Chapter 628, The Imprisoned Ghost
09040303030303 Director Sun still has doubts about me, maybe he doubts the curse, or maybe he doubts my identity as an onmyoji.
But his skepticism didn't stop me from getting what I wanted. After hesitating for a long time, he finally gave me a phone number, and he said, "If you call this number, you will say that Sun Shengke asked you to come, and you want to go to Snake Head Valley to see a doctor for the people in the village." He can take you into the mountains, and you can listen to him after that. "
I took the note with the phone number written on it, thanked me, and turned to leave.
As soon as he arrived at the door, Director Sun hurriedly got up again and said, "By the way, there is another matter, after you enter the village, you will help find a doctor named Cao Yuan." The last time he went with me to the village. Normally, people who have just entered the village will not get sick immediately, so if he is okay, please come out and sue the person who took you into the mountain. Let him give me a message. "
"Don't worry, I'll help you with this." I nodded in agreement.
After leaving the hospital. I immediately pressed the number and the phone was answered by a foul-mouthed man. I mentioned Sun Shengke's name, and the man happily agreed, and agreed to meet at the door of the department store in the south of the county.
I hurried back to the hotel and checked out, then cycled to the building, where I met my guide shortly there.
The guide is in his 40s, with a strong build, and looks reliable. He looked at my leather jacket and jeans, looked at my bicycle, then shook his head and said, "You can't do this leather jacket, it's cold in the mountains, you have to wear a padded jacket." There are also bicycles, there are no roads in the mountains, and you can't ride into them. "
"I'm wearing an outdoor mountaineering suit, and I'm wearing it on the way here, look at it." I said as I took off my backpack and showed him the warm clothes I was wearing.
The guide glanced at it, reached out and pinched it on his clothes, then nodded and said, "Well, this kind of thing is fine." Then if you are afraid of losing the car, you can put it at my house, I am an acquaintance with Dr. Sun, you can rest assured. The guide said very loudly, and then led me to the edge of the county.
I thought his family was in the county, but it turned out to be not.
There are a lot of farmhouses in the mountains around Daoqing County, and many southerners travel here in winter, live in the courtyard to see the snow scene, relax or something, my main job as a guide is to take these people into the mountains, and his home is also in one of the farmhouses. Private daughter's name.
Speaking of the Snake Head Valley, the guide also gave me a solid idea, and he told me that he would only take me to the valley mouth at most, and I had to go the rest of the way by myself, because everyone who lives in the mountains knows that the place in the Snake Head Valley is evil, and those who enter it cannot get out. Over the years, the doctor who has to go into the valley to see a doctor, but basically he goes and returns on the same day, and no one stays in it overnight.
The guide's home is in the northwest outside the prefecture, and he has a car, not a car, but a horse-drawn carriage, which he says is prepared for tourists to experience rural life. It just so happened that I didn't want to ride in a car and wander around in a horse-drawn carriage while enjoying the winter countryside.
The carriage had been jolting for more than an hour, and at last I saw a few small courtyards of bungalows on the edge of a birch forest, which was the guide's home. I took a brief break at his house, left my bike at his house, and then we set off again.
This time we traveled lightly, and the carriage went faster, and before the sun went down, the guide led me to a valley between two mountains.
"Walk in from here, walk for 20 minutes and you can see the smoke coming from the village, there is no road behind, you just walk in the direction of the smoke, you will definitely not get lost. I'm just waiting for you to come out. The guide said to me.
I nodded and thanked him, then turned to look at the valley and took a deep breath.
The air was cold, but it allowed me to be extra sober.
It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided! I reassured myself in my heart, and then I walked firmly into the valley.
There was a little snow in the valley, but it was fine enough not to interfere with my progress, and it didn't take me 20 minutes to cross the valley, and across a forest, I saw the smoke coming from the chimney in the distance, as the guide said.
There was really no ready-made road in the woods, and the snow was thicker, so I walked for another ten minutes with great difficulty, and the path at the entrance of the village finally appeared in front of me. The scale of the village is not large, and it is estimated that there are only about 30 rooms at full capacity. The village was unusually quiet, no human voices could be heard at all, and the clucking of several chickens at the entrance of the village became extremely clear.
"Fifth brother! Are you in the village? I'm Chang Le! I stood at the entrance of the village and shouted at the loudest voice.
Soon, the doors of the rooms near the village opened, and haggard faces peeked out of the doorways, looking at me with grim eyes.
The nearest woman to me was a middle-aged woman who came out of the house next to the entrance of the village, and I walked over to her and asked again, "Sister, ask if there is a tall and strong person in the village named Wei Wu." "
The woman didn't answer me, but waved at me and said, "Go away, there's no one you're looking for, hurry up." "
"You don't have to worry about my business, I'm just helping our village solve troubles, just tell me if there is anyone I want to find in my village." I say.
"Nope! No! Let's go! The woman frowned and waved her hands, and when she saw that I was not moving, she simply came and pushed me, and pushed me out of the village.
She is a middle-aged woman, and I can't compete with her, so I can only push me out by her, and I continue to shout Wei Wu's name on my side, but I never see Wei Wu come out to answer.
Suddenly, I remembered what Sun Shengke had entrusted me to do, so I hurriedly changed my words and shouted, "Cao Yuan! Is Cao Yuan in the village? Director Sun asked me to come over and see how you are doing! "
My shout seemed to have an effect, and the woman who pushed me immediately stopped, then looked at me in surprise and asked, "Do you know Dr. Cao?" "
"Yes, yes, it was Dr. Sun who asked me to come over and help the people in the village to see the sick." I hurriedly said with a smile.
"Then you don't say it sooner, come in." The middle-aged woman's attitude immediately turned 180 degrees, and not only did she not push me, but she also brought me into the village.
As I walked into the village, people from the huts on both sides of the village came out one after another and looked at me with strange eyes. There was not the slightest expression on the faces of these people, and they were emaciated and emaciated, feeling like some living corpses, and it made me feel uncomfortable all over my body to look at.
After walking for a while, the woman led me to a neat hut in the village. She went over and knocked on the door and shouted, "Doctor Cao, someone is looking for you." "
There was a crackling sound in the room immediately, and after a while, an unkempt man in a white coat opened the door and came out, it is estimated that he should be Cao Yuan.
Cao Yuan stared at me up and down several times, and then frowned and asked strangely, "Who are you?" "
"It was Director Sun who asked me to come over and see how you are doing." I replied.
As soon as he heard Director Sun, Cao Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, "You wait, I'll take something right away!" "
With that, he turned his head back into the room, and in a short time he took out four test tubes with different labels, and a report rack with a pile of paper with dense writing on it.
"You bring this back to Director Sun, this may cure the illness of the people in the village, please." Cao Yuan said to me solemnly.
I took something and nodded at him, then turned and walked towards the entrance of the village. Cao Yuan was wearing only a big white coat, but he still chose to send me out of the village all the way, and followed me all the way to the edge of the woods, but he didn't leave until now.
I'll be back later, so I didn't ask much and walked straight through the valley back outside.
"Pretty fast, you're done?" When the guide saw me come out, he turned the horse's head as he spoke.
I walked over and handed him the test tube and the report rack, "Please send this thing to Director Sun, it's best to find something to wrap up, don't freeze it." I admonished.
"Huh?" The guide was stunned, "Why don't you go back together?" "
"No, I'm going back to the village to find someone." I replied.
"You should know that something is wrong with this village, if you spend the night here, then don't think about coming out again, you also saw the doctor inside! He just didn't listen to persuasion and insisted on staying, but he really stayed and couldn't come out again. "
"It's just that I can't get out, and I didn't lose my life, it's okay, I'm actually here for this, thank you for your concern." I laughed.
The guide sighed helplessly and shook his head, "That's it, it's still this time in two days, I'll wait for you here, and if you can't leave the village, I'll contact your family." "
The guide's words also reminded me of the phone call Wei Wu had made to his home, but the details were different. I took out my phone and looked at it, and there was still a signal when I was at the guide's house, but when I got to the mouth of the valley, there was no signal at all.
"Do you know Wei Wu? A man about the same size as you, in his 30s. I put away my phone and asked.
Sure enough, the guide shook his head, it was obvious that Wei Wu didn't come to the Snake Head Valley through him.
I thanked the guide again, and when he was gone, I turned back to the valley road, and through the woods, back to the strange little village in the valley of the snakehead. It had been less than an hour since I returned, but the village was dead and silent, and the winter sun just didn't seem bright enough, and though it hadn't yet set, the village was already covered in darkness.
This time, I didn't shout loudly, I went directly into the village and came to Cao Yuan's residence inside, and then knocked on the door a few times.
It's the same process again, and Dr. Cao came out unkempt again. He was visibly taken aback when he saw me, but I didn't give him a chance to ask a question, I pushed him into the room, and I followed him into the room.
"Why are you back again? You don't know."
"I know! You don't have to say that! I interrupted him, "I'm looking for someone named Wei Wu, he came to this village about half a month ago, I know that he must still be hiding here now, I want to see him, see him now." "
