Chapter 712 The Village Chief Is Back [5000 Monthly Vote Please]
The place Lin Mo wants to go is Guimen Village.
The place where he is is relatively close to Guimen Village, and he has already been here. Why don't he go back and have a look? After all, Lin Mo is the head of Guimen Village.
Thinking about the last time he dealt with the Guimen Village incident, it was a few months ago, but it feels like a long time has passed.
Drive there.
Because Guimen Village is a "dangerous place" that has been recorded in the archives, special sentries were set up outside to keep an eye on the situation in Guimen Village.
Occasionally, experts from the General Administration stationed here will enter the village to check out the situation.
Of course, except for special experts, anyone who wants to enter Guimen Village will be very nervous and trembling.
There is nothing I can do, this village is too scary.
Not to mention that there is no living person, there are all kinds of terrifying evil ghosts and resentful spirits. Anyway, going there is a great test of one's courage.
Therefore, if nothing happens, the general administration personnel stationed outside the village will not go in.
It's just terrifying, but the many ghosts and nightmares in Guimen Village are very abiding by the rules. They will never step out of the village, nor will they attack the members of the expert team from the General Administration who come in to investigate.
Scare is a common thing.
But this kind of thing is not life-threatening.
So over time, the sentries in Guimen Village began to slowly transition from senior expert team members to half senior experts, half new experts, and even some alternate experts came over for training.
The so-called experience is to practice courage.
Guimen Village is an excellent location, scary and without any real danger. If it weren't for the disapproval from above, some senior experts would want to build this place into a training base.
Today, a group of new and candidate experts happened to come to practice, preparing to enter the village to gain experience.
The pre-experience meeting was held in a conference room in the real world.
Outside Guimen Village, many temporary buildings have been built, including not only wooden houses, but also several dark green marching tents.
The electricity and communications have been fully repaired within a few months. It is not an exaggeration to say that this place is a base.
"Okay, are everyone aware of the rules and precautions?" A senior expert said on the stage.
Below, more than thirty new and candidate experts all responded in unison: "It's clear!"
"Okay then, go to your respective dormitories and fall asleep. We will gather at the door in five minutes and enter Guimen Village."
"yes!"
Many new and alternate experts are excited.
They were all selected from the many candidates in Qianlong City, and there was a saying that had long been circulated in their circles.
To see if you are an elite among experts, you need to have the opportunity to go to Guimen Village for training.
Only those who can go will be valued by the higher authorities.
So at this moment, they only have expectations and pride in their hearts.
Of course some people are nervous.
After all, Guimen Village is very close to Qianlong City. Some of the horrific incidents that happened here have spread to some extent. After some people add fuel to the fire, it is inevitable that this place will be said to be very weird.
If you have never been here, after experiencing so many rumors, you will always have your own reveries about this mysterious place.
Some people are nervous, and some people must be disapproving.
And there are many people who don’t take it seriously.
These thirty people gathered in their dreams with various moods, and then followed three senior experts into the territory of Guimen Village.
Not long after they left, Lin Mo drove there.
He came to Guimen Village simply to catch up with his old friends and see his cheap godson. If possible, he would take the ghost baby away.
The reason is simple. After experiencing some previous things, Lin Mo urgently needs to improve his combat effectiveness.
Studying the art of paper man is only one of the ways for him to improve his strength.
After that, he had to complete the curse sequence on his own yellow paper.
But these alone are not enough.
External forces also need to be strengthened.
Xiaoyu is undergoing her fourth transformation, and after waking up, her strength will definitely reach a higher level; and this time Lin Mo also abducted Sister Yue. If possible, Lin Mo hopes to abduct her for a while longer.
But Sister Yue has a very good character and is not too obedient.
When it comes to obedience, of course children are the most obedient.
So Lin Mo thought of the ghost baby in Guimen Village, whom he recognized as his godson at that time. Now that his godfather needed help, of course the godson had to help.
So Lin Mo came.
It turned out that the original outpost had turned into a station, which was not much different from a regular base.
However, three senior experts stationed here led a team into the village for training, leaving only a few ordinary staff. They didn't know Lin Mo's details, but they had the certificate from the General Administration, so they didn't dare to stop him.
"You mean, Guimen Village has now become a training ground?" Lin Mo was stunned.
The staff over there nodded.
"Isn't this nonsense?" Lin Mo frowned.
I don’t know who came up with this bad idea.
The reason why Guimen Village is safe is because he and Zhang and the others have discussed it, and the villagers don't want to come out, so they are safe.
But this does not mean that the name of the village in Guimen Village is easy to describe.
That's a village of ghosts.
With resentment, malice and hatred, this can cause big trouble if you are not careful.
Of course, Lin Mo also knew that even if the General Administration went too far, the villagers would not really mess around, but a small conflict was still possible.
What Lin Mo is afraid of is that a small conflict will turn into a big conflict. If some ignorant people fan the flames and anger other villagers, it doesn't matter. Once Zhang is angered, it will be a big problem.
But these are also Lin Mo's extreme imagination.
He also knew that what he was worried about would only appear in extreme circumstances.
Moreover, this is not the first time that people have been sent in here for training, and nothing happened before. From this point of view, we know that the expert team of the General Administration also understands the rules and has not violated the taboos of the villagers.
"Come on, I'd better do my business first. If it's a big deal, I'll talk to Professor Xie and the director when I get the chance, and ask them to restrain the people below."
Lin Mo thought of this and found a place to fall asleep.
Soon, through the fog, we arrived at the entrance of Guimen Village.
After not coming for a long time, Lin Mo felt a little emotional when he saw the big tree with a crooked neck at the entrance of the village, the wooden bridge, the flowing water, and the outline of the houses in the distance.
The most careful calculation shows that the last time I came here was more than half a year ago.
"I don't know if everyone misses me."
I was intoxicated with myself when I suddenly heard a shrill scream from afar.
"ah!"
"This, this is human skin."
There was a pop.
"Ah, Xiao Li was dragged into the river by a ghost, please save him quickly."
Then, there was chaos.
Lin Mo was stunned after hearing this.
Come to think of it, it must be someone who came in for training before.
From the sound, it sounds like something happened. Someone fell into the water? Or was he dragged down by ghosts? Logically speaking, it shouldn't be the case, so Lin Mo decided to go over and have a look to make sure nothing really happened.
So he walked a few steps quickly,
There was a large group of people standing next to a small river in front of them. They seemed to be new and candidate experts who had come in for training. Some of them were stroking their chests, while others were nervously fishing by the river, not knowing what they were fishing for.
If you look carefully, you can see a wooden basin next to a large bluestone by the river, which seems to have washed clothes.
But look again, there are no clothes there, but horrible pieces of human skin.
But when Lin Mo saw this human skin, he thought of the farm lady who used to wash clothes by the river.
Someone noticed Lin Mo.
"Who are you?"
"Sneaky, arrest him first. Maybe this guy is the same as the ghost just now."
several people shouted.
Lin Mo asked them if they were alternate experts.
"how do you know?"
Those people were stunned.
At this moment, a man came over. After seeing Lin Mo clearly, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Expert Lin, why are you here?"
He immediately ran over to shake hands.
When Lin Mo saw it, he looked familiar. He seemed to have participated in the training camp at the same time as himself, and he should be considered a senior expert by now.
The other party's surname seems to be Wu.
Lin Mo forgot his specific name, but he remembered that the other person had a big mouth and buck teeth, so he was called Wu Daya at that time.
After asking carefully, the other party was really one of the senior experts leading the team.
Because there were two other senior experts, Wu Daya quickly introduced them.
The students next to me were confused, but some of them responded quickly.
"Expert Lin, Lin Mo, I remember, it's him..."
Lin Mo is definitely a celebrity in the General Administration.
The main reason is that he has dealt with too many strange incidents, and he has received awards from the General Administration twice, which is an achievement that few people can achieve. It is said that Lin Mo's photo and introduction are hung on the corridor wall of the academy established by the General Administration.
"Expert Lin doesn't look like the one in the photo." A female student muttered.
"Why don't they look alike? Now that I look at them, they look more and more like each other."
"It really is."
Not to mention these chattering students, Lin Mo only found out what happened just now after asking Wu Daya and the others.
Just when their group entered the village, they saw an aunt washing clothes by the river.
The new students don't know it, but senior experts like Wu Daya understand that this aunt is a ghost villager in Guimen Village.
It's just right, let's practice the students' courage here first.
So I arranged for a practitioner named Xiao Li to go over and ask for directions.
But no one expected that Xiao Li didn't know what he said to the ghost aunt, but he actually made her angry. The ghost aunt suddenly became angry, jumped into the water, and dragged Xiao Li in.
This is what happened.
Lin Mo also understood.
He walked to the river, looked at it, smiled, and then patted the water.
"Widow Liu, what are you doing squatting in the river?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a splash in the water. Widow Liu popped her head out of the water and looked at Lin Mo with some surprise.
"Village chief, are you back?"
"Well, I happened to be passing by, so I came back to take a look." Lin Mo took a look and found that it was indeed Widow Liu who likes to wash human skin.
The other party was holding a person in his hand. He didn't care about it at the moment and threw him directly onto the shore. As expected, it was Xiao Li who had made a "rude" comment just now.
At this moment, Xiao Li was already numb with fear.
Not only was he full of water, but he was also a little confused.
Fortunately, Widow Liu only punished him briefly and did not kill Xiao Li. If Widow Liu had murderous intentions, Xiao Li would have died long ago.
Of course Lin Mo would not pursue this matter with Widow Liu.
Since it is an experience, the success or failure of practice depends on the luck of these students. Who gives you nothing to do but provoke Widow Liu? If you don't provoke Widow Liu, others will not drag you into trouble.
At this moment, who cares about Xiao Li?
Widow Liu hugged the basin and ran happily to the village. As she ran, she shouted: "The village chief is back. Everyone, come out quickly. The village chief is back."
The sound was so sharp that the whole village could hear it.
Wu Daya and others behind him also looked confused.
They obviously didn't know that Lin Mo was the head of Guimen Village.
"Let's go and take a look."
Wu Daya felt that this was an opportunity to give the students some insights, so he took more than 30 students into Guimen Village.
"Hey, Lao Wu, I feel something is wrong." A senior expert said: "We have come to this Guimen Village often before, but why does it feel different this time?"
When they came here before, Guimen Village was quiet. Occasionally they could meet some scary villagers, but most of them were too lazy to pay attention to outsiders like them.
So the villagers did whatever they were supposed to do, and the whole village was quiet most of the time.
It's like a puddle of still water, smooth and steady with no fluctuations.
But this time when we entered the village, the situation was completely different from before.
It was still water before, now it is boiling water.
The originally quiet Guimen Village became completely lively at this moment. Of course, this excitement was only in Lin Mo's eyes. In the eyes of Wu Daya and others, it was terrifying.
Extreme terror.
The scary ghost villagers came out of the houses one by one.
Some climbed out of the well, and some came down from the trees.
The resentment over there is soaring, the faces here are full of viciousness, there are people with broken arms and legs, people who have been hanged, people who have been drowned, people who have starved to death, it's all a mess.
The most frightening thing was a ghost whose upper body was in pieces, like a huge tree crown. The body was broken into pieces of flesh, and blood vessels connected these fragmented limbs in series, making it look like a lush tree.
Those who can be selected by the General Administration are considered to be courageous and elite students with potential.
But the current situation in Guimen Village cannot be resisted by even the elite students.
Half of the students' legs were weak, and the other half wanted to leave now.
But it’s hard to leave now.
There were also various villagers behind, completely blocking the road. Among them, a group of little ghosts were running around with weird smiles and shouting: "You are friends of the village chief, why didn't you bring any candy? Why didn't you bring any candy?" sugar."
Several female students were so frightened that they cried.
They had never seen this scene before.
Mainly affected by the grievances of the villagers, those who are not mentally strong can easily fall into fear, and they will fall deeper and deeper into fear, unable to extricate themselves.
In fact, the scariest thing is yet to come.
Blah blah blah!
The river behind them surged, and at this moment, all the villagers became quiet and honest.
The terrifying oppressive force also emerged from the river and swept over him.
I saw a scary woman pulling a child about two or three years old, suddenly appearing by the river.
Then it twisted, disappeared, and reappeared, already at the entrance of the village, twisted, disappeared again, and finally appeared among the crowd.
The villagers did not dare to say anything. Wu Daya and his three senior experts, including the more than thirty students, also froze. They did not dare to look at this woman at all.
In fact, what is even more terrifying is the two or three-year-old child in the woman's hand.
What kind of kid is this? He is the most terrifying ghost.
Covered in bruises and with dark eyes, a student took a curious look, wailed, and fell to the ground.
At this moment, the fear of death enveloped all the students.
It wasn't until this moment that they understood the horror of the nightmare world. Many of them have never seen real horror, but because of their intelligence, talent and ability, they got the opportunity to become experts of the General Administration and became students in their studies.
They have also experienced some actual combat in the past.
But the nightmares I encountered back then were simply not on the same level as the women and children now.
Fear directly destroyed all their previous pride and confidence.
But from a certain perspective, it might still be a good thing.
As the saying goes, only by experiencing hardship can we grow.
That's what Lin Mo thought.
So he remained silent and watched the students collapse among the many villagers.
You can't just ignore it all the time.
It won't work if I'm really scared.
"Aunt Zhang, long time no see. You are much younger than the last time I saw you."
Lin Mo walked over with a smile.
The woman walking up from the river glanced at Lin Mo.
"Why don't you say hello first when you come back?" Ms. Zhang said. She usually doesn't show up in the village, mainly because the villagers are afraid of her.
Besides, she doesn't like that kind of excitement.
If Lin Mo hadn't come back this time, she wouldn't have come out of the river.
"Doudou, your dad is back, why don't you call him dad?" Mrs. Zhang lowered her head and said to the scary kid she was holding.
The purple-covered child looked at Lin Mo, sniffed it, and then softly called daddy.
"Doudou?" Lin Mo was surprised: "It's only been a few months since we last met, and you've grown so big?"
In fact, Lin Mo had seen this kid since just now, but he didn't dare to recognize it.
This little kid was just born a few months ago, and now he looks three years old.
What do you eat to grow so fast?
Hearing Lin Mo's voice, Doudou was obviously very happy. It broke away from Zhang's hand and climbed into Lin Mo's arms in an instant.
It felt like teleportation.
Lin Mo hugged Doudou and could feel the coldness on the child's body.
It can be said that Doudou is a born A+-level nightmare, and the terrifying resentment and malice gathered in him are the most powerful Lin Mo has ever seen.
In addition, Lin Mo is also very discerning now. He can feel that Doudou should be a taboo ghost.
But he still had to explore the specific taboos.
"dad!"
"Why!"
"Daddy, sugar!"
"Uh, I almost forgot!"
Lin Mo slapped his forehead. Fortunately, he was prepared. He took out a piece of candy from his arms and stuffed it into Doudou's hand.
When he left last time, Lin Mo promised Doudou that he would bring sweets to Doudou the next time he came back.
Unexpectedly, this little guy actually remembered it all the time.
"Doudou, I have other gifts."
Lin Mo really liked this child now. He hugged Doudou, found his cardboard box, took the hamster out of it, and stuffed it into Doudou's arms.
"I gave it to you, do you like it?"
"like!"
Doudou's big dark eyes stared at the hamster, and the hamster was so frightened that his whole body was twitching, as if he had a cerebral thrombosis.
