Chapter 28 The Wharf

Early in the morning, Jingxian was frying eggs in the kitchen.

After Lu YingJiu woke up, breakfast was set on the table.He didn't sleep well last night. He was half -dreaming all night. He began to doze in the morning. If it was not seduced by the aroma of the food, it is estimated that he was still sleeping in bed.

It's still raining outside.

It's just a light rain, very quiet, without the violent feeling of the previous two days.

He took a mouthful of fried eggs, and Jing Xian handed him a glass of water at the right time.

The phone rang, and it was Ye Feng who called.

He answered the phone, and Ye Feng said, "Hey, something happened, Chen Zheng was stabbed last night."

Lu Yingjiu drank the porridge for a moment, and asked, "What do you mean by being stabbed?"

"In the literal sense, I was hit several times. Now I am in the ICU for rescue, and I am not out of danger." Ye Feng said, "The other party is very ruthless. It is because he put a piece of talisman paper in his pocket and continued it for him. He couldn't bear Chu Banyang to find him at all. It was a coincidence that Young Master Chu went halfway and found that the documents had been missed, so he went to Chen Zheng's house."

He forced a laugh: "This old fox is really dead."

Lu Yingjiu put down the spoon in his hand and narrowed his eyes: "How is the situation at the scene?"

"Chu Banyang is investigating, a large group of people have passed by the Chen family." Ye Feng said, "There are two bad news. The first one is that the key kept by Chen Zheng is missing. After checking the evidence room, all the evidence was found. It's gone, including the human skin masks found."

Lu Yingjiu frowned and asked, "What's the second bad news?"

"Fan Xin is also gone." Ye Feng said, "The nurse went to the room in the morning and found that the room was empty. Her whereabouts are still unknown."

Lu Yingjiu: "..."

He took a deep breath and rubbed his brow bone before restraining his urge to curse.

Then he stood up and said, "I'll go get the man back."

Ye Feng was taken aback: "How did you find it?"

"I will always find a way, right? And I have a very bad feeling that Fan Xin is in danger." Lu Yingjiu hung up the phone.

Fan Xin was haunted by ghosts. No matter what she thought, she should not ask him for help, but the accomplice who provided her with the mask. But she didn't do it, and there is a high probability that something went wrong between them.

When he brought Fan Xin to the hospital, Lu Yingjiu had a good heart and left a little paper figure on her body.

His level is high. If he really wants to hide it, other ghost exorcists will not be able to find the paper figurine.

And Fan Xin alone could not escape the ward.

She must have been taken away. In the good direction, the accomplice will save her; in the worst possible guess, the accomplice will kill her.

There is a backpack at the door, with everything Lu Yingjiu needs to go out. He carried his backpack and two thick raincoats.

He and Jingxian got into the car.

Jingxian asked, "Where are you going?"

"East." Lu Yingjiu pulled on his seat belt, "drive all the way to the beach."

...

The sound of waves.

The abandoned dock warehouse is full of the fishy smell of sea water. Looking out from the cramped window, only the blue sky can be seen. The clouds were thick, and a light rain fell.

The girl in the hospital gown was nestled in the corner, her hair was scattered, her hands were tied behind her back, and there were several dragging wounds on her back and legs. The wounds were mixed with sand, bright red and hideous. She was forcibly dragged out of the hospital and brought here all the way. The ropes on her legs had long since loosened. She could have escaped, but...

In front of her, a golden monkey was squatting.

Seeing that she made a move, it immediately bared its teeth, revealing a fang that was strong enough to bite off a steel plate.

Fan Xin knew how powerful the gods invited by the exorcist were.

Certainly not something she can match.

At the end of the warehouse, there was a rustling sound. The man was looking for something, and he seemed to sense the restlessness of the ape, and said, "I advise you to be honest, this guy has eaten human flesh."

Fan Xin shivered.

She looked at Chen Qi's back.

From the beginning of planning that murder, she knew that the other party was a cold-blooded person - she was not afraid at that time, but felt happy, because cold-blooded is what she needs most.

But she didn't expect how terrifying it would be when this coldness was directed at her in the past six years.

After Chen Qi finished arranging things, he found more than a dozen fake ID cards, fake passports, and a large amount of cash hidden in the warehouse. Those banknotes were carefully placed in the box, and when they were opened, they were filled with pink, which was very exciting.

These things have been here for an unknown number of years, but they finally came in handy today, enough to make him fly away.

Carrying these things, with his chubby body erect, he walked back with some difficulty and sat on the wooden box opposite Fan Xin.

The crate groaned under his weight.

Chen Qi came with a human skin mask along the way, but when he was looking for something, he was accidentally scratched by a scrap iron sheet.

The mask is inherently fragile, and the slashes are rolled outwards, which is extraordinarily strange.

He touched his face, realized this, and with a tut, took off the entire mask and put it beside him.

This time, the familiar face appeared in front of Fan Xin again.

Before the corresponding speedboat came, the sea breeze was blowing outside, and the black waves hit the pier, blooming white.

Chen Qi stroked his sweaty black hair back, looking at the shivering girl in front of him, he suddenly had the urge to reminisce.

"You were 16 when I first met you, and now you're that old," he said.

Fan Xin did not speak.

Chen Qi shook his head and said, "You were so smart at that time, why did you go back the more you lived? When you said you wanted to retaliate against Chen Yanyan, it was very neat."

After a long time, Fan Xin said with a trembling voice, "You, you let me go, I won't say anything. I haven't mentioned your name at all these days."

"Let you go?" Chen Qi laughed, "You made a mistake from the beginning, you shouldn't have gone to Lu Yingjiu for help, and took him to the slaughterhouse. If it weren't for him, I could have dragged him for a while. two years."

Mentioning Lu Yingjiu's name, his brows flashed with anger, and he said in a low voice, "Anyway, he is about to die... It's only half a year..."

The voice was so low that Fan Xin couldn't hear it clearly.

Chen Qi patted the suitcase behind him again, and said with a smile: "In two days, they will definitely find me on my head. That guy Chen Ming is a waste. If he goes to a warehouse to destroy the evidence, he can be caught. The mouth is not strict, and what should be said and should not be said will definitely be explained. They should have found out today, but my brother died, enough to make them confused for a few days. "

Fan Xin looked at him in disbelief.

"What? Do you think I won't attack my brother?" Chen Qi clicked his tongue, "He's so stupid, and he's very hard-headed on some issues. I don't know how much effort I've put in to guard against him over the years. Anyway, you're not important at all, but you're the only one who knows the whole thing. Now that you don't die, I always feel like I can't sleep well."

6 years ago, Chen Qi had been planning how to get rid of Chen Minlan's family.

He has been producing human skin masks at the Sidong slaughterhouse, and through logistics, he sold the masks without anyone knowing it. After so many years, Chen Minlan suddenly found a clue one day.

As the head of the Chen family, Chen Minlan is an upright person and must not tolerate this kind of behavior, so he used a large number of people to investigate. Chen Qi has always been cautious, but after all, the fire cannot be contained in the paper. Seeing that it is a matter of time to be discovered, he immediately became murderous.

He has never found a suitable breakthrough.

Murder is one thing, how to cover it up is another. After all, Chen Minlan's family are all ghost exorcists, so how could they be so careless and invite ghosts for no reason?

He wanted to start with Chen Yanyan, who didn't know how to exorcise ghosts, but the time was tight and he didn't have much chance.

At this time, Fan Xin entered his line of sight.

When Chen Qi observed Chen Yanyan secretly, he saw that they sometimes put on masks and exchanged identities - he knew the technique of weaving clouds too well, and Chen Yanyan used a mask made of animal skins, so he could see it at a glance Come out flaws.

He took a little more effort to find out.

The thoughts of the two female high school students were no secret to him at all, and he quickly figured out the situation.

Chen Yanyan forced Fan Xin to switch identities with her. And she usually gets along with her classmates, relying on her knowledge of simple little spells, she is beautiful, arrogant, and very unlikable.

But usually she likes to play with Fan Xin, and she is a "good girlfriend".

Fan Xin's appearance is plain, because she grew up in a poor family and dressed in rustic clothes. Standing with Chen Yanyan is like an ugly duckling and a white swan. Fan Xin's boyfriend is Lu Fanghong, and don't know if it was intentional or not. When they were playing together, Chen Yanyan always hugged Lu Fanghong or patted him on the head, making some unnecessary physical contact.

Lu Fanghong didn't know if it was because of his weak personality and didn't dare to refuse, or if he really had no bottom line and let Chen Yanyan come like this.

Chen Yanyan enjoyed this contrast, but did not notice the jealousy and resentment towards her in Fan Xin's eyes.

Chen Qi noticed.

One afternoon after school, he wore a human skin mask, carefully disguised himself as a high school student, and found Fan Xin alone.

"I know you are swapping identities." He said bluntly, "I am also from the Chen family, and I need you to do me a favor."

Fan Xin took a half step back vigilantly.

Chen Qi said: "I specialize in masks. Do you want to be as beautiful as Chen Yanyan? I can help you do it."

Fan Xin's eyes moved.

Chen Qi continued: "What you have to do is very simple. You go and talk to Chen Yanyan, you want to try your courage, and you want to play a supernatural game."

Fan Xin finally said, "Why? What exactly do you want to do?"

Chen Qi spread his hands and said: "It's a private matter between me and her. I just want to scare her and make her think that she has been overtaken by a ghost. How about it, think about it?" He smiled, "The mask I made But it's very realistic."

Fan Xin looked up at him: "...will you hurt her?"

Chen Qi thought she couldn't bear it and promised hypocritically, "It's just to scare her."

Unexpectedly, Fan Xin shook her head and said, "I thought you could be more ruthless."

Chen Qi was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "You'll find out later. In this way, I'll tell you which date to choose. Chen Yanyan's younger brother is about to have his birthday..."

Later, Fan Xin really found an excuse to say that she wanted to play a supernatural game.

Chen Yanyan was originally not interested, but he didn't want to appear timid, so he said, otherwise, let's go to the slaughterhouse, where I am familiar.

Chen Qi gave Fan Xin the ghost's obsession in advance.

He had murderous intentions on Chen Yanyan from the beginning: if he wanted Fan Xin to impersonate her and contact Chen Minlan, then Chen Yanyan had to die.

But what they didn't expect was that Chen Yanyan and Ke Yu accidentally bumped into each other and encountered a sheep ghost and a human skin mask when they escaped.

Fortunately, this change didn't affect the plan: Ke Yu was a complete layman, so he was easy to fool. Chen Yanyan was also killed by him in the identity of "Fan Xin", and his body was thrown into the sea.

The real Fan Xin took the ghosts and went to KTV.

She has been imitating Chen Yanyan for a long time, even in front of her family, she can delay a lot of time.

That day, Chen Yanyan's younger brother ran around screaming, singing out-of-key songs, and the unpacked gift boxes were scattered all over the place. There is also a cake in the private room to celebrate his 6th birthday, which is cut with delicious cream and strawberries.

It's fun.

Until Fan Xin released the Specter when they were most relaxed.

Back in time, in the seaside warehouse, Fan Xin closed her eyes, as if she could still recall the large scarlet that bloomed in front of her eyes, blood splattered on the unfinished cakes and birthday gifts. She was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground, seeing the woman hugging the child tightly, the talisman paper in the man's hand slowly soaked in red, and the old lady's blood-stained hand clutching the phone tightly.

The phone displays a sent text message.

...do you want to ask for help?

Fan Xin couldn't think anymore, and didn't have the courage to check it out.

She just sat in the blood and let out a whimpering, little scream.

Time to return to this abandoned seaside warehouse.

Chen Qi said casually, "Do you know what I regret the most? It was when I gave you a talisman and didn't let you be killed by that ghost together."

Fan Xin opened her mouth.

She knew that she was definitely going to die, but anger grew in her chest. She bit her lip and said, "But you didn't tell me that the ghost stayed on me after killing their whole family."

"You should feel lucky: it was injured by Chen Minlan and slept for 6 years. It wasn't until Chen Minlan's old and immortal, and the ghosts were disappeared. Recently, it ran out again before it woke up." Chen Qi laughed, "Originally," Originally, "originallyYou damn it early. "

"That's why I had to find Lu Yingjiu." Fan Xin looked at him, "I exposed you."

"Yes, yes." Chen Qi sighed, "That's why I said that what I regret the most is that I didn't kill you together. In the next few years, you were young and soft-hearted. It really shouldn't be. But it doesn't matter, today We can still make amends.”

He looked at the time: "It's almost time, let's go."

Ling Ape pointed at Fan Xin and showed her fangs. Seeing that she got up slowly, with a wave of her claws, a bloodstain was left on her smooth calf.

Fan Xin snorted, under its threat, she had to stumble and follow Chen Qi to the back door of the warehouse.

There was a car covered by a black dust cloth, and the rain hit the cloth and made a dab dab sound. Chen Qi lifted the black cloth, and underneath was a Range Rover.

He opened the back door and said to Fan Xin, "Go in."

Ling Ape roared behind her in a timely manner, then ran up to her shoulders and pulled her hair. Fan Xin felt her toes curled up, but she still had to get into the car.

Chen Qi started the Land Rover and drove all the way along the seaside towards the distant pier.

He said, "Which sea do you like? After we have known each other for a few years, I left you in a place that you like." He smiled again, "But there are not many choices, the most you can choose is the north-south orientation. ."

Fan Xin gritted her teeth and did not speak.

The car drove smoothly, but her stomach was clenched, and her body was as heavy as a stone, falling madly. She felt sick to the point of vomiting, looked at the blue sky in the distance, closed her eyes, and remembered the scene six years ago.

...this is probably a bad thing. she thought.

It's just that the death of Chen's family came quickly. And her death was chronic, a little bit of blunt knife cutting flesh 6 years ago.

She checked her face again from the rearview mirror of the car.

Dry skin and chapped lips. Her hair is messy, her eyes are not big, all red blood, and the bridge of her nose is not upright. No matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with the beauty.

She hadn't looked at herself like this for many years.

Chen Qi did not tell her that Chen Yanyan would die as "Fan Xin".

By the time she realized this, it was difficult to ride a tiger.

She can't take off Chen Yanyan's mask, otherwise, the truth will be revealed... Everyone will know that she is the murderer of that family.

She played Chen Yanyan like this for so long. Sometimes I get confused and don't know who I really am.

Finally, until today, don't have to play anymore.

Fan Xin closed her eyes, her hands hurt by the rope.

When she opened her eyes again, in the rearview mirror, she saw a black car following them.

In the thin rain screen, is a black Maybach.

Her mind froze for a few seconds: here, how could there be other cars? Did someone accidentally get lost?

Chen Qi also noticed it, cursed in a low voice, and stepped on the accelerator to accelerate.

He was not sure who was coming, for fear that he would overreact, but instead exposed the abnormality.

The monkey had been lying on Fan Xin's shoulder. At this time, he murmured a few times, and suddenly seemed to have found something and reached out to grab it.

The sharp claws scratched the back of Fan Xin's neck, and she got goose bumps all over.

"Zi La-"

Then her shoulders lightened, and the monkey screamed and jumped to the front seat, the outstretched paw was smoking!

It was scalded so badly that its fur was black, and there was a faint smell of scorched meat.

And behind Fan Xin's neck, a little white paper figure stood up.

It was tucked into the waist alive and seemed to be provoking the monkey.

Chen Qi's pupils shrank suddenly.

The runes on the paper man's body flickered slightly, and they were clearly the runes that tracked the location!

how is this possible! When he took Fan Xin out of the hospital, he clearly checked it carefully!

After all, he is from the Chen family, and his level is still very good. How could he not even find such an obvious paper figurine.

unless……

Chen Qi's scalp felt numb.

If it was another ghost exorcist who came, and he was confident that he could handle it, he was afraid that he would come...

He slammed on the accelerator with one foot, the car whistled and ran towards the sea.

The Maybach in the rear mirror was in hot pursuit, and the speed gradually increased. It accelerated very violently, smashing straight through the rain curtain, and no matter how Chen Qi's instrument panel pointer rose, the distance was getting closer little by little.

The speed is still increasing.

80, 90, 100... 130, 150, 180.

Chen Qi was so nervous that his palms were sweating, the scenery outside the window became a straight line, the rain crackled on the window, the lightning was pale, and the thunder rolled from the sky and burst into the ears.

The distance is getting closer.

The Maybach was almost stuck to the back of the Land Rover. Chen Qi glanced back quickly and saw a completely unfamiliar man in the driver's seat.

He froze for a moment.

There was no one else in the co-pilot, so it wasn't Lu Yingjiu who came?

But he saw Jing Xian raised the corner of his mouth at him and smiled, with a strong sense of sarcasm.

The front of the Land Rover suddenly heavy.

Chen Qi abruptly retracted his gaze, only to see that there was clearly one more person on the front cover of the car.

But this is in a car with a speed of 200 kilometers per hour, how did this person get up!

Turning back to the headlights, he couldn't see the other's face, only a pair of bright, silver-gray eyes.

The next second, a hand pierced the glass and grabbed his throat among the thousands of glass fragments!

Chen Qi had put talisman paper all over the car, but at this time the talisman paper was flaming, and the breath rushed towards the visitor fiercely. However, this iron-shattering air flow fell on the opponent without even cutting the clothes, and was scattered. Chen Qi's scalp was numb, he slammed the steering wheel, and the high-speed car made an emergency turn and rushed towards the sea at a dangerous angle.

The inertia was too great, and Fan Xin was thrown abruptly, her head hitting the glass, and her eyes were pitch black.

Before she could react, the feeling of being in the air came.

Her eyes widened: this Land Rover is in the air!

boom!

After a brief sense of weightlessness, the Land Rover fell into the sea, splashing huge splashes of water. The sea water rushed in from the broken glass, and Fan Xin was slapped in the face by the sea water. After drinking a few mouthfuls of water, her hands were still tightly bound. She twisted hard, but to no avail. She wanted to open her eyes to see the situation clearly, but the pungency of the sea water made her eyes almost unable to open.

The next second, her neckline was heavy.

She tried her best to look up, and with the dim light of the headlights, she saw Lu Yingjiu's face half-bright and half-dark, and her hair was lightly curled by the sea water.

He stretched out his hand and dragged her out of the car.

There was another sharp pain in Fan Xin's feet. When she looked back, it turned out that the spirit ape grabbed her right ankle in the car!

The sharp claws scratched the skin, and the blood floated in the sea water. The golden-haired monkey's hair was like a burning flame, and all the seawater around him was boiling. It showed its fierceness, opened its mouth, and was about to bite her with its fangs!

After this mouthful, you can see the bones directly.

But it didn't work out.

Fan Xin watched helplessly as a terrifying giant black hand appeared from the deep seabed and under the body of the Land Rover.

That ghost hand has sharp nails, and the palm of the hand is five or six times bigger than Land Rover. It looks like some kind of monster floating up from the deep sea, the shadow covers the whole body, with a light grip——

The metal was crumpled like a piece of paper, and the body of the ape was still in the car, and the blood mist spread out, and it was pinched to death without even screaming.

The ghosts and gods invited by the ghost exorcist cannot really "die" because they are not in the world.

But the power of this grip is still too terrifying. Lu Yingjiu had never seen a ghost who died so swiftly.

In the icy sea water, Lu Yingjiu only felt warm on his back.

Jing Xian drove the nearly ten million Maybach, the accelerator did not loosen at all, and went into the sea with them. At this moment, he hugged Lu Yingjiu tightly from behind, trying to take him to the sea.

Lu Yingjiu grabbed him with a backhand.

In the dark and icy sea water, they looked at each other.

A very short, very long glance.

In just half a second, Jingxian understood: Lu Yingjiu knew.

Know that he is a ghost, not a human.
