Bewitching

After experiencing this incident, Zhao Xi naturally didn't want to stay in City Z anymore, and wished he could leave now, but the premise was to bring Ji Xingchen with him.

Although Ji Xingchen had a stinky face, he didn't really have the heart to leave him alone.

Seeing his ugly face, Meng Xi felt that it was best not to hit the gun at this time, so he greeted them and wanted to go back to the hotel.Sister An sent him all the way downstairs, and asked her assistant to drive him back.He knew what Sister An was worried about, and he assured him repeatedly that he would not talk nonsense when he returned.

Chen Ma was sitting on the sofa in the hotel watching a drama, she was quite surprised to see him come back by herself, she raised her head and asked him: "Has the matter been resolved?"

Meng Qian couldn't talk to her more, so he said vaguely, "Almost."

Chen's mother didn't ask any more questions. The mother and son packed their luggage and went downstairs to have a meal together. When it was about afternoon, they got on the bullet train back to the imperial capital.

After returning home, he was not idle, and searched a lot of news about Zhao Xi on the Internet.But most of them are some fancy praise posts, and some little useful lace news.He followed the movie "Breaking Ghosts" that Sister An said, followed the clues, and finally found the location where the movie was filmed - Sanjiang County.

This place in Sanjiang County is relatively remote, but fortunately, it is surrounded by mountains and rivers and has beautiful scenery.The small place that was originally poor and remote has developed a tourism industry in recent years. Although it is not a big fire, people often go there, which has also boosted the local economy.

Meng Xi thought for a while, quickly typed a few words on the keyboard, and searched for the recent major news in the local area. He compared the headlines on the search engine and clicked on each article one by one.After a long time, I didn't find the news I was looking for. Later, I changed my mind to extend the time to nearly three years, and entered Zhao Xi's name into it.

It wasn't until he opened a report from a place that had been silent for a long time that he found what he was looking for...

Meng Xi originally wanted to ask Ji Xingchen to talk about this matter, but his plan was suddenly disrupted because of his grades in the departmental examination.Although it was only an objective test, those who passed the test were naturally very happy, and they took turns to treat guests these few days; as for those who did not pass, they were dejected and full of annoyance, but Ke Jin used alcohol to numb themselves.Of course, the remorse in this does not include him and Cao Wenyuan, two aliens who did not work hard at all and did not hold any hope.

The fourth child in the dormitory barely passed the score line. After a few days of fun, he began to immerse himself in preparing for the following subjective questions, and started the hellish review mode.Meng Xi and Cao Wenyuan were too embarrassed to disturb others. They had nothing to do recently, so they didn't stay in the dormitory.

He has few classes on Friday, and only one class in the afternoon.Mother Chen called early to urge him to go home for dinner.Cao Wenyuan originally planned to ask him to go out to wander, but he had to let him go back when he got the letter.

After Meng Qian finished packing, he went to the supermarket near the neighborhood to buy a few bags of things according to the list made by Chen Ma and headed home.

He stood on the sidewalk waiting for the red light, and suddenly remembered the bus accident that happened not long ago, and the sudden burst of powerful demonic power.

He has never forgotten this matter, and in the dead of night, he would occasionally ponder over the origin of that monster aura.Some time ago, when he met Nian Qingwu, he also suspected the snake spirit.But after thinking about it later, I felt that something was wrong. No matter how popular she was, she was still the queen of topics on Weibo. If she really passed by, she would definitely be reported by the media.Besides, that demonic aura always has a sense of familiarity...

He was carrying two packs of things in his hand, thinking about something while strolling on the way home.When turning the corner, he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind.

He looked back, and saw Ji Xingchen walking towards him quickly, holding a large bouquet of flowers in his hand.

The temperature has dropped recently, and the cold wind hits people slowly, making it a little chilly.But Ji Xingchen didn't seem afraid of the cold, so he only put on a thin sweater.The off-white sweater was loosely put on him, making him look even more handsome.He changed his hairstyle to a new hairstyle, cutting off his slightly longer bangs, revealing his full forehead.The hair has also been cut a lot shorter, and the facial features look more three-dimensional.

Ji Xingchen saw Meng Xi from a long distance away, and for some reason, he got out of the taxi ahead of time.As soon as he got out of the car, he regretted it half to death.

It's too cold today!

On the other hand, that guy was wearing a thick windbreaker and a scarf around his neck, covering himself tightly.

"You really know the cold and the hot." He walked over, squinted his eyes and looked at Meng Xi, saw that he was carrying two big bags in his hand, his fingers turned white, and took one.

Meng Qiang thanked him softly, he was already fully familiar with this person's behavior of being cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and his heart was inconsistent.

The two got closer, and he found that the stitches of Ji Xingchen's sweater were not dense, and the wind would blow through, so it was not practical at all.He opened his mouth hoarsely, wanting to ask if it's cold?But considering this person's nature of wanting to save face, he didn't have much to say.He was attracted by the beautifully packaged bouquet in his hand, and asked curiously, "Send it to your girlfriend?"

Ji Xingchen rolled his eyes at him, and let out an inexplicable snort, "Where is my girlfriend, give it to your mother." After speaking, he looked away uncomfortably, "Well, auntie sent me a WeChat message yesterday, asking me to Come to your house for dinner..."

Meng Xi really didn't know about this matter, he was stunned when he heard this.But when he was thinking about answering the phone by himself, Cao Wenyuan was yelling and playing games with the microphone on. He guessed that her mother might have said it, but he didn't hear it clearly.

Ji Xingchen picked up the bag with one hand, only to realize that it was really heavy.This guy didn't know what he had bought, and there were two big bags bulging.

He pushed the bouquet in his hand towards Meng Xi, and said with distaste: "This thing is too fragrant, it makes me dizzy, you take it." After finishing speaking, he naturally took another bag from his hand and put it in the bag. go forward.

Meng Kui shook his head with a smile. This man has done a lot of practical things, but his mouth is a bit broken.

After the two left for a while, Ji Xingchen suddenly sneezed.Meng Xi glanced at him secretly, and saw that his face was expressionless, but his face was pale.

He sighed, untied his scarf, and coaxed him in a soft tone, "Low your head."

Ji Xingchen's face remained unchanged, but the tips of his ears turned red.He didn't say anything, and lowered his noble head in a rare obedient manner.

Meng Xi surrounded him, and the two walked into the community together.

Chen Ma waited for a long time, but she didn't see Meng Xi coming back.Just as he was anxious to make a phone call, Dahei suddenly jumped up and ran to the gate wagging his tail.After a while, there was a sudden sound of unlocking the door.

When Chen Ma went up to meet him, she saw him holding a bouquet of flowers, she was startled, and looked at him suspiciously, "Who gave it to you? Hey, what did I ask you to buy?"

Meng Qiang smiled and stepped aside, revealing Ji Xingchen who was carrying something behind him.

"He bought the flowers for you, and we happened to meet on the way."

Ji Xingchen came in from behind carrying two big bags, and said hello politely.

Chen Ma immediately covered her mouth and laughed out loud, and said embarrassedly: "You child, come here as soon as you come, what gift do you bring!"

When she was young, she liked these impractical and romantic things the most.At that time, she loved beauty and beauty, and had a dreamy romantic heart. Later, she got divorced. In order to take care of Meng Xi, she naturally ignored any life rituals and sentiments.Life has improved over the years, and occasionally I like to stop outside the flower shop and pick some cheap and long-lasting flowers to put at home.

Seeing the smiles in her eyes, Meng Xi knew that Ji Xingchen had given the right gift, and winked at him playfully.

Before the meal was ready, Mama Chen hurried back to the kitchen while humming a little song and placing the flowers in an obvious place.

Ji Xingchen was going to help, but Chen Ma kicked him out, and brought him the washed fruit, and asked him to watch TV in the living room.

When he walked into the living room, he saw Dahei lying at Meng Xi's feet "shamelessly".He stretched out his foot and kicked it twice, seeing that it was motionless, he gave it a dissatisfied look, squeezed over and sat next to Meng Kui.

Meng Kui turned his head and looked at the kitchen. Seeing that the door was closed, he hurriedly whispered to him, "Have you checked about Zhao Xi? I found something."

Ji Xingchen thought of Zhao Xi, who had been cheating on him all day long, and his face was a little ugly, "I also found something, I wanted to find you..."

He did discover something two days ago, but it just happened to be in time for the supervisor to issue the results of the exam.Seeing that there was no movement from this person, he reckoned that he hadn't been there, so he didn't come to look for him.

Ji Xingchen half-spoken, squinted at him, saw that he didn't respond, and continued: "I've been annoyed to death by Zhao Xi recently, you should get down to business first."

After Zhao Xi came back from City Z, he immediately canceled all commercial performances and activities.During the day, he asked his assistant to stay at home with him, and in the afternoon, he covered his face tightly and took people to school or his house to block him.Naturally, it was impossible for him to let Zhao Xi go to the dormitory, let alone take him home. In the end, he had no choice but to take this guy to Xing Er's shop.

Xing Er was so happy to accompany Zhao Xi, guessing how to surround him these few days and coax this idiot out of money!

"I followed the movie "Breaking Ghosts" and found Sanjiang County. I found out that Zhao Xi had been there two years ago. When he was filming the movie, there were several accidents on the set. There was a scene where he went swimming in the river As a result, he didn't come up after going down, and he didn't respond after swimming in the water for a long time. Later, people from the crew went down and rescued him. Another time, the steel bars on the scaffolding suddenly fell and hit him on the head, causing him to faint After three days, I miraculously woke up naturally again."

Ji Xingchen picked up an orange from the fruit plate on the coffee table, peeled off the outer skin, twisted a piece and threw it into his mouth, "Then what?"

"The level of medical treatment in Sanjiang County is limited, and he was severely smashed. The crew wanted to transfer him to the city, but it happened to catch up with the rainy season there, and there were several heavy rains in a row, and the highway was closed, which delayed three God, he woke up when the road cleared." Meng Xi clicked on another news link in his mobile phone and showed it to Ji Xingchen, "This is another news, it was the day before Zhao Xi went to Sanjiang County. [-]. There happened to be a flood there. At that time, many roads were blocked, and people could not get in or out. A few students who were traveling were unfortunately trapped in the mountains. When the rescue team went to rescue them, they could only One was rescued, and the remaining two were swept down the mountain by the mudslide. One of them found the body, but the other did not even find the body."

He zoomed in on the black and white photos of the two deceased, pointed to a girl with long hair and said, "This girl is the one whose body was not found. She has long hair, is very thin, and is also very beautiful. Moreover, I followed her Weibo to search, I found that most of the topic links on her Weibo are news about Zhao Xi."

Ji Xingchen threw away the orange in his hand and looked at the photo in thought.

Meng Xi continued: "Do you know what a lonely ghost is? It refers to those wandering souls who are homeless and have no place to go after death. Her body was never found, so naturally she couldn't be cremated and buried. There is no home to go to. Lonely ghosts cannot be reborn, they can only linger in the place after death, and will not be scattered until the yin life is exhausted. I guess, after Zhao Xi was in a coma in an accident, he may have accidentally left the soul and met her. Or I met her when I went into the water... Anyway, the two should have contacted each other, but he couldn't remember it for some reason. By the way, you still remember that Zhao Xi said that when the girl saw him, she said something, 'Do you think she is You recognized me'. Recognized, it means that the two of them have met before!"

After he finished speaking, he frowned again, "But I didn't understand one thing. Since she is a lonely ghost and cannot leave Sanjiang County, why did she suddenly come out with Zhao Xi, and followed him all the way to City Z? ..."

Ji Xingchen interjected at this moment: "Maybe it's because you are young."

"Do you still remember that when Zhao Xi was filming "Breaking Ghosts", he was suddenly obsessed with ghosts and took his assistant to buy tribute paper money? I asked him two days ago, and he said that a few people in the crew were chatting casually before the filming, and Nian Qingwu suddenly talked about them. There is a custom in my family called 'dispelling evil spirits'. It is said to use ghost money to ward off evil spirits, which means 'money can make ghosts push the millstones, and use money to send away lonely ghosts'. They also say that making ghost movies has evil spirits, so you must avoid evil spirits. This idiot really believed what the female goblin said, so he found someone to buy things the next day, and foolishly followed suit."
