Chapter 1824 - Robbed by thugs
"Old man, I just walked around the town, and found that many residents' houses are well repaired, but it seems that no one lives in them all year round, what the hell is going on, if you say that young people go to work, it's not right, after all, I don't think I can make much money when I go out to work, but I look at the houses in the town, they are all built like villas, very luxurious, what the hell is going on!"
Zhang Feng didn't understand that although this town is old, many residents' mansions are very luxurious and exquisite, and it takes a lot of money to make it look like this, and it is not as dilapidated as some houses in remote villages.
But although the house here is exquisite and beautiful, it lacks a smell of fireworks, and there is only one empty house, but I don't see many people, even if I go out to work, it is impossible for every household to be a luxury house, which makes Zhang Feng a little incomprehensible and incomprehensible.
Hearing this, the old man, who was originally smiling, suddenly collapsed, and sighed incessantly, and then was silent, and he stopped talking all of a sudden.
Seeing this, Zhang Feng's heart moved, and he didn't say much, he stuffed the Chinese that had just been opened to the old man, and took out two hundred-yuan bills from his pocket and gave them to the old man, looking at the Chinese and two hundred yuan in his hand, the old man showed joy, and then said with a slightly heavy expression: "Hey, young man, for the sake of what you want to know so much, I'll tell you!"
"A few decades ago, we were still very remote here, and young people tried every means to get out of here and go outside to work, but more than ten years ago, suddenly a group of people came, saying that they needed a lot of labor to dig something, and they offered a very high price, which immediately attracted the local young people who were originally working in other places. The old man didn't know whether it was for the sake of cigarettes or money, so he talked to Zhang Feng.
"Then these people began to instruct our local people, digging everywhere, digging holes, digging for I don't know how long, about a year or two, anyway, in the end, our whole town, dug all the potholes, but that group of people has not dug up what they wanted, like this for more than a year, it is estimated that the group of people also feel that there is no hope, so finally give up. Saying that, the old man took out a cigarette of his own, and Zhang Feng hurriedly handed it over.
The old man took a deep breath and said: "For more than a year, relying on the high labor price, all the locals who participated in this work have made a lot of money, so our locals are also very happy, and this group of outsiders also said that in order to thank the locals, they want to repair houses for those who participated in this work, and those luxury houses you see are all built by that group of people, and finally, this group of people also filled the holes that were dug out of our town before with cement soil. ”
However, not long after the group left, those who lived in luxurious houses all died for no reason, and finally the government even sent people to see what was going on, after all, too many people died at that time, but in the end, no one was found. Later, those luxurious houses were empty, and no one lived in them, except for some homeless people who occasionally had to take shelter from the rain. ”
After the old man finished speaking, he took a hard puff on his cigarette, because according to his account, his son also participated in the previous excavation, and then he died suddenly and violently not long after he happily lived in a luxurious house. As for Zhang Feng on the side, some bad thoughts popped up in his heart.
Obviously, these people are not here to excavate any mineral resources or anything like that, Zhang Feng guessed, these, probably know what is in this town, and want to dig it out, but Zhang Feng is sure that these guys are definitely not successful.
After all, if you succeed, where is there so much to do, and to fill the excavated holes with cement and soil, and to repair luxury houses for those laborers, and to live in them, and die one by one within a few days?
Obviously, he just wants to kill people. Zhang Feng estimated that these people had not excavated for more than a year, and in the end there was really no way, so they made such a decision.
Bury the hole and kill the young people one by one by unknown means, after all, there are generally no outsiders in a remote town like this, as long as they solve the young people who like to go out one by one, the news will basically not spread outside. Then wait until these people have really cracked the real location of the buried treasure in the town, and then come back, and that's it.
Thinking of this, Zhang Feng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he was really worried that after going through a lot of hardships, he found the turtle shell and jade pendant, and cracked the secrets on it, but when he came here, he found that the treasure had been taken away by others, and it was estimated that Zhang Feng would vomit out a mouthful of old blood!
Zhang Feng comforted the old man a few more words and left. However, in this small town, because it is too remote, and there are basically no outsiders, so after looking for a long time, Zhang Feng did not find anything like a hotel, and he was a little disappointed.
But thinking of the very luxurious houses built in the town, although the owners who lived in it before have all died, but didn't those old men say just now, those homeless people, sometimes hide in it when it rains heavily, there is no big problem, think about the so-called danger, it no longer exists!
Thinking of this, Zhang Feng's curiosity in his heart also increased greatly, and he wanted to see what was going on with these houses, so he didn't hesitate to find a relatively remote and abandoned house and walked in.
As soon as he entered, the dust inside was raised, and Zhang Feng found that no one had come in for too many years, and the furniture inside was still well preserved, but the slightly valuable things were of course taken away, and the whole room had a strange quiet.
But that's because no one has lived in it for too long, so it's just that it's dilapidated, Zhang Feng studied it carefully for a long time, and he didn't find any mystery about this house.
According to Zhang Feng's estimate, probably at the beginning, when these houses were built, those outsiders should have added some chemical poisons, so that people lived in this environment for a long time, and slowly died because of the deep poisoning, in this case, even if the police came to investigate, it is estimated that they could not find out what the reason was.
And after so many years, the wind has blown away, and it is estimated that those chemical poisons have dissipated in the air, so there should be no problem living here. So Zhang Feng carefully put his things in the hidden place of this house, and then went out again, wanting to know more carefully about the situation in this town.
But as soon as he walked out of the house, Zhang Feng heard a very subtle sound coming from inside the house, as if someone had entered, if it was an ordinary person, he would definitely not be able to hear such a subtle sound, but Zhang Feng had amazing hearing after all, so he found it as soon as possible, and immediately walked back.
Zhang Feng's movements were very light, and after walking in, he found that there were three of them, who were actually rummaging through the cabinets here, as if they were looking for something, Zhang Feng was so smart, he walked on his front foot, and these people went in on the back foot, obviously, they wanted to steal their own things.
Zhang Feng was a little angry in his heart, but his attitude towards these people was quite gentle: "What are you doing, what are you looking for? Do you want to steal my things? Leave me immediately!"
Hearing this, those people suddenly showed a look of righteousness, and one of the tallest and strongest people said with a smile: "Brother, what are you doing here, this house is originally a deserted ownerless thing, anyone in this town can come in, why did it become yours again, and you want us to leave, you are unreasonable!"
Zhang Feng listened but was too lazy to talk to these scumbags, after all, this house was indeed not his, so he walked to the position where he hid things before, took out the things he hid here one by one, and then was about to leave, but at this moment, the two people next to the tall man rushed to the door at once, and blocked the door with their hands on their waists.
Seeing this, Zhang Feng frowned slightly, he just came to this town, he was not familiar with the place, and it was not good for others to know what he was doing, so he didn't want to offend these guys.
To tell the truth, if it were somewhere else, Zhang Feng would definitely be able to subdue these guys in ten seconds, but after all, he didn't want to be publicized now, so he finally held back, pressed the fire and said: "You guys, what are you doing, in broad daylight, stealing or not, after I found out, do you want to rob my things?"
Hearing this, the tall man smiled, and then said with a smile: "Brother, what are you doing so angry, let me tell you, this house has actually been lived in by our three brothers all along, and the bag of things you took just now is also ours, and now that you have taken our things, we naturally have to ask, hand over the things to us, forget about this matter, otherwise if you provoke me later, not only will you rob the things, but also beat you up, what to do, you think about it yourself!"
Zhang Feng immediately became angry: "Why are you so shameless, okay, I don't want to entangle with you, so I'll give you some money and leave quickly!"
Saying that, Zhang Feng took out two hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it out, but the three of them saw Zhang Feng take out two hundred yuan and their eyes immediately straightened, after all, they lived in such a backward and remote place, so the purchasing power of currency was very amazing.
Two hundred yuan is already a lot of money for the three people in front of him, but since he saw Zhang Feng take out two hundred yuan at will, it is obvious that Zhang Feng must have more money on his body, thinking of this, the three brothers exchanged glances, and immediately understood what the other party was thinking, and then the tall man spoke again.
"Brother, what do you mean by this, you stole what we put in the house, and now you take out two hundred yuan, and you want to take our things away, let me tell you, our three brothers are not such greedy people, we don't want money, but I want my things!" The tall man said it was reasonable, and Zhang Feng was immediately angry.
"I've never seen such a shameless person, what is going on in this matter, you yourself know in your hearts, there are no outsiders here, don't pretend, what is going on, you can tell it clearly!" Zhang Feng was completely angry and ready to do it.
