Obsessive hunting Ⅰ

I clearly felt that Shengsheng's ears turned red when Brother Qi let go of his arms around his waist.The night was breezy, so to rule out the possibility of being too hot, I guess he was just shy.But I can't say this in person, otherwise, in the next few months, I won't want Shengsheng to help me with the barbecue——"Snow Color Diary"

With a cigarette in his mouth, Li Yunsheng squatted on the ground and drew talisman paper with blood. Unlike the previous basic talisman paper or advanced talisman paper, this time he drew very strange spells, which he had never drawn before.

Xue Se observed for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said, "Is it a phantom talisman? I thought no one would know this kind of magic talisman now."

"It was taught by my master. After all, my master knows everything." Li Yunsheng whispered, "Actually, my brother was better at drawing than me back then. The phantom symbols he drew were enough for a firework show."

"..." This is not easy to answer, and it is easy to arouse the sadness of the other party. Xue Se thought seriously for a while, and decided to keep silent for the time being, but secretly glanced at Qi Mo.

Qi Mo didn't seem to have heard this sentence, and said calmly: "Are you going to use the phantom talisman to scare away the group of people outside?"

Li Yunsheng nodded: "What else can I do? They are blocking it there, we can't sleep in this temple overnight, can we?"

"It's a pity that the ghost escaped just now, otherwise it could replace the role of your phantom talisman."

"Come on, I still think he's disgusting, you haven't seen the blue-faced fangs."

"I saw it." Qi Mo and Feng Jiyue replied, "If it wasn't for catching you, I might have already dealt with him by now."

Li Yunsheng immediately rolled his eyes at him: "Then you have to blame Xuese, she was the one who insisted on throwing me over."

Xuese snorted softly: "Little heartless, am I helping you?"

At the moment of this nonsense, the talisman paper was already drawn, Li Yunsheng brought the talisman paper close to the flickering cigarette flame, watched it burn halfway, and then threw it high into the sky.

The light was blown by the wind, and in the night, a ferocious grimace with white hair and red pupils appeared, almost covering half of the sky above Youlong Town's head. Not long after, there was a burst of shouting from outside the temple, followed by It was the sound of chaotic footsteps that were getting farther and farther away, which showed that this trick was very effective, defeating others without fighting.

"They probably thought it was haunted, and we both died in this temple, right?"

Qi Mo smiled and said, "It's very possible."

"In order to avoid causing another commotion, I think we should not leave the temple in a grand manner."

"Then how do you get out?"

The two looked at each other, and then simultaneously turned their gazes to Xue Se who was scratching her head with her wings.

Xue Se: "...Okay, I get it, I'll hold Shengsheng in my mouth later, brother Qi, you can grab my paw, I'll use this old bone to fly you two out."

So the next moment, I saw a certain palm-sized white bird, dragging two large living people, sneaking into the deep night sky.

When the two returned to Liu Ruyan's house with ease, they saw that Liu Ruyan was busy making porridge for the two children. When the latter heard the movement and turned around, he was startled and surprised.

"You are back?"

"...If we don't come back, we have no place to go. By the way, make sure that the children have all arrived home safely."

Her expression quickly returned to normal, she raised her hand to tuck a lock of messy hair behind her ear, and smiled gently: "The children told me that it was you who came to the rescue in time, and the mayor... "

Qi Mo said warmly, "That's right, he's dead."

"Do you know who killed it?"

"Unfortunately, the townspeople in Youlong Town now think that we were the ones who killed them."

"..."

Li Yunsheng sighed: "So we have to find out the truth about this matter, especially to catch the evil ghost who is behind the scenes, otherwise not only will there be no peace in this town, even the two of us will not be able to leave easily."

Liu Ruyan was silent for a long time, and finally just smiled, without saying anything more, she asked softly: "Are you still hungry? Do you want to make some supper for you?"

"No, it's late, it's too disturbing."

She slightly raised her eyebrows and said, "How could it be? You are my child's savior, why bother?"

Qi Mo said: "Indeed, there is no need. If Mrs. Liu really wants to help us, please answer our few questions carefully."

"It's okay, both of you."

He carefully considered his words, and asked her kindly: "Madam Liu, do you know the origin of the nine statues of dragons in Youlong Temple?"

Liu Ruyan seemed a little surprised that he asked such a thing. She recalled solemnly: "When the mayor took office, he invited the most famous craftsmen from nine households in the town to jointly cast it."

Li Yunsheng frowned and said, "Then which craftsman is responsible for the statue of the fifth son Suanni?"

"I remember, it's... the Zhao family on West Street."

"The Zhao family?"

Liu Ruyan turned her eyes away silently, she looked at the moonlight outside the window, and sighed suddenly: "But Zhao Mengan, the Patriarch of the Zhao family, died a few days ago - I heard that he was going to worship at the Dragon Temple Afterwards, he died on the way home."

Qi Mo's expression became colder, he glanced sideways at Li Yunsheng, and continued to ask: "How many people died in Youlong Town during this period?"

"Including tonight's mayor, there are five in total. In addition to Zhao Meng'an just mentioned, there are also Liu Mubai, Li Shiqian and Sun Haizhou."

Li Yunsheng was suddenly blessed, and he blurted out almost without thinking: "I'm afraid the other three people also participated in the casting of the dragon son statue, right?"

"That's true." Liu Ruyan said, "That's why the residents of the town feel that something went wrong in that temple, some evil spirits got in and angered the gods."

"It's extremely stupid. Everything has a cause and an effect. If it's not for the obsession, how can this disaster happen for no reason?"

She shook her head sadly: "Forgive me, the two of you are not from this town, so you don't need to go through this muddy water. If you continue to pursue it, you may even get into trouble."

"If you haven't seen it before, it's fine." Li Yunsheng raised his eyebrows angrily, "But now I've seen it, and I've been in the muddy water. If there is no clear result, I really can't convince myself——What do you mean? "

The last sentence was naturally asking Qi Mo next to him.

Qi Mo chuckled, pulled his arm and walked towards the backyard: "Sleep first, and go to Zhao's house tomorrow."

Xuese stayed quietly on Li Yunsheng's shoulder from the beginning to the end. When passing by the room where Liu Ruyan's mother and son were resting, she saw that the door was ajar. She noticed that the two of them had stopped, so she moved over curiously.

On the wall facing the doorway, there was a portrait of a man and a woman. The young woman in a plain cheongsam was Liu Ruyan.

And that man...

Liu Ruyan's youngest daughter had already stood behind them at some point, she tilted her head and looked around for a while, her eyes just fell on the painting, so she laughed coquettishly.

"Does it look good? Dad drew it!"
