Chapter 13 Departure, Catching Ghosts in the Bungalow District
I have to say that after these things, Su Tingting took great care of Chu Lin, as if she was taking care of her younger brother, which made Chu Lin's good impression of Su Tingting suddenly warm up.
After a busy day of work, the night has begun, and everyone who gets off work is wrapped up tightly in the cold and windy winter night, and Chu Lin stands outside the subway station and waits quietly. After a while, a large fat man with a fat body walked out of the subway entrance, and his first reaction after seeing Chu Lin was a bear hug.
"Brother Lin, I want to kill you. As he spoke, he was about to bite on Chu Lin's face, but he was "scared" by Chu Lin lightly.
"Oh, Brother Lin, why did you suddenly become so strong? Little brother's body is bones, I can't help you tossing" The fat man in the words still had a pitiful taste like Lin Daiyu.
Chu Lin rudely hugged the fat man and whispered, "Do you remember what I told you last time?"
"What's the matter? Cultivating immortals? Oh, everyone, come and see, the sky is falling, the ground is sinking, the little yellow dog is gone, my eldest brother is cultivating immortals, hahahahaha" The fat man shouted with his hands dancing, like a stupid X standing up to the sky.
"You come with me, I'll tell you when you get to the dormitory" Chu Lin was silent for a while, and said in a low voice.
After entering the factory, Chu Lin put his hand on the fat man's waist and walked quickly in the dim factory street under the light mapping. The fat man felt that he was almost suspended by Chu Lin, and at this time, he was a little suspicious of some of what Chu Lin said.
Came to the downstairs of the dormitory, returned to the dormitory in three steps and two steps, and as soon as he entered the room, Chu Lin locked the door with his hand. Staring into the eyes of the fat man.
"That, Brother Lin, I'll take it off myself. You don't need to come, be gentle with me," said the fat man, pretending to be shy.
Chu Lin did not have any fluctuations in his thoughts because of the fat man's words, he recited the incantation in his heart silently, the crimson fire flashed in front of him, and the flames shone in the pupils, igniting the entire space, and the "Fire Spirit Pupil" had been quietly sacrificed.
"I'll go, Brother Lin, your contact lenses are so cool, is it a limited edition, why don't you tell your brother when you get rich" The fat man said excitedly.
Chu Lin looked at the fat man who was overly excited, and he couldn't speak for a while, and finally squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Fat man, I always thought you were a stupid coin before, I really blamed you."
In the next second, Chu Lin slowly stretched out a palm burning with demonic flames in front of the fat man.
"Haha, Brother Lin, you know it...... Okay" began to stutter in the words, this time it was the fat man's turn to be stunned, only to see the fat man staring at the crimson flame in Chu Lin's palm, his eyes staring at the boss, and his mouth couldn't close, he knew that this was not a magic trick, because he could clearly feel that the temperature coming from the flame was so strong and domineering.
"Oh ......" the fat man sighed blankly, no matter what Chu Lin said and asked, he would only say this sentence.
Chu Lin fortunately ignored the fat man, meditated on the chair and cultivated, because he didn't have to sleep, so he gave up the entire bed to the fat man.
Approximately 1 hour later......
Chu Lin: Meditate on the chair and practice with your eyes closed.
Fat Man: Sitting on the bed in a daze, muttering "Oops" from time to time.
About 3 hours later......
Chu Lin: Meditate on the chair and practice with your eyes closed.
Fat Man: Sitting on the bed in a daze, muttering "Oops" from time to time.
The next morning:
Chu Lin suddenly opened his eyes from his cultivation, and the realm of the 5 heavens in the awakening period was far better than that of ordinary people.
The fat man was lying on the bed in a demented way, with his eyes occasionally rounded, proving that he was still a living thing.
"Didn't you sleep all night?" Chu Lin asked with concern, Yang overflowing with a warm smile on his face.
"Oh......" said the fat man mechanically as if it were a repeater.
Chu Lin frowned, because his strength after awakening was much greater than that of ordinary people, he easily picked up the fat man, and without saying a word, it was directly a slap: "You are not wrong, I am not wrong, you are not dreaming, I am also very awake."
This time the fat man woke up, and quickly shook his head vigorously, stepped forward and grabbed Chu Lin and said excitedly: "Brother Lin, there are really immortal cultivators in novels in this world, can you teach me, I also want to cultivate."
Chu Lin shook his head helplessly and said: "I don't even know how I stepped into this gate, and I really can't help you awaken now, but my brother promises that as long as one day, I can touch the method, and I will definitely take you to conquer the world together."
What Chu Lin didn't expect was that a sincere promise today would become the accumulation of the invincible Three Realms in the future.
The familiar ringtone rang, Chu Lin picked up his mobile phone, and was surprised to find that the caller was the beautiful Xing Wei.
"Hello, Officer Xing," Chu Lin said jokingly.
Xing Lin's indifferent voice came from there: "Chu Lin, I have a mystery case in my hand, I suspect that it is not done by human beings, are you willing to help me? You don't have to worry about the remuneration, after the matter is completed, 1 million yuan." Pay 20 percent upfront".
Hearing this astronomical figure, Chu Lin's saliva was about to flow out, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, and Chu Lin will naturally not refuse things that are not illegal and can make money, even if there is some danger in it, but the truth of seeking wealth and danger is well known to the world, without thinking about it, Chu Lin said directly: "I am very willing to cooperate with the police, and it is the responsibility and obligation of every citizen to cooperate with the police station to assist in the investigation." Tian's shameless and unshirkable tone is vividly and vividly.
"Hey, comrade policeman, is this a bounty, why is there so much money to be made?" Chu Lin then asked suspiciously.
Xing Wei said indifferently: "You don't need to ask so much, now that you have money, do you make money?"
"Earn and earn, everything is arranged by the police comrades," Chu Lin said cheaply.
Okay, then I'll send you the information in the form of a text message, and I'll see you at 8 o'clock tonight at the agreed place.
hung up the phone and received a message from Xing Lin:
Location of the crime: The old bungalow area in the wilderness
People and events: A number of elderly people have mysteriously "disappeared", and many reports have been received, but none of them have been solved
Time: Mostly lost at night
Putting away the mobile phone, Chu Lin turned his head to look at the fat man, grabbed the fat man's round shoulders with both hands, and said excitedly: "Fat man, Xiao Yunshan, Brother Shan, Xiao Qi, we are about to live a good life, I will go out to cooperate with the police tonight, you wait for me in the dormitory, how about it."
Sure enough, when Chu Lin walked out of the dormitory, the fat man walked out after him despite the soft grinding and hard bubbles.
"When you arrive at the scene of the crime at night, you must remember not to affect our work, and when you stay still and wait, you must not run around, it is very dangerous, understand?" Chu Lin said cautiously.
The fat man's head was like a spring, and he nodded again and again and said, "I know, don't worry, Brother Lin."
"Let's go, catch ghosts in the bungalow area!" After a day of preparation, Chu Lin and the others finally set off. A confident smile blooms on the young and handsome face, and the shadow is stretched long under the sunset in winter.
The cold wind at night is always extra boning, and the sky is not beautiful, and in this area of bungalows near the middle of nowhere, it snows heavily. Heavy snow permeates this "small village", obstructing the view of people returning from the snowy night here.
A tall, thin, slender, bumpy young woman stood on the street of the bungalow area, and her pure and beautiful face could be vaguely seen through the heavy snow.
After looking at the time, at half past seven in the evening, Chu Lin should be almost there, Xing Wei thought to himself.
At the corner of the street, two tall figures arrived as promised in the wind and snow, and under the dim street lamp, Chu Lin spoke with confident steps: "Officer Xing, it's early."
Rolling his eyes at Chu Lin, Xing Wei's white face did not have any ripples, and he said in a low voice: "There is a well-known fortune teller in this bungalow area, we suspect that this case is related to it, it has been investigated clearly, there will be residents visiting tonight, we will also go in disguise as believers, remember not to reveal our identities, let alone say more, just act when we have the opportunity." ”
Chu Lin and the fat man both agreed, and then followed Xing Wei into the bungalow area. It is a village-like area, built against the backdrop of a large mountain, and all the villages are bungalows, and almost every household has a small courtyard with farm tools and livestock parked in the yard. Due to the difficulty of the country road, the lack of illumination of the street lights, and the long spacing, the three of them came to the depths of the village in the snow, with the mountains behind them, and it is said that this is the residence of the fortune teller.
From a distance, I saw that it was a relatively large temple-shaped building and a large courtyard, and a red lantern hung at the entrance of the courtyard. At this time, villagers from different directions were walking towards the courtyard.
"Today is the day when Mr. will break the bad luck for everyone for free, third sister, let's go quickly."
"Sir is really a good person, he never collects a penny for the villagers."
"The gods invited by the gentleman's house are really good, and everyone who has made a wish has come true."
"Let's go, we'll be in line again in a while."
After awakening, Chu Lin's senses were far more than ordinary people, and he could vaguely hear the villagers whispering in the wind and snow.
"Let's speed up our pace," Xing Wei said, already walking lightly to the front.
"This little girl is really amazing, walking in this heavy snow is faster than walking on the flat ground, TM evil man" The fat man lowered his voice and whispered to Chu Lin.
Hearing this, Xing Wei only turned his head slightly, ignored the fat man, and took the lead in entering the inner courtyard, followed by Chu Lin.
Entering the courtyard, a smell of incense comes from the "main hall", and the things placed in the courtyard are also plain, and the "main hall" has a very high frame and a very elegant style, and it is said that the people in the village donated the building.
The antique building, there are 2 red stone pillars at the door, and the four big characters on the top are particularly eye-catching - "Taoism and Nature".
Pushing the door into the "temple", more than a dozen older believers surrounded each other, unable to see the voice and smile of the middleman, but only heard the voice of the extraordinarily loud talking about the theory of cause and effect.
"Why does this sound familiar?" Chu Lin pondered.
In this miniature "hall", the most eye-catching thing should be the Rakshasa statue surrounded by everyone in the center. Yaksha's fangs, outward-curling nostrils, ghostly eyes with a hideous gaze, and a pair of elf-like pointed ears slanted against the ceiling. Each of the six arms holds different sharp weapons, and on the upper left arm, there is actually a sculptural head dripping with blood. The legs were not covered by robes, they were so exposed that there was nothing incongruous compared to the ragged tops. The entire statue roars with fangs.
Chu Lin and the others walked into the crowd and saw the "fortune teller" in front of them, with a pair of cloud shoes on the soles of his feet, and a clean Taoist robe that looked like a fairy style, with a low figure, dark skin, and a gray beard that looked even more charming.
"Wait, this person is so familiar, how do you look at this person in front of you, it looks like you've seen it somewhere? Doubts arose in Chu Lin's heart.
Suddenly, Chu Lin had an idea, and among the many pictures in his mind, he suddenly searched for the "takeaway brother" who knocked on the door to deliver ingredients outside the courtyard of Su Tingting's house that day.
