"So, you don't know where they are staying in Minqing. Do you know their phone number? Liu Miao asked.

"Telephone...... man's eyes began to roll again, aiming in the direction of the money, "I have a memory...... Telephone......"

"If we can't find anyone, you're going to lie in this bed for the rest of your life without having to get up." Ye Qing said very calmly.

Ye Qing was not captured in the video, but the man shuddered and leaned back, "I, I don't know." I really don't know. They, after the little brute's family was taken out by him, no one knew. What his family knew before, no one knows now. ”

"What about the women's families?"

"Most of the men are working outside the home. I don't know what they said. My three daughters are all married, and I am alone, how do I know? The last time I asked their family for money, they beat me up. I don't know! The man became anxious, "You ask someone else about me." Ask me, I don't know! ”

The camera doesn't move.

The man's eyes looked to the left and to the right, with an anxious expression.

"One more thing to ask you. Do you have a legend similar to the mountain god here? Ye Qing asked.

The man looked dazed, "What is it?" Youkai in the mountains? ”

"Haven't you ever worshipped such things? There are no legends either? Ye Qing asked again.

The man was still at a loss, "I, I'm not the original person of this village, I ......"

"You're not from this village?" Liu Miao repeated.

The man swallowed.

"Tell me clearly, what the hell is going on?" Liu Miao asked sharply.

The man was at a loss, "I, I fled from outside." I didn't expect it either...... I made a mistake out there, and I ...... I was about to go into the mountain, but I broke my foot and fell off the mountain. I broke my legs. The men here found me and carried me back. So I stayed here and found a widow...... I, I don't know anything about them. They don't tell me anything. You're looking for trouble with that little brute, you're looking for someone else, I don't know! ”

"Did you see anything in the mountains when you came?" Ye Qing suddenly asked.

The man was stunned for a moment, and his face suddenly turned pale.

"What do you see on the mountain?" There was no emotion in Ye Qing's voice, he just asked a simple question.

Cold sweat left on the man's head.

"It rained that day...... I...... I tripped over a rock...... It's dark and you can't see ...... I...... Later, he broke his foot...... And then ...... And then I went back to the mountains, and I ...... I'll get it back...... Someone in the village said that I might have stepped on a trap set by someone's house there, a trap to catch rabbits and pheasants. No one admits it. I just thought...... When I looked for it, the stone ...... The stone I found, the stone was so big, it was a polished stone......"

"What does it look like?" Ye Qing asked again.

The man trembled, his eyes became hollow and dazed, and his face was a look of fear.

"It's Sanya...... It's Sanya's appearance! That stone is what Sanya looks like! I...... The woman grew up, grew up, and became more and more like! How could it be...... What the hell am I doing? The man suddenly lunged forward.

The camera rewinds.

The man threw himself into the air and fell to his knees.

He knelt on the ground, straightened up, and asked loudly, "You say the god of the mountain!" You just asked me that, and you still came to find Sanya! Isn't it! What do you know? I've hit an evil spirit, I must have hit an evil spirit! No wonder! No wonder the widow died not long after Sanya was born. And me, my leg is broken, my leg has never been better, and the fields in the house are not good! Definitely! That thing is a youkai! That woman is a monster! ”

The man is crazy.

The camera is steady, still focused on the man.

Ye Qing was still very calm and asked, "What is that stone, haven't you asked the people in the village?" ”

The man shook his head, desperately shaking his head, "They don't know, no one knows!" None of them can tell! That's a youkai for sure! It's a youkai! ”

"Boss......" Liu Miao called Ye Qing softly.

"Let's go." Ye Qing said.

There was the sound of footsteps.

"Wait! Wait! You save me! You're here to catch youkai, right? Help me! The man pleaded.

The camera has turned, and then it hangs again, facing the dirty ground.

The camera swings one after another, and it should be Liu Miao's hand holding the DV that is naturally swinging back and forth.

The man's screams are left out of the frame, getting softer and softer.

The ground has moved from indoors to outdoors.

Liu Miao stopped people and asked about the stone on the mountain.

“…… Haven't you heard of it? ”

"The lame man had asked before. I've been to the mountains and I've never seen them. ”

"I haven't seen it either."

"Who knows where it came from!"

"Maybe the lame man was blind and misunderstood."

"The lame man didn't tell the truth. He should have fallen to his death in the first place. ”

The camera has been facing the ground, shooting dirt roads, gravel, and a few pairs of cloth shoes and wooden slippers.

Fast forward, and the voices of the villagers became so strange that they couldn't hear what they were saying.

The camera continues to move and is back indoors.

The picture becomes at normal speed.

Liu Miao's voice sounded.

"Nangong, we're in Shanzitun. No one was found here. Did you check the phone number and find out? ”

Liu Miao's voice stopped for a moment.

"Okay, I see, we'll be back."

There was a sound of the phone hanging up.

The footage stops abruptly, and the video ends.

On October 23, 2006, I received a call from the client. 3。

"Hello, Mr. Yu."

"Well, I ...... I don't know what's going on, I don't know if this is ......"

"What happened to you?"

"I, I just, just right, was watching TV, and then inside the TV...... There seems to be a problem with the TV signal, and someone else's channel has come in, and that ...... I don't know if it's ......."

"What's in the TV?"

"It's a, a picture of a forest fire. Forest fires, from the top of the mountain, burned down the mountain. You can see the fire rushing down the mountain, all the way to the farmland at the foot of the mountain. There, the camera seemed to be set up in the village, and the people in the village were running around. I couldn't even understand what those people were saying. And those people ...... It doesn't seem to be a documentary, it's a movie, a costume movie. The camera keeps shaking. And then I don't understand the dubbing. I don't know where it is...... It seems to be a dialect...... The content is still intermittent. I, I probably understood, it was a mountain fire, and then the people in the village fled, fled with their things in advance, and then came back after the mountain fire burned out. They seem to be kneeling somebody. Later, a statue was also made. It looks like a statue of a woman. I don't know if people with long hair are women...... They carried the statue up the mountain. After that, he carried the coffin up the mountain. Also, there is a view of the village from the top of the mountain. Then, as if the camera had fallen down, it was lying directly on the ground. The TV is a snowflake screen. The TV screen flashed for a moment...... I'm not so sure...... That moment, that moment, I seemed to see...... I saw those eyes......"
