White Bone Monkey King

"It's on fire!"

"Come put out the fire!"

Fenghuang Town was in chaos at night, with houses on fire, reflecting the red night.

"Whose house is on fire?"

"It seems that Luo Lame's house is on fire!"

"Impossible! Didn't Luo Lame go to the county to seek refuge with his relatives? How could his house catch fire for no reason without being left alone all year round?"

Fenghuang Town is not a big place. As soon as the fire started here, the whole town was alerted and came to put out the fire. Only then was the fire controlled to prevent it from spreading to the dry wooden houses and causing a bigger fire.

However, the home named Luo Lame was not so lucky. Almost half of it was destroyed by the fire, and the ground was covered with rubble and debris.

The old Taoist priest who caught up found Jin An: "The fire came suddenly. Little brother, you were the first to arrive. Did you find anything?"

Jin An handed over a black jar, which he found when he rushed to the scene of the fire immediately and broke into Luo Lame's house before the townspeople put out the fire.

At this time, a big hole opened in the belly of the black altar. The old Taoist priest looked at the gap and found something in the jar. He reached for it and took out a pair of scissors. There was also a small doll tied with a red string on the scissors. On the back of the doll was written With the bride's name and birthday.

The expression of the old Taoist priest changed: "Scissors are sharp weapons, gold is a killing tool, it can suppress a person!"

At this time, Jin An called the Zheng family and asked what happened to Luo's lameness.

The Zheng family replied tremblingly, saying that Luo Lame's relationship in Fenghuang Town was very simple. He had no father or mother, and had no parental discipline since he was a child. He was too naughty and broke a leg while climbing a tree for fun, so he got the nickname Luo Lame. Luo Lamei worked part-time with relatives in the county town all year round. He said he wanted to save money to marry a wife. He rarely came back once a year, so the house remained vacant all year round.

"It seems that someone is eyeing this empty house and using it to do things like rat and dog theft." The old Taoist priest said angrily.

At this time, someone from the Zheng family whispered: "Master Liu's family lives nearby. How about we go to Master Liu's house to see if he has come back? By the way, we can also ask about Lame Luo's family. Maybe Master Liu can help." We provide some useful clues."

The Zheng family thinks very simply. Master Liu is the most capable among the Zheng family and is the backbone of the Zheng family. They have gone through too many things this night. It is when they have no master and are so confused that they urgently need to find a backbone to stabilize their impetuous people. .

"Oh? Mr. Zheng Liu lives near here too?" Jin An asked the Zheng family to take the lead.

The Zheng family has quite a bit of assets in Fenghuang Town, and even Mr. Zheng Liu lives in a second-class mansion.

According to the Zheng family, Mr. Zheng Liu had no wife or children, and only a few old servants who had been with him for half his life to help take care of the house.

Those old servants were indeed very old. Together, they couldn't even have a set of teeth. They walked tremblingly. They were deaf and presbyopic because of their age. You had to get close to see people clearly.

Zheng what sea?

What is the sea?

The Zheng family struggled for a while before these old servants finally confirmed their identities and said that Mr. Liu was not at home.

The old Taoist priests on the side felt anxious and angry, and murmured in a low voice: "Could it be that Mr. Zheng Liu is also a chronic person? Listening to them talk makes me anxious to death."

Jin An heard the old Taoist priest's muttering and said with a pun: "Maybe this will make things more convenient."

Jin An whispered a few words to the old Taoist priest, and the old Taoist priest who cooperated tacitly gave Jin An a look of understanding. Then the old Taoist priest took the Zheng family members and said that they would visit Liu Ye's house and wait for Liu Ye to come back to discuss some matters.

Although the Zheng family was a little confused, this just suited their purpose, so the group stayed at Zheng Liuye's house as guests.

This large house with two entrances is divided into a front room and a back room. The front room is the lobby, and the back room is the wing room and side room for living.

Jin An didn't sit for a while and asked where the latrine was. He wanted to borrow the latrine. Shortly after Jin An left, the old Taoist priest held his stomach and complained that he had a stomachache and had diarrhea, and then hurried to the latrine.

Of course, these two people didn't really want to go to the latrine, they just found some excuse to drive away the old servants. In the dark night, Jin An heard some movement behind him, and when he turned around, he saw the old Taoist priest following him.

"Hey, old Taoist, I knew it was a lie that you borrowed the hut, my little brother, and I suspected that Mr. Zheng Liu was the real one." The old Taoist approached Jin'an proudly, walking like flying, and his stomach no longer hurt.

The old Taoist priest continued to say proudly: "Little brother, you have to thank me for helping you find out which house Zheng Liuye lives in. Otherwise, there are so many houses here. How can you tell which house Zheng Liuye lives in?" of."

Jin An looked at the old Taoist priest strangely: "Do you still need to ask? The house is so big, and the largest room must be where Mr. Zheng Liu lives."

After saying that, he had already crushed the door lock and pushed the door open to enter.

"Alas!" The old Taoist priest looked at Jin An who had chosen the right house with a shocked look on his face. He turned to look at the dark night around him, shouted "Little brother, wait for me" and chased after him.

It seems that Mr. Zheng Liu's life hobbies are very monotonous. There are no valuable objects in the room except some ordinary calligraphy and paintings and flower porcelain vases.

At this time, the old Taoist priest was attracted by a calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall. He kept standing in front of the calligraphy and painting and frowned in thought, as if he was trying to remember something.

Jin An walked closer and observed the calligraphy and painting. This was Zhang's very ordinary calligraphy and painting, which was a landscape painting with clouds and fog: "Is there anything wrong with this painting?"

Jin An looked at the old Taoist priest.

The old Taoist priest thought hard and shook his head: "There is nothing wrong with this painting. It is the landscape in the painting. I always feel that I have seen it somewhere before. I feel inexplicably familiar at the first sight, but I still can't remember exactly where I saw it. Pass."

"There are thousands of famous rivers and mountains in the world, and there are countless unknown hills and rivers. Those that make me feel familiar at a glance must be a very impressive place. Strange, strange, why can't I remember where I am? Where have I seen it before..."

Jin An nodded, and then made a surprising statement: "Since this painting and calligraphy is so important, take it away and look at it slowly."

The old Taoist priest glanced at Jin An in surprise, and then exclaimed: "Sure enough, no one knows me better than you, little brother. Anyway, Master Zheng Liu is not a righteous person at first glance. There is no such thing as stealing or not."

The old Taoist priest stood on tiptoes and went to pick up the painting excitedly. Unexpectedly, as soon as he took off the painting, he let out a soft scream and the calligraphy and painting fell to the ground.

"Little brother! There is something weird about this painting! When I came across it just now, I saw a female corpse with an expression of shock, anger and terror. Her eyelids were sewn shut. The sutures were cut open by a young man. The eyes of the female corpse opened suddenly and she looked straight. Gou looked at me..."

"I'm afraid this calligraphy and painting does not belong to Mr. Zheng Liu. Its real owner is the female corpse!"

"It is said that tigers are painted without dotting the pupils, and paper-drawing figures only draw eyes without dotting the eyes. They open the eyes of the dead and dot the eyes. No wonder this Phoenix Town is not peaceful. All the righteous people are dead!" The old Taoist priest said more and more solemnly.

After listening to the old Taoist priest's words, Jin An bent down to pick up the calligraphy and painting that fell on the ground, but nothing unusual happened to him.

When the old Taoist priest touched the calligraphy and painting again, there was no hallucination this time. The old Taoist priest murmured that it was really strange.

"Unexpectedly, our group in Fenghuang Town this time actually encountered a strange corpse with its eyes sewn shut again. It seems that the source of the trouble in Fenghuang Town is definitely related to the female corpse! Thought, fear, and anger, the seven human emotions have been touched by us. There are three kinds of monster corpses, and if we add Shi Zhiping, the third housekeeper of the Song family whose life and death are unknown after escaping from prison, we have already encountered four kinds! And each time it is more evil than the last! "

Jin An did not answer, but directly forced the calligraphy and painting into the arms of the old Taoist priest: "Put this calligraphy and painting away, and slowly recall it when you go back. Whether you can find the truth behind these dead people, it all depends on you. "

"Ah this..." The old Taoist priest held the calligraphy and painting like a hot potato, neither throwing it away nor picking it up.

"Thinking about things late at night is the most exhausting thing. Little brother, can I apply for a work-related injury? Can I eat a few more pieces of sheep brain hotpot to make up for my injuries?"

Jin An: "?"
