After the retired judge enters the escape game

Master Ma was the celestial master who was invited by the real estate boss to suppress the water ghosts in Jiangxin Island, and was drowned after losing to the water ghosts and becoming a substitute.

Master Ma barely controlled the scarecrow to sit up, and then sighed: "You know me?"

"En." Qi Wuguo said, "I saw your photo at Boss Qian's place."

"Boss Qian, how is he doing?"

Qi Wuguo said: "*** is dead."

Master Ma was taken aback for a moment, then sighed: "He can be regarded as a decisive person, and it is indeed better to die in the ass than to be a water ghost's substitute."

Duan Li was not in the mood to chat with Master Ma, and asked in a cold voice, "What happened after you died?"

What happened next was somewhat unexpected by the two of them, but it was within reason.

After Master Ma was killed by a water ghost, he became a water ghost and stayed at the bottom of the cold and dark river.He was a Taoist before his death, and his soul was much stronger than ordinary people.

Even after becoming a water ghost, he did not become unconscious due to resentment, and maintained his sanity.

So he discovered something abnormal in Xincheng. In this river, the number of water ghosts exceeded the standard.

The bottom of the river is densely populated with water ghosts. Even if people who died in this river throughout the ages have become water ghosts, it would not be possible to reach this astonishing number.

This abnormality caught Master Ma's attention. He is a practitioner after all, unlike ordinary water ghosts who are bound in the same place and can only go to other places with the help of floods.

Master Ma exhausted the power of his soul and touched the entire new city.

"This is a cave."

"Yin point?" Qi Wuguo didn't understand.

Duan Li said: "Yin and yang are not interlinked, but in some places, there will be special places that are interlinked with the underworld. Fierce ghosts will be attracted by the strong yin energy and become ghost places where thousands of ghosts gather."

"So, the ancient pagoda on Jiangxin Island was used to suppress these evil spirits?"

All the clues are almost connected in one place at this time, making many things that I can't figure out suddenly clear.

Why did Jiang Chuanzhi, who died in an accident, want to make the planning of the new city exactly the same as that of Jiangbian Village? Perhaps the reason is also related to the acupoint.

Jiang Chuanzhi may also know about these things, but the development of the new city is inevitable, and he insisted that the planning should be carried out according to his requirements.

Thinking of this, Qi Wuguo turned on his phone and checked Jiang Chuanzhi's hometown.

Sure enough, Jiang Chuanzhi is from Jiangbian Village. It seems that the final customs clearance has to fall on Jiangbian Village and Jiang Chuanzhi.

"Then why are you trapped in the scarecrow?" Qi Wuguo asked.

Master Ma said: "I originally wanted to try to warn the people living here about the ancient pagoda and the Yin cave, but after all, I became a substitute for the water ghost, and it took too much energy to leave from the bottom of the water."

The matter is actually very simple. Even if Master Ma has some skills, he can't change his identity as a substitute for the water ghost. Leaving from the bottom of the water weakens his strength, and then he is infected by resentment and loses his mind.

He found the owner of this house and wanted to warn him, but he lost his mind and did something that made the landlord think he was a ghost.

The landlord is from Jiangbian Village, which seems to have some ancient heritage. Master Ma was trapped in the scarecrow by the landlord, and then sealed in the wall, unable to leave for half a step.

Until Qi Wuguo and the others moved into the house, Master Ma, who regained his senses, tried to warn them again and made noises in the wall.

"The yin point must be suppressed, otherwise the entire new city will become a ghost town, and it will even spread to the old city."

Master Ma said so, with anxious expressions on his face.

Although he was greedy for money, he also lost his life because of millions, but he couldn't bear to see tens of thousands of people lose their lives because of the acupoint.

Qi Wuguo said: "Now that the ancient pagoda has been destroyed, what can you do?"

Master Ma was taken aback, and smiled wryly: "If I had a way, I wouldn't have died tragically at the hands of the water ghost."

Well, this NPC is just providing key clues, not the key to customs clearance.

Qi Wuguo thought so, but didn't show any expression on his face, he turned his head to look at Duan Li: "Master Ma, what should we do?"

"You can send him away." Duan Li said.

It was already noon when Master Ma was sent away.

At noon, the yang energy is in full bloom, which is a good time to go to Jiangbian Village to find out.

Although they also went to Jiangbian Village at night a few days ago, the game had just started at that time, and it was not yet dangerous.Now that two people have died, I don't know when the indiscriminate killing mode will be activated, so it's better to be cautious.

Qi Wuguo thought for a while, then called Lu Manman.Now that they have obtained key clues, they naturally want to communicate with other players.

As for whether the other party is willing to go to Jiangbian Village together to find clues, it is up to them to choose.

"Hello? I was just about to call you guys!"

Lu Manman picked up the phone and said just that.

"What's wrong?" Qi Wuchang asked.

"I stayed at Feng Zhen's house yesterday. Just now Jiang Lihui came to the door and said that there is something important to tell us. I am going to call and notify you to come over."

Since Lu Manman said so, and Jiang Lihui lived in Jiangbian Village before, it happened to be a visit to Feng Zhen's house.

The two arrived downstairs at Feng Zhen's house, and when they were about to go upstairs, Duan Li said to Qi Wuguo in a low voice: "The scarecrow technique does not know how deep it is, you stay away from Jiang Lihui later."

When they were exploring Jiangbian Village before, they found that Jiang Lihui had turned into a scarecrow at night, but appeared in front of everyone as usual during the day.

Duan Li couldn't see Jiang Lihui's current situation, so he had to be careful about such unknown things.

Qi Wuguo nodded, the two entered Feng Zhen's house, the door was already open, and they were waiting for their arrival.

In the living room, Feng Zhen and Lu Manman sat on the three-seater sofa, Jiang Lihui sat on the side two-seater sofa, and there was a single sofa left.

Qi Wuguo walked in and scanned several places.

Jiang Lihui couldn't sit next to her. If the other party got into trouble at such a close distance, she wouldn't even have time to react.

Duan Lina always keeps a distance from others, so the single sofa is naturally reserved for him.

In just a few seconds, Qi Wuguo had made a decision and walked towards Lu Manman's side.

"Sit here." Duan Li pulled Qi Wuguo from behind and pushed him on the single sofa.

Qi Wuguo was about to ask Duan Li where to sit, when he felt that the armrest next to him sank, and Duan Li sat directly on the armrest of the sofa.

"..."

Lu Manman looked at Qi Wuguo and the two with burning eyes, Feng Zhen looked blank, and Jiang Lihui was pale and her eyes were straight, not knowing what to write.

"What's wrong?" Qi Wuguo broke the silence.

Lu Manman came back to his senses and said, "Ah, I don't know either. We'll discuss it when you come over."

Feng Zhen leaned over and patted Jiang Lihui's hand lightly: "Sister Jiang, what happened."

Only now did Jiang Lihui's eyes focus, she opened her mouth, her voice was very dry: "Everyone in that village is dead."

"What!" Lu Manman exclaimed.

Qi Wuguo and Duan Li looked at each other with such clarity in their eyes.

Jiang Lihui told what happened to her today. As a veteran player, Jiang Lihui would not stay at home waiting to die.

It's just that she needs to go to the hospital to take care of patients during the day. The patient in the hospital passed away suddenly yesterday, so she has time to look for clues in the village.

After searching, she discovered a shocking secret.

There was an accident in this village, and the land was expropriated for the development of the new city.

The village was divided into two factions, and the young people demanded to transfer both Jiangxin Island and the land in the village out of interest.However, the old people in the village disagreed with life and death, saying that the ancestors had rules and the buildings in the village could not be moved.

After quarreling for a while, the old people couldn't hold back the young people at home. The village committee held a meeting and agreed to transfer Jiangxin Island, but asked not to move the ancient pagoda on Jiangxin Island.

After the transfer of Jiangxin Island, the young people in the village stopped for a while.However, that huge sum of money will only make people more greedy.

However, a few months later, the young people started thinking again. Those young people stole the land certificates of their own homes, and when they left the village, they were discovered by the old people and chased them out.

They just chased into the newly completed tunnel, and then the tunnel collapsed, and most of the people in the village died in the collapse accident.

After the accident, the rest of the people in the village were unwilling to live here and moved out one after another.

The more Jiang Lihui talked, the more frightening she felt. Thinking of living in a village without a living person for such a long time, she felt unbearable.

Seeing that Jiang Lihui didn't seem to notice anything strange about her, Qi Wuguo didn't say much, but asked, "Did you find anything else wrong in the past few days?"

Jiang Lihui thought for a while, then shook her head and said: "No, I go out every morning, and it's normal when I go out, oh yes, every household in the village gets up very early, and most of the homes are empty when I go out .”

At this point, she paused, and continued: "I just thought it was a habit in the countryside. I woke up early, so I didn't think much about it."

Qi Wuguo frowned slightly, and asked again: "Where did that person go?"

"It should be working in the fields, I heard them say so."

"Working in the fields?" Lu Manman exclaimed, as if thinking of something very bad.

Qi Wuguo knew what she was thinking with just one glance.The rice fields surrounding the village, and the scarecrows in the rice fields.

Therefore, whether the people in the village will work in the fields or become scarecrows in the fields is open to discussion.

The main line of the whole story is inseparable from the scarecrow and the Yin cave, and the reason why the old man in Jiangbian village insisted on not selling the land in Jiangxin village seems to be related to this matter.

"Let's go to the village to have a look." Qi Wuguo got up and said, "What about you?"

Lu Manman stood up straight away and said, "Of course, it's broad daylight and the scarecrow isn't here, so it should be the safest."

Feng Zhen hesitated for a moment, then stood up.

Jiang Lihui didn't move, she just sat on the sofa and didn't know what she was thinking.

Lu Manman only thought that the other party was afraid, so he walked over and took her hand, and said, "Sister Jiang, don't be afraid, it's safer for us to act together."

In the end, Jiang Lihui and the others set off for Jiangbian Village.
