Ye Qiu got out of the car and saw several army-green tents set up in the mountain forest not far away.
Around the tent, there were several soldiers with guns patrolling.
"Where is Tang Fei?" Ye Qiu asked.
"I'll call the chief." After the driver finished speaking, he was about to call Tang Fei when he saw Tang Fei and several soldiers coming out of a tent.
Tang Fei was wearing a military uniform and was in high spirits.
"Ye Qiu!"
Tang Fei called out, strode over and said hello to Master Changmei: "Greetings to Master Changmei."
Master Changmei said: "You're welcome, I heard from the little bastard that you are in trouble, please tell me."
Tang Fei said: "This matter is a bit strange. How about I take you to the scene to have a look?"
Ye Qiu nodded in agreement: "Okay."
At the moment, Tang Fei took Ye Qiu and Chang Mei Zhenren on foot to climb the mountain, with several soldiers following behind them.
Along the way, we passed towering ancient trees.
Some of the trees looked to be at least hundreds of years old and thicker than a bathtub.
As Ye Qiu walked, he paid attention, and from time to time he could see warning signs such as "Closed mountains for forestation, no felling" and "Protected important land, no entry".
"Is this a forbidden area in Changbai Mountain?" Ye Qiu asked Tang Fei.
Tang Fei shook his head and said: "This is not a forbidden area yet. We will enter the forbidden area later."
Climb until halfway up the mountain.
Ye Qiu saw again that a three-meter-high barbed wire fence appeared in front of him. Surveillance cameras and high-voltage electricity were also installed on the wire fence.
"The forbidden area is inside the barbed wire fence."
Tang Fei said something and took Ye Qiu and the others to walk along the barbed wire fence for a while.
Soon, two men in police uniforms appeared in Ye Qiu's sight.
They stood in front of the barbed wire fence. Behind them, the barbed wire fence was cut, leaving a large gap.
"Hello, Chief!"
When the two men saw Tang Fei, they immediately saluted.
"Thank you for your hard work." Tang Fei returned a military salute, then pointed to the gap in the barbed wire fence and said to Ye Qiu and Master Changmei: "Behind the barbed wire fence is the forbidden area. The incident site is still some distance away from here. Let's enter from here.
It will take about ten minutes to arrive.”
This means that strange things are happening in the forbidden area.
"Let's go." Ye Qiu said.
Tang Fei nodded and took the lead in getting in through the gap in the barbed wire fence.
Ye Qiu and Master Changmei followed closely behind.
Several soldiers were always following them, observing the situation around them as they advanced.
The so-called forbidden areas are actually deep mountains and old forests.
Walked for a few minutes.
"Huh?" Ye Qiu exclaimed, suddenly stopped and said, "The smell of blood is so strong."
Master Changmei closed his eyes and sniffed a few times, then said, "I smelled it too."
Tang Fei seemed to have known this for a long time and said, "The further you go, the stronger the smell of blood will be."
Ye Qiu asked: "Is someone dead?"
Tang Fei sighed and replied: "If it was just a dead person, then I wouldn't disturb you. I know you are very busy, and I have no choice but to invite you here this time. I have served in the Palace of Hades for so many years, and all kinds of strange things, big and small, have happened."
I have experienced a lot, but this is the first time I have seen something as weird as this."
"Don't worry, sir, you'll know it soon." After Tang Fei finished speaking, he continued to lead the way.
ten minutes later.
Ye Qiu saw another military tent, with four soldiers holding guns patrolling around the tent.
besides.
Ye Qiu also saw an old man with a beard and messy hair sitting on a rock smoking a cigarette. His expression was vicissitudes of life and he looked to be sixty or seventy years old.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the four warriors quickly turned their heads. When they saw that it was Tang Fei, the alertness on their faces reduced a bit.
"Is there anything new?" Tang Fei walked over and asked.
"Reporting to the leader, there is no new situation, everything is normal." A soldier answered loudly.
"That's good." Tang Fei then stretched out his hand and pointed forward and said, "Ye Qiu, you see, real person."
Ye Qiu looked forward and saw seven pine trees in his sight.
Each pine tree is as thick as a dining table, and its branches are like buckets. Suddenly, Ye Qiu's eyes narrowed.
I saw bright red blood flowing out of the trunk of a pine tree, filled with a strong fishy smell.
Obviously, the smell of blood that Ye Qiu and the others smelled earlier came from this pine tree.
"Old man, look at that pine tree, its trunk is bleeding." Ye Qiu said in shock.
"Yeah." Tang Fei grunted and said, "A patrol team member noticed that the pine tree was bleeding, went over to check, and then died."
"What's the cause of death?" Ye Qiu asked.
Tang Fei said: "I went to see a military doctor. The military doctor said that the deceased's condition seemed to be poisoned, but the military doctor couldn't see the specific poison."
Ye Qiu asked again: "Where is the deceased?"
Tang Fei said: "Inside the tent."
"I'm going to see the deceased." After Ye Qiu said that, he strode into the tent.
At this moment, the old man sitting on the stone and smoking a cigarette glanced at Ye Qiu and Chang Mei Zhenren, and then continued to smoke.
Ye Qiu noticed the old man's eyes and entered the tent without paying attention.
Upon entering, Ye Qiu saw a male corpse lying on the ground.
The male corpse was about forty years old, with a dark complexion and muscular body.
Ye Qiu inspected it and found that there were thick calluses on the palm of the man's right hand and the tiger's mouth. He said, "He should have liked playing with guns during his lifetime."
Tang Fei explained: "The deceased were members of the local patrol, and each of them was equipped with a shotgun."
Ye Qiu checked the deceased again and found that although there were no external injuries on the deceased's body, his body was covered with green spots, like centipedes.
Then, Ye Qiu grabbed the deceased's pulse and while investigating the cause of death, asked Tang Fei: "Who is that old man outside?"
"He is Uncle Shoushan." Tang Fei said.
Ye Qiu immediately understood the identity of the old man and asked, "Is he also from the patrol team?"
"Yeah." Tang Fei said: "Uncle Shoushan's ancestors have lived in Changbai Mountain for generations. Before there was a patrol team, the elders in Uncle Shoushan's family were the mountain guards. Later, when the patrol team was established, Uncle Shoushan became the captain of the patrol team."
"Uncle Morishan has worked in the patrol team for more than fifty years and is very familiar with this area."
"The deceased was Uncle Shouyama's nephew. When he died, Uncle Shouyama was beside him."
"Because Uncle Moriyama is the captain of the patrol and an eyewitness, I didn't let him leave."
"Oh." Ye Qiu said lightly, let go of the deceased's wrist, and said, "The deceased did die of poisoning."
"What kind of poison was he poisoned?" Tang Fei asked urgently.
Ye Qiu spit out two words: "Corpse poison!"
[The author has something to say]
Thank you all for the red envelopes.
Yesterday, a reader left a message saying why the heater is not turned on. My home is in a mountainous area in southwest China, and I have never seen a heater or air conditioner. I only rely on firewood for heating, which is really miserable.
