Chapter 14 Chapter Fourteen

"If I'm not wrong, I should have been hit by a ghost face." Ye Buer said solemnly, "In order to deal with women who seduce their husbands, women in Nanyang will ask a head master to make a ghost face on them. A large sore will grow on the back of the person whose head is lowered, like a grimace, the pain will be unbearable, and the whole body will rot and die in a few days." "It's really ruthless." Bai Xiaozhou frowned and said. "In order to get Meng Xiaozhao back, the mother and daughter of the Meng family hired a master to lower their heads on Burmese women. Women are really scary." Xiao Lin shuddered, "No wonder Meng Xiaozhao has been sick since returning to China, he must have been frightened."

"Maybe he also hit the head drop." Xiao Lin was startled: "No way, the Meng family's mother and daughter are so ruthless that they won't even let their husband and father off?" Bai Xiaozhou pondered for a moment: "It's better to ask him himself. The mother and daughter of the Meng family should still be in the hospital. There is no one else at home. This is a great opportunity." After the two left, Ye Buer hugged the book in his arms tightly, turned his head to look at Qu Siqi who looked pregnant on the bed, a trace of worry floated between his brows, could Niu Pijiang be the mother and daughter of the Meng family?Will Xiaozhou and the others be in danger?

He always felt that things were not that simple. Suddenly, he was suffocated, turned his head, and saw a man dressed like a beggar standing outside the door of the ward, staring at Qu Siqi gloomyly. "Please, may I ask, who are you looking for?" Ye Buer asked cautiously. "Stop meddling in other people's business." The beggar's skin was slightly dark, he looked like a Southeast Asian, and his Mandarin was very blunt. "Otherwise there will be another one." Ye Buer was surprised: "Who are you? You lowered your head?" The beggar didn't answer, turned around and left. Ye Buer rushed up to grab his sleeve, but felt that his hand was empty, and the person had disappeared, leaving only an empty sleeve dangling slowly in his hand.

Ye Buer's heart was cold. Bai Xiaozhou rang the doorbell for a while, but no one answered. She looked around, took out a master key from her pocket, put it into the door opening and fiddled with it for a while, only to hear a click, and the door opened. After all, it was trespassing on a private house, and Xiao Lin couldn't participate in it, so he smoked and waited in a remote place outside the community to keep an eye out.While puffing out smoke rings, he thought, I used to be a policeman and caught thieves back then, I didn’t expect that I would be here today, if the boss finds out, he will have to skin me.

Bai Xiaozhou closed the door, and there was more and more black mist floating on the ceiling. There was too much resentment hidden in this unclean room, which made people feel cold in the bottom of their hearts.There are many rooms in this villa, but she doesn't have to worry about finding which room Meng Xiaozhao is lying in. Last time she noticed that the door at the end of the second floor was always leaking wisps of black mist , full of unwillingness, resentment, hatred and reluctance. She grabbed the doorknob and turned it, but it was not locked.The moment the door was opened, a foul smell rushed towards the face, the curtains were tightly drawn, and the room was very dark. A thin man was lying on the bed, motionless, his body was wrapped in a thick black mist, for a moment Bai Xiaozhou even Doubt he is still alive.

But soon she no longer had any doubts, because the person on the bed moved, and the person slowly let out a breath from his mouth, and a hoarse, low voice came out of his throat: "Water." Bai Xiaozhou looked around and saw that there was a water bottle on the table, so he poured a glass and handed it over.Meng Xiaozhao turned around slowly, with great difficulty, Bai Xiaozhou reached out to help, but happened to see his face. This shock was no small matter, Bai Xiaozhou exclaimed, unable to even hold the water glass, fell on the bed and drenched Meng Xiaozhao all over. Meng Xiaozhao on the bed could no longer be considered a human being, his face was blood red, no, it wasn't that his skin was red, but that he had no skin at all, only bloody muscles and a pair of big white eyes.

"You...are...who?" Meng Xiao looked at her and asked, stared at by those eyes, Bai Xiaozhou felt as if his whole body was immersed in ice water, and every hair stood on end. "I'm a policeman." Whether he believed it or not, Bai Xiaozhou hurriedly asked, "Who made you like this?" Meng Xiaozhao trembled all over, with bloodshot eyes appearing in his eyes: "Injustice, injustice!" "My friend was also lowered." Bai Xiaozhou thought of Qu Siqi who was suffering, and rushed to grab his shoulder, "Tell me, who is it?" Meng Xiaozhao seemed to be frightened and gasped for breath.Bai Xiaozhou hesitated for a moment, endured the nausea, and put his left hand on his face, the skin on his face grew out like magic, he was so shocked that he asked with joy: "You, who are you?" ?”

Bai Xiaozhou withdrew his hand back, and his originally good face began to rot again. Meng Xiaozhao seemed to have fallen from hell to heaven, and jumped up like a flashback, grabbed her and asked, "Why is this happening?" "Tell me who it is, and I'll make you return to your original state." Bai Xiaozhou knew that she didn't have that ability, and if he didn't remove the lowered head on his body, even if he recovered, he would rot again, but she had to lie. Meng Xiaozhao gritted her teeth: "It's Xu Fang, that woman. She lowered her head on me. She wants me to divorce my wife and marry her, otherwise, I will die."

Bai Xiaozhou gasped, the person who lowered the head was dead, and the lowered head could no longer be untied. And Xu Fang is dead. Meng Xiaozhao was doomed to rot and die naked. "How did Xu Fang die?" Bai Xiaozhou asked, Meng Xiaozhao scratched his face in pain, the fast-rotting pain almost made him faint: "It's Kou Kou, I didn't expect Kou Kou to know how to lower her head." It was really Meng Yuko!But why did she kill her roommate?Is there any way to get rid of Meng Xiaozhao's surrender, must collect the corpse oil of the living? "Xu Fang, I have been so kind to you, why did you hurt me so much?" Meng Xiaozhao yelled incoherently, rolling on the bed in pain, "If it wasn't for me, you would have starved to death; Farming in Yunnan! You actually bowed your head to me!"

The cell phone in Bai Xiaozhou's pocket rang, it was a text message from Xiao Lin: They are back. Although there are still many things she doesn't understand, if she doesn't leave, she will have to go to the detention center for a day trip.Bai Xiaozhou turned around and ran out, but Meng Xiaozhao rushed over like a beast, grabbing her arm tightly: "You promised me to cure me." "The person who lowered his head is dead." Bai Xiaozhou looked down on the man who had an affair and shirked responsibility the most in his life. Looking at his face, he said fiercely, "No one can save you except God."

Meng Xiaozhao's eyes were full of despair, a pair of withered hands grabbed Bai Xiaozhou's neck suddenly, and roared like a beast: "Then you will die with me!" Bai Xiaozhou didn't expect him to have such great strength. He was struggling when he suddenly heard the door opening downstairs, feeling anxious, took out the electric baton from his pocket, and stabbed at him. The mother and daughter of the Meng family downstairs were shocked when they heard the heart-piercing screams. They hurried up to the second floor and opened the bedroom door.Seeing Meng Xiaozhao laying motionless on the ground, they thought he had rolled to the ground in pain, and the mother and daughter hurriedly carried him to the bed, Meng Yuko cried and said, "Mom, take Dad to the hospital, he won't be able to hold on anymore." living." Li Lan's eyes were red: "Do you think I don't want to? Seeing him being tortured in pain every day, do you think I'm really that hard-hearted? But now that so many things have happened, what should we say if the police ask? By then you will have 100 I can’t even open my mouth.” Meng Yuko didn't dare to talk back to her mother, she just lowered her head and cried, Li Lan sighed: "Go and get Dulantin and give your father an injection." The daughter turned around and went out. Li Lan turned her head and saw the window was half open, frowned, closed the window without thinking much, and went to get an injection.Bai Xiaozhou hung under the window sill, feeling like he was dying, he stretched his legs desperately to step on the window frame of the window on the first floor, tried several times before finally standing still, and saw that his hands were already drenched with blood. Before she could catch her breath, voices came from the window, which made her fall down in fright and landed in the bushes, her whole body seemed to be falling apart.The people inside the window heard the sound, opened the window to look around, Bai Xiaozhou huddled at the bottom of the window sill, not daring to move.At this time, a yellow-spotted cat suddenly emerged from the bushes. Seeing that it was just a cat, Meng Yuko didn't take it seriously, and closed the window.Bai Xiaozhou heaved a sigh of relief and tiptoed out, just in time to meet Xiao Lin. "You scared me to death." Xiao Lin turned pale, "Did you fall?" Bai Xiaozhou rubbed his slightly bruised arm: "Did you let that cat go?" Xiao Lin wondered, "Where can I find the cat? It's your luck." Bai Xiaozhou frowned slightly, she never believed in her own luck, so who is helping her? At that time, she didn't notice that she left a handprint on the window frame, which was bloody and shocking. "Meng Yukou really knows how to lower her head." Hearing what happened to Bai Xiaozhou, Xiao Lin was a little surprised, "She is a little girl, who did she learn from?" Sitting beside the hospital bed, Bai Xiaozhou looked at Qu Siqi who was still in a coma: "I don't care who she learned from, I just want to know how to get rid of the lowering head on him." "It would be best if someone who surrendered his head could be invited to release the surrender." Ye Buer said, "If not, you have to risk your life to collect all the materials, and whether you can succeed in the end..." Speaking of which, Ye Buer Er lowered his head, his fingers intertwined nervously, "still not fully sure." "Even if we are a little sure, we will do it." Bai Xiaozhou gritted his teeth and said, "What can we do? Tell me!" "The blood of the head-subduing master is indispensable." Ye Buer said, "Secondly, we need to find a head-subduing master whose mana is comparable to hers. , and may even risk your own life.” Bai Xiaozhou frowned: "Where do we go to find the head-subduing master now?" Ye Buer scratched his hair in frustration: "I'm really useless, it would be great if Teacher Long was here, she must know what to do." Bai Xiaozhou walked up and down the ward in a hurry. After walking for a quarter of an hour, she suddenly remembered something: "It seems that there is only one way." "any solution?" "Let the instigator come to surrender." Bai Xiaozhou didn't expect that she would visit Meng's house again so soon. Xiao Lin persuaded her many times to no avail, and finally had to let it go. This time, she had to go to the meeting alone, and no one would come to help her again. After knocking on the door of Meng's house, it was Li Lan who opened it. When she saw her, the lady's face immediately sank: "What are you doing here?" Bai Xiaozhou smiled: "I'm here to apologize for the uninvited visit last time." Li Lan didn't expect her to admit it so readily, and was a little surprised: "You broke into a private house, and just a phone call from me can make you lose your job and go to jail. How dare you come to protest?" "Then why hasn't Mrs. Li called yet?" Li Lan's expression changed, and Bai Xiaozhou said with a smile: "The last time I came to visit, I happened to see some things I shouldn't see and hear some things I shouldn't hear. Presumably Mrs. Li doesn't want these secrets to be spread?" Li Lan stared at her relentlessly, this noble lady's eyes were like snakes, stern and cold, it got into her collar and crawled on her skin, as if she could bite at any time and kill her . Even Bai Xiaozhou was surprised that he was not afraid at all, and just looked at her like that.Li Lan found that her eyes were pushed back, and she realized that she had underestimated this seemingly innocent little girl. She turned slightly sideways: "Come in." Bai Xiaozhou walked into the room and looked upstairs: "Is Mr. Meng okay?" "Thanks to you, I'm not dead yet. I regained consciousness an hour ago, just in time to explain the ins and outs of that uninvited guest clearly." Li Lan looked at her left hand, the corner of her mouth twitched, and there was a hint of viciousness in her eyes. With anger, but she held back, turned and poured her a glass of water.Bai Xiaozhou took it and touched the bottom of the cup. The boiling water was steaming, but the bottom of the cup was cold. Small tricks. "Mrs. Li, I won't go around in circles." Bai Xiaozhou cut to the chase, "I am visiting this time to ask Ling Ai to surrender to a friend of mine." Hearing the word "Jie Jiang", Li Lan's face changed suddenly, and after a moment of uncertainty, he returned to ice-cold: "What are you talking about? My daughter is not a head-surrender master, how can she know how to get rid of surrender?" "So, Mr. Meng lied to me?" Li Lan's face was drawn long: "He is sick and confused." "I have a friend who was murdered in Charing Ai's dormitory, but he was killed." Bai Xiaozhou stood up, came to Li Lan, bent down and stared into her eyes, "He is very important to me. , is a very important person, I can't let him be tortured to death. I hope Ling'ai can do me this little favor, it must not be difficult." Li Lan was slightly surprised, and remained silent for a long time: "Maybe he shouldn't meddle in his own business." "He's just performing his duties." Bai Xiaozhou moved closer, "Don't you want to find the murderer?" Li Lan suddenly let out a long sigh, as if she had become exhausted in an instant, she supported her forehead and said weakly: "I'm tired, please go back, we can't help you." Bai Xiaozhou grabbed her arm violently, Li Lan raised his head, met her eyes, and shuddered all over his body: the person in front of him was no longer that seemingly innocent girl, her face was full of anger, that was A kind of anger that was close to collapse, she was familiar with this expression, when she heard that her husband had other women outside, she also had the same expression, this kind of anger was enough to tear anything to shreds. "Mrs. Li, as I said, that person is very important to me." Black streaks of blood appeared on Bai Xiaozhou's right hand that grabbed her arm. Li Lan pushed her away and said angrily, "What are you doing?" Get out, or I'll call the police." Before she finished speaking, her face changed, she looked down at her arm, tumor-like herpes floated up where Bai Xiaozhou grabbed her, spreading out inch by inch, the pain was like a drill piercing a bone , she screamed, fear like a nightmare: "This, what is this? What did you do to me?" "This is a kind of Miaojiang Gu technique." Of course, it was impossible for Bai Xiaozhou to tell her the secret of his own hands, "Mrs. Li, I have no other choice." "Mom!" Meng Yuko ran down the stairs in a panic and supported her mother. The shocking sores made her tremble all over, "What did you do to my mother? What exactly do you want?" "I only have one request." Bai Xiaozhou felt that he must be very scary at this moment, "For my friend to surrender, I will eliminate the voodoo on her body, and I promise to return you a mother who is intact." When Meng Yuko followed Bai Xiaozhou into the ward, Xiao Lin seemed to have seen a ghost. He pulled Bai Xiaozhou aside and asked in a low voice, "What did you do?" "Move with emotion, understand with reason." Bai Xiaozhou glanced at Meng Yuko, "Yuko is a sensible person, of course she will help." Meng Yuko's face was a little ugly, she closed the door tightly, opened the bag in her hand, and there was a pure white enamel jar under the blue cotton cloth.Bai Xiaozhou remembered that Wang He said that she saw Meng Yukoo meditating while holding the jar in the middle of the night. Meng Yuko muttered something, opened the lid, and a strange smell overflowed, wandering in the closed room.Xiao Lin wanted to see what was in the jar, but was held back by Bai Xiaozhou.Holding the jar, Meng Yuko passed it out with both hands, and leaned towards the bed, chanting more and more urgent spells, a black head emerged from the jar, hissing and spitting out the core, and swam towards Qu Siqi. go. snake! "It's a Burmese neck snake." Ye Buer said in a low voice. As soon as the black snake stretched out half of its body, Meng Yuko's hands suddenly trembled, and Bai Xiaozhou and the others were shocked. They saw her eyes glazed over, her mouth opened wide, breathing violently, like a carp that landed on the shore, her body straightened back When it fell, the enamel jar fell to the ground, and the viscous liquid spilled all over the floor. Xiao Lin rushed over to support her, but Bai Xiaozhou and Ye Buer didn't move, they stared at the enamel pot dumbfounded, their faces livid. In that jar, besides the viscous liquid and snakes, insects, rats and ants, there was actually a baby, a very small baby, its limbs had already grown, but it was not yet a month old, its whole body was scarlet, and it looked like a mass of fresh meat. Although he was used to seeing corpses, Xiao Lin still felt his stomach churning. Meng Yuko's body was stiff and twitching non-stop. He couldn't care less: "Call the doctor!" The doctor opened the door and came in. He was shocked when he saw the filth all over the floor, but after all, his life was at stake, so he decided to rescue Meng Yuko first, and several people hurriedly pushed her into the operating room. I don't know what Xiao Lin said to the hospital. The hospital didn't say anything, but a few policemen came and took the contents of the enamel jar back for testing. After three full hours of rescue, the door of the operating room finally opened, Meng Yuko was pushed out, and Bai Xiaozhou went up to meet her and asked, "Is she alright?" "A stroke." The doctor said, "We've tried our best, but with her current condition, I'm afraid she will be completely paralyzed." "Stroke?" Bai Xiaozhou obviously didn't believe it, "She is so young, how can she say that a stroke is just a stroke." "There are many causes of stroke." The doctor was a little embarrassed. "It's not impossible for young people to work under pressure. Are you her family?" Bai Xiaozhou shook his head. "Hurry up and contact her family. Sigh, to have this disease at such a young age, I'm afraid I'll have to spend the rest of my life in bed." The doctor shook his head and left, and the three of them stood there in a daze. Too much of a coincidence, right? Meng Yuko was pushed into the ward. She stared at her eyes and could still move her eyes, but her muscles were all petrified and she couldn't move.Seeing that there was no one around, Ye Buer leaned down to look at her eyes carefully, and took a light breath: "The eyes are bloodshot and there is a black line. She didn't have a stroke, but a blow to her head—Shi Jiang." "Stone drop?" "The book says that this head-down technique will turn a person's muscles into stone, but the person will not die. She is still conscious and can hear us, but she cannot speak and her limbs cannot move." Ye Buer said with a pale face. , "Someone actually knows this kind of head lowering technique. The book says it has been lost long ago, and this is a very advanced head lowering technique. It is very difficult to succeed." Bai Xiaozhou seemed to have thought of something, and said in surprise: "If you use the oil of living people to make corpse oil, will the success rate be higher?" Ye Buer raised his head and looked at her as if he had seen a ghost: "You, what do you mean?" "Maybe we wrongly blamed her." Bai Xiaozhou clenched his fists, his voice trembling, "Maybe she wasn't the murderer who killed her roommate, nor was she the one who lowered Si Qi's head." When Li Lan saw her daughter, she passed out, managed to wake up, cried and shouted non-stop, crying enough, turned around and pointed at Bai Xiaozhou's nose and cursed: "Why did you kill my daughter? I'm going to complain to your boss!" "Mrs. Li, please calm down." Xiao Lin hurriedly came out to smooth things over, "Ling Ai has been hit by Shi Jiang. This kind of head drop technique is very important and requires extremely high cultivation. Do you know who did it?" Hearing the word "Shi Jiang", Li Lan was startled, and his face was as pale as paper: "Impossible, she is already dead, could it be him?" "Who?" Kobayashi asked quickly.Li Lan gritted her teeth and said, "When Lao Meng was in Myanmar, that woman introduced him to a head-down master, who she said was her master with a high level of cultivation. Could it be that he came to avenge that woman?" Bai Xiaozhou and Ye Buer were concerned, and hurriedly asked, "What does that person look like?" "I haven't seen it, but I heard from Lao Meng that he is sloppy and looks like a beggar." The faces of the two of them changed suddenly, it was really him! Looking at the unpredictable expressions of the two, Li Lan guessed eighty-nine points in his heart, and suddenly changed his face, his eyes wandered, and he murmured: "He is really here, is he really going to kill them all?" Bai Xiaozhou thought to himself: When your mother and daughter killed Xu Fang, didn't you kill them all?If there is no retribution, then God is blind. Ye Buer thought about it for a long time before he plucked up the courage to ask: "Mrs. Li, do you know who taught your daughter the head lowering technique?" Mrs. Li shook her head as if she had been scorched, and quickly shook her head: "No, no, I don't know. She, she didn't tell me." Bai Xiaozhou and Ye Buer glanced at each other. At this point, if you tell who Meng Yuko's master is, won't you be able to invite him out to deal with that difficult Burmese head-down master?This character can make her so scared, it seems not simple! But since she refused to say anything, and it was not easy to force her, Xiao Lin hurried back to the police station to investigate the Burmese head-down master.Seeing Bai Xiaozhou's sunken eye sockets, Ye Buer knew that she must have not slept well for several nights, so he persuaded her to go back and rest.Bai Xiaozhou had a splitting headache, but he didn't try to hold on. When he returned to the bedroom, he fell into a deep sleep as soon as his head touched the bed. Bai Xiaozhou hadn't had a dream for a long time, but she dreamed of the scene that had appeared in her dreams countless times. There was a man running on the road holding a little girl covered in blood, and the world was scarlet. "Master, please, save her." The man knelt in front of the hut and kowtowed heavily, denting the mud in front of the hut.Then, the thatched hut was opened, and the old man with white beard and hair walked out slowly. Looking at the girl who was stained red with blood, there was unconcealable sadness and helplessness in his eyes: "God's will, everything is God's will." The pain, the pain that went deep into the bone marrow, Bai Xiaozhou felt the pain in her hands as if her bones were broken, as if someone was holding a saw and pulling back and forth on her wrist, trying to cut her hands off. Bai Xiaozhou woke up from the dream screaming, looking at his trembling hands, dripping with cold sweat.The pain in the dream was as real as if she had experienced it herself. She rolled up her sleeves and examined her wrist carefully. No matter how she looked, she couldn't find a single crack, so she felt relieved. She has had this dream so many times that even she herself doubts whether it is a real event that she experienced when she was a child.Could that girl be her?The man who ran wildly with her in his arms was his father. Did something happen to me when I was a child, and my grandfather pulled me back from the gate of hell?
