Chapter 118 The weird perfume shop

Lu Fuji's heart was already filled with turmoil. He took out his mobile phone and wanted to take this photo. He couldn't help but ask one more question: "Can I take it?"

His expression became particularly solemn for the first time.

Because the clues were sorted out, everything matched up.

If the researchers who had the car accident were his parents.

The ancient existence in the sacred mountain has lost its core.

A terminal illness that is inexplicably incurable.

Parasitism of the seed of the gods.

If he can finally determine what is in the holy mountain, then all his tragic experiences in the past ten years will be able to find the answer.

Chen Jing thought for a while, shook his head and said, "You can do whatever you want, but if someone finds out, you may be held accountable. But I think with your character, you shouldn't be afraid of being checked, right?"

She was answered with a click.

After Lu Buer took the photo, he turned around and asked, "Miss Chen, did your father say anything else to you? If you think about it carefully, there may be important clues. The reason why Medanzo chose to explore the Holy Mountain may be because of the brotherhood. The original discovery has something to do with it.”

Chen Jing crossed his arms and thought carefully: "I can't say there is none, but it may not be of much value. I heard from my father that when Constantine returned from the Holy Mountain, the brotherhood broke up. This seems to be because, They had a disagreement about something. In the end, Constantine left for the Catholic City, and Bertrand Russell chose to follow him. My ancestor stayed and changed his career to develop a groundwater company. The remaining two, Founded Seven Star Pharmaceuticals and Morgan Consortium respectively."

Lu Fuji touched his chin and began to analyze.

But I can't think of any clue.

"Later, my father said that the brotherhood seemed to have reached some kind of agreement before it disbanded. I don't know what the specific agreement was, but I heard that before my ancestor died, he once angrily scolded the brothers who had gone through life and death together in his early years and scolded them. It’s a liar.”

Chen Jing whispered: "I am mainly criticizing the previous monarch and the Russell family."

Lu Buer's heart moved slightly: "What happened next?"

"According to my ancestor's will, he once wanted his descendants to leave Linhai. However, my ancestors were not willing to part with their family business in this city, so they stayed. But with more than a hundred years of In the past, there was a saying passed down by my ancestors.”

Chen Jing's eyes flickered: "This is a cursed city."

Lu Fuji was stunned for a moment: "Curse city?"

Chen Jing waved: "Follow me."

Lu Buer followed her to a dusty study room and found the dusty safe in the corner. There were no valuables in it, only a thick stack of information.

“I watched my father study this material when I was a kid.”

Chen Jing handed these to him: "See for yourself."

Lu Buer looked through it carefully. These were some of the information saved by the Chen Group when it was first established. From specific revenue to financial statements, as well as groundwater hydrology surveys, water pump design drawings, etc., he was impressed by what he saw. Feeling dizzy and irritable.

Until a ruling in a judicial dispute piqued his interest.

The cause of the incident was that the residents near Waste Factory Street believed that there was something wrong with their drinking water, which caused the children of the neighbors to be poisoned.

After testing, it was confirmed that it was a water quality problem.

The Chen Group's approach was quite decent and they did not choose to go to court.

Instead, lose money directly.

Over the past 100 years, there have been many judicial rulings similar to this.

There are also many cases of citizens being poisoned by drinking water.

Factories, colleges, hospitals, and even the military.

There are more or less problems with drinking water.

Among the forensic materials, there are photos of the poisoned persons.

Deer Fuji took a closer look and saw that his skin was ulcerated!

"Fuck."

Lu Fuji was surprised: "Did the phenomenon of dark matter infection appear a hundred years ago? At first, there were only a few cases, but later on, more and more people became infected. The disease was mild at first, but it can still be cured Yes. But later on, it became more and more serious.”

The Chen Group has grown from a small factory to a large company, but in the process it has always been involved in lawsuits due to water poisoning, and the crisis in public opinion has never subsided.

Until they completely completed the industrial transformation.

All its factories have also been outsourced, and these things have stopped.

Snapped.

A yellowed diary was slapped in front of him.

"This is the diary left by my ancestors."

Chen Jing said expressionlessly: "Many people in our family will write some things in their diaries, recording some of the things my ancestors wrote before they died."

Lu Fuji opened it and took a look. Sure enough, the front part was torn off, leaving only the last few pages with scrawled writing: "I stayed in this city because I wanted to protect the secret. However, I didn't expect that, The gates of hell have been opened and this city is cursed.”

"One of us betrayed me, but I don't know who that person is!"

"Over the years, more and more people have been cursed, and the dark sides in their hearts have been brought out. I have tried to compensate, but I have no face to face them. I know clearly that with the awakening of that great being, the flow of What comes out will be richer and richer.”

"Perhaps Constantine is right. This city has been cursed from the beginning. Whether we have violated the taboo has nothing to do with it. That terrible thing will come out sooner or later. The immortal flower will one day bloom. Every corner of the world.”

"The pair of researchers who had a car accident delayed the disaster for four hundred years, but they still could not completely solve the root cause of the disaster. If my descendants do not leave this city according to my will, then I will We can only pray that they survive this disaster."

Next are some things written by Chen Lan's descendants.

"As I approach the end of my life, I feel that my father is making a fuss out of a molehill. Are you kidding me about leaving this city? Our family has a big business, why should we just leave? I can't bear it! It's just that there was a problem with the location where the water plant was built, and the water quality is poisonous. It’s not a big deal, just pay for it!”

"But I think things are not that simple. What my grandfather said seems to make sense. There is indeed something unusual in this city. More and more people are suffering from water poisoning. After those people are poisoned, their whole temperament will change drastically. It has to feel strange.”

"Great-grandfather is right, we should leave this city! Now someone is targeting me, and those people selling perfume have come to my door! Damn it, I already said it, I don't know anything . It turns out that not only those people will be poisoned by the water, but we have actually been affected. Now there is no point in leaving the city."

"Those who sell perfume will specifically find people infected with dark matter. They use fragrance to suppress the rotten smell, and use perfume to treat corruption...many people cannot withstand the temptation!"

"Today, on my way home from get off work, I met that perfume shop again. This perfume shop is so weird that it can appear anywhere in the city out of thin air. Don't go into that perfume shop, don't get close to it Those people with strange smells on their bodies are all crazy! My dear daughter, if you really see this perfume shop one day, don’t believe whatever they tell you. If you can, run away at all costs !”

"Those lunatics claim that only their perfume can remove pollution. But don't think that I don't know that Long Hao used that kind of perfume to..."

The last paragraph was left by Chen Jing's father.

But the last page of this diary was torn out.

"Who tore it?"

Lu Fuji raised his head and asked.

"do not know."

Chen Jing shook his head and answered.

Lu Fuji was silent for a moment, and a series of connections quickly flashed through his mind. After the brotherhood was disbanded, they agreed to keep a secret.

Chen's ancestors are the ones responsible for guarding this secret.

It was not until later in life that he discovered that he had been deceived.

Constantine violated that secret long ago and opened Pandora's box, which caused the entire city to be cursed, and the dark matter flowed in the groundwater, polluting the citizens.

Over the past 100 years, pollution has become increasingly serious.

After those people are infected, their psychology will become dark.

This is precisely the breeding ground for the corpse-eating cult.

"What's up with those perfume shops?"

Lu Fuji murmured: "Tower of Babel?"

"I do not know either."

There was a trace of confusion in Chen Jing's eyes, and she said softly: "The perfume shop that appeared out of thin air is indeed very strange. Back then, my father would vomit when he saw the perfume or smelled the perfume. That was probably the biggest problem in his life. nightmare."

Lu Fuji put all these things into his pocket and said in a deep voice: "Since Long Que went to help you kill your uncle, then these things should be taken away by me."

When the time comes, you should give Longque a look and then make a decision.

Other than that, there's nothing of value in this room.

However, at this moment, Lu Fuji suddenly discovered something was wrong, because after the cold wind blew away the dust on the floor, complicated and strange lines appeared.

This pattern seemed familiar to him.

Seems like I've seen it somewhere.

Wait a moment.

Underground ruins.

Underground ruins in an underground neighborhood.

Xue Lian once told him that the reason why the underground ruins had not been discovered for so many years was because of a special kind of protection that exerted a hidden effect.

Lu Fuji leaned over and wiped off the dust, and examined it carefully for a moment: "Sure enough, the patterns on these floors are exactly the same as the patterns on the rock walls in the underground ruins!"

No wonder the founder of the Chen Group is a keeper of secrets.

Constantine was covering it all up.

"Wait a minute."

He suddenly remembered a question and suddenly turned around and asked: "Ms. Chen, when the Chen Group was established, where was the water plant originally chosen to be built?"

Chen Jing was silent for a second and walked to the window.

The white fingers pointed into the distance.

Lu Buer looked up and saw the old water plant site in the distance.

"this place……"

He quickly took out his phone and opened the map.

At this sight, he was startled.

The water plant originally built by the Chen Group was directly above the underground ruins.

"The original explosion may not have been that simple."

Lu Fuji whispered to himself: "The existence in the holy mountain, the secret of the Brotherhood, the cursed city, and the people who were inspired by the dark side, the birth of the Corpse Food Cult. Especially the weird perfume, which is actually related to the dragon Shi, this is too important to Longque..."

He thought for a moment and strode downstairs.

Dongshan didn't know how to investigate the case, so he just sat on the sofa and waited.

He got up when he saw Lu Fuji coming down.

"How about it?"

Dongshan asked.

Lu Fuji glanced at him and lowered his voice: "Let me ask you something. When you were in the Corpse Food Cult, did you see any clues about perfume?"

"perfume?"

Dongshan was stunned: "I remember that crazy woman liked perfume very much!"

Lu Fuji was silent for a moment and immediately opened the communication channel.

"Longque, I have something important here..."

Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door of the old house.

The old driver frowned and opened the door: "Who is it?"

At the door was a girl wearing a peaked cap, a white down jacket, and carrying a delicate bag in her hand. A strange fragrance hit her face: "Excuse me, do you need perfume?"

She smiled slightly, showing a ferocious and bloodthirsty smile.

"Quickly open!"

Lu Fuji suddenly roared.

A click of the knife.

The veteran driver was hit on the shoulder and staggered back a few steps.

The girl selling perfume did not target him, but stared at the boy on the sofa with a strange smile: "You are such a sweet and delicious boy, do you need perfume?"

She held a fruit knife in her hand and rushed towards it like a ghost.

Dongshan has quick eyes and quick hands. He jumps on the table and punches out!

boom!

Unexpectedly, Dongshan was kicked out in the end.

The burly body smashed through the wall and fell into the backyard.

The girl selling perfume did not pursue him. She stared at the dull boy on the sofa again, gently raised the fruit knife in her hand and asked, "Do you need perfume?"

Lu Fuji took a deep breath.

"I love your second uncle!"
