Chapter 117: Strange Clues

Strange clues become mysteries

Peel back the cocoon and solve the mystery

Although Zhang Chengyong and I have both watched this video before, most of us fast-forwarded to the back position, and we didn't notice the woman on the screen.

At this time, seeing Shi Xueqing's surprised expression, the two of us couldn't help but be surprised, because the more the woman in the picture looked, the more she looked like Shi Xueqing.

"Who is this ......?" Zhang Chengyong opened his mouth wide, looked at Shi Xueqing for a while, a woman on the screen, and stammered: "If it weren't for the fact that this picture was taken in 1989, I would really think that she was you." This woman is so much like you. ”

"The reason why we are like each other may be because of ......" Shi Xueqing bit her lip and said, "She is my mother!" ”

"What? She's your mother? Zhang Chengyong and I asked in surprise.

"Hmm!" Shi Xueqing nodded and said.

"How do you know? I remember you once told me that you ......" I asked as I looked at Shi Xueqing.

"I did tell you, I never met my mother, I grew up with my father. And I know this, of course someone told me! Shi Xueqing looked at me and said.

"Someone told you that?" I asked.

"Yes!" Shi Xueqing nodded slowly and said.

"Can I know who this person is?" I looked at Shi Xueqing and asked tentatively.

"I don't have a way to answer that." Shi Xueqing looked at me and said lightly.

"Still can't tell?" I asked.

"It's not that I can't say it this time, it's because I don't know who this person is." Shi Xueqing said with a wry smile.

"I don't know who it is? So how did he tell you all this? Zhang Chengyong asked on the side.

"I went out to buy you something to eat. But just as I was walking out of the hotel door, a little beggar grabbed me and gave me a note. Shi Xueqing said and took out a crumpled note from her pocket.

I saw that it was written: Wenhua Road, under the bridge, Exit B of the subway, there are people waiting, now. That man knows about your mother.

"And then you went?" I looked at Shi Xueqing and asked.

"Yes!" Shi Xueqing didn't say much, she just nodded.

"And then you saw the guy waiting for you?" I then asked.

"Hmm!" Shi Xueqing nodded slowly, and before I could speak, she continued: "When I saw this person, I knew that she was definitely not the person who wrote the note to me. ”

"Why? Why are you so sure? I asked.

"Because this person is definitely not going to be an old lady." Shi Xueqing said.

"You mean the person waiting for you is an old lady? How could it be an old lady? I said with a frown.

"When I saw the old lady, I was also surprised. Although I also wondered if someone else had deliberately changed her appearance, the moment she spoke, I knew that this person would never be disguised by someone else. Shi Xueqing suddenly paused when she said this, she seemed to have something to say, but after hesitating for a moment, she said slowly: "Although she only said a few words to me, I can still feel it." ”

"What did she tell you?" I looked at Shi Xueqing and asked.

"The first thing she said to me was to ask me if I was a little rock." Shi Xueqing looked at me and said.

"Little stones?" I asked, frowning.

"That's what my dad called me, and few people know it." Shi Xueqing said lightly.

"And where is the second sentence?" I then asked.

"The second thing she said to me was that your father was going to the Golden City because he was told that the last place your mother went was the Golden Land." Shi Xueqing looked at it and said word by word.

"I see! That's why you have that reaction when you see the woman in the picture! I said with a frown. So after saying this, where is the old lady? ”

"Just gone? You didn't follow her? I asked.

"I originally wanted to follow, but ......" Shi Xueqing said this helplessly and smiled bitterly, and then continued leisurely: "However, just a turn, the old lady disappeared." Not only was the old lady gone, but I was almost hit by a delivery boy. ”

"And you're back?" I asked.

"Yes! And then I'll be back! Shi Xueqing replied.

"No one is following you?" I asked.

"No one is following me!" Shi Xueqing said.

"Are you sure?" I asked.

"I'm sure!" Shi Xueqing said coldly.

"That's weird!" I frowned and slowly touched my nose, "Why ......?" ”

"Don't study the old lady yet. Tianyi, Xueqing, come and see this! Just before I could finish speaking, Zhang Chengyong on the side suddenly interrupted the conversation between the two of us.

"What's wrong?" As I spoke, I walked over with Shi Xueqing.

At this time, Zhang Chengyong had played the video screen in the SD card to the last minute or so. I saw that in the black and white picture, there was only one person left. The picture is taken from a low angle crookedly, and it looks like the person with the camera has either fallen to the ground or thrown the camera somewhere for some reason.

And what makes people feel extremely strange is that the white scientist in the picture seems to be crazy in the middle of the evil, falling to the ground and laughing, laughing until the whole person has begun to have spasms, but he is still laughing, and seems to be laughing very happily.

Suddenly, the somewhat fat guy stood up suddenly, as if he had been stabbed in the ass with a nail.

Then, with a backhand, he pulled a military dagger out of his jacket pocket and slashed it down his throat.

Blood poured out like a fountain in an instant, and the hot blood spilled on the ground, on the leaves, and some even splashed on the camera lens.

However, the middle-aged white man fell straight down, the handle of the knife went straight into his throat, his hand was still on the hilt, and even so, the middle-aged white man who fell down was still laughing, as if he had just completed a sacred and wonderful thing.

The picture stops here, the bloody scene in the picture is creepy, and the eerie smile is chilling.

But what sent chills down the spine even more was a puddle next to the white professor.

"What do you see here?" Zhang Chengyong pointed to the puddle on the screen and said.

At this time, I also noticed that there were two figures reflected in the puddle, two gray-white figures that looked like impermanence.

And what surprised me even more was that these two people seemed to be carrying an ancient petite.

"This ...... What is it? I was surprised and asked, "Where do you mean that there are other people?" ”

"I don't know what! However, it should not be people! Zhang Chengyong said as he rummaged through the materials, and after a while, he turned out a yellowed photo at the bottom, "Found it!" You're looking at this! ”

I didn't speak, and reached out to take the photo handed by Zhang Chengyong.

This is also a black-and-white photograph with the time in the lower right corner of the photograph showing that it was also taken in June 1989. Most of the trees in this photo are thick tree trunks, apparently taken in the middle of a dense forest, and behind a huge tree trunk on the right side of the photo, there are two gray-white figures.

Although the photograph is very blurry, it can still be seen that the two men are wearing wide robes and high, pointed hats on their heads, and they only show half of their bodies, and their crooked appearance looks like a puff of smoke, and they are floating like ghosts, as if they can be blown away by the wind.

"What the hell is this? Could it be a ghost? Shi Xueqing asked with a frown.

"I don't know! However, I've looked through the information about the Golden City three times, and this is the only one with a real clue. Although I don't know where the people in this photo come from, it is estimated that most of them are more than lucky! In addition, this is the only useful clue left......" Zhang Chengyong said, fast-forwarding the picture in the video at 16 times the speed, and finally froze the picture on a close-up.

The content of this frame is a complete animal skin map, but although this map looks very similar to the one in our hands, its right side has long been blurred due to the erosion of time.

"...... this map?" Shi Xueqing looked at the picture and said in surprise.

"It's a remnant!" Zhang Chengyong looked at us and said.

"But now we have a complete map." I said with a frown. "In other words, the picture we have in our hands has been restored later."

"That's right! That's what I mean, whether it's the map we have or the one they have, it looks like they've been restored. Zhang Chengyong touched his nose and said, "But, why are there so many copies of this map?" ”

"We'll have to ask the guy who repaired it." Shi Xueqing said coldly.

"Do you know who this person is?" I looked at Shi Xueqing and asked.

"I'm not sure, but there are only two people on the rivers and lakes who can restore such an ancient map so completely. Among these two people, there is another one that can be exactly the same, but only Wang Yiping in Suzhou is the same. Shi Xueqing said lightly.

"Are you talking about the Holy Hand Scholar Wang Yiping?" Zhang Chengyong asked with a frown.

"That's right!" Shi Xueqing nodded.

"I heard that this old man has already washed his hands many years ago! Are you sure it could be him? Zhang Chengyong asked.

"I'm not 100% sure, but I really can't find a second person besides him." Shi Xueqing said.

"It looks like we have to go to Suzhou before we go to Kunming!" I said with a wry smile.

"Hmmm! I'm going to book a ticket! Zhang Chengyong said that he was about to call.

"You book two tickets to Suzhou at the earliest tomorrow morning, and one ticket to Kunming immediately!" I looked at Zhang Chengyong and said.

"Two? Who is that ticket to Kunming for? Zhang Chengyong looked at me and wondered.

"Yourself, of course!" I looked at Zhang Chengyong and said, "I'll just go with Xueqing to find Wang Yiping, you have another important thing to do when you go to Kunming." ”

"What's the matter?" Zhang Chengyong asked.

"Do you remember the old Miao man who showed them the way in 89?" I said.

"Of course I do! What's wrong? Zhang Chengyong asked.

"There must have been a special reason why they came to him to lead the way. I hope you can find that old man before we go to Kunming, maybe you will have something special. I looked at Zhang Chengyong and said.

"Hmm!" Zhang Chengyong frowned for a long time, and finally nodded and said, "You're right!" That's it! ”

After speaking, Zhang Chengyong crossed the sofa, picked up the phone, and booked three air tickets as quickly as possible.
