Bad luck

Chapter 82

The crime happened around three o'clock in the morning. Yang Yifan, who came back late, probably drank too much alcohol, and his pace was a bit staggering.

When he got to the crime scene, Yang Yifan suddenly ran towards the fence excitedly. He tried to climb over the fence, but the leather shoes under his feet suddenly slipped, and his body fell down suddenly halfway through the climb.

"Ah—" Xiaomi couldn't help screaming, Yang Yifan's body didn't follow Xiaomi's screams until the savior came.

His throat was instantly pierced by a sharp puncture, and blood spurted out in an instant.

Yang Yifan's eyes widened, then slowly drooped, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a shallow smile.

"Oh my god...it's too scary." Zou Ping touched his neck subconsciously, "I think I used to jump over walls when I was a child, and I really thank myself for being lucky enough not to encounter such a thing."

"Stop talking, I've got goosebumps." Xiaomi patted Zou Ping's back, as if he still had lingering fears.

Chi Jingyuan turned the monitoring screen backwards, approached the video, and observed it carefully.

Brother Liu just came back, saw this scene, shook his head, "What's the use of you really."

Zou Ping and Xiaomi Tan Tanshou said, "We are ordinary people, there is no way to be as perverted as Chi Jingyuan."

Chi Jingyuan noticed that Yang Yifan didn't run towards the fence suddenly, it was more like he saw something he dreamed of, just like the scene often seen in the station, the couple who reunited after a long time would involuntarily run towards each other.

In other words, Yang Yifan should have hallucinations because of that incense, which led to this tragedy.

Chi Jingyuan is more worried now, since Yang Yifan received it by express, it is very likely that someone specially sells this kind of incense, which means that Yang Yifan's matter will not be an exception.

After Chi Jingyuan shared his conjecture with Brother Liu, Brother Liu showed a stern expression, "I see, we will find out as soon as possible. Chi Jingyuan, thank you."

Chi Jingyuan waved his hand and said, "It's one less victim, so I can't say thank you."

After the test results of the incense ash came out, no harmful ingredients were found in it, nor was it a new type of drug as Chi Jingyuan guessed.

Chi Jingyuan had no choice but to call Xia Yunzhou, but unexpectedly found out that Xia Yunzhou was in City A now.

He and Wu Di came back yesterday because the situation of Master Ma's daughter has changed.

Thanks to the Purifying Mantra, Ma Shasha's condition was under control. Master Ma and his wife thought that her condition had improved, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. They never thought that she would sneak out in the middle of the night.

"She now insists that Tang Tang is her lover in her previous life. She runs to follow Tang Tang every day."

"What?" Chi Jingyuan never thought that this matter would have something to do with Tang Tang.

"Where are you? I'll be there right away." Chi Jingyuan waved quickly and stopped a taxi.

"In Huxin Park, Ma Shasha is desperately unwilling to leave." Xia Yunzhou said.

When Chi Jingyuan arrived at Huxin Park, he saw Xia Yunzhou at a glance, and he walked up quickly, "How is it?"

"I asked Tang Tang to stabilize her temporarily, but this is not the way."

As soon as Chi Jingyuan passed by, he saw Tang Tang looking at him with a begging expression on his face.

Ma Shasha gave Chi Jingyuan a sharp look, as if she regarded Chi Jingyuan as a rival in love.

Wu Di patted Chi Jingyuan on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, everyone thinks she is her rival in love now."

"Sasha, go back with your parents, you have already caused trouble for this young lady." Master Ma comforted.

Ma Shasha grabbed Tang Tang's clothes and resisted excitedly: "Impossible! You must have come to separate Tangtang and me! I have failed her in my previous life, and I will never fail her again in this life. Take it as my daughter."

Tang Tang: "..."

Inexplicably, there is another lover from the previous life, and it seems that it is not as beautiful as it is shown in the TV series.

She looked at Ma Shasha as if she was looking at a mental patient.

"Ma Shasha, did you also buy incense?" Chi Jingyuan stepped forward and asked with sharp eyes.

Ma Shasha was watched by him, she grabbed Tang Tang's clothes with some fear, and leaned directly on Tang Tang.

"I...why should I tell you." Ma Shasha's voice trembled, but she refused to tell the truth.

Chi Jingyuan glanced at her indifferently, and said indifferently: "You can choose not to tell, but I want to tell you that on October [-], a deceased person appeared on Tianwan Road, and it was because of this incense that he lost his mind and his throat was pierced to death."

His dark eyes stared coldly at Ma Shasha, "You are likely to be the next victim."

"Ah—" Ma Shasha screamed, and was frightened and cried by Chi Jingyuan.

"Sasha, Sasha!" Master Ma and his wife circled around Ma Shasha anxiously.

Master Ma wanted to ask what Chi Jingyuan meant by the next victim, but Master Ma's wife subconsciously wanted to scold Chi Jingyuan for threatening her daughter, but just opened her mouth, before she could make a sound, she turned to her. Seeing Chi Jingyuan's falcon-like eyes, he was so frightened that he closed his mouth.

"Fuck, Chi Jingyuan is so fucking handsome." Wu Di whispered in Xia Yunzhou's ear, seeing Ma Shasha's mother was so frightened that she didn't dare to fart.

Chi Jingyuan gave Tang Tang a look, and Tang Tang comforted Ma Shasha knowingly, "Sasha, tell Brother Chi quickly, don't you want to continue your relationship with me? If something happens to you, we two Wouldn't it be missed."

When Ma Shasha heard this, she became anxious immediately. That's right, if she really died and Tang Tang was still alive, wouldn't they have gone the other way?

"I...I...yes, I also bought that incense." Ma Shasha grabbed her skirt tightly and explained the matter.

"Resurrection incense is very popular. It is said that as long as you use it, you can see your past life. I didn't believe it at first, but then someone in our class bought it. She said she saw that she was a concubine in the palace in her previous life. died early."

"At first, I thought she was talking nonsense. Later, I heard more and more people playing this game. Once...my classmate gave me one, so I tried it." Ma Shasha didn't blink her eyes Staring at Tang Tang, he saw Tang Tang terrified.

"And then I saw you."

"It was the first time I used the incense of revival. It was very short time. Because of my curiosity, I endured it for a few days, and finally ran to buy the incense of revival. The more I used it, the clearer my dreams became."

"Will you be addicted?" Chi Jingyuan asked.

Ma Shasha froze for a moment, she shook her head, "I don't know... I don't know if it makes me want to use it again and again because I want to know what's next, or simply because this fragrance is addictive."

Xia Yunzhou and the others can understand Ma Shasha's mentality. It's like watching a TV series. If you are hung up on your appetite, you will scratch your heart and lungs, wanting to know the plot behind it, not to mention that it has something to do with yourself.

"Do you still have the Resurrection Incense?" Xia Yunzhou asked Ma Shasha.

"Yes..." Because her father invited Xia Yunzhou and the others to come, she didn't have a chance to use the Huan Huan Xiang later.

Ma Shasha took them home to get the Resurrection Incense, Tang Tang was forced to follow, because Ma Shasha refused to let her go, Ma Shasha's parents kept apologizing to Tang Tang, Tang Tang couldn't say anything, let alone help Chi Jingyuan and the others solved the case, so cool.

"I've heard about this fragrance before, and it's quite popular. I also asked Sister Tiantian, and she said it was all fake, so I didn't pay attention to it anymore." Tang Tang was walking on the road, and suddenly remembered this matter , It’s been a while since she started chasing "Fate of Two Worlds" at the time when she was obsessed.

"Have you asked Tian Tian?" Xia Yunzhou himself had never heard of Huan Hun Xiang, but Tian Tian had.

"That's right, I asked Sister Tiantian if there is any kind of fragrance in this world that can let people see their past lives. Sister Tiantian said that if there is such a good thing, she must have bought it to play with." Tang Tang opened WeChat and showed Xia Yunzhou the chat records between himself and Tian Tian.

Xia Yunzhou: "..." As expected, Tian Tian is the one who is unreliable. She actually wants to play with this kind of spying thing.

"You haven't heard of this thing?" Chi Jingyuan faintly heard this meaning from their conversation.

"Well, this is the first time I heard about it." Xia Yunzhou said, "I have to ask my grandfather, maybe he has heard of it."

Chi Jingyuan was a little surprised that he had never even heard of Xia Yunzhou. Xia Yunzhou called Tian Tian and asked her and Su Bian to look up "Han Hun Xiang".

Chi Jingyuan contacted Brother Liu and told Brother Liu about the matter. Brother Liu immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, "I'll investigate immediately."

Now it is not only necessary to find out what is going on with this revived incense, but also to find out its source, and to recover the revived incense on the market, so that there will be no more victims.

Ma Shasha took out a box from the closet and handed the box to Chi Jingyuan, "This is it."

Huanhun incense looks like an ordinary cone incense, and there is nothing special about it.

"Is there any more incense ash?" Chi Jingyuan asked.

Ma Shasha shook her head, "It's all poured out."

Chi Jingyuan picked up a cone of incense and smelled it. Although it didn't ignite, he could still smell the same smell as the puddle of incense ash in Yang Yifan's room.

Xia Yunzhou packed the Resurrection Incense in a bag, "We will take this incense away."

"You must keep reciting the Mantra every day to avoid losing your mind." Xia Yunzhou urged.

In fact, after hearing what Chi Jingyuan said that someone died because of this incense, Ma Shasha was scared, how dare she mess up the incense again.

Tang Tang naturally followed Chi Jingyuan and the others to leave, but Ma Shasha immediately grabbed her hand and shook her head at her, "Tangtang, don't go."

Tang Tang looked at Chi Jingyuan and the others in embarrassment, what should she do?

Chi Jingyuan walked over and said in a cold tone: "Since this incense can make people hallucinate and kill people, how can you believe what it makes you see?"

Ma Shasha froze in place for an instant, that's right... Since this thing can kill people, how can it prove that what it sees is true.

She was at a loss, as if her previous persistence had become a joke at this moment, what should she do?

"What's more, even if it's true, do you think you really like Tang Tang? Are you gay?"

Chi Jingyuan pressed on with each question, making Ma Shasha, a girl who was only in high school, defeated in an instant.

As soon as the word "gay" was pasted on her forehead, she immediately knew how powerful it was. In such a big environment, how much trouble the label "gay" would cause her, her former classmates and teachers might all Because this treats her coldly, her parents will also be laughed at. This is the reality.

Ma Shasha's eyes widened, and she slammed Tang Tang's hand away, but she didn't dare.

……

"Resurrection incense?" Qi Yitang paused for a moment with the hand holding the teacup, as if thinking of something.

"I said why it looks familiar, so it's this." Qi Yitang took a sip of tea before putting the teacup on the table.

"Second uncle?" Chi Jingyuan walked to him and sat down.

"I've seen it before. I won a bet with someone before and lost a box to me." Qi Yitang called Chen Xuan, "Go and see, I remember it's in the warehouse."

"Yes."

Qi Yitang laughed and said: "No wonder I can't remember this incident, it has been hundreds of years."

Hearing his unit of measurement, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help asking, "Second Uncle, how old are you?"

Qi Yitang's eyes sparkled, and with a smile, he asked, "What? Do you think Second Uncle is too old?"

Chi Jingyuan quickly waved his hand, "No, Second Uncle doesn't want to say that I don't ask more questions."

"Look at you, you're getting angry." Qi Yitang raised her hand and pinched Chi Jingyuan's face, "You're really getting more and more delicate."

Chi Jingyuan wanted to refute that he didn't mean to be angry, and he wasn't coquettish, he just simply felt that he wouldn't ask Qi Yitang what he didn't want to say, that's boring.

"If you ask me how many years I lived after death, I can't remember exactly." Qi Yitang calculated carefully, and the corner of her mouth slightly raised, "Exactly 1000 years."

For 1000 years, Chi Jingyuan looked at him blankly, Qi Yitang has a 1000-year miniature on his body.

"What about before life?" Chi Jingyuan couldn't control himself and asked, he couldn't lie to himself that he didn't want to know Qi Yitang at all, but he also knew that since Qi Yitang was a ghost, he had lived for 1000 years, that's enough to show, Qi Yitang has an obsession in his heart that he still can't let go of. If he asks, he may violate Qi Yitang's big taboo.

"Before I was alive." Qi Yitang stared out the window, his eyes were dim, "I can't remember, it's too long ago."

"That's right, it happened 1000 years ago." Chi Jingyuan said understandingly.

But for some reason, he instinctively felt that Qi Yitang remembered, but he just didn't want to tell him.

Chen Xuan brought the Resurrection Incense, and Chi Jingyuan opened it to see that there were sticks of incense sticks inside, only six sticks in total.

This smell is inexplicably familiar.Probably because he has smelled too many fragrances recently, he has become a little confused, and for a while he couldn't tell where he smelled it.

"Is this incense? What about this one?" Chi Jingyuan took out the incense from Ma Shasha's house and showed it to Qi Yitang.

Qi Yitang just glanced at it, and then said firmly: "It's fake, it can't be said to be completely fake, it should be regarded as a semi-finished product."

"Then the past life it shows is real?" Chi Jingyuan asked.

Qi Yitang said: "Fake, this is the only thing that can really make people see what happened before."

Qi Yitang pointed to the six incense sticks.

Chi Jingyuan understood that Ma Shasha didn't know Tang Tang before, why did she dream that Tang Tang was her lover in her previous life?

With a series of questions in mind, Chi Jingyuan went to bed early, planning to go to the office to discuss with Xia Yunzhou and the others tomorrow morning.

"Kill!"

"I can't retreat! Hold on to me!"

Chi Jingyuan had a dream again. In the dream, the soldiers were in chaos, the oars were bleeding, and the battlefield was littered with corpses.

"General, the city gate can no longer be guarded, retreat!"

In the dream, there was a man who looked exactly like Chi Jingyuan, wearing armor and holding a spear in his hand, that was Zhige.

His black hair was tied into a bun, and his handsome face looked even more icy. His battle armor was stained with blood, and he didn't know whether it was the enemy's or his own.

"I can't retreat, even if I die, reinforcements will definitely come." His eyes were deep and determined.

"General! Reinforcements... won't come, His Majesty has already given up on us!" The lieutenant general, a seven-foot man, also had red eyes.

Everyone resigned to their fate, they knew that reinforcements would not come.He was the only one who still firmly believed, "Reinforcements will come."

Looking at this scene, Chi Jingyuan's heart trembled. At this moment, he suddenly understood that this person was either someone else or himself.

He could empathize with that emotion.

In the dream, Chi Jingyuan was wiping the spear, and his resolute eyes suddenly softened. He hugged the spear in his arms and leaned on the gun with his head sideways, as if embracing his closest lover.

In an instant, Chi Jingyuan's previous dream flashed through Chi Jingyuan's mind, dreaming of those two lingering figures in the depths of the winding path under the bright moon.

"Report-"

"General, the imperial decree has arrived."

Chi Jingyuan lifted his robe and knelt down.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor's Edict said: General Chi Jingyuan led the army ineffectively and neglected his duties, causing the city to be lost and the people to live in dire straits. His crime should be punished. Nianqing has served the country for many years. He gave a glass of poisoned wine and gave him the whole body. To quell public grievances. This is it."

"General Chi, accept the order." The official who issued the imperial order looked at Chi Jingyuan with contempt in his eyes.

"Minister...obey the decree." Chi Jingyuan lowered his head, covered up his tear-stricken expression, and caught the imperial decree with both hands.

Chi Jingyuan was watching with a thousand emotions, when the dream suddenly changed, above the court hall, sitting on a dragon chair admired by everyone, there was a person wearing a dragon robe, with eyes like frost and snow.

Chi Jingyuan stood under the court hall, looking up at the man on the dragon chair, far away.

"Ha..." Sticky sweat wet Chi Jingyuan's back, and he woke up from his sleep with heavy panting.

With the dawn light outside the window, Chi Jingyuan sat up and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

It's all cold sweat.

Everything in the dream was vivid, and Chi Jingyuan's hands and feet were a little weak. He hadn't experienced this kind of frightened hands and feet for a long time. The last time was when his comrade-in-arms died.

He sat on the bed for about half an hour, until the bird chirping outside the window brought him back to his senses, and then Chi Jingyuan got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

……

"Master Jingyuan has already left." Liu Mingzhu said when she saw Qi Yitang who was stepping over.

Qi Yitang frowned slightly, "Has he had breakfast?"

Liu Mingzhu shook her head and said, "No, he said he had no appetite this morning."

"Second Master, did you quarrel?"

Qi Yitang thought about it carefully, the two of them didn't quarrel yesterday, they were fine before he and Chi Jingyuan separated.

"No."

"That's weird, Master Jingyuan didn't wait for you to have breakfast together." Liu Mingzhu raised the corners of her lips and teased, "Could it be that the period of burnout has arrived?"

Qi Yitang glanced at her, and Liu Mingzhu quickly covered her mouth with a round fan, signaling that she shut up.

Xia Yunzhou specifically consulted his grandfather, and his grandfather contacted many old seniors, and only then did he find out what the Huan Huan Xiang was.

"According to my grandfather and the others, the incense of revival has only appeared in legends, and no one knows whether it is really real. This morning, my uncle called me and said that the incense of revival was found in the literature. It can make people see what happened in the past, including the previous life. But the real revived incense will not make people hallucinate, let alone addictive, the revived incense that Ma Shasha and the others bought should be fake."

Chi Jingyuan added: "Yesterday, I went to the association and asked about it. Second...Second Uncle said that the one in Ma Shasha's hand is indeed a fake, a semi-finished product."

Whenever he mentioned Qi Yitang, he would subconsciously recall the dream from last night.So much so that he avoided Qi Yitang this morning and didn't have breakfast with him. Although it was just a dream, Chi Jingyuan still didn't know how to face Qi Yitang.

Just as he was talking, Chi Jingyuan received a call from Brother Liu, saying that the den selling Huan Huan incense had been found, and now the people involved in the case have been brought under control.

Hearing this, Chi Jingyuan hurried out, he was going to listen to the interrogation process.

"The person who sold the incense of resurrection has been caught, I will go to the bureau."

"Go ahead, call." Xia Yunzhou waved the phone in his hand.

When Chi Jingyuan passed by, he happened to be interrogating, and Zou Ping gave him a seat to watch the surveillance video together.

In the surveillance video, the criminal suspect tremblingly explained, "I...I don't know that person either, he...he gave me a prescription and told me to follow it, saying...that he would definitely let me Those who make a lot of money, I... I also... I don't know why I agreed at the time."

"However, someone actually bought this thing, and it sold very well. How could I know that there is something wrong with this thing, officer, this... No, this thing won't really kill people, right?"

Brother Liu gave him a cold look, "What does the person who gave you the prescription look like?"

The man's facial features were almost pulled together, "How would I know, he was wearing all black and a mask, I don't know if he is a man or a woman."

"No, it should be a man, he is taller than me."

"Mask? What mask?"

The man said depressingly: "It's just a mask, the whole face is covered, so I can't see anything, but there is a flower on it, I don't know what kind of flower it is. At that time, I thought he was a woman, maybe , wearing such a coquettish mask."

Chi Jingyuan frowned, and asked Zou Ping, "Have you found anything like talisman paper?"

Zou Ping gave him a strange look, "Amulet paper? No."

Chi Jingyuan recalled the previous two times, one in Y city, and one in the case of hiding a corpse in a mattress, leaving a piece of talisman. He thought that there might be a piece of talisman this time. Concentrate, not pay attention.

Chi Jingyuan asked Zou Ping for the place where the Huanhun incense was made, and he planned to go to the site himself.

After a busy day, Chi Jingyuan found a restaurant and ordered a large bowl of beef noodles. Within 2 minutes of sitting down, he received a call from Luo Xuefeng.

"That... Chi Jingyuan, are you free now?"

"What's wrong?" Chi Jingyuan asked, "Are you having nightmares again?"

"No, no." Luo Xuefeng hesitated for a while before hesitating to speak.

"It's actually like this, Liu Qingyao, do you still remember?"

Chi Jingyuan wouldn't forget his classmates' names within a month after the class reunion.

"remember."

"I met her just now. She said that she has been dreaming every day for the past few nights. It sounds a bit like my symptoms, and she looks very haggard, so I wonder if you can help her?" Luo Xuefeng It seemed that he felt a little sorry for always bothering Chi Jingyuan, so he hesitated in speaking.

"You two together?" Chi Jingyuan's noodles were just served, he said "thank you" to the waiter and picked up his chopsticks to eat.

"Yes." Luo Xuefeng knew that Chi Jingyuan had agreed to help as soon as he heard it, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Send me the location, and I'll be there in a while."

"Okay, okay." Luo Xuefeng naturally agreed.

Chi Jingyuan ate a bowl of noodles in 5 minutes, settled the bill and ran away in a hurry, the clerk was stunned.

When he arrived at the place Luo Xuefeng had mentioned, and suddenly met Liu Qingyao's affectionate eyes, he suddenly felt a chill behind him, something serious was wrong.
