The vehicle from the special operations team was moving fast on the road.
Wei Yuan was holding the child in the car, and he told the story of the mountain in a brief and calm language, including how he found Dong Yu's trace, how he chased him, and how he missed a step, Dong Yu had completed his revenge, Liu Chao and the other two were killed, and then he found the information from Liu Chao.
As for the appearance of the old Taoist priest, the latter had instructed him before he went down the mountain, so he didn't mention it.
The atmosphere in the car became more and more solemn.
Song Huaihua closed his eyes and recited the Taoist scriptures, his face was compassionate.
Xuan Yi lowered his head and said nothing.
His fingers were tightly clenched.
Zhou Yi had put out the cigarette early, and he felt depressed and wanted to smoke another one. Because of the child, he took his hand back and said, "So, Liu Chao is a human trafficker, and the one on the mountain is also an accomplice of human trafficking?"
Wei Yuan nodded.
Zhou Yi was silent for a while, and her tone turned cold. She said:
"We will handle this matter."
Wei Yuan looked at the child in his arms. She was still very young and slept a lot. Now she was drowsy and fell asleep. Her little hand pulled Wei Yuan's sleeve. Wei Yuan paused and said: "And her... I will take care of this child for a few days. After that, please return this child to Dong Yu's parents."
"In addition, she hopes that you can keep the origin of this child and Dong Yu's experience a secret. This is her last wish."
Zhou Yi nodded seriously: "No problem."
......
No words along the way.
After Zhou Yi and the other two sent Wei Yuan back to the museum, they hurried back to the police station with the information.
It can be imagined that the police in Quan City and even the entire Jiangnan Road will have huge actions next.
But it has nothing to do with Wei Yuan.
Life was back on track afterwards. He took care of the child for the time being, and then drew talismans, practiced swordsmanship, meditated, and visited museums. Although he didn't want to get involved in these things, sometimes things couldn't be avoided or escaped, so Wei Yuan had to make some preparations.
Three days later, the child was taken away by Zhou Yi.
Later, they would find a suitable reason to arrange to send her back to the Dong family.
Her identity would be the child of Dong Yu and a man from an orphanage, but the couple had suffered misfortune.
The Dong family couple would be the only blood relatives of the child.
On the day the child was taken away, Wei Yuan went out with a black umbrella.
......
Liu City.
Wei Yuan walked out of the high-speed rail station and took a taxi.
Then he gave the address familiarly, and the taxi driver, who spoke a local dialect, sent Wei Yuan to the destination while chatting.
Garden Community.
Wei Yuan looked around, walked skillfully to the ninth floor of unit three, and then pressed the doorbell of the door on the left.
"Who is it..."
"Hello, Auntie, I'm Dong Yu's friend, I came to see you two old people..."
With a creak, the security door opened from the inside, revealing a somewhat old face, who should be just around fifty years old, but the white hair could no longer cover it, and he looked like he was in his sixties. It was just because there was a visitor, and it was his daughter's friend, that he was a little more energetic and looked a little more energetic.
"Old Dong, Old Dong, there are guests."
She looked Wei Yuan up and down, called inside, then stepped aside to let Wei Yuan in, and said:
"Come in and sit down, come in and sit down."
Wei Yuan glanced at Dong Yu, who had already shed tears, thanked him, and walked in.
Dong Yu's father also came out from the inner room.
She also looked a little old, but her hair was still combed neatly, and she looked a little serious. Wei Yuan put the fruits she brought on the table. Dong Yu's father didn't believe what Wei Yuan said, but Dong Yu was right next to him. After a question-and-answer conversation, it was naturally flawless. He gradually believed that this was indeed his daughter's friend, and his expression eased.
Dong's mother picked up the teapot and found it was empty. She said:
"Ah, look, you were so busy chatting that you didn't even get tea. I'll go get some water."
Wei Yuan stood up and said, "I'll go, auntie."
The water dispenser was at the corner of the living room.
When Wei Yuan was carrying three cups to pour water, Dong Yu's soul was next to him. Wei Yuan followed her words, put Piao Xuehua tea in one cup, scooped a spoonful of honey in another cup, and put plain water in his own cup, and took it back.
Dong Tongwen held the teacup and finally couldn't help asking, "Xiao Wei, you are Ayu's friend. Have you been in touch with her recently?" Wei Yuan shook his head and said, "No." "But she is a very good person and should have a good life." Dong Tongwen still had a look of regret on his face. He habitually put his hand around the cup and smelled the tea. Dong's mother looked even more disappointed. She used the action of drinking water to cover up the disappointment on her face and the tears that almost flowed out, and then she was slightly stunned. It was honey water. When her daughter was around, she would always make this for her to drink. The water temperature was also what she was used to. It was as if Ayu had made it for her personally. She held the cup and couldn't help but be in a trance. Wei Yuan raised his eyes slightly and looked at Dong Yu sitting on the sofa opposite. Is there anything else you want to ask? Dong Yu wiped her tears and looked at her parents who were much older than she remembered. She opened her mouth and said, "Dad, Mom, I miss you so much. You have to be well. Your daughter may not be able to visit you in the future..." Wei Yuan held the water cup and looked at the Dong couple and said: "Uncle and aunt, no matter where Ayu is, she must be thinking of you." "We also hope that you can be healthy." Dong Tongwen sighed, "We also hope that she is well. Alas, we are all old, so we just hope that she can live a better life and not suffer any grievances. Besides, my body is still good, and it is not time to worry her yet." Dong Yu choked up and said, "Your waist has been injured, but you are still stubborn." "Mom, you have to take care of him too. Don't let him drink too much in the future..." Wei Yuan changed his tone and passed Dong Yu's words to the two old people. The old man then answered, with an expression on his face that was either grateful or surprised that Wei Yuan knew these things.
Dong Yuze kept saying those words that he had wanted to say to his parents for a long time, but it was too late.
Wei Yuan conveyed.
Slowly, Wei Yuan had an illusion.
Although he was the one who spoke, talking to the two old people, he was just a bystander. He sat here, a passerby, quietly watching the family of three over there who he hadn't seen for a long time. The daughter cared about the old man, and seemed to complain because of the old man's stubbornness. The old man was unwilling to accept his age, which made the child anxious and angry.
He took a sip of the water cup and leaned back a little on the sofa.
His expression was quiet, "watching" this scene.
The wall clock on the wall rang, and the conversation stopped.
It was already past six in the afternoon.
But the conversation seemed to be a little unfinished.
Dong Tongwen and his wife both felt a little strange. They were not the kind of people who would be so enthusiastic about meeting someone for the first time, but for some reason today, they always felt like talking more, and they did not feel strange to the young man in front of them, as if they had known each other for a long time.
Dong Tongwen stood up and tried to persuade him to stay:
"It's so late, Xiao Wei, why don't you just stay and have a quick meal here today."
Wei Yuan smiled and said, "That's fine."
"I've heard from Ayu that uncle and auntie's cooking skills are unique. They have stir-fried pork with green onions, braised prawns, hand-wrapped dumplings, and sesame noodles. I've heard her talk about these many times. I've been craving for a long time. It's a rare opportunity today, so I must enjoy it."
Dong Tongwen rarely smiled: "Just like Ayu, greedy."
Wei Yuan, or Dong Yu, went to buy vegetables with his parents.
Wei Yuan helped out.
Dong Yu sat on the sofa, staring blankly at the three busy people over there.
Finally, the table was full of dishes. There were four sets of bowls and chopsticks for three people. Dong Tongwen habitually placed an extra set of bowls and chopsticks in front of the braised prawns. Then he was stunned for a moment, rubbed his eyes, and said softly: "I'm used to it. Ayu likes this dish the most..."
"Take away these bowls and chopsticks."
Wei Yuan shook his head and smiled: "It's better to leave them."
"Yeah."
The three of them sat down, and Dong Yu also sat in front of the bowls and chopsticks.
A meal, eating and chatting, just like every ordinary day in the past.
After eating, Wei Yuan stood up and said goodbye, just smiled and packed a portion of each dish. The Dong family couple sent him to the door, and then went to clean up the bowls and chopsticks on the table. Dong Yu stood at the door, wiped his tears hard, turned around and smiled brightly at his parents, and waved:
"Dad, Mom, I'm leaving."
The Dong family couple did not respond, they were still packing things and talking softly.
As a mortal, unless you are entangled with a god, you cannot see ghosts or hear ghost sounds.
Dong Yu's eyes were red, and she turned and left.
Dong's mother, who was cleaning the dishes in the room, raised her head and looked at the door:
"Old Dong, did you hear your daughter's voice just now?"
Dong Tongwen paused, then said:
"Maybe it was hallucination again."
"We are all old."
Wei Yuan leaned against the security door, looking at Dong Yu who appeared next to him, with almost no resentment and obsession on her body. He raised his hand to collect her soul with the ghost-exorcism technique, glanced at the Dong family, picked up the black umbrella next to him, turned around and walked away, and gently tapped the black umbrella on the steps.
As a mortal, you cannot see ghosts or hear ghost sounds.
However, if it is the beloved...
......
Wei Yuan bought a large insulated lunch box and put the food in it.
Then he took the last high-speed train back to the museum in Quan City, and then he put the still warm meals on plates one by one, put them on the table, dipped his blood as a spell, made the three mountain fingers, and whispered: "Cold nectar food, the taste of Dharma food is immeasurable, the seven treasures of Qianhe flow, what is the obstacle in the dark, accept this Dharma food, ascend to the sky and ascend to Ziwei, the blessings are high and majestic, and the food makes you pure..."
Taoist nectar Dharma food spell.
Ghosts and spirits can only eat blessed Dharma food.
Wei Yuan sat down.
And Dong Yu, whose resentment was almost gone, sat in front of him, looking exactly like he did when he was alive.
She ate several braised prawns and some other dishes, rubbed her eyes, and smiled softly:
"Sure enough, it's still so oily. You can't find such dishes in Jiangnan Road. The dumplings are pork and celery, which is also good..."
"Owner, our food is actually quite ordinary, right?"
"But, for me, nothing tastes better than these..."
"The most important thing about this sesame sauce noodles is the sesame sauce, and then the pepper oil. After the good pepper is fried, you need to put a handful of dried shrimps and soy sauce in a big bowl. Put it in the cooked noodles, add some cucumber shreds and peanuts, and mix it a little. It's really delicious..."
Wei Yuan listened to her, then picked up the teacup and drank the tea with his head tilted back.
The woman's voice became more and more ethereal, and finally could not be heard.
There was a slight sound, and the chopsticks fell on the table.
Wei Yuan slowly put down the teacup.
There was no one on the opposite side.
