The successive inferences are like seeing the scene in person, and I believe that is also the vast majority of the facts. It's just that who is the person who inserted the thick steel pipe into the back of the panda's heart?

At first, I wondered if it was the two indigenous men who woke up from the rain and thought of a way to untie the rope, and then enter the forest with the knife in their mouths one after another, and kill the flower panda. But one after another, it was said that the steel pipe was taken away by one of the three madmen and Brother Liang, so it was obviously impossible for them. And it can be inferred back and forth that in the end, this steel pipe is not in their hands, and it is left somewhere, who will pick it up and use it as a weapon.

One thing that stands out is that this person, like the three madmen, knows the key points of the panda well. Three inches below the neck, impartial, just right.

But the most serious thing at the moment is not the person who studied the panda killer, but Lao Tie.

It was me and I who flew away because of the previous conflict, which caused the two of them to stay here without carefully observing the surrounding environment. While we were arguing, Lao Tie spied around and found the black shadow of the panda under the shadow of the tree. At this time, he remained silent, and after I approached, he pretended to fight with me, but in fact he was planning a way to escape.

Then there is one last question: where did that Uncle Ping's voice come from?

After a long groan, he stared at each other and said: "We have all overlooked one thing, do you remember what kind of old iron sound we heard in the gap between the house and the mountain?" A word woke up the person in the dream, and my thoughts flew in my head, and at the end I asked word by word: "You mean, Uncle Ping is Lao Tie?" ”

"I don't know, but that voice just now came from Lao Tie." One after another, it was said that it was very affirmative.

In the crack, we heard a tearing and ugly sound, and then peeked through the gap one after another, and found that the person was actually Lao Tie. At that time, we were already reminded that Lao Tie could change the sound quality, and he could pronounce at least two sounds, and if Uncle Ping's old voice also came from him, it would be the third voice.

But there is one thing I still don't understand, "I remember seeing that Lao Tie's mouth didn't squirm at that time, how could he make a sound?" ”

He snorted one after another and said slowly: "There is a language in this world called ventriloquism. ”

Ventriloquism! It's not unheard of, one year there was a ventriloquist master who performed on stage at the Spring Festival Gala, and I was only amazed when I watched it. After this prompt, I gradually cleared my mind. When "Uncle Ping" opened his mouth to speak, I also felt that although this person was old, he was full of energy, so that his voice could be transmitted, and the power of ventriloquist was that he could not distinguish distance.

Of course, there is another reason in the middle, Lao Tie secretly used the black powder in the trouser tube to shake off to attract the black snake, making it sneer and spit letters, which interfered with the human ear a lot, and also attracted a large part of the attention, so that I didn't realize that the original sound was nearby at that time.

At this time, Lao Tie should have secretly broken the rattan that bound him, and after he suddenly swept out, he knew that his opportunity had come, and when all my attention was focused on the succession side, he quietly left. I believe he is more familiar with this woodland than anyone else. So even if the time is short, give him enough space to escape from being caught by us.

It's not that he is careless about Jingzhou, it's that Lao Tie is too good at taking advantage of the terrain and environment, and the loss is still at night. Otherwise, he couldn't sing this "Uncle Ping" drama at all, and he could see from a distance that the black shadow was not a person.

People have run away, and there is nowhere to be found in the middle of the night, and we can only reluctantly accept the reality. Glad there was still one person left, maybe I could dig out some other secrets from his mouth. But when he went to visit the man lying on the ground, he stiffened, and when he got up, he said, "He's dead." ”

"Dead? How so? "Obviously, when Lao Tiechu disappeared, I checked it, but he just fainted.

He pointed to his feet one after another, "There were several bloody wounds on his ankles, and before Lao Tie left, he drove the snake to kill him." "When I looked around, I knew that what he said was not wrong, Lao Tie actually killed this person when he was talking about the book of life and death in the tone of Uncle Ping. And when he really escaped, how could he allow him to leak his secrets alive.

In short, we just made a bad move, and in the end we still lost.

is very discouraged, listening to those people call Lao Tie Brother Tie, it is obvious that his status is very high. Therefore, I thought that if I caught him, it was equivalent to holding a trump card, and after snooping out something from his mouth, we would be able to skillfully plan and arrange, and we would not need any "sound and west" plan. But I didn't think that the card was not necessarily a trump card, but it was extremely cunning, cautious and vicious, leaving no room for anything.

Wait, leave room for that? As soon as the thought turned, I felt that I looked at me with a slightly cool gaze, and asked in a noncommittal tone: "You were also in the snake circle just now, why didn't the snake bite you?" ”

I looked up at him, and after a few seconds I asked, "Are you suspicious of me?" ”

He shook his head, his eyes frozen, "I don't doubt you, I just feel confused, it stands to reason that Lao Tie wants to kill people and kill his own people, how can he be kind to you?" Unless ......"

"Unless what?" I asked softly.

"Unless he wants to use you for something, or if he's hiding something in you, check for yourself and stop talking to him. I went and buried this man first. ”

I stared at the back of his head until he dragged the man to a slightly farther position, digging with a steel pipe, and I didn't retract my gaze. He was talking to me now, politely detached, and he wouldn't even look at me on purpose, his eyes were always drifting away. He actually really suspects it, he is as vicious as Lao Tie, and even his own subordinates do not hesitate to kill people, how can he not seize the opportunity to kill me together.

I lowered my eyes and stared at the black soil beneath my feet. Symbolically digging through the pockets of his body, he also rummaged through his fur coat, and finally sat down silently, looking at the busy figure in a daze.

It took about half an hour to complete the work one after another, and the reason why it took a long time was that he not only buried the dead man, but also the body of the flower panda. Sometimes he is actually kind-hearted, knowing that the final outcome of exposing the corpse wilderness is that humans and pandas are eaten by other carnivores. But doesn't he know? Even if it is buried deeply, it can still smell the breath by relying on the animal's nose. These are all animal survival instincts.

When he had finished filling in the soil, he walked up to me, and when he got closer, he asked, "Did you find it?" ”

I shook my head, he didn't show too nervousness, just said ambiguously, "Maybe that's what Lao Tie is for, he wants us to have a rift." It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, and it is better to leave first, in case he brings someone back. ”

The corners of my mouth curled slightly in the dark, and before I could think of a reason, he thought of it for me. One after another, why are you so considerate of others? The muttering in his heart naturally didn't put it on his lips, got up and followed him through the woods, he held the black pipe firearm in one hand and the thick steel pipe in the other.

Originally, he wanted to give me the thick steel pipe as a backup for self-defense, but I instinctively rejected that thing, and resolutely shook my head and refused to ask for it. He handed me the black-piped firearm and explained its principle to me, but I thought about it but refused. The use of this firearm requires not only caution, but also accuracy, if there is only one phosphorous fire in it, I do not want to waste it on my own hands; If there is no phosphorus fire in it, then I will take it for nothing.

In the end, he reluctantly received two weapons one after another, and naturally he took the lead to open the way, and I followed closely behind.

Presumably, the time should be close to three or four o'clock, and if we stay up for another hour or two, the sky will dawn, and we will not be so constrained.

But I never thought that this night was very long, so long that it was ...... Enough for us not to see the dawn.

In fact, when I felt that the soil under my feet was soft, I and I were already vigilant, so when we stepped on the air, we leaned back almost at the same time to balance our bodies. But at this moment, suddenly a strong wind swept in mid-air, and it was pushed forward from back to front, and my eyes flashed, and I felt a heavy blow behind me, pushing people forward. In the next moment, his feet collapsed, his body sank uncontrollably, and he instinctively wanted to grab something, but as soon as his hand was raised, he was held tightly by a large palm, and then he never let go.

Because I knew that it was one after another, my frightened heart calmed down a little at that moment, and even if I tried my best to deny and clear some thoughts, I couldn't stop the sudden fluctuation of my mind in times of crisis. We felt that the layers under us were shattered, all the way to the bottom, and when we finally calmed down, we began to try to scratch the surroundings with our other hand, and all we touched were stones.

I noticed that the stone seemed to be very brittle, and almost as soon as I put my hand on it, it immediately shattered. So much so that we couldn't find any point of focus to control our sinking body, and we heard heavy gasps one after another, believing that the situation was similar on his side.

When the last moment came, there was another machismo, and my body flipped and moved slightly, and I really hit the hard bottom, and I fell on top of him. Even if the speed of sinking is not fast because of the force under the body, from the height to the bottom, it is at least about ten meters, which is equivalent to falling down as high as a four-story building.

I didn't care about the dull pain in my chest, so I turned over and asked, "Successively, how are you?" ”

But he didn't listen to his answer, his heart sank, and he reached out to touch his face, and soon found that he seemed to have fainted. But to cause a person to faint, it must be extremely painful for the person to lose consciousness, so he must be injured.

I thought I was going to lose my mind in horror, but surprisingly I was calm and able to give effective instructions in my head. He reached for his pockets, took out the tar-stained strip of cloth, and pulled a lighter out of his trouser pocket. After two hits, a strip of cloth was lit, and after being stained with tar, it didn't burn too quickly, and then it began to burn on the fire and carefully inspect the body one after another.

From his arm to his shoulder blades to his leg bones, he felt all the way through, and found no signs of breakage. Eventually, I turned my gaze back to his face, and if he hadn't suffered a severe fracture, there was only one possibility that could have caused him to faint: his head.
