Chapter 107 Water Festival
The cold rain falls, and the wind blows, spreading the coolness.
Miao Yue: "Are all the corpses we saw before really all of them? It is very likely that some of them have already left here and gone to other villages, towns, or cities..."
These words made everyone present feel a chill in their hearts, as if they were thrown into an ice bucket.
[Oh my god… don’t scare me in the middle of the night aaaaaaaaaah]
[That is to say, some people around us may not be human anymore and are trying to pollute us? ? ? 】
What a fake person! 】
[I told you this show shouldn’t be watched at night. I live with someone and there’s a roommate who can’t understand a word people say. I really suspect she’s a fake person now.]
[My bladder is about to explode, but I really don’t dare to move, ah ah ah ah]
Qi Gu remained calm: "Don't forget, it takes a long time for the infection to take place. After all, Fang Yuanwang and Bai Yu have been teaching for two years. The accident happened a year ago, and he didn't notice anything unusual. In other words, this transformation will take at least two years."
"The people of Huaishui Village are all Chinese citizens. Everyone has an ID card. In the era of big data, travel records, purchase records, and where people have been can all be clearly seen by the authorities." Lin Hanzhi added.
It's not like he hasn't encountered such incidents before, and Lin Hanzhi handled them personally, so he is very familiar with the process.
Pubugesang and Mu Xingchen blinked together as they watched the three people discussing the clues, with clear stupidity in their eyes.
[Thanks to the country and the government, otherwise I really wouldn’t be able to sleep]
【+1】
[With the development of technology, it is becoming increasingly difficult to escape after committing a crime]
[I hope we can find out as soon as possible and control them, otherwise I will still feel uneasy]
[Speaking of which, our country should really have the legendary agency responsible for supernatural events, right? This kind of thing is too dangerous. If it is not handled by special talents, I dare not imagine how many casualties there will be.]
[Should be?] 】
[I feel that Sister Miao is quite suspicious (whispering)]
【really】
[If you say so, I have to bring up the previous remarks made by Xiao Haige that affected his career. Besides, he and Miao Jie are old acquaintances and work well together. It is hard to say that they are not colleagues.]
[Hiss… Oh my god, he really has a career in politics.]
[If that's the case, I reasonably suspect that Xiaohaige's job title is higher than everyone here]
[Fuck, I'm really upset when you say that! 】
[In that case, there are two official people in this program... Can we say that the official is backing this program? 】
[Then is Gugu also one of them?] 】
[Definitely not. He was still a wild man in the zoo two months ago. How can someone in the system get by like this?]
[That makes sense, so our Gugu is outsourced now, right? 】
[This... This big factory is crying for outsourcing]
[So those things online about evil spirits becoming more powerful and the end of the world... are they true? 】
[Wow, you guys are so good at writing novels? 】
[This gives me goosebumps]
…
Headquarters of the Abnormal Management Bureau, Civilian Affairs Group.
The staff member who is always monitoring public opinion looked at the similar discussions that have emerged on the Internet in recent days and curled his lips: "Team leader, now the society has noticed this content. We just need to continue to invest in related news, and we should be able to achieve our goal soon."
The preliminary propaganda work has been completed. What we need to do next is to slowly lay the groundwork, let everyone believe and gradually adapt to suspicion, and finally slowly reveal the truth to prevent the people from falling into sudden and huge panic, and then provide everyone with effective defense methods at this time.
This is a very common strategy.

The group continued walking towards the back mountain, but when they reached the narrow path that was about to turn into the back mountain, they heard noisy, irregular, and incoherent footsteps behind them. What was strange was that the footsteps basically stopped after one step, followed by the sound of sand and clothes, or some blunt object rubbing against each other.
It's very irregular, and they shouldn't be the villagers who have been completely transformed just now.
"Hide." Qi Gu said immediately.
Upon hearing this, everyone dived into the half-man-high grass. Fortunately, it was raining, so even if there was some rustling noise coming from the grass, the sound of the rain would completely cover it up.
Mu Xingchen and Lin Hanzhi held up their filming equipment and stole out from the bushes.
The audience was very grateful for their professionalism.
[No, why don’t you let me watch it instead of watching it yourself? ? ? 】
[Ahhhh help me, with this shot, I think your production crew wants to scare me to death and get me to inherit my Huabei Baitiao]
[Help me, this perspective is so immersive, it's like I'm squatting in the bushes waiting to see a ghost]
As the audience chattered, the voices grew closer.
Then, a dozen villagers who looked no different from ordinary people but were drenched in the rain and had dull expressions appeared on the path. Every time they took a step, they would kneel on the ground and kowtow in a prostrate posture. Many of them had bloody heads, with tiny stones and mud embedded in the wounds.
The contaminated little girl whom I had seen during the day was also among them, but she was completely blocked by the adults' figures, and one had to look very carefully to find her.
They were oblivious to everything around them, whether it was the rain, the camera, or the squatting people; they just knelt devoutly, taking one step at a time, performing their own sacrifice.
A twisted and weird atmosphere arises spontaneously.
[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, this scene isn't really scary, but it just makes me feel numb]
[It feels very Chinese horror]
[Why are there footsteps in the corridor at this time...]
[Oh shit, I just heard footsteps in the room. When I looked carefully, I found it was my own cat. I was scared to death. As a punishment, I will not give it any cat food today! 】
[Cats make noises when they walk, which is good. People who don’t feed cats cat food are bad.]
Only after the group of people slowly walked away and disappeared from the camera did everyone emerge from the bushes.
Lin Hanzhi said: "These should be villagers who have not been completely transformed and can still be saved."
"Okay." Qi Gu said with his eyes downcast.
At least not all the people in the village were gone.
Miao Yue held a knife in her hand, and obviously wanted to rush over to stop them: "I'll go tie them up? Who of you has a rope?"
"Don't tie them all up. Leave one and see how they perform the sacrifice." Qi Gu said as he poured out a jingling iron chain from the gourd.
This thing looks very familiar, thought Miao Yue, who had dealt with ghosts from the underworld before.
"Is this a soul-enticing lock?"
Qi Gu looked at Miao Yue as if she was a fool: "It's used to lock the gate of our Taoist temple. Now we have upgraded our weapons and used new locks, so this one is out of use."
He had been struggling with how to go down the mountain to sell the scrap, so he just stuffed it into the gourd.
