Chapter 171: Visiting Longji Mountain
In more than ten hours, Wang Yankai's detention period will arrive, Qu Liuqiao called Xiang Yu, suggesting that he take Jia Zuozhen to guard the door of the police station, and when Wang Yankai's detention period arrives, intercept him at the door and take him to do a brain examination to determine whether there is a possibility of Alzheimer's disease.
Tang Tian drove silently, according to the car navigation, it is not far from the straight line distance of Longji Mountain, but the roads in Jinyang City are more complicated than those in Angang City, and various viaducts crisscross each other, and it took more than half an hour to come to the intersection of provincial roads and dirt roads that Wang Yankai said.
The dirt road is generally smooth, and the woodlands on both sides of the road have been reclaimed to grow fruit trees, so both sides of the road are fenced off by steel wire, presumably to prevent anyone from entering the orchard and stealing fruit.
It was only five o'clock at this time, and the sky was gray and not yet fully lit, Tang Tian slowed down the speed of the car very slowly, carefully observed the orchards on both sides, he found that these orchards did not seem to be taken care of, through the light of the car lights scattered in the orchard, he could see the half-human-high wild grass growing between the fruit trees.
"I searched for the entry of Longji Mountain on the local portal, and the Longji Mountain we see now is only two or three out of ten of Longji Mountain, as of five years ago, there are still people blasting and quarrying here, and then Jinyang City hit hard, so that Longji Mountain has not completely disappeared from the map. Qu Liuqiao said this, very regretful emotion, "Judging from the previous photos, the original appearance of Longji Mountain is very steep, and the mountain is mainly composed of rocks, but now, only a small hill has been tossed by mining!"
Tang Tian was also very helpless about this, illegal quarrying has occurred all over the country, and there have been many mountains that have disappeared because of this crooked way.
"However, these situations on the portal are not helpful to our investigation, most of them are related to illegal quarrying in the past, and there are a few warning news about the drowning of students in the reservoir behind Longji Mountain, I think, maybe we should go to the reservoir behind to have a look?" Qu Liuqiao believes that the small hill in front of him at an altitude of less than 800 meters has no investigative value, and the reason why Wang Yankai's wife walked from here was either to get rid of possible tracking vehicles, or to rush to the vicinity of the reservoir behind.
Tang Tian actually knew very well in his heart that the "absolutely not discovered" in Wang Yankai's mouth was not reliable, but from the field observations, this dirt road really had no forks, and there were drainage canals and barbed wire on both sides.
Although the speed of the car is not fast, but it can't stand this small hill bag is not much, it only took seven or eight minutes for Tang Tian and the two of them to climb over the top of Longji Mountain, looking ahead, it is about a kilometer away from the mountain, which is the Longji Mountain Reservoir.
Tang Tian and the others got out of the car, took out the telescope and climbed to the highest point of the mountain to look down, the light is better than before, plus the telescope has a shimmer function, the green field of vision can be seen more clearly, the reservoir is not far down, there are two
A hamlet, a winding narrow concrete road connects the two hamlets in series.
"Could it be that there is a secret hidden in these two small villages?" Qu Liuwan muttered to herself, thinking that if Wang Yankai had not lied, it was very likely that his wife would have taken this dirt road into the small village.
"It's hard to say, these two villages don't have anything unusual on the surface, and most of the houses in the villages are about two floors, and they can't hide anything, unless they ......" Tang Tian suddenly thought of the caves in Lingshan Town, and the underground buildings that had almost been hollowed out under the mental hospital.
"You mean underground?" Qu Liuqiao immediately understood what Tang Tian meant, Longji Mountain had been quarrying before, and there were a large number of vehicles transporting gravel every day, and it was indeed very convenient to build underground buildings in Longji Mountain or nearby small villages, and only needed to mix the excavated earthwork in the gravel truck to hide people's eyes.
But the problem is, this can fool the people outside, but not the villagers in the village, right? Even if you spend money to buy it, you can't buy all the people in both villages, right?
"Why don't we go into the village to see the situation?" Qu Liuqiao suggested, "Anyway, the road here is complicated, and it is near the intersection of the provincial highway and the viaduct, so let's disguise ourselves as ordinary tourists, so we just said that we followed the navigation and went the wrong way, so we shouldn't be alarmed." ”
Tang Tian nodded in agreement, judging from the current situation, this Longji Mountain, which only has a small hill left, will not play any role in the investigation of the case, and if you want to continue to investigate the whereabouts of his wife as Wang Yankai said, the only possibility is these two small villages!
The car drove slowly into the entrance of the village, but this time was really embarrassing, Rao is the village people got up early, and the five or six o'clock scene was also closed in every house.
Tang Tian found a small shop and stopped at the door. Although the iron door of the shop was locked, the lights were on in the room, so it was supposed that people had already gotten up but had not opened the door. Tang Tian simply got out of the car and knocked on the door.
"Who? so early?" came a man's voice from the room, probably because he had just woken up, and the voice seemed a little confused.
"Hello, we are here to travel to Jinyang City, open the door if it is convenient, I need to buy something!" As soon as Tang Tian's words fell, there was a wave of procrastination in the house, and the iron door was opened with a creak.
A middle-aged man with a scruffy beard came out of the house, he was still holding a washing cup in his hand, and the foam on the corner of his mouth had not been washed off: "You went to the reservoir to fish, right? You guys are really hard enough, you came so early." ”
Tang Tian pretended to smile embarrassed, and explained embarrassedly, "No, no, we were going to Jinyang City Beach, but there was a problem with the broken navigation, and I followed all the way to get here!"
"Beach, then you're not far wrong!" the boss said, pulling the towel hanging around his neck and wiping his mouth, turning sideways to let Tang Tian enter the house, "What do you want to buy?
Tang Tian sweeped
Glancing at the furnishings in the house, as the boss said, most of the shelves are firewood, rice, oil and salt, there are only three or two kinds of snacks, and there are only a dozen kinds of cigarettes.
"Give me a pack of cigarettes, that's it!" Tang Tian stretched out his hand and pointed to a dozen yuan of cigarettes on the counter, and neatly took out the money and put it on the counter.
With the help of buying cigarettes, Tang Tian casually talked to the owner of the shop, and under the influence of a cigarette and a few words from the old brother, he quickly got close to the boss.
"Brother, we are also going the wrong way anyway, I see that the scenery of the reservoir on the side is quite good, can you tell us if there is anything interesting in this area?" After Tang Tian got acquainted with the boss, his tone became casual.
The shopkeeper behaved very simply, and as soon as he heard Tang Tian's words, he immediately waved his hand again and again, "Hey! What fun can we have here? To put it bluntly, it's a rural area! You have also seen Longji Mountain, and there is not much left that has been dug up! Not to mention, don't look at the reservoir is not very deep, it is evil! Since a few years ago, several people have drowned every year!"
Hearing this, Tang Tian immediately thought of the news that Qu Liuqiao had just said, "That reservoir has drowned many people?"
"That's not it!" Seeing that Tang Tian was interested in the reservoir, the boss also came to talk, he pulled over the bench and beckoned Tang Tian to sit down, and made two cups of tea quickly, "It's a long story, you are not a local and don't know, Longji Mountain was not like this before, the reservoir was surrounded by Longji Mountain in the middle earlier." At that time, our two villages relied on the reservoir for irrigation water, and everyone often ran to the edge of the reservoir, but no one drowned. But then those immoral things began to blow up the mountain and quarry, crushing the road, and completely ruining the environment, and the good Longji Mountain said that it was gone! Since then, the reservoir has begun to drown people every once in a while, and the people on our side would rather pump water from the well for irrigation than dredge the canal to divert water, and you tourists, you tourists, don't know anything, and you want to make do with the reservoir, and just drowned two fishermen some time ago!"
Hearing this, Tang Tian also drew a question mark in his heart, people who like fishing are often not bad at water. Moreover, according to this boss, there are no big fish in the reservoir anymore, and the fishermen are sitting on the shore of the reservoir, how can they be drowned?
What's more, when Longji Mountain was still there before, the water level of the reservoir must have been higher than now, why didn't anyone drown at that time? There must be something strange in this!
"Brother, according to what you say, the reservoir is so evil, no one cares about it, and it's not a problem to drown people like this?" Tang Tian couldn't ask directly, so he could only talk like this.
In fact, Shan Tangtian was really worried, this boss seemed to regard the drowning of people in this reservoir as a topic of conversation after dinner, Tang Tian asked so casually, and his interest in talking became even stronger.
At the beginning, seeing that people were killed every once in a while, the village chief organized people to build a tin house on the edge of the reservoir, not to mention the cold in spring and winter, but in summer
They are guarding day and night, but the people in our village can only take care of their own children, and the ones coming from outside are more horizontal than the other, where can we stop them?
Speaking of this, the boss took the tea bowl and gulped down the tea in the cup, and his face became nervous, "Brother, I see that you are kind, and I will tell you this alone! If you believe my brother's advice, drive away quickly, don't feel uncomfortable looking for the reservoir! My second uncle disappeared while guarding the reservoir, and he has not found his body until now! So, the reservoir is evil! We looked for Mr. Yin and Yang, and Mr. said that the reservoir was originally a big murder, and it was originally surrounded by Longji Mountain and suppressed, but Longji Mountain was gone, and the reservoir naturally began to be a disaster!"
Tang Tian didn't laugh at this, what age is it, and some people still believe in feudal superstition? If Mr. Yin Yang is really accurate, why doesn't he buy a welfare lottery ticket to get rich?
The boss also saw the disbelief in Tang Tian's eyes, and couldn't help laughing at himself, "It seems that you don't believe me, brother, then brother, I won't talk much nonsense, just listen to a story!"
Seeing this situation, Tang Tian had no choice but to get up and leave, but when he came to the door, he always felt that something was not right, and when he turned around and wanted to ask a few more words, he was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat!
