husband from hell

Chapter 131
I saw that branch, like a woman's arm, turned very flexibly, and circled towards Cheng Ke.

Cheng Ke dodged it briskly, and retrieved the earrings lying on the ground. When the men in black saw us robbing things and robbing people, how could they bear this anger? We rushed, and the silk thread in our hands shot out from their cuffs again, like a spider man, and rushed towards us and entangled them tightly.

Cheng Ke put the earrings behind a relatively safe place, raised his slender hand, snapped his fingers, and the bluish-white flame spread along the silk threads to those men in black. As soon as the men in black retreated, When it touched the branch of the demon tree, it was completely limp as if its bones had been torn apart.

And that weird tree seemed to be slowly climbing out of the ground, its branches were supporting the ground, and the trunk was getting longer and longer!
Cheng Ke didn't move, he was just staring at what would come out from under the tree trunk.

I noticed that the bark of that tree doesn't really look like bark... It's the same as the strange boa constrictor I saw in Changsheng Village, it's scales!
There was a strange smell of water, and the more the branch came out, the thicker it became. Cheng Ke looked at the thing, folded a long reed from his side, and stroked the reed for a while. , I saw that soft curved reed immediately turned into a straight and hard shape.

When the branch of that strange thing stretched out, he lifted it up, and mercilessly inserted the reed stick deep into the strange thing. The branch seemed to be struck by lightning, and it was obviously very painful. All of a sudden, he twitched violently.

Cheng Ke pulled out the reed stick neatly, and saw thick transparent juice flowing out of the hole pierced by the reed stick, like glue.

"Huh..." Suddenly at this moment, from nowhere, there was a whistling sound, and that sound was whistling, with an indescribable strangeness.

And this strange tree seemed to have felt the call of the whistle, and suddenly shrank back from the hole it drilled out when it came.

It seems we've been spotted.

I hurriedly asked, "Should we chase after that hole?"

Cheng Ke shook his head, pointed to the earrings and said, "Take him, you won't be able to catch up."

This is true, the earrings have suffered, and he must not be left here. I stretched my head over, and saw that the hole had been re-buried by the soft soil, and it would take a long time to dig it open. time.

By the way, that strange thing retreated, but those men in black are still here!I quickly squatted down and tore off the black cloth covering the faces of those men in black, but when I looked under the black cloth, my eyes widened.

That... it's just a layer of black cloth, and there's nothing underneath!

"People... Where are people..." When I didn't pay attention, my tongue got tied up, and I quickly calmed down and said, "Run away? This is too fast..."

No... If we run, it is impossible for us not to see it, not so much as running...

I came to my senses: "Could it be that it was sucked dry by the big tree just now?"

Cheng Ke also squatted down, pushed aside the black fabrics, lowered his head and smelled it, and said, "It smells like incense sticks."

"You are talking about incense sticks for offering..." I also smelled it, and it has a bit of a solemn smell, which is different from the smell of incense sticks I have smelled before. Although this smell is very shallow, it is A mellow feeling, very pleasant, as if... quite advanced.

Cheng Ke thought for a while and said: "They encountered such a thing today, they will definitely not come out again, let's go back first, tomorrow will be dawn, and we can use these black cloths as clues to find them. origin."

Besides, they folded it twice on the same person, and they probably wouldn't let go of the earring so easily. This "bait" is still here, and they will definitely do it a third time.

I nodded quickly, and suddenly remembered that I was still holding the crystal clear bead in my hand, so I took out the bead, held it in front of Cheng Ke and said, "What is this thing for?"

Cheng Ke took it, nodded his chin towards the earrings, and said: "This is the Yin Qi that was sucked away from him, and it was solidified into a solid shape. It seems that they kidnapped and killed the ghost cultivator in order to obtain all kinds of treasures. All kinds of evil spirits."

"So that's how it is..." I remembered that weird tree, and quickly asked: "So, is that weird thing used as a tool to absorb Yin Qi... You just told me that that thing is called a pear tree. , means to plant a pear tree?"

"It's the most important thing," Cheng Ke said, "As you can see, that kind of thing is not a tree, but a living creature that feeds on the Yin Qi between heaven and earth and can absorb Yin Qi. It can be regarded as the mortal enemy of ghost raisers, so it is a kind of taboo. It is usually punished by ghost raisers everywhere. When I was alive, I only saw it in books. It is said that it has been extinct for a long time. It’s just that I don’t know who is so capable that they can even find that kind of thing.”

"What are you doing absorbing the yin energy of the ghost cultivator..." I asked, "Supplement yourself?"

"When this kind of yin energy is condensed, it can't be absorbed by people. There are still many secrets about Chongli, which are not in the books I read." Cheng Ke said thoughtfully: "The purpose is to Yes, I just can't see what it is, but wait until next time..."

"Hmm..." Earring suddenly groaned, "What's wrong with me..."

"Earring, you are very brave!" I said hastily, "You are a hero. You have made great contributions in finding that group of evil spirits for us."

As soon as the earrings were heard, the pale little face was sweating profusely: "Hey, I'll go, shouldn't it be, you just lied to me to sleep, and you used me as a bait again?"

As he said that, he wanted to move his arms, but he couldn't lift them up. He said sadly, "I didn't expect that your words don't count, and you gave me a trick. It's really hard to raise a girl and a villain..."

"Don't worry, we arrived in time and didn't make you suffer at all!" I said quickly, "Can you still move now?"

"I can't..." Earring cried and said, "Isn't this called suffering? I'm just provoking someone..."

"You'd better be content." I propped up my earrings and said, "If it weren't for us, maybe you would have been eaten today. You escaped death, and you should thank your savior."

Speaking of this, I remembered the traces I saw when the men in black chased the earrings, and when I looked carefully, the traces disappeared with the disappearance of the men in black.

But they were able to find the earrings, it must be because the earrings have some kind of mark that they can only understand?

Earrings stared at me with a pair of eyes, crying and laughing, with his head drooping, looking completely at the mercy of others.

Earrings really suffered this time. The wrong thing is that they still failed to use their own sacrifices to let us follow the clues to find the origin of those men in black.

However, it should be enough to get this little clue. Once there is a clue, there is hope for further investigation.

Cheng Ke propped up the ear studs for me, and the ear studs leaned against Cheng Ke's long body, obviously feeling cold, so he shivered suddenly, but looking at Cheng Ke's unsmiling face, he still knocked his teeth down Pharynx, aggrieved and followed us back.

And he was afraid that he would be alone when he went to the hospital, so he refused to seek medical treatment. He begged for nothing and wanted to go back to the community. I couldn't bear it, so I agreed.

Finally, after entering the door, the earrings lay on the bed like a puddle of mud, panting heavily, and finally struggled, tied a few red threads with silver bells on the door, it seemed Never trust us again.

After the earrings were settled, I saw Cheng Ke was sitting on the sofa, staring at the black cloth carefully, sitting next to him, and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"This kind of incense should be very precious." Cheng Ke raised his head and frowned, "I think I've smelled it before."

As soon as I heard this "before", I immediately regained my energy. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone? By the way, I can also get in touch with Cheng Ke to find memories. I hurriedly asked: "Very familiar? Think again, what kind of fragrance !"

"One qian... two qian..." Cheng Ke half closed his eyes, his thick eyelashes trembling slightly, and said, "The name of this spice is three and a half qian."

"Three and a half?" I frowned, "What kind of weird name is that?"

"I can't remember the rest." Cheng Ke pondered for a while, and said with certainty: "I must have been very familiar with this kind of thing."

I took out the newly bought mobile phone and searched the Internet. Sure enough, there is such a spice in the world!

"Three and a half coins...is a rare and outstanding spice. It is made of dragon musk deer, jade orchid, jade agate, agarwood and other raw materials. Each raw material costs three and a half cents, and the price of a stick of incense is three and a half cents. Gold, hence the name..."

It is similar to what Cheng Ke said, it is indeed very precious.

"Such a precious thing, ordinary people can't afford it." I came to the spirit: "It must be the kind of people who are particularly rich and have faith, and the scope of the circle can be much narrowed."

Cheng Ke nodded slightly and said, "Think about it tomorrow, you are tired."

I nodded, and when I went back to my room to sleep, I sneezed, and Cheng Ke was taken aback, because he was afraid that I would be cold, so he refused to hug me again, but carefully nestled the corner of the quilt for me, Qingyue's The voice said quietly: "Go to sleep, I will watch over you."

I was not used to it, so I leaned my head back, Cheng Ke hugged me through the quilt, and when I was about to fall asleep, I unconsciously sighed.

It seems, very lonely.

Before I had time to ask him, I had already fallen into a dream.

"When..." In the dream, the sound of a chime sounded from somewhere, distant and pleasant, Cheng Ke stood under a big camphor tree, looking into the distance.

"Are you alone?" An ethereal voice sounded like fairy music.

I am very familiar with this voice, it is Calamus...

Cheng Ke turned his head and saw a face as beautiful as a fairy.

However, he didn't throb at all, and he turned around indifferently without even nodding his head.

"Wait for him?" Calamus was dressed in red, always bright like a flame, dazzling to the point of dazzling: "Has he been in for a long time?"

Cheng Ke looked back at Yichuan Tobacco, but nodded coolly.

first encounter...

Calamus was not at all embarrassed by Cheng Ke's facial paralysis, but showed a very interested look: "I'm waiting for him too, let's be a companion."

Cheng Ke finally swept Tao Hua's big eyes over, and said noncommittally, "It's up to you."

Calamus smiled slightly: "My name is Changpu, the calamus of the calamus flower."

That smile was fresh, warm, and straight to the heart, and Cheng Ke was finally stunned for a moment. At the same time, Cheng Ke only felt that the name was familiar, and he couldn't help but feel a little familiar. He actually introduced himself: " Cheng Ke."

He himself was also asking himself, why should he speak up.

"Passenger?" Calamus frowned, "It's almost like a passenger. It sounds lonely."

What is loneliness?Cheng Ke thought to himself, he didn't know.

My heart suddenly hurt a bit, I don't know what loneliness is, just because there has never been a lot of fun around me.

"I like autumn..." Calamus's voice is indeed very pleasant: "However, others say that autumn has been sad and lonely since ancient times."

"It's getting cold. If you don't have clothes to wear, you will be very sad." Cheng Ke said casually: "How can a person who has no worries about food and clothing be lonely?"

"That's not necessarily true," Calamus said with a smile, "Actually..."

At this time, a scent of fragrance filled the air.

Cheng Ke turned around, it was Wei Qiancheng who came.

Wei Qiancheng was frowning and shaking his clothes: "It's weird, I don't like this smell at all..."

Yes, I smelled it right away, this is the smell of three and a half cents!
"It smells good." Calamus replied, "I really like it."

"That's right, I'll let them buy it for you." Wei Qiancheng's red lips curled up: "As long as you like it."

"Ow..."

At this moment, a scream rang out, I suddenly opened my eyes, and there was no one around me, I was startled, worried that something might happen to the earrings, so I quickly struggled out of the quilt, and got out of the bed barefoot.

He ran out the door with a patter, and saw Cheng Ke's slender figure blocking the door of the second bedroom, and the earrings were lying on the floor, with his legs on his back.

"What's the matter?" I quickly lifted my foot and jumped in from the red line at the door, only to see the pain on the face of the earrings: "Sleeping...dreaming, rolled off the bed..."

My head was covered with black threads, and I stretched out my hand to pull up the earrings: "You still have no strength? Turning over is quite violent."

As he spoke, he put him on his shoulders and threw him on the bed again: "How old is he, yet he still sleeps like this..."

"I can't choose the seat, I can't!" Earring touched his waist and moaned: "Oh, I am popular with thousands of girls, and I still need this waist strength..."

"Choose a seat? You slept soundly," I turned my head to look at Cheng Ke, but I saw Cheng Ke looking at the window of the second bedroom, so I followed his line of sight and saw only two round marks on the glass. On the window, I stretched out my hand to feel it, only to realize that the trace was actually outside.

My heart tightened, I could leave such traces outside the window on the eighteenth floor...

However, last time I saw palm prints, what are these two round ones?
The circle on the top is slightly larger, with a few obvious lines, and the original shape in the middle is only the size of the belly of a finger... Eh?My heart skipped a beat, that mark was exactly the mark of a person pressing his forehead and nose against the glass window!

It seems to have been imagined, outside the glass window, a squeezed face is sticking to it, looking inside...

After experiencing so many strange events, this guess still makes people feel chills behind!
Who... is secretly looking at the earrings!

Earrings still didn't realize it, and said: "I said Luqiao, can you find me some Yunnan Baiyao stickers on my waist? For men, this waist is the foundation of being a man... "

"I see." I came back to my senses, took out a patch from the medicine box, threw it on the earrings, and said, "Be honest, sleep a little longer, it's always so earth-shattering, downstairs Obasan came to your door and killed you."

The earrings looked at me pitifully: "I can't reach it myself, you might as well do it to the end and put it on me..."

I sighed, only to hear the silver bell at the door ring, Cheng Ke came in, took the patch from my hand, and pressed it on his waist.

Being frozen by Cheng Ke's hand, the earrings immediately grinned, but they didn't dare to complain, so they had to endure it.

Cheng Ke held my hand amidst the sound of the silver bell and went back to the master bedroom. I looked at the watch on the wall, it was almost six o'clock, and I couldn't help complaining: "It's almost dawn... ..."

"Sleep well." Cheng Ke pressed me on the bed and said, "Don't think about anything."

I nodded, but tossed and turned, I couldn't fall asleep anymore, and the sound of other people's houses getting up in the morning gradually sounded outside the window, the sound of broadcasting gymnastics, and the sound of pigeons crackling and flapping their wings, no matter what Can't sleep either.

Cheng Ke looked at me sideways: "Is it noisy?"

"It doesn't count," I said, resting my head on his chest, "It's just that I'm used to being quiet there once I come back from Xichuan."

Cheng Ke stretched out his hand to touch my hair, and suddenly smiled: "I haven't smelled this smell for a long time."

Yes, he likes the smell of the rose shower gel, I leaned closer to his cold body, he frowned and said: "It will be cold."

"Haven't you heard of it?" I nestled into his arms: "Silly girl sleeps on a cold bed, relying on firepower to be strong."

Cheng Ke couldn't help laughing: "It's really stupid."

"Cheng Ke..." I raised my face to look at him, and asked, "Do you have any particularly good memories of the past?"

Cheng Ke's smile just now was short-lived, and then faded: "No."

I pursed my lips, thinking, that's good.

What calamus gave you is all harm, right?Then, I will fill it with goodness, repair it, and you will be mine.

I'm not stealing or robbing, I just recycle and reuse, turning waste into treasure.

Thinking of this, I hugged Cheng Ke even tighter.

Also feel more at ease.

After a while, Erding also woke up, yelling hungry, I climbed down and cooked instant noodles, Erding pouted, and while blowing the instant noodles, he said: "It's enough to have a nightmare all night." Yes, I have to catch up on sleep during the day, so you guys won't go out?"

I remembered the few pieces of black cloth from yesterday, and said, "Go out."

"Ah?" The earrings blew up all of a sudden, "Then what should I do?"

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, I turned my head to one side, Cheng Ke was standing in the living room, and the door had already opened by itself, and Luo Weilan was coming in from outside.

By the way, Luo Weilan also bought a house in the same neighborhood as me, probably at the address my grandfather asked for, and he brought a full breakfast: "I'm used to eating with you these few days. No taste, let's eat together?"

I rushed out to greet him, put his hands full of soy milk, pancakes, fruit, grilled sausage, and steamed buns in the kitchen, and asked, "It's easy to make by yourself. What should I buy? Where's your brother?"

"Don't mention it," Luo Weilan shook her head, sighed, she looked very disappointed, and said, "I shut myself in the room, not eating, drinking or talking, and I also..."

Luo Weilan had just experienced such a sad thing, so she probably didn't want to be alone at all, I said, "Anyway, we live nearby, so come over when you eat, cook hot pot together at night, and put on autumn fat."

Luo Weilan knew that I wanted to make him feel lively, so she nodded gratefully: "I buy meat."

"Oh, brother Weilan!" The door of the earrings was not closed, and Luo Weilan saw Luo Weilan lying on the bed, and hurriedly said hello: "You are here too!"

"Ah, aren't these ear studs?" Luo Weilan hurriedly greeted, "Why did you come here?"

"I'm not called Erding," Erding protested, and said, "My name is Liu Yuanhua!"

"Earrings, what's the matter with your waist?" Luo Weilan didn't hear that sentence at all, and asked warmly: "You have lost a lot of yin energy! How can you go on like this, brother will buy you some sheep's kidneys, and I will make up for it at night Make up for it."

When the earrings heard the sheep's kidney, their eyes lit up first, and then went out again: "I'm afraid of getting angry after eating it, and I will lose my fire."

"Cheng Ke and I will go out for a while." Seeing that the two of them looked like good brothers, I said, "I'll be back in a while."

"Go to the hospital to see your aunt?" Luo Weilan said, "Do you want me to make some porridge for you?"

"No need, just leave it alone," I waved my hand and said, "Just take care of the earrings."

With that said, I picked up the pieces of black cloth, put them in my bag, and dragged Cheng Ke out.

Before leaving, Cheng Ke said, "Be careful with doors and windows."

Luo Weilan was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly realized, nodded, and said, "Got it."

After leaving the community, I said to myself: "You said such a valuable thing, there must be no other places, so you have to go to the best place to ask, but what is the best place?"

"That kind of thing should have a market but no price, or there should be a price but no market, so..." Cheng Ke raised his brows and said, "Those who can sell these two things, in our era, went to the black market."

I suddenly realized, by the way, that kind of three and a half money has long been lost on the Internet, can I also ask for help from the omnipotent black market!
Speaking of the black market, I immediately remembered the bean sprouts I met in the beauty salon. He is the younger brother of the gangsters, and he must know the details of the black market. I quickly took out my mobile phone and called him.

Bean Sprouts is a shining "Taoist", so he must be well-informed, so you must be right to ask him!
The phone was connected, and the voice of Bean Sprouts was obviously flattered: "Oh, it's the master? Here, you took the initiative to call me, which made me very nervous!"

"I don't have anything else to do. You know a lot of people. I want to ask you where there are incense sticks that sell for three and a half cents." I said, "Especially on the black market."

"Three and a half cents?" Bean Sprouts hurriedly said, "Hey... I don't know why it sounds familiar to me... In this way, master, please wait, I will check it for you! I will call you later! "

"Okay, okay!" I quickly thanked, hung up the phone, and said triumphantly, "How is it? Is my brain brilliant or not?"

Cheng Ke nodded, and said with a little affection: "It's really amazing."

Not long after, Bean Sprouts called and said, "Master, I've found it for you!"

When I heard it, it went really well, so I hurriedly asked, "Where is it?"
