[Old Nine Gates] Homecoming

After drinking a glass of wine, gut-piercing heat rushed out of his throat.Yu Manli gritted her teeth and exhaled, "Why is it so strong?"

Zhang Qishan shook the wine bottle: "It's more than 50 degrees."

Yu Manli glared at him: "Why didn't you say it earlier."

"You didn't ask, why should I say that?" Zhang Qishan was very innocent.

Yu Manli shook her head: "I really fell for you."

After a while, Yu Manli said, "Buddha, I envy you."

"Envy me? Because I have too many clothes?" Zhang Qishan didn't know if he really drank too much, so he made a joke with Yu Manli.

Yu Manli glared at Zhang Qishan with a smile, then rested her elbows on her knees and held her chin: "Master Buddha, do you know? Although the nine gates are intertwined, at least you are not alone. You have a friend like Boss Qi and an adjutant Such a close friend. Although the world is big, there is always a place for you."

Zhang Qishan took a sip of wine: "If you want, you can come to Jiumen anytime."

Yu Manli was half surprised and half smiled: "Me? Aren't you always afraid that I'm a spy sent by your old enemy?"

Zhang Qishan said: "Then I will turn against you and let you be my double agent."

Yu Manli smiled slightly: "Heh, it seems that I'm not completely useless." There was a bit of sweetness in her heart.

Zhang Qishan warmed up the wine bottle and handed it to Yu Manli: "If you're 'useless', you can stay in the Nine Gates. There are too many lonely families in the Nine Gates, and there will never be one more of you."

It doesn't mean that Manli opened her mouth, Zhang Qishan said: "You know the fortune teller, my mother passed away early, and my father died too. As for me, my father left before I came to Changsha. Everyone is the same alone, but it's also We have become relatives to each other. If you really want to, the door of the Nine Gates will always be open for you. Manli, you deserve to be treated well by others."

Yu Manli's heart was hit hard.She took a shallow look at Zhang Qishan; she was afraid that if she looked deeply, she would not be able to get out.

A shooting star suddenly flashed across the sky.

Zhang Qishan tilted his head: "Make a wish."

Yu Manli turned around, really put down the wine bottle, shook hands, and made a wish: "I hope I can find my home and family as soon as possible."

Zhang Qishan drank the rest of Yu Manli's wine: "This is the first time I've met someone who expressed his wish."

Yu Manli didn't speak.

Whether the wish works or not is not something that can be decided by a shooting star.

"Then what are you going to do next?" Zhang Qishan's question always seemed to be cross-examination, concise and clear.

Yu Manli said: "I'm leaving. It's not that I can't enter the tomb to search for my life experience. The Ghost Festival is over again. If it's really impossible, I'll look for it next year."

The shirt on Zhang Qishan's body was tough, but his tone was not as tough as that: "Wait a few more days. At least let the fortune teller do a fortune telling for you first."

Yu Manli lowered her eyes.How could she fail to see that Qi Tiezui was not unwilling to count for her, but that he really couldn't.Since she couldn't even figure out whether she was evenly matched, she didn't have any hope.

"Okay, then I'll stay for a few more days and let the fortune teller do another divination."

She really wants to stay.But this is a lie.

Hey Buddha, why do you feel numb and convulsive?

Just after seven o'clock, Yu Manli came down from upstairs wearing a large sweater.There was a faint damp smell on the sweater, as if it hadn't been worn for a long time in the bottom of the box.Looking at the style and size, Yu Manli guessed that it should belong to Buddha.Qi Tiezui is more "old school", and the few scarves that were hung out yesterday are by no means what young people of this era should wear.

When I went downstairs, I saw Qi Tiezui eating breakfast.

Qi Tiezui greeted first: "The Buddha specifically told you not to disturb you and let you sleep in. You woke up too early. Hey, the Buddha asked later. You have to make it clear that you started it yourself and no one quarreled." You." As he spoke, he poured Yu Manli a cup of freshly brewed soybean milk.

Yu Manli couldn't help laughing: "Boss Qi, you are so talkative, you shouldn't be called Tiezui, you should be called Dazui. By the way, where is Buddha?"

Qi Tiezui stuffed a big biscuit into his mouth and said after chewing, "Let's go, he's very busy."

Yu Manli felt lost for a moment.

Qi Tiezui immediately caught the change of Yu Manli's mood.He asked gossipingly: "Manli, what did you and Buddha do last night? Why do I feel that something ulterior must have happened to you two last night."

Yu Manli sat down pretending to be natural, and took a sip of soy milk: "What can I do? Didn't I say it before, I want to find the silver nails and ropes that fell when I went to visit the tomb, and the Buddha happened to be taking a walk outside, so let's go together gone."

Qi Tie smacked his lips, with a look of "I don't believe it": "Buddha doesn't like to take walks."

Yu Manli ignored him and ate a slice of bread by herself.

Qi Tiezui changed the subject, and jokingly asked casually: "But Manli, you told the Buddha earlier that you went to the well to find the secrets of your life experience. What kind of tomb is the tomb under the well? What kind of danger did you encounter that day? Could it be related to the black corpse coffin?"

Yu Manli's hand paused invisibly for a moment, and then she replied calmly: "Boss Qi, speaking of my life experience, I suddenly remembered that you haven't even told me a fortune yet."

Qi Tiezui choked up, so he could only curl his lips.

But fortune tellers know how to attack the heart best. Judging from Yu Manli's seemingly flawless replies, she is hiding and changing the subject.

Qi Tiezui asked with a smile: "Manli, do you know that you have a weakness?"

"... Weaknesses?" Yu Manli's cheeks were flushed, and it took a while before she dared to raise one corner of her eyes to secretly look at Qi Tiezui. Could it be that someone overheard what she and Zhang Qishan said yesterday?

Qi Tiezui Conan put on his glasses: "You don't know how to lie to people you don't think are your enemies."

Zhang Qishan looked at the neat inspection report on the desk: "What is this?"

Zhang Rishan stood straight across from him in uniform, and explained from his right hand side: "There was a lot of blood at the scene, but the blood did not belong to the deceased alone. The forensic doctor also extracted the DNA of another person from it."

"Who? Did you continue to investigate?"

Zhang Rishan pulled a chair and sat down, it seemed that he was going to have a long talk.He pointed to the second report on the left: "This person's surname is Wang, and the name in the file is Wang Qijun. He was born in 60. If he lived to this day, he would be an old man in his [-]s. And the reason why we can His information was found in the gene bank because of an old incident.

"On July 1997, 7, Hong Kong returned to China, and the whole country celebrated together. But while celebrating, there were still some forces at home and abroad that obstructed China's reunification, and many of them were superstitious. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, we have always believed in Marx's atheism, and the leaders naturally did not take this kind of thing seriously. But just the day before the return, a man named Wang Qijun suddenly found one of the leaders , saying that someone is moving the 'imperial tomb'."

When Zhang Rishan said this, he paused.

The so-called imperial mausoleum is a crystal coffin, but this kind of saying is only circulated among tomb robbers, and it is a "black talk" in the industry.After all, this coffin has neither a gold coffin and a silver tomb, nor fine pottery and coarse ingots. It is said that there are no Taoist organs, so it cannot be compared with the real imperial tombs in history.

Zhang Qishan understood that this person should be their colleague in the tomb robbery.And those who have a little contact with low-level people will not think that this Wang Qijun is a good person.

Zhang Rishan continued: "Lord Buddha, you are right. At that time, no one cared about his words, and even regarded him as a demagogic reactionary. So he was arrested immediately. He disappeared under surveillance. Both the public security armed police and the military launched a large-scale secret search, fearing that this person would really cause trouble, but there was no trace of this person at all. Until July [-], just after midnight, he unexpectedly reappeared In the place where he was held before, he still held half a crystal coffin in his arms, his body was covered in blood, and he was already dead."

Zhang Qishan lowered his eyelashes, as if mourning for him.

Then asked: "Could it be that he didn't actually die, and the news of his death was announced just to protect him?"

"It's also possible, but it's unlikely. Because there is no need to let everyone know that a person who has never appeared before has died. Wouldn't it be more suspicious if those who knew his existence heard about his death?"

Zhang Rishan nodded.

"But how did you get these materials?"

Zhang Rishan said: "The results of DNA identification showed that there was a successful comparison object in the gene bank, but when I went to search for the object, I couldn't find who it was. So I used my authority to search the old files in the intelligence center, and found this Old things."

Zhang Qishan patted the adjutant's shoulder: "You've done a good job." Then he said softly: "Another dead person, and a 'very important' dead person..."

Zhang Rishan was puzzled: "Buddha, what do you mean is another dead person?"

Zhang Qishan paused for a while, then patted the armrest of the big wooden chair, stood up and said, "I have to go to the tea village to find a fortune teller."

Zhang Rishan quickly stopped him: "Wait, Lord Buddha, there is one more thing."

"Say." Zhang Qishan didn't turn his head back.

"Last night, Old Dog Wu sent a letter to his home. It was sent by carrier pigeon. I saw that there was an 'official seal' of 'Admiral of the Nine Gates' on it, and it was not pressed on the seam, so I quickly read it in advance. On the letter Said to meet you on the Bajiao Bridge in Wazhai at 10 o'clock this morning."

Zhang Qishan suddenly stood still: "Why are you talking now?"

Zhang Rishan pointed to the phone, and made a virtual stroke in the air, which meant that someone might be listening and it was inconvenient to make a call.

Zhang Qishan raised his forehead: "Then you should have said it when you saw me just now!"

Zhang Rishan was even more aggrieved: "Lord Buddha, you just said last time that when you report, you must first report the matter to the police, and the matter of Jiumen will be released later. You are not going to give me the last time you punished me for running [-] meters. Forget it?"

Zhang Qishan was almost dizzy: a young man who went out to be arrogant, how come he is so stupid and sweet when he comes to him.

"Okay, let's continue to investigate Wang Qijun."

Zhang Rishan saluted: "Yes, what Buddha said is correct!"
