Mantra

Chapter 160

Xian Hongye judged that my old squad leader made two preparations in order for me to inherit his "kitchen knife".

First, he left the kitchen knife to me, but the method of leaving it was controlled by Zhao Haikun.

If Zhao Haikun can repent and not kill me, I will definitely not see these stories. After the funeral, the kitchen knife will be buried in the soil forever, guarded by those "three poisonous corpses".

But if Zhao Haikun can't repent and kill me, he will definitely fall into the trap of my old squad leader.

In this way, the three corpse poisonous insects hidden in the clay sculpture will bite him to death, and the fireflies that come later will eat the corpse and the three corpse insects, and then help me clear the biggest obstacle to the competition for the kitchen knife.

Second, when the old squad leader handed me the kitchen knife, he didn't tell me the "secret" of the Zhao family.He chose to bring the core issue into the coffin, making this so-called "secret" an "unsolved case" forever.

At this point, Xian Hongye admired: "Your old squad leader is really clever. What he did is like giving you a 'key' without telling you where the keyhole is."

"Double insurance!" I suddenly realized: "After all, I am also a person, and it is possible to tell outsiders this secret like Zhao Haikun under coercion and temptation."

"So, your squad leader simply won't tell you anything." Hong Ye patted the kitchen knife in my arms and said, "You just need to hide this key, don't worry about anything else, there should be no way Tube."

I have to say that Xian Hongye's intelligence is far beyond my imagination.He answered many questions that I couldn't figure out for me, and it made me feel relaxed a lot.

However, Xian Hongye’s words still gave me more thoughts.

I know that it is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface for the old nineteen to ask for a kitchen knife, and I also know that my old squad leader is definitely not because of "honor" or "inheritance" to protect the kitchen knife.

But now, I can't know anything more, and I don't want to study more, I'm too tired.

What should come will always come, it cannot be avoided or denied, just like my trip to Lunan, every step seems to be accidental and ingenious, but in fact my squad leader counted it to death, there is no I have a choice.

The rest, I'm afraid, is to carefully study the "clues" left by my old squad leader. I hope I can find the "clues" of the squad leader and then unlock the white food Gu and Wang Hou's curse.

But what I didn't expect was that in the next few days, we couldn't find any clues about unraveling the white food Gu in Zhaojialou, but... everyone still untied the Gu poison.

Because the "thing" that can undo Gu unexpectedly found us by itself.

On the evening of the third day after the funeral, after Hongye and I sent away the last batch of police officers investigating the murder case, we sent away Zhao Hong at the same time.

After all, my comrade-in-arms has a property, and he hasn't been home for a few days, so he really needs to go back to his pig farm.

In the afterglow of the sunset, we reluctantly bid farewell, so we talked a lot, and when Zhao Hong was sent away, the sun had already set.When Zhao Hong's pickup truck disappeared at the corner at the north end of the village, a sense of loneliness rose in my heart.

That’s how people are, when they get together and part or part, everyone has their own trajectory, and when there is a relationship, there is a share, but what remains the same is the relationship. That kind of relationship makes Zhao Hong and I still trust each other after three years.

Zhao Hong suffered a lot and paid a lot for Wang Hou and me, but he didn't ask for anything in return.When our fatal crisis was over, he chose to leave, leaving only one sentence, "the future will last forever".

Zhao Hong is just a glass of plain water. He has no excessive taste, but it can really quench his thirst.

After seeing off Zhao Hong, Xian Hongye and I stood silently for a long time, watching the blush going away.

In the turbulent mood, everyone seemed a little sad, looked at each other, but couldn't say what to say.

Finally, the two smiled awkwardly, then turned and walked back.

But when we turned around, we suddenly saw a stooped and thin "dwarf" standing behind us, holding a white-faced doll in her hand.

It was an old lady in black, and it was the same old lady who repeatedly "spoiled" us and sabotaged the funeral of my old squad leader.

This ghostly figure suddenly appeared behind us again, smiling at us with her sparse teeth showing.

I don't know why, but that smile made me tremble all over.

Immediately afterwards, I habitually put my hands into my trouser pockets, tightly holding the Swiss Army Knife used to "murder".

Under the tense nerves, I looked at him as if I was facing an enemy.

I questioned: "Who are you? Why are you against me repeatedly?!"

Facing my questioning, the old lady changed her previous pretending to be crazy, and sneered at me: "You're right?! Think about it, would you be alive today without me?"

The old lady's words made me very speechless.

But if I think about it carefully, it seems that the old lady of the kneader didn't do anything excessive to me.

On the contrary, she also "saved" me.

When my old squad leader cheated on the corpse, if this old man hadn't helped and "hooked" my old squad leader's corpse away, I'm afraid I would have been killed or injured under the attack of the fraudulent corpse.

Thinking about it this way, she seemed to have something to say.

Thinking about this time, the old lady directly pointed out to me: "Zhao Haipeng asked me to help you."

I was tense, and suddenly realized that she was probably the person arranged by the old squad leader to help me undo the free-eating Gu.

Compared to my nervousness, Xian Hongye relaxed a bit. She smiled and asked, "Old man, thank you for your help. I don't know what your name is?"

The old lady looked at Xian Hongye with a smile and said, "You pretty daughter-in-law, you can just call me Old Lady Yin, I don't have a proper name, they all call me that."

"They?" I asked reflexively, "Who are they?"

The old lady Yin answered me with a mysterious smile: "Everyone, Su Zizuo is the nineteenth, White Dragon Temple, Confucius Hall."

My heart suddenly tightened.

An old lady, who can tell all the secrets of the Wu Zang Temple, obviously has a lot of background, but it is a pity that I am a frog in the bottom of the well. It is not always possible to hear something from these words with a lot of information.

Afterwards, I wanted to ask her many questions, but unfortunately the old lady didn't give me this opportunity. She just told me that he was an "outsider". Will control our life and death.

The old lady Yin told me that Zhao Haipeng also looked for her more than ten days ago, and the squad leader asked her to help me release the free food Gu, and secretly wanted to protect my safety.The first time she saw me in Zhaojialou, it was to confirm our identities, and the second time when my old squad leader lied about my corpse, she stood up to protect my life.

Later, she was afraid that my comrade-in-arms Wang Hou would be used by Zhao Haikun's "eating curse" and become a puppet, so she secretly put a "fruit food" on the back of Wang Hou's head to prevent Wang Hou from being completely swallowed by Zhao Haikun's spell control.

Unfortunately, because of my recklessness and ignorance, I rashly took out the white-faced doll behind Wang Hou's neck, which led to a tragedy.

After hearing this, when I knew that it was my actions that caused Wang Hou to be used by Zhao Haikun one after another, I suddenly felt guilty, and I couldn't help but lower my head, cursing myself for failing to accomplish anything but failing.

But compared to my self-blame, the old lady was very magnanimous. She waved her arm and smiled at me: "You are just a young man. If you don't know how to do this, naturally I won't blame you. It doesn't matter. I will undo the Gu for you, and then I will finish my work, and you don't have to worry about the police and Hebei, the rest is up to your fate."

I raised my head excitedly when I heard the words, and asked the old lady Yin: "Can you help us undo the white food Gu and Wang Hou's food curse?!"

The old lady nodded, and then stretched her hands into her arms.

I look forward to it
