Chapter 102: It's all over
Many people are picking up Xu Yijin's life experience, but they still have nothing.
There are a few people who found out that he was in my father's company, and even found out what position he held.
I can't help but be a little scared, these people are even more capable of digging into the bottom of the matter than I thought.
"The reason why those Taoist priests pushed Xu Yijin to the forefront is to let people find out where he is now, right?" I guessed.
Liu Shichen nodded thoughtfully, "I think so too, do you know where Xu Yijin is?" ”
I stared at him for a moment, but didn't answer immediately.
For Liu Shichen, Xu Yijin's presence should make him particularly responsive. What if he communicated with those Taoist priests in order to get words out of my mouth?
But this thought did not last long, and I replied honestly: "He is in the underworld, and there should be nothing wrong for the time being." ”
I still choose to believe in him.
"Zhou Zhou, Xu Yijin is not a character who hides when something happens." Liu Shichen looked at me with heavy eyes, "For those Taoist priests, he will definitely make a move." As for why he went to Hades, I think he was probably waiting for an opportunity. ”
I listened in the clouds.
It only took me a few minutes to react.
Xu Yijin went to the underworld not to hide at all, but to accumulate strength to nourish his spirits. When his condition returns to the best, those Taoist priests may not be able to lower him.
Sure enough, in the evening, there was a comment in this post, which was pinned to the first one.
In the comments, someone released Xu Yijin's movements, and clearly wrote an address, which I recognize, which is Xu Yijin's cemetery.
Of course, those ordinary students will not be bored enough to look for it, and even if they do, the doorman will definitely not let them in.
If I'm not mistaken, nine times out of ten, this comment is intended to lead the group of Taoist priests.
Now it's just a matter of whether they can take the bait.
Liu Shichen, who was also staying in my apartment tonight, saw this comment and told me what he thought.
And our thoughts coincide.
After reading the post, I exited the forum, and a phone call came in from my phone screen.
The phone number is very strange, the display is not clear, I thought it was an advertisement, so I hung up.
The next second, the call came in again.
I didn't hang up again, and when I connected it, I put my phone to my ear.
No one spoke on the other end of the line, only faint breathing.
"Who?"
I waited for about two minutes, but there was no answer.
While wondering if it was a wrong call, he was about to hang up the phone.
At this moment, Xu Yijin's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Zhou Zhou, it's me." ”
I held my breath and stared, "Why did you call all of a sudden?" Is something wrong? ”
"The Taoist priests will go to the cemetery tomorrow night at the latest, and before dark tomorrow, you go to Xu Fengling and tell him about it." Xu Yijin said.
Even though I knew he couldn't see it, I kept nodding my head on the phone, "And then?" After telling Xu Fengling about this, what should I do? ”
"He'll arrange the rest."
"Will you be okay?"
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the line.
Then, Xu Yijin's chuckling voice came, "Don't worry, the person who can destroy me hasn't been born yet." ”
After I hung up, my mind was a little messy.
I don't have Xu Fengling's contact information, if I want to find him, I can only go to the original rental house to find him, but what if he is not there?
As soon as dawn the next day, I got up.
Liu Shichen got up later than me, and when he saw that I had already made breakfast, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Why do you get up so early and don't sleep much?" ”
"Can you please ask me for a leave of absence today?"
"Leave? For Xu Yijin's business? Seeing that I was silent, he nodded knowingly, "I'm with you?" ”
"Okay." I didn't think about it that much.
He called the school, although the school was not very happy, after all, I asked for leave too often, but for the sake of the Liu family's face, I still didn't dare to say more and agreed.
After breakfast, he drove me to the rented place.
The two of them took the elevator upstairs, and the moment the elevator door opened, I only felt that there was a cold wind blowing in my face, and the expression on the face of the cold person could not be controlled.
Liu Shichen frowned, took off his coat and put it on for me.
I thanked him, walked straight to Xu Fengling's door, and rang the doorbell.
The door opened quickly, and there was no one behind the door, and I don't know who opened the door.
It was pitch black inside the house, and if you didn't walk in, you just stood in the doorway, and you couldn't see anything clearly.
"Xu Fengling?" I call softly.
In the back room, a saw-like voice sounded: "Come in." ”
Except for Xu Fengling, there is probably no one in the world who has such a bad voice.
Liu Shichen's brows furrowed a little deeper.
He took me by the hand and walked ahead of me.
It was dark in the room, probably without windows, or maybe there were, but the windows were sealed.
There seemed to be laughter on both sides of the hallway, or someone could be heard, but what was being said could not be heard.
My body trembled, Liu Shichen squeezed my palm tightly, and said, "It's okay, don't be afraid." ”
At the end, a door suddenly opened.
The room behind the door was quite bright, and Liu Shichen and I exchanged a look, and walked in one after the other.
This is probably the only place in the house with a window.
A large amount of sunlight poured in, shining on the floor and warming it.
There was a man sitting in front of a floor-to-ceiling window.
He wore a black cap, his mouth and nose were also covered by a black mask, and only a pair of black eyes could be seen.
I was startled for a moment, and then I shouted, "It's you?" ”
The man who kept delivering me couriers.
The corpse of a dead cat, the severed finger.
I haven't seen anyone who gave me eyeballs, but nine times out of ten he's the same.
"Finally recognized?" The man in front of the floor-to-ceiling window seemed to be laughing, and the crow-like sound was particularly harsh.
"Are you Xu Fengling?"
The man said faintly, "Hmm." ”
Liu Shichen was also paying attention to the man in front of him.
I suddenly had the feeling of seeing the light of day through the clouds, and I took two steps forward towards him, "Why are you sending me those things?" ”
"Because, you want to regain my place in your heart." He was still smiling, and though he couldn't see his mouth, he could see one of his eyes crooked.
Just like in a dream, the smile seeps into people's hearts, treacherous and terrifying.
"Whether it's love or hate, or fear, when you were five years old, the only person who affected you the most was me. It's a pity that you don't remember that time now. So this is the only way to make you relive the feeling of the past. Xu Fengling laughed obediently.
His voice was already ugly, but this smile made it even more secretive.
I pursed my lips and said, "Why didn't you send it again?" ”
"It was discovered by Xu Yijin." He didn't know what he was seeing through the window, and he never looked away.
When I mentioned Xu Yijin, I remembered the right thing.
After thinking about it for a while, I said to him, "Xu Yijin said that those Taoist priests will go to the cemetery tonight at the latest. That's what I said.
Xu Fengling let out an "oh".
"He said you'll arrange the rest of the matter."
"Hmm."
The man in front of him leaned against the window and basked in the sun unhurriedly, as if he didn't take this matter at ease.
I couldn't help but ask, "Shouldn't you be doing something now?" ”
"Do what?"
I was speechless.
Liu Shichen squeezed my hand and gave me a look.
Then, he glanced at Xu Fengling again and led me out of the room.
After taking me into the elevator, Liu Shichen said, "Now I can only trust him." He is the person selected by Xu Yijin. ”
I kept my head down and didn't speak.
He didn't mind, looking at me from the elevator's mirror, "Zhou Zhou." ”
"Huh?"
"Are you in love with Xu Yijin?"
My heart skipped a beat, and I looked at the man next to me.
My feelings for Liu Shichen are still there, but my feelings for Xu Yijin seem to have changed.
Can a person fall in love with two men at the same time?
For me, this answer should be unsolvable.
"I don't know."
I shook my head honestly.
Liu Shichen smiled casually and said, "Do you want to go to the amusement park?" ”
"I still have to go to the cemetery in the evening, even if I can't help, I have to go."
"It's still early, I'll send you there before dark?"
To be honest, I'm not in the mood to play right now.
But if you take leave from school, you can't go to the cemetery right now.
I thought for a while and nodded at Liu Shichen.
The latter smiled.
……
When I arrived at the amusement park, Liu Shichen took me to the bottom of the roller coaster and asked, "Zhou Zhou, do you dare to play?" ”
If it had been before, I would never have imagined that he would come to an amusement park or something.
Probably in my impression, he has always been a bit of a superior. No matter what he did to me, at least in front of outsiders, he didn't eat fireworks.
"Do you want to play this?" I looked up at the roller coaster, which was more than a dozen people tall.
Liu Shichen nodded.
After getting on the roller coaster and the staff taking protective measures for us, I suddenly regretted sitting on it.
The roller coaster slowly went up, and when it passed the turning point and was about to rush down, Liu Shichen held the hand I leaned towards him.
I turned my head to look at him, but before I could see the look on his face, my whole body suddenly fell down with the roller coaster, and I even missed half a beat of breath.
I even screamed.
In addition to the loud sound of the wind, I could only vaguely hear the screams of others.
After coming off the roller coaster, I had some cramps in my calves.
"Are you alright?" Liu Shichen saw that I was a little unsteady on my feet, so he took me into his arms, went to the store to buy a bottle of water, opened the lid and handed it to me.
After two sips of water, I completely pulled myself out of the thrill just now.
Next, Liu Shichen didn't take me to play this kind of exciting project.
He took me to a few small projects before taking me to the haunted house and asking me, "Do you want to play?" ”
Every time he passed a ride, he would ask.
The haunted house looked rather eerie from the outside, with blood stains on the door and flickering lights.
I nodded, and he led me and followed the tourists inside.
In addition to the atmosphere in the haunted house, there is nothing scary about it, and those so-called "ghosts" are props, which are very different from the real ones, and they are a drop in the bucket in comparison.
So Liu Shichen and I weren't so frightened.
On the contrary, the surrounding tourists are exclaimed from time to time.
Smoothly walked out of the haunted house, and the large and small projects were almost experienced.
Liu Shichen shook his head at the big building not far away, "Zhou Zhou, do you want to ride the Ferris wheel?" ”
We had been playing at the amusement park all afternoon and it was not far from getting dark.
It is estimated that after sitting on the Ferris wheel, the time will be almost evening.
I stood there and stared at the behemoth for a moment, and said, "When we're done, we're leaving." ”
Liu Shichen cannot be denied.
The two of us walked side by side under the Ferris wheel, and the staff opened the door of the private room for us and guided us inside.
Then, the door was slowly shut.
The speed of the Ferris wheel is very slow, this kind of project is about to look at the scenery, the two of us sit on the same side, in the small private room, the atmosphere is inexplicably a little awkward.
"Don't worry too much about Xu Yijin, if he can't even deal with these Taoist priests, he will live in vain for so long." Liu Shichen said lightly.
I turned my head to look at him, "Do you know Xu Yijin's age?" ”
"I don't know." He furrowed his brow slightly, and continued, "But when I was young, I saw him. ”
Liu Shichen said: "When I was nine years old, a fire broke out in my home, and my parents were not at home, and seven or eight servants in the family were burned to death. I was small and hid in a water tank, not knowing which one came first, death or rescue. ”
"When Xu Yijin took me out of the water tank, I was like meeting a savior, and told him that as long as he could take me out safe and sound, I could give him anything. He looked at me thoughtfully.
I paused, "And then?" ”
"Xu Yijin put the coat on my body, and I was blinded, and I didn't even know how I got out. He sent me to safety, and the man left. Then, the firefighters and my parents got the news and rushed over. ”
Liu Shichen pursed his lips, "When I saw Xu Yijin appear next to you, I wasn't sure if he was the one who saved me in the first place." An ordinary person has not changed at all in more than ten years, which is unrealistic. ”
"And when did you know for sure?" I asked.
"When I checked his details, his identity information looked mediocre and flawless. But there is no flaw, it is the biggest flaw. Liu Shichen recounted to me: "As long as you check his set of identity information carefully, you will definitely be able to find out that something is wrong." My people can't find any traces of his life when he was a child, and even the information of his parents and even relatives of the previous generations has problems. I think maybe Xu Yijin didn't want to hide it from the beginning. ”
I probably understood, "Are you sure based on your identity alone?" ”
His eyes sank a little, as if he was looking at the scenery outside through a glass panel, "Later, I asked him in person, and he didn't deny it." ”
The atmosphere in the private room was silent for a while.
As the Ferris wheel slowly turned, our private room was about to rise to the top.
I have mixed feelings in my heart, and it is a little complicated, but I didn't expect that there would be such a period between Liu Shichen and Xu Yijin.
No wonder from the very beginning, Liu Shichen showed vigilance against Xu Yijin.
Just imagine, when a person I met when I was nine years old, he appeared in front of him unchanged after more than ten years, and if he changed anyone, he should have some concerns and doubts.
Liu Shichen didn't discuss this matter for too long, and when the Ferris wheel rose to the top accurately, he suddenly grabbed my body, leaned down and held my lips.
My pupils contracted suddenly.
As soon as he wanted to reach out and push away, his two hands were shackled by the man.
His snort wheezed above his head, "During this time, I have figured it out, as long as it is you, what does it matter if you are married?" ”
"Are you crazy?"
"I'm sober."
It wasn't until the Ferris wheel finished one round and regrouped to the bottom that he couldn't stop laughing.
When the staff opened the door, he gave me a haircut and led me out.
By this time, the sun was about to set.
It was dark, and in less than half an hour, it should be dark.
Liu Shichen drove with me to Xu Yijin's cemetery, he didn't know the way, and I showed him the way from memory along the way.
Sometimes, he would occasionally admit that he was wrong, and when he found that it was wrong, he would go back and walk again.
By the time we got to the cemetery, it was already dark.
I didn't let him drive into the cemetery, I just asked him to pick a far place to stop, and we walked the remaining hundreds of meters.
I'm afraid that if the movement is too big, it will cause trouble to Xu Yijin's plan.
The cemetery is the same as the last time I visited, quiet and quiet, with no street lights.
I stepped forward and knocked on the door of the guard's room, but this time, the old man who was watching the cemetery was nowhere to be seen.
I tried pushing the door and found that the door to the guard's room was unlocked.
After walking in, I found that the decoration inside was very simple, and a black and white posthumous photo hung on the wall.
The posthumous photo shows the kind face of the doorman.
I chuckled in my heart, and walked slowly over step by step, and even saw the lower right corner of the posthumous photo, clearly writing the time of death.
February 27, 1997.
In other words, this uncle has been dead for nearly twenty-three years.
What I saw before was definitely not a living person.
I didn't stay long, and when I came out of the guard room, I couldn't help but shiver and my face was a little pale.
"What's wrong?" Liu Shichen came up and asked.
"There's no one in the guard's room, let's go straight in."
He glanced towards the door closed in the guard's room and reached out to take my hand in the palm of his hand.
The cemetery was very deserted and quiet, and I looked around roughly and did not find a Taoist priest.
Just as I wanted to walk into the cemetery, Liu Shichen grabbed me and looked at the ground with his eyes down, "Zhou Zhou, don't move." ”
I followed his gaze and looked down.
Only then did I find that there were a few red ropes at my feet, which were very thin and I couldn't find them if I didn't look carefully.
These red ropes do not see the edges and look very long.
I crouched down and noticed that there was blood on the red string, and it smelled fishy.
Liu Shichen said: "If I guess correctly, this is black dog blood. These red ropes are the formation of Taoist priests. ”
"So these Taoist priests are already here?" It was dark in the cemetery, and you couldn't see much from the outside.
He paused for a moment and asked, "Zhou Zhou, is there any small door here that no one else can find?" When we enter through the gate in a grand manner, we will definitely be startled. ”
"I haven't been here a few times, so I don't know."
All of a sudden, the two of them were in a dilemma, and they were at the door of the guard's room.
As the night fell, the weather, which was still a little hot and dry, suddenly blew a strong wind, not cold, but I felt faintly uneasy.
A thunderbolt slammed into the air, and there was a loud and clear sound in my ears.
At that moment, Liu Shichen's faces and I were pale from the thunder.
"Why did it thunder all of a sudden?" I looked up at the sky, "Is it going to rain today?" ”
Liu Shichen also shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
I regained my gaze and looked into the cemetery.
It was still pitch black, and I couldn't see anything but some large buildings.
"Zhou Zhou, did you hear anything?" Liu Shichen squeezed my palm.
"What sound?" I really didn't hear anything other than the rubbing of the leaves on the uncle's top and the swishing of the wind.
He was silent for a moment, "I guess I misheard. ”
After a while, he asked again, "Can't you really hear me?" ”
I was stunned for a moment, but I still couldn't hear anything, so I asked, "What did you hear?" ”
"It looks like there's a lot of people screaming."
"Called? What is it called? ”
"I'm screaming." Liu Shichen's brows furrowed, "Sounds a little infiltrating." ”
I held my breath and pricked up my ears, but I still couldn't find anything, I couldn't hear anything.
I was about to ask him if he was hallucinating, but I saw another thunder from the sky.
This thunderbolt struck the guard room and smashed the roof of the guard room to pieces.
Liu Shichen and I were standing not far from the guard's room, and a lot of wood chips were splashed on us.
Maybe it's because of the special material of the roof of the guard's room, but it didn't catch fire when it was hit by lightning like this.
It's just that the scene is so spectacular, I put it in my throat, I can't go up or down, and I don't know if I'm scared.
"I always feel uneasy in my heart, you are waiting for me here, I will go in and have a look." I said to Liu Shichen.
He followed my steps, "I'll go in with you." ”
I didn't refuse.
There was a fishy smell in the cemetery, and I shrugged my nose and began to breathe through my mouth.
The two large glass jars in front of the tomb were shattered, and the two Kuman Thong inside did not know where they had gone.
It was just faintly enough, and I saw a man sitting on the tomb, wearing a white shirt, with a few touches of red dyed on the shirt, which looked extremely eye-catching.
His hair fell haphazardly on the corners of his forehead, and because of his white skin, he could see clearly in the dark night.
I was about to take a step forward, when suddenly something stepped under my feet, I quickly moved my foot away, looked down and saw a man lying on the ground.
The man was wearing a light-colored robe, what color it was, it was too dark, I couldn't see clearly.
His body was on his side, his chest was still slightly undulating, and there was a large amount of blood on his clothes and head, I was startled, and quickly squatted down to check.
Only then did I find out that the man on the ground was Mr. Zhang.
Mr. Zhang seemed to be holding a breath, his eyes squinting blankly, and when he saw me squatting down, he immediately used his strength to grab my wrist.
He wasn't very strong and a little weak, but I was still startled.
Fortunately, Liu Shichen was by his side and pulled me and him apart.
Mr. Zhang's hand did not immediately drop, but pointed at me tightly, as if his eyes could be popped out at any time.
He didn't last more than half an hour before his hand suddenly fell heavily to the ground and his eyes slammed.
Liu Shichen gave him a rough examination, and after a few seconds, he said to me: "Zhou Zhou, this man is dead." ”
I took a few steps back in disbelief, and suddenly I stumbled over something on my foot, and I staggered a few steps to my feet.
Looking along the ground, I found that it was not only Mr. Zhang, but also corpses everywhere in this cemetery.
All of them are wearing Taoist robes.
Liu Shichen came over to support me.
I don't know how long I stood there, but the bright moon that was hidden by the clouds gradually emerged.
The moonlight appeared, and the whole cemetery was much brighter than before.
Xu Yijin, who was sitting on the tomb, noticed me, and he looked at me for a long time, as if he had confirmed something, and then he smiled at me.
He was covered in blood from head to toe, covered in blood and veins, but still, his smile was enough to captivate the city.
Behind him, a group of people who were pressed by the black.
If you look closely, you don't seem to be alive.
Xu Fengling was among them, and he was no better, and he was colored.
"Zhou Zhou, it's over." Xu Yijin staggered over and stood still in front of me, as if he had exhausted his strength, and his whole body leaned against me.
Although he looked so big, his body was very light, almost weightless.
"There will be no more Immortal Mountain in the future. I won't have any more worries. Xu Yijin said.
Liu Shichen rarely faced him with a slight smile on his face, "Congratulations." ”
The Immortal Mountain, which has always been like a legend, has been lost in this cemetery.
Except for Meng Minghao, there were almost no surviving Taoist priests in Changsheng Mountain.
