Chapter 338: Sophistry
"No one came? How can it be? Director Ji Wei: They are clearly here in your village with people! A young man in a striped T-shirt became anxious when he heard the villagers say that there were no outsiders in this village.
"We are a small family in this small village, and we don't have any good scenery, how can you come to us to film, you must be mistaken." A middle-aged man with a straw hat and dark skin bared his yellow teeth and said timidly.
"I received a call to the police, it was your village, it was said that the situation was urgent at that time, but according to your current statement, someone is joking with us?" At this time, a man in a police uniform asked in a cautious tone after looking at a few villagers standing at the entrance of the village.
"Call the police? Report or call the police? Did something happen? When the villagers heard the police's question, they were anxious to ask, and their words were stumbling.
"It's your people here who smashed their stuff and hurt people." When the policeman said this, he glanced at the villagers with a flat look, but when he saw them all looking at them vigilantly, he was a little puzzled in his heart.
"How is it possible, let's not talk about whether we have such a group of people here, even if we come, you see that we are all local villagers with little knowledge, how can we still have conflicts with them?" At this time, another tall, thin man with bulging cheekbones came up.
It's just that when this man came up, Bai Zhe saw an eleven or twelve-year-old child not far away, at the signal of a middle-aged woman, and suddenly got into a forest next to him.
Two days ago, he had a brief phone call with Xia Qian, but because her signal was not particularly good at that time, the two didn't say much, but he still knew her specific location from the network positioning, so he came here straight after finishing his own business.
It's just that to his surprise, he hasn't been able to contact Xia Qian and them since yesterday morning, if the signal in one place is not good, then it can't be that there is no signal in all places, right?
He kept trying to get in touch, but he didn't succeed once, and when he couldn't contact Xia Qian, he tried to contact Ah Mi and the director and producer of the crew, but the result was still no news.
At this point, he also realized a little strange, so he hurried to the originally scheduled set, but on the way he met a team of police, after a simple exchange, he knew that he and they were the same destination, but it was precisely because he knew the purpose of the police going to the set that Bai Zhe's heart became even more uneasy.
However, what they did not expect was that when they came to this village yesterday, they encountered an afternoon of mountain rain, which rained for seven or eight hours, and their footsteps were interrupted on the side of the mountain pass, and it was not until the middle of the night that the rain subsided.
But it was precisely because the night was deep, and everyone was in a place where there was no shop in front of the village and no store in the back, and they did not dare to walk between the mountain roads in bad conditions, so they stopped and rested until the morning, and only then did they rush to the village together when the sky was still bright.
I don't want to be blocked at the entrance of the village by a group of villagers before they can enter the village, although they quibble that there is no crew here, but their demeanor and tone betray them every minute, and it is precisely because of this that Bai Zhe is more and more worried about the safety of Xia Qian.
Although today's society is generally civilized and stable, he has also heard that some remote local folk customs are not so civilized, and in the face of such a group of people, the law cannot restrain them at all.
There have been reports that a group of young people went to remote mountainous areas to collect style, but more than a dozen people came, but in the end none of them went back, and there were also relevant departments to investigate at that time, but the result was that these people really 'disappeared' in this world.
There is speculation in the society, saying that these people may have died in the mountains, some people say that they saw through the red dust and returned to the mountains and forests together, of course, some people say that they were kidnapped by the locals, etc., but most of these statements are also self-comforting or irrelevant ridicule, as a pastime after tea and dinner.
But since there are some such statements and speculations, of course, it is impossible to say that such a situation does not exist, otherwise why would all those people disappear?
Of course, in Bai Zhe's view, he would never believe that Xia Qian would see through Hongchen, and he didn't quite believe that he was kidnapped and killed, after all, as far as Xia Qian's strength was concerned, others didn't know, but he still knew it.
Bai Zhe's movements were very light, and at this time, the eyes of those people at the entrance of the village were attracted by the police, so his departure did not attract the attention of others.
And he had been in the army and had learned a lot about the skills of hiding in the jungle, so now that he had not entered the forest, he quickly caught up with the previous child, and the child was impossible to find him because of the cliff.
The child was born and raised in the village, and he has no hobbies on weekdays, so he is left to play hide and seek in the forest with his friends, so he is quite familiar with the terrain of the forest, so the speed of running is also fast.
Bai Zhe was some distance away from him, but soon he discovered a strange place, that is, although the figure of the child was within his control and would not be lost, but many times, he would always see the child's back suddenly disappear in the blink of an eye.
It really disappeared suddenly, but after a while, he would see his back appear in another unlikely place, and after appearing three times like this, the doubts in Bai Zhe's heart became heavier and heavier.
He didn't know how to explain the situation, but it was because of this that he became more cautious, the village was too strange for him not to pay attention to.
However, just as the child's figure disappeared again, and suddenly appeared again after a while, Bai Zhe seemed to have figured out such a rule, and made a simple summary, and then according to the trajectory of the child's movement, he soon changed his steps.
After experimenting like this two or three times, Bai Zhe was surprised to find that the number of times the child disappeared was getting less and less, and the time of disappearance was getting shorter and shorter, until the child he followed came out of the forest, and he quickly found the trick.
In this regard, he suddenly thought of some things that he had seen on Zhou Yi before, it is said that the five-star gossip of Huaguo, Qimen Dunjia is something that does exist, and there is no shortage of such examples in history.
At that time, he didn't think it was useful, and he didn't think it had much to do with him, so he didn't remember much, but now in this situation, he couldn't help but think of what was recorded in the book, how similar it was? (To be continued.) )
