"You know, the interests of the whole village are the same."

"The whole village... Oh, yes. Jian decided to figure it out for himself. He has experienced a lot of things, both people and ghosts, they are born for selfish desires, and they die for greed. Ghost detectives are different from ordinary supernatural masters and Taoist priests, they are more inclined to solve crimes. Before making a decision, I looked at the series of information spoken by the spiritual position, which is the ability to profile.

There is a small consensus among ghost detectives: a ghost, a group of people behind it.

"The doctor's words are obvious, let's find the source of this baby's body. Did you mention the information you were looking for? Li Zhonglou looked around and found no other clues. Sometimes he accidentally looked at the baby mother, and was coldly stared at by that strange look, and hurriedly looked away. It felt as if the two of them had become sneaky thieves under the watchful eye of the baby.

"It's uncomfortable." Jian Jue frowned, "If you want to talk about information, I have found old photos. Let's put it this way, in 1951 you can still see a group photo of the craftsmen, and the puppet troupe was also a show in the town at that time. By '86, the village had been largely cut off from information. There are two problems in this village, first, who is the zombie refining. Second, why did those craftsmen disappear? We encountered a zombie problem, but Xiao Ran's father's diary said that he was a craftsman who stayed in the village. So, I also want to find those craftsmen. We haven't seen the mage in the whole village, and it is estimated that he is at the village chief's house. ”

Li Zhonglou didn't seem to listen to Jian Duan's analysis, and was walking around the ancestral hall, reading something as he walked.

"Hey, Brother Li, don't go around in circles at this time." Jane called out to him.

"Something is wrong," Li Zhonglou pointed to the ground with certainty, "It's the same old thing, the underground floor is loose." ”

"What's buried in the ground?" Jian Jue immediately understood, took out the folding shovel directly from his bag, and did not talk nonsense, squatting down and prying the floor hard.

Li Zhonglou came over to help, and as expected, a piece of plasterboard was pried open. However, Jian Jue was very careful not to break the piece that was pryed off, but put it aside lightly.

There was dirt under the floor, and the two sighed and began to dig the soil by hand again.

"It's not easy to do this..."

"yes, yes."

After planing for a while, Jian Jue touched a cold porcelain body, and took out half of it to see that it was a white statue of Guanyin, which was splashed with blood, and it could only be black dog blood. The statue itself is in tatters.

"Damn, the true god was mutilated like this, no wonder that evil god dared to sit in the temple." Jian Jue knew that the original Guanyin statues and Buddha statues in this village were no longer available, and they themselves must have been buried and broken.

However, Li Zhonglou's eyes lit up, and he dug out a palm-sized statue of Guanyin from below. Although it is an ordinary statue of Guanyin of the South China Sea, there is no damage.

"Take this away. We restored the ground for them. Li Zhonglou invited Guanyin into his pocket and began to bring the soil back. The two of them leveled the ground over and over again and sighed to each other: "It's really not easy to do this." ”

Carefully put the floor back, and if you don't look closely, you can't see some small cracks. Jian Jue was relieved, blew a few breaths on the ground, and got up. "Okay, Brother Li, let's go to the village chief's house."

Just as the two were about to return the way they came, some noise was heard outside. Because the village is quiet, the sound of opening and closing the door is particularly obvious.

Li Zhonglou looked at the window next to the door and saw that several families outside had entered the door from the outside. However, after entering the door, there was silence again, as if it was a hallucination, and nothing happened.

Jian Jue asked what was the matter, Li Zhonglou pondered for a moment, and replied to him, "A few villagers went out quietly, I just saw them come back, why did you say they went out together?" ”

"Let's go to the toilet together," Jane joked, but leaned over to look at it, "they must have gone out together for the same purpose." No, go back first, send those college students back, they can't stay here. We have already attracted the attention of the village. ”

Jian Jue always had a bad premonition, and when he proposed this, Li Zhonglou also thought about it. But he also looked out the window, and was surprised to find that the villagers seemed to go out one after another as if they were spontaneously, and they nodded to each other and looked at each other, as if they were all tacit.

Li Zhonglou beckoned Jian Jue to come and see, and Jian Jue also saw it. Jian Du analyzed: "They are together, then I should be decisive, and the village chief should also leave." We should be safe now when we go to the village chief's house. ”

"Do you know where the village chief's house is?"

"This I.... You know. Jian Jue took out an old photo, on which was a group photo of the characters, a news photo of the era, and several simple young people with red armbands stood in front of a room. The sign on the house is the Shenmu Village Village Committee.

According to the news, the educated youths came to the village and were warmly received at the entrance of the village. Then he went to the village chief's house with the village chief, because the location was convenient and close to the meeting place, the village chief directly changed his family compound into a village committee. After Jian Du finished speaking, he smiled, "From this, we can know that at least not far from the temple, the courtyard is very large, at least there are a few bungalows in the courtyard.... There must still be slogans left on the wall, and the door number can be removed, but there are also traces. ”

Li Zhonglou sighed after hearing this, the profession of the ghost detective is still different.

He went out the same way, and on the way he said that he originally wanted to be a detective a little more. However, the conversation did not continue, and in the face of the quiet village, they even restrained their breath. According to a few clues, he really found the village chief's house, although the door number was covered by a creeper, Jian Jue still saw it with sharp eyes, and there were still remnants of red paint on the wall.

Jian decided that he climbed over the wall twice, landed lightly, and sure enough, he saw a large courtyard.

"This should have been left by the landlord in the past, and the landlord lived with the village chief and village cadres in those years." Jian Du guessed. However, someone came out of the inner room, and two people hid next to the house and peeked through the corner.

It was a woman who came out, her clothes were very old, but they were very clean, with a simple ponytail and a small grade. Her face was haggard, and the corners of her eyes were bent downward, as if she were about to cry. But the movement in the house made her hold back tears, and she shouted helplessly: "Mom! Don't you come out, I'll go out to see the old man go to the paws. You don't come out! Don't scare me ...... The woman stepped back, she was afraid of something in the room.

She begged and wanted to get out.

Unexpectedly, the house's.... It's still out.....

Jian Jue and Li Zhonglou saw that it was an old man with bent legs and feet, his body was skinny, and several clothes seemed to be hanging on her weakly.... It was a woman in her hair, but she had a complicated string of copper coins on her head and hands, and thick iron chains around her feet, which were tied to her poor very thin ankles, and the chains made a heavy grinding sound on the ground.

"Ah......h The old man's head moved, and his bones clicked like a stiff and indistinct sound pulling flesh.

The woman fell to the ground and began to cry.

Li Zhonglou quickly took out a talisman, rushed forward when the old man turned his head, and fixed it on her head. At this time, the old man could not step on it.

The old man's green skin and white salt showed that she had become a zombie, left with a spirit and a soul, neither human nor ghost, unconscious, almost instinctively walking, just an empty shell controlled by man.

"You're ......." The woman stopped crying.

"Auntie, we ......." Li Zhonglou didn't know what to say for a while.

Unexpectedly, the woman crawled over and hugged his legs, and then cried, "I'm not alive, can you save me..... Woo, what a day.... I said dead, and he didn't believe it..... Now it's like a monster, like a ghost.... You don't know, you're doing a living road at the top of the house, that thing will stare at you, keep staring, where you go, it will slowly follow, woo, I'm not alive~~~ I'm scared every day, if you don't give it something to eat, it will come to bite you.... ”

Li Zhonglou and Jian Jue hurriedly helped her up, and the three of them entered the house, and after a while, the woman calmed down.

When she heard the purpose of Jian Jue's group, she glared at them with blood-red eyes and told them what happened before: "The surname Liu has hurt me!" When I got married, I was not allowed to go back to my parents' house. Later, I realized that my mother was already dead, and I listened to the Taoist priest. Put it in water, wear copper coins, sticker charms, burn dead people's candles .... To prevent rotting, you have to marinate it all over your body. One day, the just moved, didn't speak, had blank eyes, and kept watching you. Later, he would walk away, like a wooden man, wandering around the house. You call her, and she turns her head slowly, slowly, still to see you, and then walks straight towards you..... As a result, hum, not a single dead corpse! Now it's not rotten! In order not to be accused, he asked that Taoist priest to teach others, and if he really can't be a zombie, he will refine puppet ghosts, and he is not a group of dead people! The whole village is crazy! ”

"Puppeteer?" Jian Jue heard the word again.

"I don't know..... Anyway, if I go on, you guys go out immediately, call the police, and arrest those who should be arrested! None of them can escape! The woman's face was full of hatred, and she looked at the object outside the door, and her eyes suddenly became desperate. She stopped talking, stood up, and for a long time, said, "I don't know.... I'm not a ghost. ”

Jian Jue was flustered when he heard this, and he felt very sad. "Auntie, don't worry, I will find out about this matter and try my best to solve it."

"No! Run! The woman looked at them and said, "The one surnamed Liu seems to have gone to a meeting.... I don't know if it's your business! They are all in one village! Not a good thing! Say no more, you guys go quickly! After speaking, the woman was about to rush Jian to kill them, she pushed, dragged, and without waiting for Jian to say a word, she locked him out of the hospital.

"Auntie? Aunt? Jian Jue knocked on the door, looking puzzled.

"Forget it...... It's not easy for us to stay here for long, so hurry back and take that group of students away. Li Zhonglou reminded Jian in a low voice.

Jian Jue and Li Zhonglou really left quickly because of the safety of that group of students.

The woman leaned against the door, and suddenly grinned, and then burst into tears, and then let out a strange scream. She stumbled into the house, took out the key, and with a trembling hand, unlocked the lock. She sweated a little on her forehead, wiped it with a handkerchief, wiped her face, and her eyes gradually looked at the object.

She tore the talisman off, and the object's eyes turned to her......
