Chapter 22: A Snowy Night
Su Tingting went upstairs, and as usual, changed into a set of sportswear first, and came to the hall of the gym. At this time, it is the peak season, and many exercisers are taking care of themselves and doing all kinds of actions to "torture themselves". Some even let out bursts of low roars.
Su Tingting quickly looked around and searched for her target, and in front of a treadmill in the corner, she saw the "diet expert" who was running in place at a uniform speed.
Take out your phone and pretend to take a selfie, pose in various cute poses, and take a side-scrolling photo from time to time. After doing a series of actions, the location and appearance characteristics of this "diet expert" have been photographed by Su Tingting.
Pretending to exercise, Su Tingting turned around and left.
At the moment of her departure, the "diet expert" suddenly glanced back at her departing back.
In the café downstairs, Chu Lin and Xing Wei had already discussed countermeasures, and when they were chatting, a beautiful figure walked in and sat directly beside Chu Lin.
Su Tingting put the photo in front of Chu Lin and Xing Wei. Before he could say the general location, Xing Wei's body, who had seen the photo, shook suddenly.
"What's the matter, Officer Xing?" asked Chu Lin blankly.
Xing Wei's beautiful eyes were slightly confused, and her voice trembled slightly: "This ...... This is my father."
"What?" Chu Lin and Su Tingting exclaimed in unison.
Xing Wei asked questioningly, "Are you sure that the dietetic expert you know is this person?" Are you sure that the bag of meat was indeed given to you by him?"
Su Tingting thought for a while and said: "The diet expert is indeed him, but I don't know if the bag of meat was sent by him."
Xing Wei said cautiously: "If it is really my father, we don't need to follow him, first, I believe that my father can't be a soul resurrection, there must be something strange here." Second, if he really has some kind of relationship with the Soul Restorer, it is useless for us to follow him, he is already a monk of the Imperial Spirit Period."
"Imperial Spirit Period?" Chu Lin couldn't help but sigh when he heard that there were very few cultivators in the Transformation Stage in this world.
Xing Wei spread his hands and said indifferently: "Yes, it is the Imperial Spirit Period, and the perception and combat power are invincible existences. So if we track it, we will be discovered, and even if we don't find it, we are not opponents."
Chu Lin thought for a while and said, "This matter is getting more and more unbelievable, the person who instructed the soul regeneration to hunt ordinary people shouldn't be an immortal cultivator, right?"
Xing Wei was silent, and said after a while: "I will personally ask my father about this matter, there is nothing else worth wasting time on now, I will go back first, you two please."
As he spoke, he lifted the LV bag he was carrying and walked out of the café door.
"Chu Lin, did I do something wrong," Su Tingting said with a not very good-looking face.
Chu Lin comforted: "It's nothing, I believe in the criminal police officer's character, if her father really has a problem, she will definitely not cover it up, in the face of a major matter of human life, I believe she will make the right choice."
After chatting a few words, Su Tingting sent Chu Lin back to the staff dormitory.
This is a luxury villa area on the outskirts of the city, and in the corner of this area, one of the largest and most conspicuous villas is located here. At this time, there was a ceasefire in the living room on the first floor. A man in sportswear stood in the middle of the hall, and this person was Xing Wei's father, Xing Tian. Another young woman stood across from the man, seemingly confronting him.
"Dad, shouldn't we immortal cultivators eliminate demons and maintain the harmony and tranquility of mankind?But why do you have something to do with the soul resurrection?" Xing Wei threw out such a sentence as soon as he entered the door.
Xing Tianbiao was expressionless, and said indifferently: "I have sensed that you have been in the coffee shop downstairs today, and since you already know some clues, it will be as you see."
"Then why is my mission in the Yuan Dynasty to kill a soul regeneration person in order to obtain the transformation pill given by the family?" Xing Wei asked.
Xing Tian still looked expressionless: "You are already in your 20s this year, and you have already met my requirements, there are some things, I don't want to hide it from you anymore, let you kill the soul restorer, so that you don't forget at any time, since we can help them gain great power, we can also destroy it, so that we can not be afraid of the soul reviver in future tasks."
When Xing Wei heard this, he was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and said in shock: "Dad, what did you say......? It's our ...... Giving?".
Xing Tian said indifferently: "We don't have such thorough skills, but the master has, and it is the honor of our family to be loyal to the master."
Xing Wei said almost with difficulty: "Dad, do you know what the soul resurrector feeds on?"
"Living people," Xing Tian said disapprehantly.
Xing Wei almost choked up and continued: "You know that they feed on living people, and you have to help make them, Dad, I don't believe you are this kind of person."
Xing Tian's face was gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "We have a longer life than ordinary people, a more comfortable life than ordinary people, and a stronger physique and exercises than ordinary people, all of which are given by the master, and it is only natural that we serve the master."
Xing Wei choked with tears in her eyes, she couldn't believe it, since she was a child, although her father was strict and harsh, he had never done anything hurtful, and he often warned their brothers and sisters to be kind and helpful. Such a kind-hearted person is actually the initiator of the root of all evil. Tears kept pouring out of his eyes. Xing Wei trembled and asked, "Who is the master?"
Xing Tian's attitude changed suddenly: "You haven't reached the qualifications to serve the master yet, if you're okay, go back, I don't want to tell you more, your task now is to continue to work hard to cultivate, and when you reach the transformation stage, you will naturally have a place to use your strength." Xing Tian said and went back to the room without saying a word.
Xing Wei walked out of his father's house, already in tears. He could never have imagined that the demons in the world had something to do with his father. After thinking about it for a while, he picked up his mobile phone and dialed Xing Lin's number.
"Brother, how did the soul resurrection come about, why is it related to my father, as you in the early stage of transformation, you won't know anything, right?" Xing Wei asked straight to the point.
Xing Lin's embarrassed voice came from there: "Ah, slightly, why don't you sleep so late?
"Answer my question," Xing Wei asked insistently.
Xing Lin said helplessly: "My father's request is for me to find out the soul resurrectors and supervise them to eat nine hundred and eighty-one living people, the sooner the better, I don't know anything else."
Xing Wei said self-deprecating in tears: "It turns out that not only do you know all this, but you all know it, just I am in the dark, and it's ridiculous that I'm still trying my best to get rid of the soul resurrectors, which is really causing trouble for the family."
Xing Lin heard Xing Wei's cry, his heart ached, and he hurriedly comforted: "We are also for your good, we have lost our mother since we were children, it was my father who brought us up, my father knows that you are kind-hearted, and he is afraid that speaking out will delay your cultivation, so he has been unwilling to tell you, you are almost in the yuan fetal period, and you are also qualified to know the truth." This is the responsibility of our family for generations, Weiwei, you must not look down on your brother and father, if you don't want to be a wicked person, my brother will do it, okay? I just ask you to be safe and healthy."
"I don't want to hear you say that anymore, you hate you". Xing Wei cried and hung up the phone, and casually pulled Xing Lin's number into the blacklist.
......
The heavy snow did not stop all night, Xing Wei got into the car, grasped the steering wheel with both hands, stepped on the accelerator on his feet, and the tears in his eyes flowed down like beads with broken threads. Suddenly, Xing Wei thought of someone, someone who could stand in front of her without regard for her own life when her life was in danger.
As the phone beeped a few times and waited for the tone to ring, a clean voice came.
"Officer Xing, it's so late, what's the matter" Chu Lin's voice floated.
"Chu Lin, I want to see you, now," Xing Wei said with a choked voice.
When Chu Lin heard Xing Wei with a crying voice, he more or less guessed some clues, and then responded: "Okay, I'll go out right now."
"I'm waiting for you at the door of your company" Xing Wei hung up the phone and stepped on the accelerator in her tear-blurred vision.
Chu Lin lifted his clothes, looked at the fat man who was sleeping like a "dead pig", shook his head helplessly, and walked out of the dormitory door.
Chu Lin came to the door of the company and saw the slender figure from a distance, standing alone in the heavy snow, which made people feel a little distressed.
Chu Lin sped up and came to Xing Wei and comforted, "What's wrong?"
When Xing Wei lifted the pretty face, he was already in tears, and after looking at Chu Lin, he didn't say anything, and threw himself into Chu Lin's arms and cried bitterly.
Although it was already a cold winter season, because the two of them were too ordinary, they didn't wear too much, at this time Chu Lin could feel the tenderness on Xing Wei's chest, he didn't dodge this time, hugged Xing Wei into his arms, and said comfortingly: "Cry, just cry."
Xing Wei, who couldn't cry, said intermittently: "We...... Home, it's all bad...... People, I'm ...... , me too, reincarnation...... of the ...... Relating to us, we ...... All damn it".
Chu Lin patted Xing Wei lightly and comforted: "Silly girl, don't talk nonsense, even if everyone in the world is a bad person, I believe that you are not." ”
Xing Wei broke free from Chu Lin's arms, looked at Chu Lin's face with two big tearful eyes and said, "Really, even if the whole world is a bad person, I am also a good person in your eyes?"
Chu Lin's smile was very serene, and he looked at Xing Wei's eyes and said, "What I said is from my heart." As he spoke, he pointed to his chest.
Xing smiled, this time his smile was mixed with something called happiness, stretched out his hands around Chu Lin's waist, and hugged him again.
"What you said, you can't regret it, whoever regrets it is a puppy." Xing Wei was buried in Chu Lin's arms, with a pair of big eyes still stained with tears, and said with a smile.
Chu Lin was carried away by this sudden sense of happiness, and instantly felt that the snowy night in winter turned out to be so beautiful, hugged the big beauty in his arms tightly and said: "In order not to be a puppy, I can only keep my promise."
In the middle of the winter night when the snow is flying, the falling snow floating on the ground is swirled by the cold north wind, and under the street lamp at the entrance of the old factory, the two people hug each other tighter and tighter, warming each other in this cold winter, and comforting each other's hot hearts.
