Urban Night Returner

Walking out of Tao Bar, Shen Gu asked thoughtfully: "Is Hai Changsheng's words reliable?"

Zhong Lecen thought for a moment: "I think it should be credible. I mean, she didn't lie to us."

Shen Gu immediately understood what he meant: "You said that Mr. Xie Zhu might have lied to Hai Changsheng?"

"It's not impossible. Although there is no conflict of interest between monsters and ghosts, they are not close friends. Of course, they may not tell the truth. Moreover, Hai Changsheng is a monster with a safety certificate. In this regard, he is just like a wandering soul." Wild ghosts are different. She may regard Mr. Xie Zhu as a friend, but Mr. Xie Zhu may be on guard against her. Turtles are very gentle creatures. Willing to second-guess others with malice.”

"What do you think Mr. Xie Zhu is lying about?"

"That's the cause of her death. What does it mean to be accidentally burned to death in a porcelain kiln? Let me tell you, if it's a brick kiln or something, it might have been stepped on and fell down and burned to death, and a porcelain kiln—I know a little bit about it. The temperature of the furnace is very important when making porcelain, so the kiln is tightly closed, leaving only a small window to add fire. Moreover, the kiln is not dug on the spot like some black brick kilns, it is built like a house Wake up, who would run to the roof of the porcelain kiln? So it is impossible to be accidentally burned to death. And at that time, Dad Bingbing saw a wound on the woman’s forehead? I think she should have been crushed to death.”

"After being smashed to death, thrown into a porcelain kiln and burned to death?"

"Correct."

"Who smashed her to death?"

"Very likely, it's her husband."

"how?"

"As I told you, the porcelain kiln is to be sealed and only a small window is left, so the porcelain must be moved in and put away first, and then the kiln is sealed. Therefore, there is absolutely no way to see a dead person inside. And the porcelain kiln is sealed. Afterwards, there were guards, and it was even more difficult to push the corpse in through such a small window, so the person who killed her must be the person who sealed the kiln, or at least the person who sealed the kiln knew about it. According to the rules of the porcelain shop, no Anyone can seal the kiln. It must be a parent or a highly respected craftsman. If this is a family tradition of firing porcelain, it is usually Xie Zhujun's husband who sealed the kiln himself. So I think her husband killed her, and then Seal her in a kiln and destroy her corpse."

Shen Gu pondered for a while: "If that's the case, it's understandable for her to insist on not reincarnating. But Hai Changsheng said that she had never killed anyone before, so what is the purpose of killing now?"

"Do you think she is following Zuo Mu in killing people? Couldn't she be coerced by Zuo Mu?"

"I don't think so."

"why?"

"If it was you, who were coerced into making murderous porcelain, would you still make it so delicate?"

"Oh..." Zhong Lecen stopped talking.Shen Gu looked at him: "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"Hai Changsheng trusts her so much, but—"

"Hai Changsheng is right. It is estimated that Xie Zhujun really did not kill anyone when she met Xie Zhujun. I don't know what Zuo Mu told her, but since she died at the hands of her husband and has never been reincarnated, it must be There is resentment. Zuo Mu is actually very accurate in people's hearts, otherwise he wouldn't have eaten the Xiao family to death."

Zhong Lecen was even more worried: "Then what should I do? I think Zuo Mu has gone into a rut. If he didn't get Bingbing's soul this time, he might harm other people again. No, he will definitely think about other things." Solution! If we can't find him one day, he may kill another person."

Shen solid silence.There is nothing he can do now.If Zuo Mu wanted to find people with pure yin in the four pillars, then there were too many of them. Could he go to the police station to check their household registration and then protect all the people who were born in the cloudy year?Then he must have Sun Monkey's ability to pluck a handful of hairs and turn into tens of millions.

"Well, let me investigate the matter of Mr. Xie Zhu." Although it happened more than a hundred years ago, if you go to the history of Binhai City, you may have some clues. A simulated portrait. Although Xie Zhujun is a ghost, maybe there are still people who can see her." There are also some people in this world who don't know that they have yin and yang eyes.

Zhong Lecen looked out of the car window, and after a while said softly: "When I was young, I was very envious of Le Yang. I always wished that one day I could have such strong spiritual power like him, so that my grandpa and uncles would treat me well." ...After I left home, I didn't think much about it. But now, I never hoped that I was capable."

Shen Gu stretched out his arms to hug him: "It's all the same. It's all men who want to be stronger."

Zhong Lecen shook his head: "No. Since the second uncle told me that my spiritual aperture was actually sealed, I think it's not bad now. Although my spiritual power is not too strong, I can still do some things. But now It's different, Zuo Mu - he is actually very talented. It's just that he married Suqin in order to build an army, and at that time he gave up the Taoism handed down from his family. But judging from the Taoism he used, we can see that this person is very talented. Smart. Although he has not received systematic training, with hundreds of years of life, he has learned a lot, and he can also master it. Look at the four-spirit array he set up in the Jinyu Building. Of course, the four-spirit transfer array is nothing special , There are many people who know how to use it, but he can use thorns as eyes, attracting wealth and nourishing yin, he just turned a geomantic treasure into a yin place, which is a fusion of two completely different things, just It’s not something that can be learned in the book, let alone something that everyone can think of. There is also his space crack. Although the Zuo family kept the book as a secret, the owners of the past generations can see it. Why haven’t they listened to it? Do you think someone has learned it?"

Shen Gu nodded.Zuo Mu snatched the book, and within a month, he was able to use the rift in space to get the water from the Sansheng Spring. Not to mention anything else, just say that he is a fast learner, which is indeed a skill.

"There is also the matter of Bingbing this time. Although we used the little ghost to seduce the soul, we didn't notice any ghosts on Bingbing at all. If we hadn't met Accountant Han at her wedding, you would have seen the redness in her eyebrows. Mole, who will pay attention? Bingbing will be finished by then. I find it very strange that this is the point, why didn’t we see the slightest ghost? According to common sense, this little ghost always follows Bingbing, so Bingbing will definitely There is black air, and people with yin and yang eyes must be able to see it."

Shen Gu thought about it again and again, and still shook his head: "I really can't see it. At that time, I just thought that her face was not very good, but many students in the college entrance examination are like this, and they will not attract attention. Maybe the little ghost didn't follow Bingbing all the time. She came to seduce her soul when she was seriously ill?"

"That's impossible. Impermanence seduces the soul because there is a book of life and death. Otherwise, how would you know when a person dies? After the soul leaves the body, if it coincides with the time in the book of life and death, the errand will come to pick him up; if there is Resentment may stay in the yang and become a ghost; if it is neither, then it is exhausted and will soon dissipate. Just like the souls we collected for Yu Yue, Dongfang Chen and Heizi need to stay in the hospital all the time. It is true that this soul cannot be reincarnated, so we must start immediately, and the soul will disperse later, and it cannot be collected again."

"Then how do you explain Bingbing?"

"No explanation. At least I can't explain it now. I can only say that Zuo Mu's method is very clever, and I still can't see through it."

Shen Gu touched his face reassuringly: "He is in the dark, we are in the light, and passive is certain. Just try our best. Fortunately, we now know that he is with a female ghost who makes porcelain, so we can pay more attention to this aspect Not at all, not completely clueless."

"That's the only way to go." Zhong Lecen was a little frustrated, but then lifted his spirits, "Let's go to see the little mermaid in a few days, what kind of gift should we give?"

"This..." Shen Gu has no experience in giving gifts, let alone giving them to non-human beings, "Merman—what do you like to eat?"

"Fish, shellfish, and seaweed. But the ones we can get, I'm afraid people will look down on them."

Shen Gu was speechless.Mermaids live in the sea, so they can't get any kind of seafood, and of course they don't like the ones that people eat.But other than that, he really couldn't think of what to give.

Zhong Lecen had an idea: "Let's go get one of Zhou Zhi's relics, shall we? The photos we took last time attracted Yu Yue, but the photos are just photos after all. You can wash as many photos as you want, and it will make people feel It's not too rare. Let's get something that Zhou Zhi used frequently during his lifetime and give it to the child, shall we?"

"That's good, but will Zhou Zhi's parents give it? How can we tell them? Say they have a granddaughter, but she's a mermaid?"

"We can stop talking to them."

"Then you—" Shen Gu suddenly understood, "You let me steal it?"

"Just steal it once. It's not like you can't do the thing of slipping the door and picking the lock."

"Hey——" Shen Gu didn't know what to say, "Is there anyone like you? Ask your husband to steal something?"

Zhong Lecen didn't pay attention to his words: "What's the point? It's not about stealing any valuables! Besides, this child will never see his father, so what if he takes a relic? Of course, we don't take special souvenirs. Meaningful, after all, Zhou Zhi’s parents also need it. But it shouldn’t be a problem to get a small one, right? For example, Zhou Zhi’s clothes buttons or something.”

"Clothes buttons?" Shen Gu thought that the relics mentioned by Zhong Lecen were at least watches, mobile phones, etc. that he used frequently during his lifetime, but he didn't expect that they were clothes buttons. "Is this thing okay? Will Yu Yue want it?"

"Why not? Don't underestimate clothes or anything like that. They were worn on people during their lifetime. The closest thing has attracted the most popularity. Even though it's just a button, the child can still feel his father's breath."

Shen Gu touched his chin: "There are so many ways to dress..."

"Don't you know that clothes are very easy to cause evil? There are many records in books, saying that dead people come back, everything is the same as before, and then suddenly disappear, leaving only a suit of clothes like a cicada's slough. In fact, this is because the clothes in life are contaminated with popularity, and ghosts can return to the world by virtue of them after death. So don't underestimate clothes, this thing is very mysterious."

"Oh, the old saying that a wife is like clothes, is it because women are also very mysterious?"

"You—" Zhong Lecen was completely speechless.

Stealing Zhou Zhi's clothes buttons is really a piece of cake for Shen Gu, it can be said to be easier than eating a piece of cake.He spent a day observing the living habits of Zhou Zhi's parents. On the second day, half an hour after Zhou Zhi's parents left home to go grocery shopping, he swaggered into Zhou's house with Zhong Lecen.

"That's all." Zhong Lecen picked up some scissors from the closet in Zhou Zhi's room.An old T-shirt, which has turned pale. Judging from his stature, it should have been worn by Zhou Zhi when he was in his teens. Come down, fold the clothes as they were and put them back, "It's done!"

"Why did you choose this?" Is there any special meaning?

"This button is pretty good, at least it has a pattern, and it's a bit decorative for the baby to hang on the body, otherwise it's not easy to hang it on the body if you get a broken plastic one?"

"Hang on your body?"

"That's right, father's relics, of course, have to be hung on the body. In fact, it would be best if you have a ring, but Zhou Zhi probably hasn't bought a wedding ring with Yu Yue yet."

"Well, I guess it's a pity for Yue."

"It would be great if we could show the Zhou family's parents the picture of the child."

"Don't!" Shen Gu was almost frightened by him, "Do you think everyone is like you? If Zhou Zhi's parents knew that their granddaughter was a mermaid, they would probably only be afraid. Anyway, this is not my race. .” Not to mention being a freak who has to devour his soul to survive.

Zhong Lecen sighed: "You're right. Besides, Yu Yue probably doesn't want to."

The two locked the door of Zhou's house as usual, and left the community side by side.In mid-July, Binhai has begun to heat up, but the morning breeze is still cool, there are no people around, Shen Gu and Zhong Lecen have a rare opportunity to walk slowly arm in arm.But after walking a few steps, Zhong Lecen's cell phone rang, and he picked it up to take a look: "Xiaoxi?"

"Brother Le Cen!" Xiaoxi cried, "Come here quickly, something happened to Lang Yiming!"

Shen Gu heard it clearly, and immediately asked, "Where are you?"

"In my brother's hospital!"

Fang Ningyuan picked them up at the door with an extremely strange expression: "In the intensive care unit on the second floor."

Shen Gu and Zhong Lecen immediately knew why he had such a weird face, because as soon as they entered the ward, they saw a wolf lying on the bed.

Xiaoxi sat on the chair beside the bed, her eyes were red.Zhong Lecen called her carefully: "Xiaoxi?"

"Brother Le Cen!" Xiaoxi burst into tears when he saw him, "What should I do? What's wrong with Lang Yiming? Think of a solution!"

"You—" Zhong Lecen didn't know what to say, "You are—" Miss, did you realize that this is a wolf?

Fang Ningyuan explained: "When Xiaoxi brought it here--sickness, patient, this patient suffered from electric shock." He had a very difficult time saying the word "patient", and he probably never thought about it encounter this patient.

"Brother Le Cen, show Yiming quickly!"

"Ah?" Zhong Lecen was at a loss, "I, I see?"

"Yeah, aren't you a veterinarian?"

Shen Gu held his breath abruptly, trying to hold back the burst of laughter that was about to burst out of his mouth.Zhong Lecen said with a distorted expression: "Xiaoxi, what do you think he is?"

"I know he's not human!" Xiaoxi's tears started to fall again, "It's okay if he's just a dog, I like him, really!"

puff!Shen Gu finally couldn't help laughing.dog?What a dog!Zhong Lecen's face was full of black lines: "Dog?"

Xiaoxi wiped her tears: "I know I'm allergic to pet fur, but huskies are short-haired dogs, so it doesn't matter."

"You are the husky—" a low voice came from the hospital bed, Shen Gu and the others turned their heads to look, and the gray wolf on the bed had recovered its human form, its face was pale, but its expression was extremely tangled, "Your eyes are also asthmatic!"

Xiaoxi looked at him with tears in his eyes: "Are you awake? How do you feel? Brother Ning Yuan, check him again! Brother Le Cen!"

As a doctor, Fang Ningyuan is duty-bound to examine patients, but as soon as he took a step forward, he was stopped by a person who appeared from behind.Bai Luobo stuck closely behind him, only half of his face was exposed, and said tremblingly, "Ning Yuan, don't go there, that's a wolf."

When Xiaoxi heard the word wolf, he froze for a moment: "Wolf?"

Lang Yiming forced himself to sit up, and immediately showed a look of arrogance in his eyes: "Why, you can't even tell the difference between a wolf and a dog?"

Xiaoxi blinked and looked at him blankly: "Wolf—"

Lang Yiming's eyes darkened for a moment, and then he turned his head maliciously and bared his teeth at the white radish. Seeing the white radish shrank behind Fang Ningyuan, he smiled coldly: "See? I'm a wolf, not what you said Husky!"

Shen Gu coughed and took a step forward: "Mr. Lang, let's discuss your identity after a while. Can you tell us what happened to you and Xiaoxi?"

Lang Yiming pondered for a while, then pointed to Xiaoxi: "Someone wants the soul of this silly girl."

"What?" Zhong Lecen exclaimed, "Who? Who is it?"

"I don't know him. A man in his thirties who uses the Wu Lei Tian Mantra."

Shen Gu turned around and asked Xiaoxi: "Xiaoxi, when is your birthday?"

Xiaoxi was stunned, and Lang Yiming had already replied: "You don't need to ask, this silly girl is completely yin."
