Secret Notes of a Mystery Investigator

Chapter 84
Director Yan said: "You are not mistaken at all. This tree does grow on the gravel beach. According to the comrades of the local environmental management unit, the appearance of this tree is very strange. It is impossible for there to be plants on the gravel beach." It grows, the reason is very simple, I will not explain in detail, this tree appeared out of thin air, and its roots grow outside, that is to say, it firmly fixes itself on the gravel beach On the surface, it can survive by absorbing moisture from the air."

Tie Weifeng said: "Director Yan, do you want to tell us that this plant is miraculous, or do you want to say that there is a mystery hidden in it?"

Director Yan ignored him, and continued to find a photo, and saw that there was a strange smiling face on the front of the willow tree. Although the texture on the brown bark was not very clear, but because the camera equipment had a high resolution, Everyone can still roughly see the facial features on this smiling face, and everyone is amazed.

Director Yan said: "This is a very incredible phenomenon. Originally, the work of investigating mysterious incidents is not our scope, but everyone should know our responsibilities, especially since the principal asked to undertake this matter on his own initiative, so we must do it. it is good."

At this time, a wretched-looking man said: "The principal will intervene in the affairs of 199, why?"

Director Yan said: "Each of you should know it in your heart." After saying this, everyone fell silent, and even Tie Weifeng frowned and began to meditate.

2. The Dark Wizard

Director Yan looked at everyone's expressions, clapped his hands and said: "Don't make the atmosphere so serious, what should come will always come, don't you have the courage to face it? I don't believe that we will lose to anyone in this world. "

Tie Weifeng said: "Your wishes are good, but there is one thing, we don't have the slightest understanding of either party. What is the basis for your words?"

Director Yan said: "My basis is that I haven't seen the appearance of any heroes so far. In addition, I can't question the principal, but I think it is impossible for anyone to make judgments on every matter. It's all accurate, but what we have to do now is to investigate this strange willow tree, that's all."

Tie Weifeng said: "Then when shall we set off, and which comrades will be in charge?"

Director Yan said: "This operation is under my unified command. Tie Weifeng, Li Dongxu, Han Chengyang, and Wang Yu are members of the operation team. They will set off immediately this afternoon. Do you have any comments?"

Seeing that no one spoke, Director Yan immediately asked people to go back to prepare. When she was going out, Tie Weifeng stopped her and said, "What did the principal say? Is the matter serious?"

Director Yan said: "The principal didn't tell me whether it was serious, but he said that time is running out, let us investigate this matter immediately."

Tie Weifeng said: "Lizi..."

Yan Chu said with a straight face: "What did you say?"

Tie Weifeng said: "Yes, I was wrong, Director Yan, based on your experience, how likely is it that this matter is related to the matter we have been investigating?"

Director Yan said: "It's not my way to just evaluate something that hasn't been investigated clearly. If you are really curious about these things, then if you do a good job in the investigation, everything will be clear in the open, and you won't have to worry about it." You are curious."

Tie Weifeng said: "Now a Sky Spirit Clan has ruined my life. If what the principal said is true, I can ask for a salary increase."

Director Yan rolled his eyes at him, and went out. Tie Weifeng chased him all the way and said, "Wait for me, you haven't eaten yet."

In the afternoon, the five people had already sat on the train to Jilin, and they had traveled more than 1000 kilometers for more than ten hours. When they arrived at the destination Fusong County, it was already midnight. This is the foot of Changbai Mountain. Although the majestic mountain is surrounded by the night, it is still clearly visible, and the mountain top is illuminated by a bright moon, and the white snow slope is even more clearly visible.

Tie Weifeng said: "Aren't you going to climb the mountain in the middle of the night?"

Director Yan said: "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and find a hotel to sleep in, and gather at seven o'clock tomorrow morning."

The next morning, all the team members walked out of the gate of a small hotel with swollen eyes. Chief Yan was wearing a pair of sunglasses, obviously afraid that others would see his eyes. Wear sunglasses."

Tie Weifeng was the first one who couldn't help it, burst out laughing, Director Yan said: "Be serious, it's working time now."

The rest of the people did not respond. Everyone carried the tools they might need and set off to the mountain. Changbai Mountain is a famous tourist attraction. There are many tourists along the way. Chief Yan took out the map with the target objects and said: "Look Do you have any opinion as to where this willow tree is?"

Tie Weifeng said: "It's obvious at a glance. The tree can't be walked up by itself, but the location is very remote, and they are all close to the top of the mountain. The natural environment there is not a place where willow trees can grow. I think the reason is obvious. It’s something a group of people with ulterior motives did.”

Old Li Han smiled and said: "Here, Tie Zi has the best brains, but he is also the most undisciplined."

Tie Weifeng smiled and said: "Brother Li, praise if you want, don't hurt me without saying a few words, it's not kind to do so."

Director Yan said: "I also agree with Xiaotie's opinion, so everyone must be careful."

Each of these five people's ability is far beyond ordinary people. For the fast mountain climbing that is difficult for ordinary people, these five people climbed up at super speed. So the local landform is very magical. Surrounded by snow, many hot springs are steaming. It stands to reason that such geological conditions are difficult to grow plants, because the hot springs contain sulfur, but the willow tree with a smiling face is very It grows robustly next to the hot spring which is still a certain distance from Tianchi, where there are few people, and where the willow grows, the ground is full of black roots.

Lao Li took out a magnifying glass, carefully observed the trunk of the tree, and said after a while: "It's so strange, this smiling face is so human-like, and it is definitely grown naturally, not artificially carved, because The surrounding bark is intact without any damage."

Tie Weifeng said: "Why don't we come here? Since we are here, isn't it just to investigate strange things?"

Director Yan said, "Do you have your own opinions?"

Tie Weifeng said: "If you don't do this, you don't know Brother Chen's difficulties. You said how did he investigate so many weird cases?"

Director Yan said: "Of course he is smart, the principal thinks highly of him."

Tie Weifeng said: "You mean I'm not smart anymore?"

Director Yan said: "You should know how you are, and the gap between you and Brother Chen is all-round."

Tie Weifeng said: "I also admit what you said, but there is one thing. I told the principal about Brother Chen's accident and asked him what to do. Guess what the principal said? He said that there is no time to deal with this matter for the time being. Let us Do other things first."

Director Yan said: "Why, do you doubt the principal?"

Tie Weifeng said with a straight face: "Who dares to say that I doubt the principal?"

Director Yan said: "Then it's over. Since you don't doubt the principal, then do what you should do well."

Before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly let out a meow, and saw a burst of blue light shooting out from a fault in the mountain not far away. It turned out to be a huge blue cat. Although it was huge in size, its speed was jaw-dropping. Lao Li pressed under his body, and opened his mouth to bite Lao Li's neck. Suddenly, Lao Li's body became smooth and flickering. The blue cat bit his neck, screamed, and jumped up. Lao Li stretched out his hand and punched him. Hitting it on the waist, the giant cat flew upside down immediately, fell to the ground and rolled over a dozen times before falling into the water with a plop.

The five people were still in shock, Tie Weifeng said: "Fuck, if it wasn't for Lao Li, any one of us, this neck would have been broken long ago."

While talking, a series of bubbles popped out of the place where the Gu cat fell into, and then a large piece of red blood gushed up, and after a while, a pair of crocodile-like eyes floated out of the lake, motionless Staring at the few people next to the tree.

Lao Li got up from the ground and said: "It was indeed too dangerous just now, what is that? Is there such a big cat?

Director Yan said: "Yes, I saw this cat... In the middle of speaking, her face suddenly changed, then she raised her head, sniffed the air a few times, and suddenly turned her head to look at the huge Tianchi, but saw Nothing happened on the calm lake.

She pointed to Tianchi and said, "There is something in there."

The other four people immediately became vigilant, and the five walked cautiously towards the lake. When they reached the shore, they saw a strange blue light in the lake, which was so calm that not even a single ripple could be seen. status.

Tie Weifeng said: "What did you find?"

Director Yan said: "I don't know, but I did smell a very strange smell just now, and it definitely can't be a mistake of my nose."

Tie Weifeng said: "I thought something was wrong, it turned out to be such an unexpected thing." After saying that, he turned and walked back, when the five people returned to the tree again and turned their backs to the lake, they carefully studied the "smiling face" , at this moment, suddenly the lake water splashed softly, and a huge shadow swam towards the distance, and no one noticed all this.

The five people couldn't find the right way to investigate. After being disappointed, Tie Weifeng took out a cigarette and sat down and was about to light it. Suddenly, his eyes widened and the other four were busy with other things. Tie Weifeng said: "Comrades, please tell me Turn back."

Everyone turned around and were also stunned, only to see that the cat that fell into the water was already on the shore at this time. The difference from before was that the flesh on the cat was gone, only a pile of white flowers remained. Bones, and the bones are neatly stacked, conical from top to bottom, and the top one is the cat's skull.

Director Yan said: "I didn't judge wrong just now, there is indeed something in Tianchi."

Before the words finished, only an old voice said: "Who are you?"

Everyone looked around, only to see an old man with fine bones appearing on a big rock not far away with a medicine basket on his back.

Director Yan said: "We are tourists who come here for tourism, and we are attracted by this strange tree. Does the old man know the cause of this tree?"

The old man smiled mysteriously and said, "Since you don't know anything, and I don't know anything, let's just treat each other as strangers."

After finishing speaking, he walked over slowly with a bamboo stick, passed through the place where everyone was, and continued on. Director Yan hurriedly said: "Old man, wait a moment."

The old man stopped in his tracks, turned around and smiled at them, "Why, what did you remember?"

Director Yan thought for a while and said: "I was really not honest enough just now. We are not tourists, but investigators. We came here to conduct investigations."

The old man nodded slightly and said: "The old man has lived for so many years, and I can't be convinced by just a few words, but I have never seen any investigator who can go up the mountain from this road. It's a steep mountain road, ordinary people can't climb it at all, and it's really not easy for you."

Director Yan said: "You have always looked carefully enough, the fact is so, we came here for this strange tree, but we didn't find anything, and found some more strange phenomena, it seems that if there is no With the help of an expert, things are going to be very difficult.”

The old man narrowed his eyes, looked at the lake subconsciously and said, "What strange phenomenon did you see?"

Director Yan said: "It's the pile of cat bones. I suspect that there are some kind of large aquatic creatures with certain intelligence in Tianchi."

The old man said: "As investigators, do you have the consciousness to sacrifice at any time?"

After hearing these words, the five people looked at each other, and Tie Weifeng said: "What the hell are you talking about, you old man with yin and yang? I don't believe you god sticks, you gods."

Director Yan said: "Tie Weifeng, your task now is to keep your mouth shut."

The old man didn't seem to care about his words, and said with a smile on his face: "It's good luck for you to wait until I'm here. If you really want to understand this matter, you should know the key point."

Director Yan said: "Then can the old man give us some advice?"

The old man said: "Since I didn't avoid you, I naturally wanted to help you. The key is can you believe it?"

Director Yan said without the slightest hesitation: "If I don't believe you, I won't waste this tongue."

The old man nodded in satisfaction and said, "Very good. Only those with a big heart can achieve great things. No wonder you are a girl but can lead such big men."

Director Yan said: "You are over-rewarded."

The old man said: "Let me tell you who I am first. There is a village in Changbai Mountain called: Hulugu. I am the head of the clan there. The people in the village are all my junior dolls. So when I am free, I like to go out alone. Go shopping, pick some Chinese herbs, I found this tree here about three months ago, and honestly from the first moment I saw this tree, I knew something big was going to happen, because I knew it was A very sinister sorcery."

Director Yan said: "You mean this tree has been bewitched?"

The old man said: "That's right, the little old man has been practicing witchcraft since he was four years old. He has been practicing witchcraft for 80 years. What kind of alchemy has never been seen before? But this kind of witchcraft has never been seen before. Willow trees and even shade trees It is a legendary ghost tree, and using it as a Gu itself is extremely dangerous. In addition, there is a golden blood jar hidden inside it. This is an evil method that even dark magic is forbidden to use, so we can see what kind of magic it is.

Director Yan said: "But what kind of person would use this kind of Gu technique?"

The old man said: "Of course it is a dark wizard. Although dark magic is forbidden to use this kind of magic, it does not mean that no one will use it. On the contrary, many dark wizards are practicing this kind of magic."

Director Yan said: "But how do you know this?"

The old man said with a smile: "I said, I am a wizard, and I am a dark wizard."

Hearing this, the five members of the action team immediately became vigilant, and the old man laughed and said, "There's no need to be so careful. The old man has already reached the age of waiting to die, so he doesn't have the leisure time to be an enemy. This vicious Gu has nothing to do with me." .”

Director Yan said: "But why is it such a coincidence that the Gu planter happened to plant it in the residence of a group of dark wizards?"

The old man said: "This reason should not be difficult to understand. Dark wizards have the same vision when they choose places to plant Gu."

Director Yan said: "You mean, this place is suitable for the practice of dark magic."

The old man said: "That's right, for dark magic, this is a treasure land of feng shui, any dark wizard will get twice the result with half the effort here, look at the fish in Tianchi, many of them have become vicious, why? It is because they have swallowed too many corpses and tasted human beings, so they are naturally murderous, and the birds here often scrape the clods on the graves, trying to throw the graves away and eat the corpses inside, From these two points, you should be able to see that this place is a very dangerous place, so wouldn't it be reasonable for the dark wizard to come here to practice evil methods?"

Director Yan said: "Then how can you tolerate these dark wizards who are practicing on your territory?"

The old man waved his hand and said: "The old man is too old to be competitive, not to mention we are just a group of outsiders, but the gold bottle blood jar is indeed too dangerous, although I don't know what kind of person did this, but I don't agree with him doing this thing, and I come and go here these days, just hoping to see the true master."

Director Yan said: "But have you seen it?"

The old man said: "No, but you can easily knock down the Gu cat. In terms of strength, I know that you are not ordinary people, it seems that it will help me, so since I have your help, I want to break this fierce Gu. "

Tie Weifeng said: "What is a golden bottle blood jar?"

The old man smiled and said: "You will know when I break it, but this matter is extremely risky, and I can understand if you are not willing to take risks."
