Galen and Summer drove to the foot of the Will Forest, where a car was parked in front of it with a man in a police uniform.

Galen got out of the car, came to the car with his backpack on his back, and greeted the man, "Hi, I'm Galen, it's summer, we're from the Paranormal Institute,"

The man put down the map in his hand and said politely, "Jiang Tao, from the Weill Forest Bureau, it's not too early, get into my pickup truck, the mountain roads here are not easy to walk." ”

As she put her things on the pickup truck, Summer quipped, "Looks like the place we're going to must be primitive." ”

Jiang Tao said, "Yes, it will be wonderful." ”

"Is there a bullet hole in the windshield?" Galen caught a glimpse of a hole in the front windshield of the pickup truck, and on the perimeter of the hole was shattered glass.

Jiang Tao said, "Point 22 caliber, not bad, this kind of caliber ammunition does not hunt many prey, of course, except for those forest police." Those environmentalists are not small actors, and I don't know where to get the shotguns. ”

Galen said, "Do you think they shot you?" ”

Jiang Tao said, "Let me be clear, I have no problem with environmentalists, I care about forests and the environment like everyone else, but I can't accept what they do." ”

"Do you think they did this?" They killed those lumberjacks? ”

Jiang Tao put away the map, put it in his arms, smiled and said, "In short, if you don't want to be shot by them, it's best to follow me closely, these people have no humanity." ”

Xia remembered something at this time and asked, "Officer Jiang, do you have any records of the sudden disappearance of the lumberjacks 30 years ago?" ”

Jiang Tao had already stepped into the driver's seat at this time, "There were also people who went to check back then, but without exception, no one who went came back, at that time, every household said that there were forest ghosts in the mountains, and it was forest ghosts that ate all the workers." ”

Summer and Galen also got into the car, especially Summer, she asked curiously, "Sen ghost?" What is that? ”

"The forest ghost is a legend here, it is a mythical beast raised by Nuwa Niangniang, and then Nuwa Niangniang left, he came to the world, because he likes the forest, so everyone calls him the forest ghost, the forest ghost's favorite is the tree, if you see someone cutting down trees, you will definitely punish them." Jiang Tao had already started the car and was driving on the rugged mountain road, the light rain was still falling, and the car was driving very slowly.

Galen said, "I've heard of the forest ghost, in the supernatural phenomenon research institute records about him, legend has it that this beast is more than two meters tall, with a grimace, and below the face is a human body, hands over the knees, infinite strength, and terrifying. In the 60s, in a forest on the border between the south and Vietnam, there was an expedition team in the country, and when they were inspecting an ancient tomb, they encountered a forest ghost, which was about three meters high, with teeth and claws, green skin all over the body, and three eyes were blood-red. ”

Jiang Tao said, "I'm sorry, I'm a materialist, I usually don't believe in these legends, as for the forest ghosts or something, they are all imaginary, but the witches in the town believe in the existence of forest ghosts, and often bring chickens and ducks to worship in the forest, someone followed the witch, saying that they saw a black shadow, and the brush flew in front of the witch, and the chicken and duck disappeared." ”

Summer thought it was a little funny, "I think it might be a chimpanzee, the man is old and dizzy, and he can't see clearly." ”

Jiang Tao smiled, not talking, but concentrating on driving.

Galen was thoughtful, he looked at Jiang Tao in front of him, and suddenly, at the moment when Jiang Tao turned his neck, there was a tattoo on the back of Jiang Tao's neck, this tattoo was a circle, and there were also layers of circles in the circle, this pattern, he seemed to have seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

The time had come to the afternoon, and the pickup truck had traveled two-thirds of the way, when a few people were bored, they suddenly heard a bang, which turned out to be a punctured tire.

"Damn it, these environmentalists are criminals." Jiang Tao said.

Summer was a little confused, and said, "General Jiang, why do you say that." ”

Officer Jiang got out of the car, and Xia Xia and Galen also got out of the car, and Officer Jiang pulled out an iron nail from under the tire, this iron nail was square, and there were four spikes erected on it, and there were four or five more iron nails in front of the car.

When Galen saw it, he was also speechless, "It seems that I also start to dislike these environmentalists, it's really annoying." ”

Summer said, "What are we going to do now?" ”

Jiang Tao took out his backpack from the car and said, "Now I can only abandon the car and walk, it's okay, it's not far from the safe house, let's go." With that, he took the lead and walked forward.

Galen and Summer had no choice but to put on their backpacks and follow.

The muddy mountain road was difficult to walk, and several people inevitably had a lot of mud, weeds and water droplets stuck to their bodies.

"It's a good trip, it's much more refreshing than climbing a mountain." ”

Galen knew that Summer was teasing him, and said, "Otherwise, let's be bored in the office, looking at the pictures of UFOs from the forties and fifties, or looking for the traces of those Bigfoot, and I will definitely find a Bigfoot here." ”

"Wow, Bigfoot, I've seen one, no, Bigfoot's footprints to be exact," Jiang Tao walked in front and suddenly turned his face and said.

Xia said, "I thought you didn't believe in idealism? ”

"Ah, that's when I was a kid, and I saw a row of huge footprints in the snow, the size of two adult footprints, and only three toes, and now I think there really was a snowman." Jiang Tao said again.

It was almost dark, and several people soon came to the safe house, at this time, a middle-aged man came out of the house, with a big beard and a cowboy hat, he stretched out his hand and shook hands with everyone, and said, "My name is Pete, I am the head of the lumberyard, these two should be the people of the Paranormal Research Institute, I am glad to meet them,"

"Summer,"

"Galen,"

Jiang Tao and Pete have known each other for a long time, so it was just me who shook hands.

Pete led the three of them straight into the house, which was very messy, with a long table in the middle, and leftover lunches on it, and coats lying on chairs.

"It seems that these people are in a hurry. ”

Pete said, "Well, it was noon when I came here, but there was no one, inside and out, even in the surrounding forests, but there was no one. ”

Galen said, "Did you radio to the outside?" ”

Pete said, "You'll find out if you come with me,"

Then the four of them went outside and walked over to the diesel generator and found that it had been destroyed.

The four of them began to search, Galen came to the truck in front of the door, lifted the car cover, and found some white things in the fuel tank, he picked out a few grains with his hands, and found that it was actually rice, the whole mailbox was stuffed with rice, and although there was no rice stuffed in the mailbox in the other car, the fireline was removed, Galen tried to start it, but there was no response.

Cars were vandalized, generators were vandalized, radios were vandalized, and these environmentalists were trying to drive the workers to a dead end.
