Chapter 49 The real murderer behind the scenes (2)
Lin Jinglu didn't answer in silence, playing with a steel spoon beside the hospital bed.Suddenly, the solid steel spoon began to bend, liquefy, and change shape in the liquid state.By the time it solidified back into solid form, it had changed shape—into a thin, sharp blade.She didn't do anything else, but the blade suddenly flew out of her palm, and plunged straight into the ceiling, completely submerged in it.

During this series of changes, a moth scar shining with silver light slowly formed around her.

"It looks like it's useful a little bit." Lin Jinglu smiled slightly.

"Boss!" A few thugs in the Shamat style opened the curtain and walked into this barbecue restaurant full of oily smoke, and greeted He Yifan respectfully.

"How is it? The owner of that house hasn't come back yet?" He Yifan asked expressionlessly.

"No, the doors and windows are always closed, and the lights are not turned on at night." A little gangster replied.

"Understood, let's go back first, thanks for your hard work." He Yifan nodded lightly.

After the little bastards left, she finally couldn't hold back her serious face, and burst out laughing with a "puchi", Yu Han who was sitting next to her was very helpless: "You just like to mess around...how can you hang out with these little bastards? ?”

"At the critical moment, the little ruffian can come in handy. Doesn't this save us the trouble of monitoring Lin Jinglu?" He Yifan stretched out his finger and poked Yu Han's forehead, "You are just too serious and serious. Don’t even think about it, our family’s talents have been exhausted in the past ten years, so how can we fight against them if we don’t use our brains much?”

"Isn't everyone's goal to destroy the devil?" Yu Han was unconvinced, "Why do you always want to fight against something? We should unite..."

"Childish!" He Yifan snorted.After a while, real sadness appeared on her face, "That bad boy Fence has met the demon servant for real, and it will be a matter of time before the moth marks in his body are aroused. In my opinion, the four major families It's still a small matter, and they will at least obey the rules to a certain extent. The scary thing is that those people who have been hiding in the dark may have greater power than the four major families. I really don't know what we should do , maybe I have to use the forbidden technique..."

"Don't!" Yu Han was taken aback, and couldn't help raising his voice to attract the attention of other diners.He quickly covered his mouth, lowered his voice and said, "Don't! Have you forgotten how your parents died?"

"I will never forget," He Yifan shook his head, "but because of this, I can't let them die in vain."

"Let us men do the charge!" Yu Han was very angry, "I won't let you take such a risk!"

"You won't let me? What's the use if you don't let me?" He Yifan was happy, "You don't even think about it. Up to now, the attached brain can only make you have a stronger body than ordinary people, and it can't even arouse the slightest moth scar. It's enough to beat up local ruffians, but if I really meet those opponents, can I count on you?"

Yu Han looked like a hurt puppy, but he was powerless to refute.He Yifan patted his arm: "Okay, okay, I'm just talking, don't take it so seriously, I won't take my own life as a joke."

"But if it's really necessary, I won't hesitate at all," she added.

Fons knocked on the door four or five times repeatedly, but no one came to answer the door.He tried to reach out and push, only to find that the door was ajar and not locked.

He opened the door and walked in, closing the door behind him.A few months later, I walked into this old house again, and the room was still so messy, filled with the musty smell of paper and the smell of old incense candles.The wooden altar in the living room is still there, but there are no burning incense candles in it, only cold ashes are left.Looking at the table again, the two steamed buns on a plate had become moldy and black.

Feng Si suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.He tentatively called out: "Mr. Zhai, are you there?" But there was no response.After thinking about it, he grabbed a fruit knife on the coffee table in the living room and pushed open the bedroom door.As soon as he entered the door, he saw a net-like object hanging in the center of the room. When he took a closer look, his whole body trembled with fright, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

——It was not a net bag at all, but a pile of tough gray silk threads whose material was hard to distinguish, and wrapped in the silk threads were four or five lifeless corpses!And these are not ordinary corpses, but completely shriveled mummified corpses.The gray color unique to the mummy, the white teeth exposed beyond the gums, and the wide-open eyes that seemed to be staring at the ceiling formed a unique horror atmosphere, even for a man as bold as Fons. I couldn't help being startled.

Fortunately, he was well-informed, not to mention mummified corpses, which were not enough to look at in front of those monsters that were several meters high.He collected himself and carefully observed the corpses.This time the number is clear, there are five in total, four men and one woman can barely be identified, all of them are completely dried out, like ancient corpses dug out of the desert for thousands of years.They were huddled together, entangled in a strange mass of gray silk, the ends of which were glued to the ceiling.

Feng Si tried to reach out his hand, pulled the pillowcase from the bed to cover his hand, and pulled the silk threads.The towel was immediately stuck, and it was impossible to break free. With such strong stickiness, it was no wonder that those heavy corpses could be hung in mid-air by such thin silk threads.He is also a person who has watched a lot of horror movies. From these filaments and withered corpses, he quickly thought of a word, a creepy word.

"Is it a spider?" He whispered, although he hadn't turned his head yet, he had already keenly noticed that there seemed to be something moving behind him.It was a feeling that made people feel anxious, and at the same time made people afraid to turn around, because the visual impact after turning around might be unbearable.

But Feng Si still gritted his teeth and turned around. Behind him, the bedroom door was blocked by a strange thing.At first glance, this thing looks like a human being, but it is curled up very small, and its exposed hands and feet are covered with black bristles.He was hanging upside down in mid-air in a strange posture, and what held his body was a gray filament extending from his mouth, and this mouth became extremely thin, like a needle tube.He tried his best to raise his head so that Fons could see his face clearly.

"Zhai Jianguo, you have become like this. Is it because you have a brain stem? Are these people sucked dry after being preyed on by you?" Feng Si calmed down instead.From the moment he saw the mummy in the spider web, he had prepared for the worst.Looking at it now, Zhai Jianguo's transformation is not complete, at least he can still see a human figure and a vague face.

This is what Lu Hanyi said back then. He thought that possessing a brain would turn some people into terrifying deformed monsters, and Zhai Jianguo in front of him was like this.

The spider-like Zhai Jianguo let out a rapid breathing sound, his limbs were firmly attached to the wall, moving in bit by bit, as if there were suction cups on the palms and soles of the feet.The eyes of this big four-legged spider were red, staring at Feng Si firmly. There was a beast-like ferocity in his eyes, but also a deep hatred that only humans could understand.

"You hate me? Why do you hate me?" Feng Si asked puzzled, "You must know that you were the one who lied to me back then."

At the same time, his eyeballs flicked around the room, because he really didn't expect Zhai Jianghui to be so mutated. The small fruit knife in his hand seemed not enough, and it seemed that he had to find a more brutal weapon.

Zhai Jianguo's sharpened mouth—or mouthparts—made a shrill and piercing sound, but could not form a human voice. It seemed that the entire vocal organ had mutated.He simply stopped trying to speak, and after a long hiss, he stretched his limbs, like a real spider, and threw his whole body sideways towards Fons.Feng Si had been prepared for a long time, and dodged the blow with a side attack, and Zhai Jianguo hit the spider web secreted from his own body.But those spider webs would not stick to his body, so after the collision, Zhai Jianguo fell to the ground, the spider web was also broken, and the mummified corpses fell one after another and hit him.Zhai Jianguo screamed in pain, hurriedly pushed the mummy away, and slowly stood up again.

Taking advantage of this time, Feng Si had already seen Zhai Jianguo's movements clearly.Although his form was terrifying, his body's sensitivity was average, and judging from the pain he made after being hit by the mummy, he wasn't considered very strong.This gave him a lot of confidence.In fact, this encounter was a few days ago, and just seeing such a huge humanoid spider was enough to scare him into limbs.However, after experiencing all kinds of events in the ancient tomb, his courage and courage are much stronger than before - at least the giant spider in front of him has no moth marks, and it is far less terrifying than the monsters.

Even so, he was still not very sure about dealing with Zhai Jianguo.After struggling to get up, Zhai Jianguo kept chasing him, relying on the walls and ceiling, but he could only use his faster speed and more flexible body to scurry around in this small two-bedroom apartment.Several times in the middle, he wanted to escape directly. It was expected that Zhai Jianguo's strange appearance would not dare to be exposed in broad daylight, but he quickly dismissed this idea.

"This is something that belongs to 'our' world," Feng Si stared at Zhai Jianguo viciously, "it has to be resolved between us."

Zhai Jianguo screamed "Zhi Zhi".

The two chased and fled, running back and forth in several rooms, and Feng Si observed Zhai Jianguo more carefully.As Lu Hanyi told him earlier, the function of attached brain varies from person to person, and the effect on different people may be completely different.Although Zhai Jianguo has some characteristics of a spider, his body has not become stronger and more agile. After climbing the wall for a long time, his physical strength has been weakened.

It seems that the reason why Zhai Jianguo was able to hunt so many people, on the one hand, was due to sneak attack, and on the other hand, it may also be because his appearance was too terrifying. When the prey saw him, they were paralyzed from fear and lost their resistance. courage.In fact, if you really want to fight recklessly with him, you may not necessarily lose.

Zhai Jianguo became more and more tired, and once almost fell off the wall.He had to stop temporarily, leaning against the wall and taking a few deep breaths.Then, he suddenly opened his mouthparts, spitting out a silver light from it.

It's spider silk!Feng Si reacted suddenly.This kind of spider silk is very sticky, once it is stuck, it will be finished, not to mention whether it is poisonous, he hurriedly dodges, but ignores the broken mummy remains under his feet.Accidentally, he stepped on the severed arm of a mummy and fell to the ground.Zhai Jianguo quickly spit out the second spider thread, which wrapped around his left arm, and then his whole body rushed forward.

A stench came over his face.Zhai Jianguo pressed on Feng Si's body, pressed his hands and feet with his limbs, pointed his sharp mouthparts viciously at Feng Si's head and stabbed it down.Feng Si tilted his head desperately, and his mouthparts were stuck on the floor. They were stuck seven or eight centimeters deep, and he couldn't pull them out for a while.This was a rare good time, Feng Si didn't have time to think about it, he swung the fruit knife in his right hand with all his strength, and with a "click", the long mouthpart was cut in half horizontally.A foul-smelling black thick liquid shot out from the fracture, and Zhai Jianguo screamed in pain and rolled on the ground non-stop.

Feng Si took a breath, stepped forward and twisted Zhai Jianguo's hands behind his back, pressed his body, and asked in a low voice: "Why did you conspire with the master of Qiyun Temple to deceive me? You told me that I was born The scene at the time, which ones are real and which ones are fake? Or are they all lies?"

Zhai Jianguo was convulsed with pain, and his hideous face was distorted beyond human shape at this moment, but his mouth had mutated into a spider-like piercing-sucking mouthpart, and he couldn't speak normally.He stared at Fons with blood-red eyes full of hatred, and made strange noises that Fons couldn't understand. Suddenly, his face turned pale and he couldn't breathe.

It was only then that Feng Si remembered that Zhai Jianguo had a bad heart, and it seemed that the severe pain from the severed mouthparts had induced the heart attack.He quickly let go of Zhai Jianguo, searched for nitroglycerin in the bedroom, but found that the bottle was empty.Without any medicine, he could only stand by helplessly, watching Zhai Jianguo go from hand and foot spasms to breathing more and more slowly, and finally he could no longer move.

The half-spider, half-human monster, dead.

Feng Si casually grabbed a pillow towel to wipe off his sweat, and then started rummaging through Zhai Jianguo's house.He didn't find anything that might be related to him, but he found some documents related to Zhai Jianguo, ID card, layoff certificate, expired clinic business license, etc., which at least proved what Zhai Jianguo told him My life experience is real.Before Feng Si was born, Zhai Jianguo was indeed just a depressed doctor of traditional Chinese medicine. No matter in the factory health station or in his own clinic, he seemed so mediocre, a kind of harmless and useless marginal existence.But after that night, his life changed dramatically.The house full of god statues and amulets failed to bless him after all.

How many ordinary people who are indifferent to the world are involved in this series of secrets?Feng Si suddenly felt exhausted.He leaned softly on the bed, only feeling that his eyelids were extremely heavy, and the thrilling fight just now seemed to have exhausted all his energy.He was so tired that he fell asleep in this room that smelled of blood and musty, with six corpses on the floor.

He didn't know how long he had slept for this sleep. When he woke up, there was already some vague light perception in front of his eyes, allowing him to judge that he had slept all night and slept until dawn.He quickly opened his eyes, and he was shocked when he opened his eyes - there was a man standing in front of him, a stout man with a vaguely familiar face.

He just got up, and before he stood up, this person swung a punch like lightning, and hit him hard on the cheek, making him lie down again dizzy, with hot nosebleeds coming out of his nose.Feng Si was also calm in the face of danger, regardless of the three-seven-two-one, with a strong waist and abdomen, he used his hips to drive his lying body to jump up vertically, and kicked the opponent with both feet.He used this trick in the past when he was tripped and fell to the ground when he was fighting with someone. It was a rogue version of the "Carp Fighting" in traditional martial arts.

Sure enough, the enemy was hit.He was going to step forward to subdue Feng Si when he was knocked down, but instead he was kicked hard and fell backward involuntarily.However, his movements were not slow, as soon as his back touched the ground, he bounced up again, just in time to meet Feng Si who stood up.Feng Si saw his face clearly this time, and couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

"You are Huiming! Huiming from Qiyun Temple!" Feng Si shouted.

Yes, this is exactly the one-eyed Taoist Huiming that Feng Si saw in Qiyun Temple when he first came to this small northeastern town.Although Huiming is now wearing a secular casual shirt and shorts, with a bun in a nondescript ponytail, like a gangster thug from a domestic crime-solving movie, he still vaguely recognizes the shape of his face, and his one-eyed eye is even more eye-catching.

Huiming wasn't flustered when he was recognized, he moved his shoulders a bit, ready to jump up and fight Feng Si again.Feng Si smiled slightly: "You don't need to do anything. I'll go back with you."

Huiming was stunned, and abruptly closed his fist, a little at a loss.Feng Si spread his hands together: "Aren't you planning to arrest me back to Qiyun Temple? No need to arrest me, I also wanted to pay a visit to your master. Let's go now."

The one-eyed Taoist scratched his scalp, and his eyes were a little dazed. It seemed that he was a simple-minded person who only knew how to follow orders rigidly, but didn't know much about flexibility.After a long while, he managed to utter a few words: "But... I should tie you back..."

Feng Si nodded: "Okay, no problem, let's tie it up. But it's all about meaning, I won't break free anyway."
