When Lin Dazhu came to his senses and ran back to report the news, Songzi and Qiao Lin brought people over, they were also shocked by the scene in the house.

The furnishings in the room are very old and simple, there is not too much furniture, the kang is piled up with quilts, the ground is messy, a middle-aged man was strangled by a rope, leaning on the edge of the stove, staring at the direction of the door with a hideous face.

"His name is Xiao Haijun, an outsider, and he has been coming to Linwang Village for several years. Outside, Lin Dazhu was talking to a policeman in shock.

The movement here also alarmed the people in the village, and many people gathered outside the wall, all leaning against the wall and sticking their heads out to look inside.

Lin Wang Village is so big, every family knows each other, and there has been no such thing for many years.

Adults and children are not afraid, and some are still fighting.

Matsuko took people around the van next to the house, and then went inside to take a look, and then asked people to notify the district bureau to take over, they didn't have time to spend on this, and there were more important things waiting for them to do.

In addition to the footprints left by Lin Dazhu by the window, there are also several obvious lines of footprints extending from the gate, from the left side of the village to the mountain.

If it weren't for the fact that all of Wu Yongqiang's subordinates were field experts, there would really be no way to distinguish the scattered footprints destroyed by the villagers.

"It seems that there are a lot of people, at least a dozen of them!" At the place where the foot of the mountain enters the mountain pass, Matsuko follows the footprints until he stops.

"Could it be the underground guys?" asked Jolene guessingly.

"It's hard to say!" said Songzi, "However, it only snowed heavily yesterday, and if it weren't for Captain Wu's soldiers discovering the footprints covered in snow, it would have been difficult for us to find that someone had sneaked in." ”

In Xiao Haijun's house before, they found some clues.

The time of Xiao Haijun's death was probably in the early hours of the morning before yesterday, and the van left behind was covered with mud, and it was really not easy to find if you didn't look closer, because the van was parked between the house and the earthen wall next to it.

Thanks to Lin Dazhu, he felt a little strange and came over to take a look, otherwise he really didn't know when he would be discovered.

"Let's say Xiao Haijun is an accomplice of this group, but why did they kill him?" Qiao Lin asked again.

"Kill people!" Songzi said, "or there is a disagreement when discussing things, in short, they must keep Xiao Haijun shut up for whatever reason! It's just that I don't understand a little now, since they want to kill people, why don't they clean up the scene properly? and leave the van here!"

"Could it be that they didn't expect to be found so soon?" the pony interjected.

"Or, they don't plan to come back at all?" Xiao Liu also said his guess.

"Reliable!" When Songzi heard this, he slapped Xiao Liu on the body, slapped Xiao Liu and hit the tree next to him, and a large pile of snow fell from the tree, causing several people under the tree to jump to the side together.

"Damn!" Xiao Liu said while pulling the snow on his head, "Can you rely on it?"

A few laughs eased the tension of the matter, and a few people discussed it in a low voice, and then went back.

A large number of reinforcements were about to come, and I happened to discuss the plan to enter the mountain with Wu Yongqiang's soldiers.

When I returned to the small courtyard, there were two trucks parked at the door, one was sent by the Jin Provincial Bureau and the other was sent by the armed police force.

Now that Hao Wenjie is not here, everything has to be arranged temporarily by Songzi, and their instructor on Wu Yongqiang's side, a man in his thirties named Zhang Hu, came with the supplies.

The two arranged for someone to distribute equipment and supplies, and returned to the house with Jolene.

"We now add up to a total of forty-six people!" Zhang Hu said, "The leader of the detachment, I will divide the rest of the men into two teams to follow you, one way from the right side of the Hao team and the Wu team in the direction they left, the other team follows the footprints left by the suspicious people into the mountain, our soldiers are all field combat masters, as long as they walk through, no trace can escape their eyes!"

Matsuko nodded in agreement and looked at Jolene, "Team Joe, do you have any suggestions?"

Qiao Lin shook her head, "It's very reasonable, but there are still people left here, one is to let the village chief cooperate to ensure the safety of the people and items here, after all, there are already a lot of cultural relics that have come out, and safety is still the first!" The two nodded, and Qiao Lin continued: "There is also to cooperate with the district bureau to deal with the case of the villagers being killed, whether it is related to the group of tomb robbers or not, we must solve the case as soon as possible and give the villagers an explanation, so as not to make people uneasy!"

"It's still Captain Qiao's thoughtfulness!" Zhang Hu said approvingly, "If there is no other opinion, I will arrange it now?"

"Okay, let's go too! the sooner we move, the better, and bring more supplies, after all, Team Hao has been missing for two days. Matsuko said.

The three of them discussed it and left the house.

Professor Ma waited in the courtyard and saw them come out to meet him a few steps, "Well, can we go with us?"

"Professor Ma, I understand your feelings, but now we have to get people back first, it's better for you to take everyone here and wait here!" Among them, Qiao Lin and Professor Ma are the most familiar, so she will also speak the words.

"I'm worried, once we go inside, we encounter an emergency, after all, we have experienced a lot, in case we encounter a mechanism or something, we can also help!" Professor Ma explained, seeing Qiao Lin's hesitation, he said again: "In this way, my old arms and legs will not cause you trouble, I will find two young ones, and there is no problem with those with experience! We also want to be able to help, no matter what the reason, they are all because of an accident in our work, we all want to be able to contribute!"

Professor Ma said sincerely, and he didn't know when many people came over behind him, all of whom were from the archaeological team and the Cultural Relics Bureau who came here to work.

Assistant Li said: "Captain Qiao, I am young, experienced, and my physical strength is reasonable, so I have no problem following." ”

"And me!"

"I can do it too!"

Seeing that they all wanted to follow, Qiao Lin's heart warmed, but her professional habits still made her refuse, "It's not that I don't trust everyone, because this time we may be facing a real and vicious tomb robber, this gang is different from what you have encountered before, not to mention the degree of ruthlessness, they are also very likely to carry modern weapons, as a policeman, I can't let you follow to the adventure!"

Seeing what everyone else had to say, Qiao Lin simply said directly: "Everyone continues to work here and ensure safety, which is to give us the greatest support and help, and wait for us to come back with peace of mind, we will definitely find them back!"

Without waiting for Professor Ma to say anything more, Jolene had already stepped out.

She went to the tent and changed into the same field combat uniform as Wu Yongqiang and them, brought a headset, covered her face with protective goggles, and carried gas masks and other equipment and supplies in the backpack behind her.

The guns are still their own, but Wu Yongqiang's soldiers have changed into individual combat weapons.

When everyone was ready, Jolene led a group of people into the mountain from the direction they left on the right side of Luofan, while the other team led Matsuko into the mountain from the left side following the footprints left by the suspicious person.

Professor Ma and the others could only stand at the door worriedly and watch them leave, and it took a long time for them to return to work one by one.

On Songzi's side, an armed policeman walked in the front, observing back and forth from top to bottom, left and right, and squatting down from time to time to look at the snow.

Don't look at those people who entered the mountain two days ago when it was snowing heavily, and the footprints that stepped out were covered by snow, but now when you look at the sun, each line of footprints still shows a shallow trace of shape, stretching into it in a twist and turn, and when they follow the footprints into the mountain, they find that these people are deliberately avoiding all the sight angles in the village that can see this side.

After walking inside for a long time, they finally found an unusual place at the corner of two mountains.

It was a crevice at the edge of the rock at the foot of the mountain, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, allowing only one person to pass through, and the row of footprints was particularly cluttered here, and then disappeared.

"I think it's from here!" said the soldier looking back to Matsuko.

Matsuko took a deep breath, pulled the lighting band on his head from the top of his head to his forehead, and pointed the flashlight in his ear directly ahead, "Get in!"

Slowly, a group of about 20 people disappeared into the crack of the mountain one by one.

On Qiao Lin's side, she and Zhang Hu and her party walked all the way to the place where Wu Yongqiang's men were stationed, which was also next to the entrance of the cave where Luo Fan and the others went down.

When the people left behind saw Zhang Hu, they all ran out one by one and stood in line.

"Instructor!"

Zhang Hu waved his hand, "The others are disbanded, what should they do, you tell me about the situation!" he pointed to one of them.

After the people who stayed behind briefly explained what had happened, they pointed to the hole that had been sorted out and said: "Mr. Luo went down from here again, saying that if you come again, don't go down, the situation below is complicated, the cave is like a maze, if you lose a few more, then you don't have to do anything, just find someone to play!"

This person said what Luo Fan said, he didn't dare to discount it, and said it word for word.

Jolene thought to herself, it really looked like Luo Fan said this.

But if you don't go down, what if something goes wrong below?

Zhang Hu thought for a moment and walked back to Qiao Lin's side, "Captain Qiao, what do you think?"

Qiao Lin also knew that at this time, she had to make up her own mind, and the armed police were originally here to support, and the specific arrangements depended on her side and the pine nut side.

"Let's get in touch with Matsuko and see what they think!" Jolene said.

Zhang Hu nodded, and immediately asked people to contact Songzi's side, only to learn that just half an hour ago, they had already entered the underground along the traces first.

"In that case, we don't have to hesitate to go down!" Jolene finally clapped.

Zhang Hu asked the people who stayed outside to keep in touch with the outside world, and left some equipment and supplies, and went down to the bottom of the cave along the makeshift ladder they had repaired at the entrance of the cave.

When they arrived, everyone sighed at the subtlety of nature, and although such natural underground cavities were not uncommon, few of them could be associated with ancient tombs.

Following the traces left by the first to enter, Qiao Lin and Zhang Hu were in front, all the way inside.

When they reached the fork in the road, they saw an arrow mark painted on the wall and headed to the left.

In a karst cave that they didn't know how far away, Fat Dahai sat next to each other with Jiang Weichen and Yuan Lang.

The fat sea boredly pulled the gravel next to it and threw it into the underground river in front of him, making one "poof" sound after another.

"Can we get out?" asked Fat Dahai, obviously a little tired and unmotivated.

"Patronizing and chasing in, who knew that there were so many holes in it, and I didn't find anyone to say that I was lost. Jiang Weichen said, "I'm so hungry!"

Yuan Lang also lost his strength, leaned on the stone next to the two, and smiled.

"Laugh at it!" Jiang Weichen kicked him with his foot, although he didn't have much strength, he only made Yuan Lang's leg crooked.

"Don't laugh, then you cry!" Yuan Lang said with a smile, "I really don't know that this underground is so complicated, doesn't it mean that they are all ancient tombs?" It's good now, I didn't see the ancient tombs, but there is a maze, we don't look like guinea pigs in the maze, headless and brainless in it!"

The three of them couldn't help but laugh "hehe" when they thought about that picture.
