Chapter 231: Rumors confuse the public
Running around day and night, in the early morning of the fifth day of the mission, the four of them arrived in Sichuan Province, although this is far away from Chengdu, and it is not the Internet era, but the zombie incident has already caused a sensation in the entire Sichuan Province, even in the remote mountainous areas of Sichuan, the villagers are chatting about the Chengdu zombie incident.
On the way to Chengdu, the four of them heard no less than ten versions of the rumors about zombies.
One of the most widely circulated is that the Chengdu archaeological team dug up three ancient corpses of the Qing Dynasty near the Wuhou Temple, and due to a mistake in supervision, the three ancient corpses disappeared overnight. Then, five more zombies appeared, which specialized in biting people's heads, and those who did not bite to death became zombies.
There are also people who say that the zombies came from the Jiulao Cave of Qingcheng Mountain, and the Jiulao Cave is not open to the public as a scenic spot, and the zombies ran out of here, and it is said that there are still people who have found countless dry bones in the Jiulao Cave.
There is also a theory that the zombies came from Qi County, which is building a satellite city, and when digging the foundation, a zombie was dug up, and some people say that it was dug up at the location of Sichuan Normal University. Either way, there is one thing in common, these zombies are dug up.
According to rumors, zombies also disguise themselves as humans, hiding in the crowd, running around in various means of transportation, and sneaking a bite and running away when they see a lone person. It is said that the local city government has also set up an office to deal with such matters, and Chengdu is now full of armed police.
Although the rumors are related to the mission, after all, they are rumors that are spread falsely, and what the truth is has to be seen to know with your own eyes.
Near noon, the four people arrived in Chengdu, what the four of them saw was completely inconsistent with the rumors, the pedestrians coming and going on the street, there was no trace of panic, and there was no armed police force, occasionally a few policemen could be seen, or normal patrol traffic police.
In 1995, Chengdu covered an area of more than 10,000 square kilometers and had a population of more than 10 million. In just five days, they could not travel to every corner of Chengdu.
After some inquiry, the four of them heard two new rumors, one is that there are zombies near the Jiuyan Bridge, and the troops have blocked it, and the other is that there is a Longquanyi in the east of Chengdu, and there is a big wolf dog in a family surnamed Lin in Ping'an Township, Longquanyi, and the wolf dog of the Lin family has rabies and bites the pig to death. The male owner of the Lin family brought the pig that the dog had bitten to death and gave it to the whole family to eat. That night, the whole family of the Lin family suddenly became ill, their whole body was hot and their skin was red, like crazy, they bit people when they saw them, and two children and an elderly man were bitten.
The next day, the relatives and neighbors of the Lin family took them to Chengdu to see a doctor, passing through a section of Hejiang Pavilion, and the Lin family fell ill again. At first, the bitten person did not know that it was contagious, and some of the infected people died, and some continued to bite as soon as they became ill. It is said that Longquanyi found several corpses that were bitten to death, which was rumored to be zombies sucking blood, and Hejiangting was also rumored to be a zombie in Nanhe, Chengdu, which was not only in the newspaper, but also on the local TV station.
The four of them came to the Jiuyan Bridge, the bridgehead came and went with the coolies carrying woven bags, lingering on the side of the street waiting for the employer, on the Jiuyan Bridge, sure enough, there were troops blocking the bridge, Wang Sheng and the four of them circled around the bridge, and did not find anything.
Wang Sheng walked in front of a middle-aged man, took out a cigarette and handed it over, and the middle-aged man showed a flattering smile on his face: "Boss, looking for a job?"
Wang Sheng smiled: "Don't look for it, we are here to travel, what's wrong with this bridge, why don't you let it cross?"
The middle-aged man looked around and said softly, "You don't know, there was a murder on the bridge, and it is said that many people died." ”
Wang Shenghu asked suspiciously: "The police should be responsible for the murder, how can they send troops?"
The middle-aged man shook his head: "Who knows, there were no troops two days ago." ”
Wang Sheng took out a hundred-yuan bill very generously and handed it to the middle-aged man: "Thank you, take it to buy cigarettes and smoke." ”
The middle-aged man's face bloomed with joy, and he nodded again and again, and kept saying thank you. Wang Sheng had a smug smile on his face, looking high.
Leng Ai glared at Wang Sheng: "Look at your virtue, let's go, go to Longquanyi to have a look." ”
When I came to Longquanyi, everything was as usual here, people came and went, and there was no troop vigilance. This Longquanyi, there is only one rumor of zombies, that is, the family surnamed Lin has rabies, the four of them inquired several times, and really inquired about the address of the surname Lin's house, and came to the front of the Lin family's house, there is a rusty lock in front of the door, and the house is empty, according to the nearby villagers, the Lin family went crazy on the way to see a doctor, and bit several people to death, and the family has never returned.
Wang Sheng said softly: "Let's jump in and have a look." ”
Cheng Hao and the bald head nodded at the same time, and the three of them jumped into the courtyard of the Lin family, carefully pried open the glass, opened the window, and jumped into the house through the window.
The furnishings of the Lin family are very neat, they did not leave in a hurry, the furniture is covered with dust, no one should have been here for a long time, Wang Sheng opened the wardrobe, the clothes inside were neatly stacked, and no one had moved.
The bald head touched his shiny head and asked, "What are we doing here?"
Wang Sheng said: "What else can you do, find clues." ”
"That's looking for it!"
Cheng Hao took out a book from the mezzanine of the cupboard, the book had no name, only a "mother" symbol that rotated fifty degrees.
Cheng Hao pecked his teeth and said, "Didn't Wanshan say that the consistent Dao has perished?"
Wang Sheng frowned, and gently opened the book, the content inside was pure nonsense, with some unsightly pictures.
The bald head scolded in a low voice: "The person who reads this book is purely insane. ”
Wang Sheng smiled helplessly: "If people don't have faith, it's easy to be infiltrated by bad things. The Lin family is self-defeating, no wonder others. ”
Cheng Hao said: "What should I do with this book?"
Wang Sheng took out the dotting machine and lit the book, he could only treat the gossip like this.
After returning to Chengdu, the four of them returned to Jiuyan Bridge, and a middle-aged migrant worker walked up to the four of them and asked, "Several bosses, looking for a job!"
Cheng Hao was in an extremely bad mood because of what he had always said, and he replied impatiently: "Don't look for it!"
Perhaps this is not the first time that the indifference has happened, and the migrant worker turned his head expressionlessly to leave, when Wang Sheng suddenly shouted: "Master, wait!"
"What's the matter?"
Wang Sheng smiled and said, "Let's chat!"
"Talking?"
Wang Sheng pointed to the troops on the bridge and asked in a low voice, "What's going on over there? Why are all the troops dispatched?"
The migrant worker seemed to be very interested in this topic, and asked with an excited expression on his face, "Where did you come from, you don't know this?"
"We're here for a tour, and we've just arrived here, and we've heard that there's a dead person over there, do you know what's going on?"
A wicked smile appeared on the migrant worker's face, and he said, "Of course I know, but you don't know, don't talk nonsense now, or you will be arrested......!"
Cheng Hao snorted coldly: "You love to talk about it or not, don't talk about it, get out, Lao Tzu doesn't have time to talk nonsense with you!"
The migrant worker laughed a few times and said softly: "I have seen what happened there with my own eyes, if you don't want to, then it's okay!"
Wang Sheng hurriedly called him back, took out three hundred yuan, and shook it in front of the migrant workers: "If you tell us everything you see, the three hundred yuan is yours!"
The migrant worker's eyes were fixed on the three hundred-yuan bills, and he even didn't believe his ears: "As long as I say, do you really give me these three hundred yuan?"
Wang Sheng said very sincerely: "If you don't believe it, that's good, you take one hundred first, and I'll give you two hundred after speaking!"
The migrant worker tentatively went to pick up the banknote in Wang Sheng's hand, and when he got the money in his hand, he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and he couldn't close his mouth with joy. Wang Sheng secretly laughed in his heart: At first glance, he looks like a poor and sour person, only 300 yuan, but as for this, Wang Sheng did not know that in 1995, the average monthly wage of workers was 460 yuan, not to mention what 300 yuan meant to migrant workers.
After getting the money, the migrant workers, eager to spit out all the words in the stomach, the river under the Jiuyan Bridge is the Jinjiang River, also known as the Funan River, the locals call him the rotten river, also known as the world's largest stinky ditch, three years ago, Chengdu began to remediate, although much better than before, but can still smell the smell.
Jiuyan Bridge, the ancient name Hongji Bridge, also known as Zhenjiang Bridge, was built in 1953, Jiuyan Bridge often has people jumping into the river, the water under the Jiuyan Bridge is not deep, the water flow is not urgent, but the people who fell into the water were drowned. In 1992, the Nine Eyes Bridge was demolished to hinder the flooding, and there was a new bridge on the west side of the abandoned wharf, also known as the Nine Eyes Bridge.
After the new bridge was repaired, it was really peaceful for a while, but in the past half month, many people have fallen into the river from here, and it is rumored among the people that those who fell were not drowned. After the body was recovered, there were signs of severe burns, and the deceased had been burned to death before falling into the river. The people said that there were zombies in Funanhe, and the TV station came out to refute the rumors, but no one believed it. Fearing the same thing happening, the government blocked the bridge.
Wang Sheng asked, "Then do you know who fell into the river?"
The migrant worker shook his head and said, "Where do I know, I must not talk nonsense about this matter again, otherwise I will be arrested!"
The bald head touched the oil and smiled brightly: "Then do you know what the hell is going on?"
The migrant workers told a lot of rumors that they had already heard, and there were no more valuable clues. Wang Sheng generously gave the migrant worker 200 yuan, and the migrant worker took the money and left happily.
The four of them decided to stay at the Nine Eyes Bridge to find out, so they found a hotel near the Nine Eyes Bridge and stayed there. Standing in front of the window of the hotel, you can just see the Nine Eyes Bridge, although it is far away, but they can clearly observe everything that happens at the Nine Eyes Bridge with their sunglasses with telescopic functions.
Wang Sheng looked intently at the bridge, there was a military vehicle parked on the bridge, there were about two squads of soldiers, nothing else, and after looking at it for a long time, he didn't see anything abnormal.
Cheng Hao was suspicious: "Aren't there six types of zombies, are these zombies junior zombies and can only appear at night?"
