In the evening, several people gathered again at Heizi's home. On the bed made of mud bricks, the faces of each of the people were heavier than the last.

"Where's Ji He?" Shen Lin looked at Zhang Yuan. Ji He was the one he arranged to follow Zhang Yuan. One was because this kid was just starting out and was out of place, so he needed someone to watch over him. The other was that Ji He's ghost was extremely weird. Shen Lin hoped that someone would be watching by his side at any time so that he could see something. He had a vague feeling that Ji He might have another way to solve the resurgence of terror.

"I got close to a villager at the door, and I heard that I found a great clue. Don't worry, although this guy is unreliable, he is still obedient. Since you specifically asked him, he won't do anything too outrageous." Zhang Yuan He pointed in the direction of the door with a helpless expression.

"Then let's ignore him for now and summarize the information we got. From what I've explored, the actual scope of this ghost domain is not too big. At least it doesn't look too big. Dongwang Village is the entire The core of the ghost domain, I have tried to go out from all directions in Dongwang Village, but I will eventually come back here. It is probably impossible to get out by ordinary means." Shen Lin pointed out the key point.

He said it very tactfully. In fact, whether they can get out is a big problem. Even the sixth-level ghost realm cannot feel the ghost realm changes of this ghost. In a short time, unless he allows the evil ghost to revive and forcibly open the seventh-level ghost realm. A gamble, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of the possibility of getting out. Even if he gambled like this, the chance of winning would be very slim.

"It's the same as here. Those who disappeared in Dongwang Village from 1965 to now have not left any trace here. Even these villagers except us don't remember any outsiders coming here within six months to a year. I just remember that the war was in turmoil, so I didn’t get to the bottom of this, for fear of irritating them and causing changes in the ghost realm, which would cause a negative reaction.” Zhang Yuan’s intelligence was also zero, and the whole afternoon’s operation was in vain, because they didn’t even have a pity for it. None of the possibilities were found.

"I have a lot of strange events and evil sects in the legend of Dongwang Village here. There are even a lot of them. There are underground tombs, which family in the east of the village is dead and not dead, and what kind of fox fairy repays kindness? Huang There are countless immortals seeking revenge and ghosts seeking their lives. I specifically asked Heizi if anyone had died mysteriously in the past six months to a year, and the answer was no. In the era of war and chaos, people either died without intact corpses, or were buried safely, and no one died because of this. .”

He Tu told Shen Lin the news he got from Heizi in detail, without adding any emotional color. He knew very well that his judgment of the situation was far inferior to Shen Lin's, and he had no in-depth contact with the Dongwang Village incident. , He Tu once again felt the extraordinaryness of Shen Lin. When the headquarters established the twelve captains, many pretentious people fought, thinking that the twelve people on the list were nothing remarkable. Now it seems that the ones appointed by the headquarters The list is not without reason.

None of these twelve people is simple.

After He Tu finished speaking, he found that Shen Lin and Zhang Yuan fell into a strange silence. The silence was a bit long, which made him a little impatient.

"You two should talk about anything. Is there any problem?"

"No, on the contrary, there is no problem at all. The remote mountain village is in chaos, and the scammers are making up things. The villagers are superstitious. A sentence passed down by word of mouth may change in the end. Those strange events you mentioned can It can be applied to any village in this era, but it is not suitable for Dongwang Village. These are not the key issues that turned this village into a ghost village." Shen Lin's eyes were dark, looking at the gradually darkening sky outside the window.

The darkness in the ghost realm is more terrifying than in reality. Countless experiences have taught Shen Lin to be timid towards darkness. The dark night in Fengmen Village almost killed him. The dark night at Guiwei Mountain almost made him completely revive. The epidemic ghost incident The dark night in the middle of the night almost brought the entire Daxia City to death.

Now, it's Dongwang Village's turn.

"Then what should I do? I'll go find Heizi and ask? Or someone else, someone older. Heizi is younger. Maybe he doesn't know some things." He Tu was a little anxious. He had never encountered such a ghost incident. , so far, obviously not a single ghost has been encountered, nothing has happened, but this comfortable happiness makes people feel hairy in the heart, including the remaining sunset, it may kill you in the next second. This is simply torture.

He Tu was about to go out, but Shen Lin stopped him.

"It's not necessary. You won't be able to find out anything if you go again. It's not that the villagers won't tell you. Maybe they really don't know. Maybe there's a cognitive bias, or the memory has been tampered with, or maybe it's all false. In short, There is a high probability that we will not get any clues from them."

All three roads were blocked. Even Shen Lin's calm character was a little anxious. His active role in the ghost incident meant that he and the others could only passively wait for everything to come. This is definitely not a good thing. The ghost will not die. The fight between humans and ghosts is inherently at a disadvantage. Being in a passive situation during a ghost incident means half your life is in the hands of a ghost.

Shen Lin must come up with a way to break the situation as soon as possible, and Shen Lin's teeth gradually clenched.

Just as he was talking, Ji He came back from the door, his face full of dejection.

"What, diplomat, did you get any important clues?" Zhang Yuan was having fun in his misery and laughed a few times, making Ji He's expression even more bitter.

"Nothing. The elder brother just kept asking me where I was from. I casually said I was from Dajing City, and he got very excited. He said that his Mandarin was not standard. He kept asking me to correct his Mandarin. I chatted After a long time, I didn’t even get a chance to interrupt, so I just corrected my Mandarin.” He stole the chicken but lost the rice. He went to get information and was tricked by others in Mandarin for a long time. It seemed that he wanted to perform well and acted like a hammer. It was embarrassing and huge. Ji He jumped off the building. The heart is there.

When he finished speaking, he found that the people in front of him did not laugh at him, especially Shen Lin and Zhang Yuan, who looked like they had seen a ghost.

"Where are the people?"

"What?" Ji He looked confused.

"Where's the person you're chatting with? Take us there." Shen Lin shouted.

Ji He hurriedly shouted, not daring to get to the bottom of it. He knew the priority and went out with a few people to chase him. Strangely enough, he was still at the door but no one was there when he left.

"Is there any problem?" He Tu showed a puzzled expression. He didn't notice anything was wrong.

"There have been many changes in Mandarin. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there were many targeted policies for language unification. There was also a similar action in the Republic of China, which was called Guoyu. It was not until 1955 in modern times that the central government revised it and changed its name to Mandarin. Consciousness Is there any problem?"

"This village disappeared in 1947. If so, the people in the village would not know the term Mandarin at all, but this person does! This means that he must be from after 1955. The first record of missing persons in Shennongjia is In 1965, this person was at least a person after 1965." He Tu suddenly realized that it would be difficult for someone who is not careful to notice the difference in timing.

"Our direction was wrong from beginning to end. They are not missing. They are here, they are in this village, and they are right in front of our eyes!"

Shen Lin's voice was low, his eyes were heavy, and the words he spoke made people couldn't help but feel chills running down their backs.

"It's those villagers!" Zhang Yuan exclaimed.

I will be a one-update beast again. I came back today and spent more than three hours building a TV cabinet. Because of this, my neighbors came to my door and said it was a nuisance. I really didn’t have time to code Chapter 2.
Chapter completed!
