incense shop owner

Perhaps it was the relaxed atmosphere in the incense shop that infected the little girl. The little girl gradually relaxed and walked out from behind Xia Guhan.

Pulling La Xia Guhan's clothes, he whispered, "Brother, I have seen that younger brother."

Xia Guhan was attracted by her words, squatted down, looked at the little girl at the same level, and asked softly: "Really? Do you remember where I saw it?"

The little girl tilted her head, thinking back seriously.

"Hmm..." She frowned tightly, as if recalling a bad scene, she began to tremble in fear.

Xia Guhan reached out and patted the little girl's back lightly, "If you can't remember it, don't think about it."

The little girl shook her head stubbornly.

"I remember."

The air around the incense shop suddenly trembled, and something changed.

Xia Guhan and Gu Jinnian were the first to notice something was wrong, they looked at each other without saying anything, and looked at the little girl at the same time.

Xia Peihe and Xiaomi also found out later, their eyes showed surprise.Seeing that Xia Guhan and Gu Jinnian did not respond, they also stood quietly aside.

As everyone knows, the world in the eyes of Xia Guhan and Gu Jinnian has changed at this moment.

The little girl released her consciousness and brought the two of them into her world.

***

The weather was gloomy, layers of dark clouds blocked the blue sky, the sky was low, the air was stuffy, and there was an eerie sense of tranquility before the storm.

In front is a four-story building, which is a bit old. The blue and white paint on the wall has been mottled and peeled off, and the moss has grown wantonly, painting patches of ink-like green.

There is a signboard hanging on the fence, the signboard has rusted, and the writing on it is not very clear, but if you look carefully, you can vaguely see the words "Town Health Center".

A dilapidated ambulance came from a distance and stopped outside the iron gate. Several people in white coats and masks got out of the car in a row, opened the rear door, and worked together to lift a stretcher off.

There was a woman on the stretcher who had already fallen into a coma, but her brows were still tightly furrowed, moaning as if nothing.

The belly under the blue quilt was swollen high, as if it was about to give birth.

The iron gate opened from the inside, and those men carried the woman into the hospital quickly.

There are already people waiting inside.

This kind of thing seems to happen every day, and the people in the hospital have seen the strange thing, and pushed the woman into an operating room in an orderly manner.

They didn't communicate the whole time, they were as silent as dumb.

The operating room is very simple, without even a disinfection area. The white walls are covered with black, black and red colors, and I don’t know what is contaminated. A strong smell wafts in the operating room. Sting makes people's nose itchy.

A pair of hands in medical gloves clattered and closed the blue curtain, and the doctor who had been waiting inside began to deliver the baby.

A few minutes later, the baby's powerful cry was heard.

"There are six fingers on the hand. It's a deformity. Throw it away."

The speaker's voice was very high-pitched, and it should have been specially processed so that people could not hear his original voice clearly.

When he said the words "throw it away", his tone was unwavering, not as if he was treating a life, but more like a cold dead thing.

Someone came in, picked up the newborn baby, and led her down a long corridor into a darkened room.

There was no light in the room, except for a little daylight from a small window.

Dozens of cribs were densely packed in the small room, and more than half of the cribs were filled with babies.They maintained the appearance of newborns, the amniotic fluid was not washed away, wrapped in blood, and even the umbilical cord was not cut off.

Without a dedicated person to take care of it, it was just thrown away in this small abandoned room like a waste product.

The newborn baby was placed on a small bed near the door. She didn't know what was waiting for her, and she just opened her mouth and cried more and more powerlessly.

I don't know how long it took, but someone came in again.

Put a bloody baby beside her, and talk while walking away.

"This one doesn't look deformed, why did you throw it away?"

"I heard from the doctor that I lost a soul..."

The conversation faded away.

The whole world is gradually stained with a thick layer of blackness.

***

The picture receded like the tide, and the scene in front of me changed back to the incense shop.

Xia Guhan took a while to recover from the dark scene, he looked down at the little girl.

The little girl's face was pale, and large beads of sweat slid down her forehead. It was obvious that Xia Guhan had just entered her consciousness to watch that memory, and it took the little girl a lot of effort.

Xia Guhan glanced at the old ghost.

Gu Jinnian understood, and put his hand on the little girl's forehead, a surging yin energy spread into the little girl's body, relieving her fatigue.

She is a ghost fetus. Although she is not afraid of sunlight and yang energy, she prefers yin energy, which can make her stronger.

The little girl's pale face regained some color.

She looked up at Gu Jinnian and whispered "Thank you."

"Can I see your left hand?"

Xia Guhan squatted in front of the little girl and asked softly.

The little girl's left hand tightly twisted the skirt, a little hesitant.

Xia Guhan waited patiently for her.

After a while, the little girl slowly stretched out her left hand.

That hand was small, with white and round knuckles, and indeed had five fingers, as if it was no different from ordinary people.

But if you look closely, you can still see a small scar on the left side of her little finger-it should be left after cutting off an extra finger.

Obviously, the memory that the little girl showed Xia Guhan just now is the memory of her birth.

"Okay, you can take it back." Xia Guhan didn't stare at the scar all the time, but moved away after just a glance.

The little girl immediately withdrew her hand, hid it behind her back, and clenched her fist anxiously.

At this moment, the black cat ran over suddenly, rubbed its head against the little girl, and made a urging cry, which sounded a little sad.

The little girl's face, which had just recovered, turned pale again, "Brother, I...I'm going back."

Her voice was urgent, like she was afraid she wouldn't be home in time.

"Okay, I'll take you back."

Xia Guhan got up and said to Xia Peihe: "Master, lend me the car."

Xia Peihe immediately threw the key to him, and asked uneasy: "Do you have a driver's license?"

He didn't believe that his apprentice would take the driver's license test because of his lazy character.

Sure enough, Xia Guhan froze.

He can drive, but has never bothered to get a driver's license.

"...Master, you should drive." Xia Guhan honestly handed back the car keys, "Please take me to Qunxiang Mountain."

Xia Peihe smiled as expected, took the key, "Let's go."

After speaking, go out first.

Xiaomi didn't follow, "Brother, you go, I'll leave it for you to watch the store."

Xia Guhan nodded, then turned to the little girl, "Let's go, I'll take you home."

The little girl stretched out her hand actively, pulled Xia Guhan by the corner of her clothes, and went out with Xia Guhan, the black cat was by her side, crying eagerly.

Xia Guhan heard it, and he and Xia Peihe quickened their pace.

Despite Xia Peihe's age, he drives very fiercely.When the supercar ran out of the urban area and drove on the winding road of Qunxiang Mountain, Xia Peihe completely let himself go, and was very happy on the winding road. The strong airflow made the two disks of vegetation on the road shake constantly, and the bright red The supercar left an afterimage.

Fortunately, none of the people sitting in his car were normal people, otherwise, if he was so crazy, he would have vomited before getting out of the car.

The 15-minute journey was abruptly shortened by Sharpeihe to about [-] minutes. When the supercar stopped, Sharpeihe still had an unsatisfied expression on his face.

Xia Guhan: "..."

He has nothing to say.

Silently sent the little girl and the black cat off the car, and watched them enter the villa before Xia Guhan went up to the Sharpei River and went back.

The supercar had just turned a corner when a white car drove up, the windows were closed, and the people inside could not be seen.But Xia Guhan felt a familiar aura, somewhat similar to the little girl's aura.

"Old ghost." Xia Guhan called out.

Needless to say, Gu Jinnian knew what Xia Guhan wanted him to do, so almost as soon as Xia Guhan finished speaking, Gu Jinnian followed the white car and left.

The tacit understanding between the two seems to have been cultivated over the years, a look and a word are enough to tacit understanding.

Xia Peihe didn't ask until he couldn't see the white car in the rearview mirror: "Little apprentice, how did you and Gu Jinnian meet?"

Xia Guhan yawned, drowsy, his voice was a bit vague, "I met you on the road."

He was expelled from the Xia family half a year ago and moved out from Xiajia Lane.

Pulling the suitcase and walking to the entrance of Xiajia Lane, he met Gu Jinnian who was planning to break the restriction at the entrance of Xiajia Lane.

The eyes of the two collided unpreparedly, and Xia Guhan suddenly felt dizzy, his eyes seemed to be covered by someone suddenly, everything was foggy, and the surrounding scenes were all far away from him, making it hard to see clearly .Only Gu Jinnian was clear, as if the light pierced through the morning mist, just fell in front of him.

When Xia Guhan regained consciousness, the ring finger of his left hand was bitten by Gu Jinnian, and Gu Jinnian swallowed his blood, and the covenant of life and death was inexplicably signed.

Since then, Gu Jinnian has been by his side, from Qinzhou City to Wuzhou City, never separated again.

Thinking of this, Xia Guhan couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and smiled softly, with a tenderness in his eyes that he didn't even realize.

Xia Peihe saw Xia Guhan through the rearview mirror inside the car, he couldn't help being taken aback, hesitated for a while and decided to ask: "Little apprentice, I met you on the road and married him, do you know him?"

——Do you know what kind of existence he is?You are married!

"I don't understand." Xia Guhan answered very directly, as soon as they met, they got married, how could they have time to understand?

But looking back now, I didn't seem to resist at that time, not only that, but my heartbeat seemed to be a lot faster, and there was a secret excitement.

So just go with the flow and be together naturally.

Xia Guhan is very lazy, even lazy to think.

Half a year has passed, and he didn't spend time and energy thinking about why he was so special to Gu Jinnian.

It seemed that there was a natural invisible trust between him and Gu Jinnian, and everything seemed to be the best arrangement.

Xia Peihe still understood his apprentice. Seeing Xia Guhan like this, he understood that no matter who Gu Jinnian was, in Xia Guhan's eyes, he was just Gu Jinnian without any additional identity.

But soon, Sharpeihe also calmed down.

As celestial masters, they value cause and effect the most, maybe Xia Guhan and Gu Jinnian have been entangled in cause and effect for a long time.

Looking away, Xia Peihe was no longer obsessed with this problem, stepped on the accelerator, and the bright red supercar sped out on the winding mountain road, drifting away from Qunxiang Mountain like a dragon.

Xia Guhan was not affected by the speed of the car at all, sitting in the passenger seat, he fell asleep as motionless as a mountain.

the other side.

Gu Jinnian followed the white car and finally stopped at the villa in the middle of the mountain.

It is the little girl's home.

After the car was parked in the garage, a tall woman got out of the car. Gu Jinnian had seen the memory of the little girl, and felt very familiar with the woman's face.

This woman is the woman lying on the stretcher at the beginning of the little girl's memory, that is, the little girl's mother.

The woman left the garage and came to the small garden.

Seeing the little girl sitting on the swing from a distance, the woman raised the corners of her lips and smiled.

The little girl flinched and lowered her head.

"Come here." The woman beckoned to the little girl, her tone was not affectionate, but it was like calling a pet that would come and go when it was beckoned.

Although the little girl was afraid, she didn't dare to disobey. She jumped off the swing and walked towards the woman dawdly.

The woman thought she was walking too slowly, so she took the initiative to grab the little girl's hand and roughly pulled her into the villa.

Gu Jinnian followed.

The overall decoration of the villa is white, which looks cold, and the lines of the furniture are also straight, without a trace of curvature.

The woman leads the little girl into a bedroom.

No, it should not be called a bedroom, but a small operating room.

She grabbed the girl's hand, disinfected her wrist with alcohol, took a scalpel, and cut open the artery on the girl's wrist. The blood kept gushing from the girl's wrist, and it didn't take long to fill a bowl full of it. .

A girl's blood is different from that of an ordinary person.

It is also red, but the girl's blood is clearer, without a trace of impurities, it is the brightest red.

The woman held the bowl of blood with an obsessed look in her eyes. She held the bowl to the tip of her nose and sniffed it lightly, like a drug addict who is mad when he sees drugs.

Afterwards, the woman raised her head and poured down the blood in one breath, her lips were stained bright red by the blood.

The little girl has been standing quietly beside the woman, with her head lowered, trembling uncontrollably.The wound on her wrist has healed automatically, and the scar next to her little finger is particularly hideous.

After the woman drank the blood, she walked to a mirror and carefully looked at herself in the mirror.Her skin became fairer to the naked eye, and the fine lines around her eyes gradually faded away. In just a short while, she looked two or three years younger.

The woman is very pleased with the result.

She walked up to the little girl, stroked the little girl's hair, with an extremely gentle expression on her face, and said in a loving tone: "Hey, go out and play."

The little girl shook, and ran out with her head down.

***

When Gu Jinnian returned to the incense shop, Xia Peihe and Xiaomi had already left.

Before Xia Peihe left, he looked at Xia Guhan with disgust, looked down on Xia Guhan's fashion taste very much, and planned to catch Xia Guhan to go shopping in the mall.

Xia Gu was lazy and didn't want to move.

Like growing on a recliner, no matter how much Sharpey pulls, he can't get up.

Xia Peihe is well aware of Xia Guhan's virtue, so he just gives up and leaves with Xiaomi.

When Gu Jinnian entered the door, he saw Xia Guhan slumped on the recliner. Hearing the movement, he glanced at Gu Jinnian and touched his stomach, "I'm hungry."

"What do you want to eat?" Gu Jinnian spontaneously walked to the kitchen to prepare lunch for Xia Guhan.

Xia Guhan didn't even bother to think about what to eat, "I'll eat whatever you cook."

"Row."

After saying that, the person had already entered the kitchen, and came out ten minutes later with a bowl of delicious fried rice with eggs.

The food slightly resisted Xia Guhan's laziness, he got up from the recliner, took the bowl that Gu Jinnian handed over, and asked while eating: "What did you see?"

Gu Jinnian: "You eat first."

Afraid that Xia Guhan would choke, he went to the kitchen and brought out a small bowl of soup.

Xia Guhan guessed that if Gu Jinnian didn't say anything now, he must have seen something bad. He was afraid that if he said it, he wouldn't be able to eat.

That being the case, Xia Guhan naturally didn't waste Gu Jinnian's good intentions. He took a few minutes to finish his meal before looking at Gu Jinnian, "Can we talk now?"

"Drink the soup again." Gu Jinnian pointed to the soup bowl.

Xia Guhan pushed away the bowl, "I'm full, I don't want to drink."

Gu Jinnian didn't force him, and succinctly described the scene he saw in the group photo in the villa in the middle of the mountain.

From the beginning to the end, Xia Guhan's expression did not change, but after Gu Jinnian finished speaking, he was silent for a long time.

that woman...

Perhaps the woman who can call her the girl's mother wants to drink her blood to keep her youthful beauty after raising a little girl for so many years.

Ghost fetuses are neither ghosts nor humans. They are special existences when they are born. Because of their specialness, their lifespan is not long, and they don't even grow.What you were born with is what you will be a few years later.

When Xia Guhan saw the little girl for the first time, he knew that she was a ghost, but it was also a different ghost because she could grow.

Not only that, but the girl originally had six fingers on her left hand, but one was broken through surgery.Ghost fetuses are not ordinary children, and ordinary doctors cannot operate on ghost fetuses at all.

Could it be a spiritual doctor again?

Xia Guhan frowned, becoming more and more puzzled.

What's the relationship between that girl and Su Yuewei and his wife?Where is the abandoned hospital?

He just felt that there was a cloud of fog shrouded in front of him, and he couldn't see clearly.

A pair of cold hands pressed against Xia Guhan's eyebrows, and gently rolled away Xia Guhan's tightly knit brows.

Xia Guhan looked up at Gu Jinnian.

Gu Jinnian's slender fingers slid across his brow, and finally landed on his ear, gently pinching Xia Guhan's earlobe, "Don't think about it if you don't understand it, there will always be a clue."

Xia Guhan's earlobe is very thick, soft and fleshy. Gu Jinnian loves it very much. He often likes to bite his teeth, but he is not willing to use force. After taking a bite, he even kisses it as comfort.

Every time at this time, Xia Guhan would be very excited, and the end of his eyes would be as red as a peach.

But at this moment, Xia Guhan patted Gu Jinnian's hand away, slumped on the recliner like a cat, and muttered: "I will become more and more lazy, and I have nothing to do with you."

Sometimes he really can't see through Gu Jinnian and urges him to be the most active in hunting ghosts, but he always indulges him in life.

It's a bit contradictory.

Xia Guhan was stunned, took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Master.

Xia Guhan: Master, help me find Pei Ze, Su Yuewei and his wife.

Xia Peihe, as the vice president of the Celestial Masters Association, will be much more convenient than Xia Guhan in searching for information.

Soon he received a reply from Sharpeihe.

Tear the little old man: No problem.

Tear the little old man: panda head ok.jpg

Xia Guhan stared at the panda head portrait for a while, then decisively put away the phone.

With such a master, he seems to never be able to get used to it.

***

The case is still full of clues, but until new clues come out, Xia Guhan can't do anything for the time being, and he is lazy, lazily nestling in the store after lunch, not going anywhere.

At noon, a few customers came to the store, all of them were grandmothers who came to buy joss sticks and ingots. Seeing Xia Guhan tease him habitually.No way, who made Xia Guhan look good, especially the aunts?

Another afternoon of doing nothing passed.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Xia Guhan kicked the old ghost who was sitting in front of the counter reading a novel, "Go and close the door."

Gu Jinnian confiscated his mobile phone, and with a thought, the door of the incense shop was about to fall down.

Seeing that the door was about to close, an urgent voice came from the door, "Little Boss, wait!"

It was Zhou Zhiqiang's voice.

Xia Guhan's eyes lit up, usually when Zhou Zhiqiang came, he would send him money.

Gu Jinnian felt the same way, so the door that was about to close opened again.

Zhou Zhiqiang, who was sweating from running, waited at the door for a while before walking in.

"Little boss." Zhou Zhiqiang smiled so attentively that his eyes almost narrowed together.

Xia Guhan reluctantly sat up from the recliner, raised his eyelids, "What's the matter?"

"Little boss, if someone wants to ask you for help, please ask me to find out." Zhou Zhiqiang said a little nervously: "I wonder if you would like to go and have a look."

Xia Guhan snorted, "Didn't you already send someone over?"

Still pretending that he didn't know who Pei Ze and Su Yuewei found him through?

Zhou Zhiqiang knew that he couldn't hide it from Xia Guhan, but Xia Guhan punctured him as soon as he came, and his heart still missed a beat. He almost couldn't catch his breath, so he quickly explained the matter clearly.

Su Yuewei knew about Xia Guhan through the video that went viral on the Internet a few days ago. Pei Ze is a person who is willing to spoil his wife. Knowing that his wife wanted to know Xia Guhan, she went directly to the filming party of "The Cry of the Ancient House", and the filming party found it again. Zhou Zhiqiang.

Under the temptation of Pei Ze's money, Zhou Zhiqiang told Pei Ze the address of the incense shop.

Because he knew that he couldn't hide it from Xia Guhan, Zhou Zhiqiang also made full preparations when he came.

He directly handed over the introduction fee that Pei Ze gave him to Xia Guhan, "Boss, this is the introduction fee from Mr. Pei, it's all here, you take it."

Xia Guhan didn't answer, and only said: "Since it's an introduction fee, you collect it yourself..."

Of course, Xia Guhan would not let go of the opportunity to pluck the wool, "Since the other party wants to find me, I'll take [-]%, isn't it too much?"

"Not too much! Not too much!" Zhou Zhiqiang said very well, immediately took out half of the money from the red envelope, put it into his pocket, and handed the red envelope to Xia Guhan.

Xia Guhan only accepted it this time, squeezed it, and was very satisfied with the thickness.

"Tell me, who is looking for me this time?"

Zhou Zhiqiang wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and said, "It's the Zhou family in Xiangling City."

Xiangling City is not far from Wuzhou City. If you take the high-speed rail, it is less than an hour.

The Starlight Entertainment incident was a big one. Ordinary people may not know what happened to Starlight Entertainment, but some wealthy families can still find out a little bit.After all, many people were involved in the matter of Starlight Entertainment at that time. Whether it was for self-protection or for falling into trouble, some people had inquired about it, and vaguely knew that some things could not be explained by science.

Zhou Zhiqiang is one of the few managers in Starlight Entertainment who has not been imprisoned. Some people speculate whether Zhou Zhiqiang has something to do with the expert who solved the Starlight Entertainment incident, and they went through Zhou Zhiqiang to catch Xia Guhan.

The Zhou family in Xiangling City is one of them.

Xia Guhan actually didn't want to move when he heard that he was going to travel far away, but when he heard the reward that the Zhou family was willing to give, Xia Guhan was still moved.

"I took it."

***

Early the next morning, the person from the Zhou family who came to pick up Xia Guhan appeared at the door of the incense shop.

In order to show sincerity, the person here is the young master of the Zhou family.

Xia Guhan was taken aback when he saw the person coming.

Because this young master looks seventy percent similar to the little girl, especially those eyes, which seem to be carved out of the same mold.

The author has something to say: Xia Peihe: I, the trendiest old man in comics!
