The years of reselling the haunted house

Liang Yue stepped forward and asked, "Sanjin, why are you leaving?"

Sanjin looked up at Liang Yue, and said, "Girl, I advise you to go back quickly. You can't go further into this place. I met those toads at the beginning, and you might encounter something else when you go in. You can go in if you want, please, just let me go as a fart. I brought you here and completed the task. I don’t know what it is like inside and how to get there. I said I came in once when I was a kid, and that was all my bragging. I just wanted to trick you into spending some money, and then find a chance to slip away. I never came in, really..."

San Jin is a ghost, and he doesn't know what he said is true.

Qian Qingfeng said from the side: "Girl, otherwise let him go, it's really useless to keep him."

Sea Wolf said: "Old Qian, what are you talking about? Do you know that our actions are kept secret? You let him go, what should you do if he goes out?"

San Jin hurriedly said: "I won't tell if I won't tell, I will never tell. Otherwise, I will return all the money you gave me."

Liang Yue shook her head and said: "Sea Wolf is right, we can't let you go. Sanjin, it's for your own good. You know our itinerary, even if you don't go with us, it will be more dangerous after you go out. You and us Being together is to ensure your safety."

What Liang Yue meant was naturally that he was afraid that Sanjin would talk nonsense and leak secrets after he left.According to Sanjin's personality, after going out, he would definitely brag about his experience as capital.And our operation is confidential this time, Qu Kangcheng has been restricted in Shenzhen, how could we let San Jin go out.If the news gets back at that time, Hailong's headquarters will definitely take measures against Sanjin.At that time, Sanjin's safety may really be difficult to guarantee.

However, Sanjin probably wouldn't believe what Liang Yue said, but in this situation, he also understood that he definitely couldn't leave here.

Liang Yue said again: "Also. You continue with us on the following itinerary, and we will treat you as a partner. You'd better stop doing things that harm our team. Otherwise, I can't guarantee your safety... ..."

Sea Wolf scolded: "Did you hear me clearly? If you make such a fuss, I'll kill you with one shot."

Sanjin was dejected, and said, "Okay. I'll follow your orders. Sigh..."

Sea Wolf kicked three catties: "Slip up and return the things. The key was kept so secret that you found it out. I didn't expect you to have this ability."

Look at this kid Sanjin, from the time he was dealing with us, he has always been careful when he turned around. I guess he has been mischievous and sneaky in Jiagu Pass.

But such a person, generally speaking, has a bright mind, as long as he puts his mind on the right way, he will quickly rise to the top. Fortunately, there is a sea wolf on our side who can cure him.Now he was subdued by the sea wolf, and he shrank his neck and returned the stolen key to us.

By this time, the sky had brightened.The fog that shrouded the Devil's Forest has also dissipated a lot.

Although we suspect that the mist is poisonous, at least we didn't feel any discomfort last night.This has greatly relieved our nervousness, and it also makes us one less worry about the future.

Just imagine, if the fog is poisonous, the air will be poisonous. When we walk in it, we must breathe the air here, and we only wear simple anti-gas masks, which are similar to the anti-smog masks we use now.If the poisonous gas is strong, this mask will not be able to protect against it at all.

And those real gas masks are very inconvenient to carry, so we didn't bring them at all.

After dawn, Liang Yue called everyone together to discuss the next plan.

Since we encountered such a big challenge on the first night here, what to do next and how to proceed are related to everyone's life safety and interests.Even if she has the absolute right to speak, Liang Yue still needs to ask for everyone's opinions at this time.

Qian Qingfeng first said: "Girl, I remember that when we came here, we passed a fork in the road. Since there are so many situations here, and we haven't found any traces of the group we want to track down, should we go back and walk?" Try another way?"

Liang Yue asked, "Mr. Qian, do you have any basis for choosing to go the other way?"

Qian Qingfeng nodded and said: "Actually, when I was at that fork, I observed two roads. Although they looked the same on the surface, it seemed that the fog in the other road was a little lighter. And I suspect that that The stones on this road have traces of being moved."

Upon hearing this, Sea Wolf said to Qian Qingfeng: "I said, old horse, for your observation and judgment, should I express my admiration, or should I scold you?"

Qian Qingfeng was stunned: "Old horse? Who is old horse? I'm old Qian. Sea wolf, are you confused?"

Qian Qingfeng looked around, and we were also very surprised, there is no one with the surname Ma here.

Hailang pointed at Qian Qingfeng: "Don't look at it, I'm just talking about you..."

Chapter 1405

"My...my surname is Qian, not Ma. Sea Wolf...you haven't recovered from the poison yet, have you relapsed?" Qian Qingfeng said in surprise.

Sea Wolf waved his hand: "Relapse. I don't know your surname is Qian, but I advise you not to surname Qian, let's surname Ma. Isn't there someone named Ma Di in that team? Let's find a surname here too. Damn, it’s just right, I’ve already given you a name, it’s called... Afterwards. How about it? Is it loud?"

Only then did everyone understand what Hailang meant. It turned out that he was laughing at Qian Qingfeng as an afterthought.

Everyone couldn't help laughing. Among us, Qian Qingfeng is the oldest, and Liang Yue respects him very much, so everyone respects him too.But I also discovered that this Qian Qingfeng is indeed an afterthought.When he found those golden-threaded toads, he didn't think of talking about the origin of these golden-threaded toads until it was too late to recover.

This time is the same, we have already embarked on this road, but he remembered his own judgment and observation at that time.Like Sea Wolf said, this is another afterthought.

As for Qian Qingfeng, only Sea Wolf dared to say that.This made Qian Qingfeng blush, and he didn't know how to explain it.

Liang Yue scolded: "Sea Wolf, why are you talking to Mr. Qian?"

Sea Wolf chuckled: "Mr. Qian, don't mind. I just think that you should have said it when you found out about it. How come you didn't say it until now."

Qian Qingfeng waved his hand: "At that time, I only observed these situations, but these situations and discoveries were not enough for me to make a judgment to take another path. In other words, even if I took another path, I would not I can guarantee that nothing will happen. Maybe I took another road and encountered greater danger than this side.”

Liang Yue shook his head: "Mr. Qian, we are taking a road that no one has explored before. No one knows what will happen in the future. Even if it is a small discovery, you have to tell everyone to discuss it. You can't wait until the evidence is solid We'll talk about it later, because there can't be that time."

Qian Qingfeng nodded: "Girl, this is my fault, I will pay attention to it in the future. Then do we have to go back to that road?"

Liang Yue said: "We have already withdrawn, we might as well go back to that fork in the road to observe and see the phenomena you mentioned, Mr. Qian, before making a decision."

So we all got into the car again, turned the car around reluctantly, walked back, and came to the front of the fork.

We got out of the car one after another, stood in front of the fork, and looked into the two roads.

In fact, the two roads are similar at first glance, not as obvious as Qian Qingfeng said.

But because of what Qian Qingfeng said before, when we looked again, we did find that the fog seemed to be a little lighter in the other road.And the fog is flowing, as if the fog will be blown away by the wind.

We walked to the intersection of the other road and found that there was a big stone on both sides of the intersection.The ground is covered with moss, but in the middle of the intersection, there are two bare spots.

Qian Qingfeng pointed to the two bare ground and said: "Look, this should be the original position of the two stones. The surrounding area is covered with moss, but because these two places are pressed by the stones, they are bald. Obviously Someone moved the two stones from their original places."

Liang Yue nodded: "And it won't take too long, because new moss has not yet grown on the bare ground. According to the time calculation, it is very likely that the team did it."

Sea Wolf hurriedly said: "Then what are you waiting for, they must have come this way. Old Qian, you're an afterthought. We should be able to find them if we chase them down."

Liang Yue also nodded and said, "I also think they are most likely to go this way. Everyone is ready to go with their equipment."

After Hailang and Liang Yue finished speaking, most of them began to pack their equipment again.

However, my third uncle and I didn't respond. Liang Yue and Hailang quickly noticed us. They were a little puzzled and looked at me and my third uncle with puzzled expressions.

At this time, Uncle San sneered.

Sea Wolf was taken aback: "Old Daoist, what are you laughing at?"

The third uncle hugged his shoulders and said slowly: "This time, I have Liang Yue as the captain, and I don't want to express any opinions. But today, I have to say something about which way to go, otherwise you They will also say that I am an afterthought."

Liang Yue glanced at Third Uncle and said, "Daoist Priest Dongbin, if you have something to say, just say it."

I looked at Liang Yue. Although this was still the familiar face, I always felt that she was a little strange. Before that, Liang Yue and the third uncle had a very good relationship.She is also called Sanshu just like me.

Unexpectedly, now one mouthful of Dongbin Daoist priests made my third uncle and I very helpless.We prefer to believe that Liang Yue has not changed, but has difficulties.So for this, we are already used to it.

The third uncle waved his hand: "It's very simple. Based on this stone, can you conclude that they are going this way? Then have you ever thought about it, this may be a mark they deliberately made, and the purpose is to mislead people who come later." What about the people who chased them. Since our operation was carried out in secret, I think they definitely don't want people to know their whereabouts, right? Judging from their actions of robbing Ma Su and others, this is definitely a well-planned operation. Strict organization. I don't believe that they can be so careless in doing things, remove the stone, and leave the traces for the people behind to see, this may be a trick they used to hit the west."

Uncle San's words are very clear and the reason is very simple.

And Liang Yue and Hailang are also smart people. They were a little hot-headed just now, but after what Uncle San said, they immediately woke up.Obviously, anyone who listens to what the third uncle said will think it is correct, at least they should not make such a hasty decision.

Liang Yue asked, "What does the Taoist chief mean, that we still go the same way?"

The third uncle shook his head: "I didn't say that."

Sea Wolf was a little anxious: "Old Taoist, what do you mean, half of what you say and half of what you say. Which way do you want to go, can you make it clear if you have anything to say?"

I hurriedly explained: "What my third uncle means is that he just expressed his own thoughts, and the specific decision-making still depends on Captain Liang. This is what Captain Liang said just now. No one can guarantee that he will choose That path is right. We just remind you to take into account the factors that Uncle San said when choosing a path. No matter which path the captain decides to take, we will firmly implement it.”

I believe what I said is what Uncle San thinks.

It turns out that when we act together with Liang Yue, it is usually the third uncle who makes the decision, and Liang Yue and I will obey the arrangement of the third uncle.

Chapter 1406 Group Action

This time the third uncle put the position very rightly, and basically didn't express any opinions along the way, just followed.This time, the decision-making power was handed over to Liang Yue.

We lowered our positions and completely regarded them as Liang Yue's subordinates. This change in mutual relationship is also a change of hot and cold relationship.While strengthening the relationship between superiors and subordinates, to a certain extent, it also distanced the relationship between us and Liang Yue.

After I finished speaking, I paid attention to Liang Yue's reaction.

I believe that Liang Yue will definitely react to what my third uncle and I have said.

Sure enough, there was a subtle change in the expression on Liang Yue's face, showing a little helplessness and a bit of pain.But the expression was fleeting and didn't stay on her face for long.

Soon Liang Yue returned to her original appearance, stern and dignified.

But this brief change is enough, which made me realize that Liang Yue still cares about the relationship and relationship with us.She showed that she was so unfamiliar with us, maybe it was for people to see.

All of us also focused on Liang Yue, and it was up to Liang Yue how we acted next.

After a short thought, Liang Yue finally said to everyone: "What Master Dongbin said just now is very reasonable. We have reason to suspect that this is a smoke bomb deliberately released by the other party. In addition, we were already on that road last night. After going through the difficulties on the road, it can be regarded as a preliminary understanding of the road conditions of this road. So I decided, we will follow the original plan and go back to the road yesterday. I don’t know if you have any opinions on this?”

Everyone looked at each other and didn't express any opinions.

Originally, these two roads were both in the Devil's Forest, and it didn't make much difference whether we took the left or the right.If you go the other way, even if you don't encounter any golden thread toads, you will encounter other snakes, scorpions, and the degree of danger may be even higher.

So since we've all had our initial trials, it doesn't matter which way we go.

Seeing that we didn't respond, Liang Yue waved his hand: "In that case, everyone, get in the car and continue on the same road as yesterday."

We got in the car again, started the car and came to the place where it was parked last night again.

At this time, the sun has risen. It can be said that we have tossed a whole night and a morning in vain, and we have come to the starting point again.

So looking at that intersection, we all felt like crying.

When we get here, we can no longer drive forward. We can only take all the available equipment with us according to yesterday's route, and choose to walk in.

Going back the same way, we must go through the battlefield last night, the battlefield where we had a good confrontation with the golden thread toad and the marmot mouse.

Although this conflict has passed, we still have lingering fears when we think about what happened last night.

But fortunately, it is still daytime. Qian Qingfeng said that the golden thread toad is active at night.They don't appear during the day.

Even so, our pace of entry slowed down.Hope to observe some necessary clues.

We observed all the way, and soon approached the three stones where we met the Mouse King and Toad King.

We subconsciously looked at the stone, and there was the corpse of the golden thread toad king on it.But now, the top of the stone is empty.

Everyone surrounded the past, very surprised.

That Toad King is dead, and there is absolutely no possibility of resurrection.Obviously, it should have been taken away by another golden thread toad or marmot mouse.

We just took a brief look around and moved on.Soon I came to the place where I camped yesterday again.When I got here, the experience of last night resurfaced before my eyes.

The ring of fire we set up is still clearly visible.There are still a lot of tent fragments that have not been burned clean.Last night we burned a circle here, and when the sea wolf came to rescue us, it burned again.

Until now, there is still a faint smell of smoke and burnt.

We turned around, and Chuan Shanjia scratched his head and said, "It's strange, why does it feel like something's wrong?"

I nodded and said, "Of course something is wrong. Didn't you notice it? How clean is this battlefield?"

Everyone has noticed my words.On the field, except for the fire circle we set up, no other places can see that there has been such a fierce battle here.

Chuan Shanjia nodded: "Yes, yes, yes, when I rushed out yesterday, and when the sea wolf rushed out, I had a direct confrontation with many golden thread toads. I remember I killed a lot of toads, how could there be any traces on the scene?" None left?

That's true, in fact, not only the outer circle of the fire circle, but also a lot of golden thread toads got in through the hole in the fire circle, and many of those golden thread toads were wiped out by us.

But at the scene, the bodies of those golden thread toads were all gone.Not only that, even the blood stains on the ground were gone.

If the toad's body could be dragged away by other companions, what about the blood on the ground?

It's an incredible thing.

Because these bloodstains are left on the ground, maybe only humans can clean them so clean.If it's just other golden thread toads, it seems that they don't have such ability.

"Girl, there are no other people here?" Sea Wolf asked.

"How about this? Let's disperse and divide into four groups. Start from the four directions of southeast, northwest, and spread the search. But don't go too far. The search range is 300 meters. If you find anything, come back as soon as possible." Liang Yue also realized the seriousness of the problem. , directing everyone to start action.

The sea wolf responded first: "Okay, then the girl and I..."

Before Sea Wolf finished speaking, Liang Yue interrupted him, and continued to direct: "Sea Wolf, you and Mr. Qian should be in the same group. Mr. Qian is not in good health, take care of him."

Hailang glanced at Liang Yue, hesitated to speak, and nodded again.

I happened to be with Uncle San, so I waved and said, "Then Uncle San and I are in a group. Let's go east."

Saying that, I didn't care about other people, so I took my things and searched eastward along this site with Uncle San.

In fact, the terrain here is not complicated, there are only some random stones and some trees.It's not too difficult to search. I think that since the bodies of these golden thread toads have been cleaned up, there must be some clues left on the ground.

Our task is just to see if we can find these clues.

The camp we are in is relatively flat and relatively dry nearby.So the sea wolf would choose to camp here.

And from the place where we camped, and then spread to the surrounding area, the ground became much wetter.And there are some gravel and dirt everywhere.
