Nightcrawler: 20 Years of Peaceful Demons

Chapter 349 Land Lord
The people who entered the mountain this time, besides Ma Yi'ao and me, were Li An'an, Ma Sifan, Ma Xiaolong, Miao girl Anli, and her entourage, Amu.

As for Ma Xiaofeng, she stayed on the Yashan side, first to take care of the family business, and second, to help me keep an eye on Suzaku's news.

Once Suzaku comes back, immediately keep her there.

Before setting off, Ma Xiaolong chatted with the buddy from the criminal police team and talked about it. Since it was not a jurisdiction, he had no choice but to give Ma Xiaolong a call and said that if he arrived at Wuzhishan, he could call Call one of his classmates, he should be able to help if necessary.

He drove to Wuzhishan City. In the urban area, Ma Xiaolong contacted a business partner who was also from the Northeast and asked him to help find a guide to the north of Wuzhishan.

That buddy has been in Hainan for some time. In this place where ethnic minorities live together, people are familiar with each other. After hearing Ma Xiaolong's request, he took a meal stall and called to shake people. After a while, he called The three local people who are very familiar with the area around Wuzhi Mountain are all great people who go up the mountain to hunt and go down to swim. They must have said that we were going to compete in the leprosy village, so they all backed down.

Two of these three people have been there recently and told us that the group of "leprosy" has made traps everywhere on the mountain road for more than a year. In the pit, he either died on the spot, or if he didn't die, he was boiled to death by the bugs.

They didn't deal with it, causing stench everywhere, and inexplicably more insects and snakes, turning the entire mountainous area into a restricted area.

There is also a legend that there is an expert there who arranged a formation and turned the surroundings into a maze. When ordinary people pass by, ghosts hit the wall.

In short very evil.

It has been more than a year, except for the last time when people from the Civil Affairs Bureau took the police there, no one has been there, and people from the leprosy village have not come out, which is equivalent to being isolated from the world.

But not coming out, but still active in that area. Some people have seen several lepers who look like evil spirits hunting in the mountains. One of them still knows him. He has drank alcohol before, but that meeting made him completely changed. Now, not only does he look like a ghost, but he also has a cold personality, completely unlike his previous appearance.

Now that area is like a forbidden area, most people dare not go there.

This is because they are afraid of being infected with leprosy germs, and also contracted the disease, and secondly, it is also because the people there are really cold, looking at you coldly, and can't sleep all night.

When I close my eyes, I can't help having nightmares.

We asked the locals, did they say that the cage village was like this before?
One of them replied, how could it be?It wasn't like this before, the place was remote, it was located on a ridge, and the transportation was inconvenient, so it was very poor, but they were all kind-hearted.

He also knew a hunter who usually hunted rabbits, mountain goods, etc., and went down the mountain to go to the market. Because they were both colleagues, the two of them had a common language, and later became friends. Very simple, God knows what happened to them, suddenly they became like this.

And that place is poor, but leprosy has never been heard of.

I don't know how it got infected.

Another person suddenly interrupted and said, "If you want to go to that ghostly place, we definitely can't follow you, but I can recommend someone..."

Ma Xiaolong is interested, who are you talking about?
The man said: "When Jinglong Village was not a leprosy village, there were exchanges with the outside world, and some people came out to work to earn money; there was a tea house in the east of the city, and there was a guy in it called Xiaolou. His family was Jinglong Village. Villagers, if you want to know about it, you can ask him."

Ma Xiaolong hurriedly said: "Then you go and call, and we will ask."

Ma Xiaolong's buddies also urged, saying you go and call him.

He gave the money, but the other party didn't delay, and went to call for someone on a motorcycle. After a while, someone brought him over. A thin and dark young man, he didn't even look 20 years old. A box full of people, a little stage fright, did not dare to look up at everyone.

When Ma Xiaolong saw the other party, he asked kindly, "I heard you are from Jinglong Village?"
The man nodded and said yes, but we are not considered a big village, but a brigade, a natural village.

Ma Xiaolong asked: "How long have you been out?"

Xiaolou said, "Three years."

Ma Xiaolong asked: "How long has it been since you went home?"

Xiaolou said, "A year and a half... ah, a year..."

Seeing that he was speaking vaguely, Ma Xiaolong asked, "How long has it been?"

The young man finally came to his senses at this moment. He took courage and said, "Who are you guys? Why should I tell you?"

He looked at the guide who brought him here, and wanted to leave a little bit, but the guide said, "Xiaolou, didn't I tell you on the way, the people here are all big bosses, and they ask you for questions." , I won't treat you badly..."

Ma Xiaolong nodded and said yes, we want to go to Jinglong Village, but we don’t know the situation very well, if you can talk to us about the current situation inside, or take us in, I will pay you.

The young man's breath became short of breath, he looked at Ma Xiaolong eagerly, and asked how much?
Ma Xiaolong looked at him and said how much do you want?

The young man thought for a while, then stretched out two fingers, saying that many people are afraid to go to that place, and they don't know what's going on. If you want to know, what's the matter, it will cost... two thousand, right?

When he said the final price, he hesitated for a moment. After he finished speaking, he looked at Ma Xiaolong with some guilt.

Ma Xiaolong narrowed his eyes and looked at the tea shop guy for a while, and then said: "Yes, no problem, and if you are willing to take us there, I will give you a little extra, 1 yuan, how about it?"

1 yuan?

This price was like a heavy hammer, hitting the young man's heart hard. As the saying goes, "money can make ghosts grind." He gritted his teeth and said yes, I will ask our boss for leave now.

Ma Xiaolong glanced at the guide, and the guide said, "I'll just call your boss and say that Brother Bin is looking for your help."

Brother Bin is Ma Xiaolong's buddy. He has a big name in this area. He is a big brother in society. Many people in business know it. When Xiaolou heard it, he nodded and said it.

After getting the wizard thing done, the next step is to understand.

After Xiaolou received a deposit of 2000 yuan, he gave us an explanation.

He said that the reason why Jinglong Village became what it is now is because a land master was attracted.

Yes, we heard that right, the land lord.

No one knows what that man's name is. He claimed to be the "Lord of the Land", and he cured several old patients with old diseases with the help of burning talisman water, and he also helped with farm work. , but I still like this man.

Unexpectedly, after a while, everyone became ill one after another and developed leprosy. Only then did they realize that what this land lord brought was not the hope of life, but destruction.

However, the land master, who looks like a normal person, told everyone that it was God who punished them and they were disobedient.

As long as you listen to the land master, this disease can be cured.

Then the people in the village began to follow the land master to do things, and they had to do what he told them to do, but those who followed the top cows would be punished, either by doing farm work non-stop, or by corporal punishment, and some people were even punished. kill.

Under the control of violence, everyone dared not speak out, but at this time, the land master began to show kindness again, and taught some followers how to fight.

Those people became more and more powerful, just like the legendary heroes who come and go.

People in the village were already superstitious, so they began to believe him.

Xiaolou returned home two months after the man came. His parents took advantage of the land master and brought the young people from the village up the mountain. After explaining the reason, they drove him down the mountain and told him not to go home for the rest of his life. .

The place where their ancestors lived for generations has been destroyed, and they can never go back...

After listening to Xiaolou's narration, we were all stunned.

If I hadn't seen Yue Zhuangshi at the Hengtang Old Demon's Martial Arts Tournament and the Hainan Guanyin Ceremony, I would have thought that the guy who called himself "Land Master" was exactly this person.

In fact, whether it is the "Master of the Mountain God" or the "Master of the Land", the methods used by these people to fool the people are exactly the same.

From this point of view, the guy who did evil in the leprosy village must also be a practitioner.

Even Nightcrawler.

This guy is really not a fun thing.

Someone asked, saying that the guy is doing such evil, is it true that the local government does not take care of it?
People who say this probably don't know much about the mountainous terrain in the south-central part of Hainan Island, and they don't know what it was like in that remote and dilapidated place around 2000.

In fact, more than ten years later, women were trafficked in many mountainous areas. The local government knew about it, and probably had no intention of taking care of it.

The rule of law requires a process, not overnight, but step by step.

After we understood it, we decided not to take a rest and rushed into the mountain directly.

We drove to the nearest village to the foot of the mountain, then stepped into the tropical jungle and started to climb over the mountains.

The mountain road was difficult, and after a while, night fell.

We drove in the dark and walked for another two hours, looking for a place to rest. After all, someone said earlier that there were animal traps everywhere on the road to the leprosy village. In the middle of the night, we walked in the dark and fell into the traps. That's called "every day should not be done", and the earth is not working.

We found a place to set up camp, lit a bonfire, and then began to watch the night. Needless to say, in the middle of the night, I suddenly woke up and heard a scream not far away.

After I woke up, I felt that the cry was very familiar. After trying to recall it for a while, I finally remembered it.

That voice is very similar to Ma Qi.

Ma Qi who left with Tang Dao.
