"Girl, please calm down."
Lin Jiu waved his hands and took a few steps back. He didn't want to cause a unnecessary conflict.
"I will give you three seconds to explain now, otherwise I will let you calm down."
Jessica's fists clenched loudly, she walked two steps in front of Lin Jiu, and lightly stamped her feet, causing cracks in the ground.
This was because she had withdrawn her strength, otherwise with her body like a little superman, Yukihira Joichiro would have been able to decorate it again once he came back.
"this……"
Lin Jiu was shocked. Seeing that the girl in front of her had thin skin and tender flesh, there was clearly no trace of practicing martial arts. However, she stepped on her lightly and even broke the floor. This was such a strong force.
[Meet Jessica Jones for the first time and obtain a trace amount of black jade]
Um?
The sudden system prompt made Lin Jiu stunned again.
There must be something special about this girl, otherwise how could there be this separate reminder?
Compared to killing zombies in alleys, this [Black Jade] is too simple.
[From The Wrath of Jessica Jones, get a small amount of Black Jade]
"Will there be a prompt just when you are angry?"
Lin Jiu looked at Jessica thoughtfully, thinking secretly in her heart.
"Don't do it, don't do it. Dad went up to the second floor and said he would be down soon."
A Gang ran out of the kitchen and quickly stood in front of Jessica.
Compared to Jessica who knew nothing about Eastern mysticism, A Gang still had some knowledge about Taoist priests and ghosts.
After all, A Gang had heard a lot of things like Buddhist worship, the Night Parade of Ghosts, and monks catching ghosts. Even during holidays, he and his mother would go to the temple to worship.
Looking at the Taoist priest's dress in front of him and the yellow talisman on the wine jar, A Gang felt that it looked a bit like a classic Taoist ghost-hunting scene.
But whether this judgment is accurate or not, A Gang is not sure. In terms of true and false questions, A Gang has never been confident in himself.
At the moment, the only option is to stand between Jessica and Lin Jiu. If they don't want the conflict to continue to deepen, at least they have to wait for their father to come down and take a look at the situation before deciding whether to fight or not.
"It's so bad now. Dad is coming back and has to deal with it again."
Xing Ping Soma came out of the back kitchen with a bowl of noodles in his hand and looked at the messy store with a distressed look on his face.
At this moment, there was suddenly a noise upstairs, and there was a faint scream of a girl, and then it became quiet again.
"This is……"
Lin Jiuhuai took out the Bagua plate. After a while, the pointer pointed to the second floor.
The ghost-hunting compass is triggered, indicating that there is another ghost in the store, and the old gentleman upstairs is in danger!
Lin Jiu thought of this and rushed up to the second floor without delay, but Jessica stopped him in one step.
"I'm telling you, don't even think about running away!"
"Girl, don't stop me!"
Lin Jiu ignored the explanation, stretched out his hand to pull Jessica's arm, and dragged her to the side. He was about to cross over and rush to the second floor.
"Oh, how dare you do it!"
Jessica was going crazy because this Taoist priest actually dared to take action first.
And with just such a pull, she was pushed out. This shouldn't be the case.
"What a shame!"
Jessica was so angry that she didn't care about A Gang next to her at this moment. She thought about beating her first and then picked up the table next to her and wanted to give Lin Jiu a hard blow.
"The monsters and ghosts leave quickly~"
Dad's voice came at the critical moment, stopping the angry Jessica and attracting the attention of everyone in the store.
The father holding the dried puffer fish came down from upstairs. As the magic spell was chanted, a green mana stream restrained a little boy.
The light cyan kimono is embroidered with pink flowers, and she wears two furry hair ornaments. She is as cute as a butterfly and has an expressionless face.
She is Asuka, who also belongs to the Holy Lord Platycodon grandiflorum. She came to pursue the lost dead soul insect. Xudie was put into the wine jar by Lin Jiu, and Asuka was also bound by her father's qi magic.
Asuka struggled hard, but like a bug trapped in amber, the power of the spell made her suspended behind her father, unable to escape at all.
…
"Oops!"
Kikyo, who was walking slowly behind Matt, suddenly turned ugly.
Just now, she suddenly lost contact with the butterfly. Before she could react, another sensation came from the bird, which seemed to be bound by some kind of power.
Platycodon didn't dare to delay. If it was just the dead soul bug that was lost, Platycodon wouldn't be too nervous. Damage to a dead soul bug that doesn't have much intelligence is inevitable.
But birds and butterflies are different. The two of them have been serving Lord Sheng all year round and have been with Platycodon for a long time. Platycodon will never allow them to be harmed.
Sensing the vague positioning from Asuka, Kikyo quickened her pace and hurried towards the dining room.
Unlike the slow wandering before, Kikyo, with the blessing of spiritual power, walked through the streets at extremely fast speeds, and his whole aura became fierce.
"What's wrong?"
Matt was left behind by Kikyo. He hurriedly ran a few steps to catch up with Kikyo and asked in confusion.
She was fine just now, and Kikyo followed quietly. They chatted about things about the living dead, and walked together to the restaurant that Fudge mentioned before.
But Kikyo's face suddenly changed, and Matt could feel that Kikyo's whole state was different. It was a feeling full of chills, sharp and urgent.
"My two dead soul insects lost contact earlier, so I sent my two shikigami to check the situation."
Matt could hear the anxiety in Kikyo's tone, and there was nothing fake about it.
"Shikigami? What next?"
Matt is not sure what a shikigami is, but he can roughly understand it as a helper similar to a follower.
"The connection between the shrine maiden and the shikigami should be extremely close, but just now, the connection between the butterfly and me was cut off, and the bird was also trapped, and could only convey vague messages to me."
"I can only vaguely locate the birds. I don't know who caught them, but I have to rescue them before they are hurt."
"The other party's target is me. I can just go by myself. Ignore me and you can go back."
Platycodon held the long bow behind her back with her backhand, stimulating her spiritual energy and speeding up again.
She knew that she had fallen into a trap. From the loss of the dead soul insect to the trapped butterflies and birds, the other party must be trying to lure her there.
But Platycodon doesn't care. Even if there is an endless hell ahead, Platycodon will fight for the sake of butterflies and birds.
She has always been such a gentle person, whether she was a miko-sama when she was alive or an ominous thing resurrected as a resentment bone, she has never changed.
"Hey, how can you ignore this?"
Thinking to himself, Matt followed silently.
The fearless people of Hell's Kitchen also don't ignore danger.
Furthermore, after getting along for a short time, he felt that this miko lady did not look like a bad person!
…
"Hoho, now it's really interesting."
Zhao Li narrowed his eyes slightly, played with the double-barreled gun in his hand with one hand, and slowly raised the corners of his mouth.
"What's wrong?"
Liu Erye, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was holding a long-smoking gun and asked with some confusion.
"Dead energy is mixed, resentment is overwhelming, and the show is about to begin. If you go late, you will suffer a big loss!"
Zhao Li turned along the street, stepped on the accelerator, and was ready to join in the fun.
