Chapter 69: Ghost Town
Xudu, the most mysterious city in the land of China, is also called Fengdu. But one of its most well-known names is a ghost town.
Walking on the road that has experienced thousands of years of wind and rain, you can only feel the thick taste of history.
Yes, the smell of history, thick and strong, you can't tell what it is, smell carefully, activate the cells of your whole body to feel, you can feel, it is thousands of years of history precipitation, as if it is, thick, bloody.
This is, Xudu.
Although Luo Haotian had been famous for a long time before, this was the first time he had come to Xudu.
He frowned, and the atmosphere around him made him feel extremely uncomfortable. That eerie feeling, but he was a little creepy.
"It's cold in this place. Long Piaopiao actually gave Yu Du an evaluation.
Luo Haotian looked up at the sky, and was stunned, but he didn't expect that there was a faint layer of black gas in the sky.
He pointed to the layer of black gas in the sky and asked, "Hey, Piao Piao, what is that layer of black gas in the sky?"
Long Piaopiao looked up at his finger for a few seconds, but suddenly turned his head suspiciously: "Isn't the sky very blue? ”
Luo Haotian was dumbfounded, it seems that this black gas cannot be seen by ordinary people.
This is known as a ghost town, and the black gas that fills the sky can't be the legendary ghost gas, right?
Luo Haotian was amazed in his heart, but he didn't explain anymore, anyway, Long Piaopiao couldn't see it, and it was very troublesome to explain. Moreover, for the time being, he could only feel that those ghost qi were just shrouded in the sky above Xudu, and they did not invade down.
Although he was puzzled in his heart, if he rushed forward rashly now, he would not be able to find out why. At that moment, he asked Long Piaopiao, "Do you know where the city hall is?"
Long Piaopiao stared at those big smart eyes, glanced at Luo Haotian, didn't speak, took out a small mobile phone from his pocket, crackled and pressed a few numbers, and it didn't take long for the phone to go through.
"We were on xxx road, coming by car. "Hung up.
Luo Haotian was stunned for a moment, this is called the end of the call? This girl's words are a little less, right?
He was a little speechless and pointed to the mobile phone that Long Piaopiao was still holding in his hand, "Piaopiao, who did you talk to just now?"
"The special phone number of the mayor of the city hall. ”
Luo Haotian wondered, "Then why don't you tell him your identity, can he still be a prophet?"
Long Piaopiao glanced at Luo Haotian, and Luo Haotian read four words directly from Long Piaopiao's eyes: You are a fool.
"The number I just used is a special number for senior cadres of the State Council, and there will be registration records in every city in China. Don't you know that the Dragon Group is directly under the State Council?"
Luo Haotian was a little speechless, he really didn't know that the Dragon Group was directly under the State Council.
Seeing that Luo Haotian didn't speak, Long Piaopiao taught him lightly: "Although you are on a mission for the first time, you must also understand the matters you should pay attention to when performing the task, and these basic knowledge are written in the rules of the Dragon Group." ”
Seeing that Long Piaopiao seemed to be addicted to the lesson, he hurriedly interrupted her, "Piaopiao, let's talk about these next time, the car is already here." ”
As soon as Luo Haotian's words fell, a cool Audi A8 braked and stopped in front of them.
Then, the black, shiny door opened.
From the Audi, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes walked out, looking at the thick eyebrows and big eyes, the bridge of the nose was high, and he walked towards them with his head up, although it was not very obvious, but Luo Haotian could also see that the sorrow in his eyes could not be concealed.
"Hello, my name is Zhong Tie, and I am the current mayor of Yudu. Zhong Tie, the mayor of Xudu, smiled politely and stretched out his hand to Long Piaopiao.
However, I don't know where Long Piaopiao's gaze has gone, anyway, it's not the mayor of the bird.
Seeing Zhong Tie's hand hanging in the air awkwardly, Luo Haotian stretched out his right hand and shook Zhong Tie heavily, and kindly relieved him: "My name is Luo Haotian, and she is Long Piaopiao." Don't mind, that's what she has a surname. ”
"Oh, no, no, it's an honor for us all to come. Zhong Tie smiled professionally, polite, but not humble.
Luo Haotian nodded secretly, it seems that this Zhong Tie is also an assertive person, not one of those [***] officials who have a vegetarian meal, which can be seen from his series of performances.
"What the hell happened to you?" In the thin mission book, it was not clearly stated, but it was said in a very general way that it might be a problem with demons, so Luo Hao Tiancai would be very interested in this mission.
"Well, you two, this is not the place to talk, get in the car first, and I'll take you to my office. After saying that, Zhong Tie opened the car door and motioned for them to get in.
After a boring river ride, they finally arrived at the town hall.
Zhong Tie took Luo Haotian and Long Piaopiao, directly ignored all the levels, and came to the mayor's office.
As soon as Luo Haotian entered, he was very unceremoniously on the sofa, and Long Piaopiao didn't seem to want to speak, so he sat directly next to Luo Haotian coldly.
Luo Haotian waved his hand, "Mayor Zhong, just tell me about what happened recently." "Straight to the point.
Zhong Tie was stunned for a while, probably because he didn't expect Luo Haotian to talk about business as soon as he sat down, but this also happened to his heart, and this matter has been pressing on his heart, making it difficult for him to sleep.
Zhong Tie took a deep breath, his expression was indescribably solemn, and he said word by word: "Yudu, it's haunted!"
Although Luo Haotian had already guessed what was happening in Xudu, after all, the layer of ghost aura that shrouded over Xudu was not covered! After all, when Yue Linglong was still there, he had also seen the ghost descending technique performed by the ghost cultivator, although he didn't know it at the time, but since he had seen it once, Luo Haotian thought that he would not be mistaken.
With such a huge amount of ghost energy, it is impossible for one or two ghosts to exude it! It seems that this drunken capital is worthy of the name of a thousand-year-old ghost town.
Luo Haotian nodded without the slightest wave, and motioned for Zhong Tie to continue. However, it seemed that Long Piaopiao, the girl was very interested, and her eyes were staring at Zhong Tie.
Zhong Tie saw that Luo Haotian was unmoved, and his heart was relieved, thinking that this young man who seemed to be very young was worthy of being a strange person assigned by the top to solve this matter, how could ordinary people be surprised when they heard this kind of unbelievable thing, but they didn't expect Luo Haotian and Long Piaopiao to be so calm.
Zhong Tie paused, and then said: "In the northeast of Xudu, there is a mountain with beautiful mountains and rivers, and since I don't know which era, that mountain has been called Pingdu Mountain. A few years ago, in order to vigorously develop the economy, I also made a policy to develop Pingdu Mountain into a tourist area, and in recent years, it has been peaceful. ”
Speaking of this, Zhong Tie's expression changed, and he suddenly looked frightened, as if he remembered something terrifying: "But just a few days ago, all the tour groups that went to Pingdu Mountain disappeared!"
"How did you disappear?" Luo Haotian asked strangely.
Zhong Tie shook his head, his emotions didn't seem to have calmed down, "I don't know, I sent several groups of investigators up the mountain later, but without exception, all the investigators also disappeared! Only the last group of investigators on the radio, brought us the only news." ”
"What is it?" this sentence was actually asked by Long Piaopiao.
"At that time, there were only two words on the radio - there are ghosts!" Zhong Tie closed his eyes in pain, he inadvertently remembered the mournful shout, perhaps, for a long time to come, this mournful shout would become his nightmare.
After listening to this, Luo Haotian's expression was serious, and he carefully sorted out all the information from the ground: Xudu, thousand-year-old ghost city, northeast, Pingdu Mountain, ghosts.
He suddenly remembered one thing, in the chaos formula, there is such a sentence: the northwest is the gate of heaven, the southeast is the door of the earth, the southwest is the gate of the people, and the northeast is the door of ghosts!
Oh yes, it's a big deal.
