The whole village is now full of people brought by Luo Jianfen, there are more than 50 people, all of whom are in plain clothes, but judging from the signs of their activities here, they have not been here for a day or two, and they may have come here since we left here.

"Sister Qian, you didn't want to say it when I asked you before, can you tell me the truth of the matter now? Why did the people from the 735 Institute come here too? ”

"What do you want to know?" Xu Qian glanced at me and smiled lightly, "Or, what did you guess now?" ”

But I didn't answer directly, because I thought of a series of anomalies before Xu Qian entered the ghost cave, and now 735 suddenly appeared here, as if all the questions were solved at once.

It didn't take long for Luo Jianfen to walk in from outside, although her appearance was unexpected, but I had a faint feeling that it was not accidental.

Luo Jianfen paused before saying, "Classmate Lin Kun, are you surprised to see me?" ”

"What do I mean by that? A bit of a surprise, but not a surprise either. I said, "There have been a lot of secrets haunting me here, and I guess your presence has something to do with them, right?" ”

Luo Jianfen looked at me, frowned, and said, "This matter was instructed by Professor Ye to hide it from you. ”

"Professor Ye? Why? ”

Luo Jianfen said slowly: "This matter is a long story, in fact, the reason why we are here is because our 735 Institute has reached an agreement with your Yuling to cooperate secretly. Xu Qian has known this for a long time. ”

I stood there, and Luo Jianfen continued: "Lin Kun, some things are not as simple as you think, but they are not as complicated as you think. ”

Luo Jianfen handed over a thing, I took it and looked at it, it was a photo, "This is?" ”

It was a very ordinary photo, and if you look closely, it seems to be the site of an archaeological excavation, and a piece of jade pendant was excavated in the soil.

"What is this?" I can't understand, "What's wrong with this jade pendant?" ”

"You're looking at this picture."

Immediately, Luo Jianfen handed me another photo, which was much more bizarre, with a person lying on the hospital bed, his whole body ulcerated, and he died a terrible death.

"What's going on?"

"I can't tell you the details, but I can tell you how it happened, and you'll understand what happened." Luo Jianfen said: "Here's the thing, a few months ago, we at the 735 Institute received a special report that a group of villagers in Gukou Township, on the edge of the Nacao River Valley, besieged the town clinic. ”

This was originally a relatively common group dispute, and it didn't matter to Ye Heping's head anyway, but when these words came out of Luo Jianfen's mouth, they had some meaning. I listened patiently to the fact that the villagers who had made trouble had beaten and detained the medical staff, and that the wicked had sued the town police station and reported to the town police station that the doctor was a quack doctor who had no regard for human life, and that the matter was getting bigger and bigger, and later the city's public security bureau had to send people to investigate on the spot to resolve the dispute.

When the police arrived, they interrogated the medical staff at the clinic and learned about what had happened. It turned out that there was a Tibetan named Giza in this town, and the old man in the family was seriously ill and bedridden for a long time, and it was said that he had cancer, and the old man's chin grew a tumor weighing more than two catties; Half a month ago, when the old man of Giza was dying, his son carried him to the health center, but in the middle of the night, the old man died.

After the burial, after another seven days, some villagers came back from the county town to pass by the cemetery, vaguely heard someone crying in the cemetery, the villagers searched for the sound and found that the sound came from under the grave. The panicked villagers had the courage to dig up the tomb, and it was unbelievable that the old man of Giza was still alive. This angered several of Giza's sons, and dozens of relatives and friends were gathered to besiege the health center, scolding quacks along the way.

I was also puzzled when I heard this, just imagine that a person who was pronounced dead had been in the mourning hall for seven days and buried in the cemetery for a few days, and he was not dead, and no one could believe it.

It is said that when the police arrived at Giza's house, they saw the old man Giza sitting stiffly at the table, his face pale, his eyes glazed and his eyes empty. And his daughter-in-law brought a bowl of butter tea to the old man, and he held the teacup stiffly but couldn't hold it.

What's even more surprising is that the tumor on his chin is gone, and his wife is still thanking God for having eyes. At this time, the old man of Giza said "hehe" a few times, stuck his tongue out into the teacup like a livestock drinking water, and swallowed mechanically, without the slightest movement in the Adam's apple, and could not swallow anything at all.

"Teacher Luo, do you mean that the person in this photo is Giza?"

Luo Jianfen shook his head and said: "That's not the case, the person in this photo is a person with the same symptoms as Giza, the reason why I show you two photos is because there is a connection between them, this deceased is from the same area as Giza, this person was originally working in other places, but he suddenly returned home a few months ago, and then he fell seriously ill, and after being sent to the hospital, he was declared dead." ”

"And he's resurrected?"

Luo Jianfen shook his head and said, "He is indeed dead, but something even more strange happened in that deserted river valley village, and one after another young and middle-aged people either disappeared strangely, or became seriously ill and could not afford to be ill. ”

"What does this mean?"

"What if I told you that this village was the place where the deceased worked?"

I was silent, and my attention was all focused on the carcasse, whose face was badly burned with sulfuric acid, and his eyes were bloodshot and black. Luo Jianfen's words told me that things are not so simple, something must have happened in that place called the Nacuo River Valley, and the cause of this incident may have something to do with this village.

"Do you suspect that this matter has anything to do with this jade pendant?"

"There is no need to doubt that." Xu Qian nodded and said, "Teacher Luo persuaded Sister Qi precisely because of the photo of this jade pendant, and agreed to cooperate, the pattern on this jade pendant is very mysterious, it should be a totem of ancient Tibetan Buddhism, representing some kind of evil magic." ”

"Yes, what happened in the valley of the Nacuo River caught our attention, we followed the clues to find this village, and accidentally found the legend of the ghost cave in the local area, after a period of investigation, the mayor surnamed Lin aroused our suspicions, after investigation, it was this person who secretly instructed people to dig tunnels, and the tunnel you found was dug by him, and the sealing place was also blocked by him."

"With that, it's all right!" All of a sudden, all my doubts were connected at once, and the ins and outs of the matter were probably clear.

The old mayor dug a hole into the ghost cave for some ulterior purpose, and dug up a mysterious jade pendant, and this jade pendant may have some mysterious power, causing the villagers to be infected with the disease, and after returning to the village, it was transmitted to others, causing disappearances and deaths, and this disease may not kill people, and some people have come back to life, such as Daddy Giza.

I frowned: "The corpse was severely disfigured, and the murderer's intention must have been to destroy the deceased's physical signs so that we could not identify the corpse." ”

"I want to cover it up." Xu Qian said, "The murderer wanted to destroy the signs of the corpse, but he also ignored one point. ”

"Which point?"

Xu Qian paused and said: "I suspect that the murderer's purpose was not to kill people, they didn't know that things would develop in this direction at first, but something happened to Daddy Giza's halfway, maybe it was because of Giza's death and resurrection, so that a series of people are always there." ”

"You mean, they're doing human experiments?" My eyes widened, and I felt incredulous.

"I'm afraid it is." Luo Jianfen said, "Their original purpose may have been for the ghost cave, but the matter of Giza was a turning point, and our arrival made it impossible for them to stop fighting, and finally covered it up hastily and disappeared." ”

At this time, Luo Jianfen received a phone call, saying that there was a murder case in a funeral home on the outskirts of the city last night, and all three staff members on duty were killed, and what was confusing was that the four bodies in the funeral home were stolen.

"Corpse robbery?" I was surprised, but at this juncture, two things naturally came to my mind: "Could it be that someone wants to use corpses for human experiments?" ”

After Luo Jianfen hung up the phone, he led the team to cordon off the funeral home and investigate the scene, not allowing anyone to enter.

The funeral home in the dark night is dead silent, after all, this is the last stop of life, after this place, you will walk to Huangquan Road, never looking back. The area around the funeral home is also very deserted, Tibet is still relatively superstitious, people are very taboo to build houses around the funeral home or cemetery, so there are only a handful of households around the funeral home, and those who live in this area are all funeral shops.

The wind was fierce that night, and the door of the funeral parlor swayed and creaked, like the snarky groan of sand coming from the shriveled throat of a dead man. The crematorium's crematorium chimney towered over the dark night sky, and from time to time a few crows could be heard chirping.

"Blackbird, how's it going?" Luo Jianfen said to a man in a police uniform, "Can you be sure who did it?" ”

"It is not certain that the three bodies were in different rooms and should have been killed one by one. The wounds on the deceased's body were wide and deep, and they were cut straight to the lungs, which were caused by heavy knives. ”

I looked down at the wounds of the corpse, and what made me strange was that the deceased had been slashed head-on, and there was no trace of a struggle at the scene, which would definitely be considered an acquaintance in the criminal investigation, at least this is very likely, but in my opinion, there is a faint feeling.

"It's not like a normal homicide scene." A puzzle haunted me, "Why did the murderer steal the body?" ”
