I asked Mr. Lui, "Does she have any relationship with that painting?" ”

Mr. Lu said: "She knows the owner of the painting. ”

After Mr. Lu said this, he fell silent.

I looked at him in amazement: "That's all? That's where you come from? ”

Mr. Lu smiled and said to me, "Otherwise, what do you think? People who can draw pictures of the Buddha's teachings are very capable. ”

When I heard this, I couldn't help but nod and said, "The Buddha's lecture diagram is indeed very powerful, but it doesn't seem to be of any other use except for being able to hide my life lamp." ”

Mr. Lu sneered and said, "That's just that you haven't figured out its mystery yet. This painting has been in the world for many years, and finally fell into the hands of my ancestors, and then passed down from generation to generation. It is said that this painting is very powerful, but no one can understand the mystery of it. After several generations of Taoist people have studied it, they have only used it to hide the life lamp. Hey, that's a bit overkill. ”

Then, Mr. Lu looked at me with a smile: "Zhao Mang, if you are willing to be my apprentice, this picture will belong to you sooner or later." ”

I smiled, "What? Do you feel that your life is short, and you are in a hurry to explain what will happen? ”

Mr. Lu snorted and said, "Dao Ye is still planning to ascend to immortality." ”

I smiled and said, "It turns out that when she asked me about the whereabouts of the painting, she was referring to the Buddha's lecture map. ”

Mr. Lu nodded and said, "Over the years, there have been many people who have been absorbed by her mind and drawn souls on paper, but only you can wake up. According to her, it was because your life lamp was once hidden in the Buddha's lecture diagram. The painting has some effect on your body and allows you to wake up at a critical moment. When she saw you wake up suddenly, she immediately realized that you might have seen this picture, so she asked you for it. ”

I nodded confusedly: "I see." If we give him the Buddha's lecture map, will Xue Qian be able to save him? ”

Mr. Lu scratched his hair with some worry and said, "It's not that simple, but we can only do our best and take one step at a time." ”

I saw that Mr. Lu looked very worried, so I didn't speak again.

After a while, a policeman came over and said, "Mr. Lu, Director Liu's body has been loaded into the car. Are you going back with us? ”

Mr. Lu shook his head and said, "Zhao Mang and I can't go back yet. Go first. ”

The policemen looked at us suspiciously: "Shall we go like this?" ”

Mr. Lu thought for a while and asked me, "Zhao Mang, where is your Buddha's lecture map?" ”

I said, "It's hanging on the wall of the empty house." ”

Mr. Lu described it to the policeman and asked him to bring the Buddha's lecture diagram. He thought for a moment and ordered the police to bring a shovel.

The policeman looked at Mr. Lu suspiciously: "What do you want these things for?" ”

Mr. Lu waved his hand impatiently: "You just do it." ”

The policeman said yes, turned around and went out.

Mr. Lu shouted behind him, "By the way, don't forget to go to Mrs. Xue's house and report to her that she is safe." ”

The police agreed, and then, with the rumbling of cars outside, they all left.

I saw that Mr. Lu's face was pale, and he was always speaking weakly, so I couldn't help asking: Mr. Lu, are you okay? “

Mr. Lu shook his head and said, "It's just that half of the soul is missing, it's nothing." ”

Then, he said a little proudly: "Zhao Mang, do you see it?" This is what a cultivator is capable of. Even if you lose half of your soul, you can still live. But like you or Xue Qian, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it. ”

I grinned and said, "You've been forced to draw souls, so don't brag here?" ”

Mr. Lu retorted: "Why did that woman force me to draw a soul? Because she thinks I'm a threat, and that's what she looks up to. Why not force you? Because I know it's the same whether you draw or not. ”

I waved my hand and said, "You can comfort yourself here." ”

Half an hour later, a police car stopped in front of the gas station. Then two policemen jumped from above. The two of them looked like thieves, one holding the painting, the other carrying a shovel, looking east and west, and making sure that it was normal, and then they dared to walk in.

Mr. Lu smiled at them, "You two don't have to be afraid. I've painted my soul on the wall. The imps here won't hurt you. ”

The two men agreed with a sneer.

Mr. Lu waved his hand and said, "Okay, you two go back, there is nothing for you here." ”

The two policemen agreed. A bucket of water, several large bags of food, and a quilt were brought down from the police car.

Mr. Lu smiled: "The two of us don't live here permanently, what are you doing here?" ”

The policeman scratched his head and said, "Today, the brothers are very grateful thanks to Mr. Lu for saving me." Now I see that your body is a little weak, and you have a bed quilt at night, so be comfortable. ”

Mr. Lu smiled and said, "Okay, I know, you guys go back early, don't delay any longer." ”

In fact, after some tossing, it was already afternoon.

After the police left, I spread the quilt on the broken bed and sat on it with Mr. Lu, eating and drinking.

After eating, I felt sleepy and lay down in bed, trying to sleep.

Mr. Lu, on the other hand, sat cross-legged on the ground, working hard without saying a word.

Just when I was about to fall asleep in a daze, Mr. Lu suddenly said: "Actually, Xue Qian is not difficult to save, as for Director Liu, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

I felt a little strange in my heart, and I closed my eyes and asked, "Why?" ”

Mr. Lu said: "The woman in red hates Director Liu to the core, do you know why? ”

I turned over and said, "I'm also thinking it's strange, Director Liu is a good official, why do you suddenly have nightmares every day, dreaming of driving on this road?" When I started, I thought that the ghost who died in a car accident here wanted to seek revenge on him. But he said no, that the really scary thing wasn't on the road, it was inside the gas station. ”

Mr. Lu said: "That's right, it's not the little ghost who wants to harm him, it's the woman in red." She instructed the little ghost to dream and lure him here, and finally killed him. ”

I asked, "So what kind of grudge do the two of them have?" ”

Mr. Lu said: "Isn't Director Liu in charge of transportation? When the road was built, there was only one road here, and there was no intention to build the rest of the facilities. But he wanted to add a gas station here. Then let his brother and sister-in-law in the countryside take care of this place, which can be regarded as giving the family something to eat. ”

I said, "This is an abuse of power for personal gain, although it is not right, but I am afraid that it will not lead to death." ”

Mr. Lu laughed and said, "No, no, he shouldn't have built the gas station on top of the woman in red." The woman was crushed by a gas station, could she give up? She had been harming two pedestrians from time to time, but since she was held down by the gas station, it has become even worse, and someone has been in a car accident here almost every week. ”

"Director Liu's brother and sister-in-law are from the countryside, fearing ghosts and gods, knowing that this place is evil, and they dare not stay longer. Packed up and went back. Before leaving, he bowed to the four corners, which was regarded as an apology to the wronged ghosts here. ”

It dawned on me: "It turns out that those candles were left by them." These things are all sued by the woman in red? ”

Mr. Lu nodded and said, "After the two of them left here, the rumor that this place was haunted has spread. No one dares to come here to work anymore. The gas station was abandoned. ”

At this point, he pointed to the shovel standing in the corner of the wall and said, "After dark, you dig out the woman in red." "Array of longitudinal claw strokes.

Mr. Lu said this lightly, but after I heard it, my hairs suddenly stood up: "Me? Digging up corpses at night? Mr. Lu, there were so many policemen here just now, why didn't you let them dig up? Don't always find me. ”

Mr. Lu looked calm: "Don't be so excited. Those policemen are not Taoist priests after all, if they are not hard enough, they will rashly dig up such a powerful character as the woman in red. If you are rushed by yin qi, you will definitely get seriously ill. ”

I lay on the bed and said with some resentment, "Is my figure eight hard?" ”

Mr. Lu actually brazenly answered: "Well, your eight characters are very hard. ”
