Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Missing Team
According to the report, after inspecting the corpses, Lin Daochang's face suddenly became ugly.
According to the original words of Lin Daochang, "It is for the sake of delusion that a person dies but the corpse does not die." Death is restless, and resentment can attract demons. The evil and chaotic times, the evil world is the end of the incident, and the catastrophe is coming. ”
To be reasonable, Lei Chan doesn't really understand what a lump means. So let the author explain this mess a little bit by changing it to human words:
To put it simply, these guys are already hanging, but the corpses are not. As the saying goes, when a person dies, the lights go out, but when a person dies, the corpse is not at peace, so he must be angry. This resentment is as obvious as hanging out with a lantern in the dark, so it doesn't take long for countless demons and monsters to come to the door and use this 'bus' to fool around.
Finally, let's summarize roughly, disaster is coming, wash your underwear and be afraid!
...
Lei Chan closed the record that was a bunch of nonsense, and he could see that Lin Daochang definitely didn't understand how the blood on the bodies of those corpses disappeared and where the blood went.
Then he turned over the development of events.
The development of events was also just as Lei Chan had guessed in the freeze-frame world, and Daoist Lin quickly set off for Wanzi Village with his two apprentices, accompanied by a reinforced company. The village incident was over, and Lei Chan didn't want to dwell on what would happen to the dead villagers, but it didn't end there.
Lin Daochang seems to have found some clues in the village, and Lin Daochang, who has always only acted with apprentices in the past, actually asked the Brotherhood for help this time rarely.
Oh... I'm sorry, please forgive the author's carelessness, but Lin Daochang has always existed as a wandering exorcist. However, he has dealt with too many things that the Brotherhood can't handle, and has survived many terrible "annihilation" events, and has always been a desirable existence in the Celestial Empire.
Returning to the text, after receiving Lin Daochang's request for help, the Brotherhood naturally attached great importance to it. It just so happened that Fr. Maureen, who was doing church activities in HK at that time, was nearby, and Fr. Maureen, who held high the banner of "God loves the world", naturally became the leader of the support.
Father Morin soon arrived in Shuzhong to meet with Lin Daochang, and Father Morin was accompanied by three brotherhood exorcists, basically all of whom were C-level certified exorcists. However, it can be seen that these three people are not big characters, because the report in Lei Chan's hand does not even mention their names. Of course, it may also be hidden.
Lei Chan turned to the next page, and the time recorded in the report was already three days later, that is, the last news to report the whereabouts of Father Mo Lin and Lin Daochang and his party before they disappeared.
It was just a photocopy, and the pattern on it was a blank sheet of paper with a string of scribbled text written on it. It can be seen that the person who wrote this note at that time was either in a very unhappy mood or because he was in too much of a hurry.
The text reads: Human blood is not strange and disappears, there are demons about to appear, we will continue to move southwest, and the matter should be related to the disappeared tomb of the King of Shu.
That's the end of the note, and it's been passed back with the troops. According to the soldiers who were present at the time, it was Father Morin who handed him the note, but the handwriting was obviously not Father Morin's, but should have been written by Daoist Lin or his apprentice. The group set off west with some equipment and provisions, and never been seen again.
Realizing that something was wrong, the Shuzhong Brotherhood liaison sent a request for help to the Brotherhood branch in HK. So, the second wave of support departed from HK... Uh, no, it's a departure. Together with the local exorcists in Shuzhong, plus the support from HK, a total of nearly 20 people set off.
The group also conducted an investigation in Wanzi Village, and after leaving more detailed records, they advanced to the mountains and forests to the west.
Lei Chan flipped to the next document, and the recorder of this one was none other than the exorcist of the second wave of support teams.
It states that the team spent the night in Wanzi Village, and found the house where Chief Lin and Father Morin had stayed. Following some of the clues left in the house, they finally found the direction in which Father Morin and his party were heading, and after sending a member of the team to bring back a coordinate, the rescue team set off west.
I have to say that this group of guys is only a little better than Father Morin and his party. Three days after the group also set off, they lost contact.
To tell the truth, the guy in charge of liaison in Shuzhong is really unlucky, and every time he asks for help, the reinforcements are missing. Although it wasn't his reason, I have to say that this thing's face was also black to a certain extent. On the fifth day after losing contact, the hapless boy realized that the second wave of reinforcements might be the same as Father Morin and his party, and when they lost contact, the two members of the rescue team returned.
The two men finally brought the last news of the rescue team, which had successfully found the traces of Father Morin and his party after crossing two mountains to the west. Following their trail, he turned south and continued on his way.
After the next day, they lost track of Father Maureen and his party, and only found the camp where they had camped for the last time. Strangely, there were still people in the camp, but Father Morin and his party were nowhere to be seen. Judging from the state of the camp, Father Morin and his party should have encountered an unexpected situation, and only brought a small part of the supplies to the southwest.
After a brief search in the camp, the rescue team found some of the notes left by one of the exorcists. The notes are all about what the group has seen and heard after they set off. Perhaps because of the different countries, there is not much communication between the three of the exorcists from the West and the three of them, and the useful content left in this notebook is also poor.
Only on the last page of the missing team, the owner of this notebook has two phrases written: one is the night for the dead! The other is the tomb of the King of Shu! These two phrases are circled by a heavy brush, indicating their importance.
The notebook followed the two returning reporters back to DC, where it was left on the Brotherhood's archives. After a day of searching near the last camp of Father Morin and his party, the rescue team found no body, and finally headed southwest, where there was still a trace of progress.
The guide of the rescue team seemed to have discovered something, and asked the two members of the team who were a little uncomfortable to come back early to report the news, and brought back two notebooks and two phrases.
Then Lei Chan already knew what happened, and this was the last clue left by the rescue team. After the two team members brought back the news, the rescue team also completely lost contact until the arrival of Lei Chan and Milo.
...
Lei Chan closed the last page of the folder, he didn't understand, he didn't understand! If you translate it according to the meaning of the phrase, it should be a phrase for the night of the dead, but in the end, it became a night walk of a hundred corpses. He didn't believe that no one in the huge Celestial Empire would know the meaning of this phrase, and what happened in the middle that made the news they finally get turned into a hundred corpses walking at night.
He looked at Milo on the side and asked, "Milo, why is there no information about the tomb of King Shu here?" ”
Milo smiled wryly...
...
There are only two shifts today, so I'm too tired
