Chapter 352 - Legend of the Demon Creature
After carefully looking at Zhao Rui for a few moments, after Master Kurenai did not notice anything different, he smiled gently at Zhao Rui and shifted his gaze elsewhere. ** Provide this book txt e-book download ** Next, it was the director who introduced the crowd of the investigation team to Master Kurenai.
Master Kurenai appeared to be very kind and spring-like.
The police officers of the investigation team, originally still a little fearful, after contact, also put down their hearts, not as nervous as at first.
Master Kurenai is very interested in the murderer Wang Xian, therefore, after hearing that Zhao Rui is going to Jiangping Village to investigate Wang Xian's background, also want to add
Zhao Rui's heart was not too willing to kill a Cheng Biaojin, but could not find a suitable reason to refuse, so he shrugged his shoulders, indifferent to acquiesce.
Ding Ling finally also joined in, said to protect the safety of Master Kurenai.
Zhao Rui heart some funny, Kuren is a jindan stage cultivation, although the strength is not comparable to him, but also go not need an ordinary person escort.
However, this idea just turned in the mind, and did not say out.
The next day, Zhao Rui and Ding Ling and Master Ku Rong, the three of them drove an SUV and headed to Jiangping Village.
Although the straight-line distance between Bingyang and Jiangping Village was only a hundred kilometers, but because of the mountains, Zhao Rui drove for more than three hours before he reached his destination.
It was already late afternoon, and the spring sun was hanging in the sky, spilling golden rays down, making people feel warm and comfortable.
However, in sharp contrast to this, the whole village looked a bit dead.
This small village, located at the foot of a large mountain, has only a hundred or so families. \\\ Provide the latest hand typing of this chapter \\\ Houses are new and old. Some of them are newly built brick houses. But most of them are still old-fashioned earth houses, with occasional curls of smoke coming out of the chimneys.
There are no people moving around in the village. Even chickens and ducks are rarely seen.
Zhao Rui stopped the car in the village, and then from the car down, looking for a villager to inquire about the Jiangping village mayor's address, and then directly with Ding Ling and Master Kureng to find the past.
This Jiangping village chief surnamed Bai, more than sixty years old, an old man, holding a copper-tipped cigarette sticks, wearing a yellow jacket. Light gray ground old pants, head white, full of knife-carved general wrinkles, so that his appearance, appearing older than his actual age a few years.
After hearing the reason for Zhao Rui's visit, the village chief's face, which was already a bit sad, showed a strong worry.
He sat on the bed, smoking a dry cigarette without saying a word, as if he was considering something. After a while, he slowly said: "Wang Xian's parents died early, and there is no wife, he is alone. Wang Xian used to be kind and cheerful, the village people and he got along very well. But. Since a few months ago, he went into the mountains, his personality has changed greatly, people feel afraid, even the villagers who are usually close to him, are afraid to approach with him. Until a month ago, he suddenly disappeared from the village. There was no more news of him. I never thought. He actually made such a big case in Bingyang."
"Then do you know why Wang Xian suddenly changed his personality?" Zhao Rui then asked. "Is there some special reason?"
Village Chief Bai fell silent, with a look of fear on his face.
After a while of silence, he used his cigarette stick to point at the rolling hills outside the window and said, "We have a very old legend here. It is said that a long time ago, in the depths of the mountains, there used to live a powerful and terrifying demon! As soon as it appears, it will be a thousand miles of bare ground, the land cracked. . It also liked to eat people's hearts and turn them into walking corpses! Later, a divine monk with profound Buddhist teachings came to the village. And the monster fierce battle for seven days and nights, it can be said that the sky and earth, landslides, and finally, the monk finally defeated the monster. However, the monk was also exhausted, seriously injured, unable to kill the monster, only to seal it in the deep mountains in the cave of ten thousand bones. Since then, it has become a forbidden place for villagers, no one, dare to approach. If someone accidentally enters, will be infected by the demonic energy emitted by the monster, turning into a walking corpse, manipulated by it. I doubt that Wang Xian has encountered the demon and suddenly had such a big transformation."
White village chief finished, sunken face, began to swallow clouds and fog, so that the whole house is the pungent smell of tobacco.
Barely a thousand miles, specializing in eating the hearts of demons?
Zhao Rui listened to the description of the village chief, began to think about the demon creatures that meet this characteristic.
Legend and reality are naturally very different, however, sometimes, the legend can also provide some basis.
Zhao Rui lowered his head, thinking carefully for a while, suddenly remembered an extremely terrifying demon, and the description of the village chief, very similar, the heart could not help but slightly sink.
If it is really that kind of demon, even with his strength, this trip is also quite dangerous.
Zhao Rui suddenly remembered the demon controlled by the sanity of Wang Xian.
Will run to more than a hundred kilometers away from the Bingyang crime, and not close to the villagers of Jiangping village, probably because the rabbit does not eat the grass on the edge of the nest.
After all, in the village to commit a crime, easy to attract attention, attracting strong enemies.
Another possibility is that the demons in the deep mountains, need a specific human heart, the villagers of Jiangping village, does not meet the conditions, so only able to control Wang Xian, go to Bingyang to find a suitable candidate.
Of course, this is all his personal measurement, in the end what the reason is really unknown.
"White village chief, do you know, in the legend, where the demon creature is sealed? We would like to go over and take a look." Ding Ling walked around in place, head down and thought for a while, and suddenly made a request.
"Ah? You guys want to go into the mountain?" The village chief was taken aback, his hand holding the cigarette stick stopped in mid-air, "You can't go there! There is an extremely dangerous place, the Grotto of Ten Thousand Bones! There is no return! The villagers of our village, not to mention the Ten Thousand Bone Grotto, usually even the mountain, do not want to go near!"
"The villagers don't need to go near it. Just bring us to the foot of the mountain where the Cave of Ten Thousand Bones is located, and we'll be fine." Master Ku Rong, who had been sitting quietly beside him and had not spoken, suddenly spoke, "For the rest, we will find our own way there."
"You guys better not go there, it's really too dangerous. Listen to me, I'm not being alarmist!" Village Chief Bai tried his best to persuade bitterly, hoping to dissuade the three.
However, Zhao Rui and Kulong were both strong-willed people who had already made up their minds, so naturally they would not change anything.
Ding Ling also had the intention to go to the Ten Thousand Ancient Grottoes to have a look, plus she was responsible for Master Kurenai's safety, so she also did not take the words of Village Chief Bai to heart.
Seeing that the three ignored his kind advice, Village Chief Bai sighed, said no more, and went out to find a villager willing to lead the way.
Zhao Rui three people are waiting in the house.
After waiting for a while, the village chief did not return, Zhao Rui felt that the atmosphere in the house was a bit depressing, so he stood up and walked outside the house.
The spring light outside the house was far stronger than the one inside.
Ding Ling also probably felt silly sitting in the house, nothing interesting, also followed and walked out.
"Do you think what the village chief said is credible?" Ding Ling looked out at the dark mountain peaks in the distance and asked.
"What do you think?" Zhao Rui did not directly answer, but slightly inclined his head, looking at Ding Ling's beautiful side asked rhetorically.
"I don't know, half-trusted." Ding Ling slightly knitted her two willow brows, looking a little confused, "I always feel that the things the village head said are a little too exaggerated, making it a little hard for me to accept. If in the past, I would never believe in these things, but since seeing the horror of the murderer Wang Xian, and saw the amazing power of the mysterious silver-faced man, so I have to try to believe that in this world, there is indeed something, outside the scope of scientific understanding."
Zhao Rui smiled and said, "Twenty years of common sense was suddenly overturned, indeed, people can not adapt for a while, but you do not have to care too much. The story that the village chief told, is it a legend or is it true, after you arrive at the Grotto of the Ancients, it will naturally become clear."
Ding Ling gave a hint, glanced at Zhao Rui, no longer spoke, but in his heart, he felt that although this Zhao Rui style rogue, poor character, but the psychological quality and the ability to accept new things, is more than ordinary people, so far, he did not show a trace of surprise, impressive.
Zhao Rui three people waited for a long time before the village chief Bai returned to the house with a strong man in his forties.
The village chief met the three of them and then said, "The Ten Thousand Ancient Grottoes are too frightening for the village people to hear about, and they are not willing to approach it. However, he can only take you close to the Grotto of Ten Thousand Ancients, it is never possible to go in."
"Amitabha Buddha, thank you very much, Village Chief Bai. Just approaching the Grotto of Ten Thousand Ancients is enough." Master Kurenai pronounced a Buddhist hymn and slightly owed his body towards the village chief.
"Then let's go now." Bai Qiang said sullenly and walked out with big steps.
