Chapter 4 The fourth time is not a human being

The night was indeed deep. Liu Changjie sat alone in this small and simple living room, and hadn't heard a sound for a long, long time. He put the strange woman on the bed first, and covered her with all the quilts he could find, as if he was afraid that she would catch a cold. Then he lit up all the lamps in the house, even in the kitchen. He is not afraid to face death, nor is he afraid to face darkness.But for these two things, he always has an indescribable disgust and hatred, and always hopes to stay away from them. Now he was trying to gather his thoughts, thinking the whole thing over again——

He was originally an unknown person, and even he himself didn't know how powerful he was. Because he had never tried it, and never wanted to. But "Hu Li" Mr. Hu discovered him, just like discovering a pearl in a clam. Mr. Hu not only has a pair of sharp eyes, but also a brain that is unmatched by anyone. He never missed anyone, never missed anything—his judgment was never once wrong. He didn't really wear a red-tasseled hat, or eat public meals, but he was the number one arrester in the world.The police officers in every state and every prefecture respect him like a god.

Because as long as he is willing to reach out, there is no robbery case that cannot be solved in the world; as long as he is alive, none of the underworld friends who committed the crime can go unpunished. It's a pity that no matter how fast a knife is, it will always be blunt; no matter how strong a person is, there will be a day of old age and sickness. He was finally old and suffering from rheumatism, and he couldn't even walk a step without someone to help him. In the past two or three years since he fell ill, hundreds of huge cases have been committed in the vicinity of the capital—the correct number is three hundred and thirty-two.

Of the more than 300 huge cases, not even one was solved. But these cases must be solved, because the stolen family includes not only princes and dignitaries, but also martial arts tycoons; not only famous families, but also royal family and nobles. Mr. Hu's legs are disabled, but his eyes are not blind. He had seen that these cases were done by one person, and only one person could solve them. The person who committed the case must be Long Wu, and the person who solved the case must also find Liu Changjie. Everyone believed that his judgment this time would not be wrong. So the unknown Liu Changjie suddenly became a legendary figure just like that.

Thinking of this, Liu Changjie himself didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky. Until now, he still doesn't quite understand why Mr. Hu took a fancy to him? It seemed that he would never understand the fox-like old man, just as he would never understand the old man's daughter. He only remembered that he made a friend named Wang Nan a year ago. One day, Wang Nan suddenly suggested that he should visit Mr. Hu. Three months later, Mr. Hu handed over the burden to him.It was not until this evening that he realized how heavy the burden was. Now he has finally concealed the matter of the three months in between from Long Wu.

But what about the future? Could he kill Tang Qing, Shan Fei, Old Daoist, Tie Monk, Li Dagou, and that woman in half an hour?Can I get the mysterious sandalwood box?Can you catch Dragon Five? Only he knew in his heart that he was really not sure at all. What bothered him the most was Hu Yue'er. What kind of woman is she?What is it like to him? Only he himself knows that he is also a human being, an ordinary person with flesh and blood, not a big rock. Although the night is deep, there is still a long time before dawn. What will happen tomorrow?What kind of person will Long Wu call to lead him the way?

Liu Changjie sighed, and only hoped that he could lean on this chair and sleep for a while, forgetting these troubles temporarily. But at this moment, he suddenly heard a strange sound, as if a drizzle suddenly fell and sprinkled on the roof. Then, with a "boom", the whole house suddenly burst into flames, as if a house made of paper was ignited, and once it burned, it was out of control. Of course Liu Changjie will not be burned to death. Even if he were really locked in a red-hot stove, he might have a way to escape. Although this house is not a Hong furnace, it is almost burned down.There was fire on all sides, and nothing could be seen but the flames.

But Liu Changjie had already rushed out. He rushed into the kitchen first, pulled up a large water tank, and then put the water tank on his head. The water in the tank made him completely soaked, but he had already rushed out. No one can imagine how fast he responds, let alone how fast he moves. Except for this burning room, the world is still peaceful. The few clumps of small yellow flowers in the small courtyard look more delicate and pleasing in the flickering firelight. A little girl in yellow clothes, holding a small yellow flower in her hand, was looking at him and giggling. There was actually a carriage parked outside the door, and the horses pulling the carriage were blindfolded. The astonishing fire did not frighten them.

The little girl in yellow clothes flew over like a swallow, opened the car door, and smiled back at him. She didn't say anything. Liu Changjie didn't ask any questions either. She opened the car door, and Liu Changjie sat on it. The flame was still burning, but it was getting farther and farther away from Liuchang Street. The chariots and horses were rushing forward, rushing into the boundless night. dark night. Liu Changjie is not afraid of the dark, but has an indescribable hatred and disgust... The new ones, from socks, inner jackets, to outer robes, are all brand new. Even the tubs for bathing are brand new.

As soon as the carriages and horses stopped outside the manor, Liu Changjie walked in following the little girl, and there was already a basin of bath water waiting for him in the house. The temperature of the water is neither cold nor hot. The little girl pointed to the basin of water, and Liu Changjie took off his clothes and jumped in. She still didn't say a word. He still didn't even ask a word. After Liuchang Street had been washed and wiped clean, and was about to change into this brand new set of clothes, the little girl suddenly came in again, followed by two people, carrying a brand new wooden basin filled with water, The temperature of the water was also just right lukewarm.

The little girl pointed to the basin of water again, Liu Changjie looked at her twice, and finally jumped into the basin of water again, as if she hadn't bathed in three months, and washed herself thoroughly again. He is not the kind of man who is afraid of taking a bath to hurt his vitality. In fact, he has always liked taking a bath. He is not the kind of talkative man, if others don't tell, he usually doesn't ask. But when the little girl asked someone to bring in a basin of bath water for the fourth time, he couldn't hold his breath anymore. His skin was rubbed so red that he looked almost like a freshly peeled carrot. The little girl actually pointed to the basin of bath water again, and asked him to wash it again. Liu Changjie looked at her and suddenly smiled. The little girl laughed too, and she laughed all the time. Liu Changjie suddenly asked, "Is there dog poop on me?" The little girl laughed and said, "No." Liu Changjie: "Is there cat poop?" The little girl said: "No." Liu Changjie: "What's on me?" The little girl rolled her eyeballs, and a blush had already appeared on her round face. There is nothing on him. Liu Changjie: "I have bathed three times, even if there is dog poop on my body, it would have been cleaned by now." The little girl blushed and nodded, but in fact she was not too young anymore. Liu Changjie: "Why do you want me to wash it again?" The little girl said, "I don't know." Liu Changjie was stunned and said, "You don't know either?" The little girl said: "I only know that no matter who wants to see our young lady, they have to wash thoroughly five times from head to toe." So Liu Changjie was washed five times. He put on brand-new clothes, and when he followed the little girl to meet the "Miss", he suddenly found that it was not a difficult thing for a person to take five baths in a row. He felt light all over his body now, and walking down the mirror-smooth corridor was like being in a cloud. At the end of the corridor, there is a door with a bead curtain. The door is ajar and not wide, but the room inside is very spacious, with white walls and shiny wooden floors. In such a large room, there are only one table, one chair, and one mirror. A slender woman in an apricot-yellow blouse was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling bronze mirror, admiring herself. She is indeed a person to admire. Although Liu Changjie didn't see her face directly, he saw her face in the mirror. Even he couldn't deny that this face was indeed beautiful, even flawless and impeccable. This kind of beauty is almost not human beauty, almost like a fairy in a picture. This kind of beauty is so beautiful that people can only appreciate it from a distance, and it is so beautiful that people dare not approach it. So Liuchang Street stopped far away. Of course she also saw him in the mirror, but she didn't look back, she just asked coldly: "Are you Liu Changjie?" "I am." "My surname is Kong, and my name is Kong Lanjun." Her voice was also beautiful, but it carried an indescribable indifference and pride, as if she had already calculated it, no matter who heard her name, they couldn't help but be surprised. There was not even a hint of surprise on Liu Changjie's face. Kong Lanjun suddenly sneered and said, "Although I haven't met you, I already know what kind of person you are." Liu Changjie: "Oh!" Kong Lanjun said: "Long Wu said that you are a very interesting person, and the way you spend money is also very interesting." Liu Changjie: "He's not wrong." Kong Lanjun said: "Lan Tianmeng said that your bones are very hard and can withstand beatings very well." Liu Changjie: "He's not wrong either." Kong Lanjun said: "It's just that all the women who have met you have only three words of criticism for you." Liu Changjie: "Which three words?" Kong Lanjun said: "It's not a human being." Liu Changjie: "They're not wrong either." Kong Lanjun said: "A man who is not a human being will die if he just takes one look at me!" Liu Changjie: "I don't want to come to see you, you asked me to come!" Kong Lanjun's face turned pale, and he said: "I want you to come only because I promised Long Wu, otherwise you would have died there by now." Liu Changjie: "What did you promise Long Wu?" Kong Lanjun said: "I promise him that I will take you to meet someone. Other than that, there is no relationship between you and me at all, so you'd better be honest with me. I know your reputation among women. If you treat me like any other woman, you're dead." Liu Changjie: "I understand." Kong Lanjun sneered, "You better understand." Liu Changjie: "But I also hope you can understand two things." Kong Lan Jun said: "You say." Liu Changjie: "First, I don't want to have anything else to do with you." Kong Lanjun's face turned even paler. Liu Changjie: "Second, although I haven't met you, I already know what kind of person you are." Kong Lanjun couldn't help asking: "What kind of person am I?" Liu Changjie: "You think you are a peacock, that everyone in the world admires you; the only person you admire is yourself." Kong Lanjun's pale face turned blue, he suddenly turned around and stared at him, there seemed to be flames burning in his beautiful eyes. But Liu Changjie continued calmly: "You came to me because of Long Wu; I am willing to come because of Long Wu. There is no other relationship between us, but..." Kong Lanjun said: "How about it?" Liu Changjie: "You shouldn't have set that fire!" Kong Lanjun said: "I shouldn't?" Liu Changjie: "If the fire burns me to death, how can you take me to meet people?" Kong Lanjun sneered and said, "If the fire burns you to death, you are not worthy to see that person at all." Liu Changjie couldn't help asking, "Who is that person?" Kong Lanjun said: "Qiu Hengbo." Liu Changjie was finally taken aback: "Madame Qiushui?" Kong Lanjun nodded: "Autumn Water Lovesickness." Liu Changjie: "You want to take me to see her?" Kong Lanjun said: "I am her friend, and only I can enter her Autumn Water Villa." Liu Changjie: "You are her friend, and she also regards you as a friend, but you are doing things for Long Wu." Kong Lanjun said coldly: "There are no real friends between women." Liu Changjie: "Especially for a woman like you, your only friend is yourself." Kong Lanjun didn't get angry this time, and said calmly: "At least I'm better than her." Liu Changjie: "Oh?" Kong Lanjun said: "She even regards herself as her own enemy." Liu Changjie: "But she asked you to go to her Qiushui Mountain Villa." Kong Lanjun's eyes suddenly revealed a look of hatred and malice, and said lightly: "She let me go, just because she likes to torture me, and she likes to see me being tortured by her." No one could describe the expression on her face, and it was not even described by words like hatred and resentment. There is obviously a relationship that no one else can imagine between these two mysterious, beautiful, and ruthless women. Liu Changjie looked at her, suddenly smiled, and said, "Okay, you can go." Kong Lanjun said: "You..." Liu Changjie: "I don't want to see her, nor do I need to see her." Kong Lan Jun said: "But you must go." Liu Changjie: "Why?" Kong Lanjun said: "Because I don't know where her secret cave is, I can only take you to Qiushui Mountain Villa and let you find it yourself." Liu Changjie's heart sank. He suddenly discovered that this matter was much more complicated and difficult than he had imagined. Kong Lanjun's eyes lit up. As long as she sees other people's painful expressions, her eyes will light up, and she also likes to see others suffer. Liu Changjie finally sighed, and said, "Mrs. Qiushui let you go because she likes to see you being tortured by her. How do you know she is willing to let me go?" Kong Lan Jundao: "Because she knows me very well, she knows that I have always been a person who likes to enjoy, especially like to be served by men, so every time I go, there is a servant who follows." Liu Changjie: "I'm not your slave." Kong Lanjun said: "You are." She stared at him, and in those beautiful eyes, the expression changed again, becoming weirder. Liu Changjie was also staring at her. The two of them just stared at each other, and after an unknown amount of time, Liu Changjie finally let out a long sigh. "Yes I am." Kong Lan said: "Are you my slave?" Liu Changjie: "Yes." Kong Lanjun said: "From today on, you have to follow me like a dog. Whenever I bark, you have to come." Liu Changjie: "Yes." Kong Lanjun said: "Whatever I want you to do, you have to do." Liu Changjie: "Yes." Kong Lanjun said: "No matter what you do for me, you must pay attention to it, and never let your dirty hands touch me. If your right hand touches me, I will cut off your right hand; if you touch me with a finger Me, I'll cut off one of your fingers." Liu Changjie: "Yes." There was still no expression on his face, neither anger nor pain. Kong Lanjun was still staring at him, and after a long time, he sighed softly and said, "It seems that you are indeed not human." Bixia Mountain. mountain beauty.The name of the mountain is also beautiful. After passing the majestic Fenglin Temple, and then crossing the Hongqiao bridge with the wind and lotus in Quyuan, you can see the beautiful scenery of the mountains. There is a faint singing voice in the evening wind: "The summer escaper returns from the cold spring, Boundless cloud brocade in the cool evening sky, The scent of love blows in, Pass Takahashi to buy a boat. " The singing is beautiful, and the wind and lotus are even more beautiful, but they can't compare with the beautiful mountain scenery under the sky full of sunset. On the mountainside of the back mountain, the sky is lazy, the peaks are winding, and the mountain is relatively dangerous. It was originally a place with few tourists, but at this moment a splendid restaurant has been newly built. The building is not high, but more delicate, the paint has just dried, and two carpenters are nailing a golden signboard to the gate.The two peaks on the opposite side stand like swords, which is the most dangerous sword pass on the mountain. Kong Lanjun, wearing narrow sleeves, stood under an ancient cypress behind the mountain peak, pointed at the restaurant, and said, "What do you think of this restaurant?" Liuchang Street: "The house is built well, but the place is wrong." Mr. Kong Lan said: "Oh?" Liu Chang Street: "How can there be business coming to the restaurant in such a place? I'm only worried that it will close in less than three months." Kong Lanjun said: "You don't need to worry about it, I guarantee that this restaurant will be gone before dawn." Liu Changjie: "Can it fly?" Kong Lan Jun said: "No." Liu Changjie: "Since you can't fly, how can you suddenly disappear?" Kong Lanjun said: "Since some people can build houses, others can tear them down." Liu Changjie: "Could it be that this restaurant will be demolished before dawn?" Mr. Kong Lan said: "Yes." Liu Changjie also couldn't help feeling strange: "Why did you demolish the newly built house?" Kong Lanjun said: "Because this house was built to be demolished by others." Liu Changjie is even more strange. It is not uncommon for some people to build houses for real estate, some for living, some for business, and some for housing. But he had never even heard of building a house just to prepare for demolition. Mr. Kong Lan said: "You can't figure it out?" Liu Changjie admitted: "I really can't figure it out." Kong Lanjun said with a sneer, "It turns out that you also have something you can't figure out." She obviously didn't want to break the boring gourd right away, so Liu Changjie didn't want to ask any more. He only knew that Kong Lanjun brought him here not just to make him sulk. She must have a purpose. So there was no need for him to ask, she would always tell it sooner or later. Liu Changjie has always been confident in his judgment. The sun was setting, and the night had gradually covered the mountains. Brilliant lights had been lit in the restaurant, and a group of people suddenly appeared on the rugged mountain road. There are men and women among these people. The men seem to be dressed like master chefs in the waiters and kitchens of restaurants, but the women are all coquettishly dressed big girls who are not too ugly. Kong Lanjun suddenly said: "Do you know what these people are here for?" Liu Changjie: "Come to demolish the house?" Kong Lanjun said: "Just relying on these people to demolish this house for three days and three nights." Liu Changjie also admitted that although demolishing a house is easier than building it, it still requires some skills. Kong Lanjun suddenly asked again: "Can you see what these women do?" Of course Liu Changjie could tell: "Although the line of work they do is not very noble, it has a long history." It is indeed a very ancient profession, and it uses the most primitive capital of women. Kong Lanjun said coldly: "I know you like to look at this kind of woman, so you'd better look at them more now." Liu Changjie: "Could it be that tomorrow morning, all these people will disappear?" Kong Lanjun said lightly: "The house is built to be demolished; people live to prepare for death." Liu Changjie: "You brought me here just to let me watch the house being demolished and these people die?" Kong Lanjun said: "I brought you here to show you the people who demolished the house." Liu Changjie: "Who are they?" Kong Lanjun said: "It's seven people who are going to die in your hands." Liu Changjie finally understood: "Are they all coming tonight?" Mr. Kong Lan said: "Yes." Liu Changjie: "This house was originally built by Mrs. Qiushui. After it was built, ask them to tear it down?" Mr. Kong Lan said: "Yes." Although Liu Changjie understood, he still couldn't help asking: "Why?" Kong Lan Jundao: "Because Qiu Hengbo knows men very well, especially these men. If you keep this kind of men in the cave for too long, they won't be able to hold back even if they don't go crazy. So every once in a while, she It’s going to let them out and let them blow off steam once and for all.” Liu Changjie couldn't help but sigh. After they came, he could imagine what it would be like without looking. He really felt sorry for these women.He himself would rather face seven hungry beasts than deal with those seven people. Kong Lanjun glanced at him from the corner of his eyes, and said coldly: "You don't need to sympathize with them, because if you are not careful, you may die worse than them." Liu Changjie was silent, and after a long time, he asked: "If they come here, who is guarding that place?" Kong Lanjun said: "Qiu Hengbo himself." Liu Changjie: "Qiu Hengbo alone is scarier than the seven of them combined?" Kong Lanjun said: "I don't know how her martial arts are, but I never want to try." Liu Changjie: "So I can only take a look here, and I must not startle them and act rashly, because even if I kill them now, it will be useless." Kong Lanjun nodded and said: "So now I just need you to watch them carefully. When a person is venting to his heart's content, even if he is demolishing a house, he will use all his energy." Liu Changjie: "And then?" Kong Lanjun said: "Then we all go back and wait." Liu Changjie: "What are you waiting for?" Kong Lanjun said: "Wait until tomorrow afternoon, go to Qiushui Mountain Villa." Liu Changjie: "After arriving at Qiushui Villa, shall I try to find the secret cave again?" Kong Lanjun said: "And we must find it within a day and a half." Liu Changjie: "These people have finished venting their anger. When I want to go back, can't I just follow them from behind?" Kong Lan Jun said: "I can't." Liu Changjie stopped talking. He never said anything that was useless. The opposite mountain is brightly lit, but here it is very dark.In the dark sky, a few stars have just risen. The faint starlight lightly shone on Kong Lanjun's face. She is really a beautiful woman. The night is also beautiful. Liu Changjie found a rock and sat down, looking at her, as if he felt a little crazy. Kong Lanjun suddenly said: "I told you to sit down?" Liu Changjie: "You didn't." Kong Lanjun said: "I didn't tell you to sit down, so you have to stand." Liu Changjie stood up again. Kong Lanjun said: "Where is the case I told you to bring?" Liu Changjie: "Yes." Mr. Kong Lan said: "Bring it here." The boxy box is made of Fuzhou lacquered wood, very delicate and elegant. Kong Lanjun said: "Open the lid for me." Lifting the lid, the food box was padded with white silk, and there were four kinds of appetizers, a plate of steamed buns with bamboo knots, and a jug of wine. The wine is the most famous "good wine" in Hangzhou. The four dishes are vinegar fish, bad chicken, Wuxi sauce duck and meat bones. Kong Lanjun said: "Pour the wine for me." Liu Changjie held the flagon with both hands, poured a glass of wine, and suddenly realized that he was also hungry. It's a pity that there is only one wine glass and only one pair of chopsticks, so he can only watch from the side. Kong Lanjun drank two glasses of wine, took a sip of each dish, frowned, put down his chopsticks, and said suddenly: "Pour it out." Liu Changjie: "Dump it? Dump what?" Kong Lanjun said: "Throw away all these things." Liu Changjie: "Why did you dump it?" Kong Lan Jun said: "Because I have already eaten." Liu Changjie: "But I'm still hungry." Kong Lan Jun said: "A person like you, even if you starve for three to five days, you won't starve to death." Liu Changjie: "Since there is something to eat, why go hungry?" Kong Lanjun said coldly: "Because no one can touch the things I have eaten." Liu Changjie looked at her for a long time and said, "You can't touch your body either?" Kong Lan Jun said: "I can't." Liu Changjie: "Has no one ever touched you?" Kong Lanjun lowered his face and said, "That's my business, you have nothing to do with it." Liu Changjie: "But you want to take care of my affairs?" Kong Lanjun said: "Not bad." Liu Changjie: "If you tell me to stand, I have to stand; if you tell me to watch, I have to watch?" Kong Lanjun said: "Not bad." Liu Changjie: "If you don't allow me to follow you, I can't go; if you don't allow me to touch you, I can't touch you?" Kong Lanjun said: "Not bad." Liu Changjie looked at her for a long time, then suddenly smiled. Kong Lanjun said coldly: "When I forbid you to laugh, you are not allowed to laugh either." Liu Changjie: "Because I'm your slave?" Kong Lanjun said: "You finally understand now." Liu Changjie: "It's a pity that you don't understand one thing." Kong Lan said: "What's the matter?" Liu Changjie: "I am also a human being. I always like to use my own way of doing things, for example..." Kong Lanjun said: "For example, what are you talking about?" Liu Changjie: "If I want to drink, I will drink." He actually picked up the jug of wine and drank it to his mouth. Kong Lanjun's face turned pale with anger, he kept sneering, and said: "It seems that you want to die already." Liu Changjie smiled and said, "I don't want to die at all, I just want to touch you." Kong Lanjun said angrily: "How dare you!" Liu Changjie: "I dare not?" His hand suddenly stretched out to touch Kong Lanjun. Of course Kong Lanjun's reaction was not slow, "Peacock Fairy" was originally one of the most famous female masters in the martial arts. She was not without reason to be proud. As soon as Liu Changjie stretched out her hand, her hand was raised obliquely, and her ten fingertips were like ten sharp swords, slashing towards Liu Changjie's pulse gate like lightning. Of course her moves are fast, and her moves are flexible, and there are obviously infinite changes hidden in it. It's a pity that she didn't use even one move in all the changes. Liu Changjie's wrist seemed to be broken suddenly, and his hands bent and twisted from the most unimaginable direction, and suddenly they had pinched Kong Lanjun's veins. Kong Lanjun never imagined that a person's hands could change in such a way. Under the shock, he didn't have time to think about how to respond. He just felt that his whole body had been lifted up, flipped and turned in the air, and he had been caught by Liu Chang. The street is pressed against the stone. Liu Changjie said leisurely: "Can you guess what I want to do now?" Kong Lanjun couldn't guess. She could hardly have dreamed of it. Liu Changjie: "Now I just want to take off your pants and spank your ass." Kong Lanjun was so frightened that his voice became hoarse: "You... how dare you?" She thought that Liu Changjie would never dare, and she never dreamed that a man would dare to deal with her like this. It's a pity that she forgot a sentence she herself said: "This person is not human at all." Only three sounds of "pat, clap, clap" were heard, and Liu Changjie actually slapped her on the buttocks three times. He was not beaten hard, but Kong Lanjun was beaten so hard that he couldn't even move. Liu Changjie said with a smile: "Actually, I can do one or two other things now, but it's a pity that I don't have any interest." He looked up to the sky and laughed twice, but he just walked away without even looking at her. Although Kong Lanjun gritted his teeth hard, he couldn't help but shed tears. Suddenly he jumped up and said loudly, "Liu Changjie, you bastard, I will kill you one day, you...you are not human at all." Liu Chang didn't return on the street, and said flatly: "I wasn't in the first place."
