Chapter 217: It's been more than ten years since I died

After returning that night, Duan Ruoxue couldn't wait to discuss with us about investigating Ma Rufeng.

Since it was Ma Rufeng who introduced Osmanthus and them to the village, and the information given by Lao Wang Tou included this person, it was necessary to investigate him.

Duan Ruoxue meant that I would go to the town tomorrow with her.

Wang Ling'er didn't have any opinions, but Lu Le didn't agree at this time, he said to Duan Ruoxue seriously, "Sister Ruoxue, you are a big beauty, it's too eye-catching to go to the town." ”

"In this matter, it is most appropriate for me to go with Lu Yuan, and it is convenient for the two of us to do things."

Duan Ruoxue was unhappy after hearing this, "Brother Lu, what do you mean, do you have a prejudice against women, or what?" ”

"Sister, don't get me wrong, I'm also thinking about the overall situation, I really don't mean anything else!" Lu Le hurriedly explained.

Wang Ling'er asked them not to fight, persuaded Duan Ruoxue a few words, and said that he would let me and Lu Le go.

Duan Ruoxue squirmed for a while before she let go, but before going to bed, she quietly called me out.

I had just been lying in bed when I saw the text message from Duan Ruoxue, and I wondered in my heart.

Walking into the courtyard, Duan Ruoxue glanced at me softly, and then whispered to me: "Lu Yuan, you must pay more attention to the affairs of the town." ”

I nodded and reassured her that although I did be a little careless sometimes, I still wouldn't drop the chain at critical moments.

"Lu Yuan, do you think I'm selfish?"

After a pause, Duan Ruoxue looked at me again and asked.

I shook my head and looked at her without speaking.

"Anyway, you believe me, after you get the fairy bone golden seal, if you want to use it in the future, I will definitely give it to you."

I still nodded, looking at her in silence.

To be honest, at this moment, facing Duan Ruoxue's affectionate eyes, I really don't know what to say.

I don't know where this girl came from, but she just wants to follow me all the way, and I can't find a single reason to convince myself to get rid of her.

It may be that when Duan Ruoxue rescued me for the first time, she appeared so amazing that I always had an indescribable feeling for her.

……

Early the next morning, Lu Le and I left the village and rushed to the town.

The town is called Dagu Town, a small town in the remote mountainous area, and when I came, I had already passed by once, and I didn't pay much attention to it at the time.

There was only one long street in the whole town, and all the vendors were concentrated here, and since it was not a market day, when we arrived, there were only a few passers-by on the street.

Before leaving, Lu Le had already asked Father Miao to inquire, and Father Miao said that Ma Rufeng had an incense and candle shop in the town.

After Lu Le and I arrived in the town, we found this place first.

The shop is an old shop, with no signboard, located in the middle of two old houses at the end of the street.

There are a few colorful paper people and a lot of incense candles and paper money at the door, and the whole shop is not big, only twenty or thirty square meters.

After Lu Le and I entered the door, a middle-aged man with glasses got up to greet him and asked what we needed to buy?

This middle-aged man has a mustache and a conspicuous black mole at the corner of his mouth, and his appearance is extremely ordinary.

I asked if the middle-aged man was the boss, and he nodded.

"You don't have a local accent, it's from out of town, right?"

Lu Le snorted and said that his relatives had died of illness and came to mourn.

The middle-aged man took out two cigarettes from his pocket, I waved my hand and said no, and he handed one to Lu Le.

Then he asked us, which family are our relatives? Did you find Mr.?

Lu Le made up a name and said that Mr. had already been invited.

The middle-aged man smiled, and then let us choose slowly.

I looked at the middle-aged man with glasses in front of me and thought to myself that since he said that he was the boss, it must be Ma Rufeng.

It's just that others seem to be a little mediocre, like a profiteer in the market, and I really can't see anything outstanding.

Then I took a quick look around the shop, and the shop was no different from the other incense and candle shops, the only difference was that there was a red lantern hanging on the wall directly opposite the door.

The workmanship of the lantern is very exquisite, and it seems that the materials used are also very unusual, and the whole look is obviously much better than the paper figures at the door.

Seeing that Lu Le and I were both looking at these two lanterns, the middle-aged man leaned over and said, "Are you two interested in them?" ”

I said, this lantern seems to be made chic, I don't know what it is for?

The middle-aged man held his glasses and smiled: "You laymen don't understand, folk lanterns have the meaning of summoning spirits, and my two lanterns do not summon spirits, only attract spirits." ”

Tricks?

"What are you angry about?" I asked.

Lu Le smoked a cigarette and said, "The boss can't be talking about fortune, right?" ”

The middle-aged man laughed: "Don't dare, don't dare, who does our business, where do you dare to seek wealth." ”

I thought to myself, too, if you open an incense and candle shop and make a fortune, then I don't know how many people will die around?

"You don't know, my lantern is yin."

"Yin Qi?"

"What's the use of that?" I asked.

The boss smiled and said nothing, and after a long time, he said, "I'm really sorry, you can just take a look at this thing, I don't plan to sell it in the store." ”

Lu Le said, we are just curious and ask casually.

Then, he pretended to buy two handfuls of incense and a few stacks of paper money.

After paying and going out, we found a noodle restaurant and ordered two bowls of noodles.

Soon the noodles were served on the table, and Lu Le took a big gulp of it, I didn't have much appetite, and I only ate a few bites, and then I didn't eat any more.

"Brother Lu, Ma Rufeng doesn't seem to be anything special, I think he is just an ordinary trader, I don't know if you found anything?"

Seeing that Lu Le didn't speak after he came out, I was a little anxious at this time, and I couldn't help but ask him.

"Lu Yuan, you remember, people can't be disguised, often the more ordinary some people are, the more difficult it is to deal with."

Lu Le said and took a sip of noodle soup, looked up at me and said, "You are still not careful enough, Ma Rufeng has actually leaked a flaw just now!" ”

"What's the flaw?" I hurriedly leaned over and asked.

"It's the lantern in his shop!"

I was stunned, "Brother Lu, what's wrong with the lantern?" ”

"Ma Rufeng is right, some folk lanterns are indeed used to summon spirits, which are called soul lanterns, also called ghost lanterns."

"But he said to recruit yin qi, there is a problem here!"

I heard Lu Le mention the ghost lamp, and at this time, I suddenly remembered that in the village of the patriarch Mu Sang, the old lady Liu had used it once.

At that time, Wang Ling'er and Duan Ruoxue said that the lantern was lit with human oil, which could play a role in gathering souls.

Now that this kind of thing also appears in Ma Rufeng's shop, does he also want to gather souls?

I asked Lu Le, did he want to gather souls?

Lu Le shook his head, "Didn't he say that the purpose was to attract yin qi." ”

I said, "I'm afraid this is unreliable, Ma Rufeng must be lying to deceive us." ”

Lu Le smiled: "Lu Yuan, sometimes, lies are also true, Ma Rufeng is not an immortal, from the entrance to the door, he can see that we are not ordinary people, but he still didn't expect your identity." ”

"What does it have to do with my identity?"

I still haven't quite figured it out.

"Of course it matters, he knows that we are not ordinary people, and we can't be deceived casually, so when he said that he was recruiting yin qi, nine times out of ten it was true."

But it was this sentence that exposed a fatal problem, Lu Yuan, think about it, why did he recruit yin qi? Why did the old king leave his name in the message? ”

Lu Le's words made me suddenly open my mouth, and I suddenly woke up in an instant, yes, why is he recruiting yin qi?

It must be for the fairy bone golden seal!

Master Qinggu also transformed my yin qi for me at the beginning, saying that there will be a place where it will be used in the future, if Ma Rufeng knows this, will he also want to use yin qi to attack on the immortal bone golden seal?

If Lu Le and I were outsiders, I would definitely not have thought of this, but unfortunately, I, the descendant of the Immortal Spirit Sect, knew about this joint!

Therefore, it can be concluded from this that Ma Rufeng is indeed the idea of beating the immortal bone golden seal!

And maybe, this immortal bone golden seal of Xuangong Mountain is in his hands!

But what does Ma Rufeng mean by using the stupid girl osmanthus to make these strange things in the village?

I feel that things should be far more simple than that, and Lu Le also means this, he said that he has to observe secretly for a period of time before he can draw conclusions.

The two of us had eaten noodles, and when I came out of the store, I had just taken a few steps when I turned my head and saw a familiar figure.

How is she?

I pulled Lu Le, and Lu Le was stunned, "What, you kid can't move his feet when he sees a beautiful woman, right?" ”

I hurriedly said, Brother Lu, that woman's name is Cheng Lin, and they are all the way with Bai Xiaodao Chen Zuo.

"They've found out here, too?"

Lu Le had just lit a cigarette, and Cheng Lin on the other side also spotted me.

"Lu Yuan, you're here too!" Cheng Lin smiled and said hello and walked in our direction.

As her soft female voice came out, a few young men around her turned their heads, and their eyes instantly straightened.

And the few fruit sellers around me also had bulging eyes, as if they wanted to squeeze out their entire eyeballs, staring straight at Cheng Lin's snow-white, slender thighs.

Only then did I know how wise it was for Lu Le not to let Duan Ruoxue come, if these two women collided together, they would go around the town for a walk.

Don't expect any secret investigations, it is estimated that it will attract attention everywhere.

"Why are you here too?" I asked.

Cheng Lin glanced at Lu Le next to me.

I introduced that it was my good friend Lu Le.

Cheng Lin's face changed slightly, "It's okay, I'll come over to say hello to you, the things in the town are not simple, be careful in everything." ”

As she spoke, she glanced at me and Lu Le meaningfully, then turned around and left.

"This woman is so strange!" Lu Le muttered.

I say it's a little weird.

Actually, I knew in my heart that Cheng Lin was there when she saw Lu Le, so she didn't say much.

They have always suspected that Lu Le has a problem, so naturally they will not reveal too many things, especially in front of him.

After seeing Cheng Lin leave, I asked Lu Le what to do next?

Lu Le threw away the cigarette butt: "Have you forgotten what Ma Rufeng is doing?" As long as we keep an eye on him, we will definitely find some clues. ”

After finishing speaking, Lu Le asked me to follow him to the nearby Shiyang Village first, according to the news we found on the way, that place was the hometown of the silly girl Osmanthus.

We called a motorcycle, all the way to Shiyang Village, on the way Lu Le asked the master who ran the motorcycle, do you know about the silly osmanthus in Shiyang Village?

The motorcyclist smoked a cigarette and the smell of cigarettes in his mouth and replied that the people in the village were xenophobic, and that they were not from the village, so how could they know about them.

I heard him say he didn't know, and we didn't ask again.

About half an hour later, the driver drove us to a small bridge intersection and stopped, pointed to the bridge and said: "Inside is Shiyang Village, you can go in by yourself, I won't enter the village anyway!" ”

After getting out of the car and paying, Lu Le and I crossed the small bridge directly and walked towards the head of the village.

When she was halfway through, an aunt came out of her face, and Lu Le stopped her and asked, do you know where Osmanthus's home is?

The aunt was stunned for a moment, as if her ears were not good: "Who are you talking about?" ”

My voice became a little heavier and shouted at her: "Auntie, we say osmanthus!" ”

"Ouch, you young man, I'm not deaf, why are you yelling so loudly? Ghost roaring, I think you're talking nonsense! ”

I was speechless for a moment, this aunt has a pretty hot temper.

"Auntie, don't be angry, we just want to ask about Osmanthus's home." Lu Le smiled and apologized.

"No need to ask, she's already dead."

Auntie's tone was very indifferent, and she almost didn't even look at us.

"No, we just want to find out, you can tell us the location of her house, or you can tell us about her." Lu Le continued to laugh.

"You know what? A lonely silly girl who has been dead for more than ten years, what do you two big men know now? ”

When Lu Le and I heard this aunt's words, we were stunned.

Been dead for more than ten years?

What's the situation?

Didn't Osmanthus die not long ago, why did she die for more than ten years here?
