Next, they prepared to enter the ancient village and carefully inspect the situation of the Zhangjialou. But at this juncture, all the oxygen cylinders were depleted and had to be replaced.
Coincidentally, on the last day of diving, when I was about to go ashore and return, something happened to the lake.
They were still in the middle of the lake, and as soon as they came up, the fat man called out, wiped his face, and pointed to the shore.
Wu Xie looked towards the shore and found that not only the clouds were them, but there were also many people, who were actually setting up tents.
"What's going on?" The fat man wondered, "This has become a tourist attraction?" Why are you here again? ”
Wu Xie took a few breaths, observed carefully, and found that many of the people who came were villagers from the village, and Yun Cai was chatting with them, and some of them were dressed very urbanly and did not know where they came from. More people were coming down from the path from which they had come, leading many mules, all wrapped in them.
Wu Xie didn't know any of these people, so it was probably not that the second uncle was back again.
Mengli and Aning on the shore beckoned to them, as if to make them faster.
When they swam back to shore, Wu Xie felt that things were a little strange, because those people were carrying a lot of mules, big bags and many things.
Several large tents had been erected, and the rocky beach was busy, and a few people only looked at it with a little surprise, and no one knew too much about these few people coming out of the water.
They didn't know how to react at all, and when they walked to the side of Yun Cai and Ah Gui, Wu Xie suddenly saw a person, the guy with a full Beijing accent and a short figure who met at Daddy Panma's house, was shouting at the villagers who were porters to do this and that, with a high-flying and domineering look.
He has seen a lot of this kind of person on the road, and when he remembered what he heard at the time, he should have come here with a Beijing boss, so these people may have been brought by the Beijing boss.
Could it be that they also asked the story of Daddy Panma, and are going to come here to find something? There are too many people!
When he saw them, he could be regarded as having met them, and he greeted them.
Wu Xie didn't bother to think about it, returned the salute, passed by him, returned to their tent, and asked, "What's going on?" ”
"There's a big boss who hired them to move things here, and the specifics aren't clear." A-Ning replied, but among these people who came, there were people she knew, she was a little suspicious, but Mengli had already given her a positive answer, it was that person.
This situation is more embarrassing, Wu Xie doesn't want things to develop like this, but this lake is public, and you can't say that you won't let others come. The target of this group of people is that kind of piece, and he doesn't know if they know the truth about the piece of iron, or if it's just for salvation, and he can't do anything about it.
There was a steady stream of them, six or seven tents were erected, and all of them had a Beijing accent, which made Wu Xie feel like he had come to the shore of Houhai in a trance.
Wu Xie sat down and watched them do things vigilantly while resting.
Wu Xie saw a bunch of professional diving equipment, it is estimated that they also knew the origin of the piece of iron of the horse, and they were also very interested in it, so they came here to explore and explore, and the number of people and tents is also increasing, it seems that this boss is not only very rich, but also has a lot of face.
"People come prepared." The fat man snorted, "They know there's something underneath the water. ”
Wu Xie turned his mind for a moment and said to the fat man: "Could it be that there is some old scoop in Beijing who has come here to shop for goods?" Do you know those people? ”
The fat man said: "There are many brokers in Beijing, and few of them in Panjiayuan are personally on the ground, so I don't think it's very likely." These people won't be from Sijiu City, I think they may be people we don't know. In recent years, there have been new forces everywhere. ”
"You are well-connected in Beijing, you see, do you know one or two?" Wu Xie asked again.
The fat man shook his head, "I don't see any of them with hot faces, you let me take a closer look, but these people's Beijing accents are a bit weird." Wait, you'll ask you and see if I can find out who their boss is. ”
The fat man walked towards the busy camp and greeted one of the men in Pekingese, but the man ignored him. What kind of character is Fatty? Immediately followed, and they walked away.
"Well, Mengli, do you know any of them?" Wu Xie suddenly remembered that there was a young master of the Liuli Pavilion next to him, and he must know many people.
Mengli looked at the group of people and nodded: "Yes." Jude Kao's people. ”
"Jude Kao? Where do you seem to have heard of it? Wu Xie was thinking about it, and suddenly the little brother behind him pinched his shoulder, and heard him say softly: "Look." ”
Wu Xie turned his attention back to the camp, wanting to see if there was anything unusual there, but he found that there was another group of people in the forest on the other side, and one of them was helped down from the mule. The five short-stature ones quickly greeted them.
When I looked closely, I found that the man was a little old with a bow and arrow, and when he came down, he staggered and staggered, and he couldn't even straighten his waist. He was surrounded by several retinues, coming back and forth towards them.
Is this the boss behind it? Wu Xie wanted to go over, turned his head to look, and found that the little brother, Mengli and A Ning were short behind him, staring straight at the comer, and the little brother said to him: "Don't let them see us." ”
"Why?" Wu Xie looked at them strangely and asked.
"He's my boss." A-Ning looked at that person with a complicated expression on his face that could not be seen.
Wu Xie was stunned for a moment, "This old man is Jude Kao?!" Then he almost jumped. These people are also the team of Aning Company, and this old man actually went out in person.
For a while, Wu Xie didn't know how to react.
Jude Cow had a predetermined image in his mind, both certain and uncertain, a missionary with the face of Sven Heding, but somewhat like the great liar of Marco Polo. And in the stories that his grandfather told him, Jude Coe was the worst of the villains, and he used to imagine him as a monster with a big head and a wolf face. I really didn't expect that he himself would describe an old man with a dry manuscript like this.
This kind of prediction made Wu Xie feel very strange and unreal. Grandpa's story is the equivalent of a fairy tale book when he was a child, and now, the characters of the fairy tale book suddenly walked out of his grandfather's notebook, and for a while, he felt very confused.
What is he here for? If you look at this formation, you will know what is going on under the lake. After the snake swamp, he, like them, did not give up the pursuit, and also chased here?
However, the direction of their investigation is completely arbitrary, and they do not have the same foundation between them, how can they come together? Are they following all the time?
The presence of this old man here in person must be no small thing. His age is not suitable for long-distance travel, and this appearance must be a desperate gamble.
What's down there?
On second thought, the current situation is troublesome, and the relationship between them is too complicated. Wu Xie's grandfather and Jude Kao are feuding, although Wu Xie doesn't have any thoughts of revenge now, but this relationship makes it impossible for him to have any good feelings for them. And the grievances between the third uncle and Jude Kao are even more untidy and messy.
Even if there is no hostility between the two parties, there is a strong competitive relationship, and when the enemy is strong and we are weak, we have to think carefully about how to deal with the relationship.
Gotta take one step at a time.
Wu Xie suppressed the heartbeat of the burr, and remembered one more thing - didn't the little brother have amnesia? How did you know Jude Kaw? And what is he hiding? And why is Mengli hiding?
"It makes sense for A-Ning to hide, but, little brother, Mengli, what are you hiding?" Wu Xie asked.
Mengli said: "I have cheated him. "Don't be afraid, but hide too.
The corners of Wu Xie's mouth twitched slightly, especially Ah Ning, who was looking at it, nodded affirmatively.
The little brother looked in the direction of the tent and replied, "I saw him once when I was in the hospital. ”
"Hospital? Is it Beijing or Golmud? ”
They had been picked up from Qaidam by Jude Kao's men, but they don't remember meeting him, and he must have been hit harder than they did.
"Beijing." He replied, "Just last month." ”
"What is he looking for you?" Wu Xie asked, "Why didn't you tell me?" Top dog. ”
Top dog? Mengli really served Wu Xie.
He didn't answer, flashing back behind him.
Looking back, Jude Kaw was helped out of the tent, looked around, put on his hat, and walked towards the shade of the tree on one side.
"What are you hiding?" Wu Xie asked again, "What if he sees it?" Maybe he already knew you were here. ”
The little brother shook his head and said to him: "We can't let them take the lead, we must weigh their time." ”
"What do you want to do?"
The little brother pointed to the diving equipment piled up on the side, "Let's go grab scuba." ”
