Chapter 345: Infiltration
Poof-
Chen Rulong spat out a mouthful of water and said breathlessly, "There are no hunting knives down there, the village chief is playing with us, probably trying to use the ghosts below to kill me, but they are too weak to pose a threat to us."
"Let's go, let's go back!"
On the way back, Luo Luo asked worriedly, "Where are so many ghosts in such a remote cold pool?"
"I don't know." Chen Rulong looked jealous, and said with an ugly face: "They all have a fatal wound on their bodies, they were thrown into the cold pool after death, most of them are about forty years old, and some are young."
"The fatal wound is from the back through the body, there are basically no signs of fighting, it should be killed by his own people from behind!"
Luo Luo was startled, "Did the villagers do it themselves?"
Chen Rulong: "Yes. I'm guessing it's most likely the village chief, or ...... The village chief has a gang to commit crimes, which is why I chose a 12-year-old girl, she is so young that she cannot be involved in the gang."
Luo Luo was a little embarrassed, "I initially thought you were a pervert, but I didn't expect it to be a foresight, and I wanted to be crooked."
"Crooked people want crooked things. I suggest you put a flush toilet in your head next time, so that there will be fewer misunderstandings between us."
Luo Luo stomped his feet angrily, "I should have tied the rope to the stone and thrown it into the water, so that you could be the company of those lonely ghosts!"
Far away from their residence, the two found that the lights were on inside.
Luo Luo was startled, and the butterfly knife flew into her hand, "Rulong, did you say that the village chief noticed our traces and had already ambushed people in the house at this time?"
"Or...... There's some kind of ghost in ambush or something."
"I don't know, go through the back door."
Chen Rulong and Luo Luo went around to the door, turned over through the air window, tiptoed from the second floor to the first floor, and found the little girl squatting in front of an oil lamp with her knees hugged, staring ahead.
The two breathed a sigh of relief, and in order not to frighten the girl, they jumped out of the window again and walked in through the main entrance.
The little girl was delighted, and then said worriedly, "Where did you go just now? I went downstairs to the toilet and found your hammock empty." Chinese Net
After the two glanced at each other, Chen Rulong said with a smile: "Just now there was a wild boar running into the house to steal something, we thought that Ming'er's dinner had been settled, so we chased it all the way out, but unfortunately we didn't catch up."
The little girl looked serious, "You have to be careful, there are fierce beasts in the mountains at night, and many people in our village have been attacked and died."
Chen Rulong recalled the dead people, quickly took out a pen and paper from the room, closed his eyes and quickly drew the physical characteristics of several of them according to his own memories.
"Sister, do you recognize these people in my paintings?"
"Yes. Wow, you're doing a great job." The little girl said appreciatively: "The uncles and aunts in the painting, as well as the brothers and sisters, are all people who went out to work a few years ago, probably the outside world is very good, and they have never come back since they left."
Going out to work?
Chen Rulong vaguely remembered that he also told himself that there were many people in the village who went out to work, resulting in fewer and fewer people in the village.
Now it seems that it was not a part-time job at all, but a murder!
The little girl said with some longing, "I want to go out to work in the future. I've heard that there are big cars outside, and airplanes, and light bulbs that you can light without lighting them."
"Everyone who goes out to work will be escorted out by the village chief all the way, and there will be no danger......
Halfway through his words, Chen Rulong was shocked and said, "You mean, these people were sent out by the village chief!?"
"yes." The little girl subconsciously said, "The village chief is very good. In order to prevent danger to those who left the village, he personally escorted them all the way out."
The corners of Chen Rulong's mouth barely squeezed out a smile, "Little sister, you go up and rest, we also have to rest."
"Okay, good night."
As soon as the little girl went upstairs, Chen Rulong immediately said solemnly: "We didn't guess wrong, sure enough, the village chief is playing ghosts!" He killed all the people in the village, those
Maybe he released the ghostly monster too!"
Luo Luomei's eyes shone with a cold light, "I've heard that these sorcerers were very weak before casting spells. Otherwise...... Let's start first, once and for all?"
"It's not a matter of killing him, the problem is that if he has an accomplice, we are in danger."
Chen Rulong hesitated for a long time with a calm face before he said slowly, "The Naxi people all go out early and return late, and the village is empty during the day. Tomorrow morning, we'll go to the village chief's house to investigate, and maybe we can find any new clues."
"Okay, just do as you say."
The two slept in shifts until nine o'clock the next morning, and Chen Rulong and Luo Luo went around the village, and after making sure that there was no one nearby, they lurked all the way to the village chief's residence.
Fortunately, the territory of the Naxi tribe is very large, and everyone's residence is far away, Chen Rulong and Luo Luo covered their faces with white cloths, smeared grass oil on their bodies, and stuck leaves around their necks, successfully integrating with the surrounding environment.
The village chief lives at the entrance of the mountain, and the two-story wooden houses are made of heavy wood, with modern locks on the doors and wooden fences on the windows, which can only be passed by children, and cannot be passed by adults at all.
If it was placed in the past, Chen Rulong could have mastered the energy of Jin Juli and could directly unlock the lock, but now he could only stare at the huge wooden house.
It's not that he can't really get in, but when he entered the investigation, Chen Rulong didn't want to be discovered by the village chief.
Just as Chen Rulong hesitated, Luo Luo gestured at his body and glanced at the air window again, "I seem to be able to get in."
