Chapter 6: The Ghost Case in the Imperial Capital (Nabaoju)(1/2)
??After we settled our boss, we sneaked over the wall and crawled over. The light at the door was still on, but it would flash a few times from time to time.
What puzzles us is that after jumping in, there is no light from the outside, but when we go in, we can see scattered white lights, which also emit red lights.
Lin Xuan'er frowned and reached out to touch the wall behind her. As soon as she touched her hand, I felt a slight fluctuation of spiritual energy.
"It's a barrier, there's really something wrong!"
She said in a deep voice, pulled out her soft sword from her waist and took the lead and walked up. I followed closely behind. The house was not big, a small yard and three rooms. We were two, and there was an independent room on the side.
After Lin Xuan'er and I went over, we checked the first two rooms one by one. There was nothing inside, so empty that we could see clearly at a glance.
Moreover, there were thick dust and no footprints, so no one should have been here. She and I continued to walk towards the remaining house, which had two lamps hanging in the room, so the light was more sufficient. However, in front of the house, it was so desolate that there was no grass growing, occupying half of the yard.
The closer we got to the hut, the more resentment we felt around us, Lin Xuaner and I couldn't help but be more careful.
When I arrived at the front and back of the hut, she signaled to me. I suddenly kicked open the door. The normal white light was on inside, and it was cleaned very clean, with nothing but a desk.
But there was an exquisite puppet on the desk, looking like a girl.
It seems that it is the opposite of being offered, and there is blood on the desk, so the way of offering must be quite unusual.
Lin Xuan'er frowned. I don't know that thing, but she knows it.
"Who in the end uses Eastern Art in China? Don't you know that this is a serious crime?"
She said angrily, her face turned pale with anger.
"If you are a bad guy, he doesn't care what tricks he uses."
I said helplessly.
"Can…………"
“Cruff…”
“………………………………”
"Where to go"
Lin Xuaner and I spoke almost at the same time, because just as I was talking to her, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and a man in black clothes opened the door with his things in his arms. The moment he saw us, he ran away without saying a word.
Lin Xuan'er and I chased each other out. The man was rushing to climb out of the wall. When we jumped out, there was a lively night market outside and people were no longer sure where to go.
"Damn it, go back quickly and see what he has carried."
I cursed angrily and climbed over the wall to go back. When we returned to our original place, the things he left behind and the dolls on the desk were gone.
My face was very bad. Thinking of what the boss said, based on the figure of the man just now, I could basically judge that it was the woman who climbed over the wall, and the man who took things away from here should be the man.
"Let's go back soon and inform Uncle Wu and the others that someone is bold in using Oriental Art in Kyoto, and he is simply ignorant of his life and death!"
I knew the situation was a bit serious, so I didn't hesitate and hurried out of the yard with Lin Xuan'er and drove back.
Instead of going back to the villa, we turned a corner at the intersection, walked to the left, and drove for about half an hour to enter a quaint street.
I saw three large gilded characters "Jubao Street" written on the high column. There was a stone lion on the left and a totem pole on the right, which was quite strange in shape.
Lin Xuan'er drove the car all the way in, found a random place to stop, and then took me through a narrow aisle. The avenue in front was full of antiques, but there was a house behind her called "Nabaoju".
It was already the fifth day of the day. It was still light, and a pair of red lanterns hung. The door was swept clean and almost spotless.
Lin Xuan'er went up and said nothing, raised her hand and pressed her hand toward the door body. She fisted a few more times, making the wooden door shaking, as if she was about to break it by her punches.
"Who? Isn't sleeping at night? I'm asking for death?" A cursing sound soon sounded from the door, and then the door was pulled open in a corner. A pair of small eyes looked out and said in surprise: "Lin Ni'er? What's your trouble with at night?"
"Uncle Fifth, open the door quickly, something big happened."
Lin Xuan'er said anxiously, seeing that Lin Xuan'er didn't seem to be lying, the man quickly opened the door and let us in. As soon as Lin Xuan'er entered the door, he shouted: "Uncle Wu, Uncle Wu, where are you, the old man?"
“……………………………”
"My little ancestor, it's midnight, why are you here to make a fuss!"
Lin Xuan'er shouted downstairs for a while. A man wearing reading glasses and a figure of about 1.6 meters. The white-haired old man hurried out in a coat. Because he was anxious to get up, he didn't even put on his shoes, so he came downstairs with bare feet.
"If someone in your jurisdiction uses Oriental Art, do you ignore it?"
Lin Xuan'er said arrogantly, looking at how many headaches caused by Uncle Wu.
"My little ancestor, this joke cannot be made, you say you have a crush on my store again, I'll get it for you."
Uncle Wu said in panic, but Lin Xuan'er snorted coldly: "Do you look like I'm joking with you? I tell you that they have been lurking for a long time. If we didn't go to eat and see today, I might have been hiding where they would have been hiding."
"Isn't it really a joke?" Uncle Wu's face suddenly darkened and asked again. Lin Xuan'er nodded, sure that he was really not lying.
"Atao, hurry up and get out of here. Something happened in the jurisdiction!"
Uncle Wu immediately rushed up and shouted, and immediately a young man in his twenty years walked out of the room above, looking at us with cold eyes.
"Oriental Art? It seems that the lesson I taught back then did not give them a memory."
The young man snorted coldly, took out a white paper crane, and then lit it on the paper crane's eyes. The paper crane slowly flew to us, coiled around me and Lin Xuan'er for a few times, and then flew back.
As it coiled, I always felt like something was taken away by it.
After the paper crane flew back to the young man's hand, he looked at Uncle Wu and said, "Master, I'll go and have a look!"
"Well, be careful, if it really doesn't work, please withdraw it."
"A few Japanese devils are not worth fearing"
The young man said proudly, and thrust a magic finger at the paper crane. The paper crane slowly turned red in the air, and then flew out of the Nabaoju. The young man moved his feet and followed him out.
"Don't you want us to help?"
Lin Xuan'er asked excitedly. This girl looked like a little devil, full of enthusiasm for everything.
When Uncle Wu heard her words, he shook his head like a wave drum and quickly said, "Ancestor, please go home quickly. This is Kyoto, not another place. Last time you demolished the East Street. Until now, the leader has to nag for a while when he meets me. This time you are demolishing the North Street, South Street and other things. Do you want my old bones to survive?"
When Uncle Wu said this, he was almost miserable and was about to kneel down for Lin Xuan'er. The man who was called by Lin Xuan'er to Uncle Fifth was secretly covered up and laughed.
Lin Xuan'er looked at Uncle Wu with an awkward look on his face. He was stunned for a long time before he squeezed out a sentence and said, "That time, it was a misunderstanding. I didn't control my strength, so... you know."
"I understand, I understand. If you really don't want to go back, just go upstairs and sit down. Waitao comes back a while and hears him say that it's okay to go home."
Uncle Wu said, pulled his clothes, his body trembled, and he whispered that the weather was so cold, so he turned around and went to the stairs.
Lin Xuan'er gestated as he looked at his back and immediately looked at Uncle Wu who was on the side.
"Uncle Five"
"Lin Nizi, I suddenly remembered that I still haven't seen anything, so I'll take a step first."
Uncle Wu shivered by her eyes, and quickly found an excuse to leave, but was pulled by Lin Xuan'er from behind.
"What are you afraid of? I won't take your Qing Dynasty vase this time. As for guarding me like a wolf?"
"I really don't take it?"
"No, come here and show you the same baby!"
Lin Xuan'er said, then pulled Uncle Wu upstairs and completely threw me aside.
After Uncle Wu went back, he changed his clothes and came out. Seeing that I was still standing below, he smiled at me and said, "Young boy, come up and have a drink with the old man."
I nodded and took Xiao Shi up. There was a living room on the second floor, which was decorated very elegantly. After I went in, Uncle Wu put a small teapot on the stove and sat down opposite me.
"Looking at your face, I have another wealth, I must have just come up from below."
He put a cigarette in it, knocked on the chair with the cigarette pole, looked at me, and pointed to the underground.
When I heard this, I thought to meet an expert, and immediately I wanted to get up, but he stopped me.
"Sit, sit, the old man can't eat people. Since you are Lin Yatou's friend, I won't make things difficult for you, but you young people, don't touch those things, you are very rewarding!"
"Thank you Mr. Wu for your kind words, the younger generation will remember it."
I bent over and bowed, but Uncle Wu shook his head, pointed to his hair and said, "Guess how much I am this year?"
"Old Wu, over fifty years old?"
I said carefully, but he rolled his eyes, "What nonsense? I am only forty years old this year. I just took out a Han tomb on the bank of the Yangtze River last year and was sprayed with a coffin, so I looked very old."
I looked shocked and thought to myself that Uncle Wu looked quite capable, so why was he sprayed this way by a breath of coffin?
"If you don't say it, don't you, what are you doing after you go down?"
He looked at me with a sarcastic smile on his face, and I said to myself, "Old fox, I've been talking for so long, but it turns out that I want me to refute the goods."
"I'm squeezing a good thing, but it's not in my hands anymore." I shrugged helplessly. Now that people are not familiar with me, I can't reveal my things easily.
"Not here with you? Then go?"
"Where is Xuan'er, you know?"
"Oh, this girl, everyone will be cheated by her." Wu Qiutian sighed. At this time, Uncle Fifth brought Lin Xuan'er into the house. Uncle Fifth rushed to Uncle Wu and then showed the little pottery I gave to Lin Xuan'er. Uncle Wu took Xiao Tao and looked around. When he saw the word on Xiao Tao, his body trembled and his eyes immediately turned to me, "Have you been to that tomb?"
“Yeah, I’ve been there”
"Where?"
Uncle Wu suddenly became a little excited and his eyes looked at me became hot.
"On the bank of the Yellow River, but when we came out, we were blown up."
