Chapter 60: Hand Bones
When I returned to Beijing, Lao Zhang took a taxi to take me home. He said a little self-reproachfully: "You see this trouble, I thought it was a beautiful difference, but I didn't expect to encounter such an unlucky thing." Blame me. ”
"Director Zhang, what are you talking about! I'm too late to thank you for your kindness! I blame myself, I owe it, and I carry it a little! ”
"Why don't we go find Master Wunian and take a look?" Lao Zhang proposed.
I thought about it, maybe the female ghost wouldn't have come all the way back from Thailand, right?
"I'll observe for a few days, and then I'll trouble people."
When I got home, when I opened the door, I saw Bai Xi curled up on the sofa, as if asleep.
When I saw her, I couldn't tell what it was like. I instinctively wanted to get close to her, but reason told me that it was better to stay away.
Hearing the movement, Bai Xi sat up. She looked very happy to see that I was back. But I noticed that her face was a little pale.
"You're back! Where have you been these days? The phone can't get through, I'm about to call the police! ”
I let out a cold "um".
In Phuket these days, I didn't change my calling card from abroad. I don't want to contact anyone, I just want to empty myself.
"Hey, where the hell have you been?" Seeing that I didn't speak, she asked again.
"Thailand." There is no emotion in my voice. As he spoke, he took his luggage back to his room.
"Peace, you're very abnormal today! What's wrong? She asked, blinking at me with big eyes.
I stopped.
Actually, I didn't want to find out, but I was stuffy in my heart, and it was really uncomfortable.
After a pause, I sighed, feeling physically and mentally exhausted.
"I ask you, did you approach me to spy on me and then find an opportunity to kill me?"
Bai Xi's little face suddenly became a little stiff, and she was "fluttering" for a long time.
"What did you say? Or 'jail' first and then kill? ”
"I'm not kidding you. Answer the question. "My tone was cold.
"What do you hear? Did someone tell you something? She asked rhetorically.
"Nobody, I figured it out myself. Is it only by killing me can we completely prevent Yinggou from coming back to life? ”
Bai Xi's expression immediately changed subtly, she pursed her lips, and was speechless for a while.
"You're half right." After a long time, she spoke slowly.
"I'm here to spy on you, and if I find anything wrong with you, I'll ...... But I've changed my mind. Like I told you, I'm not going to let him wake up. ”
"Why did you change your mind? Would you rather spend more than 20 years of mental energy in vain? I asked, squinting at me.
Bai Xi stared at my face for a moment and lowered his head.
"You're a good man, I can't bear to kill you." She whispered.
Could this be true? Or is it another sensational drama she played?
I didn't speak. She immediately changed the subject: "I went out this time and ran into trouble......"
As she spoke, she unbuttoned the collar of her shirt in two.
I'm going, what is this for?
My heart pounded. If you dare to use beauty tricks, then buddy won't be able to take care of so much, I will definitely fall for it! Look at how dare I!
However, when Bai Xi exposed Bai Nen's shoulders, I couldn't help but be surprised-
Her left shoulder was crookedly wrapped in gauze, and blood was oozing from it. Against the backdrop of fair skin, it is even more shocking.
"This ...... How did you get it? "My heart softened all at once.
"I was attacked ......"
Bai Xi said that when she went to the Ziyun Temple in Qingcheng Mountain, she found that the master bedroom of the old temple was sick in bed and dying.
When I asked, I found out that one night a few days ago, the old master took two apprentices to inspect the altar that sealed the Yinggou Yuan God. Suddenly, a black-flowered python sprang out and attacked the three masters and apprentices.
By the time the others heard the shouts and rushed to them, the three of them were already unconscious. The altar that sealed the primordial god was smashed to pieces, and half of the primordial god of Yinggou was gone.
The old viewer was injured and rushed to attack his heart, and he couldn't afford to get sick.
That night, Bai Xi stayed in the wing room of Ziyunguan. In the middle of the night, I heard a noise, and a man entered the room. Wearing a wide robe, he can't see his face with a mask.
The man swung his knife at Bai Xi on the bed and slashed.
Fortunately, she was on guard, so she was not hacked to death. She started with the person who came, and the person was so good at kung fu that Rao is Bai Xi was a little overwhelmed. One didn't pay attention, and he was stabbed.
Hearing the sound, a group of Taoist priests rushed to surround the man, and Bai Xi strangled his neck with a soft whip, making him unable to move.
The eldest disciple of the Guan Lord took off the mask on his face, and everyone was horrified to see that there were no facial features on that person's face at all!
When everyone was panicked and surprised, they looked at the person again, and their bodies shook and fell to the ground. Then it burst into flames, crackling, and in a few moments it was reduced to a pile of ashes.
It was only after dawn that the eldest disciple dared to tell the master about it.
The old watchman called Bai Xi over, and while panting heavily, he told her that the situation was serious.
The Demon King's primordial god was robbed, and now someone wants to assassinate her. It seems that not only is Yinggou ready to make a move, but his followers are also making a comeback.
The old watcher said that it was a very strong and dark force, and they seemed to have smelled the breath of Yinggou's revival.
After saying this, the master ordered the apprentice to take out a brocade box from the cabinet. Ping retreated, opened the box, took out an item and handed it to Bai Xi.
With that, Bai Xi took out something wrapped in golden satin from his pocket and handed it to me.
"Look, this is it."
I carefully took it, opened it, and saw that it was a roll of bamboo slips. It seems that the years are not short, and it is definitely at the level of unearthed cultural relics.
"It's ......"
As I spoke, I gently opened it, and saw all kinds of zigzag symbols drawn on it, which seemed to be some kind of ancient script, and I couldn't read it at all.
"This is passed down with the sealed Yuan Shen, and it is a record of the battle between Yinggou and the Yellow Emperor by later generations."
I slowly opened the bamboo slips in my hand and found that there was a picture drawn on the last two pieces of bamboo.
The text is indecipherable, but the picture is clear at a glance - it is a human hand bone.
The skeletal hand's thumb is broken off from the other four fingers, and the three joints of the thumb are also separated.
"What does that mean?" I'm confused.
"The old man said that on the battlefield that year, one of Yinggou's hands was cut by the Xuanyuan Sword, and the whole palm fell off. After the end of the war, when Yinggou's followers came to collect the body, they couldn't find that hand. ”
"The one drawn on this is the severed hand of Yinggou?"
Bai Xi nodded.
"What did Master give you this?" I asked, puzzled.
Bai Xi looked at me and sighed.
"The theft of the other half of Yinggou's primordial spirit means that the forces of his followers' faction have begun to act. If the situation gets out of control, there is one last resort to eliminate Yinggou as a last resort. ”
I pricked up my ears and listened, as long as it didn't kill me.
