Trembling At A High Altitude

Chapter 993

He Siying was about to get up and go over to say hello, and then follow her to have a look, when Mei Qiugui held her back.

"Don't cause trouble! That's their secret! The more secrets you know, the faster you will die!" Mei Qiugui shouted at He Siying in a low voice.

"Oh." He Siying quickly squatted down again.

Soon Dean Zhao and the others left the backyard and went to the back mountain.

"I'll sneak over to see what they are doing." Li Teng said to the other three.

In horror movies, Mei Qiugui's approach is okay. The more careful you are, the longer you can live.

However, doing tasks is different.

If you keep silent and can't get any clues, the final result is to wait for death.

Therefore, worship events like this related to the main mission line must be observed.

After hearing what Li Teng said, Fang Jianguo immediately said that he would also go there and have a look. He wanted to find out what happened in his dream last night. He felt that his dream must be related to worshiping the God of Fire today. related.

He Siying pushed Mei Qiugui with her arm. Mei Qiugui frowned and said nothing. After a while, she stood up and followed Li Teng and He Siying.

"Follow me from a distance, but don't get too close. I'm sure the area is safe. I'm calling you and you can follow me." Li Teng said a few words to the other three.

"Okay." Fang Jianguo responded, and then stood still with Mei Qiugui and He Siying.

After Li Teng went to the iron gate in the backyard and confirmed it was safe, they followed him.

Li Teng walked forward while conducting reconnaissance. Dean Zhao did not leave anyone patrolling along the way, so Li Teng reached the foot of the hill easily.

Carefully and without making any noise, he climbed up the hillside and looked towards the cemetery on the other side of the hillside.

A group of people in white coats, under the command of Dean Zhao, placed various worship supplies.

In a short time, the altar was set up.

When the worship service began, Dean Zhao and those in white coats sang some kind of strange song, a bit like chanting.

There is at least a distance of thirty to forty meters between the altar built by Dean Zhao and others and the hillside.

Moreover, there are graves in the cemetery, and then there are open spaces between the graves. For those observing on the hillside, they can basically see everything at a glance.

It was safe for Li Teng to observe here. It was covered by the grass on the hillside. It was basically impossible to be discovered unless he made a big noise.

Li Teng waved to the three people behind him.

The three of them also climbed up the hillside and looked over together.

After the chanting, the people in white coats took out a paper dummy and pierced the dummy's heart with a wooden sword. Then they took out some bamboo nails and nailed the dummy to a splashing paper behind it. on the bloody cardboard.

Finally, they placed the dummy on a pile of firewood and ignited it.

"This doesn't feel like worshiping the God of Fire, but more like exorcising demons." After observing for a while, Li Teng whispered to Fang Jianguo next to him.

"What you said is true!" Fang Jianguo nodded.

After Dean Zhao and others completed the ceremony, they packed their things and prepared to return.

Li Teng and the others also quickly prepared to go down the hillside to avoid being discovered by Dean Zhao and others.

But just as they were passing through a cornfield, footsteps and shouts were heard from the backyard. Two people were pulling and shouting and walking towards this side.

A middle-aged woman and a young man, both of whom were also wearing white coats, looked like they should be staff in a mental hospital.

Dean Zhao and others were coming behind him. There was only one way to the backyard. Li Teng quickly called the other three to hide in the cornfield, squatting down to hide his figure.

"They have gone too far! Yingying is already dead, and they still won't let her go! Her soul will not be able to rest in peace! I must stop them!" The young man said to the middle-aged woman with a cry.

"Zhao Hu! Don't be willful anymore! Those who tried to help Zhao Ying get justice disappeared one after another! They must have been killed by Dean Zhao and the others! I don't know where they were buried! You have to speak for Yingying , you will be next!" The middle-aged woman persuaded and pulled the young man.

"Yingying is his daughter! As the saying goes, a tiger can't eat its own daughter, so why wouldn't he let go of his own daughter? He set up a fire and burned Yingying alive. How painful it must be for Yingying! Being killed by his own daughter How painful it must be to have your father burned to death! He is not a human being!" The young man named Zhao Hu was very angry.

"When Zhao Ying was alive, she didn't explicitly say she wanted to be with you. Now that she's dead, what's the point of standing up for her? Your mother entrusted me to take care of you. I can't watch you seek your own death! Don't go It's over! Their ceremony is almost over, there's no point in you going." The middle-aged woman continued to persuade and pull Zhao Hu.

While the two were pulling each other, Dean Zhao and others walked over from the back mountain and happened to see the two of them in the corn field.

The four people hiding in the cornfield held their breath and did not dare to move. They observed the situation outside and listened to the speeches outside through the gaps between the corn leaves.

"Zhao Hu! What are you doing here?" Zhao Deng saw Zhao Hu and asked Zhao Hu fiercely.

"You killed Yingying! You burned her alive! She must die a good death!" Zhao Hu cursed at Zhao Deng and others.

The middle-aged woman wanted to reach out and cover Zhao Hu's mouth, but unfortunately Zhao Hu was too strong and tall, so the middle-aged woman couldn't cover it at all.

"What are you talking nonsense about? Yingying committed suicide. The dean has announced the cause of her death. If you continue to talk nonsense like this, we will have to put you in the ward!" Zhao Deng threatened Zhao Hu.

"Really? I will disappear mysteriously next, right? Hum! God is watching what you do! Don't think that outsiders don't know what you are doing here. I heard that an investigation team has been sent over to investigate! Your evil deeds will be exposed to the sun sooner or later!" Zhao Hu said sadly and angrily.

"Investigation team? Those four cowards? Haha, I'm afraid they can't protect themselves. It's hard to say whether they can survive until the day after tomorrow! Investigation? Investigation is a ghost!" Zhao Deng looked disdainful.

The four people in the cornfield looked at each other.

There is a mystery in Zhao Deng's words. It seems that this Zhao Deng must know something.

The day after tomorrow, when the mission is almost over, Zhao Deng thinks that the four of them will not survive the day after tomorrow?

Li Teng had an idea in mind.

That is to find an opportunity to catch this Zhao Deng, 'question' him carefully, and ask him to explain this sentence clearly.

"Dean Zhao, she is your daughter, why did you burn her alive? Don't you feel bad for her?" Zhao Hu stopped paying attention to Zhao Deng and instead questioned Dean Zhao.

Chapter 994

"Which of your eyes saw me burning her alive? It seems that you really have a mental problem. I have to find someone to arrange treatment for you." Dean Zhao became a little angry when he heard Zhao Hu's words.

"Tiger venom will not eat its seeds! Dean Zhao, do you think you are a normal person? Are you worthy of being a parent? I am very normal! It is you people who are abnormal!" Zhao Hu became even more sad and angry.

"Zhao Hu, you know nothing! Yingying is not Dean Zhao's daughter at all! She is a bastard!" Zhao Qiang, who was beside Zhao Deng, suddenly spoke. At first glance, this Zhao Qiang seems to be a relatively dull type.

"Hey! What are you talking about?" Several people around Dean Zhao tried to stop Zhao Qiang. The face of a woman next to Dean Zhao became very ugly.

"Isn't this already an open secret? Why are you still hiding it? Does it make sense?" Zhao Qiang was puzzled.

"An open secret? Who told this?" Dean Zhao was really angry now and glanced at everyone around him.

"Zhao Qiang, tell me honestly, who did you listen to? If you didn't tell me, I would find out sooner or later." Zhao Deng questioned Zhao Qiang beside him.

"That bastard of hers will die if she dies. What does it matter who said it?" Zhao Qiang knew that he was in trouble and began to look down upon her.

"Try calling her 'bastard' again?" Zhao Hu suddenly rushed over and punched Zhao Qiang in the face.

"You dare to hit me? I turned against you!" Zhao Qiang was stunned for a moment, then punched Zhao Hu.

The others quickly forced them away.

"You don't take the rules I set seriously, do you? Put them both in the ward!" Dean Zhao ordered everyone.

A group of people in white coats swarmed up and controlled Zhao Hu and Zhao Qiang.

At this moment, an extremely strange scene happened.

The two men in white coats who were controlling Zhao Qiang suddenly screamed a few times as if they were burned, and then let go of Zhao Qiang.

Seeing this scene, others quickly stayed away from Zhao Qiang.

"Is it going to happen again?" Dean Zhao muttered to himself.

"Hey! What's going on with you? Why are you all running away?" Zhao Qiang stood alone in the middle of the road with a confused expression.

Next, Zhao Qiang let out an extremely shrill scream.

Through the gaps between the corn branches and leaves, Li Teng and others saw Yue Qiang's body suddenly smoldering.

Starting from his hands and feet, his body slowly smoldered into ashes piece by piece.

There was a well in the nearby backyard, but no one went to fetch water to save him. They all watched from a distance as he was burned into a pile of ashes.

Although Zhao Qiang was rolling on the grass in pain, the smoldering flames on his body did not ignite even a blade of grass.

"What's going on? What happened to him?" Zhao Hu was obviously different from others. He had never seen such a scene before.

"What is supposed to come will come eventually. You can't escape if you want to... Zhao Deng, the scene has been cleaned up. No one should tell anyone about what happened today." Dean Zhao gave an order to everyone.

"What should we do about Zhao Hu? He is not very obedient." Zhao Deng asked Dean Zhao for instructions.

"Lock him up first and then talk about it." Dean Zhao lowered his head and seemed to be in a very low mood.

"By the way, those investigators were washing vegetables in the backyard just now. They wouldn't have heard anything, right?" Zhao Deng reminded Dean Zhao a few words.

"They are smart people and know what they should care about and what they should not care about. They should be cooking and eating in the kitchen now. We will find out later when we go over and take a look." Dean Zhao answered Zhao Deng.

The four people in the cornfield suddenly became nervous.

Their dishes are still placed by the well! Is this obviously telling Dean Zhao that the four of them went somewhere else instead of washing vegetables and eating? How will you cover this lie then?

"Okay, when I pass by the kitchen later, I'll test their tone and see what they know." Zhao Deng nodded.

"Okay, you can go over there after you finish packing. I want to be alone." Dean Zhao waved his hand to Zhao Deng.

"Okay." Zhao Deng arranged for two men in white coats to find two iron pulleys from the vegetable field, shovel the ashes burned by Zhao Qiang into the nearby vegetable field and bury them.

After the scene was cleaned up, Zhao Deng shouted to the people in white coats, and then led Zhao Hu toward the backyard.

The middle-aged woman who was with Yue Hu kept saying good things to Zhao Deng, saying that Zhao Hu was too upright and had no bad intentions, and asked Zhao Deng and the others not to be offended, hoping that they could forgive Zhao Hu this time.

But Zhao Deng obviously didn't want to let Zhao Hu go.

Soon, everyone else walked away, and Dean Zhao was the only one left at the scene.

Dean Zhao lit a cigarette and stood on the path and started smoking.

"Life is not easy. There are some things that the less you know, the better!"

After smoking the cigarette, Dean Zhao sighed a few words and glanced into the cornfield.

Then, he dropped the cigarette butt, stamped it out on the ground and left.

…

"Have we been discovered by him?" Fang Jianguo said in a worried tone.

"Maybe?" Li Teng looked at the direction where Dean Zhao disappeared.

"I suspect that Dean Zhao is not a normal person. He always appears and disappears. He appears at any time and lives in the cemetery at night. Is he a ghost?" He Siying made some guesses.

"How are we going to tell this lie later? We should be eating in the kitchen now." Fang Jianguo asked Li Teng in a panic.

"Don't worry, since Dean Zhao knows that we overheard, he will explain the matter to Zhao Deng himself. Those words he just said may be a warning to us. But we can't stop here, we must continue the investigation. , otherwise, we won't survive the day after tomorrow." Li Teng answered Fang Jianguo.

"Why are these tasks so difficult? It has always been such a difficult task. When can we get rid of all the prison terms and return to the original world? I miss my wife and children." Fang Jianguo looked depressed.

Since last night's dream, he seemed to have changed. He was no longer so optimistic and cheerful on the surface, but had pessimism written directly on his face.

"Although the task is difficult, we already have clues." Li Teng seemed very optimistic.

"I'm still confused. Can you tell me? Do you have any clues?" Fang Jianguo asked.

"Are you still confused? Then you are too stupid!" He Siying said.

"If you're not stupid, tell me." Fang Jianguo looked at He Siying.

"All the cause and effect here should be related to the girl Zhao Ying who was burned to death. Dean Zhao found out that Zhao Ying was a bastard, so he put her on the fire and burned her alive. Now it's Zhao Ying's ghost who comes back to take revenge. , kill them one by one. Just now Zhao Qiang called her a bastard, but she was burned to ashes on the spot..."
