Incense money from flower and bird shop

On the rough concrete floor, the man who lost both feet struggled to crawl, leaving bloodstains winding along the way.

He seemed to have lost consciousness long ago, walking forward like a walking corpse, even though the broken ankle was bleeding profusely.

The bloodstains of the people who died yesterday still remained on the ground, leaving a blackened stain, like a gathering of lingering ghosts.And at the place where the bloodstains overlapped, it was also the end of his life.

The man who lost his feet seemed to have no more strength to move forward, and fell on the dried blood, closing his eyes peacefully.If someone stood beside him, he could even see the corner of his lips, filled with a contented and delighted smile.

A steady stream of blood flowed out and continued to form a small lake. The man's pale face indicated that his life had come to an end.

This is the third homicide this week, and the company is panicking, and public opinion can no longer be suppressed.Many timid employees choose to take long vacations, and some even resign directly.

Management meetings were held one after another, and police investigations came one after another, but every time the monitoring failed, and no reason could be found.

Many people say that there are serial killers lurking in the company, killing single colleagues in the underground garage late at night.

At lunch time, Xiao Congshuo absent-mindedly poked the rice with his chopsticks, without any appetite.The people in the same office were still quietly discussing Brother Zhang's death, and one of them said: "I found out something terrible, look at Brother Zhang, look at Xiao Pan who just had an accident yesterday, and the first Xiao Pan who lost his head." Xu, both are exactly 28 years old."

"What a coincidence?" The timid female colleague also came over and asked in a low voice, "Did someone destroy our company's Feng Shui? Four people have died before the end of the year."

"Who knows."

"However, I heard that the police have not found the head, hands and feet they lost."

"So evil?"

Everyone was talking about the murder case, but Ming Yan grasped the most critical point - the three dead men happened to be 28 years old.

Xiao Congshuo dropped his chopsticks and left. He rushed back to the flower and bird shop as fast as he could, and told Ming Yan the news.

Ming Yan had also been troubled by these cases for a long time, but now he heard what Xiao Congshuo said, and he felt that something was wrong: "Too bad, there is something that wants to come back."

"What do you mean?" Xiao Congshuo saw that Ming Yan's face turned pale with shock, and he was in a bad mood, so he kept asking, "Who wants to come back?"

"Take the heads, hands, feet, and bodies of people born in the same year and make them into human figures, and summon the evil gods back." Ming Yan finally remembered that this was a blood sacrifice ceremony to welcome the evil gods.

Xiao Congshuo couldn't help but shudder when he recalled Brother Zhang's death: "Such a cruel god has believers?"

"Luo Hu." Ming Yan parted his lips slightly, and said two words.A 28-year-old man was murdered by Luo Huxing.

"There is still a torso missing." Before Xiao Congshuo could react, Ming Yan dragged him out of the room and went straight to the company, "We must stop the fourth sacrifice before they do it."

The fourth sacrifice, and the last.The evil god who has been dormant for thousands of years should be forgotten, and who would want him to come back?

Ming Yan couldn't figure it out, so he hurriedly called Yuan Hou when he got in the taxi.

The gods forgotten by mankind have long since declined, and even Rahu, who was once mighty, cannot escape the end of extinction.If he came back at this time, the first thing he would do would not necessarily be to kill, it would be more likely to search for divine beasts like Ming Yan and Yuan Hou who roamed the world, and absorb their lives as offerings.

Yuan Hou didn't know the situation yet, so he answered the phone with a smile, and wanted to tease Ming Yan a few words: "Miss me? Have you decided to give up Xiao Congshuo?"

"Someone wants to lure Rahu back."

The words Ming Yan said were concise and to the point, but each word seemed to explode in Yuan Hou's ears.

"This joke can't be played around." Yuan Hou's laughter stuck in his throat, and he suddenly asked seriously, "Where are you?"

"Come downstairs to Xiao Congshuo's company, we'll wait for you." After speaking, Ming Yan cut off the phone, frowned and looked at the newspaper office building which was close at hand.

The police have already sealed off the underground garage, and countless reporters are waiting to interview the investigators.

Ming Yan whispered to Xiao Congshuo: "You go upstairs to work normally, pretend nothing happened, but pay attention to whether there are suspicious people in the company, Yuan Hou and I will handle the rest."

Xiao Congshuo told him: "Be careful."

"I'll pay attention." Ming Yan watched Xiao Congshuo go away, his eyes filled with deep sorrow.

Ever since he knew that there was a man in his past, Ming Yan dared not ask Xiao Congshuo to deal with the ghost incident together.

In his body, that uncontrollable person is like a cockroach buried deep in the soil, which may erupt at any time when stimulated by external objects.

Ming Yan hopes that Xiao Congshuo is just an ordinary person with an ordinary and peaceful life.Even if he will face birth, old age, sickness and death, Ming Yan will accompany him until the end of his life.

Yuan Hou and Ming Yan who had just rushed over watched Xiao Congshuo's leaving back together, and suddenly laughed: "Are you serious?"

Ming Yan was already preoccupied, so he didn't realize it for a while: "What is it serious?"

"The dewy marriage is true love." Yuan Hou raised his chin, alluding to Xiao Congshuo.

Ming Yan gave him a slap in the face, stopped dwelling on this topic, and said instead: "Tonight there will be No.4 sacrificial sacrifice, we must hurry up."

After learning the details of the matter, Yuan Hou couldn't laugh anymore: "Finding the mutilated limbs is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack, but we can destroy the sacrificial site in the underground garage."

"If I'm not mistaken, the people who died several times fell in the same place."

Ming Yan looked at the entrance that was pulled into the blockade, and said to Yuan Hou: "This time we have the same idea."

Yuan Hou took out the invisibility talismans he had prepared, handed one to Ming Yan, and kept the other to himself: "Come on, let's go in and have a look."

The blockade at the entrance trembled slightly, as if being swept by an invisible thing.The police officer looked around in surprise, but couldn't see anyone walking into the garage, so he couldn't help laughing at himself for being suspicious.

On the concrete floor, new and old blood stains were superimposed together, congealing into a thick dark red blood scab.

Ming Yan covered his nose and looked at the place where the sacrifice was made, and suddenly understood, pointing to it, he said: "Tonight's Rahu star must be echoing right above it."

"We're just waiting here." Yuan Hou couldn't get rid of the bloody smell in his breath, and looked at the pool of old and new blood with disgust, "Someone will definitely come tonight."

In the blink of an eye, night fell, but the fourth sacrificial person did not appear for a long time.

Xiao Congshuo pretended to be working overtime to rush to work, dawdling until eight o'clock sharp, and sat in the rest area on the first floor for a long time, but unfortunately he didn't find a suspicious person.The underground garage where Ming Yan and Yuan Hou lived was also quiet and no one came in or out.

It's been an unnaturally peaceful night.

It's a pity that under all the calm, storms and whirlpools are brewing.

At this moment, the incandescent lamp above his head began to flicker again, flickering on and off, Ming Yan heard footsteps echoing in the empty underground garage.

Someone was approaching them gradually, walking towards them without haste, with heavy steps as if every step they took would leave a deep footprint.

Finally, the lights above the head were completely extinguished, and the darkness stretched out its arms, hugging Ming Yan and Yuan Hou tightly.

The sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer, and the person walked unimpeded all the way. The cordon at the door was like a decoration, and the personnel on duty at the scene did not notice it.

Ming Yan held his breath, looked around in the darkness, and could only see a rough outline.

It was a man, dragging a heavy package, and walked to the bloodstained place, standing there for a long time, as if turning into a sculpture in the dark.After an unknown amount of time, the silence was broken by the sound of a zipper zipping, and the man finally made a move.

Yuan Hou had extraordinary eyesight, and dictated what he saw to Ming Yan: "He took out a human head from the bag."

It seemed that the missing limbs were all in his bag, and sure enough, the man wanted to summon Luo Hu back tonight.

A head, a pair of hands, and a pair of feet were arranged in sequence according to human shapes, and the man who brought them knelt and sat among the broken limbs, prostrating again and again.

His head hit the rough concrete floor, making a muffled sound.

"Is he crazy?" Yuan Houguang felt a pain in his head when he heard this movement, "That person can't feel the pain?"

"He was fascinated." Ming Yan felt chills in his heart when he heard the sound of him grabbing the ground with his head.

Just awakening an evil god would cost four lives. What would happen if Rahu came to this world?

The lengthy prostration ended, and the bloodied man lay among the broken limbs, waiting for the final sacrifice.

"It's broken!" Ming Yan finally realized that the last sacrificer was the man in front of him, "Stop him quickly—"

He is both the sword bearer and the last lamb.

In the darkness, there seemed to be a huge force attacking, trying to tear the life lying on the ground apart.Invisible ropes were wrapped around his limbs and neck, imitating the punishment of quartering a body by five horses.

That invisible force is too powerful, stepping forward to save people at this moment is tantamount to hitting a stone with a pebble.Yuan Hou not only refused to go by himself, but also did not allow Ming Yan to go: "If you walk over rashly, you will be torn apart."

It was only between two sentences that Yuan Hou realized that the man had been ripped off by a leg.

At the same time, a vague black figure gradually condensed into the outline of a human being, as if transformed from the night.If it weren't for Yuan Hou's extraordinary eyesight, he would not have noticed such a change.

And that man seemed to have lost consciousness long ago, still lying peacefully in a big shape, even though his ankles were bleeding like rivers, he never uttered a cry.

Ming Yan's palm ignited a raging fire again, he can burn mutilated limbs, but he needs the cooperation of Yuan Hou: "As long as one is burned, the ceremony will fail."

Yuan Hou didn't shirk, trying to grab a severed hand with extraordinary speed.Unexpectedly, before he got close, there was a huge suction controlling his body, trying to drag him into it.

"As I said, spying on my world is extremely dangerous."

The deep voice echoed in his ears again, and Yuan Hou listened to this familiar words in horror and disbelief, dumbfounded: "You are—"

The whirlwind came from all directions, approaching like a sharp knife, vowing to smash people into mud.Yuan Hou almost thought that the time of his death was approaching, but he saw Ming Yan's palm catching fire, flying towards the hazy figure.

Yuan Hou knew that Ming Yan's surprise attack by himself was tantamount to moths flying into a flame.At the moment of crisis, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, grabbed a severed hand with all his strength, and threw it towards Ming Yan.

The accident happened only in an instant, and Yingying never expected that Yuan Hou was on the verge of death, and he would dare to draw his salary from the bottom of the pot.

Ming Yan got the stump and immediately burned it with the fire of Nirvana.

The blazing flames burned away the turbid evil energy on the stump, but did not burn the flesh.Immediately following, the black shadow that had just condensed into a human form quickly disintegrated.

Yuan Hou fell to the ground, looked at his wrist, his flesh was cracked, if Ming Yan's action was delayed by half a minute, he would definitely die to go out tonight.

"Let's go." Ming Yan heard disordered footsteps approaching. It should be that the guards outside heard the movement and immediately summoned people to rush over.

Although they had invisibility talismans on their bodies, but now that the ceremony was broken, there was no need to stay any longer.Not only Ming Yan, but Yuan Hou also didn't want to stay in this underground garage for a minute.

The two hurried out, hid in a place where no one was around, uncovered the talisman, and went to meet Xiao Congshuo together.

Yuan Hou recalled what happened just now, hesitated to speak several times, and finally couldn't help but remind Ming Yan: "I hope you don't act emotionally."

"That Xiao Congshuo is not someone you can control, listen to my advice, it's still too late to leave him now."

Ming Yan sensed something in Yuan Hou's words, and asked him bluntly: "Do you know something?"

Yuan Hou didn't intend to hide it anymore, and told Ming Yan all the abnormal things he found: "Just now... that figure said a word to me, which was exactly the same as what I heard when I went deep into Xiao Congshuo's mind."

"You mean, there is Luo Hu in Xiao Congshuo's body?" Ming Yan thinks this is nonsense, let's not say that Xiao Congshuo's aura is completely ordinary, how can a man in his 20s carry an ancient man? Cthulhu?

"I can't believe it either, but I really heard what he said." Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, Yuan Hou saw that Xiao Congshuo was already sleeping on the sofa, and persuaded Ming Yan again, "Think carefully, I don't want to Losing one more friend of the same kind."

Ming Yan didn't even hesitate, walked in resolutely, sat on the sofa beside Xiao Congshuo, stared at his sleeping face.

Yuan Hou turned and left, sighing uncontrollably: "It's really crazy... crazy."

In the end, the serial murder case in the underground garage ended with the capture of the last sacrificer as the suspect.The package he brought contained the missing limbs of the victim. Even if it was not the murderer, it was inseparable from this case.

The news was reported continuously for a whole week, and Xiao Congshuo's colleagues were also relieved that the murderer had been captured, but no one would dare to go to the underground garage again.

Regarding this matter, the three people who knew the truth had their own concerns, but they all chose to remain silent.If you rashly say that this is a sacrifice, I'm afraid they will be sent to the madhouse together.
