You are not human

Chapter 23 Candid

"It's okay." Yin Bei put on a blank face, trying to make his voice sound convincing, "I'm still a little scared."

"Really?" Ao Jinyu seemed a little confused, trying to find some proof from his face.

Yin Bei raised his hand to push his hairy head away, looked at the old Taoist and changed the subject: "What's wrong with him?"

Only then did Ao Jinyu let go of continuing to struggle with this issue. He knelt down to examine the old Taoist priest's body at the door, and couldn't help frowning: "He has been dead for several months, how could he suddenly become corrupt?"

He looked at Yin Bei for proof, "What happened?"

Yin Bei raised his eyebrows, and said maliciously, "Didn't you say it was a chemical reaction?"

"Uh..." Ao Jinyu stuck his shell, touched his nose guiltily, and his eyes wandered, "That's the one..."

Yin Bei snorted and told him the truth about the situation just now: "He didn't seem to know that he was dead just now, and he always regarded himself as a living person."

"It's strange. Generally, the soul of a mortal will leave the body after death. His situation must not have been formed naturally." Ao Jinyu walked around the old Taoist's body and found a piece of money from the paper money at his feet. Zhang Fanhuang spell.

"Ah! So it's because of this."

He squeezed the talisman, showing a little pitiful expression, "Someone trapped his dead soul in his body, making him mistakenly think he was still alive. It's just that this kind of forcible restraint has done a lot of damage to the soul body. Now his cognition is confused, and his memory It’s damaged, I’m afraid it’s not easy to ask questions.”

"I'll send a message to Director Huang first, asking him to ask the people from Hades to come. They are professional in dealing with ghosts."

Now that Ao Jinyu had passed the news, Yin Bei didn't do it himself. He nodded, and then Ao Jinyu remembered that he had said a bunch of gods and ghosts again, and gave him a guilty look.

Yin Bei was amused by him: "I've been through everything, you can say it if you want to."

"Oh!" Ao Jinyu became elated for some reason.

Yin Bei looked around the dilapidated Taoist temple and was about to go to the main hall. Ao Jinyu was still studying the old Taoist priest, so he raised his head and quickly stopped him: "Hey! Beibei, don't run around alone!"

Yin Bei had no choice but to stop and wait for him: "Then you want to go inside with me to have a look?"

"Here we come!" Ao Jinyu happily ran over, "You stand behind me, I'll go in first!"

He pushed open the door of the main hall, and in the center should be the Taoist Sanqing, but at this moment, the colored sculpture of the Sanqing was painted black, and the head was smashed open, and the fragments fell to the ground.

Ao Jinyu frowned: "It's so evil."

Yin Bei walked around the room, not to mention that the incense was extinguished in the main hall, the idol was broken, and even the ground was covered with a layer of dust. It seemed that no one had been there for a long time.

The guy who wanted to stay here had a lot of hatred for Sanqing, and he didn't come here much after it was smashed.

He stepped on the ground lightly and listened carefully to the echo: "There is still room below."

Ao Jinyu's eyes lit up: "Is there a secret room?"

"What kind of secret room?" Yin Bei felt amused, "At most there is a cellar, maybe it's full of Chinese cabbage."

"Oh." Ao Jinyu scratched his head, "I thought there would be a scene like in TV dramas where a floor is opened and it turns out to be a secret passage."

"If it's a cellar, I just saw a cover on the outside, maybe it's the entrance."

He dragged Yin Bei outside again, and confessed uneasy, "Follow me closely! Maybe there are dangerous guys inside!"

When they returned to the courtyard, Ao Jinyu cautiously lifted the lid of the cellar, an unspeakable smell rushed up, Ao Jinyu screamed and covered his nose.

Yin Bei didn't expect that there was a hidden weapon hidden underneath, so he pressed his wrist with his backhand: "What's wrong?"

Ao Jinyu covered his nose, showing pain on his face: "It stinks!"

Yin Bei: "..."

The smell in this cellar is indeed indescribable. The strong smell of blood and rancidity, and the fact that there is no ventilation all year round, is heavier than the smell of ordinary slaughterhouses.

But he didn't expect that Ao Jinyu's big reaction was because of this.

Yin Bei's expression was indescribable. He touched his pocket and took out a pack of tissues: "Stuff the rolls in your nose."

"No..." Ao Jinyu showed a disgusted expression.

This dragon actually has some idol baggage.

Yin Bei was thinking about whether to stuff the tissue up his nose, Ao Jinyu took a quick look at Yin Bei: "Don't you think it stinks?"

"It stinks, but it's bearable." Yin Bei thought for a while and added, "But I heard that small animals are generally more sensitive to smells."

Ao Jinyu, who has been promoted to a small animal: "..."

Xiao Jinlong rubbed his nose depressedly, "Forget it, I can hold my breath, I'll go down and have a look, do you want to go down too?"

He muttered, "I don't think there should be anything interesting down here, are you afraid of blood?"

Judging from the strong smell of blood, the place below is at least similar to a murder scene. If possible, it is better not to let him see it.

But Ao Jinyu has only been with Yin Bei for a few days, but he has already seen that this person does not listen to persuasion.

"Not afraid." Yin Bei made a gesture to go down first, "Are you going?"

"Go! I'll go ahead!" Ao Jinyu hurried down ahead of him.

The light from the entrance of the cellar could only allow them to vaguely see the situation inside, and there were no too bloody and cruel scenes. Ao Jinyu was slightly relieved, and then frowned.

There was no blood on the corpse below, but the bloody aura was so strong that the source was found to be the large water tank in the center of the cellar.

Ao Jinyu stared at the big water tank that could not be hugged by one person thoughtfully—couldn't this be the place where the ghost in the tank was hiding?

Yin Bei seemed to be going straight to the jar, but Ao Jinyu opened the jar before him, completely blocking him, and took a peek first.

"What's there?" Yin Bei didn't try to compete with him, but asked him directly.

Ao Jinyu shook his head: "Only the weird hair in the suitcase last time, nothing else."

"They should have all run away."

"Yeah." Yin Bei wasn't surprised. The guy didn't show his face at all before, and he acted very cautiously. He felt that there was danger. It's not impossible to run away with the ghost in the jar early.

He glanced at the water tank, "But it's not that there are no clues at all, at least now we know that they should have something to do with the apprentice of the old Taoist named 'Zhengxin'."

"Yeah." Ao Jinyu nodded, but didn't say what was on his mind.

This is the place where the ghost in the pot is kept. It has abandoned this pot, and probably needs to replace it with a bigger one. How many people will a ghost in a pot of this size have to eat...

Also, Lao Zhang's body was not seen either. Thinking of the habit of the ghost in the pot, I'm afraid they ate up all of them.

Ao Jinyu glanced at the phone, there was no signal for the time being, he frowned, and Yin Bei beside him pulled him: "There seems to be something over there."

"You usually have a good nose..." Yin Bei paused, "Oh, you held your breath."

He dragged Ao Jinyu to the corner of the cellar, pointed to the ground, "There should be something down here."

"Let me come!" Ao Jinyu squatted down, took out a short knife from nowhere, concentrated on digging the ground, and after a while, he dug out a somewhat tattered blood-stained clothes from the ground.

"There is really something!" Ao Jinyu was a little surprised, "How did you find out?"

"Instinct." Yin Bei squatted down with a calm expression, "I think monsters eat people and don't like to eat clothes, just like I eat rice dumplings and don't eat skin."

"But I didn't see it around, so I wondered if it was buried."

Ao Jinyu: "..."

What a wonderful metaphor.

There was a sound of footsteps at the door, Ao Jinyu turned around reflexively, twisted the short knife in his hand, and stopped Yin Bei behind him, "Be careful, there is a ghost..."

Lian Chunjun covered his lips and smiled: "It's me."

"I just sent you a message, no one read it? Why are you so scared?"

"There is no signal in the cellar." Yin Bei turned his head, "You..."

He paused his gaze on Zhang Xiaobao, obviously feeling the difference in him, then pretended not to notice and looked back, and finished the second half of the sentence, "...Why are you here?"

Only then did Ao Jinyu relax: "Oh, I was shocked."

"Yes, Director Huang showed us the way, so we stayed there to deal with those two old guys. After all, they are mortals, so if we deal with it, we will call the police." Mr. Lianchun smiled and rolled his eyes, "Director Huang all the way But I complained a lot, and you will be nagged by him when you go back."

Ao Jinyu scratched his head embarrassingly: "Oh... But I'm afraid we have to call the police here too."

He pointed to the clothes buried in the ground, "I'm afraid there are quite a few victims."

Lian Chunjun's expression turned serious: "Only these, and nothing else?"

"I'm afraid they will all be eaten up by the ghost in the pot." Ao Jinyu stopped speaking in the middle of his words, glanced at Zhang Xiaobao, and comforted him awkwardly, "Old Zhang is a monster, maybe he can find something..."

He grimaced, thinking that finding a part of his body probably wasn't consolation.

"...It's okay, it's good if we can find the relic." Zhang Xiaobao smiled wryly, "It's a pity that I haven't seen him for a long time, maybe I can't recognize his relic even if I see it."

"You don't know what clothes to wear, so think about the ones you always carry around with you?" Lian Chunjun said comfortingly, Zhang Xiaobao reacted: "Yes, the ring! He must be wearing the wedding ring all the time!"

Ao Jinyu cheered up: "I'll dig it for you! It might be hard to find it so small..."

"It's okay, I'll do it myself." Zhang Xiaobao lowered his head, "I'll do it myself..."

Yin Bei gave Ao Jinyu a hand, and he scratched his head belatedly: "Then we'll go out and wait for you."

The two left the cellar together, and Mr. Lian Chun stood guard at the door of the cellar.

Ao Jinyu quickly ran two steps to the side, took a few deep breaths of fresh air, and only then eased his complexion.

Yin Bei chuckled, Ao Jinyu turned his head to look at him, waved to him nervously, and Yin Bei took two steps closer.

Ao Jinyu lowered his voice and asked, "Can I ask questions now?"

Yin Bei nodded.

"You've actually known about ghosts and gods for a long time, right?" He looked at Yin Bei eagerly, "You don't look scared or surprised, you should have come into contact with them a long time ago."

"but……"

"But I told you that I don't believe in ghosts and gods." Yin Bei followed his words, "I just wanted to hide it from you on purpose."

He stood with his usual indifferent expression, almost no emotion could be seen on his face.

Ao Jinyu blinked slowly: "Then you admit it now, does it prove that our relationship has improved?"

Yin Bei: "..."

"How did you develop the habit of only thinking of the best in everything?"
