blind circle

Liu Meng rushed towards Xie Wan and shouted, "You crazy devil, I want you to pay for my son's life!"

With a "bang", the gunshots pierced the sky, blood was splashed everywhere, and countless birds in the sky scattered in an instant.

"—Ah!" Xia Wanjun, who was trembling beside him, screamed when he saw the blood all over the ground, and passed out on the spot.

"It's really useless!" Liang Hui glanced at Xia Wanjun who fell to the ground with some disgust, and stepped forward to kick him.

Shu Xin, who was packed in a sack, was startled by the gunshots, and a trace of despair arose in his heart. Judging by the number of people, his side was likely to win, but he never expected that the opponent had a gun in his hand!

Not knowing who was injured, he could no longer wait passively.

Shu Xin began to struggle hard, but found that the mouth of the sack had been tied to death, and he could not break free no matter what.

"Village women are so stupid!" Xie Wan chuckled lightly, and lowered her arm holding the pistol, "Don't you want to see your son? I'll let you see it now!"

Xie Wan took the pistol and walked towards Liu Meng who was limp on the ground with disdain on her face. Liu Meng's leg was shot by Xie Wan. She opened her mouth in pain and wanted to shout loudly but she had no strength at all. She could only use both hands Rolling on the ground holding the injured leg.

"You...what are you going to do!" Lin Qi stared at Xie Wan with wide eyes in horror, and immediately stepped forward to stop her.

"Don't move!" Xie Wan pointed her gun at Lin Qi, "If you come here, you will end up with this village woman!"

"Brother!" Lin Mu frowned. He obviously didn't expect the matter to develop to such a point. He grabbed Lin Qi's arm with his hand and shook his head towards him.

At this time, Liang Mo didn't intend to let Lin Qi go, he quickly stepped forward and pressed a dagger against Lin Qi's neck, stared at Lin Qi with fierce eyes and said: "You have to move again, I'm now Let you go and bury my cousin!"

Xie Wan looked at the chaotic scene in front of her and sneered contemptuously. She leaned down beside Liu Meng, "Don't you miss your son very much? I'll let you see his current situation now."

Liu Meng was sweating profusely from the pain, she looked at Xie Wan in horror, only to see Xie Wan's hand waving in front of her face.

After a while, her consciousness became drowsy, and in a blur, she saw Xiao Chen looking at her with watery eyes, and kept shouting, "Mom, mom—"

The next moment, Xiaochen opened his arms and rushed towards him.

"Xiaochen..." Liu Meng murmured in a hoarse and vague voice.

Liu Meng's pupils gradually dilated, and after a while, her body began to convulse slightly.

Lin Qi took a deep breath, he was stunned by the scene in front of him, Liu Meng obviously had hallucinations, very similar to the symptoms after taking some kind of stimulating psychotropic drugs.

Shu Xin quietly listened to everything that happened around him in the sack, and he dared to conclude that Xie Wan must have used some kind of /illusion/drug.

He suddenly recalled the suicide note of Xia Wanjun and the school girl who committed suicide, and instantly realized that Xie Wan used such drugs to the other party when the other party was mentally weak, causing people to frequently produce hallucinations to confuse the other party's mind.

Xie Wan let out a ghostly laugh, and the giggling made people shudder.

"Both of you, put these two useless women on your back!" Xie Wan looked at her watch and instructed the Liang brothers, "It's almost time to go!"

A quarter of an hour later, everyone began to move towards the top of the mountain.

Xie Wan walked on the mountain road panting, she looked up at the top of the mountain, the legendary place was about to arrive.

Due to illness, her physical fitness was almost unable to keep up, and even the hand holding the gun was trembling slightly.

Liang Hui saw that something was wrong with Xie Wan's condition, so he hurried forward to gently support Xie Wan.

"Ahui, don't worry about me...I'm fine." Xie Wan took a few deep breaths, trying to calm herself down.

She will be there soon, as long as she gets there, her wish will come true!

An hour later, a deserted mountain village on the top of the mountain finally appeared in front of everyone. Among them, Lin Qi and Lin Shu were the most struggling, already panting from exhaustion.

Lin Qi carried Liu Meng on his back, and Liu Meng's blood stains had already soaked Lin Qi's trousers, while Lin Mu carried the fainted Xia Wanjun on his back, and Liang Mo held Shu Xin on his shoulders all the time.

The abandoned mountain village in front of me has long been dilapidated under the plunder of time. There is a large millstone in the center of the village, and some weird symbols seem to be drawn on the millstone.

Next to the millstone stands a tall and straight elm tree, and there are five peach trees around it.

The most surprising thing is that there are still many peach blossoms blooming on the peach trees. The cold wind is blowing, and there is still a bit of mysterious fragrance in the air, but this season should have passed the flowering season.

Lin Qi put down Liu Meng from his body, wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked around this strange village, which made him feel more and more shuddering.

"Now you can tell me why you brought us here?" Lin Qi stared at Xie Wan and asked.

On the other side, Ji Liang's car was speeding all the way on the highway, leaving the rest of the police cars far behind.He didn't want to delay even a second, and every second that passed, his heart became more anxious.

After finally arriving at Jiulong Village, Ji Liang took Xiao Chen to the villa where Mary Dalgar lived as quickly as possible.After Xiaochen's confirmation, this is indeed the place where Liu Meng works, and the local police have sealed off the surroundings of the villa before they arrived.

Ji Liang handed Xiao Chen over to the local police. Xiao Chen was not as afraid of Ji Liang as he was at the beginning, and even began to rely on him a little. He grabbed Ji Liang's clothes, unwilling to leave his side.

Ji Liang looked at the tiger-headed cutie in front of him, with a trace of tenderness in his eyes, "Don't be afraid, uncle will help you find mom back!"

Xiaochen curled his lips and nodded timidly, "Then uncle must also bring Brother Shu Xin back."

Hua Chen on the side suddenly laughed, this little clever ghost must have eavesdropped on his conversation with Ji Liang in the car, and secretly wrote down Shu Xin's name.

"Why?" Hua Chen stared at Xiaochen with great interest.

"Because... Shu Xin must be someone my uncle likes very much."

Ji Liang froze for a moment, the words of this little boy actually made his heart tremble.

He never considered what kind of relationship between himself and Shu Xin, he only knew that he must find Shu Xin as soon as possible, if something happened to Shu Xin, he would never forgive himself!

Right now, if you want to find Shu Xin, you must know what Mary Dalgar wants to do, so you can only start from that legend.

Ji Liang is not a local, and he is not very clear about the legends here. Hua Chen only has a half-knowledge of the legends that Marie Dalgar believes. He only knows that Marie Dalgar wants to heal himself through some kind of longevity secret.

Ji Liang was very anxious, but at this moment, he suddenly remembered someone.

He immediately dialed Lin Lei, pacing back and forth anxiously with the phone in one hand, "Sanshi, I want to ask you, are there any legends or major cases near Jiulong Village?"

Lin Lei was stunned for a moment on the other end of the phone. In fact, he was about to call Ji Liang to ask about his brother, but Ji Liang's call arrived one step ahead.

"Brother Ji, there are indeed some legends on Nine Dragon Mountain, but I also heard it from my grandparents when I was young."

Lin Lei: "It is said that there is a village on the top of Jiulong Mountain. Because the village is relatively closed, the people in the village are relatively traditional and ignorant."

"There is a girl named Taohua in the village. She was an abandoned child. However, a barefoot doctor in the village picked her up on the road and raised her as his own daughter. He also passed on some medical skills to her. Later, after Taohua got married However, her husband was accidentally paralyzed. Since then, Taohua has been doing farm work during the day, and started to study medicine when she is free at night, hoping to cure her paralyzed husband."

Lin Lei said to Ji Liang: "It is said that later, Taohua's medical skills became so superb that it could even bring people back to life! It is said that Taohua has acquired some kind of secret technique."

"Not long after, his paralyzed husband was able to stand up and walk slowly!"

Xie Wan's eyes became brighter, as if the exhaustion on her body was swept away, "Peach Blossom found five people with very special birthdays, and let his husband live with their blood along with the petals on these five peach trees. Drinking it on the night of the full moon, his husband was really healed!"

"What nonsense!" Lin Qi sneered.

Lin Lei paused, and continued to talk to Ji Liang on the other end of the phone: "This matter gradually spread, and he started giving free consultations to people in the village."

"Because of the beauty of peach blossoms, some men in the village began to have peach blossoms. Taohua was raped by a group of men while doing farm work. Her husband was still weak because he had just recovered. Not only could he not protect his wife, but he also He even scolded Taohua with other people in the village for being unruly and seducing men!"

When Xie Wan said this, a sternness flashed in her eyes. She once again thought of the man who was sentenced to abandon her many years ago, "You Hua people are so ignorant and stupid!"

She raised her chin and stared at Lin Qi with haughty eyes, "I will definitely make the man who sentenced me pay the price in blood!"

Lin Lei continued: "Later, Taohua couldn't bear the frame-up of the villagers and her husband's treachery, so she chose to hang herself under an elm tree on the night of the full moon again, but the tree was also bleeding. ! And that night, Tao Hua's body also disappeared."

"The weirdest thing is that according to legend, all the peach blossom trees in the village bloomed that night."

"After that, the villagers died strangely one after another, and some villagers even said that they saw peach blossoms at night, and rumors began in the village that the peach blossoms came back for revenge after being reborn!"

After Xie Wan told the whole story, her whole body began to tremble with excitement, "That's why I brought you here!"

Lin Qi smiled wryly: "I've heard of this rumor before."

"After Peach Blossom hanged herself back then, the five men who defiled her also died under these five peach trees overnight. The ultimate purpose of you bringing us here is to repeat Peach Blossom's behavior back then and separate the five of us. Killed under the peach tree, you can be reborn like a peach blossom, right?"

Xie Wan clenched her fists and shouted at Lin Qi, "Yes! I want you all to die! And I want that bastard heartbreaker to die too!"

"It's ridiculous!" Lin Qi laughed.

At this moment, Liang Mo squatted down and patted the sack beside him with his hands, "Senior, did you hear that? I can cure the disease, I won't let you die, trust me!"

Shu Xin held his breath, curled up in the sack and remained motionless. He couldn't believe that these lunatics would believe such absurd legends.

Seeing that Shu Xin was not moving inside, Liang Mo began to panic. He carried Shu Xin himself on his back all the way, for fear of bumping Shu Xin. Could it be that Shu Xin was smothered to death inside?

He hurriedly reached out to untie the tied sack, and Shu Xin, who had been waiting for an opportunity, punched Liang Mo in the face the moment the sack was untied.

When Lin Qi saw that the person in the sack was actually Shu Xin, he was shocked again. Shu Xin is Lin Lei's good friend, and he couldn't just let Shu Xin fall into danger!

Immediately afterwards, Lin Qi rushed to Liang Mo to help Shu Xin subdue Liang Mo.

"--boom!"

The deafening gunshots echoed throughout the valley, as if the small village in front of us was crumbling.
