Chapter 782 - There Is a Labyrinth (Ask for Subscription)
Is there any special reason why it appears near the gate?
Normally, if you don't go out, it's impossible to wander back and forth in front of your house.
Thinking of this, Huo Zhongting went to look around again.
The gate installed at this chicken farm is no different from the gate of other people, it is the kind of painted iron gate used by ordinary people.
However, after a careful inspection, Huo Zhongting found that there was a piece of land near the gate that was different in color from other places.
In fact, the difference is not particularly obvious, if you don't look carefully, you can't tell the difference at all.
At the beginning, Huo Zhongting thought that the two pieces of land were different in color due to the problem of light.
When he changed several places and the results were the same, he was sure that it was not the light that was the problem, but the land.
Seeing this, Huo Zhongting immediately asked people to go forward to check the situation.
The final result showed that there was something wrong with the area, and that the top layer was not the so-called sand at all, but a layer of sand-like stuff similar to the color of the surrounding land.
After lifting the thing, a downward underground tunnel was placed in front of everyone.
Seeing this, everyone finally knew how the people on the chicken farm disappeared.
I have to say that these people are very smart, because the area around the gate is the most likely place to be overlooked, and it is precisely because of this that when the previous search was carried out, nothing was found.
"Head, I want to take someone down there to see what's going on down there."
Hearing Jin Zhuo say this, Huo Zhongting thought for a while and then said, "It's still unclear what the situation is below, pay attention to safety when you go down." ”
Seeing that his head said this, Jin Zhuo nodded.
In order to prevent any accidents below, Jin Zhuo and his party were all equipped with weapons when they went down.
I thought that after going down, I would find their base camp, but it turned out that they still thought too well.
There was a large labyrinth underneath, and Jin Zhuo and the others had been wandering underground for almost two hours before they found their way back.
After listening to Jin Zhuo's report, Huo Zhongting was also quite surprised, "How big do you estimate to be underground?" ”
Huo Zhongting's words made Jin Zhuo hesitate, and after a while, he said, "Head, to be honest, I don't know how big it is, because I don't even know which road I walked in the end, and which road I didn't walk." ”
Seeing Jin Zhuo's face collapse, Huo Zhongting didn't embarrass him, but sent someone to let them go to the other two chicken farms to see if their situation was the same as here.
In fact, it's really about the same, the two chicken farms are also labyrinths underneath, and it's hard to say whether the three chicken farms are connected to each other, after all, it can't be proved that they are interconnected, but one thing is for sure, the people in the chicken farm must have left through these secret passages.
In order to determine whether the three chicken farms were connected, Huo Zhongting sent three more groups of people down, but this time it was different from the last time, they brought special equipment to prevent them from getting lost underground.
After almost three hours, someone finally returned.
"Well, we've found another exit, but not any of the three chicken farms, but in a dry well that hasn't been used for a long time."
Hearing his subordinates say this, Huo Zhongting immediately said, "Take me to have a look." ”
Seeing Huo Zhongting say this, his subordinates hurriedly led him in front.
The dry well that the subordinate said was almost ten minutes away from the chicken farm where Huo Zhongting and they were before.
"Head, this is it."
To tell the truth, before he came, Huo Zhongting thought that this dry well was on the side of the road or in the ground, but after he came, he found out that this dry well was actually in someone's yard.
"What about the head of the household?"
Hearing what his head said, his subordinates said with a wry smile, "The head of the family is an alcoholic, he was drunk yesterday, and now he hasn't sobered up, I inquired with the neighbors around him, according to them, the head of the family has 365 days a year, and he can be drunk for 300 days, it is estimated that he just woke up, and we can't ask anything useful." ”
The subordinate's words made Huo Zhongting sneer, "I don't believe in this evil, go and ask someone to bring cold water to wake him up." ”
Hearing Huo Zhongting say this, his subordinates didn't dare to disobey, so they took people to carry out Huo Zhongting's orders.
For almost twenty minutes, the head of the household, whose face was covered with water, was brought to Huo Zhongting.
Before he saw Huo Zhongting, he was still scolding, but after seeing Huo Zhongting, he immediately became honest, and he didn't beat or scold people, and the whole person looked very pure.
Seeing him like this, the guards around him wondered if they were hallucinating just now.
"Any idea what we called you for here?"
Hearing Jin Zhuo ask, Yuan Qiang shook his head, "It's not very clear. ”
"Do you know that this dry well in your house leads to another place?"
Seeing that when Jin Zhuo said this, he looked at himself without blinking, Yuan Qiang thought for a while and then said, "I don't know." ”
"Isn't it clear? Then you are an unemployed vagrant, where does the money for your usual drinking come from? ”
Hearing Jin Zhuo ask, Yuan Qiang hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's my old book." ”
The other party's words made Jin Zhuo sneer, "Then you really have enough old books!" I haven't finished eating it for more than two years. ”
Jin Zhuo's words made Yuan Qiang very sneered.
"Are you going to tell me the truth now, or are you going to tell me the truth again after I find out the evidence! The nature of the two is different, the former can be lenient, as for the latter? It's a ten-year start, and you're a smart person who should know how to choose! ”
Hearing Jin Zhuo say this, Yuan Qiang thought for a while and then said, "I choose to tell the truth now, I don't know anything else, I only know that the well in my house leads to other places, as for where it leads, I don't know, because I have never gone down, and then in order to block my mouth, those people will give me a sum of money every month, and what I need to do is to keep a secret about their existence and the secret of this well." ”
"Has anyone ever come out of this well today?"
Hearing Jin Zhuo say this, Yuan Qiang shook his head, "I don't know, I'm drunk, sir, you should also know that if you hadn't woken me up just now, I might still be asleep." ”
"You said they would give you a sum of money every month, so who is the person who meets you every month?"
Hearing Jin Zhuo say this, Yuan Qiang recalled for a while before he said, "It's a bald head, and he looks a little fierce, in fact, I don't see him every month, sometimes, he will put the money in an envelope and put it on my pit." ”
"Do you know where he lives?"
Jin Zhuo's words made Yuan Qiang shake his head, "I don't know." ”
