There was nothing else to do that day, so I simply let Gao Lingkai drive out of Yuzhou City and went north to a place called Luosha Town.

Not far beyond Luosha Town, it is the Ganliang Desert.

The streets of Rocha are quite clean and the greenery is good.

It is said that in the past ten years, under the organization of the government, a long road of windbreak shrubs and trees with a width of thousands of meters has been planted along the edge of the Ganliang Desert, which has effectively curbed the expansion of the desert and reduced the number of sandstorms that used to occur in all seasons.

Today, the town of Rocha is not only much cleaner than before, but the crops in the fields are also growing better than before.

Therefore, the residents of Luosha Town seem to be relatively wealthy, and the houses in the town are not much different from those in the suburbs of Yuzhou.

We parked our cars in town and walked around the town casually. I found that there was a small park in the center of the town, and some old people gathered in the park to play cards and chess, or gossip in the shade of the trees.

We walked up to the two old men who were gossiping and sat down, and Gao Lingkai went to talk to them with a grin.

Gao Lingkai was a familiar acquaintance, and within a few minutes, he had a hot fight with two old people.

We took the opportunity to ask the two old men if they had heard of "Xi Zhaoguo".

An old man shook his head blankly, while another old man stared at us and said, "What are you asking about Xi Zhaoguo?" ”

"The old man seems to have heard of Xi Zhaoguo?" I hurriedly said, "We are archaeologists, just because we heard that there used to be a small country called Xi Zhaoguo in the Ganliang Desert, so we want to enter the desert to investigate, but I don't know if Xi Zhaoguo really existed?" ”

"You're going into the desert? Don't you want to live anymore? The old man shook his head again and again, and suddenly mysteriously lowered his voice, "Two years ago, in our town, there were many tomb robbers, and I heard that they used to go in and out of the desert several times in a row, as if they were looking for ...... What are you talking about...... Xi Zhaoguo! But can that kind of place be found casually? Even if you find it, you can't end up well! I also heard that they had found a large tomb with the words "Surely the Tomb Entered" on the door of the tomb was inscribed, and the result was ...... Just two years ago, all these tomb robbers died overnight! ”

The old man was mysterious, and I don't know if it was true, or because all the grave robbers died overnight two years ago, and all sorts of strange theories were inevitably circulating in the town.

So I didn't ask about the "Xi Zhaoguo" anymore, only asked the old man if he could find a guide to enter and exit the desert.

"Except for those tomb robbers, it's really hard to find a guide!" The old man shook his head again and again, "There is nothing in this great desert except for the ancient tombs buried deep in the ground, you said that except for the tomb robbers, who is impatient to live and want to run into the desert?" ”

The old man's words were meaningless, so we had to say goodbye to the old man, and went around the town again, seeing that it was getting late, so we had to go back to the city of Yuzhou.

The next day, I went around the town of Rocha again, and found the homes of several grave robbers in the town.

Because these grave robbers died violently on the same night two years ago, everyone in the town knows where they live if they ask.

It's a pity that I didn't ask these families about anything.

But on the third day, Captain Ma suddenly called me and asked me to go with him to visit a wealthy merchant.

I got into his car with Gao Lingkai, Gao Lingkai was sitting in the passenger seat, and the police officer I had seen before was driving.

I sat in the back seat with Captain Ma, and I asked Captain Ma if he had found anything, and Captain Ma said: "In the past two years, there have been several other inexplicable deaths except for the gang of tomb robbers, all of whom died were rich businessmen. However, after talking to you the day before yesterday, I reopened these cases in the past two days and studied them carefully, only to find that in the year or two after the death of these people, their businesses gradually declined, and finally all of them were acquired by a group called Yongsheng Group. ”

When I heard him mention "eternal ascension", it suddenly occurred to me that Sasha's body has not decayed for thousands of years, isn't it similar to "eternal life"?

Hurriedly asked Captain Ma: "You mean that we are going to visit the boss of Yongsheng Group now?" ”

"Yes!" Captain Ma nodded, "If it was only this situation that was investigated in the past two days, it would still be abrupt for us to rush to the door, but after investigation and analysis by other colleagues in the police station, I am sure that there is an eighty percent chance that the black box has entered the villa of the big boss of Yongsheng Group!" ”

When I heard this, I was overjoyed and hurriedly asked.

Captain Ma said, "Didn't your companion surnamed Li drive to the northern suburbs of the city?" Although all the surveillance on the road was out of order for a long time, I think it was actually a clue. So I asked the police officers below to find out what was going on on the road behind the failure of the surveillance. In the end, three cars were locked, and one of them drove all the way into the villa of the big boss of Yongsheng Group. ”

Captain Ma's words made me even more overjoyed, and I couldn't help but sincerely admire that the professional criminal investigators were really different from me.

Captain Ma was naturally happy to be amazed by me, and said: "I don't expect that the boss surnamed Chen to be so honest can hand over the black box, the reason why you want to go with me is mainly to let you feel it and see what you say...... That evil thing, could it be hidden in that villa! ”

I hurriedly nodded my head and said I would do my best.

When asked where the big boss's villa was, Captain Ma replied that it was east of Rocha Town, which made me feel more and more that the evil ghost who killed people at the first strike was probably hiding there.

Soon the car passed through the town of Rosha, and after driving two or three kilometers further, I saw a large grove of trees.

A splendid villa rises majestically among the woods, brand new, as if it had just been built.

Sure enough, Captain Ma said that this villa had just been completed a few months ago, and the big boss surnamed Chen had just moved in.

I looked at this gorgeous villa, and my heart couldn't help but beat wildly, and I was already 100% confident that Sasha and the other evil ghosts were hidden in this villa.

It's not that I've already felt the cold, but because the style of this villa is very chic, it is by no means a Han style building, and it looks closer to the royal palace in a Western fairy tale. But there are also differences with the royal palace in fairy tales.

And this kind of architectural style that is neither Chinese nor Western, and also Chinese and Western, I vaguely remember seeing it in the city where Sasha showed me where she lived.

Boss Chen happened to be at home, and when he heard that Captain Ma of the criminal investigation team of the police station was coming, Boss Chen personally greeted him.

With a fat figure and a round face with a smile, he looks like a businessman who has been socializing at the wine table for a long time.

Boss Chen was followed by a man in his thirties, thin and tall, but his face was gloomy, in stark contrast to the smiling Boss Chen.

Under the courtesy of Boss Chen, he entered the spacious living room, sat down with the guests and hosts, and offered fragrant tea to his own servants.

Captain Ma got straight to the point and said: "We came this time because this friend surnamed Gao lost a black box, according to what he said, the box contained a very rare treasure, and after a careful investigation by our police, it was found that a black car that stole the black box had entered Boss Chen's villa!" ”

Boss Chen said "ah" and blurted out: "How come? Nothing at all! ”

He said this, but he couldn't help but glance at the gloomy man behind him.

The man reacted quickly, immediately stepped forward, bowed his head and said, "I'm sorry boss, someone did send in a black box a few days ago, saying that there was a treasure in it that he wanted to sell, I went out to take a look, and I gave the man a sum of money to take it." But it's not a particularly valuable treasure, so I forgot to mention it to the boss. ”

I didn't expect this man to admit to the black box as soon as he opened his mouth, and I couldn't help but glance at Captain Ma.

turned his head to look at Boss Chen again, but saw that he was unhappy and said, "How can you do this?" I like to collect antiques, but how can you just take things like these things of unknown origin? Now that Captain Ma has come to the door in person, where do you put my face? Why don't you hurry up and bring it up and give it to Captain Ma! ”

The man hurriedly agreed, bowed his head and retreated.

I heard the man speak with a strange accent, so I asked Boss Chen with a smile what is the man's surname and where is his name.

Boss Chen said: "He is from other places, his surname is Yao, I think he is quite capable, so he stays by his side!" I didn't expect him to become more and more emboldened, and he actually put away these things of unknown origin behind my back! Don't worry, this brother, since it's your thing, you can take it! Although I also spent money, I just thought I was spending money to buy a lesson! ”

He didn't leak anything out of his words, and I could only say haha.

Soon a man surnamed Yao came in with a black box, Gao Lingkai saw it at a glance, grabbed it in his hand, looked up and down, and said, "It's indeed our black box!" ”

I was very puzzled, and for a while I couldn't understand why the surnamed Yao would return the black box to me so easily.

He said that the black box did not contain any valuable treasures, could it be that he had secretly replaced Sasha's head?

I thought to myself, and when I saw a new iron lock on the black box, I looked up at the person surnamed Yao again.

The surnamed Yao didn't speak, but directly took out a key and handed it to me, and then quietly stood behind Boss Chen.

I opened the lid with the key and lifted it hard, and it was not surprising to see that it was not Sasha's head, but a bronze horse that could fit in the box.

Look at the patina of the horse's body, but the craftsmanship is smooth and exquisite, it should be a valuable old antique.

Gao Lingkai opened his mouth and said, "This is not ......"

My mind was racing, and I urgently opened my mouth to intercept his words, and said: "This is not our previous lock, but this treasure is really our treasure, and I want to thank Boss Chen here!" ”

I said, deliberately taking out the bronze horse and shaking it.

saw that Boss Chen's face changed, and he seemed to want to say something.

But as the man surnamed Yao behind him cleared his throat in a low voice, Boss Chen closed his mouth again.
