I smiled, took out a piece of gum from my pocket and handed it to her, she blushed and waved her hand, I peeled off the paper with gum and handed it to her, looking at her with electric eyes, "You're welcome." ”

The front desk lady was embarrassed to take it, but she didn't eat it right away, and carefully put it aside.

I re-used my pick-up skills and began to chat with her almost every day, and she gradually let down her guard, but after chatting for a while, she reminded me that if it was okay, I would go to rest, and if I talked for too long, it would be bad if I was seen and told to the boss.

"Oh, well, then I won't bother you with your work...... By the way, let me ask you one more thing, how is the security here, will there be a case of disappearance? ”

The front desk lady was stunned for a moment and thought about it seriously, "It has happened a few times before, I saw a missing person notice pasted on the telephone pole on the side of the road, but they are all outsiders who have disappeared here, and the locals are born and raised here, and they are familiar with the geographical environment here, so they will not lose it." ”

I nodded, "That's right, why are all the people missing from outsiders?" Shouldn't it be just that they're familiar with the environment, so they won't get lost, right? ”

The front desk lady pursed her lips and thought about it seriously, "Probably because I came here to be unfamiliar with the place, and I was deceived by some liars or something, although the people of Yuelonggang are simple, there are also some people with bad intentions." ”

The front desk lady told me that she had also vaguely heard that in those places on the farm and pasture, some outsiders would be caught doing illegal work, and they would not be paid any wages, and they would be used as free labor.

I felt a thrill in my heart, and when I asked about the situation, she didn't know.

In addition, she told me that the locals, especially the Rong people, believed in the god "God of War" Adar, who was a famous general during the Yuan Dynasty, and his soldiers were brave and good at fighting, and he himself was brave and resourceful, and he was almost invincible.

Locals worship him as a god of worship, and there is a temple of the god of war near the west, which is worshiped by many people during the New Year's holidays.

I asked her for the specific address, it takes about 20 minutes to get there by taxi from here, and it is not very remote, but there are no residential buildings around, it is some wasteland, and the farther away is the mountains and the like.

I immediately decided to go over and have a look, but the front desk lady was very nervous and advised me not to go at this time, it was not safe to be alone.

I smiled and turned straight out of the hotel.

At this point, I took a taxi, and I said that I was going to the Temple of War, and the driver immediately slaughtered me and asked me for 60 yuan in car money, so I got into the car without saying a word.

The more the car goes west, the more remote the surroundings become, and the feeling of alpine jungle also comes out, gradually moving away from the life of the city, and occasionally you will see some small buildings built by the locals themselves, and the lights are also turned off at this time.

The journey took 38 minutes, and the driver put me on a dirt road with potholes, and he pointed to the left front, "You can walk through here and turn a corner, I can't get there, because there is a depression over there, and the car can't go down." ”

"Okay, then can you wait here for me for a while, I'll come over soon, and I'll double the cost of your car."

The driver looked at me in disbelief, and after a few seconds he still shook his head.

"How about I give you 200 yuan?"

I stretched out two fingers, the driver thought for a moment, nodded slowly, and muttered, "You are really strange, why do you come to this place at night, what are you curious about, it's just a temple." ”

I didn't speak, I put on the hat of my down jacket and headed to the left.

The road under his feet was uneven, and when he walked one foot deeper, one foot shallow, and after walking a little way, there was a depression in it, and there were many dry branches in it, standing upright, like a place of torture.

Almost every step I took, my trouser legs would be rubbed by dry branches and leaves, and the sound of "swish" sounded particularly harsh.

I turned the corner along the road and walked past a grove of trees, and I saw the temple of the god of war in front of me.

Unlike what I expected, the temple was very poorly built, gray bricks and tiles, and it looked a little dilapidated, with a faint candlelight inside.

The front desk lady said that there will be many people to worship during the New Year's holidays, and I originally thought that this temple of the god of war would be built very majestic, at least not to have such a shabby feeling.

Before entering the Temple of the God of War, I reached into my pocket and pinched a piece of rune paper, just in case.

The sitting appearance of the Temple of the God of War is also very strange, it is facing the north, slightly tilted, and not far from its north is the continuous nobility, the black pressure is like a huge monster, and it is quite terrifying.

I walked quickly into the temple of the god of war, and saw a statue of a general standing majestically, holding his weapon in his hand, a strong and powerful broadsword, which should be the god of war Adalben.

His appearance is very ordinary, just a mighty and domineering general, and there is no superstition and mythology.

There are no other sculptures in the temple of the god of war, there are a lot of candlesticks and incense burners on the altar, there are many burned incense candles on it, and thick incense ashes have fallen, and it can be seen from here that there are not many pilgrims who usually come to worship, so it may really be the local economy, they are not able to rebuild the victory temple.

The whole temple of the god of war is not big, it is less than 100 square meters, and the height is only three meters, I carefully inspected the temple, and was immediately disappointed, I thought that I would find some clues when I ran here, but this is just a very ordinary temple.

I went out of the Temple of War and went back the same way, the driver was still there, I fulfilled my promise and handed him 200 yuan, and he took it a little embarrassed.

The car drove out for a long time before he looked back at me embarrassedly, "You are really a waste of money, you came to this place at night and spent so much money, I'm sorry, I can't ...... it for my livelihood."

"I can understand, you are willing to send me over at this time, I am already very grateful, do you usually come to worship this God of War Temple?" I noticed just now that this driver doesn't look like a Rong person, he should be of another nationality.

He smiled dryly, "I won't come, this temple is a spiritual sustenance for many locals, I really think that the so-called god of war can keep one side safe, how is it possible, if so, how can there be droughts and storms every year." ”

"This is normal, the common people believe in the gods, droughts and storms are natural disasters, and the gods cannot be changed."

The driver sighed deeply, shook his head and didn't say anything more.

I started to get on the farm and ranch again, trying to get some insider information from him.

The driver said that those farm ranchers borrowed land to make money, although they looked rough and vicissitudes on the outside, but in fact, everyone had a lot of money.

He also said sourly that if they hadn't had land, they wouldn't have fared so well, and only they knew how many unsightly things they had done.

"Something unsightly?"

When I asked, the driver immediately realized that he had slipped his mouth, and he shook his head again and again, "No, I just said it casually, hehe, in short, that group of people can make money." ”

Obviously, the driver knew something, but he didn't want to talk about it in front of me, because he was afraid that what I was saying would get him in trouble, so I didn't have to ask him any more.

When I got back to my hotel room, washed up and lay down, I was exhausted, and I had nothing of value to find out after a day of running to make sure that the situation was suspicious on the farm and ranch.

Xue Xiaxia, if you hold on a little longer, I'll be near you, and I'll be able to find you soon.

At 8:15 a.m., I got up and just finished brushing my teeth when Xiao Yuan's phone called.

"Good morning...... Xiao Yuan"

"You, you hurry up and come to the police station, the deputy director is looking for you, he is angry, you have to pay attention." Xiao Yuan's voice was anxious and worried.

My heart sank, could it be that the guy realized that this case and my identity were very special, and wanted to investigate and question me?

But it seems that Zhu Chen has already introduced the situation to him before, he won't be so slow, they are all colleagues, not so harsh.

I put down the phone and hurriedly packed up and rushed to the police station.

The door to Tutujiwumu's office was open, and I walked straight inside, and I saw his gloomy black face.

"Deputy Director, are you looking for me?" I asked with a smile.

He glared at me angrily and reprimanded loudly, "You get out of here now, I have long expected that your motives for coming here are not pure, you will disappear from here immediately if you are interested, and you will not be allowed to step into Yuelonggang for half a step in the future, otherwise I will make you regret it for the rest of your life even if I am not a policeman." ”

Fuck, this is threatening me as a big brother in the underworld, and now that I've torn my face, I don't need to be submissive to him.

I smiled and walked up to him, and said in a straight voice, "Deputy Director, I came here to Zhu Chen to call you personally to explain the situation, and you agreed, I only stayed here for one day, and I didn't do anything illegal or criminal, you just said that my motives were not pure, let me get out, where is the basis for your words?" ”

Tutujiwumu's nostrils were so large with anger that they resembled the nose of a rhinoceros.

"You said that you came to investigate a disappearance case and look for the so-called missing woman, but when you arrived here, you went around asking about the situation in Yuelonggang, and you ran to many places in one day, and asked a lot of people, and you dare to say that you are not a spy with a special purpose, or call you an intruder."

A herd of alpacas roared over my head, and a mouthful of old blood almost spurted out,

"Big brother, this is an era of peace, and I am also from the same country as you, what kind of spy and intruder? You've opened your brain too much, isn't it? "I couldn't laugh or cry, what the hell was going on with this guy.

"Our Yuelonggang has always been a treasure land rich in resources, and there are many people who have coveted Yuelonggang for a long time, and they want to take Yuelonggang for themselves, which is really wishful thinking."
