The strange case of the demon book

?The days passed like this, and Huo Wencai started to feel more comfortable. He bought some things in Guangzhou City and sent them to Dabao.When Huo Wencai picked up Tang Manzhu's note again, he decided to go to Tang Manzhu's appointment.

After tidying up the clothes that Wei Zong sent him last time on the boat, he went to the western restaurant to meet Tang Manzhu.

The western restaurant where Tang Manzhu met was in the Shangxiajiuna area.After Huo Wen found the western restaurant, a waiter led him in.Huo Wen is a bit restrained in this kind of exquisite place, and most of the guests here are foreigners.When seeing Tang Manzhu, Tang Manzhu smiled at Huo Wencai, and Huo Wencai relaxed with her smile.

Tonight's appointment, the conversation between the two was quite pleasant, and neither of them overstepped.The only thing that Huo Wen didn't like was that Tang Manzhu hinted that he would follow Master Tie, and he had clearly rejected it last time.

As a patrolman, it is not suitable to intervene in matters on the road, and Huo Wencai does not intend to intervene. Behind him is the police department, which has something to do with Wei Zong. If Master Tie uses him to win over Wei Zong, the balance of the roads in Guangzhou City may be balanced. will mess up.Although Tang Manzhu is still pleasing to the eye, he can only watch and appreciate it from a distance.

Seeing this, Huo Wen couldn't help but reflect on himself, the city of Guangzhou is much more complicated than Foshan.After leaving the western restaurant, Huo Wen took off his tie, took off his suit, and put it in his hands, he felt much more relaxed.

If next time Tang Manzhu still hinted that she would follow Master Tie, or if Master Tie approached her again, she should have a reason to refuse...

The days passed like this, I was on errand during the day, and I encountered trivial things.Murder and robbery have also been encountered.In this era, such things are extremely common, and they have no choice but to compromise and continue to live without surprise.

A month later, it was time for Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui to change shifts at night.This month, Huo Wencai has enough money in his pocket, and Cocoa can be put in the Red House at night to wait for Shitong to sell rouge and gouache at the floating market at night, so he can take Coco home with him.But what I didn't expect was that Ke Ke refused, and he said that he could be alone at home.This well-behaved child knows that his brother is not easy and doesn't want to trouble others.Shi Tong agreed after careful consideration.Before he knew Huo Wencai, he left Ke Ke alone in the mansion and went out to find food by himself.

After Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui received their police pay, they changed shifts to work at night.

On this day, it also began to turn from summer to autumn.The suffocating police uniform is not so stuffy anymore.

On the day of the shift change, Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui arrived at five o'clock and then changed shifts with their brothers on the day shift. The two chatted in the red room.Since Shitong had already taken the bulk of the sales of rouge and gouache, he wanted to sell something else.It is best eaten.

"Hey~ You can sell sticky candies. Children love that stuff. It's chewy."

"What if the tea is sold?" Huo Wencai said.

"Tea tea is fine too!" Ma Wenrui clapped his hands and said.He often prescribes medicine for his father. He knows that an old doctor has tea that locals love to drink.

It was settled in the conversation.The night is shrouded, and the turbulent Guangzhou city in the troubled times is like a small boat floating in the night.After patrolling at night, Huo Wen decided to find a place to sleep after twelve o'clock and go back after two o'clock like Ma Wenrui.

When it was approaching midnight, the two patrolled separately, and after finishing, Ma Wenrui took Huo Wen to find a place to sleep.

When Huo Wencai was patrolling around with a gun, he saw a white-haired old man wandering the same way.

When I was on patrol, I saw this old man walking on the street, and now he is still wandering in place after turning back.

"Master, the family will be anxious if they don't go home at night." Huo Wen stepped forward and asked.

"I can't find my way home." The old man remembered turning around.

"Why can't you find it? I'll take you home." Huo Wencai said.

"I don't remember where my home is. Young boy, can you help me find out where my home is?" The old man anxiously grabbed Huo Wencai's hand, feeling the cold hand of the old man, Huo Wencai's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that thing?Probably not, I shouldn't be so unlucky to encounter such things as strange powers and chaos when I just transferred to work at night.

He comforted him: "Master, think about it carefully, where did you come from?"

"I'll think about it." The old man was anxious.

"Wen Cai—Wen Cai—" Ma Wenrui's voice came from not far away.Only then did Huo Wen reply, "I'm here!"

Ma Wenrui trotted over: "What are you doing here?"

"This old man—" Huo Wen took a look, but the old man had disappeared.

"What old man?" Ma Wenrui said.

"It's okay. Aren't you going to take me to a place to sleep? Let me see what a good place it is." Huo Wencai put his arm on Ma Wenrui's shoulder, and Ma Wenrui also hooked Huo Wenrui's shoulder and said with a proud smile: "I promise It's a good place."

Huo Wencai thought to himself: The old man really is that thing.

Huo Wencai followed Ma Wenrui to a dilapidated wooden house on Fengning Road.Ma Wenrui said, "Be careful, don't step on anyone."

Huo Wencai suddenly realized that there are other beggars living here.The two went up to the second floor of the wooden house.Looking at the leaky roof, the two of them were lying on the wooden floor covered with quilts. From this angle, they could still see the stars and the moon.

"What a great place."

"That's not true." Ma Wenrui said proudly.This place was occupied by a few beggars downstairs. Later, when Ma Wenrui was on patrol, he spotted the second floor of Loutian and took the place.And I guarantee that other beggars will not have ideas about this place.So the two parties came to an agreement.So Ma Wenrui would come here to sleep lazily every night.When the time is up, go back to sleep.

Both of them fell asleep.

When the bell tower in Guangzhou struck two o'clock, Ma Wenrui woke Huo Wencai up: "Brother, wake up. Let's go back." Huo Wencai yawned and followed Ma Wenrui back to the red room.After the two turned off the windows and lights of the red house, they went back separately.

"Jingle Bell……"

"Jingle Bell……"

Huo Wencai shook his head, obviously not getting enough sleep:

Strange, what are the figures jumping up and down in front of you?

Even closer, Huo Wencai was so frightened that he became sober - in front of him was a row of zombies!

Huo Wen hurriedly hid under the eaves. He secretly watched the row of zombies in front of him jump forward with the bell in the hands of the yellow-robed Taoist priest.Huo Wen suddenly remembered that the neighbors on Taiping Street once said that they had seen zombies enter the gate of Zhang's house on Taiping Street.

Thinking that it would be related to Zhang's house, Huo Wen quietly followed.The yellow-robed Taoist controlled the row of zombies to go to Zhang's mansion. After arriving, the gate of Zhang's mansion opened automatically, so the yellow-robed Taoist rang the bell to lure the zombies in.

After the last zombie jumped in, the gate of Zhang's house was automatically closed.

Huo Wen, who followed behind, reached the door of Zhang Jue's house. He didn't have the guts to knock on the door of Zhang Jue's house at this time.Who knows what will happen to those zombies and coffins inside?

I feel a chill just thinking about it.Huo Wen hurried home.

In the dark room in the backyard of Zhang's mansion, the yellow-robed Taoist priest counted the batch of zombies, and then placed an incense burner in front of each zombie and lit a cigarette: "Brothers, have a good night's rest. Let's go on our way tomorrow night."

Then he bowed and inserted the cigarette.

He walked to the front yard and sat on a chair. Zhang Absolutely said to the girl who was waiting behind him, "Wu Le, get Daoist Zhang something to eat."

"Yes, young master." The pale girl poured a cup of tea for the Taoist priest and retreated.

"This year I have to bother my little uncle more. If it weren't for my little uncle, I don't even have a place to stay in Guangzhou City. Our road is not easy." Zhang Daochang said.

"Well. Did you hear anything on the way."

"Little Martial Uncle, those people from the north are coming. Little Martial Uncle, let's change to another place." Daoist Zhang said seriously.

"No. No matter where I go, they will always chase me. It's been so many years, why not wait for them here in Guangzhou City. Make a break." Zhang Jue said.

From south to north, one place after another was changed.Is it necessary to let him avoid going to the West?

I have been running away, and there will be nowhere to go one day.So, it's better to just sit here and wait for them to come, so we can make a deal.

"Since the little uncle has made up his mind, if the little uncle needs it, you can call me at any time."

"Thank you very much." Zhang Jue smiled gently.

The next day, Huo Wencai took the tea to Chenghuang Temple to sell.There is also a support for the three stalls lined up together.

"Here, your tea leaves. It's fifteen yuan in total." Huo Wencai handed over the wrapped tea leaves, and the other party paid fifteen yuan.

Ma Wenrui made a bowl of rice balls for Keke to eat.Cocoa had a contented and happy smile on his face while eating.Huo Wencai said to Ma Wenrui, "Wenrui, have you ever seen a zombie?"

"No. Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"Do you still remember that someone on Taiping Street said they saw zombies?" Huo Wencai said.

"Remember, what. Did you see it?" Taiping Street, no, not just Taiping Street.Even in the entire city of Guangzhou, every street and alley has a different rumor.

"It's possible that I was wrong." Huo Wencai had no intention of telling Zhang Jue out.

"Boss, give me a bowl of Jiuniang Yuanzi."

"Come on." Ma Wenrui gave the visitor a bowl of rice dumplings.Huo Wen followed the voice and looked: Good guy, isn't this the Maoshan Taoist priest who chased the zombies last night? !

Ma Wenrui served Daoist Zhang a bowl of rice dumplings.Huo Wencai stepped forward: "Master Taoist, do you want some tea?"

"No."

"I think the Taoist priest looks really cool. What is the Taoist priest doing in Guangzhou?"

"Just pass by, stay here for a day and leave."
