Touch a corpse to fall in love

Chapter 21 Birch Forest

Cheng Xiao and the bus itself were not far from the sea of ​​flames, so it was nothing more than being flushed by the fire at this time, plus it was the scorching hot weather in mid-to-late June, after such a toss, when they came to their senses His clothes were already sweaty.

When he saw the figure of the zombie gradually flashing out of the fire, Cheng Xiao's heart suddenly tugged together, and he couldn't care less about the embarrassment and sweat all over his body.

Because he didn't know when he carried back the fake Wang Hong's briefcase, the tablet engraved with Cheng Xiao's birth date, and the Warring States Silk Book.

Cheng Xiao never ordered him to do anything, but he has been carefully guarding the things Cheng Xiao gave him.

Taking a step forward to meet the zombie, Cheng Xiao hesitated for a while and didn't know what to call him, so he could only ask hesitantly, "How are you?"

The zombie looked at Cheng Xiao for a while, then nodded slightly, without making a sound.

Cheng Xiao saw that although his movements were slightly hesitant and sluggish, they were still normal, so he relaxed and pointed to his clothes and said, "Why is there so much blood?"

The zombie walked two steps closer to Cheng Xiao without saying anything, grabbed Cheng Xiao's right arm with one hand and said, "Master...you are injured." Seeing that Cheng Xiao was about to struggle, the zombie's voice was hoarse , "Don't move." As he spoke, he lowered his head to Cheng Xiao's right arm and crouched down.

The bus wanted to stop him, but thought that the zombie was probably healing Cheng Xiao, so he stopped for a moment.

Cheng Xiao also felt that this zombie would not hurt him, so he did not continue to struggle.

The cold lips were stuck to Cheng Xiao's right arm through a thin cloth, and Cheng Xiao could feel the softness of his lips and the slight astringency of his hair.

Cheng Xiao's back stiffened for a moment, and he didn't even dare to move.

The itching that had been tormenting him before was pulled away little by little, and the pain just now was also eliminated.

After about a minute, the zombie slowly let go of Cheng Xiao's arm and stood up straight: "Who was injured by the young master?"

Cheng Xiao was slightly embarrassed, and hastily withdrew his hand and said, "An old man." After another hesitation, Cheng Xiao hesitated, "Do you know what's going on?" That ghost, so this zombie should know something, right?

The eyes of the zombie's hair became darker, and his lips moved, but he didn't say anything.

The bus stretched its head between the two of them, then stretched out a finger and poked the zombie's shoulder socket. It gave a surprised "Huh" at first, and then poked again: "Is it hot? Or is it soft?" Looking back at Cheng Xiao, the bus said, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe anyone who told me that this guy is a zombie." Nima, what's the difference between this and a living person?

Cheng Xiao subconsciously touched his right arm with his left hand. Apart from the slight pain from the wound penetrated by the ghost's five fingers, it seemed that there was no serious problem.

The bus turned back to look at the zombie and said, "Brother, I don't want to ask you these things here, but you also saw it just now, there are so many ghosts around here, if it wasn't for me and Cheng Zier, I guess It’s been hanging here for a long time. I’m really curious, what’s going on here?”

Cheng Xiao said from behind the bus: "Bus, I'm to blame for this incident. It was I who moved the magic weapon on the first basement floor, and then unintentionally released those ghosts." Speaking of this, Cheng Xiao suddenly remembered the tripod incense burner, "It's broken! That incense burner is still in the forest!" Cheng Xiao subconsciously looked at the forest engulfed by the fire as soon as he finished speaking, with a look of annoyance on his face: "This is a big disaster!" Take it back and give it to the experts of Time Detective Agency for reuse.

The bus looked surprised: "Didn't someone take the magic weapon away?"

Cheng Xiaodao: "No, that Master Wang lied to us. The magic weapon was not taken away at all. The so-called Wu Xiaodong and Li Yu were murdered by the ghost, it was just a cover for him to lure us to the basement."

The bus thought for a while, and immediately understood: "He used you to destroy the magic weapon and seal on the first basement floor, and then tried to kill you after he got it, which caused you to be injured?"

Cheng Xiao nodded: "That magic weapon is in the censer I was holding before." When held hostage by the ghost in the woods, the censer fell to the ground, and I don't know how it was burned now. Can you still find it?

When Cheng Xiao was at a loss, a slightly messy hand stretched out, and what was held in that hand was the incense burner that Cheng Xiao accidentally left behind in the birch forest.

Cheng Xiao was stunned for a moment, and after realizing it, he immediately grabbed the incense burner and said, "This is it!" Pushing away the bus in front of him, Cheng Xiao looked at the zombie and said, "Thank you!"

The zombie shook his head slowly, and said slowly, "My lord...why didn't you call me by my name?"

Cheng Xiao was taken aback: "Name?"

"Tree." The zombie said, looking at Cheng Xiao without blinking his eyes, "Young master, have you forgotten?"

Cheng Xiao nodded suddenly, this is the name he came up with casually: "I saw so many hibiscus trees on your coffin... I said it casually at the time, don't mind. If you think of your previous name, you can tell me .”

The zombie seemed to smile: "It's called a tree, Ashu."

The smile on the corner of Cheng Xiao's lips was slightly stiff: "Hehe...hehe..." After laughing dryly twice, Cheng Xiao said, "Then... A Shu."

The bus felt that this person and the zombie were ignoring him a bit, so he couldn't help but feel slightly depressed: "You two finished talking? Can you clear up my confusion when you finish talking?"

Cheng Xiao looked at the bus and grinned: "I think it is more appropriate for us to find a way to explain why there is such a big fire." Let alone whether such a big fire will attract the attention of the government, it is only the funeral parlor's question , Cheng Xiao found it difficult to deal with it.

The bus said indifferently: "This is just a small problem."

Cheng Xiao also knew that the bus could settle the matter, so he looked at the zombie again and said, "By the way, I saw those ghosts plunge into the fire before, why is that? Shouldn't they run away? "

The zombie shook his head, paused for a while before saying: "I don't know, but there seems to be something under this forest."

Cheng Xiao was slightly surprised, and didn't understand the meaning of the zombie's words for a moment.

Cheng Xiao wanted to continue asking, but the bus immediately tugged at his shirt sleeve and said, "Cheng Zier, someone is here."

Cheng Xiao turned around and saw three or four cars coming one after another on the road four or five hundred meters away. The flashing red police lights on them clearly showed the identity of the owner of the car.

Cheng Xiao immediately turned around and said, "A Shu, you hide first, and come out after they leave."

Cheng Xiao's order was only subconscious, but the bus frowned calmly.

Many people came one after another from the side of the road, and two of them came towards the woods at a very fast speed.

Cheng Xiao and the bus looked at each other and started walking back step by step.

After walking less than a hundred meters, the two were already very close to Cheng Xiao and the others.

Although the fire in the woods lit up half of the sky, the two people coming from the road couldn't see their faces clearly for a while.It seems that it absorbs all the light along the way, and is able to integrate all lighting things into its own body, making others unable to see the truth and reality clearly.

In fact, it was only because the area that the forest fire could illuminate was limited, not because the light was absorbed as Cheng Xiao thought.

In the pitch-black night, the darkness can swallow all light, including firelight naturally.The two people on the road came from the darkness, and they couldn't reach the range illuminated by the fire until they got close. This is just a natural phenomenon.It is because Cheng Xiao has consciously and irrationalized all these things in his mind, so he has wrong perceptions and feelings.

Of course, it is possible to light up half the sky.One is because the flame can produce some chemical reactions in contact with the air, refracting some colors; the other is that the sky has always given people a feeling of vastness and boundlessness, the space is very large, even if a small part of the sky is red, The human retina will also magnify it without limit and refract it into the nerve center, creating an illusion for human beings that half the sky is burning red.

Cheng Xiao himself understood the mystery, but after two days of thrilling, he subconsciously imagined all the seemingly unreasonable scenes as unknown things, which is also human nature.

The visitors are a man and a woman. The man is about 30 years old. He has a very handsome face and a tall figure. He belongs to the image of a tough and handsome male god that is more popular recently, especially when he is paired with a police uniform. How handsome.

The 24-year-old girl is more than beautiful, but not heroic, she looks like a fresh and fresh college student.

The male policeman walked over and said, "Hello, we are Ouyang Cheng and Fang Li from the Criminal Police Brigade of City A. May I ask who you are?"

Cheng Xiao noticed that the other police officers who got in and out of the police car surrounded the funeral home instead of coming to check the fire. He couldn't help but wondered: "Interpol brigade? Why shouldn't the fire brigade be called when the forest is on fire?"

The policeman looked at Cheng Xiao for a while, and for some reason, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled him into his arms. With so much force, he could hear the "thump" sound of Cheng Xiao bumping into his arms.

The policeman's reaction startled Cheng Xiao, until he realized that he was in the other's arms, he was even more horrified: "Hey!" Cheng Xiao pushed the male policeman away, took two steps back and looked at him in shock, "What are you doing?" ?!"

The policeman looked at Cheng Xiao slightly surprised: "...what's your name?"

Cheng Xiao frowned, feeling that the policeman was a bit strange: "Cheng Xiao."

"Cheng Xiao?" The policeman was a little suspicious, pointing to the bus and said, "Where did you get the Jade Buddha in your hand?"

The bus lit up the Jade Buddha wrapped around his wrist: "What do you mean?" The bus glanced at Cheng Xiao next to him, thought for a while and said, "I passed it down from my ancestors, do you have an opinion?"

The policeman named Ouyang Cheng seemed to have a faint smile on his face, but upon closer inspection, he showed no expression: "The person Fu Lin mentioned is you?"

Bus looked confused.

Cheng Xiao trembled and said, "Do you know Professor Ouyang?" Remembering that the policeman was also surnamed Ouyang, Cheng Xiao immediately understood the identity of this person, "Do you know where Professor Ouyang is now?"

The policeman shook his head, beckoned to the policewoman behind him and said, "Take them both back to the police station."

Cheng Xiao was somewhat conflicted: "Why? We didn't break the law."

The policeman looked at the two of them coldly and said, "Isn't murder and arson a crime?"

Cheng Xiao looked surprised: "Murder and arson?" What the hell, saying arson is a little convincing, saying that they killed people is too... No, they did kill people before!Cheng Xiao thought of the dead fake Wang Hong, a burst of cold sweat poured down his back, and immediately fell silent.

The bus was calmer than Cheng Xiao, but also sharper: "First, we didn't kill and set fire, we started the fire ourselves; second, if you want to arrest us, please show your arrest warrant; third, if you arrest us and go back No evidence of our crime can be found, I swear, our Chen family is not a vegetarian in City A."

"The Chen family?" The policeman looked sideways at the bus for a while, his eyes became sharper, "Chen Datong?"

The bus raised his chin and nodded slightly: "My uncle's father."

The policeman sneered: "Then we have to investigate more carefully, Xiao Fang, take them away!"

The bus was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that this Ouyang Cheng didn't have any fear of Chen Datong's name, instead he was even stricter.By the time he realized it, Ouyang Cheng had already strode towards Lin Zi without even looking at him.

"You're so fucking gutsy!" the bus yelled at Ouyang Cheng's back.

The remaining policewoman immediately reached out to stop the bus and said, "Excuse me, please cooperate."

What did the bus want to say, Cheng Xiao grabbed him and said, "Forget it, bus." No matter how powerful the Chen family is, after all, the two committed crimes first, so it is better to reduce some troubles .

The two followed the young policewoman to the police car parked on the road. After walking for more than 50 meters, Cheng Xiao suddenly remembered something.

Pausing slightly, Cheng Xiao turned around and looked at the empty road behind him, and called softly, "Ashu?"

Quiet, no movement.

Even the air is quiet, there is no abnormal movement, and there is no cold breath.

Shouting inwardly that it was not good, Cheng Xiao ran back.

"Cheng Zier!" Seeing Cheng Xiao running back suddenly, the bus immediately followed.

The female policeman was afraid that something bad would happen to the two of them, so she had to follow them to the direction of the flames.
