Wu Shengnan felt that her eyelids were a little heavy, and her whole body was sore as if she had fallen apart, she frowned and tried to open her eyes, and then found that her face was wet and water was sliding down her neck, and she looked left and right to see that there was a figure in the afterglow who was drawing a parabola in the bushes with his back to her.

"Bang!"

Zhang Tianyi hit the back of his head, and when he turned around, he saw Wu Shengnan looking at him angrily.

Zhang Tianyi shuddered, quickly closed the zipper and said, "This is how you repay your life-saving benefactor?" ”

Wu Shengnan glared at Zhang Tian for a moment or two without answering, and asked, "What is this place?" ”

"You know this better than I do." Zhang Tianyi didn't explain too much, because he knew that Wu Shengnan's appearance was by no means an accident.

Wu Shengnan frowned and ignored it, she opened her backpack and groped in it for a while, her face was a little ugly, as if she had lost something, and then she went back to the sedan chair to rummage through it.

"Are you looking for this?" Zhang Tianyi raised the camera in his hand behind him.

"Give it back!" Wu Shengnan stretched out his hand and came over to grab it, but was dodged by Zhang Tianyi.

Wu Shengnan's tone was slightly angry: "What do you want?" ”

Zhang Tianyi pretended to say: "It's not impossible to give it back to you, but you must at least show some sincerity, right?" “

Wu Shengnan snorted and didn't speak, Zhang Tian held the camera while walking and looked at the pictures inside and said, "Seriously, reporter Wu, now I have to consider re-examining our relationship." ”

Wu Shengnan kept up with Zhang Tianyi's pace and said in a suppressed tone, "What do you want to know?" Walking the dirt gate or the curse of the white fox? ”

Zhang Tianyi smiled and shook his head: "No, I'm not interested in those now, I just want to know what your identity is?" ”

Wu Shengnan was about to open his mouth when he was interrupted by Zhang Tianyi's wave, Zhang Tianyi turned on the flashlight and saw a mark left by Lin Fan on the ground, stepped forward to look at it and said: "Don't tell me that you are just a reporter from Huaxing Society, I don't think any reporter will come to this poor ravine to collect press releases, of course, I won't believe that you are here to help us solve the case." ”

"Are you done?" Wu Shengnan did not answer Zhang Tianyi's question, but looked at Zhang Tianyi calmly.

Zhang Tianyi smiled and said, "You can choose not to answer the question just now, but can you tell me why you are here so late?" ”

Wu Shengnan said indifferently: "Isn't it okay to come to this mountain to cool off when you're full?" ”

"Reporter Wu, you are really joking, do you look like you're here for a walk?" Zhang Tianyi said unhurriedly.

Wu Shengnan lowered his head and his face gradually sank, and said: "Director Zhang is so young to have such an achievement, it is indeed a great ability, but how can you conclude that I am here for a purpose?" Just by your illogical reasoning? ”

At this point, Zhang Tianyi no longer hid it, and directly said: "If I guessed correctly, the martial artist is here for the White Fox Den, right?" Although I don't know exactly what the relationship between you and the white fox is, it can be seen from the photos you have taken these days that you have been preparing for a long time. ”

"Ridiculous, what's wrong with the photos I took?" Wu Shengnan said with his arms crossed.

Zhang Tianyi turned his head to look at Wu Shengnan and said: "The hundreds of pictures in this camera are all pictures of nearby mountains and mountains, it is estimated that you have run a lot of places these days, and you don't have to say anything about your homework, but you still underestimate the ability of the white fox, otherwise you wouldn't have followed their path halfway." ”

"And when Moriko died, you said that the murderer arranged the crime scene like that in order to retrieve the soul, according to your statement, the hammer stone is impenetrable to yin and yang, and you can take Moriko's yang soul out of the bullet hole in his chest, but you ignore the coffin nail in Moriko's throat. I didn't understand before, the murderer's action of putting a coffin nail in Senzi's throat didn't destroy his own deliberately arranged five elements, but before that night I had a dream inexplicably, in the dream Senzi could only squirm his throat and couldn't speak, I guess you really didn't know the role of the coffin nail at the time, but the next day when I went to the police station, you said that I had a dead smell, I guess you already knew the murderer's intentions at that time, that is, I was afraid that Senzi would tell me who the murderer was through another form. ”

Zhang Tianyi smiled and continued: "Or, the murderer was afraid that Senzi would tell me his name, so he nailed a coffin nail in his throat to make him speechless." ”

Wu Shengnan still looked cold after hearing this, and said: "I didn't expect Director Zhang to be a policeman who still believes in feudal superstition. ”

Wu Shengnan deliberately bit the word police very hard, and looked at Zhang Tianyi directly after speaking.

Zhang Tianyi was not angry and still said with a smile: "People's beliefs will always change with experience, but don't worry, I don't believe that Wu Reporter will have anything to do with the murderer." ”

Wu Shengnan didn't speak, and then listened to Zhang Tianyi continue: "I have a question that I am very curious, I wonder if the martial arts reporter has heard the name Xu Huanian?" ”

After Zhang Tianyi finished speaking, he stared at Wu Shengnan's eyes, Wu Shengnan's face did not change, and he said, "I don't know." ”

"Don't recognize?" Zhang Tian took a puff of his cigarette and said: "Then let me be more careful, Xu Huanian, a professor of the Department of History in Beijing, was sent by the state to lead an archaeological team to Bashu in 1997 to excavate the Tumen tombs, but strangely only three years later, he suddenly disappeared mysteriously at the turn of the millennium." ”

At this time, Wu Shengnan's face darkened, but he still said indifferently: "I said that I don't know." ”

Although Wu Shengnan flatly denied it, Zhang Tianyi still saw a trace of fluctuation in her eyes. When he picked up the camera before, Zhang Tianyi was guessing Wu Shengnan's identity, because her appearance was too coincidental, and she appeared when the case encountered shackles and involved walking through the earth gate.

Of course, Zhang Tianyi would not believe that the photo of the Tumen sacrifice was taken by her, not to mention that the shooting place was taken in the tropical rainforest, and the local environment and temperature were harsh, so it was said that the tribe of Tumen had been derailed from society and acted secretly, how could she capture the photo of the sacrifice.

Lin Fan had investigated Wu Shengnan's background identity before, her first major was history, and the news media was her second major, and it happened to be the year Xu Huanian disappeared.

On the surface, it seems that the two of them have no intersection, but Zhang Tianyi is more inclined to Xu Huanian once served as the head of the history class of Wu Shengnan, and the final investigation confirmed this, Xu Huanian was a professor of history at Guangfu University before 97 years, but when the Tumen tomb group was discovered, he was suddenly transferred to Peking University, and the newspaper reported in the future that it was the archaeological team from Beijing who went to excavate the Tumen tomb group, and it was too hasty to go back and forth during this period. It seems to be a deliberate attempt to tell people that it was the Beijing archaeological team that participated in the excavation.

As for the sacrificial picture, only she knows how it got to Wu Shengnan and why she changed her major, and of course Zhang Tianyi is not interested in knowing this.

Zhang Tianyi didn't make a fuss about this matter again, just dusted off his cigarette ash and said: "I don't care what purpose you came to us for, and no matter what relationship you have with other people, you have your purpose and I have mine, we don't interfere with each other, and I hope to help each other when necessary." ”

Wu Shengnan lowered his head as if to gauge Zhang Tianyi's proposal, and after a while said, "You can return the camera to me now, right?" ”

Zhang Tianyi smiled and said, "Of course." ”

Although Wu Shengnan didn't say yes, Zhang Tianyi knew that she would not refuse, she had been led by her before, and this time she always pulled back a game, although she didn't know what her purpose was, but as a woman, her strength was always a little thin.

Wu Shengnan took the camera and hung it around his neck, and walked to the front alone, Zhang Tianyi called twice, and found that she was probably angry with herself just now.

It wasn't until Wu Shengnan stopped that Zhang Tianyi stepped forward and found that Lin Fan's mark was gone.

Zhang Tianyi looked around and smelled a stench unique to white foxes, and then said: "It should be around here, be careful not to follow the path of that beast again." ”

Wu Shengnan didn't speak with a straight face, and he didn't even look at Zhang Tianyi who directly picked up the bushes and disappeared into his field of vision.

Zhang Tianyi hurriedly chased after him, and then the soles of his feet loosened, and his body fell freely with a "whoosh".

Zhang Tianyi covered his buttocks and swayed and climbed up, looked up and found that there was a hole on it, and couldn't help but secretly curse this group of beasts for being sick and repairing the cave to the ground, causing him to fall in from top to bottom every time.

Zhang Tianyi suddenly remembered Wu Shengnan in the process of complaining, so he hurriedly looked around, only to find that she was standing silently behind him.

"Are you alright?" Zhang Tianyi asked.

Wu Shengnan glanced at Zhang Tianyi and seemed to be laughing at his hypocrisy just now, Zhang Tianyi was bored with himself and simply shut up, but he thought to himself that you were not cut off by the white fox halfway just now.

Zhang Tianyi adjusted the position of his backpack and slowly walked into the passage with a flashlight, he followed the mark left by Lin Fan and stepped forward, and Wu Shengnan also followed behind with a cautious face.

"That's right." Zhang Tianyi suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "Do you know what March 3 represents?" ”

Wu Shengnan was not silent this time, and replied in the back: "In some areas, it is called Halloween. ”

"Halloween? Wasn't that on July 15? Zhang Tianyi was surprised.

Wu Shengnan explained: "Not only is the Midyear Festival called the Ghost Festival, but also the Qingming Festival in March and April every year, the Winter Clothes Festival on the first day of October, and the Shangsi Festival on March 3, these are all Ghost Festivals. However, only the Qingming Festival and the Zhongyuan Festival have been handed down, and only a few other regions will still regard it as a festival. ”

After hearing this, Zhang Tianyi hesitated and asked, "Where are the few areas you are talking about?" ”

Wu Shengnan stopped and looked at Zhang Tianyi and said, "Bashu." ”
