Chapter Twenty-Nine: Lao Luo's Thoughts
Yuanyou's question brought Chen Xiao back to his senses.
She was a little sad, and her eyes didn't dodge, "I don't know what that yellow talisman is, I picked it up." ”
"Picked up? Where is it? ”
It was impossible for Chen Xiao to tell the truth, "Just when I came up just now." ”
Yuanyou didn't say anything more, she felt that Chen Xiao might really not know what this thing was, but it was a bit far-fetched to say that it was picked up on the roof.
Who would use such a charm, is it a coincidence or...? It is impossible for Yuanyou to know, but one thing is to be thankful, if there is no such talisman, I am afraid that Yu Hui's soul will not be able to summon it back, and fortunately, the talisman is broken and not very powerful, so the remnant soul inside can be successfully freed.
Yuanyou put away his doubts and walked over to the three people over there.
Zhong Ye spoke first, "Master Yuan, cow! Admire, admire. ”
Luo Baifan pulled up Yu Haibo, who was kneeling on the ground.
Yu Haibo turned his head and wiped his face with his hand, no longer crying, his eyes were full of gratitude, "Thank you!" Then he also showed gratitude to Chen Xiao behind Yuanyou.
These people present did not know that this transcendent Dharma event was a great test of the Dao of the practitioners, and if something went wrong in any link, the transcendence would fail.
When he went downstairs, Zhong Ye also asked, "Why is it a little different from what you see on TV?" ”
He thought that by summoning Yu Hui's soul, he would be able to say a few words to the people present, but he didn't expect to ascend to heaven in one fell swoop.
Yuanyou smiled, "Yin and Yang are two heavens, it is not the other, if the soul can talk, what is the use of life and death." ”
After speaking, he suddenly seemed to remember something, took out the iron Bodhisattva statue from his bag and handed it to Zhong Ye,
"This Bodhisattva statue is no problem, you can rest assured that you can collect it, and find a chance for people to see if it's real or fake."
Zhong Ye took it and looked at it again with a smile.
When he got downstairs, Yu Haibo asked the car to take Chen Xiao back to school.
And Luo Baifan proposed that Yuanyou come to live at his house, Yuanyou hesitated, but after finding that Luo Baifan gave him a look, he felt that this old friend seemed to want to say something to him, so he agreed.
Luo Baifan's community is called Quanmin Community, and after a short time, Yuanyou followed Luo Baifan to his residence.
As soon as I entered the door, the curtains didn't seem to have been opened since morning, and it was dark in the house, and the moment I turned on the light, I was really taken aback by Yuanyou.
There were several pairs of unwashed socks on the sofa, the floor was dirty and messy, there were a lot of things piled up on the coffee table, a lot of cigarette butts in the ashtray, and the most conspicuous thing was the bag of buns with green hairs, which were not thrown away, and there was a thick layer of dust on the furniture.
"You're also a former soldier, so what's the mess at home." Yuanyou said with a frown.
Luo Baifan smiled bitterly, "I don't have time to clean up." ”
In Yuanyou's impression, in those years when there was no contact, I happened to hear someone say that Luo Baifan was married, but at the moment, it doesn't look like there is a woman at home.
"What about your lover?"
Luo Baifan lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and said lightly with a disapproving expression, "Leave!" ... Just last month. ”
Yuanyou knows Luo Baifan very well, he was born in the military, he has always been neat and hygienic, meticulous, and he must have something in his heart that can make him such a decadent.
Yuanyou didn't speak, he knew that it was useless to say anything at this time, he moved the things on the sofa and sat down, and then waited for Luo Baifan to finish smoking the cigarette.
"Lao Yuan, do you want to come back?" Luo Baifan pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray.
"Where?" Yuanyou was very puzzled.
"Rebuilding the nine, of course." Luo Baifan looked at Yuanyou with that fanatical look, as if only work could temporarily make him forget some troubles.
Yuanyou shook his head.
Luo Baifan immediately sat next to Yuanyou, "You don't believe you can regroup?" In the past, Yu Haibo didn't believe this, but now that you helped him and let him know that there are these incredible things, he will definitely be able to agree, and he is also imminent, recently..."
"I'm not going back."
"Are you still mad at me? Mind if I didn't contact you? ”
"No, I'm not suitable for working in the unit, I just have to live my ordinary life." Yuanyou said.
"I'll tell you something, you decide whether to come back or not."
Yuanyou was a little helpless.
"Recently, our bureau has taken over two cases, which are connected together, and there are similarities."
When Yuanyou heard the similarities, he frowned, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.
Luo Baifan continued, "The first case was in the middle of this month, when a male corpse was found in the cave in the back mountain.
The second case was a few days ago, a female corpse was found in the big tree hole in the suburbs. In their bodies, they are the same as those in '88. ”
Yuanyou's hand couldn't help but clench, he unconsciously raised his hand, when he did it just now, the wound after biting his finger was magically healed, he looked at it again in some confusion, and continued to listen to Luo Baifan.
"I want you to come back this time, not only because of the recent discovery of these two cases, but also the 1993 specimen room rape case, if it wasn't for Yu Haibo, that case would not have been sealed and unsolved.
Lao Yuan, you must come back! I need you. After Luo Baifan finished speaking, he picked up a cigarette again.
Yuanyou took his cigarette from his mouth with his hand, "Let's smoke less in the future!" This thing is not good for the body. ”
Luo Baifan was not angry, but smiled, "You agreed?" You agreed, okay, you wait for my news, reorganize the special case team, and this matter will be done quickly. ”
Yuanyou acquiesced, Luo Baifan really understood him, because these cases, if they were related to the case in 1988, would it be possible to find the magic weapon that the Yuan family had already lost in these clues?
Night after night.
Luo Baifan knocked on the door of the director's office, Yu Haibo was a little surprised when he saw that it was him, but he still politely thanked him for what happened last night.
Luo Baifan was straightforward and straightforward, and directly explained his intentions, Yu Haibo looked embarrassed, saying that it was unlikely that he wanted to restore the nine groups, but according to the two recent special cases, a special case team could be temporarily established.
Luo Baifan was overjoyed, and accepted it when he saw it, knowing that it was not easy for Yu Haibo to agree to him to set up a group. No matter what, it is mainly to solve the case, and the two will make a decision for a short time, without further ado, it will be formed tomorrow and officially established.
Ordered Luo Baifan to be the leader of the special case team, and the other personnel were assigned by him. In the end, he also made a request, wanting to transfer the dusty cold case in 1993 from the file management, Yu Haibo thought about it, and finally nodded.
Beihan No. 3 Middle School
Liu Jing notified everyone of the location of the event in advance in the class, and most of the students went, and Xu Junfang also went. Yuan Huaxing was unusual, he was not so excited, but he was a little nervous and eager in his heart, that was because the students of the second class of liberal arts also came, and Chen Xiao would also be among them.
The two classes got together to celebrate New Year's Day, this kind of opportunity is rare, and it is also the only event that Yuan Huaxing and Chen Xiao can participate in.
Yuan Huaxing was rummaging her clothes in the dormitory at noon, and when she had to put it aside, she wore a school uniform inside to get it done, but this time she was unprecedented, and she actually cared about her dress.
I chose one of the clothes I was satisfied with, but I felt silly when I put it on, so I took it off and put it on something else.
She usually doesn't pay attention to dressing, there are only a few clothes, try and try, try and try, try yourself out, and finally choose a denim shirt and put on a light gray sweater.
Her hair was static because of the fitting clothes, and she looked even more stupid, she covered her head with her hands, closed her eyes and shook her head with a wry smile, she thought she must be crazy.
In the afternoon, perhaps because of the end of the year, there is a little New Year's flavor, and even the campus atmosphere on New Year's Eve is different.
Chen Xiao has no sense of festivals, she has grown so big, she spends it alone, when she was a child, she had cold tea and light meals, looked at the moon at dusk, and later became an adult, she didn't even have to eat, and there was nothing to look forward to..., it was the same, she didn't feel the joy and happiness brought by the festival at all.
And now the only person who can make her heart touch is what she wants to hide and want to escape. She had to endure more loneliness and perhaps disappointment.
It's windy outside.
Chen Xiao sat quietly in his seat and looked out the window.
And Yuan Huaxing retracted her gaze from the back door, leaned against the wall of the corridor, and sighed softly, she felt that Chen Xiao had also cared about her before, but what happened now? They don't seem to be able to get along the same way they used to be.
A stone chamber
The slender fingers of the white-robed man were holding a thing, the thing was not big, it seemed to be wrapped with a layer of wax grease, he was thoughtful, he didn't know what he thought, and put it back in the iron box in front of him, and there were several small things with the same wax seal embedded in the box, and with a "snap", the white-robed man covered the iron box.
A woman in a black robe was like him, with a wide hat half-covering her face and making it difficult to see her face.
"Other shady people, we won't be able to find them for a while, what should we do?"
"It's hard to find, but it's even more rare, it only appears once in more than 1,000 years, and it can't be wasted on one ingredient." The white-robed man pondered for a moment, "It's really not good..., you can only take a risk once." ”
"You mean?"
"Yes, the big stiff eats the big stiff."
"Will this work?"
"Yes, if there is no suitable Yin Man to feed the stiff for the time being, it can only be like this, there has been a precedent before, but this kind of evolution may be much less powerful, and there is a certain risk that both will lose, no one can complete the evolution, but it will be wasted."
"Chen Xiao's uncle has just changed, and he is definitely not as fierce as the one in the foundation."
"Not necessarily, the one in the foundation was found in 1952, and his life is engraved around the iron coffin that sealed it.
He was a stumbler more than 1,000 years ago, a stupid stumbler who didn't want to drink blood and live. When he knew that he would eventually become a monster, he asked the master to use the iron hall to put it in, and the molten iron sealed the coffin, and there was a corpse suppression talisman inside.
I like to drink this stiff blood, do you know why? ”
The black-robed woman didn't know, and looked at the white-robed man without answering.
The white-robed man laughed, and his voice became a little higher, "Because his blood is very sweet!" I've had the best blood I've ever tasted. ”
The black-robed woman's heart swelled.
The white-robed man returned to normalcy.
"So before the Yin Man became a big stiff, the comparison between those who drank human blood and those who didn't drink blood is really impossible to predict. You find the other sinister people first, and then you have to talk about it. ”
"Yes!" The black-robed woman's voice was a little weak, and she turned around and walked out.
The white-robed man looked at her back, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he whispered, "Yin people, interesting." ”
