The leader in black robe made a stop gesture to them, and they stood together.

Jiang Dong came over with a serious expression, saw Lou Fan's appearance, and said, "You found it too?"

Wen Lang and Chen Shuyang were confused, even Nie Feng turned to look at them, Lou Fan nodded.

"What's the matter, don't play dumb."

Jiang Dong's voice was dry, and he whispered: "I think they are villagers, but they were skinned..." He couldn't help shaking when he spoke the last few words.

"what!"

Several people exclaimed in a low voice, and immediately covered their mouths, covering up to see the people who were still showing their hands.

They wore black robes, and most of them also wore a pair of black gloves. Only the two of them did not wear them. The exposed hands were pale red, as if the flesh and blood had been exposed to the air for a long time and felt dry. , there is a very obvious texture.

It's really like the kind of model that the hospital uses to show the human body's texture and skeleton. There is no skin, only flesh and blood.

This truth is a bit cruel, I thought it was just because the ghost in the lake came ashore and was forced to leave the village and enter the forest. But it would be tragic if it was driven into the forest after being skinned by a ghost.

"This can also explain why they wear black robes and gloves all the time. Black robes can block direct sunlight, and gloves are to reduce the friction between flesh and objects. Human skin is inherently delicate, let alone flesh and blood. , even in black robes, I think the friction of the fabric on them will make them feel very uncomfortable."

Just thinking about that feeling makes my teeth sore.

When the black-robed man came back, they all returned to their normal expressions without showing any extra expressions. The man in black robe took them to a hole next to them, and they were still the same five people.

"Have you seen those things in the village?" said one of the men in black robes.

His voice came from under the black robe, with an indistinguishable mechanical sound and the sound of zizi electric current. It should be some kind of voice changer, maybe too long and a little damp.

Qin Tan stood up and said to them, "Yes, we have seen them. They will enter the ghost lake at night until they come back again at dawn. They wear human skins and live in the village, but they don't walk around the village."

The black-robed man was silent.

Lou Fan asked: "Those things invaded the village and drove you away?"

The black-robed man shook his head without explaining.

Lou Fan thought about it and said: "Actually, we still have something to ask, but we can help you before that. What do you need our help with?"

Chen Man looked anxious on the side, tried to open his mouth several times to speak, but was suppressed.

After Loufan finished speaking, he couldn't help but ask: "We still have two companions, what did you do to them? Hurry up and hand them over."

Lou Fan stared, and wanted to knock his head off to see. Wen Lang directly pulled the man back and staggered.

"What are you doing!" Chen Man roared in dissatisfaction.

Wen Lang: "Why did you say I was asking for clues? Are you stupid?"

Chen Man gritted his teeth, "Then you can't ignore the captain!"

"Who said it doesn't matter, only saving Gao Yi is the most important thing? We don't need to get clues, so we won't go out?" Wen Lang mocked him, "And if Brother Lou said that if he wants to be saved, he must be saved. If you don't believe it, Then come on your own? Can you find this place? I don't know how many times you'll fall into the trap."

Chen Man was so angry that he didn't dare to speak, but Wen Lang was right at all, and he couldn't say anything to refute. Without the six of them, he wouldn't be able to protect himself, let alone save the captain.

After being said by Wen Lang, Chen Man shut up and shrank to the back.

The man in black robe heard this and said, "Are those two your companions?"

After he finished speaking, he went out, and came back in a while, and said to Qin Tan and the others, "We have nothing to help you. When your companions come out, you will leave."

Qin Tan stopped his words, "You should be the village chief, right? We want to know if there is a passage between the holy lake and the ghost lake, and how can we get through the passage?"

The black-robed man was silent. They didn't speak, and couldn't see their expressions, but the people on the opposite side knew that the man in black robe was staring at them.

"You want to know the passage between the holy lake and the ghost lake? What is your purpose?" The hoarse old voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, and every word was laborious.

Qin Tan calmly said: "Our purpose is to help you. I think that you will be so shameless because of the ghost lake. If the ghost lake can be turned into a holy lake, it will be a good thing for you."

"Captain Qin!"

Gao Yi's voice came, and he entered the cave in a blink of an eye. Seeing that everyone was there, Gao Yi breathed a sigh of relief, followed by Fan Dayong. The two appear normal, uninjured and in good spirits. Seeing Chen Man, Gao Yi walked over and patted his shoulder vigorously.

"I didn't expect you to come, Captain Qin, thank you so much." Gao Yi was full of gratitude.

Qin Tan also smiled, "You've been in for two days, and we don't have any clues outside. We always have to come in and take a look. It's all a matter of convenience. Don't be so polite."

Wen Lang snickered behind and said to Chen Shuyang, "Brother Qin is also very slippery now."

What this means is that we have a mission to do anyway, and it is easy to save you. If it is not easy, we will not necessarily take the initiative to save, so there is no need to thank you.

Chen Shuyang also laughed softly.

Jiang Dong and Nie Feng's drooping eyes met, with a hint of helplessness and doting in their eyes.

Gao Yi still smiled, as if he didn't understand the meaning.

The old voice said again: "You guys take a rest first, let me discuss with the villagers, and I will come to you again."

Gentleman Qin Tan stretched out his hand, "please."

Seeing the five men in black robes leave, Lou Fan said, "It seems that the old man is the head of the village."

Qin Tan nodded, "The old man should have used his own voice."

Jiang Dongdao: "They haven't spoken for too long, and their vocal cords have degenerated. I think they haven't spoken for many years."

Lou Fan looked around and saw that there were dozens of people in the cave, most of them were engrossed in their work and hardly communicated, so there was less time to actually speak.

It took some effort to find this place, and everyone sat down to eat to replenish their strength. Gao Yi sat with his two team members with a serious face, and their villagers gave them back their bags. Loufan several people sat together with a relaxed and happy expression.

He didn't make them wait too long. The man in black robe who used a voice changer to talk to them came in. He stood in front of Qin Tan and them. After standing still, he was silent for a moment.

Qin Tan and the others stood up immediately, the man in black robe turned to look at Gao Yi and the others who were still sitting firmly, and then raised their hands and pressed down on Qin Tan and the others.

"Sit down and listen to me."

He paused, sat next to him, and said slowly, "After we discussed it, we decided to tell you about the legend of the two lakes. A long time ago, it was said that the two holy lakes and the ghost lake were originally connected, but they were destroyed by a curse. Divided into two, the water of the holy lake is clear, refreshing and sweet, while the water of the ghost lake is black and inedible, once you drink the water of the ghost lake, humans or livestock will die."

"Our ancestors were expelled to live in the ghost lake because of their crimes. It was difficult to survive, but it was not impossible to survive. However, three generations ago, I didn't know what happened, and evil ghosts rushed up from the ghost lake and went ashore at night. Later……"

He stopped, silent.

No one bothered him, waiting quietly for him to speak again.

"In legend, as long as the holy lake and the ghost lake are connected, the water of the holy lake flows into the ghost lake, and the golden fish and blue fish swim into the ghost lake together, and the ghost lake will become like the holy lake, and the black water will become sweet. Clear holy water, and we'll go back to where we were..."

He turned his head and said to several people: "This is all the information we know, the passage is said to be in the holy lake."

Loufan listened quietly, thinking about it, and now asked, "Are the golden fish and blue fish also in the holy lake?"

The man in black robe said, "We have never seen these two kinds of fish."

As if he was accustomed to speaking again, his speaking frequency increased and became more proficient. Although the sound quality was still unpleasant, the sentences were very coherent.

Lou Fan tapped his fingers and thought, "Then, let's go to the Holy Lake to investigate first.

"I don't know how long it takes to get to the holy lake from here? Have you been there before?"

The man in black robe replied: "I went there once when I was a child. You follow the 'village chief' in the village. He will ring the bell. You must follow him closely and don't get scattered. After passing the checkpoint, you can move freely. However, If you want to come back, be sure to follow him too. I remember every month on the night of the full moon, he will go there once."

Qin Tan asked, "Then when will you come back?"

"He will return in three days." The man in black robe calculated the time, "Tomorrow will be the night of the full moon."

This time is too tight. Lou Fan looked at Qin Tan, "We have to hurry back to the village to meet Tong Fei."

Qin Tan nodded and asked the man in black robe, "Is there any other important information?"

The black-robed man shook his head.

Qin Tan stopped asking, and said, "Then please tell us how to get out."

The woods only appeared at night, they lost their way as soon as they entered, and they found the villagers' settlement by accident.

The black-robed man nodded, turned and left. Several people followed immediately, and the three of Gao Yi also stood up and followed.

Chen Man complained in a low voice behind him, "Captain, I don't think these mid-level teams are ignorant. You don't know that I wanted to save you at the time. They only asked for clues at the first time. I don't think they didn't want to save you at all. US."

Gao Yi is not a fool either, but he is not a naive person after being in Liuli for so long. When people here are thinking about finding clues, it is a kind of kindness to save a hand. People who fell into trouble were rescued by others, and if I want to talk about others, that means I think too much.

After all, no one is a virgin, and one must selflessly dedicate to save all sentient beings.

Gao Yi said indifferently: "People have already done great deeds, and you still ask others to save their lives despite the danger? Is it realistic?"
