Chapter Twenty-Seven: Extinguishing Gu
The timid had already run to the side to watch the excitement, and only Cheng Qiang, who had come back to his senses, and the young man who was cutting Gu worms just now squeezed their bodies in front of the door, blocking its retreat
Blood kept flowing from Qi Lu's hands, but Qi Lu didn't care at all, he had to kill this centipede Gu as soon as possible
The centipede Gu that was about to pounce on Cheng Qiang actually stopped the direction of the attack, it turned around and stared at Qi Lu's strange eyes the size of two pigeon eggs, looking at the blood on the ground, hissing in its mouth
"Why do you still think it's the coolest thing to bite me," Qi Luben didn't know why it turned back the direction, but seeing it hesitating there and taking a step back, he suddenly understood in his heart, dare to love, you like to suck people's blood
Qi Lu was thinking about how to lure it into the bait, when he saw Cheng Qiang behind it, regardless of the danger, he grabbed its two sharp beaks that were exposed outside his mouth and pulled them out hard
This time, the centipede Gu had no chance to shut up, it also realized that the danger was coming, and twisted its body desperately, hitting Cheng Qiang with its tail to knock him down
Cheng Qiang followed his heart sideways and rode on the centipede Gu's body with his legs, so that the centipede Gu could neither escape nor hurt himself
"Brother looks at you"
Hearing Cheng Qiang's call, Qi Lu no longer hesitated, and flew forward, the incomparably sharp knife edge had already pierced the centipede Gu's mouth and penetrated deep into its throat
The centipede Gu monster screamed, its whole body twitched, and it spat yellow foam in its mouth, and after a while, it straightened out more than a hundred pairs of feet, struggled a few times, and died
"It's so dangerous," Qi Lu pulled out the knife and sat down on the ground like mud
Ding Xiaolan saw that the blood on Qi Lu's hands was still flowing, and hurriedly found a towel to bandage his wounds
A wisp of black gas with a pungent smell rose from the corpse of the centipede Gu, Ding Xiaolan covered her nose and opened the window to let the strange smell dissipate as soon as possible, so that the smoked person would not breathe uncomfortably, and when the gas was completely volatilized, the corpse of the insect Gu also turned into a puddle of yellow water
"Wife, you died so miserably," Cheng Qiang leaned over his wife, his voice whimpered, and he didn't know if he was revealing his true feelings or howling
"Mr. Cheng, I'm sorry, I couldn't save your wife," Qi Lu also choked up, blaming himself for his incompetence
"Brother, I don't have anything to do with you, I remember your great kindness," Cheng Qiang suddenly remembered something, and he scolded at the gang of subordinates: "I fuck your ancestors, the eighteenth generation is usually a deep brotherhood, and the two ribs are stuck in the ribs, but today at this critical moment, they are all fucking hiding aside and watching the excitement"
Those young people's faces suddenly became embarrassed, and the young man who was blocking the centipede Gu with him just now stepped forward and said cautiously: "Big brother, you can't say that, brothers have never seen such strange things, so they were stunned for a while, and they didn't know what to do."
"How far do you give me, how far do you go" Cheng Qiang raised his hand to give him a slap, and suddenly realized that he was still a little righteous today, and then turned around and scolded: "Get out of here."
Seeing that the boss was angry, the little gangsters all slipped out of the house in a funny way, and Qi Lu also calmed down at this time, he stood up and checked the corpse of the centipede Gu, hoping to find some useful clues
"Brother, why don't we burn this insect corpse," Cheng Qiang asked
"This can't be done" Qi Lu hurriedly waved his hand and refused: "This is physical evidence, I still have to count on it to find out the person who harmed you"
"Yes, brother, you're really a master, I didn't expect that"
"Brother Cheng, I have something I want to ask if you can tell me the truth."
"If you have anything to say, I will never hide it" After experiencing the centipede Gu incident, Cheng Qiang felt that he was also friends in distress, he was full of rivers and lakes, and he regarded Qi Lu as a friend long ago
"Sister-in-law was tricked today, it is likely that it was because of you, I don't know if you know which enemies did it"
"This" Cheng Qiang's expression was a little unnatural, he hesitated for a moment and said to Qi Lu: "It's not a shame that the person who offends with my character is not one or two, many people want to put me to death, this matter must be coming at me, but if you want to tell who is making trouble, I really can't answer for a while."
"Then who do you think is the most suspicious?"
"Who else is, of course, the king surnamed Pei," Cheng Qiang replied categorically
"Ah" Qi Lu had already guessed that he and Pei Liping had been married a lot, otherwise he would not have said so, he glanced at Ding Xiaolan who was standing on the side, took out his mobile phone and put it back in his purse
After all, she had been with Qi Lu for a while, and Ding Xiaolan suddenly understood Qi Lu's intentions, so she secretly took out her mobile phone and turned on the recording function
Qi Lu saw that Ding Xiaolan was ready, so he cleared his throat and said, "What grievances does Mr. Pei have with you, can you tell your brother?"
"This" Cheng Qiang hesitated again, he clenched his fists and asked Qi Lu: "Until now, I don't know the name of my brother and this beauty."
"My name is Qi Lu, he is my assistant Ding Xiaolan," after speaking, he took out the business card of the Kunlun Office from his pocket and handed it to Cheng Qiang
Cheng Qiang took the business card and looked at it, thinking to himself, it seems that this brother is still an honest person, it is indeed from other places, I am like fire and water with him, but today I am still worth interacting with regardless of previous suspicions, this kind of person is still worth associating, so he nodded towards Qi Lu with an appreciative eye, and then beckoned the gangsters outside to come in
"You order a coffin for me, and you help me contact the funeral home, and the rest of the funeral hall is set up in the house, and I will keep watch for three days."
Everyone listened to Cheng Qiang's order, and they all went to Qi Lu, and when they saw that there were only three of them left in the house, they asked Cheng Qiang again: "How did Mr. Pei offend his brother and cause you to come to him to trouble?"
Cheng Qiang looked at his wife's cold corpse and sighed: "It's all because I'm short-tempered, and I don't be gentle enough with her on weekdays to let the bastard surnamed Pei take advantage of the weakness to seduce my wife."
Qi Lu was shocked and asked: "This is true"
"I, Cheng Qiang, have never lied to people in my life, I checked my wife's WeChat yesterday and found that this bastard asked my wife out a few days ago to fool around" Cheng Qiang gritted his teeth and said: "Dare to cuckold me, how can I spare him, he didn't kill him, it's already polite"
Qi Lu was silent, and suddenly remembered that day, when he was pretending to be a government official in the hospital to watch the camera video, Pei Liping took a detour to the back door to meet the woman in white, although he couldn't see her face clearly at the time, but now when he heard Cheng Qiang say this, he can roughly judge that she is Cheng Qiang's wife
Cheng Qiang wanted to scold Pei Liping again, but he suddenly stopped talking, and there was a strange expression on his face
"Mr. Cheng, what's wrong with you, are you uncomfortable?" Qi Lu also noticed that his expression was wrong
"I, I" Cheng Qiang was suddenly speechless
Qi Lu saw that his face was pale, and he could clearly hear the sound of insects biting from his bones
"It's not good, you've also fallen into the Gu," Qi Lu suddenly panicked, he hurriedly pressed Cheng Qiang to sit on the ground, and he himself sat down cross-legged opposite him, pressing his hand on the door of his head
"Xiao Ding, do you remember the spell I taught you last time, throw away all distractions and recite it?"
"Okay," Ding Xiaolan learned Qi Lu's usual behavior, and began to recite the incantation with her feet, although it was a bit nondescript, but Qi Lu had no time to laugh at her
Although Qi Lu couldn't save Cheng Qiang's wife, he was still confident in saving Cheng Qiang, after all, after fighting with the centipede Gu just now, he knew its habits and weak links, so he must not make a mistake this time, and he must force this new centipede Gu out of Cheng Qiang's body
Qi Lu gritted his teeth and untied the towel that Ding Xiaolan had just wrapped on his wound, and then squeezed the wound with his other hand, and the wound that was already congealed burst open, and blood flowed out of his arm again
Qi Lu raised his bleeding hand, and Cheng Qiang said loudly to him: "Open your mouth quickly"
Cheng Qiang was already panicking, afraid that he would repeat the fate of his wife, and hurriedly opened his mouth according to Qi Lu's instructions, and in an instant, he felt that there was a living creature crawling up in his stomach, and there was an unprecedented churning in his stomach, followed by a convulsion of his mouth, and he vomited uncontrollably with "wow".
Qi Lu stood up at the same time as Cheng Qiang opened his mouth, and walked away from him, pointed at the pile of filth that Cheng Qiang spit out, and said, "Centipede Gu likes to suck human blood the most, and now it has been lured out of your body by me."
Cheng Qiang endured the nausea in his stomach, looked at the filth that he spit out, and found that there was a mass of things in it that was slowly squirming
Something slowly came out of this pile of filth, Qi Lu looked coldly, and sure enough, as he expected, it was a centipede, it was already jumping up on the ground, and its body was slowly getting bigger
Qi Lu could not allow it to continue to grow, and his right hand quickly grabbed its head and lifted it off the ground
"Give me the knife," Qi Lu said to Ding Xiaolan
Ding Xiaolan hurriedly stopped chanting the spell and handed the knife to Qi Lu
Qi Lu recited the same incantation as Ding Xiaolan, and after reciting it, he pinched the insect Gu with his right hand, and then grinned, and the sharp beak swung straight down, like biting Qi Lu, and then looking for a chance to get out
Qi Lu knew that its body was a weak point, he took advantage of the insect Gu's struggle, calmly raised the knife to stab it in the mouth, and then turned the blade to slide down the insect Gu's body, and in a blink of an eye, he split it in half
Seeing that he had solved the centipede Gu, Qi Lu held back the excitement in his heart, and as soon as he let go of the hand of the insect pinching Gu, the centipede Gu fell straight to the ground, and before his body completely fell to the ground, it had turned into black smoke
"Thank you, brother, for saving your life," Cheng Qiang hurriedly struggled to get up and thanked Qi Lu, who wiped the sweat beads on his face while saying that he didn't have to be polite
Suddenly there was a shrill sound of a police car outside the door, Cheng Qiang frowned, walked to the door vigilantly and looked out
It didn't take long for Qi Lu to hear messy footsteps outside the door, and then saw a police officer in his forties walking in with several young policemen in uniform
Cheng Qiang sneered when he saw the policemen breaking in and said, "Why does Officer Wang have time to come to me today?"
The police officer surnamed Wang looked at the corpse of Cheng Qiang's wife, who was covered in blood, and hurriedly ordered the police to block the scene, and then took Qi Lu and others out of the house, arranged for people to keep them all in the courtyard to prevent anyone from escaping
"It's over, it's time to get into trouble," Ding Xiaolan had never dealt with the police, and her heart was already flustered
"It's okay, there are many of us who prove that my wife's business has nothing to do with you, miss, you won't be in trouble," Cheng Qiang was already in the underworld, and he was used to this kind of scene for a long time
At this time, Officer Wang also came out of the house and shouted at everyone: "Take everything away and bring it back to the bureau for me."
Several policemen immediately took out handcuffs and escorted everyone to the police car
