After Sun Youle came back from Yangcheng, he began to actively recuperate his body, after all, for people who are in good health, this feeling of weakness at this time is really uncomfortable.

And even some of his colleagues have been looking at him with strange eyes, who made him vain, pale and weak, and looked overindulgent, this is simply a matter of bad character, Sun Youle naturally didn't dare to wait any longer.

Sun Youle found someone to read the list given by Liu Laodao, confirmed that the list was fine, and then began to buy medicinal decoctions, many medicinal materials are expensive, but Sun Youle is single, and he has accumulated a lot of savings over the years, and he doesn't care about this money.

Coupled with sufficient sleep and moderate exercise, Sun Youle felt that he was recovering quickly, and while conditioning his body, Sun Youle was also quickly promoting the investigation of the "Liaozhai Plan"

Yes, Sun Youle called the investigation of this matter the Liaozhai plan, because he felt that his experience was similar to the plot in Liaozhai, there was Nie Xiaoqian, and there was also the old demon of Montenegro, of course, he didn't want to be a powerless scholar Ning Caichen, so he had to investigate this matter clearly.

Sun Youle made a report to the academy and added a social practice activity to the students who were about to graduate, that is, to investigate the supernatural events in several places, and then single out a few of them as typical examples for scientific disclosure, so as to popularize science and prevent the people from being used by some lawbreakers.

This kind of thing is not the first time, plus Sun Youle is working hard behind the scenes to open up personal relationships, so he quickly got the consent and support of the college, mobilized hundreds of senior students, plus some experienced propaganda backbones and the cooperation of the local government and government, it is enough to sit back and relax, but Sun Youle is not at ease, and he still participates in it himself.

With the desolate grave found before as the center, the radius of 100 kilometers is really too large, including an urban area and three county seats, including hundreds of towns and villages, even if hundreds of them are scattered, it is not enough.

So it is impossible to pull the net to investigate, but this is not difficult for Sun Youle, he has learned before that whether it is a person or a ghost behind this matter, the place is definitely in the deep mountains and old forests, and it cannot be in the middle of the city, because only a deserted place can hide people's eyes and ears, if it is in the city, the ghost knows whether it will be seen through.

Therefore, Sun Youle set the matter of this investigation near some mountainous areas, and his reason is also very simple, the people in the city are well-informed, and some routines may not be able to deceive them, but those remote areas are the hardest hit areas of feudal superstition.

This is very reasonable, naturally no one will refute it, Sun Youle himself took a vote of people to go deep into a remote village and town.

It is a very remote village and town, deep in the mountains, more than 70 kilometers away from the nearest county seat, and the population of the vast area is less than 5,000.

That night, they stayed in a guest house in a small town, and they were warmly entertained, not counting eating and drinking, the key was that after knowing the purpose of their trip, the people in the guest house looked at each other and didn't understand what it meant.

Fortunately, Sun Youle's fellow travelers are experienced, and they have repeatedly said that these investigations will not have a bad impact on the local area, and that after the typical cases are publicized, they can also help the villagers avoid being deceived, and those people can put their hearts back in their stomachs, and then, Sun Youle led the topic to strange stories.

How can the people in the mountains have less of this kind of story, there are a lot of them, bizarre, eerie and terrifying, plus the people who say it are good, and they are good at mobilizing the atmosphere, which scares those students into turning pale, and even some girls would have been scared away if they didn't care about the teacher's presence.

The reception ended, but then, Sun Youle went to buy two bottles of good wine and a few packets of peanuts, and then went to the person at the guest house, saying that he hadn't heard enough of tonight's story, but as soon as he turned his head, Sun Youle coaxed and said that it was boring, this is all heard, and if you want to listen, you have to listen to the truth.

The person in the guest house was poured wine, and he didn't know the southeast and northwest for a long time, so he came when he opened his mouth, how could this kind of thing be lacking in the mountain village.

"Liu Laohan from Xiaodong Village, his daughter-in-law, do you know·····"

"And the East Bridge, there's a dead man buried over there..."

"And..."

Sun Youle listened and memorized silently, and waited until the people in the guest house were too drunk to tell the story before he went back, and then he listed the things he had written down one by one.

"Five villages, almost every village has no less than three strange incidents in ten years, and the largest one village has less than one every year, which is really unimaginable."

After the analysis, Sun Youle sighed, the situation in this town is too unoptimistic, such as the most serious town, a lot of things have happened in the past four or five years, such as villagers lost for no reason, ecstasy, livestock died for no reason, and so on.

But after so many things happened, they were still indifferent, and just invited some monks and Taoists to come and see, but those monks and Taoists still didn't use themselves after charging high fees.

"Dongqiao Village, I'll go here tomorrow, I hope to gain something"

Sun Youle pressed his hand on a place on the map called Dongqiao Village, which was the village where the most incidents occurred, and he wanted to make a breakthrough here.

······

The next day, Sun Youle divided the team into several teams, and took a few boys to Dongqiao Village, led by the staff of the town, after a long journey of half a day, they finally arrived at Dongqiao Village, at the entrance of the village, they saw a very huge banyan tree, which was covered with red cloth, and cigarette smoke curled, it is estimated that the villagers regarded this big tree as a sacred tree.

But they are not surprised, this kind of thing is too common, it is not an uncommon thing, and then the people in the town found the village chief and told him about the matter, and the village chief didn't understand what it meant, anyway, he cooperated.

Sun Youle asked those students to visit, but he directly found the village chief to chat, because he knew that in this kind of small village, the village chief was the most informed, and basically there would be no situation where the village chief did not understand.

But today, the village chief disappointed Sun Youle, he looked very honest, but he basically didn't know anything about Sun Youle's questions.

Time passed in the blink of an eye, and after dark, they stayed in the village, the mountain roads were rugged, and it was very unwise to travel at night.

"Teacher, I think this village is very abnormal"

"Oh, what an abnormal law"

"I can't say it, I feel very depressed anyway, and the villagers are very resistant to us, and the key point is, I feel that I am being watched"

"What, surveillance, don't scare me"

As soon as the boy said this, the other two were so shocked that their faces turned white.

"Really, don't lie to you, you know, my reconnaissance class is the first in the whole department, my sense is very keen, but I turned around several times and didn't find anyone watching, and there is another point, teacher, you don't know if you have found it, the people in the village seem to pay too much attention to the tree at the entrance of the village"

"How to pay attention to the law, you can talk about it"

"Burning incense, burning incense all day and night, we arrived at one o'clock at noon, but until now, the incense there has not been extinguished, such a poor village, don't you think there is a problem?"

"It's not necessarily, the poorer the place, the more superstitious it is, isn't it normal?"

"No, teacher, it's different, I don't know if you found out, strange things often happened in this Dongqiao Village in the past few years, so that they suffered heavy losses, and even casualties, but since they regarded the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village as a sacred tree, it hasn't happened again, isn't it strange?"

"Oh, and such a thing?"

"It's true"

"I see, okay, you sleep, remember, don't sleep so dead, you know"

Sun Youle instructed, the news he got at the scene was very interesting, he decided to explore the big banyan tree at night to see if there were any ghosts at the bottom.

In the middle of the night, Sun Youle secretly walked out of the room and walked to the entrance of the village, the village was not far from the entrance of the village, and soon, he saw the flickering firelight in the night, the light of those incense candles.

Sun Youle couldn't help but sigh, there are only fifty or sixty households in this Dongqiao Village, and they are very poor, and there are only about a dozen small western-style buildings that can be seen everywhere in other rural areas, but they are extremely willing to pray to God and worship Buddha.

Came to the big banyan tree, Sun Youle looked up and observed the entire trunk, this is a very large banyan tree, it takes two or three people to hug it, the branches and leaves are luxuriant, and the shadows are not very real.

After walking around, Sun Youle didn't find anything, but he didn't give up immediately, but walked to the trunk of the tree, knocked it lightly, and he analyzed from the sound that it was empty.

"There seems to be something"

With a flashlight, Sun Youle looked up and saw that there seemed to be something in the branches, and without thinking too much, he bit the flashlight in his mouth, then rubbed his hands, and prepared to climb the tree.

Sun Youle was still able to do it, and soon climbed to a branch, and reached out to take what he saw from the branch.

"Ahh

However, at the moment when he stretched out his hand, suddenly, a face appeared in front of Sun Youle, right in front of him, and this sudden appearance of a human face scared Sun Youle into screaming.

Not only that, but even the one he stretched out touched a soft thing, and when Sun Youle looked up, he saw that he was holding a hand on his hand, which had been half rotten.

"Ahh

Sun Youle shouted, but he had forgotten that he was on the tree at this time, and in such a panic, he fell from the tree with a thud and lay on the ground.

He was about to get up from the ground, but suddenly found a pair of feet in front of him, he slowly raised his head, and the face slowly became frightened.
