Hearing this old man say that their village is also called Xiaohe Village, I was a little puzzled, because there is a Xiaohe Village next to the pontoon bridge in our township, I went to Zhang Kailong and Chen Laosan at noon that day, when the whole village was possessed by the dirty things in the Yellow River, all of them hid at home to sleep during the day, and only came out to do activities at night, and we were almost scared to death!

Why is this village also called Xiaohe Village? Could it be that there is a relationship between the two villages? I thought to myself.

Before Uncle Shi left the night before yesterday, he said that he was going to Xiaohe Village, so it shouldn't be this village! Suddenly, a series of questions came to my mind.

Soon the strange thin old man led the strange-looking child and disappeared into the Yellow River beach.

I asked the old men at the head of the group, "Is this high priest from your village?" That...... Who is that kid? ”

A few people threw the willow sticks in their hands into the slope on the side, and replied: "We don't know where the high priest is from, more than ten years ago there was a great plague in our village, and those who were infected with this plague first vomited and diarrhea, and slowly began to dehydrate their bodies...... Until it finally turns into a dried corpse. ”

At this time, the forensic doctor Xiao Li and Xiao Zhang and the driver also came over, probably after waking up and seeing that we were not there, after asking the driver, they knew that we were here, so they came over to have a look

Xiao Li happened to hear the old man mentioned "dehydration", so he replied casually: "If you are dehydrated, drink hard!" Or simply hang the hanging bottle and add some glucose. ”

Xiao Li is a straightforward personality, sometimes he speaks and does things too directly, and rarely takes into account the occasion.

The old man smiled bitterly twice and replied, "We have thought of all the methods you can think of, hey! It's useless!"

Xiao Li was a little unconvinced, and asked again: "It's useless to hang the bottle directly and inject glucose solution?" ”

Several of the old men shook their heads.

"That's weird!" Xiao Li was very puzzled.

As a forensic doctor, although she may not be able to see a doctor and prescribe medicine, they are proficient in the most basic medical knowledge, and in her medical knowledge, injecting glucose solution should be the most effective way to prevent dehydration in the body.

The old man continued: "A lot died that year! Later, the high priest came to our village, and he brought some colorful silkworm chrysalis, about the size of a fingernail of the little thumb, and it was also miraculous, as long as he swallowed this silkworm chrysalis alive, he would be cured! ”

Silkworm chrysalis? I wondered, how can there be such a cure in the world! I said in my heart. What a colorful silkworm chrysalis! If I'm not mistaken, it should be a kind of Gu worm, and this group of people should have all been Gu!

Xiao Li wanted to continue arguing about what had just happened, but I waved my hand to stop her, and she pouted unconvinced to look at the two sculptures.

"Do you know what you're doing?"

I shouted at the crowd.

"Just now? You young man, why are you forgetful! Didn't I tell you that we were holding a river sacrifice ceremony just now! Half a year ago, the high priest came once and told us that in half a year, the sky will mutate, and there will be a tengu devouring the moon, which is the Yellow River is going to punish us again, so the high priest dares to take us to hold a river sacrifice ceremony. ”

The old man replied.

The other old man continued, "You just asked us who the child next to the high priest is!" Actually, we don't know who it is! When the high priest first came to our village more than ten years ago, the child followed him like this, without speaking, without any expression, and with his whole body wrapped in it, and without black eyes! ”

"Could it be that more than ten years have passed, and this kid has not changed?" Zhang Kailong asked.

"Nothing has changed! The look and height haven't changed! The old man replied.

As soon as he heard that there was a child with black eyes, Xiao Li hurriedly ran over and asked with a face full of disbelief: "This can't be!" How can a living person not have black eyes! ”

Zhang Kailong deliberately stretched his face and pretended to be angry: "This is asking the case, what are you talking about as a forensic doctor?" ”

Xiao Li stuck out his tongue at Zhang Kailong, turned around and went to look at the bronze sculpture again.

Zhang Kailong asked: "Then do you know how you held the river sacrifice ceremony just now?" ”

Several old men first nodded, then shook their heads, and replied: "The high priest said that this kind of ritual is psychic, and once the ritual begins, our souls will be separated from the body, and naturally we will not remember what happened during this time. ”

"Do you believe that?"

Someone in the crowd shouted, "I didn't believe it at first...... But after all these things, we dare not disbelieve it, and besides, it is the high priest who said so, so why should he lie to us! ”

At this time, Chen Laosan, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "High priest? Who made you call it that? ”

A few of the crowd replied, "It's the high priest himself!" ”

Zhang Kailong was so keen, as soon as he heard these words, he felt that there was something wrong with this so-called high priest! He glanced at me and asked everyone, "I see that you are all gentlemen, what about the little daughter-in-law and the eldest girl in the village?" ”

As soon as Zhang Kailong asked, there was a sigh from the crowd.

"If it weren't for the women of the village, we wouldn't have to......"

As soon as you hear this, you know that something is wrong.

"I'm a policeman, don't you still believe in the people's police?"

Zhang Kailong hurriedly shouted.

"Let's be honest! We don't believe ......" The crowd responded a few more times.

The old man at the head of the group has seen the world, and his mood is relatively stable, he said to Zhang Kailong with a wry smile: "I know that there are many good people in the police, but the matter in our village has been reported to the police many times before, and the police station in the town has also come a few times, but it has not solved the problem at all!" Moreover...... Moreover...... Ay! ”

At the end, the old man sighed and swallowed the second half of the sentence back.

"What the hell is going on! You mean......"

Zhang Kailong was already an anxious person, and when he heard that they didn't believe the police, he was already a little angry, and he heard them say that he had called the police several times, but it was useless, and he was even more angry.

"Let me tell you! Several girls in our village had been insulted and had called the police, and the police took them to the police station, saying that they were going to make a record, but by the time they came back, one of them was dead, and the blood in the crotch of their pants had stained their pants red, and the others had become delirious. ”

It was a tall middle-aged man who spoke, with an angry face on his face.

"And this? When did this happen? Zhang Kailong's face changed after hearing this.

"It's probably in the early teens!" The old man at the head replied.

It turned out that since the plague began more than ten years ago, this village has become no longer peaceful, and over the years, strange and evil things have been one after another, causing a large village of one or two thousand people to become a miasma, and now there are less than 900 people left, and almost all the people who can move out have moved out.

The remaining 800 people were really afraid, they no longer believed in the police and doctors, and the whole village only believed in the so-called high priest.

Zhang Kailong whispered into my ear and said, "Can you see what is wrong with this group of people? ”

I nodded and said to the old man at the head, "Uncle! Can I feel your pulse? I don't think you look very good! My master is a well-known Chinese medicine practitioner......"

The old man seemed indifferent, and replied casually: "I'm a lonely old man!" Daughters are also ...... Ay! Take your liking! He held out his hand.

Where do I know how to know Chinese medicine! Just pretending to hold the old man's wrist, while secretly transporting the hot runner fingers in his body.

Immediately I felt a strange breath on my fingers, it was cold, but not too cold, something I had never felt before.

At this time, I suddenly felt that the spirit snake in my body was about to move, as if I was thinking about what message I was transmitting.

I rejoiced in my heart! Originally, it was just a try, pretending to be a big-tailed wolf once, but with the help of the spirit snake, this thing is easy to do, after all, it is the Gu King!

I calmed down and held my breath, and I heard a voice in my brain shouting at me: "Master, this is a 'zombie Gu', it's already an old Gu worm......

The spirit snake told me that there is an old Gu worm in the human body, called "Zombie Gu", people who have been poisoned by this kind of Gu poison usually look like normal people, but once the Gu poison attacks, the whole person is like a zombie, to put it bluntly, it is the walking dead, and his brain is completely closed.

The spirit snake can still feel that these people from this Xiaohe village have a zombie Gu worm in their bodies, this kind of insect looks like a small beetle, the color is very bright, it is a kind of Gu worm from the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.

This Gu worm feeds on the flesh and blood of cold-blooded animals such as snakes, lizards, and scorpions......

Hearing this, I seem to understand a series of strange behaviors of this group of people just now, they should have been controlled by this Gu worm (or the person who gave them Gu) to find food.

But I don't know what they are jumping and jumping and what they are thinking, why are so many snakes suddenly appearing in this soil? Maybe it's a way to summon snakes!

I tried to communicate with my mind and the snake.

I asked it: Is there a way to eliminate the "zombie Gu" in their bodies?

The spirit snake replied: This is not difficult, it can help with this, and the Dao Qi produced by the dragon egg in my body is also quite powerful, enough to destroy such a Gu worm, but I haven't played its role yet.

I suddenly remembered one thing, so I asked the spirit snake: Grandma said that we have the same heart, why sometimes I need you and want to call you out, you don't react!

The snake replied: When?

I said, "That day in the Land of Illusory Shadows."

As soon as the spirit snake heard this name, there was a commotion, and after the commotion, he replied: The evil qi in that place is too heavy, and the entire space was created by a person who is extremely high in Taoism, and it has no effect at all in that kind of place.

……

After some heart-to-heart conversation, I whispered to Zhang Kailong: "This group of people have all been tricked by Gu, and it is estimated that those who stay in the village are not much better, let's find an excuse to go into the village to have a look!" ”
