Before getting off the car, Zhang Fan handed a human skin mask to Nangong Qing, "Put it on."
Although this human skin mask is a man, when worn on Nangong Qing's face, coupled with Nangong Qing's long black hair and figure, people will think that she is a woman, but she is not beautiful. In this way
, at least it can hide from the eyes of the local Xuanmen person Nangong Qing mentioned.
After Nangong Qing put on the mask, the two got out of the car together. At this time, Nangong Qing looked like a woman in her thirties.
"Where do we start?
Xiaofan?"
Nangong Qing asked.
In Hehong Nature Reserve.
There are asphalt roads, wetland swamps and artificial waterways and puddles in wetland swamps. These man-made waterways and puddles are connected to the asphalt roads, which can transport tourists into the swamps, making it more convenient for tourists to take pictures.
"We will take a boat later, pass through these waterways, puddles, and walk in the wetlands and swamps to see if we can find some clues."
Zhang Fan opened his mouth and said.
Nangong Qing nodded.
At this moment, Zhang Fan felt a Tao Qi coming from the right side of his body.
However, Zhang Fan didn't show any special behavior. He just slowly turned his head and took a look. He was a man of about thirty-five years old, with fair skin and a well-mannered appearance.
Nangong Qing also followed Zhang Fan's gaze and saw that his pupils shrank slightly.
"What's wrong?"
Zhang Fan noticed the change in Nangong Qing's expression.
"This man is the local Taoist man I mentioned to you before..." Nangong Qing whispered in Zhang Fan's ear, "His name is Li Shuli."
What a coincidence. Not long after arriving here, I met him. Thanks to the human skin mask, otherwise, he would have been recognized by the other party, Nangong Qingxin said.
Zhang Fan is a strong person in the third realm. It is easy to hide his aura in front of cultivators below the third realm. Nangongqing wears spirit stones, so Li Shuli did not feel the auras of Zhang Fan and Nangong Qing. Li Shuli was like this
He passed by Zhang Fan and Nangong Qing.
"Why did he come alone?
Where is the victim?"
Nangong Qing looked at Li Shuli's back and said with confusion.
Zhang Fan looked at where Li Shuli came from and took a closer look. The two third-level cultivators could feel each other's presence even if their strength was very different.
"Except for Li Shuli, there are no other practitioners around us."
Zhang Fan replied.
"Is it possible that he, like me, doesn't want to be the one responsible for the crime?
Go out and work alone?"
Nangong Qing made her guess.
Zhang Fan didn't know what was going on, so he didn't answer the conversation, but said, "Let's go take a boat."
After the two came to the long queue, Zhang Fan and Nangong Qing quickly boarded the boat because there were many boats. One boat could hold twelve people. Zhang Fan felt the auras of these people. They were all
Ordinary tourists are not cultivators.
The boat swayed on the artificial waterway on the wetland swamp. The route the boat took, the artificial waterway, and the distribution of puddles all covered the locations where the python's body was hidden.
The two of them just admired the scenery, observed, and sensed the strange places around them.
It took a full hour to walk around. Zhang Fan and Nangong Qing also sensed the surrounding situation, but they did not find anything strange. Apart from swamps and wetlands, they were the plants growing on them.
When we returned to shore, it was almost noon.
"Find a place to have some food, and then proceed to the next step."
Zhang Fan opened his mouth and said.
"What's next?"
Nangong Qingdao.
Zhang Fan pointed to the security room not far away.
"You mean to ask the security guard about the situation?"
Nangong Qingdao.
"Well..." Zhang Fan nodded.
The two of them ate some food around and then came to the security room. A middle-aged man in his sixties was leaning on a rocking chair, playing short videos with the volume loudly.
Seeing Zhang Fan and Nangong Qing enter the door, the old security guard put away his cell phone, sat up straight and asked: "You two, what's the matter?"
"No big deal, just chatting."
Zhang Fan replied casually, and then continued to ask, "Uncle, how many years have you been working here?"
"This is the sixth year."
The old security guard replied.
"It's really not a short time."
Zhang Fan answered, "Is it shift work or you?
Are there any holidays?"
"There are no shift workers, so I am the only security guard here.
I do have holidays, two days a month, but I have never taken a holiday. My wife passed away more than ten years ago, and my children are also married. When I go home, it is just me. They come to see me every month.
, meeting them here is no different from going back to see them.
You have everything here, you don’t have to pay for water and electricity, and if you don’t take the holidays you should take, you will get three times your salary.”
The old security guard laughed.
The incident of hiding the dragon body here was recently exposed. If there really were strange scenes related to the dragon body here, the old security guard who has been here for six years and has never left is enough to see it.
"It's okay during the day, there are a large number of tourists, but at night you are alone in this wilderness, aren't you scared?"
Nangong Qing is preparing to get to the point.
"When I was young, I was never afraid of sleeping in a cemetery. What is there to be afraid of in this wilderness?"
The old security guard said nonchalantly.
The old security guard lit a cigarette and took a sip of tea. "You two come here to see me. It should be more than just a chat. Let's talk about anything you have to say."
Having reached this point, Zhang Fan no longer concealed anything, "We would like to ask, in all the years you have lived here, have you ever seen any strange scenes in the swamp?"
"It seems that you two are here for the body of the python dragon."
The old security guard took another puff of cigarette.
As soon as these words came out, Nangong Qing's heart was slightly shocked, and he subconsciously blurted out, "Are you also a practitioner?"
"I am not a practitioner, I am just an ordinary person."
The old security guard said, "Someone asked me the same question a few days ago, and then I heard their conversation outside my house, so I knew that the two of them were here for the python body."
Zhang Fan also thought that someone like him had come to the old security guard to inquire about the situation, so he was prepared and not too surprised.
"Then did you see any strange scenes?"
Zhang Fan continued to repeat the previous question.
"No...I don't have anything..." the old security guard answered happily.
Before the old security guard finished speaking, Nangong Qing took over and said: "If you tell us the strange scene you saw truthfully, we will pay a certain amount of compensation regardless of whether it helps us seize the body of the python dragon or not."
The old security guard looked at Nangong Qing and smiled, "I really didn't see it."
