Chapter 45: Meeting

It was getting late, and after a hurried meal, we went back to our tents to rest.

But for some reason, I couldn't sleep when I was lying in the open hood. After tossing and turning for a while, I finally fell asleep, but I was woken up by a noisy sound.

I sat up and looked around with confused eyes.

Strange, what was the sound just now?

I patted my head and made sure I didn't have a nightmare, so I took out my phone and opened it to see that it was only half past three. I vaguely remember that I came in at half past one......

Only slept for an hour? I smiled wryly, and just as I was about to lie down again, there was another cacophony outside......

I made sure the sound was coming from my left hand. To my left, not far away, is the black wolf's tent. Could it be that the black wolf is doing something?

Unable to suppress my curiosity, I slowly touched the entrance of the tent, opened the tent door a little, and quietly leaned out.

Unexpectedly, I happened to see a black shadow flash from the mouth of the black wolf's tent. Judging by the size of the figure, I recognized it as the Black Wolf himself.

It's just, it's so late, what is he going to do when he gets up? Toilet access?

I looked around for a while and saw that he didn't look like he was going to the bathroom. Because it's been so long, I haven't seen him come back.

Linked to the previous voice, I think it's more likely that he went out with tools. The previous chaotic sounds were made by him moving tools and looking for tools.

Thinking of this, I hurriedly stepped out of the tent, intending to follow him and see what he was going to do.

Fortunately, I came out early, and I had only walked a few steps before I saw him appear in front of me again. He didn't go to the bathroom, but walked straight ahead.

I followed as I watched the river flow next to me and deduced the route. Unexpectedly, after such a stunned effort, he disappeared......

I rubbed my eyes, I couldn't believe I had just lost them. Obviously, he was still in front just now, why did he disappear all of a sudden?

I had to speed up a few steps, walk to the last place I saw him, and stop.

There was only one road here, and unless he jumped into the river, it wouldn't have gone away. I walked to the edge of the river and looked down.

The black wolf, of course, is not below.

Then there was only one possibility, and I looked at the dense woods next to me. Boldly walked in.

But when I really went in completely, I began to regret it. What looks like a trace of someone walking inside? There were sticks all over me, in my face.

It didn't take long for me to feel a burning pain in my face. Needless to say, it was cut open by a branch. But I didn't plan to turn back and just walked on.

Fortunately, I was soon able to walk through this dense forest into an open area.

But...... I still haven't seen the black wolf here.

Is it really not here? I hesitated, contemplating whether to go back.

At this moment, not far away, a flute sounded.

When I heard the sound of the flute, I instantly came to my senses. Because it's exactly the same whistle I heard in my Beijing hotel!

Who would be playing the flute in the middle of the night in such a place?

I started to panic, and although I was a little scared, I walked in the direction where the flute was coming from.

It's closer, it's getting closer. I muttered silently, and my pace slowed.

Soon I came to another forest, from which the sound of the flute was heard.

I didn't rush in, but counted a few times before brushing aside the branches.

Suddenly, someone covered my mouth from behind.

Subconsciously, I kicked backwards, but the first time I kicked was empty.

I didn't give up, I kicked it a second time and struggled at the same time. But the other party doesn't seem to have any intention of letting go.

Just as I was about to struggle one last time, a familiar voice rang out: "It's me, don't move." ”

Ah Cheng? I was startled and immediately stopped.

At the same time, the hand that covered my mouth was lowered.

I immediately turned my head and saw Ah Cheng standing behind me dressed in black.

"Ah Cheng?" I was about to speak, but he stopped me.

"Shhhh

With that, he took me to the other side of the woods.

"This is it." He suddenly stopped and looked at the woods, "Don't ask too much yet, wait here for a while, you can see what you want to see in a while." ”

"What do you want to see?" I muttered, turned my head, and saw two people standing facing each other in the depths of the branches, in the faint light.

"Who are they?" I whispered to Ah Cheng, although I guessed that one of them was a black wolf, but who was the other?

"One is the person you just followed, and the other is the person I just tracked?" Ah Cheng explained succinctly.

"The person I'm following, black wolf? And then there's the guy you're stalking, no, how do you know I'm stalking someone?" I looked at him curiously.

Ah Cheng smiled: "Coincidentally, our camp is a little above your camp, and the man got up in the middle of the night and was heard by me, so he followed, but he happened to see you in front, so he ......"

"That's a coincidence...... I laughed with him, and the atmosphere instantly soothed.

"Well, I was the guide I told you about before I tracked you, Black Wolf, who are you tracking?"

"My boss seems to be a Japanese, and he speaks strangely." Ah Cheng said and turned to look at the forest again.

"Japanese?" I was stunned, "What does he look like?"

Ah Cheng was silent for a while, and then described: "Tall and thin, about 40 years old, papaya head, bald." ”

"How do you know he's Japanese, did he say it himself?" I asked.

"He made a phone call, and I heard it." Ah Cheng replied without raising his head, "Okay, they started to act." ”

"Huh?" I turned my head to look and realized that the sound of the flute had long since disappeared, and that the two people in the forest had begun to move.

"They're digging something, aren't they?" Ah Cheng suddenly asked, "It sounds like this is the sound of an electronic shovel." ”

"Are you pigs? This is obviously an electronic drill. ”

Suddenly, a voice sounded behind us.

"Li Jing?" I was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned my head away. just bumped into Li Jingzheng's smiling eyes.

"What's wrong? I'm not a ghost, do you have such a big reaction to see me? Li Jing snorted, "Insideβ€”"

"Shhhhh Ah Cheng shushed.

Li Jing was embarrassed all of a sudden, stunned in place and at a loss, after a while, she leaned into my ear and asked, "Okay, okay, who is inside, and, what's the situation here?" ”

"One of them is a black wolf and the other is Ah Cheng's employer. As for what's going on here, I don't know. I spread my hands helplessly.

"Okay, I know what they're up to." Ah Cheng stood up suddenly, "They are playing a robbery hole, and now the two of them have gone down." ”

"It's so late, digging holes?" I looked up at my moonshine watch. I brought this watch out this time, because I was afraid that there would be no sense of time when there was no light underground. But this moonlight watch is not the same as the ordinary one, and I heard the person who sold the watch say that it has a lot of functions.

But I don't have time to research it right now. After a hurried look at the time, I said, "It's four o'clock, and the sun should rise here around seven o'clock." For three hours, I'm afraid they weren't digging a hole to go to the grave, right? ”

"It's not easy, just go and see. Come, keep up with me. Li Jing waved her hand, raised her foot and wanted to walk inside. I was pulled by Ah Cheng and I at the same time.

"Don't go in, don't go in. Now is not the time, you don't know what's going on inside. Ah Cheng persuaded him.

"What can it do? Even if they found out, I would be able to get out of the way. Li Jing twisted her hand, "Let go of me, I'll take a look, damn it, you can't go back empty-handed when you call me." ”

"My little aunt and grandmother, I don't know where the people inside are coming from, so you rush in in and expose yourself? You're our last trump card. Ah Cheng continued to persuade half-jokingly.

"It's not you yet, let me wait on the periphery, and let me blow the mountain wind there all night, no, I saw you leave from afar, and I followed. I thought I could move my body, but I didn't expect you to squat here. Li Jing pouted impatiently.

"Now is not the time, don't worry, there will be a place for you to do it. Let's go back first, by the way, Sister Jing, you can come over these two during the day tomorrow to see what's going on below. ”

"Okay...... Then I'll retreat first......" Li Jing said, and he really left.

I was about to stop her and ask her something, but she disappeared into the forest in the blink of an eye.

"Ah Hao, by the way, I still have something to ask you, do you have any arrangements for tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow? Yes, there is not a single village under the surface of the water near this river, what is it called Executioner, and tomorrow Abe's old thing will let us go down with the black wolf to find a marker......"

Ah Cheng nodded while listening, and after I finished speaking, he replied directly: "That person told me that there is an underwater cemetery near here, let me follow him down to the river tomorrow, and after digging something, he will give me half of it." Look at this ......."

"Shhh...... They're not looking for the same thing. I muttered, narrowing my eyes, recalling Ah Cheng's description of his employer. Suddenly, I froze, and my eyes widened.

"What? What do you think of? ”

"Is your employer really Japanese? Did he bring a particularly large gourd?" I asked anxiously.

"I said I was just guessing he was Japanese, but he didn't have a similar accent, and I didn't see him bring any gourds." Ah Cheng shook his head.

"Anyway, tomorrow you try to take a picture of him, I'll take a look. Also, it's a bit strange here, you try to be careful. ”

"Got it, so are you. By the way, I'll tell you tomorrow if there's any news. ”

"Row ......"
