As the sun sets, the twilight gilds on the orange-yellow lid of the taxi, like the golden light on the sea.

It drove straight in front of Huxing Hospital, the atmosphere at the hospital gate across the street was solemn, paper flowers, candles, sad faces, Pingjiang citizens spontaneously organized mourning, from Monday to now, for three full days, the mourning crowd has not been scarce.

Some chanted an elegy in the night wind, and some wept silently in the shadows.

Even the car slowed down unconsciously as it passed by, and there was a brief moment of silence to pay homage to the place.

Guo Qiqi sat in the back seat of the taxi, looking at this scene, and his heart was mixed.

Today is Thursday, and after school, he did not go to the Burial Heaven Martial Arts Hall to practice martial arts, but went to attend a funeral.

The taxi stopped at the door of the Pingjiang City Funeral Parlor, and the pink walls and tiles and the lush mountains complement each other, looking simple and beautiful.

At the end of the eye is Fengyao Mountain, the rolling mountains stand in the twilight, like a huge black shadow overlooking the world.

Guo Qi Qi walked into the mourning hall dressed in black, and a huge statue hung in the middle of the sight, with black cloth and white words. The black crowd was like a frozen black ocean, he walked straight to the statue, looked at Yu Jun's calm and dignified face in the statue, the fire in his heart became more and more intense, and he bent down and put down a bunch of white flowers.

Turning around, there was a family member of the deceased dressed in white filial piety clothes, and Yu Jun's wife was not seen, according to Pingjiang customs, pregnant women were not allowed to attend the funeral, even if the deceased was her husband. Guo Qiqi walked over to them, gave the gift money he had prepared before, and whispered "Festival mourning and change".

The other side looked sad and nodded.

Qi Qi didn't say anything more and walked out of the mourning hall.

Walking to the main entrance of the funeral home, he saw an "acquaintance", the nurse who was rescued by Zuo Yang at the fire scene that day. Quan Qi remembered his name, Tetra Pak. At this time, the other party's state was not good, as if he had been beaten, his nose was blue and his face was swollen, the black suit on his body was also crooked, his hair was messy, and the whole person looked embarrassed.

Qi Qi hesitated for a moment, and then walked over to him.

"What's wrong?" asked Qi Qi.

Tetra Recart was lowering his head to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth with a tissue, when he heard the voice, he raised his head, immediately recognized the person in front of him, and smiled: "You are also coming to the funeral?"

Qi Qi nodded, staring at Tetra Pak's bruised face.

Tetra Rex also realized that his current state did not look like a person who came to attend the funeral, and said with a wry smile: "I came to attend the funeral of the old man, who knew that as soon as I entered, I was kicked out, they not only said that I killed the old man, but also accused me of intentional homicide, saying that they wanted to find a forensic doctor to dissect the old man's body, thinking that I thought the old man was in the way, so I killed him." As soon as I thought that the old man was all dead, and that he would have to be stabbed by a forensic doctor, I couldn't get angry, and I fought with them. And it turned out to-"

He didn't continue, but Qi Qi roughly understood what had happened.

It's really ...... Besides, Qi Qi didn't know how to judge this matter, they all said that the deceased had already died, and the old people were already dead, so why should the living disturb his soul and let him not have peace in the other world?

Qi Qi couldn't help but think of Yu Jun, the dead taxi driver, and said in his heart that this world is really ridiculous.

Yu Jun's family could not find the murderer, but the family of this old man insisted on putting the murderer's hat on the innocent's head. It's two extremes. While the killers are still at large, the innocent are being charged without justification.

The fire in my heart burned more and more.

Guo Qiqi took out a notebook and a pen from the schoolbag behind him, tore off a page and wrote something on it, and then said to Tetra Recart: "If they accuse you of intentional homicide, contact me, this is my phone number......"

Tetra Recart took the page and said gratefully, "Thank you for your kindness. ”

That being said, Tetra Recart didn't think that a student who was still studying could help him in this matter.

"That's right. "Do you remember the boy who escaped with us that day? ”

"Zhuang Jialiang?"

"Yes, that's him!"

"What's wrong with him?"

"His father, Zhuang Bi, is the CEO of Longxiang Group, who died in that fire, and the funeral is also held here today, on the second floor. Tetra Rex said, "I have just gone to mourn, alas, this child is not easy, as far as I know, his mother died of a serious illness when he was three years old, his father also had cancer a few years ago, this time his father died, the entire Longxiang group has no owner, how can he be a hairy boy to control the gang of uncles who are eyeing the bottom." ”

"Longxiang Group ......"

Guo Qiqi frowned, he had heard of this name, formerly a gangster, and later transformed into the largest security company in Pingjiang under the leadership of Zhuang Bi, and in recent years, it has successively set foot in the catering, dance halls, bars, and even the logistics industry. However, due to the transformation of the gangster, many people in the group still can't let go of the bloody street in the past.

Before Zhuang Bi died, he was able to suppress the floating thoughts of these people with his iron and bloody wrists, but now, as soon as Zhuang Bi died, when he thought of the crying boy, he knew that the underground world of Pingjiang was going to be chaotic.

"How do you know so much?" asked Qi Qi suddenly.

Tetra Rex touched his nose, "I used to be a gangster for a while, but then they thought I was too loving, so they kicked me out." ”

smiled self-deprecatingly, "So then I became a nurse, my mother has been bedridden since I was seven years old, I have served her since I was a child, and I still felt that fate was so unfair to me, so I let myself be such a mother." Who would have thought that it was because I would take care of people that I have lived to this point. So when you say this fate, it's really merciful and strange. ”

Hearing Tetra Recart say that he had taken care of his mother since he was seven years old, Qi Qi couldn't help but look at him with admiration, saying that there was no filial son in front of the bed for a long time, and it was not easy for a seven-year-old child to be able to take care of his mother, and he has persevered until now.

"I'm sorry, that's all I have to say. Tetra Recart blew his nose with a tissue, "I still have some business, so I'll go first." If you have time, go to the second floor to mourn. After all, we all escaped together, and I think it would be more effective for your peers to comfort each other. ”

Tetra Recart was right, he was indeed a man of love.

Standing at the main entrance of the funeral parlor and looking out, the stars in the endless night sky were like a dream, one after another black cars drove in from outside, and the beams of the cars pierced through the night.

Faintly, Qi Qi felt that something was wrong, the closing time of the Pingjiang City Funeral Parlor was half past six in the evening, and everyone had to evacuate before half past six, and then the Zhongwu District Detachment of the nearby city guard team would come over to blockade it, so as not to disturb the souls of the deceased from the monster community coming down from Fengyao Mountain.

But now, the time is six o'clock, and the number of people who come to mourn is not decreasing, but increasing.

In the crowd, in the eyes of the monsters, the dense blood qi was like wolf smoke rushing into the sky, an irresistible temptation.

Once the bloodthirsty monster comes down from Fengyao Mountain, the huge green area in front of the Pingjiang City Funeral Home is a natural hunting ground, and you can't run out if you want to.

Since everyone who came to mourn was in deep mourning, no one realized it.

Even if someone thinks of it like Guo Qiqi, most of them have a fluke mentality, the monster community on Fengyao Mountain has not appeared for many years, this southwest branch of Ziqi Mountain located in Pingjiang City, with a maximum altitude of 223 meters, has long been assimilated by human society.

Over the years, in addition to the discovery of more than 10,000 square meters of Neolithic ruins, the so-called monster community has never even appeared a shadow, people only because there were high monks here in the past to subdue demons, only firmly believe that there is a monster community on the mountain.

However, even the city guards stationed near here haven't seen a single sight in so many years.

Throughout history, the last time a construction team climbed Fengyao Mountain was forty years ago, when they demolished the ossuary tower of a high monk at the end of the feudal era in order to build a television broadcasting station. The construction team survived later, and the TV station was hastily built with only a prototype. This tragic incident made no one in Pingjiang dare to climb Fengyao Mountain to find out in the next 40 years.

However, time can dilute people's memories and fears.

Forty years have passed, and the people of Pingjiang are becoming more and more afraid of Fengyao Mountain.

Even as early as 36 years ago, the Pingjiang Municipal Government built the Pingjiang City Funeral Home on the west side of Fengyao Mountain.

Thirty-two years ago, the Pingjiang Municipal Government also discovered a Neolithic site with an area of more than 10,000 square meters 3 kilometers north of Fengyao Mountain.

For 40 years, the Pingjiang municipal government has been using various methods to explore around Fengyao Mountain.

It is conceivable that it will not take long for the Pingjiang Municipal Government to completely take Fengyao Mountain and truly include it in the territory of Pingjiang.

This is also a political achievement that Guo Longjin has been trying to achieve since taking office.

Although the land area of the Huangming Empire is the fourth in the world, except for the 473 base cities, most of the land is occupied by a variety of strange monster communities, which belongs to the disputed territory in another sense.

It's a pity that the new Ming calendar has turned to 376 years, and the territory of Huangming is still divided between humans and monsters.
