Chapter 45：

Tang Xi couldn't help when visiting and investigating work, but Chu Li and the whole crime team were too busy to touch the ground.

The victims were burned to ashes, mixed into cement, and directly put into the construction-Jiangnan City has not had a case of such a bad nature for many years. Once the case was filed, it immediately received high attention from the above. The director even gave a death order for a month. Inside, the case must be solved!

But these have nothing to do with Tang Xi for the time being, she went back to school early on Monday morning.

"Your second uncle?" Tang Xi looked at the young man in front of him with a puzzled expression.

"Well, my second uncle is back." Cheng Yihang nodded. "He said he wanted to see you, what do you think?"

"I'm fine, you just need to make an appointment." Tang Xi said immediately.

With her current friendship with Cheng Yihang and the things they did, the Cheng family wanted to see her no longer normal. It's just that she didn't expect that the request was not Mr. Cheng, but the mysterious second uncle.

It just so happened that she was also a little curious about the celestial master who had heard of being very powerful.

"Second uncle said, if you don't mind, he can come to visit." Cheng Yihang said.

"He is an elder, is it appropriate to visit me?" Tang Xi was shocked.

"The second uncle has always been casual and doesn't care about the rules or anything." Cheng Yihang said helplessly.

"Okay, I should be free recently, or Saturday?" Tang Xi agreed without much thought.

In the past, she had a teacher and uncle who was an old naughty character, and she was not too old to be a student at an age, she had long been surprised, and a capable person could be tolerated even if there were some quirks.

"..." Cheng Yihang looked at her, the expression on her face was a bit...unlovable.

"What else, finish it all at once." Tang Xi sighed.

"Second Uncle said that a friend asked him to go to Qing Province to see Feng Shui. He will take a plane tomorrow morning and come back during the Chinese New Year." Cheng Yihang said.

Tang Xi was speechless.

After a long while, she tentatively said: "Tonight?"

Cheng Yihang nodded bitterly.

Although the second uncle is often unreliable, but this time it is too unreliable! It's the first time to visit a girl who lives alone. Although she is a junior, she will be visiting that evening. Isn't she too particular about it?

Tang Xi couldn't help but rubbed her eyebrows. Suddenly there was a feeling that the visitor was unkind. Could it be that Second Uncle Cheng blamed her for abducting Cheng's only son into a crisis?

"Otherwise... I ask him to come back in the next year?" Cheng Yihang asked.

"Forget it, just tonight, I'll see you earlier so I don't have to worry about it." Tang Xi said.

She always likes to solve problems immediately, and has been dragging her thinking.

"Okay. That... I'm really sorry." Cheng Yihang breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's not your fault." Tang Xi waved her hand and raised her lips. "It just so happens that I have seen too many liars, and I want to see the level of other celestial masters."

When Cheng Yihang heard the words, a drop of cold sweat dripped from the back of his head, and he silently mourned for his second uncle.

However, after all, the visitor was a guest. After school, Tang Xi returned home and asked Aunt Zhang to tidy up the house, especially the toys on the floor of the living room and various teaching aids and test papers that almost flooded the sofa and coffee table.

By the way, I found a beautiful glass tea set. The previous set... She said that she was a little allergic to "bone china" recently.

It was ten minutes to seven. Tang Xi checked that the time was almost up. He called the property, reported the license plate number sent by Cheng Yihang, and let the guard let him go.

When she finished making the tea, at exactly seven o'clock, the doorbell rang exactly.

"Xiao Xi, are we going to avoid it?" Aunt Zhang asked anxiously.

After all, unlike the people who came before, I heard that today is going to be a celestial master.

Tang Xi thought for a while, opened the notebook, temporarily put all the ghosts in the house in, and then put the notebook under the coffee table.

"Here." She put a decent smile on her face and got up to open the door.

Outside the door is a man in his 30s, shirt and trousers, knitted waistcoat, and a long off-white windbreaker outside. He looks three-way like Cheng Yihang. There is a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose. He looks gentle, saying that he is a celestial master. , It's more like a professor in a university.

"Mr. Cheng?" Tang Xi yelled suspiciously without seeing Cheng Yihang.

"Cheng Huaying." The man nodded, as if he understood what she hadn't said, and then said, "Yihang is below. I have something I want to talk to Miss Tang alone."

"Come in first." Tang Xi frowned slightly and let the door open.

Cheng Huaying walked into the door, paused for a while, and stopped directly in the middle of the living room.

Tang Xi closed the door, walked over, and chuckled softly, "Mr. Cheng, please sit down. I live alone in such a big place. You are free."

"Is there only one person?" Cheng Huaying raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Of course." Tang Xi was confident.

There is really only one person.

Cheng Huaying chose a single sofa to sit down, took off the windbreaker and put it on the armrest.

"Please have tea." Tang Xi poured two cups of tea and divided a cup in front of him. Because it is a glass pot, it is made of chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea.

"Thank you." Cheng Huaying nodded, did not touch the tea, but scanned the room.

"I heard that Mr. Cheng will show people Feng Shui. I don't know how you think of Feng Shui in my house?" Tang Xi asked.

"The Yin Qi is extremely heavy, which is not good for the living." Cheng Huaying blurted out eight words, without even a little bit of tact.

Tang Xi was taken aback, and suddenly "poof" smiled.

"People and ghosts have different paths. Miss Tang should also understand that there is no benefit to living beings with ghosts all year round, ranging from cold and weak physique to weak..." Cheng Huaying paused before uttering the last words, "Death!"

Tang Xi gradually reduced his smile and said nothing.

The air in the room was cold, and there was a faint sound of paper turning.

"Thank you Mr. Cheng for your advice." Tang Xi finally said.

Cheng Huaying's gaze fell on her left wrist, and she raised her eyebrows slightly: "Soul Cultivation Tree?"

"Should Mr. Cheng come for this thing?" Tang Xi shook his wrist and smiled. "I think Cheng Yihang is the heir of the Cheng family. Even if the promise he made doesn't count, it should be Cheng who opposes it. Anyway, it seems... nothing is wrong with Mr. Cheng."

"Miss Tang joked. Cheng is on a voyage. Since the things he sent out, it represents Cheng." Cheng Huaying shook her head and pondered for a moment. Maybe you are young and energetic now and feel that everything is under your control, but the living person will not end well after controlling the ghost. The nature of the human and the ghost is the opposite extreme. I want the ghost to not dissipate due to the disappearance of obsession. It must be fed with resentment. And when Li ghost is invaded by resentment, he will slowly lose his mind and eat his master. Of course, you can choose to use your own spiritual power instead of resentment to feed the Li ghost, but the spiritual power of the heavenly master is precious, and you are nourishing it. There are so many ghosts, just like playing with fire. You may not know these."

"I know." Tang Xi nodded, "However, Mr. Cheng seems to have made a mistake."

"Huh?" Cheng Huaying was puzzled.

"I have never been the master of a ghost." Tang Xi leaned back on the sofa and said leisurely, "I don't know what Mr. Cheng thinks of a ghost, but for me, since they choose to follow me, they are my family. , Life and death together, we share honor and disgrace. The way to control ghosts is hard to follow, and it is not feasible for people without great perseverance since ancient times. The world is prosperous, and there are too many things that disturb people's hearts and minds. It is difficult for anyone to insist on not being tempted-but Mr. Cheng can't do it by himself When it comes, please don't think that others can't do it, okay?"

"You are still young..."

"Because you are young, you can't stand the temptation?" Tang Xi tilted her head, seemingly curious. "Mr. Cheng has been alone for so many years. I am a little curious about what you have experienced before that has made you so unconfident."

"I—not confident?" Cheng Huaying was stunned.

For so many years, I have always heard someone call him arrogant and conceited, and no one has even said that he is...not confident enough!

"Because I am not confident, I don't believe in people." Tang Xi looked back without showing weakness.

"..." Cheng Huaying was dumb.

"In the final analysis, how are we? It's up to you." Yun Qi suddenly appeared behind the sofa where Tang Xi was sitting, leaning against the back of the sofa, raised his sword eyebrows, his face full of disdain.

"Thousand-year ghost!" Cheng Huaying's pupils suddenly tightened.

"Don't move, I will tear you up if I dare to take the charm." Under the cover of Yun Qi, Su Huang appeared directly behind him, his sharp nails against the aorta near his neck.

Cheng Huaying's body was stiff, and a fine cold sweat was oozing out on her back.

"Sister Su Huang, don't be so fierce." Tang Xi waved and motioned Su Huang to let go.

She could see that Cheng Huaying didn't care much about Su Huang who directly threatened him. That person's attention was all focused on Yun Qi, which showed that he was sure to deal with Su Huang.

This is also the world's highest-level celestial master she has ever seen. Compared with that, Fang Tianyun is a child playing house.

Su Huang "cut" and walked to the side curlingly, or rather...swimming to the side.

Cheng Huaying glanced at the snake's tail exposed under her red dress, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"What do you look at! Look at my old lady and pull out your eyeballs!" Su Huang glared at him.

"Sorry." Cheng Huaying sighed and looked at Tang Xi's eyes more solemnly, "You are very powerful, not just spiritual power."

"Thanks for the compliment?" Tang Xi said.

"But, even if I believe you can control your ghost without losing control, what?" Cheng Huaying pushed his glasses and said calmly, "You are a human, they are a ghost, your time is not equal. After a hundred years, you will leave, And they will always be there. If you are gone, what else can you talk about out of control and not out of control?"

Tang Xi was startled.

"Sure enough." Cheng Huaying almost laughed angrily. "Don't you want to say,'After I die, take care of him flooding the sky'?"

Tang Xi's expression became serious.

Indeed, she never thought about it. But even in her previous life, she was in her early twenties, and she was in full bloom. And as the leader of her profound sect, she used her fierce means to seal ghosts and eliminate demons and souls. Everyone blindly trusts her. No one has ever thought that if Tang Xi is gone, those ghosts who have lost their restraint will meet. how.

In fact, she just came into this world so suddenly, except for Yunqi's tearing time and space, what about other ghosts? Will she guard the gate and wait for her to go home, or...

"Sorry." Tang Xi nodded, and when he looked at Cheng Huaying, there was more respect in her eyes.

Since the master's absence, no one has spoken to her in an admonishing tone, and some are not used to it. But if it makes sense, she will still listen.

She never felt that being strong can do whatever she wants.

"you…"

At this moment, the rapid cell phone ringing rang, interrupting Cheng Huaying's words about to export.

"Wait a minute." Tang Xi's face changed.

This is Chu Li's ringtone. If it is not a matter of importance, Captain Chu would not call her at night.

"Hello? Chu..."

"Where are you Tang Xi? Come here for help!" As soon as he spoke, Chu Li yelled hurriedly.

"Hello?" Tang Xi stood up abruptly and said sharply, "Where are you?"

"Boom!" A huge roar came from the microphone, and even Cheng Huaying on the other side could hear it clearly.

"Hey! Chu Li!" Tang Xi shouted.

"...Cough cough cough cough." It took a long time to hear Chu Li's cough, and then it was obvious that he was talking while running, "It's okay for the time being, I'm in a funeral home in Jiangnan City."

"Okay, I'll come right away." Tang Xi clamped the phone between her cheek and shoulder, and put on her coat in a hurry, "You were attacked by something? Can you hold it?"

"Dead man!" Chu Li's voice couldn't tell whether it was frustrated or something. "The corpse in the freezer is alive! Damn, I thought I was playing the real version of Resident Evil!"

"You should be thankful that you can beat the corpse anyway. If it's a ghost, you can't wait for you to call for help?" Tang Xi sneered.

"Don't talk nonsense, don't come here quickly!" Before Chu Li said a word, there was a loud noise of something falling to the ground.

"Where is the Jiangnan Funeral Home?" Tang Xi asked at the end after picking up her handbag and changing her shoes.

"..." Chu Li didn't make a sound for a while, and then roared wildly, "Take a taxi or watch the navigation!"

Tang Xi wanted to say that she was afraid that you wouldn't be able to persist at that time-but she hadn't been to the unfamiliar places, and it was not easy to shrink the ground.

The phone has been hung up.

"Is it Chu Li?" Cheng Huaying asked in surprise.

"Well, I understand what Mr. Cheng meant, and I will consider it, but now I have to go out first if I have something to do, you can do it yourself." Tang Xi said hurriedly.

"Jiangnan Funeral Home? I'm familiar with it, let's be together." Cheng Huaying grabbed her windbreaker and walked in front.

Tang Xi was taken aback, and quickly followed.

Save the time of taxiing, don't have to worry about watching the navigation by yourself, one more thug can do three things in one fell swoop!

Rejection is stupid.

Downstairs, Cheng Yihang, who was bored in the car, couldn't help being stunned when he saw that they had actually run down.

"Get off." Cheng Huaying got on the car and said while wearing a seat belt.

"Huh?" Cheng Yihang got into the car in confusion, and looked at Tang Xi who came after.

However, before he could ask, Tang Xi jumped over him, jumped on the co-pilot, and slammed the door of the car "Bang". Without waiting for her to sit firmly, Cheng Huaying kicked the accelerator and walked away.

"Hey!" Cheng Yihang, who was left in the same place, was drunk for two steps, dumbfounded.

In the car, Tang Xi pulled on the seat belt and asked, "How long?"

"If it's normal, it's half an hour—" Cheng Huaying glanced at her, "Sit down and grab it."

Tang Xi sighed, raised his hand and grabbed the handle on the roof of the car.

The next moment, the car accelerated, stepped on the tail of the flashing yellow light, rushed through the intersection and made a big turn.

Tang Xi also didn't expect Cheng Huaying to look gentle and gentle. The drag racing was so cruel that he was squeezed into the seat by inertia, and finally switched to go straight. Then he let out a sigh of relief and cursed: "You are a road killer!" What to do if you bump into someone!"

"Don't worry, I am a road racer registered by the club, and the technical guarantee is okay. After this series of tickets, I have to let Xiao Chu help to eliminate them." Cheng Huaying calmly said.

"This is not a technical problem, okay..." Tang Xi was really powerless to complain.

However, thanks to Cheng Huaying's blessing, the original half-hour journey was shortened by half the time.

The car drifted and stopped under the steps of the funeral home. The two of them jumped out of the car tacitly and ran up the steps a few steps without even having time to close the car door.

Of course, this car was towed away by the traffic police at most, so I didn't worry about the thief.

This kind of luxury car can't be taken away by stuffing it in your pocket. Who dares to drive away in a city full of surveillance, unless the brain is flooded and mad.

At night, there shouldn't be people in the funeral home, but today the crime team has been checking the cremation materials at the funeral home, and a manager stayed to receive it. However, although the interior was brightly lit, the door was locked.

"Yunqi opens the door." Tang Xi said.

Yunqi still used the old method, went through the glass door and opened the insurance from the inside.

Tang Xi stepped into the farewell hall, and he didn't care if anything would be disturbed, and directly shouted: "Chu Li! Is he dead? Just make a sound if he doesn't die!"

"Tang, Consultant Tang?" A head came out after a wreath.

"Xiao Liu? Are you okay? Where's your Chu team?" Tang Xi asked.

"Team Chu went inside and asked me to lock the door of the funeral home." Xiao Liu's face was pale, and he dragged a unconscious girl out, "Consultant, this is Manager Qiu from the funeral home..."

"Let me see." Cheng Huaying took a step forward, put **** on the side of her neck, and quickly said, "It's okay, I'm scared, I will deal with her memory in a moment, and don't make any shadows."

"Then it will be troublesome." Tang Xi also breathed a sigh of relief.

She herself is a serious student in the field of science, and she has never ambiguous about any person or evil spirit in terms of force.

"Consultant, who is this gentleman?" Xiao Liu asked.

"You friends of the Chu team." Tang Xi said casually, and then said, "Mr. Cheng, they will be handed over to you. I will go to Chu Li."

"It's okay." Cheng Huaying took out two charms, one for Xiao Liu and the other into the girl's pocket, and ordered "Wait here, don't run around", and then followed Tang Xi and explained. "The situation is unknown, I will go in with you."

Tang Xi glanced at him, but didn't object.

Just seeing Xiao Liu hiding with the unconscious female manager for so long, he knew that they were not the target.

"Behind." Yunqi's jade flute nodded and pointed her direction.

"That is the funeral hall." Cheng Huaying said.

"Mr. Cheng is familiar with funeral homes." Tang Xi's expression was a little weird.

"Well, I am also a Feng Shui." Cheng Huaying was helpless.

Passing through the middle courtyard, the two quickly ran into the building behind, quietly along the way, without seeing any walking corpses.

"Kh! Kh!" There was a crashing sound from the depths of the building.

"In the front." Tang Xi said solemnly.

However, after turning a corner, the scene at the end of the corridor is a bit beyond the psychological endurance of people.

I saw seven or eight "people" swaying, slamming into a closed door unconsciously.

"It really is Resident Evil." Tang Xi's eyes twitched.

Of course, this is definitely not a zombie, it's just that someone manipulated these corpses that were about to be cremated and crawled out of the freezer.

Manipulation. Hey, it's a familiar method!

After removing Anna, the perverted "A Qiang" seemed to have disappeared. However, it was enough to hide, since he appeared in front of her, don't blame her for being rude!

"Wait." Cheng Huaying grabbed her wrist.

"Fuck... trouble!" Tang Xi quickly reacted.

Chu Li may not be forced to hide by a few corpses with only instincts and slow movements, but for one thing, he has to keep things in the funeral parlour so as not to cause public panic. Secondly... these are not corpses made by evil cultivation. , But ordinary people in Jiangnan City. If the corpse stored in the funeral home is destroyed, there will be big news tomorrow. The title of police corpse abuse is not surprising.

However, just like the villager who faced the control on a barren mountain, Tang Xi... has never been good at saving people.

"If you can cut off the control of the people behind the scenes, I can draw out the grievances in them." Cheng Huaying said.

"Okay!" Tang Xi didn't hesitate for a second, and responded, wiping her spiritual power before her eyes.

Immediately, the foreground object of the eye was replaced.

Under her silver pupils, it is clear that there is a thin black thread on the corpses, which is like a puppet show, controlling their actions.

"Prepare." Tang Xi showed a spiritual knife in his hand, rushed up quickly, kicked on the wall with one foot, jumped more than two meters high with strength, and slashed it down.

The psychic knife touched the line of resentment, like a burning knife cutting through the butter, instantly melting the resentment.

"Ding!" Cheng Huaying threw a spell, floated over the heads of the group of corpses, whirled around, and then issued a few golden lights from the spell, exactly one by one, submerged from the Baihui acupoint on the top of his head.

Tang Xi watched the resentment that quickly retracted, and chased after him without a single glance.

"Xiao Xi, it's the fragrance." Su Huang said suddenly.

"Sure enough, that woman on the barren mountain." Tang Xi's eyes lit up.

Living people can't always compare with grievances, and they lose track after three turns and two turns.

"Here." Su Huang led the way without hesitation.

"Good job!" Tang Xi praised with satisfaction.

In a blink of an eye, she ran out of the building through the back door, behind which was a small garden, the street light was not turned on, and it was dark, and even the shaking shadows of the trees looked like ghosts whirling.

Tang Xi pointedly noticed that a light-colored corner of his clothes flashed past in the dark.

"Want to run?" Su Huang shouted.

Tang Xi frowned.

For the sake of beauty, the small garden built small bridges with flowing water and covered bridges with flowers and vines. However, the reality is that no matter how good her physical skills are, she is not as good as she is in the martial arts novels.

"Yun Qi, stop her for me!" Tang Xi said.

Yun Qi has fought side by side with her for many years, and has a tacit understanding. When she spoke, she had already blocked the only way-terrain can stop living people but cannot stop ghosts.

"Get out of the way." The woman's voice was a little hoarse, and the baseball cap on her head was pressed extremely low. Even if there was a thousand-year-old ghost in front of her, there was no fluctuation. When she raised her hand, it was a **** smoke.

"You..." A trace of shock flashed across Yun Qi's face, and the hand holding the flute trembled, unexpectedly slowing down.

With just such a gap, the woman has already climbed over the wall neatly.

The streets of Jiangnan City are separated by a wall. It is basically impossible to find people from the vast crowd before nine o'clock.

Tang Xi waved away the **** smoke that had corroding souls, and said strangely: "Yun Qi, what's the matter with you? This is not like your personality."

Not to mention the huge mistake of letting people go, if it weren't for her timely action, she would even be injured by blood and smoke.

It is not a big deal for a living person to be smeared with blood, but when a ghost encounters this, it will immediately be the pain of burning the soul, the kind that will not stop if it is not burned out!

"I..." Yun Qi was silent for a moment, without saying anything.
