Chapter 419: You Ain’t Going To Die, Stop Saying Your Last Words
Evangeline was about to leap at Ethan when she felt a sharp pain in her back.
She scratched her back and grabbed a burning white crystal.
Immediately, she flung the white crystal away. Anyway, it was all that Li Qing could do.
Just then, Evangeline realized that a large portion of her hand was festering. She did not know what the white crystal was, but it was hurting her greatly and continuously.
“Damn!” Turning around, Evangeline jumped out of the window and fled.
“Li, How are you?” Ethan quickly charged up to check Li Qing’s injury. “What was that?”
“I dunno… Barf…” Li Qing could not help but spit out a mouthful of dirty blood.
When Ethan saw the black blood, he carried Li Qing back into her room at once.
Four alarming black marks were branded on Li Qing’s chest. Ethan was at a loss, having never experienced anything like this before.
Suddenly, Ethan thought of someone. “Chen! Li, lie down first. I’ll call Chen.”
“Chen, there’s a big problem. Come here now!”
“Ethan… What time is it now? Don’t tell me you’ve been arrested. I’m not going to bail you out.”
“No, it’s Li. She’s hurt.”
“Auntie Li?” Chen Zhao was fully awakened. “What happened?”
“I… I don’t know how to describe this… We… We met a monster…”
“Are you being serious?”
“Yes. Absolutely! I’m not joking.”
“I’m coming.” Chen Zhao jumped up from the bed.
Fali could roughly feel Chen Zhao moving. “Chen, what’s happening?”
“Ethan’s sick. I need to go out.”
“At this hour?”
“Yes. You should go back to sleep.” Chen Zhao did not want Fali to worry for him.
Chen Zhao drove the small truck and arrived at Ethan’s motel in half an hour.
“Ethan, I’m here.”
Ethan ran down from upstairs. “Chen, great! Quickly follow me.”
When Chen Zhao saw Li Qing’s wound, he knew that it was abnormal.
He immediately took out an angelic crystal and cleared the filth around the wound.
Then, he removed the decaying flesh and sutured the wound.
“Mr. Chen…” Li Qing eventually woke up.
“Auntie Li, what happened?”
“Let me tell you about it. An hour ago, a very beautiful woman entered the motel and asked for a room. Li brought her to the room, but somehow they started fighting. I heard the noises and went up. The woman looked… somewhat weird, so I shot her twice, once in her chest and once in her neck, but she still looked terrifying… She did not seem to mind her wounds at all.”
“Do you have your gun with you all the time?”
“It’s under the counter. You know, I always stay open till very late, and there’s always the possibility of emergencies. The noises just now were really loud, so I brought the gun.”
“Mr. Chen.” Li Qing looked at Chen Zhao. It was clear that she was still very weak. “You’re also special, aren’t you?”
Chen Zhao hesitated. He knew what Li Qing meant.
After a while, he nodded, “I know some Western sorcery.”
“Can you help me to take out the stuff from that box?” Li Qing asked.
Following Li Qing’s instruction, Chen Zhao opened the box and saw many ancient books in it.
“These are?”
“Mr. Chen, I’m a successor of Qingyi Sect, but unfortunately, I’m the only one left. Please help me to pass down Qingyi Sect…”
Chen Zhao gave a bitter smile. Li Qing was just feeling desperate. How could Chen Zhao accept the inheritance just like this?
“Auntie Li, I’m afraid…”
“Mr. Chen, don’t reject first… I’m not asking you to make Qingyi Sect shine. You’re really powerful. I’m only asking that if you meet a suitable person in the future, please pass the books to the person.”
“Auntie Li, although you’re injured now, it’s not fatal. You don’t have to find a successor immediately.”
“Look at how old I am already. Even if I go out, nobody will become my disciple… Mr. Chen, please help me. I don’t want to see Qingyi Sect die in my generation…”
Chen Zhao smiled bitterly. “Okay, I’ll help you.”
In order to ask Chen Zhao to help, Li Qing even called herself old.
Li Qing was just over fifty and was not that old.
In modern society, she was, in fact, only middle-aged.
“Mr. Chen, while Qingyi Sect is not a big clan, there are many recuperative codices, many of which could be applied to medicine. If there’s anything you don’t understand, don’t hesitate to ask me.”
“Alright,” Chen Zhao nodded. “Auntie Li, do you know what attacked you earlier?”
“I can’t tell, but it should be a Western monster,” Li Qing answered. “The monster is not just odd, but also much stronger than a normal person. Mr. Chen, if you meet it, you mustn’t take it head-on. If you discover its whereabouts, you should find a few colleagues and fight it together.”
“Got it,” Chen Zhao nodded and took out another angelic crystal. “Auntie Li, please take this.”
“Mr. Chen, vitality stones are too precious. You’ve already given me one earlier, which I used to fight against the monster. If the monster is still outside, you might run into it one day. You should leave it for yourself.”
“Auntie Li, I still have more. Just take it.” Ignoring Li Qing’s objection, Chen Zhao placed the angelic crystal beside her pillow.
Then, Chen Zhao left the room. When Ethan saw Chen Zhao carrying Li Qing’s box, he asked curiously, “Chen, why are you holding Li’s things?”
“She gave it to me.”
“To you? Why not me? Did I not treat her well enough?”
“These are all TCM books. Do you want to take a look?”
“Oh, forget it. Chen, do you know what happened?”
“Nope, but you need to take good care of her for a few days. Call me if there’s a problem.”
“What if we encounter that monster again?”
“Prepare two more bullets.”
“Can you give me a proper suggestion?”
“No, I’m a doctor. What suggestions do you want from me?” Chen Zhao glanced at the ceiling. “Give me the surveillance video records here.”
“Okay… Why?”
“I’ll ask others about it. Maybe someone will know what to do…” Chen Zhao gave a random excuse.
