Capítulo 1288: Chapter 1288: River God Above (34)
The person’s stomach had some unusual movement, as if something was swimming inside.
The person was so scared his face turned pale, thinking that those in front of him had done something to him, and stared at them in terror.
The thing moving inside the stomach quickly settled down, not as Xuan Ying had anticipated.
“It’s in the stomach, is your method possibly incorrect?” Chuzheng questioned.
Shouldn’t this kind of thing be in the bloodstream or veins?
Xuan Ying seemed to think Chuzheng made a point, unfazed by the failure, he calmly changed his approach.
Xuan Ying lit incense, and had Lang Sha force the person to open his mouth, the burning incense wafted into the person’s nose and mouth.
“Mm mm…”
Lang Sha felt that they really seemed like bad guys at this point, yet the two had no intention of changing their method.
The previously calm stomach reacted again, and the person’s face looked worse than before.
The initial mmm sound turned into retching noises.
Lang Sha didn’t dare let him go, and only did so when the person couldn’t stand it anymore and was retching violently, handing him a basin.
“Ugh…”
The person could not care about anything else, and began vomiting violently into the basin.
What came out almost made him collapse; he jumped up, knocking into a chair and fell to the ground.
“This… this…”
The foul smell made him want to vomit upon speaking again.
Chuzheng found the smell unpleasant, she leaned against Xuan Ying, carefully sniffing the scent on him.
Xuan Ying glanced at her small action from the corner of his eye, the girl gingerly rubbed up without wanting to be noticed.
The young girl caught him, immediately putting on a stern face: “What are you looking at?”
“Nothing.” Xuan Ying averted his gaze.
Lang Sha had already helped the person up: “Try vomiting again, maybe there’s more.”
The person trembled uncontrollably: “What have you… you done to me!!”
“It’s not us doing anything to you, it was the River God, we’re helping you.” Lang Sha explained earnestly.
“Ri… River God…” the person shook his head: “No, that’s impossible.”
“What else did we do besides hold you? Think carefully, could we silently stuff such a big loach into your mouth?”
The person couldn’t reply.
“Why don’t you try vomiting again?” Lang Sha kindly suggested.
The person was probably terrified, and although uncomfortable, he tried vomiting a little more as Lang Sha suggested.
All that came out was a bit of strange mucus, nothing else.
“Was it really not you guys?”
“Of course not, we’re trying to help you.” Lang Sha assured with a pat on his chest: “And Miss Chuzheng, Miss Chuzheng is a good person.”
The person glanced at Chuzheng, looking very skeptical…
Chuzheng: “…”
Lang Sha talked with the person for a while, and the person gradually relaxed, eventually agreeing to bring in his family.
“Will… my wife and children too?” the person asked in horror.
“It’s likely every person in Hanjiang City has it.”
“What?”
This alarm caused the person to immediately bring his wife and children.
This time, he watched them closely; besides lighting incense, these people didn’t do anything excessive.
Is it really possible for smelling incense to grow such a large loach in one’s stomach?
Thinking of that loach was nauseating, the thought of it being inside their bodies and being so large…
Lang Sha’s method was effective, letting the person’s family and friends experience it first, then letting friends tell more friends. One tells ten, and ten tell a hundred. Having personally experienced it, they wouldn’t disbelieve.
“The incense is not enough,” Xuan Ying said: “Let’s stop here for today.”
“What about us, we haven’t been checked yet,” the unchecked people in the shop immediately shouted anxiously, worrying about having similar things in their bodies.
“I won’t leave, you must save me.”
“Right, this isn’t fair.”
Xuan Ying eyed them, his gaze clearly showing impatience.
However, this crowd’s concerns only stirred greater commotion, insisting Xuan Ying remove the things from their bodies now.
“That thing has been in you for days, what’s there to worry about,” Chuzheng pulled Xuan Ying to the back, her face cold: “It’s not life-threatening, hurry up and leave, or else don’t blame me for being impolite.”
Chuzheng’s cold demeanor made the townspeople step back fearfully.
“You…”
“What about me?”
“Isn’t this your doing!!” someone suddenly questioned loudly.
Chuzheng: “…”
See!!
I shouldn’t have done anything good!
Barely worth the trouble at all.
This statement unexpectedly made sense to the crowds.
They began believing it was all Chuzheng’s conspiracy.
“Everyone, don’t say that, Miss Chuzheng is saving everyone…” Lang Sha’s voice was drowned out by the crowd.
“She’s saving us? I think she’s behind all this!!”
“Right!”
“No, it’s the River God,” Lang Sha tried hard to explain: “This is the work of the River God, Miss Chuzheng is helping everyone.”
“River God…”
“How is that possible?”
“Wasn’t the River God helping us before?”
“Can’t be, I think it’s her conspiracy.”
“Yes, yes.”
When the River God had them offer girls, everyone was terrified, and even when Hanjiang City was flooded, the River God helped once, so they thought the River God was good.
The logic made Lang Sha utterly speechless.
“Don’t be impulsive, it’s really the River God’s doing, if it were Chuzheng, why would she still want to help you…”
Lang Sha was again drowned out by the fervent crowd.
“Quickly get the things out of us.”
“Why were they treated first.”
“I’m not leaving!”
“Right, we’re all not leaving, you must treat us!”
Chuzheng held back the urge to hack someone, driving them all out at once.
Chuzheng stood at the doorway: “If you have the guts, don’t come tomorrow! Since I have a conspiracy, you just wait for death!”
The crowd: “…”
Chuzheng slammed the door with a ‘bang’.
The outside people pounded loudly on the door, Chuzheng waved a hand, the noise suddenly stopped, her face solemn as she walked into the backyard.
Lang Sha looked at the mess in the room, his mood not any better.
–
“Are you angry?”
Xuan Ying followed Chuzheng.
“No.” Why would she be angry, they were too loud, making her mood irritable.
A boss wouldn’t get angry so easily!
Not angry!
Xuan Ying said softly: “Humans are like that, always wanting to maximize their benefits.”
They did this task for free, and the materials to make incense weren’t all cheap.
But these people didn’t even think about that, they only wanted their own bodies cleared.
“They behave this way, but you still help them?” He helped purely because of her, he had no desire to save others.
“…” No, I don’t want to!
But it’s no use, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t do something so thankless!
Chuzheng glanced at Xuan Ying, tugging him by the collar into the room.
“Chu… mm…”
Chuzheng pushed Xuan Ying onto the soft couch, her body covering him.
She needed to take some interest to console her weak and pitiful self after all.
