Shanhai Folklore Research Institute

"You, go and distract the man on duty." Jin Daqiang winked at Hou San.

Hou San hesitated, Jin Daqiang said again: "You just need to lure him away, you don't need to do anything else, just leave it to our three brothers."

This matter was not difficult for Hou San, for the sake of money, he risked it all.

Hou San tore a piece of cloth from his clothes to cover his head and face, exposing only his eyes, and walked directly towards the small warehouse from the shadows.

The archaeologists on duty didn't notice him at first, and when someone approached, they asked loudly, "What do you do?"

Without saying a word, Hou San kicked him, and then ran away.

"?!" The archaeologist was stunned. Where did he come from a neuropathy, but he kept his duty firmly in mind, so he rubbed his knees and sat on the chair without moving.

Hou San was a little anxious, and looked at the place where Jin Daqiang and the others were hiding, and the three made a cheering gesture to him.

Hou San made persistent efforts, picked up a handful of gravel from the ground, and threw them one by one on the foreheads of the archaeologists.

Archaeologist:? ? ?I have a bad temper!

Watching the archaeological team members chasing up, Hou San wiped the oily sweat off his neck and started to run wildly.

It is also a technical job to lure people away. You can't run too slowly, you will be caught up, and you can't run too fast, if you stop chasing too fast, what should you do if you go back and continue guarding the warehouse?

The highest state is to catch the other party not too far and not too close, and Hou San feels that he is doing pretty well.

There was no moon tonight, and the surroundings were pitch black. He looked at the time and guessed that Jin Daqiang's side was almost there. Hou San quickened his pace, turned around and left the archaeological team, and returned to the pickup truck out of breath.

Hou San squatted on a big rock and smoked a cigarette to calm himself down. After a while, he saw Jin Daqiang, Ma Gan and Fatty running over carrying a big guy. He immediately cheered up and climbed into the driver's seat to start the car.

"Brother Daqiang, what did you take?" Hou San was curious. Jin Daqiang was sitting in the passenger seat, and the big guy was put into the truck, and Ma Gan and Fatty watched.

"Good stuff!" Jin Daqiang was mysterious, showing his yellow teeth in a smile.

Hou San saw that he didn't answer directly, so he didn't ask any more questions, anyway, as long as he didn't have a lot of his share.

The pickup truck drove back to the motel, and the stick and the fat man carefully moved the stuff out of the truck. Hou San took the opportunity to glance at it, and it was so tightly wrapped in gunny bags that he couldn't see what it was.

The management of the motel was quite informal, and the front desk went somewhere in the middle of the night, which happened to be convenient for four people to move around.

Jin Daqiang and the others moved their things into the room and placed them lightly on the bed. The three pairs of eyes seemed to be shining.

But the more Hou San watched it, the more he felt...

"Why the hell does this seem to be a person? After working all night, you just sneaked out a person?!" Hou San felt his temples throbbing.

"You know what!" Jin Daqiang patted the back of his head angrily, and raised his chin to the other two.

The hemp stick untied the mouth of the sack, revealing a dark but beautiful face.

"Fuck, you still say it's not a human being, isn't this a human being? What the hell is a black-skinned woman!" Hou San gasped in shock.

"You motherfucker, show me clearly!" Jin Daqiang was about to be mad by this brainless pig teammate, and wished to slap both of himself who thought this silly boy was a talent to make.

When Hou San heard this, he realized that the woman in the sack was lying upright. She looked stiff and obviously not a living person, but her expression was as usual, and she didn't look like she was dead. Suddenly, her eyes almost popped out.

"This is a living corpse!" Jin Daqiang looked at him as if he had never seen the world, and proudly took out a cigarette, beckoning Hou San to light it for himself.

It took Hou Sanhao a long time to come back to his senses, and hurried over to call Daqiang brother.

Jin Daqiang blew a smoke ring at him, and said slowly: "A living corpse, a living corpse, a corpse that looks like a living person is a state that can only be formed by a coincidence after death. This woman has been buried underground for many years. , the face is still lifelike, without any damage, it is the best among living corpses, this time my brothers picked up a treasure, if it is sold overseas, tsk, at least this amount!"

Hou San foolishly counted Jin Daqiang's fingers again, and immediately burst into joy: "Then what are you waiting for, brother Daqiang, please contact the buyer immediately!"

Although he didn't know what this living corpse was, he understood the reason why Ye Changmeng had many dreams.

Jin Daqiang nodded and shook his head: "It's too late today, let's wait until tomorrow morning, everyone take a nap first, and leave here when the sky is about to dawn."

The operation tonight was quite smooth. Hou San never thought that making money could be so easy. He vaguely felt that he seemed to have forgotten something, but they were all too sleepy, and quickly fell asleep guarding the living corpse.

Because Jin Daqiang said that he would set off before dawn, Hou San didn't dare to sleep too hard. On the other hand, he was too excited. At about two or three o'clock in the morning, he heard a faint sound coming from his ear. Soso's voice.

Hou San woke up suddenly, nothing else, the main reason was that Jin Daqiang and the three left him and ran away in the middle of the night. After all, he joined later. Although Hou San is young, he has struggled in society after all. After more than ten years, I still have this experience. In the face of interests, human nature cannot stand the test.

Hou San immediately opened his eyes, only to see a dark figure not far away looking for something in the hemp backpack with his back turned to him.

Is it hemp?

Although Ma Gan is thin, he shouldn't be so short, and it's not Jin Daqiang and Fatty, their body shape is wrong...

Could it be that the hotel owner wants to cheat?

Thinking of this, Hou San woke up instantly. He looked left and right, quietly picked up the desk lamp by the bed, stepped forward in two or three steps, and threw his head and face at the figure.

At this time, Jin Daqiang and the others were also alarmed. The ceiling lights in the guest room were suddenly turned on. Hou San didn't adapt to the strong light all of a sudden, and closed his eyes reflexively, still holding the man's back clothes firmly The leader turned to Jin Daqiang and said, "Brother Daqiang, someone wants to steal our living corpse!"

Unexpectedly, the faces of Jin Daqiang and the others changed instantly, and Madness gave him a wink.

"Brother Daqiang, what's wrong with your eyes?" Monk Hou Sanzhang was puzzled.

Jin Daqiang looked at the fool and almost knelt down to him, Hou San sensed something was wrong, turned his head, and was facing a bloody mouth.

Hou San's terrified scream was suppressed at the bottom of his throat, and he felt his blood gurgle out through a big hole in his neck, and his vitality was also lost together.

He suddenly remembered what he had forgotten before going to bed. Two days ago, Liu Mazi, who sold stinky tofu next door, mentioned it to him. The Sanming Mountain Archaeological Team was said to be haunted by ghosts, and they lost things in the middle of the night. Could it be because of this guy... …

"Hou San just died like this?" Lin Mian poured a glass of water for Guanhuo, and the latter thanked him repeatedly.

"Dead is not dead, but he lost a lot of blood. It is estimated that he will be completely cold in a few hours later. The hotel owner went upstairs to clean up at noon the next day and found him unconscious on the ground. Worried about his life, he reported it immediately. Police, and an ambulance was called.

After Hou San woke up, the police went to the hospital to record a statement. The kid was so scared that he uttered the whole thing like a bean in a bamboo tube. When the little policeman who handled the case heard it, what living corpses and blood sucking were all a fantasy, and what Thinking that he was dishonestly making up a story, the old police/police who went there together heard something wrong and reported the matter to the special management office. "

Lin Mian had heard from Bian Changfeng and Xushan about the haunting of the Sanming Mountain Ruins before, and King Biancheng told them with certainty that there was no trace of ghosts there, and it was not haunted at all.

But what about the living corpse?

"A monster that looks like a human and likes to suck blood..." Lin Mian slowly opened his eyes wide, "Isn't this the legendary vampire?"

Hu Qiaoqiao on the side laughed out loud when he heard the words: "What vampire, it's just a bat spirit that can transform into a human form."

Lin Mian was delighted when she heard it: "Could it be that the living corpse that Jin Daqiang and the others treat as a treasure is actually a bat spirit?"

Hu Qiaoqiao shrugged: "I don't know."

"The hotel owner only found Hou San unconscious in the room, where are the three of Jin Daqiang and the living corpse?" Lin Mian turned to turn off the fire.

He turned off the fire and was drinking water. After listening to his question, he hurriedly put down his teacup and replied: "I don't know where to go, but the Special Management Office believes that if an existence like a living corpse is incompatible with human society, if it appears in a public place, it will easily attract attention, but So far, we have not heard of any dark-skinned women with different behaviors, so we think it is likely to return to Sanming Mountain."

Lin Mian frowned and thought for a moment, leaned over and asked Wu Ting in a low voice, "Are we going to take up the task of the dean?"

Dean Wu glanced at the little assistant and knew that he was moved, so he nodded: "Go."

Except for Lin Mian, everyone in the research institute is actually not keen on doing the task, and everyone knows that Wu Ting will definitely follow, and no one wants to be that ignorant light bulb, so this trip to Sanming Mountain is still only the two of them people.

It was the first time for Lin Mian to see a real archaeological excavation site. The site was in a depression of Sanming Mountain. The surrounding weeds and gravel had been cleared out. Not far away were several towers that Hou San mistook as graves. pack of army green tents.

The archaeological pit is on the east side of the tent. It is square and about five or six meters deep. The inside of the pit is uneven, and there is a dark hole in the northwest corner.

Beside the burrow stood several archaeological team members in uniform and a people's policeman familiar to Lin Mian - the captain of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Sichuan Public Security Bureau.

Xing Xiyang also saw him and Wu Ting, and waved to them.

After the two parties exchanged greetings, Xing Xiyang and the archaeological team continued the topic just now. Lin Mian listened for a while before he realized that the archaeological team also called the police. The living corpse in the mouth can sell this amount.

"The ancient corpse has been dug out for several days. It has been kept in the warehouse before. Its appearance is more complete than the famous Mawangdui female corpse. It has extraordinary historical significance and research value. It is the most important part of this archaeological operation. harvest."

The captain of the archeology is an old professor with gray hair and round glasses. He looks over 60 years old. He dug out the ancient corpse himself and buried it quite deep. The first thing he does every morning is to go to the temporary warehouse to see His baby, it was the same this morning, the old professor hummed a little tune, happily opened the door and went in. A few seconds later, the archaeologists on duty outside heard him making a high-pitched sound like a screaming chicken.

"Comrade police, on behalf of the capital headquarters, I implore you to arrest the villain who stole the corpse, otherwise, if such a precious cultural relic is lost overseas, it will definitely be a great loss to our country!" The captain held tightly Lin Mian's hands almost burst into tears.

Lin Mian was moved by the old man's sincerity, but he still wanted to say, don't worry, the cultural relics can't be lost, maybe he has already returned home.

After seeing off the old professor, Xing Xiyang touched his chin: "What do you think of this case?"

Wu Ting's eyes fell on the cave in the archaeological pit, and he answered the wrong question: "Is the ancient corpse dug out of the cave?"

The young man standing next to Xing Xiyang was taken aback when he heard the words, and nodded in response: "The site discovered this time has three floors, and the ancient corpse was buried on the second floor. This hole was dug to confirm the structure of the site... ..."

Before the young man could finish speaking, Wu Ting strode towards the cave. He pulled the rope ladder nailed to the ground, and seeing that it was still strong, he quickly climbed down without saying a word.

Lin Mian closely followed the pace of her boss.

When Xing Xiyang set off in the morning, the bureau asked him to fully cooperate with the Institute's actions, and he also knew that he could only serve as an assistant in cases involving those demons and ghosts, and the witch was really in charge of commanding. Ting.

Thinking of this, Xing Xiyang also followed, and the young man who had answered Wu Ting's question before saw it anxiously: "Hey, non-professionals are not allowed to enter the archaeological pit without permission!"

However, none of the three listened to him, so the young man had no choice but to go down the burrow too.
