Chapter 250: It's not an illusion, it's a human heart.
"Qi Gongzi, have you ever been stricken?"
After Monk Kukai whispered these words, he didn't stop, Shi Shiran walked out of the door.
Qi Zihuan was still in place, surprised.
Have you had surgery?
Is it referring to the scene where the demon cat was haunted just now?
But at that time, only he and Kukai remained clear, and the two of them knew very well in their hearts, and they also said that they were involved in miscellaneous science, and they did not deliberately hide it.
If not, what is it referring to?
Qi Zihuan has had some doubts about the role of Kukai Monk since the original film, and he has always been unable to understand that he has clearly seen through a lot of things, but he rarely intervenes, and has always silently followed Bai Juyi as a bystander.
That's why there was some aggressive tentative action just now.
As a result, Kukai hadn't figured out what was going on behind Kukai's professional smile, but he was swayed by his endless words.
Qi Zihuan shook his head and warned himself not to think about it for the time being if he couldn't figure it out, but Yu Guang saw Bai Juyi coming over.
"Brother Qi and the others haven't come yet?" Bai Juyi experienced all kinds of things tonight, and his face was also a little tired.
During the banquet just now, Qi Zihuan also said that he had made an appointment to come here for a banquet tonight, and he "coincidentally" met Bai Juyi and Kukai.
Qi Zihuan spread his hands and said helplessly: "I asked the bustard several times, but I said that I didn't come...... I guess I won't be here tonight......"
In the original film, the entertainer who played the trick of planting melons has multiple identities, and he is also a mysterious and suspicious character. Qi Zihuan casually dropped his hand and invited him to come to see the cat, but who knew that the other party simply ignored it.
"The black cat who hurt people tonight is also related to another case, and although I resigned for some of these reasons, I still want to find out the truth." Bai Juyi said slowly while holding the measure, "I see that Brother Qi has studied illusion and Gu arts, so you might as well go to Chen Yunqiao's house with us tomorrow night and try to take down that black cat." ”
"Okay, I'm also curious about who this demon cat is, let's go with me tomorrow night."
……
Day 2.
The night sky is hazy, without stars and moon.
There were many people inside and outside the Chen Mansion who walked lightly, looking nervous and vigilant.
At the door and in the courtyard, there are family members standing guard and patrolling, two people in a team, and there is no gap. These people say that they are family members, but in fact, they are all veterans who have retired from the border army, and they have seen blood on the battlefield, although they may not necessarily stand straight, but their eyes that occasionally glance at the dark places in the courtyard are very fierce.
As for the two-story main house where Chen Yunqiao lives, the rooms on the side of the stairs on each floor are now full of cigarettes, and each has a yellow-robed Taoist priest chanting sutras. This is the high merit he invited from the Baiyun Temple on the outskirts of the city at a high price during the day.
This kind of defense, it is said that even a team of robbers and bandits may not be able to capture it in a short time.
But Chen Yunqiao was still tossing and turning on the couch, and it was difficult to sleep.
He always remembered that he had come home in a hurry last night and saw a patch of scarlet in the pond in his yard.
The precious koi fish all turned white and filled the entire pond.
Every one, was eaten by the eyes.
He regretted it a little, and when he returned home a few days ago and listened to his wife talk about the black cat, he just blindly greedily dug up the silver money according to the instructions of the black cat, and did not pay attention to the weirdness and mystery of the black cat.
After all, he's just a brute.
At that time, he thought so simply.
Who would have thought that today he would be deceived by a brute.
He rolled over and sat up in hatred, and remembered the three people who had come uninvited in the evening, and became more and more irritable.
Bai Juyi is a two-list jinshi, and he also entered the court as an official, and he is also the name of the great poet of the world. And that monk of the Wa Kingdom is the new envoy to the Tang Dynasty, and he is also a person who can meet the saint face-to-face.
These two people, plus a young man who looked like a face, kept saying that they were here to investigate the black cat case, but there were no official documents, which made Chen Yunqiao think that the other party was here to see the fun.
But even if they are unhappy, it is not good to really blow out, so they can only arrange guest rooms for them to stay.
At this time, the annoying trio did not stay in the guest room, but wandered to the courtyard pond to find an elegant pavilion to sit down. Qi Zihuan accompanied Bai Juyi to gossip about some poetry, and Monk Kukai sat quietly aside, admiring the rockery, flowers and trees in the courtyard with great interest.
In the third watch at night, nothing happened.
Bai Juyi was already yawning, and even those who were on duty were inevitably a little slack.
At that moment, a night breeze suddenly rose.
There was a loud shout from the door in the distance, and the three of them hurriedly got up and looked.
In Bai Juyi's opinion, at this time, a black cat jumped from the shoulders of one family member to another, and then the two of them spurted blood from their necks and fell to the ground softly.
In Qi Zihuan's opinion, it was the two family members who suddenly drew their blades and wiped the main artery in each other's neck at the same time.
In Kukai's opinion......
Who knows what this monk saw!
There were also screams from the corridor on the first floor of the main house, followed by the room where the Taoist priest was on the first floor......
Qi Zihuan completely ignored the chaotic screams, tilted his head and carefully felt the breath around him.
Suddenly, his face froze, and his body moved.
"I'm going to catch cats, Master Kukai, you help save people, they are all ...... illusions"
After finishing speaking, he ran to the downstairs of the mansion at a very fast speed, and with a few light climbs, he climbed up to the second-floor corridor with the help of his strength, and then rushed to Chen Yunqiao's bedroom.
Kukai and Bai Juyi glanced at each other, and they could only go according to their words.
Screams, shouts, and the sound of weapons colliding sounded all around the Chen Mansion.
But the real black cat was in front of Qi Zihuan and slipped into Chen Yunqiao's unclosed door.
Qi Zihuan didn't care about the etiquette at this time, and directly pushed the door in.
I saw Chunqin's eyes blank, sitting on the bed sluggishly, and she didn't even notice that her clothes were crooked and a large piece of spring light was exposed.
Chen Yunqiao sat on the ground, pointing to the top of Chunqin's head, trembling all over.
The black cat was lying on Chunqin's head at this time, leaning down, and its sharp claws pressed against the veins in the woman's neck.
"Chen Yunqiao, she is the woman you love the most, now life and death are at stake, do you save it or not?" The black cat's words were said to Chen Yunqiao, but his golden eyes stared at Qi Zihuan, who was standing cautiously by the door and no longer approached.
Chen Yunqiao's face changed several times, and after struggling repeatedly, he finally made up his mind and staggered up.
Then, without hesitation, he fled.
At the moment when he snatched the door and left, Chunqin seemed to have regained his senses, and shouted with a crying voice: "Official! Officials save me! ”
Chen Yunqiao's footsteps did not stop at all, and he ran farther and farther, shouting as he ran: "Someone!" Someone's coming! ”
Chunqin stopped shouting in despair, shrugged her bare shoulders and sobbed.
There was silence in the room for a moment before the black cat said in a deep voice.
"You can also see, this is not an illusion, it is the human heart."
