Back at the small hotel, Liang Zi and Ma Dad were already waiting impatiently. I avoided them and read through the things left by Cao Shi alone. I could see some of the strange things in them, but the meaning behind these strange things was...
I can't figure it out.
We stayed until it got dark, and then planned to leave Jiangbei. When we got in the car and gradually moved away from this city immersed in countless lights, Ma Dad seemed a little reluctant to leave, looking at Jiangbei getting farther and farther away, and sighed.
Said: "In the past ten years or so, I have been heartbroken by the people on the market. But every time I really want to leave, why do I always feel sad for a few days?"
"Ma Dad, don't be sad. It's hard to leave your homeland. You've already been buried in the earth. It's normal to be reluctant to leave home."
"Fart! I've already found someone to settle the matter. I have nothing in this life except a long life."
I was also silent. Once I left this time, I didn’t know when I would come back.
After leaving Jiangbei, I thought twice and decided to go to the provincial capital. I don't know Wei Mian's current whereabouts, but when he was injured, he was transferred from Jiangbei to a hospital in the provincial capital.
Of course, I don't expect to find him here, but I just try to make this trip without any regrets other than human resources.
Liang Zi was lame in one leg, and no one would suspect him if he showed up in the hospital, so he went to explore the way while we waited outside. After a long time, Liang Zi came back, and the news he brought was as expected. There was nothing about Wei Mian.
clue.
"Let's go, you can leave in peace."
Mustache arranged for us to leave the provincial capital and go south to Nanjing. He seemed to be familiar with the locals here, and he arranged for us to stay not in a hotel, but in a two-story villa in a high-end community. I suspected that this was his nest.
Living in Nanjing is very comfortable. Ma Dad fell in love with salted duck. Although I don’t like the artificial landscape in the community, the conditions are indeed very good. It is no exaggeration to say that in this two-story villa, no matter what
Whatever I need, even if it's already midnight, someone will be there to take care of it right away. In the Golden Dust Land, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, there are many places to play. The monk drove a different car to take us out every day, which was very exciting.
Abundant material enjoyment did not make me very happy. I always missed the old man very much. From the moment I was adopted by him, I was destined to have owed a debt that I could never repay in this life. Giving kindness is not as important as cultivating kindness.
, as a son, if I let my old and frail father live and die and his whereabouts unknown, I think I will always live a very heavy life.
At the beginning, I thought I could handle my personal emotions well, but this heavy pressure began to affect me unconsciously. Sometimes I would suddenly lose focus while doing something, and sometimes I would suffer from insomnia all night long.
I was a sign of neurasthenia. I kept secret what Cao Shi said to me and the photos and account books he left behind. However, I finally couldn't bear it after suffering day by day, so I told the monk alone that I wanted him to help me.
Check something.
"What to check?"
"I don't know the specific situation. It may be a person or a gang. I only know that his name is '6'."
"6?" The monk looked at me in confusion: "You have to have a general scope to check things. If you check things in the circle, I can help."
"I can't tell if this 6 is from the circle. Anyway, please help me and try your best to check."
In fact, I also know that it is very difficult to trace a person or organization with a mysterious background based on a code name without any reason, because my knowledge is indeed limited and I cannot provide more clues. Moreover, the so-called code name '6',
Maybe it's just the old man's personal name for it. For example, my real name is Wei Tian, but the old man keeps calling me little bastard. This nickname only exists between me and him.
Monk Fengfenghuohuo has been running around outside for two days, but I haven't found any clues about '6'. I originally wanted Mustache to go out and check again, but I thought that he and Monk should have the same connections. If I
If you beg him, he will definitely continue to investigate, but the hope is still slim.
I suddenly felt that I had lost all my life goals. This feeling is not painful, but it is scary.
On the second weekend after arriving in Nanjing, the monk invited me to dinner. I was not in the mood. When he and Ma Dad went out, I sat blankly on the sofa. Mustache made a pot of tea and sat across from me, handing me a cup.
Say: "Still thinking about that '6'?"
"Hey!!!" I let out a long sigh: "It's a lie if I don't want to, but it's just a waste of time to think about it."
"The reason you checked for clues about '6' is to find Wei Changkong."
"you still need to ask?"
"Actually, for a person who is hiding, this is not the only way to find him." Mustache took a sip of tea and said: "If you really can't find him, you can change the method, for example, let him come out on his own."
"Don't kid me."
"There are eight Xixia bronze medals in total. After collecting them all, it will be possible to gain insight into the secret of this matter. If you use this secret as bait, I believe that not only Wei Changkong will not be able to help but show up, but it will also attract more people than you expected."
people."
After thinking about it for a while, I realized that this was indeed a very effective method, and I suddenly became energetic. Mustache continued: "To be honest, I have always wanted to know this secret, but I had no capital before because I only had a piece of Xixia in my hand.
The bronze medal is different now. As long as we get the remaining four pieces, the secret may be completely revealed."
Of the eight Xixia bronze medals, Xiao Hui has four in his hand. As far as I know, there should be one for Gloomy Face and one for Lei Yingxiong. These two are visible. As for the remaining two bronze medals that have not been shown,
Who knows where.
"What are you going to do? To rob Lei Yingxiong? Or lie to him?" I smiled. Mustache knew Lei Yingxiong's reputation on the road better than me.
"Let's work separately. I'm responsible for getting the bronze medal. You need to do another thing, a very important thing." Mustache put down the teacup, stood up and said, "Follow me."
I thought I was going out, so I grabbed some clothes, but Mustache took me to his bedroom. This guy was considered a rich man, living in a house worth tens of thousands per square meter, but the bedroom was so shabby.
There are only a few pieces of old furniture and a hard bed. This kind of old furniture has nothing to do with cultural relics. It is the kind of thing that has been used for decades. Although it is hard to find now, it is definitely worthless.
Mustache took out the video player and picked a video tape in the cabinet. I thought it was something I had never seen before, but as soon as the screen came out, I knew it was the one I had watched when I first met him, because the video was shown to me.
The impression left was so profound that I can’t even forget it.
"Have you not seen this tape before?"
"Watch it again to deepen your impression." Mustache took the remote control and started fast forwarding. When the frightened man in the video was carried into the cave, the video stopped and stopped at the dark entrance of the cave.
.
"For a long time, I have wanted to know what happened in the cave. This is a very crucial link in the whole thing. You probably want to know too."
"It's not an estimate." I corrected, "I definitely want to know."
"What you have to do now is to find out what happened in the cave, and I will find a way to find the remaining bronze medals."
"You think so highly of me." I wiped a layer of sweat from my head: "Do you think I can do it?"
"If you can't do this, I can't do it either. The background of the people in the video is very complicated. I have been tracing it for a long time. Their leader is a man named Liang Chenghua. I placed one of my own people next to Liang Chenghua.
I have been working for more than a year, but I still can’t get in touch with the core things. Now I can only let you try again.”
"Let me sneak in?" I looked at Mustache hesitantly, feeling like he was talking in his sleep.
"Only you can sneak in." Mustache suddenly focused his eyes on my left hand: "Liang Chenghua never accepts anyone, except for one kind of people, that is, those with six fingers. The guy I placed in also has six fingers, but he
There is no hope anymore, so you must do this."
"Six fingers..."
I slowly stretched out my left hand, and the ring-shaped six fingers next to the little finger seemed very eye-catching at the moment. I am not smart, but I am not very stupid. After a series of things, I can vaguely feel that these six fingers do not seem to be
Extremely simple.
"Why is this person's hobby so special? Why do he only have people with six fingers?"
"We don't know yet. Don't think that you can sneak in with just six fingers. Liang Chenghua has many rules for recruiting people. The most important thing is that the origin must be clear. The news of Wei Changkong's capsize has now spread. Your identity is that of his associate.
The reason why your old club collapsed and you need to find another place to earn a living should be logical. Plus you have six fingers, so you have a great chance of getting in. Someone will take care of you when you get there. Do your best after you get there and find out what happened in the cave.
, If it doesn't work, I will find a way to bring you back." Mustache handed me another photo: "This is our man, his name over there is Ma Fei, please recognize him clearly."
"This Ma Fei and I both have six fingers. If he can't handle something, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to handle it. Don't get me wrong. It's not that I don't want to work."
"Everything depends on human effort. No matter what you do, you should fight for it when you have the opportunity. You should understand this truth." There was a hint of encouragement in Mustache's eyes. Looking into his eyes, I seemed to find my self-worth in an instant. It turned out that I didn't
It's not useless.
I was a little confused. Mustache’s meaning was very clear. He wanted me to be an undercover agent. I didn’t agree or refuse because I kept thinking, if I tried my best to do it, would it really happen?
Can the old man show up?
I thought about it for a while, and suddenly I felt excited. If I could find the old man, I felt that everything I had done would be worth it. Moreover, what happened in that video also made me want to witness it with my own eyes.
