Mystery Leaks

Chapter 114

Looking at Huang Mao and Hu Lai, I felt sullen and said, "Where did you two go? You didn't even say hello before you left. What are you doing?"

As soon as they left, Cao Nan and I thought they had gone to the Wuming Mountain, but we ran in and were blocked by the three brothers of the Tu family, and almost died inside.

"That's right, what are you doing?" Cao Nan said in displeasure.

"We went to chase the boa, the situation is very urgent, and it's not dawn yet, so I didn't want to take you there for fear of danger." Huang Mao said.

"Then where did you chase after?" I asked hastily.

Huang Mao spread his hands, "Jinpen Mountain, where else could it be? The python came back after a circle, and went straight to Jinpen Mountain. We didn't care about other things, so we immediately chased after it."

"The result?" Cao Nan asked.

Things were pretty much the same as we had guessed, the only difference was that the location was wrong, we went to Wuming Mountain in South Field, and they went to Jinpen Mountain in North Field.

Huang Mao looked at Hu Lai, Hu Lai shook his head, and said in confusion: "The python and the box got into Jinpen Mountain and disappeared."

Cao Nan and I were speechless for a while; the iron box caused the clouds to move in all directions, fighting constantly, and it disappeared.

I thought of the exorcist who was hiding in the dark, and I was terrified. What was this man planning to drive the pythons to Jinpen Mountain, and what was his purpose.And why the tomb robber didn't go together, but went to the Wuming Mountain, but he didn't seem to come up with anything, so he went out after a round, and killed Tu Xiong and Tu Bao.

"I feel like that person... doesn't want the iron box to be opened." Huang Mao said, scratching his chin.

"Who is the holy one?" Cao Nan asked, "You have chased him so many times, have you never seen him?"

Hu Lai shook his head, "I feel that he is either a stranger or a native of Jinpen Township."

After a pause, he added: "Of course, this is just my intuition, without any evidence, because this person seems to be very familiar with Jinpen Township, otherwise it would be unreasonable to avoid being tracked by so many forces repeatedly, it is not easy. "

I meditated. The people in Jinpen Township, to be precise, should be familiar with Jinpen Township and understand legal affairs. It seems that there are not many known people. Aunt, Tomb Robber.

The tomb robber can be ruled out first, because he was in Mrs. Jindi's snake mound at the time, and Sai Jinhua and Sai Jinhua's bodyguards were together, so it seems that he can also be ruled out.

But one thing to note is that when the python was unearthed in Taohualin, Sai Jinhua's bodyguard appeared and saved my life.He could directly connect with the python, but it was precisely this point that he exposed. If he was an insect exorcist, it seemed that he should hide.

Magu doesn't seem to have that ability, she still needs to know more about this person, she should be hooking up with the tomb robber, and she doesn't have the ability to make a big scene.

That leaves Chen Laogen.

The night before the python pierced my grandfather's empty coffin, he set up an formation in the Peach Blossom Forest, but was destroyed by the shadow stealing the rooster.It was only later that I found out that the array he arranged was similar to that arranged by Hu Lai, they both used array stakes and killed a rooster to draw blood.

After the cock was stolen, he hurried away, asking me not to tell the story.

Could it be that Chen Laogen is the bug exorcist hiding in the dark?

I was shocked!

If I didn't think about it, I didn't realize it. When I thought about it carefully, Chen Laogen felt that something was wrong at that time. He was not an insect repellent master, so he could use the magic circle to charm the python?

And his later performance was also the same, he felt very nervous, retreated immediately when nothing happened, and never came to me again after that.

But there is also a problem with this presumption. Chen Laogen is already so old that he can get tired and out of breath after hitting a few stakes. Does he have the stamina to chase a python up and down the mountain?I watched him secretly when he was driving the piling. He didn't know it, and it couldn't be pretending to deceive me.

I can't help but shake my head, this doesn't feel like it at all, insect repellents need physical strength, and people who are over fifty years old basically have to retire.What's more, the pythons came from the Yellow River to the south of the Five Ridges, a distance of several thousand kilometers.

Suddenly, I thought of someone again!
It was the man who threw stones and caused damage, and had scalds on his hands. He seemed to have the conditions.

First, when setting up the array indiscriminately, he knew that throwing stones and hitting dogs would let the python see through it, which showed that he knew the magic circle of repelling insects very well, and hit the vital point with one blow.

Second, he has very good physical strength, and he ran fast after being bombarded by me.

Third, he is a native of Jinpen Township. Wei Xiaomin from the health center said he has a local accent, and I must have known him before, so he is neither a stranger nor acquainted.

That person hasn't taken the lead so far, I don't know who it is, and he is very cautious.

In this way, that person must be checked carefully. It is very important. If you find him, you may be able to solve a considerable part of the problem.And after a while, his vigilance should have lowered.

"What did you think of?" Huang Mao asked when he saw that my expression was different.

So when I explained the deduction, Huang Mao and Hu Lai both murmured, but when they expressed some opinions, Liu Erlong touched his chin and said: "You said that the man with the scar on his hand, I seem to have seen it somewhere."

"Who?" My heart skipped a beat and I hurriedly asked.

But Liu Erlong thought for a long time, but shook his head, "I can't remember for a while, but there is such a person."

"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Huang Mao gave him a blank look.

"I...I'll think about it, and I'll tell you when I think about it." Liu Erlong was a little embarrassed.

I nodded, and there was a glimmer of hope in my heart, as long as I saw it, maybe I could remember it in a few strokes.

After a pause, I asked Hu Lai: "Is it true that the python can't be found? There are so many ghosts and ghosts, so many places can be visited, right?"

"Other places are fine, but Jinpen Mountain is not." Hu Lai shook his head and said, "You should also be able to feel it. There is a large tomb in Jinpen Mountain. Inside, living people are forbidden, ghosts are forbidden, and pythons crawl under it. , unless you find the bug exorcist, the iron box may not be taken back."

"Then you won't be in danger?" I asked hastily.If the group of ghosts were crazy and wanted to seize the iron box, they might force Hu Lai to find a way, and even think that the python swallowed the iron box in one gulp, which was driven by Hu Lai, which would be even more dangerous.

This is also the reason why Hu Lai chased the python up the mountain in the first place, and immediately chased after him in a hurry, for fear of misunderstanding.Everything the python does will be blamed on Hu Lai.

"There will be some trouble, but so many things have happened, they should know that the python is not under my control." Hu Lai nodded, his face a little dignified.

"It's okay, you can go to Xiaohonglou." Huang Mao held back a smirk, and said, "It's safe there, ghosts and ghosts dare not go there."

Hu Lai rolled his eyes and stopped talking, I stared at Huang Mao, he was unwilling to tell me the secret of the Little Red Mansion, and now he brought it up again.

When Huang Mao saw my eyes, his face froze for a moment, and he immediately changed the topic, "Well... can this stele really shine?" After speaking, he opened the waterproof backpack on the ground and took out the Qin Zhuan stele inside. .

"Nonsense, if it weren't for it, we wouldn't be able to get out at all." I said.

"Let me take a look." Hu Lai took it and looked at it carefully for a while, and said, "This thing is indeed weird, and your luck is too good, such a useful thing is actually hanging around your neck."

"They treat me like a coolie, what's so strange about that." I said, it weighs about twenty catties, but it's not light at all. When being chased by a snake, I couldn't run away and was almost bitten to death.

"Really?" Huang Mao raised his eyebrows, seeming a little suspicious.

I didn't dwell on this question, but looked at Liu Erlong and asked, "By the way, why did you go to the grave with the three brothers of the Tu family?" I've always wanted to ask this question, but I didn't find a chance.

"Revenge." Liu Erlong took it for granted, and said: "They came to find me as a coolie, so I will go. There are many opportunities for revenge in the tomb, and you don't have to go to jail. It's a pity that you didn't kill Tu Hu, or you would be completely relieved."

I was speechless for a while, the reason was justified, the hatred biting the bone, the thorn in the flesh, it was unbearable for a moment, but I always felt... Isn't it simple and rude?
But since Liu Erlong said it, I can't ask any more questions.He saved me and Cao Nan twice in a row, but now we owe him a favor.

After we chatted for a few more words, Huang Mao said that he had to go back quickly, it was getting dark, and Hu Lai's current situation was not suitable for night activities.

We agreed, so we hurried back to our hometown while it was still light.
