It is said that people who are eaten by tigers will become ghosts and be controlled by tigers.

Could it be that this old man was turned into a ghost by Xiaohu?

That little tiger is quite awesome.

The fact is just as Lin Mo speculated, the old man who was devoured by the tiger is a ghost.

Now it is under the control of the little tiger, and it will do whatever it is told to do.

"Okay, you tell me, start from the beginning and don't miss anything!"

Lin Mo found that he had not always suffered a loss before, at least he had killed one of the opponents, and he had also been turned into a puppet by Xiaohu.

Now Lin Mo could finally find out some secrets about Carpenter Zhang.

And the mother-in-law corpse.

Lao Ba obviously didn't want to say it, but since he had become a demon, let alone reveal the secret, he would still do it even if he was asked to kill his close relatives with a knife.

This does not depend on will.

Next, Lin Mo learned an incredible story.

Carpenter Zhang was indeed in the same group as those tomb robbers, and he was the second in charge, the handsome little villain that Lin Mo saw just now.

About a hundred years ago, China was in chaos and order was broken. In order to make ends meet, many people began to do evil things that were harmful to nature.

This tomb robber heard that there was a large tomb near Guimen Village, so he wanted to make a fortune.

But at that time, Guimen Village was located outside Qianlong City. It was the territory of a certain big warlord, and tomb robbers did not dare to make a big show of it. At that time, if good things were dug out, it would be troublesome to transport them out.

This group of tomb robbers also had their own tricks. After observing, their second-in-command decided to lurk in Guimen Village.

In order to be lurking and have an identity, the Second Master happens to know an ancient method, which can skin people and disguise them as the other person, making it difficult to tell the real person from the fake one.

So the real Carpenter Zhang had already done something wrong.

During those few days, the second master pretended to be Carpenter Zhang, and under the guise of going out to work, he searched everywhere and finally found the entrance to the tomb.

After that, the task of digging holes and robbing tombs was handed over to other accomplices, while he himself returned to the village and prepared to use the prepared coffins to deliver the treasures under the pretense of delivery.

This plan can be said to be seamless.

Carpenter Zhang is a craftsman, and no one would suspect him of transporting things.

At that time, his disguise skills were so good that even if people in the village saw it, they would not be able to see any flaws at all.

But there is one person who can see it.

That is Carpenter Zhang's wife.

The night before the baby was shipped back, Carpenter Zhang's wife could not see her husband for several days. She was worried and went to the place where Carpenter Zhang worked to look for him.

As a result, I discovered the clue after seeing ‘Carpenter Zhang’.

One can imagine how the second boss could let this woman go.

The second master was also cruel. He thought of an extremely vicious method, which was to beat the woman violently and pull out her tongue, leaving her speechless.

Then he poured dirty water on these poor women, saying that she had committed adultery with others.

As for the target of adultery, it was too easy to find a few refugees in that environment at that time.

The result was that the innocent woman died unjustly and sank to the bottom of the river in despair and resentment. Coincidentally, after she sank into the river, the tomb robbers brought the treasures found from the ancient tomb back to Guimen Village.

.

What they didn't expect was that there was a source of nightmare pollution.

Therefore, Mrs. Zhang who died unjustly became the nightmare of the second master. Not only him, but also the villagers who participated in the sinking of the river at that time, there were also people who received money from the second master, knowing that Mrs. Zhang might have been wronged.

But for those gold and silver things, they destroyed their conscience.

Therefore, after the nightmare pollution, their fear and guilt directly turned Zhang Carpenter's wife into the most terrifying nightmare in Guimen Village.

A lot of things happened that night, and Lao Ba didn't know much about it. As for the bodies of the mother and daughter, they were the ones who brought them out of the ancient tomb.

Hearing this, Lin Mo was stunned.

"Are you sure you were digging an ancient tomb?"

"Yes, at least eight hundred years ago!"

"Is there a female corpse inside?"

Lao Ba shook his head, and then nodded: "It was a coffin at the time, and I didn't know what was inside. But before we opened it, we were contaminated by evil spirits. We didn't know it at the time, but while we were eating and drinking, a few hired porters suddenly

He went crazy and started killing people. I wasn't paying attention at the time and was stabbed in the heart with a knife, and then I ended up in this hellish place."

Lao Ba's narration was actually a bit confusing, with some random sentences here and there, but Lin Mo pieced it together by himself and roughly figured out what happened.

They were responsible for digging out the treasures in the ancient tombs, while the second master was responsible for the logistics. Because they were hit by Zhang, they had no choice but to kill and silence them. As a result, when their companions came back the next day, they brought back nightmare contaminants.

As a result, Guimen Village became a polluted area. That night, someone was affected by the pollutants, turned into a madman, and started killing people indiscriminately.

Lin Mo remembered that he saw Widow Liu who was doing laundry before, with a knife stuck in the back of her neck.

He was probably killed that night as well.

It stands to reason that people in the contaminated area can continue to live in the nightmare world and maintain normal memories. Except that they cannot wake up, they are no different from normal living people.

But the villagers here are obviously different.

They have no memory, and some even retain their appearance and wounds when they died.

For example, Widow Liu, such as A Bin.

They are more like real 'ghosts'.

But I know something about this.

"The villagers were normal at first, and some didn't even know they were dead. But then the woman in the river came back. Every time she came back, the villagers would change. Over time, the villagers became like this.

Son."

"Then why are you okay?" Lin Mo asked.

"Because that woman can't come in. In the whole village, we are the only place where she can't come in." Lao Ba answered truthfully.

Lin Mo thought of the black dog blood line and peach wood chips at the door of Carpenter Zhang's house. No need to ask, these were things to prevent Carpenter Zhang's wife from coming in.

However, Lin Mo felt that just those few black dog blood threads and peach wood chips could not stop Shenhe's evil ghost for a hundred years.

There must be other reasons for this.

For example, those tomb robbers used the corpses of mother and daughter to prevent Carpenter Zhang’s wife from entering the yard.

Didn't I almost get killed by the corpses of my mother and daughter just now?

To be honest, Lin Mo felt that if these two things fought, the corpse of the mother and the daughter would be more powerful. Although he had not fought against Zhang Carpenter's wife, this was the feeling.

Lao Ba said that they did use the mother and daughter corpses, but they did not dare to use this monster too much.

"The boss said that it is a real evil thing. If you can't use it, don't use it unless you have no choice..." Lao Ba ranked eighth in this gang.

His status was not high, so he only knew that the bodies of his mother and daughter were dug out of ancient tombs and crawled out of coffins. He didn't know much more.

Lin Mo asked about the theater troupe again.

This is also an extremely strange thing in Guimen Village. Judging from the current situation, the role of the theater troupe should be to stabilize the situation.

Every day, the troupe will sing an opera, and when the opera is performed, the three most terrifying nightmares of the entire village, including Brother Man, the wild man who was beaten to death with sticks, and Zhang Carpenter's wife, will be calmed down.

Watch the show honestly.

If this is really the case, then who brought the troupe in? And who took the lead?

Lin Mo had no idea about this matter before, but while listening to Lao Ba's story, he noticed one detail.

That was the second boss pretending to be Carpenter Zhang.

The other party is proficient in the art of disguise and can peel off people's faces.

Lin Mo immediately thought of the faces of the missing experts he had seen on the table in the theater troupe.

Theater troupe, is it related to the second master?

Lin Mo asked Lao Ba, but Lao Ba didn't know anything about it. He even said that he didn't even know there was such a thing as a theater troupe.

"We have been trapped in Zhang Carpenter's yard and can't get out at all. Is there a troupe outside? What are they singing?" Lao Ba asked curiously.

Lin Mo glanced at Xiaohu.

He knew that it was impossible for a demon to lie after being eaten by a tiger cub and spit out.

I really don't know.

It seems that the Tomb Robbers are not monolithic within themselves.

There are more things that Lao Ba can't explain.

Lin Mo asked Xiaohu to swallow this guy back. Xiaoyu and Xiaohu would need to rest and recuperate. They would not be used in the next battle.

However, if this happens, Lin Mo's combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.
