30. Dying
In the whole of Sichuan Province, Shennong Group has only 11 agricultural technical guidance stations, 5 permanent purchasing stations, a material transfer and personnel reception office, a fresh-keeping and packaging factory, plus a Sichuan provincial office in Chengdu, with a total of less than 200 employees, and there is no one like him who can do some temporary investigation work. After separating from Zuo Lin, the first thing Xu Weidong did was to contact the local gang in Dujiangyan City. He had planned to buy some weapons from the local gangs, but now the need for weapons was less urgent than the need for intelligence.
As a regional purchasing manager, Chen Jianzong has a procurement quota of less than 200 million yuan per year, so he doesn't have to run around, he can sit in the office and sign and drink tea. But looking for new varieties and specialties everywhere has become a hobby of this also a veteran traveler. In the past few years, Chen Jianzong's purchase amount has really revitalized some rather impoverished villages, and many families have been lifted out of poverty and become rich. In Sichuan, Chen Jianzong is a well-known "good man". Many young children of gangs come from farming families, and they are not unfamiliar with the name Chen Jianzong, and there are a few who have dealt with him, and these people have become the lubricant for Xu Weidong to deal with the gang. It didn't take much to say anything, and in the evening of the same day, Xu Weidong learned that in the past few days, there was indeed a group of outsiders "crossing the border". But they have guns, they are well equipped, and they have paid enough tolls according to the rules, so there is no reason to trouble them. Of course, if Xu Weidong goes to trouble them, these gangs will also pretend not to see it.
Xu Weidong knows his catties very well, he bought a pistol and 100 rounds of ammunition to defend himself, and he will never be arrogant enough to think that he can fight with the other party with this. All he had to do was gather further information. There are indeed people in Dujiangyan City who have stayed behind to pick up the smugglers, who have been buying all kinds of things one after another in the past few days, but there has been no further action.
After Xu Weidong learned that the other party was in a place called Haixing Guest House near the train station, he set off with some preparations. After a little observation, it was found that the smugglers were not only in the Haixing Guest House, but had chartered the entire guest house. Although there are still some individual individual guests, it is estimated that it is a cover-up. In the courtyard of the guest house, two large box trains and a container truck are parked. I didn't see much of the acquisition and transportation, and judging from the smug look of the other party, I guess I was well prepared.
Xu Weidong didn't dare to get too close, but he had a way to see and hear. Opposite the guest house, there is a 6-storey old mansion. Xu Weidong gave a middle-aged man who lived alone on the 6th floor 5,000 yuan and sent him on the train to travel. In the room, Xu Weidong set up a telescope and listening instruments, and he could barely make observations. It's said to be a monitor, but it's actually just a high-directional microphone with a reflector that is usually used to collect birdsong, and almost all private detectives use this kind of thing, although the noise is relatively loud, but it can be used improvised.
In the middle of the night, only a few rooms in the guest house were still lit, and the monitors couldn't make sound from the empty courtyard and balcony, and the headphones were just sizzling. However, Xu Weidong can still clearly perceive the other party's caution. Although it was night, there were still people in the cars parked in the yard who were on duty.
Xu Weidong stayed up late to observe, and at the same time actively contacted the Shanghai side. When he learned that the bodyguards around Yan Hokusai were smaller and the security bureau, and the people from the Ministry of Public Security would arrive one after another in a few hours, Xu Weidong was also relieved.
With regard to the smuggling of wild animals, there is no special department in China, the Forestry Bureau does not have the ability to detect such crimes, the Ministry of Public Security does not have experts who are proficient in wild animals, and since a Taiwanese who is supposed to be in prison is also involved, the national security side also has to come forward. Since Yan Hokusai was the first to provide information, Xiao Xiao, this guy who originally retired from the public security system, appeared on this list on behalf of Yan Hokusai.
Xu Weidong's eyes were red, and he hadn't rested since the night when Yan Hokusai called him to get ready to greet Zuo Lin. And the news of the upcoming backup supports him to continue to observe and monitor, anyway, he will come to the top shift when he arrives.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, there was activity in the guest house, running around to eat breakfast, washing clothes, shouting and moving the body, replacing those who were on duty in the car for the night appeared, and it only took ten minutes for the monitoring headphones to change from sizzling noise to constantly having all kinds of human voices.
From these conversations, he couldn't hear anything for a while, but vaguely felt that although the other party maintained stability on the surface, there seemed to be some nervousness and panic inside.
Before 9 o'clock, Xiao called Xu Weidong, and their party had already arrived in Chengdu and would arrive soon. Due to the vagueness of the previous words, it was not until this time that Xu Weidong and Zuo Lin acted separately. Xiao Xiao hurriedly reported to Yanbei.
However, there was more surprise than worry in his tone, and Xu Weidong wondered even more, could it be that this Zuo Lin, this very good goalkeeper, is really capable of playing?
Zuo Lin is not very good at tracking, especially since it is really difficult for him to trace the tracks of a few days ago. After using the spell to communicate with nature several times in a row, he already felt a little tired. It is true that this spell consumes very little force of nature, and the greater fatigue comes from the process of listening. All things have animism, but animals and plants do not have human language after all, and they do not have the intelligence that can organize language, and it is easy to get burnout of the spirit by sorting out useful information from countless instinctive responses.
He followed the waterway all the way to an observation post in the mountains not far from Gengda Bridge. The observation post is a simple two-room bungalow, and the size of the room is not large. Only one dirt path connects to the road outside. Jeeps with good off-road performance barely managed to get to the edge of the observation post in good weather.
Observe all two men and blatantly pin the pistol behind their waists. At first glance, I knew that it was definitely not a forest ranger or something. Zuo Lin did not rush to act, but quietly approached the observation post, climbed a large tree, and controlled the big tree to hang down a soft branch, and landed on the roof like a spider. In one room, the two guys who were here were bored, and they walked in and out from time to time, looking impatient. In another room, Zuo Lin heard an extremely faint breathing sound.
At this frequency, this depth of breathing can only occur in an extremely weak person. Zuo Lin no longer hesitated, he turned over and jumped into the room, and with a wave of his hand, a dagger passed through the throat of a guy and nailed it to the wall. Almost at the same time, Zuo Lin drew the bow stuck in his backpack, and the bowstring went around the neck of the other guy, and with a twist of his wrist, the bowstring twisted around the guy's neck. Considering that he wanted to keep a living mouth, Zuo Lin didn't rush to exert his strength, he said softly: "Don't move, otherwise you will die an ugly death." ”
The guy immediately stopped moving. Zuo Lin pulled his pistol from behind his back and threw it far away. Commanded: "Walk slowly, and open the door to the next room." ”
The poor creature opened the door and immediately got a hard blow on the back of the head and fainted. Zuo Lin only saw from the movie that this method should be able to cause people to fall unconscious, and he had never practiced it himself, and the force was a little too strong, and a hole was made in the back of the poor guy's head, but the goal of stuning was still completed.
There was a faint smell of blood in the room, and Zuo Lin hurriedly pushed open the door. In the middle of the clutter piled up in the room, there was a slightly fat body lying on the ground, scarred on his body, looking at the face of this person, it was indeed Chen Jianzong.
Zuo Lin hurriedly helped Chen Jianzong up, took out the external wound medicine originally prepared from his pocket and sprinkled it on Chen Jianzong, his right hand was attached to Chen Jianzong's vest, and a pure and soft force of nature was sent into his body, which immediately stimulated the vitality in Chen Jianzong's body. The active ingredients contained in the medicine were quickly absorbed into the skin, and in less than 2 minutes, Chen Jianzong's breathing was deeper and longer. Basically, Chen Jianzong's injuries were stabilized.
At this time, Chen Jianzong's body was relying on the power of nature to fuse medicinal power to repair the body, and he couldn't wake him up quickly, otherwise, if such a process was not over, the treatment effect would be greatly reduced. And since Chen Jianzong has been rescued, there is no need to worry about other things.
After tying the poor fellow, who was still fainting, to the storage shelves in the room, Zuo Lin took out the small clay pot and the alcohol stove, walked around the forest a little, collected some mushrooms and a few plant roots, washed them a little, and stewed them together. It's been almost a whole day since he got off the plane, and he hasn't eaten much, and now, having completed the scheduled task, it's time to rest and adjust.
Chen Jianzong did not wake up leisurely until noon. He opened his eyes, and although he found that he was still lying on the ground, the rope on his body was missing, and the clutter piled up around him had also been pushed to a corner of the room, leaving enough room to spare. Near the door, a young man was eating with a small jar, and his laid-back demeanor almost made it seem like he was having a normal picnic.
“…… Ahem," Chen Jianzong wanted to straighten up, and as soon as he breathed heavily, he immediately choked on the bloodshot in his trachea and coughed loudly.
"You're awake. The young man did not come up to help him, but allowed him to sit up against the wall
"Are you...... Zuo Lin?" Chen Jianzong was surprised, "Why are you here?"
"Huh, you know me?......" Zuo Lin raised his head and looked at Chen Jianzong and said.
“…… It's your fans. …… Why are you here, what's wrong here?" Chen Jianzong said weakly.
Zuo Lin took out a piece of chocolate from his backpack, threw it to Chen Jianzong, and said, "Old Yan asked me to come to you." ”
Chen Jianzong showed a happy look on his face: "Did the photo have you received?"
"Not yet, I'm in a hurry, I haven't had time to do anything else except save you. …… How did you send those pictures when you're here?"
Chen Jianzong smiled and said, "I met a friend and stuffed a note into his pocket." I used to meet when we climbed Siguniang Mountain together. …… I'm fine, I didn't expect Yan Lao to let you come, you should be a very capable person?......, right? So, the youkai cultivated to a human form? Isn't it?...... Aliens? It's not like ......."
Perhaps because he was too excited after being rescued, Chen Jianzong began to run with his mouth full. Zuo Lin frowned and said, "You have a good rest, I'll send you back to Yingxiu to settle down first." Don't talk too much, you're too weak now, saving more physical strength is a point. ”
Chen Jianzong took a big bite of chocolate and said, "It's too late, anyway, you are a very capable person, you must stop them." Chen Jianzong's expression was extremely serious, "When you get here, you should know what they want to get, right?"
Zuo Lin thought for a moment, and suddenly thought that this was almost the scope of the Wolong Nature Reserve, and the name of a species immediately jumped out, "Panda?
Chen Jianzong leaned against the wall and said, "I don't know." One of them accidentally said it when I was beaten. If it weren't for the father of one of the children in it being my old relative, I guess I would be a corpse by now. …… Leave me alone, it's important to stop them first. This is a panda, don't let them make it and I'll not be beaten for nothing. ”
Zuo Lin nodded and said, "I'll set off now." He took out his mobile phone from his pocket, handed it to Chen Jianzong, and said, "You call Yan Lao, and he will arrange for someone to pick you up." …… To make a long story short, roaming charges are very expensive, and I haven't turned on the plane since it got off the ground. Zuo Lin was very reluctant, but he still needed the GPS and electronic map in Xu Weidong's PDA, so he could only dispose of it in this way.
Ignoring Chen Jianzong's expression of stammering and not knowing what to say, Zuo Lin took out a water bag, a sleeping bag, and a moisture-proof mat tent from his backpack and put it on the ground, and left Chen Jianzong a slinger to chat about as a comforting self-defense weapon, and then quickly set off. Although there is still a lack of tracking methods, now that you know the other party's goal, there are some ways to do it.
After seeing Zuo Lin leave, Chen Jianzong picked up his mobile phone with difficulty. Zuo Lin, a star who should be extremely wealthy, was so stingy, which was really unexpected to him. He dialed the phone, and the bell rang just once, and the phone was connected.
"Zuo Lin, what's going on?" Yan Hokusai's voice came from the phone.
"Old Yan, I'm Chen Jianzong......"
After explaining the cause and effect a little and explaining where he was, Chen Jianzong hung up the phone. Smuggling pandas, this kind of unbelievable thing is actually happening. The state is very strict in the management of the Wolong Nature Reserve, and all pandas have a strict registration system and radio tracking beacons, so how is the other party going to complete this almost impossible task? Thinking about it, Chen Jianzong fell asleep again. He was so weak.
