Old Ye’s body could not be kept. In order to get a death certificate, Lin Jingyu went to the police station to find Lin Jingchun again, but was told that he had not returned yet.
He checked his watch: "It's almost four o'clock. Where has he been? Why hasn't he come back yet?"
Chen Fang shook her head and pointed at Ah Mao: "You can ask them. Captain Lin left after the meeting this morning. They should know."
Seeing Ah Mao still looked at Ah Yu with disdain, he said lazily, "Team Leader Lin is off to investigate an unsolved case. Longshan is very far away, and they have to cross several mountains. It takes four or five hours to go back and forth."
Thinking that Ah Yu was Captain Lin's cousin after all, he asked, "Do you have something to ask Captain Lin? I'll tell him when he gets back."
"It doesn't have to be him, A-Mao, you can do it too."
Ah Mao was stunned: "Me?"
As soon as the two of them came out of Chunjiang Police Station, they saw Lin Jingchun and A Ming.
Lin Jingyu saw Lin Jingchun's tattered coat and one bare foot at a glance, and he couldn't believe it: "Brother?"
Ah Mao also noticed that Ah Ming had one hand hanging: "What's going on?"
"Let's talk inside."
Lin Jingchun's face looked very bad, and both of their lips were pale. After they went in, sat down, and drank some water, they finally felt better.
"Longshan is such a weird place," Ah Ming said with a lingering fear. "Team Leader Lin and I were almost at Qingshan Village, so we thought we'd speed up. But guess what? The wind suddenly started blowing, howling. Then we noticed fog was coming up, and later Team Leader Lin noticed we'd been walking to the same place. It was so weird."
Ah Mao stared at them suspiciously. "That shouldn't be the case. I remember we went to Longshan together when we first came to the police station. There's only one road there. How could you get lost?"
"What do you mean lost? If you ask me..." Ming looked around, motioned for Mao to come closer, and then lowered his voice, "It must be a ghost wall."
Ah Mao chuckled twice: "Brother Ah Ming, we are police officers, how dare you believe this?"
"If you ask me, it must be that you have a bad memory and took a wrong turn and turned back."
He added meaningfully, "Captain Lin, you should have taken me with you this morning. I tell you, I know the way very well."
Lin Jingchun was sorting out the torn clothes at the moment, and felt very distressed when he saw the several holes on it.
His clothes were leather jackets bought by Lin Jingchun's mother, which cost several thousand yuan each, and they were just wasted like that.
Seeing this, Lin Jingyu said happily, "Brother, don't worry about your clothes. As long as you're okay, it's fine. It's so cold. If you're still in the mountains at night, you'll probably freeze to death."
"That's not necessarily true. Longshan is really high. The key..." A Ming said and raised his eyebrows at Amao.
Having worked together for several years, Ah Mao already knew his character and asked lazily, "What's the key point? Tell me quickly!"
"The problem is there's a wild boar charging out to bite us," Amin said, gesturing exaggeratedly. "Do you know how big that wild boar is? It's almost two meters tall, must weigh 400 to 500 kilograms, and its tusks are this long."
Ah Mao stared: "Is there really such a big wild boar?"
Then he felt regretful: "Oh, if I had known earlier, I would have gone with Captain Lin. If we had killed such a big wild boar and dragged it back, we wouldn't have to buy meat for the New Year."
"You're still trying to kill it!" Ah Ming said in disgust. "Captain Lin and I didn't have time to dodge. It was too fast. How do you think our clothes got damaged? It was damaged while we were dodging. I accidentally fell down the mountain and broke my arm. That wild boar was also very smart and came straight at me. Captain Lin even blocked the wild boar to save me."
After hearing this, Lin Jingyu immediately pulled Lin Jingchun around anxiously.
"Brother, are you hurt anywhere?"
"No, there are just two holes on the back of the clothes." Lin Jingchun handed the leather jacket to Lin Jingyu to look at, and at the same time, he looked into his pockets and took out the pager, cigarette case and lighter. After thinking for a while, he touched the amulet on his chest.
That amulet was specially bought for him by his younger brother, so he can’t throw it away.
As soon as I put my hand in, I was stopped.
When I took it out, the amulet was nowhere to be found. My hands were covered in dust.
Lin Jingchun turned out his pocket in disbelief.
Still gray.
His action made everyone very curious.
"Captain Lin, is something lost?" Amin asked nervously.
Lin Jingyu said casually: "Hey, if it's lost, it's lost. I'll buy you a new one later."
"Amulet of peace."
"What?"
"I mean, the one I lost was the amulet you gave me this morning," Lin Jingchun said, waving his hands again. "No, it's not lost, it's turned to ash."
After saying this, he rubbed the two holes on the back of his leather jacket thoughtfully.
In fact, after he protected Amin on Longshan Mountain, he was also wondering why he was not injured. After escaping danger, he took off his clothes and let Amin check his back. Let alone wounds, even his skin was not scratched.
But how could a wild boar's tusks have pierced such a large hole in his leather coat, and he was only wearing a thin layer of clothing underneath, so how could he have escaped injury? They were perplexed on the way back.
After pinching the dust on his fingertips again, Lin Jingchun had a bold guess.
I’m afraid it’s because the amulet warded off disaster for him that it turned into ashes?
As soon as he said this, Amin clapped his hands violently.
"That's right, Captain Lin. You see, we went back and forth on the mountain so many times but couldn't get out. When a wild boar came out, we even ran back and forth. But after you protected me, the wild boar ran away and we successfully got down the mountain. It must be the effect of the amulet."
Ah Mao said dismissively: "Brother Ah Ming, don't be superstitious."
Lin Jingyu grinned: "Then my buddy's amulet is quite useful. Brother, I will buy another one with my buddy later."
Speaking of Su Chen, Lin Jingyu finally remembered the important matter and pulled Lin Jingchun out.
"Brother, something happened over there with Uncle Ye, I need your help."
Lin Jingchun was suspicious: "What's the matter?"
He knew that his younger brother would not bother him unless it was an urgent matter. His face darkened and he thought that some gangsters were really coming to cause trouble. Thinking that Old Ye was a man in his sixties or seventies who ran a shop and was alone and helpless, he did not care about being hungry all day and quickened his pace.
When they stepped into Ye Ji Noodle House, they saw yellow talismans pasted on the walls around the house.
Su Chen saw Lin Jingchun staring at the talismans with a strange look in his eyes, and touched his nose guiltily.
This guy is just a beginner in cultivation, not good enough to draw a Heavenly Thunder Talisman, so he can just barely draw a Lightning Attracting Talisman, and that's a low-level one at that. The key is that after drawing three, he has to rest for more than ten minutes before he can continue. Look, he has only drawn nine in such a long time.
However, it should be enough.
After all, Uncle Ye is not the hairy zombie from their world. He will not resist and is very cooperative.
Old Ye had already placed Awang's remains in the urn and touched them lovingly. He heard footsteps and came out. Seeing that it was Lin Jingchun, he reluctantly said hello: "Achun is here."
He was not wearing a coat at this moment, and Lin Jingchun could see the long hair on his face and hands clearly.
He was stunned: "Uncle Ye? Why are you..."
