Hu Ling followed Wang Jin step by step, as obediently as a child following his senior on an outing.
There was nothing she could do about it, the professionalism that Wang Jin showed in just ten minutes was far beyond her imagination.
Look for clues, eliminate hidden dangers, and choose a path.
He didn't even need to think, everything was as simple as eating and drinking.
Hu Ling even inexplicably recalled the feeling of being led on a mission for the first time when he first joined the company.
There is nothing to do and no need to worry about problems.
Danger will be nipped in the cradle before it emerges.
Feeling this long-lost sense of security from a seventeen-year-old junior made Hu Ling a little overwhelmed.
"What's wrong?"
The young man started to dismantle the twelfth trap in front of him and asked with a smile.
Without secondary ghost stories, the way forward becomes more difficult to find.
Fortunately, Wang Jin has excellent observation skills and can find the direction through various details such as footprints and dust coverage.
In addition, he discovered many traps.
These traps were not ordinary pit darts, but all kinds of charms that he had never seen before.
Obviously, it was an old friend who laid the trap.
Fortunately, Lu Zhishou didn't know that Wang Jin could suppress the strange items through contact, otherwise he wouldn't have given these items in vain.
During this period, Hu Ling followed behind, taking a breath of cold air from time to time, or praising Wang Jin.
It's like an atmosphere group.
Wang Jin didn't feel that Hu Ling was holding him back, after all, this woman was really fierce in a fight.
I'll leave the investigation to myself, and I can let Hu Ling come in when I meet the thing causing trouble.
"How did you..."
Hu Ling composed words and gestures, but sighed at the end.
"never mind."
There were too many questions to ask, and it was difficult for Wang Jin to keep up with his brain.
Just be obedient and be a waste.
"Probably practice makes perfect."
The young man seemed to have read through Hu Ling's thoughts and took the initiative to explain.
"If I didn't have these, I might have died a few years ago."
"A few years ago? You mean..."
Hu Ling blinked, seeming a little surprised.
Wang Jin only joined the company at the end of last year, but he seems to have quite a lot of experience.
But at that time, he was still a boy of thirteen or fourteen.
This is crazy.
"It was a thrilling childhood, right? I have to thank that bastard who played Missing for all of this... It was so thoughtful."
Wang Jin twitched his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes.
"I heard that he was related to the incident seventeen years ago, so I waded into this muddy water without hesitation."
"Feel sorry."
Hu Ling didn't know what expression to make, so he just apologized blankly.
She realized that she had been wrong about Wang Jin all along.
This kid is not the type to grow up slowly by hiding behind his seniors.
No one has ever protected him from the wind and rain.
If you want to survive, you can only continue to become stronger, your movements become agile, and your mind becomes clearer.
Years of suffering did not defeat him, but instead made a bright star rise in the world of ghost stories.
"This is a talent that cannot be rated at all..."
Hu Ling smiled, his eyes full of relief.
"call…"
Wang Jin didn't care about Hu Ling's inner thoughts.
He stopped suddenly and blocked his body with half of the earth wall.
After roughly confirming the situation, he took out the shotgun from his arms.
Insert two white phosphorus bombs.
White phosphorus and thermite have many things in common, but there is one most basic difference.
White phosphorus bombs burn quickly and violently, but the temperature is not as high as thermite bombs.
More suitable for dealing with flammable creatures.
"Coming."
Hu Ling collected her thoughts, quietly took Du Kang out of his sheath and held it in his hand.
"The enemy is very old and female."
"Besides...there are also some feline characteristics."
Wang Jin frowned and showed Hu Ling the hair he found.
Although it is messy and mottled, it can be roughly divided into two types.
Slightly long silver-white curly hair, and thick brown animal hair.
No matter what kind of hair it is, it feels quite weird.
Even just looking at it makes me feel uncomfortable.
"I probably have a guess in my mind."
Wang Jin sighed, his face full of solemnity.
He grew up in Liaoning and is very familiar with the rumors nearby.
In addition, Hu Xiaobei always likes to talk about these things when he has nothing to do. Even if Wang Jin has not experienced it, he can understand the general idea.
"This incident should have first appeared near Harbin...that is, Leonard's hometown."
"I heard that there was a big fuss at the time, and it was later resolved by Black Mama, the leader of the Hundred People's Resentment."
"It seems that when Bai Renwen was lost, she also lost her sense of caution and let this thing escape."
"You're talking about..."
Hu Ling raised an eyebrow.
Wang Jin had reached this point, and she would be really stupid if she couldn't guess it anymore.
It is said that at that time, all schools gave children red strings that had been sanctified by the temple... In fact, those were portable mysteries that the governing bureau rushed out overnight.
There is only one weird story in recent years that has had such an influence.
At that time, Hu Ling had not yet left Northeast China and had heard about this incident.
So she walked forward slowly and turned to look at the other side of the earthen wall.
Just hit a cat face.
There are even wrinkles on the corners of the eyes that are unique to humans.
The cat's face grinned, showing a strange smile.
"Damn it!"
Hu Ling swung his sword and slashed out, only to find that the opponent's figure had mysteriously disappeared.
There was only a faint sound of cat meowing in the air.
Obviously, the opponent has the ability to hide his figure.
boom!
Without any hesitation, Wang Jin pushed the barrel of the gun through the earth wall and pulled the trigger.
The bird-hunting bullets loaded at the beginning took effect instantly.
The tiny steel balls covered a considerable area, revealing the figure of a creature hiding not far away.
Judging from the back, she is an old lady wearing cloth.
But when she turned around and looked over, she revealed a face that was half human and half cat.
Saliva was dripping from his cracked upper lip, and his green eyes were shining.
This is a strange story that once shocked the whole city.
Cat-faced old lady.
Wang Jin happened to have heard this story.
More than ten years ago, medicine was not very developed, and most villages did not know what death diagnosis was.
Therefore, people who are still half alive are often buried directly.
Those people will wake up during the bumpy process, which is why there is a theory of corpse fraud.
In order to prevent this from happening, many places have the custom of burying a body in an open coffin after death.
There are many specialties in mortuary, one of which is that not a single animal can be seen in the entire mourning hall.
Especially those old cats and dogs that have been raised for more than ten years.
They have lived for too long and have almost become monsters.
Once such things collide with the mourning hall, the last breath of the dying people will be leaked.
As a result, his body was taken away by an animal with some moral character, and he became a monster that only knew how to suck the flesh and blood of living creatures.
The disciples who came out called this situation "Qi Chuan".
That's what the cat-faced old lady is like.
During her morgue, she was strangled by a wild cat and turned into a half-human, half-cat monster who sat up from the coffin.
But the children of the cat-faced old lady didn't think so. They just thought that their mother should not die, so they started to support her.
Soon, they discovered something unusual.
The old lady who came here by pretending to be a corpse didn't eat anything all day, she just sat on the kang and cursed at her children, and from time to time she would start walking on all fours.
If it's just that, it's nothing.
But gradually, someone discovered that she would go out at night to look for small animals such as chickens and ducks, break her neck and suck their blood.
At first no one cared about this, just thinking it was a wild beast in the village.
Until later, the cattle in the village were drained of blood.
If you can suck a cow dry...it's not a beast.
So the villagers hired hunters and finally found the old lady.
The shotgun was pressed against the old lady's cat-like face, but her children tried to stop her and killed the hunter with one knife.
Then let the monster go.
At this time, the cat-faced old lady already had a certain degree of ability, and the animal blood gradually became unable to satisfy her.
So this monster targeted the students.
Soon, the bodies of many students whose stomachs had been cut open and whose internal organs had been hollowed out were found throughout Harbin.
Some people even witnessed the child leaving with a stranger in a daze, not knowing what kind of witchcraft was involved.
So people began to be afraid, and the story of the cat-faced old lady spread more and more widely.
Parents picked up and dropped off students in person, schools distributed amulets, and some elementary schools even began to close classes.
Then, everything suddenly disappeared.
Only a few people know that Black Mother, who has been in seclusion for many years, has taken action.
But the cat-faced old lady is still the childhood shadow of many people.
But now, this strange thing appeared in front of Wang Jin.
The aura is even more powerful than the legend says.
"Damn...this is the shadow of my childhood."
The young man cursed angrily and jumped over the earth wall.
But the monster has disappeared again.
The bird-hunting bullet that Wang Jin fired just now even fell to the ground quietly, as if it had only hit the air from the beginning.
"Half-spirit."
Hu Ling frowned and spoke, the Dukang buzzing in his hand, but he still couldn't find the target.
She understands now.
No wonder we encountered so many difficulties when we were chasing the cat-faced old lady.
This thing has killed too many people, and now it has become a very scary ghost story.
Although the killing efficiency is not too high, in terms of strength, the threat it brings to Wang Jin is almost only less than that of Feast.
Although the cat-faced old lady does not have that terrifying self-healing ability, she comes and goes without a trace, making it difficult to guard against.
