The economic development in recent years has led to the influx of a large number of foreigners in Beijing. Under such circumstances, the original education and housing resources are somewhat insufficient.

As the best school in Beijing, Shiyi High School, in order to accommodate more students, the principal decided to expand the campus and build another teaching building and student dormitory building.

Shiyi High School has a cooperative project with the Beijing Municipal Education/Education Bureau, so this school is not something the principal can expand as it says it can.Basically, the first high school in the city absorbs the outstanding children of migrant workers from all over the city and the children of some local high-ranking officials, so it enjoys great convenience from the listing of teaching resources in the first high school.

The expansion plan was handed up layer by layer until it reached the hands of the leaders of the education/education/bureau, and was quickly stamped with a red stamp and passed back.Subsequently, Shiyigao released bidding information, attracting companies from all over the country to bid.

Originally, Fuhai Real Estate, where Lu Heng works, got the plan for this project, but because of a series of scandals and Fuhai Real Estate was merged into state-owned Fuhai Real Estate, the expansion project of Shiyigao was put on hold again.

It was hard to wait until the year passed, and finally another company with a reputation in Beijing and strong financial resources took over the job. However, it was only the first day when construction started, and a series of strange things happened.

First of all, the mountain must be dug before the school can be built.The construction team first removed all the guardrails around Guimu Mountain, and then dispatched bulldozers and excavators to level part of the hillside.

It was fine in the morning, but at night, the technicians of the bulldozers and excavators went crazy for no reason. They ran to the construction site naked with iron basins in their hands, knocking and dancing, and said "uh la la" in their mouths. talking nonsense.

Moreover, the dug ground kept bubbling red liquid every night, and the entire construction team that contracted the project was panicked.But the delivery date was fixed, and since they took over the job, they couldn't quit, let alone postpone it, so the foreman on the construction site suppressed all these things and continued to start construction.

Shiyi Gao faced the bridge, and behind it was a barren mountain.This mountain has no name. Because the mountain road is rugged, it is usually cordoned off to prohibit students or tourists from climbing the mountain.In Beijing, where every inch of land is extremely expensive, it is not that no one wants to take advantage of this piece of land and turn it into a tourist attraction.But regardless of whether the school agrees or not, as long as the boss sends someone to inspect the situation, there will always be one or two accidents.These accidents were not serious, either they stepped on the air and accidentally broke their heads, or their legs were broken by rubble falling from the top of the mountain.

Over time, there have been rumors that the barren mountain behind Shiyigao is "cursed". Some people also named this mountain "Ghost Mother Mountain" because a daring hiker once climbed over the guardrail. However, the next day, he stumbled down the mountain in a mad manner, still shouting, "There are ghosts, there are ghosts, women, women..."

The name of "Ghost Mother Mountain" spread like this.

Even more coincidentally, in terms of geographical location, Guimu Mountain and Xishan happen to be facing each other. Xishan is home to rich and powerful people, and it is a veritable holy mountain. This further shows that Guimu Mountain is not auspicious. of.

However, the principal of City No. [-] High School didn't take these rumors to heart, and people with a little knowledge thought it was nonsense.

The construction team in charge of the expansion project is a team from other places, and has never heard of the story of Ghost Mother Mountain, so the foreman has the courage to suppress the matter privately.

But maybe it was really a ghost, and after only a week of digging, a big accident happened on the construction site.

The technicians who operated the excavator changed one after another. The one who came to work today was still a stunned young man. He got up from the bed and put on his cotton clothes when it was just dawn and went to the construction site.

He started operating before he was fully awake. There were no workers around, and he was not afraid of accidentally injuring others due to operating mistakes.

"Huh? What is this?" Bored, he manipulated the excavator to dig down and forward a little bit, but he didn't see what was dug out.It's just that when I just stepped on the shovel, I suddenly felt some resistance. I couldn't get rid of it after shaking the joystick a few times. I lowered my head and took a closer look...

Cold sweat broke out from behind in an instant.

There were human corpses scattered all around, some of which he couldn't even tell if they were corpses, because their faces were still intact and not decomposed, and the clothes on their bodies only had some soil stains, which looked very new.

And the resistance he felt just now was the clothes of one of the half-buried corpses.

"Ah!!!!" He didn't know how many corpses he had dug up unconsciously, his hands trembled, and the half of his body was pulled out from the ground while hanging on the teeth in front of the bulldozer.

The dead body was hanging on the bulldozing blade facing the people in the cab, separated only by a layer of glass.Its face was already festered, and a group of bugs were constantly wriggling on it, burrowing in and out from its eye sockets and mouth.The two sleeves of the corpse were all empty, and it was actually wearing a school uniform. The whole body was dangled by the wind and hung on it, as if it had come to life.

The driver fainted from fright, and was not discovered by other workers until working hours.

With so many corpses, the foreman couldn't suppress them even if he wanted to.The news spread quickly, and the reporters from all walks of life were the first to arrive at the scene, scrambling to send out newsletters, and soon the whole city of Beijing knew that a pile of corpses had been dug up in the barren hills behind Shiyi High School, and the whole city of Beijing was plunged into chaos. In a panic.

The case was serious, Zhang Ju directly ordered Du Bo's criminal police brigade, and all members rushed to the scene immediately.

"Serial murder/person/criminal", "revenge/revenge/society", "criminals fleeing from other provinces"... all kinds of keywords appear on the hot searches on the Internet in turn, and the most discussed one is "foreign".

"It must have been done by criminals from outside!"

"In the past few years, there were no major incidents here. In the past few years, there have been more migrant workers, and everything has happened."

"Expel them!"

Du Bo led the criminal police brigade and the investigation team led by Qi Pingwen blocked the scene and counted the dead bodies together.The on-site forensic appraisal was carried out by Qi Pingwen's forensic doctor, and Du Bo led Ji Xuanjing and Qi Pingwen to conduct a preliminary discussion on the scene.

"At least there are dozens of them."

"There are too many and it's too concentrated."

Both of them couldn't help thinking of the possibility of serial killing/person/criminal, and this might be the place where the criminal/person threw his body.

Qi Pingwen looked back at the school behind him: "The school has such a large traffic flow, how can it be possible to hide it from anyone?"

"There are still students in the corpse." Du Bo watched the corpses being carried out one after another.

"I haven't received any large-scale reports of missing people here. What about your side?"

"No." Du Bo frowned.With such a large number of dead, it is also an extremely time-consuming and labor-intensive task to confirm their identities.

"That's strange." Qi Pingwen saw Feng Feiyi helped carry the last corpse, and hurriedly went up to him, took out a wet tissue from his pocket, took his hand, and wiped it one by one.

Feng Feiyi shook off Qi Pingwen's hand impatiently: "It's not from the little girl's house, what are you wiping?"

Qi Pingwen is a model of contemporary tracheitis. Hearing what Feng Feiyi said, he immediately stopped and threw the wet wipes into the trash bag.

Du Bo watched with toothache, but Ji Xuanjing poked her head behind him and watched with gusto.

"It's very dark and ghostly, but I can't find the source." Ji Xuanjing said, grabbing Du Bo's sleeve.

"I see." Du Burton felt powerless, was it a good thing done by ghosts again.If it is a human, he can still be useful, but he is really powerless in the face of illusory ghosts.

Because there were too many corpses, the police station sent four forensic doctors to help deal with the scene, but it was a pity that Cheng Xixi was not there.

After the four forensic doctors counted the corpses and sorted out their preliminary conclusions, one of the oldest forensic doctors came to report to Du Bo and Qi Pingwen.

"A total of 45 corpses were temporarily excavated, and the time span of death was extremely large. The earliest time of death could not be judged at the scene, and the latest time of death was around 19 o'clock last night."

"What?" Du Bo and Qi Pingwen frowned at the same time, and their expressions became more and more serious.

"temporary?"

"Yes." The old forensic doctor couldn't bear it after seeing so much of the world. "This is just the first pit. During the cleaning just now, it was found that there should be more corpses buried next to it."

Only Ji Xuanjing fell into deep thought after hearing this sentence. 4545, Zedicui, and his reign time, could this be a coincidence?

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Ji Xuanjing hadn't spoken much, Du Bo gestured to Qi Pingwen and led Ji Xuanjing away from the scene, squatting in front of him and looking up into his eyes.

"It's nothing, I just think it's a bit of a coincidence." Ji Xuanjing held Du Bo's face with both hands, and lowered her head to touch his forehead.

"You've been a little restless recently. Is there anything you can't tell me?" Du Bo took his hand and rubbed his fingers on the back of his hand to comfort him.

"No." Ji Xuanjing was at war in his heart, he didn't want Du Bai to think about the past, but he also didn't want to keep things in his heart like before and drift away from Du Bai.He didn't want to lie to him again.

"Do you believe that I have lived for a thousand years?" A trembling voice came out of his throat, Ji Xuanjing took his hand out of Du Bo's palm, and turned his head away not daring to look at Du Bo.

Youkai who have lived for thousands of years, and their bodies that will never age or die, everyone will be afraid.

"I believe it." Du Bo stepped forward and straightened Ji Xuanjing's head, pinching his chin so that he had to look up at himself.

"It's just such a small thing, you kept it from me for so long?" After speaking, Du Bo kissed him hard.

That would explain it.Why does his Ji Xuanjing know nothing about modern times, like a person who traveled from ancient times; why his Ji Xuanjing would tell such a sad story when drunk; why his Ji Xuanjing would always blurt out another person's name; why He could identify the Phoenix Seal at a glance, but he hesitated about its origin.

No matter what Ji Xuanjing is, his heart will not change.This is his person, his lover.
