Paranormal incident investigation notes
Chapter 26 Cannibalism
"This story is mentioned in "Blue Lake Notes" and "Fengting Record" - well, at that time, we had a county magistrate who retired from old age and returned to his hometown. He called himself Blue Lake layman and wrote a book called The local records of Blue Lake Notes are not well-known, so only people like me are interested in reading them. The same is true for Fengting Records, which was written by an old scholar who called himself Mr. Fengting.
The records in the two books are slightly different, but the overall context is the same. "
Lu Qingliang and He Wei listened more seriously.
"It is said that at that time, there was a poor boy in our area. This boy was so poor that he had no father, no mother, no brothers and sisters. He spent all day stealing chickens and dogs, or going to the mountains to find some medicinal materials, hunting prey, etc. in exchange for money to survive.
One day, this poor boy and a friend who was also a poor boy went hunting together in the mountains. But he didn't come back for four or five days.
It is normal for hunters in the mountains to go hunting and not come back for several days. Besides, these two are both gangsters, not very popular, and no one pays attention to them.
It's been like this for more than ten days, and the two people haven't come back yet. The villagers all talked that there might have been an accident, or they had fallen into a cliff, or been eaten by a wild beast.
Not only were the villagers not sad, but they were happy that the village was finally free of disasters.
But the good times did not last long. After a few days, the poor boy came back again, but only he came back.
According to what he said, the two of them encountered a wild beast in the mountains and got lost while escaping. While looking for a way, his companion accidentally fell into a cliff and died. He was the only one who came back alive.
This kind of thing was considered common in that era, and no one suspected it.
But after this incident, for some reason, this poor boy suddenly became rich. His family built a big house, bought land, went to the county town to buy fabrics, and hired tenants, and became a serious landlord.
Some people were curious about where his money came from, but the poor boy remained tight-lipped and only said that he was lucky and received rewards from high-ranking officials in the county.
As time passed, some people began to spread rumors that this boy had picked up money in the mountains. The companion who didn't come back was probably killed by him, and he kept the money for himself. Some say they have found thousand-year-old ginseng, ten-thousand-year-old tuckahoe, and so on.
In short, this guy is rich and has become a landlord.
But this guy is a gambler. I used to gamble when I was a poor boy, but now that I have money, I gamble even more. Soon, the house and the land were all lost. The newly negotiated marriage was also blown. This boy became a poor boy again.
At that time, there was a fool in the village who acted foolishly all day long. One day, this fool suddenly disappeared.
The family started looking for it but couldn't find it. Later it was discovered that the poor boy was also missing.
At that time, people did not think of these two things together.
Later, the poor boy came back again. When I came back this time, I actually had money again. Land, houses and the like are back again. The villagers went to inquire, and the poor boy said that he had met a noble person or something.
This time the villagers were a little suspicious. If you picked up money in the mountains and found some rare medicinal materials, it would be a big deal if you encountered this once, how could you do it twice in a row?
But I really couldn't find anything out, so I slowly let the matter go.
This time the poor boy became honest and stopped gambling. He built a house and land, got a wife, and lived an honest life.
This is the wife he wants, who is loose-spoken. Once when I was chatting with the daughter-in-law of the eldest girl in the village, I let it slip that this poor boy was sleeping one day, talking in his sleep, and shouting something like "Grandpa Mountain God".
He does not mean that.
Later, the villagers began to spread that this poor boy did not go into the mountains to pick up money or find some medicinal materials, but met the mountain god Grandpa. His companion who disappeared at first, and the fool who disappeared in the village later, were all kidnapped by this boy and sacrificed to the mountain god in exchange for money, so that he could have money. "
Hearing this, Lu Qing's conscience was shaken again.
The change in the image of the local mountain god closely coincides with the time when the ancestor identified through genetic tracing lived.
In the story, it is rumored that the poor boy kidnapped people and sacrificed them to the mountain gods in exchange for money, which caused the disappearance of people.
and……
Organization X is also using various magical means to continuously kidnap people with the Hag.1 gene.
Organization
Lu Qingliang and He Wei looked at each other, and both saw a dignified look in each other's eyes.
At this moment, Huang Weimin was talking about the time to rise. He picked up a piece of duck meat, chewed the meat in several bites, spit out the bones, picked up the wine glass, drank it all in one gulp, savored it for a moment, and then started telling the story again.
He Wei hurriedly picked up the wine bottle and filled it for him.
"It was rumored in the village at that time, but no one had any evidence. The family of the missing fool also wanted to find trouble for the boy, but in the end they failed.
This matter gradually faded away. Life went on like that, and this poor boy also had a child, a boy who was smart and cute. Blue Lake Notes said that the boy could recite poems at the age of three and write at the age of five, and became a famous child prodigy from all over the country. Mr. Fengting, an old scholar, even went to the school to test this kid, and he was full of praise when he came back.
The poor boy's family also has money, and if he has such a good child, he will not only pamper him desperately, but also hire a teacher to come to teach the child the Four Books and Five Classics and other things, so that he can prepare to participate in the imperial examination, become a high official, and shine on his family.
In a blink of an eye, the child will be a teenager, and it is time to take the Tongsheng Examination - oh, it is the first level of the imperial examination.
At that time, the child was already somewhat famous, and even his teacher said that there would be no problem in passing the Tongsheng Examination.
But at this juncture, the child turned out to be sick.
The child actually had a big sore on his back. It was as big as a soybean at first, then as big as a jujube, and in five days it grew to the size of a fist. It was red and swollen, and the child cried all day long in pain. The pain lasted for two days, and a high fever developed. I was so dizzy from the fever that I was about to die.
With just such a precious pimple, this kid became ruthless, squandered all his wealth, and even invited famous doctors in the county to treat him. But no matter where the famous doctor came from, he would only take one look at her, then shake his head and leave, saying that he couldn't cure it and asked this kid to prepare the child's funeral.
This kid begged and begged a famous doctor for a prescription for temporary maintenance. After taking the medicine, he said that he would ask the famous doctor in the government to come over and treat him.
At this time, people began to disappear again in the village where this boy was, and in several surrounding villages. The day after this kid left, a child was lost in the nearby village. No matter how hard he looked for it, he couldn't find it. Three days later, a middle-aged man drank wine at a relative's house, said goodbye to his host and went home to sleep. He also disappeared after leaving.
The third person was a woman. She said she was going to the market when she got up in the morning, but she never came back.
Continuous disappearances are a source of panic.
Later, this kid finally came back and said he went to a famous doctor for life-saving medicine.
Hey, that's weird. After one dose of medicine, the child's fever subsided. After two doses of medicine, the child's big sores turned into small sores. After three doses of medicine, the child got out of bed, could eat and drink, and had a rosy complexion. , and he recovered immediately.
What's even more strange is that since this kid returned home, there have been no missing people in the surrounding villages.
So there was another legend, saying that this boy kidnapped three people and sacrificed them to the mountain god. Three people and three doses of medicine saved the child's life. "
Lu Qingliang listened silently, and an idea appeared in his mind uncontrollably.
If the "Mountain God" in the story is the one worshiped by Organization …
The three doses of medicine given to the poor boy in the story were probably not the result of tying up three people. Rather, among the three people, only the last one has the Hag.1 gene.
The first two people do not possess this gene, and there is no use in sacrificing them to the mountain god.
In ancient times, there was no genetic testing technology, so poor boys could only try their luck by kidnapping multiple people.
Of course, Lu Qingliang knew that this was just his own idea and speculation. There are still too many unknowns at this moment, and Huang Weimin’s story has not been finished yet.
"The three families with the missing persons refused to give up. They united to find the poor boy to ask for an explanation, and even reported it to the government. But there was no evidence for this kind of thing. They might have received money. The county government's statement was nonsense. Later, That's all.
Later, this kid got sick himself. Blue Lake Notes said it was a headache, and Fengting Lu said it was burns. In short, it couldn't be cured, and it was so painful that it made people want to die. This time, he said he would go to the mansion to find a doctor for treatment.
This time, every household in the surrounding villages was extra careful. It didn't matter if he was careful. The next night, a child thief was caught in the village. I turned on the torch and took a look, hey, it’s this poor boy who said he was going to the mansion to seek medical advice!
Now it's terrible. Everything that happened before was revealed, and even the county sent people to arrest him. Those families with missing persons were even more excited and wanted to rush forward and beat him to death. Fortunately, the government officials were there and he was not beaten to death. But he can't be taken away for the time being, so he can only be questioned in court.
This one is easy to fight, but this kid can't stand it, so he can only use all the attacks.
He said that he did meet the mountain god in the mountains. The mountain god wanted to eat people and would give benefits to others. The two previous times he made a fortune and treated his children were all done by giving food to the mountain god and asking for money and medicine. This time I was also sick and couldn't bear it anymore, so I wanted to give the mountain god another person to eat and ask for some medicine to cure my illness. Unexpectedly, every household in the ten miles and eight villages had to be more careful, and because he was ill and was unable to move quickly, he was accidentally caught.
The government officials continued to fight, but several victims refused to give up and continued to ask why their own family was chosen. At this time, the boy confessed again, saying that the mountain god did not eat everyone, not even those with no hair or less hair. Even those with a lot of hair would only eat one of them every few years. "
Lu Qingliang's eyes suddenly widened.
hair?
