Obsessive hunting Ⅰ

The residence that Liu Ruyan packed up for the two of them was a guest room, but the space was actually very narrow, and the bed was not much wider than an ordinary single bed, so it was unrealistic for Li Yunsheng and Qi Mo to sleep together. .

The sun was shining warmly through the window lattice, and the early-rising Xuese was standing in front of the window sill exercising her muscles and bones, then she turned her head and shouted angrily: "Wake up——"

Li Yunsheng was awakened from his hazy sleep. He subconsciously turned over to the side, but his center of gravity was unstable and he almost fell off the bed. At the critical moment, Qi Mo behind him didn't even open his eyes, and directly stretched out his hand to pull him back.

The sound of Qi Mo's heart beating strongly hit Li Yunsheng's eardrums. He woke up instantly, and hurriedly lifted the quilt to his feet: "What are you doing?"

"It's just to prevent you from falling on your face." Qi Mo slowly opened his eyes, looking at him with clear eyes, "I can understand if you don't say thank you, but it's inappropriate to blame me, right?"

"...Who has that spare time to ask you." Li Yunsheng got out of bed with his clothes on, and took the cup of cold tea on the table and drank it in one gulp. "Hurry up, didn't you say you are going to Zhao's house today?"

Xue Se flapped her wings and asked, "Aren't you leaving after breakfast?"

He glanced at her: "It's important, can you look like an elder?"

"It's nothing more than a meal. Is it necessary to rise to the level of principle? Do you think it's rare for me to be your elder?" Xuese, who couldn't eat breakfast, was very angry, and the consequence of the so-called anger was that she held Li Yunsheng's collar in her mouth and acted neatly Throw him out the door, "Stop talking nonsense, act as soon as possible!"

"..."

Considering that Liu Ruyan was always worried about the safety of the two of them, in order to prevent her from thinking wildly as a weak woman, Li Yunsheng and Qi Mo bypassed the front yard, and let Xue Se take them over the wall and leave.

Naturally, the trip to Zhao's house will not go smoothly, after all, they intercepted the boys and girls in the temple in public, and they were also suspected of killing the mayor and having an affair with a ghost. Now they are regarded as wolves by the whole town. Is there any reason why it is easy to come to visit?

But Li Yunsheng didn't care about this. Standing on the stone steps, he knocked on the vermilion lacquered door without hesitation. After a while, he heard footsteps coming from inside. The door opened, and a face with heavy make-up appeared in his sight. .

The young woman carefully identified him once, and immediately changed her expression: "You...you are not the murderer who murdered the mayor?!"

She hurriedly called the young and strong laborers in the house to come around, as if there was a slight mistake, and the two young men opposite were about to start a killing spree.

Li Yunsheng didn't care about those people's gazes of contempt, disgust or fear. He scratched his hair lazily, and said impatiently, "What is this for? Just like everyone else, could it be that you saw me kill someone with your own eyes?"

Someone immediately retorted: "Even if you didn't kill anyone, you still have something to do with the evil ghosts in this town. Last night, the fourth son of the Qian family clearly saw you two fleeing into Youlong Temple. After midnight, the ghosts haunted you. Every family saw that picture. It’s a grimace—but you’re not dead, how do you explain that?!”

"You are so strange, why don't you allow us to be blessed?"

"You are a nonsense!"

Qi Mo smiled when he heard the words: "In your eyes, ghosts are terrible, but in our eyes, those evil obstacles are no different from biting dogs, let alone deadly."

This is the truth, but it's a pity that it can't convince these stubborn people, especially the young woman from the Zhao family.

"Do you think you can fool us with such plausible rhetoric?"

Qi Mo still responded with a good temper: "You must know that we are not locals. It is meaningless to lie to you. We just possess magic skills and specialize in hunting lonely ghosts that haunt the world. We happened to find this place and want to return this town. One side is peaceful.”

The young woman sneered: "That sounds nice, so why don't you show us some spells?" As soon as this remark was said, the strong laborers of the Zhao family around echoed it, full of sarcasm looking at the show.

Li Yunsheng said unhappily: "We are not entertainers, do you want to perform, so we have to perform? Crazy."

"In this case, it is enough to prove that you are lying." The young woman said disdainfully, "As early as that day, when you helped that bitch Liu Ruyan to attack the mayor, I knew that you two were not good people, maybe this Youlong All kinds of strange things in the town are caused by you and Liu Ruyan - arrest them now, take them to the town hall, and order them to pay with their lives!"

A certain hulking man was about to grab Li Yunsheng's arm aggressively after hearing the instructions. Unexpectedly, the moment he touched the red leaf bracelet, he screamed in pain as if struck by lightning, and hurriedly backed up a few steps.

"This kid has demon skills!"

Li Yunsheng met their bewildered eyes, didn't say much, just went straight to the young woman, saw her almond-eyed eyes wide open and raised her hand to slap himself, so he simply clamped her wrist, and firmly controlled her by the door .

"You are Zhao Mengan's wife, right? You are in charge of this family now?"

"...What does this have to do with you?"

"I mean, I want to ask, where is the statue of Suan Ni cast by the Zhao family hidden? If you are in charge, you should understand."

Zhao's wife gritted her teeth and pushed him away: "This has nothing to do with you!"

Qi Mo turned his gaze slightly, and when he found that the young men of the Zhao family wanted to pull Li Yunsheng away, he stopped them lightly.

His tone was very gentle: "Please be patient and don't be impatient. We will not be violent unless it is absolutely necessary."

"..."

"But if you insist on not cooperating, then I can't guarantee how the situation will develop later."

However, there are some people who don't believe in this evil, and think that he must be easy to beat because he is white and thin, so he swung his casserole-sized fist to greet him in the face, just as Li Yunsheng turned his head and looked at him, he immediately kicked him in the middle The man kicked him in the lower abdomen, causing him to fall several meters away.

Li Yunsheng clenched his long and slender fingers, and his joints creaked: "Mrs. Zhao, I was just asking you for the whereabouts of the statue, and I didn't want to take your life and insult your chastity. Is it because you are worried about your resistance?"

Mrs. Zhao was finally defeated by his gloomy eyes. She refused to meet his gaze, but her tone was still very strong.

"I'm frank and frank, so what worries do I have? I don't trust you, it's just because you have a relationship with Liu Ruyan's flirtatious bastard. Since you are her adopted little boy, how can you be a good person!"

Qi Mo looked at her indifferently: "Mrs. Zhao, please be careful with your words. We don't know any grievances between you and Mrs. Liu, and we don't care. We just want to ask where the Suan Ni statue is."

However, it turns out that there is no need to ask any more questions here, just now I took advantage of the chaos and flew into the snowy Zhao's house to search around, and finally found the statue of Suan Ni under the table of the ancestral hall.

She grabbed the statue with her paws and flew all the way to Li Yunsheng. The latter took the statue and weighed it, and couldn't help laughing: "It really is here."

Zhao's wife became angry with embarrassment: "My husband brought it back from the temple to ward off evil spirits. Why can't we take back the things cast by our Zhao family?!"

"The town spends money to ask you to cast it. After casting it, it will be something in the temple. How can you take it back if you want?"

Qi Mo took the statue from Li Yunsheng's hand, the two exchanged a glance, and quickly reached a silent consensus: there is nothing wrong with the statue.

But if the statue is all right, then another conjecture from before gave birth to some clues.

He said softly: "I hope Mrs. Zhao won't hold grudges. We ran into the mayor in the street just to pity the pair of children who were about to die. It's true that we didn't kill the mayor. It doesn't matter if you believe it or not." , but the evil ghosts who are causing harm to the world cannot be indulged, no one else can do this except us, Madam Zhao please think twice."

Sometimes Li Yunsheng still admires Qi Mo very much, and admires his ability to control and let go of his emotions. He is always so calm and calm, but he can't do it. After his patience is exhausted, he just wants to use violence to solve it.

Obviously, Qi Mo's persuasion had an effect after all, Zhao's wife was silent for a while, and she really hesitated.

She said, "Do you really have the ability to exorcise ghosts?"

Li Yunsheng took a piece of talisman paper and flashed it in front of her eyes. Seeing that the talisman paper ignited spontaneously without wind, a ball of flame had been captured in his palm in an instant. He raised his hand and pressed it on the vermilion lacquered door. A charred black palm print: "Hey, didn't you want to see it just now, did you see it now?"

"..." Everyone around was startled and retreated collectively. Mrs. Zhao hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it. She rubbed her chest with lingering fear, "Okay, okay, what do you want to ask, ask quickly!"

Qi Mo pondered for a long time, and then said slowly: "What relationship did Madam Liu have with the Zhao family?"

"Origin?" Zhao's wife spat angrily, "How can the prostitutes who come out of Yanhualiu Lane have any relationship with the Zhao family? My husband was young and frivolous at that time, and he had an affair with her, and then the prodigal son turned around Don't want her anymore, she entangled her for a long time before she gave up completely and just married that short-lived poor Zhang Yinglong."

"Zhang Yinglong?" Li Yunsheng suddenly remembered the portrait in Liu Ruyan's house, he frowned slightly, "How did Zhang Yinglong die?"

Mrs. Zhao gave him a strange look: "It is said that he died of a sudden illness. How do I know the specifics? Have you asked enough? Get out if you have asked enough. Don't forget what you just promised. Anyway, this evil matter will not be resolved. , I don’t think you will be able to leave Youlong Town anymore.”

The door was closed again, and the door knocker made a crisp sound. The two stood in place for a long time, until Xuese sighed annoyedly, and proposed to them.

"Why don't you go eat something first, and then send the Suan Ni statue back to Youlong Temple?"
