Chapter 520: Turning into an Immortal
I mentioned the Thousand-Armed Thousand-Eyed Guanyin, and those little ghosts really quieted down. They all said: "Our eyes are given by Guanyin, we can't forget our roots." Go and do evil again. ”
Then they asked, "What about the statue of Guanyin?" What about the temple? We also want to thank Guanyin. ”
Mr. Lu said, "The gods and Buddhas are gone. ”
The imps asked, "Where did you go?" I was here three days ago. How did it go? ”
Mr. Lu walked up to them, pointed to their chests one by one, and said, "The gods and Buddhas have gone to your hearts." You get what you want, you have eyes, go and reincarnate, be a good person, and don't live up to the kindness of the gods and Buddhas. ”
The imps were silent for a moment, then nodded. They said goodbye to each other. It has been making trouble for a few hours, and then there is no one left.
Exhausted, I sat down in the wheat field and said, "These little imps are finally gone, and they are making a lot of noise." ”
Mr. Lu stretched out his hand. Pull me up. said: "Okay, our business is done, let's go to bed early." After tossing and turning all night, the sky is about to dawn. ”
I muttered, "Mr. Lu, since I met you, my biological clock has also been messed up." It has become diurnal and nocturnal, and it is becoming more and more similar to those little ghosts. ”
Mr. Lu smiled and said, "Zhao Mang, your other skills are not very good, and your ability to complain is rising day by day." ”
I sneered: "My ability has risen faster." It's not as many tricks as you pit people. ”
The three of us made a noisy noise and returned to Huaicheng City. There were just three of us on the street, and it was empty, quiet, and scary. It felt like I was walking in a dead city.
I wrapped my clothes tightly. said: "As soon as Huaicheng arrives at night, it becomes so terrifying. ”
Mr. Lu said: "Isn't it like this every night in Huaicheng? ”
I said, "That's true, it's so quiet every night, but today I feel doubly terrifying." ”
At this time, Xue Qian suddenly nodded and said, "I feel this way too." ”
We're halfway there. Suddenly, Xue Qian stretched out her hand. Stopped us. He said nervously, "Don't make a sound, you listen." ”
I was a little nervous by him, so I quickly stood still on the road and listened carefully with my ears sideways. But all I could hear was the night wind blowing the pieces of paper and scraping against the ground, and nothing else.
I looked at Xue Qian suspiciously. And Xue Qian seemed to know what I was thinking. He pointed into the distance and said, "The sound of horses' hooves." ”
I frowned and thought to myself, "What age is this, how can there be the sound of horses' hooves?" Besides, even if there are people in the suburbs who raise horses, I'm afraid they are not allowed to enter the city. ”
However, I listened for a while and really heard the sound of horses' hooves. The nails of the hooves slammed into the ground with a crunch. It's just that this sound is too far away from us, if Xue Qian doesn't say that this is the sound of horses' hooves, I can't think of it at all. Now I can only infer from the pattern of the undulating sound that someone is galloping on the streets of Huaicheng.
Gradually, I felt the sound of horses' hooves rapidly approaching us, and I straightened up and looked into the distance, but still saw nothing.
There is no need to silence at this time, the sound of the horse's hooves is already loud enough to be undisturbed. I said, "I've only seen late-night drag racing before, but this is the first time I've seen a late-night racehorse." ”
As he spoke, a shadow appeared at the end of the road in the distance. This shadow is rapidly approaching us with the sound of horses' hooves.
The horse's hooves crackled on the side of the road like raindrops, which showed how fast it was.
In the blink of an eye, a man and a horse appeared in our field of vision. By the street lights, I saw that the horses were very vigorous and the people were very thin. The man looked ahead, jolting up and down as the fast horse galloped. Then, like a bolt of lightning, it ran past us.
The horse was brought up by a gust of wind, and I couldn't open my eyes.
Suddenly, Xue Qian screamed, galloped wildly, and chased after the horse.
Mr. Lu and I looked at Xue Qian, who suddenly went crazy, and didn't know what was going on. I could only follow with a puzzled face.
The two of us yelled behind Xue Qian, while Xue Qian turned a deaf ear and just ran towards the horse.
It's just that the speed of the horses is much faster than ours. We chased for about 100 meters, and the horse disappeared at the end of the street. Throughout, it doesn't mean to slow things down. And looking at its direction, it seems to be running towards the suburbs.
Mr. Lu and I ran to Xue Qian's side and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Xue Qian shook her head and said with a gloomy expression: "It's nothing, I recognized the wrong person, I recognized the wrong person." ”
Mr. Lu and I were so surprised that we couldn't help but ask, "Who do you recognize?" ”
However, Xue Qian refused to speak. He kept his head down and walked in the direction of home.
Mr. Lu and I saw that he was not giving up, so we had to stop asking. After a while, the three of us arrived. Mr. Lu and Xue Qian went back. And I was standing in the doorway. I watched them go farther and farther.
I don't know why, since the horse ran over just now, I feel that Huaicheng is not so terrifying.
It was still quiet, not like it had the breath of a living person. But for some reason, I felt safe.
I sighed outside for a while, then went inside and lit the candles.
I lay in bed and stared at the candle for a while, never able to sleep. It wasn't until there was a rooster crow outside that I breathed a sigh of relief, both mentally and physically, and relaxed.
I lay in bed and thought, "Looks like my body clock is really out of order." Hopefully, one day, I can be normal again. ”
At noon the next day, I felt in my sleep that there was one more person in the room. I opened my eyes alertly and found that this person was Xue Qian.
I sat up from the bed and saw Xue Qian's unrelenting look, and I asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Xue Qian sat on my broken bed, staring at the uneven tabletop, not saying a word.
My hand shook in front of his eyes. Xue Qian suddenly came back to her senses, looked at me, and said, "What's wrong?" ”
I laughed and said, "I was about to ask you, what's wrong with you?" ”
Xue Qian reluctantly smiled and said, "I'm fine." ”
Then he dragged his cheeks and said, "I met Secretary Wang just now, and he said that at seven o'clock tonight, the three of us will be invited to dinner." ”
I said, "Okay." ”
Xue Qian nodded and said, "It's good, it's good." ”
Then he sat inside in a daze.
I feel that something must have happened to Xue Qian. In the past, when he came, he either laughed at the spooky nature of my house, or tried to get out of the house. But today his appearance was very abnormal, as if there was something in the room that attracted him and made him not want to go at all.
I asked a few times tentatively, but Xue Qian was always perfunctory, and finally was forced to be helpless, and said: "When I see any clues, you will definitely call you." ”
The two of us sat together until the evening, and then Mr. Lu also came. The three of us walked towards the agreed hotel. It was found that Officer Stone was there as well.!
Officer Shi smiled: "I'm borrowing flowers to offer Buddha." The three masters helped me solve a big case, and I will thank you through Secretary Wang's dinner. Then he drank all his glasses.
A few of us talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was quite lively. At the beginning, Xue Qian looked depressed and worried, but after a long time, she seemed to be infected by us, and she smiled.
When the dishes on the table were eaten, we were also half drunk. Xue Qian suddenly knelt on the table, half-opened her drunken eyes, and said to Mr. Lu: "Old Dao Lu, if I ask you something, you have to answer truthfully." ”
Mr. Lu smiled and said, "What are you going to question me again?" ”
Xue Qian thought for a while, and then said cautiously: "You have been walking on the rivers and lakes for so long, your experience should not be shallow, right?" Do you know if a dead person can come back to life? ”
Mr. Lu smiled: "Coming back from the dead? Strictly speaking, you died the night before, and then before dawn, didn't you come back to life? ”
Xue Qian shook her head, and then asked solemnly, "What if you have been dead for many years?" ”
