Chapter 194: Nine Joys
After a painful scolding, Hui Ling sat back on the chair and said: "Qingming, it is indeed possible that the matter is related to us, but it is definitely not our doing, the corpse leader has a friend named Jiuxi, who looks similar to him, and it turned out to be a person in our door, but then he ......, hey!" The family ugly still doesn't mention it anymore.
Jiuxi has been missing for many years, I didn't expect me to ask the corpse just now, he actually said that he had contacted him many times in the past year, damn, I'm angry, it's not my ruthlessness as a big brother, it's really that Jiuxi is too much of a thing. ”
Speaking of this, Hui Ling was angry, and his face was sad, as if he remembered some unhappy past.
He gave me the impression that he was the kind of person who didn't say anything, but just now he wanted to stop talking, and I thought that Jiuxi's deeds might be hated by many people.
After a pause, Hui Ling continued: "Regardless of whether this matter was done by Jiuxi or not, I must find him, and I can't let him stay in the world, otherwise there will be endless harm." In this way, human life is at stake, without further ado, I will leave to find him now, do you want to follow? ”
If we want to catch the murderer, we must not be idle, although Yingying has nothing to do with us, at least not with me, but Hui Ling is right, human life is a matter of heaven, since it has happened, if you want to manage it to the end.
I nodded and said, "Well, of course we have to go, but I don't know if Brother Hui knows where that Jiuxi is?" ”
Hui Ling frowned and pondered for a moment: "According to the corpse, Jiuxi has appeared many times near Yaqing Village this year, so his hiding place should not be far away. Twenty miles away, at the foot of Yinkui Mountain, there is a Niangniang Temple that has been abandoned for many years, maybe he will be there. With that, he turned around and glared at the corpse fiercely, and then without knowing what to say, the corpse turned around and walked to the second floor.
Seeing the corpse leaving, Zhu Gui, who had been silent, suddenly said: "I said, is he a dead man?" ”
Hui Ling was obviously shocked when he heard this, his body seemed to shake slightly, and then he looked at Zhu Gui and said, "Brother Zhu Gui has good eyesight, he must be a great expert, right?" ”
"Where, where, I just know a little bit about Taoist techniques," Zhu Gui looked slightly intentional as he crossed Erlang's legs.
My heart moved, I had always been curious about the identity of the corpse, but I didn't say anything, and I was embarrassed to ask, this time Zhu Gui, a straight man, asked it, which was exactly what I wanted.
Hui Ling hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I don't want to hide his identity, but if this kind of thing reaches the ears of outsiders, especially after some fellow believers learn about it, I am afraid that it will cause some trouble, so I hope that the brothers will keep their mouths shut and don't talk about it to the outside world." ”
"Hey, Brother Hui Ling, don't worry, you said so, I will definitely be as guarded as jade, ah, no, it's tight-lipped, hehe." As he spoke, Zhu Gui smirked twice.
Hui Lingyi frowned, obviously very uneasy about Zhu Gui's character, but when he said that, he was embarrassed to hide it anymore.
"That, that's the case, in fact, the corpse turned out to be a walking corpse, after being recruited by the master more than ten years ago, he wanted to overtake his soul, but there was an accident halfway, and the overtaking failed. Master didn't say what the reason was, but only told me to keep it at home for the time being. The master used various means to change the corpse into its current appearance, otherwise he would have been the same as the walking corpse outside at the beginning. ”
I was not surprised at all by Hui Ling's answer, although I couldn't see at a glance that the corpse was not a living person like Zhu Gui, but I had always doubted his identity in my heart, how could a living person have that kind of expression, that kind of demeanor.
In this way, although his state is not exactly the same as mine, there are still many similarities, from the corpse and friends, to be able to communicate with people, it is estimated that he can't speak, and the others should be much worse than me.
After Zhu Gui heard this, his eyes were purring, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Hu San watched silently from the sidelines, and seemed to be absent-minded.
"So, Jiuxi is also a walking corpse?"
In the air that had just been quiet for a moment, Zhu Gui's voice suddenly sounded.
I chuckled in my heart, I actually ignored such an important issue just now, the friends of the walking corpse are indeed very likely to be walking corpses, and it is very necessary for us to understand the details of the enemy, know ourselves and know the enemy, in order to win all battles.
Hui Ling waved his hand: "No, no, no, Jiuxi is his friend before his death, they played in a village from childhood to adulthood, and then Jiuxi entered the master's door first."
After the corpse died, the master took him as an apprentice, and then used some special methods to restore his memory, so he still knew Jiuxi. ”
"Oh," Zhu Gui nodded thoughtfully.
After a while, the corpse moved his stiff body and walked over slowly, holding a wooden sword in his hand and the soul bell.
As soon as I saw this bell, I subconsciously trembled slightly, remembering the feeling after hearing the bell yesterday, and I still have palpitations until now, damn, that taste is really worse than death.
Hui Ling seemed to guess my concerns, took out a rusty iron box from his arms and said: "Brother Qingming, don't worry, this time to find Jiuxi, may fight with him, although he is not a walking corpse, but he can control the corpse, so it is very likely to use the soul bell, you can wipe this on your ears in advance, to ensure that the bell is useless to you." ”
I took the box and opened the lid, and there was a fresh fragrance in my face, and inside was a red, sticky object, somewhat similar to cinnabar.
"What is this?" I asked.
"Cinnabar?" Zhu Gui, who was next to him, was suddenly surprised.
Hui Ling smiled: "That's right, it's cinnabar, the soul bell is a thing of extreme yin, and cinnabar is a thing of extreme yang, the two are mutually restrictive, and the soul bell will not work." Of course, this is not an ordinary cinnabar, it has some exclusive recipes from our master, but you can rest assured that it will be absolutely harmless to you. ”
Although he said this, I still have no bottom in my heart, it is harmless to ordinary people, not necessarily harmless to me, who knows what will happen after I wipe it, but take it first, and then talk about it.
Everything was ready to stop, the three of us, plus Hui Ling and the corpse, left the inn, and hurried to the Niangniang Temple at night, originally wanted to ask where the man in black who saw yesterday went, but then I wanted to care about him, what are you doing with so much care, it has nothing to do with me.
Although Hui Ling said that he was not sure that Jiuxi was there, but I think it was still very likely, Hui Ling was a person who looked very stable in doing things, and he would leave some leeway for himself when he spoke and did things, basically he said that he was thirty percent sure, so in fact, there must be at least sixty percent.
