Obsessive hunting Ⅰ
Chapter 21 The Death of the Mayor
The young mother's name was Liu Ruyan, and she was as her name suggests, with picturesque eyebrows, gentle and beautiful eyes.
She invited Li Yunsheng and Qi Mo to sit at home, make tea and prepare pastries, and said that if the two of them don't dislike it, they can stay in the guest room temporarily. After all, her husband passed away early, and she and her two children have always lived here without relatives. Friends, the room has been vacant for a long time.
Li Yunsheng discussed with Qi Mo in a low voice: "She is a widow, and we two big men live in her guest room, will it damage her reputation?"
"That's what I said, but do you think there are other people in this town who are willing to take us in?" Qi Mo chuckled, "You are the one who contradicted the mayor in public, and you want to intercept the boy who was sent to the temple Virgin, trying to destroy the peace of Youlong Town."
"...You are so yin and yang, just strangle you to death."
Having said that, Li Yunsheng also knew in his heart that what Qi Mo said was true, they couldn't go anywhere except Liu Ruyan's house - and after the two children were secretly released at night, there might be nowhere to go .
Xuese stood on the table, pecking at the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and suggested by the way: "You two also ask her, what kind of evil happened in Youlong Town, so that you have to use virgin boys and girls Go to the temple? Which temple? I really want to see it."
Then she heard footsteps from outside the house, and quickly gave up the sweet-scented osmanthus cake and flew back to Li Yunsheng's shoulder, pretending that nothing happened.
Liu Ruyan's slender figure quickly appeared at the door, holding two bowls of steaming egg noodles with an apologetic smile on her face.
"There is nothing at home to entertain guests, please don't take offense."
Qi Mo smiled politely: "Where is Mrs. Liu, this is already very disturbing, thank you very much."
"Speaking of which, I should thank you." Liu Ruyan sat at the table, raised her hand to tuck a lock of messy hair behind her ear, and sighed quietly, "In this town, no one cares about us orphans. The widowed mother's life and death, using young children to sacrifice to the temple, such a cruel thing, they will not feel the same at all-but you have met me by accident, but you are willing to lend a helping hand, it is my blessing."
Li Yunsheng frowned: "The key is, why did they use young children to worship the temple? Is it a tradition in your town, or was it caused by some accident?"
"Youlong Town didn't have a tradition of worshiping temples before."
"That is to say, some strange things did happen in the town, and the mayor had no choice but to sacrifice to the temple to keep it safe?"
Liu Ruyan nodded sadly: "That's right, recently, there have been a series of bizarre deaths in the town, and they all lost their lives after going to Youlong Temple to worship. It is said that evil spirits are at work, so..."
"Evil ghosts?" Li Yunsheng smiled casually, "If this is the case, it will be very easy."
"how do I say this?"
He said: "We specialize in subduing ghosts." Then he saw Qi Mo put the eggs in the bowl to himself, and the latter looked as calm as water, didn't look at him, and continued to eat his own noodles.
Liu Ruyan was surprised: "Do you know spells?"
"What's so strange about that? It's our profession."
Resting her slender fingers on the corner of the table and slowly closing them, she lowered her eyes and asked softly: "Then...can you... help solve the disaster in Youlong Town?"
"Of course." Li Yunsheng raised his eyebrows angrily, and answered decisively, "You can't eat your dinner for nothing. If there are really unclean things in Youlong Town, I will definitely deal with them before leaving, so as not to cause any future troubles."
Liu Ruyan nodded slightly, she didn't say anything more, she just sat quietly aside, and after the two finished eating, she took the noodle bowl to wash.Li Yunsheng was silent for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to touch the cigarette, but then he thought it was someone else's house, and he hesitated to put his hand down halfway.
Qi Mo said in a warm voice: "Then go outside and smoke, I will accompany you."
"...You are the smart one."
The two of them greeted Liu Ruyan, and walked out leisurely, and when they turned around, they saw that Xue Se was coming late, it turned out that they took a piece of melon seed cakes on the table.
Xuese sighed: "I don't like sweet food very much, there is no meat."
Li Yunsheng suddenly felt annoyed and amused: "Be patient for two days, when this matter is settled, I will bake it for you."
"Okay, then let's make a quick decision. It's already full moon, shouldn't it be time to find those two children?" She flew higher and looked into the distance, "I'm basically sure The direction of that temple, since it is called Youlong Temple, should also be considered a landmark building in this town—do you want to take a look?"
"Anyway, we have to go sooner or later. If the child is there, it will save us a lot of time."
Qi Mo ignited a cluster of tiny flames at his fingertips, helped him light the cigarette, and calmly responded: "Yes, let's go now."
Li Yunsheng gave him a half-smile and a half-smile look: "Yo, light my cigarette with the red lotus fire, and I'm not afraid of ruining my life."
"Who dares to shorten your life, you can live a long life."
"Leverage your auspicious words, even if you live a long life, it may not be a good thing."
The two walked slowly, and the snow followed closely behind against the night wind. She stared at their young backs, her dark eyes shining silently under the moonlight, revealing a calm temperament that was completely different from the usual.
She whispered to herself: "It's good to live a long life."
Otherwise, I will experience a long time without aging, and I don’t know how lonely I will be.
But soon, such a quiet and harmonious scene was broken. Just before arriving at Youlong Temple, Li Yunsheng heard the cry of a child.
The two suddenly ran away, unexpectedly they were still a step late, but it was not the siblings, but the mayor who had the accident.
The moonlight was shining brightly on the mayor's blood-stained corpse. The strong contrast created a desolate and terrifying atmosphere for no reason. The mayor's body was full of torn wounds, his throat was scratched, and he was still wide open before he died. His eyes looked up to the sky, his expression extremely horrified.
The two children were tied at the gate of Youlong Temple, and they were frightened and howling. Li Yunsheng went over to untie their ropes, and raised his hands to cover their eyes.
"Hey, don't look."
Qi Mo squatted next to the mayor's body, looking thoughtful, but before he could say anything, he heard the sound of chaotic footsteps getting closer and closer, it was the mayor's gang of copycats who came.
Seeing this situation, the leader's eyes were tearing apart, he pointed at the two and shouted angrily: "You actually killed the mayor?!"
Li Yunsheng ignored him, and just pushed the two children on the shoulders, signaling that the elder brother and the younger sister should hurry home to find Liu Ruyan.Seeing the children running farther and farther, the group of people wanted to chase after them, Qi Mo's figure flashed, and his clothes fluttered in front of them.
"Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient."
"You killed the mayor, and you let go of the boys and girls for the temple, and told us to be safe?!"
Li Yunsheng leaned against the wall, and asked lazily: "I want to say that we didn't kill people, do you believe it?"
"It's just the two of you here, the evidence is solid, who are you talking nonsense to!"
"Okay." He snuffed out the cigarette casually, and sneered, "We killed the man, what's the matter?"
She invited Li Yunsheng and Qi Mo to sit at home, make tea and prepare pastries, and said that if the two of them don't dislike it, they can stay in the guest room temporarily. After all, her husband passed away early, and she and her two children have always lived here without relatives. Friends, the room has been vacant for a long time.
