The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 94 The reason
I have a strong premonition that he is Wang Aiguo.

But I can't figure out why he refuses to admit his identity.

Could it be that he had concerns because he became a snake man?However, Wang Aiguo should have seen Wang Zehai's previous reaction. Wang Zehai is also well-informed and does not belong to the "ordinary people" I mentioned before. Even if he really becomes a snake man, it is not impossible to recognize .

What concerns does he have?
In Wang Zehai's description, Wang Aiguo and his mother are very affectionate. Many families in those days were still in arranged marriages, but they were in free love. Moreover, Miss Gaomen married a poor scholar, just like the bridge in the playbook. same paragraph.

The two are so in love, how can Wang Aiguo bear not to see his lover for the last time?
Is this snake man really not Wang Aiguo, or is there something unspeakable about him.

I watched the action of the snake man wiping his tears, and my heart felt sour. I said to Zhou Xuanye: "Brother Zhou, I think he must have some difficulties. Let's leave like this. Is he dying of old age alone in this place?"

Zhou Xuanye sighed, and said, "Even if you want to help, you have to find out the root of the problem."

Where is the root of this problem?
I thought of a very abnormal thing, that is, why did he become half-human and half-snake, instead of completely turning into a snake-man like Ai Yongjun?Perhaps, this is the source of the problem?It's a pity that he doesn't want to talk about it, he doesn't want to admit it, no matter how much we think about it, it's in vain.

The three of us were originally hired by Wang Zehai, and now the boss has issued an order to retreat, so why are we still here?

In the end, when I looked back, I could only see a vague figure.Wang Zehai was panting heavily, feeling very bad.On the way back, everything was uneventful and we parted at the airport.

To be precise, he broke up with Han Zitong and Han Xu, who belonged to BJ. Wang Zehai's headquarters is in Shenzhen, and this time he decided to return to Shenzhen to guard his mother.

Chai Kuan was escorted home by Wang Zehai, and we originally planned to send the mummy to the police station for verification, but with Chai Kuan around, we saved this step and he took the mummy away.Qiu Huangxi’s companion, that is, the one we buried named Bao Yongzhuan, was taken to the local police station on camels. We only said that he was a victim we met in the desert. Because Zhou Xuanye cast a spell before, the body was seen. It looks very fresh, not like it has been dead for several days.

After all this was done, we went back to the office, took a quick shower, and I went directly to the hospital for treatment that afternoon. Of course, this was considered a work-related injury

I originally thought that the matter of Wang Zehai would end here, and that some things in life may not be all perfect.Just like what Tan Ren said, this is the first half-finished job he took over, and it just ruined the brand of Tan Xuan's office.

But I didn't expect that on the third day after being hospitalized, Wang Zehai came to see me with his things.In addition to flowers and a fruit basket, he also carried something in his hand.It was an old black notebook.

Wang Zehai's eyes were a little red, and he asked me, "Brother, how is the injury?"

I said, "He's recovering well. Brother Wang... Is something wrong? Is Auntie okay?" He looked like he had cried. What could make a man who is almost 50 years old cry?I thought, maybe something happened to his mother?

Wang Zehai said: "Everything is fine. Take a look at this, it was sent by Han Zitong, it just arrived in the morning." Then he handed me the notebook.

When I opened the first page of the notebook, there was a name on the cover page, and the words Wang Aiguo were written with a straight and strong pen.

I was very surprised and said, "Han Zitong sent it to you?"

Why does Han Zitong have Wang Aiguo's notebook in his hand?

Wang Zehai nodded, and said with a wry smile: "She said that she found it in Han Xu's backpack, but when I asked Han Xu, he didn't know about it himself. So this notebook, probably 'he' secretly put it in It's in Han Xu's backpack." The him Wang Zehai mentioned was naturally the snake man.

That snake man actually stuffed Han Xu with such a thing without our knowledge?

its not right.

At that time, there was no place to put things on the snake man, so where did he hide the notebook in the first place?
The next moment, I remembered his animal skin quiver.

Damn, why didn't we search it back then!This notebook is probably hidden in the quiver.

What was his purpose in handing this notebook to Han Xu?
A lot of questions were circling in my mind, but judging by Wang Zehai's expression, there must be something bad recorded in this notebook.I lay on the hospital bed and started to read down the notes.

This is a densely packed notebook with tiny prints. It is almost full of writing from the beginning to the end. For people with poor eyesight, it may seem quite laborious.The words on this note were written with pen and ink in the early stage, but later turned into light red handwriting. It seems that the ink was used up and written with some kind of paint. The pen is no longer a fountain pen, but it seems to be written with a small A wooden stick, dipped in red paint and written on it.

There are a lot of notes, but I stayed in the hospital and had nothing to do, so I patiently read it from beginning to end.This is a diary, the first third of which mainly records work and life, and the middle two-thirds of it tells a large area of ​​a kind of loneliness, the loneliness of living in the desert, and there is a sentence in it that makes me feel Deep: I want to go home.

But the content in the middle is very abrupt. If people who don't know read it, they probably don't know why he is lonely.

The remaining third is about the text that Wang Aiguo began to organize after he calmed down and got used to the loneliness. This text also let me understand the cause, process and result of the whole thing.

We all know the cause, geological investigation.

During the investigation, they found some sulfur stones, and they were not natural sulfur stones, but more like artificially polished sulfur stones.Just as the saying goes that calligraphy and painting are not separated from each other, geological work and archaeological work are like two brothers, and they are not separated from each other.

The appearance of artificially polished sulfur stones shows that this desert was once inhabited.How did people survive at that time?What was the geological environment like at that time?What was the subsequent geological change process?These problems led the expedition team to trace the source of sulfur stone.

They entered the underground shrine, and the experience in the middle was really thrilling. I saw it from the beginning to the end, just like reading an adventure novel.But these processes have little to do with what happened later, so I won't show them for the time being.

The later experience was very similar to that of Chai Kuan and others. When they broke into the golden spring, they were attacked by the big green python, but the person who was attacked this time was bitten into the neck. It is Wang Aiguo.

At that moment, he should have died. During that time, he didn't have any memory.

He didn't know why he suddenly regained his memory, and when he began to regain consciousness, he gradually remembered what happened later.He remembered that he had turned into a snake man, and killed his fleeing teammates one by one... one by one, alive.

Blood flowed down their necks and covered their bodies. Everyone struggled hard before dying, and the fearful eyes of their companions remained forever in Wang Aiguo's mind.

He stroked his scaly face, besides the pain, despair and fear, he also had one thought, revenge!

No matter what, he wanted to destroy that thing and not allow it to harm other people.

During this process, Wang Aiguo gradually discovered that the big snake seemed to have suffered some kind of injury, and could only hide in the mouth of the golden spring, and the farthest place it could reach was just the sacrificial venue.This thing can't go out to harm people, which is Wang Aiguo's greatest comfort.

He thought about whether he should report this situation to the police.

No matter how powerful that thing is, it probably can't match a bomb above it.

But, what kind of identity should I report to?People at that time were quite stuffy in their thinking, and the lingering aftertaste of sex has never faded. The people above have always severely cracked down on talk about ghosts, gods and monsters.

With this look on his face, tell them that there is a snake demon harming people?

This situation, not to mention more than 40 years ago, is difficult to deal with even now.

Therefore, Wang Aiguo chose to stay in that place, thinking about how to kill the snake demon.In the past 40 years, he has transformed from a geologist to a biological engineer, using all the knowledge he knows to travel between the oasis and the ruins of Huangchao, and survived tenaciously.

These 40 years were enough for him to find the weakness of that snake demon.

What supported him was the temporary death of all his teammates. Each face, like a sculpture, was carved into the depths of his soul and was indelible.

He had found a way to deal with the Basilisk, but it was a tactic that killed both.

I think that the reason why Wang Aiguo is unwilling to recognize Wang Zehai may be because he hopes that the father in his son's mind will always be the missing geology professor, not a monster that killed everyone.
