The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 450

We turned on the light along the position of the cat's head, and saw some small shrubs hidden there.Now it is the lush vegetation in summer, those shrubs grow lush and green, but when the light is turned on, some blood can be seen on the leaves of the shrubs, and in some places, the branches are broken, obviously Someone walks by.

That person either had a lot of blood on his body, or he was injured himself.

The three of us looked at each other, and finally I said to the civet cat: "You rest here, let's chase after it and have a look." Unexpectedly, the fat civet cat hooked my trouser legs with its claws, meowed, and wobbled He walked two steps forward, showing a look that he wanted to go with us.

I hurriedly stabilized it, thinking that your belly is broken, don't lie down properly, and run around.

Tianran stayed by the side and said, "It also wants to find that person."

Could it be that the fat civet cat still wants to seek revenge from that person?

Although we have always suspected that Shui Yushuang did it before, but now that even civet cats have become like this, I think Shui Yushuang may not have the strength, and there should be someone else who did this.

Reluctantly, he vacated the outer bag of the equipment bag and put the civet cat in. It lay inside, with only a cat's head exposed.

Immediately, the three of us followed the traces of the destruction of the bushes and traced forward. As we walked, I found that, after making a circle, we turned around to go out of the mountain again.Obviously, the other party also wanted to leave the mountain overnight.

Who is that person?

Is it really rain and frost?
If she has this ability, even the mountain spirit can easily deal with it, then we really underestimated her in the past.

During the pursuit, the other party seemed to be trying to cover up his whereabouts. The further we walked, the harder it was for us to find any clues. Finally, a small stream appeared in front of us.The creek is not wide and the water is not very deep. The bluestone on the west side is covered with moss, and the surrounding soil is soft, leaving many animal tracks.

If that person was going out of the mountain, he would definitely pass by here.

We immediately looked around with flashlights, and it didn't take long before I found it.It turned out that the downstream less than a hundred meters away from us was covered with dense footprints. The number of people represented by these footprints was completely beyond our expectations.

Could it be that it was not one person who killed those five people and the civet cat, but a group of people?

"No." Feng Guishou squatted down to check the footprints, and said: "The distance between these footprints is too regular, and ordinary people don't walk like this. Could it be that there are people marching in this mountain?"

Indeed, the series of footprints are almost not skewed. Apart from stepping forward, few normal people can walk like this.

and many more!

A flash of light flashed in my mind, and I suddenly remembered one thing. When Zhou Xuanye walked away before, didn't those corpses walk like that?Could this string of footprints be left by Zhou Xuanye and the others?
The more I thought about it, the more I was right. Besides Zhou Xuanye and the others, who else would there be in this place?
As soon as I said my thoughts, Feng Guishou immediately agreed, and the three of us immediately followed these footprints. Since the process of walking a corpse would be relatively slow, we quickly caught up with Zhou Xuanye.

I saw him alone in front, followed by five old corpses walking stiffly. In the middle of the night, there was only a dim flashlight for illumination. It looked like a horror movie.As soon as we approached, Zhou Xuanye sensed it and turned around abruptly. At the same time, the five corpses also turned around, with their dead faces facing us, strangely.

"Tian Gu?" Zhou Xuanye raised his voice in surprise, and said, "It's you?" Then he asked again: "Why are there only three of you, senior brother?"

"It's hard to say." I touched my nose and asked, "Brother Zhou, have you met anyone else?"

Zhou Xuanye shook his head and said: "No, I have been taking a relatively remote road to avoid the people in the capital. What's the matter with you?" When he asked, I roughly explained the matter, and Zhou Xuanye frowned slightly when he heard the words , said: "I came here along the way, and I didn't meet anyone, did the other party wade?"

Feng Guishou said: "But there are no clues left by the water. We searched around and found your footprints."

Zhou Xuanye smiled when he heard the words, and suddenly gave Feng Guishou a meaningful look, and said, "If the other party is Shui Yushuang, I remember, she has a shuttle in her hand, right?"

At the mention of the flying shuttle, Feng Guishou's face changed, and he slapped himself on the back of the head suddenly, showing a look of sudden realization, and then he said: "Wait, I'll go and have a look." He didn't take off his shoes and socks after speaking, Directly wading through the water, he ran to the other side of the stream.

The stream was high and low, about seven or eight meters away, and the water was very shallow. Feng Gui waded to the opposite side, climbed two big rocks, and the terrain became higher.Immediately afterwards, he searched in the depths. Due to the angle of view, we could only see the movement of the halo, but not the figure.

However, it didn't take long before he heard the person on the opposite side shout loudly: "I found it! Come quickly!" Zhou Xuanye rang the corpse bell, walked the five old corpses to stand under a big tree, and then waded with us to the other side.

After climbing to a high place, I saw Feng Gui standing with his back to us, and the flashlight in his hand was not turned on, which seemed a little strange.

At this time, the tanuki, which had been lying peacefully in my backpack, suddenly meowed.

At the same time, Feng Guishou turned his face away.

His expression was very strange, the muscles on his face seemed a little tense, and he only said one sentence to us: "Disappeared."

What's gone?

While comforting the raccoon cat, I trot towards him. There was no way, the wound on the raccoon cat's stomach was too severe, and it couldn't withstand too much jolt for the time being. Therefore, Zhou Xuanye and Tianran stayed at Feng Guishou's side before me. Immediately afterwards, I Finding that the two of them were also standing still, Zhou Xuanye let out a gasp.

My heart skipped a beat, and I thought: What happened?
I don't need them to answer this question, because the next moment, I also walked to that position. At this moment, I thought I was dreaming.

The terrain ahead showed a downward trend and was shrouded in darkness. It should have been very dark.

But right now, it's getting brighter.

In the darkness, sporadic stars lit up one after another, dimly, as if someone had hung up a lantern in the darkness.Moreover, the number of these lanterns is increasing, they are hung from all directions, and the scattered halos are gradually connected together, and the things hidden in the darkness are also revealed in its entirety.

This is an ancient city, or an ancient village, with hanging lanterns, ancient buildings, ancient roads, and lanterns swaying slightly in the night wind, all of which make people feel as if they have traveled to a prosperous place in ancient times Village scene.

Feng Guishou murmured: "I saw Shui Yushuang there just now, but in a blink of an eye, she disappeared, and then this village appeared.

The number of lanterns is still increasing. At first, only one was hung, and then one after another, becoming a string of hanging lanterns. With the lighting of these lanterns, the light became stronger and stronger, and the appearance of the ancient village changed. It became clearer, and even the lights in those houses were lit up, as if someone had lit a lamp in the room.

At this moment, I thought of the ghost market I encountered in the desert before. Could it be that this is also a ghost market?
The places where ghost markets appear often really existed before, that is to say, thousands of years ago, there was indeed such a village in this place.

As the whole village lit up, some people gradually began to appear on the road. These people were all wearing ancient Hanfu. Judging from the standard, they should be dressed in the Ming Dynasty. At this moment, the village is just below, too far away. It's not clear what it looks like, but if it's a ghost market, we can't get close to it.

Feng Guishou said that he saw Shui Yushuang just now. In this way, it should be Shui Yushuang who killed and injured the raccoon cat. It's just that she is trapped in the ghost city now, and it may be difficult to get out.

The four of us stood on the high ground, all turned off the flashlights, and stared quietly at the ancient village thousands of years ago.I have fairly good eyesight, so I can see many things clearly.On the roads of the village, there were people pushing small carts selling night food, some walking with their heads bowed, some facing each other, seeming to be chatting, and there were many stalls on the side of the road, which seemed extremely prosperous.

Unexpectedly, thousands of years ago, there was such a prosperous village in this place?

The first one to come to his senses was Feng Guishou. He obviously knew what the ghost market said, and rubbed his hands excitedly: "Great, that woman has fallen into the ghost market."

Tianrandai frowned and said, "My knife."

I said: "When the ghost market disappears by itself, the knife will naturally be found." While speaking, I looked at the watch on my wrist. It was already past four o'clock, and there was still more than an hour before dawn.

And at this time, the fat civet cat who had just calmed down just now, meowed again, and at the same time, turned around and ran back, where could I see any signs of injury? It is quite useful, and the injury on the stomach is probably healed, but for some reason, it still can't speak.

Seeing that it was fine, I naturally didn't care about it anymore. Seeing that it ran away without a trace, I turned my head and planned to continue to observe the village.Unexpectedly, as soon as I turned my head, I saw a person walking out of the village and walking towards where we were.

I rubbed my eyes vigorously, and said to myself, no way, why did someone come over?We didn't enter the ghost market, those 'people' couldn't find us.
