What I wanted to find out was the people around me, and I definitely couldn’t alert them. Zhang Houhou knew how to do things, so he quietly called two guys, and then waited until early in the morning, when all the lights in several rooms were turned off, before he walked out of the stall.
come out.
Like the old man, Lao Wang couldn't get used to living in a building, so he rented a bungalow two or three kilometers away. When Zhang Houhou took me there, the house was all dark, and there was only one guy here to help with daily chores.
Zhang Hou called him out first, and then woke up Lao Wang.
In the past two days, Lao Wang's spirit has become a bit sluggish. It may be that Zhang Houhou has been rummaging over the things that he least wants to remember in his heart. I feel a little sorry in my heart. If I didn't really want to find out the truth, I wouldn't be willing to bother like this.
An old man.
Lao Wang was obviously impressed by me, and Zhang Houhou might have made some introductions behind the scenes. Lao Wang knew that Lei Yingxiong had to rely on me to do things, so he was relatively friendly. He didn't say much when he was woken up in the middle of the night and made tea.
Give us something to drink.
"Uncle Wang." Zhang Houhou blew the tea leaves floating on the tea cup, looked at Lao Wang through the water vapor, and said: "Boss Wei and Mr. Lei have a life-long friendship. If the person you are talking about is someone close to him, he may
It’s a hidden danger.”
I smiled helplessly. These people were by my side, but could they be my people? Which one of them wouldn’t be more scheming and independent-minded than me? But I couldn’t tell Lao Wang these things, so I just followed Zhang Houhou’s wishes.
, pleading with him, hoping that he could put aside any worries and speak out.
"That man... really should be dead, really should be dead... how could he survive..." Lao Wang kept repeating this sentence, maybe
I felt a little excited. Zhang Houhou and I waited patiently until his mood stabilized, and then we slowly continued to ask questions.
"Let me think about it, think about it..." Lao Wang leaned on the back of his chair, raised his head slightly, closed his eyes, and tapped his forehead lightly with his fist. After a while, he opened his eyes: "
Can you suppress this person?"
Speaking of this, Zhang Houhou and I looked at each other. This person was very powerful in Lao Wang's mouth. He might be worried that even if he told the person, if he couldn't control it, it might cause serious consequences.
The moment I looked at Zhang Houhou, my mind began to spin. That person is as powerful as Mustache. He is hiding here. If he is exposed, will he jump over the wall?
"Boss Wei." Zhang Houhou whispered: "No matter who that person is, he is the only one. We have many people. We will get the news from Uncle Wang and go back to arrange it secretly and pull out the nails."
I also nodded. Anyway, Lao Wang may have been shaken and will tell us the truth.
Click...
Before Zhang Houhou and I had finished speaking, Lao Wang swayed across from us, and the cup in his hand fell to the ground and shattered. This shocked us all, and we hurried to look. Lao Wang's face instantly turned pale, and he looked very serious.
The hand holding the cup is already empty, but it is still trembling.
"Uncle Wang! What are you doing! What's wrong!" Zhang Houhou ran over and pinched the person. I seemed to have noticed something, so I couldn't help but look back, but there was nothing outside the window behind me.
"I told you I would die... I would die..." Lao Wang stood up tremblingly, pushed Zhang Houhou away, and walked towards his bedroom. No matter what Zhang Houhou said behind him, he would
Reluctant to say another word.
Lao Wang left and left Zhang Houhou and I in the house. There was nothing we could do. Zhang Houhou would only be smarter than me. He also looked at the window, smiled bitterly, and said: "Boss Wei, what should I do? You
It is also clear that this person cannot be guarded against."
Who could he be!
I ignored Zhang Houhou and thought about it by myself. There were only three people around me. Even if I suspected someone, I could deduce it through analysis. But the elasticity of age suddenly made this problem more complicated. Ma Dad more than 20 years ago
It is estimated that those in their thirties and forties are when they are young and strong, and if there is an age problem with Mustache, he must have been a strong man more than 20 years ago, including monks.
I really can’t see clearly, and the feeling of darkness and loneliness in my heart is even stronger. I am almost certain that no one can completely trust me or trust me completely. I am like a lonely puppet, passively letting others lead the way.
, whether I like it or not, and no matter how many dangers there are on the road ahead, I must go.
"Let's go." I thought for a long time, then turned around and said to Zhang Houhou: "Just do what you have to do."
Really, I already wanted to give in to fate, because I couldn't fight them, even if I risked my life, I couldn't fight them. Who that person was was of no importance to me for a while. I understood a truth and knew that he was
What can anyone do? There will be no change in my path.
Zhang Houhou didn't know how he planned to deal with this matter. I didn't ask, and he didn't take any specific actions. The next day, he urged the guys to make progress. That same day, I learned the news that Lao Wang was gone.
, left Wu Zhong, maybe he was really scared.
Immediately afterwards, the guys in charge of logistics took their equipment and set off towards Targou in advance. The team around me set off a day later. I had never paid much attention to the team, but after this incident, I couldn't help but
Secret observation. The five of them usually don't get together completely. Jiang Chen is close to Peng Bo, Ma Dad is close to the monk, and Xiao Hui likes to walk alone.
Targou is not a place with good Feng Shui. There is a river, but it dried up completely at the end of the 19th century. The guys carrying equipment hid in a mountain nook, because the surface river had dried up, and the vegetation had to rely on
They relied on precipitation to survive, so this large area of the mountain looked very bald. They covered their equipment with camouflage cloth and then guarded it for a day.
We don’t know how far away we are from our real destination, but it’s definitely some distance away. On the day we arrived, Bloomberg took a picture, which seemed to be a map. I didn’t look at it carefully, but I could tell it wasn’t printed.
It was very detailed hand-painted. He ran to discuss with Mustache for a moment, and then the monk and Bloomberg sorted out some things. It seemed that he was going out for a while.
At the place where I landed, Mustache sat motionless next to me. Ma Dad was not interested in him, and there had been friction in previous experiences, so he ignored him and deliberately moved to the side. I found that this time
Huzi followed me very closely. Even when I went to go to the convenience store, he would still stare at me, which made me very uncomfortable.
The monk walked with Bloomberg for a day, but there was no sign. I asked Xiaozhu, and he said that the two men were going to explore the tomb, and they had to make sure the location was correct. From his words, I analyzed a little bit about this place.
If there is a hole, it is probably related to the road construction. Not only is it a hole, but it is also relatively large in scale. It was built with the help of the Xixia royal family back then. These projects presided over by Ning Ming may be in several other places except Yuntan Peak.
One thing they have in common is that they have underground rivers.
This is probably related to Lu Xiuhuang's plan, which requires the use of the water power of the underground river to do something. In other words, from the very beginning, the Taoist priest was playing with the royal family and was preparing everything for himself.
"You have to hold on." Mustache looked into the distance with his eyes calmly and said: "The whole thing is heading towards the end. It is the most difficult, but as long as we go over there, everything will be solved."
"Tch." I glanced at him, a little disdainfully, because so many things have happened that I have lost trust in other people, including Mustache, so I can no longer act like before: "What you told Lei Yingxiong
, who is reliable? He said that the matter may be almost over, but it may also have just begun."
"It depends on how we do it!" Mustache ignored my disdainful snort and said to me seriously: "If you do it well, it's the end. If you don't do it well, everything will go back to the starting point."
I didn't understand what he meant, but I didn't want to ask anymore. Even if I asked, he would probably fool me with a bunch of ambiguous words.
The monk walked with Bloomberg for two days, which was within the normal range, so we were all waiting. But on the evening of the third day, something was wrong. According to the distance estimated by Mustache in advance, within this time period
, they should be back. Although the monk is relatively rough, he has a serious concern. No matter what the results of the investigation are, he should not waste time.
Mustache was still sitting quietly, looking into the distance. After nightfall, I was so sleepy that I fell asleep. At dawn the next day, I opened my eyes and found that he was still sitting there, as if he had been moving all night.
He didn't move. After I woke up, he stood up and said to me: "Something must have happened."
Jiang Chen, who had been silent all the time, immediately ordered the guys below to start distributing equipment, but there were a lot of things brought, and it would be impossible to hide them all for a while. While the guys were working over there, Xiao Hu and Jiang Chen were already heading far away.
Walk.
"Follow me!" Mustache held me tightly by his side. When Ma Dad saw that the situation had changed, he didn't care to argue with Mustache and just followed behind us.
I understand what he means. The monk and Peng Bo haven't come back for so long, and there is danger hidden in Tagou. I don't feel safe anywhere, so I can only take it with me.
There are mountain roads all around, which are very difficult to walk, especially the dirt slopes. There is no road at all. If you climb in the middle, you may slide down. The few of us rolled like donkeys and walked to noon in one breath. The vegetation here
Few, but if there is someone there, it would be difficult to detect even if they are hiding around.
My physical strength was still strong, so Xiao Hu led us to continue walking. He also had a map, which was the same as what Bloomberg had in his hand. If Monk and Bloomberg were to go forward, they should take the route marked on the map. We
I just followed them all the way. By the end of the night, I was really tired and they also needed to replenish their energy.
