Chapter 50: The Vanishing Light
Don't force me to be happy.
……
Cha Duoyu is not a person who likes to show sadness in front of others, she is hard-hearted, but after listening to Yingying's fairy tales, she really wants to say: "I hope there will be." ”
She also wanted to tell the other party: "This disease cannot be cured in the whole world, and you may die soon." ”
A good boy has the right to know the truth, and Cha Duoyu doesn't want Ying Ying to live in deception until she dies, even if it's a white lie.
Because, one day, when you go to another world, if you can't even tell how you died, you will be laughed at by other ghosts.
However, it would be cruel to say this, Yingying's mother is still uncertain, and Cha Duoyu is ready to think of a gentler way.
Dead and silent village.
No one came out to entertain the guests, and even if everyone saw Cha Duoyu and his party, their eyes were still empty and obscure, like the walking dead.
Yingying's family lives in the middle of the village, with two small bungalows and a loess kang in the inner room.
The rain outside began to fall heavily.
Eleven people huddled into the room, with a small dim light bulb overhead. There is only one bed, which was originally meant to be for the girls to lie down and rest, but Cha Duoyu is not used to crowding with strangers, and Lin Ruohan is not used to it. In the end, Situ Jasmine, Song Mingyue and Ying Ying sat on the bed, and the others casually found a place in the house and waited for dawn!
It was twelve o'clock in the evening.
After a whole day of bumps, even Zhai Long couldn't bear it, and soon closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Situ Jasmine didn't sleep all the time, kept her eyes open, and waited until everyone was almost asleep, then gently pushed Yingying, and took out a flower from her trouser pocket, a blood-red flower: "Yingying, have you ever seen this kind of flower?" In your mountains. ”
Rubbing her sleepy eyes, Ying Ying looked at Situ Jasmine's hand, then looked at the flower in her hand, and suddenly cried loudly.
The cry woke everyone up in an instant.
Then Situ Jasmine's cheeks turned red and she didn't know what to do.
Cha Duoyu immediately hugged Ying Ying into her arms, and then stared at Situ Jasmine with cold eyes, not saying a word, but full of hostility, she had already seen the flowers that Situ Jasmine had hidden.
Flowers of this world.
Ancient temple begonia.
If it is fake, you will never be mistaken.
Ying Ying cried very sadly, her cry revealed horror, her body began to tremble constantly, everyone tried to coax it, but as long as she looked at Situ Jasmine, the little girl was like seeing a monster, and the whole person began to tremble with fright.
Cha Duoyu appeased for a long time, and then gradually improved, everyone was very upset, and they didn't care about this trivial thing at all.
Situ Jasmine looked at Cha Duoyu, and Cha Duoyu looked at Situ Jasmine, and the two began to make eye contact.
Cha Duoyu: "Such a big person actually intimidates a child, do you still want to be shameless?" ”
Situ Jasmine: "You don't understand, and I didn't intimidate. ”
Cha Duoyu: "Isn't it that flower?" You know it, and I know it. ”
Jasmine: "Impossible. ”
Cha Duoyu's fingers wrote a few words in the air, Situ Jasmine's face turned pale, and then pointed outside the house, Cha Duoyu nodded.
The rain outside the house was very heavy, and it was slightly better under the eaves, and the smoke and rain in Xia Tan Village at night were hazy, and a few wails could be heard from time to time in the silence.
Situ Jasmine should have suffered from the wind cold, and as soon as the cold wind blew, she began to cough incessantly: "Ahem, how do you know about the ancient temple begonia?" ”
Cha Duoyu's face was cold and silent, she didn't want to talk nonsense.
Situ Jasmine waited for a while, then frowned and continued: "This flower shouldn't bloom here, it's unscientific and unreasonable. ”
Cha Duoyu continued to watch Situ Jasmine's performance.
Situ Jasmine's face turned pale: "Since you know the ancient temple begonia, then we should unite and find out what is going on." ”
Cha Duoyu smiled for a moment, and then said, "Aren't you a biologist?" Is this still being studied? ”
Situ Jasmine nodded: "Living things include plants, and plants are also living and part of nature. ”
Cha Duoyu pointed to the flower in Situ Jasmine's hand: "Although the ancient temple begonia is indeed a flower, it is really inappropriate to call it a plant, anyway, I don't think so." ”
Situ Jasmine: "What is not a plant?" ”
Cha Duoyu: "The messenger who guides the undead feeds on dry bones and blood, this is a flower belonging to hell and should not appear on earth." I'm sure you've probably heard something like that, otherwise you wouldn't be so strange. What makes me curious is, what are you looking for ancient temple begonias? ”
Without giving Situ Jasmine a chance to answer, Cha Duoyu continued to ask, "Do you believe that there are ghosts in this world?" Are you afraid of ghosts? Do you know how to deal with ghosts? ”
Situ Jasmine didn't answer, Cha Duoyu answered for her: "You definitely don't understand, there must be ghosts where there are ancient temples and begonias, and there must be many ghosts, looking for it is equivalent to looking for death." ”
Silent.
There was a long silence.
Then Situ Jasmine said with a firm expression: "The legend is right in front of me, I can't give up, if I can unlock the secret of the ancient temple begonia, I can definitely shock the entire biological world." ”
"You have to help me."
Cha Duoyu sneered: "Why should I help you?" Aren't you here to crack the death incident at the Yinshan Cement Factory? Changed your mind? ”
Situ Jasmine: "It's not a conflict, it's very likely that the deaths of those workers have something to do with these flowers." ”
Cha Duoyu: "What about the liar? Thanks to the fact that you are still a scientist, this ancient temple begonia is just a messenger, not a god of death. Flowers, in themselves, are not harmful. ”
Seeing that Situ Jasmine still had something to say, Cha Duoyu directly interrupted the other party: "No matter what you say, I won't help you, and I advise you to do it in moderation, some things are beyond your ability." Man, do what you can, impulse is the devil. ”
The terrain in the mountains is undulating, and every house is built on the mountain.
Yingying's home sits on a high hill, standing under the eaves, just in front of half of the village.
Very suddenly.
One second ago, Cha Duoyu saw the village lit up with white lanterns, and the next second all the lights were extinguished, just like the power in the city.
In a split second.
It was pitch black.
The wailing of the vigil also came to an abrupt end.
The night, the black is terrible, the wind, the cold is scary, and the ghost and god masks of the tea and fish spirit sea are red and dazzling.
Zhai Long, Lao Diao, and Uncle Qi, who were resting in the house, opened their eyes almost at the same time, and they naturally couldn't find the figure of the ghost, but their sense of danger woke them up. Then there is the private detective Ke Wan, the old criminal policeman Chu Dongnan, and the forensic doctor Song Mingyue and Lin Ruohan are still sleeping.
Cha Duoyu posted a yellow charm towards the door and told Situ Jasmine: "Don't let anyone else out, go back by yourself." ”
