In the end, the graveyard was dug up, and an empty coffin was found.
Gu Susu's body was missing. Officer Ma 2.0 guessed that her body was used for sacrificial refining in order to seize control of Old Wang's Heart-Biting Voodoo.
The two of them quickly buried Gu Susu's grave and left.
Officer Ma 2.0 looked more serious, "Xiaoluo, you know what? I'm not surprised if Old Wang wants to use his power to get some benefits for himself. Compared with power, it's useless if you don't use it."
Little Luo said, "Uncle Ma, are you saying that there's something suspicious about the branch director being the leader of the underground forces in the Eastern District?"
Sir Ma 2.0 shook his head, "I don't believe that Old Wang is the leader of the underground forces … Look, Old Wang is the son-in-law of the Wang Family, and he has the support of the Wang Family. If the Wang Family and Iron Rakshasa are willing to support him … Old Wang will be the leader of the Fire Cloud Police Force sooner or later. Isn't that better than the money he made by committing crimes?"
"You suspect that the branch director was blackmailed, right?"
"Let's assume." Sir Ma 2.0 said seriously, "Let's assume that someone knows Gu Susu's background, and that person knows that Old Wang was implanted with the Heart-biting Gu Susu … And that person happens to have the ability to control the gu. What kind of person do you think that person is? "
"Maybe he's from the ancient country of Styx." Little Luo guessed according to Sir Ma 2.0's speculation.
"If Old Wang was really under someone's control and had no choice but to become the leader of this underground force in the eastern district, then many things can be explained … His suicide, his motive for giving up his future, etc … Not good!" Sir Ma 2.0 took a deep breath and said, "This underground force hasn't collapsed yet! We've alerted them this time! "
Sir Ma 2.0 patted his head heavily, "The HQ cleaned up the corrupt people in the branch, but at the same time, the underground force went into a darker corner. Old Wang killed himself to save the king … So it's more difficult to find the culprit."
Officer Xiao Luo thought for a while, "Did the people on the list who were taken away from the district confess anything?"
Officer Ma 2.0 shook his head and said, "They're all saying that Old Wang ordered them to do it. Old Wang has no evidence to prove that he's dead. The materials provided by Da Liu also pointed to Old Wang … It's solid evidence. Old Wang's death is suspicious, and it's hard for him to turn the situation around. "
Little Luo said, "There's one more person."
Sir Ma 2.0 paused, "Luo's right, how could I forget about him … the guy who sneak-attacked me! He didn't get caught this time! I'm going to prepare for it … You go back first and recharge your energy! You're the main force to deal with that guy's forbidden device tomorrow night! "
They parted outside the cemetery. Sir Ma 2.0 said that he was going to make some mysterious arrangements, and Little Luo didn't ask.
"Oh, here's this back to you!" Before leaving, Officer Ma 2.0 threw the Protective Talisman back and took out a similar one from his collar. He smiled, "Actually, I have one too. Your aunt asked for it for me!"
Little Luo said coldly, "Uncle Ma, can I visit your house when I have the chance?"
"Sure." Sir Ma 2.0 said without hesitation, "Just come if you want. You're not an outsider."
"Drive slowly." Little Luo said in a low voice, "Don't drive when the light turns yellow."
Sir Ma 2.0 shrugged, waving his hand and driving away.
…
Little Luo didn't leave the cemetery immediately. He didn't come back until Sir Ma 2.0 was far away.
"Aren't you the police officer … Why are you back?"
In the cemetery, a thin, middle-aged man with a pale face and bloodshot eyes, who seemed to be seriously ill, raised his head in astonishment.
He was the caretaker of the cemetery … or rather, the gravekeeper.
Sir Ma 2.0 said that he was sick because he had been living in the cemetery for a long time … Most of the people who worked here didn't have a good ending.
It had nothing to do with whether he was a good person or not. It was purely caused by the environment … Besides, people who stayed in the cemetery for a long time would become eccentric.
The gravekeeper didn't treat Sir Ma 2.0 nicely when he came here. If not for Sir Ma 2.0's ID, he might not have let him in.
"I accidentally dirtied a graveyard." Little Luo smiled, "So I came back to clean it up and burn some paper treasures … Do you have any paper treasures?"
"No need." The gravekeeper said, "Tell me which graveyard it is. I'll clean it up tomorrow. You can go back now. Don't stay here for too long. "
"It's OK." Little Luo said casually, "I'll show my sincerity if I do it myself. Sir, I'm just asking for peace of mind. "
The gravekeeper frowned and looked at Little Luo up and down. He pondered and turned around, saying, "Follow me."
Every few steps he took, he would cough a few times. Even though it was light, in the dead of night, the sound of his coughing was loud and clear.
The cemetery was a very quiet place. It was so quiet that one could almost hear the faint buzzing sound of the resonating sound.
The mausoleum keeper led Officer Luo to a cabin behind the management office. After saying "Wait a minute", he walked in. After a while, he came out again with the things in his hand.
There was a bucket, a small shovel, a rag, a ladle … and some paper treasures and candles.
He charged 66 yuan and said it was for good luck.
"I'll go with you." However, the mausoleum keeper added a condition, which seemed to be a sign of his dedication.
Officer Xiao Luo had no objection. After taking the things, he left the management with the mausoleum keeper, and then walked all the way up the mountain.
They talked occasionally.
"Sir, what's your name?"
"Just call me Uncle De."
"Uncle De, have you been in this cemetery for a long time?"
Uncle De said casually, "Twenty or thirty years. Do you think it's long?"
"Are there many people here?" Little Luo asked curiously.
"Life Taboo, Death Burial, Qingming Double Yang Zhongyuan, there will always be people who will come." Uncle De said expressionlessly, "Who would come here … Why do you have so many questions? Where's the graveyard? "
"It's in front." Little Luo pointed to the front … It was a place behind the hillside. In the dark night, there seemed to be a faint light flashing by. "Do you see it? It's there."
Uncle De's face changed. He suddenly threw the tools in Little Luo's hand to the ground, "Go! I don't need you today. Go away … Go away! "
Uncle De's face was slightly ferocious. His face was pale and bloodless. He looked like an evil ghost.
Little Luo looked at the paper treasures on the ground. He didn't say anything. He just squatted down and picked up the things slowly.
"I said go away! Do you understand me or not? "
"I'll leave." Little Luo said softly, "But … Do you really want me to leave now?"
Uncle De frowned in astonishment.
Officer Luo stood up slowly and swept away the dust on the paper clothes in his hand. He said softly, "Uncle De, don't you want to give this to her?"
Clothes.
Uncle De subconsciously looked at the paper used to burn the deceased … This was just something he casually took from the warehouse. It was the most ordinary and also the most inferior product.
But at this time, this should be the worst thing, but in the hands of Officer Luo, it actually became a real garment … soft, white and translucent.
"How come …"
"Come on." Little Luo said softly again.
This time, it was him who led Uncle De to the mountainside.
…
…
It was empty around. There was only a small grave at the back of the hillside, under a pine tree. In front of the grave, one could see the distant mountains and the horizon instead of the fiery clouds.
There was a bunch of fresh yellow flowers in front of the grave.
When Officer Xiao Luo and Uncle De arrived, the green will-o '-the-wisp on the tombstone suddenly went out … It seemed that it didn't have enough time to hide, so it was seen.
Uncle De opened his mouth. His expression was sometimes solemn, sometimes worried … and sometimes cruel.
"Who are you?" He couldn't help worrying, "You're not an ordinary police officer."
Little Luo walked to the front of the grave, squatting down and putting the paper treasures, "Uncle De, you come here every day, right?"
"How do you know?" Uncle De frowned, "Because of this bunch of yellow flowers?"
Little Luo shook his head and pointed at the grass, "Because of these dried yellow flowers, if not changed every day, they wouldn't be here … I saw them when I passed by."
"You're observant." Uncle De sneered. It seemed that he had made some preparations. He took a deep breath and said, "Yes! I come here every day! And I'll come back in the future … I won't be polite to anyone who tries to stop me! Including you! I don't care who you are, but since you've found me … "
A gust of cold air suddenly burst out from Uncle De's body.
His face became even paler, and his cheeks instantly caved in, turning him into a skeleton … Gradually, a wolf mask appeared on Uncle De's face.
This mask gave Little Luo the same feeling as [Black Dragon King's Claw].
He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is this a forbidden device?"
"Humph!" Uncle De sneered, "After so many years, someone still forced me to take it out … If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being meddlesome!"
Little Luo shook his head, "Actually, I'm not a meddlesome person, but I usually encounter things … It's not good or bad. Besides, I don't mean any harm … What are you worried about? My identity as a police officer? "
Uncle De's cold air became more and more intense. The hillside was filled with all kinds of wolf howls, "I don't care … I'll kill whoever disturbs her! That's all! "
Little Luo said, "In Huoyun City, it's illegal to raise ghosts without permission. Even if I didn't come here, someone would find this place sooner or later … Do you plan to guard here for a lifetime?"
"It's useless to say more." Uncle De took a deep breath. Under the wolf mask, his body swelled up instantly … His whole body lay on the ground, and there was a layer of green wolf-like coat on his body.
Pounce!
A golden Eight Trigrams appeared under Little Luo's feet. Uncle De's body was instantly bounced to one side by the Eight Trigrams!
"This is … Eight Trigrams Reversal?" Uncle De was shocked, "Who are you to Ye Yan?"
Little Luo said, "Take off the mask, it's not good for you … I can help you."
Uncle De gritted his teeth and pounced again.
When he couldn't talk properly, Little Luo could only directly release the defense of the Eight Trigrams Reversal. Without using any tricks, he grabbed Uncle De's terrifying claws and tore off the wolf mask on his face under Uncle De's bewildered gaze!
Halfway up the mountain, Uncle De suddenly let out a mournful cry!
That wolf mask was connected to Uncle De's face with many flesh-like threads … It was completely symbiotic on Uncle De's face. Tearing it off was like tearing a human's skin!
The wolf mask was about to be taken off, but it seemed to have its own consciousness. The eyes of the wolf mask suddenly lit up, and then a black shadow of a huge wolf appeared, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws.
Little Luo waved his hand expressionlessly.
His palm slashed, like a sharp sword, directly splitting the black shadow of the huge wolf into two. Then the eyes of the wolf mask dimmed instantly.
The raging wind on the hillside disappeared in a split second. After a wolf's howl, everything returned to normal.
Uncle De's entire body was powerless as he collapsed on the ground … On the ground, was the wolf mask that had already been completely stripped off. Right now, it was right beside him, but it had actually completely lost its luster.
Uncle De was absent-minded for a long time.
After a long time, he subconsciously picked up the wolf mask, and then looked up at the young police officer inconceivably, "You … How did you do that …"
"Do you feel better now?" Little Luo smiled, "I think, we should be able to talk properly now."
Uncle De opened his mouth. After a while, he slowly exhaled and looked at the mask in his hand with a complicated expression. He bitterly laughed. "I never thought that there would be a day when I would be free from it … I always thought that even if I died, it would still be nailed to my body. I feel, I feel that I haven't been so relaxed for a long time. "
He supported his knees and stood up.
When the wolf mask was lost, he also lost most of his powerful strength. At this moment, he was so weak that he could be blown down by the mountain wind … but Uncle De didn't care.
"What are you going to do?" Uncle De looked at Little Luo deeply and asked.
"You, do you have a story?" Little Luo asked softly.
…
Uncle De threw the wolf mask on the ground without any reluctance … as if it was just a waste, even if it was once a forbidden tool on the list.
Uncle De picked up the bucket and slowly walked to the front of the grave. He slowly wiped the dirty tombstone.
"There's nothing to say." Uncle De said indifferently, "It's just a brave guy who lost his family when he was young."
Uncle De's eyes gradually became hazy, "The first? The first is a good thing, for it, I kept challenging and became the first first, but only the second first. Gradually, I became afraid, I even didn't dare to look back at those guys who were defeated … I was thinking, when will they catch up with me? "
"Train, train, train … train."
"That duel, I still won … I don't plan to walk the Asura Road again. No one can be invincible forever."
"After that duel, I didn't feel the least bit of joy … because I wasn't by her side at the time. In order to win the duel, I went into seclusion for several months. After the duel, I returned home as soon as possible, but I discovered that she was no longer there. I thought that she would be able to take care of herself, but why … why? "
Perhaps it was because he had stripped off the mask.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault … it's really my fault."
Uncle De was unable to conceal the pain in his heart. He didn't cry, but his voice was a bit hoarse.
He wiped every corner of the tombstone in a daze. "These past years, I've been guarding here every day. I know that raising ghosts is a great taboo, and I also know that this is bad for you … but I, but what can I do? I just want to see you again … "
"I don't want to be the first … I don't want to be a powerhouse …"
Some warm light began to flicker in Uncle De's hazy eyes. Officer Xiao Luo stood beside him, silently lighting the brazier used to melt treasures.
"Come." He looked at Uncle De and handed the paper cloth in his hand to him. "For you … for her."
Uncle De was startled. His hands trembled as he subconsciously took it. He sighed with a complicated expression. "It's her birthday in a few days … but, it's fine, she likes white."
Uncle De didn't say anything else. He threw the paper cloth into the brazier.
Some people said that burning something for the deceased was a kind of consolation … but how could they take it? Those things had already turned into ashes.
Raising a ghost … Actually, he didn't succeed.
He didn't have the ability to do that. He learned it halfway and could only imitate it. He couldn't make her appear in human form … In the end, he couldn't see her again. He only knew that she was here.
Every day, every day, every day, only the flickering of the will-o '-the-wisps could be seen. He only knew that she was here.
When he talked to her, could she hear him … Could she hear him?
"Wenwen, forgive me, okay?"
It wasn't the first time he begged. Uncle De closed his eyes. The ashes in the brazier flew up. Because of the airflow, some of the embers hit Uncle De's face.
It was as if … as if someone had touched his face.
Uncle De subconsciously opened his eyes. In the light of the fire, a figure in white slowly appeared … Uncle De opened his mouth, and a trembling sound came from his throat.
He wanted to say something, but he lost his voice. Ah … ah … a few times.
"Dad, look at this dress of mine, isn't it beautiful … Wenwen has always been here!"
The little girl, wearing a white dress, smiled like a flower.
"I'm sorry …" Uncle De opened his mouth and burst into tears. He touched her … touched her. It was a real touch. "Wenwen …"
More than 20 years had passed.
It turned out that … he could wait.
…
…
…
…
Dew began to condense on the leaves.
The brazier had been extinguished. The temperature had dropped slightly. It was a little cold. In front of the grave under the pine tree, Uncle De leaned against the tombstone and curled up his body.
It should be a good dream.
Little Luo Officer was cleaning up the remains after the fire gently.
A small figure in a white dress was bending down with her hands clasped behind her back … The little girl blinked her eyes and wanted to kiss Little Luo Officer's face.
"No, you should give it to someone you really like." Little Luo Officer smiled and put his finger on the little girl's lips.
"Dad said that when you thank someone, you should kiss them!"
"He won't say that now." Little Luo Officer smiled casually, "By the way, can you give it to me?"
"This?" The little girl blinked her eyes, and without thinking, she carefully picked up the little yellow flower in front of the grave along with the vase.
It was not that she was reluctant to give it to him, but because she had just transformed … she couldn't carry it — her strength didn't allow her to do so.
"Big brother, do you like little yellow flowers?" The little girl asked curiously.
"Because it's so nice." Little Officer Luo took over the vase … and the vase disappeared as if it was magic.
The little girl couldn't help being surprised.
"Don't come out and scare people in the future." Little Luo Officer reminded her softly, "Especially those who carry a lot of evil-warding items and feel very scared. Do you understand?"
"Okay! I understand! " Wenwen smiled like a silver bell. Then she thought for a while and said, "Big brother, are you here to investigate the grave that was dug up? Wenwen knows! Wenwen saw it! That person has a tattoo on his hand! "
As she spoke, the little girl picked up a branch and slowly drew on the ground.
…
…
…
…
[Bloodline] Treasury, underground of the Civil Administration Building.
Iron Rakshasa had already wiped Ma Houde's [Precious Jade] many times … Suddenly, Ma Houde's stars dimmed and returned to their original brightness.
Although it was still very bright, it wasn't that abnormal … It was abnormal just now!
"What happened?" Iron Luosha couldn't help murmuring, "A sudden burst of luck … Is he going to have a feast?"
But looking at the brightness of Old Ma's star at this moment, it didn't look like he was about to eat a banquet because his luck had suddenly run out.
Iron Luosha pondered for a while. Although Old Ma's star had recovered, she still decided … to wipe the [Precious Jade] again.
The Precious Jade couldn't be covered by dust!
