Chapter 77:
There was no convenience store downstairs, so Yan Nuo had to run farther, crossed two intersections, and walked a few hundred meters further before he could buy cigarettes.
I just lit the cigarette in my mouth, took a deep breath, and felt a lot of irritability in my heart.
Yan Nuo was not in a hurry to go back, so he simply stood outside the convenience store, finished smoking a cigarette, then snuffed out the butt, clapped his hands, and prepared to go back.
At this time, he received a call from Xiao Qi.
"Come on, I have a new discovery!"
The signal over there doesn't seem to be very good, intermittent, and there is wind.
"What new discovery?" Yan Nuo was refreshed, "Wait a moment, I'll go back!"
"It's not an autopsy room...it's a warehouse..." The rustling noise on the phone cut Xiao Qi's words into several pieces, but Yan Nuo could still hear the address.
He said inexplicably: "Why are you running to the warehouse in the suburbs? I've been out for a while, and you're there?!"
Xiao Qi: "Team Zhou... notified... I'm on my way, come quickly!"
Then he hung up the phone.
When Yan Nuo dialed again, he couldn't get through.
He called Team Zhou, but no one answered.
Yan Nuo ran back to the autopsy room on the second floor. Bai Xiangmei's body was still there, but Xiao Qi was gone.
He had to rush out of the garage to drive, and made several calls to Xiao Qi and Team Zhou along the way, but they couldn't get through.
The logistics warehouse that Xiao Qi mentioned, he knows where it is, but he has never been there. There is basically no one around that place at night. What clues will Xiao Qi and Zhou team find there? Could it be the body of Baixiangmei adulterer?
A lot of thoughts flashed through his mind, without delaying the speed of driving, the city of Heron was still beautiful in the middle of the night, and the street lights kept passing overhead with the speed of the car, Yan Nuo always felt as if he had forgotten something, and suddenly a flash of inspiration, Also called Mu Duo.
"Yan Nuo?" From the tone, Mu Duo should be sleeping.
"Muduo, you and the winter solstice hurry to the No. 8 warehouse in Nanshan Science and Technology Park, Nanshan Road. The case here is progressing. I'm rushing over there. Xiao Qi and Team Zhou are already here!"
"Okay, I get it, we'll go there right away." Mu Duo was stunned for a moment, and quickly said.
Yan Nuo didn't want the winter solstice to be involved in this case, but during the day, the kid was obviously out of time, and he insisted on saying that there was an accident in the hotel. As a result, Mu Duobai made a trip, and they also had a false alarm. Yan Nuo mainly thinks that if there is something wrong this time, multiple people will take care of him. If he runs for nothing, he will also make the kid run errands and suffer a little. Live, the guy is still sleeping comfortably in the hotel.
He never imagined that an idea on his whim would save his life soon after.
Warehouse No. 8 is not far from the autopsy room. The road conditions are good at night, and it takes about forty minutes to arrive.
The technology park was quiet, except for the street lights, occasionally a faint light could be seen, which was the warehouse manager on duty at night.
Yan Nuo found a nearby warehouse manager who had not slept yet and was playing with his mobile phone. He first took out his ID to show his identity as a police officer, then asked him where the No. 8 warehouse was, and then asked him if he had seen two men come here. He pointed out the direction, shook his head and said he had not seen it.
The special management bureau has a special identity, and the system does not necessarily know all about it, let alone ordinary people. Yan Nuo and the others are usually attached to the police for convenience. They are on the plane at the winter solstice because they have not officially reported , Without this identity certificate, the name did not have time to be entered, and in the end there was almost a big misunderstanding.
Didn't find Xiao Qi and the others, Yan Nuo had to go to the No. 8 warehouse first.
The door of the warehouse was locked, Yan Nuo walked around the warehouse and found that there was a small door behind it, which was hidden.
He gently pushed it away, and it was dark inside, and nothing could be seen.
"Xiao Qi?" He called tentatively.
Someone inside replied, "I'm here!"
It was Xiao Qi's voice.
Yan Nuo first breathed a sigh of relief, pushed open the door and walked in, saying, "Why don't you turn on the lights, is Team Zhou here?"
"exist."
Concise and concise, just one word.
Team Zhou did not make a sound.
Yan Nuo frowned slightly and slowed down, just as he was about to say something, the door behind him closed automatically, and the seam fit perfectly.
When the door closed, the slam slammed into Yan Nuo's heart like a hammer.
"Xiao Qi! Team Zhou!" He shouted involuntarily, slowly drawing out the sword in his hand as he walked in.
The light tube snapped twice, then lighted up one after another, like Moses dividing the sea, extending from the top of his head to the other end of the warehouse.
Other than that, it was still dark on both sides.
In the distance, Yan Nuo saw three people standing on the other side of the warehouse.
Team Zhou and Xiao Qi are in front, and there is a man behind.
The man patted Xiao Qi on the shoulder, and Xiao Qi said, "I'm here!"
Take another shot.
Xiao Qi: "I'm here!"
His tone was calm, the same as when he was lured into the warehouse just now.
Yan Nuo's heart sank little by little.
He realized that he, as well as Team Zhou and Xiao Qi, had fallen into each other's traps.
"Who are you?" Yan Nuo asked in a deep voice.
The other party smiled: "Aren't you looking for me everywhere? I didn't want to look for you at first, who knew that you would be chasing after you, I'm leaving anyway, the three of you will be given to you by the beautiful Lucheng. My parting gift!"
Yan Nuo's pupils shrank, and he raised his sword and pointed at him.
"You are Bai Xiangmei's adulterer!"
The man smiled and said: "The woman's bed skills are pretty good, but unfortunately, her physical quality is not as good as yours. Even if you extract the soul, it's useless. Unlike you, who is strong in body and a practitioner, the soul can be used for many things."
After that, he waved to Yan Nuo.
"Come here, my third present."
Yan Nuo suddenly had the illusion that he was standing on a cliff, surrounded by abyss in all directions, and there was only a narrow road ahead. He had no choice but to go forward.
He gritted his teeth, clenched the sword in his hand, jumped up, and rushed towards the enemy!
The good dream of the winter solstice was awakened by a phone call from Mu Duo, and then had to get up and put on clothes quickly.
"Brother Yan said something happened, why did you suddenly run so far?"
Until I got in the car, I was still rubbing my eyes on the winter solstice, trying to rub off my sleepiness.
While starting the car, Mu Duo briefly explained the case to him, and finally said: "There should be some new clues in that warehouse, Yan Nuo is also kind, didn't you want to participate before, now he has given This is your chance, don't show your dissatisfaction later."
Winter Solstice nodded and asked again, "Is Xiao Qi dissatisfied with me?"
Mu Duo smiled helplessly: "He didn't specifically target you..."
"Almost forgot! Sister Muduo, stop the car!" Dongzhi suddenly said.
Mu Duo was just a few meters away, when she heard the words, she was startled and quickly braked. "What's wrong?"
The winter solstice said embarrassedly: "I forgot to bring my sword, now I'll go upstairs to get it, wait a moment, soon!"
He was busy getting dressed and went downstairs just now, and now his hands were empty, and he remembered that he forgot to bring his own weapons.
Mu Duo wanted him not to take him, anyway, with Yan Nuo and the others there, nothing could happen, but before the words were spoken, the other party had already opened the car door and hurried back to the hotel, she had to shake her head, thinking that she was really a newcomer.
The winter solstice was not slow, and it took ten minutes to run back and forth. Mu Duo guessed Yan Nuo's mind, and guessed that he wanted to discuss the newcomer, so he didn't say it, and he was not in a hurry.
"Sister Mu Duo, what are you good at?" Winter Solstice asked.
Mu Duo smiled: "Guess what?"
Winter Solstice glanced at her, she looked bright and dressed normally. If she hadn't known her identity earlier, she would definitely not have been associated with practitioners.
"I can't guess." Dongzhi shook his head.
Mu Duo smiled and said, "I'm from Hunan."
The other party didn't answer the question, the winter solstice was a bit dazed, and he had not yet entered the situation: "Do you like spicy food?"
As soon as he finished asking, he woke up: "Are you a Miao girl? Are you using Gu?"
Mu Duo didn't answer and asked, "Have you heard of the corpse in Xiangxi?"
The winter solstice sighed, and suddenly remembered a very ancient occupation: "Are you a corpse hunter?"
Mu Duo nodded.
This is a very special profession. In ancient times, merchants did business outside, and when they were sick, they died in other places. Following the custom of returning leaves to their roots, they would ask people to help bring the corpse back to their hometown for burial, but at that time, cremation was It is regarded as a big taboo, and it is necessary to bury thousands of miles away from home. The industry of corpse hunters came into being. Among them, the corpse hunters in Xiangxi are the most famous. They go out day and night. As long as they take over the business, they will definitely be able to help you. Take people home. As for how the dead were forced to drive, there are various theories about these secrets, and only the corpse driver himself knows.
Today, there is no longer a need for corpse hunting, and it has gradually declined. Now there are very few people who really know this technique, and Mu Duo is the only one left.
Apart from the gods, who can really eat and drink dew. Although the corpse hunters are practitioners, they also have to support their families. Therefore, Mu Duo, contrary to the tradition of previous generations living in seclusion in the countryside, resolutely joined the Special Administration Bureau and became a national practitioner. a member of the .
However, in this place where Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, although her ability is rare, it is not outstanding, so she has stayed in Lucheng and did not go up.
The two came to the entrance of the science and technology park that Yan Nuo said, and Mu Duo called Yan Nuo and the others, but they couldn't get through, so they had to take the winter solstice all the way to the No. 8 warehouse.
Mu Duo pushed the door through which the goods came in and out, but did not move.
"Locked."
The two walked along the warehouse, and just like Yan Nuo before, they also found a small door behind.
The winter solstice pushed it a bit, and found that it could actually be pushed away.
He called Mu Duo over, and the two quietly pushed the door in.
The warehouse is very large, and the lights are on a line, so that people will not be blacked out, but there are still large areas on both sides, which are not illuminated by the lights.
"Yan Nuo? Xiao Qi?" Mu Duo shouted.
No one responded.
"I'll look here, you can look there." She said to the Winter Solstice.
"Sister Mu Duo, I'd better stay with you." The Winter Solstice followed behind her, not leaving an inch.
Mu Duo was a little helpless, thinking that Yan Nuo was right, the newcomer is too timid, can you really count on anything?
The two walked to the left one after the other, and the Winter Solstice suddenly grabbed her.
Mu Duo has become impatient: "What's wrong?"
Winter Solstice said: "Look behind the container on the right, is it a figure?"
Mu Duo looked in the direction he pointed.
In the shadow behind the container, out of the dim light, two people were indeed falling to the ground.
Mu Duo walked with the winter solstice.
"Team Zhou! Xiao Qi!" Mu Duo was startled and hurriedly bent over to push them.
With just this push, Team Zhou fell to the ground.
Mu Duo sensed something was wrong, and reached out to check each other's pulse.
"How is it?" The Winter Solstice probe asked.
"Dead." Mu Duo felt cold all over, so she hurried to check on Xiao Qi again. "He still has a heartbeat! It's very weak, come on, help me get him to the ground and lie down!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a cool breeze blowing from the back of her head.
A shadow descended from the hood.
Dangerous induction subconsciously rose, Mu Duo turned back suddenly, a familiar face came into view, but followed by the sword light in the opponent's hand.
Mu Duo's eyes widened.
In the blink of an eye, she has the ability to teleport, and I am afraid it is too late to dodge now.
But what made her even more unacceptable was that the person who wanted to kill her turned out to be her former companion.
Zheng!
Another sword light flashed across the line of sight.
The winter solstice opened Yan Nuo's sword and shouted, "Brother Yan, what's wrong with you, wake up!"
Of course Yan Nuo ignored him. His eyes were red, and he stared at the Winter Solstice as if he had killed his father. : "Mu Duo, look around, don't be tricked!"
No need for him to remind, Mu Duo has already reflected at this time, Yan Nuo and Zhou team must have been brought over to be plotted against, who can bring down two cultivators one after another, they will definitely not be ordinary people, maybe they are more present than them. Everyone is powerful, and now even Yan Nuo is under control, only she and the winter solstice are left, can they both turn the tide?
Mu Duo had no idea in her heart, she reached into her pocket and found a bell.
This bell was slightly larger than her palm, and it was covered with lines, completely different from the bells Xiao Qi had seen in the autopsy room.
She shook it, and the bell made a heavy sound like an ancient bell, not as crisp as a normal bell.
Mu Duo rattled the bell from slow to fast, first, then, and then faster and faster. She slowly turned around on the spot, her eyes staring at the surroundings.
Suddenly, the items on the container fell down and fell on her head!
Mu Duo reacted quickly, dodged away, and looked up.
"Behind!" Dongzhi suddenly shouted.
Mu Duo's whole body was tense, almost already forming a conditioned reflex. Hearing the sound, he hurriedly turned back and threw a long strip with his other hand. Colored cloth strips.
The cloth strip is much softer than the whip, but in Mu Duo's hands, it is like a snake, long or short, soft or hard, as you like.
Mu Duo's wrist flicked, and one end of the cloth was rolled towards the neck of the visitor, but the other party stretched out his hand and grasped it firmly, and the whiskers at the end of the cloth were turned into poisonous snakes for a moment. , Mu Duo was taken aback, and was about to pull back the strip of cloth, but the poisonous snake was so powerful that she couldn't pull it at all. The man behind the poisonous snake sneered, holding a short dagger and stabbing her between the eyebrows.
The winter solstice uses a sword, and Yan Nuo also uses a sword.
But after all, the winter solstice has only practiced swords for half a month. In terms of proficiency and skills, he is not Yan Nuo's opponent. More importantly, he has no intention of killing his companions, but Yan Nuo has been controlled at this time. His mind was red, his eyes were red, his expression was ferocious, and he was sure to kill with every move.
But the teachings of Long Shen in the past were still in his ears, he quickly settled his mind, squeezed the rune in his hand, and let out the sword wind and swept towards Yan Nuo.
Once the fluffy rune touched Yan Nuo's forehead, it did not fall again, and Yan Nuo's body also froze slightly. Winter Solstice took the opportunity to unload his sword and directly kicked him in the heart, kicking people to the ground. It slammed **** the shelf.
Yan Nuo had no good words for him before. The winter solstice kick was regarded as a "public revenge". After the kick, he felt refreshed, but this thought disappeared in a flash. He quickly ran forward and took out a bright light talisman. He squeezed Yan Nuo's chin, put the rune into his mouth, and then picked up the hemp rope that fell from the shelf, tying up everyone's hands and feet, lest he wake up and make trouble again.
Before this one was finished, there was an exclamation from the other Muduo.
The winter solstice couldn't care about other things, and hurriedly took up the sword and went over to make a clearance.
In front of the man, a venomous snake that stood up to a person's height was hissing and spitting out snake letters.
In order to resist the man's attack, the cloth strip in Mu Duo's hand finally had to withdraw, and watched as her weapon turned into food in the mouth of the poisonous snake.
The scales of the poisonous snake are colorful, and it is indeed a bit scary to look at, but after all, the winter solstice has also seen three giant pythons and someone who has stabbed other people's chrysanthemums. This poisonous snake is only a pediatrician to him.
But he thought of the identity of a man from this poisonous snake.
"Are you an Onmyoji?"
The man showed a playful smile, and he admitted it generously.
"My lord, Kiyoshi Yamamoto, please give me more advice."
Winter Solstice: "What's your relationship with Fujikawa Aoi?"
The man raised his eyebrows: "Do you know my senior brother?"
This is really a narrow road for the enemy, and the winter solstice rolled his eyes secretly: "You all immigrated from your family? Can't Japan's land hold you, and you have to travel all the way here to cause trouble?"
The man smiled and said, "It seems that you have already fought with my senior brother. I heard that in the end, the Japanese government agreed to a lot of conditions in exchange for him, and also promised that he and his disciples would not be allowed to come to China for 50 years? But don't worry. , I'm not the same as him, if I were him, I would have committed suicide by Caesarean, how could I have the face to continue to survive in Japan?"
Winter Solstice frowned: "I will defeat you later, don't forget what you said now, cut yourself off immediately, don't be ashamed of living in the world."
The man laughed and said, "I saw you fight him just now. It must have been a while since you learned swordsmanship, right? Children, it's not a good thing to talk big words.
Mu Duo gasped and said sternly: "You killed Team Zhou and Xiao Qi?! Bai Xiangmei and Huang Wendong's family were also your hands. Why did you do this!"
The man has a Kimura Takuya-style hairstyle and stubble on his chin. He has a somewhat blurred temperament. At first glance, he thought he was a street artist, and the bad smile on his face can also attract many women, but in Knowing that he was the mastermind behind the murder of the Huang family and killed his own companion, in the eyes of Mu Duo and Dongzhi, all the outward modifications of the other party at the moment were just to cover up the brutal beast in their hearts.
Yamamoto Kiyoshi's demeanor was very leisurely, which made them even more vigilant during the winter solstice. It stands to reason that now the enemy is dark and I am clear, they have no idea what trap the other party has laid here. It should be them, not Yamamoto, who want to delay the time, but the other party does not seem to be in a hurry to make a move, and patiently explained the ins and outs to them. .
