"Qiu Wan! Qiu Wan! Qiu Jiangong sat down on the ground and cried bitterly, "My good daughter! ”

Xiahoudun slowly put down the gun, gasped heavily, glanced at Cai Yang, and said, "How can you hesitate at this time." ”

Cai Yang came back to his senses, his expression was a little depressed, he patted Xiahoudun on the shoulder, said "I'm sorry", and walked to the edge of the roof, leaned on the low fence and took out the walkie-talkie to notify the police.

Seeing Qiu Jiangong kneeling on the ground and feeling in pain, Xiahoudun stepped forward, also squatted on the ground, and said, "You want your daughter to stay, but have you considered her feelings?" Do you know what it's like to be a ghost? ”

"I've been alone since then, you know?" Qiu Jiangong raised his head, looked at Xiahoudun and said, "My wife is gone, my children are gone, what's the point of my life?" Forget it when you're dead! ”

"Then why don't you die before you sell your daughter!" Xiahoudun glared at Qiu Jiangong and said angrily.

When Qiu Jiangong heard this, he was not only frightened, but also thought of something, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he only looked at Xiahoudun's serious face tremblingly.

Xiahoudun's tone softened a little, "People, it is not easy to come to this world once, in just a few decades, a few years, it is just a drop in the ocean for heaven and earth. So what do people live for? ”

Qiu Jiangong listened to Xiahoudun's words, thought for a while, and shook his head suspiciously.

"To prove that there exists." Xiahoudun squatted down and looked at Qiu Jiangong, "Prove your own existence, and also to prove the existence of the person you love." After death, people enter reincarnation, yin and yang are scattered, and under the guidance of yin, the six realms are redistributed. If you die today, there will be no more problems, nothing will be solved, just a cowardly escape. And who will prove that they have come to this world, and who will be willing to pay their respects? ”

"I ......" Qiu Jiangong was speechless for a while, and fell into deep thought.

At this time, several policemen also went up to the roof of the building, and two of them rushed directly to Chen Biao who was sitting on the ground, "Chen Biao! You are suspected of committing a crime and have been arrested by the police! ”

"Come with us!" One of the policemen handcuffed Chen Biao and dragged him away.

Chen Biao was dragged by the police, his eyes revealed incomparable fear, and he muttered: "Ghost! It's a ghost! ”

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go!" The police dragged Chen Biao again and carried him downstairs.

"Team Leader Xiahou!" Deputy Director Qin Wei walked up to Xiahoudun and said, "Thank you for your great contribution to maintaining social order in this action. ”

"Deputy Director Qin praised it falsely." Xiahoudun waved his hand, smiled, and then took out his mobile phone, clicked on the recording program and handed it to Qin Wei, "Qin Bureau, here is Qiu Wan's father's confession, I hope it can be helpful to the police in the next work." ”

Qin Wei was stunned for a moment, then took the mobile phone and put it next to his ear to listen for a while, then nodded slightly, and said to Xiahoudun: "I see, I will trouble Team Leader Xiahou to copy the audio file to us in a while." Based on this confession, the police will prosecute the suspect. Qin Wei returned the mobile phone to Xiahoudun, turned his head to look at Qiu Jiangong who was kneeling on the ground, and asked Xiahoudun: "This is Qiu Wan's father?" ”

"Yes." Xiahoudun replied.

"It's a pity to lose two relatives at one time, and even a white-haired person sent a black-haired person." Qin Wei couldn't help but sigh to himself, he pondered for a while, squatted down and looked at Qiu Jiangong and said, "However, if you don't report it, you are also at fault, so let's go with us and explain the truth of the matter to us clearly." ”

Qiu Jiangong looked at Qin Wei blankly, then looked up at Xiahoudun again, and then lowered his head and said, "Okay." ”

"Let's go, then." Qin Wei motioned for Qiu Jiangong to go with him, and then said to Xiahoudun: "There will be a period later." ”

Qiu Jiangong stood up, looked at Xiahoudun, and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything, so he silently followed Qin Wei and left.

Seeing that the police were all gone, Xiahoudun turned around and glanced at Cai Yang, who was sitting quietly on the low wall on the top of the building, and then walked in front of him.

Cai Yang hadn't recovered from the tense battle just now, not because the opponent was strong, but because the incident was too sad, he looked at Xiahoudun, relieved himself, and then said: "You say, why are the people of our Spirit Recording Bureau so old that this kind of thing happens?" ”

"That's ......," Xiahoudun stepped forward and patted Cai Yang's shoulder, "All alien spirits are produced by negative influences, and we must be prepared to face these things when we see that we have to face alien spirits." ”

"Then you say, why are we born to be from the Spirit Record Bureau?" Cai Yang's expression was a little frustrated, and his eyes were a little confused, "If I were given the opportunity to choose, I don't think I would choose the Spirit Record Bureau." You tell me? ”

"I often think like this," Xiahoudun patted Cai Yang on the shoulder, "Since there are strange spirits in the world, someone must have to do these jobs, right?" ”

"And then?" Cai Yang asked.

Xiahoudun paused for a moment, then looked up at the night sky, and continued: "I'm glad that I do this kind of work, and I also hope that this kind of work is only done by me, so that other people don't have to face this, and all the sorrow and pain will be left to me alone." ”

After listening to Xiahoudun's words, Cai Yang was stunned for a while, and then laughed out loud, patted Xiahoudun's chest and said, "Brother Monkey, it's really condescending to let you be a team leader." ”

"What do I have to do then, according to what you mean?" Xiahoudun asked with some curiosity.

"What should you be?" Cai Yang pointed his hand into the distance, "Build a temple on the mountain over there, and make offerings to you." ”

Cai Yang stopped talking and laughed. Xiahou was stunned for a moment, and then laughed along. The hearty laughter of the brothers resounded in the night sky, as if they had not experienced anything unpleasant just now.

Early in the morning, Xiahoudun woke up from his sleep and subconsciously wanted to hug Chen Xuan, but he hugged him empty, and then found that he was sleeping in the guest room of Cai Yang's house. Xia Houdun touched his mobile phone, took it and took a look, and found that it was five minutes and six o'clock, and he was used to getting up early and did not go back to sleep. In fact, Xiahoudun is not used to living in other people's homes, but Cai Yang is too hospitable, and the relationship is really good, so Xiahoudun did not refuse.

Xiahoudun sat up, stunned for a while, and then came to the kitchen of Cai Yang's house, he was used to getting up early every day to make breakfast, he felt a little empty, but after all, this was in someone else's house, and it was naturally a bit rude to start cooking rashly, and it would be considered that he had mental problems, so he had to stand alone in the kitchen in a silent daze.

Xia Houdun slowly walked to the edge of the kitchen countertop, looking at a set of imported knives on it, the bamboo knife holder, the blade and handle are integrated, all made of high-compression steel, very beautiful. Xiahoudun touched it with his hands, and it felt very good, thinking about when he would get such a set of knives.

Thinking about it, Xia Houdun's thinking jumped to work again. What Xiahou Yuan said before was indeed a bit alarmist, the purpose of Lu Bu's long-term stationing in the northern part of Xudu, Xiahou Yuan probably guessed that maybe the demons wanted to invade on a large scale, so it was not an exaggeration to send Lu Bu to investigate and take the lead. And the task to be arranged after New Year's Day is probably related to supporting and assisting Lu Bu. Surrounding support, coupled with the presence of this brave and skilled warrior, there should not be much danger when I think about it. But he still always felt in his heart that something unexpected would happen on this assignment. What is it exactly? Or is it because you think too much? Although the special task that has been mentioned in the department has not yet been issued, Xiahoudun still has a faint uneasiness in his heart.

Suddenly, Xiahoudun felt a powerful aura behind him approaching him, and Xiahoudun, who was distracted, immediately became alert, picked up a Western-style chef's knife from the set of knives on the countertop, and turned around and stabbed at the aura. And Xiahoudun immediately reacted that something was wrong, and quickly withdrew his hand, and the sharp tip of the Western-style chef's knife stopped at the throat of Cai Yang, who had just woken up.

"Well...... Cai Yang's sleepy eyes, which were not too open just now, immediately widened, and his sleepiness was also frightened.

Xiahoudun breathed a long sigh of relief and inserted the knife back into the knife holder, "Why don't you walk without making a sound?" ”

"Speak up," Cai Yang complained, "I didn't respond to the call I just called, but I almost got stabbed to death by you when I came over." ”

"I just got distracted," Xiahoudun patted the frightened Cai Yang and said slightly apologetically, "I'm sorry, brother." ”

"Okay, isn't this dead?" Cai Yang also relieved a little, and rubbed his face with both hands, "What do you think, just now." ”

"It's nothing, it's just a little thing." Xiahoudun said perfunctorily.

"Do you want to work again?" Cai Yang looked at Xiahou and smiled, "Do you know what the people around you call you?" ”

"What's it called?" Xiahoudun leaned against the kitchen countertop, looked at Cai Yang, and asked.

"Workaholic." Cai Yang gestured with his hand and said, "Spirit Record Bureau, no matter where you are, you are the only one who is still at work on Saturday among all the leaders of the action group." Go to work, you say, you come to charge, you come to make suggestions, I heard that you also take care of things that ghosts and people in the yin can't touch, you say that you worry so much every day, are you tired. ”

"Won't I worry about it?" Xiahoudun intervened and retorted a little unhappily, "It turns out that there are so many things to deal with. Oh, I don't bother with it, and you don't think about it, so who cares about all these things? ”

"If you can do less, you can do less, and if you can, you can, you don't care." Cai Yang got a cup of cold white and handed it to Xiahoudun, and continued: "Let's take yesterday's incident as an example, if you put it in another group, maybe this matter will be over." As for you, you have to investigate to the end, you have done so many things more than others, and the final task is just a single order, and if you don't make a mistake, you have to be criticized. ”

"Ahem." Suddenly, two female coughs came from Cai Yang's room.

Xiahoudun shook his head and said to Cai Yang helplessly: "Okay, you don't say a few words, wake up your daughter-in-law." ”

"It's almost time to wake up, and I have to put on makeup for a long time." Cai Yang turned his head and leaned in the direction of the house to take a look, then turned back to Xiahoudun and said, "Let's go out for breakfast in a while, and when we come to Tiangu, we will have some distinctive breakfast, and I will send you to the train station after eating." ”

"Aren't you going to send your daughter-in-law to work?" Xiahoudun asked.

"No, she has a shuttle." Saying that, Cai Yang took a few steps in the direction of the bathroom, and said, "You wait for me to wash up, and then we will go out." ”

After breakfast, Cai Yang drove to Tiangu Railway Station with Xiahoudun.

"Brother Monkey, have you booked your tickets in advance?" Cai Yang said as he led Xiahoudun in the direction of the entrance of the station.

"It's booked," Xiahoudun followed Cai Yang, looking down at his phone, "The car is more than nine o'clock, and it will arrive at ten o'clock." As he spoke, Xiahoudun asked a strange smell, and Xiahoudun, who reacted quickly, immediately recalled that this was the smell he had smelled after Xu Du fought with that group of corpse spirits. What does it taste like? Xiahoudun couldn't help asking.

"What's the smell?" Cai Yang listened to Xiahoudun's question, sniffed hard, and said, "I didn't smell it either." ”

"Don't you smell it?" Xiahoudun asked subconsciously, but his eyes searched for the source of this taste. Suddenly, he noticed an elderly woman selling something to passers-by. The old woman was showing a piece of cloth about sixty centimeters square, blue and white, with a picture of a young girl leaning over to pick flowers. Xiahoudun took a few steps forward, walked up to the old woman, and stared intently at the square scarf.

"Buy a batik," said the old woman, smiling, "a cheap, fifteen dollars." ”

"Batik?" Xiahoudun muttered to himself, "Is this the taste?" ”

"It doesn't matter if it smells," the old woman quickly explained, "just wash it." ”

Xia Houdun thought about it, would this batik have anything to do with corpses? Could it be that the group of corpses was not created near Xudu, but was transported to other places by means of transportation transporting batik? It's also too unbelievable, how can a large number of corpses be transported without being discovered? And although this batik has a smell, it is obviously unrealistic to want other things to be contaminated with this smell.

"Maybe I'm thinking too much." Xiahoudun muttered quietly.

"Fifteen pieces, will you buy it?" The old woman continued to sell the piece of batik.

"Buy, buy." Cai Yang saw that Xiahoudun was interested in the batik, but he didn't speak, so he stepped forward and took out fifteen yuan and bought the square scarf. Cai Yang handed the cloth to Xiahoudun, "What do you want to do here?" ”

Xiahoudun didn't answer, but took the square towel first, smelled it, and once again confirmed that the smell was the same as the last time he smelled it in Xudu. Then he shook his head and said to Cai Yang: "It's hard to say, I still have a chance to explain to you again." ”

"That's fine." Cai Yang raised his eyebrows, and didn't ask any further, he pointed ahead and motioned to Xiahoudun to walk in the direction of the entrance to the station, "It's not too early, it's important to catch the train." ”

What is the connection between this batik and the corpse? And what does this correlation say? Xiahoudun breathed a long sigh of relief, then said goodbye to Cai Yang, walked in the direction of the entrance to the station, and also took the train back to Yandu with these questions.
