Professor Hu Liangguo is an expert in folklore, who has been in the Nanyun area all the year round, and knows more about witchcraft than us. I asked the little glasses to stop and asked some questions about the Golden Centipede and asked if it had any way to help recognize its master.

Professor Hu Liangguo sighed and said: "Your grandmother will know how to do it, so don't worry about that." ”

I was speechless about this, but it was also true, my grandmother had been dealing with Gu Poison all year round, and she couldn't handle it, so I would just add to the chaos.

Seeing my disappointed face, Professor Hu Liangguo said again: "You can't help with the matter of recognizing the Lord, but you can stop some people outside, and in times of crisis, you can also lure the blood and gold centipede away." ”

"How?"

Hu Liangguo pushed his glasses and said: "Centipedes are afraid of big roosters, but on the contrary, centipedes also like to suck chicken blood very much, just want to lure away the blue blood golden centipede, ordinary rooster blood is useless, you need the blood of black pearls." ”

Black pearl is a free-range chicken breed in Miao Village, the rooster is black, and the hen is snow-white, which is somewhat similar to the white phoenix chicken. Legend has it that it was an ancient breed of poultry and phoenixes, which I saw on the street when I was a child, but the bloodline was not pure, and the feathers were variegated.

When I was in my first year of junior high school, I had an illness, and my grandfather took a lot of effort to get me a pure-blooded black pearl from the Miao doctor, which I used to stew herbs for me to eat.

I was in a coma at the time, and I hadn't seen Black Pearl, but my mother told me about it when I was eating meat later. Now it's a moment and a half, where are we going to get the black pearl?

Thinking of the way of restraint, I said, "If we find the black pearl, and the blue blood golden centipede will get out of control at that time, or it will fall into the hands of others, can we use the black pearl to deal with it?"

Professor Hu Liangguo listened to my words, shook his head and said: "The blue blood golden centipede has been raised for decades, and it feeds on poisons all year round, not to mention the amazing toxins in the body, not to mention animals within 100 meters, even plants are difficult to survive, to explain it scientifically, that is, the genes have changed, and the black pearl has not been evolved, and it is powerless to fight against the toxins of the blue blood golden centipede, and it is likely that it will not even be able to get close." ”

I thought about it too, and continued to ask: "Professor Hu, do you know where there are still black pearls now?" ”

Among us, the only one who can find the black pearl is Hu Liangguo.

"Let's go to Dongba Town first!" Professor Hu Guoliang seemed to be worried about something, but did not say it immediately.

He said this, and I didn't ask any questions, took a shower, changed my clothes, took out the food in the fridge, and made a simple meal.

When I arrived in Dongba Town, it was already completely dark, and the deep mountain town could only be regarded as a small street, and some tricycles and motorcycles were parked on the street. The small shop is also basically closed.

I was going to stop here for the night, but Professor Hu Guoliang showed the driver a way, and the car drove out of the town again.

Where Miao people gather, there are a lot of bamboo, and most of the houses along the way are mainly built of bamboo, and there are bamboo fences everywhere on the roadside. A kilometer or two away from the town, the cement road is gone, replaced by a potholed mud road, even if the RV is off-road, sitting in it is also shaking, the daughter-in-law and children can't sleep steadily, get up with a shy face, sit down on the seat, and pull on the seat belt.

Hu Guoliang pointed the way again, and the mountain road was more rugged, it was completely a winding mountain road, and at midnight, the car suddenly stopped, and the driver turned around and said, "Boss Ding, there is no road ahead." ”

I opened my seat belt, leaned in front of me and looked at the headlights, the road in front of me was even more muddy, potholes, and very narrow, no longer enough for the RV to pass, even if I could barely pass, it was difficult to turn around when I encountered anything on the way.

After observing, I was about to ask the driver to find a place to park and rest for the night, but Professor Hu Guoliang carried a brown paper bag on his back, stood up and said: "We went into the mountain overnight, so it is not easy to be followed!" ”

Zheng Jun and Chen Chuan searched around the village, but the scope of their investigation was limited, and there was no guarantee that Cui Qinghe and they would not follow. Then I climbed onto the roof of the RV and looked at the road from which I came, it was pitch black and there was no light in sight.

If there is a car, on this rugged mountain road, even a skilled old driver will never dare to drive in the dark, even if they have a night vision device in their hands, they will not dare to go.

I looked at it and said, "Professor Hu, it looks like there is no tail behind you, it's getting late now, let's go tomorrow!" "I'm not worried about others, I'm worried about him, after all, at the age of seventy or eighty, it's too dangerous to stay up late and walk on mountain roads.

But Professor Hu Liangguo said with some blame: "You doll, there are so many words, I just say go, don't be verbose." ”

I smiled speechlessly, used the walkie-talkie to inform Li Lin, asked him to carry a bag and bring dry food, and simply packed up, and our group walked towards the mountain under the leadership of Hu Liangguo.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the air began to become humid, there was morning dew on the weeds on the side of the road, and everyone's hair was wet.

Because of the trouble, the daughter-in-law lowered her head all the way, did not say a word, and followed us silently.

After walking for three or four hours, the sound of a rooster crowing suddenly came from the dense mountain forest. Deep in the mountains and old forests, there are a lot of pheasants, but it is easy to distinguish.

Because the pheasants in the mountains run and fly all year round, they are thinner, their muscles are strong, and their crowing sounds are relatively sharp and penetrating, and they can be heard across a mountain.

The domestic chicken is just the opposite, the sound is muddy, the penetration is not strong, now what I hear is the domestic rooster crowing, it is estimated that there is a village three or five miles ahead, which may be the destination that Hu Liangguo wants to take us to.

Speaking of the rooster's crowing, Hu Liangguo said: "Black pearls, regardless of male or female, will not make any sound throughout their lives, so they are also called black elves in the dark night by the Miao people."

I've eaten Black Pearl's chicken, but I've never seen a chicken run, and I can't imagine it for a while.

After turning over a few mountain bags, when the sky was white, a few stilted buildings appeared in the mountains and forests, looming in the morning mist.

The mountain wind blew, and Ermao, who had been walking in front of Hu Liangguo, suddenly stopped, lowered his body, and let out a whining roar in his throat.

I was about to go over, but when I sniffed hard, I found that the fresh air was mixed with a faint smell of blood.

At this time, not only me, but Li Lin and the others also smelled this blood, and they all became nervous. Zheng Jun and Chen Chuan took off the folding recurve crossbow on their calves, opened it and said, "Turn off the flashlight, let's go down and take a look first." ”

As the words fell, the two put on night vision devices and quietly disappeared into the woods.

We also turned off our flashlights and squatted in the grass on both sides of the roadside, holding the dragon slashing knife in my hand, staring nervously at the village in front of us.

Hu Liangguo's whole person was very uneasy, and he kept muttering, and I listened carefully, he was praying.

Piff is not guilty of his crimes, we know the black pearl, others may not know. The smell of blood in the village also made me very uneasy, but at this time, I couldn't guess, so I could only keep reassuring Professor Hu that it was okay.

More than half an hour later, the sound of flicking came from the walkie-talkie between me and Li Lin at the same time, and I hurriedly turned on the walkie-talkie and asked, "How is the situation?" ”

"Ding Ning, you'd better come down and see for yourself!" Zheng Jun's tone was very solemn, conveying uneasiness.

As soon as I heard this, I and Li Lin supported Hu Liangguo left and right, with small glasses and daughter-in-law, followed Ermao and walked quickly towards the village, as I got closer, the smell of blood in the air became stronger.

Hu Liangguo's hands were trembling slightly, we arrived at the entrance of the village, and we saw Zheng Jun and Chen Chuan squatting on the ground a hundred meters away, and in front of the two, there was a corpse dressed as a Miao people.

Hu Liangguo pushed me and Li Lin away, staggered over, he knew the person lying on the ground, and instantly burst into tears.

Chen Chuan and Zheng Jun are used to seeing life and death, and they are relatively calm, I went to Zheng Jun and said: "The fatal wound is in the throat, there is not much fighting, a knife seals the throat, looking at the shape of the wound, it should be a weapon similar to a Tang knife." ”

As he spoke, Zheng Jun pulled me aside and whispered, "We have been in, and there are a total of 58 people in the village, all of whom are ......."

When Zheng Jun said this, his teeth were also rattling, and he couldn't continue.

In modern times, no one in China uses the Tang sword, but the samurai sword of the Sakura Country has inherited the system of the Tang sword, and it can only be the group of Sakura ghosts.

I called the little glasses over and told him to take care of Professor Hu here and not let him enter the village.

"Old Miao! Old seedlings! Professor Hu was so sad that he sat on the ground, holding the corpse of the old Miao man in his arms, crying sadly and out of breath.

The little glasses hurried over, constantly reassuring.

I can't say how I feel in my heart, but my fists are clenched, my throat is a little hard, and when I enter the village, my eyes are red, and on the small road of the village, in front of the house, there are all corpses. Big and small, no one is spared.

Halfway through, I felt as if all my strength had been drained, and I sat on the side of the road with my head blank, looking at the stockade in front of me, and I couldn't let go of my fingers.

"Isn't there someone up there?" After a while, Li Lincai asked hoarsely.

The fat man said, "The place is too far away, and they won't be able to manage it for a while, but they will never sit idly by." The fat man's voice was also a little trembling, and then he said: "I just looked, the rest of the chicken pen are ordinary chickens, but there are many footprints in it, and the black pearls in the village are probably all captured." ”

"Find, find the direction they left, we have to catch up with them, otherwise there will only be more victims." I stood up, and the blood in my body was surging, and I couldn't calm down for a long time.

Chen Chuan said: "I and the squad leader have seen it, it is very clean, and there is no trace left!" ”

Hearing this, my emotions suddenly lost control, and I reached out and pulled Chen Chuan's collar and said, "Isn't this your ability?" What are your roles? Why can't it be? ”

Seeing this, the fat man and Li Lin hurriedly came over and pulled me, and persuaded me: "Ding Ning, our mood is the same as yours, calm down first." ”

Zheng Jun also said: "Looking at the coagulation of the bloodstains, the tragedy should have happened in the early hours of yesterday morning, and it was very clean, and there was indeed no trace left." ”

I know that Zheng Jun and Chen Chuan are both masters of lurking and tracking, and if they can't find it, then they really can't find it. It's just the scene in front of me that makes me panic.

The fat man helped me and asked me to sit and rest, I gasped for breath, and was just about to sit down, when Ermao, who had been quiet, suddenly burst out and threw himself towards the path next to the stilted building.
