Detective Case of Black Belly

Chapter 74: Ghost Fire

"Woman's fire?" Fu Qing said in a trembling voice, he could only see this blue light in the darkness, as if he saw a giant black beast devouring the light, and opened all its blue eyes together.

"Look and go." Fu Qingkai grabbed Wu Yuyan's shoulder again, repeatedly confirming that he was standing beside her properly.

"Are you going? Did you get hurt anywhere?" Wu Yuyan was very worried about Fu Qingkai's physical condition, wondering if there was any wound.

Besides, Wu Yuyan didn't have night blindness, so he didn't know what kind of weird look this gloomy scene would look in Fu Qingkai's eyes.

"Are you hurt?" Fu Qing asked back.

"Nope, what about you?"

"Really? You protect me so much, if you want to get hurt, you should be hurt. How can I be hurt?" Fu Qing said, "Don't underestimate me."

I don't know if it's because the fear was so intense that curiosity got the upper hand instead, and Fu Qingkai actually made a joke.

Wu Yuyan supported him tightly, and walked towards the clusters of blue will-o'-the-wisps step by step with extreme caution.After they had advanced a few meters in the dark with difficulty, the clusters of will-o'-the-wisps flickered in the wind and disappeared out of thin air.

"Yu Yan, am I the only one who can't see, or you can't see either." Fu Qing opened his hand and grabbed the void a few times.

Wu Yuyan grabbed his hand and pulled it back, "It's because it disappeared, not because you couldn't see it. Do you want to get closer and have a look?"

"Yes. Yu Yan, it depends on your eyes." Fu Qingkai was now more curious than fearful.

When they were really standing in the place where the ghost fire appeared just now, this place was so ordinary that people couldn't figure it out.The soil here has the same degree of softness and hardness as the surrounding areas, and there are also wild grasses that Wu Yuyan can't name.

"What is that?" Wu Yuyan frowned, trying to see a strange protrusion in the corner of the rock on the right side clearly.

"what?"

"There seems to be something over there by Qing Kai, follow me." Wu Yuyan led Fu Qingkai to the side of the statue.

Fu Qing noticed that Wu Yuyan squatted down, and followed his body, squatting down. "How is it? Where is it?"

"Yes?" Wu Yuyan's voice sounded full of doubts, "I don't know if it should be a Buddha statue, or a ghost? I really don't know much about Buddhist allusions."

"Buddha statues, evil spirits? Could it be a Rakshasa?" Fu Qing had a flash of enlightenment.

"It should be." Wu Yuyan looked at this Rakshasa statue that inexplicably appeared in the wilderness. This Rakshasa statue seemed to be carved out of a large protruding rock. The lines of the statue's body were rough and blurred. It should be here. It has been exposed to wind and sun for a long time.

Wu Yuyan helped Fu Qingkai up, "I'm afraid we will spend the night here, let's go find a place with a leeward wind, wait until the sky is clear tomorrow, and then go find a way out."

Fu Qing stumbled as he drove away, Wu Yuyan was afraid that he would not be able to hold him for a while, and if he fell again, it would be over.So he still hugged him, turned around and walked tens of meters, found a big rock, and sat on the ground on the leeward side.

Fu Qing wiped his face with his sleeve and smelled a faint smell of blood.

"Yu Yan! Are you hurt somewhere? There is blood on my sleeve! Don't hide it from me!"

"Don't worry, it's just a scratch on your hand." Wu Yuyan grabbed Fu Qingkai's hand and pressed it on his injured palm.

Fu Qing opened his hand back, twisted it, and felt the slight stickiness on his lower fingers. "Does it hurt?" Fu Qing was very happy.

Wu Yuyan felt that this little injury was nothing, but that Fu Qingkai was writhing restlessly in his arms. "What's wrong?"

"Just let me lie on your body overnight? Will you be able to bear it until tomorrow morning?" Fu Qing said, struggling to get up.

Wu Yuyan pressed him back into his arms, "Am I that stupid?"

"It's not false, I'm a man anyway, it's not a joke to put the weight on your body overnight, besides, the dirt floor is also dry and not wet, so why not just sit on the ground." Fu Qing's tone was a little anxious Wu Yuyan had no choice but to fulfill his wish.

"Is it okay to lean in my arms? I'm cold." Naturally, Wu Yuyan wouldn't feel cold, but he knew what to say that Fu Qing couldn't refuse.

Although Fu Qingkai would not believe his words, he still shrank obediently into Wu Yuyan's arms, buried his head, and said something in a voice like a mosquito. "sorry."

Wu Yuyan frowned, "Why do you say sorry?"

"If it wasn't for my fall, I wouldn't..." Wu Yuyan cut off Fu Qing's words before he finished speaking.

"If I hadn't led you to that dark place, you wouldn't have fallen! If you want to blame me for your current situation, then I'm the culprit." Wu Yuyan intercepted Fu Qing's words, and even a fool could hear his words What he said, he was angry.

Fu Qing couldn't see, so he could only reach out to touch Wu Yuyan's face. He felt his eyebrows tightened and his thin lips tightly closed, so he tried his best to rub the gap between his eyebrows, and then used two sticks to squeeze the corners of his mouth. The index finger propped up.

Wu Yuyan allowed him to fiddle without saying a word, but he didn't speak.Fu Qing had no choice but to kiss Wu Yuyan on the lips a few times indiscriminately.Realizing that Wu Yuyan was still icy and silent, Fu Qing let out a 'hum' and got up from his arms for a moment before Wu Yuyan, who was originally like a piece of wood, quickly pushed him back.

"do not move."

"Not angry anymore?" Fu Qing lay in his arms and poked his cheek with her fingers.

"Don't say such things in the future, you know?" Wu Yuyan sighed.

"Well, let's not talk about it." After Fu Qingkai finished this sentence, the two of them didn't speak any more, they only felt Wu Yuyan's warm chest rising and falling, and at some point, Fu Qingkai gradually fell into sleep .

However, Wu Yuyan never really fell asleep from the beginning to the end, he just dozed off. In this wilderness, he couldn't relax and go to sleep no matter what.

Finally, when dawn was safe and sound, Wu Yuyan touched Fu Qing's hair, "Wake up, Qing, wake up."

"Huh, huh?" Fu Qing looked up sleepily, "Is it dawn?"

"Well, we found the way back earlier, so that our parents won't worry."

"Okay. But let's take a look at the place where the will-o'-the-wisps were yesterday." Fu Qingkai was still brooding over what happened last night. With the help of the sunlight, he regained his eyesight, and he couldn't wait to see it.

Under the rays of the rising sun, this piece of land looks more ordinary, and even the stone Rakshasa statue looks more benevolent under the sun.

"Is this still the boundary of Cang'an Temple?" Fu Qing asked.

"Forget it." Wu Yuyan said.

"Then it seems that we have to go back and ask the older monks to see if they know the origin of the will-o'-the-wisp last night." Fu Qing insisted on clarifying this matter. "Let's go."

Wu Yuyan and the two walked along the bottom of the narrow valley for almost two hours, but they didn't feel tired, "Yuyan, do you feel..."

"We are going downhill, we are going downhill!" Wu Yuyan was also thinking about this.

"Yu Yan, the end is blocked!"

In fact, Fu Qing didn't need to say anything, Wu Yuyan had already seen that the passage not far away was blocked by a huge boulder as tall as a person. This boulder seemed to have been here for some years, and it was covered with thick moss.

Fu Qing looked around, then at the rock, and tilted his head to the right in doubt.

But Wu Yuyan looked familiar to this boulder, "Turn it over, I have a hunch, turning it over is the way out."

Wu Yuyan cut off a tree vine hanging on the stone wall, and he flew up to the huge boulder by himself, then lowered the tree vine, and pulled Fu Qingkai up.The two stood on the top of the boulder and looked at the other side. Fu Qingkai couldn't react for a while, and only heard Wu Yuyan say, "We have been here before."

"Ah? When?" Fu Qingkai looked in amazement at the flat brick and stone floor in front of him, the vermilion pillars not far away, and the clusters of obviously pruned flowers. This is clearly the back garden of a certain house!

"However, I have never been here before. This is Shen Tangsheng's private residence, where I was invited to a banquet last time." Wu Yuyan said.

"It turned out to be his house." Something flashed through Fu Qing's mind, but he couldn't grasp it, "Let's go, let's go back to Cang'an Temple, lest parents worry and have to come out to find us. " Fu Qing said.

Wu Yuyan stared at the boulder under his feet without answering, and nodded after a while.

The two hurried to Cang'an Temple again, and when they finally stood in front of their parents and sister who hadn't slept all night, Fu Qingkai was exhausted.

The two of them were dirty from top to bottom, their clothes were full of mud stains, holes, and grass leaves, and their hair smelled like earth.They only said that they accidentally slipped down the hillside and then managed to get out.

Seeing that the two of them looked really embarrassed, Mother Wu couldn't bear to scold them any more, so she hurriedly asked someone to boil hot water for them so that they could take a quick hot bath and have a rest.

The two of them were sitting in two bathtubs, Fu Qingkai was warmed by the hot water, leaning his head on the edge of the tub, almost fell asleep, and slowly slid into the tub.

Wu Yuyan stepped out of the bathtub first, and quickly pulled Fu Qing to open it.Fu Qingkai suddenly came back to his senses, "Go to bed and sleep."

Fu Qingkai's next memory was blurred, and he just felt that he was surrounded by clouds, which was extremely comfortable.

The second when the memory starts again is the moment when Fu Qing opens his eyes.

"Are you awake?" Wu Yuyan sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him.

Before Fu Qingkai could speak, his stomach began to growl.

"Get up and have some porridge?" Wu Yuyan rubbed his belly, then reached out to help him up.

"Have you slept yet?" Fu Qing drove to the table, where Wu Yuyan was serving porridge out of the casserole.

"Slept for a while. Waiting for you to eat together." Wu Yuyan replied.

The two of them were really hungry, and they only spoke the first sentence after half a bowl of porridge, "Are you frightened?"

"Fortunately, they know that neither of us are reckless people, and nothing serious will happen." Wu Yuyan said.
