Chapter 18 Mao Zi Hualang
I walked up and picked up a hard-shell scale as big as a baby's palm from the snow. When I looked carefully, I saw that the thing was hexagonal. The middle was thick and thin, black-brown, but there was an indescribable glow on the edge. It should have fallen off the body of a large creature somewhere. On one side, there was a little minced meat. Put it under the nose and took a deep breath, and you could smell a pungent fishy smell, and there was a little sweetness in the aftertaste.
I flicked my index finger lightly, and felt a metal echo, so I put it away, and then continued to patrol around, but I didn't find any more.
After walking around the barracks for a few circles, I walked away a little further. It looked like a seven or eight miles away, but it was a deserted farm. Because it was winter, the land was frozen solid, so it was also a terrible sign. I walked through this dilapidated farm with broken walls and saw very old houses and some abandoned tools.
I saw the land that had not been moved for a long time, and I felt a little confused and could tell. This place should have been a collective farm or something, but it has not been traced to farming for a long time. Could it be that it was because it was too close to the military camp and was abandoned for military secrets?
I spent a long time walking around the abandoned farm, and I always felt something was wrong. The air was sticky, giving people a very depressing feeling. I was pretty good. If an ordinary person came over, he might feel like he was on a plateau and couldn't breathe.
Hey, it's not right, something is really wrong.
I began to walk around here for a while, when Comrade Men Yulong, who was in charge of the local religious bureau, came over and greeted me loudly.
I walked out of a dilapidated brick house that was about to collapse and agreed to him.
Comrade Yulong is a deputy leader of the Mishan Municipal Bureau. Comrades who grew up locally have no strong cultivation. Fortunately, they are familiar with the local area. When I talked about my doubts, he hesitated for a moment before saying to me: "Director Chen, this farm is not because it is close to the military camp, but has been haunted since the 1970s. After being cured several times, it was abandoned."
"oh?"
I touched my chin and asked what was going on. Men Yulong told me that the farm was closed in the 1960s and 1970s to detain the rightists. The matter in that era was quite complicated. In short, many rightists were not adapted to the heavy physical labor and the cold weather and died in batches. Later, there was a case of rightists throwing into the lake. A total of nine people threw into the lake. Later, it was haunted and entangled here. Several leaders of the farm died suddenly, which scared no one dared to come here again.
I saw the Jade Dragon's words vaguely, raised my eyebrows and said calmly: "Oh, I'm really not used to it?"
Men Yulong shrugged and smiled, and said to me: "Director Chen, you know the things in that era, they are all messy and said they are not adaptable. In fact, most people starve to death or freeze to death. Some people were taken to the farm and there was not a single quilt for winter. How could something happen?"
He took me to the northeast corner of the abandoned farm. I indeed saw a small temple for sacrifice, with a divine stake nailed on it, which was obviously used to suppress the evil spirits underground.
I knew in my heart that the reason I felt my chest tightness just now was because this was a piece of evil land. Even though I was escorted by a master, evil spirits still leaked out.
It's okay during the day, but if you come here at night, you may encounter some dirty things.
After seeing the abandoned farm, I realized that this land was really evil. I felt a little moved and asked the Jade Dragon to take me to the place where nine people threw themselves into the lake thirty years ago to check it out. The Jade Dragon was the deputy head of the city below. He was naturally very flattering to me, the leader from the provincial bureau. He also took me with me personally and walked for more than half an hour to the shore of Xingkai Lake. At this moment, Xingkai Lake was frozen. He pointed to the thick ice layer on the lake and said to me: "It's been a long time, and the specific location is no longer verified. Maybe it's in this area."
I walked slowly by the frozen lake, imagining the scene decades ago, and I felt a little sad.
At this time, the cold wind whirred into his neck. The Jade Dragon was trembling with coldness. However, when I was with me, I had to grit my teeth and persevere. I saw it and didn't say much. Instead, I walked slowly for a while, and then turned around and asked Men Yulong: "Comrade Xiaomen, from a professional perspective, what do you think the biggest reason for this disappearance case is?"
The Yulong of the Men was waiting beside me with full vigilance. When he heard my question, his mind immediately became active, pursed his lips, and then said, "Director Chen, I dare not say much if there is an outsider here, but since it is a private conversation, I think there are two possibilities. The first is the Dragon King Temple upstream of Xingkai Lake. There has always been a legend that there is a dragon flying here. Although it has not appeared in a century, if it comes out, I am afraid that these people will suddenly disappear. The second is that it may be the vengeful spirit in the lake..."
I pointed back and said calmly: "Are you saying that the dead people are dissatisfied and gathered into resentful spirits in the lake, come back to find trouble for strangers?"
Men Yulong didn't dare to look at my eyes, lowered his head and said, "These are just a little guess..."
He said this, but my eyes looked into the distance. The Yulong looked along my gaze. On the frozen lake in the distance, two groups of people were running wildly, frozen like solid soil. These people walked like flying, and they knew they were not ordinary people at first glance. I squinted my eyes and saw that there were weapons in both sides' hands. The latter was coming in a fierce manner, as if they wanted to kill the former quickly; and the person in front looked a little familiar, a little like...
Yes, that boy was Luomantun’s little medicine box, which triggered Qinghe Yichuan to come to China to play.
Since I knew each other, I would not let this bloody incident happen in front of me. I was also instructing the Jade Dragon of the Sect to stop moving, and I gently tapped my toes and ran towards the frozen lake.
The two sides were quite far away, but my speed was indeed very fast. I took advantage of the extremely small resistance on the ice and walked like a flying. I soon came close to me. Then I found that the group of people chasing the little medicine box were five Russians with deep concave eyes, high nose bridges, and blue eyes. These Russian brothers, commonly known as the old men by the people of the Northeast, were extremely strong. They were all like brown bears who had been in winter, but their speed was extremely fast. Even the little medicine box was as fast as an arrow, they could follow closely.
I have seen that little medicine box, and he is a good master among young people. He has also been named one of the few future stars in Northeast China who can support the scene. However, he is chased by someone at this moment, but he doesn't even have the courage to fight. I think the Russians should be very powerful characters.
My intervention immediately disrupted the situation on the lake. The strong old men muttered at me, as if they wanted to drive me away and not meddling in other people's business. A shorter guy roared, kicked the ground with his toes, and suddenly soared into the air. After turning over a few times, he blocked the retreat of Xiaoyaozi and then shouted at the other party. Only then did I see Xiaoyaozi holding a black wooden box in his arms, looking around, as if he seemed very panicked.
When the Russians stopped, they immediately surrounded him. Then they took out a sharp military spear, shouted loudly, and rushed towards the small medicine box.
Each of these five Russians had a much burly figure than Xiao Yaozi. When they pounced in like this, they were like an eagle catching a chicken. I looked around and found that the Russians were all as strong as bears, and their power was very terrifying. With one punch, they could actually smash a big hole in the thick ice layer. The way they used the military spear was definitely a fighting skill in the army. Although Xiao Yaozi was very skilled, they were suppressed by these five people and could not be used at all, and they were in danger.
But even so, he still held the black wooden box in his hand tightly, but refused to let go.
The group of people was fighting lively on the lake, but they put me aside. I looked at it with anger and amused for a while and found that the little medicine box was at a disadvantage. I also shouted loudly and asked the Russians to stop. After the warning was invalid, I rushed into the battle group without hesitation, raised my hand and fisted to fight with the Russians.
These Russians are strong and have good hair, but they are far from me. With their eyes and earth shields, I pushed the group of people into pieces and fell, but because I didn't know much about the situation, I couldn't do anything ruthlessly, just wanted to subdue a few people.
Cheng Yaojin, who came out halfway, angered the five old men. He immediately gave up the medicine box and rushed in, trying to knock me down first. As a result, after being filled with old fists, he finally understood the gap between the two sides and turned around and ran away. How could I let these people come and go freely? Just as I was about to stop them, I heard a shrill howl. The little man in the lead suddenly shook and lie down to the ground. Then many thick hairs grew all over his body, which turned into a brown-haired wolf and ran towards the deep center of the lake.
With the demonstration of that little man, the other four people turned into giant wolf of different colors and fled in a hurry. I was surprised to see it and forgot to chase it.
