Master's professionalism

Chen Wang's second apprentice, that is, Xue Xiaoyan's second senior brother, is Zhu Yuze, and Hu Liting told him that he is the "not Zhu Bajie" in the group.Chen Wang said that the commission he took this time was a bit strange, so Zhu Yuze asked him before accepting it. He asked Zhu Yuze to go, but he had to contact him regularly, but something happened on the first day he went. He wanted to ask about the commission. But the other side called first to ask for someone, saying that they had made an appointment but no one came. Chen Wang did his calculations after receiving the news, and it turned out that he was no longer in Yangshi.

When Xue Xiaoyan heard the hexagram, Xue Xiaoyan knew that this matter was no small matter. If the people were gone outside the village, it might be plotted by someone, but if the problem was in the village, it would be another matter. Which kind, they will definitely send someone to look at it, maybe they can be rescued.

Chen Wang said: "I don't know the specific situation over there yet, so I want you, little fox, to take Yan'er to take a look."

Hu Liting was a little hesitant when he heard the words: "I still know Xiaoer's strength. Since he has fallen, it must not be easy. Xiaoyan has not started yet and will not control Yin Qi. It is too dangerous to go together."

Chen Wang shook his head: "It's good for Yan'er to get in touch with her more. This time, you guys are mainly going to check it out. If it's too dangerous, just stay on guard. I'll take care of it."

Hu Liting said: "But master, I myself..." Before he finished speaking, Chen Wang interrupted him with a wave: "I know you can solve it, this time your task is to protect Yan'er, what can Xiao Ze do?" Save as soon as possible, this matter is settled, you take the first flight tomorrow morning."

In the evening, Chen Wang went to Xue Xiaoyan's room. He was about to go to bed at that time. Chen Wang said that he would leave after a few words: "You must remember to bring the magic weapon, the little fox can't usually see it, but In fact, I value my family very much, I am afraid that he will be impulsive and his mind will not be clear, although it is okay to protect you, but I am afraid that he will go to save others regardless, this time when you go over, you should persuade more."

Xue Xiaoyan nodded in agreement, but she didn't understand some things clearly.Although he had never met Zhu Yuze before, he would inevitably be worried if he called him Second Senior Brother, not to mention that Hu Liting and Zhu Yuze had known each other for a long time, and he didn't think Hu Liting was that impulsive A person who is so irrational, after all, even if this kind of thing really happened, he might not be able to persuade him.

The next day, Xue Xiaoyan hung the ring around her neck with a red thread, hid it in her clothes, packed up a few more clothes, and went to the airport with Hu Liting.

When Hu Liting saw Xue Xiaoyan, his eyes were very strange, but he couldn't describe where the strangeness was. He just stared at him so hard that his heart was furious. Xue Xiaoyan asked him what happened, and Hu Liting said, "I just think you It has a very familiar smell."

Xue Xiaoyan heard this, smelled himself all over, and said, "I don't have the habit of wearing perfume."

Hu Liting was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said no, then shut up and didn't speak again, but still looked at Xue Xiaoyan with that strange look all the way.

Their destination is a place called Yongfu Village in S City. The village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a good environment, a large area, and a large population. Especially famous.

The person who received them was the village head of Yongfu Village, named Jin Kangle, who complained as soon as he saw them, probably saying that they delayed his work by releasing his pigeons, complained all the way, and finally bored Hu Liting and hummed He stopped his mouth only once.As a result, after getting off the car, Jin Kangle couldn't talk anymore, and kept complaining to Xue Xiaoyan in a low voice that Hu Liting was too cold. Xue Xiaoyan knew that Hu Liting was in a bad mood, so at first he was very friendly to comfort Jin Kangle, but later he was annoyed by the reading. Also imitated Hu Liting snorted and stopped talking.

Although Yongfu Village is not in the deep mountains and old forests, it is considered remote. After taking a car from the airport, there is still a small road to walk. The farmland is green and lush, and it makes me feel good when I look at it.Jin Kangle said that Yongfu Village has lived here for generations. He didn't want to destroy the original appearance of the village, so he didn't build the road too far. Villagers have to walk in and out in this way.

It was only when Xue Xiaoyan and the others arrived in the village that they discovered that there were a lot of people in the village. Jin Kangle said: "Recently, it is our village's triennial big sacrifice. It is very lively every time. It takes a total of seven days. The troupe sang one by one. , the folks in these ten miles and eight villages will give face and come to see the excitement."

Looking at the crowded crowd, Xue Xiaoyan had already started to worry about the fact that he might not have a place to live, but Jin Kangle said that he had already made arrangements and there was no need to worry. Hearing this, Hu Liting suddenly said, "I live in a room with my junior brother."

Jin Kangle said: "The hotel here is full of people. I arranged for the two masters to live in my friend's house. The bed in his house is very big. It should be no problem to sleep two people."

Hu Liting just wanted to nod his head in agreement, but Xue Xiaoyan refused: "Let's share a room with each other."

Hu Liting was a little dissatisfied when he heard the words, and he pulled Xue Xiaoyan to reprimand in a low voice: "What's the matter with you, I don't know what's going on here, let's take care of you."

Xue Xiaoyan said: "Sleep with you...I'm embarrassed..."

Hu Liting said strangely: "There's nothing to be ashamed of being men, it's not like we haven't slept together before."

These words reminded Xue Xiaoyan of being held in Hu Liting's arms and sleeping together all morning, a blush appeared on his face, and he said, "But I like men."

Hu Liting: "..."

In the end, this matter was decided so unpleasantly, and each person slept in a room.The environment where they live is very good, the house is big, the decoration is not luxurious, but it is still exquisite. The owner's surname is Zhong, and his name is Zhong Wei. He is very enthusiastic when he sees them. He lamented that Yongfu Village is really a place with simple folk customs, but Hu Liting snorted.Xue Xiaoyan felt wronged, even if he knew that Hu Liting was uncomfortable, but he was innocent.

As for Hu Liting, he didn't know what he was unhappy about. Anyway, after thinking about it for a long time, it all came down to the fact that Xue Xiaoyan didn't know how to protect himself, which made him very unhappy.

After eating at Zhong Wei's house, Jin Kangle explained the content of the commission to the two people.Their village invites people to do it every year during the big festival, and then people walk around the village with Dharma flags and beat gongs and drums, praying for the gods to protect the safety and prosperity of the village.Today is the fourth day of sacrifice in their village. It was good in previous years, but I don’t know why people died frequently this year since the first day. All of them died by accident, and those who died were all people holding French flags. Everyone said It angered the gods, so please ask someone to ask and see what the gods want, so as to calm down the anger.

Xue Xiaoyan thought that he was looking for a sorceress, how did he find them, but he couldn't say it directly, so he changed his sentence: "Do those dead people have anything in common?"

Jin Kangle waved his hand and said, "No, the one who holds the flag is not used to saying that he must be from the village, so we all spend money to hire people, and whoever comes first will give them. This year's people are all from other villages. Yes, if there is anything in common, it is that they all die very strangely."

Xue Xiaoyan: "Strange? Isn't it an accident?"

Jin Kangle: "Hey, the police looked at it and said it was an accident. That's what I'm going to tell you. Those people died very strangely. One of them fell into a ditch and drowned. The ditch was too shallow for me. Let me tell you, there is one more..."

Hu Liting felt that this person might talk endlessly, so he interrupted Jin Kangle and said, "We will go over and have a look, please find someone to show us the way."

Jin Kangle probably was intimidated by Hu Liting at the beginning, and he hasn't recovered yet. As soon as he opened his mouth, Jin Kangle immediately fell silent. It was Zhong Wei who asked his son to take them to see the dead people. place.

Zhong Wei's son, Zhong Yunpeng, is about [-] or [-] years old. He is still a junior high school student. His hair is sprayed with hairspray and dyed colorfully. In Hu Liting's words, he is "like a big rooster".Most young people don't believe this, so their attitude towards them is not very good, obviously they are treated as magic sticks, but Hu Liting didn't say anything, and Xue Xiaoyan didn't plan to say anything, believe it or not.

The first place they went was the ditch that Jin Kangle mentioned. It should be specially built for the convenience of watering the crops. It is about one meter wide. There is not much water in it now, and it barely reaches the ankle. But even if it is full, the water level is estimated to be almost to the knees, and it should not drown people.Zhong Yunpeng said that when the deceased was found, he was lying face up inside, with water in his mouth and nose, and the police also said that he had drowned.

Xue Xiaoyan squatted by the ditch and said, "You are quite clear, did you see it?"

Zhong Yunpeng said with some complacency on his face, "Sure, it's a fool not to join in the excitement."

Xue Xiaoyan: "..." The kids nowadays are so bold.

Hu Liting turned around, said that he had finished reading, and asked Zhong Yunpeng to take him to other places.

The second place is a pond, surrounded by nothing but grass. The body was found by the pond. When he died, his whole body was charred and burned to death.The third place is in the deceased's own home. There is no trace on the body. It is said that he was still alive and kicking at night, but when he saw it in the morning, it was completely cold. He almost scared his wife to death. The police report has not yet come out. The initial speculation is that it was a sudden death. , but with the previous incident, everyone also thought about the supernatural, but Zhong Yunpeng didn't take it seriously: "This must be intentional murder. Some people are just jealous of our village's wealth. Such people have dark hearts and can't do anything."

Hu Liting was noncommittal, touched his chin and asked, "Is the person today still alive?"

Zhong Yunpeng froze for a moment, then said: "No, I'm sleeping at home. Uncle Kangle is afraid that something will happen again, so I asked someone to watch."

Hu Liting let out a long groan, and as soon as he finished speaking, the village was in a commotion. After inquiring, he said that the person holding the flag yesterday ran away without being watched, and now he was arguing about committing suicide on the top of a building in the village.After the man finished speaking, he ran to watch the excitement. Zhong Yunpeng stared at Hu Liting with wide eyes when he heard this, he was looking at the eyes of the crow spirit.Hu Liting didn't care, and said they wanted to go and have a look together, so the three of them rushed to the destination. Although they didn't know where it was, they found it right away as long as they ran with the flow of people.

It was a young man in his 20s, standing on the roof of an eight-story building, singing hysterically and dancing. He looked completely crazy. Every time he moved, the crowd below screamed. The words looked a bit like a cult scene, and Hu Liting calmly commented on this scene: "The singing is really ugly."

Xue Xiaoyan said dumbfoundingly: "I know you sing well, do you want to save someone now?"

Hu Liting shook his head: "It's too late."

Xue Xiaoyan was a little puzzled, and after a closer look, he finally understood what Hu Liting was talking about.The young man stood tall. Although he couldn't see what he was looking for, he could see many black shadows around his feet. From a distance, he could be seen to be in the shape of a human being. Push down.

Just when Xue Xiaoyan thought he was going to fall, Hu Liting suddenly let out a soft snort, the originally clear sky suddenly darkened, the clouds were densely covered, and it was rumbling like it was about to rain heavily.There was a commotion all around, and the tension and doubts hadn't started to spread among the crowd, but it was interrupted by a thunderclap. With the exclamation of the crowd, the young man was struck by the lightning and swayed on it twice. Straight down the stairs.

Xue Xiaoyan thought: "This is really a punishment from God."
