Undoubtedly, with Tang Meng's wisdom, she has already guessed Liu Guangshui's true intention of denying his identity as a reporter, but there is a saying that goes well, the more you describe, the darker you get. You can never explain it clearly to someone who insists that you are a thief.
, in this case, is it necessary to argue with him? The business is to quickly find the village chief's house. Not only that, through a series of encounters during the period, she also vaguely felt that the village chief Wang's house...may be the source of this mission.
A certain key!
We need to find the village chief as soon as possible, and then get more clues through the village chief!
"Well, Xiaotang, you are right. This person is really unreasonable. Let's go." Liu Guangshui is a smart man. Although he does not know Tang Meng's true identity, in the false memory imposed on him by the curse,
Whether it is Tang Meng or other executors, everyone is his subordinate. Among them, Tang Meng gave him the impression of being a calm and intelligent person.
He was not the only one who had this impression of Ming Ming's woman. Song Zhi, Zhou Xiaolan and Liu Lang next to him also had the same impression. As expected, after listening to this beautiful subordinate's advice, he no longer wanted to get entangled with the middle-aged man.
Liu Guangshui who went down immediately agreed, and then under the leadership of Liu Guangshui, everyone ignored the middle-aged man and walked straight forward.
"Hey, stop!" Sure enough, seeing the crowd ignoring him and continuing to move forward, the already annoyed middle-aged man became angrier and wanted to follow and stop him, but as soon as he turned around, a bald man was killed on the shoulder.
Hold!
"Woo! Let go, let go quickly...it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"
Staring at the grinning middle-aged man in front of him, Peng Hu shook his face and grinned: "Brother, I advise you to mind your own business, otherwise the consequences will be serious, very serious!"
Finally, under the threat of Peng Hu's absolutely powerful force, the middle-aged man was forced to compromise and completely gave up his plan to stop them. At this moment, seeing the crowd walking further and further away, the middle-aged man first glared at the back of the crowd with vicious eyes.
, and finally turned around and left unwillingly.
5 minutes later, the screen shifted to the north of Hongye Village.
Looking at the large house in front of him, which seemed to be the most magnificent in the village, Liu Guangshui hesitated a little in front of the door. If he went according to the news he first learned from the woman, this house should be that of Village Chief Wang.
Home.
Not to mention, although the house of Village Chief Wang’s house is in no way comparable to the high-rise buildings in the city, at least it can be described as grand in the village. The typical large house style is very different from other private houses.
"Well, the house looks quite big. It is most likely the village chief's home. Xiao Liu, go knock on the door."
Boom, boom, boom!
"Hey! Is there anyone? Is there anyone at home?" Seeing the leader speak, Liu Lang, a subordinate, walked to the door as instructed, and then knocked on the door without any scruples, shouting while knocking on the door, accompanied by
The knocking and shouting continued, and soon the sound of footsteps was heard in the courtyard. After a while, the door was opened by a young girl from the inside.
Similar to the reaction of other villagers, after seeing a group of strange men and women in fashionable clothes standing outside the door, the girl was startled for a moment, then looked confused and asked carefully: "You, who are you?"
The rest of the matter was simple. Since he had already made up his mind, Chen Guangshui went over to negotiate with a smile on his face again and told the young girl everything he wanted to do.
"...Haha, that's what happened. In order to experience the farm atmosphere, we tourists from the city wanted to stay in your village for a few days. But we didn't have a hotel in your village, so we came to Village Chief Wang to find a way."
"So that's it. This matter really depends on my grandpa to solve it. Well, then you guys come in and I'll call my grandpa."
The young girl was quite reasonable. After hearing everyone's intentions, the girl let everyone into the yard and hurried into the main room.
"Grandpa! A group of city people are coming outside!"
Two minutes later, in the central hall of this courtyard, everyone, including the executioner, finally saw the mayor of Qiuye Village.
An ordinary old man with a wrinkled face who looks to be in his early 60s.
"Gentlemen from the city, this old man is Wang Zeqing, the head of this village."
……………
Hooray, hooray.
The autumn breeze swept through the village lightly. The breeze blew and picked up large pieces of fallen leaves on the ground. For a moment, the red leaves were all over the sky and fluttering in the sky, which completely fit the village's artistic name, Autumn Leaf Village.
"Oh, by the way, this is my granddaughter Xiaojuan."
In the main room, the old man who looked ordinary in front of him introduced himself. Liu Guangshui, who was asking for help, did not dare to neglect. After Village Chief Wang introduced himself and his granddaughter, Liu Guangshui also hurriedly introduced everyone in his party, and then
He quickly told Village Chief Wang his intention again.
After narrating a story, with Liu Guangshui as the nominal leader in charge of the conversation, the executors headed by Zhao Ping were happy to have their time at ease. They all observed silently, sometimes observing the village chief, sometimes looking at Xiaojuan, and sometimes scanning the main room environment.
I don't know what I'm thinking about.
"A tourist in the city? It's not easy. We haven't seen any strangers in Qiuye Village for a long time. I never thought that people from the city would actually come here today. Welcome."
After learning about the intention of Liu Guangshui and his party, I thought that the old man would be entangled and embarrassed, but he didn't expect that the other party didn't care at all. Not only did the old man not show any doubt or rejection, but he also smiled and expressed welcome, and his attitude was very kind, especially when he got the chance.
When they learned that these people hoped that they could help find a place to live, Village Chief Wang's answer surprised everyone...
"Haha, the place we live in is simple. The old man's house is quite spacious. There are only two people at home, Xiaojuan and me. If you don't mind, you can stay with me these days."
Through conversations, everyone knew the whole story. Even though Village Chief Wang’s house was the largest in the village, currently only he and his granddaughter Xiaojuan lived there. Xiaojuan’s parents both worked in the town, and the huge courtyard house was empty.
It's not a lot, but if you put it that way, it's indeed a suitable place to stay.
"Ah! Really...really? Thank you so much, Village Chief Wang! Don't worry, we will pay for the accommodation and food expenses."
As the saying goes, the icing on the cake is far less grateful than the help in times of need. As soon as Village Chief Wang said this, the reporters sitting opposite were overjoyed. Liu Guangshui, who was so sophisticated, even smiled and thanked the old man. He wanted to bow to the old man and thank him. There was no trace of gratitude in the whole process.
I don't mean to shirk the politeness. After all, they are in urgent need of a place to stay. It would be too fake to be falsely polite at this time.
Regarding Liu Liu Guangshui's suggestion to pay, Village Chief Wang still smiled and waved his hands, not taking it seriously. Then he looked at the sky outside the window with a sudden look on his face, and finally said to everyone: "Oh, look at me, I am older."
I even forgot about this, haha, you haven’t eaten yet, right?”
Hearing this, Liu Guangshui and others smiled awkwardly. It was not their fault for reacting this way, but they were really hungry. From morning to now, everyone has been busy on the road. During this period, they traveled through mountains and rivers and finally arrived at the village. The time was short.
It was approaching afternoon, and I was already hungry. Seeing Village Chief Wang being so considerate
How could everyone refuse? Just like now, seeing these city people laughing awkwardly, Village Chief Wang nodded with understanding, so he ordered his granddaughter standing behind him: "Xiaojuan, go to the kitchen to cook first.
, and then tidied up the few empty rooms in the courtyard to provide accommodation for guests."
The accommodation arranged by Village Chief Wang for everyone is quite good. Although there are many people in the tour group, there are also many vacant rooms. As a courtyard, except for the east room in the middle, which is definitely occupied by Village Chief Wang and his grandson, the rooms on the left and right are
The house naturally became the accommodation room for many reporters, and there were four rooms on each side, because the rooms were quite sufficient.
, it is not crowded to live in. On average, one room can accommodate two people. Liu Guangshui arranged it this way at first. However, the strange thing is that the room is obviously sufficient for two people, but Zhao Ping unexpectedly proposed that three people share a room.
Suggestion, there is no doubt that Zhao Ping’s request must be based on security considerations, and all the executors are well aware of this, but Liu Guang
Shui and the others were completely baffled and could not understand what the other party meant. Although the description was so, with the collective support of all the new staff, Liu Guangshui had no choice but to nod and agree. Of course, even if he agreed, he was actually only agreeing to the new staff.
There are three people in a room, but old employees like Song Zhi obviously have no intention of squeezing in, because Zhao Ping
After all the new employees crowded into the west side of the house, the remaining north side of the house was naturally occupied by the old employees. It was actually a room for one person, but the accommodation environment was relatively simple. In addition to beds, there were tables and chairs in the room.
The so-called household appliances, but considering that this is just a remote village without water or electricity, everyone was quickly relieved.
Since the house on the north side is occupied by Liu Guangshui and other plot characters, the west house on the opposite side undoubtedly needs to be arranged by the executor. It is said that it is arranged by himself, but in fact it is not the case at all. It is different from the democracy that He Fei will discuss with everyone every time.
Regarding policy, Zhao Ping actually started a discussion. Yes, the man with glasses didn’t discuss it with everyone.
Instead, he directly issued the order. Finally, under Zhao Ping's arrangement, Peng Hu, Li Tianheng and He Fei, who was still sleeping, shared a room. He himself shared a room with Chen Xiaoyao, Chen Shuihong, Cheng Ying, Kong Ling and
Three women, Tang Meng, occupied one room. As for Han Xuedian, Yang Lei and Ma Wenhai, the three newcomers lived in the last room.
To be honest, Zhao Ping's accommodation arrangement is extremely unreasonable. Except for Cheng Ying and other three women who must live in the same room, the rest of the arrangements are biased. Two of the rooms are full of seniors, but all the newcomers are allowed to stay together.
Together? And the newcomers have always had little experience. Without the company of senior people, if danger occurs while sleeping, the newcomers have no idea how to deal with it. The result is certain. Seeing Zhao Ping's arrangement, Tang Meng couldn't help but frown.
Wrinkled, he was about to ask
She questioned, but Cheng Ying quickly held her down with quick eyes and hands, and immediately shook her head slightly towards the female doctor. In fact, not only Tang Meng felt extremely unreasonable, but after learning about the arrangement of the members, Peng Hu also widened his eyes with a look of surprise.
, I wanted to ask the man with glasses
What kind of plane were they doing? Unexpectedly, Chen Shuihong tugged at the corner of his clothes. Looking back, he saw Chen Shuihong winking at him. The hint was very obvious. In the end, under Chen Shuihong's desperate hints, Peng Hu still didn't say anything.
.
Time, 19:27 at night.
At this moment, in a room with flickering candlelight in the north room, everyone, including the executor, who had just had dinner, was gathering together in Liu Guangshui's room, seemingly discussing something.
With the help of the candlelight on the table, he saw that there was no one else present and that all his subordinates had arrived. Perhaps he thought that the time had come. As the leader, Liu Guangshui revealed his plan to the public. He first glanced at everyone present, and then the corners of his mouth raised.
He was the first to speak: "During the day, everyone must have noticed something was wrong from the middle-aged man's mouth, right?"
As the saying goes, one family does not belong to the same family. If Liu Guangshui is a real veteran reporter with a keen sense of smell, then why don’t other people who have also been reporters for a long time realize this? Sure enough, as soon as Liu Guangshui finished speaking, everyone at the scene
remember
The reporter Song Zhi and others instantly understood the leader's intention. This time Zhou Xiaolan reacted the fastest. Before Song Zhi next to him could speak, the female reporter had already answered in a tentative tone: "Mr. Liu, what do you mean..."
Could it be that you want to dig up news?"
"good!"
Seeing Zhou Xiaolan's answer, Liu Guangshui first smiled proudly, and then lowered his voice and said to everyone: "Everyone knows that in our line of work one must have a keen sense of smell. This sense of smell refers to being good at discovering and digging for news. If
If you can't even do this, then you are not a qualified reporter. During the day,
We have all seen the strange reactions of the villagers when they saw us taking out our cameras. The middle-aged man who came later behaved abnormally. Hehe, based on my decades of experience as a reporter, I think... there must be something hidden in this village.
It’s big news, and in all likelihood, it’s something you don’t want outsiders to know!”
"Is it possible that Mr. Liu is referring to 'that thing' that the middle-aged man said?" This time Liu Lang wanted to speak, but Song Zhi, who had been prepared for a long time, spoke first.
Seeing that all his subordinates had come to their senses, Liu Guangshui nodded with satisfaction. While nodding, he glanced out the window. After confirming that there was no one in the courtyard, Liu Guangshui continued without stopping: "Well, think about it, you can make an entire village with hundreds of villagers
Everything you don’t want to reveal
How could it be a trivial matter? As long as we can investigate this matter and report it, if the level of excitement is better... then it will be difficult for our newspaper to become famous. Once the prospects of the newspaper are good, we people will naturally
There will also be a bright future!”
In fact, at this point, Liu Guangshui's true intention has become clear. This was the reason why he concealed his identity as a reporter from the village chief and even all the villagers. Now that he said this, not only Liu Guangshui himself was excited, but also those around him.
Liu Lang, Song Zhi and Zhou Xiaolan were also moved, and they obviously agreed with the leader's remarks.
Yes, as the saying goes, Taoists go to higher places and water flows to lower places. Although their original intention of coming to the village is to travel, if they find out a breaking news during the trip, this will be very helpful to their career prospects.
Yes, thinking of this, there was no need for Liu Guangshui to continue to say anything. Several people had already made their own plans in their hearts and already knew what to do next.
As for Zhao Ping and others who were also at the scene...
Taking advantage of the status that new reporters must learn, the executor has been listening silently from the beginning to now. I thought the four plot characters would talk about something trivial, but unexpectedly the content they talked about actually involved events in the village.
, coincides with the issues that the executors are currently concerned about, and Liu Guangshui's investigation plan is also in line with everyone's intentions. Yes, in order to solve the supernatural incident as soon as possible, in fact, the executors headed by Zhao Ping also very much hope to be in the village.
We launched an investigation to see if we could find any valuable clues that would help solve the mystery. Unexpectedly, Liu Guangshui also planned to investigate. Although the purpose of these people investigating the incident was just to make money and become famous, their goals were exactly the same as those of the executors! Seeing this, I felt in my heart
Surprised, everyone looked at Zhao Ping, while Zhao Ping nodded slightly without comment, indicating not to stop them, and made it clear that Liu Guangshui and others would be asked to investigate. This would also make it easier for the executors to act later.
Xu suddenly discovered something during the conversation. Seeing that Song Zhi and other three old employees agreed, Liu Guangshui turned his eyes to the opposite side, and then asked Zhao Ping and others who were watching the whole process: "By the way, Zhao Ping, why don't any of you?"
What about talking? Come on, tell me what you think?"
Seeing that Liu Guangshui was interested in asking others for their opinions, Zhao Ping smiled and directly replied in a calm tone: "Mr. Liu, we are all newcomers who have just joined the newspaper. We are still in the learning stage. You can make arrangements if anything happens."
"Yes, yes, Mr. Liu, you don't need to ask us about this. You can just discuss it with Brother Song and the others. Li Tianheng, don't you think so?"
"Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Liu, we will do whatever you say without any hesitation."
Not to mention, after listening to Zhao Ping's answer and seeing Chen Shuihong dragging Li Tianheng along to echo him, Liu Guangshui, who was just meaning it, was immediately extremely satisfied. He really didn't expect that these new subordinates would be so obedient. Not only did they not refuse at all,
He didn't mean to say that, but everyone acted as if they were right, and their words were full of respect. Liu Guangshui felt very comfortable listening to this.
(It seems it’s time to straighten this group of people out…)
Faced with the respectful attitude of Zhao Ping and others, and being satisfied, Editor Liu made up his mind and decided to regularize these trainee reporters when he returned. After all, no leader would reject an honest and obedient subordinate.
Returning to the topic, seeing that Zhao Ping and others had no objections, they nodded, and Liu Guangshui said: "Since everyone agrees, from tomorrow onwards, we will start investigating and digging into 'that matter'. Anyway, everyone is not the first one."
After doing this for a day, you must have an idea of how to investigate. Remember, it is best not to expose your identity, lest you be driven out of the village by the angry villagers, which will be difficult to handle. "
At present, Liu Guangshui is proudly explaining the precautions to all his subordinates. He has no interest in the execution of this. Are you kidding me, do you still need to give special instructions on this matter? Except for the three newcomers Han Xuedian who just joined, who else is not experienced?
A veteran? He already knows how to investigate. Because of this, when the topic turns to precautions, everyone except Zhao Pingping shows no expression.
Without any emotion at all, the others became bored and shook their faces. Peng Hu yawned and started to stare at Li Tianheng and the equally bored Chen Shuihong, while Kong Ling, who was even more bored, simply hugged Tang.
Meng closed her eyes and fell asleep, as if she was not interested in anything. However, Cheng Ying and Chen Xiaoyao remained vigilant and were still concentrating on guarding their surroundings, but...
I don't know if it was a coincidence or not. During the alert period, when the two of them subconsciously turned to look out the window, they discovered something with the help of the moonlight. They accidentally saw a human figure. A human figure passed quietly outside the window and just happened to escape from the courtyard.
Passed by!
Seeing this, both Cheng Ying and Chen Xiaoyao were shocked at the same time. First they looked at each other, and then...
"Mr. Liu, let me go to the toilet."
"Huh? What a coincidence, I was planning to go too."
Exactly as expected, as soon as they spotted the figure outside the window, the next moment, the two of them stood up one after another and gave reasons to leave the room. Liu Guangshui, who was frothing at the mouth, didn't pay attention to this and just waved his hands to express casualness. Song Zhiru, on the other hand,
Suddenly something occurred to him, and he turned around instinctively, jokingly reminding the two who were about to go out: "Be mentally prepared, the toilets in this rural area are not ordinary smelly. I went there once during the day, and the smell was so bad that it burned my brain!"
Let’s not talk about the smell of the rural toilet, nor the reaction of the other enforcers after the two left. Since their attention was entirely focused on the figure who just passed by, Cheng Ying took the lead as soon as she went out and arrived at the compound.
, and Chen Xiaoyao, who was following behind, moved urgently, and both walked towards the courtyard gate.
When he came to the door and looked around, he saw two figures standing vaguely about ten meters in front. They seemed to be talking to each other face to face. Unfortunately, due to the distance and the fact that both parties were deliberately lowering their voices, in fact Cheng Ying and Chen
Xiaoyao did not hear the conversation.
Of course, even if it is difficult to hear clearly from a distance, who is Cheng Ying? Who does Chen Xiaoyao need? After confirming that she could not hear clearly by staying by the door, Cheng Ying moved and borrowed money on the spot like a strong wild cat.
He galloped under the cover of night and rushed to the place in an instant
Under a big tree ahead, Chen Xiaoyao followed him almost at the same time. As the distance under the tree became shorter, he could hear the conversation clearly this time. But who would have thought that as soon as he heard the sound, whether it was Cheng Ying or not, he could hear the conversation clearly.
It was Chen Xiaoyao, both of them were surprised at the same time!
Why surprised?
The reason is very simple, that is because they heard a familiar voice, or in other words, they were impressed by the two voices talking in low voices in front of them. One of the voices belonged to Village Chief Wang as they guessed, but the other voice made them confused.
The National People's Congress was surprised. The voice turned out to be that of the middle-aged man they had met during the day! At this moment, Village Chief Wang was having a private conversation with the middle-aged man face to face!
