Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 228 It Feeds on Kids

As Qin Yuming says, after the aura recovery, more and more changes take place on the earth.

Strange things happen all over the country, including some supernatural incidents.

Actually, handling supernatural cases is the responsibility of the Huaxia Supernatural Incident Unit. However, with such cases getting more, the Unit has been overwhelmed. Hence, many of the cases are passed to the Dragon Court.

It is not a problem for the Dragon Court to deal with such cases. Only a punch will eradicate the ghost.

As for some ghosts that have existed for a long time and had strong power, maybe two punches will be needed.

Yet, the Dragon Court members are not good at releasing the ghosts from purgatory. Even those who are specialized in handling the supernatural matters can’t do well in that, not to mention the Dragon Court members. After all, it remains unknown whether reincarnation exists or not. At least, no one has been able to come back to talk about what he has seen or heard after death by far.

However, Gao Ge thinks that reincarnation and hell are good things. Maybe some people believe that it is superstitious but some superstitions are necessary, for the so-called causal circle will really affect some people and make them believe that God is overseeing them so they must mind their behaviors. They will be afraid to be put to the 18th hell after dying. The conscience has more or less something to do with the whereabouts after death.

Of course, not everyone will be affected.

Yet, even only one or two people are affected and feel awed, it is a good thing anyway.

Gao Ge has executed the tasks of the Dragon Court for several times before, so Qin Yuming saves a lot of time on the way.

What makes Gao Ge puzzled is why Qin Yuming comes with him.

Although she claims that she must look after him for her worrying about Gao Ge, Gao Ge feels that this excuse doesn’t have a leg to stand on. He sighs and realizes that he may still be in the probation of the Dragon Court.

This time, there is a man and a woman coming with them. The man is about 40 years old with a poker face, who is not frivolous in talking and joking. The woman, only 25 or 26 years old, is at the realm of Qi-practicing, who can hardly hold a position in the Cultivation Academy. Therefore, Gao Ge wonders increasingly how this woman joined the Dragon Court.

Just like Gao Ge, they are both the members of Team Three, except that they call Qin Yuming as Boss.

Even the middle-aged man calls her that way.

Gao Ge starts to doubt whether Qin Yuming is well preserved. In fact, she is over 40 years old but it is not likely. After all, as women grow older, very few women’s breasts won’t become saggy.

Thinking of this, he can’t help staring at her breasts.

“Given that you are new here, I allowed you to look at me before. Now you are addicted to this?” Gao Ge’s petty action has been noticed by Qin Yuming.

Having been exposed, Gao Ge doesn’t look embarrassed. He grins and then looks away, muttering, “The green mountains are charming, and I would expect the feeling to be mutual for me.”

Squeak.

As she puts the brakes, the car stops.

“Get off. Run yourself.”

...

Luckily, the sun is not so strong in May. Of course, as a cultivator, he won’t find it hard to suffer even in the intense heat of summer.

What frustrates Gao Ge is probably that he is punished to run for over 30 li (one li equals to 500 meters) after a car for a slip of the tongue.

He is not exhausted but some of his power of stars has been used.

Many passers-by on the way take out their phones to film a video. However, in the times of aura recovery, Gao Ge’s behavior can only stir up some minor discussions online. That’s all.

Probably nowadays people become insensitive for being often stimulated. For example, last night, a netizen posted a video online saying that he saw a dragon whistling towards the sky. Although the people even with basic computer knowledge could tell that it was obviously photoshopped, the comments on the video were like that–I wonder whether the dragon meat tastes good.

Of course, some netizens with hearts of awe condemned the video uploader’s blaspheming against Huaxia’s totem.

Qin Yuming gets off the car to pass a bottle of water to him.

Gao Ge opens the bottle and pours the water into his mouth. His thirst is relieved eventually.

He gasps heavily and turns aside to look around with his eyes drifting away instantly, saying, “Have we arrived at the destination?”

“Yes.” Qin Yuming nods her head.

This is a pedestrian street of a country situated in Fu’an City, which is not far away from Jiangnan. It takes only two hours to drive here.

“What is going on here?” Gao Ge thinks that since they have arrived at the destination, it is okay for him to ask this question.

“You will know it soon.” Qin Yuming says that and turns around to walk into a store.

At the door of the store are a few wreaths and paper dolls. There is a sign that writes–One-stop Services for Funeral & Burial.

It is a bit dark in the store. There is a chair at the door, on which a little chubby girl is sitting. She is only four or five years old, as young as the age for kindergarten. With two braids, her face is round and there seem to be two bird eggs stuffed in her mouth. Upon seeing Qin Yuming, the little girl runs towards her with her big eyes full of delight.

“Pretty Sister, you are here again!”

“Yes!” Probably influenced by the little girl, Qin Yuming becomes cuter. She takes some candies, lollipop and chocolate out of her pocket and puts them into the girl’s pocket.

“Thank you, Pretty Sister!” The little girl is rejoiced and hastens to fetch a few candies. Her hands are full instantly.

A man wearing a grey gown walks over, who is about 40 years old.

“Boss.”

“Hi.” Qin Yuming nods her head and looks behind, saying, “That’s a new member of our team.”

“Hello.” The middle-aged man shakes hands with Gao Ge, “My name is Chen Long.”

Gao Ge can’t help asking, “Does Chen Long agree to this?”

The man doesn’t respond.

“Tell us about it. What has happened?” Qin Yuming fetches a chair and sits down. She is holding the little chubby girl, who is unwrapping the chocolate in her hand and eating it little by little.

“Pretty Sister, I know! Recently many kids are missing, including Fatty, Strong, and Monkey who likes bullying me!” The girl says while eating the chocolate, “Pretty Sister, are they caught by the traffickers targeted at kids?”

Gao Ge squats down grinningly and pats her head to comfort her, “Little girl, don’t be afraid. It is not so terrifying as you imagine. Maybe there is a monster who feeds on kids. It appears at night and preys on chubby kids.”

The little girl turns around to look at him with dirty hands and a wide-open mouth. She even forgets to chew the chocolate in her mouth. After a while, she finally comes to her senses and bursts out crying.
