August 6th, Friday, 6:45pm.
After the ceremony was over, the Taoist priests invited by the Cai and Su family left with their little apprentice, and the relatives and neighbors who came to help also said goodbye one by one. Bring them dinner at home.
"I'll go back to the store to check it out later."
Sister Su gently held her sister's hand and said in a tone like coaxing a child:
"Your brother-in-law will come over later, let him stay here with you tonight, okay?"
"No need, ma'am."
Su Lan wiped her tears and shook her head:
"My classmates will live here tonight to accompany us, so my brother-in-law doesn't need to come here."
Su Lan knew that her sister and brother-in-law were running a homestay in the resort area. The summer vacation was the peak tourist season. Everyone was staring at the two-month turnover, so they couldn't focus more on them. Bad thing.
"Sister, you have also worked hard these days... Come back to the store early to have a look."
Sister Su felt that her sister was right, and although she was still worried, she went out the door three times.
It was a huge three-story building, and soon only Cai, Su and his wife, Wei Fuyuan and Jiang Nan'an were left.
The house suddenly fell silent.
The sun slowly slanted west, and Cai Mingjian turned on all the lights to brighten the room.
The four of them ate dinner hastily in the living room, and the sky was completely dark.
When haunted, darkness is always scary.
Moreover, they live in a village at the foot of the mountain in the scenic area. After dark, it is not as brightly lit as a big city. Looking out through the living room window, they can only see dim street lights and sporadic lights on the main road.
If the anxiety during the day was barely bearable, then now, looking at the deadly darkness outside, Su Lan inevitably fell into deep anxiety again.
She bit her fingernails unconsciously, and she didn't feel pain even when the bites bleed.
After Cai Mingjian noticed his wife's unconscious actions, he hurriedly walked to her side, put him in his arms, and took him away from the window.
"That... Xiaowei..."
Cai Mingjian looked at Wei Fuyuan as if asking for help, "We...?"
He only said the first half of what he said, but anyone could hear that what he wanted to ask was whether "that thing" would appear tonight.
Although Wei Fuyuan is not a Taoist priest or a monk, as a capable person who is said to have yin and yang eyes and can "see" inhuman things, it is better to have him than not to have him, even if it is a psychological comfort. OK
Wei Fuyuan really gave the couple a psychological comfort.
"You have already invited the Taoist priest to do the ritual."
He pointed to the yellow talisman posted on the porch beam:
"Those evil things shouldn't get in, right?"
In fact, what Wei Fuyuan was worried about was exactly the opposite of the husband and wife. What he was afraid of was that the shadow would not appear.
If Wei Fuyuan hadn't used his heavenly eyes to determine that the Taoist priest they invited was a parallel importer, he would have to find a way to sneak out of the house and remove all the talismans attached to the windows and door beams. down.
After hearing Wei Fuyuan's comfort, Cai Mingjian smiled bitterly.
He wanted to say that he had already approached several groups of Taoist priests, monks, and even goddesses, but each time he was very disappointed with the results.
"It's fine if it just doesn't work..."
Cai Mingjian says:
"Before... every time I invited people to see it, it seemed to anger the shadow... and made the situation worse."
He didn't know that he had already said this to the two people in front of him in "Thriller Night Talk", and he still muttered to himself:
"The first time, Xiao Lan almost drowned in the bathtub that night; the second time, the screen door of the subway opened inexplicably, and if the passenger next to her had not stopped her quickly, she would have fallen onto the rails..."
As if recalling the past, Su Lan shivered with fright.
Cai Mingjian hugged his wife tightly in his arms:
"So, I'm worried about tonight..."
Seeing the pitiful appearance of the two, Jiang Nan'an fell in love again, jumped in front of the two, and said loudly:
"Don't worry, we'll be with us tonight... Ow!"
Wei Fuyuan pinched him hard behind his back.
Jiang Nan'an turned around and glared at Young Master Shang Wei, and suddenly he came back to his senses.
—Fuck it, that's right! How did I forget!
You must know that he is a pure yang body that has been trained since childhood, and he is a walking evil spirit. Although Wei Fuyuan has never learned any techniques before, he is very talented and brought it from his mother's womb. With the power of merit and virtue, ordinary evil things cannot get close.
Although I don't know what the "black shadow" really is, the two of them stayed here for a day today, and the things that usually appear have never appeared once. If they really follow Cai and Su tonight If the husband and wife are not separated from each other, then the thing is likely not to come.
- Of course not!
The two of them came to visit their old classmates, and it's okay to stay at someone's house for one night. There's no reason to live there every day!
Of course, this kind of thing should be solved as soon as possible, and it can't be consumed all the time!
Jiang Nan'an smiled awkwardly, and quickly changed his words:
"We live next door to you tonight, if anything happens, you can hear it as soon as you shout!"
Cai Mingjian didn't know what the two were thinking, and thought they were afraid, but he knew he couldn't, so he forced a wry smile, which was regarded as a response.
Although the couple Cai and Su were terribly frightened, they were always worried about when they would encounter evil revenge for inviting a mage to do what they did, but after nightfall they lived very peacefully. Any weird accident happens.
Silent all night.
At 10:30 in the evening, Wei Fuyuan and Jiang Nan'an said good night to the uneasy couple, and then avoided the next room.
Wei Fuyuan took out the bamboo tube Beiquan gave him from his backpack and released Guan Hu Suying.
"Go to the next room to stare, and notify us immediately if you find anything abnormal."
Wei Fuyuan finished his instructions to the little fox, and after thinking about it, he added awkwardly:
"sorry to bother you."
The snow-white little fox flicked its tail, nodded reservedly, slid past the wall, and disappeared without a shadow.
Wei Fuyuan took out his phone again and started texting Beiquan.
Beiquan's brick Nokia can't install WeChat or Button, but the SMS function is no problem.
However, Beiquan is a person who does not like to reply to information very much.
Wei Fuyuan has been bombarded with text messages at an average frequency of four per hour since he got on the high-speed rail, reporting the details of his situation one by one.
However, after a day of tossing, he only received three replies from Beiquan.
[understood.]
[here you go.]
[keep it up.]
—Tsk, what kind of indifference is this BOSS to the younger brother, I am your boyfriend!
Wei Fuyuan flipped through the messages sent out today, the more he looked at it, the more angry he became. His back molars creaked. He only hated that Beiquan was not in front of him, otherwise he would have to bite ten or eight teeth marks on him and let him Know who is the one who is in charge of it.
Of course, Master Wei also tried to call Beiquan, but unfortunately the number was dialed, and only a cold electronic female voice was heard:
[The number you dialed is not in the service area, please try again later.]
Wei Fuyuan didn't know where Beiquan went, and what kind of remoteness it had to be, so that even Hua Guoxian, who claimed to have a signal tower in the Chaklamakan Desert, was defeated.
However, since Beiquan was able to reply to his messages, it was probably just a coincidence that the signal was poor.
So Wei Fuyuan gritted his teeth and began to slap the words, and typed today's 101st report on the travels of elementary school chickens:
[I asked Suying to monitor, I hope that thing will appear soon. But today it hasn't been here for a day. I think it may be afraid of us, and its strength is estimated to be like that!]
The information was sent out, but it still seemed like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no response.
Wei Fuyuan waited for ten minutes, guessing that Beiquan would probably ignore him, so he could only climb into the bed and recharge his batteries.

At the same time, Beiquan, Qingzhu and Aliu were led into the mountain by two police officers to personally check the ravine where Wang Baotai's body was found.
The place where Wang Baotai's body was thrown is indeed very remote.
It is next to a branch line of the provincial road. It is said that usually only local small trucks transporting mountain goods will go here. Although it will not be in disrepair, the cement road has indeed begun to crack. Belt, it is easy to be turned upside down by twenty centimeters suddenly, and the head hits hard on the roof of the car.
Such a remote fork, naturally, there is no need to expect any perfect electronic monitoring.
The police who drove the car told the three Beiquan that they had obtained surveillance at the two closest locations to the accident site, and locked some suspicious vehicles. However, without more clues, it took a long time to investigate each vehicle, and it was very likely that there were mistakes and omissions. The real suspect.
"Well, you know, such a small place."
The policeman sighed:
"I don't have a few monitors installed, the clarity is the same, and the hard disk capacity is small. It's good to keep the records for three days."
Both Beiquan and Qingzhu nodded, indicating that they knew their difficulties.
Indeed, this is already a mountainous area in the northwest, and naturally it is impossible to have the advantage of high-definition surveillance everywhere in a big city.
What's more, since the case was notified to the "special seven", it proves that the "superior" judged that there may be inhuman factors that are difficult for ordinary people to deal with. If it is only investigated by ordinary criminal police, whether the murderer can be caught is another matter. First of all, the police or witnesses. security is a serious issue.
Now that the case has been handed over to "Special Seven", these people have not counted on conventional means such as surveillance, but plan to use their own methods to solve the case.
They set off at around 7 o'clock in the evening, the car bumped on the mountain road in the dark for nearly four hours, and finally reached their destination at 11 o'clock in the evening.
The policeman in charge of driving turned the flashlight to the brightest, moved forward, and said to Beiquan and the others:
"It should be here."
