Chapter 300: Desire is Hard to Shake Off
"I caught it." Yan Xu smiled slightly, and then he pulled hard as if he was fishing, and pulled a ball of something out of the building. It fell on the open space not far from the door, and bounced twice very bouncy.

Perhaps due to the influence of the chains, other people could also see this thing, which scared Williams and Wang Yi Bo so much that they almost turned around and ran away. It was so disgusting and scary that even Yan Xu frowned.

This is a huge pink ball of flesh. Although it is very tender and seems to ooze out water and make a chirping sound if you pinch it, it seems to be made from a mixture of more than a dozen human limbs and internal organs. It is still wriggling and twisting constantly, as if it is performing some kind of non-stop primitive movement with all its organs.

Most people would lose their minds and fall into nightmares at the sight of these two, but these two haven't gone crazy yet or rolled around on the ground hugging each other, all thanks to the powerful sealing ability of the Soul-Catching Fire Cloud Chain.

Yan Xu had never seen this thing before. He tried several methods taught by Uncle Jiu, wanting to see which kind of demon or monster this thing was. As a result, he found that things that could restrain it, such as glutinous rice, cinnabar, inkstone, and black dog blood, had almost no effect. Only talismans could cause effective damage. As soon as he put it on, a large piece of pink meat disappeared, and then he regretted it.

A sound so sharp that it could almost pierce the eardrums suddenly sounded when the three people were off guard. It felt like a dozen hands were scratching a blackboard with nails that had just been inlaid with diamonds, making their bones numb.

Yan Xu threw a punch almost instinctively. The direct current fist of electric current martial arts hit the pink meat ball hard with a drawing electric current, and fiercely poured his overflowing electric current into the hole created by the punch. The whole meat ball expanded several times, and then with the wanton electric current bursting out, the whole pink meat ball fell into pieces and slowly dissipated in the air, leaving only a strange essence like a pink gem fragment.

Although he destroyed the strange meat mass, Yan Xu did not show a happy expression, but frowned instead.

In his perception, the piece of meat did not disappear completely. The concentration of an indescribable aura around it was constantly increasing. Although it was also dissipating, the speed was very slow, and a lot of it even permeated into the building again.

Although he didn't understand what was going on, Yan Xu instinctively felt that this thing would appear again as time went by.

"Oh my God! What is this?!" Williams stuttered.

Wang Yi Bo was still frightened and had no mood to answer his questions, not to mention that it was the first time he had seen such a thing. So he turned his gaze to Yan Xu and spoke.

"Master, what the hell is this?"

"I don't know, maybe it's a specialty of the Lighthouse Country." Yan Xu had no idea what this was, so he classified it as a local specialty. As for whether it was right or not, haha, he was the expert among the three, so naturally, what he said was what it was. If he had any opinions, he would do it himself next time.

"Dear Oriental pastor, has that thing disappeared?" Williams took a deep breath, calmed himself down as quickly as possible, and asked the most crucial question.

"I can only say that a part of them were destroyed, and the rest were dispersed. Many of them were reintegrated into this building. This is the first time I have encountered such a situation." Yan Xu stroked his deliberately short beard, squinted at the building in front of him, and casually answered Williams' question.

Williams no longer had the mood to charge the person. Now he was only concerned about whether this thing would cause any harm to the community, so he asked again.

"That means that thing may appear again. Will it kill people?"

"If you are talking about zombies, evil ghosts, monsters or something like that, I can give you an accurate answer. But I don't understand much about this thing either. I can only say that as long as I am here, this thing can't cause any trouble." After Yan Xu finished speaking, he turned and said to Wang Yi Bo.

"I didn't expect to encounter such an interesting thing right away. I've rented this place."

"It's a gift to you. This house is given to you for free. Only you can manage this place." Wang Yi Bo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and spoke as quickly as possible.

The house has already fallen to a very low price, and with its current notoriety, no one would dare to take it over. He would be lucky if he could give it away. He would be willing to pay even if they paid for it.

"Mr. Oriental Pastor, on behalf of the Oak Street Property Management Committee, I waive all your fees," Williams said hurriedly. This was not a small amount of money, and even if Williams was a member of the Property Management Committee, he could not just waive it. The procedures and processes were very complicated, and most importantly, it was equivalent to him using his personal reputation to guarantee the other party.

But after seeing the methods displayed by the other party, both Wang Yi Bo and Williams felt that the investment and risk were worth it.

Some things are best not to happen in this life. If you happen to encounter them and there is no solution, you can only wait for death.

The monster just now is definitely not the only one. If I encounter one, should I call the police?

No matter how you look at it, that kind of monster can't be solved by just emptying the magazine, so of course you have to get to know the expert in front of you.

Williams helped him handle various procedures, and Wang Yi Bo asked his subordinates to deliver brand new electrical appliances and daily necessities, so Yan Xu didn't need to worry about anything at all.

Compared to these trivial matters, Yan Xu was more interested in the building in front of him. He shook the Soul-Catching Fire Cloud Chain to form an iron rope net, which continuously filtered out the strange aura from the building in front of him like a filter, but he could not find the source.

Shaking his head and seeing that it was getting late, Yan Xu gave Wang Yi Bo and Williams each a talisman as a thank you gift. Then he took back the money from selling the ginseng and moved into the haunted house.

The decoration here still retains the style of the 1970s and 1980s. To modern people, it can only be called old-fashioned, but Yan Xu doesn’t know if it’s because he has been to the ancient world too often, but he quite likes this style.

There are twelve rooms in total, two master bedrooms, two second bedrooms, four guest rooms, a study, a screening room, a gym, a game room, as well as a attic and a wine cellar. The area is really large.

However, Yan Xu had no intention of sleeping. He went to the attic and started to decorate it.

According to Uncle Jiu's teachings, he set up a formation that ordinary demons and monsters dared not get close to, let alone break it. However, Yan Xu didn't know how much effect it would have against the weird things.

He sat cross-legged in the formation, took out the essence left behind by the strange person, and began to study it.

Soon Yan Xu knew why he felt this thing looked familiar, because it looked very much like the impurities contained in inferior incense, that is, desire.

Desires are difficult to eliminate. Even a high monk who has attained enlightenment would not dare to say that he is truly free from the four elements. Because if one is truly free from the four elements, he will not have an obsession with becoming a Buddha. Without the obsession with becoming a Buddha, he naturally will not practice Buddhism or meditate.

This is true for all high monks, not to mention the believers in the mundane world. They naturally have something in their hearts to ask for when they worship God. Even if they don't say it, the incense contains the desires in their hearts, which is why incense is poisonous.

As for the strange monsters before, according to his guess, they should be the result of external pollution and human desires.

Therefore, it is impossible to completely eliminate it unless the world becomes clean.

But what Yan Xu cares more about is whether there are demons, angels, or even gods in this world.
If so, how did the world become so bad?

Countless questions kept popping up in Yan Xu's mind, but he could not find any answers.
