Chapter 214 The food is gone

Chen Lisong followed Chen Xinsheng to the Huang family compound.

Brothers Zheng Laishun and Zheng Laifu greeted Chen Lisong as soon as they saw him: "Hello, Coach Chen!"

"Stop calling me Coach Chen! You two can just call me Chen Lisong from now on."

Zheng Laishun said: "Then let's call you Brother Lisong."

Zheng Laifu asked: "Do you think there is really so much food hidden under here? More than a thousand dan, enough to feed us in Fengshan for several years, right?"

"It's true, I've seen it with my own eyes and touched it with my own hands.

Wang Kefu dug open the bag with a dagger, and Chen Lisong saw with his own eyes the grains of grain that came out.

"But we went down and couldn't find him."

Hold the oil lamp and walk down the tunnel.

Also coming down with us were brothers Zheng Laishun and Zheng Laifu.

When we got down there, the basement was completely empty.

Chen Lisong thought this was impossible, so he took an oil lamp and illuminated the basement again, but still found nothing.

Except for traces of grain bags stacked on the ground, there was not a single bag of grain in sight.

Chen Lisong asked: "How long have you been here?"

"It took about two hours. We found the place where Huang Xiaoming said. He drew the location of the water tank for me and asked us to move the water tank and get down. But when we arrived, there was nothing here.

"

"Oh, it wasn't Liu Guolong who brought you in?" Chen Lisong knew that Liu Guolong wanted to keep vigil, so he only asked him to pick up Fengshan's people at the gate of Huang's courtyard at night and bring them in to show them where the water tank was.

Moving food from the tunnel.

Chen Xinsheng said: "I don't know who Liu Guolong is."

Zheng Laifu said: "I know him. He is not a good person. He deceived Lin Sancai once."

Chen Lisong said: "He has changed his mind a long time ago. Huang Daming and Zhao Dafu cheated Liu Guolong, so Liu Guolong swore to me that he would never do bad things again. Also, his wife was just killed by three Japs.

I am helping him seek revenge against these three devils."

The basement was empty, and a cool breeze blew in from the vent, making the flame of the oil lamp sway.

When Zheng Laifu saw the oil lamp, he suddenly became frightened: "Can we go up and talk about whether there are ghosts underground?"

Chen Xinsheng said: "There are no ghosts in this world, don't talk nonsense!"

"Why did more than a thousand bags of grain disappear out of thin air? What could it be if it wasn't a ghost?"

Zheng Laishun scolded: "Laifu, you talk too much, shut up!"

Chen Lisong saw that the basement was so big and no bag of grain would come out even if he searched around, so he said, "Let's go up there first."

Zheng Laishun said: "That's right, let's talk about it after we go up."

Walking up from the tunnel and out of the cave entrance, Chen Lisong asked brother Zheng Laishun to help move the water tank back to its original place.

After leaving the kitchen, Chen Lisong saw that people from Fengshan were standing all over the yard. Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and then looked at Chen Lisong, which made him extremely embarrassed.

He asked Chen Xinsheng: "Didn't Mr. Huang come with you?"

Chen Xinsheng responded: "After all, this yard is his brother Huang Daming's home. He said that he brought people in to move away the food his brother had collected, but he always felt it was inappropriate, so he only drew me a picture of how to get in. He didn't

Come."

"That's true. But it shouldn't be. It's just a bit strange. Why hasn't Liu Guolong seen anyone?"

Chen Xinsheng was worried that something might happen to Liu Guolong: "Although I don't know the Liu Guolong you're talking about, now that the food is gone and we haven't met him, will something happen to him?"

Chen Lisong looked around the yard again with the oil lamp and said, "It shouldn't happen. If something happened to him, there wouldn't be any traces in the yard."

Zheng Laifu said: "The food disappeared inexplicably. Could it be that Huang Daming's ghost captured him? Besides, this person knows what people know but doesn't know what they know. He deceived Lin Sancai once. Could it be that he led someone to take him away?"

Has the food been moved away?"

Chen Lisong said: "It's impossible. His wife was just killed by the Japs, and now he just wants to kill the Japs for revenge. This man is originally timid, and I know his character very well."

Zheng Laishun kicked Zheng Laifu on the butt and cursed: "What nonsense are you talking about? Don't you dare talk nonsense again,"

Chen Lisong said: "Laishun, Laifu, believe me, Liu Guolong will never be the kind of person you think. Let's find him first."

He believed that Liu Guolong would not take the grain away, and there were thousands of bags of grain stored in the underground granary. Even if Liu Guolong had the intention to swallow the grain, he would not be able to move it without leaving traces!

Chen Xinsheng said: "Don't look for it in the middle of the night. Besides, this food doesn't belong to Fengshan, so it's not that important whether we have it or not."

"No, this is not just a matter of food. Let's go to his house first to see if he is there. Also, there was a girl who saw the food with us yesterday, and she is also at his house now."

"Who is this girl?"

"Oh, a female student from the city."

"There are many people in Fengshan. If they all go to Chenzhuang, there will be too much noise. Now there is no food to move. I will let them go back to Fengshan first."

"Um."

Zheng Laishun said: "Let's go together with you."

Chen Lisong knew that Zheng Laifu seemed to suspect Liu Guolong of moving the grain just now, so he said: "That's fine, you two also know Liu Guolong, let's go together."

Chen Xinsheng asked the people from Fengshan to go back to Fengshan first, taking only Zheng Laishun and Zheng Laifu to follow Chen Lisong to Liu Guolong's house.

When Chen Lisong saw Liu Guolong, Liu Guolong fell asleep in front of his wife's body. Chen Lisong gently patted Liu Guolong awake.

Liu Guolong rubbed his eyes and said: "Have you just come back? I asked Fengshan's people to move the food away. Today I found Fengshan's brothers working to bring in money. I counted, one thousand one hundred and twenty-three

It only took one hour to move the bags, it was incredible!”

After hearing this, Chen Lisong was stunned and turned to look at Chen Xinsheng.

Chen Xinsheng was speechless.

Zheng Laifu became angry at this moment: "Do you mean we moved the food?"

Liu Guolong looked at Zheng Laifu blankly and asked: "You... aren't you from Fengshan?"

Chen Lisong asked: "When did you see the people from Fengshan coming to move food?"

"It's just dark, about seven o'clock."

Zheng Laifu stepped forward and grabbed Liu Guolong's collar and asked, "Have you seen me at seven o'clock?"

Liu Guolong looked at Zheng Laifu seriously, shook his head and said, "No."

Zheng Laifu pointed at Chen Xinsheng and Zheng Laishun and asked, "Have you just seen our political commissar Chen? Have you seen my brother?"

Liu Guolong still shook his head and said, "No."

Chen Lisong knew very well that the person Liu Guolong saw was not from Fengshan, so he asked: "It's past seven o'clock, how many people are here?"

"About thirty people, I didn't count carefully. What's wrong?" Liu Guolong looked confused.
