58: Killing Knife
"Don't you go in?"
Han Lingling followed behind Kui Lin and walked through the door of the Kui Clan's Spirit Hall, but found that Kui Lin had not entered.
"Go buy something. As Kui Lin walked along the front of the pavilion, he pulled a leaf from the rolling dragon and put it between his lips.
He looked ahead, under the street lamps that had been lit up at the entrance of the alley in the distance, there were a few old people sitting there playing cards and chess, they would not disperse until eight or nine o'clock, people were old, sometimes their tempers were more irritable, they didn't win today, they had to think about it for half the night when they went back, and they would play again tomorrow.
Passing by under a windowsill, looking up, in the night that has fallen, you can still see that there is a pot of flowers and leaves that have dried up a little, Chen Xichun lived there before, and it seems that he has left.
She can't be here all the time, and the investigation can be said to be one of the busiest units in the country.
The floor tiles under the feet are already a bit potholed, although the potholes are not deep, and a few days ago there was a vote in the community on whether to apply to the government to rebuild the road.
Because the road was paved more than 100 years ago, the result of the vote was that everyone did not agree to rebuild it, believing that it was destroying historical monuments, but for the more seriously damaged places, it could be repaired.
Han Lingling followed behind Kui Lin and walked quietly, the scene just now still lingered in her mind, that kind of weightlifting, a single firework would burn the three tenth-level powerhouses to ashes.
She suddenly felt that she was following him into history, and her heart, which had been beating fiercely, suddenly fell silent as she walked step by step.
When you come to the mouth of the alley, it is not an exit, but a central area.
There is an old alley grocery store under the street lamp, which is lit with a white energy-saving lamp, which cannot illuminate every corner, Han Lingling watched Kui Lin walk in, but felt that this place was a little more intimate and mysterious, during the day, she passed by here, but did not take a second look.
"It turns out that all the spell casting materials he needs are bought here, and he didn't go to any high-end places to buy them. Han Lingling thought in her heart.
"Uncle, do you have a murderous blade here? Kui Lin asked.
"What kind of murderous blade?" The old man walked out from behind the counter, and after hearing Kui Lin's words, he stopped and asked, "The pig killing knife has been passed down for three generations." ”
"The pig killer has no murderous intent, although the knife has been killed for a long time and has been soaked in evil spirits, but it is not too fierce, I want the real murder knife. Kui Lin said.
"There is a ghost-headed knife, which came down from the execution ground and was left behind in the former Qing Dynasty. The old man said again.
"I'll see. Kui Lin said.
The old man turned around and bent down behind the counter to pick up a long strip of cloth wrapped in it.
The cloth was a black cloth, unraveled, and inside was a handful that had been polished to a little narrow, the blade was not rusty, and it still exuded the cold light of the forest.
Kui Lin picked it up, stretched out his hand and stroked it, and said: "This is a hundred steel knives, which have killed many people, but those who kill people with knives are all acting on behalf of the Fa, this knife can be used to calm the house, and ghosts cannot invade, but it is not very suitable for me." ”
He put the knife down, but the old man seemed to suddenly think of something, and said: "A few days ago, I received a heart-cutting knife, which is a murder weapon. ”
The old man went to the back room, and after a while took out a wooden box.
Han Lingling also came over curiously to look at the things wrapped in white cloth in the wooden box, which were about longer than chopsticks.
"This knife comes from a small village in a small county town in Xijiang, a child witnessed his father being beaten to death by a neighbor's family, but was only sentenced to a few years before being released from prison, and then moved out of his hometown, and the child also died after a serious illness because he was too sad, the child grew up slowly, but he always felt that the person who killed his father should be sentenced to death, the sentence was too unfair, so he always wanted to take revenge, he hid the knife for more than 20 years, and often carried it with him. ”
More than 20 years have passed, and he is also working in the county, and the neighbor has lived for many years, and no one remembers this incident, so when he came back, on the day he came back, he was taken advantage of the night by the neighbor's child who witnessed his father being killed, turned into the neighbor's yard, and killed all the people inside, and the old people and children were not spared. ”
"This knife is fierce and ruthless. The old man said.
Han Lingling listened to it beside her, only to feel that her cold hairs stood up.
"The murderous heart is deeply hidden, and the murderous intent has been infiltrated for more than 20 years, and overnight, he is full of blood. If he only punished the evil, this knife could be enshrined in the hall, but in the end he did not even let go of children and other irrelevant people, this knife is no longer righteous, fierce and vicious, but it is suitable for me, this time, I want to use him to do something right. ”
"Xiao Linzi, what are you going to do?" said the old man with some worry.
"It's okay, I'm from the country, and what I do is, of course, is to protect people's lives and property. Kui Lin smiled and said, "How much is this knife?"
"I took 20,000 yuan, and you give 22,000 yuan. The old man said.
"Good. Kui Lin took out his mobile phone, scanned the QR code taken out by the old man, and paid the money.
Han Lingling felt that it was strange that such an old spiritual material grocery store actually had such an advanced way of collecting money.
The old man wrapped the heart-cutting knife in a white cloth and said, "I wrapped it in a white cloth in the hope that one day it will have an innocent body, you take it." ”
There is a metaphor in his words, obviously hoping that Kui Lin can use it for good.
As an old man who has sold spiritual materials all his life, he has basically been doing the business of regular customers over the years, and the goods he receives are also sent by regular customers, if a stranger suddenly comes to buy it, it is just an ordinary thing, but if he wants to buy such a murder weapon, it is impossible for him to sell it.
"Do you have that kind of stone pier here, which is popular and down-to-earth? Kui Lin asked.
The old man didn't say a word, came to the door, pointed to the stone pier where a few old people were sitting and playing cards outside, and said: "That, once topped the beam in the big house, and then sat here as a stool for more than ten years, it is a good grounding instrument, if it is not for Xiaolinzi You want, I don't want to sell." ”
In an altar, the three pillars of heaven, earth and man are the skeletons, and the ritual utensils that represent the earth often do not need to be prepared, because everyone is standing on this piece of the earth, and of course there will be people who find some ancient floor tiles to go back and spread them on the ground to represent the earth.
Kui Lin went back directly with this stone pier, which represents grounding, because it used to be a stone pier standing on the ground as a pillar of the roof house, and it has been sitting on the ground for many years, so it can be used as an instrument, and it is quite good.
"And how much is this?"
"This doesn't cost money, this is from the old marquis's house, you buy some paper money here, go to the tree over there and burn it, and tell the master's family." ”
The old Hou Ye Hou Mansion is not far from the front, and it is also one of the attractions in this alley, but this Hou Mansion has been renovated later, because most of it has collapsed, including a small vacant land that can be used as an elderly activity center, which used to be the Hou Mansion, of course, including the very old camphor.
At the base of the camphor tree, there was a groove, where there was an incense burner, and there were many burnt incense sticks, and he first lit three incense sticks, and then began to burn paper money again.
The incense mist curls, and the flame looks particularly delicate in the dark night.
Han Lingling stood there looking at Kui Lin's back, she suddenly felt that she had only walked into the mystery until this moment, the skills she had learned were very pale, she had heard that those skills could actually be upgraded through her own practice, and she also worked hard to practice, but the skill points did not increase at all.
Kui Lin's back became mysterious in her eyes.
She felt that Kui Lin was communicating with the ancient camphor tree, or rather, he was communicating with this heaven and earth.
......
After waiting for the old people to leave, Huailin hugged the stone pier and went home.
He felt the chaos boiling over the city.
As the dragon guard of Shanghai, he has the responsibility to protect the city, the world is looking at Xia Guo, Xia Guo can't mess up this internationally renowned metropolis under this kind of impact, it must be suppressed, and it must be suppressed beautifully, without traces, so that the world can't guess, but he feels the heritage and horror of Xia Guo, a magic power.
So he wanted to set up a magic circle, a magic circle not just to suppress the contract, but to put a real killing array.
Suddenly, Kui Lin stopped, and Han Lingling was about to hit Kui Lin's back, and just when she was confused, she saw a person standing there in front of her.
A fat man, a fat man wearing a pig's head mask, this pig's head mask is very tall, at least 1.9 meters, and he just stands quietly in the shadows, blocking the road.
"At night, in the deep alleys, under the light of the street lamps, I am in the dark, and you are in the light. Suddenly, a voice appeared, not the pig-headed masked man standing in the shadows in front of him.
Rather, in the back, a man in an owl mask in a black tuxedo, who didn't know when he appeared there.
"This is not your spiritual hall, your front road is blocked, the back road is broken, and there is a person who needs to be protected by your side, this is the battlefield we have set, and the 15th chief of the Great Xia Kyoto Spiritual School is going to die here today, it will definitely cause a sensation all over the world. The owl masked man stood there without moving, but his voice reached Han Lingling's ears clearly.
She knew that someone from the opposing faction in the player had appeared.
She was very confident in Kui Lin, but when she saw the owl masked man behind her who had broken off the back road, her heart trembled.
Because in the last mission, she only did a small mission, and in that plot, she had seen a person wearing an owl mask, this is a high-level player in her heart, a real boss.
In that plot world, he killed an important plot character one-on-one, and now, here he is, and he's not alone.
"What to do, what to do. Han Lingling panicked in her heart.
"Are you scared?" Kui Lin suddenly turned his head to Han Lingling and asked.
Han Lingling's teeth were trembling, and she nodded, unable to speak.
"Don't be afraid, because you are in the land of your own country, and this land is guarded, you sit here first, watch. As he spoke, he placed the stone pier in his arms in the corner of the wall beside him.
Then he untied the box of the heart-splitting knife, took out the knife inside with the white cloth, handed the box to Han Lingling, and said, "You have a good look." ”
Kui Lin returned to the middle of the alley, raised the knife wrapped in white cloth in his hand, and said: "Today, I have this family feud soaked in the heart knife for more than 20 years, and I met you, just right, the family feud should be washed with national hatred, more than a hundred years ago, your predecessors invaded this land, and today you come again, I can only honor my ancestors with your blood." ”
