Nightmare Attack Chapter 1049

A terrible conjecture formed in everyone's heart. It was the thing that left those footprints... carried away the coffin!

The temple is not big, Chen Hao quickly turned around in it, he was looking for Pang Xiaofeng's body, but unfortunately he didn't find it, "Chen Hao." Jiang Cheng's voice held out his hand to him indifferently, "Look at this. "

Chen Hao came over and took a small thing from Jiang Cheng's hand. It was a rhino horn distributed by the beater, but the difference was that there were burn marks on the polished rhino horn.

"I found it on the ground." Jiang Cheng looked at him calmly, "Just in front of the incense burner."

There is no doubt that the person who burned the rhino horn here last night must be Pang Xiaofeng. He must have encountered something terrible. Holding the rhino horn, Chen Hao looked at the incense burner.

There was only a small half of the incense in the incense burner, and the incense had long since been extinguished.

And the candle mentioned by the watcher also burned out, leaving only an empty candlestick.

At this moment, Jiang Cheng and Chen Hao raised their heads and turned their attention to the statue. The statue was no different from last night. It still looked like the fluttering clothes, but the two of them saw the clue.

Before he could speak, he saw Yu Chengmu twisting his beard and walking over with eight-character steps, "The two little brothers also saw a problem, right?"

"Although I don't know as much as the old gentleman, this statue is too realistic." Chen Hao replied truthfully.

"Hehe, this is not a simple idol, but a specially built ghost altar." Yu Chengmu's voice changed, and it was a little gloomy, "In other words, this...is a ghost temple."

"Do you know who this woman is above?" Yu Chengmu looked at Chen Hao and Jiang Cheng with a playful look, especially Jiang Cheng. He was very interested in this person.

But before he could continue to show off, he saw Jiang Cheng walking forward. Below the statue was a stone platform, surrounded by a curtain made of white cloth.

Jiang Cheng stretched out his hand to lift the white cloth, and Chen Hao's eyes suddenly changed. The stone platform covered by the white cloth was engraved with countless waves. A boundless feeling, a sense of unstoppable power burst forth.

And above the vast waves, is the goddess walking on the waves.

"Miss Dahe." The name immediately appeared in Chen Hao's mind.

Jiang Cheng put down the white cloth and looked up at the goddess statue in front of him, "This temple should be called Dahe Niangniang Temple, but I don't know what good Dahe Niangniang has done for the villagers, so that the villagers are so grateful for Dade's memory of her, and also A temple was built just for her."

Yu Chengmu, who was marginalized, couldn't hang on his face, he was obviously showing off, but he forced this boy surnamed Jiang to pretend, "Hehe, little brother Jiang has good eyesight, but unfortunately you only know one of them, but not the other. Yu Chengmu curled his lips, his eyes wandering around the temple, "This ghost temple has a strange origin, and judging from the surrounding layout, there must be an expert here to suppress the grievances of this ghost. "

These Jiangcheng really don't know, but he looks as usual.

Yu Chengmu looked at him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he seemed to see through everything, but in fact his heart was beating.

Not long after, there was another gong sound outside, and there were no more clues in the temple. The three of them turned and left, and went to join the crowd outside the temple.

When they learned that the ghosts were enshrined in the temple, everyone's expressions suddenly brightened.

Following the strange footprints, everyone left the mansion all the way. The most urgent task is to find the whereabouts of the coffin. It is best to find the body of Pang Xiaofeng, but as we walked, we found that the village was surprisingly quiet, as if the entire village had disappeared. , which is not a good sign.

And the direction of the footprints is actually the direction of the sound of the gong.

When they heard the gong for the third time, they climbed over a relatively high mound, and their vision suddenly became clear. A large river appeared in front of them, and on the bank of the river, hundreds of people gathered densely.

Looking at the clothes, they are the villagers who disappeared in the village.

Seven coffins were neatly placed on the bank of the river, the lids of the coffins were lifted aside, and the bodies inside were gone.

The old man they saw last night was standing in front of the coffin with a black gong in his hand. Because of the distance, he couldn't see his expression clearly.

In the crowd, there were people in white filial attire kneeling down not far from the coffin. A cold and damp wind blew, and a woman's low and hoarse weeping sound was vaguely heard, as if mourning.

When a group of people approached, they were found. The old man was carrying a gong, and with the help of a young man, he came over. His footsteps were trembling. Our village is sorry for you, for letting one of your masters lose his life in vain!"

Hearing this, Zhang Junyu frowned and looked around for a week, but he didn't see Pang Xiaofeng's body, so he couldn't help but ask: "How did you know that one of us died?"

Could it be that there were people in the house besides them last night?

That beater?

The old man's eyes were red and his voice was hoarse: "Masters, see for yourself."

The river surface is very wide, and the entire river surface shows a faint black color, and the visibility is very poor.

And inside the whirlpool, there is something floating up and down.

Holding his breath, he looked intently. Du Moyu, who had good eyesight, suddenly frowned. He saw a pale and bloodless face, "It's Xiaofeng!"

"Yes, it's one of your masters." The old man showed great guilt and couldn't help sighing, "I only heard about it this morning, and I rushed over after that."

"Who found the body first?" Yu Chengmu looked at the old man.

The old man beckoned and called a dark-faced shirtless man to introduce to everyone, "That's him, you can call him... just call him Su Da."

"Su Da." Yu Chengmu said, "When did you find the body?"

"When the sky was bright, I saw something floating up and down in the vortex. Later, when I looked closely, it was a person." Su Da looked very honest, and his voice was dull.

Zhou Qing sneered, "It's just dawn, what are you doing by the river, and now that it's bright, we can barely see the corpse. Tell me, how did you see clearly when the sky was bright?"

Seeing this, the old man explained: "Masters, don't be angry. It's like this. Mr. Su arranged for him in the village. Every day at dawn, we have to arrange for people to come to Dahe for inspection. It just happened to be his turn today."

Speaking of this, a trace of bitterness appeared on the old man's face, and he sighed deeply, "The masters are the benefactors of our village, I dare not hide from you. During this period of time, people have disappeared from time to time in the village at night, but as long as it is a missing person, It didn't take long for the bodies to surface in the river, and every time it was near there."

The old man glanced at the river with some fear, and said in a low voice, "It's... the vortex you saw."

"So is the body in the coffin?" Du Moyu asked.

The old man nodded, "Yes, both."

Chen Hao looked around, looked back and said to the old man, "Are these villagers still doing anything here? If they are all right, let them go back. We still have some things to ask you about."

The old man looked at Su Da, "You have heard what the masters said, go, let them all go back." Before Su Da left, the old man stopped him again, "Wait, don't worry if you tell them, With the masters here, the village will be fine!"

Su Da nodded his head, and Yu Sheng agreed angrily.

But the last sentence made Jiang Cheng and the others frown. What do you mean there will be nothing wrong with us in the village. If you don't kill the people in your village, let's kill us instead?

Everyone knows in their hearts that 80% of the time this time, they will be used as scapegoats.

The most urgent task now is to find out what happened in the village, and what is the relationship between the Specter this time and this village.

When everyone was almost gone, Yu Chengmu smiled and took the old man's hand, dragged a long voice and asked, "Village chief, the temple we went to vigil last night... Who is it dedicated to?"

Yu Chengmu clearly felt that the old man's hand trembled.

Yu Chengmu's hand tightened, not giving him a chance to escape at all. The withered bark-like face leaned over with a smile on his face, but his two eyes were staring at the old man's face. For a second, he suddenly said, "It's the Empress Dahe, right?"

"Ah!" Hearing these words, the old man was so frightened that the gong in his hand fell to the ground, and the blood on his face faded.

After reacting, the old man's legs softened, he knelt on the ground with a thud, and said in a crying voice, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, masters, I didn't mean to hide it from you, it's really... I really don't dare. Let me tell you, the masters we recruited in the past would hide away when they heard this name, and they wouldn't come for any amount of money."

Lei Mingyu was so angry that he raised his leg and kicked the old man to the ground, "If others refuse to come, you lie to us, you old man, your life is life, but our life is not life? !"

Worrying that Lei Mingyu would do more things, Du Moyu stepped forward and pulled him to the back. Lei Mingning stared at the old man with a stern look. If you don't explain honestly today, I will throw you into the river.

Jiang Cheng figured that it was almost done, he stepped forward to help the old man up and dusted him off, "We can ignore the previous matter, but now you have to explain to us what happened to this Empress Dahe, and What's the matter with the strange things in the village?"

The old man was kicked by Lei Mingyu and couldn't breathe. He sat on a big stone for a long time before finally speaking: "You are right, that temple is called... It's called Dahe Niangniang Temple, we are for the Wu family. Made by the eldest lady."

"That house, the one you lived in last night was the former Wu family mansion."

"It's a long story." The old man shook his head slightly, his eyes slowly letting go, "You may not believe that 10 years ago, our village was the richest village nearby. Right next to this crossing river that can be called the lifeblood."

"But suddenly one night late at night, the crossing river swelled wildly. The flood broke down the river bank and poured into the village. Many people were drowned, and many people were swept away by the river, and even the bodies were not found."

"Originally, we thought that the river embankment was in disrepair, so we began to reinforce the river embankment, and this kind of thing has never happened since the establishment of the village, and we only think that the age is not good."

"Unexpectedly, this is just the beginning." The old man's voice fluctuated, and his expression became fearful, "As the floods passed, more and more strange things happened in the village, and the original fish crossed the river overnight. , I can't even catch a fish."

"Someone didn't believe in evil, so they contacted more than a dozen fishing boats and jointly laid a huge net to see what was going on in the water."

"But after waiting for a long time, there is no movement at all."

"Seeing that the sun was about to set, everyone was about to pull the net up, but when I pulled it, I found that something was wrong. The net was very heavy, especially heavy, as if it had caught something under the water."

"I often fish in the river. Everyone has experience. No matter how you pull something under the water, it will not move. It must be a dead object, and it is very large."

"Experienced old people analyzed that it may be that after the flood, the riverbed was washed away, and a large stone with a strange shape was exposed, and the stone caught the fishing net."

"With that being said, no one dares to tear it up. After all, fishing nets are the ones who eat, and it's really bad to tear them apart. So someone suggested that they go down before it's dark and feel the underwater situation."

"A man with good water volunteered, took off his clothes, and plunged in with a scorpion."

"He went down for a long time, so long that everyone was worried that he was in danger, but with a series of blisters, the man finally emerged from the water."

"According to the man, the net caught a large rock underwater and he couldn't solve it by himself."

"I found out the situation, and two more men said nothing, took off their clothes and went into the water, but after a while, the three of them surfaced one after another, urging a few more people, the situation under the water was worse than expected complicated."

"At this time, it was already half dark, and the old man in charge of the boat looked at the last rays of the sun, and had an ominous premonition in his heart. Don't watch the villagers grow up by the river, but as long as the sun goes down, the Someone will go into the river, that's the rule."

"But some people are reluctant to part with their own fishing nets. They plan to take the time to get the nets back before it gets dark, as long as they move quickly, so they don't listen to the old man to stop them, and they jump down with 4 people."

"This time, 7 people came up, and then they have to go down to help, right?" Hearing this, Du Moyu had probably guessed the next direction of the matter.

The old man nodded painfully when he heard the words, "Yes, that's it, but this time, it's already completely dark, and the people who stayed on the boat also realized that something was wrong."

"They refuse to go into the water, and those who have to soak in the water quickly get on the boat, fishing nets, etc., wait until dawn tomorrow."
