Mystery Leaks

Chapter 41 The target is me
"What did you think of?" Huang Maotou asked me with interest.

I was surprised: "Could it be that Huang Chao really came to Jinpen Township and got something extraordinary from here?"

"There is indeed such a saying, but it is not known whether he came to Jinpen Township or took anything away. The thousand-year history is full of fog, who knows?" Huang Mao shrugged.

"That's right, that's right." I nodded, everything I'm talking about now is based on clues, and no one knows the truth.

That era is too far away, thousands of years, everything has passed away.Even if there is a connection, how close can it be?

Maybe the person behind the scenes spreading nursery rhymes has ulterior motives and wants to confuse me.Those people or ghosts around me, ghosts and ghosts, will fall into their trap if they are not careful.

However, I still can't help but whisper in my heart, if Huang Chao really came to Jinpen Township 1000 years ago, where would he go?
Thinking left and right, combined with the weird thunder on Jinpenling last time, I have an intuition that there is only Jinpenling.

After this, the identity of the woman in red became more confusing.

Her appearance is very strange, and her position and position are also puzzling. I thought she should be highly involved in a series of tricks.Because she was the first to appear, but it didn't seem to be the result.

She is very detached and doesn't stick to any side. She just treats me as a "leek" and comes to harvest it every few days, and the cycle repeats.

I'm almost becoming a nanny.

"Hurry up, give me the money!" Huang Mao couldn't wait, I took out two banknotes and gave them to him, he kissed the banknotes, and rushed towards the Internet cafe like flying.

Sitting on the chair, I went over the recent events again, and felt that the most urgent thing was to find Chen Laogen. He must know a lot, especially the things in my grandfather's coffin.

Or kidnapping Feng Qiantou is also fine, but the old bastard Feng Qiantou is like a rich lady recently, he doesn't go out of the door and doesn't go out, so he has no chance.

We can only take one step at a time, and open the door to do business first.

After nine o’clock, Meng Shuisheng came. The cement in the grandfather’s cemetery dried up so he didn’t need him to watch at home. The third uncle asked him to help me take care of the store; there were so many people on the market day that I was often too busy to do it alone. .

This kid learns things very quickly, and he can get started in just a few strokes. He has the potential to be a profiteer, and he knows how to make use of his strengths and avoid weaknesses to fool others into buying things.

I am a full-time repairer, and the workload has dropped a lot, and the turnover has increased a lot in a day. I gave this guy half of his wages, and he was so happy.

After that, he helped me look after the store for many days, and I even took time to go to the county to pick up a batch of goods. For convenience, I simply gave him a key to the store.

But just in case, I told him to go home before dark and absolutely not to stay overnight in the store.Because I was afraid that he would meet the woman in red. She would be harmless to me for the time being, but it would be difficult to tell others.

……

Since the recapture of my grandfather's coffin, the days have become much calmer, and more than ten days have passed in a row.

An accident finally happened this afternoon, and it was still a big deal.

I was repairing my mobile phone, when Cao Nan rushed in in a hurry, and said with a pale face, "Leizi, it's not good, something happened to my father!"

With a thump in my heart, I stood up abruptly from the stool and hurriedly asked what was going on.

Cao Nan told the story again. It turned out that his father had brought some workers to the mountain to cut wood a few days ago, but he lost contact. According to the usual pattern, he should have returned the day before yesterday, but there was no sign of him until now.

Just now, someone posted a note on the door of Cao Nan's house, saying that if he wanted his father to come back alive, he had to take me up the mountain.

After he finished speaking, he handed me the note. I read it and it was indeed what he meant.

Somebody or something kidnapped Cao Nan's father and a few workers to force me to go up the mountain. Their real target was me.

When I was panicked, my mind was a little confused for a while, who could it be?Skinner?ghost?Or those grave robbers?
But I had to comfort Cao Nan first, saying that I would never stand idly by, and then take him to find Huang Mao.

When Huang Mao heard it, his face immediately became serious, and he said to me: "This is for you!"

"I know, what should I do now, I can't leave him alone." I said, Cao Nan is my best brother, from playing mud fights to a big friendship, his business is my business, besides this matter The roots are still in me.

"When we enter the mountain at this time, we must spend the night in the mountain. You must be prepared." Seeing that I have made up my mind, Huang Mao solemnly said.

I made it clear that although my heart was pounding, I had no choice.Huang Mao picked up his mobile phone and hurried to the side to make a call. He didn't know who was on the other side, and spoke softly.

"Leizi, thank you!" Cao Nan said to me sincerely.

I smiled helplessly: "I should be the one apologizing to you. Uncle was implicated by me and has nothing to do with you."

Cao Nan sighed, his face full of worry. His family was in the timber business and had to go to the mountains to cut logs. Some of them were contracted by the family, and some were bought from forest farms.

The existence that coerced me into the mountain must have found out about my relationship with him, so his father and a few workers detained me, and forced me to a position where I had no choice.

Otherwise, the best candidates for kidnapping should be my third uncle and aunt. They are my closest relatives. Of course, this idea is a bit embarrassing.

After Huang Mao made the phone call, we began to prepare the necessary supplies for entering the mountain, flashlight, water, dry food, bird gun, hatchet, and I brought two more fire peach pits, which were newly picked up when the grave was repaired last time. .

I knew it was very dangerous this time, so when I returned to the shop, I wrote a will. In case I didn't come back from the mountain, I would give the shop and all the deposits to my third uncle and aunt.

We set off when the sun was slanting to the west. Cao Nan rode a three-wheeled motorcycle and drove towards the north field.

His father's logging location this time is the North Farm, which is the farthest from the main peak of Jinpenling, and it is also the most primitive and closed-off of the three major forest farms. There are few people in it, there are wild animals infested, and some people were bitten to death a few years ago.

The mountain road is difficult, and the tricycle has been driving for more than two hours before reaching the North Field.

Cao Nan stopped his car in front of a mountain depression and changed to walk. He had followed his father to that forest before, so he remembered the way.

After walking for about half an hour, we arrived at the place, and the traces were obvious. There were only bare tree roots left in large tracts of woods.Cao Nan stood on a high place and looked far away, then quickly led us to the edge of the logging field.

At first glance, the three of them were taken aback.

There were chainsaws, hatchets, hemp ropes, dry food, tents and other things left on the ground. I even saw a chainsaw embedded in the wood and could not be pulled out at all.

Things are still there, people are gone!

Huang Mao carefully observed the ground, pointed to a direction and said: "The footsteps are messy, they were attacked by something, and they went in that direction."

"Follow me!" After he finished speaking, he beckoned and led us to chase down, observing the traces on the ground while chasing.

I followed behind and could hardly see any traces on the ground, but the yellow hair was very sure, circling left and right in the forest, and shuttled quickly.

After chasing for about 10 minutes, a bird gun appeared on the ground in front of him. Cao Nan ran up to pick it up, and his face turned pale, "It's my dad's gun, it was fired!"

Huang Mao also picked up the gunpowder bag on the ground and said, "The medicine bag was damp, so it must have stayed here overnight. It happened yesterday."

"So long?" I frowned slightly. This is not a good sign. The longer the time, the more dangerous Cao Nan's father will be.

Time was running out, so we continued to chase. After this chase, we chased until the sun set. The canopy of the forest was very tall, and the light quickly dimmed.

Huang Mao frowned, "I can't chase anymore. The vision is poor at night, the efficiency is too low, and it is easy to be dangerous. This happened yesterday. I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up in a while."

Cao Nan was unwilling to speak, and he hesitated to speak. Seeing this, I comforted him: "Don't worry, since their target is me, they shouldn't hurt your father and the others."

Huangmao also agreed with my point of view, "Yes, although their footsteps are messy, there are no signs of injury. At least they are safe until this point."

When Cao Nan heard this, his expression became a little better.

I sighed secretly in my heart, don't let anything too evil come out at night.
