[In adulthood, the border patrol officers of the town discovered an anomaly during investigation. A villager from a small border village returned to the village after missing for two years, and died suddenly and mysteriously a few days after returning. According to the patrol officer's investigation, this person had extensive burns all over his body and suffered extremely severe bite injuries. His words were vague and his thinking was confused, but he repeatedly expressed his belief in a certain god very firmly. My superior suspected that this was a precursor to some strange event, so I was ordered to conduct an in-depth investigation and try to find out the source of the anomaly]
[After careful investigation around the village, I confirmed that this villager walked out from the direction of the nearby "Dead Man Mountain". It is difficult to imagine how an ordinary villager came out alive from such a place. This incident is indeed quite unusual]
[The so-called "Dead Man's Mountain" is not a special mountain, but a common name used by local residents for the undeveloped virgin forest and continuous mountains. The terrain here is steep, the climate is humid, poisonous insects and beasts can be seen everywhere, and the tall forest blocks the sky. Even if the locals rush into it rashly, there is a high possibility that they will not return. I led three subordinates to conduct an investigation here for fifteen days, and found that deep in the mountains, far away from human habitation, there seemed to be traces of activities]
[I searched along these traces, and after three days, I actually arrived at a mountain village. This village is very large, with at least thousands of villagers living there. They rely on the melted water from the snowy mountains and rivers to irrigate their fields and rely on the mountains to eat. I don’t know how many years they have lived here. I thought I knew the local dialect, but when I talked with them, it was still difficult to understand them. , Could it be that they are some kind of Peach Blossom Land people? 】
[In any case, even though the initial contact was very novel, I can conclude that this place is by no means the paradise written by Tao Gong, but rather a nest that breeds strange things. After just a few days of investigation, I confirmed the existence of at least two different strange objects. These things have been here with the villagers for a long time, so that the villagers have become accustomed to their presence. But a monster is a monster after all, and it is an evil that will change more with the continuous death of people. The scale must be controlled when it sprouts, otherwise there will only be greater sacrifices.]
[The question now is how long these monsters have been with the villagers, and how many types of monsters are hidden here. In addition, the villagers here were extremely hostile to me. In order to suppress them, I had to kill several villagers who attacked me at night, but even if I gave up the attack, they still could not cooperate smoothly with the Suppressors. Even if I Even if I forge my identity as a government official, I can’t seem to win their trust. This operation may be very difficult.]
[The next ■■■ is checked as ■■... (The next large section has been torn)]
This incomplete investigation record alone is enough to explain a lot of problems for Gao Hai.
The so-called Trick Suppressor is obviously a secret existence with strict organization. They seem to have monitoring and investigation teams in various places, and they will constantly look for traces of the Tricks. When necessary, they will also forge the identity of the government, and it seems that they should be quite familiar with this forgery process.
They should also have a fairly comprehensive understanding of strange things. They know that this thing will change as more and more people die, and they know that they must control the situation as much as possible in the budding stage of problems. Unfortunately, judging from the fact that this place became the Red Moon-level dungeon [Infant Crying Village], this organization's operation here ultimately failed completely, and it might even cost everyone's lives as a result.
Gao Hai looked at the end of the record again, the incomplete sentence at the end of the investigation record.
【……■Ranshan■ is treacherous■, why is ■■■mother ■not■? For ■two■■■■……]
This is the last text of this severely damaged record. It has been damaged so badly that even after restoration, only a few words can be barely legible. After all, the old principal's blessing was to restore the blurred text, and the gaps in the broken paper could not be restored together.
Gao Hai, who was sitting in the living room, stared at this line of words for a long time, guessing what the original meaning of the words was.
But suddenly, he tensed up slightly and his attention quickly shifted.
This feeling……
He did not look back, but quickly reminded his teammates around him through his spiritual link.
If you just observe the surface, Gao Hai doesn't seem to have changed much at this moment.
But he knew very well that at that moment, someone behind him gently pulled at the hem of his clothes.
Chapter 18: The presence felt from the things behind and the things arriving quietly
There is something behind me.
It's not that big, it seems to be only the height of a child.
The hands pulling his clothes are small and don't have much strength, but the movements are very frequent and very steady. Normal people will not do things at the same rhythm all the time. Therefore, there is no need to continue to think and analyze this question. What is that thing behind?
Even though his senses didn't detect anything strange, and he didn't find any clear smell of strange things emerging behind him, Gao Hai immediately knew after the strange feeling of being pulled on his sleeves by the mysterious thing. He has become the "target".
During the daytime, although staying in a specific house in [Liujia Village] is relatively safe, it is not absolutely safe. In fact, there are also dangerous monsters hidden in these houses. It’s just that compared with those things on the street, they are usually not very active, so as long as you are careful and cautious, nothing will usually happen.
Well, at least that’s what the rule sheet says.
Gao Hai recalled the content of the rule sheet he had heard from Kaguya before in silence, and the force pulling his sleeve appeared again at this time, and it was obviously more urgent than before.
{Hai Jun, from my side, there is nothing behind you}
Mahi looked at Gao Hai’s back with a cautious face for a long time, and finally just whispered in the mental connection.
{What is the specific feeling now? Is that thing dangerous in your perception, Ahai? }
Qianhua, who came up carefully, obviously couldn’t see whether there was a monster behind Gao Hai, so she also asked in the mental connection.
{At least I don't feel any danger now, but this thing seems to want to face me. If I delay any longer, I'm not sure what it will do. I can feel that its aura is becoming more and more dangerous.}
Gao Hai answered in the mental link while taking out a 20-sided golden dice from his black watch, throwing it up, reaching out to catch it, clenching it with his fist, and then spreading his palm. As a result, the number on the side of the dice facing Gao Hai in his palm was [4], which is undoubtedly a number representing misfortune and bad luck.
It's really not good to shake out such a number.
Gao Hai, who originally just wanted to try his luck with this dice, immediately showed an unhappy expression like an old man on the subway. Before, he didn't think too much when he threw the dice. He just wanted to see if there would be any danger if he turned around to look at this thing. As a result, when the dice threw out such a number, he didn't dare to look back. He just sat there motionless with a serious face.
However, even if he continued to sit still, the thing behind him had no intention of stopping, and kept pulling his clothes.
{Senior, there is a voice behind you, and it sounds like a little boy}
Jizi did not turn around. Under Gao Hai's order, only this girl with strong perception was not allowed to turn around to check the situation behind him. After all, even if other people looked over, nothing would happen. After she looked, the situation might become more serious. But even so, with her back to Gao Hai, Yotsuya Miko still felt something and heard the voice coming from behind Gao Hai.
{Be careful, if that thing finds you, it will be difficult to deal with. Can you confirm that you are safe now?}
Gao Hai did not rush to get information from Miko, but asked cautiously first. He really didn't want Miko's tragic death at the beginning of the third round of Yeluoshan Middle School to happen again.
{No problem, that voice...its focus is on you, senior}
The girl shook her head gently, and then continued to listen carefully.
{He is clinging to your back, and he has been trying to say something to you}
{Hmm... I can't quite hear what he is saying, his voice seems to be blocked by something...}
{But what is certain is that he is very anxious, very anxious, and is becoming more and more anxious}
Jizi closed his eyes, answered in the mental link, and wanted to try to sense the thing behind Gao Hai more carefully.
{Okay, don't listen anymore, I have other ways to test}
But then Gao Hai stopped the girl's behavior in the mental link, and then he waved his hand and took out a small pencil from the black watch.
The Pen of the Perseverer, this is the Red Moon-level obsession that Gao Hai got from Yuanshan Ming in the Zaodachi Elementary School copy, and he has no intention of returning it to the other party. Its effect is that after the user comes into contact with the power of the ghost story, he can use the user's blood as the raw material to draw the appearance of the relevant weird or related items, and after the drawing process and the end, the user will be strongly affected by the relevant weird and will sense the negative emotions of the other party before death.
This thing is perfect for this place in Gao Hai's opinion. At least compared to letting Jianzi contact a strange creature whose identity is unknown and whose danger is unknown, it is better to operate it by himself. After all, he is stronger in terms of mental strength and life-saving ability.
Without hesitation, Gao Hai started painting directly on the sandy ground. Anyway, the pigment of this thing is his blood, so even on such a ground, he can still draw something.
Although Zhen Fei and others are very worried, in order to ensure safety, they have now turned around to guard the surroundings to prevent more strange creatures from finding Gao Hai. Gao Hai, who continued to sit in the same place, after carefully sketching for a long time, or rather, it was this pen that led Gao Hai's hand to draw for a long time, gradually drew a portrait.
It was a thin young boy, who should not be more than ten years old.
The boy held a small wooden box in his hand, and his expression on his face looked very anxious, as if he was looking for someone and was about to say something to someone.
What did he want to say?
Gao Hai lowered his head and turned one ear towards the other party.
[Let's go, little Taoist brother]
Then a somewhat childish voice reached Gao Hai's ears.
[Stop looking for your master and leave quickly]
[If you don’t leave, you really won’t be able to leave]
【Quick! Hurry up! 】
It was as if the boy was really standing in front of him, thrusting the small box into his arms, and speaking loudly to him anxiously.
Then, something came from far away.
In the darkness, the shadows gradually spread and moved closer to Gao Hai's position.
Little Taoist Brother? master?
Gao Hai frowned. Was it the voice of this strange boy that he heard at that moment? Or are they fragments of memories left over from when this thing was still alive?
His thinking did not last long.
As the pencil stopped automatically and the complete picture of the boy was drawn, a strong coldness suddenly burst out behind Gao Hai, and then a series of crazy and intense emotions were released in Gao Hai's mind.
pain.
The pain was so intense that it almost caused convulsions all over the body.
This feeling...is this...the feeling of being eaten?
Gao Hai, who had already experienced being eaten alive once at Yeluoshan Middle School, and was also dining with the two beautiful girls of the real concubine Kaguya, immediately noticed the similarity between the two feelings. However, compared with Gao Hai's encounter, this boy's situation is still somewhat different.
It seems...it starts from the face...
The skin and flesh were torn, the eyes and nose were bitten off, and the bones all over the body were broken. They fainted from the severe pain, and then woke up from the pain and fainted again.
He couldn't make a scream because his throat had been completely burned by the medicine.
It was even more impossible to struggle. His hands and feet had been broken long before the feeding began.
It was like a specially prepared sacrifice.
Yes, for a traitor, isn't this kind of ending a natural outcome?
[Everyone has seen it. I didn’t want to do this, but this child is so disrespectful to the queen and wants to collude with outsiders and help outsiders escape]
[Tsk, tsk, if we really just let things like this go, is that okay? If this continues, can our Liujiacun survive? 】
[This definitely won’t work, right? So, don’t sigh here, just have another child. Besides, it was originally your family’s turn this year. Although it is a bit early, as long as the new ones are replaced next year, the queen will not blame you. Yours】
Someone is talking nearby.
His tone was slow, old-fashioned, and his words were sincere.
I heard someone knelt down and kowtowed in thanks. They seemed to be a man and a woman, both of whom were not particularly old.
Are they the child's parents?
[Clan leader, we all know that we didn’t take good care of the child this time]
[Oh, it’s a pity. The queen is probably very dissatisfied this time. These outsiders are just hateful. If it weren’t for these two liars, how could we be so embarrassed? ! 】
No sadness or pain can be heard.
The man was sighing and the woman was muttering angrily. Neither of them were in a very good mood, but Gao Hai couldn't feel any emotion directed toward the child from their voices.
They...are not in a bad mood because of the death of their child.
They are just unhappy and angry because their children don't listen to them.
how so?
Gao Hai couldn't help but have such thoughts in his heart.
Gao Hai felt the child's shocked thoughts at the last moment of his life.
Buzz——
Amid the strong chill, Gao Hai half-knelt on the ground and took several heavy breaths.
The damage to his consciousness was stronger than expected. Although what he felt was only the residual consciousness of a child, this consciousness seemed to be connected to something extraordinary, so that the power followed this connection. A little contact with Gao Hai brought him quite severe mental stimulation.
Of course, it's just mental stimulation. For Gao Hai, it takes about ten seconds to adjust his breathing and ignore the situation.
{How is the situation around you? }
Gao Hai asked in the spiritual link.
{Fortunately, there is nothing abnormal so far. Those strange things moving outside did not notice the movement inside the house}
"Fortunately, there is nothing abnormal so far. Those strange things moving outside did not notice the movement inside the house."
The true concubine's voice quickly answered Gao Hai.
{Well, there is no problem around, how about you, senior? }
"Well, there's no problem around, what about you, senior?"
Miko's voice also sounded.
{Nothing unusual happened in the house. Hmm, your willpower is too scary, right? You can actually adjust so quickly after using the [Pen of the Perseverant] to come into contact with the power of a strange thing. Is that a lie? }
Kita spoke up for the rare occasion, commenting with emotion on Gao Hai's behavior just now.
"...?"
The next moment, Gao Hai raised his head with some doubts and looked into the room, looking at the four people Shijou Zhenfei, Fujiwara Chika, Shinomiya Kaguya and Hayasaka Ai who were watching him worriedly, as well as the four people on the side who were still carrying their heads to avoid triggering anything. Yotsuya Miko facing him.
Kita Ikuyo's figure was floating aside, just a phantom in his sight. At this time, the red-haired girl saw Gao Hai suddenly looking towards her steadily. For a moment, she felt uncomfortable, crossed her arms and took a step back, and asked He said {Why are you staring at me all the time}.
Wink.
Gao Hai turned his head and looked at the five girls in the room, looking at their faces that were no different from those in his memory.
Then, his pupils suddenly tightened, and he realized the current situation in an instant.
{Zhenfei, Qianhua, Miko, don’t speak in a way other than the spiritual link. Quickly remind Kaguya and Hayasaka not to speak in a way other than the spiritual link! Get away from the me you see now, now! }
Gao Hai said loudly in the spiritual link.
Then, in front of him, the true concubine was stunned for a moment, and then asked:
"Why do you suddenly speak so loudly, Haijun? And stay away from you, wait, why do you have to stay away from you?!"
