"What did you burn it with?" "King Kong Cannon walked over and looked at Shao Yanqi's mottled hair, "The flamethrower must not only burn like this." ”

"I didn't see it clearly, it came out all of a sudden," Shao Yanqi shook his head and said, "We were burned without even seeing their appearance." ”

"In this case, you first tell me what happened, and let's analyze what the situation is together. I said to Shao Yanqi.

"Old Yu, let's eat first, I haven't eaten seriously for a few days. The King Kong Cannon put down his luggage.

A moment later, the group arrived at the restaurant downstairs.

"Section Chief Yu, how much is the subsidy for your three sections a day?" Chen Mingqiang looked at the meat dishes ordered by the King Kong Cannon and was very smacked.

"Like you, it's one hundred and two. King Kong Cannon warmly beckoned everyone to start moving chopsticks.

"Then why are you willing to eat so well?" Chen Mingqiang said distressedly.

"Xiao Chen, where is your Taoist temple?" I looked at Chen Mingqiang suspiciously, the current monks and Taoist priests are richer than the working masses, especially after having Taoism, it is easier to make money. But looking at Chen Mingqiang's appearance, it seems that he has been living a hard life.

"My home is in Yuanling, Hunan, and the Taoist temple has long been gone. Chen Mingqiang shook his head and replied, his expression gloomy.

"What about the Taoist temple?" I asked, the Taoist temple is the nest of the monks, and the Taoist without the Taoist temple cannot hold up his head among his fellow Taoists.

"A few years ago, it was taken back by the county, saying that we were a cult. Chen Mingqiang is young, and when he said this, he showed a sad expression.

"Isn't it back to go on a tour?" King Kong Cannon distributed the Buddha jumping over the wall brought by the waiter to everyone.

"How do you know?" Chen Mingqiang looked up at the King Kong Cannon, obviously guessed by the King Kong Cannon.

"Our Taoist temple was also taken back, but our brothers bought it back. King Kong Cannon smiled and stretched out two fingers, "It cost 200 million before and after!"

"Where did you get so much money?" Chen Mingqiang was dumbfounded.

"I can't tell you this, eat first, the dishes are cold. King Kong Cannon said and picked up the little urine jar.

The taste of Handan's food is similar to that of Shandong, which is more in line with our appetite, while Chen Mingqiang and Shao Yanqi don't eat much, and a bottle of Dan wine makes King Kong Cannon drink all the time.

"Xiao Chen, what skills do you all have, let's hear it. "King Kong picks his teeth with a toothpick.

Although it is not polite to ask other people's secrets straight to the point, I also want to know what the Chenzhou faction is good at, so I didn't stop the King Kong Cannon.

"We make and use sigils. Chen Mingqiang also put down his chopsticks.

"The one written on yellow paper?" said King Kong Cannon as he stretched out his hand to draw.

"No, we rarely use paper for our talismans. Chen Mingqiang reached out and took out something from his pocket, "This is our talisman."

"What's the use of this?" I said, reaching out and taking it, a bird's bone.

"This talisman is called Eagle Wing, and it can run very fast when you hold it. Chen Mingqiang pointed to the bird bone in my hand, "This one will be given to you, but it can only be used for three days." ”

"We don't use this, thank you. I said as I returned the bird bones in my hand to him. No matter how fast the sigil is, it can't be as fast as our wind trick, and it's useless for us to keep it.

"How many talismans do you have?" asked Vajra Cannon curiously.

"One hundred and thirty-eight blood talismans, three paper talismans. Chen Mingqiang replied happily.

"What's the use?" asked King Kong Cannon again.

"Blood talismans are very useful, and paper talismans can only be used on dead people. "It is likely that some taboos of the division are involved, and what Chen Mingqiang said this time is very general.

"Can you control the corpse?" I suddenly thought of one thing, Hunan is referred to as Xiang, Yuanling County is the living area of the Miao people, and the Chenzhou faction is likely to be the Shenxi corpse chasers who are rumored to be by the outside world.

"Yes, the paper charm is used to control corpses. Chen Mingqiang nodded, it seems that I really guessed correctly.

"You have this trick, why don't you go to the mountains to make a fuss and let those guys return the Taoist temple to you?" As soon as the King Kong Cannon heard that Chen Mingqiang would control the corpse, he suddenly came to his senses.

"The Chenzhou faction has ancestral training, and it is not allowed to cast spells against innocent people. Chen Mingqiang shook his head and said.

"It's still innocent to even give you the door to occupy the nest?" King Kong Cannon was a little disdainful of Chen Mingqiang's dogmatism, "If you don't use spells, you deserve to be poor." ”

I waved my hand to stop the excesses of King Kong Pao, the current society is the majority of people like me and King Kong Pao, and there are very few people like Chen Mingqiang who abide by the ancestral teachings and live in poverty, although the doctrines of each faction are different, but I still secretly look down on their faction in my heart.

"How many people in your faction do you live on?" I looked up at Chen Mingqiang.

"Except for the master and the two uncles, there are only four people in our generation. Usually, I go to the mountains to collect medicine to help people treat diseases, but now the state does not allow burials, and the old business is useless. Chen Mingqiang's so-called old profession is likely to refer to driving out corpses.

"What are your plans for the future?" I asked with concern. Without the Taoist temple, their faction will lose its inheritance, and once the disciples are separated, the spells will soon be lost.

"The master and uncle are both old and can't go far, so several of my brothers have gone out to work to make money, and when we have enough money, we will build a Taoist temple from the back mountain. Chen Mingqiang's eyes showed a resolute look.

I've already made up my mind when I hear this, and when the matter here is settled, I'll have to give them some money and help them.

At this moment, a plump waitress in her thirties was recruited to help us fill the water with a teapot, Shao Yanqi raised his head and glanced at others casually so that the King Kong Cannon could see it, "Old Shao, you are really blessed, you can see whatever you want." ”

When I was talking to Chen Mingqiang before, the two of them were also talking, and King Kong Cannon already knew that Shao Yanqi had special functions.

"I'd rather not see it," Shao Yanqi shook his head and sighed, "All I see is flesh and bones, do you think that feels good?"

Although it was a guest house for the troops, it was also open to the local area, and at noon the number of people gradually increased, and we returned to the room.

"Lao Shao, tell me about the situation. I leaned back on the couch and lit a cigarette.

Shao Yanqi nodded and recounted the incident to me and King Kong Cannon. It turned out that the incident happened in the west mountain of this county, the name of the mountain is called the west mountain, the mountain is not high, because the country is now unified management of forestry resources, so here is no exception to recruit a few old men as forest rangers, usually it is to take care of not let the people wantonly cut down trees, winter is the high incidence of fire, but also bear the task of forest fire prevention.

Just a few days ago, when an old man patrolled the mountain, he found that there were a lot of graves behind the mountain, although the people under the mountain also have the habit of going up the mountain to bury the dead, but they have never heard of burying them in the shade, and it is unreasonable to come out so many at once, the old man felt suspicious and called a few colleagues to dig up one bravely, and there was nothing in it except ancient bricks.

A few old men were still a little knowledgeable, and knew that they might encounter thieves digging ancient tombs, so they searched everywhere, and soon found a robbery hole covered by weeds halfway up the mountain.

"Did the old men go in?" said King Kong Cannon, lighting a cigarette.

"No, they called the police," Shao Yanqi shook his head, "After receiving the report, the police came with people from the Institute of Archaeology of the Cultural Relics Bureau. ”

"And then?" I raised my hand at the cannon, who pulled out a cigarette and threw one at me.

"After the archaeological institute came, according to the ancient masonry outside, it was determined that this was an ancient tomb in the Warring States Period, and it had been obviously damaged, and it met the standards of rescue and excavation, so it organized personnel to enter the robbery hole, and the people who entered the cave quickly howled and ran out. ”

"What's wrong?" asked King Kong Cannon.

"It's similar to our situation," Shao Yanqi pointed to his hair with a wry smile, "The people who entered the cave were burned out by the fire before they even saw what was going on in the cave, and their eyebrows and hair were all burned." Later, some people wondered if there was a flammable gas similar to methane left in the tomb, but they found an instrument to check that everything was normal. ”

"And then?" I still don't know.

"Later, I sent a few people in one after another, and the result was the same, as soon as I went in, the fire ignited, and I didn't burn anything else, but burned my eyebrows and hair, and in the end I couldn't do anything at all, so I reported it to us, and Xiao Chen and I came over after receiving the notice. Shao Yanqi paused at this point.

"Are there any dead people?" I asked.

"It's not dead, but the person who stole the cave first went crazy the next day and bit people everywhere, and it was cured after Xiao Chen came. Shao Yanqi pointed to Chen Mingqiang, who was sitting on the edge of the bed.

"That person was washed away by the corpse gas, and I have used the talisman to pull out the poison for him, but unfortunately he didn't enter the tomb in the first place, so he doesn't know what is going on inside. Chen Mingqiang added.

"Old Yu, the situation here is a bit similar to the one in Xi'an. "King Kong Cannon opened his mouth to remind me.

"What's going on in Xi'an?" asked Shao Yanqi suspiciously. The colleagues of the 18th sub-bureau do not often meet with each other, and others do not know what tasks others are performing.

"What have you been doing since you came?" I didn't answer Shao Yanqi's question. I vaguely felt something strange in my mind.

"After we came, we found that things were not as simple as we thought, the sealed soil of the tomb was too thick, I couldn't see the situation inside clearly, and I set up a small altar to spy on the situation inside, but as soon as the altar was opened, a fire burst out of the thief hole, and we became like this. Shao Yanqi pointed to the little hair he had left.

"I was setting up the peep yang array, just to see if there were any living people in the tomb, and before I had time to take a closer look, the fire came out, burning me first, and Brother Shao who burned later. Chen Mingqiang added.

"Haha, what's the order of this thing?" said King Kong Cannon gloatingly.

"No, it's very strange, Brother Shao was standing in front of me at that time, and the fire burned me and then turned around to burn him. Chen Mingqiang shook his head again and again.

"Your fire will bend?" King Kong Cannon was amused by him.

"Fire can bend, you just don't know it. I looked at the King Kong Cannon solemnly, and an emaciated figure gradually appeared in my mind. It shouldn't be him after so many years, but fire is the most difficult genus of the five elements to control, and no one can control the flame unless they are born with fire.

"You don't know anything about the tomb?" I muttered for a moment before reopening my mouth.

"There are living people in the tomb, I'm sure of that. Chen Mingqiang nodded heavily

"Before the fire broke out, I heard someone talking in the tomb. Shao Yanqi also opened his mouth.

"What are you talking about?" I turned to look at Shao Yanqi.

"It was too far away for me to hear it all, only the last sentence was as urgent as the law. Shao Yanqi said.

"Isn't it Taishang Laojun?" I asked, all the three religions except Buddhism have a sentence of urgency when reciting the mantra, and if we listen to this last sentence, we can analyze which faction is against us.

"Not this, longer than this. Shao Yanqi shook his head and denied it.

"Yuqing Daojun?" I started to get nervous.

"Sort of. Shao Yanqi is not sure.

"It can't be that the Taishang Daojun is as anxious as the law, right?"

"This is it!"
