The Psychic Resurrection: Riding the Mirage
Chapter 126 Leaving the Tomb
To be honest, Hu Jiu has done a lot of evil in his life and has done countless bad things, but this is the first time he has been approached by the victim's family.
When he was still weak, he would disguise himself as a good person in the standard sense. Even if he wanted to harm someone, he would use extremely secretive means to ensure that the victim would not suspect him after harming someone. He would not be so smug and complacent that someone would find him out.
After he gained strength, he still maintained this good tradition. No matter how many bad things he did in private, he must at least be justified on the surface and not be able to find any big stains.
Regarding Su Jinghang's death, Hu Jiu was not primarily responsible. He was just an accomplice who participated in the frame-up.
As for the real murderer Yue Renchun, if nothing else, he should have been completely cold.
"Although I was nominally involved in that supernatural incident, I was not actually responsible for it. The original person in charge of Yuzhou City, Yue Renchun, disappeared for a while, and your brother replaced him as the new person in charge. Later, Yue Renchun appeared again, and The supernatural incident was solved." Hu Jiu deliberately pointed the suspicion at Yue Renchun.
Su Jingtang looked melancholy: "I know everything you said, but Yue Renchun has been missing for a long time, and I can't find him at all, so I want to find you to understand the situation."
Hu Jiu said: "If you have any problems, you can go directly to the headquarters for help. The headquarters has always been responsible and will not ignore it."
"Haha." A hint of sarcasm flashed in Su Jingtang's eyes, "I want to overturn my brother's case. How could he, such a good person, bear such a big crime and be criticized by thousands of people after his death? But the headquarters doesn't care at all. They ignored me, and they only told me that the incident was a done deal, and that my brother was the culprit that caused all ten houses in Yuzhou City to be empty. "
"Do you have any concrete evidence?" Hu Jiu asked back.
Su Jingtang shook her head. If she had concrete evidence, she would have gone to the headquarters to start a fight.
Hu Jiu said: "You don't even have evidence. How can you let the headquarters believe that you helped your brother overturn the case?"
Su Jingtang suddenly became anxious, "That matter was handled very cleanly. I can't find any clues, but I believe that my brother is really a good person. He used to help others..."
Hu Jiu smiled and said nothing. Only a fool would believe that a person who has done one or several good deeds must be a good person and will never do evil.
Hu Jiu is also a good person on the surface~
Su Jingtang followed Hu Jiu for a while, and kept testing and making innuendoes along the way.
Her attitude is really tempting Hu Jiu. Sometimes Hu Jiu is a person who likes to talk nonsense, especially when it comes to things that cannot be verified. He will say some ambiguous and specious words to make things more confusing. .
It harms others but does not benefit oneself, but it can gain emotional value.
Not long after walking, the two separated.
Hu Jiu had gained enough, so he used his declining condition as an excuse to return to the entrance of the ancient tomb and leave the ancient tomb.
Su Jingtang still wants to continue exploring. She wants to grow stronger quickly and gain enough attention from the headquarters. Even if there is no evidence, the headquarters will look at her face and clear her brother's name.
At the beginning, she really wanted to follow the normal legal procedures and redress her brother's injustice. But later, after being in this circle for a long time, she understood many things.
After separating from Su Jingtang, Hu Jiu saw two ghost masters from a distance who were in conflict and fighting to the death. One of them was the man who looked like a mummy.
They didn't notice Hu Jiu passing by, and Hu Jiu didn't want to meddle in his own business. From the corner of his eye, he saw that the mummy was at a disadvantage at first. However, this disadvantage was deliberately shown by him. He killed the opponent in an unexpected way - almost Everyone thought that the mummy was the ghost master, but in fact the piece of cloth wrapped around his body was his true body. The wrapped body seemed to be just a replaceable carrier, used to attract firepower, and the true body could be used. Look for opportunities and strike with a fatal blow.
"Sure enough, they are all old men." Hu Jiu thought to himself.
Continuing to turn back according to the route he came from, he quickly found the corridor and walked out directly. Nothing unusual happened along the way.
Arriving outside the ancient tomb, Hu Jiu found a broken stone and sat down to rest for a while, waiting for other teammates.
Hu Jiu should be the first one to leave the ancient tomb. It was dark outside at this time. He closed his eyes and meditated like a stone sculpture. After an unknown amount of time, he heard a noise. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Fang Qingqiao and Zheng Ling who came out with a group of people. They looked very embarrassed and there were not many of them.
Fang Qingqiao had a penetrating wound on his shoulder and was bleeding all the time. He looked very ugly. It looked like he had encountered trouble in the tomb.
Zheng Ling treated his wounds gently, "Should we leave now, or should we wait until the others come out?"
Fang Qingqiao said: "Just wait, there is still some time before the exploratory deadline, and there may be ghosts wandering around the area near the ancient tomb. I am injured now, so it is not appropriate to act rashly."
Someone pulled out a knife, cut down the surrounding weeds and shrubs, cleared a slightly larger clean area, and set up a tent.
Someone lit a bonfire to boil water for cooking. Although the terrain nearby was flat and there was no shelter, the people present were all ghost masters and were not afraid of wild beasts at all.
The night in Lanqiong Mountain is very quiet, the dark clouds in the sky have not dispersed, and not a single star can be seen when looking up.
The light and heat brought by the flames made the atmosphere no longer as silent as before. Everyone gathered around the fire and chatted about everything.
Some people gained a lot, some suffered heavy losses, and some didn't make it out alive at all.
Fang Qingqiao bandaged the wound, sat down next to Hu Jiu, and asked very familiarly: "How are you doing? Are you in danger?"
Hu Jiu said with a smile: "I found a supernatural item, and then I encountered a particularly fierce ghost. I couldn't bear it anymore and got out in time."
Fang Qingqiao glanced at Hu Jiu's bag. It was as deflated as when he came in. There was almost no change. His mood suddenly became inexplicably better and he said: "I also found a supernatural item, but I was also injured. Damn it." Idiot, I told him not to run around when he encountered a ghost, but he refused to listen and almost killed many people. "
Fang Qingqiao complained, the wound on his shoulder was still oozing blood, and the smelly blood seemed to be mixed with a strange fragrance. Hu Jiu inadvertently sniffed carefully, "Brother, you smell so good~"
"Ah?" Fang Qingqiao was stunned.
Hu Jiu said: "Why do I smell a very special fragrance on you?"
A somewhat familiar scent.
Fang Qingqiao didn't take it seriously: "It's probably the smell of cosmetics on Zheng Ling's body. Girls always smell good."
Hu Jiu looked at Zheng Ling. This girl was rarely taciturn from beginning to end, and seemed willing to become Fang Qingqiao's shadow.
Perhaps sensing Hu Jiu's gaze, Zheng Ling suddenly raised his head and showed a charming smile, and then quickly returned to his original state. The smile was so fast that it seemed like it was just an illusion.
Hu Jiu also hoped it was an illusion.
The feeling of seeing an old friend is so strong that it cannot be ignored.
Time passed quickly, and several people walked out of the ancient tomb one after another. It was not until the last day that He Ming helped Tian Shan out.
He Ming was in good condition, with no injuries on his body, just some dust, and his face looked a little tired.
It's different in Tianshan. The old man is miserable, with his hands and feet broken, and he looks like he will die soon.
"Today is the deadline for the exploration mission. We will leave early tomorrow morning and return. I won't wait for those who haven't come out yet. Let them wish for themselves." He Ming said coldly.
No one objected, and those who wanted to object were still in their tombs.
During the break, Hu Jiu came closer and asked Tian Shan: "Mr. Tian, you were injured. Was it caused by the abnormal event we encountered before?"
"Not entirely." Tian Shan replied, "Those dilapidated stone sculptures and squares, I continued to walk forward for a while, and I did encounter a third one that was exactly the same, but you were not there. Later, I studied for a while and found out that The spaces are layered one upon another, with countless identical different spaces nested together. The dilapidated stone carvings are the symbols. If you go forward, you will go deeper into the space. If you go back strictly, you can leave. "
"But when I was leaving, the stone sculptures on a certain level of space suddenly disappeared, causing me to almost get lost in it. Fortunately, the level was not high, and I could still use the ghost realm to force my way out."
"So that's it." Hu Jiu suddenly realized, "I was waiting for you for a long time, but you didn't come back. Then I walked back the way I came. Unexpectedly, I accidentally bumped into him and was not trapped. inside."
Early the next morning, He Ming woke up early to count the number of people and was about to go down the mountain and leave.
Just then I heard a "thump" sound...
A figure quickly rushed out of the ancient tomb corridor, it was Hong Xing.
Seeing his figure, many people were looking at him carefully. Some people actually stepped out and were not afraid of being left in there too late.
Hong Yong, who ran out, looked behind him with lingering fear. He breathed a sigh of relief and immediately urged: "Captain, the exploration mission has expired today, right? Let's hurry up and leave!"
He Ming waved his hand, and everyone started to move. The process of going down the mountain was much smoother than the process of going up the mountain. I didn't encounter any ghosts, but the sky was still cloudy, and occasionally a few cold raindrops fell.
When the raindrop was still half a centimeter away from Hu Jiu's skin, it seemed to be affected by some unknown force and was directly bounced away.
Walking all the way to where the ghost bus parked, He Ming opened the door and got in, sitting in the driver's seat.
Everyone saw it, and there was fresh blood on the front window.
"Captain He just put the ghost bus here, and he wasn't afraid of being picked up?" Someone said jokingly, wanting to test the rules of this ghost bus from He Ming.
He Ming responded: "The ghost bus has a matching key. If you drive without the key, the bus will eat it for fuel."
The ghost bus drove smoothly. After leaving the scope of the ancient tomb, the dark clouds in the sky gradually disappeared. The warm sunshine shone on the body, slightly dispelling the haze in the heart.
After returning to the hotel not long after, He Ming said: "At two o'clock in the afternoon, it's still the same conference room. Everyone needs to attend a meeting. Remember not to be late. There may be special notices from the headquarters, and some resources may be exchanged for your supernatural powers. thing."
Many ghost controllers were gearing up and their eyes were bright. Hu Jiu vaguely heard someone saying that they wanted to exchange for a few more immortality potions...
After returning to the hotel room, Hu Jiu noticed something was wrong as soon as he opened the door. There was a faint smell in the air. He did not have this smell on his body. It was the corpse smell unique to ghost masters.
"Has anyone been to my room? Or is there someone ambushing me in there?" Hu Jiu looked around, then backed out and asked the front desk to change rooms.
This is a hotel. He doesn't have to stay in that room. He doesn't have any important items in it. He should change it to reduce trouble.
The service staff immediately opened a new room for Hu Jiu, and he moved in with his bag.
The ghost rider who was preparing to ambush Hu Jiu in the room was stunned. He probably didn't expect Hu Jiu to do this. All the traps set in advance were invalidated.
If it doesn't work to come secretly, then we can only knock on the door openly!
Dongdongdong——
There was a knock on the door.
Hu Jiu pretended not to hear it.
The headquarters would communicate directly by phone if there was something, and acquaintances would also call directly if there was something. The hotel service staff would not keep knocking on the door without saying anything, so... the person who only knocked on the door without saying anything probably had bad intentions.
Since he was an uninvited guest, don't blame Hu Jiu for messing with his mood!
The continuous knocking on the door lasted for a long time before it stopped. It was probably impatient. After a while, the door of the room was pushed open.
A short-haired woman walked in. She was wearing a long black trench coat, half of her face was blocked by the collar, and her eyes were filled with anger. As a result, she found no one in the room when she entered the room!
How is this possible!
She had been paying attention to this room. Hu Jiu had never come out since he entered. Why was the room empty? Where did he go!
The short-haired woman looked everywhere, broke into the bathroom, and searched the bathroom bed. Except for a faint smell of wine in the air, there was nothing else.
"How cunning!" The short-haired woman cursed inwardly and turned away. She thought Hu Jiu had sensed the crisis and ran away in advance.
As soon as the door was closed, footsteps were heard in the room.
Ka——
The short-haired woman immediately turned around and rushed back to the room, looking around with a very vigilant look. Since there were footsteps, maybe the person had not left yet, but was hiding in this room in some strange way.
Snap——
The short-haired girl fell to the ground in an instant after stepping on something round under her feet.
She fell down in a shameful posture, and she was filled with anger and anger. She finally blurted out a word: "Fuck!"
She quickly got up and patted her clothes twice. Suddenly, she felt a chill on her back...
