When Chen Xuyang woke up again, he was already lying back on his bed. He opened his eyes, and even thought he was having an absurd nightmare, but when he sat up from the bed and saw his messy living room, he realized that it was not a dream, it really happened.
On the floor and walls of his house, there was blood everywhere, as well as the leftover pieces of meat that had been eaten. The strong smell of blood in the air made it feel like a hellish scene. When Chen Xuyang saw these pictures, he almost didn't go over it again. At least he used his last self-control to stabilize his mind, and tremblingly took out his mobile phone and called the police.
Hu Shu was a little surprised when he received a call from Chen Xuyang, saying that you just said that your jars were all right, why did you change your tune after half an hour.
"How do I know." Chen Xuyang wanted to cry, "Help, comrade police, my home now looks like a murder scene..."
Hu Shu was very helpless, and while comforting Chen Xuyang, he commanded: "Then you should come out of your house first, wait downstairs, we will come right away."
Chen Xuyang nodded hurriedly.
To leave the bedroom, you need to pass through the living room. The originally short walk is like a moat at this time. Chen Xuyang did a lot of mental construction for himself, and after repeatedly confirming that the thing he saw before fainting in the living room was gone, he took a cautious step and wanted to leave the house.
But who knew that when he walked to the center of the living room, he found that the minced meat and bones in his living room seemed to form a pattern. Chen Xuyang's first reaction when he saw the pattern was the magic circle summoned by the evil god, and he quickly rolled and climbed. He rushed out of the house and closed the door behind him.
It was already very hot this June, but Chen Xuyang was still cold all over. He waited downstairs for a long time before he got to Hu Shu and Pang Ziqi. When he saw them, his expression was as if he had seen a savior: "The police Comrades, you can count—"
Hu Shu said, "What's going on?"
Chen Xuyang quickly described the situation of his home, saying that there was blood everywhere on the floor and walls, and the center of the living room was made of meat and bones to form a magic circle. When he saw the person who created all this, his mind was weird, he must have thought To kill him, he is definitely not a good person. He said it in a good way, and he made an oath, so that people who listened to it also felt inexplicably chills on their backs.
Fortunately, Pang Ziqi was still calm and said, "Let's go up and have a look first."
So the three of them took the elevator and went back. Although Chen Xuyang was very scared and reluctant to go back, he would go home sooner or later...
Using the key to open the door, Hu Shu also saw the situation in the room. Similar to what Chen Xuyang described, the house was almost in a mess, and other things were not affected much, except that there were traces of blood everywhere. As soon as he turned his head, he saw the evil god pattern in Chen Xuyang's mouth.
"Go in and have a look." In order to prevent accidents, Pang Ziqi took out a gun.
Hu Shu nodded, his expression also solemn.
The two stepped into the house carefully, one after the other, and first checked each room to make sure that no one else existed in the house. As Chen Xuyang said, the jar was still obediently in the storage room. Hu Shu took the jar out and put it on the table in the living room for Pang Ziqi to stare at to avoid any accidents.
"What the hell is going on with this jar?" Chen Xuyang trembled, "Officer Hu, didn't you say it's a good jar?"
Hu Shu looked at Chen Xuyang meaningfully: "Yes, aren't you still alive?"
Chen Xuyang: "..."
Hu Shu said: "If this is a bad jar, I think it's your neighbor who will call the police instead of you."
Chen Xuyang was speechless.
Pang Ziqi put his eyes on the evil god pattern in the living room and carefully observed it, but the more he looked, the more strange his expression became, which made Hu Shu couldn't help asking: "Pang Ziqi, what do you see?"
Pang Ziqi turned her head and glanced at Chen Xuyang: "Is your birthday in June?"
Chen Xuyang said nervously: "Yes... Does this have anything to do with the birth date?"
Pang Ziqi said, "Twenty-sixth birthday?"
Chen Xuyang nodded hurriedly: "Officer Pang, what are you asking about this? Could it be that there is something special about my birthday that I was chosen as a sacrifice?"
Pang Ziqi: "... Watch less horror movies."
Chen Xuyang: "What's going on?"
Pang Ziqi pointed to the so-called evil god pattern and motioned Chen Xuyang to see it for himself. Chen Xuyang was terribly frightened at first, but driven by Pang Ziqi's tough eyes, he looked at the evil god pattern tremblingly, but after looking at it for about ten seconds, Chen Xuyang's expression became the same as Pang Ziqi's: "This... this … How?"
Hu Shu sighed and patted Chen Xuyang's shoulder: "I'll just say your house is a good jar..."
I saw that the so-called evil god pattern was not a totem at all, but a few words made of flesh and bones - Chen Xuyang, happy twenty-sixth birthday.
Although the spelling is very rough and the picture is bloody, it is indeed just these few words, and it seems that these words are not easy to complete, and Hu Shu shed a tear of moved: "Look, people It's your birthday."
Chen Xuyang looked at the font, his chest felt a pain and he didn't know what to say again.
Pang Ziqi walked to the middle of the pattern and picked up a few pieces of minced meat and bones. After a simple inspection, it was determined that they were not human bones, but those of birds or other animals, because these bones were very slender and did not exist in the human skeleton at all.
"So it doesn't matter." Hu Shu comforted Chen Xuyang, "I guess they have worked hard for a long time."
Chen Xuyang: "..." His consciousness was a little fuzzy.
Hu Shu said: "Otherwise, you can stick to it for two more days and see. If it really doesn't work, I'll call someone to help and dispose of the jar."
Chen Xuyang whispered: "How to deal with it?"
Hu Shu said, "It's broken, what else can I do?"
When Chen Xuyang heard that he was going to smash the jar, his expression became complicated again. He could do it by himself, but the problem was that he had already smashed it if he wanted to smash it. Isn't it reluctant to delay it until now? And it seems that this thing really doesn't mean anything to him, just smashing it like this, it seems a bit unreasonable.
"Okay, I'll take a look." Chen Xuyang could only say so.
Pang Ziqi said: "This thing is human, you can try to communicate with him, in case it is taught."
Chen Xuyang: "... Okay."
After the police call was over, Hu Shu and Pang Ziqi left, leaving Chen Xuyang to clean up at home alone, looking at the jar with a complicated look. Fortunately, he bought the house to live alone, otherwise the landlord or roommate would have to be scared to move out if they saw the bloody handprints in the house.
After Chen Xuyang cleaned up, he touched the smooth surface of the jar again, and decided to have a good talk with the jar, although he didn't know if the jar could understand...
Lu Qingjiu didn't know what happened to Hu Shu. After he ate a mutton skewer that day, he was obsessed with the taste of the stall, and he also tried to mix the seasonings himself, but he always felt that there were a few spices missing. So I thought to try it again. Bai Yuehu and Yin Xun both agreed with Lu Qingjiu's proposal, but before they could set a time, Hu Shu called Lu Qingjiu again, saying that someone wanted to invite them to dinner.
"Someone invited us to dinner?" Lu Qingjiu was curious, "Who is it?"
Hu Shu vaguely said that you will know when you come.
Lu Qingjiu rolled his eyes and immediately understood: "Is there something else that can't be solved?"
Hu Shu said: "Well... Forget it?"
In Lu Qingjiu's words: "Could it be that the jar was not resolved that day?"
Hu Shu sighed and said that it was not that there was no solution, but that the solution was a bit subtle, which caused the reporter to always call the police.
"Always call the police? Why do you still call the police when everything is resolved?" Lu Qingjiu didn't understand.
Hu Shu was extremely helpless: "It's not that although no one was killed, every time you open the door, you can see broken bones and meat all over the place. Normal people will feel scared when they see it."
Lu Qingjiu said in surprise, "Then why didn't he throw the jar away?" It stands to reason that even if it is a family heirloom, such a thing has happened, and the people who still keep the jar at home are very popular.
Hu Shu grimaced: "That's where the problem lies."
Lu Qingjiu: "What do you mean?"
Hu Shu said: "Those broken bones and meat are all spelled in Chinese characters. Why are you working hard today, why pay attention to rest, and remember to go to bed early..."
Lu Qingjiu was drinking water at first, but when he heard this, he almost spit out a mouthful. After a while, he came back, coughing and said, "I heard it right, it's spelling these words with minced meat and bones?"
Hu Shu said helplessly: "That's right, the most exciting thing is that one day the person who reported the crime went home and saw a big peach heart printed on the ceiling by a bloody handprint..."
Lu Qingjiu covered his face and wanted to laugh, but he felt a little gloating, but to be honest, it was really funny.
"Then we found out that we couldn't communicate with the jar." Hu Shu said, "Although it can sense our emotions, it's emotions, and it seems that there is no way to understand the literal meaning." He said with a tone. Feeling helpless, "So I just wanted to ask, Brother Lu, can you help me and talk to the jar, so that he can stop expressing his concern for the homeowner in such an exciting way."
Lu Qingjiu laughed out loud, and he said, "I'll ask, I can't guarantee it will work."
"Okay, if possible, let's have a meal tomorrow night." Hu Shu said, "What do you want to eat?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "Just the mutton skewers that day. It's delicious. The two of us have been talking about it for the past few days."
Hu Shu said yes.
After that, Lu Qingjiu told Bai Yuehu about this, and Bai Yuehu agreed easily. Communicating with the jars took no effort for him, let alone a delicious lamb kebab.
This mutton skewer has a few special ingredients, which can be regarded as the boss's secret recipe. I can't get this taste out by myself, and I feel that something is wrong. Lu Qingjiu thought about going to eat two more times to see if he could taste anything.
On another hot night, Lu Qingjiu drove Yin Xun and Bai Yuehu to the barbecue stall in a small truck.
After Lu Qingjiu parked the car, he saw Hu Shu talking to a frowning young man. He walked to the side, and Hu Shu hurriedly introduced the identities of several people.
Lu Qingjiu also knew that the name of the reporter was Chen Xuyang.
To be honest, the three of Lu Qingjiu standing together are really quite conspicuous. The three of them are not bad-looking, but their personal styles are very different. Although Bai Yuehu is handsome and has no wife, he has no expression on his face. Yin Xun still looked like a young man, grinning in amusement, revealing a cute tiger tooth. Lu Qingjiu looks handsome and has a gentle expression. Almost everyone who wants to talk to him will start with him involuntarily. The only thing the three of them have in common is that the first action after sitting down is to show a longing expression towards the kebab stove - it seems that they are indeed hungry.
Chen Xuyang hurriedly explained that the mutton skewers he ordered had already been grilled, and it was estimated that they would be served in a while.
Only then did Lu Qingjiu look back and said, "I already know about you, did you bring that jar?"
"Bring it and bring it." Chen Xuyang said hurriedly.
He said, got up and went to the bicycle next to him and took off a package. Inside the package were the two jars that Lu Qingjiu had seen before.
"I didn't know where it was hiding, so I brought it all." Chen Xuyang explained.
Lu Qingjiu said, "What do you want to say to it?"
Chen Xuyang said: "I just want it to stop sending me those things."
Lu Qingjiu said, "For example?"
Chen Xuyang: "For example, it's made of minced meat to rest early..." God fucking rest early, he can sleep looking at the meat in this place, it hurts him to spend an hour cleaning every day, every day at home. He threw several large packages of minced meat, making the neighbors look at him wrong. This is not the worst. The worst is when a takeaway delivery person came to his door. When he delivered the takeaway through the crack of the door, he saw bloody handprints on the walls and floor of his house. The elder brother's face was pale, he turned around and ran, running like a rabbit being chased by a dog, but he didn't catch up.
Then two hours later, he received a call from Hu Shu, asking him to pay attention to the influence, if it really scare people, it would be bad...
Lu Qingjiu nodded and handed the jar to Bai Yuehu.
Bai Yuehu reached out and took it, his fingers tapped on the jar, and a series of strange sounds came out of his mouth, as if speaking a special language. Lu Qingjiu had definitely never heard of this language, but the amazing thing was that he actually understood the meaning of Bai Yuehu's words, and he didn't know if it was because of the one-fourth of the dragon blood in his body.
Bai Yuehu relayed Chen Xuyang's request to the jar, and the jar also responded after listening. The sound of this response was very low, and Lu Qingjiu could hear it vaguely, and finally he just put his ear to the jar to hear it clearly.
Several other people waited nervously beside them, but looking at their expressions, they didn't seem to hear the sound from the jar.
Lu Qingjiu listened for a while, and his expression became more and more strange. He glanced at Chen Xuyang and then at the jar.
Chen Xuyang's scalp was numb when he saw Lu Qingjiu's eyes, and he almost blurted out a question, Doctor, can I be saved.
Bai Yuehu calmed down a lot. He repeated Chen Xuyang's request to the jar, and made a series of regulations on the jar's behavior, and made it promise that he would never use this method to express his concern again.
Lu Qingjiu almost understood what was going on. He straightened up and asked Chen Xuyang, "Did you sell your old house last month?"
Chen Xuyang snorted in a daze: "Why did you suddenly ask this...you..." He immediately reacted, looking at the jar and then at Lu Qingjiu, "What did it tell you?!"
Lu Qingjiu said, "Yes."
Chen Xuyang sighed, his expression a little sad, and explained that his father had been ill before and had been borrowing money for treatment. All the things that should be sold at home were almost sold, leaving the old house and the apartment where he lives now, but the apartment was sold. There was no way to pay off the debt, so I had to sell the old house...
Lu Qingjiu said, "It doesn't mean anything to you, it's just worried about you."
Chen Xuyang nodded, indicating that he knew.
"Your salary is low, so you eat instant noodles every night." Lu Qingjiu succinctly relayed the words of the jar, "It is afraid that you will eat too much instant noodles and it will not be nutritious, so it wants to give you extra meals."
Chen Xuyang: "..."
"The meat is all bird meat, and it tastes very good." Lu Qingjiu said this with a smile in his voice, "It can be eaten." The habit of this jar is somewhat similar to that of a cat, and he is afraid that the owner will starve to death. I worked hard to bring some gadgets home and put them in front of the owner, trying to feed the clumsy big cat that won't prey in my eyes.
"Ah! I know, but it's not edible." Chen Xuyang said quickly, "Don't give it to me..."
"Yeah." Lu Qingjiu nodded, "I told it, it shouldn't bring those things back in the future."
While Chen Xuyang breathed a sigh of relief, he also felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart. Although the way this jar cared about people was not right, he could still feel its good intentions.
"And..." Lu Qingjiu said, "it asked if you needed any other help."
"Help?" Chen Xuyang was interested, he said, "Can it fulfill my three wishes or something?"
Lu Qingjiu: "...If your three wishes are to eat meat."
Chen Xuyang: "..." That's fine.
"However, is there any way for me to understand what it said?" Chen Xuyang asked, "Otherwise we can't communicate."
After Bai Yuehu finished translating, he quietly ate his mutton kebab beside him. Hearing Chen Xuyang's question, he said lightly: "It's okay, but it's more troublesome."
Chen Xuyang is still full of interest: "How to do it?"
Bai Yuehu said: "You can offer it as a family god."
The family god is a kind of god in the Chinese folk, said to protect the family members. After offering sacrifices to the family gods, the family gods become part of the whole family. Every festival or ancestor worship, they need to offer a sacrifice to the family gods. Bai Yuehu said that this jar might have a hint of a family god, but Chen Xuyang's clansmen did not continue to worship it, so the divinity in his body gradually faded and degenerated into a monster.
Chen Xuyang listened very carefully. It was the first time he came into contact with these things. After listening to Bai Yuehu's description, he immediately remembered that his parents once mentioned about the jar, and said that his ancestors did sacrifice this. Jars, it was only later that the times changed, and this kind of sacrifice was banned. The jars were also put into the storage room as cultural relics. Later, their family fell into trouble, and they did not have the heart to sell the jars.
The jar had been quiet before, until Chen Xuyang sold the old house, it appeared strange.
Now, after the communication between Lu Qingjiu and Bai Yuehu, Chen Xuyang learned that the jar had been in a state of deep sleep, and was woken up later because the old house of the Chen family changed its owner. After waking up, he was shocked to find that Chen Xuyang was the only one left in the Chen family, and the place where he lived and the food were very cheap.
It's just that this way of caring makes Chen Xuyang a little unacceptable...
"Then its real body looks like a human?" Chen Xuyang remembered the monster with long hair and shawl he saw. To be honest, I haven't seen clearly what the monster looks like. I only remember the pair of green eyes and the fine details. of teeth.
"Real body?" Lu Qingjiu said, "It didn't say that."
Chen Xuyang said: "Okay, I see."
Even if this matter is resolved like this, both parties have reached a consensus. The jar promised not to bring back strange things to Chen Xuyang, while Chen Xuyang promised not to throw him away and work hard to redeem the old house as soon as possible. Of course, in order to understand the words of the jar earlier, Chen Xuyang decided to continue enshrining it after he went back. After all, Bai Yuehu said that if he ate enough incense candles, then he and the jar would be able to communicate.
After disposing of the jar, everyone happily ate the mutton kebabs. Hu Shu and Pang Ziqi breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that they would finally have to stop.
Everyone was full, and they all dispersed. Lu Qingjiu returned home with Yin Xun and Bai Yuehu, who were full of belly. After parking the car, the three walked around the village for a while before going to sleep. It's getting dark and late, and you can see villagers walking everywhere, but since knowing that there are no living people in the village, Lu Qingjiu's mood is a bit complicated. The back is a little cold.
Bai Yuehu's wound is slowly healing, but the healing speed is very slow, and it seems that the injury is still serious. There is no news about Ao Run recently. It seems that the snow has taken everything away.
The days were peaceful but not dull, Lu Qingjiu rubbed against Bai Yuehu's chin, the two fell asleep hugging each other, and fell into a deep sleep.
The day after eating the barbecue, when Chen Xuyang returned home, he didn't see the meat in that place again, but saw a bowl of steaming instant noodles on the table.
On the sticky note that was left on the table last night, Long Feifeng wrote three beautiful Chinese characters: Go to bed early.
Chen Xuyang looked at the post-it note and couldn't help laughing. He got up, took the jar from the sofa in the living room, put it next to the instant noodles, and said with a smile, "Come, eat instant noodles with me."
The jar shook slightly. Although he didn't know what it meant, Chen Xuyang still stretched out his hand, scratching the jar as if scratching the chin of a puppy.
The jar happily spun around the table twice, almost not throwing itself to the ground.
"Everything will be alright." Chen Xuyang picked up the chopsticks and put them in the instant noodles, "Come on, Chen Xuyang!"
come on! ! The jar screamed silently beside him.
The author has something to say: Bai Yuehu used his tail to compare a word.
Lu Qingjiu read: Don't... stop...
Bai Yuehu: You said.
Lu Qingjiu: ? ? ?
