At this time, it was almost evening, and the voice of the seventh uncle, Cang Lao, said in an unknown meaning, "It's not a human being." Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang unconsciously felt the cool breeze behind him.

Xu Bao swallowed and told his seventh uncle justice, "Uncle, what are you not a human?"

"Well... it happened a long time ago." The old man sighed and said, looking for a rattan chair to sit down. Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also moved a bench to sit down and listened to the old man.

"How to say... it happened about fifty or sixty years ago." The old man sat on the chair and began to recall."

"So long?" Zhan Zhao was a little surprised, "Aren't we just liberated at that time?"

"Yes." The old man nodded, "The situation is still not good. At that time, I was afraid of being beaten, so everyone organized a militia."

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao both nodded. Although they were both far away from them during that period, their parents and grandparents were all people from that era, and they had heard of many things.

"I organized a militia team. At that time, the weapons were not controlled, and we all had guns. At that time, I wanted to fight against the United States and aid Korea. When the car drove to the border of the Yalu River, the war was won. After I came back, I was considered a veteran who participated in several wars. There were not many such people in the village, so I became the militia captain." Perhaps because of the memory of that era, although the seventh uncle was already old, his thoughts were still very clear when he recalled it.

"At that time, there were no food, and there were still some wild animals on the mountain. We all went to hunt, but there were no big things in the south. They were all pheasants and hares. Occasionally, they could meet one or two jackals, and they were frightened to see people... They were always peaceful. I remember...this happened in early spring of the year."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang didn't say anything, and waited quietly for the old man to talk.

"That spring, it was very cold. In the early spring, many animals in the mountains were frozen to death. People also went up the mountain to hunt a lot of rabbits, probably because they had no food or something. Suddenly, a large number of worms and wild dogs came down from somewhere." Seeing Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang opened their eyes wide, the old man smiled helplessly and said, "You may not be able to imagine that at that time, that was like this, and it was so happy."

"Happy?" Bai Yutang seemed a little puzzled.

"Haha." The old man was amused, looked at the pistol in Bai Yutang's gun bag, and said, "My man, there is a guy in his hand, just want to use it... You are using pistols now, I used semi-automatic submachine guns at that time. Oh, I used a shotgun all day long to hit rabbits, is that something women do? Think about it, what does this feel like? One shot is a hundred small gun holes on the rabbit's body, and a lead bullet bite when eating meat."

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. I remembered that Bai Yunwen and the others also liked hunting when they were young. They followed them when they were young, and the rabbits they ate were also equipped with scattered bullets inside, so they could even collapse if they were not careful.

"We have a group of militiamen, but we have caught a chance, and started to sweep the wolf with charges." The old man sighed and said, "We had a great time at that time. After killing all the wolves, we went into the mountain to search... Unexpectedly, we found two people when we searched."

"People?" Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were both surprised and asked, "You mean, people living in the mountains?"

"Ah." The old man nodded and said, "These two people don't know how they got up there. They were all dressed almost in bark. Both of them were men. At first we thought they were the Japanese who stayed and didn't escape. However, they didn't look like their age. When we asked the last question, we realized that they were both parents who died at a very young age. I don't know how they went up the mountain, two brothers."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang nodded, but they still felt something strange. Zhan Zhao asked his seventh uncle, "How long have they lived in the mountain? Can there be so many jackals on the mountain live?"

"Oh..." the old man shook his head and said, "If we had thought of this at that time and asked more questions, there would be no future happening."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned and realized that something might have happened next.

"The people at that time were all so good that they were a little stupid." The old man sighed, "When they saw these two young men were displaced and suffered so much, many of them gave them food and drink. At that time, many old mothers in the village had no sons at home, so they asked them to live in and raise them like sons."

"What then?" Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were a little puzzled. Although these two people had unknown origins, they would not have harmed such kind villagers, right?

"Ha..." the old man laughed dryly and said, "Those two are not human at all!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other and felt that it sounded so terrible.

Xu Bao also asked, "Uncle, what is it that I am not a human? Monster?"

"Do you know, they two cannibalists!" said the old man silently, "For a while, the village was always embarrassing... and most of the missing children and old people... We thought there were wolves on the mountain, but later we felt something was wrong. The old man who took in the two brothers had not come out for many days!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other and asked, "Why did you let the two eat them too?"

The old man sighed and said, "We were suspicious at the time. A few nights later, we were guarding the road with guns and stumbled on the road, right next to the haystack."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked back at the pile of hay and heard the old man continue, "Those two brothers really come out. They wandered on the road in the middle of the night. One of our bolder brothers went out as bait, so they bit them, and then we rushed out and beat them to death."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang asked at the same time, "Did you find out later? Did they kill people?"

"Yeah." The old man nodded and said, "When we arrived at their house, there were all messy things, cross-shaped shelves carved from wood, and some strange things. Then there were several corpses."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other and asked, "Where are those things?"

The old man shook his head and said, "It's burned."

"Burn?" Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang felt a pity at the same time. If they had been preserved until now, they might have studied the origins of the two people. It seems that they are not as simple as ordinary madmen. After all, the madmen's behavior will not be so organized. The cross mentioned by the old man has some similarities with the vampire killer, so it is very likely to be an important clue.

"Yes, uncle." Xu Bao also said, "Why didn't you keep everything there at that time? Or call the police to deal with it."

"Call the police?" the old man smiled and said, "I am a militia, why should I call the police?"

Everyone looked at each other, thinking that this was the same.

"At that time, we will destroy the four old things and defeat all monsters and monsters. How dare we talk about such things that are not ghosts and gods or gods!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang nodded, thinking that the old man’s words made sense, so he asked, “Later you buried these two people?”

"Yes." The old man nodded and said, "I buried it in the haystack on the spot. After that, the village returned to peace and nothing happened."

"Except Zhang Miaomiao?" Zhan Zhao asked.

When the old man heard Zhang Miaomiao, his brows frowned deeply and said, "That girl...ah, I've told A Tian so many times. That woman's bad things are, he just doesn't listen to me and loses his life in vain."

"Why is Zhang Miaomiao bad?" Bai Yutang asked curiously.

The old man was silent for a moment and said, "I see, that woman is wearing that cross-shaped necklace!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned, opened their eyes wide and asked, "Is it the same thing left by the two brothers you burned?"

"Yes." The old man nodded, Zhan Zhao took out the notebook and pen he carried with him and asked the old man, "Uncle Seventh, can you roughly draw it for us?"

"Draw?" the old man took the pen tremblingly and said, "I can't draw..."

"Just draw whatever you want, as long as it has a shape." Zhan Zhao said.

"Oh." The old man narrowed his eyes, gently drew a pen on his notebook, and handed it to Zhan Zhao, saying, "It's probably like this, a cross, and then a snake was wrapped around it."

"Huh?" Xu Bao looked at him in surprise and said, "Why do you think it looks familiar?"

"Have you seen it?" Zhan Zhao looked up at Xu Bao.

Xu Bao touched his head, as if he couldn't remember it. Uncle Seven shook his head and said, "Impossible... We only saw it at that time. In order not to let everyone know, they all burned it. All the militias with me died, and I was the only one left."

"Uh...then maybe I'm wrong." Xu Bao touched his head.

Zhan Zhao took the notebook and looked at it, frowned, and asked the old man, "Do you think that Zhang Miaomiao has the same thing, which may be related to those two brothers?"

The old man sighed, "We were really scared when we recalled what happened back then. We were even more scared when we knew that Zhang Miaomiao was bitten. No matter what, we would have to drive her away. Otherwise, if monsters come out again now, we would have no guns to deal with them!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang nodded. The seventh uncle only remembered the incident sporadically, and it was not very important. Zhan Zhao stared at the two graves for a long time and said, "Xiaobai, let's dig out the body?"

Bai Yutang saw Zhan Zhao, "You mean, take it back and let Gongsun perform the autopsy?"

"Yes." Zhan Zhao nodded, "Although there are only bones left, there are very likely clues."

"I'll call someone to dig." Bai Yutang called to notify the people from the forensic department to bring the field and move the two graves back. He smiled and said, "Gongsun must be crazy."

Zhan Zhao also laughed. At this time, he heard someone running from afar and shouted, "Head, Dr. Zhan!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang turned around and saw Ma Han and Luo Tian running back. Luo Tian was still holding a box wrapped in a newspaper, not knowing what it was.

"How is it?" Zhan Zhao glanced at the paper box curiously.

Luo Tian saw an old man behind the two of them, and said, "We've finished asking, captain, Jiang Ping just said that there is something amazing in the chip sent back by Zhao Jue, so let's go back quickly.

"Really?" Zhan Zhao was shocked.

Bai Yutang naturally knew that there was nothing in this world, and it attracted Zhan Zhao's interest more than the word Zhao Jue, so he said, "Let's talk about it when you go back." After that, he and everyone, let Xu Zhong and Xu Bao go into the car.

When they got to the car, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang realized that Luo Tian and Ma Han had dug up Xu Tian's tomb and took out the urn.

When the two of them took out the necklace, they were both stunned. They thought of the pattern drawn by the old man, and they also understood why Xu Bao said that he looked familiar. He must have glanced at Xu Tian's relics, but after a long time, he couldn't remember it.

"Have Jiang Ping found out?" Zhan Zhao asked, "The source of this pattern?"

"Yes." Ma Han nodded and handed Zhan Zhao the message sent by Jiang Ping.

"How is it?" Bai Yutang saw Zhan Zhao's face full of confusion, so he went up to ask.

"This pattern is the clan emblem of a mysterious European family," Zhan Zhao said. "This family declined a hundred years ago and was then destroyed by the church. Later, their story was written into a novel... This clan emblem is the cover of the novel at that time."

"What's the name of the novel?" Bai Yutang asked curiously.
