"It seems like something happened over there!"
Li Fan was accompanying his concubine to a store specializing in Western gadgets, and bought a few new gadgets such as clairvoyance and pocket watches when he suddenly heard someone shouting outside.
"There is a lunatic killing people in the street, call the officer!"
"He's coming after him..."
Without further instructions, Xue An's servants carrying whistle sticks stepped forward to block the oncoming chaotic crowd.
They used their bodies to form a human wall to separate the chaotic flow of people.
Li Fan himself sat in the carriage, protecting the female family members next to him, but he also rolled up the door curtain and looked outside.
Sure enough, they saw a disheveled madman running towards him, covered in blood, and he would kill everyone he saw.
What made him frown slightly was that he could clearly see a red light like a flame covering his body, but the essence of the other party did not seem to have changed in any way.
That is not an evil spirit, but a human being!
A living person!
"Get him and take him back to the headquarters for interrogation."
Li Fan only took one look and gave orders.
He judged the strength of both sides very accurately, and he would not joke with the lives of his subordinates at critical moments, so when he ordered them to be captured alive, he must have a lot of confidence.
Sure enough, after Xue An met him, he knocked him down with three punches and two kicks.
In the rush, he received a knife on his arm, but it didn't break the defense of the dark gold demonic body at all, and bounced away with a clang.
This guy is pretty weak, but he looks crazy and ordinary people don't dare to mess with him.
Not long after, a leader of the Demon Suppression Division wearing general cheongsam uniform arrived with his people. It was Yan Yuandi who Li Chuan had brought back from Yelu City before.
"grown ups."
Having been prepared for a long time, Yan Yuandi was not surprised at all when he saw the commotion happening here, but calmly stepped forward to greet him.
Li Fang said: "This man suddenly became insane in the street and looks suspicious. Take him back for questioning.
The witnesses nearby were also brought back to find out what happened. "
"yes!"
Yan Yuandi said hello, but he did not take action himself, but asked his subordinates to do it.
Because he understood that Li Ao had other uses for keeping him.
Sure enough, after wandering seemingly aimlessly for a while, a frightened voice came from an alley on the east side of the West Market.
"Set fires and kill people!"
"Help!"
All business travelers avoided him.
However, Xue An, Yan Yuandi and others under Li Fan followed the sound and captured an angry young boy on the spot.
He looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, but he was as disheveled and crazy as the man before.
"It's really outrageous. Master, I just said a few words to you and didn't say anything back. How dare you kill people and set things on fire?
I really have a white-eyed wolf, I misjudged you! "
"You thief, you have deceived others too much. Sooner or later you will be punished!"
The master and the servant both yelled at each other.
Li Ao sent someone to make a brief inquiry and found out that the young man was a boy hired from the surrounding countryside to make a living by doing odd jobs at Mr. Zhou's house in the lane.
Today, because of a trivial matter, Mr. Zhou said something to him, and suddenly he became angry and hurtful.
"It's really scary. Why are the people of the Holy City so hot-tempered? They beat and kill at every turn."
Huang Ying, who came from Taoshan Town, had never seen the character of these arrogant people, and sighed with emotion.
She didn't know that in Li Fan's field of vision, red flames filled the surrounding area, already forming a mature form of anger.
It seems to have escaped the latent stage. If there is some fuel, the slightest spark will ignite.
Judging by ordinary strange laws, it is impossible to see why.
Even with Li Fan's current handling experience, he can't detect the clues without using the method of seeing the truth.
They also think that trivial matters can be left to the local county government officials to handle.
But now that he knew the essence of the matter, Li Ao couldn't let it go easily. He quickly asked Yan Yuandi and others to mobilize troops and horses to disperse the flow of people in the West City.
The invisible red light was like a flame, which had spread over most of the city. The walking crowds were like piles of firewood, igniting themselves and others.
Sure enough, it has entered a new stage.
However, what Li Fan saw was that due to different personal temperaments and characters, the reactions to this strange power were not consistent.
Just like drinking, some people are very bad at drinking and will go crazy and make unreasonable troubles when they get drunk.
Some people are fast asleep, very honestly.
These people infected with the strange power also behaved in a manner similar to their original characters.
Some people have strong personalities, are impulsive and irritable, and have attacks on the spot.
Some people swallowed their anger, and even though their whole bodies were glowing red, like blazing fire, they were still restraining themselves.
But one thing they have in common is that this fire of hatred continues to corrode their sanity.
When they are consumed to a certain extent, no one will be able to save them.
Those that occur quickly can greatly consume this power.
He who seems to be hard-working and has no temper is like a high-pressure gas pot that may explode more violently at any time.
"It seems that we have to take action to solve it!"
"If no one cares, it will definitely lead to disaster!"
He understood that it would have to cause a big fuss and kill people before the incident would be classified as a strange incident and large-scale response actions would be taken.
It is impossible for the Demon Suppressing Division to give early warning and respond.
At present, only oneself who has glimpsed this truth can guide things to a favorable situation.
If he doesn't take action to eliminate the source here, this strange power will soon spread out.
It's not like he's just doing nothing these days and wasting his time.
On the contrary, because ordinary methods had no effect at all, Li Fan also tried a method that seemed more risky but was effective, which was to use the lantern fire in his body to coerce and control this power. full content
He is trying to fuse the two weirdnesses together and mutate them into a brand new power that can be influenced and controlled by his own spiritual power.
This is essentially a recombination of strange sources.
Strange source of matter (lantern fire)
The source of strangeness (anger)
Where no one was watching, Li Fan's attempt began.
The people around him didn't feel anything was wrong at first, but after a moment, the flames of Li Ao's right arm faintly appeared, Xiao Qingyi's right arm also appeared, and the fire lotus mark bloomed, and then they began to be alarmed.
Before they could say anything more, bursts of source matter came out of thin air in the void and were included in the strangeness of the lantern fire.
(Different sources of stalemate, changing...)
(Combining from the same origin, merging...)
