I didn't expect Luo Jian to ask me about this, and because I wasn't mentally prepared, I couldn't help but panic.
Wen Qingshan turned to look at me and said with some surprise: "How come you know the boss of Mo Yu Pavilion? I heard that he is indifferent and always keeps to himself. Except for doing business, he almost never interacts with others.
.”
I calmed down and said nonchalantly: "Actually...it's not really acquaintance. I just saw the compass in his shop and chatted with him a few words..."
Hearing what I said, Luo Jian had a look of disappointment on his face, but Wen Qingshan seemed thoughtful. He has always been good at observing words and expressions. I was a little stumbling when I spoke just now. I vaguely felt that he might have heard something from my words.
What, but in front of Luo Jian, he didn't say much.
On the way home after coming out of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, Wen Qingshan suddenly asked me: "Shi Yu, tell me the truth. Are you hiding something from me?"
I didn't expect him to ask such a direct question, so I was surprised, but I still pretended to be calm and asked: "Boss Wen, why did you say that?"
Wen Qingshan smiled slightly and said: "Haha, as far as I know, although Moyu Pavilion is located on the antique street, it does not actually sell antiques. That store mainly sells a kind of black jade that is specially used to ward off evil spirits, so it is called Moyu
Ge. But you said you saw a compass in his shop. You must have just said it casually on a whim."
Now that the matter has come to this point, I can no longer hide it from him, so I have no choice but to tell him the truth.
When he learned that Lin Guangyuan was still alive in this world, and that his current identity was that of the cult's holy envoy, he was so shocked that he could not speak for a long time. After a while, he slowly said: "If Lin Guangyuan is still alive in this world,
, shouldn’t he be one hundred, thirty or forty years old? This would be too exaggerated.”
I explained: "According to Lin Guangyuan, the reason why he is still alive in this world is because he practiced an evil skill.
Lin Guangyuan frowned and thought for a while, then said: "If Lin Guangyuan's identity is really exposed, I'm afraid it's more serious than the worst. Based on my understanding of the people in the cult, they will never leave anyone alive."
"So, Mr. Lin is dead?"
"I'm afraid that's the case!"
I couldn't help but sigh. Although Lin Guangyuan and I had known each other for a short time and had only met each other a few times, he had saved my life after all. Thinking that he might no longer be alive, I still felt a little sad.
Wen Qingshan also felt a little regretful. In his opinion, Lin Guangyuan was a member of a cult after all. If he was still alive, he might be able to get a lot of information about the cult from him.
However, he did not blame me for keeping this matter hidden from him. He just frowned, seeming to be thinking about something.
Suddenly, he braked suddenly, and I was unprepared. I leaned forward and my head almost hit the front windshield.
I steadied myself in shock, and just about to ask what was wrong, Wen Qingshan turned to me and asked: "Shi Yu, can you take me to the ancient tomb where you just mentioned that Lin Guangyuan is hiding?"
I couldn't help being slightly startled and asked, "What are you going to do there?"
Wen Qingshan said: "I don't think Lin Guangyuan left no clues at all. Since that ancient tomb is his hiding place, maybe something can be found in it."
After listening to what Wen Qingshan said, I thought about it carefully, and it was indeed reasonable. Unfortunately, when I went there that day, because I was thinking about Guiyan Chen's injury, I didn't go into the ancient tomb to take a closer look.
Now I can only go there again.
I told Wen Qingshan that the ancient tomb was located in a dense forest 70 kilometers south of Xiangsha City. Wen Qingshan said nothing and immediately drove to the southern suburbs of the city.
An hour later, Wen Qingshan and I drove to the lush woods. Wen Qingshan stopped the car by the side of the road. We got out of the car and walked along the narrow path deep into the forest.
Along the way, there was still silence, and I could barely hear the chirping of birds and insects. This made me feel a little puzzled. If it was because the man-wolf beast had passed by this road before, it affected the yin and yang of the surrounding aura.
Balance, but after all, two days have passed since the incident, so it would not have affected it for such a long time.
Wen Qingshan also felt that something was not right. He frowned and said, "Why is it so quiet in this woods?"
I said: "It must be that the aura in this area has been affected by some evil thing, which makes the birds afraid to stay here."
After Wen Qingshan heard this, he immediately took out a compass from his bag. When he took a look at the compass, his face suddenly changed slightly and he said in surprise: "Why is the Yin Qi in this area so heavy?"
Hearing what he said, I quickly put my head over to take a look, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised. From the compass point of view, the yin energy in this area is indeed heavy enough, but the problem is that the Feng Shui in this area doesn't look like it.
A place where yin energy gathers.
Just when I was feeling strange, a person walked towards me in front of me. I saw that the person was dressed in the clothes of an ordinary mountain man. He was walking in a hurry and looked a little panicked. He also turned his head and looked around from time to time, as if he was afraid that something was following behind.
Wen Qingshan immediately stepped forward to greet the man, raised his hands to the man, and asked: "Fellow, are you coming out of the mountains?"
The man looked up at us and quickly noticed the compass in Wen Qingshan's hand. He stared at the compass and seemed to understand something. He widened his eyes and said, "Are you two demon-catching Taoist priests invited by Leng Yaozi?"
Catching monsters? I was slightly stunned at first, but then I realized that this guy must have seen the compass in Wen Qingshan’s hand, and he was wearing a dark Tang suit today, so he mistakenly thought that we were Taoist priests catching monsters.
, I was about to answer him no, but Wen Qingshan asked first: "There are monsters in this mountain!?"
The man nodded immediately and said: "Yes! Yes! I just met him!"
When Wen Qingshan and I heard this, we looked at each other and were both surprised. I quickly asked, "Where did we meet you?"
The other party turned around, pointed deep into the forest, and said, "As you walked half a mile into the forest, there was an abandoned wooden house. Right next to that wooden house, I saw such a big snake!"
When he said this, he spread his hands and gestured to us, and then said: "That snake has a horn on its head. It must have become a sperm."
When he said this, I blurted out: "Could it be a one-horned earth dragon!?"
Wen Qingshan turned to look at me, a little surprised: "Do you know about the one-horned earth dragon?"
I nodded and said: "Not only do I know, but I have also seen it before. When Jianjian and I followed Guiyan Chen to collect thousand-year-old coffin mushrooms to drive away the zombie poison for you, we ran into one."
Wen Qingshan was even more surprised: "Is there such a thing? I heard..." In the middle of his words, perhaps he suddenly realized that the mountain man was still there, so he quickly stopped.
The mountain people listened to our conversation and said, "So you know what it is, that would be great. If you two can get rid of this monster in the black mountain forest, I will thank you on behalf of the whole village."
Speaking of this, he took a long sigh and said as if talking to himself: "Ever since that incident happened in that house a few years ago, evil things have never stopped in this forest, and now there is almost no one there.
Dare to come to the woods."
Three years ago? Something evil? I vaguely felt that there was something going on here, and it was probably related to Lin Guangyuan. Wen Qingshan asked: "Fellow, why don't you tell us about the evil thing going on in the woods?
?”
"Are... are you talking here...?" The mountain man turned around and looked again, as if he was worried that the one-horned earth dragon would catch up.
Wen Qingshan hurriedly said: "Folks, don't worry, as long as we are here, even if the monster does come, we can deal with it!" At this point, he took off his backpack and took out the Broken Dragon Slash from it.
He took out the Broken Dragon Sword from its scabbard, waved it twice in front of the man, and said: "This precious sword of mine is as sharp as clay. It is specially designed to kill monsters, not to mention snake spirits, even dragons."
It can kill it, so it is also called Dragon Cutting."
After listening to Wen Qingshan's deception, and seeing that the Broken Dragon Slash really didn't look like an ordinary weapon, the mountain man seemed to have confidence in us. He was not as afraid as before, and found a piece nearby that was a little cleaner.
The stone sat down and started telling the story to both of us.
It turns out that this forest is also called Black Mountain Forest, and this mountain man lives in a mountain village not far from this forest. In the past, the villagers often came to this forest to wander around, and in that abandoned cabin
There used to be a couple living there,
The man's name is Chen San, who is lame. The two of them planted several acres of thin fields in the woods, and raised livestock and poultry in front of and behind the house. They usually supplemented their income by picking fungus, mushrooms and other mountain products. Although they lived in poverty,
But I still had a good time.
However, about three or four years ago, an extremely terrifying and evil thing happened. That day, two villagers in the village went to find Chen San to collect fungus. Unexpectedly, they saw a shocking scene as soon as they walked to the door of his house.
I saw Chen San's wife lying on her back on the floor
, the body was covered with bruises and bloodstains, and there was blood all around the body, while Chen San was lying in front of her wife with her head buried, her body was twitching slightly, and she made a strange sound.
Next to him, there was a bloody axe.
At first, the two villagers thought that Chen San's wife had been attacked by wild animals, because this forest was connected to the mountains, and wild boars had been seen in the past. The two were about to go up to see what was going on, but Chen San, who had been burying his head, suddenly
raise your head
, when the two of them saw Chen San's appearance, they were immediately frightened to death. They saw Chen San's eyes were blood red, his face was ferocious, his mouth was full of blood, and he seemed to be chewing something in his mouth. Then when they looked at his
My wife’s neck was bloody and bloody.
Only then did the two realize that it was Chen San who had killed his wife with an axe, and was now eating his wife's body!
