Adventure

Chapter 10

Hu Xiaoming hung up the phone with a serious expression: "It seems that you still have to go back to the police station with us. Everything you have explained is full of loopholes, including this house that is no longer inhabited. I will ask my colleagues to find out who the real owner is. Who, is this character Xia Yue fabricated by you or has other secrets, we will also investigate, the most important thing now is your murder suspicion!"

At this time, Ruan Zhen's emotions were already stretched to the extreme, but after listening to the other party's words, he relaxed a little, showing a wry smile: "I didn't kill anyone, and I didn't lie, why did things become like this, I really want to make a joke Clearly, Police Officer Hu, I will fully cooperate with your investigation, so you don’t have to worry about that.”

As a police officer, Hu Xiaoming has a bit of ability to read people, and he, Chen Han and Ruan Zhen also had a relationship with each other when they came to Cangxi Village in the same car. In his heart, he didn't believe that this ordinary college student with a clean temperament would commit many evil deeds. Slowly lowered his face and nodded, "Okay, then let's get in the car and go back."

Halfway through the drive, Ruan Zhen was silent all the way, and the atmosphere in the car was a little heavy. Hu Xiaoming saw him staring sideways at the window in a daze, his eyes were distracted and unfocused. The information you received is not good for you, but don’t be too nervous. It’s [-]:[-], and in about two hours, the city will send a car to take away the body and send it to the police station for a second inspection. Maybe it will be found. Different results."

Ruan Zhen turned his face away after hearing this, and asked: "Going to the city so soon? But my two classmates and the monk died in Cangxi Village and the mountains. Shouldn't it be more beneficial to solve the case to investigate carefully here? ?"

"We have our own arrangements for this. Also, hand over your mobile phone to me. From now on, you can no longer contact others independently."

Ruan Zhen tightened his hand, and did not hand over the phone right away. He became emotional: "But, I haven't contacted Brother Xia, and my parents. What if I can't get through?"

"Xia Yue, we will naturally find a way to get in touch. As for your family, I understand your feelings, but what should be said and what should be faced must be faced."

Ruan Zhen had no choice but to hand the phone to the side, and then continued to keep silent, the scenery of the houses receding in his eyes became meaningless symbols, seemingly endless.The car continued to drive, and I don't know how long it took. Hu Xiaoming suddenly came back to his senses. He looked around the scenery outside the car, where there were still people, and then looked at his watch. It hasn't arrived yet, and I don't know where it went!

"Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang!" Hu Xiaoming straightened up and leaned forward, patted the shoulder of the driver's seat, but got no response. Xiao Wang firmly controlled the steering wheel with both hands and drove forward, showing no intention of stopping .

Ruan Zhen looked through the rearview mirror, and was startled. There was a bright yellow paper talisman above Xiao Wang's eyebrows, revealing half of a bright red cinnabar that couldn't be identified.

Hu Xiaoming stepped between the seats of the driver and co-driver to see, and naturally saw the cinnabar yellow paper on Xiao Wang's forehead, cursed secretly, and tore off the paper talisman.

Without the Dao Talisman, Xiao Wang gradually became sober, his eyes were clear again, but his brain was a little unresponsive, and after seeing the scenery outside, he asked in a daze, "Why did we come here?"

Ruan Zhen asked him: "Where is this?"

"On the way to Nineteen Peaks, turn the next turn and you'll be at the admission point. No, didn't I drive to the office? Why did I come here?" Xiao Wang was confused and puzzled.

When Ruan Zhen saw the paper talisman, he had a vague suspicion in his heart, but naturally he would not tell the two police officers that Hu Xiaoming was calm when encountering such a strange thing, and said in a deep voice, "Turn around!"

"Since we're all here, why don't you go in and have a look?"

A face suddenly appeared outside the car window, and Hu Xiaoming asked vigilantly, "Who?" Ruan Zhen greeted in surprise, "It really is you!"

The young Taoist priest knocked on the glass window with his fingers, Hu Xiaoming put down the car window, and raised the yellow paper in his hand with a straight face: "You made this thing?"

The Taoist ignored Hu Xiaoming's criticism, and smiled lightly: "Officer Hu, don't always look down on people with this thing and that thing, it's the one that got you here obediently, didn't it?"

As police officers, Hu Xiaoming and Xiao Wang shouldn't believe in the metaphysics of strange powers, but they couldn't explain everything in front of them, so they had to continue talking to the Taoist priest: "Why did you bring us here? If you know anything, you can go to Reporting to the institute, there is no need to spend a lot of time arranging this."

"No, no," the Taoist priest shook his head, curled his lips and said, "I just want to bring classmate Ruan Zhen here to do business. You are just passing along. If you two want to go back now, you can do whatever you want. Anyway, the car can't drive into the scenery. district."

This person's origin is unknown, and he still speaks so arrogantly, Hu Xiaoming was furious, and said with a sneer, "You can call out my name, and you know Ruan Zhen, it seems that you have put in a lot of effort, and there are many strange tricks Means, I now have reason to suspect that the three murders are related to you, as a police officer, I cannot let you take Ruan Zhen away."

"You're wrong again. I'm here to solve these murder cases. I'm a good person." The Taoist was too lazy to talk to Hu Xiaoming, and nodded at Ruan Zhen, "Don't worry, I want to take you away, but the two of them can't stop me, don't you?" Don't you want to know what happened to Xia Yue?"

Ruan Zhen's eyes lit up, and he made a gesture to open the door to get out of the car, but Hu Xiaoming grabbed his hand: "Ruan Zhen, you can't go with him."

The Taoist showed a look of impatience, and raised his hand, two strips of yellow paper slid into the window, and climbed onto the back of Hu Xiaoming and Xiao Wang's head. The two of them touched with their backs, but halfway through the stretch, they gradually lost strength and fell limply, closing their eyes. Passed out.

Ruan Zhen was startled, and reached out to touch it. The Taoist priest opened the car door and saw his movement, and said, "Don't worry, I just let them sleep for 5 minutes. We have to hurry up!" Ruan Zhen turned around and took it from Hu Xiaoming's hand. His cell phone got out of the car.

The two rushed forward, racing against time as if fleeing for their lives, and entered the Nineteenth Peak. After walking along the route from the scenic spot for a while, the Taoist suddenly led Ruan Zhen away from the small bushes and turned into a dark road, and walked another bumpy road. When they reached the mountain wall, seeing that there was no way to go, the Taoist priest walked forward alone and pulled away the dense gray-green vines lying on the stone wall, revealing a large black hole, from which a burst of cold dampness came.

The Taoist priest got into the hole first, Ruan Zhen hesitated for a second, and followed in. There was no skylight inside, but suddenly a beam of white lighted up, and it was the Taoist priest who turned on the flashlight.

"You are well prepared," Ruan Zhen couldn't tell whether it was a compliment or a sarcasm, and asked without waiting for the other party's answer, "Can I trouble you to explain what this place is all about? And what exactly do you want to do?"

"Don't you have an idea of ​​what I want to do?" The Taoist laughed, his usually handsome face was a little strange in the interlaced light and color, "Luo Hao is dead, why did he call to invite you in the middle of the night? Come to the Nineteenth Peak? Your dream last night, if it wasn’t for my Red Flame Talisman to help you get away, you would have been in the funeral parlor with three other corpses now!”

"How do you know the time of Luo Hao's death and the fact that he called us?" Ruan Zhen's eyebrows raised high, full of suspicion, "Why are you helping me again and again? Do you know the reason behind these weird events?" Secret, and the cause of death of the three people?"

"The only one who knows the truth is the murderer himself. Obviously I am not. I just happen to know a little more than others. As for Luo Hao's matter, I will wait outside the police station until your classmate comes out, and I will know everything with just a few words. The Taoist priest answered while taking the lead, "Besides, I am not helping you. It is more accurate to say helping each other."

Ruan Zhen followed the Taoist priest step by step, and the more he listened, the more confused he became: "How do you say this?"

"You have never been exposed to what I have learned, so it is difficult for you to understand. I can only tell you that I calculated a hexagram for myself half a month ago. It is a sign of life and death. Once you enter Cangxi, you will die. It takes three people to bring the dead back to life, and one of them is you."

Ruan Zhen immediately asked: "Then there is another one? Is it Brother Xia?"

The Taoist sighed lightly, frowned and said: "If I can identify the last person, then I will be a little more sure about this trip, but I can't figure it out. I only know that the other party is capable and can suppress mountain evil, but it will not be Xia Yue. It's hard to tell Xia Yue's identity, but I'm sure he's a human being, but...he's not a good person, he appears so timely by your side every time, isn't it just a coincidence? By now, don't be so naive gone."

Ruan Zhen was silent for a while, then suddenly spoke out, with a light tone: "You don't have to say such things to me, I will see what kind of person Xia Ge is, and if he does something harmful, I will also See the real evidence."

Ruan Zhen said this on his lips, but he thought in his heart, I'm afraid he didn't know about the thing about spending the night in Brother Xia's "home" last night. It's impossible for Brother Xia to make such an illusion to deceive me. "Bar?Is it true that Brother Xia and I have planned our actions since we met?

Thinking about the headache, Ruan Zhen decided to walk seriously. Suddenly, a vague human voice came from a distance. After saying a few words, the sound disappeared again. The Taoist stopped his footsteps. behind the wall.

The footsteps gradually approached, and the noise seemed to be more than one person. The Taoist priest hooked two fingers and was about to throw out the paper talisman, when one of them suddenly said, "Did you read that right? Why can't I find it anywhere?"

Ruan Zhen was startled, and blurted out, "It's you!"
