Chapter 14: Stay under the corpse

At noon, Hong Jun arrived at the restaurant where he made an appointment with the other three, but it was a big shop called "Yuyue Dragon Gate". Hong Jun's mood has not recovered, and said, "Today ... what a big thing happened!"
Qiu Yongsi, Mo Zhigen and Artest also just sat down, all inexplicable, and said hello: "Come here, hurry and say, long history hasn't arrived yet?"
"He took the cat back." Hong Jun said, "Let's eat it first, and he will explain it later when he comes."
"Really found by him?" Morigen surprised.
The three looked at each other and asked quickly. Hong Jun had to confess that Li Jinglong first returned to Mo Si to settle the cat, and because he found the body, he went to Dali Temple to ask if anyone was missing and brought out a case. The case is of great relevance and the situation must be asked first.
"I'm going to starve to death."
Xiao Er reported the name of the dish, and everyone didn't know what it was. Atay had never experienced Chang'an cuisine all the way. Mo Rigen was born in the grassland. He had never eaten the high-end banquet of Datang, and Hong Jun had never eaten it.
Qiu Yongsi said modestly: "You can order, I will follow you to eat."
Everyone listened to the name of the dish, and finally the carp demon was impatient. He started to order and said one piece behind the mouth of Hong Jun: "The black pheasant chicken soup is six cups, and the patrol fry one dish, onion vinegar chicken, frost orange The okra is served with five shredded cabbage rolls, the main food is six bowls of Queen Huang Huang's rice, and a plate of sweet snow is served after the meal. Lishan roasts a pound in spring. Do not use carp for dishes with fish. "
"Who ?!" Xiaoer's face paled in an instant, "Who is talking ?!"
"Abdomen!" Hong Jun said immediately.
"Four people eat six servings?" Xiaoer couldn't help glancing at the empty place beside Artest, his face creeping.
"There is another one who hasn't come yet." Hong Jun said, "You don't have to come after finishing the meal."
"There are many carp thorns, who eats it." Xiao Er said to himself.
"What did you say ?!" The carp demon glared behind Hong Jun and was insulted.
Primary two: "???
"It's nothing, go quickly." Hong Jun quickly sent the second sophomore down.
Xiaoer went to serve with a lingering fear, and he served a table of exquisite dishes without a moment. Hongjun knew that the food he ate on the road the other day could not be considered a meal. The black pheasant chicken soup is served in a bamboo-like porcelain bowl. The fried patty is fried fish and lamb. The scallion and vinegar chicken is steamed. The chicken is white and yellow. Yuhuang Queen Mother's Rice is half-boiled egg rice, four people and one fish immediately swept away.
"Zhao Zilong had been in Chang'an restaurant before." Hong Jun said while eating, "Fortunately, it listened a lot."
"Oh?" Mo Rigen said with a smile, "Are you a cook? Can't see it."
"When the food." Carp demon replied.
Everyone: "..."
Hong Jun also said: "It was first sold to the market, then bought by the restaurant, and kept in a water tank. Later, there was a kind monk who bought it and released it to have today."
The carp demon was full, buried his head in the glass, drank a few sips of wine, dangled, took a few steps on the table, and finally slammed into a drunk.
"Come." Artest said, "Today I invite guests to toast our friendship and the long history of absence—"
The four of them toasted. This was their first formal meeting since they entered the Exorcism Division. As usual, Hong Jun was not present. The other three were often lazy, but they knew each other. They immediately inquired about Li Jinglong. Hong Jun answered roughly, but he rarely participated in activities such as Mo Rigen and others recently, but now he is very curious about his partners.
"My dad asked me to come to Chang'an." Hong Jun thought for a long time. Many things were specifically told before he could go on the road. Zhao Zilong was so drunk that he couldn't save fish. 'S monster ... um. "
Artest laughed and said, "Where is there a monster in Chang'an?"
Mo Zhigen also laughed and said, "If there are no monsters, what shall we do?"
Hong Jun said: "But Chang Shi also said that there is a demon in Chang'an, but he doesn't come out often."
Hongjun never drank alcohol. For the first time today, he only drank the wine as water. Mo Rigen and Artai thought Hongjun had a good amount of wine. He boasted a pound of Lishan and burned it. Hongjun drank half of it. Jin, when the stamina came up at this moment, his mind was confused, and he couldn't hold it a bit. He fell to the side and fell asleep.
Not long after Hong Jun was drunk, Li Jinglong came, and when he saw Hong Jun was falling backward, he immediately became very hot.
"This is working time, are you actually drinking here?" Li Jinglong said, "Also drunk him, this ..."
Artest hurriedly said: "Long history is coming, sit down! I invite you today!"
Li Jinglong's eyebrows were deeply locked into the table. With a large table of leftovers at the table, Li Jinglong was not disgusted, so he started eating cold dishes. The remaining three were busy asking what happened. Li Jinglong said that everyone was quiet. The tea drinkers, the drinkers, and the dessert eaters all stopped and looked at Li Jinglong.
"A dead man was found under the bed?" Mo Zhigen asked.
Li Jinglong said, "Uh," with his nose, "I am finally interested? Only then did I walk to Dali Temple, and no one has reported the disappearance case recently."
"No," Artest frowned. "What do you mean by hiding the corpse?"
Li Jinglong replied lightly: "I don't know if it is something that I have jurisdiction over, I am looking for you to discuss ..."
"It must be a monster!" Morigen said immediately.
"The monster didn't run away." Qiu Yongsi smiled, with a meaningful meaning in his smile.
"Why? Tell me?" Li Jinglong asked casually, frowning.
Artest looked at Li Jinglong and said a moment later: "Let the two brothers talk."
"No, no, don't you say ..."
"You talk first, you talk first ..."
The three began to push back and forth, Li Jinglong shouted: "Enough!"
Mo Zhigen said after a while: "The corpse will rot in a few days, and its smell will be noticeable. If a dead person is specially air-dried and hidden under the tent, it will be irrational and unreasonable. Direct bury It's a little less serious. "
"So Jin Yun hides his corpse, is he trying to be a demon?" Li Jinglong frowned.
Everyone looked at Li Jinglong with a weird look on their faces. They wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. Li Jinglong inexplicably said: "I was wrong?"
Qiu Yongsi said: "Uh ... this, long history, I believe that the person was weathered into a corpse on the spot, and this will happen."
Li Jinglong instantly understood, murmured: "So it is."
"The whole body's blood was sucked up by the monster." Mo Zhigen replied, "It is most likely to be temporarily tucked into the bed under somehow."
Li Jinglong pondered for a moment, Artest looked at the other two, and said, "When I walked tonight? I always felt that Pingkangli was wrong, and it really revealed the tail of the fox."
Qiu Yongsi immediately stopped Atay with a look and told him not to talk nonsense.
Li Jinglong realized that Ah Tai and Qiu Yongsi went to the blue house the night before and actually went to check the monsters.
"There is a demon in Pingkangli?" Li Jinglong asked.
"It's almost demonish." Qiu Yongsi smiled and said, "Pingkangli and Daming Palace and Xingqing Palace are the heaviest places."
Li Jinglong was silent for a while.
Li Jinglong thought for a long time, was he to inform the Shenwu Army and Longwu Army to surround the poem column and search for the dead body, or did the catch the demon without knowing it? In view of his unlucky luck, if he caught the one who called Jinyun, when no one believed it, he would find himself in trouble. Unexpectedly, these subordinates knew better than one.
"Then just look at your skills tonight." Li Jinglong said.
"Hongjun brothers go out and grab a little demon, no problem." Mo Rigen laughed, "Everyone just beat him."
There was a thunderous noise in the afternoon, and Changan started a light rain again. Li Jinglong quickly started, Mo Rigen was carrying the drunk Hongjun, and he hurried back to the exorcism, and Atai and Qiu Yongsi followed quickly. . The Chang'an girl who was sheltering from the rain along the street discovered that the three were calling in a whisper to make their female companions look quickly.
Li Jinglong is tall and handsome, Mo Rigen is slender and handsome, Arte is as beautiful as a pearl, Qiu Yongsi is personable, and Hong Jun on Mo Rigen's body is like a flawless white jade. Hongjun also carried a salted fish on his back ... no, carp.
The girls followed quickly, chasing the three people, and Mo Zhigen turned around, Artest said: "Ah, it's really distressing, how can there be so many people chasing wherever you go ... everyone is going."
In the afternoon, everyone was listening to the rain in the main hall. The cat in front of the gallery was tied to the column by Li Jinglong with a rope. He barked a few times with a "meow" and pulled his head outwards, trying to get out of the rope. Something happened today, Li Jinglong prepared to send the cat back tomorrow.
The carp demon remained motionless and lay in the yard in the rain.
Hong Jun was lying on the case in the hall. Li Jinglong turned over all the files of Di Renjie's then. The other three seemed to be unspoken.
But look at what Di Renjie said, even if there were demons, most of them were also messing up in Luoyang, the capital. After the emperor moved to Changan, there were very few local records.
"What demon will people's blood and practice?" Li Jinglong asked.
"A lot of cities." Mo Rigen looked down at the dossier, and said casually, "fox, snake, flower, painting ..."
Artest said: "The words can't be too full, what if this corpse is just Jin Yun's lover?"
Everyone exploded Mao at once, Qiu Yongsi said: "Not at all! Artest, do you still have this hobby ?!"
"I'd rather be a demon." Artest smiled.
Suddenly Li Jinglong said, "Dear everyone, did you report to the Exorcist?"
"Front and rear feet arrive." Artest smiled.
"How do you feel that several people have known each other for a long time." Li Jinglong said.
Everyone stopped talking. After a while, Li Jinglong seemed to be careless. In fact, he observed the reaction of the three people and said, "You have to ask your brothers for more advice. Tonight, please."
The three nodded their heads, and Li Jinglong looked at Hong Jun again. Hong Jun was still drunk, and Mo Rigen reached out and shook him, saying, "Hong Jun?"
Everyone was afraid that Hong Jun was drunk at night. When he was trying to wake him up, the carp demon woke up first and stood up drunk, hitting a few pendulums, saying, "I'm back? Hmm ..."
The carp demon swayed and walked down the gallery. When the cat saw the carp demon, he came to the scene and pulled his head out of the rope. He rushed towards the carp demon, and the carp demon was dumbfounded, watching Holding a lion cat, he was startled after a few breaths and screamed, "Help! The cat is running!"
This scare was not trivial. Even Hongjun woke up. Everyone saw that the hard-working cat was going to run and chased him out. Li Jinglong screamed angrily: "Come in!"
Li Jinglong was afraid that the cat had been strangled before. He didn't dare to tie it too tightly. He didn't expect to be run away by it. The carp essence rushed in immediately, and the cat chased in.
The others quickly closed the door, and the carp demon was scared to urinate, hiding his cat everywhere, Hong Jun let it stand, but the fear of natural enemies had defeated Hong Jun ’s order. For the table, a leap, at the critical moment of life and death, it exerted its extraordinary potential. "Boo" sounded like an arrow from the string flying on the top of the cabinet.
Immediately after Artest and Mo Zhigen pounced in the middle, the lion cat was extremely quick, and chased the carp demon twice on the top of the cabinet.
Li Jinglong suddenly realized a serious problem. When he stepped on the wall, he was about to fly to rescue—
It is too late.
The carp demon yelled "Mom", then bounced back, flew into Li Jinglong's arms, and then the lion cat turned around and directly swept down the box filled with the soul pollen.
In the eyes of everyone, the Soul Pollen Box draws an arc from the top of the cabinet and hits Hongjun's head with a soft sound, the box lid pops open, and the pollen is scattered all over the sky.
Everyone: "..."
The doors and windows closed tightly, and the pollen sprinkled. The five people sneeze at the same time, and then began a series of sneezes.
"Haha--!"
"Haha!"
"Ha-he! Ha-he! Ha-he! Ha-he! Ha-sne!"
"Haha!"
Artest, Mo Rigen, Qiu Yongsi, Hong Jun, Li Jinglong sneeze wildly, the sound of sneezing one after another, the five people were surprised for a while, confused for a while, standing in the room, dizzy.
"What happened?" Hong Jun said blankly, "Haha!"
Artest: "Who am I? Haha!"
Morrigan: "This ... you ... where is this? Haha!"
Qiu Yongsi: "Haha! Wait, this Xiongtai? Haha!"
Even the lion cat had been sneezing wildly. When he saw the carp demon's eyes, he looked forward expectantly. After a sneeze, he was full of doubts. Everyone was strange for a while, and then sneered.
"Are we going to ... Haha!" Li Jinglong was another shocking sneeze wave. The carp demon jumped down and ran to open the door.
The carp demon's nose is only effective in the water, the nostrils are too small, and they are often blocked, but they are not affected. At this time, seeing the cat not chasing, he hurriedly pushed open the door.
"Come out!" Cried the carp demon.
In this confusion and sobriety, Hong Jun felt that there was something calling him, so he stumbled out, then shouted at the door together, and everyone came out one after another.
Hong Jun turned dizzy, looked at the carp demon, then looked at Li Jinglong and others, trying to remember something, but his mind was full of chaos, and the cat jumped out, not knowing where to go, the carp demon said: "Hong Jun! Quick Grab it! "
Hong Jun subconsciously hugged the cat, and the carp demon picked up a small brush and dustpan and went in to clean up the soul pollen.
"What happened just now?" Li Jinglong asked.
The remaining four people looked at each other, all of them were stupid. In a short time, Artest "snapped" to the ground and first remembered, saying, "You are Li Changshi!"
"Ah!" Li Jinglong said, "Yes, I am Li Jinglong, here is the Exorcism Division."
"Right, right!" The crowd woke up like dreams, nodding busy, Hong Jun hugged the cat and said blankly: "But why am I holding a cat?"
"Meow?" The lion cat looked around in doubt.
"What are we doing?" Li Jinglong asked.
Everyone's head was filled with question marks for a moment, and Mo Zhigen wandered in the patio in confusion, saying, "I vaguely remember that everyone came here to report to the Exorcist."
"Did you check in?" Qiu Yongsi said, "How do you feel everyone knows each other, unlike the first meeting?"
Li Jinglong said: "Be calm, what must have happened ..."
The carp demon collected the soul-eating pollen from the ground and put it in a large slap kit, saying, "You smell the soul-eating pollen."
"Yes, yes!" Everyone remembered it again, nodded, and now seems to be able to roughly connect the cause and effect.
After half an hour, everyone gradually remembered something, but the most important thing is, what he was doing before smelling the pollen, but he completely forgot, so Li Jinglong led his subordinates, each supporting his chin, in the main hall Meditation and hard thinking.
The carp demon made a rough idea about catching cats, but it didn't know the rest, so "I can't remember what I forgot" and became the primary problem they had to face.
The cat was put in a cage and stared at the carp demon, but he couldn't help it.
"What the happened?" Li Jinglong frowned.
"Maybe you are just drinking tea?" Qiu Yongsi said.
"No." Li Jinglong said to himself, "What do you do with so many files on the table after drinking tea? There is something wrong, we must have been working on an important case."
"First of all, when catching the cat, Hongjun and I hid on the bed ..."
"After I drink my footwash ..."
Everyone began to think hard, Li Jinglong analyzed from the fragmented memory, Hong Jun said to himself, still remembering who he was, where he came from, and gradually, he remembered that he came from Yaojin Palace, from small to large Many details were recalled one by one, and after a brief absence, he remembered Chongming, even remembering the first time he met Chongming.
Hong Jun was relieved. When he was about to speak, he suddenly fell into a strange memory. Li Jinglong's voice seemed to be getting smaller and smaller.
The sun shone and the light and shadow of the plane tree gave him a strong sense of unreality, as if everything was just a dream under the sun. In this dream, his consciousness was getting farther and farther, and time couldn't keep turning. A vortex brought him back to the evening of Yaojin Palace.
Countless scenes flew backwards one by one, suddenly frozen in a certain day.
"Hong Jun said, you saw a dead man under the couch ..."
"dead?"
Everyone was shocked in an instant, staring at the carp demon, carp demon painted vividly, and described what he knew in the room.
Hong Jun's pupils couldn't stop contracting violently. After smelling the pollen from Lishen, he suddenly remembered the first face he saw when he opened his eyes that night when he arrived at Yaojin Palace. .
Instantly the memory backed up again, back into the darkness, he stood in the ruins, looking blankly.
"... I'm the one ..."
A strange man's voice rang in his ears.
