8. The guest house in Luhua Town

There was nothing to say that night.

After Zhu Lingyi, Abu, Qian Duoduo, and Bai Yu settled down in the hotel to rest, they set off at 7 o'clock in the morning as planned the next day.

However, there is still some distance from Chengdu to Karon Town in Heishui County, and it is impossible to get there that day, Karon Town is a small town located deep in the mountains, and it is really unsafe to drive at night in such a sparsely populated mountain.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, when the sky was dark, the four of them happened to drive to Luhua Town in Heishui County, and they were ready to find a place to rest for the night.

Heishui County is located in the northern mountains of Sichuan, and Heishui is a paraphrase of the Tibetan word "cuoqu".

"Cuo" refers to pig iron, "Qu" means water, that is, the meaning of pig iron-colored water, there is a main river in Heishui County, the water is pig iron, so it is transliterated from this Tibetan for the name of the county.

Luhua Town and Karon Town are both towns under the jurisdiction of Heishui County, and Luhua Town is also the county seat of Heishui County.

And Zhu Lingyi and the Kalong Town they are going to, although it is also a town-level unit in Heishui County, it is actually a Kalong Village with a population of more than 1,000 people.

It was only in order to manage some small villages in the surrounding mountainous areas that Heishui County specifically promoted Karon Village to the town level and became Karon Town.

Therefore, only Luhua Town is the only town in Heishui County, and it is also a relatively populated area in Heishui County.

However, Heishui County is really a poor county in Sichuan, so Luhua Town, where the county government is located, has not developed much, and there is no formal hotel in the town, only a small guest house next to the county government.

It is also for leaders from above and tourists who travel by car on weekdays.

The guest house is still a three-story brick building from the 60s and 70s, and the exterior and interior are painted with white plaster, which looks fairly clean.

The first floor also serves as a restaurant for hospitality in the town, where you can stir-fry and eat, and there are some chickens and ducks in the backyard.

There are only five rooms on each floor of the second and third floors of the entire guest house, and most of the rooms in the guest house are already occupied.

Modern people can figure it out and prefer self-driving tourism, especially this kind of place that is full of pristine ecology and has not yet been developed into a place full of copper smell, and is regarded as undeveloped virgin land by tourists.

Therefore, Zhu Lingyi and the four of them can be regarded as a coincidence, there are only two empty rooms on the second floor left in the guest house, if there are more, they really can't find a room.

Zhu Lingyi and the four of them parked their cars in the courtyard outside the guest house, and asked for two rooms, and the three men shared one room, giving Bai Yu a separate room.

But the room was not bad, with a separate bathroom and hot water for bathing.

The two rooms were also door-to-door, but the four of them had just put their luggage in their respective rooms, when suddenly someone came and knocked on the door.

Qian Duoduo went to open the door and saw that it was a man in his forties, and his temperament was official, and this kind of smell could be seen at a glance, and there were some people in his eyes, but he was a little cautious.

The man who accompanied the laughter was the contractor of the guest house, who should be a relative of the leader of the county government next to him.

When the man saw Qian Duoduo open the door, he opened his mouth and smiled, and said enthusiastically, "Haha, a few comrades are comrades reporters from Kyoto, I am the director of the office of Heishui County, and your surname is Meng, Meng Tongji." Hello, hello! ”

After the man finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and enthusiastically shook Qian Duoduo, obviously the county government specially came forward to receive people, and he was very sophisticated in dealing with people and things.

"Oh, Director Meng, hello, hello, don't have your surname Qian, you can call me Xiao Qian, we are reporters from Kyoto X News, I heard that this time, someone in a village and town below your Heishui County has disappeared, and the president of our newspaper sent us over to understand the situation and prepare to make a special report."

Qian Duoduo casually said the words that had already been made, and shook hands with Director Meng warmly.

Both of them were very welcoming, as if they had been friends who had not seen each other for many years.

In fact, Qian Duoduo's words are not wrong, if the county calls to the headquarters of the Kyoto Newspaper, he can really find the information of the four of them, and the interview arrangements sent to Heishui County.

In these days and ages, reporters are also great figures, and they can't be offended.

Otherwise, if you casually change the meaning in the newspaper at that time, the meaning may fall from the sky to the ground, not to mention the leaders of this small county or province, if they are targeted by reporters, they will be able to catch a few traces of blood.

When Zhu Lingyi and the four of them registered, they used the identity of a reporter from Kyoto.

The guest house was originally hung with the name of Heishui County, and the registered waiter saw that it was a reporter from Kyoto, who dared to slack off, and was busy reporting to the boss.

Then the boss of this contract naturally did not dare to slack off, and personally went to the county government to find Meng Tongji, the office director on duty.

When Director Meng heard that it was a reporter from Kyoto who came to this small county, his heart immediately chuckled, thinking of what happened in Karon Town more than a month ago.

To this day, the families of those missing people in Karon Town often come to the county to make trouble.

The county used the excuse to push the matter to the autonomous prefecture, but if it was not handled well, I was afraid that Heishui Town would still be turned upside down.

So there is the current scene.

"Oh, this incident, alas, this incident is really nerve-wracking, and it is also our work negligence, which actually caused such a thing. Well, things can be understood slowly, so a few reporters from Kyoto have just arrived in our Heishui, and they have worked hard and haven't eaten yet, right? Let's go, let's go down for a light meal, a few reporters are also from big cities, I don't know the hardships of a small place like ours! ”

Meng Tongji had already made preparations for the reception, so before he came up and knocked on the door, he ordered the subordinates to start preparing and killing chickens and ducks.

Qian Duoduo is also accustomed to this kind of hospitality with Chinese characteristics, and when he used to go to other places for adventure travel, he did not play a little under the guise of some identity, anyway, like this kind of waste, he went more in China, and he was not more than one or two.

However, this time, Qian Duoduo still looked back at Zhu Lingyi and Abu first, and saw that the two of them had no opinion, so he accepted it with a smile.

Then Zhu Lingyi asked Qian Duoduo to knock on Bai Yu's door opposite, and under the leadership of Meng Tongji and the owner of the guest house, he went to the first floor and sat down in a private room.

By this time, some cold dish platters had come up on the table.

The owner of the guest house also sat down at the table with him, and called a few bottles of Moutai, which can be regarded as the standard for receiving provincial leaders, but now it is not said that the reporter is the biggest, and this standard is not exaggerated.

After three rounds of wine and half full of food, after a period of indiscriminate praise, he talked about the so-called topic according to the habits of the Chinese people.

It was still Director Meng from Heishui County who opened his mouth first, and through the emotional exchange at the previous banquet, the names of several people had already become like close friends who had known each other for many years......
