Chapter 650 Strange Changes in the Spirit Insects
Dong, dong, dong!!
The mysterious person struck the strange drum, producing a weird and rhythmic sound.
The sound was incredibly faint, even quieter than the sound of a mosquito in flight, barely noticeable, and almost imperceptible. If anyone were present, they would undoubtedly find it very eerie. The sound of the drum was so soft that it might not even reach three meters away.
Why was the mysterious person doing this? The sound couldn't even reach beyond three meters. No matter how remarkable this strange drum was or how intimidating it could be, it seemed futile.
Nonetheless, the mysterious person ignored this and continued to beat the peculiar drum. While doing so, he mumbled something under his breath, as if reciting some particularly strange incantation.
With the combination of this drumming and the incantation, a strange ripple spread rapidly in all directions with him at its center.
When this unusual ripple encountered a wall, it surprisingly passed through it without obstruction and continued to spread.
Inside Shen Feng's room, Zhang Long stood near the doorway, his eyes alert, a dagger hidden at his waist. His right hand was poised on the dagger, ready to strike at any moment.
Liu Yifei was also barely holding on, collapsing onto another sofa bed, fast asleep. After getting off the plane, going to the Massachusetts General Hospital, and then enduring over six hours of driving, she couldn't take the strain any longer.
Even though danger lurked all around, she couldn't endure such hardship now, dozing off on the sofa bed, sound asleep.
Sitting by her brother's bedside, Shen Bing had been staring at her brother's face unblinkingly.
After all these years, Shen Feng had finally awakened. This was something she had never dared to dream of before, and now it was happening right before her eyes.
Moreover, Shen Feng had just talked to her a lot. That alone indicated that he was improving.
If Shen Feng truly recovered, her burden would be significantly lightened, and she could start saving money, no longer needing such exorbitant medical expenses.
"Wang Chao."
Shen Bing looked at Wang Chao, who was meditating and gathering his qi, her eyes filled with gratitude.
It was this man!
This man who had rescued her from the most dangerous place, not only saving her life but also changing her life, pulling her out of the abyss step by step.
Now Wang Chao had saved her brother's life!
For such a great favor, she felt deeply indebted.
At the same time, her feelings for Wang Chao had undergone significant changes.
Right at that moment, suddenly, Shen Feng, who was lying in the hospital bed, went from a relaxed expression to one of extreme agony.
"Pain, it hurts so much!!"
Shen Feng suddenly opened his eyes, his expression contorted in pain, and he even let out some screams, his forehead drenched in sweat.
"Shen Feng, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Bing's face changed, and she quickly looked at Wang Chao. "Wang Chao, it seems like Shen Feng's condition has worsened. Come and take a look."
She had just finished speaking when Shen Feng's screams became even more piercing. He clutched his head with both hands. "Pain, pain, pain!! My head hurts so much!"
"Shen Feng, you!"
Seeing Shen Feng in so much pain, Shen Bing panicked and did not know what to do, so she could only look at Wang Chao with pleading eyes.
At this moment, Wang Chao opened his eyes.
It was as if two bolts of lightning had flashed in the air, incredibly intimidating.
He stood up, his eyes cold, his ears twitched, and he said in a deep voice, "It seems like we are truly being watched."
"And those people aren't interested in us, but in Shen Feng!"
"What?" Shen Bing's expression changed dramatically.
"Wang Chao, do you know what you're saying?"
Zhang Long was also in shock and said, "Shen Feng has been in a coma for many years and has had no conflicts with anyone. How could anyone be interested in him?"
"Even if those people were after money, it should be Shen Bing they're targeting, not Shen Feng!"
Shen Bing nodded thoughtfully, her eyes filled with confusion. Even with their heads together, they couldn't fathom why someone would go after Shen Feng, a man recovering from a serious illness.
Wang Chao's gaze turned ice-cold as he pointed at his own head. "They're not after Shen Feng; they're after the spiritual insect inside Shen Feng's brain!"
"This!" Zhang Long and Shen Bing's expressions changed again.
Back when they were in China, they had thought Wang Chao's words were sheer fantasy.
But in White Eagle Country, Wang Chao's acupuncture treatment had achieved good results, indirectly confirming that there was indeed an invisible spiritual insect inside Shen Feng's brain, something that science couldn't detect.
"This spiritual insect is known to devour brain cells, right? It's clearly a toxic entity. Why would someone target it?" Zhang Long furrowed his brow.
"A toxic entity naturally has toxic effects."
Wang Chao remained calm and took out the gold needles he always carried with him. He walked up to Shen Feng and uttered in a deep voice, "Furthermore, the spiritual insect in Shen Feng's brain was not a natural infection. Someone deliberately implanted it in his brain many years ago."
"When the spiritual insect matures, someone will naturally come to extract it."
"But that person did not expect me to come to White Eagle Country. I used the gold needles to suppress the insect's growth and even caused harm to it."
"So, when he noticed the changes in the insect, he immediately investigated our whereabouts and set up an ambush here, waiting for our arrival."
"It's precisely because of this that after we checked into this place, many people have been giving us strange looks. The staff, the hotel front desk, the doctors, and the nurses, all of them looked at us with hostility."
He had been observing everything around him since they arrived at the villa. After they checked in, the hotel staff, the front desk, doctors, and nurses had all looked at them differently.
He could tell that their eyes held hostility.
Furthermore, he could see that some of the doctors and nurses were disguised as professional killers.
In the adjacent rooms to Shen Feng's, there were even more hidden experts.
In other words, they're like fish in a barrel at this moment.
Shen Bing and Zhang Long exchanged puzzled glances.
Set up in advance?
Who was this person?
Were they so powerful?
"How did they know we're here?" Zhang Long asked.
Before coming here, he had changed cars several times to shake off potential pursuers. When he contacted Michael Kay, it was done secretly using obscure names. How did those people find them?
Wang Chao shook his head, his eyes locked on the continuously suffering Shen Feng. He explained, "No matter how you change your vehicles, once they can sense the presence of the spiritual insect in Shen Feng's brain, they can locate your position and set up an ambush."
In his sight, the originally sealed transparent spiritual insect, due to some unknown stimulus, was now struggling violently.
