Chapter 1259: Getting Closer

Zhang Xiaolong explored for three days, checked countless routes, and finally locked his eyes on the suburbs, especially after visiting, after learning that there was a farm on the nearby mountain, he rushed to this side non-stop.

"Squeak!"

Zhang Xiaolong parked his car outside the yard of the farm, and as soon as he got out of the car, he followed the open door and found that there was an electric car in the yard in front of him, and the model of this car was exactly the same as the one that Wei Ligang rode away in the clinic on the day he escaped.

"Whoa!"

After Zhang Xiaolong saw the broken electric car in the courtyard, he loaded the imitation ninety-two he was carrying, sipped it in his arms, and walked calmly towards the courtyard, according to Wei Ligang's brutal modus operandi, Zhang Xiaolong now has reason to believe that the original residents in this courtyard are likely to be gone.

"Squeak!"

At the same time that Zhang Xiaolong walked into the yard, the door of a warehouse with a pile of hay in front was pushed open, and then the old lady also walked out of the door with a bundle of hay, and after seeing Zhang Xiaolong, the old lady was slightly stunned: "Young man, who are you looking for?"

"Auntie, I have contacted Boss Liu of your farm, I want to buy a few sheep from you, come up and have a look first!" Zhang Xiaolong saw the old lady appear, his face was as usual, and he responded in a loud voice.

"Ah, you're Da Liu's friend!" the old lady nodded and said hello when she heard this.

"Yes, I want to buy sheep, but I have to come up first to see if the sheep here are up to standard, whether they are sick!" Zhang Xiaolong turned off the gun and put it on his belt, and greeted him with a smile: "Come, I'll help you!"

"No, I'm dirty! You're wearing good clothes, don't stretch your hands!" The old lady took a step back and piled the hay on the wall: "I don't know about buying sheep, you have to wait for my wife to come back, or Da Liu will come and tell you!"

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry!" Zhang Xiaolong observed the structure of the yard and stretched out his finger to the house: "Auntie, shall I enter the door and drink saliva?"

"Okay, come in and sit!"

When the old lady heard this, she greeted Zhang Xiaolong very warmly to enter the door, and after Zhang Xiaolong followed, she first smelled a faint smell of alcohol, and then walked into the room with her usual face and sat on the kang.

"Young man, come, drink water!" The old lady poured half a bowl of boiling water for Zhang Xiaolong with a bowl and brought it in, and smiled at him: "You sit down for a while, I have to go and feed the sheep!"

"Auntie, I heard that your sheep are all free-range, why do you still have to feed them?" Zhang Xiaolong asked the old lady chatteringly.

"Yes, our sheep are usually rushed to the mountains to graze, but today my old man went down the mountain to buy medicine, and I couldn't take care of it alone, so I fed the forage! Don't worry, our sheep are free-range! No hormones or anything!" The old lady heard Zhang Xiaolong's words and explained with a smile.

"Hey, then you're busy, I'll call Boss Liu!" Zhang Xiaolong chatted with the old lady briefly, then took out his mobile phone in a fake way, and after the old lady said hello, she also went out and walked towards the sheepfold with the hay.

"Whoa!"

After Zhang Xiaolong waited for the old lady to go out, he quickly rummaged through the trash cans in the house, found that there was no problem, and walked to the kitchen and opened the cupboard.

The things in the cupboard of the old couple are very simple, only a few bowls and a few iron basins, but the chopsticks inside have attracted Zhang Xiaolong's attention, in this cupboard, there are three pairs of chopsticks, two of which are very old, and the remaining pair is made of peeled branches, which is obviously very new.

"Buzz!"

Zhang Xiaolong turned around and looked, just in time to see the old Wei Tou's old scooter driving back to the yard, and then slowly closed the cupboard, swept his eyes, and fixed on the edge of the stove again, at this moment in the ashes in the stove, there is an imperceptible white, Zhang Xiaolong walked over and pulled it, the white object in the ashes is a bandage of about five centimeters, it should not be burned in the process of incineration.

"Bang dang!"

After Lao Wei parked the car in the courtyard, he stood under the car with a bag of vegetables and a bag of blood pressure and blood sugar medicine, and Zhang Xiaolong immediately went out to greet him: "Uncle, you are the old Wei that Boss Liu said, right?"

"Ah, who are you?" When Old Wei Tou entered the hospital before, he saw Zhang Xiaolong's car parked outside the door, and when he came out of the house, he asked with a puzzled face.

"This is Da Liu's friend, who came to buy sheep!" At this time, Lao Weitou's wife also happened to finish feeding the sheep and came out of the backyard to explain.

"Ah, do you want to buy lambs, or buy sheep?" After Lao Wei Tou figured out Zhang Xiaolong's intentions, he handed the bag in his hand to his wife and asked Zhang Xiaolong.

"Our company has an employee dinner next week, so we want to buy a few sheep to make roasted whole sheep!" Zhang Xiaolong explained with a smile, and he did use this excuse to talk to the owner of the farm on the phone before going up the mountain.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the backyard to pick and choose!" When the old man heard this, he strolled around and took Zhang Xiaolong to the backyard.

Zhang Xiaolong's purpose for coming over was not on the sheep itself, so he casually reached out and ordered three sheep in the backyard, and returned to the front yard with Lao Wei again.

"Uncle, I will settle on the three sheep just now, and then come over next week to pull them! My mobile phone is out of battery, you can lend me my mobile phone to use, and I will tell Boss Liu!" After Zhang Xiaolong finalized the matter of buying sheep, he opened his mouth to borrow the mobile phone from Lao Weitou.

"I don't have a mobile phone, and I usually have to go down the mountain to the village store to call him!" Old Wei Tou shook his head slightly, and in a medicine box in his pocket, he took out a dry cigarette rolled by himself and handed it to Zhang Xiaolong.

"Thank you, I won't!" Zhang Xiaolong waved his hand to refuse, looked at the surrounding environment and smiled at the old man: "Uncle, you usually live in the mountains with your aunt, don't your children come to see you?"

"I'm a lonely old man, and I have no children!" Old Wei waved his hand as he smoked a dry cigarette.

"Then where do you buy all the things you usually buy?" Zhang Xiaolong diverted the topic.

"There is a village under the mountain, and everything is sold in the village!" Old Wei opened his mouth perfunctorily, obviously a little distracted.

"Okay, then you're busy, I'll go to the car to charge and contact Boss Liu!" Zhang Xiaolong said hello to Lao Weitou, then went out to board the car, and dialed Yang Dong's phone number while making a U-turn.

"Brother Long, have you found it?" Yang Dong responded.

"It's a bit eyebrow-raising, but I still need to make sure!" Zhang Xiaolong put the steering wheel, thought for a few seconds, and then continued to speak: "You have to find a way to adjust the road monitoring on the side of Linshugou in Gushanzi Village, both sides of this small road are connected to the national highway and the county road respectively!"

"What do you want to investigate?" Yang Dong agreed.

"An old-fashioned electric scooter with a white background and a black roof, the model is made in imitation of Land Rover, and the lamp on the left side of the rear of the car is broken, which is glued with yellow tape! The endurance of this kind of car is very average, you can check the monitoring within four hours!" Zhang Xiaolong said quickly.

"I'll let you know as soon as there's news!"

"Good!"

......

Half an hour later, Zhang Xiaolong had already driven to the nearby village, and after checking the monitoring through various means, he finally determined one thing, Lao Wei Tou had never been to this village before, so his things were definitely not bought here, and the various abnormalities that Zhang Xiaolong found in Lao Wei Tou's house gave him enough reason to believe that Wei Ligang had not only been to the farm on the mountain, but also lived there.

"Ringing ringing!"

Ten minutes later, Yang Dong's phone called Zhang Xiaolong's mobile phone again.

"How's it going?" Zhang Xiaolong asked on the phone.

"I didn't find it, the road you said is a country road, and there is no monitoring probe in this section, but the roads connected on both sides are monitored, and I haven't seen the electric car you described at all!" Yang Dong replied quickly.

"No?" Zhang Xiaolong frowned.

"There will be no problem with my message, that car has never appeared!" Yang Dong replied very firmly.

"Okay, I see!" Zhang Xiaolong heard Yang Dong's answer and spit out the gum in his mouth.

"What did you find over there?" Yang Dong asked.

"I wasn't 100% sure before, but now it seems that I should have touched Wei Ligang's shadow, in the last few days, he has been hiding in a remote farm, but I am late, and I don't know how long he has been gone. Zhang Xiaolong spoke truthfully.

"What else do you need me to do?" Yang Dong heard that Wei Ligang's whereabouts had been touched, and his whole person was in a lot of spirits.

"This kind of thing has to be touched slowly, I'll continue to check it out, let's call us!"

"Good!"

Zhang Xiaolong sat in the car, and after hanging up Yang Dong's phone, he slowly lowered the window and beckoned to a junior high school student passing by on a bicycle: "Children, ask about something!"

"What's the matter?" the junior high school student looked at Zhang Xiaolong and parked his bicycle on the side.

"Let me ask you, is there any other exit to the dirt road in front of you besides going to both sides?" Zhang Xiaolong asked directly.

When the junior high school student heard this, he looked at him curiously and didn't squeak.

"Tell me how to go out, you can take this money and go online, how about it?" Zhang Xiaolong took out a hundred yuan and handed it out through the car window, for him, the best way to find out Wei Ligang now is to interrogate the old Wei, but for an old man, Zhang Xiaolong is still difficult to start unless he has no choice.

"Really give it to me?" The junior high school student tentatively took the money in Zhang Xiaolong's hand, pointed to the dirt road and said: "Follow this road and go straight, there is a machine well room, and the fork in the road next to the machine well room can go to the next village!"

"Can I walk the car?" Zhang Xiaolong raised his eyebrows.

"Yes! When the national highway was being built a while ago, many cars detoured from that side!" the junior high school student nodded.

"Thank you!" Zhang Xiaolong heard this, directly put the car in gear, and galloped in the direction pointed by the junior high school student.
