Chapter 27 If You Don’t Come Out, I’ll Die

"Captain! We are not afraid of death! Take us to the ancient street to rescue people!"

"Yes, Captain, we can't just ignore it."

"Captain, we were prepared to die the day we joined."

Captain Lin suddenly smiled when he heard what the three people in the back seat said. He took out half a pack of cigarettes from his chest and threw it into the back seat. "Captain, please smoke today."

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief. He was rarely so generous, so they mistakenly thought that this was his last cigarette before death and took several deep puffs.

After joining this department, I encountered many strange things, and sometimes I relied on cigarettes to stay calm.

So most people smoke, and the rest are either younger or women who hate the smell of cigarettes.

By the time the three men lit the second gun, Captain Lin had already driven the car back to the police station.

His heart, which had been beating like a galloping horse, finally calmed down a little.

God knows how rational he was to remain calm and drive back.

Captain Lin thought of no less than a hundred bizarre stories in his mind along the way.

"Our department, no, the entire Chinese nation, is saved."

The three of them held half a cigarette in their hands and stared at him blankly, as if to say that this was an illusion caused by their fear of death?

But then I thought again that it was impossible. Captain Lin was not that kind of person.

Even after Captain Lin finished explaining what had happened and Yu Qing's origins, the three of them were still in shock.

"Minister Tang and Vice Minister Lian, are your genes so amazing?"

Captain Lin looked at the person who was speaking and gave him a chestnut.

What are you talking about!

Although he also felt it was strange, there was no news before that the Tang family's newly found daughter was good at metaphysics, so how could she suddenly show her talent?

It must be that the people of the Shen family are too despicable and shameless, causing her to hide her incompetence and for him to discover her talent only now!

The four people sitting in the car began to feel indignant for Yu Qing.

…

Moonlight enveloped Partridge Ancient Street, and rows of eternally burning lanterns suddenly went out.

The big knife fell to the ground with a loud noise.

The black fog was completely sucked away, and his true form hidden in the black fog was revealed.

He was a big, burly man with a hairstyle common in ancient times, and deep, tightly narrowed eyes.

"I lost."

Seeing that Yu Qing didn't say anything, he simply sat down on the ground and said, "My surname is Wu, my given name is You, and I don't have a given name. I am the only son in my family, and it was the king who took me in."

"He allowed me to work in a temple. Every day, people were sent there for me to punish. The one I was most proficient at was skinning."

Wu You became a skinner at the age of ten. At the age of twenty-two, he went to a mass grave in the mountains to dump corpses. He never returned alive and died in a revenge killing.

This profession has many enemies, but they are respected by the emperor. If they encounter any misfortune, they can ask him to show mercy and give them a quick death.

Wu You has met many people and even more ghosts, including extremely vicious criminals and people or ghosts who have been wronged.

At that time, the peeled skin had other uses, unlike now, when he accidentally discovered an eternal lamp made of human skin, which was extremely bright and beautiful.

"Since I became conscious, everything around me has changed from what I remember. Later, I accidentally devoured a soul and discovered that I could enhance my abilities through this behavior."

Wu You spoke of his past with an expressionless face, like a bystander, extremely calm.

Xiong Peihan was extremely angry when he heard this. He wanted to curse a few words, but he met Wu You's cold gaze. His expression froze and he silently retreated behind Yu Qing.

"It's time for you to get out."

Yu Qing doesn't like to talk when she is angry. This is the first time she spoke after the confrontation with Wu You.

In the dim little kitchen, only a trace of moonlight shone in. A vortex appeared on the ground at some point, and an unknown black door rose up, with an ancient golden totem on it releasing pressure.

Wu You turned his head to look. The slight trembling of his soul caused by the door was an indescribable extreme fear, but he did not show it on his face.

He stood up calmly and walked towards the door calmly.

There was a straight passage inside the door, with thousands of ghost hands on both sides extending from a dark and bottomless pool of water. On the bridge covered with red flowers, Hei Wuchang stared at him with an indifferent expression.

Wu You paused slightly, then sneered, "One day, darkness will reappear in the world." After leaving these strange words, he stepped into the black door.

The black door slowly closed and returned to the ground without leaving a trace.

The sins of Partridge Ancient Street have been made right today.

There are people who come here for adventure, ghosts who died nearby, cleaners who strayed into the ancient streets, and lost old people and children...

Those thousands of evil spirits cannot be liberated and cannot enter the reincarnation cycle. For such sins, it would not be too much for Wu You to be sent to the eighteen levels of hell and suffer all kinds of torture forever!

Yu Qing didn't look at Xiong Peihan and walked out on his own.

Xiong Peihan followed behind her and wanted to speak several times but forced himself to hold it back.

The girl was covered in coldness and took out a cup of milk tea like a magic trick.

Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Xiong Peihan just followed her quietly, thinking that he should avoid getting into trouble.

There were a few people standing at the entrance of Partridge Ancient Street. When Xiong Peihan saw them, he said goodbye to Yu Qing and ran over excitedly. No one was hurt, which was really good news.

Yu Qing raised his eyelids and glanced at him, then looked away coldly.

These people won't listen to advice, and one day they will suffer the consequences themselves.

Her main purpose in coming here was not to save Xiong Peihan, but the thousands of dead souls.

You may be lucky this time, but not necessarily next time.

Not all ghosts give them a chance to react.

Xiong Peihan chatted with the members of the Weird Detective Agency for a few minutes before he thought of his savior Yu Yang.

But when they looked over there again, there was only a white cordon blown by the wind.

Xiong Peihan pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized——

He seems to have trouble remembering what Yu Yang looks like!

…

The empty milk tea cup was thrown into the trash can steadily in a beautiful parabola. Yu Dan held the phone in one hand and tapped the screen with his index finger.

There are no ride-hailing services available around here.

"Sister Yu! Sister Yu Qing!" A male voice with a crying tone suddenly came.

Yu Qing hasn't looked up yet.

A pair of large hands suddenly reached out, and she took a half step back to avoid them.

Que Qiaosheng's hands froze for a moment, then she turned mournful and howled without caring about her image: "Sister, if you don't come out, I'll die!"

The handsome and tall man was kneeling on the ground, his face wrinkled as if he was about to cry, which was really a bit ugly and incongruous.

He looked haggard, with dark circles under his eyes, but he still managed to wear a suit and tie, spray his hairspray, and dress up carefully before coming out.

Yu Qing raised his eyes without looking at it.

She tore off the candy coating, stuffed a White Rabbit candy into her mouth, and said nonchalantly: "I know what happened, and I'll go and solve it now."

Que Qiaosheng: “…” He hasn’t said anything yet!

Thinking of the amulet that Yu Qing gave him, Que Qiaosheng shook his head, shook off his messy thoughts, and approached him again.

How could I doubt the ability of the big sister of Xuanmen!

…

The incident happened at Que Qiaosheng's home. On the way to his house, he described the incident in detail.
