Hit ghost

Chapter 49 The Hidden Child

"Innate energy...it's indeed possible." Gu Jiawei stroked his beard in agreement, "If you really covet the children's innate energy, then these children may be in danger."

He and Wen Liang are both people in the same way, and there is no obstacle in communication, but Xie Jin and Ji Duan at the side can only hear the mist, and the confused two can only look at each other, not knowing where the so-called danger comes from.

"Human's innate essence, that is, innate true energy, is the one energy before the creation of heaven and earth, and it is also the root of all things in the world." Li Nong stepped forward to refill tea for the two, and explained slowly with the sound of water, "This It is the innate unity theory of Taoist Alchemy."

"Then why is the old Taoist coveting the innate energy of the children, and the children will be in danger?" Xie Jin frowned slightly, and if life is in danger, it means there is a risk of death. Then the ghost boy they met before, could it be that they have already died? One of the murdered children?

Li Nong stood lightly and returned to Gu Jiawei's side. After standing still, he said: "People's innate energy will weaken after middle age. The real Shiqing just said that he saw that the person who abducted the child was a dying person, a dying person Coveting the spirit of children, I think there is a high probability that it is for the sake of life."

If the person seen by Wen Liang divination is really a crooked demon, he will grasp all the ways to survive when he is about to die, and the crazy act of exchanging his life for his life is definitely possible.

"Before... we met a ghost boy last night. It was cursed back then, and finally disappeared." Xie Jin's heart trembled. The more he listened to Li Nong's words, the more he felt that his guess was right. "Li Daochang, I want to know Is there any danger for a child who has been absorbed with innate energy?"

"This situation will vary from person to person, because it depends on the amount absorbed. If the worst case is considered, most people who have been absorbed inborn essence will die."

Li Nong lowered his eyebrows, and said the sentence of death in a fluttering manner, which echoed the sentence that the speaker had no intention of listening and the listener had the heart. After hearing this, Xie Jin fell silent.

"Although there is no clear evidence for yesterday's ghost boy, it is very likely that he is one of the missing children." Wen Liang interrupted the brief silence. He picked up the cold teacup next to his hand and drank the remaining tea in it. .

"Time is running out. Since there is no news about that evil way in Bailongguan, let's go look elsewhere." Putting down his teacup, Wen Liang winked at Xie Jin and Ji Duan, "As far as we know, there are two children who are currently missing. , the most important thing now is to find them."

He said polite words, stood up and brushed the non-existent dust on the robe, Gu Jiawei didn't hold back when he heard him say that, he just said some wishes, and hoped that those children could go home as soon as possible.

Out of politeness, Gu Jiawei asked Li Nong to send it off, but Wen Liang waved his hand and said no, Bailong watched him before, so there was no need to let the fellow Taoist go there again, leaving a word to say goodbye, and strode out of the room.

Gu Jiawei watched the figures of the three people get farther and farther in the yard, and finally disappeared at the corner of the courtyard wall, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, "Small farmers."

He shouted, Li Nong immediately lowered his head to look at him, Gu Jiawei was still looking at the wall, and muttered meaningfully, "That person hasn't seen him for a long time, and he still looks the same."

Li Nong didn't understand what this sentence meant, frowned slightly, and asked softly: "Master, this disciple is ignorant and doesn't understand what it means."

"It's fine if you don't understand." A smile appeared on Gu Jiawei's face as dry as withered old bark. Before getting up, he said lightly, "When our generation is gone, no one will know the secret of that person." gone."

After Wen Liang brought Xie Jin and Ji Duan out of the backyard, they blended into the White Dragon Temple very harmoniously. At least many of the tourists who came to visit nodded their heads when they saw him.

"Master Shiqing, where are you going now?" Ji Duan followed behind and teased Wen Liang. He looked at the silver-white braid swaying from side to side on the back of Wen Liang's head, and couldn't believe that this guy had such a reputation in the Taoist sect. big.

"What is the origin of Daoist Wen?" Ji Duan caught up with Wen Liang a few steps. He carefully sized Wen Liang, who was called a real person by the Taoist Bailong, "What is Shiqing? What is your name?"

The warm breeze lifted Wen Liang's silver-white hair tail, like a tail swinging back and forth behind his head, Wen Liang's eyes looked ahead, and the jade earrings on his earlobe were faintly shining.

He suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, hummed an incoherent tune softly, and looked at Ji Duan with a pair of blue-gray eyes that were different from ordinary people: "...what do you think?"

"What do I think? How do I know." Ji Duan was confused by his inexplicable smile, "Yes, yes, no, no, otherwise why would people call you Shiqing Daoist."

In Wen Liang's opinion, Ji Duan's chanting was louder than the cicadas singing on the tree. He scratched his face with his knuckles, and replied with a playful smile: "You said yes, so it is?"

Obviously, Wen Liang's answer did not satisfy Ji Duan, but Wen Liang felt that it didn't matter.

In his ears, he automatically blocked the random thoughts from Ji Duan. Those words seemed to be separated by a layer of glass, and he could not hear clearly.

Wen Liang raised his head to look at the light blue sky, and suddenly felt that his current life suddenly became more humane, and it was all thanks to the two people beside him.

He suddenly recalled that a long time ago, someone had said to him with a smile on such a midsummer afternoon: "Brother Shiqing, you will definitely find a good home in the future, so don't worry about it."

But those are all old things, and the floating life like a dream has gone with the wind.

"Wen Liang, Wen Liang?"

A voice interrupted Wen Liang's memories. He slowly retracted his gaze and turned his head to the side. Xie Jin had already covered Ji Duan's mouth and was looking at him worriedly, "Are you okay? I see you have been staring at the sun in a daze. ...that's bad for the eyes."

Wen Liang was taken aback for a moment, his eyes turned back and forth on Xie Jin and Ji Duan, and suddenly he stretched out his hands to hook the necks of both of them at the same time, and laughed heartily: "Haha, I'm fine!"

Xie Ji and the two were unprepared. Xie Jin was slightly shorter than Wen Liang, but Ji Duan, who was not much shorter than Wen Liang, staggered.

The young man frowned instantly, but he didn't push Wen Liang away: "What's going on all of a sudden?"

Wen Liang didn't care about him, and his laughter was still hearty: "You're right, my Taoist name is indeed Shiqing, but I prefer to hear you call me Wen Liang compared to that name."

"Oh, I got it, let go quickly." Ji Duan broke free from Wen Liang's arm and at the same time did not forget to pull Xie Jin out, "Speak well if you have something to say, don't move your hands, do you hear me?"

Wen Liang was laughing on the sidelines, Xie Jin and Ji Duan looked at each other, wondering which nerve this guy made a mistake after going to Bailong Temple, and laughed inexplicably.

"That...Wen Liang." Xie Jin hesitated for a long time, but interrupted Wen Liang, "We have also been to Bailong Temple, but we didn't get any clues about the prisoner there. I always feel that we have reached an impasse."

The prisoner has been hiding in the dark. The two missing children known so far are still alive and dead, and they may be in danger at any time. The ghost boy in the taxi is very likely to be their fate.

Xie Jin had a bad premonition when Cheng Zaimin said that the child was lost. If this premonition came true, he would really be sorry for his promise to Cheng Zaimin.

"Didn't you say that there is still a missing boy, take me to meet his parents, at least let me have a preliminary understanding."

"It's true." Xie Jin looked at the time, first called Cheng Zaimin to confirm, then stopped a taxi, and the three of them took the car to the hospital where Cheng Zaimin's mother was.

Seeing Cheng Zaimin again, Xie Jin was surprised to find that the spirit of the man in front of him seemed much better. Although the dark circles under his eyes showed the haggardness of the past few days, it was much better than the dying look before.

"Brother Cheng, take this." Xie Jin put the fruit bag in his hand on the bedside cabinet, "I came in a bit of a hurry, so I bought some downstairs, just a little bit of my heart..."

"How can I want this, you take it back, take it back quickly." Cheng Zaimin tried his best to shirk, insisting on putting the fruit bag back into Xie Jin's hand, "You have helped me so much, and you have also helped me make suggestions to raise my mother's medical expenses. How can I take your things!"

"You just accept it, this... these things are worthless, but they are my intentions." Although Xie Jin is a little rusty in communicating with people, he is also expressing his thoughts as much as possible, hoping that the other party will accept the things.

After going back and forth, Wen Liang and Ji Duan turned into transparent people. They stood aside and watched the two go back and forth. In the end, Wen Liang stepped in to help and forced the fruit bag to the old lady's pillow: "The child is the most important right now, so you just accept it." Well, this is Xie Jin's wish."

When Cheng Zaimin heard the word "children", he fell silent for a moment. Seeing Wen Liang's movements, he could only thank him muffledly: "Thank you, my Xinxin, where is it..."

"The child should be safe for now, but if you don't hurry up, it's hard to say what variables will happen in the middle."

"Brother Cheng, let's take a step to talk." Xie Jin pointed to the door, indicating that Cheng Zaimin had something to say.

After hearing Wen Liang's words, Cheng Zaimin's lips were trembling. It could be seen that he was more worried about his child's safety than anyone else. He looked back at the old mother on the hospital bed taking oxygen, and walked to the door first.

The three of them followed him to the bottom of the stairs in the west corridor. Almost no one passed by here, and it was quite convenient to talk.

Along the way, Xie Jin was behind Cheng Zaimin. He saw that the man's shoulders were trembling. It should be the cry of a father who thought he had no ability to find his child. None of the three of them tried to expose it.

"Let's just say it here. Although my mother is in a coma, she is still conscious. I am also afraid of irritating her old man again."

Cheng Zaimin took out a crumpled pack of cigarettes from his pocket with trembling hands, but after he remembered where it was, he silently put it back in place.

"Then let's make a long story short." Wen Liang's usual frivolous smile disappeared, and he looked at the man in front of him solemnly, "As you can see, I am a Taoist priest, and your child's behavior may be unusual. Can you tell me in detail what happened that day?"
