death of mountain god

A rain that lived up to everyone's expectations kicked off, Zhou Li opened his black cloth umbrella, lightly slid Shen Yuntan's elbow, and put the person under the umbrella.

Although the two are about the same height, they are both broad-shouldered and long-legged. They can barely keep their hair dry when they are squeezed together. Fortunately, it is only a light rain, and the sleeves will not be drenched. Zhou Li took pleasure in bitterness: "If I Will I wash my hair with my skateboard now?"

Shen Yuntan saw that he was calm and focused on hiding from the rain, so he forced himself to ignore the constant physical contact between the two of them. He looked aside: "Yes, look at that kid running all over the street with an umbrella and getting wet all over."

Zhou Li followed his gaze, and there should have been a red scarf made of hard gauze floating on the child's chest, but now it was dangling around his neck with water, and he almost didn't recognize it at first glance.

After walking to the door of the teahouse for a few minutes, the phone in Zhou Li's trouser pocket vibrated suddenly. He reached out to open the door and let Shen Yuntan go in first: "It seems that there is a call, I will be there later."

Open it and see that it is a text message, the sender Chen Heng: Be careful with Shen Yuntan, something is wrong with him.

Zhou Li leaned on the stone lion under the eaves, trying to figure out what Shen Yuntan was thinking. It would make sense to say that the mountain ghost met by chance. He has excellent mental and physical qualities, and there is no problem with being calm in life. The pounce was a bit unexpected, but if people fell in love with me at first sight, it would explain everything. Thinking of this, he seemed to feel that his face was a little thicker, so he quickly stopped.

How about assuming that it was an artificial acquaintance from the beginning?From the mountain ghost to the third lady, even trying to get involved in two strange things, it must be a conspiracy, no matter what, let him be suspicious first, if this is really a scheming character, then you can see it for yourself Lost eyes.

Before leaving, Police Officer Zhao repeatedly urged: "Call as soon as there is news, life is at stake."

Chen Heng always felt that he was not at ease. Third Sister Zhao had done her duty for so many years, so there was no reason for her to make such a move.

As soon as Police Officer Zhao left, Shen Yuntan stepped on the threshold again: "Boss Chen, you're here to bother me again."

"Yo, are you thinking about my two taels of beef noodles? Come on, come on, I really like that I can give you a card, two packs of tea and rice." Chen Heng rolled his eyes in his heart, and spent the whole afternoon drooling, refusing to let it go. He stopped.

He didn't think that Shen Yuntan was the one who did the harm, after all, his looks were there, and he could earn a living by his looks, so why bother trying to discredit him, but it was always right to persuade Zhou Li to be more careful.

Boss Chen touched his non-existent beard and sighed: "It's raining, there are so many things to do."

Hearing what he meant, Shen Yuntan simply reported his family name: "Boss Chen, I actually came here for something. I have a friend who is in charge of these things. Please ask me to follow up."

I don't think it's reliable to say it out loud, so entrust him with an idler to help?I just hope that Boss Chen doesn't think too much about it.

When Chen Heng heard it, most of them believed it, because the relevant department has always been like this. The little girl serving tea and water can be sent to help, and he is not afraid of someone's life. His words are thorny: "This person is expensive. If you have self-knowledge, if you are not on this path, then don’t work around, it’s useless.”

Shen Yuntan smiled kindly: "Who asked me to go out and get to know Zhou Li, whether he is or not, this work will all fall on me."

Chen Hengpin felt a little helpless, he had been assigned anyway, and it would not be a problem if he followed him for a while, he showed sympathy: "It's not easy, follow us when the time comes, don't act prestige just because you have practiced a few times , this business is not dealing with people."

Zhou Li habitually listened to a few words in the corner, then pushed the door open and walked in: "Why, Lao Chen, did you give Amway your membership card again?"

Chen Heng sneered: "This card is beneficial."

I haven't heard of any card benefits, so Zhou Yue rolled his eyes at him: "No, just charge it to my account directly, can the savior cheat?"

Shen Yuntan naturally refused: "It's good to have a heart, it's nothing."

Is it because it's easy and why it's nothing?Or is it nothing because it's him?Zhou Li thought about it, and directly chose the latter to explain, and he said with a smile: "That's not okay, at worst, please come back."

As he spoke, he glanced at the big clock in the room: "It's almost time, let's go meet Third Sister Zhao and see what's going on."

A few steps away from the road, there is no need to open an umbrella, Walnut and Chen Yuan are turning into children and trying hard at the black and white chessboard. Chen Heng closed the door and went out after telling them.

Pinching Third Sister Zhao to close the stall, Zhou Li just saw off the last customer, and Zhou Li bowed in a dignified way: "Third Lady, I have been taken care of for these few years."

Third Sister Zhao was quite disdainful: "What are you doing with me, have you seen few living fossils?"

You are the only one who has really lost your life, Zhou Li really wanted to ask her if she was tired from living, but unfortunately she couldn't make a simple statement, so she brought up the matter of Jia Shihua instead: "What did the businessman surnamed Jia do? I also trouble you to clean him up."

"What did I do?" Third Sister Zhao had a half-smile, and then squinted at Chen Heng, "I also found an old Wutong as a helper, can I still bully you at such an old age?"

Chen Heng was not convinced when he heard the words: "Who is old? Do you want to count my annual rings and compare my age?"

Zhou Li really wanted to be prepared, and pulled Chen Heng's sleeve to tell him to shut up: "What do you count, I have never seen you so angry in front of the police."

"Are you planning to demolish the bridge before crossing the river?" This guy, especially sharp-tongued, grunted and took a few steps back at the critical moment.

Third Sister Zhao cooked a pot of Potatoes, Green Peppers and Chicken Pot on the stove. She thought it was almost time, so she walked over to pick up the pot and put it on a plate. No more, no less, just enough for four people.

Zhou Li beat his heart: "You are... you knew we were coming?"

Third Sister Zhao gathered the shawl on her body: "If you walk a lot at night, even if you can't hit a ghost, you can still find out the pits on the road."

Chen Heng interjected: "One size counts for one size, don't put age on him."

Third Sister Zhao remained calm: "I didn't move people."

At this moment, Shen Yuntan still remembers not to show his head, and sits there eating quietly like an invisible person.

Zhou Li observed his words and deeds, and decided that this matter had something to do with Zhao Sanjie.

"A big living person is gone with you. You have to give an explanation to the police. The relatives are fine. Crying is better than smiling. I probably hope that he will not go back so that he can inherit the inheritance."

Third Sister Zhao took a glass of water and gently put it on the dining table: "He looks exactly like Ji He, but I know it's not him."

Zhou Li was stunned for a moment, sometimes coincidences can be man-made, if Jia Shihua is not Zhao Jihe, then why would he come all the way to see Third Sister Zhao?

Just about to raise a question, Third Sister Zhao pressed her hand, signaling him to be calm and calm.

"The appearance and memory will change, but the nature will not. When I see him, I feel uncomfortable all over. With Ji He's appearance, his eyes and posture are completely different."

Zhou Li asked: "Then did you treat him..."

Third Sister Zhao frowned: "The sudden disappearance of Jia Shihua you saw was indeed my fault."

Everyone stopped and looked at her.

Chen Heng was agitated, hoping that Third Sister Zhao would not do anything to this person.

Third Sister Zhao looked at them expectantly, and said frankly: "At that time, he disappeared because I wanted to ask him something. After all, it is hard to believe that it was a pure coincidence."

Zhou Li nodded and continued to listen to her.

"But when I picked up the wooden horse, it was empty." Third Sister Zhao paused at this point, looking at their reactions, "I won't miss it. It's empty. This person is a fake, or this person has been helped by an expert."

Her face was very calm, but there was some vague doubts in her tone: "At that time, I immediately realized that I was being played by someone, and I was thinking about who I had offended. Believe it or not, I can't take it anyway. come out."

The room was silent.

Shen Yuntan leaned on the back of the chair and sighed: "You have such an empty mouth and white teeth, what can we do if we don't believe it?"

Third Sister Zhao seemed to have just noticed him, and gave him a meaningful look: "It's not the old monk's way to beat him up. Even if Zhou Li can't help it, can't you do it?"

Shen Yuntan regretted talking too much, but said vaguely: "I'm just here to help, what can I do?"

Chen Heng suddenly stretched out his hand to Third Sister Zhao: "Where's the wooden horse? Let me try."

It is said that when a person dies, the last afterimage will be left on the retina. This is purely human imagination like other urban legends, but Zhao Sanjie’s Trojan horse is not human. Not only does it have the last afterimage, but the degree of restoration is quite high .

Zhou Li sighed, the handling of abnormal events often encountered such things, no wonder they insisted on enlisting the old monk to help them do things.

Chen Heng was holding the wooden horse with the black stone inlaid in its eye, and he threw a pair of glasses to Zhou Li for him to see for himself.

The lens looks transparent and flat, but the light in the room is dim, but the sun is hot behind the lens.

At first it was like a colorful silent film, chaos was just beginning, the world of Trojan horses was much simpler than that of people, suddenly there was a little Taoist priest in the corner, and after a while, the little Taoist priest was sent out by a young man again, Zhou Li recalled Jia Shihua’s life In the photo, the appearance is [-]% similar, this should be Zhao Jihe from that year.

As soon as the little Taoist left, the wooden horse returned to chaos, but it wasn't empty, the whole space was filled with light gray thick fog, rolling like boiling in the small space.

Chen Heng shouted hastily: "It's here, look carefully."

The dense fog gradually dispersed, and the scene in front of me should be at noon the day before yesterday. The wooden horse faithfully recorded the surrounding scene, zooming in on the face of Third Sister Zhao, the palm with clear texture, and Jia Shihua who just broke into the store.

The angle of view was much clearer than that of the camera. He saw Jia Shihua standing at the door, taking the burrito from the clerk with one hand, did this happen?Zhou Li recalled the video and looked at the location where the action took place. It happened to be in the blind spot of the camera, and he suddenly realized.

After taking a bite of the burrito, Jia Shihua disappeared on the spot. At the same time, his miniature figure appeared in the belly of the Trojan horse. Third Sister Zhao painted the color paint nonchalantly, as if nothing had happened to her.

No one noticed what happened here, but maybe it just turned a blind eye, and people don't pay much attention to a strange tourist.

Afterwards, everything went on as usual, most people came and went in a hurry, waited in a long line for their share, and then left happily. He even saw Chen Heng lying on a rocking chair basking in the sun until the sun went down. However, got into the inside of the Trojan horse.

Jia Shihua had been unconscious for a long time, sleeping in the belly of the wooden horse turned upside down, disturbed by this black shadow, he suddenly woke up, he looked around nervously, it was not pitch black, the light was faintly shining through the thin wooden shell Looking at the mouth shape, it seems to be shouting, but unfortunately, he is small, so he probably can't shout much, and the noise outside makes him completely ignored.

The accident happened at this moment. The black shadow was lurking somewhere. At this moment, it quickly covered the inner wall of the wooden horse like countless small black snakes, covering the light and shadow.

After a while, the black shadow dissipated and the wooden horse was empty.
