Chapter 1317: Offended someone great (2)
Chapter 1317: Offended someone great (2)
Chief Mu was so scared that his legs started to tremble and cold sweat covered his back and face. His mind was telling him to run away but he couldn't even get up much less run away. The ghost sensing his fear smiled even wretchedly. It slowly climbed on the bed where Mu Bing was lying and then using the headrest of the bed, it jumped on the Mu family. "AHHH!!" Chief Mu who was the target of the ghost screamed. He was already old, seeing such a dangerous and disgusting thing attack him, he couldn't hold it any longer and ended up losing control of his bladder. A stinky, yellow patch appeared on his impeccable pants but Chief Mu did not care about it. He only wanted to get away from the thing that jumped on him.
"Chuntao save me!" He cried to his youngest son, Mu Chuntao however was just as scared as his father. He wanted to move but couldn't, he could only watch helplessly as the ghost landed in front of them and reached out to catch them.
However just as its hands reached towards Chief Mu's, a blinding gold light flashed in the room. The malicious spirit screamed and turned to look at Wu Jin, its dark and hollowed eyes glared at Wu Jin who took out another talisman and then threw it at the ghost.
He knew that this ghost was stronger than the one that he had faced in the past, thus he gritted his teeth and sacrificed another talisman.
Seeing that the man had another talisman, the malicious spirit screamed and then vanished from the ward. Once it left, the Mu family heaved a sigh of relief.
"My poor Li Li," Madam Mu who realized that her son was killed by a ghost, couldn't help but burst into tears. If they hadn't foolishly clung to their reputation and tried everything to save Mu Li, then her son would be alive!
Beside her, Master Mu was also aggrieved and regretful.
If he knew this was what was going on then he would have looked for a master and saved his eldest son as well.
The two of them hugged one another and cried while Wu Jin walked over to Chief Mu and took out another talisman. "These talismans cost me 60000 yuan, Chief Mu. I hope you will pay me for using four of these," Wu Jin handed the only extra talisman he had to Chief Mu and spoke to him coldly.
It wasn't that he was petty and miserly but Chief Mu had treated him with disrespect and degraded him at every possible turn. It would be a surprise if he was to treat this man kindly. When Chief Mu heard Wu Jin's voice, he snapped out of his daze. He looked at the talisman and then at Wu Jin, and before Wu Jin could understand what was going on, Chief Mu reached out and caught his wrist.
"Ah Jin! Help me! Help my family! Please save us!" Chief Mu cried pulling Wu Jin's wrist.
"Chief Mu, you are going to pull my hand. Let me go."
"I am not going to let you go! Ah Jin, I am willing to listen to everything you say, just help me! Please don't leave my family in a lurch like this!"
Back to the present.
"That's what happened," Chief Mu had no shame in admitting that he begged Wu Jin to arrange this meeting. He heard from his daughter-in-law that celestial masters had weird tempers and it was really easy for anyone to offend them. He did not want Song Yan to get angry at them and Wu Jin for this sudden meeting.
If she got angry then how would he get his hands on the talismans that would save the life of their family?
When Song Yan heard that it was the same ghost that was haunting Kang Jie, she could not help but frown. This ghost, seemed like it was rather strange. Though she understood that the grudge of a ghost was uncontrollable it seemed like this ghost was yet to lose its rationality.
It only reached out to the children who ranked at the top of the rankings. As many other children came out of the training centre but not everyone was killed. It was just the ones who were at the top who were getting killed one by one.
Song Yan narrowed her eyes. She looked at Chief Mu and said to him, "I believe that Vincent came to ask for your permission to let me cover and investigate this case, did you give him your permission?"
When Chief Mu heard Song Yan's words he stiffened, he completely forgot about this little detail. He smiled at Song Yan and then said to her awkwardly, "I ... I am sorry, Master Song. I was unaware of these things and did not agree with Mister Vincent. Is it fine if I permit you?" "I am afraid not," Song Yan shook her head and then said to Chief Mu, "The permission of the head of the special department is necessary in high-profile cases like these to make sure that my identity remains hidden and no harmful rumours spread against me. He is the one who is responsible for keeping me protected in case something goes awry. How can I investigate without his permission?"
The reason Song Yan said this was to make Chief Mu learn a small lesson. In the future, he would think twice before making things difficult for a newcomer just because he held his biased opinion against the newcomer.
When Chief Mu heard how important Vincent's permission was, he was filled with regret. If he had known that the man was such an important individual, he would have treated him kindly!
However no matter how regretful, Chief Mu was it did not change the fact that he had offended a great man.
His regret was only going to double when he found out that the man was none other than the Grim Reaper.
