Chapter Twenty-Four: The Strange Baby

At half past five in the afternoon, Niu Yulan and Qin Shaoguang were preparing dinner in the kitchen, and Bai Xiaoou was frightened and rested alone in the bedroom. Bai Fan sat on the balcony with Qin Yan in his arms and pretended to look at the scenery.

"Boy, that black gas in your mother's palm is very abnormal!"

"Aren't you talking nonsense?"

"Hey, stinky boy, I'm your grandfather, speak politely."

“......”

"So, what do you see it is?"

"There is a little speculation, my mother is a descendant of the nine-tailed white fox, with the purest qi on her body, and wearing a jade pendant that demons are afraid of, ordinary little ghosts and demons can't get close, but this time she can be injured by a dead baby, which means that after the baby died, his soul was forcibly suppressed in the body, and it has been a short period of time, so he is very resentful."

"Not a short time? But your grandmother said it wasn't long since she died. ”

"Alas, everyone says foxes are smart, and I look at you like a stupid fox."

Qin Yan was only more than six months old at this time, and no matter which adult he was holding in his arms, he would look very weak. At this time, Bai Fan's hand was slightly forced, and he felt a threat from his body.

"You're a good mouthful, aren't you? Do you want to know how powerful your grandfather is? ”

"I don't want to, I say I say, I continue."

Rolling his eyes at Bai Fan, Qin Yan whispered, "I suspect that someone is refining the Trick Baby. ”

"Ghost baby? Do you still need to refine it? He's dead, isn't he just a little ghost. ”

"Stupid, weird, weird."

"Huh? Wasn't this forbidden more than 2,000 years ago? How can anyone dare to practice? In this case, the child died as early as the time when the pregnant woman was formed in the womb, and the soul was still very weak at that time, but it was forcibly suppressed in the stillbirth, and the resentment was bound to multiply, and at the same time it had to absorb the essence of the pregnant woman. Alas, what a sin! ”

"This kind of superficial prohibition has never been stopped. When I was the king of Hades, I sent people out every once in a while to kill the treacherous baby, but now? The underworld doesn't care if you live or die in the yang. Hum! ”

"Alas, there is no way, there are rules in heaven, and the world is in the world. Hades is not to be interfered with. ”

"Oh? Then the last time I came up with the idea to ask you to call the old judge, it didn't count as meddling in human affairs? ”

"That's different, Lu Dandan is dead, he is a ghost, and he belongs to the underworld."

"This little ghost has also died a long time ago, doesn't it belong to the underworld?"

"This ......"

"Nothing more? Hum! ”

"Alright, it's useless for us to argue. Where strange babies have always been haunted, there will inevitably be deaths, not to mention a dozen people, but more than a hundred. Since you deduce that this dead baby is a treacherous baby, then we have to find a way to stop him from killing. You know, your family is an ordinary person, we have to take precautions! ”

"Well, you've finally got your words back. However, I think the most important thing at the moment is to find the person who refines the Trick Baby. Since she can be raised to term in the womb of a pregnant woman, it means that this person is by the pregnant woman's side, at least a family member or friend she trusts. ”

"I heard Xiaoou say that Li Yuqi lives with her husband and mother-in-law, could it be one of the two of them? But it doesn't make sense, her mother-in-law has long been looking forward to the birth of her grandson, and she is not very good at doing such a thing; As for her husband, it is also his son, and the tiger poison does not eat children, so it is not very likely. ”

"Are there any other trusted relatives or friends?"

Bai Fan shook his head, he hadn't paid attention to Li Yuqi's family at all, how could he understand it so clearly?

"Professor Bai, it's time to eat." Before the two could discuss a result, Niu Yulan's shout was heard.

Bai Fan turned his head and smiled, turned his face to Qin Yan and said, "I'll go back and check that Li Yuqi, there are those people who are particularly close, and then let's check them one by one." That's all for today. ”

"Well, that strange baby was touched by my mother during the day, and I must know that she is not an ordinary person, so she should not dare to act rashly at present. By the way, you can't just give me egg yolks for a while, you can secretly give me some meat. ”

"The teeth haven't come out, and you still eat meat? Do you eat moving? ”

"If you can't eat it, you can taste it!"

“......”

After dinner, Bai Fan and Qin Shaoguang played chess as usual, Bai Xiaoou no longer thought about the baby at the moment, and saw that Qin Yan was not sleepy, so he hugged him and watched; After Niu Yulan cleaned up the kitchen, she went downstairs to square dance with the other old ladies.

When it was almost nine o'clock, Qin Peng came home, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw two old people, one young and one young in the family gathered in front of the chessboard, and couldn't help laughing, "Oh, is this to cultivate our Xiao Yan's love for chess from an early age?" ”

Qin Shao snorted coldly without raising his bald head: "Hmph, when you were young, I didn't work chess?" But you don't put your mind on it at all, and until now, you can't play chess with me in five moves. How can we be like Xiao Yan, who has only been watching chess so seriously for more than six months, and will definitely be a genius in this area in the future, right, Sun Tzu? ”

"Old Qin, don't worry, with the two of us here, Qin Yan will have to become a talent no matter what."

Qin Peng pursed his lips and glanced at Bai Xiaoou with a smile.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door. Qin Peng thought it was his mother, and walked over and opened the door.

"Huh? Aunt Hu? Are you looking for my mom so late? ”

"Qin Peng, I'm looking for your dad, is your dad back?"

"My dad is at home, Dad, Aunt Hu is looking for you."

Hearing the shout, Qin Shaoguang had to drop the chess in his hand, get up and walk to the door.

"Old Qin, when did you come back?" As soon as she saw Qin Shaoguang, without waiting for him to speak, Aunt Hu asked anxiously.

"I'll be back at five o'clock, what's wrong?" Seeing Aunt Hu's expression, Qin Shaoguang felt very strange.

"Huh? You'll be back at five o'clock? I thought you were drinking a little wine with our old Zhu. That...... Then why didn't you come back together at the Nancheng vegetable market you went to? Do you know where he went? ”

"We're back together, and we're going upstairs together. Oh no, I walked up the elevator, and the stairs he climbed were just then separated. It's just a little after five o'clock. How? He didn't come home? ”

"No, I haven't seen anyone until now."

"Excuse me, what floor is your house?" Bai Fan came over at some point, squeezed beside Qin Shaoguang and asked Aunt Hu.

"Fourth floor, Professor Bai, I told you last time!" Aunt Hu knew Bai Fan and danced the square dance together.

Bai Fan smiled wryly, but he had no impression of where her family lived. But he turned his face and asked again, "Do you live upstairs from Li Yuqi's house?" ”

"Yes, just live upstairs from her house." Hearing Li Yuqi's name, Aunt Hu's face changed slightly.

Not good!

Bai Fan thought in his heart, immediately changed his shoes at the door, and said to Qin Peng at the same time: "Let's go, let's go to the fourth floor together." ”

Except for Bai Xiaoou and Qin Yan, the other four went out and got on the elevator together.

After stopping on the fourth floor, Qin Peng took the lead and walked out. Coincidentally, he and Bai Fan walked to the staircase on the fourth floor together, Qin Shaoguang and Aunt Hu followed closely behind. Although I don't understand what the two people thought, it seems that Lao Zhu should be able to be found.

Coming down from the fourth floor, when he was about to enter the third floor, Bai Fan stretched out his hand to stop Qin Peng, "Wait." ”

Qin Peng looked at his father-in-law suspiciously, and was stunned, only to see that Bai Fan's expression at the moment was different from before, his expression was serious, his sword eyebrows were deeply locked, and his eyes seemed to have a white glow flashing out, but it was only in an instant that it had returned to normal. The two behind him had no chance to notice his anomaly.

"Alright, let's go."
