Yanshan Records

Chapter 26

Gu Yinhan, who just took a breath, was besieged again immediately after his seal dropped, and couldn't help shouting: "A murder case is about to happen in front of you right now, can you still be distracted?"

Gu Su came back to his senses, immediately picked up the seal, took out a piece of talisman paper, his fingers were trembling uncontrollably, he forcibly calmed down, and held his wrist with the other hand, he found that the chanting of the spell in his mouth The voice is also trembling.

After struggling to recite the short incantation, a fire dragon rushed out of the talisman, burning the talisman paper. Gu Su stared at the man, not daring to move away for a moment. Forget about the pain.

The fire dragon exploded in the air, and the heat wave and the blasted fire cloud impacted on the armor soldiers, and the strong air current knocked them away.The first to bear the brunt were the two armored soldiers closest to him. Their weapons were thrown off their hands, and all the cloth that had been corroded for a long time was burned.

Afterwards, the cloud of fire quickly rushed backwards, slamming the armored soldier holding the giant ax against the wall, and the carbonized material dropped a layer of black ash on the ground after being hit.

Gu Yinhan couldn't dodge in time, and a strand of hair on his forehead was cured. He cursed secretly, shocked by the power of this talisman.

The power of a spell is actually immeasurable, and it is all determined by the caster's mind. If the heart is sincere and the mind is firm, the power that can be aroused will be greater.

After a successful blow, Gu Su ran a few steps in the direction of that person, but found that he was also rushing towards him, so he couldn't help but stop.The distance between them was getting closer and closer, and Gu Su gradually saw clearly that he was holding a wooden sword in his hand, which he had been using just now to defend against the armored soldiers!

At this moment of distraction, a armored soldier holding a long knife suddenly appeared behind Gu Su. He jumped up, and the sharp blade reflected the moonlight to form a snow line. On the person of the senior brother.

His face was condensed, his eyes were sharp only on his ashen face, his speed was getting faster and faster, his lips were pursed into a line, he suddenly jumped a few steps away, and slashed obliquely with the wooden sword held high.Gu Su closed his eyes and turned sideways to avoid it, his heart was cold.

The sound of metal falling suddenly sounded, and the armored soldier was hit by the wooden sword and dissipated on the spot, but just escaped.

Gu Su slowly opened his eyes, the man stood very close at some point, and the two of them were almost within walking distance.

He looked at Gu Su expressionlessly, and suddenly a smile melted on the corner of his mouth: "Xiao Su, eat candy."

There is a toffee in his open palm. The wrapper of the candy is yellowed, but it looks very well preserved on the surface.Gu Su's legs softened, as if he was about to kneel down, and before he knew it, tears were already falling down.

"Senior Brother...Senior Brother!"

He must be a senior brother!It must be!Gu Su kept repeating in his heart, rushed over and hugged Di Chie, but the panic in his heart didn't seem to settle down at all.He still hasn't found the sense of steadfastness of his senior brother, obviously he is here, and he is the senior brother who held him in his arms back then...

But why didn't the senior brother hug him back?

Gu Yinhan sat on the ground panting, glanced over there, and snorted coldly.He knew that these things had nothing to do with Gu Su. The senior brother he was talking about was the murderer who killed the snake demon. He not only killed him, but also took away his snake gall. It was indeed too cruel.

"Gu Su, I'm sorry to disturb your senior brother's reunion, but I think your senior brother needs to go with me." Gu Yinhan stood up and said in a deep voice.

Gu Su let go of his hand and looked at Di Chie's face, but he didn't react at all, except for that smile and that sentence just now, he had no other reaction.

He calmed down, supported Di Xie's shoulders, and said softly: "Senior brother, can you hear me?"

Di Xie glanced at him and smiled slightly: "Xiao Su."

His heart sank to the bottom of the valley in an instant, as if he was in a cold cellar, even the blood that flowed was cold, dripping into his limbs, numb from the cold.

This is by no means a normal human reaction.

Gu Su's hand seemed to be glued to his body, and he couldn't take it back, and his stiff arm couldn't be bent. He wanted to force himself to let go, but his body didn't move. Just straightened the corners of his mouth.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Gu Yinhan reached out to put his hand on Di Chie's shoulder, but Gu Su swung it away vigorously.He looked at Gu Su in surprise, Gu Su was also shocked by his own reaction, his eyes finally moved away from Di Chie, and the blood in his body gradually warmed up.

He can't do this, the senior brother only has him, if he loses his mind... he has no one else to rely on, who else can the senior brother rely on?

"You said, my senior brother wants to take a walk with you, why?"

Gu Su spoke very slowly. Seeing him like this, Gu Yinhan found it difficult to speak out, so he just said vaguely: "He is related to a murder case, I have to investigate."

"Murder case?"

Gu Yinhan said: "Yes, a snake demon died here about two or three weeks ago, and the snake gall was taken away. I saw the snake gall in his hand during the night patrol today, and I was going to take him back to investigate the case. I didn't expect to meet those ghosts. soldier."

Gu Yinhan took out something from a cloth bag. The snake gall was dark green in color, with different shades. The light part radiated a glint of light, and it looked exquisite and translucent under the moonlight.

"If he did it," Gu Su said suddenly, "what do you want?"

Gu Yinhan said: "I'm not right about people."

Gu Su said, "I'll help my relatives but not me."

As soon as the hatchback was spoken, the atmosphere immediately became tense. Gu Yinhan's face changed, but he still said calmly: "The truth hasn't come to light yet, what are you taking care of?"

The body of the snake demon was temporarily stored there, and the body would not be moved until the case was concluded or his friend voluntarily gave up the pursuit.The Appraisal Division has unique verification secrets for this kind of case. Judging from the technique and the origin of Taoism, it was indeed Di Chi who did it, and even the weapon was the small wooden sword in his hand.

But he really took the person to the Appraisal Department to confirm the result. Gu Yinhan's head was so big. Gu Su's attitude was already very clear. See, have to be concerned.

There are quite a few night shift workers in the department. Gu Yinhan greeted him from time to time, maintaining a high aloofness, but his heart was already fried: he is staying up late and getting angry, don't be so young!

Gu Su took Di Xie to sit on the bench outside, booing and asking for warmth from time to time, even if Di Xie only responded when he called his senior brother, he would not stop.

Di Xie was wearing a set of very old and dirty overalls, which were a bit short for him, but very roomy.His face was also dirty, and he looked like he had just finished work and came down from the construction site.Gu Su felt distressed and regretted not finding him sooner, so he got up and went to someone to borrow some tissues, wiped his face and then his hands when it got wet.

Gu Su stared at his hands for a long time, his slender fingers had everything, and there was no shortage.

I didn't realize that my brother was Liuzhi before, and that black box in the Tenth Hall...

Suddenly Gu Su heard a "buzzing" sound coming from Di Chai. Seeing that Di Chai hadn't responded, Gu Su stretched out his hand to take it from his pocket.

The voice was from an elderly mobile phone, which was set to vibrate mode, and there were a dozen missed calls on the screen.I don't know how long the phone vibrated, until Di Xie sat on the chair and the vibrating phone touched the chair surface, and then it made a sound.

Gu Su hesitated for a moment, but still connected the phone. A loud voice came out from the other end of the phone immediately: "Hello? Hello? Foreman? Why did you answer the phone? We lost something at the construction site!"

"Hi, I'm not a foreman. This mobile phone is in the pocket of a friend of mine. Are you..." Gu Su glanced at the clothes on Di Jie, "Are you the Baolong construction team?"

"In your friend's pocket?" shouted loudly, "Are you all thieves beautifying yourself like this now?"

"...We are not thieves. When I found my friend, he was wearing your overalls, and this mobile phone was also in that pocket." Gu Su patiently explained.

Although the senior brother didn't seem to be doing well, his whole body was in good shape, and he didn't look like he was imprisoned.Since the clue can be found, Gu Su will try to find it. If the other party is the person who helped Di Xie, then he is also Gu Su's benefactor.

There was silence on the side of the loud voice for several seconds, as if realizing who he was talking about, a louder voice suddenly burst out: "Fuck! Are you a pervert again? Your friend? Can he be your friend? You Don't bully people just because he's not smart enough! You fucking... you fucking wait for me, where are you? I'll bring someone to kill you right now!"

After he said that, the whole person panicked, but Gu Su's anger was ignited by the meaning of his words. He wanted to ask what it meant, but at this time the phone flickered, and the battery was turned off.

Di Xie sat on the bench with his head lowered quietly. Compared with the handsome young man in his memory, his wiped face was much more mature.Because of this posture, he looks harmless. His hair seems to have been cut recently, and it is very short, revealing a section of the back of his fair neck.

Gu Su had a violent thought, no matter who it is, he must die, he must die!

The door of the Appraisal Section was pushed open abruptly, Gu Yinhan was startled, and almost smashed his mobile phone to report his family's safety to the ground.Gu Su apologized, and asked, "Is the Baolong construction team working on the construction site opposite the city gate building?"

Gu Yinhan thought about it for a while, nodded and said: "Yes, but I have never been in the construction site over there, and the control is stricter."

Gu Su turned around and led Di Chi to leave, but Gu Yinhan followed him out without stopping him, and just asked, "Where are you taking him?"

"Go to the construction site." There was an unconscious hostility in his brows and eyes.

"Then...be careful." As soon as Gu Yinhan spoke, he felt that his tone seemed too soft, which was not his style, so he added with a cold face, "Those ghost soldiers haven't been caught for a day. Everyone be careful."

The construction site does not work all night, and it will stop at about four o'clock in the morning. Normally, nighttime construction should be ten o'clock in the evening, and government approval is required for more than ten o'clock.Now that the work stoppage was approaching, Gu Su was in a hurry to find someone, so he used the technique of shrinking the ground to an inch, but when he arrived, he felt that there was no need to bother looking for someone.

The workers, holding hoes, picks, sledgehammers, and shovels, gathered at the door as if they were going out to fight.The leader, a strong black man, waved his hammer excitedly: "Ale is our brother! Let's look for it together tonight, if you can't find it, you don't have to sleep tonight!"

A worker raised his hand: "Well, Brother Guo..."

Brother Guo yelled: "What are you doing? If you don't want to find someone, don't do your job!"

The worker withdrew his hand and said aggrievedly, "No, I mean..."

Brother Guo waved his hand: "Shut up if you don't, hurry up, let me tell you, Ah Le was touched by a finger... I will die with the person who moved him!"

"But, Ah Le is right behind you!" The worker panicked, pointing at him with trembling fingers like a 90-year-old old man suffering from Parkinson's.

Brother Guo was taken aback, and when he turned around, he saw Gu Su holding Di Xie, standing ten meters away, as if he was frightened by the battle, and remained motionless.

"What's the matter? What's the matter?" A short, fat, middle-aged man jumped out from the end of the fence, the buttons were crookedly buttoned, and the belt was not fastened.He was pulling on a pair of worn-out leather shoes, and he didn't even brush his hair twice, it was propped up indiscriminately.

Brother Guo was stunned for a moment, and said, "Ah, Bao, the contractor, Ah Le is lost."

"Ale?" The contractor looked at Di Que not far away, his face full of confusion.

Brother Guo shook his head: "No, no, something was lost on the construction site!"

"I lost it and looked for it! Check the surveillance and find out the grandson who stole it!" The contractor was so angry that he woke him up from his sleep just because of this?

Brother Guo showed embarrassment: "I'm afraid this can't be checked, and the camera has been taken away along the way."

The contractor fell on his back in anger, but he quickly changed his face, and shouted at Gu Su: "What are you doing with your hand? You two young men, are you so reasonable? Who are you?"

Brother Guo seemed to have realized what had happened before, and he said with an oh: "Ale was lost earlier, I guess he answered your call, I thought he was a pervert, but I didn't expect him to be a good person. Le sent back!"

The contractor's expression changed immediately, and he was full of gratitude. He rushed a few steps to Gu Su, and knelt down to Gu Su unexpectedly: "Grandpa!"

"..." What kind of thing is being knelt down by benefactor without thanking benefactor?

Gu Su also subconsciously lowered his knees, and they almost knelt on each other, but the remaining rationality forcibly stopped the downward trend. He quickly grabbed the arms of the contractor and helped him up, "You What are you doing, get up."

The contractor held his arm instead: "You don't know, Ah Le is my benefactor, and you will be my benefactor if you send him back."

"..." Gu Su found that his lines seemed to be finished by the contractor.He decided to change the subject to calm down the contractor: "What's your last name?"

The contractor looked at Di Xie with a fatherly smile on his face: "My surname is Bao."

"...Hi, contractor." Gu Su, "The Ale you are talking about, his real name is Di Chi, and I am his younger brother. My name is Gu Su."

The contractor felt that he didn't understand, so he asked suspiciously: "What?"

Gu Su's face was serious, and he knelt straight in front of the contractor. This kneeling was extremely solemn: "Senior brother disappeared 12 years ago and has never been heard from. I have a teacher's order and I am not allowed to leave without permission. I have been hungry and cold for 12 years... Now I have found my seniors, and I have seen everyone’s concern and tolerance for them. I can’t repay you. Foreman, you are our real benefactor. As long as you have any needs, I will do my best to fulfill them. If you go through fire and water, you will definitely not refuse."

The contractor took a step back with panic on his face. When he came back to his senses, he stretched out his hand to pull him up, but found that he couldn't pull him up at all: "Little brother, you don't look fat, why are you so dead!"

Gu Su couldn't kneel for a long time, so he stood up.As the saying goes, it is not unreasonable to only kneel to the king, relatives and teachers of the world. Everyone has their own destiny and luck, and not everyone can afford to be kneeled by others.But the contractor is so kind and virtuous that he deserves this kneeling.

The contractor didn't completely believe it. Although it was true that he picked up Ale 12 years ago, it was impossible for him to foolishly hand Ale into the hands of this person with just such a sentence.

At that time, Ale fell beside the national highway, and the contractor led the construction team to go thousands of miles to work for a boss. When passing by the national highway, he saw a person falling down on the side of the road, so he rescued him and got into the car, surrounded by a car of people. It looks strange.

He doesn't look very old, maybe he's still underage, and he looks good-looking, which is recognized by all the rough men in the construction team.

When he arrived at the hospital, after the doctor's examination, he was seriously injured. He was probably beaten, and he didn't know what kind of vicious person he offended, so he treated a child like this!After he woke up, the contractor found that he seemed to have a brain problem. He didn't respond to people at all, and he didn't show any expression. .

Within two days, the boss called to urge him, and the contractor quickly agreed to rush there as soon as possible. The contractor originally wanted to hurry to send him to the rescue station, but when he saw him sitting on the hospital bed with a dementia, the contractor was heartbroken. Soft, still decided to take this poor man.

Because the child always bowed his head expressionlessly, and looked infinitely sad and depressed, the co-workers decided to call him A Le, hoping that he would be happier.

He never expected that the boss invited such a small construction team all the way to repair the house, and there was something else behind him!

The price was negotiated on the phone before, the boss was straightforward, and the contractor also thought he was a good person, so he started working when the day arrived. The boss and his family lived elsewhere, and there were only a few houses far away, and those people seemed to be hiding. them.Monk Zhang Er, the contractor, couldn't figure it out, but at night, he completely understood.

The house is really an old house, each room is dilapidated, and there are mosquitoes hiding in it. It is hot summer, and the brothers decided to make a bunk in the hall, which is breathable and can take care of each other. The contractor Sleeping on the outermost side, A Le sleeps on the innermost side.

When everyone fell asleep, the snoring sounded one after another, and the contractor got up to pee at night. I don’t know what happened. He walked all the way and counted people. He counted the thinnest Ale on the far side, and there were sixteen in total. , plus himself, is seventeen.That's right, the construction team has a total of seventeen people.

He came back in the dark after going to the toilet, and counted again as usual, seventeen, that's right.After the contractor lay down in a daze, he was about to continue to sleep, but he opened his eyes quickly, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.

There were seventeen lying on the ground, so what about adding him...

The contractor kicked Guo Ge who was sleeping next to him: "Wake up!"

"What's wrong?" Brother Guo's sleepy voice came over, he turned his back to the contractor and moved a little to express his protest.

"Come and count the people!" The contractor whispered, afraid of disturbing anything.

"What else is this?" Brother Guo murmured, "Isn't it only seventeen... Go to sleep, why are there so many things at night..."

The contractor kicked him again, but he didn't say anything. He closed his eyes and forced himself to fall asleep. It seemed that as long as it was an illusion, it would pass.

He had a nightmare all night. He dreamed that someone was chopping meat in the kitchen. He didn't know what kind of meat it was, but he was sure that the meat hadn't been processed properly, and the blood hadn't been drained. The blood splattered all over the kitchen.The big knife was chopped on the chopping board, the sound came one after another, it was very clear in the dream, as if it was ringing in the ear...

As soon as this metaphor appeared in the head contractor's mind, he felt more and more that the description was correct.He suddenly opened his eyes, and chopped off with a kitchen knife close to the tip of his nose. Blood was stained, and the minced meat splashed on his face, which seemed to be still warm.He couldn't feel his body, he had no limbs, he couldn't feel the rise and fall of his chest when he breathed...

All he had left was a head on the chopping block, he was dead... With this thought, his breathing also became difficult, he tried his best to breathe with his head up, but dead people can't breathe, he can't breathe... this This feeling is too real, not like dying, but more like the imagination of a dead person.

"Snapped!"

"Ouch! Who hit me? Who?"

The voice of a worker in the team rang out, and the head contractor instantly felt his fresh lungs, which were still functioning dutifully, but the pain in his chest was even more difficult to ignore.

The contractor opened his eyes and saw Ale squatting in front of his head, looking down at him. The contractor knew that the slap that woke him up just now must have come from him.The head contractor lifted off the burden that his fellow workers still placed on him, sat up and cursed: "Sleep next to me when you sleep so dishonestly at night? Sun Guo, didn't you fucking sleep next to me?"

Brother Guo, who was brushing his teeth, put his head in with an innocent face: "What are you talking about, I've been sleeping in the middle."

The contractor felt that his temples were beating at the same frequency as his heart, and his brain was a little swollen. He asked hesitantly, "What did you say?"

"I said, I slept in the middle, and so many people testified to me." Brother Guo waved his toothbrush, and the workers around him all looked at the contractor, as if they were looking at something very strange.

The contractor was a little at a loss, and his eyes turned to Ale, who was squatting there, maintaining a posture of looking at the ground.He reacted quickly again, Ah Le is a somewhat special child, how could he react.The contractor withdrew his expression in disappointment, intending to let this matter pass by.

However, Ah Le suddenly stretched out his finger and rubbed it on his face.

"Look."

This is Ale's first speech!But the thing on his finger overwhelmed the excitement of hearing him speak for the first time, and the contractor's face paled with fright.

There was a little red liquid on his fingertips.
