Hailing barren city

Although it wasn't a nightmare, it was still so weird that it sent shivers down Tao Rujiu's spine.In the dream, it was still the grove outside Corpse Soul Town, and it was still a night with dim moonlight.The only difference is that the person who was entangled and moaning in the forest turned into Ling Li and himself.

Ling Li in the dream was as naked as that morning. They overlapped in the dark woods, kissing and caressing each other like a pair of lovers.

The next morning, Tao Rujiu woke up with a blushing face, and the Qimao Fairy had already left, and when he looked down at the jade pendant around his neck, there was only a piece of rope left.The young man prayed that the cat fairy could really help him, and the sound of hanging voices outside the house rose and fell, and although he was still sleepy, he had no choice but to get up and take a shower.

This morning, the troupe members would be concerned when they saw him, but they deliberately didn't ask what happened last night, thinking that Xiao Li had already said hello.Tao Rujiu was very grateful for his thoughtfulness.

It's just that Huakai wasn't in the breakfast queue, presumably he didn't return all night.Everyone seems to be used to it.

Everyone returned to Cuiying Pavilion after breakfast, and it was not yet eight o'clock.Someone was already sitting in the yard.

This person is fierce.

"Tao Rujiu, how do you feel today?"

The man still looked like he was about to smile or not.

"I almost thought you were scared to death yesterday."

This was clearly a joke, but Tao Rujiu had no intention of refuting it.

"I thought I was going to die too, but luckily everything passed."

"Is it really all over?" Ling Li obviously didn't want to let it go, he pressed, "Tell me what you saw yesterday, as the price for my hard work to drag you back."

Tao Rujiu paused for a moment, then remembered Qi Maoxian's order to keep his mouth shut.

"It's probably because of a hangover, and then I caught a cold and had hallucinations. I slept through it last night, and I'm fine when I wake up completely. I will find other opportunities to repay Mr. Ling's favor."

"Oh. Just wake up from the wine."

Even though he said this, the man paused, and suddenly added something without thinking.

"I thought you would have erotic dreams at night."

Poking at the center of his mind for no reason, Tao Rujiu was taken aback, his face flushed red, and at the same time he was surprised why the other party said that suddenly.However, the "spring dream" Ling Li refers to obviously has nothing to do with Tao Rujiu's dream.

"When you were in a coma last night, you kept thinking about flowers blooming, flowers blooming for a while, and the voice was so nasty."

The man's tone was rather displeased.

"What did you see that required you to call Huakai's name so eagerly?"

Forced to recall the experience of last night, the young man's face turned pale again.He squeaked and wanted to answer, but after a while he suddenly hugged his head and squatted down.

"What's wrong? Didn't you say you're sober?"

The man immediately stood up and walked over to him.

"I don't know..." Tao Rujiu's voice became very weak, "When I think about what happened last night, my head hurts."

"let it go."

Seeing Tao Rujiu's pain, sharpness suddenly became gentle.

"Don't make me feel like I'm bullying you again."

He helped Tao sit down as before.

"Speaking of which, I shouldn't take you on the road above. How about this, before you leave Hailing City, I will find time for you to interview. Or if you have other ideas, I will try my best to meet them."

Tao Rujiu was surprised that the shock could create such an opportunity for him.At this time, more and more people came to visit, and Ling Li also got up and left.

Looking at the back of the man going away, the young man put away the pain he had pretended.He didn't mean to make others worry, but he felt more and more unintentional in the face of fierceness.Who in this world has the energy to go head-to-head with a person whom we meet almost every day, and continue to confront them endlessly?

In fact, Ling Li also felt the same in his heart.

That’s right, two days ago, when I was making radish rib soup at home, I cut a big cut on my left index finger. The blood stained the pool at that time, and it took about five minutes to stop the bleeding afterwards.After taking the medicine, the wound was about two centimeters wide, and a piece of flesh was shaved flat, which was very painful. Then the wound was a little inflamed the next day. Although I had taken cephalosporin earlier, I still had some fever, and my typing speed was seriously affected... I would like to apologize to everyone here, jj can go online now without any problem.I will update as soon as possible, Qin Huakai did not appear in front of everyone until noon, although Tao Rujiu was still a little scared, but because Qi Maoxian had promised that the flowers bloom during the day were absolutely normal, so he had no choice but to have the courage to fight with him It's close.Facts have proved that Huakai is still the shy and gentle boy from before, only Tao Rujiu noticed a few times and saw a few dark red spots in his open neckline.

What happened yesterday is not an illusion.

After dinner that night, Qi Maoxian came back with the gossip as promised, and wrapped it in a yellow cloth bag.

"Isn't this a tourist souvenir sold in the Taoist temple in the scenic spot?" Tao Rujiu asked, pointing to the bag.

"Of course, but the Taoist temple actually existed before the film city was built, and it was just renovated on the basis of the original." Qi Maoxian threw the things to the young man, "I have already penetrated part of the spiritual power, don't give it to me again." others to touch."

Tao Rujiu nodded his thanks, and hung the yellow cloth bag back around his neck. "Is this all right?" He wanted to ask more questions, but Qimao Fairy ignored him.In fact, since he put back the amulet, Qimaoxian has turned back into an ordinary big white cat.And the horrible situation never appeared around Tao Rujiu again.

Four days passed quickly, and before Tao Rujiu almost forgot about the ghost encounter, another strange and tense incident happened.

It's a typhoon.

Xiyao is located on the southern coast, which is an area with frequent typhoons.This year is already a bit late. A strong typhoon named Ao Guang was generated in the South Pacific Ocean, and it is said that it is very likely to land in Province F within the next week.Although Sun Zhendao is in charge of the anti-typhoon work, since Ling Li is also in Hailing, it is obviously unreasonable not to involve him.

"Boss Ling still has a nickname here." Xiao Li secretly whispered to Tao Rujiu, "It's the Dragon King. Because every summer when he comes for vacation, the typhoon will follow him. This year is already too late."

Facing the warning of the typhoon, Ling Li is still relaxed, obviously having accumulated a lot of experience.

The weather center forecasted that the typhoon might make landfall before midnight tomorrow. Although it is still some distance away from Xiyao, Hailing City still needs to take precautions.Early this morning, employees began to strengthen roadside trees and houses.

The trees are supported, and the tiled roof is covered with special fiber coverings. There is an artificial beach on one side of the ancient battlefield area, and the doors and windows of the long houses above are directly nailed with wooden boards.The sea was calm before the strong wind, and the employees of Hailing City were still operating in an orderly manner just like the calm sea.

Cui Nong Building is also busier than usual today. The typhoon brought a lot of rain clouds, which were low in the sky. Many local tourists took advantage of the coolness to travel to the city, so the performances of the troupe did not stop because of the approaching typhoon.The back yard was reinforced with ping-pong-pong, and the front yard was still singing.Not enough manpower, even Tao Rujiu went up to the roof with tools.But the so-called "heart to craft", was "invited" back to the ground not long after.

And Ling Li walked in from the back door at some point, with an unknown smile still on the corner of his mouth.

"Are you interested in going to patrol the city with me at night, today and tomorrow. This should be a good material, right?"

After the ghost encounter that day, Ling Li would come to Cuiying Pavilion to sit for a while almost every day. During this time, his relationship with Tao Rujiu also gradually changed. At least now that the man makes such an invitation, he will no longer be looked down upon by Tao Rujiu. Because it is pure provocation.

"Are you going to patrol the city at night?" Tao Rujiu was obviously interested, "What is the main patrol?"

Ling Li replied: "Actually, it is only a special form during the typhoon season. The main job is to check whether there are any casual people staying outside at night, or whether there are any special conditions. They will never let me out when a real typhoon lands."

"Hearing what you said, maybe I should go and have a look." Tao Rujiu nodded.

"But can you really come out at night?" When it comes to the incident that night, apart from a little doubt, Ling Li's heart is more about Tao Rujiu's incomprehension, "Should I send you back again?" Bar?"

Subconsciously touching the yellow kit on his chest, the young man smiled and shook his head.

That night, the two made an appointment to meet at the main entrance of Yanyu Jiangnan.After dinner, Tao Rujiu walked over there alone. There was still a beautiful sunset in the sky, and the wind was not strong.

Ling Li actually drove a sightseeing car by himself, Tao Rujiu was stunned, but thinking that since he can drive a car, this ordinary man with a battery car is naturally no problem. It's just his identity, so it's really interesting to drive a sightseeing car himself. Kind of weird.

As Tao Rujiu thought about it, a smile was already written on his face before he knew it.

"Have you laughed enough? When you've had enough, get in the car. Be careful, I'll drive into the underground palace."

Urged sharply.

The inspection at night was indeed as Ling Li said before, it was just a routine inspection, and the real responsibility for the security work was the security personnel who took turns on duty in Hailing City.A group of four of them drove a tour bus, passed every important location in Hailing City Scenic Area, and recorded the arrival time and other data on the recorder there.

"They are divided into two shifts in the first half of the night and the second half of the night. After the rest of the first half of the night, you can go and interview them. I guarantee that we know more ghost stories than the troupe." Ling Li said.

"But I'm not going to write a complete collection of ghost stories." Tao Rujiu snapped him off.

Hailing City at night is quiet, especially before the typhoon is about to arrive.At the end of the sea in the distance, there is a faint blue light.Ling Li said that it was the shadow of the typhoon.

They drove the tour bus, silently passing through the black scenic spot of Hailing City.Under the dim headlights, the familiar scenery during the day turned into thick or light silhouettes at this moment. Tao Rujiu sat next to Ling Li, and the two of them talked one after another, not knowing what to do. Juezhong had already arrived at the gate of the Netherworld Palace area.

There is a gate in the nether world, and tourist cars cannot enter it.Ling Li just drove the car around the palace wall, occasionally some trees and building roofs appeared on the top of the wavy tile wall, Tao Rujiu even heard the voices of Xiao Li and Brother Zheng talking.

"Do you dare to enter the underground palace again now?" Ling Li parked the car in the open space at the entrance of the Thousand Buddhas District, and lit a cigarette.It was still dark all around, and Tao Rujiu could only see a little golden-red sparks, and smell the smell of tobacco, mixed with the scent of light perfume that men are used to.
