Chapter 163 Vanished into Ashes
At this moment, Regan slowly opened her eyes.
Her eyelashes trembled, like a butterfly fluttering its wings. Her eyes were initially somewhat dazed, her pupils unfocused, as if she didn't know where she was.
Then she saw the figure on the other side.
Her small lips moved slightly.
"Mother?"
The sound was very soft, as soft as a feather falling to the ground.
With a slightly hoarse voice and a hint of weakness.
Chris covered her mouth, her eyes instantly reddening.
This was the voice of her daughter that she hadn't heard in a very, very long time.
Her face held an indescribable complexity of expression.
Surprise, heartache, lingering fear, and relief were all mixed together.
"Oh my god!"
She paused for a second.
Just one second.
Then she took Regan from Father Iller.
She hugged her tightly, as if she wanted to meld her daughter into her body.
Her face was pressed against Regan's, and tears streamed down her face, wetting Regan's hair and her shoulders.
"Ragan...Ragan...my Ragen..."
She choked up, unable to say anything else.
Regan was being held by her mother, and she slowly raised her little hand to gently pat her mother's back.
"Mom, I'm here."
Chris cried even harder.
"ah!!"
Another piercing scream came from upstairs.
The sound was sharp and piercing, filled with endless pain and anger, so loud that the crystal chandelier in the living room swayed gently.
But Chris didn't look up.
She just held Regan tighter.
The room on the second floor.
Chen Yuanping placed the bronze mirror on the floor, with the mirror surface facing upwards, directly opposite the ceiling.
Pazuzu was pressed against the other side of the mirror, his lion-headed face distorted beyond recognition.
It had several wounds on its body, and black mist was escaping from the wounds like a deflated balloon.
Chen Yuan's ambiguous smile was reflected in his yellow pupils.
That face was looking down at it from above, the corners of its mouth slightly upturned, and its eyes held a calmness that made Pazuzu want to tear it apart.
"I'll make you pay!"
Pazuzu gritted her teeth, the sound coming from the mirror, muffled, as if through a layer of water.
"OK."
.
Chen Yuan's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was as calm as if he were saying, "The weather is nice today."
He picked up the holy water bottle and tilted its mouth.
A clear liquid flowed from the bottle opening, traced a thin line in the air, and landed on the mirror.
"laugh--!"
White smoke suddenly billowed out.
"ah!!"
Pazuzu let out a scream, and his body began to tremble violently.
A distinct burn mark appeared on the lion's face, as if it had been branded with a red-hot iron.
In Chen Yuan's eyes.
Black mist surged wildly from the burn marks on the Pazuzu statue, hissing as it touched the mirror before vanishing.
He looked at Chen Yuan, his expression remaining calm.
Then I poured in a little more.
Another scream.
Pazuzu's body trembled even more violently.
It really wants to quit.
Step back, get away from this damn mirror, get away from this damn holy water.
But that damned guy pointed the bronze mirror at the ceiling.
With the mirror facing upwards, only the ceiling is reflected.
A grayish-white ceiling with nothing on it.
There was no way to retreat.
It is trapped in this mirror world, with nowhere to escape.
"You wait! I will!"
Pazuzu made another harsh statement.
Chen Yuan poured out some more holy water.
The screams rang out again.
It's like a program, and this process repeats itself endlessly.
Pazuzu repeated his harsh words over and over again, from threats to angry curses, from angry curses to pleas for mercy, and then back to threats.
Chen Yuan remained expressionless, his hand holding the holy water bottle as steady as a machine.
Once one bottle is empty, replace it with another.
Another bottle is emptied, then another one is poured in.
Until Pazuzu was on the verge of death, lying on the mirror panting, unable to speak anymore.
As dawn approached, the sky outside the window began to lighten with the first hint of white.
Chen Yuancai stopped pouring holy water onto the mirror.
He glanced at the floor.
It's wet.
It's all water.
He didn't want to keep pouring water like that.
But when Constantine, his counterpart from next door, appeared to exorcise the carrion demon, he was almost shattered by that thing in the Mirror World.
As a novice, he naturally had to be extremely careful.
What if Pazuzu suddenly explodes and breaks the mirror?
Although this demon doesn't seem very smart, what if it is?
Pazuzu lay face down on the mirror, panting heavily, with only one thought in her mind.
Where did this guy get so much holy water?!
It stared at Chen Yuan, its eyes filled with resentment and malice.
If looks could kill, Chen Yuan would have died a hundred times over.
Chen Yuan ignored it.
He stood up and walked to the window.
Pazuzu's eyes followed him, wondering what he was going to do.
Then it saw Chen Yuan walk to the window and raise his hand.
They removed the portrait of Saint Joseph that had been pasted on the window.
Pazuzu's heart skipped a beat.
Chen Yuan pushed open the window.
The morning breeze swept in, carrying a hint of coolness and a fresh, morning-like scent.
Then he bent down and picked up the bronze mirror from the ground.
He pointed the bronze mirror at the window.
Pazuzu saw the scenery outside the window: streets, houses, trees in the distance, and the increasingly bright light on the horizon.
If Pazuzu still doesn't know what's happening by this point, then it's really stupid.
This guy wants to destroy it with sunlight!
"Damn it!"
Pazuzu roared, his voice sharp and piercing, filled with terror.
"Stop right now!"
Chen Yuan ignored it.
The bronze mirror faced steadily out the window.
The light on the horizon grew brighter and brighter.
The first rays of dawn were already beginning to appear.
The light was soft and warm, but in Pazuzu's eyes, it was more terrifying than anything else.
"I can give you endless wealth!"
Pazuzu's voice changed; it was no longer a roar, but carried a hint of pleading.
"Young man, turn the mirror back! I can give you anything you want!"
Chen Yuan spoke slowly.
"He boasts without thinking."
He glanced down at the disheveled demon in the mirror.
"Looking at you like this, anyone who believes you is doomed."

Pazuzu: "
"I swear in the name of the God of the Southeast Wind!"
"The God of the Southeast Wind is the God of the Southeast Wind, what does it have to do with you?"
Chen Yuan's voice remained slow and leisurely.
"Right now, you're just a useless little devil."
Pazuzu:
""
It opened its mouth, wanting to refute, but found that it seemed unable to refute.
What this guy said seems to be true...
"Damn it!"
It cursed again.
"I command you, turn the mirror back!"
The meaningless conversation continued.
But it was all in vain.
Chen Yuan remained as steady as Mount Tai, the bronze mirror in his hand not moving an inch.
It seems they already knew their fate.
Pazuzu stopped begging for mercy.
It lay on the mirror and started cursing at Chen Yuan.
The insults were very harsh.
They started cursing Chen Yuan's ancestors for eighteen generations and continued cursing his descendants.
Then the cursing started again.
I curse Chen Yuan to die a horrible death, I curse Chen Yuan to go to hell, I curse Chen Yuan to never be reincarnated.
Unfortunately, it did not know Chen Yuan's name.
From beginning to end, it was unable to find any information about Chen Yuan.
Without knowing the name, there's no way to talk about a curse.
Chen Yuan listened quietly, his expression unchanged.
The sunlight grew brighter and brighter.
Finally, the first ray of sunlight crossed the horizon, shone through the window, and fell on the bronze mirror.
"ah-!!!"
A fierce roar rang out.
The sound was sharp and piercing, filled with pain and despair, so loud that it made the windowpanes tremble.
Pazuzu's body began to dissolve.
Like a candle being burned, it melts and dissipates little by little, starting from the edge.
Black mist surged outwards wildly, hissing in the sunlight before disappearing.
Pazuzu struggled, rolled around, and desperately tried to escape in the mirror world.
But there was nowhere to escape.
Sunlight bathed the entire mirror surface.
Its body grew smaller and paler.
at last...
"ah!!!"
After a final scream, Pazuzu fell silent.
Chen Yuan waited for a while.
He peeked into the mirror.
On the mirror, only a pile of black ash remained.
Small and thin, like burnt paper.
It seems this is Pazuzu.
Chen Yuan took the bronze mirror back from the window.
This bronze mirror was "borrowed" from the church; if it were broken, Father Iller would certainly not let him off the hook.
But as soon as he put the mirror back in the room, he discovered a problem.
The pile of black ash is still reflected in the mirror.
It did not disappear.
It lay there quietly on the mirror, like a stain.
Chen Yuan: "6"
