In Meishan, Sichuan, a tributary divides the town of Jiangkou into two.

The river is extremely wide, and the entire Minjiang River becomes sparkling under the moonlight in the sky. Suddenly, a series of splashes sounded on the calm river, and then three heads were revealed, and they shook their heads and wiped their faces with their hands.

"How long have we been down there?" Zhang Tianyi looked at the moon above his head and didn't know what time it was.

Lin Fan patted the water in his ears and shook his head and said, "I don't know, I guess it's been a while." ”

Wu Shengnan didn't speak, adjusted his breathing a little and swam to the nearest shore.

Once ashore, they found themselves in the lower reaches of the estuary, which divides the estuary into two parts, mostly ordinary residential houses on one side and neon-lit high-rise buildings on the other side.

Zhang Tianyi and Lin Fan took off their clothes and twisted the water, the clothes were full of water, and when they encountered air, they were cold on their bodies.

Wu Shengnan didn't seem to feel the cold, and the water in her hair dripped down her face, and she didn't react. She took a few steps, then crouched on the ground and opened her backpack as if looking for something.

"Hey!" Zhang Tianyi shouted, and Wu Shengnan quickly stopped the movement in his hand and walked over with his bag on his back.

"What's wrong?" Wu Shengnan asked.

Zhang Tianyi shook the mobile phone in his hand and said, "The mobile phone is flooded, what should we do now?" ”

"You guys wait here, I'll see if there's anything nearby where I can stay." After speaking, Wu Shengnan found a direction and left.

Zhang Tianyi shook his clothes and wondered in his heart, could it be that he was stimulated by something before, is this style of doing things still hers?

However, it is also possible that after going through so many things, she changed sex and successfully transitioned to the role of a woman. But then Zhang Tianyi suddenly stopped the movement in his hand and said in a lost voice: "It's broken!" That must have run away! ”

Zhang Tianyi immediately put on his clothes and beckoned Lin Fan to hurry up and chase them, putting on his clothes, the cool breeze blew on their bodies, and they shivered, but they couldn't take care of it so much at the moment, and now there was no explanation for many things, so she couldn't just leave.

Lin Fan followed Zhang Tianyi, and the two ran all the way to the downtown area and did not find the shadow of Wu Shengnan.

"Okay, she must have already figured it out, and we won't be able to find her if we continue to toss." Zhang Tianyi bent over and held on to the fire hydrant, panting.

Lin Fan answered and went to find a place to stay, Zhang Tianyi looked at the orange lights on the street in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhang Tianyi walked into a supermarket and bought a pack of cigarettes, of course, the main thing was to ask what time it was. After coming out, Zhang Tianyi sighed, he didn't feel that time passed so quickly, but he didn't expect to stay under Pengzu Mountain for nearly a day and a night.

Too many things happened in this day and night, first Ye Zi's death, then Yang Yong's escape after killing the spirit fox, and finally the gold bricks and gold bars seen in the cave were an unprecedented visual impact.

Of course, there are many questions, who is buried in the golden coffin? And who is the mysterious figure behind the leaves? Where is Daddy now? And what does that mysterious number "0216" represent? There was so much news, and he couldn't consume Zhang Tianyi for a while.

It was almost 11 o'clock when Lin Fan came back, and the two of them simply ate some food and went back to the room to rest.

Zhang Tianyi took off the hand-picked phone card and replaced it with the newly bought mobile phone, and found that there were several missed calls from Lin Keren after turning it on. He replied to Lin Keren, and learned on the phone that nothing happened after he left, Ping'an Town gradually returned to peace, and the city bureau also assigned a few new colleagues to serve in the police station, but Yang Yong still did not catch it.

"Tell them they can stop searching, and everyone stays in the hospital and must keep an eye on the poplar saplings." Zhang Tianyi arranged that as long as the poplar sapling was in the sight of the police, he was not afraid that he would not be able to catch Yang Yong.

"Okay, I know, let's start the arrangements now." Lin Keren replied.

"Wait a minute." Zhang Tianyi thought for a while and said again: "Don't let your guard down in the town, and ask the colleagues on duty to pay more attention to some outsiders, especially if they have only recently appeared, notify me immediately if there is anything suspicious." ”

Zhang Tianyi originally wanted Lin Keren to investigate Wu Shengnan's personal information in depth, but when he thought of Wu Shengnan's style of doing things, he swallowed back when he came to his mouth. Now it is very important to arrest Yang Yong as soon as possible, but as long as Yang Shumiao is in the police's field of vision, this problem will be solved sooner or later. In addition, the mysterious figure behind the leaves should also be investigated, Wu Shengnan said before that this person is good at using Gu, if he is really manipulating the leaves, then he should still be near Ping'an Town now.

Zhang Tianyi got up early the next morning, and in order to avoid a long night and dreams, Lin Fan didn't even eat breakfast and went back to catch the first flight.

Three hours later, they got off the plane, had a casual bite to eat at the airport, and hurried to the hospital.

Lin Keren's prevention work is still in place, some people from the city bureau are drawn to guard the various exits of the hospital, and there are many more traffic police on the streets near the hospital than before.

"Boss." Lin Keren greeted him and shouted.

Zhang Tianyi asked, "There's no problem, right?" ”

"It's no problem, it's been peaceful in the town and here these days." Lin Keren replied.

Zhang Tianyi didn't speak, according to his guess, Yang Yong would definitely do everything possible to take his daughter away after he came out, and then live the rest of his life incognito in a place where people rarely visit.

"Let's go up and have a look." Zhang Tianyi said.

Lin Keren took Zhang Tianyi to the hospital room of the poplar sapling, the poplar sapling on the hospital bed was the same as when Zhang Tianyi saw her for the first time, wearing a loose hospital gown, her face was pale, and there was no trace of blood on her mouth.

Lin Fan walked to the head of the bed and opened the eyelids of the poplar sapling with his hand, lowered his head and observed for a while and said: "It's still not any better, the symptoms are a bit similar to ALS, but it's not ALS, it's difficult to recover like her, at least the current medical level can't reach this height." ”

"That's right, the dean also said that this kind of condition is rare in the medical field." Lin Keren said.

Zhang Tianyi listened to the conversation between the two, and seemed to have grasped something important in his head.

The first is why did Yang Yong kill? That is, what is the motive for committing the crime?

Ye Zi was controlled by the hidden murderer and had to listen to the other party's words, and he thought that Yang Yong was too, but when Peng Zushan was below, the two of them didn't seem to deal with each other, which showed that Yang Yong was not very like a passive party, and Yang Yong left without caring about Ye Zi after killing Linghu. The leaves are for the small box in the iron and wood coffin, if Yang Yong is just to kill the spirit fox, why did he take the spirit fox's heart away?

Wait a minute!

Zhang Tianyi suddenly raised his head!

Could it be that Yang Yong is for the spirit fox heart?!

"Quick! Call and inform the people in the office to go to Yang Yong's house immediately! Zhang Tian ran out of the hospital as soon as he said such a sentence.

It must be for the spirit fox heart!

Zhang Tianyi is basically sure that when the poplar sapling was sick before, Yang Yong fed the poplar sapling the white fox heart, because the yang fire of the white fox heart can suppress the cold in the poplar sapling's body, but the white fox heart is just a medicine primer that can only temporarily suppress the condition of the poplar sapling, and cannot cure it radically, and only the spirit fox heart is more effective than the white fox heart!

And Yang Yong didn't know that Yang Shumiao was sent to the city hospital by the police, and the first time he got the Linghu heart, he must have returned to his home in Sanli Coffin Town!

On the way back, Zhang Tianyi sat like a needle felt, and drove all the way directly to the town entrance of Sanli Coffin Town, and when he got out of the car, he found that several police cars had been parked at the town entrance.

The narrow path into the town had been densely covered with thorny bushes, and Zhang Tianyi found many traces of pruning on it. The people of Sanli Coffin Town rarely go out, and it was the white fox who cursed them before and they would not leave the town for half a step at all, and during this time, even the purchase was called to let people from the outside world directly send it in, and only Yang Yong would enter and leave the town anytime and anywhere.

However, Zhang Tianyi did not have a trace of joy at the imminent arrest of the fugitive, these pruning marks were very messy, even bad, as if a path cut all the way with a machete, which was completely different from the pruning marks found last time.

"Hey, where are you guys?" Zhang Tianyi called Lin Fan, and he didn't know why he called Lin Fan.

"It's time to get off the highway, and you'll be there in about half an hour." Lin Fan said on the other side of the phone.

"Okay, stay safe." Zhang Tianyi hung up the phone after speaking, and he walked towards the town along the road he had carved out.

Yang Yong's house was in the east of the town, where there were very few residents, and when Zhang Tianyi arrived, he found that a cordon had been set up around his house.

Several policemen next to him saw Zhang Tianyi, so they came over and said hello: "Zhang Suo." ”

Zhang Tian nodded and asked, "What's going on?" Haven't caught the killer yet? ”

A few policemen, you look at me, I look at you, and then they said in a slur manner: "Zhang Suo, the murderer is inside, but ...... It's dead though......"

"Dead?" Zhang Tianyi was stunned for a moment, and after he reacted, he crossed the cordon and ran directly in.

Zhang Tianyi pushed open the door with a "bang", and what caught his eye was a big red coffin, and he ran to the coffin to find Yang Yong lying quietly and peacefully.

Lin Fan didn't come, Zhang Tianyi didn't dare to check the body at will, he took a general look and found that there was no blood on Yang Yong's body, and there were no wounds on the exposed skin.

Zhang Tianyi felt unbelievable, how could Yang Yong die?

Although the cause of death is still uncertain, Zhang Tianyi feels that Yang Yong cannot commit suicide, and it is impossible for him, a father, to leave his children alone.

But if it is said that he killed, Yang Yong's skills are obvious to both himself and Lin Fan, unless he is a person with high-intensity combat training, no one can easily approach Yang Yong.
