Baishan people are like ghost buildings

The dead did not go, and the living came

At noon, the sun is blazing.

The breeze blew and blew away the gloom in people's hearts.

It was a great sunny day.

The sun on a sunny day is always pleasant.

The laughter of the villagers and the frolicking of children can be heard everywhere in the village.

Zhang Chengyong and I looked at each other and smiled, laughter is always contagious, and so is the happy atmosphere.

What's more, what makes the two of us happy is not only such a good weather, but also Xiaomei's condition that has gradually improved.

When Zhang Chengyong and I rushed to the Dixian Temple, Xiaomei had already woken up, and she was eating porridge at this time.

Naturally, the porridge was brought to her by Grandma Li.

However, after she handed the porridge to Xiaomei, she sat back on the futon and looked at the horse-faced Wong Tai Sin statue stupidly.

No matter how much Zhang Chengyong and I thanked her, she really seemed to be deaf, and there was no reaction at all.

The donkey cart was rented by Zhang Chengyong and I in the village in the morning from the horse-faced man.

After thanking Grandma Li again and again to no avail, the two of us took Xiaomei to the donkey cart and rushed all the way back to Jingyu County.

This village is actually not too far from Jingyu County, and the distance is about forty or fifty kilometers at most.

However, the mountain road was rugged, and a few of us walked for nearly seven hours for the distance of about forty or fifty kilometers.

It wasn't until about eight o'clock in the evening that we returned to the door of the Baishan family.

The people of Baishan are still the same as when we left.

There were no lights, no people, no sound, it was like a ghost building, like a tomb.

"How many...... How many masters...... Are you sure we're not going wrong? This place doesn't look like a human being, does it? The horse-faced man looked at the lifeless little second floor of the Baishan family and asked tremblingly.

"Haha! That's right! I smiled and took out the cash that Ice had left for me from my pocket, counted out two thousand dollars from it and handed it to the horse-faced man, and then said, "This friend of ours has such a temper and doesn't like to light lamps!" ”

"Haha! This friend of yours is weird! The horse-faced man smiled reluctantly, he took the money and counted it seriously, and then grinned and said, "Thank you for this Liu Ye." Next time, if there is such a good thing, don't forget to greet me, little brother, I will be on call. ”

This horse-faced man is much older than me, but he always calls me a master, a little brother calls himself, and that flattering image makes me look at it and listen to it very awkwardly.

I didn't answer his words, just nodded perfunctorily: "Hmm! No problem! ”

"Then little brother, I'll go first! See you back, two masters! With that, he stuffed the two thousand pieces into the pocket of his jacket, and then raised the whip in his hand, and disappeared like a smoke.

"This old boy is really fast!" Zhang Chengyong scolded in the direction where the horse-faced man disappeared, then turned around and strode into the Baishan family.

However, Zhang Chengyong had just stepped into the door of the two-story building of the Baishan family with one leg, and suddenly stopped moving.

He stood motionless, as if someone had a gun against his forehead.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Zhang Chengyong behaving like this, I helped Xiaomei to the bench at the door, and hurriedly ran over to ask.

"Tianyi, you ...... You see! Zhang Chengyong said with wide eyes.

I looked in the direction of Zhang Chengyong's finger, and instead of a gun pointed at his forehead, I saw a standing person.

A dead man.

And this dead man is the owner of this Baishan family, Bai Zixiong.

I saw Bai Zixiong standing in place in a daze, his eyes were wide open, as if he didn't believe that the person who killed him would attack him until the moment he lost his breath.

I saw that Bai Zixiong could hardly find a trace of scar on his whole body, except for a thin scar on his throat.

It was from that thin wound that blood flowed through his chest and onto the ground, and it had not dried up, and it seemed that he should have been dead for not too long.

"What a quick knife! What a quick shot! Zhang Chengyong looked at it for a long time and said leisurely. It seems that Bai Zixiong should have lost his breath in an instant, and his muscles were still in a very tense state, so he didn't fall down. ”

"Yes! This knife was not shot quickly, and it was very accurate. I sighed and said, "Although Bai Zixiong has retired from the rivers and lakes for many years, there are really not many people in this world who can kill him in an instant!" ”

"Not much, indeed! However, there seem to be two of them! "At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly came from behind us.

But this voice is not Xiaomei.

This is a woman in a pink Japanese kimono.

She was tall and thin, with a thick white foundation, pink blush, and lipstick the size of a cherry on her face, reminiscent of the movie Memoirs of a Geisha. Although this woman's appearance is not very beautiful, her eyes are very charming.

When Zhang Chengyong and I turned around, she was looking at the two of us with those charming eyes.

She was laughing, but it was fake.

"Two? Those two? I said with a smile.

"Of course it won't be me, a weak woman!" The woman said with a smile.

"Haha! Not necessarily, sometimes women kill people more viciously than men. I said, staring at her.

"Hah!" The woman pursed her lips and smiled: "Mr. Liu is really good at laughing, do you think a woman like me can afford to hold a knife?" ”

"You know me?" I asked curiously.

"I don't just know you, I know him!" The woman said and glanced at Zhang Chengyong with those charming eyes. Although her tone of voice was plain, her eyes were full of electricity.

Zhang Chengyong was so seen by her, he quickly coughed twice and said, "Ahem!" We've seen it? ”

"We haven't seen it! Of course, you don't know me! The woman smiled even more happily when she saw Zhang Chengyong's reaction. She loved to laugh and seemed to like the man's reaction when he saw her eyes.

"We haven't seen you, but you know us?" I asked.

"Yes! Not only do I know you, but I know you very well! The woman said.

"Oh?" I wondered. "How do you understand it?"

"Liu Tianyi, you were born in August 1987, Leo. Your parents died when you were a child, you were raised by your grandfather, and you studied under the master of thousands of methods in the capital, and you are a rare talent in the eight Buddhas for thousands of years. You've learned in three years what others haven't learned in thirty years. And the young man became famous, arrogant, never joined forces with others, ten years ago, you stole the five treasures of the peerless eight treasures of the capital with the power of one person, this incident can be said to have shocked the entire lower eight gates, in the lower eight doors you can be regarded as famous. However, although you are a thief, you are not a thief, and every time you steal a treasure, you must leave a note, saying that it will be returned to Zhao within five days, and you have never broken your word. Later, in order to repay the teacher's kindness, he made an exception and teamed up with his brother to steal the twelve white jade peaches of the Chen family in the capital, but he never thought that you would be betrayed. The woman told me as if she were memorizing a text, "Am I right?" ”

"Hey, I said Tianyi, I just knew that you were very good at stealing things, my God, I didn't expect you to be so powerful." Zhang Chengyong's eyes widened and he asked in a low voice.

"Can you shut up?" I glared at Zhang Chengyong.

"Black camel Zhang Chengyong ......" After the woman finished talking about me, she turned her head and looked at Zhang Chengyong with a smile.

"Oh? You know about me? Zhang Chengyong was surprised.

"Although your ancestors are the top people in the lower eight gates, you have never set foot in the lower eight gates. You were born in 1986, your birthday is unknown, your constellation is unknown, your hobbies are unknown, when you were 28 years old, you opened a pawn shop called Zhaocai Dang in Shenyang Bagua Street, although it is a pawnshop on the surface, but in private you are doing some smuggling and anti-water business, but even so, your voice has not been good, and then closed down because of the lack of business. The woman sighed as if she were sorry.

"Reliable! That's true! Zhang Chengyong nodded with a smile.

"But few people know about your experience before you turned 28." The woman said lightly.

"If you can even find out what I was doing in those days, I'm really convinced." Zhang Chengyong said with a grin.

"I haven't found all of them, but I know a little bit about them." The woman said.

"Oh? Tell me about it? Zhang Chengyong asked curiously.

"Although you have never told anyone about your previous military service in Hoh Xil, I do know a little." The woman smiled and continued: "The unit you were in back then should be subordinate to the Qinghai Provincial Armed Police Corps, is there something wrong with what I said?" ”

Zhang Chengyong didn't speak, he just looked at this woman intently.

Seeing that Zhang Chengyong did not speak, the woman smiled and continued: "There was a group of poachers in Hoh Xil back then, they were very numerous and very well-equipped, and they called themselves black sheep. These people are very fierce and cunning, and the local government has been tracking them down for many years but they have never been able to find their nest. However, one day, a herdsman was hiding from a strong sandstorm when he suddenly found that they were all dead in a cave. According to the herdsman's description, all of them had been pierced through the heart with sharp weapons, almost all of them were fatal with a single blow, and the technique was clean, fast and accurate. In addition, after the man killed the men, he left a black camel on the wall of the cave. ”

"What does this have to do with me?" Zhang Chengyong looked at the woman and said coldly.

At this time, the original smile on his face was gone, replaced by a cold killing intent.

"Haha! Although I am not sure if this matter has anything to do with you, but ......" The woman didn't seem to notice the killing intent in Zhang Chengyong's eyes at all, and still smiled and said: "However, I know that you suddenly disappeared after one more thing." It wasn't until three years later that you returned to your hometown of Shenyang. Is that right? ”

"You know the two of us so clearly, what the hell are you trying to do?" Zhang Chengyong asked coldly.

"Haha! Don't be nervous, I don't mean anything. The woman said with a smile.

"No malice?" I looked at her and said.

"Yes! Not even the slightest bit of malice. I just wanted to invite the two of you, oh yes, and of course the girl at the door, to dinner. The woman said with a smile.
