Chapter 172 Buffalo Trough Reservoir
Looking at the direction where the crow flew away, I resolutely said, walking in the opposite direction.
At this time, I took out my phone again, but there was no signal.
Sang Lan asked in confusion while holding the woman forward: The Five Treasure Umbrella is Mr. Ye’s magic weapon, how could it harm us in the opposite direction?
I finally told them that the wild man was dead this morning.
The four people were shocked and said that they had just met the wild man in the morning, so how could he die?
I can only be silent.
Everyone wants to know the answer and the truth, but who can tell me what the truth is...
The group came to a stream and walked along the stream for a while. Zhao Qi, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.
I rushed forward and followed his gaze and was stunned.
There was actually a sideboard on the bank of the stream not far away.
When we arrived, Zhao Qi and I looked at each other at the same time.
It depends on the style. This is indeed the motorcycle we brought us, but the motorcycle in front of us is not only rusted, but some places also produce moss due to the sludge. Two tires on the three wheels were broken, and one even had a rotten tire.
As Ji Yayun said before, this is a scrapped motorcycle, how could it be started?
The parking location is obviously the location where we got off the bus before!
I made a quick decision and said I didn't care about it. Whether it was the car that took me and Zhao Qi or not, it at least proved that the direction we are heading right now. All we can do now is to walk back to the real Niujiao Village.
"mom!"
When I heard Sang Lan shouting, I saw that the woman's face turned pale and sweaty, and she was obviously overdrawn and could not walk anymore.
Sang Lan's father walked up to her and bowed his waist, saying in a deep voice: "I'll carry you."
Seeing that he was also sloppy, I couldn't help but sigh, walked over and handed the torch to his hand, turned my backpack to my side, and whispered with my eyes down:
"I'll do it."
Zhao Qi and the others did not lie. Zhao Qi saw Sang Lan and others in Niuyangou. He originally wanted to go to find Ji Yayun and me. He remembered what I said before, changed his mind, and decided to take Sang Lan and the others back to Niujiao Village first.
In their memory, they did walk for nearly four hours.
But the fact is that they must have encountered a situation where ghosts hit the wall, a ghost covered their eyes, or I didn't understand it, and they kept wandering around the mountains and finally arrived at the fake Niujiao Village.
Although the concept of time has been blurred, it is difficult to walk on the mountain road. With the age of Sang Lan's father and that woman, it is already good that she can support it until now.
What's more, before Zhao Qi and I came, they had been lost in the mountains for a while in order to find Ji Yayun...
After walking for two hours, the phone finally got a signal. Zhao Qi contacted the local police. We were driven back to Niujiao Village by the police who were driven, and then took a police car to return to the county town.
After eating some bread randomly, I didn't even take off my clothes, so I fell head-on on the bed in the hotel, sent a text message to the blind man in a drowsy manner, and then fell asleep.
...
I was woken up by the blind man's phone call and he said he had arrived and had just gotten off the train.
I reported the hotel address to him and asked him to take a taxi by himself. I sniffed on the bed for a while and looked at the time. It was already eleven o'clock in the afternoon, so I got up and washed up.
I thought the others had already gotten up, but when I went out, I happened to see Sang Lan come out of the next room.
It turns out that after a day and a half yesterday, everyone except Zhao Qi had just gotten up.
When he arrived at the lobby on the first floor, Zhao Qi was talking to an old policeman in his fifties.
Zhao Qi introduced to me that the old policeman's surname is Wu and he is an old criminal policeman in the local criminal police team.
Lao Wu was very kind. When he saw that we were all here, he said he would take us to dinner first.
The blind man arrived just so he came to a nearby restaurant together.
Zhao Qi said that he had learned from Old Wu that Yin Liuhe's death was basically similar to Pei Shaoyi and Tian Wuwen. The difference was that no talisman was found in Yin Liuhe's new home.
I just nodded, and after the food came, I wiped my mouth and said to Lao Wu:
"Officer Wu, can you help contact Officer Feng who answered us yesterday?"
"Officer Feng? Which Officer Feng?"
Zhao Qi said: "Oh, he seems to be called... Feng Dingyuan, saying that he is from Niutou Township Police Station."
As soon as he said the three words "Feng Dingyuan", Lao Wu's face changed.
After a long time, Old Wu's lips trembled twice: "Have you really met Feng Dingyuan?"
Zhao Qi and I looked at each other and nodded affirmatively.
Old Wu hesitated for a moment, opened his bag, flipped through it for a while, took out a photo and handed it to us: "Did you meet this person yesterday?"
Zhao Qi and I took the photo and looked at it, and said that it was this person.
Lao Wu's expression became solemn and he said slowly:
"He is named Feng Dingyuan, and he is indeed from Niutou Township Police Station. However, he and another colleague in the station have disappeared five years ago."
"Missing?"
Lao Wu nodded, "Five years ago, the county was going to build a reservoir. Because it belongs to the jurisdiction of Niutou Township, the Niutou Township Police Station will send two police officers to the scene to monitor the situation every day..."
"The reservoir started to be built five years ago?" I interrupted him and asked, "Are you talking about the Buffalo tank reservoir?"
"Yes." Old Wu looked at me in confusion, "Who did you hear?"
I licked my lips, looked at Zhao Qi and said, "Feng Dingyuan."
Yesterday, on the way to Niuyangou, Feng Dingyuan did talk about the Buffalo Reservoir, but he said that the reservoir was built a year ago.
After hearing Zhao Qi tell the whole story, Lao Wu seemed even more suspicious and his expression became heavier.
He said that the Buffalo Tank Reservoir was indeed built five years ago, and two workers and one engineer died in the engineering team.
Speaking of this, he was silent for a while before saying:
"But before the construction workers had an accident, Feng Dingyuan and another police officer named Jiang He had disappeared."
Seeing Zhao Qi looking at me, I scratched my head, got up and said:
"Let's go, go to Niuyangou again."
I told Sang Lan and the others that the Wild Doctor was indeed dead. No matter what happened yesterday, since he was safe now, this matter had nothing to do with them. Let them just go back to their hometown for the New Year.
The woman asked me dullly where I went for the New Year and who I spent with.
I smiled without answering her.
I suddenly thought of something and asked Sang Lan’s father what the family they borrowed the donkey cart yesterday was named.
He said that the man was an old man from Niujiao Village. The village called him Lao Lu. He came to invite the wild man to Niuyangou when he took the Lao Lu's donkey cart.
On the way to Niujiao Village, I roughly told the blind man about my experience yesterday.
After hearing this, the blind man asked me a few more detailed questions and said, "Don't go to Niujiao Village first."
"Why?" Old Wu turned around and asked.
"Let's go by yourself." The blind man winked at me.
I know that in addition to being a bit "perverted" in some aspects, the blind man is still very mature and scrupulous. Although he often jokes, I always regard him as his senior elder brother. There must be a certain reason for him to say this.
So I signaled Zhao Qi and Lao Wu to talk.
Both are criminal police officers, but due to the different jurisdictions in their regions, although Zhao Qi is young, his experience in all aspects is deeper than that of Lao Wu.
He didn't make an official voice, and just a few simple words convinced Lao Wu.
Lao Wu took us to a county auto repair shop with a link to the police and helped us borrow a van.
On the way to Niujiao Village with bread, the blind man told me and Zhao Qi about some of his thoughts about this matter.
He was rarely solemn, and Zhao Qi and I were sweating coldly when we heard this.
I came to Fengxi because I received a call from Ji Yayun, in which I was a joint investigation of similar death cases.
But based on the experience of this trip and the blind man's analysis, there seems to be another secret behind this that makes people feel cold...
When I came to Niujiao Village again, Zhao Qi and I were no longer as nervous as yesterday.
As soon as they got off the car, the two of them subconsciously looked at each other.
From his eyes, I could see that he, like me, felt the strangeness he had never felt when he came yesterday.
When we came yesterday, the policeman named Feng was already waiting at the entrance of the village, so we did not stay in the village.
