HELP

CHAPTER 101 - SAM AND HIS FAMILY

When Alex blew himself up in front of Wang Shouchen's house, the people in the community were all hurt by him. Because of this, most people had fainted in the hospital for a long time, even the lightest injury was due to three months of unconsciousness.

The Sam family was the closest to Wang Shouchen's house, and they were the most seriously injured. Fortunately, Sam was not at home at that time. He was outside, so he was not affected.

It wasn't until Wang Shouchen returned from Hua Xia that Amanda and her child Wood woke up and left the hospital.

Even when they were discharged, their condition had not improved, and lethargy, forgetfulness, headaches, neurasthenia had plagued Amanda and Wood.

At the hospital, the doctor prescribed a bunch of psychotropic drugs for Amanda and Wood, saying they could be cured.

Upon learning of this, Wang Shouchen took the initiative to give Amanda and Wood a diagnosis and treat them. He had also mentioned before that soul injuries aside from the lost Chinese book 'Zhu Yan Ke' could be treated, ordinary medical treatments were useless.

The medicine prescribed by the hospital couldn't be taken at all. It really was given to the mentally ill. Amanda and his child had no mental problems. The problem was the soul.

Fortunately, the whole Sam family knew the magic of Wang Shouchen. They believed that Wang Shouchen wouldn't harm Amanda and Wood, so they stopped prescribing the medicine and accepted Wang Shouchen's treatment.

Wang Shouchen actually didn't have a good way to treat his soul injuries. When there wasn't a good way to treat his soul wounds, he could only rely on healing to slowly recover from them.

As for how long he would recover or how much he would recover, only God knew. Some people may recover in a month, others may spend the rest of their lives doing so.

Because of her age and physical condition, Amanda was in a serious condition. She slept for fifteen hours a day, but she couldn't do any housework. She couldn't do any physical activities. From time to time, she would fall asleep.

Wood was slightly better, as he could control himself from falling asleep at all times. However, his memory was poor, he had forgotten many things, he often had headaches, and he was taking more and more painkillers.

Wang Shouchen didn't have any special medicine for their condition. He could only use the Three Flowers Gathered Talisman to help them recover and use the Spirit Concentrating Talisman to boost their spirits.

This method could not directly affect the soul, but it could also help in the recovery of the soul's injuries. It was much faster than the recovery of the soul. This was also one of the options.

However, Wang Shouchen had passed on a copy of the Huangting Scripture, a Taoist classic.

Of course, as an important scripture of the sect, the method of cultivation couldn't be passed down to outsiders. Therefore, Wang Shouchen had only taught him the Immortal Soul section of the Yellow Court's Inner View Jade Scripture.

To cultivators, just cultivating this small section of the soul is of no use at all; it is impossible to cultivate their origin soul. And in this society, where the spiritual energy was sparse, the spiritual materials used for cultivation were practically extinct. There were very few who could cultivate divine abilities.

For something that could not even be cultivated by cultivators, if ordinary people were to cultivate it, that would only allow their mind to be better and have enough energy. There would be no other uses for it.

Furthermore, those who cultivated this scripture were foreigners. They didn't even understand Chinese, let alone such obscure and incomprehensible Chinese. If Wang Shouchen hadn't been ravaged by his master since he was young, and if he didn't forcefully memorize it, he wouldn't have been able to read the scriptures passed down by his ancestors.

It took a lot of effort for Amanda and Wood to learn to read The Jade Sutra of Huang Ting Yu. The purpose of Amanda and Wood's chanting was also to nourish their souls and speed up their recovery through the mysterious powers they produced while reciting the scriptures.

This was all that Wang Shouchen could do for Amanda and Wood, and it was all he could think of. As for the other neighbors, even if Wang Shouchen wanted to help them, there was nothing they could do.

With limited resources and limited abilities, Wang Shouchen was not a saint. Helping two people was already his limit. The other neighbors could only pray for themselves. After all, this was their fate.

Wang Shouchen had a way to deal with the Farrassen incident, but it couldn't be implemented. After all, it was the school's children who had the luck to do so.

...

That day, Wang Shouchen examined Amanda and Wood's health, gave them a glass of water with a tri-flower top glyph, and told them to recite their sutras on time before leaving.

But the moment he stepped out of the door, Sam caught up with him and blocked Wang Shouchen's path with a troubled expression.

Xiao Chen, Mister Taylor, I will be inviting you over to see him tomorrow. His father is sick, I would like to invite you over to have a look.

When Sam said these words, his eyes constantly flickered, his face was full of worry, and he looked a little uneasy and irritated.

Wang Shouchen thought Sam was worried about Amanda and Wood, so he didn't think too much about it. As for the matter with Taylor, he had already said that he didn't want to interfere.

Sam, as I said before, there's nothing I can do about Mr. Denny's illness, even if the last time I used the monster's flesh and blood was to delay Mr. Denny's death. He really is reaching the end of his life, even deities can't save him."

Sam heard Wang Shouchen's words and was very disappointed, but he couldn't do anything about it. Since Wang Shouchen had already said there was no other way, there was even less that he could do it. Thus, after Wang Shouchen left, Sam had to call Qin Le to inform him of Wang Shouchen's decision.

Mr. Taylor, I really can't change Wang Shouchen's mind. You know, I'm just his neighbor, I can't change his mind and his decision!

On the other end of the phone, when Taylor heard Sam's reply, he slammed his fist on the table and roared at Taylor.

Don't tell me it's useless. When you were collecting money from me, you never said that you couldn't find Wang Shouchen! I won't be able to see Wang Shouchen until ten tomorrow morning. Your corpse will be thrown into the sewers at ten tomorrow night! I, Taylor, am someone who keeps my promises, I promise I will keep my promises! "

Sam wanted to explain more, but there was already a busy signal from the other end, and Taylor had hung up, not giving Sam a chance to speak.

After hanging up the phone, Sam was so anxious that he almost cried. Taylor appeared to be the boss of a large consortium. In fact, his family was one of the earliest gangs in Manhattan.

Although they had been bleached out in the past hundred years, in a place like New York, it wasn't too hard for the Taylor family to kill someone.

Sam was now regretting his decision to not covet Taylor's reward for treating Taylor's father. He also wanted Taylor to pay a very small price for two precious prescriptions.

Now that there was a problem with the drug development, Taylor could not solve it. He wanted Sam to find Wang Shouchen and help them solve it.

Sam had tricked Wang Shouchen, and the money Taylor had given him had been squandered on his lover, not even giving him a single cent. Now, he still wanted Wang Shouchen to help him do research at Taylor's place. This was something completely impossible.

But what would he do if he didn't do what Tyler wanted and his life was in danger?

Wang Shouchen didn't know what had happened to Sam. After returning home, he continued to draw incantations in the house. After a few days of drawing, Wang Shouchen would soon be able to finish his work.

Wang Shouchen was busy in the grocery store the next day as usual, but before he even opened the door, he received a call from Amanda.

Xiao Chen, quickly save Sam, save Sam! He was taken away by someone and told you to go to the Tower. If you don't go, they will kill Sam!

Wang Shouchen was also shocked when he heard Amanda's words. He thought back to the last time he saw Taylor at the City Peaks Tower. Was it one of Taylor's men who took Sam away?

Thinking of this, Wang Shouchen knew why Amanda wanted him to save Sam.

Yesterday, Sam said that Taylor wanted to see him. It must be that Wang Shouchen didn't agree to Taylor's request, and Taylor used him to threaten Wang Shouchen. Wang Shouchen understood what had happened and felt rather helpless.

Why is this person so stubborn? He already said he was powerless, and he still can't let go.

However, for the sake of Sam's safety, Wang Shouchen still decided to go and take a look. If there was anything he wanted to say in front of Taylor, he would make it clear. The most important thing was to bring Sam back.

But Wang Shouchen wouldn't think this way if he knew the truth of the matter.

After arriving at the City Peaks building, Wang Shouchen saw the black bodyguard who brought him here last time.

Mr. Wang, you are here. We will lead you up. Mr. Taylor is waiting for you.

The two big men attentively opened the elevator door for Wang Shouchen and cordially shielded him behind. Wang Shouchen had fought with ghosts since he was young. How could he not understand that the two black men had blocked his path of retreat, preventing him from leaving.

Wang Shouchen felt that it was funny, and he blamed Taylor for making a big fuss out of nothing.

I'm already here, you can still run! If I want to run, you won't be able to stop me.

Wang Shouchen arrived at the 30th floor and stepped out of the elevator. Before he could say anything, he saw Sam kneeling in front of the elevator door, covered in blood. Beside him was a woman with a head of blonde hair. She too was kneeling on the ground, covered in scars.

The moment he saw Wang Shouchen, Sam almost cried. He had never thought that he would think so highly of a person. He even missed a man.

Xiao Chen … You... Woo … Here it comes … Son, save … Save me.

Wang Shouchen frowned as he looked at the black man in the corridor with a puzzled expression.

What's the meaning of this? If you wanted to injure them, you …

Mr. Wang, Mr. Taylor invites you in. Mr. Taylor doesn't like people being late. It's 10: 05, you have retreated to 5 minutes!

Wang Shouchen didn't care about Taylor. He came to pick up Sam, and now that Sam was beaten up like this, how could he be willing to give up?

Xiao Chen, go beg Mr. Taylor, don't let them kill me, don't let them kill me! You want to save me, save me …"

Before Sam could finish his words, a burly man next to him smacked him hard in the face, making both Sam's and Steamed Bun's faces swell again. Then he took out his gun and pointed it at Sam's head.

CHAPTER 102 - TAYLOR INVITED

Wang Shouchen would never have thought that he would turn into a corpse just as he was about to come to pick her up! Wang Shouchen suddenly threw out the small stone he had been playing with in his hand.

It directly hit the Gunner's gun and sent it flying. Following that, Wang Shouchen's entire body shot out. In an instant, it was Sam's time. He put one hand on the big man's arm and the other on the big man's throat.

As long as Wu Shou Chen was willing, he could break the big man's neck in one go. However, Wang Shouchen did not kill him. He only coldly asked what he wanted to know.

Why do you want to kill people? We already know that Mr. Denny's illness can't be cured, so why are you still bothering him?

The big guy in the corridor didn't say anything. He just took out his gun and pointed it at Wang Shouchen and Sam, as well as the woman kneeling beside him.

The woman on her knees saw someone pointing a gun at her and immediately shouted.

Don't kill me, don't kill me, I don't know anything. I have nothing to do with Sam, I will return all of Sam's money, don't kill me … I don't want to die yet... I'm only 25... I don't want to die …

Xiao Chen, I beg of Mr. Taylor, don't let him kill me. My child is still young, and Amanda is still sick. Wood still needs to take care of her. Xiao Chen … Please …"

At that moment, the door at the end of the corridor opened, revealing a beautiful secretary.

Mr. Taylor asked Mr. Wang to come in.

Hearing his secretary's words, the burly man in the corridor put away all the guns and returned to his original position. Wang Shouchen also let go of the captured man, but he didn't leave.

I don't want to see Taylor. I can't help Mr. Denny's illness. Let us out of here, or I'll call the police!

Mr. Wang, Mr. Taylor did not invite you here because of Mr. Denny's illness. Mr. Taylor didn't want to do anything to Mr. Sam either, but Mr. Sam was very uncooperative. But don't worry, Mr. Wang, for your sake, we won't trouble Mr. Sam anymore.

The secretary said a few words and gestured for the door to open. Sam, who was standing beside Wang Shouchen, nodded his head.

Xiao Chen, go see Mr. Taylor and beg for his forgiveness. I don't want to die yet, I don't want to die yet …

Wang Shouchen followed his secretary into the room. Taylor was still sitting behind the old table as usual, holding a cigar in one hand and a glass of wine in the other. His face was expressionless and he looked relaxed.

However, there was a row of fellows with their heads lowered standing in front of his boss. The spilled wine on the table was enough to show that Taylor was currently in a state of raging fury.

Dr. Nathan, who had been treating Danny, was also in the office. He was standing at the front of a group of white coats, his face flushed and his body smug.

Nathan wasn't angry, he was ashamed after Tyler had said it.

Seeing Wang Shouchen enter, the anger on Taylor's face immediately disappeared as he enthusiastically invited Wang Shouchen to join them.

Mr. Wang, please sit, sit!

Taylor turned to the secretary who opened the door and said, Akali, why don't you pour Mr. Wang a cup of tea? Take my best tea! Don't fool Mr. Wang with a defective product, he's an expert!

Wang Shouchen hurriedly waved his hands, rejecting Taylor's warm welcome.

Mr. Taylor, don't be so polite, you invited me here for your father's illness! To be honest, I'm really powerless. Please don't make things difficult for Sam, he doesn't know much about medicine, and he might have exaggerated my ability when he came into contact with you. After all, Chinese medicine is very mysterious and people often treat it as a magical spell, right?

Heh … Heh …

Taylor smiled and put his wine and cigar in the ashtray.

Looks like Mr. Wang still doesn't know why I invited you here. In that case, Dr. Nathan, please tell us why we invited Mr. Wang here.

Wang Shouchen was puzzled. Didn't Taylor come to him to beg his father, Danny? That's what Sam said last night and Amanda this morning!

Mr. Wang, you misunderstood. Mr. Danny's condition is very good, even I am very surprised by your medical skills. Although I still think that Chinese medical skills are unscientific, you have really broadened my horizons. However, you are not invited here to compliment you, but to consult you about the medication you gave Mr. Denny."

The pill from before? Is there a problem? As I said before, the medicine squeezed Mr. Denny's potential, overdrawn his life, and didn't cure his illness. People who ate it only temporarily suppressed their illness, and while they looked like living people, they overused their human potential, putting them in a situation where they were strong and weak on the outside. That's what I said before, right?

Mr. Wang, you're right. We all remembered and recorded it. We know you didn't exaggerate, and the truth is the same. However, we would like to know, why does your medicine have no effect on others? We tried the same drug thousands of times, but none of them worked. Why is it that the medicine you gave Mr. Denny worked, and that I fed Mr. Denny no more? Mr. Wang, can you explain it to me?

After hearing Nathan's words, Wang Shouchen was confused as well. He didn't know why they had tried the medicine he concocted. In the theory of Chinese medicine, one side was for each person. One side was for each time, while the other side was for each time.

The same disease, different people, different seasons, different sex, different ages, even different people with different fat and thin people have different prescriptions.

Therefore, the best doctor in China would only look at the ancient formula, and would not follow the ancient formula completely. This was also the reason why Chinese medicine required a large amount of clinical experience in order to cultivate truly skilled doctors.

This was also the reason why Chinese medicine gradually declined and was not as glorious as ancient times. What modern people do is fast, even the Chinese medicine is fast, did not precipitate the hundred zhang tall building from the ground ah!

Furthermore, everyone's needs for medicinal herbs were different. Even though medicinal herbs could cure illnesses, they could treat illnesses with the same medicine, so they might be able to injure people as well. It all depended on the means of the physician to treat his illness or to injure him.

But Wang Shouchen didn't care about that. It would be a waste to tell Nathan and the others.

He was more concerned that Taylor had fed Danny another dose of his own medicine. This kind of medicine that overused one's potential and activated one's life force. The first time it was taken, it would only cause a person to reflect on themselves. The second time it was taken, it would cause the intestines to be penetrated.

How could Taylor treat his father in such a manner? When Taylor had invited him over, this was not the case with Taylor! After all, Taylor's heart was so vicious that Wang Shouchen would never drug Mr. Denny.

Mr. Taylor, you can find any doctor who knows Chinese medicine to answer Dr. Nathan's question. So I won't waste any more time. Since you said that Mr. Denny was all right, I took Mr. Sam away.

From the moment he saw Sam, Wang Shouchen knew that this was a 'Hongmen Banquet', but he never thought that Taylor would let Wang Shouchen leave like this. Just as Wang Shouchen was about to leave, the bodyguard in the room had already taken out his gun and pointed it at him.

These bodyguards were probably under the influence of Wang Shouchen's powerful men. They were afraid that Wang Shouchen would suddenly attack and harm Taylor!

Seeing the bodyguard's actions, Taylor gently waved his hand. The bodyguards put down their guns, and his face was full of smiles.

Mr. Wang, I've also talked to the doctors who know Chinese medicine about Mr. Nathan's problem. They saw your prescription, but didn't know about its effects, so they spent a lot of effort to invite you here today. They just want to know, why are other medicines useless against others, and why is it useless against my father?

Since you want to know, let me explain it simply. In the theory of Chinese medicine, to cure a disease, one must first find the root of the disease, causing the source of the disease. The same disease could be caused by different causes, so the treatment methods were different, and the medicinal herbs they ate were also different. Thus, the same medicine was a cure for an illness in one person and a killing poison in another. Do you understand, Dr. Nathan?

Tyler didn't know anything about medicine. He looked at Nathan. Nathan smiled and nodded, not refuting.

Mr. Wang Shouchen, I know the theory you're talking about. Ever since I took your prescription, I've researched it. Unfortunately, I don't get the gist of it. According to the prescription of the medicine, there is a very strong vitality, but also a strong poison. After feeding the drug to the tester, everyone had a different reaction. Some of them were poisoned, while others had complications. But there were no patients like Mr. Denny, who could get out of bed with medicine and be like ordinary people. So, Mr. Wang, can you join our team and change this prescription into one that's suitable for ordinary people to eat?

At this point, Wang Shouchen finally understood their intentions. Taylor and Nathan wanted to cooperate with them in the study of drugs. Thinking of this, Wang Shouchen suddenly realized that Taylor's first invitation to him might have been for the prescription and not to save his father at all. Even if he did, it was also by the way. It might not have been what Taylor wanted, so he was locked up for three days before being released.

I'm sorry, Mr. Taylor, but I'm not interested in your research, Dr. Nathan. I think I should leave!

Mr. Wang, don't be in such a hurry to leave! We haven't even discussed the price yet! How about this! As long as you are willing to cooperate with my research, after I succeed in researching medicine, I will give you 5 million dollars. As for the salary during the research period, your weekly salary will not be less than 2000 dollars, how about that?"

When Nathan heard Taylor's offer, his eyes turned red and he stared at Wang Shouchen with wide eyes. It wasn't that Nathan was jealous of Wang Shouchen. It was just that he didn't expect Wang Shouchen to have such a huge amount of money in his eyes.

To Taylor, the prescription was worthless, and the facts proved it. Even if he got the prescription, he wouldn't be able to understand the principle behind it, and he wasted a lot of time and money.

If he had Wang Shouchen, things would be different. First, Wang Shouchen knew many old prescriptions. Second, he understood the pharmacology behind the prescription. He could cure illnesses, and he could cooperate with research. That was why Wang Shouchen was worth so much money.

Mr. Taylor, I may have to disappoint you. I'm not interested in money, and I don't even understand English. I don't know how to do scientific research! I'm sorry, I'm taking Sam away now.

Mr. Wang, you think the conditions are not good enough? We can still negotiate it, but our team really needs you! How about this, I'll decide on behalf of the board of directors. If we succeed in researching this medicine and produce it in large quantities, we'll give you a profit of 10 cents per pill. What do you think?

CHAPTER 103 - THE HOMICIDAL MANIAC IS HIS FATHER

After Taylor said this condition, Nathan, who was standing by the side, became anxious.

He had already started researching this medicine before Wang Shouchen's prescription appeared. He had already achieved important results on this. After Wang Shouchen's prescription appeared, not only did it break through the bottleneck, it also entered the critical stage. It could be said that Nathan was the big contributor to this medicine. But Taylor didn't say anything about giving him a commission.

However, now that Taylor had given Wang Shouchen such a huge amount of wealth, even Nathan was unable to calm down.

However, Wang Shouchen had no interest in the money Taylor gave him.

There was an old saying in China, to be courteous to others, one must have a request! Taylor must have met with a huge problem during his research and development, so he had no choice but to ask for Wang Shouchen.

It was a pity that Taylor did not know any Taoists like Hua Xia. They really did not like money, and no matter how much money they spent, it would not be attractive to them.

Wang Shouchen was that kind of person. When Taylor threw away the money, his position in Wang Shouchen's heart had already collapsed, so Wang Shouchen didn't want to bother with him anymore. He didn't even want to think about the development of the drug.

Besides, Taylor was an unfilial son, and Wang Shouchen hated this kind of people, so he wouldn't cooperate with him.

Mr. Taylor, I appreciate your kindness, but I, Wang Shouchen, do not have the ability to earn your money. You still have to invite Gao Yingbai. I won't disturb you anymore!

Taylor's expression instantly turned malevolent, and the cigar in his hand was squeezed into two. Ever since Taylor had taken control of the family, there had been no one like Wang Shouchen who had given Taylor face.

Taylor sincerely wanted to invite Wang Shouchen to join his team this time. He would rather have Nathan, a famous scholar expert in the industry, burn in the fire to praise Wang Shouchen, but Wang Shouchen didn't give him any face at all.

Suddenly, Taylor laughed and whispered something to Wang Shouchen, who was about to leave.

Mr. Wang, you can leave. But Sam might not live. Do you know why I asked you to come? Sam took my money. He took a lot of it! He hasn't done anything yet, so I'll take back the money with interest.

Wang Shouchen was puzzled. He really didn't know about Sam receiving money. But even if Sam took the money, it wouldn't be a big deal. Sam did the job of a broker. It was normal for him to take part of the commission after he found Wang Shouchen a job. After all, he couldn't let others waste their time on him, right?

It's just a little bit of red, it's no big deal! Sam usually treats me well. I can't let him work for nothing! You don't have to tell me that, I believe in Sam. "

Mr. Wang, you are really generous. But do you know how much Sam charged me last time? A total of 250 thousand blades, he promised. You will be able to cure my father and also promised that I will obtain a way to bring him back to life. It is clear that Mr. Sam did not tell you everything, and that I cooperated with him in some way.

Hearing this, Wang Shouchen's voice also turned cold. He was not angry with Sam for taking the money. He was angry that Sam had lied to him and contacted an outsider to plot against him.

What are you trying to tell me?

Mr. Wang, why do you want to cooperate with someone who doesn't have good faith? Last time he took away 250 thousand dollars, then went to Thailand with his lover, to China, to Japan for a luxury tour for half a month, and you? Something happened at home and you actually have to rely on insurance to rebuild your house. Right now, you don't have any furniture or electrical appliances in your house! Our Mr. Sam did not give you a penny. Mr. Wang, let's cooperate! I, Taylor, would never be as greedy and dirty as Sam. "

Wang Shouchen realized that Sam had such a scoundrel side to him. To think that he was treating him as his closest friend in the United States.

However, he didn't expect that he would become the kind of tool he could use to earn money. It was the kind of tool that was sold and even helped him count money. He was still thinking about how to save him when he arrived!

Wang Shouchen suddenly felt incomparably forlorn in his heart. He instantly felt that there was no longer any love in this world.

Seeing Wang Shouchen's expression constantly changing, Taylor raised his eyebrows and his voice was filled with joy.

Mr. Wang, we will definitely become a good shield, a good partner. I have the money and you have the technology. In the future, we will have a place in the medicine market around the world."

At this point, Taylor walked to the French window, pointed at the outside of the building and said excitedly.

As long as we work together, the outside world will be ours sooner or later! We …"

Wang Shouchen didn't listen to Taylor's grand and ambitious dream. He only felt depressed in his heart.

Taylor didn't know that if Wang Shouchen really wanted money, it wouldn't be a problem at all. Relying on his Dao arts, he became a millionaire. Billionaires weren't a problem, so he still used all of his effort to do research together with Tai Gong.

Thank you, Mr. Taylor, for telling me this. But Sam is my friend, and though he's a bastard, he's still my friend. As for your partnership plan, I'm not interested, and I don't want to be a billionaire. Let me get Sam out of here.

Pah!

Taylor smashed the cup in his hand onto the ground and looked at Wang Shouchen fiercely.

You don't drink the forfeit. Today, neither you nor Sam can think of leaving this place. If you don't research the medicine, you can stay here for the rest of your life!"

Taylor finally lost patience and became hostile. From the moment Wang Shouchen saw Sam, he knew it was a 'Hongmen Banquet', so he was already prepared. He held a few fine needles in his hand.

Just from the name of the needle, one could tell it was a needle as thin as a cow's hair. In the hands of an expert, when the needles were used, they could be compared to flying needles or flying nails. This was a true killing move without a trace. Those who dared to use this hidden weapon were all powerful masters.

Wang Shouchen only dared to take out the needles because his time and energy had greatly improved and he had also taken back his magical equipment from Hua Xia.

The reason why Wang Shouchen could use the needle was not only because he was thin, but also because the needle was very secretive. Even if he checked it out, it would still be treated as a metal thread.

When used, the inner eye is hard to see and very hard to defend. Even if it were to pierce into a person's body, it would normally not feel too much pain. However, the needle would flow along with the blood in the person's body, making it impossible for them to find the needle that was shot into the person's body.

The worst part of the needles was that they were extremely difficult to remove. Generally speaking, as soon as a fine needle is injected into a blood vessel, it immediately follows the flow of blood.

If he tried to purify the poison, the poison on the needle would be a deadly weapon. If there was no poison, the needles would also circulate through the blood to the heart and brain, killing people.

It was not easy to remove the needles from his body, they were too thin and could not be found by inserting them into his blood vessels. The needle can only be sucked out of the body if a magnet is used to match the tiny cow-hair needle. There was no other way.

Wang Shouchen had already made his decision. If Taylor wanted to keep him here and threaten his own life, then Wang Shouchen would really start a massacre.

As for the matter after the murder, Wang Shouchen didn't want to think about it anymore. There are some things you have to face bravely if you can't avoid them. Even becoming a homicidal maniac is better than being killed by others. To live on, and to see his master again, to live on, that was the only possibility.

As for Taylor, he had already been secretly sentenced to death by Wang Shouchen. Wang Shouchen did not believe that Taylor would be able to escape the needles of the mini ox.

However, at this moment, the door to the room was slammed open. One of them, a heavily injured fellow with a bloodied body, staggered in.

Old... Boss... Danny First... Mister... He ate someone! He ate humans …"

After saying this, the blood man that rushed into the room immediately fell to the ground, no longer breathing.

Everyone was startled by this scene. They just couldn't understand how Danny could eat someone!

At this moment, they heard the sound of people changing their positions outside, mixed with the screams of others. Taylor's bodyguard was very professional, so he immediately entered the room and closed the door.

Fortunately, these bodyguards didn't receive Taylor's order to kill Sam. They didn't let Sam and his lover die on the outside, and were dragged inside the house as well.

Quick, quickly call out the surveillance cameras!

Nathan's voice was the first to shout from the house. In an instant, everyone in the room quieted down as if they had found their main pillar of support, and their gazes landed on Nathan and Taylor.

The monitor was quickly called up and everyone stared at the screen. They saw a humanoid monster that was almost three meters tall rampaging around the crowd.

The monster was very scary. Although its appearance was similar to a human's, when it walked on four legs, its arms and legs were thicker than a human's. It could even bend backwards.

On closer look, the monster's head and body were covered in blood and tender skin. It was obvious that the monster had just shed its skin. There were wounds all over its body that were continuously flowing out.

Looking at the way this monster walked on its hands and feet, it was like a reptile chasing after all the living beings in front of it. After catching a person, it would first tear off their neck, and through this method, break their windpipe, cut off their veins, kill their prey, and then absorb their blood.

After a while, there was no one on the monitor anymore. The person sitting in front of the monitor immediately adjusted their surveillance, wanting to find the monster that killed them.

At that moment, Nathan pointed to the video and sat down on the floor.

Isn't that Danny? It's Danny! He has become a monster!

As soon as Nathan finished speaking, the monster reappeared in the monitor. However, no one really wanted to see him. He was just outside the room where everyone else was. There was only one door between him and everyone else, and it was a door that wasn't too solid.

Before the monster could attack, Sam's mistress, crying, got up from the ground.

Let me out! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!

the woman said, running for the door. Even though everyone knew that she wanted to run for her life and live, wasn't running to the door sending her into the mouth of a monster?

Bang! Bang! Bang …

CHAPTER 104 - SWEEP EVERYTHING AWAY

Several shots rang out, and the woman who had run to the door was killed two meters away. Everyone then heard Taylor's gloomy voice.

Everyone, don't panic, I have set up a team of elite mercenaries in this building. I've already sent out a distress signal just now, and they will be here soon to save us, so now everyone needs to listen to my orders. If anyone runs around again, she will be the role model.

In order to let everyone see clearly, Taylor fired another shot at the dead woman, who was already miserable enough to be hit by the bullet and had a hole punched in her body.

Under Taylor's threat, the people in the room all became silent. No one dared to make a sound, and the room became terrifyingly quiet. At this moment, Wang Shouchen came to Sam's voice and gently helped him undo the 'Strangling Dog' on him.

Without even looking at his dead lover, Sam followed Wang Shouchen to the side and looked towards the door. The monsters outside the house didn't seem to notice what was going on inside the house. They were wandering around but didn't come in.

At this moment, Wang Shouchen could clearly see that the woman's soul was slowly struggling out of her body, attempting to break away from the lifeless one.

Wang Shouchen sighed. He looked at Sam before him, then looked at the dead woman, and quietly started reciting that Rebirth Curse for her.

The woman was killed, a dead ghost, but before she died, she was too weak, too weak, her soul struggled out of her body with difficulty after death, and her ghost did not produce too much resentment, so she was a very weak ghost.

However, anyone who died would have to go through a trial and tribulation before their soul could leave their body. It was precisely because it was difficult for the dead ghost to leave the body that the pain it suffered was ten times, a hundred times greater than that of ordinary ghosts, causing it to be full of resentment. However, this woman was an exception today.

Although the [Rebirth Curse] that Wang Shouchen chanted for women could not dispel the resentment and pain of ghosts, it could allow ghosts to quickly escape from their bodies and lessen the suffering. This was the only thing Wang Shouchen could do to help a woman.

Taylor had taken a liking to Wang Shouchen and did not stop him from chanting the Rebirth Spell. Instead, he admired Wang Shouchen's calm demeanor.

With Wang Shouchen's character of not loving money, not being afraid of power, and not being knowledgeable about the general situation, Taylor's appreciation of Wang Shouchen went up a notch.

From Taylor's point of view, there were too many people who were flattering him and trying to curry favor with him. People like Wang Shouchen were extremely rare, which made them very rare.

Mr. Wang, as long as you agree to work with me and my mercenaries arrive, they will protect your safety. You saw how powerful this monster is. Without my protection, you will be in danger …"

Wang Shouchen ignored Taylor and only opened his eyes after he finished chanting the Rebirth Spell. He looked at Taylor and only smiled faintly.

Mr. Taylor, you don't have to worry about my safety. However, I can see that your mind is in a mess and your eyes are dim. You might encounter a bloody disaster today, so you need to be careful!

Wang Shouchen's words weren't angry at all, but he was sincerely reminding Taylor.

Wang Shouchen had learned some of the Dao arts and profound arts from the sect members yesterday. Even though it was only at an average level and he could only give a general idea of what he saw, and was unable to point out what he was seeing, it was still very easy for him to see the good fortune of others.

So Wang Shouchen, seeing that Taylor still had the heart to give him a hand, told him.

Taylor wasn't a Chinese and obviously didn't know how to act together. Seeing the words of warning, he thought that Wang Shouchen had just changed methods to reject him, so he didn't say anything more. However, he was extremely furious in his heart.

The situation was urgent and Taylor could not do anything to Wang Shouchen. However, Taylor had already made up his mind that he would not let him go once the situation was safe.

At this moment, the people in front of the monitor suddenly cheered loudly.

Someone is coming to save us!

Great, we're saved!

We are safe … It's safe now!

On the monitor, a team of fully armed hired soldiers were searching from the top of the stairs.

The monitor screen was still connected to the mercenary in the room they were in. With the command, the mercenary was able to move quickly. However, it had only been 20 minutes and he was already on his way to the 30th floor.

Faced with the reinforcements that were about to arrive, everyone was happy. Even Wang Shouchen's heart was filled with joy. He felt as if he had just survived a disaster.

But at that moment, the monster on the monitor changed. His whole face twitched as he looked at the ornaments in the corridor. Then he flashed and rushed up the stairs.

Needless to say, everyone knew that the monster had gone to hire soldiers. When the bodyguard in front of the monitor noticed this situation, he immediately informed the mercenary.

Monsters are coming to find you. You guys have to be careful!

But before the bodyguard could finish his words, the mercenary encountered the monster. Mercenary warriors were truly worthy of their reputation. They instantly formed a defensive formation and started to fire at the monsters.

The mercenaries didn't expect their opponent to be a monster. In the beginning, they weren't used to it, but after shooting, the mercenary's professionalism was clearly shown.

Unfortunately, no matter how strong the hired soldiers were, they were still relatively weaker than ordinary people. They felt weak when they encountered an invulnerable monster, no matter how they looked at it.

It was just like a little chicken that was waiting to be slaughtered. Resistance was almost all unnecessary. Other than enraging the monster and making himself die a more miserable death, it was completely useless.

In a matter of seconds, several of the mercenaries had their throats bitten off by the monsters, and their lives were taken. His body was torn into pieces, and he died in unison at the hands of the monster.

The weapon in the mercenary's hand was not much better than a poker. When the bullet hit the monster's body, it would not even be able to harm him; it would not even be able to break his skin. If it wasn't for the fact that the monster was already bleeding, the bullets wouldn't have been able to kill the monster.

After killing the mercenary, the monster suddenly turned its head. Its blood-red eyes were focused on the monitor, as if it could see the room through the monitor.

The people in the room were frightened by the monster's eyes, and the timid ones immediately screamed. Not only were there pretty sexy secretaries, but there were bodyguards as well, and there was also Sam, who was afraid of death.

What made Wang Shouchen even more embarrassed was that Sam even peed his pants. When he smelled Sam's piss, Wang Shouchen could only helplessly back off into the distance.

Wang Shouchen instantly felt that being friends with Sam was a mistake.

Bang!

The gun went off again, and it was Tyler who fired. After the shot, Taylor glared at the people in the room.

What are you shouting for? The monster will be here in a moment. Take advantage of your energy and call out. Why don't you take out your weapons and get rid of the monster! If crying can solve the problem, I still need you! "

Taylor's fist slammed on the table, and one of the walls in the room caved in, revealing a wall full of weapons. From the dagger to the handgun to the RPG rocket launcher.

At the bottom of the wall, there were grenades. Destructive, anti-tank grenades, incendiary bombs, smoke bombs, flash grenades, anti-riot grenades, electromagnetic grenades, everything.

Even if Wang Shouchen wasn't a military fanatic or a grenade expert, his eyes would still hurt from the variety of grenades. At this time, Wang Shouchen had a new understanding of the gunmen of the United States. Take out the guns here. A small skirmish is enough.

In an instant, Wang Shouchen also understood why the police officers of the United States would always accidentally hurt ordinary people. There were too many guns. Who knew what the guy on the other side would take out in the next second?

The guns here can arm everyone. Even if the monsters come, we have the ability to protect ourselves. I just called the police and they will be here soon. We just need to stall for time.

Hearing Taylor's words, everyone reacted and ran to the wall to get their weapons. However, they seemed to have forgotten that the weapons used by the mercenaries just now were even more advanced than the ones here, asking for a higher price.

Even professional mercenaries couldn't do anything to monsters, so what could ordinary people in the house do to monsters? Even if they had guns, they wouldn't be able to do anything to monsters. At most, it would just give them some psychological comfort, but it would be useless at all. If they were to be rushed in by a monster, they would all die.

The others didn't think that the extremely terrifying Sam would actually think of this. As he thought of it, he spoke his doubts to Wang Shouchen in a weak and cowardly manner.

Mercenaries are no match for monsters. So what if we have guns? Let's just run!

Those who heard Sam's words immediately became dispirited. The imposing aura Taylor had mustered with great difficulty was instantly reduced by more than half. Angry, Taylor pointed his gun at Sam.

Suddenly, Wang Shouchen appeared beside Taylor. Before Taylor could react, Wang Shouchen had already captured Taylor's hand. There was even a finger behind the trigger, so Taylor was unable to open fire no matter how many times he tried.

Sam is my friend, and I forbid you to hurt him. Furthermore, what Sam said is right, even the mercenaries aren't a match for the monsters, and that's even worse. Rather than throwing our guns to our deaths, we might as well escape.

No matter how much you run, the monsters will always be outside. The moment you walk out, you will become the food of the monsters. At least this room had a 14mm special steel partition, and inside the wall was a bulletproof grid attached to a tank. Even if an RPG were to hit the wall, it wouldn't be able to break through this room, so … Monsters would definitely not be able to enter this place. As long as we don't go out of the room, we'll definitely be safe!

The others were relieved as they heard Taylor's words. What could be safer at this time than staying in a sturdy room? Everyone obediently stood to the side, no longer caring about Wang Shouchen's matters.

Wang Shouchen looked at Taylor and stared into his eyes as he slowly spoke.

Since this place is safe, please do not harm my friends. We must not engage in internal strife or else the monsters would charge in and we won't be able to hold them off at all.

Taylor looked coldly at Wang Shouchen, completely ignoring Sam who was on the ground.

Alright!

CHAPTER 105 - CULVERT TRAP

Wang Shouchen let go of Taylor's hand and gun, and Taylor slowly withdrew his gun. Only then did Sam feel relieved, knowing that he had made another trip to the gates of hell. At this moment, he no longer cared about staying by himself. He immediately ran to Wang Shouchen's side as if this place gave him a sense of security.

Before Sam could calm down, the bodyguards who had been monitoring the monster suddenly shouted.

Boss, the monster is gone! The monster is gone!

Taylor was so angry! What's the use of calling me when the monster is gone?

Why aren't you guys looking for him? Find him! Find it!

At this moment, Wang Shouchen suddenly felt a strange energy approaching. This energy was right above him, just like what the monster had felt just now outside the door.

Wang Shouchen seemed to have thought of something and shouted towards the people in the room.

Where's the ventilation?

Taylor had already run over to the monitor to command his bodyguards to find the monsters, there was still time to pay attention to Wang Shouchen. On the other side, Dr. Nathan answered Wang Shouchen's question.

There is no ventilation in this house. It has been air-conditioned by Hale, right on the ceiling. The whole building is like this. Don't even mention it, Haier's central air-conditioning is really good, much better than the ones in my previous lab."

Wang Shouchen secretly cursed. The monster ran into the central air conditioner and entered the room through the air vent.

However, before Wang Shouchen could say anything, a shadow suddenly appeared at the air-conditioner's opening. A stream of green liquid sprayed out and sprayed towards the room.

Wang Shouchen had discovered the monster's traces earlier and had also been paying attention to the air-conditioning. Thus, he immediately discovered the green liquid spraying out. He immediately waved his clothes to block the liquid spraying out.

By the time the liquid was finished spraying, the clothes in Wang Shouchen's hands had already been ruined to the point where they didn't look quite the same. However, under his clothes, both Nathan and Sam were completely unharmed. They weren't stuck to the green liquid.

At this moment, everyone in the room started to scream miserably. It turned out that after they had been drenched in the green liquid, not only their clothes had been corroded, but even their skin, muscles, and bones had been corroded as well. The people who were rolling on the ground and screaming were everywhere.

He didn't know if Taylor was lucky or if he was lucky, but when the others were drenched, he stood there looking completely unharmed.

Sam was so scared he smelled piss again.

Wang Shouchen couldn't help but kick him and yell at him.

Hurry up and run! The monster is coming! Wait for death here!

As Wang Shouchen spoke, he pulled Sam towards the door. However, just as they moved, the monsters in the air-conditioned hole rushed out, pouncing towards Wang Shouchen and Sam.

Wang Shouchen's eyes never left the air-conditioner. When he saw the monster come out, he pushed Sam and stood in front of him.

Hurry up and run, I'll block him!

Following that, Wang Shouchen's hands went up to meet the monster. An Overlord raised his cauldron and caught the Overlord who was pouncing towards him.

The force of the monster's pounce was too great. Wang Shouchen was unable to hold on and almost dislocated his arm. He nearly knelt to the ground as well. If not for Wang Shouchen's quick reaction and the force of his waist, which threw the monster out of the way, Wang Shouchen would have been pressed down by the monster.

Even so, Wang Shouchen's entire body was aching. His tendons and bones were probably torn, and even his muscles were torn. Actually, the most grievous injury was on his arms. He was already on the verge of losing consciousness from the pain and was on the verge of losing control of his body.

After a short period of contact with the monster, Wang Shouchen felt that it was a bit familiar. However, he could not recall where he had seen the monster before.

The monster's body was too tough. It was fine after being thrown by Wang Shouchen, but it had still managed to squash the person underneath it. The monster immediately got up from the ground and pounced towards Wang Shouchen once more. From the looks of it, he was going to fight Wang Shouchen to the death.

Wang Shouchen's entire body was aching. He simply had no way to fight against the monster. Therefore, he turned around and tried to run without saying a word.

However, when Wang Shouchen turned around, he found that Sam was already nowhere to be seen. He didn't know when Taylor and Nathan had gathered together. Strangely enough, the two of them did not run out the door and remained inside the house.

Wang Shouchen thought to himself, If Taylor and Nathan don't run now, aren't they afraid of the monsters? Or is there something strange in this room? "

Thinking of this, a tunnel appeared on the wall behind Taylor and Nathan. How could Wang Shouchen not understand? It was a secret passage that led out of the room.

That was true. How could a formidable man not prepare a way out for himself? Only a fool would leave no chance of survival, staying in a place full of dead ends.

Taylor and Nathan saw the monster pounce towards Wang Shouchen and immediately entered the tunnel. Wang Shouchen originally wanted to leave his room and escape through the elevator. But Sam also went out through the door, what if the monster caught up with him? Wang Shouchen didn't have the ability to save him.

Wang Shouchen gritted his teeth and dodged the monsters that had caught up. He ran towards the secret passageway where Taylor and Nathan had disappeared. He also wanted to leave there.

As for whether the monsters would follow him, Wang Shouchen didn't care. However, just as Wang Shouchen reached the tunnel entrance, a black dot was thrown out from the tunnel.

Wang Shouchen had been observing the surroundings the entire time. He immediately recognized that this was a grenade and immediately dodged. He then used a side kick to kick the grenade at the monster's body. Wang Shouchen followed the flow and fell into the dark tunnel.

At the same time, Wang Shouchen also started to curse.

Taylor is really cruel. With this grenade, I don't know if the monsters will die or not, but there probably aren't many people in the room who will survive.

However, Wang Shouchen could do nothing about it. Right now, he could not save himself and did not have the ability to save others.

Just as Wang Shouchen fell into the secret passage, the grenade exploded. The powerful force directly pushed Wang Shouchen into the passage and he rolled down the stairs.

Fortunately, Wang Shouchen reacted quickly and used his hands to protect his head. He did not injure it while he was rolling. Of course, during this time, Wang Shouchen would definitely collide with other things, which was unavoidable.

Very quickly, Wang Shouchen stopped at the end of the stairs. At this moment, because he kept rolling around, the pain in his body was extremely severe, and he was extremely disgusted.

After standing up with much difficulty, he felt the world spinning around him. Before he could regain his balance, he was knocked down by something and fell heavily onto the ground.

Only after a long while did Wang Shouchen recover. It was Nathan and Taylor. At this moment, Nathan and Taylor were like gourds of blood, groaning nonstop on the ground.

Wang Shouchen seemed to understand what he had just bumped into.

At this time, he didn't have time to think about this. Wang Shouchen slapped Taylor hard a few times, waking him up from his moans.

Get up, stop shouting, quickly tell me how do you plan to leave this place. I can feel that the monster is not dead, but has already caught up!

Taylor's eyes were red as he kept shaking his head. He was in a lot of pain, but he understood what Wang Shouchen meant by pointing at a light on the wall.

Although he didn't know what was the use of lighting, he had seen too many movies, so he obviously knew that this was a mechanism. Wang Shouchen pressed the button first, but the wall didn't react.

At this moment, Wang Shouchen heard the monster's roar. Needless to say, the monsters had already caught up and were not far away from them.

Wang Shouchen was anxious. He knew what was going on, so he turned on the light. The wall behind Wang Shouchen descended and a door appeared. At the other end of the door was a laboratory.

Wang Shouchen ignored the pain in his body and dragged Taylor and Nathan into the laboratory. As soon as he entered the laboratory, the passage disappeared. Following that, the roar of the monsters and the sound of the walls being smashed could be heard.

It was fortunate that the walls of the laboratory were sturdy enough that the monsters were temporarily unable to break through them. Only then did Wang Shouchen and the other two have a chance to catch their breath.

However, Wang Shouchen's expression turned ugly once again. The lab was full of glass cabinets, each containing a human corpse.

Wang Shouchen did not know how these people had died. However, around the corpses were the souls of the corpses. They painfully lingered around, unable to leave, bound, unable to free themselves.

Through the wandering souls, Wang Shouchen knew that they had all died a violent death. Furthermore, they had died a very miserable death. The only reason why the soul was in so much pain and resentment.

If this had been the place where the other corpses had gathered, the resentment would have soared to the heavens long ago. However, in this place, a fiendish aura was suppressing his soul, preventing it from using its resentment to become powerful.

It was also due to the fact that the Yang aura in this building was too great, causing the soul that had been suppressed to become even more cowardly. He was no worse than a ghost from the outside world. These souls were simply the shame of the dead, they were not worthy of the name of the dead.

Wang Shouchen was a cultivator. He was naturally merciful. Although he would sometimes kill, what Wang Shouchen dealt with were all evil people and evil spirits. He would not act against ordinary people. Seeing so many people die here, he couldn't help but ask Taylor and Nathan this question.

How did these people die? Could it be that you were the ones who killed all of them?

Taylor gave a bitter smile and calmly answered Wang Shouchen's question.

"I'm not interested in killing them. They're volunteers who volunteer to try new drugs. However, if the experiment failed, they would die. The reason why he was sealed here was to collect data from the experiments.
