The Mysterious Recovery of the Forgotten World

Chapter 258
After a short meeting.

Li Leping, Liu San, the people in charge of Dachuan City and DQ City decided to jointly investigate the situation under the river in front of them.

"You can't see people alive, can't you see dead bodies..."

After listening to Chen Zhong's introduction, Li Leping probably understood the cause of the incident.

Right now, Li Leping looked at Liu San: "Do you think they were attacked by the ghosts under the water?"

"I'm only saying it's possible. You'll have to go down there to find out what's going on under the water," Liu San said.

"Detective Li, do I need to prepare diving equipment for you?" At this moment, Chen Zhong who was on the side asked.

If you plan to go into the water, you will definitely need to be fully dressed.

Besides, it's winter, if you go into the water carelessly, your body is prone to problems.

"I don't need it for the time being. It's just an investigation stage. I won't go too deep." Li Leping said.

Although he is not very good at swimming, he can still float after diving.

Afterwards, he looked at Liu San and the paper figurines surrounding them: "You paper figurines should be waterproof."

"Don't worry, it won't sink." Liu San seemed confident.

now.

The two stood on the bank, Li Leping looked at the calm river, but they both knew that the water was extremely dangerous.

Even in the daytime, the surface of the river looks clear, but the bottom of the river is dark, and no one knows what is in the depths.

The only way is to go down and investigate by yourself.

"You first please." Li Leping looked at Liu San and said humbly.

Liu San didn't refuse either.

But before going into the water, all his paper figurines came over and surrounded him, as if to protect his central bone.

Immediately afterwards, all the paper figurines moved at the same time and walked towards the river.

Soon, the paper figurine at the front walked into the water as if walking on the road.

The water flow quickly submerged the existence of this paper figurine.

Without stopping, at this moment, Liu San who was in the center also walked in, and the paper figurine behind him showed no sign of flinching, just followed him all the way to the end.

Li Leping didn't rush to leave, but planned to wait for more than ten seconds to see if Liu San would send back any news.

"Ok?"

However, after Liu San entered the water, there was no more movement.

Even the paper figurines under his hands disappeared completely, as if they were submerged in water, and no news came out.

"Detective Li, this..."

Looking at Liu San who seemed to be swallowed by the river, Chen Zhong said in amazement.

Liu San and his dozens of paper figurines just disappeared into the water.

No sound.

"This river surface, I'm afraid it's not real." Li Leping frowned.

"Not really?" Chen Zhong asked in confusion.

"I'm going down now. Stay away from this area. I'm afraid it's not about one or two ghosts."

Li Leping did not explain anything, but issued a series of orders: "Expand the blockade area, along this river, at least within ten miles, I will clear it, no ships will be allowed to approach, and no one will be allowed to enter the water. "

"Yes." Chen Zhong said.

Li Leping didn't say anything, but walked towards the cold river.

Liu San must not be so easy to plant, the dozens of paper figurines, together with his real body, will not be submerged by the river, and there will be no news from them.

"There is a problem with the surface of the river."

"A dozen or twenty paper figurines went in together, probably Liu San also noticed it."

While thinking, Li Leping walked over.

Soon, the river covered his feet, followed by his knees, and then his stomach.

The river flow is calm, but the water temperature in winter is extremely cold.

Fortunately, Li Leping's body temperature is also very cold, and the ghost master's body will not be affected by such an ambient temperature.

At this moment, he is like a person who can't think about it, silently walking into the calm river...

And after the river completely submerged his head.

Suddenly.

Li Leping also disappeared in this section of the river.

The surrounding environment is changing.

The water flow seemed to be stimulated by some kind of stimulation, and began to rush up.

But this is impossible, because Li Leping is standing not far from the shore now, even if the sea is high tide, it doesn't rise like this.

now.

"Gollum, Gollum."

Li Leping was in the water and let out a little breath.

The water calmed down, but his position changed.

It was dark all around, but there was a little light overhead.

After a little observation, I can find that the position I am in now is no longer the position when I just entered the water.

The moment he entered the water, his position changed suddenly.

Now he is actually standing at the bottom of the water.

The mud under his feet seemed to have been softened by water, and it was easy to sink into it if he stepped on it a little.

Try using Ghostland to leave.

However, this weird water flow seemed to carry a terrible spirit. The ghost smoke just appeared in the water flow, as if it was washed away by the water flow.

"Huh?" Li Leping couldn't help narrowing his eyes.

The expansion of the ghost domain is restricted.

"There is indeed a problem with this water."

When I looked up, I could still see some light. It seemed that it was still daytime outside, but there was not much sunlight.

suddenly.

He saw some dark shadows on the water.

The few dark shadows covered the sunlight, like a small black spot on the water surface, occupying a small place, but it was particularly attractive.

As Li Leping moved upstream slowly, he also saw clearly what those black shadows were.

Those were several dead people whose bodies had ossified.

Those people were wearing ordinary long-sleeved swimsuits, and their bodies had already been soaked white, but they were not swollen yet.

Looking at the expressions on their faces, they were full of horror, as if they died suddenly.

But this is actually not surprising, it is impossible for a living person to stay under such water temperature for a long time.

In winter, if you want to swim up from the bottom of the water, the low temperature of the water and the suddenness of the incident make it too late to take a deep breath in advance.

Various disadvantages led to such a tragedy.

"Are those ordinary people swimming in winter?"

Li Leping tried to go upstream and found that it could be done.

Floating while thinking.

He remembered very clearly that the reason why this incident was discovered was because the first few winter swimmers never came up after diving into the water.

Now, looking at the corpses floating on the water in front of him, Li Leping knew that they had already floated up, but whether they could reach the shore or not was left to fate.

Ignoring these dead men, he soon surfaced.

"Yo, it's finally floating up."

As soon as he poked his head out, he could see paper figurines in the shape of Liu San standing on the bank.

They gathered together, some turned their backs to Li Leping, and some faced Li Leping.

One of the paper figurines facing the water saw Li Leping, although this paper figurine could no longer remember what Li Leping looked like, but in this place, besides Li Leping, there will be a third person coming so?
He waved his hand towards Li Leping, his paper arm swayed in an indescribably strange way.

Li Leping also moved quickly and swam to the shore.

At this time, a paper figurine with its back to Li Leping turned around. This paper figurine was also the only paper figurine with a back among all the paper figurines present.

Other paper figurines are not as sophisticated in craftsmanship as this paper figurine. The backs of other paper figurines are empty, and a few wooden blocks can be seen as the skeleton, just like human joints.

Liu San looked at Li Leping, who was covered in water stains and his hair was loose, and asked in confusion, "Don't you have a ghost domain? Why don't you use it?"

Li Leping simply explained: "There is a problem with this water, which will limit my ghost domain."

After speaking, he looked around the situation around him.

At some point, the location of the two was changed.

The modern buildings disappeared, and even the water surface in front of me was not as wide as the river surface before. It seemed to have shrunk a lot, as if it had changed from the surface of the river to the surface of the river.

However, everyone knew that the river that brought them here suddenly must have supernatural powers.

"Is it another place that connects reality and supernatural?"

Li Leping, who has experienced the ghost photo studio, is no stranger to this situation.

He looked back at the calm water and the floating corpse floating on the water.

The end of the water surface is still the water surface, as if the endless water surface is like the sea, trapping the two of them on this "isolated island".

Afterwards, he looked at Liu San and the lush vegetation behind Liu San.

This place is no longer the modern area where the two entered the water. At this moment, the two seem to have been brought to a certain mountain area by force, surrounded by shrubs and weeds, and even the trees are lush and tall.

Looking up, although it looks like daytime now, there is a thick layer of dark clouds accumulated on the sky, as if this is a cloudy sky, full of gloom and dead silence, where the sun is covered, or there is no sun at all , there is only a cold breath around him.

But fortunately, although it looks like a cloudy sky now, the surrounding environment is not too dark, it just feels like it is going to rain.

The surroundings are silent, there is no bird singing in the mountains, as if everything is still at this moment, the trees will not sway with the wind, and the water will not be turbulent.

"I thought I was just catching a ghost, but I didn't expect to be brought to this ghost place." Liu San did not panic, but calmly analyzed, "In reality, the section of the Lingjiang River is the entrance, and this is the destination."

"Entrance is not important anymore, now we have to consider the issue of exit." Li Leping said.

"It's not just about exports."

As he said that, Liu San directed the paper figurines behind him to disperse, and said vigilantly: "There are ghosts here."

Follow the paper people gathered on the shore to disperse.

A dead man in a diving suit with his eyes wide open, as if he had seen some horrible scene, was lying on the ground like this.

"This should be the diver responsible for launching the rescue, but..."

Liu San spread his hands and did not continue talking.

Li Leping didn't have any scruples, he was used to seeing dead people.

Go over now and observe the dead diver a little bit.

The diving suit on this person's body has been cut open by Liu San, and on the exposed body, there is an obvious ring-shaped bruise on the outside of the chest cavity. Judging by the strength, the bones of the chest cavity were even sunk in.

"Strangled."

Half squatting down and taking a quick look, Li Leping knew how this person was killed.

He was strangled to death, and strangled to death by hugging.

"It's very strong. It's impossible for a normal person to hug and strangle someone like this." Liu San added.

Normal people don't have such strength, but ghosts do.

Li Leping didn't speak, but silently looked not far away.

The situation here has not exceeded their expectations. After all, supernatural events can happen at any time.

The unknown is often the scariest thing.

And in sight.

It was a path that appeared between bushes and trees.

A winding dirt road, without any careful paving, is like a road that didn't exist in the first place, but it just appeared after walking more times.

The trees on both sides of the road are dense, like a row of airtight walls, extending straight all the way, so Li Leping and Liu San don't know where the end of this road leads.

"Go?" Liu San asked at this moment.

He would never be a hero at such a time.

His teammate is Li Leping who solved the S-level incident, so he naturally doesn't need to make any decisions.

As long as your opinion is not completely contrary to your own, you can go any way you want.

Li Leping didn't answer in a hurry, but glanced at the road between the trees, and then at the shore.

"The shore may also be a road. After all, if you go around the shore in circles, who knows what you will encounter."

After Li Leping finished speaking, he looked at the dirt road again: "But look, there are shoe prints on this road, and they are very obvious fin prints."

"Those divers who survived took this path." Liu San has rich experience and knows everything.

Looking at the messy shoe prints, it is obvious that those well-equipped divers who were able to swim ashore alive seemed to have encountered something here, so that they fled in such a haste.

"But this doesn't mean that this road is open, after all, we don't know the current situation of those divers." Li Leping said.

"It's simple." Liu San didn't care.

He looked at the many paper figurines behind him, and those paper figurines also looked at him, as if they were waiting for an order.

"You decide a direction, and then we will take that road. As for the remaining road, I will send two paper figurines to explore the road." Liu San said.

"Then why don't you send paper figurines to scout the way first?" Li Leping said.

"That's fine, but I don't want to stay where I am. After all, I've been in this ghostly place for a long time, and no one knows if there will be any changes."

Liu San's proposal is very reasonable, and only he, the ghost master who has controlled the paper figurine, can use such a magical method to explore the way.

Investigate the two roads together, even if one of them is a dead end, then the other road can be explored to some extent.

"Then what about the paper figurines you sent to explore the way?" Li Leping asked.

"I don't know." Liu San shook his head.

"But I guess, it should be destroyed, otherwise I can't sense them."

"Okay, you send..."

Just when Li Leping made a decision.

suddenly.

The eyes of the two suddenly focused, and they looked at one place.

That's where the shore is.

"Woo, woo woo."

In the silent surroundings, there was a sudden cry.

The crying sound became clearer from far to near.

"ghost?"

For a moment, the eyes of the two became dignified.
