The book was brief, and we arrived at the Iron Tower around three o'clock in the afternoon.
Standing downstairs, a long-lost feeling arises spontaneously. The sign "The Supernatural Incident Processing Center designated by Master Sanmao personally to kill demons, defend the way, catch ghosts and subdue demons" is still hanging there. The door is ajar, and inside There was no one in the hall.
Walking in, the incense burner in front of the three deities in the hall was about to burn out. The paper money on the floor was covered with footprints. The fat aunt was not there, nor was the little girl who often came to help. She stood still and respectfully. After adding a few sticks of incense to the three Heavenly Lords, there was a very slight sound of footsteps coming from the stairs of the iron building.
The sound was very trivial and not too serious. Between two steps, the sound of a small stick hitting the ground was heard endlessly. I took a few steps back and saw a skinny man with sunglasses and gray hair on his temples. The old man came down holding a bamboo pole.
"Mr. Chen," I burst into tears when I saw how haggard he looked. After hearing my call, he smiled bitterly and nodded, "Lu Li, you're awake."
"Yes, I just woke up." I wiped the corners of my eyes and tried not to make a sound, but Mr. Chen was such an easy person to deceive. He came over, patted my shoulder, and then motioned for me to go upstairs and take a look first. Let’s talk about it later.
I nodded and quickly went upstairs. The door on the second floor was ajar. I opened the door and walked in. Guigui was sitting on the sofa folding something similar to a gold ingot. In front of her, there were various All kinds of paper money and ingots are piled up like a hill.
Seeing me coming, she turned her head and was startled for a moment, then the two big eyes behind the mask suddenly blurred.
I stood at the door, not daring to go in. I always felt that I was ashamed of her, and the confrontation lasted for five minutes. Guigui finally cried out. She choked and sobbed, and tears fell down. After a while, a little sparkle came out from under the familiar yet unfamiliar mask. When I walked over, this girl was already sobbing. I hugged her and opened my mouth several times but couldn't say a word.
Ten minutes later, I dragged Guigui downstairs. In the hall, Mr. Chen was sitting on the chair in front of the counter, dazed alone. He told me about the situation here and asked for my opinion. Of course, the topic The center always revolves around Jin Jiuye’s will.
I did not refuse Master Jiu's instructions. I told him many times that I felt guilty for his death. Everyone can see how important the iron building was to him. Since he left a message, he hoped that I would help him take care of the ghosts and ghosts. Tielou, let these things go on together.
After hearing my statement, Mr. Chen's face showed joy. He nodded and said immediately: "Jiu Ling wrote that his time is running out. In such a short time, there are many things that he cannot teach you personally. , I will stay here for a while and tell you some Maoshan Taoism that you must master. As for your business matters, I will not interfere. I am old and have washed my hands in a golden basin long ago. I hope you can be considerate,"
"Old man, what are you talking about? I know that you took the trouble to come to the rescue. Most of Master Jiu's skills are also passed down to you. If you are so humble again, I will be ashamed of myself." I said, and then put the wind god I told him many experiences in the stock valley.
When talking about the monk in red, Mr. Chen's face changed slightly. After learning that we accidentally injured him, he laughed out loud while holding the bamboo pole. While praising us for knowing how to outwit the strong, he explained: "This monk is indeed fierce and evil. I knew he was neither a human nor a ghost, but I never saw his true origin. The two of us are as capable as brothers. We couldn't defeat him in several confrontations when we were young. , later on, the stalemate became even more exhausting. At that time, he wanted to be polite when he saw me, but it was very difficult for me to get rid of him. However, you have to be careful, this monk is by no means a kind person, he Just because he can't touch me doesn't mean that he won't look for you to seek revenge. Starting from tomorrow, you should come here to learn some real skills. Even if you are not his opponent, you won't be completely passive if you meet him."
"Tomorrow, tomorrow is not enough. Officer Yang asked us to help with a very difficult case." Upon hearing this, I quickly said. At this time, Lao Yang and Xiao Pang were waiting for me in the car outside. , if I agree to him, then these people will be crazy.
"Case, what case?" Mr. Chen has been in the iron building for several days. He hasn't gone out much. He doesn't know much about the outside world. Besides, mainstream media don't dare to talk nonsense about this kind of thing, and government departments even more It was kept secret. Because the confidentiality work was done well, this matter naturally did not cause too much commotion. I understood the various reasons. I smiled bitterly and pulled up a chair to tell him about the "ghost-skinned" patient. For a moment.
When Mr. Chen heard this, he touched his chin and frowned. Then he told me some things about zombies and took out two blue talismans. He told me how to use these talismans. He waved his hand to signal me to go back early. Hearing this, I nodded in agreement, touched Gui Gui’s head and hurried out.
After closing the door of the iron building, Lao Yang and the others had already come out of the car. Lao Yang was squatting on the ground and smoking. There were cigarette butts all over the floor. When he saw me coming over, he asked: "What took you so long and we got into trouble?"
"No, there are some important things to explain," I said, opened the trunk of the police car, stuffed a large backpack into it and followed Lao Yang straight to the scene of the accident.
At Lao Yang's request, we first met with the witness of the case. The person who reported the case was an old guard near the construction site. The old man must be in his sixties, slightly hunched over, and he looked pretty good. He was dignified and kind, and after listening to our explanation of our purpose, this man quickly let us in, brought us a few glasses of water with a thermos, and paid us a few token courtesy. After his anger subsided, he moved the topic to the day's events.
At first I thought this matter was just a slightly serious rape-corpse case, but after hearing what he said, it turned out to be completely different.
"That day... in the middle of the night, when it was almost dawn, I happened to be on duty. I was confused and heard the sound of the fence in the community. At that time, I thought I had met a thief, so I sat up and lay on my stomach. I didn't dare to turn on the light when I looked out the window. My eyes were dazzled, but the light from outside still confused me. Guess what, at that time I saw two black figures heading towards the door. Bump, bump, bounce, bump, bounce, the door will be broken by them, they haven't stopped yet,"
