Rent Affair

Chapter 26 The man in the white shirt
The policeman guarding the door saw that Lao Zhang did not stop us, nor did he, so he took two steps back, let the door out, looked inside, and saw that the smoke from burning paper in the house had not dissipated, and wisps of green smoke lingered The smell of blood and burnt paper mixed in the air, and the smell was extremely unpleasant. The old man lay flat on the ground, skinny and bony, as if his blood had been drained out of his body, and he looked beside him. The wooden basin is placed on the side, a little closer, the basin is filled with dark red blood, there seems to be something surging in the dark red, when you look closely, you can't help but a chill hits your back, the surging blood The moving ones were actually strips of maggots.The maggots were of an unusual size, each strip was as thick as a little finger, and the whole body was bright red, which was shocking.

Just looking at this maggot as thick as a little finger, it cannot be a man-made murder. It is estimated that Xie Chong learned that it was this man who talked too much about what happened in Dahe Township, and Xie Chong was so angry that he wanted his life. , I felt guilty and asked Xiaoying to save this old man no matter what. No matter what he said, it was because of us that he caused his death.

Xiaoying shook her head and sighed softly, "I also want to help him save, but this evil spirit's attack is too insidious, this man's soul has been destroyed, and he may not be reincarnated forever!"

Just because this man told the truth, he ended up like this. I only met this man once, but he died tragically because of me. Even if I can't save him, I still want to avenge him and kill that evil creature.

"Go! Go find Xie Chong!" I took Xiaoying's hand and walked out.

Xiaoying shook off my hand, telling me not to be impulsive, saying that the evil spirit had sucked the spirits of hundreds of people, and his way of doing things was different from the evil spirits he had encountered in the past, so if he rushed to find it like this, it would be no different from sending him to death.

What Xiaoying said was right, I stood still, calmed down, and said, "But letting this evil spirit harm more people will only make its way deeper and deeper, let alone subdue it, don't die under its hands It's time to burn incense!"

Xiaoying frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said slowly, "It's hard for us to be that evil opponent, it seems that we can only ask my senior brother to help out!"

"Chen Changan..."

He is now in the ancient forests of Lingbei County, and it will take at least a day's drive to get to N City. This evil spirit is now showing its fierce face, and it is afraid that it will start a massacre. Purgatory on earth.

Xiaoying didn't know that she didn't have enough time, so she lowered her head and said nothing, with a melancholy expression on her face.

Standing at the entrance of the alley, Hu Lai saw that we were discussing something, so he hurried over and asked politely, "I don't know why the two masters are worried, why don't you tell me and see if there is anything I can do to help! "

Hearing this, I thought, if Hu Lai came forward to get a helicopter to fetch Chen Changan, it would take half a day, but I would still have time, so I hurriedly asked if there was any helicopter available in Dahe Township.

Hu Lai scratched his head, paused for a few breaths, and said with a perplexed face, "Yes, but... it's just a plane shared with Hongshui Town nearby. The plane stops in Hongshui Town. It will take another hour! The mayor of Hongshui Town and I are still rivals, please don't spread the news of this dead man to Hongshui Town..."

When I heard it, I waved my hand, saying that it’s okay, I thought to suppress this matter for the time being, and after it was resolved, I would find a reason to report it to the higher authorities. He would definitely not use the helicopter in Hongshui Town. Besides, there was no clear coordinates for the helicopter to pick up Chen Changan, so it was difficult to find it. This trip would take at least an hour, and it was difficult to make time. It seemed that we had to think of other ways.

Xiaoying's eyebrows tightened a bit, and she said in a deep voice, "It seems that Dahe Township is doomed this time, let's organize the villagers to flee for their lives and minimize casualties!"

Hearing this, Hu Lai became even more flustered, and begged repeatedly, "You two masters, just do it. If you think about it again, this matter will go to the city. If I lose my official position, it's a small thing, but if I go to jail, it's a big deal." ah!"

I saw that at such a critical juncture, Hu Lai still only wanted to protect himself, and he didn't care about other people's lives.

Xiaoying was upset, so she sternly shouted, Hu Lai saw Xiaoying was angry, so she quickly shut up.

Suddenly, the wind blows, the sand and dust roll up, the leaves rustle and fall, and in an instant, the yellow sand is all over the sky, the water level on the banks of the ancient canal rises high, the roar of the torrent is heard, and the sand and stones are flying, and the sound is thunderous.

"What's going on here?" I hurriedly asked Xiaoying, feeling worried, if it was really caused by that evil spirit, calling the wind and rain, and reversing the torrent, how could such a cultivation level put the two of us in the eyes.

Xiaoying stared into the distance, but couldn't see the slightest clue, so she could only tell, "This wind is very weird, so be careful!"

Hu Lai, who was standing beside him just now, saw this ferocious momentum, oiled the soles of his feet, and slid very fast, running more than ten meters away in the blink of an eye.The wind became stronger and stronger, and the earth tiles were shaking, the tree trunks were shaking, and the clouds were about to disperse. The torrential waves that resounded like thunder overflowed the embankment of the river bank, and the river water swallowed like a wild beast. , Not long after, the water under the feet flooded the ankles. The water was sometimes cold and biting, and sometimes hot and scorching.

No need to think about it, there is no such kind of water in this world, Xiaoying frowned and said, "The scene in front of me is an illusion, and what you and I feel is just an illusion!"

Even though he said so, the illusion is real, and the hallucination is vivid. If he dies in the illusion of this illusion, it will be really frightening.

"Is there any way to break this illusion?" I asked anxiously. The evil spirit in the cow-herding hill almost trapped the two of us in the illusion. Anyone who does it will be afraid of suffering endless torment in this phantom hallucination until he dies.

Xiaoying shook her head, saying that the hallucinations and hallucinations are all caused by the senses that people have. If they can really get rid of the five senses, then this person can't be regarded as a human being, and he has already been promoted to a fairy, and he is in the fairy class.

Hearing what she said, I also know that this phantom illusion is almost indestructible in front of the two of us, but I feel unwilling to die in my own sensory world like this.

The flood was knee-deep, and my legs had been standing in the water for a long time, which numbed the feeling of impermanence, and I said to myself that it seems that my little life will be accounted for here.

Suddenly the wind stopped abruptly and the flood flowed backwards. The scene in front of me also made Xiaoying and I confused and looked at each other.

Hearing the sound of fighting not far away, the two of us turned around to look at each other, only to see two light shadows, one white and one black, fighting in the dark night sky at a very fast speed, and the sound of swords and swords slashed into our ears , the sword is gaining momentum, the black shadow is retreating steadily with the knife, and the white shadow is pressing closely with the sword. Going away, the flame was fierce, the black shadow held the knife to resist, there was only a crisp sound, the knife broke in two, the black shadow was slightly surprised when he saw it, but only in this shock, the flame penetrated his body, Tongues of fire engulfed him, and he wailed for a moment, making him miserable.

"sharp……"

Xiaoying stood still and stared at the fight between the two shadows, with admiration on her face, she couldn't help but speak.

Although I don't know much about swords, I can tell from the aura exuded by that white shadow the moment he releases his sword that this person is by no means an ordinary person.It's just that this white shadow is somewhat familiar.

The black shadow burned into ashes under the tongue of fire, dispersed with the wind, and the white shadow fluttered down. Standing in front of the two of us, I could see the appearance of this person. This person was the man in the white shirt in the cave in the cattle grazing hill. , but why did this man in white shirt appear in Dahe Township? Could he be following us?

Before I opened my mouth, the man in white seemed to see what I was thinking, and said, "I came with you two!"

"What is your purpose of following us here from Qingniu Village?" I don't know if this man in white shirt is an enemy or a friend. If he is an enemy, then he should have killed us two long ago, and he will never rescue us.

The white-clothed man walked slowly with his hands behind his back, and said, "I don't know if I followed you from Qingniu Village, but I have been following you since you met the fox demon!"

"Follow me?" I asked suspiciously, thinking to myself, I am a person with no car, no house, no job, Xiaoying came to me, and the man in white in front of me also came to me, what is the reason.

The man in the white shirt nodded, and took out a piece of brocade from his bosom. The brocade was embroidered with gold thread, and the gold thread was finely threaded. The thing on display was a mink fur. The exquisite embroidery made the mink fur seem alive. Like a thing, it drills out from the brocade.

"Have you seen this thing before?" the white-clothed man unfolded the brocade and asked.

Just looking at the workmanship of this brocade, I know that it is definitely not something that ordinary people can see, but when the man in white shirt asked me this way, I thought about it carefully, and I have never seen this brocade in my impression, or it has never been similar. have.

I shook my head and replied, "I haven't seen it!"

The man in the white shirt folded the brocade and put it in his arms, his phoenix eyes were slightly curved, and he smiled, and said, "It doesn't matter if you can't remember now, I will make you remember!" After saying that, he stretched out his hand and grabbed my wrist Seeing this, Xiaoying grabbed his hand instantly.

"What are you going to do?" Xiaoying looked at the man in white shirt coldly and asked.

The man in the white shirt only smiled, and waved his sleeves, a gust of wind hit Xiaoying's chest. stop!"

After the man in the white shirt finished speaking, he tapped his toes and flew up. I only felt that my body was floating and followed the flying sky. I turned my head to look at Xiaoying who was standing still.

"Take care of yourself, and keep Xiaoyue alive!" I shouted.

There were tears in her eyes, she didn't make a sound, she just silently watched me fly farther and farther, until her figure disappeared from sight.

The man in the white shirt flew into the sky, stood on the clouds, and flew through the clouds.

"Where are you taking me?" I asked.

"Go where you should go..." The man in the white shirt didn't glance at me, but stared at the place where the clouds disappeared, and the sea of ​​clouds receded.

"who are you?"

"People who won't hurt you..." The man in the white shirt answered concisely, no matter how I asked him, he didn't answer a single word, and he focused on flying towards the end of the clouds.

I don't know who this man is, and I don't know where he is taking me. It's just that this farewell is a small shadow, and I'm afraid I won't be able to see each other again in three to five years. When I think about it, I feel even more uncomfortable.

The early sun is slightly dewed, looking down to the feet is the vast mist, the sea is vast, looking forward is the endless sea of ​​clouds, no end, the wind above the clouds is even stronger, the person who is blowing straight is crumbling, and the scenery is beautiful, but it is hard to see her smiling like painting.
