Nightcrawler: 20 Years of Peaceful Demons

Chapter 340 The eve of the South China Sea Guanyin Puja

Speaking of "leprosy patients", the first thing that comes to my mind is Hu Che, a young leprosy boy I met in the countryside of Jiangzhou, and his rotten and scabbed skin.

Because there is only one leprosy patient I know.

However, Hu Che took the Yaodan of the Guardian of the Baxia Secret Realm at the beginning, and he has been completely reborn, and he is no longer what he was before.

But even so, when I think of the young man's scheming, I shudder a little.

What kind of hardships did he have to go through to make him have such a deep and cold personality?

No one knows.

Ma Xiaolong's friend did not disclose much information to him, but with the improvement of medical conditions, leprosy has gradually disappeared from people's vision, and such patients and carriers of the virus are very few.

In this way, in fact, the scope of screening for the perpetrators has been greatly narrowed.

Ma Xiaolong told us that he is already looking for someone to go to the hospital for an investigation, and he will tell us when the results are available.

I stretched my muscles and bones in the yard and felt steaming. I went back to the room and took a shower. I found that Suzaku hadn't gotten up yet, so I went to knock on the door of her room, wondering if I had a bad attitude towards her yesterday. He was not angry with me, but he knocked on the door for a long time without opening the door.

I twisted the door lock and pushed in, only to find that no one was in the room.

I was a little surprised. When I came out, I happened to meet Ma Yi'ao who came over and called me to have breakfast. I asked him, did you see Suzaku?
He shook his head and said he wasn't in the room?
I am right.

Ma Yi'ao went back to the room, dialed the phone, and asked the front desk if our room card had been used for consumption in the breakfast room. The other party checked for a while and told us that he hadn't.

I'm a little anxious now, Ma Yi'ao comforted me, saying that it's okay, maybe she will take a stroll around the hotel by herself, or go to the beach?
I said that I said something to her yesterday, and she was a little unhappy at that time. When we came back, we were arguing in the living room, and she was also very unhappy. She went back to the room early, and there was no one in sight early this morning, maybe ran away from home...

Ma Yi'ao couldn't help but laughed, and said, do you really think of her as a child?Even if she went out, so what?As far as her strength is concerned, if one beats the three of us, who can bully her?
Despite what he said, I was still worried.

If it's Qin Liluo, that's fine. After all, she has her own independent and mature thinking, and she won't do unexpected things. But although Suzaku has lived long enough, she has a child's temper, and she does things all by her emotions. Maybe something bad will happen.

Ma Yi'ao comforted me, and went to the front desk to ask.

This is the hotel of Ma Xiaolong's family, and the front desk also knows that we are all guests of their young owner, so we dare not neglect, because there was no monitoring system in 2000, so we can only arrange two security guards to go around with us to find someone to ask, and then He hurriedly called again and informed Ma Xiaolong.

When Ma Xiaolong rushed over after hearing the news, we had already learned from the security guard at the gate that Suzaku left the villa resort hotel early in the morning.

As for where it went, this is unknown.

However, the security guard said that the lady was in a normal mood. When he saluted, he even responded with a smile, and he didn't seem to be preoccupied.

Hearing this news, I felt a little relieved in my heart.

After Ma Xiaolong learned the whole story, he said to me: "It may be that everyone has been with her these days, and she is under a lot of pressure, so she may want to go for a walk by herself to relax, or to find her by herself. It's something you want, so don't worry about it for the time being, give her some time and space; as for the hotel, I will explain to the front desk and the security guard, as soon as she comes back, I will notify you and me immediately."

When Ma Xiaolong was in the advanced research class, he didn't show his mountains and dew his water, but in his own place, he showed enough maturity and calmness.

His arrangement was very appropriate, and what he said made sense. After thinking about it for a while, I felt that it was indeed the case, so I didn't feel anxious anymore.

Then Ma Xiaolong followed us to the villa, chatted with us about the progress of the case and some of his own thoughts in the living room, and then he asked us, will you go to the Nanhai Guanyin Fa Conference tomorrow?

Ma Yi'ao asked him, and Ma Xiaolong said he was going.

The South China Sea Avalokitesvara Dharma Conference is held every four years and lasts for three days, because many experts in the industry will come, and many precious materials and instruments will appear, and there will even be public auctions of cultivation methods, all of which are well worth a visit Look, what's more, the gathering of so many practitioners and industry exchanges will create many opportunities. Even the two murder cases this time may lead to clues there.

Summing up many reasons, Ma Xiaolong is going to go there.

It turned out to be the case.

Listening to what Ma Xiaolong said, the South China Sea Avalokitesvara Puja has a lot to look forward to, but for Ma Yi'ao and I, we who are "ridden by lawsuits" go to such a public place, even Arima Yi'ao Ao miraculous makeup technique, but there are still many risks after all.

If you meet one or two enemies, maybe things will change from simple to complicated.

So whether it's me or Ma Yi'ao, there is some hesitation.

We chatted for a while, and we ate together at noon. We also asked the chef of the hotel to prepare the dishes and bring them to the villa.

Halfway through the meal, Ma Xiaofeng also rushed over. She came in a hurry, and was so hungry that she didn't care.

Ma Xiaolong rested his forehead and sighed, saying that you are like this, how can you get married in the future?

These two brothers and sisters have a good relationship, and we are used to bickering when they get together, and Ma Xiaofeng waved his fist indifferently, saying who said I want to get married, what's the matter?Are you trying to drive me away, afraid that I won't be able to divide the property with you?
Ma Xiaolong choked on a word to her and was speechless, while Ma Xiaofeng was so busy that he was about to leave after eating.

Before leaving, he said to us: "By the way, I forgot to tell you that an old acquaintance is coming over at night."

I'm a little surprised, what old acquaintances?
Ma Xiaofeng blinked at me, smiled, and said, let's keep it a secret for now, otherwise there will be no sense of mystery.

After she finished speaking, she left mysteriously, leaving us all dumbfounded. You look at me and I look at you, but you don't know who she is talking about. In the afternoon, Huang Daxian actually found us. a villa.

Is he the old acquaintance that Ma Xiaofeng mentioned?
However, how did Ma Xiaofeng know Huang Daxian?

After chatting with everyone, they realized that Huang Daxian was not the mysterious person that Ma Xiaofeng said, and the reason why he came here was because he happened to be staying in this resort hotel.

He also came with Nangeng Miao Wang and a few followers, but Miao Wang went to visit some friends in Yazhou with his men, and he met Amu on the way, so he came to the door.

We chatted for a while, and then we realized that Huang Daxian also came early, so as not to be late for the Nanhai Guanyin Puja tomorrow.

He kindly invited us to go together tomorrow, and when he heard our scruples, he couldn't help laughing, took out two beeswax pills from his bag, unscrewed the pills, and took out a thin skin from inside .

After unfolding, it turned out to be a human skin mask.

Huang Daxian told us that it was handed down from the Yang family in Qianxi, a thousand-faced man in the Republic of China. After soaking this thing in water and wearing it, after a simple treatment, it is like changing a face, so lifelike that no one can see it.

The only pity is that there are not many such fine products in the world, and the craftsmanship has been lost.

Fortunately, he had just a few of them on hand.

Huang Daxian showed us on the spot, soaking the wrinkled skin in the sink. After two or three minutes, the thing began to swell like black fungus with soaked hair, and then he covered it on my face .

I felt a little uncomfortable at first, and then found that the material is very transparent, and the sweat can be discharged together. After the initial discomfort period, I didn't feel anything.

Then when I looked in the mirror, I saw a completely unfamiliar face.

The man had a small round face, thick and short eyebrows and raised eyebrows, and his appearance was very funny. A cross talk actor who became very popular in "Song of the Ring".

There is no difference at all between the mask and the skin.

I stretched out my hand to pinch my face, and found that it was as if it had grown on my face, and it couldn't be pulled off at all.

Huang Daxian told us that when you put this thing on, you only need to soak your hair in water, but after you put it on, you need to use some vegetable oil to apply it on the edge of the face for a few minutes, and then you can use it little by little. tear it off, otherwise, it will grow on the face.

Such miraculous things are really eye-opening.

Ma Yi'ao knew it was a good thing, so he hurriedly humbled and said no, but Huang Daxian said it's okay, my old face has nothing to hide, it's just right for you to use.

He couldn't refuse, and then showed us how to take off the mask. After finishing his work, he hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Seeing the back of Huang Daxian leaving, Ma Yi'ao was a little moved, saying that this old man is really a good friend, and he regards us as his own juniors.

When I heard this, I couldn't help but think of what Huang Daxian told me a few days ago.

He asked me to show my respect to Farewell Island and let it go.

Maybe that's why he's so generous?
With the human skin mask in hand, we are going to go to the South China Sea Avalokitesvara Assembly tomorrow to take a look, and in the evening, Ma Xiaolong and Ma Xiaofeng both came.

We went up to the reception and chatted for a while. Suddenly, someone patted me on the shoulder, and someone said, "Hou Mo, where is Qin Liluo from your family? Where is he?"
