"How many times have you seen it in your yard?" I looked at Lao Xu suspiciously.

"Well, yes!" Lao Xu nodded very seriously.

"What does it look like?" Zhao Xiaotian asked.

"I can only see that it is a man, wearing black clothes, and I can't see what it looks like!" Lao Xu said very seriously. It doesn't look like a lie to him, but it's clearly illogical.

If he hadn't said so. I thought it was a little scary, but I heard him say that. I feel a lot more at ease. I think someone must be secretly playing tricks in Xu Feng's matter.

Zhao Xiaotian and I seemed to think the same, but I saw him smile at me: "Go down and have a look?" ”

"Well, let's go, let's take a look!" I said.

"Is there a light down there?" I asked.

"No, you better not go, it's really not clean down there." Lao Xu said again.

"There was something unclean. ...... Do you have a flashlight at home, go and help us find two flashlights! Zhao Xiaotian said.

"Nope!" Lao Xu shook his head worriedly.

The city is not as bright as the countryside, there are lights everywhere 24 hours a day, and even if the power goes out, it only stops occasionally during the day, and there is no need for a flashlight at home, so few people in the city have flashlights at home.

At this time, Zhao Xiaotian and I heard Lao Xu say that, and we were a lot bolder, so we didn't plan to ask for a flashlight, so we all took out our mobile phones from our pockets and turned on the flashlight function.

Then together we reached out and lifted the round cover. When the cover was lifted, I saw a wooden ladder leading to the ground. It's pitch black below, because the flashlight function of the mobile phone is all light illuminated by the mobile phone flash. The light emitted is more scattered and not as concentrated as a flashlight. So it doesn't shine far.

"Xiaolin, go down first and take a look, brother gives you your palace, if there is any special situation, you call it, brother is on call!" Zhao Xiaotian said shamelessly.

I wouldn't have dared to go down first, but now I'm much bolder. In addition, judging from what Lao Xu said just now, it is obvious that someone is playing tricks on Xu Feng. Xu Feng said that he did it with a man in a dream. I suspect that she is delusional due to a long period of rape. In her opinion, she was pressed by a ghost, but if there was such a thing, how could it seem that she was pregnant with a child for no reason, which was obviously impossible.

Even if there are ghosts in this world, ghosts are just a kind of thing that cannot be seen or touched, how can it still make people pregnant.

So I took my phone and slowly went down to the wooden ladder.

As I went down the ladder, I saw that there were some yellow runes all over the ladder, almost all of which were identical, except that the runes occasionally had different thicknesses. It's like a person writing words, even if it's the same word, sometimes the writing is not exactly the same, it's the same reason. So I don't think there's anything strange about it.

But through the runes, I can see that they are all written by hand. It's a little different from the kind of rune paper that can be bought out there and is completely flexographic.

The wooden ladder was not very high, and I quickly descended to the bottom.

I took a flashlight and shone it around, and found that the tunnel was reinforced with cement all around, and it was very dry, and I couldn't feel any moisture. The tunnels are plastered all around with that yellow rune paper. It adds a bit of a strange feeling to this tunnel.

"What's the situation?" Zhao Xiaotian asked above.

"It's nothing, it's rune paper everywhere. Brother Zhao, come down, this tunnel seems to be quite deep, let's go inside and have a look. "The light of the mobile phone is not very strong, and a person is still a little lacking in confidence in this dark environment.

Fortunately, Zhao Xiaotian didn't say a word this time, and immediately went down the stairs.

After he came down, he also took a few photos of his mobile phone around: "Damn, why don't you post so many runes?" ”

"Who knows!" As soon as I said that, I raised my flashlight and walked towards the tunnel in front of me. Zhao Xiaotian followed me, holding his mobile phone for a while, up and down, left and right.

Along the way, the entire tunnel is still the same as the entrance, and there are some runes pasted everywhere.

The tunnel is actually not very long, and after walking less than one or twenty meters, we came to a relatively large room.

The room was a mess, and it was the same as before, with a lot of rune paper on the walls and roof, and household garbage everywhere on the floor. Some lunch boxes, mineral water bottles, melon seeds, peanut shells and so on were thrown everywhere.

The room was simple inside, with only a dirty bed. There was a mess of women's clothes on the bed.

Aside from the rune paper, none of this seemed to be anything out of the ordinary. We searched the room for a while, but we didn't find anything of value other than a stack of unused rune paper under the pillow.

I took a stack of rune paper and put it in my pocket, and Zhao Xiaotian and I turned around and walked towards the road where I came.

When I went, I was in front, but when I came back, I was behind. Just as we had not gone far after we turned around and walked back, I suddenly heard a faint baby cry behind me: "Wow, wow, wow, wow......"

As soon as I heard the sound, I only felt a tingling in my scalp. I hurriedly grabbed Zhao Xiaotian: "Brother Zhao, did you hear any sound?" ”

"I didn't hear any sound!" Zhao Xiaotian said blankly.

"I seem to hear a little bit of a baby crying." I said.

", brother, don't scare me, we've all seen that place just now, how can there be any baby's crying, didn't you hear the wrong direction, could it be from outside?" Zhao Xiaotian looked at me suspiciously: "Listen carefully, where did it come from?" ”

"Hmm!" I nodded, and pricked up my ears for a while, but there was no sound at all.

"Why can't you hear it again?" I said.

"It's said that you heard it wrong, let's go, don't be suspicious, if you don't get nervous a few more times, I'm going to be nervous." Zhao Xiaotian said angrily, turned around and continued to walk outside.

Soon we were up the stairs. Since the staircase was a wooden staircase, it looked like it had been many years, and I was worried that two people would not be able to bear it if they went up together. I waited for Zhao Xiaotian to go up to the ground first, and then climbed up the stairs.

But just as I was looking up and climbing up, I suddenly saw Zhao Xiaotian squatting at the top of the stairs staring straight behind me, and when I was about to turn around and see what was behind me, Zhao Xiaotian suddenly shouted "ghost", and then turned around and ran.

"Ah......h

When I climbed to the ground, I saw Zhao Xiaotian standing at the door holding his stomach and pointing at me laughing: "Haha, laugh at me......"

Nima, it turns out that this animal is playing tricks on me.

"Big brother, you're dozens of years old, can you divide the occasion when you play, it will scare people to death!" I didn't feel angry. I was really scared by him just now.

"This is my brother's good intentions, I want to practice your courage, don't be ignorant." Zhao Xiaotian said disdainfully.

"Alright, let's go back quickly, it's not too early." I said a word and walked outside.

When we came out, Lao Xu was gone, and when we walked out of the room, we saw Lao Xu running towards the door.

asked him what he was running, only to know that he was just frightened by Zhao Xiaotian's "ghost".

As soon as he saw us, he asked, "Did you see a ghost just now?" ”

We didn't pay attention to Lao Xu's words, but just told him that we wanted to take Xu Feng back to assist in the investigation. Lao Xu nodded again and again: "It's okay to take it away, it's good to take it away......

It is estimated that over the years, Lao Xu has been scared by Xu Feng.

Since Xu Feng was injured, we sent her to the hospital and put her in the same room with Ah Pu to watch.

This night, Zhao Xiaotian and I took turns guarding the hospital, and Zhang Yihan and Chen Ye went back to accompany my mother.

Early the next morning, I took Chen Ye and started to visit some famous temples around the city. I asked a few monks in the temple, and they all said that this kind of rune paper should be a Taoist thing, and they didn't know it.

I knew that I had tossed for a long time, and it turned out to be a big oolong. Where do monks use what rune paper, I should be looking for Taoist temples, not temples.

However, when I asked, there was not a single Taoist temple in the city. tossed for most of the day, which is equivalent to tossing in vain. I haven't found anyone who knows the yellow rune paper.

But on my way home, I suddenly had an idea and took a photo of the rune paper and sent it to Zhao Mingzhu. Then I called Zhao Mingzhu and asked him to help me find a Taoist priest in the countryside and ask what this kind of rune paper is for. Many dead people in our rural areas are Taoist priests, although these Taoist priests may only be half-hung water, but they are indeed people in the Taoist lineage, and it is estimated that they should be able to see a little bit of origin.

Zhao Mingzhu asked me why I asked this, I told him about Xu Feng, and after listening to it, he asked me: "Do you have some suspicions that the murderer of baby casserole porridge may be related to the fake Taoist priest?" ”

"Well, that's what I thought." I replied truthfully.

"Okay, I'll help you ask Ge Lao." Zhao Mingzhu said.

"Ask Ge Lao?" I exclaimed.
