Ni Xiaowan explained: "If Jingusi doesn't go back to the past, how can he use Takahashi Jiro's self-made intelligence to come to the Northeast and blend into the secret search class? How can I hand over the "Ten Thousand Beasts Diagram of Kyushu" that Gu Yunrong stole to you? And Gu Yunrong doesn't go to the future and comes back, how can she know about the future? ”

"Could it be that ......" Tang Qianlin hesitated, "Could it be that this is the truth of the Shaman Spirit Palace?" Is this a fact that the Hunters have been desperately trying to hide for hundreds of years? ”

An Ran said: "It's not just our world? ”

You Sifang said: "Things are far from being as simple as you think, not only the hunting, I think, maybe the whole alien path is involved." ”

Ye Da asked, "So senior, how did you find this place later?" ”

You Sifang said: "After I studied the book of "Ten Thousand Beasts in Kyushu" left by my master, I found that most of the strange creatures recorded on it came from outside the Guan, and I realized that this was a clue at the time. So I went to the gate on my own, but without any clue to these things, I scurried around like a headless fly, and went around to explore the places where I claimed to have found all kinds of strange creatures. ”

You Sifang stayed outside the gate for several years, and at that time, the outside of the gate was not as good as the inside of the pass, there were not so many tunzi, and the population was relatively sparse, so You Sifang often lived a life of eating and sleeping in the open.

At that time, You Sifang could be said to be aimless, and in the end he retreated, knowing that he was not as smart as his master, and decided to return to Guannai.

Just when You Sifang was packing up and preparing to leave, the Mudanjiang area was suddenly under martial law, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. After You Sifang inquired, he learned that the reason was that a group of explorers from Japan's Manchurian Railway Co., Ltd. had disappeared.

When An Ran heard this, he asked, "What year was that?" ”

You Sifang recalled: "It should be 1914. ”

An Ran thought for a while and said, "It happened to be the year of the Manchurian infighting. ”

You Sifang asked puzzledly: "The Manchurian infighting incident?" ”

Enron explained: "I heard my father say that the cause was the power struggle between the third generation president of the Manchurian Railway, Ryutaro Nomura, Vice President Daihachi Ito, and Shintaro Inuzuka, the third generation president of the Manchurian Railway, the Korean Railway, the three-line intermodal transportation problem of the Manchurian Railway, and the internal organizational reform of the Manchurian Railway. ”

After the Manchurian civil strife incident, various forces represented by political parties, warlords, chaebols, and bureaucrats in Japan took advantage of this incident to start a struggle for the rights of the Manchurian Railway, which eventually led to the collapse of the Yamamoto Gonbei cabinet in Japan at that time, and the new cabinet took advantage of this incident to complete the purge of the Manchurian Railway, and Yujiro Nakamura, who represented the warlord forces, succeeded as the fourth generation of Manchurian Railway.

Tang Qianlin asked An Ran: "Is there anything related to the infighting of the Manchurian Railway and the disappearance of those Japanese?" ”

An Ran said: "According to my father, there is a connection, I heard that they found something terrible, so there is a disagreement within the Manchurian Railway, among the three giants of the Manchurian Railway, Nomura Ryutaro believes that the investigation should continue, while the vice president thinks that there is no need to investigate this kind of thing, and it costs money and money, and Inuzuka, as a director, feels that this kind of thing should be handed over to the army." ”

You Sifang said: "In the end, it was handed over to the army?" ”

An Ran said: "Yes, senior, do you know? ”

You Sifang continued: "After the martial law was lifted, I could finally leave, but I heard a rumor in the hotel that the Japanese of Mantie found monsters after entering the mountain, because they were separated, one of them ran back to report the news, Mantie sent a large number of people to look for it, but they didn't find it, so they had to turn to Zhang Zuolin for help, Zhang Zuolin was worried about the expansion of the gaffe, so he quickly ordered martial law. ”

Tang Qianlin asked, "Met a monster?" What kind of youkai? ”

You Sifang shook his head: "I didn't know at the time, I just thought of the "Ten Thousand Beasts in Kyushu", and I felt a little curious, who knew that at this time, the Japanese began to recruit Orion, hoping to find the four missing Manchurian Railway employees by borrowing Orion who was familiar with the mountains and forests. ”

You Sifang felt that this might be an opportunity, but he didn't have a clue anyway, so it was better to follow the other Orions into the mountain, maybe he could find something, so You Sifang lied that he was also an Orion and blended into the recruited team.

At that time, You Sifang didn't know that he never came back.

The Japanese trucked You Sifang and came to the foot of the mountain known as Wenfang Mountain under the escort of the Northeast Army.

At the foot of the mountain, a large number of troops of the Northeast Army were already stationed, as well as a small number of Japanese troops, and judging from the faces of these people, they were all very tired.

You Sifang learned that these troops had been searching the mountains in turn for several days, except for some discarded survey equipment, half of the figures were not found, and in addition to the severe cold of winter, they were not familiar with the terrain, so they did not dare to go too deep, so they had to withdraw and hire hunters to continue to search in the mountains.

Before leaving, the Japanese explained to all the hunters the basic situation of the Manchurian Railway Investigation Class, originally a total of 9 people, from Dalian to Mudanjiang, after the change in the trip, 4 of them returned to Dalian, the remaining 5 people continued to investigate in the mountains, who knows that not long after entering the mountains, there was a situation.

Ni Xiaowan asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"The situation is that you are lost and attacked by wild beasts." You Sifang lit another cigarette, "The Japanese were vague when they explained the situation, and they didn't let the only Japanese who escaped explain the situation, but they said that they got lost on the fifth day after entering the mountain, and they were attacked by wild beasts, and when a hunter asked what kind of beast they were attacking, the Japanese said that they were attacked by bears." ”

When the Japanese man said the word "bear", the hunters below were stunned, and then most of them laughed. Because even three-year-olds know that in this season, brown bears have long been well fed, find a cave cat to get up and hibernate, unless they encounter danger, they generally do not wake up until the beginning of spring the next year.

But regardless of whether what the Japanese said is true or not, since they are hired to find someone, and they have paid a fixed amount in advance, then go into the mountains to find it, anyway, going into the mountains is also a familiar road for these hunters, if you can catch prey in the mountains, it is also an unexpected gain.

Tang Qianlin asked: "How many hunters were hired by the Japanese at that time?" ”

You Sifang recalled: "About forty or fifty people, before entering the mountain, they were divided into three groups, entering the mountain from three different directions, and after entering, they were divided into several teams, each team of three to four people......"

There are a total of three people in You Sifang's team, and in addition to him, there are two fathers and sons, named Guan Dasheng and Guan Tiezhu.

The father and son were completely attracted by the generous remuneration, after all, in the winter, there was no good livelihood outside the Guan, and farmers like them could only rest at home.

The most important thing is that the Tunzi where Guan Dasheng and Guan Tiezhu live is next to Wenfang Mountain, and they are relatively familiar with the surrounding area.

However, after entering the mountain, Guan Dasheng told You Sifang: "Brother, I don't know if you have a local accent, so you must be here to mix up some spare money, right?" ”

You Sifang didn't know what Guan Dasheng meant by asking, but he still smiled innocently and answered.

Guan Dasheng said: "It's not easy to mix up some money these days, don't take your life into the mountains in this winter, so let's wait for us to go up the mountain, rest in the cave I used to find for a few days, and then go down the mountain, just tell those Japanese that they haven't found anyone." ”

As soon as Guan Dasheng finished speaking, his son Guan Tiezhu added next to him: "You can do anything, just don't go over the mountain." ”

You Sifang felt strange and asked, "Why?" ”

Guan Tiezhu was just about to explain, but Guan Dasheng glared at him, and he had to swallow back what he wanted to say.

The two fathers and sons led You Sifang into the mountain, and they didn't find any clues along the way, except for the footprints of small animals in the snow, there were no signs of human activity, and I don't know if the heavy snow a few days ago covered up the footprints of those people.

The three of them walked on the mountain all day, and finally came to the cave that Guan Tiezhu said after nightfall.

If you want to say that this cave is also hidden, hidden behind a few pine trees, if you don't go in and look carefully, you really can't find a cave in it.

"Originally, this was a hole, but I found it when I tracked down an old blind man." Guan Dasheng led You Sifang through the pine trees, "Because I found this hole, the old blind man never came back, and this place became a place for me to rest." ”

As soon as they finished speaking, the three of them saw the entrance to the cave, and at the same time found the chaotic footprints of the hole.

Guan Dasheng raised his hand to signal to stop, looked carefully at the footprints on the ground and said, "Someone is in the hole." ”

Guan Tiezhu squatted there and said, "Dad, you say, could it be those Japanese?" ”

Guan Dasheng shook his head: "You wait here, I'll go in and take a look." ”

As soon as Guan Dasheng finished speaking, You Sifang leaned over and burrowed into the cave, and Guan Dasheng had to follow him, constantly whispering to him behind him to retreat.

After You Sifang got into the cave, he found two Japanese people leaning and lying there, looking like they were dead, but the strange thing was that there were open cans and a bunch of bonfires that had not been extinguished.

You Sifang stepped forward to investigate, and found that one of them was dead, and the one who was sitting against the wall still had a breath, watching You Sifang step forward, vigilantly trying to pull out the pistol on his waist, but was held down by You Sifang.

At this moment, a man's voice came from the door: "Don't come near him!" ”

You Sifang and Guan Dasheng were stunned for a moment, turned to look at the entrance of the cave, and saw a Japanese holding a gun to restrain Guan Tiezhu, threatening the two to stay away from the seriously injured Japanese.

When Guan Dasheng saw that his son was captured, he quickly explained: "We are not bad people, we came up to the mountain to find you." ”

The Japanese with the gun, who could speak Chinese fluently, motioned to Guan Tiezhu and the others to throw their weapons on the snow outside, and then motioned for them to stand aside, and then stepped forward to check the injuries of his companions.

You Sifang said on the side: "It seems that he is not lightly injured. ”

The Japanese turned to look at You Sifang: "Did you bring medicine?" ”

The three of them shook their heads, the Japanese frowned, and pulled the collar of their companions, at this time, You Sifang and the others saw that the collarbone of the seriously injured Japanese was already blurred with flesh and blood, as if they had been bitten by something.

"Daddy." Guan Tiezhu said in a low voice at this time, "These Japanese seem to have gone to the bottom of the mountain stream." ”

You Sifang frowned and looked at Guan Tiezhu: "What do you mean?" ”

Guan Dasheng motioned to Guan Tiezhu to shut up, but just smiled at You Sifang: "It's nothing, it's nothing, it's good to find someone." ”

The Japanese with guns looked at You Sifang and said, "I still have a companion in that ancient city below......"
