Chapter 35: Grass Gu
Back in Nanhua Mountain, Xie Xiaolou looked at the small room in front of him, and it was a little difficult to advance and retreat.
I feel that since I started to participate in the investigation of the case, my world has been changed, my dead friends have begun to raise ghosts, my sister has become an old corpse, my mother has become the heir of the Gu book, Uncle Wu has gone to another world, and the merciful old monk, the strange teenager on the bus, all of them seem to have nothing to do with this case, but it seems that it happened to them because of this case.
"Let's go, stand and return to the soul?"
Xie Xiaolou was suddenly pushed by Xie Xiaoyu before he came back to his senses.
"I'm wondering, do I call your sister or grandma?" Xie Xiaolou looked at Xie Xiaoyu as if in the afterlife.
Xie Xiaoyu said with a smile: "The girls nowadays are young to pretend to be mature, and the old to pretend to be young, what do you say?" "Let's go, little sister." Xie Xiaolou said with interest.
The two came to the door one after the other, Xie Xiaolou took out the key and opened the door, and as soon as he entered the house, he smelled a smell similar to the fragrance of medicine, and saw his mother sitting on a small wooden bench in front of the charcoal stove boiling medicine.
"Mom, I've been working hard for you these days when I'm not at home." Xie Xiaolou hurriedly ran up and wanted to help his mother back to the bed in the bedroom to rest.
"Xiaolou is back, you are busy outside and working hard, pay attention to rest." Mother Xie was supported by her son, and a kind smile appeared on her old cheeks.
"Mom, Xiaoyu is also back, ...... today" Xie Xiaolou didn't expect Xie Xiaoyu to attend classes at school normally for a while, "Today, their school organized to come to Phoenix to participate in the knowledge competition, and I saw that they were resting at noon, so I came back with them." “
Normally, how can there be a school in the city to participate in the county to participate in the competition, Xie Xiaolou pondered that his mother was not clear anyway, so he made up a reason casually.
However, Xie Mu didn't say anything, didn't even look at Xie Xiaoyu, and slowly lay down on the bed with Xie Xiaolou's support.
Xie Xiaolou felt strange, turned his head and shouted to Xiaoyu, "Come in and see Mom." ”
Xie Xiaoyu entered in response to the sound outside the hall, Xie Xiaolou had just settled his mother, and when he saw Xie Xiaoyu coming in, he sat down in front of the coal stove to see how the medicine was decoctioned, only to hear a snort, but saw Xie Xiaoyu expressionlessly stretching out his five-fingered hand and grabbing Xie Mu's neck!
"Light rain!" Xie Xiaolou was shocked, thinking that Xie Xiaoyu was suddenly ferocious and wanted to hurt people, so he hurriedly prepared to bite his fingers.
But what kind of species is Xie Xiaoyu, before Xie Xiaolou could react, he had already choked Xie Mu's neck, and the strange thing was that Xie Mu didn't say a word, just stared dryly.
Xie Xiaoyu sneered, grabbed Xie Mu with only one hand, lifted it and threw it on the ground, and said, "Look at what this is." ”
Under this coherent action, Xie Xiaolou didn't even have time to bite his fingers, and when he heard Xie Xiaoyu say this, he stared at his mother on the ground carefully.
A moment later, Xie Mu, who was originally lying on the ground, turned into a scarecrow the same size as her!
And the coal stove in front of Xie Xiaolou became deserted, not to mention the medicine jar on it, which was not as hot as the coal that was burned before. "Could it be ......" Xie Xiaolou slowly came back to his senses, and there was a trace of speculation in his heart.
"Yes, this is a grass Gu." Xie Xiaoyu said, "She shouldn't have expected me to come back, so this Gu is just for you." ”
Xie Xiaolou then remembered why the "mother" ignored Xie Xiaoyu just now, just like the "Xie Xiaoyu" program was not implanted in the computer, so the "computer" naturally couldn't run this "software".
He further realized that since there was no medicine here, the smell of medicine that he smelled when he just entered the door of the house should be the smell of grass Gu.
"So where did mom go?" After sorting out the situation, he realized that the real mother was nowhere to be found.
"I don't know," Xie Xiaoyu said staring at the grass man on the ground, "This grass Gu is colorless and harmless, it just makes people hallucinate, it seems that it was arranged by my mother herself, and she doesn't want to harm you, maybe she just wants to drag you down." ”
"Hold me back?" Xie Xiaolou fell into deep thought, if it was really to drag himself down, then his mother would definitely go somewhere to do something that was inconvenient for him to know, but his mother was weak, where could she go?
"Don't worry, this Gu was arranged by my mother, I should have prepared myself, I wasn't forcibly taken away by someone, there should be no danger, I just don't want you to participate, maybe, I'll come back later." Xie Xiaoyu is a mother, and obviously prefers to be a sister.
Fortunately, I knew my mother's identity early, otherwise Xie Xiaolou would definitely be in a hurry to look for people all over the world now.
"Now that you know her identity, you can help me think about it, where will she go?" Xie Xiaolou remembered that his sister was a "person who came over" after all, and hoped to learn more from her, "Since she is the apprentice of the Gu Book Heir, will she go to her master?" ”
"It's not that it's impossible," Xie Xiaoyu said, "But I only know that she is a disciple of the Gu Book Heir, as for what the Gu Book is, who the Gu Book Inheritor is, and where it is now, I don't know anything." ”
"This ......" Xie Xiaolou's original hope was shattered in an instant.
"It's not impossible, though." Xie Xiaoyujiao smiled, "You have so many police friends, let them help." ”
"Ouch," Xie Xiaolou patted himself on the head, "yes, the police don't eat dry food, how could I forget such a good resource." ”
As he spoke, he immediately called Long Yan.
"Dude, don't worry, your mother is my mother, this is my own business, I'll arrange it." Long Yan has been in the police station for so long, and now he is still the deputy captain of the criminal investigation team, and it is not a matter of minutes to arrange a missing person notice.
"Well, you have a conscience." Xie Xiaolou was very grateful in his heart, but he still teased him.
After hanging up the phone, Xie Xiaolou remembered Long Yan's matter, and told Xie Xiaoyu about his previous suspicions about Long Yan, and asked her to help analyze and analyze.
"Judging from my sixty or seventy years of life experience," Xie Xiaoyu looks like a 17-year-old high school student, so he looks a little pretended, "That kid still has a heart for you, but logically speaking, this matter has nothing to do with him." ”
"To say it is to say nothing." Xie Xiaolou had already thought of this, so he wavered.
"Don't panic, I haven't finished talking yet," Xie Xiaoyu looked at his "brother" dissatisfied, "But he didn't know you had a soul book!" ”
"Moreover, you said that he raised a little ghost when he graduated from the police academy, so if he really had the idea of beating your corpse, he would have started it a long time ago, and there is no need to wait until this time to involve the M team." Xie Xiaoyu is really more sophisticated than Xie Xiaolou, and after listening to Xie Xiaolou's description for just a few minutes, he analyzed some clues, "Even if he wants to start at this time, he won't take the initiative to reveal to you about his raising a little ghost, let alone save you at school, isn't it best to start at that time?" ”
Xie Xiaolou thought about it carefully at this time, and immediately admired Xie Xiaoyu: "Then who do you think it will be?" “
Xie Xiaoyu blinked: "It's not just people who know that you have the Corpse Sutra and the Soul Book. ”
As soon as this sentence came out, Xie Xiaolou was hit hard: "You mean...... Uncle Wu? As soon as he said it, he immediately denied himself: "No, it can't be, it can't be him." “
"You kid, you're so immature." Xie Xiaoyu instead taught his "brother" a lesson: "There are two possibilities, one is passive, that is, Wu Shuntong's soul was imprisoned by someone and cast a spell, and then tortured to say it; And he took the initiative to say it, as for the reason, I can't guess. If you talk about the relationship between him and Xie Yuan, that is, your father, it was not bad in those years. ”
"It must be, it must be that Uncle Wu has been threatened, and he can't be reincarnated yet, so he told my secret out of desperation." Xie Xiaolou looked hesitant, "I'm going to try to conjure spirits today, and see if I can call him up and ask him clearly." ”
"Don't waste your efforts." Xie Xiaoyu said coldly.
