd gathered in Pu Zixuan's room, the three of them were playing in the room next to them.
Seeing the eldest son's fearful expression, Zhou Faning immediately knew that something was wrong. Without saying a word, he immediately ran to the room next to him. Everyone followed him.
In that room, Zhou Xiaojin, covered with a veil, was lying on the ground motionless, while the youngest son, Zhou Qixi, was at a loss.
Zhou Faning asked as soon as he entered the door, "What's wrong?"
After all, Zhou Qixi was only seven years old and was already scared. When he saw his father, he immediately cried like he had seen a savior, "Dad, my sister was fine just now, but suddenly she fell down and stopped moving..."
Zhou Faning bowed and picked up Zhou Xiaojin, lifted him to the bed, let him lie flat, then reached out and took off her veil, and glanced at her appearance, immediately sighed: "Sure enough, it has become serious again..."
What Zhou Faning mentioned is that his daughter's appearance is one step closer to the appearance of a bear.
At this time, Chen Shuqing also walked to the bed and saw Zhou Xiaojin's appearance clearly. He saw that his face was thick and white hair, his nose was protruding high, and his two fangs were also very obvious.
"Masters, look, what's wrong with my daughter?"
Just as Zhou Faning finished asking this, Zhou Xiaojin suddenly opened her eyes!
Chen Shuqing realized something instantly, shouted "Not good", and then reached out without saying a word to pull Zhou Faning and Zhou Qixi backwards.
At the same time, Zhou Xiaojin suddenly stood up and swung his bear claws towards Zhou Qixi. Fortunately, Chen Shuqing pulled Zhou Qixi away from the spot in time. Otherwise, under this attack, Zhou Qixi, who was unprepared, would have lost his life!
Seeing that Chen Shuqing had ruined his "good thing", Zhou Xiaojin immediately turned toward Chen Shuqing and let out a bear howl at her.
Seeing this terrifying scene, Zhou Qixi was not calm and immediately burst into tears. Zhou Faning trembled all over and said, "Xiaojin, what's wrong with you?"
At this time, Zhou Xiaojin seemed to have lost her wisdom as a human being, and regarded Chen Shuqing as an enemy and rushed towards her maniaclysm.
In the midst of lightning, four spiritual belts quickly extended from behind, wrapped around Zhou Xiaojin's limbs, and pressed her down on the bed.
Zhou Faning could not see the spiritual belt. In his eyes, Zhou Xiaojin fell on the bed unnaturally, his arms and legs were dancing around the bed. He suspected that someone had released a spell on his daughter and stopped him quickly: "Don't hurt my daughter!"
The one who can use this skill is naturally Shadali. After controlling Zhou Xiaojin, she came forward and explained to Zhou Faning: "Your daughter's demonization has been completed. At this time, she can no longer remember who you are. Everyone you see will be treated as an enemy. It is very dangerous. We have to take violent measures. Sorry."
Zhou Xiaojin struggled for a while, but he could not break free from the spiritual belt. He felt a softness all over his body, and his manic appearance weakened. He was still gasping for breath, and a scream that seemed to be inhuman in his throat.
Just as everyone was in a deadlock, an old man's voice suddenly came from the door: "Why are you so noisy in your room?"
The person who came was the owner of the inn - an old man named Gan. He was attracted by the cry of bears and cries, and he wanted to see what happened.
"No, I can't let anyone see Xiao Jin's appearance!" After saying that, Pu Zixuan immediately walked out the door, brought the door with him, and blocked Old Man Gan who happened to be coming at the door.
When Old Man Gan saw Pu Zixuan, he asked again: "Dandel, this room was ordered by you and your group, right? What are you doing inside? Why are you so noisy?"
"It's nothing, Mr. Gan." Pu Zixuan responded casually, "Aren't we a troupe from other places? I'm just rehearsing in the house, so don't bother them."
"Oh, are you practicing acting?" Old Man Gan looked at the closed door half-believingly.
As he was talking, a wave of bears wailing came from the room at an inappropriate time.
Old Man Gan asked in confusion: "So, what's going on with the bear's scream?"
There are so many beasts in the world, how many people can hear the cries of various beasts in person? Old Man Gan can tell that this is the cries of bears when he hears it. It seems that he has never seen bears appear in this area.
Pu Zixuan was already very nervous, but in the face of Old Man Gan’s questioning, he had to pretend to be nothing, and said, “This is an oral skill. There is an actor in our troupe who is particularly good at imitating the screams of various beasts. Not to mention bears, they can imitate even ghosts and wolves howls, hehe.”
"Even if this is the case, you can't be so loud! There are many other guests living in this inn. You will quarrel with others like this!" Old Man Gan blamed him and felt a sense of responsibility and resolutely said, "No, I have to go in and talk to them in person!"
After saying that, Old Man Gan was about to push the door. Pu Zixuan quickly blocked the door tightly with his body and refused, "No, they have rules when rehearsing, so you must not disturb me! Mr. Gan, please go back with confidence. I will explain the situation to them later and let them whisper."
When Old Man Gan saw that Pu Zixuan was blocking him, he felt a stubborn and pointed at Pu Zixuan and said loudly: "You have your rules, and our inn also have the rules of our inn! If you don't let go, don't blame me, Gan for being rude!"
Although I don’t know what Old Man Gan said “you’re welcome” meant, Pu Zixuan really didn’t want the situation to escalate. He immediately took out a ingot of silver from his arms and stuffed it into Old Man Gan’s hand. He said with a kind look: “Oh, Mr. Gan, our opera troupe is going to the capital to perform for the emperor. There are many performance contents in it. The common people cannot watch it. If you watch it, you will be beheaded! If you use this money to watch the opera, don’t make things difficult for us, okay?”
Pu Zixuan used both soft and hard work. When Old Man Gan heard the word "behead", he was stunned. When he saw that he had received such a large ingot of silver, he immediately found a way for himself, "Okay, since he is acting for the emperor, then rehearse whatever he should do. I won't disturb you."
After saying that, Old Man Gan dared not stay for more, for fear that he would hear more lines and would go downstairs quickly.
When Pu Zixuan saw Old Man Gan walking away, he breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and knocked on the door: "The old man has left, please open the door."
After Sun Xiaoshu opened the door, Pu Zixuan couldn't wait to enter the door. At this time, Zhou Xiaojin had stopped all movements and lay quietly on the bed. Zhou Qixi also stopped crying and asked, "What's the situation?"
Shadali explained: "In order to calm her down, I had to use some violence again. But don't worry, she just fell into a coma for the time being and would not be in danger of life."
Pu Zixuan nodded, and it seemed that the bear wailing sound he heard outside the door just now was what Shadali did to Zhou Xiaojin.
At this time, what Pu Zixuan was most concerned about was Zhou Faning's reaction, so he said to the poor father: "Brother, love is a must, I hope you understand more."
Zhou Faning nodded silently, but Zhou Qisheng pulled Chen Shuqing's arm and said anxiously: "What's wrong with my sister?"
Chen Shuqing then explained: "Hu Gu said that the bear demon he encountered next to the statue of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, although he looked half-human and half-bear, had no human consciousness. It means that the person who was cursed did not need to completely become a bear, and he would have completed the demonization. So, when Zhou Xiaojin opened his eyes just now, I realized the danger, and then pulled Zhou Faning and Brother Zhou away."
"But this is just a temporary relief of the danger. We don't know when she will wake up, and..." Pu Zixuan said, looking at the two boys wrapped in veils sadly, and said in a deep voice, "These two brothers, don't know when they will become like that."
After hearing this, Zhou Qixi asked in horror: "Will we become like our sister?"
Everyone remained silent. Zhou Faning suddenly knelt down to everyone and bowed: "Masters, save my three children, I'll kowtow to you!"
