Counting two days, if Jin Kening is not in the dormitory, but really in Beituo Mountain, there has been no news from her, which is definitely not a good sign.

Beituo Mountain is not close to the old city village, and it is located in deep mountains and old forests. Without a guide, it is easy to get lost.

Li Yuanlang decided to find Jin Kening no matter what.

Han Wei found Old Man Jiang. He was familiar with this mountain. With him leading the way, the chance of success would be greater.

Han Wei volunteered and brought two more criminal police members.

Zhang Quanlong originally wanted to go together, but there were too many aftermaths in Jiucheng Village, and the county committee had to hold a meeting to study, so he couldn't spare the time, so he had to give up.

Li Yuanlang didn't want to stop for a moment. One more minute might give Jin Kening a chance to survive.

After eating something, everything is ready.

At around ten o'clock that night, Li Yuanlang, Old Man Jiang, Han Wei and other five people entered the mountain from the mountainside near Jiucheng Village and began to search for Jin Kening.

Along the way, Li Yuanlang chatted with Old Man Jiang about the questions in his mind.

He believes that there is something strange about this sudden flash flood.

June is not the rainy season. Even if the rain is so heavy, given the terrain of the old city and village surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the mountains are full of trees, how can there be flash floods?

Old Man Jiang said: "If we destroy natural resources artificially, there will still be flash floods."

"Man-made sabotage?"

"Do you remember the Molin Garden we visited?"

Li Yuanlang nodded, "Of course I am anxious. You always say that this flash flood is related to Molin Garden?"

"I'm not sure, but I know that the second phase of the Molin Garden project has started. Not far from the old city village, the felling of trees and the excavation of the mountain have begun."

"So, Mo Linyuan has committed another illegal act." Li Yuanlang thought to himself, if all this is true, it will be a big disaster if Mo Linyuan is not eliminated.

“Can we see the construction site at Molin Garden?”

Old Man Jiang nodded slowly, "You can see it on the way to Beituo Mountain. I will take you there."

After walking for about an hour and climbing over a mountain, Li Yuanlang vaguely heard the roar of a machine.

The further you go, the louder the sound gets.

Old Man Jiang reminded: "It's just ahead."

This is an uphill climb, slightly steep, and there is no road.

Thanks to Old Man Jiang's familiarity, as the sound of the machine became louder and louder, Li Yuanlang and others finally climbed to the top of the mountain and looked down.

I saw a low-lying area at the bottom of the mountain, and a dozen excavators, illuminated by lights as bright as day, were working together, digging out the earth and rocks on the mountain.

More than a dozen large dump trucks were constantly transporting earth and rocks.

Sure enough, there are indeed people digging mountains here.

Old Man Jiang pointed down and said: "They stop working during the day and work exclusively at night."

There must be a ghost.

Needless to say, it is difficult to attract attention at night, and if the procedures are complete, there is no need to do this.

Li Yuanlang, Han Wei and others took out their mobile phones and took pictures of the construction site.

Naturally, all this was done in secret to avoid being discovered.

Since they still had to find Jin Kening, they did not stay here too long and continued on their way.

The terrain of Beituo Mountain is dangerous, and Beituo Peak is even more steep, with the top not visible at a glance.

Old Man Jiang analyzed that most people would not be able to climb Beituo Peak without the help of professional equipment, and Jin Kening might not be there.

Li Yuanlang asked eagerly: "According to your guess, where will she be?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a sudden howl of wolves from all around.

Everyone couldn't help but become nervous.

Han Wei took out his pistol and followed the sound and looked around.

Old Man Jiang waved his hand, "The howling of wolves is to find companions or attract mates. As long as we light a fire, the wolves will not dare to approach."

As he spoke, Old Man Jiang took the lead in taking out a few wooden sticks wrapped with rags from the cloth bag he was carrying, opened a bottle of gasoline in a mineral water bottle, and poured it on the rags.

After that, light it with a lighter.

One by one, each person holds a torch.

With a torch, you can both illuminate and scare the wolves.

Everyone followed the instructions one after another, led by Old Man Jiang, and walked deeper along the grass at the bottom of the slope.

As they walked, Old Man Jiang shouted at the top of his voice: "Is there anyone there?"

Li Yuanlang also imitated him and called Jin Kening's name.

After walking for a while, Li Yuanlang asked Old Man Jiang: "Is there a cave near here?"

"As far as I know, no."

Li Yuanlang couldn't help but worry, where would Jin Kening be without the cave.

In two days, if she was still alive, she would have been lost.

Then the cave is the best hiding place, otherwise...

Old Man Jiang suddenly stopped, patted his head and said, "No, there is one, but it's on the other side of the mountain."

Li Yuanlang told him that he and Jin Kening once got lost in the mountains and ended up hiding in a cave all night.

"If she had this experience, she might really hide in the cave." Old Man Jiang also muttered, "Normally, the cave is inaccessible, what is a woman doing there?"

"Old man, let's go over there and have a look." At this time, Li Yuanlang could only think of trying his luck.

With such a large scope, it is very difficult to find people.

And that's without even a single clue.

At this time, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and the sky was not that dark anymore.

The crowd didn't stop for a moment. Under the leadership of Old Man Jiang, they took a shortcut up the mountain from a place that was not too steep.

Li Yuanlang didn't feel tired from the anxiety of searching for someone.

I prayed countless times in my heart, silently remembering that she was still alive.

In this way, more than an hour passed, and when we climbed over the mountain and descended to the bottom slope, it was already bright.

Old Man Jiang was not too familiar with this place. As he said, very few people came here. He had only been here once, many years ago. Therefore, when looking for the cave, Old Man Jiang thought for a long time and was always sure.

No specific location.

"Old man, shall we search separately?"

"Well, that's all."

So, the five people were divided into two groups.

Old Man Jiang took the two policemen together, and Li Yuanlang and Han Wei went together.

It was agreed that whoever found the person would shout into the mountains, "Found him."

Because there is no mobile phone signal here, we can only rely on "roar" to convey information.

Two groups of people walked away from each other in opposite directions.

It was daybreak, and Li Yuanlang's nervousness was also relaxing.

"Secretary Li, are you okay? If not, we will take a rest."

"It's okay." Li Yuanlang gritted his teeth and still persisted.

Taking a few steps forward, Li Yuanlang began to call Jin Kening's name.

Han Wei showed his style and shouted with him.

While walking around, Li Yuanlang suddenly stopped and raised his hand to stop Han Wei, signaling him to stop shouting.

"Han Wei, did you hear someone talking?" Li Yuanlang looked around.

"No, I didn't hear it." Han Wei listened carefully and shook his head vigorously.

"Maybe it's my imagination." Li Yuanlang took two steps and stopped again, "No, someone really spoke."

So, at Li Yuanlang's suggestion, Han Wei dragged the weeds and climbed up the hillside little by little.

Unexpectedly, he missed the step and rolled down the hillside.

Fortunately, there are only loose soil and pebbles in this ditch, not big rocks.

But this fall also made Han Wei sore all over.

Li Yuanlang asked quickly. Han Wei stood up with support, gritted his teeth and said in pain: "It's okay, I'll try again."

"I'll do it."
