"Blood corpse!?" Ma Long was confused when he heard the villagers' demands. "What is a blood corpse?"
At this time, another middle-aged man came out and said: "Master, among the passengers who came with you yesterday, one of them did not listen to the warning and secretly ran to the back mountain at night. Until now,
He hasn't come back yet, so I think he was caught by the bloody corpse and eaten in the cave."
"What!" Ma Long was surprised. Just now, Ma Long followed the bus into the village. There were not even a hundred but eighty people who got off the bus. Most of them were tourists who came here to visit. How could this happen?
Disappeared for no reason?
Ma Long asked quickly: "Then why don't you go into the mountains to look for it?"
As soon as these words came out, the villagers looked at each other with expressions of depression and helplessness. The same man from before sighed and said, "If we go in to search, I'm afraid we won't be able to get out. There are bloody corpses in that cave, and every time we
We warn people who travel here, but almost every time someone cannot help but be curious, break into the cave to find out, and then never return."
"So serious?" Ma Long's face couldn't help but become a little solemn, "What about the high priest? Can't she get rid of that bloody corpse?"
"It seems to be ten years ago. The high priest did go in once, and then he came out with injuries. It took more than a year just to recuperate. The high priest's current health is not good. It is the root cause of the disease at that time. It seems to be
I've been poisoned by some kind of corpse poison and it can't get out. That's why we want to ask the gods to help me get rid of this harm!"
"Yes!" Another first-time citizen said, "There are two disasters in our village. One is drought, and the other is this bloody corpse. I seem to have heard my family mention it since I was very young, but no one can remove the blood.
No one knows how long the bloody corpse has been in that cave. That area of mountainous land is always a restricted area, and no one dares to step into it."
Ma Long saw that everyone was sincere, and it didn't seem to be exaggeration or falsehood. However, he was thinking of leaving here soon. If he interfered with the bloody corpse matter, he would be delayed for at least one day and would not be able to leave.
Should he help or not? Ma Long was hesitant.
At this moment, another person suddenly broke in from outside the crowd. After seeing Ma Long, he walked this way and shouted:
"Ma Long, this is terrible! It seems that one of the passengers who came with us on the same bus yesterday has disappeared, and now everyone is talking about going to search the mountain!"
The person running this way was Sun Fu, whom Ma Long met in the car.
As soon as Sun Fu said these words, the villagers in Dangdu were shocked again. They all stopped and said:
"But we can't go. No matter how much we go, it will be in vain! I'm afraid I won't be able to come back today if I go!"
"You foreigners, how come you don't know how powerful it is? Yesterday, that guy refused to listen and insisted on running to the back mountain. Now you still want to search the mountain. Isn't this seeking death?"
"That's the legendary blood corpse! No matter how many of you go there, you'll all die!"
Seeing that the villagers were speaking so seriously, Sun Fu walked up to Ma Long with doubts and asked in a low voice: "Is it true? Are there really bloody corpses here?"
Ma Long shrugged and said, "How did I know?"
"Isn't the blood corpse thing only in novels? Does it really exist in reality?" Sun Fu still couldn't believe it.
Ma Long reminded him: "Don't worry about it for now. You should stop the tourists first and tell them not to act rashly. Maybe the back mountain is really weird. Don't waste your life!"
"That's right!" Sun Fu clapped his hands and showed a surprised expression, "I have to stop them quickly. I can't let them go to the back mountain again!"
With that said, Sun Fu raised his feet and ran back again.
As soon as Sun Fu left, a villager said, "We have sent people to stand guard at the entrance of the back mountain. We will remind those tourists not to break in again, but if they force their way in, the people we sent will probably stop them."
Can’t live.”
Ma Long found that the situation seemed to be getting more and more serious. This was not just a matter of one person missing. It might involve a series of disappearances. It seemed that he really couldn't stay out of it.
Suddenly, Shen Bingbing on the side held Ma Long's hand and whispered: "Just help them. I know you want to leave in a hurry, but you can leave later, and you are not in a hurry for this day."
"Yes, Brother Xiao Ma." Fan Yong, who had been silent, also said, "The last time I came here, I also heard the rumors of blood corpses here. If it weren't for time constraints, I might have joined my comrades.
I went into the cave to take a look, and you happen to be here today, so why not help them and help them get rid of this harm!"
Seeing that no one was in a hurry to leave, Ma Long had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"Okay, then I'll go take a look."
After finally getting Ma Long's nod of approval, everyone was overjoyed and began to flatter him one after another.
"You are worthy of being a great god. Fortunately, great god, you came to our place. You helped us solve the drought yesterday, and today you are helping us deal with this bloody corpse. You are really our great benefactor!"
"After you leave, great god, we will also erect a statue for you to commemorate your great kindness to our village!"
Ma Long felt a little embarrassed after hearing these disgusting words. He quickly stopped everyone's flattery and said, "Okay, okay, take me to the accident site first. If a tourist breaks in by mistake, it will be troublesome!"
"The high priest said that if you, the great god, agree to help, when you pass by the temple, wait a moment, and we, the high priest, will personally guide you, the great god."
When Ma Long heard this, he felt a little helpless. With the high priest's unfavorable legs and feet, it would be a waste of time to lead him into the mountain.
"Can someone else lead the way?" Ma Long asked cautiously.
Of course the villagers understood what Ma Long meant. The high priest's poor legs and feet were one of the symptoms he suffered after entering the mountains last time. But——
"The only person who can come back alive after entering the mountain is the high priest. The great god." A villager said helplessly, "There is no choice at all. Not only us locals, no one dares to go in. Even if you are protected by the great god,
We went into the mountains together, and no one knew the way."
So that's it... Ma Long smiled bitterly. It seemed that the high priest would have to lead the way. But the only thing that made him feel relieved was that there was no high priest among these people, otherwise he would have wasted a lot of time on this trip.
.
In this way, Ma Long and the villagers first went to the temple, then met with the high priest, and then headed to the back mountain under the leadership of the high priest.
"Let's go." Ma Long originally wanted to let Shen Bingbing and the other girls stay, but he thought it would be safer to stay with him, "Let's go together and see the bloody corpse!"
