"It is said in ancient books that if a three-inch-long iron nail engraved with a charm is pierced into the head of a dying person, his soul can be taken as his own for the rest of his life, whether he is driven or imprisoned, in short, he will not be able to escape from the cage for the rest of his life."

Natia stood by the window and muttered that this was the forbidden book I had dug out of the old woman's room after her death.

Such books can teach how to drive the soul, and even worse, it is a thousand times more terrifying than a skull nail.

Su Yangzi turned his head to look at Natia's back, "So you're saying that this forbidden technique really works?" ”

"Who can say for sure if it doesn't work." Natia turned slowly, "There are some things that are not destined for us to explore, I am just telling you about things on the practical level, what do you think would happen if this kind of book fell into the hands of greedy people?" ”

Many people are not feudal superstitions, and they do not necessarily believe that there are ghosts and gods in this world, but if this kind of thing falls into the hands of their people, they will inevitably be distracted.

Sometimes what is more terrible than ghosts and gods is human greed.

What would a man do if he was told that by this way, the woman he could not get in love would stay with him forever?

If one person has a great hatred for another. If you tell him that this will give him revenge. So what kind of move will he make?

"Sometimes people are more terrible than ghosts." Natia whispered. "Officer Su, you are also the one who once personally exterminated a smuggling gang, you know how cunning and shady that group of people are, but you didn't get to the border. Wait to get there. You can understand that it is a place that is more terrible than hell. ”

That group of people did not think it was unusual for their own interests, even if they took the lives of others.

Each of them desperately wanted to climb up and up, in that way of a moth to a fire.

Step on the blood of others, walk up to a higher temple, and enjoy the feeling of being able to look down on thousands of people in the high places.

That's the real purgatory on earth.

"When I realized something was wrong with that book, I knew that there were a lot of things, even if I wanted to stop them, it was too late." Su Yangzi said in frustration, "At that time, I was not the only one who had frequent contact with the old woman, and other people who often lingered at the border would also go to chat with her for a while." I don't know what those people talked to her, but I only know one thing, they must have gotten some crucial information from the old woman, and then do something unexpected for their own benefit. ”

Natia turned her head to look at Su Yangzi, "Officer Su, do you know about the Hundred People Pit?" ”

Su Yangzi frowned, the Hundred Men Grave was a major homicide case that occurred on the Sino-Burmese border.

Before a huge smuggling gang could be wiped out, all the people inside had disappeared, and it was as if they had evaporated from the world.

Even the policemen who had been following this smuggling gang as undercover agents did not expect that this group of people who had been getting along with each other all of a sudden would suddenly disappear.

"So you're saying that the case was seized by you?"

Natia lowered her head and curled the corners of her lips a little bitterly, "Otherwise, why don't you think I'm going to be an undercover cop over there?" ”

It's because she has seen too many competing interests and too many people dying in front of her, so she can't accept such a result.

Obviously she wanted to do good for the people, but what she saw was the most disgusting and ugly things in the dark corners.

"When I got the book, I thought something was wrong, and then I thought about the smuggling gang that suddenly disappeared, and there were many people who were speculating about where that group of people had gone, some people said that they had made a windfall and ran out of the country to live in peace, and some people said that there was a riot in them, and after a fight, nearly half of the people died, and the rest were bored, so they left."

But only Natia knew that there might be a deeper secret.

She rummaged carefully through the old woman's room, and found a cellar under her bed.

The cellar was almost sealed, covered in a thin layer of dirt, so it looked almost the same as normal ground.

If she hadn't stepped on it and almost fell into the cellar, Natia wouldn't have noticed that there was something hidden there.

She sneaked down to the cellar, only to discover that it was almost the old woman's storehouse, or her treasure room.

There are many such fine paper figurines, and there are also many utensils for placing sacrifices.

But what surprised Natia the most was that there was a large cabinet against the wall, and it was lined with the same iron nails with charms she had found earlier.

But the nail didn't have time to be engraved with words, and it didn't rust, and it still looked shiny.

Natia understood that this was something that the old woman had not had time to do before she died. He died in a hurry.

But the most important thing is not how the nail is, but the cabinet is half empty.

In other words, half of the nails in the cabinet had been used, and Natia trembled to count the remaining nails, but fortunately the old woman had arranged them neatly before her death, and each row and column had whole numbers.

Natia counted the remaining nails and could figure out how much had been used.

But after counting the number that had been used, she was completely shocked, because the number that had been used was exactly the same as the number of missing people.

Natia had a guess in her heart, maybe someone with a heart also got this forbidden technique from the little old woman, and used it on another team, so that the person who disappeared from the smuggling gang had a grudge against them.

Natia was panicked and wanted to go out and tell her superiors the truth, but she was unsteady and fell down.

When she came back to her senses, she found that her whole body had fallen to the ground, and her whole body was in terrible pain, and she tried to get up from the ground with her arms propped up, but she accidentally glanced at the bottom of the cabinet.

The bottom of the cabinet was empty, and a pit had been dug inside.

Natia thought it was another cellar and called someone to dig it in, but the scene in front of her almost made Natia faint.

"Eighty-six heads." Natia raised her hand and compared a number to Su Yangzi, "Can you imagine it?" Eighty-nine people, their heads had begun to rot. ”
