Volume 1 Tanglin Tomb 10 Lin Shuang's corpse is nowhere to be found, and the centipede temple analyzes the case

Mu Chen hurriedly ran out and stopped a person, "What's the matter, what's going on?" ”

"It's Lin Shuang, Lin Shuang has cheated the corpse!"

"What!" Mu Chen snorted, "Trick the corpse? How can it be? ”

"It's a corpse, he, he crawled out of the dirt and walked away!" This person's name is Han Jinping, he is Yan'er's subordinate, he seems to be frightened, and his expression is very panicked.

Mu Chen hurriedly ran over, and the pit that had been turned over was empty, and there were indeed no corpses.

He didn't believe in any deceit, could it be that there was another group of people in this forest? However, this location is very close to the camping place, and there was a vigil last night, how did the other party dig up the body without knowing it?

Mu Chen carefully looked around, no! It's so clean around here! If a team of people did dig up the body last night, it would definitely leave a lot of marks nearby, although the ground is full of leaves, unlike mud, and there will always be traces when people step on it.

But now, although the scene was badly damaged, there was only one trace that stood out, and it went to the forest in front of it, and it was obviously not left by his own people. The point is, this trace is very shallow, and it should be the weight of only one person!

"Could it really be that this Lin Shuang's corpse ran away by himself?" Mu Chen looked along the trace, the forest in front of him was getting denser and denser, this Lin Shuang, where is he going?

"Ship boss, where does this trace lead?" Yan'er asked.

The boat boss took a closer look and thought again, "This, this seems to be the direction of that village!" ”

"Damn, how did he become aware of his way after he died?" Leng Ye grabbed Mu Chen, "Alas, buddy, do you say he is a zombie now, or a ghost?" Aren't you feng shui masters going to deal with these things, so help me draw a few talismans! ”

Mu Chen glanced at him, "That's the Taoist priest you said!" ”

Everyone packed up their things and followed the traces to move forward, although they now know the way, but when they think of a thing in front of them that they don't know if it is a person or a ghost, everyone has a little hairy in their hearts.

After a day of hurried walking, I finally came out of the forest and saw the lights when it was dark.

I don't know if this village has been isolated from the world for too long, it looks very quaint, and Mu Chen felt that he had come to ancient times for a while.

There is an ancient stone monument standing at the entrance of the village, which immediately attracts everyone's attention. The shape of this stele is very strange, it is not a regular shape, there are many symmetrical protrusions around it, but because it is too old and weathered, it is impossible to distinguish the specific shape. This monument should have been struck by lightning before, and the small part of it has been broken and gone. There are also many words engraved on the stele, but they are no longer recognizable, and only some grooves can be faintly seen.

Old Man Qin took out a magnifying glass from his bag and looked around the stone tablet several times. "Yes, this monument is definitely from the Jin Dynasty!"

"Looks like we've found the right place this time!" The fat man was delighted.

"Miss, the boat boss is gone!" Suddenly, someone shouted.

Yan'er snorted, "He's smart." Let's go to the village! ”

The houses in the village are also old-fashioned, but motorcycles are parked everywhere, and the combination of the two is awkward.

Although it was already dark at this time, it was only seven o'clock, but I don't know why, the doors and windows of every house in the whole village were closed, and no one was outside.

The group walked around the village for a long time, knocking on almost every door, and their mouths were about to wear out, but unexpectedly, no one answered, and no one opened the door. And after hearing a knock on the door, without exception, the people inside will turn off the lights.

Now, everyone is a little confused, what is going on in this village? Is it a habit that has been passed down since ancient times, or is it something they are hiding from?

Since this time it came out under the guise of a natural expedition team to study the ecosystem of Wugong Mountain, it was not convenient to forcibly break the door. The group was about to find a random place to set up a tent, and Mu Chen saw a note stuffed out from the bottom of the door of a house.

There are only two lines on it, "There is a Wugong Temple behind the village, which can be spent overnight." If you hear a sound outside the door, be sure to turn off the lights and silence the door. ”

This note should have been written by a girl, and the handwriting was beautiful. However, the characters are of different sizes and are not evenly spaced, and several are stacked on top of each other, which should have been written in the dark.

Mu Chen is a little strange, even if he doesn't turn on the lights, he always has a mobile phone, why not take a picture?

Moreover, what does the words on this note mean? Why can't you open the door and make a sound? What if so?

Mu Chen handed the note to Yan'er, and Yan'er also looked puzzled.

However, the villagers refused to open the door, and now it is very dark, and it is very likely to rain at night, so they can only go to the Wugong Temple for the night.

This Wugong Temple is not difficult to find, and it will be there soon. This temple is also an ancient building, but it is well maintained, it should be renovated and reinforced many times, and the hot stamping plaque with three big characters written "Wugong Temple" looks like it has been newly made recently.

But who knows, it's good outside, but after going in, I looked for a lot of circles, and I didn't find electric lights, and the whole village was the only one with no electricity. The crowd had no choice but to light a few candles on the offering table.

Mu Chen lit the candles, looked up, and was startled, what was enshrined in this temple was actually a stone statue with a centipede body!

Although there are similar offerings in other places, such as Fuxi and Nuwa, which are human-faced snake bodies, all the statues that are enshrined, no matter what the shape, are at least kind and full of Buddha's light. But this stone statue is fierce and vicious, with a strange shape, and it looks even more terrifying in the flickering candlelight.

Mu Chen looked at it twice, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this stone statue was a little familiar. If you think about it carefully, the bulge on the stone tablet at the entrance of the village is exactly the same as the centipede legs at this root. That's how it should be, since the people here worship centipedes, it is understandable that they are engraved on stone tablets.

In ancient times, the people were not wise, and they would worship all the terrible things that could not be fought against by human beings as gods. Although everyone has not seen the centipede in this mountain yet, the ferocity of its poison has already been experienced. Then, it is very likely that the ancients regarded it as a god, and felt that they had done something wrong before they would be punished by the gods, and as a result, this piece also had the custom of worshipping centipedes.

However, if this is the case, the wind of worship should have existed in ancient times, but why did the stone monument at the entrance of the village belong to the Jin Dynasty? Why is it the same era as Guo Pu? Isn't this too coincidental?

Although she knew that there should be no danger, Yan'er still asked everyone to check the entire temple seriously, and then put down her backpack and sat down to rest.

On this day, everyone has been in a hurry, and they don't even have time to eat, and they are already tired. I had been holding a string before, but it was nothing, but when I sat down, all the tiredness came up, and now Mu Chenfan was too lazy to eat, and just wanted to go to bed quickly.

However, it is very strange that everyone hurried to chase after each other, but they never saw Lin Shuang. At first, there were still some traces to follow, but later, as we got closer to the village, the traces of human activity increased sharply, and there were no clues. I don't know if he's in the village or if he's still wandering around the woods.

"Miss Yan'er, what do you think about Lin Shuang?" Old Man Qin stroked his beard and asked with a serious face.

"Strange!" Yan'er thought for a moment and spit out two words.

"It's really weird! My old man has been in the tomb for half his life, and I have never seen any kind of corpse. But after he died, he crawled out again, and he obediently led the way in front without harming anyone or causing trouble, but he had never heard of it. ”

"In my opinion, he is not dead at all, he was controlled by someone and deliberately brought us here." The fat man said.

"We're here for this!" This time it was the thin man who spoke.

This was the first time Mu Chen had heard the thin man speak, in the past two days, this person had never made a sound, and Mu Chen even thought he was a mute.

The fat man thought for a moment, "Yes." So what's going on here? ”

For a moment, everyone was silent.

Mu Chen has never been able to figure it out about this matter, but he doesn't believe in any words like cheating corpses and resurrecting from the dead, of course, it is impossible to manipulate corpses, how can there be so many strange things in this blue sky. So, he always suspected that someone was playing tricks.

There is a large amount of turbidity and mold in that forest, which are mixed together and play some special roles, such as hallucinogenic and reducing people's five senses, it is possible. Although everyone wore gas masks, they also inhaled more or less because of eating, drinking, etc. Therefore, it is not impossible to dig up the body without alarming everyone.

As for the only trace, it can only prove that a person has walked there, and it is not clear whether he came or left.

So now the only question is, how did this person carry a corpse on his back without leaving too many marks?

"Cold night, the legendary light skills, like Ling Bo treading water, crossing the river with a reed and the like, can you really do it?" These are common in martial arts novels, but in real life, are there really people who do?

"Do you suspect that someone took Lin Shuang's body?" I have to say that although the cold night is forced, the IQ is sometimes still online.

Mu Chen nodded.

"Theoretically, it's possible, but it's extremely physically demanding, and it won't last long. And the traces we saw along the way were very consistent, and there was no change before and after, so it was absolutely impossible. Cold Night was very firm and gave the answer.

Since this is the case, it means that there is only one person who walks in front of him from beginning to end! Naturally, it is impossible for the corpse to walk on its own, so is there any other possibility?

Wait, Mu Chen's mind suddenly flashed with inspiration.

"Jiangshan, after you buried Lin Shuang, did you leave any mark?
