"Uh...... To be honest, when I went to the scene, my early attention was on looking for Dr. Li Qin, and at that time, there was a lot of chaos, and we didn't find the reason why people fainted, so for the sake of safety, we didn't stay at the accident site for too long. ”

"Are you referring to the Stone Jar?"

"Yes. But I've looked at other places as well. If you want to say suspicious, before it happened to take the gossip mirror to Xiao Li, there was nothing suspicious, but after that, I felt suspicious everywhere.

You see, there is a Taoist temple in that place, and I don't know what it is, so many people have problems like evil spirits, disappear inexplicably, and don't see people alive or dead, this is too evil. I've never encountered anything like this in all my years of work, and it's suspicious everywhere.

Alas! I'm sorry, I'm out of shape, I shouldn't have said something like that. ”

"It's fine. In this way, Director Wu, I will put it another way, that is, when you are there, do you see anything that is different from what Captain Li's report says. As you mentioned earlier, the shape of the hand-shaped object on the bronze lid has changed. ”

"Oh...... Something else that is different...... Hiss...... I think about it, there seems to be another place, I don't know if it counts, after all, this kind of is not easy to be sure, because it is possible that they have moved later. ”

"It's okay, you can tell me anything you feel is unusual."

"In addition to the change in the form of the bronze hand I mentioned earlier, the mirror on the bronze stand has been turned upside down.

Actually, I didn't notice the mirror on the bronze stand at first, but when I took the emergency light to shine on the large bronze behind it, it reflected the light, and it was obvious in the darkness, and then I saw that its metal mirror was facing this way.

Lao Li said at the beginning that the mirror was facing outward, facing the stone jar array. ”

"Oh, it's possible that Captain Li turned it over, do you think it's weird?"

"The weird point is not the flip over, it's the mirror...... Too clean. It can be said that it is as clean as new. ”

"It may be that Captain Li has wiped it down, doesn't it mean that the mirror may have been preserved by some special process."

"Not really. Generally, even if an ancient object has been coated with a special coating, it is impossible for it to have no change after hundreds or even thousands of years, how can there be a layer of dust and dirt, not to mention that there is moisture around, which will be somewhat corroded.

In addition, when we excavate artifacts in archaeology, we will determine whether to study them on the spot according to the surrounding environmental conditions, and that place is very special, and some professional tools are not very convenient to carry in, so to check the artifacts is to take a general look, and if you want to study them in detail, you have to carry these things to the institute.

However, any experienced archaeologist will not easily deal with and wipe unnecessary research artifacts in a special environment, because that kind of operation can easily cause irreversible damage, so why the bronze mirror is so smooth is a little strange.

However, it is true that it cannot be ruled out that Lao Li and they may encounter special circumstances and deal with them. This matter will not be investigated clearly for a while and a half, so let's look at it as a suspicious point.

Another one that I think is a little weird, that is, in the small bowl on the bronze shelf, Lao Li said that there is a layer of dry black things in it, but when I checked the bronze mirror, I accidentally saw that the small bowl was some black and yellow sticky and a little thin things, which were illuminated by the light, and some oil was shiny and shiny.

I wondered what it was, and I couldn't figure it out, so I didn't dare to look at it closely, but when the police intervened, I extracted some and tested them. ”

"What about the results of the tests? What is it? ”

"Uh...... It's corpse oil. ”

"Corpse oil?"

"I was also quite surprised, although I don't know what this thing can do, but the police told me that it is indeed corpse oil, and it is the same ingredient extracted from the stone jar."

"Oh...... Well, so are there anything else out of the ordinary? ”

"I can't remember it for a while, it doesn't seem like anything."

"Director Wu, after the accident, the bronze lid on the stone platform was not taken down?"

"No, when I went, the lid was still on it, and I looked at it, and the oxidized part of the lid and the body of the vessel had not been treated, so I guessed that Lao Li had just gone back, and everyone had not started work, and they had no time to explore this bronze, so something happened."

"Well, one last question, did anyone move anything there, especially the bronzes on the stone platform?"

"No, everything is as it is. Because of the police intervention, these things are relatively special, and the people in their physical evidence department do not dare to act rashly, and they have not found any suspicious points that can prove that they are related to the disappearance of those people, and they have not found any toxic substances, so all the items in that place cannot be moved until the investigation is clear. Of course, I can't get anyone else to do it again, I know how weird it is, and I don't want it to happen again. ”

"Good! I know. Then you wait for my news, I need to go there and investigate it myself. ”

"Are you alone?"

"Yes, I'll do it alone."

"Uh...... It's not that I don't believe in your abilities, I just don't think it's dangerous, after all, what we have to face now is beyond our understanding. ”

"You can rest assured that we are specifically dealing with this kind of thing, you don't have to have a psychological burden, I went there to investigate, it is voluntary, even if something goes wrong, it is not your responsibility, not to mention that it will definitely be fine.

It's just that it might take a few days to investigate this, and if it goes well, I'll be able to get those guys back to normal. ”

"Uh...... That couldn't be better, you stay safe. ”

The tape was blank for more than ten seconds here, Qin Ding thought that there was no content, he looked at the display, and the tape was still two minutes long before it came to an end.

He was a little anxious to know the results of the investigation, and just as he immediately pressed the stop button to change the fourth tape, another voice came from the tape recorder.

"24 May 1997

In view of the complexity of the situation, it is necessary to immediately go to the Datongling side for on-the-spot investigation.

Described by Director Wu, the suspicious Taoist temple cultivates evil arts, refines people's souls to obtain the elixir of life, leaves the evil soul in trouble, and leaves innocent disasters.

A slippery shadow appears in the bronze mirror of the underground stone jar, the color cannot be determined, and the level of the murderous spirit is to be determined. A shadow appeared in the gossip mirror, and the color could not be determined, but the symptoms inferred that the murderous spirit was above the third level.

There are eight lost souls and five missing people, and there are many stone jars, there may be high-level murderous spirits, and their names are unknown, it is not easy to determine the hidden location, and priority is given to arrest. ”

"Smack~" The third tape ends.

In the last paragraph, Qin Ding was confused. What exactly is the ghost that appears repeatedly in tapes? It doesn't seem to refer to ordinary souls, but also to levels, and their abilities can be so great that they can make people stupid, sick, and disappear.

Thinking of this, his heart sank, and it was really hard to imagine what happened to his parents and those people afterward.

Still apprehensive, he put the fourth tape into the tape recorder, and to his surprise, a voice immediately appeared in the tape, it was the man with a northeastern accent.

“…… Is it impossible? The five of them...... Take it back? ”

"Sha Sha ~ ...... Boom ......" (very small noise)

The tape suddenly stopped moving in this place for more than 10 seconds, and suddenly there was a sound again.

"27 May 1997"

(The sound of the phone call)

"Hello Director Wu, the matter has been investigated."

Qin Ding didn't continue to listen, he pressed the backward button.

He was a little strange, why did the time leap from the 24th to the 27th, and the field investigation was completed? What did you do for those two days, why didn't it get on tape, and what did you mean by the sentence you said at the beginning?

After a few seconds, the tape was reversed, he pressed play again, and the sound was repeated.

“…… Is it impossible? The five of them...... Take it back? ”

"Sha Sha ~ ...... Who......"

Qin Ding suddenly pressed the pause button, and his heart beat violently.

Timing-sided, the opening phrase at the beginning of the tape sounds strange and doesn't fit in with the end of the third tape.

But those short words made him very sure that the five missing people should have been found, that is, his parents had been found.

He was a little excited, his hands were shaking, but it suddenly occurred to him that if his parents had been found in May 1997, why no one had informed him, it had been three years.

His heart sank to the bottom again, and the short words, after a few back and forth savors, suddenly became complex and suspicious.

He understands that tapes have great limitations, and if he can't see the scene, he can't judge the current situation, so he can only rely on the imagination of the content he hears, and understand what he guesses to express through tone and cohesion.

Like the opening sentence "Is it impossible?" It is a question sentence that cannot guess the premise, it is a question about what to do, is it related to the information that follows?

Does the "five of them" in that sentence refer to the five missing people? If so, then how to interpret the latter sentence "take it back"? Is it to bring back the living, or is it ...... What about corpses?

Qin Ding bit his fingers, he didn't have any clue, he couldn't ponder this sentence anymore, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was an ominous smell in it.

It wasn't that simple, he rubbed his forehead and thought of something.

Putting that sentence aside for a moment, isn't it too abrupt to say that it suddenly appeared at the beginning of the tape.

Who is that person asking, who is he soliciting in his tone? The brief noise in the tape was whether someone was nodding or shaking their head.

Qin Ding rubbed his temples, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

In his imagination, the content of the fourth tape should be a record of an underground field investigation, and it is really strange why such an incoherent sentence appeared out of thin air.

Didn't this soul hunter record the field trip on tape? I just found something, and I temporarily felt that it was something important before I recorded it?

Is that so?

Qin Ding guessed in his heart, and then shook his head. He thought of what Uncle Ma had said that the content of the tape was to record the process, and when the soul hunter of the previous event went to the basement for a field trip, even if it was mixed with a lot of strange sounds, it was completely recorded, so is it possible that other events are exceptional?

What's going on? A strange thought suddenly popped up in his heart, even if it was a temporary idea, he couldn't say half a word, right...... One less tape?

Thinking of this, he stretched out his hand and rummaged through the large wooden box, and after a while, he found that the tapes marked with "Zhudan" were only these four disks.

He placed the cassettes in front of him and looked down at the serial numbers on them, if a disc was missing, they would definitely not be connected.

After comparing the numbers twice, he was disappointed that the numbers were all consecutive, meaning that there was no lack of tapes at all.

Is it because you are thinking too much?
