Mysteriöses Brennen

Kapitel 4

Lin Feng interrupted Li Mingsheng, saying, "Send someone to search his house. Once you get there, you'll know whether what I said is true or false."

Li Mingsheng thought for a moment and said, "Alright, we'll have to search it sooner or later anyway!" After saying that, Li Mingsheng and Lin Feng went out together and then called the bureau to order someone to search Lao Si's house.

Lin Feng walked up to Xiao Jie Jie, who asked, "How was it?"

Lin Feng wiped the sweat from his brow and said, "Hey! It's not over yet!"

Xiao Jie exclaimed, "Ah! It's not over yet? When will it be over?"

Lin Feng shook his head and said, "I don't know either. You'll see, it's never over!"

Li Mingsheng handed Lin Feng a business card and said, "If you find anything, please contact me anytime. Also, please leave your phone number!"

Lin Feng glanced at Li Mingsheng's business card, gave him his phone number, and said, "You want to verify if what I said is true or false, right?" Li Mingsheng smiled, neither confirming nor denying.

Lin Feng and Xiao Jie walked home. Xiao Jie said regretfully, "Qu Yuan is usually quiet, but she's a good person. What happened to Lao Si?"

Lin Feng suddenly said seriously, "Starting today, you are requesting a change of office. Don't stay in that office anymore, understand?"

Xiao Jie said, "Even if you don't say so, I'm going to change anyway. Who can prepare lessons peacefully in a place where people have died?" Then she glared at Lin Feng and said, "Why are you talking to me in such a commanding tone? Do you want a beating?"

Lin Feng blinked and smiled, "I'm ordering you as your boyfriend!"

Xiao Jie suddenly remembered Lin Feng telling Li Mingsheng that he was her boyfriend, and raised her bag to hit Lin Feng, saying, "You pig, when did you become my boyfriend?"

Lin Feng blocked the way while saying, "Help! Help! Wasn't that just something I said offhand?"

Xiao Jie said harshly, "You can't just say whatever you want!"

Lin Feng said, "Okay, okay, I was wrong, alright? But it's not now, and it will be in the future anyway!"

Xiao Jie spat and slammed her fist on Lin Feng, saying, "Stop being so conceited! Even if I can't get married, I won't want a charlatan like you!"

Lin Feng cried out in exaggerated pain, "Ouch! Help! If you don't stop, another tragedy is about to happen!"

Xiao Jiejie persisted, "I'll smash you to death, so you won't talk nonsense anymore!"

The two laughed and joked as they walked home.

"Gotcha! Gotcha!" Xiao Jiejie woke up with a start, sensing something in the room. Desperate for light, she frantically reached for the bedside lamp.

But when she turned on the light, she found nothing. Xiao Jie breathed a sigh of relief, feeling safe; perhaps it was just a dream. But just because something isn't seen doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Xiao Jie turned off the light and drifted off to sleep again. In her hazy state, those bluish hands grasped her once more. Xiao Jie struggled, but found she couldn't even open her eyelids. However, she could clearly feel that they were bluish-brown hands, with bulging veins covering a layer of skin.

A chilling cold from hell swept through her body, and a sharp, piercing whistling sound reached Xiao Jie's ears. The sound was extremely unpleasant and shrill, and she felt it becoming increasingly difficult to breathe.

Unable to break free, no matter how much she struggled, she couldn't escape this terrifying dream. The shrill screams in Xiao Jie's ears reached their highest point. In her panic, she suddenly felt herself sinking deeper and deeper into a deep sleep.

When I woke up, it was already getting light.

Xiao Jie quickly turned on the lamp and saw a dark bruise around her right wrist. "A ghost pinched me," was Xiao Jie's first thought. She then thought of Lin Feng sleeping in the living room; perhaps he knew what had happened.

"Lin Feng!"

"kindness"

"Lin Feng, wake up! I've been touched by a ghost!"

"Stop messing around, I didn't touch you!" Three feet of drool dripped from Lin Feng's mouth.

"Get up! I'm being strangled to death by a ghost!"

How could I bear to strangle you?

"Lin Feng, if you don't get up, I'm going to get rough!" Xiao Jie Jie said, pretending to be sharpening her knife at the pigs and sheep next to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng continued to drool indifferently, saying "Hmm."

Xiao Jiejie was filled with rage and became emboldened. She grabbed Lin Feng's pajamas by the collar and shook him violently.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Are you trying to rape me? Help! Indecent assault!" Lin Feng woke up from his dream with a start, shouting without even wiping the drool from his mouth.

Xiao Jie said irritably, "I have no interest in molesting you. Look at my hand!" As she spoke, she held up her fair and white right hand to Lin Feng's face.

Lin Feng grabbed Xiao Jie Jie's hand, gently stroked it twice, and said, "So white! Ouch, why did you hit me? Doesn't it hurt?"

Xiao Jie really wanted to grab a knife and chop Lin Feng to death. "Who told you to touch my hand like that!"

Lin Feng asked, confused, "Then what?"

Xiao Jie pointed to the bruises on her wrist and said, "Look!"

Lin Feng looked at it carefully, then wiped his wrist with his mouth, getting Xiao Jie Jie's hand covered in saliva.

Xiao Jie was furious and punched Lin Feng hard, saying, "Are you trying to get yourself killed? Then use my hand to wipe your drool!"

Lin Feng cried out that he was wronged, saying, "It's just blood stasis! Saliva can dissolve blood stasis! This has been proven in practice!"

Xiao Jie wiped the drool off her wrist on Lin Feng's pajamas and said, "Last night I dreamt that someone grabbed me and I couldn't move, and when I woke up my hand was like this!"

Lin Feng jumped up, grabbed Xiao Jie Jie's wrist, looked at it for a long time, and said, "This is a 'ghost touch'!"

Xiao Jie exclaimed "Ah!" and pulled her hand back, feigning great fear, "What should we do?"

Lin Feng said seriously, "The solution is that I'll sleep with you starting today!"

"Pah!" Little Jie Jie snapped angrily, "I missed you so much!"

Lin Feng said, "How about this, I'll give you a talisman tonight. Put it under your pillow, and you should be fine!"

Xiao Jie said, "I'm still scared!"

Lin Feng shrugged and said, "Well, there's nothing I can do about that. But, could this be related to the school?" Lin Feng's mind finally cleared up a bit.

Xiao Jie blinked and said in a trembling voice, "You mean we brought back all the dirty things from school?"

Lin Feng said, "It's not us, it's you to be precise. I don't think we'll bring those things back! Besides, those things are still in this house."

Xiao Jie exclaimed in surprise, throwing herself into Lin Feng's arms, trembling as she asked, "What...what should we do?"

Lin Feng grinned like a weasel that had just stolen a chick and said, "This time you took the initiative, didn't you? Don't blame me for taking advantage of you!"

Xiao Jie suddenly realized what was happening, sat up straight, and blushed.

Lin Feng chuckled twice and said, "Don't worry, those filthy things that followed you back are all very low-level. They'll disappear automatically at dawn. I'll put a talisman on your door later, and I guarantee you'll sleep as comfortably as 'Hum' in the circle tonight. However..."

Lin Feng said half a sentence but then stopped, and hurriedly asked, "But what?"

Lin Feng said, "However, you must offer a beautiful kiss to repay this great mage!"

Xiao Jiejie raised her eyebrows, grabbed a pillow from the sofa, and threw it at Lin Feng, saying, "You wish! You philandering monk, I'll beat you to death!"

Lin Feng exclaimed, "Ouch!" and said, "I'm not a monk, I'm a Dharma Master!"

"It's all the same, I'll beat you to death, you frivolous monk!"

The sun finally peeked out from the horizon, and Xiao Jie went out to buy breakfast and came back.

While eating, Lin Feng complained, "You woke me up so early this morning, and now I have to eat this deadly carcinogen. What sins have I committed?!"

Xiao Jie glared at Lin Feng and said, "If you don't eat it, throw it out to feed the dogs!"

Lin Feng said, "Alright, alright, I'll eat!" He quickly finished the fried dough sticks, stretched, and then slowly walked to the box he had brought and opened it.

While drinking her milk, Xiao Jie said, "What are you up to now?"

Lin Feng took out a long strip of yellow paper from the box, and then pulled out a brand new wolf-hair brush.

Sitting at the coffee table, Xiao Jie was taking the last sip of her milk. Lin Feng suddenly asked, "Are you still a virgin?"

Xiao Jie sprayed milk all over the coffee table, almost knocking the bowl over Lin Feng's head, and said fiercely, "You boring person, you're itching for a beating again first thing in the morning!"

Lin Feng chuckled and said, "I'll write you an exorcising talisman. It'll be most effective if it's written with a virgin's blood!"

Xiao Jie glared at Lin Feng and said, "I don't know!"

Lin Feng muttered, "What kind of answer is this? Forget it, let's just use cinnabar. It's not as effective, but it'll do!" As he spoke, he took out a bottle of cinnabar from the box.

Xiao Jie was furious; this guy was fully equipped and clearly just trying to make himself happy.

Volume One, Chapter Ten: The Path of Vengeful Ghosts (10)

Lin Feng dipped a wolf-hair brush in cinnabar and began to draw on the yellow paper with vigorous strokes. Xiao Jie Jie couldn't understand what Lin Feng was writing; it looked like he was writing characters and drawing pictures at the same time.

After finishing writing, Lin Feng said proudly, "How are my talismans?"

Xiao Jie immediately pretended to vomit: "A college student's handwriting looks like a three-year-old's!"

Lin Feng chuckled twice and said, "You don't understand, that's how you write a talisman." Humming a little tune, he pasted the talisman on Xiao Jie Jie's door. Tilting her head, she looked at it from left to right, admiring it for a while before exclaiming repeatedly, "I'm so impressed with myself! I drew it so well! I'm a genius!"

Xiao Jie rolled her eyes at Lin Feng and said, "I'm off today, shall I take you out for a walk?"

Lin Feng smiled wryly and said, "Shopping is a woman's prerogative; I have no interest in it!" Before Xiao Jie could speak, Lin Feng's phone rang. Lin Feng picked it up, glanced at it, and said to Xiao Jie, "It's a police officer!" Then he answered the call.

"Is this Mr. Lin Feng?"

"Yes, you must be Officer Li. How are you? Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Yes, that's right. We did find three human heads in the refrigerator of the suspect's residence yesterday. I was wondering if you could come to the station and I'll arrange for a car to pick you up."

"Okay, we live in Building 13, Garden Street. We'll wait for you downstairs."

"Okay, I'll be right there."

Downstairs, Xiao Jie pinched Lin Feng's arm hard and said, "Why are you talking about us? You could have gone by yourself, why did you have to drag me into it!" Xiao Jie was very resentful that Lin Feng had delayed her shopping time.

On the way to the police station, Li Mingsheng, with bloodshot eyes, told Lin Feng, "The suspect died inexplicably this morning! There were no wounds on his body."

Lin Feng remained silent. Things had taken him by surprise. The death of the fourth brother was too sudden. Could it be that the vengeful ghost had already emerged? Xiao Jiejie, who was beside him, was frightened and clung tightly to Lin Feng.

Seeing that Lin Feng remained silent, Li Mingsheng asked, "What are your thoughts?"

Lin Feng shook his head and said, "Let's go take a look first!" Li Mingsheng nodded. All of this could not be explained by science, which forced him to seek help from Lin Feng.

Looking at the three heads in the containers, Xiao Jie Jie suppressed the urge to vomit and turned her head away. Lin Feng and Li Mingsheng observed them carefully. Li Mingsheng pointed to the first head and said, "This has been confirmed to be the daughter of your medical university's president."

While observing, Lin Feng said, "I'm sorry, I'm not from medical school!"

Li Mingsheng said "Oh" and then said, "According to the forensic examination, this human head has been stored in the refrigerator for more than a month."

Lin Feng exclaimed in surprise, "What? A month?" It's June now, and most things will spoil in three days if you put them in the refrigerator. This head has actually been sitting for more than a month.

Li Mingsheng nodded and said, "There's no mistake, this head has been left for more than three days!"

Lin Feng found it a bit unbelievable. Could someone have put a curse on it?
