Chapter 3 Chapter Three
Before the other security guards came, Lao Sha found an opportunity to sneak out of the steel factory and found the hotel where the thief was.
As soon as he knocked on the door, the thief opened the door, and Lao Sha could tell that the thief and Yan'er hadn't slept all night, and had been working all night.
"I thought the Black Forest was weird enough, but I didn't expect the steel factory to be even more evil! I said earlier that there was something wrong with that place, and I guessed it right." Lao Sha sat on the chair and said straight to the point.
"What did you find?" Seeing Lao Sha's expression, the thief frowned.
"The passage of Yin soldiers." Lao Sha still felt lingering fear when he said these four words, "It's not just that, there are more mysterious things."
"The aisle of Yin soldiers is nothing, and science can explain it." Yan'er smiled slightly, turning the pen in her hand, "Why are you getting less and less courageous?"
Lao Sha noticed the contempt in Yan'er's tone, and immediately understood that the thief had told her about the things in the black forest.
"It's not that I'm timid, it's that something went wrong. Our situation is unknown. This battle was very risky." Lao Sha was a little angry.
"Actually, Lao Sha, have you ever thought that there is an ancient tomb of a tomb guard, and the things inside must be more complete and more valuable." The thief said.
"Did you listen to her bewitchment!" Lao Sha suddenly stood up, pointing at Yan'er and questioning.Last night, when the god thief heard about the guardian of the tomb, he originally wanted to retreat, but now he is so firm, he must have listened to Yan Er's words.
Yan'er's expression didn't change, she continued to spin the pen, staring at the computer screen in front of her.
"We're getting old, if we don't take advantage of our skills and make a fortune, we won't have a chance in the future if we want to! With the three of us working together, is there anything we can't do? The previous time, it didn't happen." ?” The thief tried to persuade Lao Sha.
"That time we almost fell. It was good luck. We won't have such good luck forever." Regardless of Yan'er's presence, Lao Sha took off his shirt and showed God a peek.
"How are you playing a hooligan!" Yan'er quickly looked sideways and cursed.
The thief saw the wound on Lao Sha's chest, and before he had time to bandage it, it was because the well exploded last night and was scratched by a steel sheet.Lao Sha turned his back again, showing the bruise on his back to God for a peek.
God peeked at it, but remained silent.
Lao Sha said: "I haven't entered the ancient tomb yet, so I'm like this..."
Yan'er said in a bad tone: "That's because you are not capable, who can blame you."
"I won't do this matter. God thief, my brother is not righteous, I'm sorry..." Lao Sha cupped his hands, put on his clothes, turned around and left.
Walking out of the door, Lao Sha heard Yan'er saying: "Why is this person like this? He is half-hearted and has no rules of the world. No wonder he is still alone at this age and can't make a name for himself."
The thief said: "You can't blame him. This matter has nothing to do with him. We are indeed a force. If I hadn't made a promise to you, I would have withdrawn it too. This deal is difficult..."
"Now all the electronic instruments have problems. Such expensive detectors are also out of order. Under the steel plant, there must be something that affects the magnetic field. It is likely to be something in the ancient tomb. This item must be priceless, enough for us to live carefree for the rest of our lives..." Yan'er said.
Lao Sha was walking down, he couldn't hear clearly from a distance, and he didn't want to eavesdrop, he thought very clearly now, after finishing the last thing in Hufu Town, he would leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.
Hearing this, I smiled and asked Lao Sha: "Are you frightened by the aisle of Yin soldiers and bloody footprints?"
Lao Sha took a puff of smoke, swallowed the smoke, and did not spit it out for a long time, "It is a lie to say that you are not afraid. No one will not be afraid when encountering such a thing. But it is not enough to run away in fright."
"Then you thought of leaving because of those tomb guards?" I was very curious why Lao Sha wanted to leave.
In my opinion, Lao Sha is very courageous. At least at this time, he should not have the thought of retreating. For example, if I encounter such a weird thing, I will definitely want to continue to investigate.
The guardian of the tomb, the corridor of the Yin soldiers, the mysterious ancient tomb...anything is worth exploring.
After all, these things are hard to come by, and some people will never meet one of them in their lifetime. Lao Sha is lucky, and he can meet everything in one night.
Lao Sha said: "From the beginning, I kept emphasizing my intuition with you. Intuition let me go, part of the reason is the existence of the mausoleum guard, but the biggest reason is that I finally saw clearly The real purpose of the predecessors to build the steel mill!"
I looked at Lao Sha quietly, thought for a while, and something was ready to come out of my mouth.
Lao Sha may have seen the light in my eyes, understood what I guessed, and immediately smiled and said, "Yes, that's it."
I said enthusiastically: "As far as the current situation is concerned, there are steel, water, fire, soil and wood in the steel factory. Of course, there is no shortage. As long as they are arranged according to certain rules, it is a five-element array. I understand too well, but I know that Yin-Yang and Five Elements are very fancy things in tombs, especially in the north. Minorities advocate nature and follow the principle that the Five Elements are interdependent and endless. But judging from the time when the steel factory was established, this Five-Element Formation It can’t be part of the ancient tomb. It was built later, so there is only one reason, it is the same as the swastika-shaped steel pipe before, and it plays the role of suppressing evil.”
Lao Sha nodded: "I learned a little bit from my master, so I discovered this fact, whether it is the building shape of the steel factory, or the direction of the water flow guided by the water pipes, or even the direction of the underground and surrounding water flow, as well as the unannounced visit location of the blast furnace converter. , have undergone specific planning, which is different from general architectural planning, following the path in Fengshui."
"It's obvious now. The tombs under the ground are certainly not simple," I said.
"Although I realized it, I didn't leave." Lao Sha sighed softly.
"To be honest, apart from being curious about why you wanted to leave, I'm even more curious about why you stayed." I said.Because I know that it is not easy for Lao Sha to make the decision to leave God Thief. Since he did so, he must have considered it carefully, and he will stay unless there is a more important reason.
And this reason is not because of the thief.When Lao Sha decided to leave, he wanted the thief and Yan'er to escape.Without him, it would be impossible for the thief and Yan'er to go down to the ancient tomb.In other words, if the two of them can't accomplish anything, there will be no danger.
"Hei Linzi. That place is the key point of my being trapped in Hufu Town." Lao Sha exhaled a puff of cigarette, and then took another puff.
I suddenly discovered that the cigarette in Lao Sha's hand burned very slowly, and I hadn't finished smoking a cigarette for nearly ten minutes.
Lao Sha came to the steel factory, called four security guards who were over 30 years old, and went to the dark forest again.Although they were over 30 years old, they didn't dare to go to Heilinzi, until Lao Sha said that Dana and Erzi's lives might be in danger, and after he told the fact that he had been there in person and escaped unscathed, the four A security guard followed hesitantly.
As for those villagers who are guarding the mausoleum, the black forest is their trick, but Lao Sha concealed it.
Lao Sha had made a mark before, and following the mark, the five of them quickly reached the depths of the black forest, where the villagers used to offer sacrifices.
As soon as he got here, Lao Sha Xin said that something was wrong, there was no one in the open space, and Dana and Erzi disappeared.The pit where Shi Gandang was buried was re-covered with iron plates, iron nails were driven back, and buried with soil.
"Are you leading the wrong way?" a security guard asked Lao Sha.
Lao Sha shook his head and said, "It's here, there's nothing wrong with it. Let's search separately, remember not to make too much noise, and don't go too far."
A security guard interrupted impatiently: "We all know that you are a foreigner, and we know where you are." After saying that, the security guards separated in twos to find Dana and Er Zi.
Lao Sha carefully observed the surrounding area to see if there were any traces of fighting. Dana has kung fu, and ordinary people can't deal with it. Even if he is subdued, he will leave a lot of clues.
The result was beyond Lao Sha's expectation, and there was no sign of any struggle around.
Not long after, the security guards came back one after another, and they all said they didn't see anyone. One of the security guards said eagerly that his body was itchy and he wanted to go home and take a shower.
Lao Sha saw that there were a lot of small red envelopes on his face. He didn't know if he was bitten by mosquitoes or because he was allergic. is blood.
"Did you touch something strange just now?" Lao Sha asked.
The security guard thought for a while, and said, "I didn't do anything, I just drank some water, and it didn't take long before I felt itchy."
The other security guard who went with the security guard nodded and said that was indeed the case.
"It's strange...why it doesn't itch anymore." The security guard said earlier. At this moment, his neck was cut open, and blood leaked out, but he didn't seem to be in pain or worried. He just kept pressing his hands on his neck. Wipe as if it wasn't blood but sweat.
The other security guards were frightened and kept a few steps away from him.
Lao Sha knew that the security guard had been poisoned, and even lost his mind.
"Hurry up and send him to the hospital. If it's too late, something serious will happen." Lao Sha confessed.
"How do we get out?" A security guard looked around, "Where is the sign?"
Lao Sha was stunned, and looked at the marks he had carved on the tree trunk with a knife. Those marks had disappeared at some point.
The sun couldn't be seen in the forest, and the surroundings looked similar, so it was impossible to tell the direction.
Dana and Erzi disappeared, Lao Sha didn't know what happened to them, and the other security guards were also surprised.He was a bit disrespectful to Lao Sha, thinking that a security guard who had just arrived from Lao Sha was making a mistake by dragging them into this forest in a daze.
Lao Sha slowly calculated in his mind that the second son must be a coward, if he disappeared, it would be easy to explain, most likely because of fear, he ran to hide in the woods.But Dana is not such a person. Dana is pure in heart, and just wants to get the two children out of the iron plate.Another very important point is that Dana has skills.He and Dana did two tricks in the woods, and he knew that Dana was not an ordinary veteran who worked as a security guard. Dana did have kung fu, and his skills were not ordinary martial arts, but some kind of secret martial arts. .
Lao Sha spoke to me faster and faster, impatient to express his intention.
"That big brother," Lao Sha said, "I don't know what he went through, but he told me all the things later."
"I understand," I understand Lao Sha's confusion, he is afraid that if I don't tell the story about the scene he saw with his own eyes, I will question the authenticity of his account.So I went on to say, "It's okay, just tell me what happened to Dana, and then you will use the way he told you to tell me, I can understand."
"It's a novel after all," Lao Sha relaxed, "I know what it means, but I just can't express it, but when you say it like this, you express my thoughts."
"Okay," I smiled and handed Lao Sha a cigarette, "I am very interested in the secret martial arts of Dana. According to your description, Dana is involved in your business because Because of his kung fu, it will play a very important role."
"Indeed," Lao Sha said, "There are a lot of inexplicable things in this world. You already know about the steel factory in Hufu Town. There's a lot to read about it. But let me talk about the Dana thing first."
"What kind of kung fu does he have?"
Lao Sha nodded and continued: "Let's talk about martial arts first, now it's always a national martial arts competition..."
I laughed out loud, "That's embroidered fists and embroidered legs. It's purely for performance and has no actual combat value. It's the same as gymnastics and diving. It's not just these martial arts athletes, but also those who perform on the street. .”
"Almost," Lao Sha said, "but martial arts is our national culture, which has been passed down for thousands of years. Do you think it can last so long with just some show?"
"I've heard," I said to Lao Sha, "that some martial artists are really capable."
"Yes, this is another level of Kung Fu." Lao Sha said, "Different from those performing martial arts, there are indeed many masters of martial arts in various parts of China, such as Taijiquan, Bajiquan, Wing Chun, Hongquan... South and South Many schools in the North have real masters, and their martial arts are not ordinary performances, they can be used for real fighting, and they are very effective."
"This is the real martial arts master." I agreed with Lao Sha, but I saw Lao Sha slowly shaking his head.
Lao Sha paused for a while before saying, "True masters, most people don't know their existence."
"Are you talking about a master of the hidden world?" When I said this, I felt a little funny. If the conversation continued like this, the stories I told would become more and more mysterious, and develop towards an unreal path. I don't want to fall into this kind of result .
"You suspect that there is such a person?" Lao Sha was keenly aware of my emotions.
"Of course I don't doubt it." I said, "It's just that the term "hidden master" generally makes people feel unreliable. After all, it is far away from modern society and modern civilization."
"Actually, it's not far at all." Lao Sha smiled a little, as if mocking my ignorance.
I couldn't figure out the meaning of his smile, so I had no choice but to keep quiet and wait for him to continue.
"In the history of modern martial arts, there is a master-level figure who has influenced the whole world. He is the inheritance of a hidden master. Unfortunately, he is too sharp and forgot to restrain himself and admonish him. In the end, he failed to get a good result..." The old man Sha said, "A lot of them have actually appeared in the history books, but they are not hermit masters. I can only say that they are one of the lineage inheritance. Once they are exposed, they will suffer bad luck, so look at them, no A few have a good end..."
"It's unbelievable." I vaguely guessed what Lao Sha was referring to, "What you understand is indeed something I don't understand."
Seeing that I believed it, Lao Sha smiled and continued: "Since you understand and believe it, then I'll go on and talk about it from Dana."
After fighting, Lao Sha completely believed in Dana's secret martial arts.
Let's just call it secret martial arts for short. This kind of kung fu, like some secret arts, is hard for outsiders to imagine. Its magic lies in the fact that it cannot be deduced and explained by common sense and common sense.
Now that we are talking about Dana, we have to go back now and start from Hei Linzi the night the child disappeared.
After Dana opened the iron plate, he couldn't move Shi Gandang, so he decided to stay and let Lao Sha go out to find the security guard to help.But after waiting for a long time, Dana became impatient. He knew what the consequences would be if people were not rescued as soon as possible if they were buried in the ground.
"Second son, let's try again." Dana couldn't hold back his worries, and walked towards Shi Gandang again.
He could see clearly that there must be a hole under Shi Gandang's pressure, as long as he removed the stone, he could enter the ground and save people.
"Lao Sha was here just now, why didn't you want him to move together, now we are two, how can we move!" The second son was very reluctant.
"Forget it, you lazy bastard, what the hell can you do besides eating meat?" Dana scolded angrily.Of course he understands how heavy Shi Gandang is, even if the three of them do it together, they will definitely not be able to move it. He just doesn't like the feeling of powerlessness.
Even if it doesn't help, you can't just sit and wait.Dana is such a character.
I don't know how long the wait was, but Lao Sha hadn't returned yet, Dana waited impatiently, pacing back and forth, the second son didn't dare to touch the bad luck, so he just sat aside and kept silent.
"Second son, do you think Lao Sha will run away and leave us alone?" Dana asked the second son.
"How do I know." The second son rolled his eyes, "He was recruited by you, you know better than me."
"I asked you to follow him, but you didn't follow him. Your brain is really short-circuited. You can't understand such an obvious intention!" Dana scolded.
"I'm not stupid. Lao Shana's wrist is thicker than his thigh. If he wants to deal with me, I'm the opponent." The second son muttered.
"You still have the nerve to say..." Da Da waved his hand to hit the second son, "I don't have anyone reliable around me. Lao Sha, who showed his face in front of me, will definitely run away. Although I don't know his intentions... , but he is definitely not a serious security guard!"
After Lao Shayue hadn't arrived for a long time, Dana became more and more uneasy. After another two or three hours, he was really not in the mood to wait any longer, so he walked out of the forest.I can't count on Lao Sha, and I have to rely on myself in the end, but I have made a plan in my heart, if I meet Lao Sha again, I will beat him all over the place.
However, when Lao Sha entered the Black Forest, he was scheming and made a mark.Dana had never done it, and he couldn't find Lao Sha's mark, so it was too bad, even if he wanted to go out, he couldn't go out.
Dana and the second son walked around in disorder, and they couldn't get out of the dark forest no matter what.
The third time, the two of them returned to the same place, the place where the villagers placed Shi Gandang.
"Captain Li..." the second son shrank his head and said, "We have encountered a ghost hitting the wall again. This place is really evil."
"What's the matter? I think someone is pretending to be a ghost!" Dana, who was naturally unbelieving, yelled loudly, "Get out of here, let me see your true skills."
"Ghost... ghost..." "Real skills..." "Skills..."
There are countless echoes in the dark forest, but the voice changes very strangely, as if there are countless strange animals, imitating Dana to speak.Dana's voice is very thick and full of masculinity, but the echo is soft and sharp, with strange accents.
"Please, don't shout anymore." The second son's scalp was numb, he clung to Dana, and said softly, "Don't bring in evil things."
"If you leave with Lao Sha early, there won't be such a thing." Dana is not afraid at all, "As the old saying goes, if you don't do something wrong, you are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. I see you, you just don't do good things."
"I'm only in my twenties. I haven't married a wife or had a son. I don't want to die in a place like this. Please do me a favor..." The second son put his arms around Dana's waist.
Being hugged by a man at the waist, Da Da felt very uncomfortable, so he broke Er Zi's hand away, and scolded with a smile: "You bastard, dare you order it, man."
To be honest, Dana was also a little scared at this time. He didn't know what was going on in the dark. No matter what the two of them said, they would repeat it several times, and the tone was extremely weird.
Even if you don't believe in evil, you will panic.
Suddenly, Da Na's hands felt weird, and Er Zi's hands were as cold and hard as trees.Dana hurriedly lowered her head, and suddenly realized that Er Zi's hand was wrapped around her waist. It was a strange tree in the dark forest, and the branches came alive, wrapping him tighter and tighter.
Moreover, Dana's feet were gradually hanging in the air.The strange tree was trying to drag him off the ground.The second son didn't know where to go, and he couldn't see anyone.
Dana has grown up so much, and has never seen this kind of spectacle with his own eyes: just for a moment, the world around him completely changes.
The weirdness of Hei Linzi finally appeared.
Although Dana was young, the closer he was to danger, the more calm he became. He immediately held his breath and closed his eyes.Eyes are unreliable at this time.
His body suddenly became heavier, and he pressed down, his feet firmly stuck to the ground.
His move, from the performance point of view, is very similar to the "thousand catty pendant". The word "thousand catty pendant" can be seen in many martial arts novels. It is not a rare martial art, and of course it is not a secret martial art.
In view of the particularity of secret martial arts, Dana didn't tell Lao Sha the name of this move, so Lao Sha didn't know it either.But the effect is very clear. It looks like a "jack pendant", but in fact, apart from stabilizing the body, it also has one of the biggest functions, which is to clear the mind.
At this time, Dana knew that he was caught in some kind of strange situation.To put it bluntly, in fact, it means that someone took advantage of the special geographical environment of Hei Linzi to change the sound, light, and shadow, and induced them to create an illusion, making people fall into it and cannot extricate themselves... It may even lead to entry into the game insanity.
Dana just managed to restrain this situation, not only that, but he soon discovered that there was a manager in Heilinzi.
A forest watcher, a watcher of the dark wood.
Lao Sha made his words very mysterious, so I thought for a while and asked, "You mean, this kind of unknown master is the real successor of martial arts?"
"I won't talk about performing martial arts," Lao Sha explained, "The masters I'm talking about are all people who have real martial arts and can fight with one against ten. But people like Dana are very different. Average. Definitely a descendant of a certain school.”
"This is what you said after you found out his real background," I said to Lao Sha.
"Xiao Xu, I don't need to lie to you when I tell you this," Lao Sha said, "When I was fighting with Dana in the woods, I found that he was trying his best to conceal his strength when he was fighting. , People who practice martial arts, the most important thing is to preemptive strikes, how can they hide their abilities deliberately."
"Unless there is only one reason..." I understood what Lao Sha meant.
Lao Sha followed my words and said: "Unless it is absolutely necessary, you can't display your true abilities."
"Okay, you've convinced me," I said to Lao Sha with a smile, "Aren't you just talking about this to tell me how powerful Dada is?"
"Yes, he is indeed very powerful." Lao Sha nodded, "There are many people in this world with abilities beyond ordinary people. In the future, some people will be able to escape armor, and some people will possess martial arts..."
"Dana is a person with martial arts." I nodded and said, "You don't need to repeat it."
"By relying on his martial arts, he can deal with a man who is a Qimen Dunjia," Lao Sha said, "doesn't it prove his ability?"
I finally understood what Lao Sha was talking about.
Most of the Chinese still believe in mysterious and unknown things. In the eyes of ordinary people, people who know how to escape armor are subconsciously better than the martial arts recognized by ordinary people. But Dana can break through this boundary.That means that people who really have secret martial arts can fight against people who know magic without falling behind.
What Lao Sha will say next is to prove this.
Dana was in the dark forest and found a person guarding the forest.According to the actions of those villagers just now, Dana can deduce that there is a person in Linzi, and he is using some kind of secret technique to deal with him and Erzi.
Dana knew that he could no longer hide his abilities, so he stood firmly on the open ground, listening to all directions, and concentrated his mind.He himself doesn't know Qimen Dunjia, so he can only use his own way to get out of the predicament.
Since he didn't understand Qimen Dunjia, Dana took a step forward and said to the second son beside him, "Follow me."
But the second son panicked and said: "Dana, why do you want me to follow you, you obviously took a step backwards."
"Your eyes are blurred." Dana scolded the second son.
The second son didn't dare to talk back to Da Na, so he had to follow Da Na to take a step, and Da Na kept walking. After walking a few steps in a row, he found that he had returned to his original position, and the branch that fell just now was in his hand. .
It seems that what the second son said is correct, if he walks like this, he will keep going around in circles, and the person guarding the forest will move faster, and after a few steps, he will let Da Na walk back.
It is obvious that all the trees in this forest look like a vast expanse to outsiders, but it is very likely that every tree is a mechanism controlled by others.
It is not uncommon for this kind of thing handed down from the ancestors, but it is used by later generations in different ways.
Dana said to the second son, "Close your eyes."
"We couldn't get out in the first place," the second son said cautiously, not daring to offend Dana, "it won't make it even harder to get out if we close our eyes."
"You can do whatever I ask you to do!" Da Da was unequivocal at all.
So the two of them closed their eyes and walked straight forward. Dana's steps were the same as usual. After the body touched the tree pole in front of him, they walked around from left to right, and could not go around in one direction. , in that case, you will be back to the starting point in the end.This is the weakness of walking with eyes open. Eyes always remind people which way to go. The layout of this forest is to fool people's eyes and make people make wrong choices.
After Dana walked dozens of steps, he opened his eyes. The second son felt that Dana had stopped and opened his eyes too.
Now they have indeed not returned to the place just now, and it seems that they have escaped the predicament.
But the second son was not happy at all, and the two of them walked into a mud.
"How can there be such a swamp in this forest?" Er Zi almost cried, "Isn't this more troublesome?"
If Dana understands the Qimen Dunjia, he should understand that according to the changes of the five elements, he has now reached the water place in this layout, and in this Qimen, Shui De is facing the wounded gate and the Jingmen. able to come out.It's just that the layout was ingenious, the way out of the mud was underground, Dana took two steps abruptly, Er Zi couldn't bear it, the mud had already submerged their knees, Er Zi couldn't pull out his legs at all.
Dana had no choice but to add the arms of the second son and continue to move forward.
The second son asked curiously: "How can you pull out your legs and move forward step by step... Hey, it's up to your waist, and you can still walk."
"Don't talk nonsense." Dana didn't bother to talk to the second son, and lifted the second son's body with his hands, and continued to move forward step by step.The scope of this quagmire is not large. The purpose of being a Jingmen is not to put people to death, but to trap people here.
But this is of no use to Dana, who can rely on his own efforts to walk over step by step abruptly.
Sure enough, Dana took a few steps forward, and there was a hard rock under his feet, and then slowly walked out of the mud.After walking through the mud, it is not far from the edge of the black forest.
In fact, Dana has already broken through the strange gate just now by relying on his own brute force.
But Dana is not willing to give up, there are two children in the woods, no matter what the situation is, Dana is not willing to give up.
Dana put down his second son, "Did you see that, take a few more steps, and you will be able to get out." Then he turned around to go back through the mud.Now the road in front of him is easily identifiable, and Dana also understands in his heart that since he can come out once, he can come out twice, and repeated arrangements are unnecessary.But the second son didn't dare to walk alone, he just begged Dana to go out with him.
"Then you can figure it out," Dana said, not wanting to waste time, and continued walking towards the loop.The road went smoothly, and after a while, they arrived at the circular open space again. The second son was timid, so he could only follow Da Na.
Dana suddenly discovered that there were several mounds of dirt on the open space, and knew it was not a good thing.But I still couldn't help asking the second son, "You have been here a few times, do you remember that there is a tomb in Linzi?"
"I was asked, I don't know anything." Er Zi screamed, "This is not a fucking tomb, but we obviously didn't see it just now."
"Can you stop yelling like this?" Dana felt guilty, "there are tombstones in the tomb, but there are no tombstones in these dirtbags."
"But, but look," the second son was already paralyzed from fright, sitting on the ground and pointing at the air, "we just went out just now, you have to come back."
It was only then that Dana saw that there were several Kongming lanterns floating in the air, and the Kongming lanterns did not fly into the sky, but were suspended two or three meters above their heads.A word is written with a brush on the outside of each Kongming lantern.They are all "liberation".This word is related to the dead, how could it appear in other places.
The two people were stunned by the Kongming lanterns floating above their heads, looked up for a while, and then lowered their heads.Before the second son could yell, Dana also saw that several tombs on the ground suddenly changed their positions.
It was originally arranged in an irregular manner, but now it surrounds the city in an "L" shape.Dana didn't know that this was the method of the Big Dipper, he only knew that the location of the tomb suddenly changed.
Dana also found that the trees around the open space suddenly became much taller, and some dead trees now had branches and leaves.Branches and leaves rattled in the wind.
"Those trees are moving!" Er Zi exclaimed.
"Don't make a fucking noise, shut up." Dana closed her ears again, listening to the sounds around her.
When Dana opened his eyes again, he found that the Kongming lanterns had been connected in a row in the air, and the tombs were also arranged under the Kongming lanterns.The trees of the Black Forest are getting more and more crowded.
Dana suddenly ran to the far right of a row of tombs, digging the soil desperately with both hands, gave up after digging twice, and ran to the other side to continue digging, and then the third tomb on the left, quickly Dig the soil out.
The second son has completely collapsed. He had hoped that Dana would have a way to deal with this weird thing, but he didn't expect this backer to go crazy now.
But Er Zi's idea is wrong.
When Dana was digging the third grave, he grabbed a man out of the mound of the grave, and then slammed him in front of Er Zi, "Hold him down."
The second son was overwhelmed by Dana's voice, without even thinking about it, he threw himself on the man and pressed him hard. The man struggled desperately, crying like a baby.Only then did the second son realize that the person he was holding was a dwarf less than one meter long, with a wrinkled face and a long beard on his chin.Covered in dirt.
The second son was so frightened that he quickly rolled aside.The dwarf immediately climbed onto a mound of graves quickly, burrowed his head into the mound, and was about to disappear.But one of his legs was grabbed by Dana with incredible speed.Da Na pinched the dwarf's ankle, swung it around twice, and threw the dwarf to the ground again, this time with a lot of force, the dwarf lay motionless on the ground, and seemed to be knocked unconscious.
Dana took the second son, pointed at the dwarf and said, "Have you seen this man?"
"Isn't this the dog Dunzi in the village?" Erzi said curiously, "I didn't see clearly just now, but this man is sitting at the entrance of the village, leading a sheep to graze every day."
"Sure enough, it has something to do with the people in the village!" Dana said angrily, "I'm going to find the people in their village now."
Dana and Erzi took off the belts on their bodies, tied up the hands and feet of the dwarf named Dunzi, and then Dana instructed Erzi to carry the dwarf on his shoulders.The second son dared not listen to Dana's words, so he had to follow suit. However, the dwarf was small in size and not very heavy. He followed Dana to the outside of the forest and saw that Dongfang had begun to turn white.
Dana and Erzi walked outside the woods, and when they were about to see the main road, they saw two people squatting there, walked in and saw that it was Lao Sha and Hei Xiao.
"What are you doing here?" Dana asked Lao Sha and Hei Zi.
When Heizi saw Dana, he shouted in surprise, "Da Na is out. We thought you were missing, just like those two children. We searched for you all night."
Dana didn't understand what Hei Xiao was saying, and asked Hei Xiao, "You were in the woods all night?"
"Yes," Hei Xiao replied.
"We didn't come out in the woods either," Er Xiao rushed to say, "Why didn't we see you?"
Hei Xiao saw that Er Zi was carrying a person on his shoulders, understood it, and said with a smile, "This is the dog at the entrance of the village, why are you carrying him?"
At this time, Lao Sha really got up, and Dana said to Lao Sha: "This forest is more weird than we thought. Did you encounter anything at night?"
"I'll go back to the factory and bring people to meet you," Lao Sha said slowly, "Not only is this forest strange, but many things have happened in the steel factory."
"There are people under the well in the pump room," Hei Xiaoshuo said, "It's still dark at night."
At this time, Dana saw that Lao Sha had been staring at Shi Gandang on the ground just now, and asked, "What is so special about this stone?"
"I stayed back and a few brothers came to look for you, but wandered around in the forest all night," Lao Sha said, "The two groups of us didn't meet. I think it has something to do with this Shi Gandang."
"Don't ask about it now," Dana pointed to the dwarf on Erzi's body, "This guy is doing bad things in the forest, just ask him."
When the second son heard this, he quickly threw the dwarf on his body to the ground, and Dada panicked, "Don't throw him on the ground, he will burrow into the soil."
Lao Sha smiled and said: "It's okay, even if he really knows how to escape from the earth, it's only good at night. Now that it's dawn, he can't go down."
Dana pointed at the dwarf, "Tell me the truth, are you playing tricks in the woods? Where did the two children go?"
The dwarf named Gou Dunzi opened his eyes and said after a while, "What are you doing? I'm sleeping well. Why did you bring me here and beat me?"
Dana said: "Don't pretend to me, talk to me well."
The dwarf said: "I sleep in the woods every day. I have been like this for decades. You treat me like this, and I will show you. What two children, children are not allowed in this forest. You outsiders, don't know us. The rules of the village."
"You don't admit it," Dana said, "I'll go to the village now and confront your people."
Lao Sha felt that Dana was taking the dwarf to find the villagers, and he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell, so he had a group of people and walked to the village.
When they arrived at the village, Dana, Lao Sha and the others saw a large group of people standing at the entrance of the village, as if they knew they were coming, they deliberately waited for them.
Dana asked the second son to throw the dwarf to the ground, and said to the villagers, "We are here to ask, what were you doing in the forest last night, and where did the other two children go?"
这些村民都木然的看着大拿，老沙警觉起来，他看到村民慢慢的把自己和大拿等人给围住，而且有几个人都在慢慢向村口移动。
老沙想提醒大拿，昨天晚上是村子里的人，现在硬着干，绝对讨不了好，可是大拿还没有给老沙说话的机会，就指着村民说：“你们昨天晚上在林子装神弄鬼，我都看见了，别在我面前不承认。”
这句话不说倒还罢了，大拿说了之后，二三十个村民已经不动声色的把大拿、老沙、黑小、二子四人给围住。
“光天化日的，你们还想动武吗？”大拿愤愤不平的说。
老沙心里都急死了，你大拿的确是有一身本事，可是我和两个啥都不会的保安咋办，总不能你一个人脱身，把我们给撂在这里吧。而且很明显，这些村民的脸色木然，但是眼睛都露出冷光，这绝不是好事情。
就在大拿和村民们对峙，气氛紧张的时候，一个四十多岁的村民走到了人群中，慢慢把手中的锄头给放下，看起来就像是一个早上去干农活，路过这里看热闹的人，挤进了人群。
可是老沙心里却暗暗叫苦，这人走进来的时候，那些村民都下意识的向两边避让。证明这人，在村子里身份非同小可，若是真的是个普通的村子就还罢了，根据他们昨晚的作为，老沙心里已经几乎可以确认，很显然，他们都不是普通的农民。
这个四十岁的汉子走到大拿身前，死死的盯着大拿看。
大拿被看得心虚，问这个汉子，“你是谁，是村长吗？”
汉子摇摇头。
黑小在一旁轻声的说：“这个村子没有村长村支书呢，一直就没有主事的人。”
老沙心里就想，一个村子没有村长，那还能说明什么问题，那就是这个村子就是个宗族体系，根本就不认可政府安排的村长，说了算的，就是村子里的族长。
那个汉子走到大拿跟前，轻轻的说：“我们村里的事情，跟你无关，你回去吧。”
老沙不等大拿回答，立即说：“好的，我们马上就走。”
“走之前，”汉子说，“你们得忘记点东西。”
老沙立即明白汉子的意思，连忙说：“昨晚的事情，我们不向人提起。”
大拿就说：“看见的东西怎么能够说忘就忘了。”
老沙恨不得把大拿的嘴巴给堵上，心里说，你这个笨蛋，暂时答应一下不就完了，只要能脱身，应付一下又能怎样。
但是已经不可能有这个机会了。那个汉子向身边的村民点点头，几个村民跑了开去，过了一会，四个村民用杠子扛过来一个东西，走近后。老沙一看，果然是个石头，那个石敢当。老沙心里就想，昨晚他们做法事的石头，根本就没弄到地下，而是跟着人走的，村民到那里，这个石头就跟着到哪里。
“我忍得你！”大拿大声喊：“你不就是昨晚那个跳大神的吗，你的面具呢？”
那个汉子听了这句话，脸色就阴沉下来。
老沙心里就在想，这些村民一定会用什么办法让自己和大拿，还有黑小、二子忘记昨晚的事情。这个石敢当不是他妈的镇邪的，是让人心智混乱的东西。
大拿还没有意识到事情已经到了不可收拾的地步，连黑小和二子都知道事情不妙了。可是大拿还是对着那个汉子说：“你搬个石头来干嘛，你又要神神叨叨的做法事？”
大拿还要说下去，却说不出话来了。
那个汉子脸上突然就戴上了一个面具，速度之快，跟川剧的变脸一样。这个面具，就是昨天晚上这群村民在空地上做祭拜的面具：两个弯角，一对獠牙。
这面具在清晨的阳光下，看起来比在黑也里更加的诡异。
“石头，石头。”黑小和二子指着那个石敢当。
老沙看见石敢当，弥漫出一股白雾出来，难道昨晚的那些雾瘴都是从石敢当里面冒出来的？老沙和大拿都吸入了白雾，脑袋里顿时昏沉沉的。老沙心里明白不妙，连忙止住呼吸。看见黑小和二子两个人顿时神情迷茫，一副不知所措的样子。大拿却没有任何反应，对着那个汉子大喊：“你在变什么戏法。”
黑小和二子两人已经呆呆的站立，上来两个村民，把他们给给架起来，不知道要送到什么地方。而过来架老沙的村民，却被老沙连续用肘击给打的蹲下去。
但是老沙发现自己的脑袋越来越迷糊，已经没有过多的力量去反抗。隐约看到大拿正冲向那个汉子，要动手了。
可是村民一拥而上，把大拿狠狠的挤在中间。大拿把这些人连续的打倒，然后走到那个汉子跟前，快速出了一拳，汉子身体向后飞出去几米，那个面具也脱落下来。大拿走到汉子的身边，这才发现，这个汉子的面具脱落之后，脸上也不是刚才的面貌。而是一个枯皱的干巴脸皮，紧紧的贴在颧骨上，这是一张十分苍老的面孔，嘴唇干枯萎缩，遮掩不住牙齿，牙齿也都是褐黄色，稀稀拉拉，鼻子只有两个鼻孔，眼睛也是干涸的，没有眼皮和眉毛。
原来这个汉子没有戴面具之前，也是一张假脸。大拿被副模样给吓的愣了一下。然后耳朵里突然听到“咚”的一声，心神立即被震慑。这是旁边的村民在用一个牛皮鼓在猛烈的敲打。
大拿被鼓声给震动一下，身体无法在积聚力量。那个露出真实面貌的汉子，慢慢爬起身，拍打身上的尘土，慢慢的走向那个石敢当。再转身面对大拿的时候，脸上又戴上了一个面具，那个青面獠牙的面具。大拿这才明白，这个人比林子里的那个侏儒要厉害的多。
老沙看到大拿被鼓声控制的时候，知道今天肯定是要认栽了，心里一阵可笑，自己本来是个贼，来这里做小偷，没想到却因为自己的保安身份被这些村民给对付了，关键是整个事情莫名其妙的被卷入进来。真是非常不值得。
就在老沙的身体被两个村民架起来的时候，老沙好像耳边听到了警笛的声音。然后听见大拿一声大喊，接着就是什么都不知道了。
大拿看见一辆警车颠颠簸簸的开了过来，高兴坏了，对着警察大喊打招呼。
警车开到大拿身边，村民们纷纷散开，警车上跳下来几个警察，和一个领导模样的人。
“刘所长！”大拿惊喜的喊，“你怎么知道我在这里。”
警察都穿着制服，村民无论多么厉害，都是怕官的。只能在警察的驱赶下，离开大拿和老沙四人，怨恨的看着他们。
刘所长五十多岁，一脸的严肃，看见大拿了，恶狠狠的对大拿说：“小李，你当初答应我什么来着？”
“把厂子守好。”大拿畏畏缩缩的回答。
“那你现在人在哪里，”刘所长逼问，“你在厂子里吗？”
“他们，他们吧两个孩子藏起来了。”
“你为什么不报警，通知我们来处理？”刘所长生气起来，“你只是个保安，你的职责是守着厂子，你真的以为你是警察？”
大拿没法回答了，只好不做声。
刘所长掏出一支烟，自己点燃抽起来，绕着老沙黑小二子转了一圈，“你自己玩忽职守就算了，还带着同事出来瞎胡闹，要不是我今天到厂里来看看情况，还不知道你媒体到底在做些什么。”
大拿赌气的说：“好吧，这事我不管了，反正少了两个孩子，您看着办吧？”
刘所长对着身边的一个村民问：“你们这里走丢了两个孩子，为什么不通知派出所？”
那个村民已经恢复了老实本分的样子，低着头不敢回答。那个刚才脸上皱皱巴巴，容貌可怖的汉子走到刘所长跟前——现在他的脸又变成了中年男人的模样。
老沙突然清醒过来，正好就看见来了警察和村民站在一起。又看到黑小和二子也清醒过来了。
那个汉子也不说话，看着刘所长。
“到底有没有孩子走丢？”刘所长对着村民们喊。
“没有孩子走丢。”那个汉子的声音十分嘶哑。
“你们瞎说，”大拿喊，“黑小，二子，你们告诉刘所长，到底这么回事。”
黑小和二子一脸茫然，同时说：“我们告诉刘所长什么事情？”
“小孩走丢的事情啊！”
“我不记得有这事啊。”黑小挠着脑袋，对着二小说，“有这事吗？”
二小迷迷怔怔的摇头。
大拿傻了，因为他熟悉黑小和二子的性格，虽然这两个人平时做事不着调，但是都还是实诚人，不会撒谎。于是走到老沙跟前，“你说说，昨晚我们在黑林子里找孩子的事情，你是亲眼看到的。”
老沙这个老江湖，看到刚才的情形，早就做好了准备，也故意做出迷茫的神色说：“什么黑林子……什么小孩……”
大拿退了一步，对着刘所长说：“他们被村子里的人给灌了迷药，都不记得了。”然后指着那个石敢当说，“刚才这个石敢当冒出了烟雾，就是这个东西闹的。”
刘所长把手扬起来，做出要打大拿的动作，“你闹够了没有！”
大拿弯下腰，在石敢当上上下下左左右右看了个遍，也没发现什么烟雾出来。
“你还在弄什么？”刘所长说，“厂里都乱成一团糟了，你太让我失望了。”
“两个孩子走丢了？”大拿仍旧不依不饶。
“那两个孩子，”刘所长说，“这个村里的户籍我知道，就九个孩子。你说说那两个孩子不见了。”
“我也不知道，我是听黑小说的。”大拿说，“但是我真的看见他们把两个孩子弄到黑林子里的地下去了。”
刘所长对那个汉子说：“你们村儿真的走丢孩子了？”
汉子摇头。
“那个黑林子不能有孩子进去的，”大拿说，“进去就走丢。”
刘所长气的恨不得要打大拿，“你好歹是当过兵的人，怎么相信这些鬼玩意。”
汉子冷冷看着大拿，这时候已经有村民带着几个小孩过来，走到大拿跟前，大拿挨着数数，不多不少，正好是九个小孩，六男三女。
“你还有什么话好说。”刘所长指着大拿，一脸的气愤。
这下大拿就没话好说了。只能呆呆看着刘所长。
刘所长对着大拿说：“你还嫌你惹事没惹够是不是？”
大拿吧头给低着，又看了看哪个汉子，他心里明白这个村子里有问题，而且两个孩子肯定是走丢了，至于因为什么原因又突然回来了，想破他脑袋也这么都想不通。
不仅是大拿想不通，老沙也在一旁惊讶的很。这个村子，看来刘所长其实很关注的，不然他不可能非常了解这个村子里到底有几个孩子，指不定村子里所有人的户籍档案他都了然于心。
一个偏僻的村子能让当地派出所的所长惦记上，只能印证一个问题，这个村子的确有古怪。
老沙想到这里，突然意识到，这个刘所长，其实是知道村子出了事的，不然怎么会早不来，晚不来，就在大拿和自己被村民控制的时候，就出现了。
还有，刚才自己和黑小、二子没石头里的烟雾弄得迷迷怔怔的，头脑眩晕，可是刘所长抽了根烟，绕着三个人走了一圈，自己立即就清醒过来。老沙连忙看向刘所长，发现他嘴上叼的香烟已经没有了。
老沙现在心里跟明镜似的，原来这个刘所长心里明白着呢，他不仅知道这村子里有古怪，可能知道很多东西。别看刘所长在不停的骂大拿，实际上在大拿和自己四个人脱身。
一个连派出所所长都顾忌的村子，出现一些奇怪的事情，就十分好解释了。
刘所长仍旧和那个汉子对峙，现在老沙已经十分肯定，这个汉子，就是村子里的头，平日里是村民的族长，昨天晚上他就是祭祀的带头人。
“既然小孩子没丢，”刘所长眼睛看着村民，其实嘴里对着那个汉子说，“这几个保安，我就带回去了。”
那个汉子眼睛看向大拿，脸上十分的犹豫。老沙知道，他以为除了大拿，自己和黑小、二子的脑袋已经被他用雾瘴给弄迷糊了，忘记了昨晚的事情。但是大拿还记得昨晚在黑林子的经历，他不愿意让大拿就这么走。
刘所长吩咐手下的警察，搀扶老沙黑小和二子上了警车，警车是个面包车，能够挤下这么多人。然后刘所长把大拿的胳膊一拎，“跟我回去！”
汉子一脸的阴郁，看着六所长和大拿最后上了车，并没有说话，也没有做什么举动。
刘所长让开车的警察发动汽车，对着窗外的汉子说：“以后有什么麻烦事，尽管来找我，要相信警察嘛。”
警车顺着来路，开出村外，向着虎符镇行驶。当刘所长坐回到座位上的时候，老沙看见他长长的的嘘一口气，额头上的汗水，把几缕头发都粘在皮肤上。
从上了车之后，刘所长就不像刚才那样数落大拿，而是十分沉默，看着窗外。
老沙从口袋里掏出香烟给刘所长，让老沙没有预料的是，刘所长把香烟给接到手上，并且抽起来。老沙这个举动没有达到目的，他以为刘所长是不会抽烟的，这就让他无法去确定，自己刚才清醒过来，是不是真的和刘所长的那颗香烟有关。
“他叫老沙，”大拿连忙跟刘所长介绍，“我刚招来的保安，上班没多久。”
“嗯。”刘所长点点头，“钢厂里的保卫工作任务很艰巨，的确是需要人手，老沙，要辛苦你们了。”
老沙笑着点头，躲避刘所长的眼光。
车又开了一会，刘所长放佛是又想起来要教训大拿，“我给你们领导打招呼，让你做队长，你当初是怎么答应我的。”
“把钢厂守护好，在北京的专家过来之前，不让钢厂范围内出现问题。”大拿老实的回答。
“今天的事情就算了，”刘所长声音变得不再恶狠狠的，“你今后就老老实实的在厂里面呆着，别到处乱跑瞎胡闹。”
刘所长的警车开到了钢厂，然后回县城。大拿和老沙，黑小，二子回到厂里。厂里面的保安都乱作一团，原来是泵机房的出了问题，那个水井不停车往外喷水，从昨天下半夜一直喷到现在，而且水腥臭无比，现在流的到处都是。
原来刚好是刘所长到虎符镇来看看钢厂的安保情况，刚好就遇到了这群保安，围在泵机房看着喷水，于是问大拿去哪里了。那几个跟着老沙去了黑林子，身上痒的保安，就说大拿到了黑林子里。刘所长就问大拿去黑林子干嘛去了，保安就说是去找孩子。刘所长就走了。估计是在黑林子里没发现什么，就去了村子。
大拿听了保安这么一说，就知道了刘所长突然到村子里的原因。老沙心里就想，刘所长一定是知道黑林子的古怪，而且知道大拿和自己并不在黑林子，而且大拿在村子里遇到危险，于是立即赶过去解围。
老沙完全能够确认这一点，因为刘所长和那个村里的汉子，虽然没怎么说话，但是接触的时候，两个人的神情，一看就知道是相互认识的，以前一定还打过交道。
大拿一看天亮了，就安排了几个保安上班，自己回到值班室去睡觉。老沙拉住黑小，“那个刘所长，到底是个什么来头，他和大拿是什么关系？”
黑小和二子两人打着呵欠，说是要重新找个地方租房子睡觉，那个村子肯定是不会回去睡觉了。
老沙连忙邀请他们去吃早饭，两个人这才勉强答应。三个人到了钢厂门口不远处的一个早点摊子，早点摊生意不错，但是只有一个老头在忙活，他也没有请帮工，就自己一个人做生意。
老沙叫了几根油条，三碗豆浆，于是几个人坐下啦吃早饭。
黑小这才把刘所长和大拿之间的关系说了。
原来大拿以前在部队当兵，当新兵的时候连长就是刘所长——那时候是刘连长。大拿能吃苦，又有一身本事，所以在军队里很突出，刘连长就很喜欢大拿，做为领导，很关照他。不过大拿当兵第二年的时候，刘连长军官专业，到了虎符镇所在的县里做警察，做了一年的文职之后，分配到一个派出所的所长，刚好这个派出所管辖的范围就有虎符镇，虎符镇本来是有一个派出所的，只是钢厂萧条之后，镇上的人口越来越少，县里财政紧张，就吧虎符镇的派出所给撤了，和其他的两个镇并成一个管辖区，就是刘所长的管辖的区域。
后来大拿也转业，刘所长就把大拿给弄到了钢厂做保安。
“以刘所长和大拿的关系，”老沙好奇的说，“他把大拿安排到派出所做警察应该不难啊，为什么把大拿弄到这里做保安？”
“你这话就说道点子上了，”二子说，“大拿本来在部队是不打算转业的，他有本事，可是他在他们全军区一次格斗锦标赛，冠亚军的时候，把对手打成了重伤，结果被赶出部队，只好来投靠刘所长，刘所长一看他是强制性复员，地方根本就不给安排工作的，想当警察是难上加难，只好把大拿安排这个钢厂里做保安。这都是大拿自己告诉我们的，他还说了，如果他够努力，表现好，刘所长承诺过他，还是有机会被警察队伍吸收进去的。”
老沙笑着说：“怪不得这个小子一心想着找孩子呢，原来是想立功。”
老沙心里有事，匆匆吃了早点，就向黑小和二子告辞，自己走到镇上。
镇上的一些居民正在三三两两的议论钢厂冒水的事情，都是一副神秘的表情。老沙故意走进听，隐约听见他们在说什么：
“底下的东西要被放出来了……”
“前些日子，挖出瓷器就不是好事……”
“旁边山沟里的村子，那个神棍就说过那个挖掘机的司机要倒霉……”
“那司机真的倒霉了，现在疯了，在镇上呢……”
“对啊，天天在垃圾堆翻东西吃，要不是大龙家常菜的老板看他可怜，他早饿死了……”
这几个居民看见老沙正在偷听他们的话，立即就不做声了。
老沙尴尬的走过去，在街上又转悠了一圈，来到神偷和嫣儿的房间门口。
老沙想了想，轻轻的敲门。
没过多久，门开了神偷带着老沙走进房间。老沙看到神偷脸色苍白，神情低迷，房间里一片狼藉，设备的外壳都被拆了，零件和电线裸露出来，都被摊在地上。嫣儿就在这堆设备中间跪着，用手一个个的摆弄。老沙也看到本来放在桌上的笔记本也被拆开。
“遇到麻烦了？”老沙问神偷。
神偷说：“东西都坏了，这些设备突然出现了问题。”
“这些设备到底是做什么的？”老沙实在是忍不住问了，“你怎么跑到林子去安装什么探测头，是不是就是这个玩意。”
神偷和嫣儿的眼神交流一下，老沙急了，对神偷说：“昨天晚上林子里的事情，你也已经看到了，这事如果你们两人还是这么对我藏着掖着，我就真的没必要再跟你们合作下去。”
嫣儿笑了笑，“老沙不是说不懂这些高科
