Chapter 434: The Enigmatic Swamp
"Team Week......
"Old Zhou ......"
……
The moment Zhou Rong threw himself into the swamp, I heard a continuous burst of exclamations around me.
I don't know what happened after that.
But when I arrived, it was already evening, and I was lying on a military quilt.
There was a lot of looming flashlights around, and I was surrounded by fog. The flashlights were like fireflies flying in the air in the night.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I heard two familiar shouts: "Brother Xiaolin, are you ......awake?"
"Xiaolin, are you alright?"
Who else could the two people in front of them be besides Zhang Yihan and Chen Ye.
Although I was still very weak at this time, as soon as I woke up, I thought back to the scene before I fainted, and asked with some concern: "What about Brother Rong?" ”
"Brother Xiaolin, Brother Zhou Rong is gone, woo woo......" Chen Ye threw himself on me and cried.
Zhang Yihan glanced at us, turned around and walked to the side.
Look at her like that. It seems to have a sense that out of sight is pure. Being able to do this step is actually very good for Zhang Yihan. If it had been before, no matter what the situation was now, she would have been angry. She is a person who can't hold half a grain of sand in her eyes, and how can she stand to watch others lying in my arms.
It stands to reason that Chen Ye's chest is very big, and I should feel very comfortable lying on me, but I feel that I am pressed by her so much, I just feel that I can't breathe.
I coughed continuously: "Ahem, cough, cough......"
But she hugged my neck and cried so much that she didn't care about my feelings.
Chen Ye is also a person who attaches great importance to love and righteousness. Speaking of which, she is quite similar to me. Although on the surface she still seems to be a child who has not grown up, I know that she is a very principled person, and she will treat her well.
Zhou Rong used to stay by Lao Chen's side for three years, during which he and Chen Ye must have met a lot, I have already seen the brother-sister relationship between them, Zhou Rong can do a lot of things for Chen Ye, and Chen Ye can also do a lot of things for Zhou Rong that ordinary people can't do.
After hearing my repeated cough, Zhang Yihan, who had already avoided it, hurriedly ran back: "Ye Ziye, hurry up, you Brother Xiaolin don't want you to lose your breath......"
Zhang Yihan pulled Chen Ye away from me.
Chen Ye got up from me and wiped the tears on his face: "Brother Xiaolin, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. ”
I waved my hand. I didn't say anything, the main thing is that I feel a little tightness in my chest now, and I'm really out of breath.
"Sister Xiaohan, let's talk, I'll go see if Brother Zhou Rong has found it?" After Chen Ye finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Although Chen Ye seems a little childish on the surface and doesn't seem to be very sensible, she is actually a very understanding girl. This has always been the evaluation of her in my heart. It can be said that when I turned my mind from Zhang Yihan to her in the past, this is what I liked the most.
At that time, Zhang Yihan was very rude and willful, very self-righteous, centered on himself in everything, and never empathized to think about others. In that case, when I met someone like Chen Ye, my feelings would suddenly change direction, which is also a reasonable thing. Hold the history of the garbage.
Of course. At this time, it was not the time to think about this, I heard Chen Ye say to see if Zhou Rong had found it, and my attention suddenly returned to Zhou Rong: "Xiao Han, what's wrong with Brother Rong, what's wrong?" ”
"He, he jumped into the swamp, and then, and then he ......"
"What?" I got up from the ground at once: "He didn't get up after he jumped?" ”
I thought that although Zhou Rong was sometimes a little impulsive in doing something, he was not the kind of person who was very brainless, but I didn't expect him to really not get up after jumping down.
What I didn't expect was that what shocked me even more was still to come, because at this moment, Zhang Yihan said to me again: "Not only him, but Zhao Xiaotian and Brother Kui also went down." ”
"What? They all jumped into the swamp? "By the time I said this, I was struggling to get up from the ground.
"Hmm......" Zhang Yihan nodded silently: "Now all the police forces are trying their best to find a way to find them, and the leaders of the Ministry of Public Security have made clear instructions." said that a few of them are great heroes, heroes, and they must live to see people die and see corpses, but unfortunately, hundreds of people have spent more than ten hours here, and now they haven't come up with any way. Baoshan City has already transferred several excavators in, but the troops are building roads, and the excavators are already under the mountain for the time being, and they can't drive in......"
"How so, let's go over and see......" I said and walked in the direction of the many lights in the distance, but after a few steps, I fell. Because my feet were pierced by iron nails, it should have been Jiang Wenshan's dose of antibodies that worked, and now as long as I move a little, I will have a sharp pain that pierces my heart.
"Be careful." Zhang Yihan hugged my waist from behind and helped me up, and then half-hugged me and helped me walk in the direction of the swamp.
When I walked to the edge of the swamp, I saw that there were many police officers and armed police officers using washbasins and buckets to clean up the mud in the swamp, as Zhang Yihan said, as if they were planning to dig up all the swamp.
The scene can be said to be dirty and messy, the sludge still contains a foul smell, the air is full of this unpleasant smell, I was already a little out of breath, as soon as I smelled this smell, I felt that I couldn't even stand on my feet.
After I watched the scene for a while, Zhang Yihan said to me: "Xiaolin, why don't I ask a few people to send you out first!" ”
"What about Jiang Wenshan and Meng Jie, did you see them?" I suddenly remembered that Zhang Yihan only said that Zhou Rong, Zhao Xiaotian, and Li Dakui all went to the swamp, but I remember that when I fainted, Jiang Wenshan and Meng Jie should have been at the scene.
"Jiang Wenshan and Meng Jie? I, I didn't see them when I led people to you! Zhang Yihan said.
"Where did you find me?" I said blankly.
"That's right, when I brought someone here, I happened to hear someone calling for help in this area, and I ran over to take a look only to find that Zhao Xiaotian and Li Dakui were sinking into the swamp, they said that you were captured by Qin Zheng, and asked us to hurry up and save you. I only spoke a few words to them, and before I could save them, they fell in. ”
Zhang Yihan shook his head and continued: "When they fell in, the three of them held hands and fell into it together, but I didn't see Zhou Rong's appearance, because when I came, his head was already trapped in the mud. Zhao Xiaotian held Brother Kui's hand with one hand, and held the other hand with the other hand I don't know who it was, but that person should be Zhou Rong and there would be no mistake. ”
"Why are you so sure of Zhou Rong?" I asked.
"Because the moment Zhao Xiaotian finally fell, he also said a word......"
"What?"
He scolded the owner of that hand, damn, Lao Zhou, I said, tell you not to act impulsively, you just don't listen, okay?" Zhang Yi said coldly.
"You really didn't see Jiang Wenshan and Meng Jie when you came?" I asked again.
"I don't see it." Zhang Yihan shook his head and said: "After I saw Zhao Xiaotian and them trapped, on the one hand, I asked them to find a way to save people immediately, and on the other hand, I led people to save you in the direction that Zhao Xiaotian told me." Later, we chased Qin Zheng in the mountains for seven or eight hours before catching up. ”
"Qin Zheng?" I looked at Zhang Yihan suspiciously.
"Qin Zheng seems to have been stimulated by something and went crazy, he carried you all the way and ran while shouting, 'Lin Zhenguo, your son is in my hands, you hurry up and give it to me'......"
"Then where is Qin Zheng now?" I asked with some concern.
"I've sent someone to escort me back to the Public Security Bureau." Zhang Yi said coldly.
"Oh......" I nodded.
Hearing Zhang Yihan say that, I finally understood the general idea of the matter.
It is estimated that after Zhou Rong jumped down at that time, they saw Zhou Rong trapped, so Zhao Xiaotian and Li Dakui hurriedly rushed over to save people. Then only me, Jiang Wenshan, and Meng Jie were left on the shore.
After leaving, Jiang Wenshan and Meng Jie should have thought of other ways to save people, so they left the scene, maybe after they left, Qin Zheng appeared, and then I was kidnapped by Qin Zheng.
However, according to what Zhang Yihan said, I have been in a coma for more than ten hours, and it is already three or four o'clock in the morning.
Thinking of this, I suddenly remembered the more than ten corpses that I saw in the swamp before I fainted, and Zhou Rong went to these corpses.
"Did you see more than a dozen other corpses in the swamp when you came?" I asked again.
"Nope." Zhang Yihan shook his head blankly: "There are indeed a lot of corpses found in the mountains, but there are no corpses in the swamp......"
"No, no......" I suddenly realized that something was obviously wrong.
So I immediately asked, "Xiao Han, do you remember the exact time you arrived at this swamp?" ”
"Remember, we couldn't find you at that time, and we were all about to die of death, so I kept looking at the time, I remember that when I saw Zhao Xiaotian and the others, it was at six o'clock yesterday evening......
"Six o'clock in the evening?" I exclaimed and interrupted Zhang Yihan's words.
"Uh-huh, what's wrong?" Zhang Yihan said blankly.
"Six o'clock in the evening, that is to say, the time when you found Zhao Xiaotian and them was three hours after Zhou Rong jumped down, because when we chased here yesterday afternoon, I remember that I looked at the time, it was just a little after three o'clock. How could they have been in the swamp for more than three hours. "It suddenly seemed strange to me.
Before, I thought that Zhao Xiaotian and Li Dakui would fall into the swamp together because they saved Zhou Rong, but now it seems that this matter is not so simple.
Zhou Rong was not stunned, although he was impulsive, but in that situation at that time, there was nothing worth him jumping into the mud so impulsively. Zhao Xiaotian and Li Dakui are not brainless people, it is even more impossible for them to rush over to save people with their bare hands after Zhou Rong fell in, they are not so stupid.
But why did the three of them fall into it together?
Also, where did the dozen or so corpses I saw before I faint go?
I'm not very familiar with the swamp, but I've been thrown into it and almost died, so I know a little bit about it.
I distinctly remember that the corpses I saw before I fainted were all lying flat or lying flat in the swamp, and since they were dead and would not move, it stands to reason that they should not all be trapped in it.
By the way, the dozen or so corpses were in the middle of the swamp at that time, how did they end up there?
Thinking of this, I suddenly remembered that Liu Zhiqiang fell into the swamp back then......
Could it be that there is some hidden passage in the swamp?
At this moment, Zhang Yihan suddenly said something that coincided with what I thought: "Xiaolin, do you know why you spent so much money to see people and corpses this time?" ”
"Why?" I asked.
"Actually, it's all because of me." Zhang Yihan said: "Do you remember when Liu Zhiqiang fell into this swamp a year ago?" ”
"You mean there's a trap in this swamp?" I asked.
"Well, and you just said that Jiang Wenshan and Meng Jie were also at the scene at the time, I think Jiang Wenshan should have been taken by Meng Jie to save people somewhere else. It has always been a mystery that Liu Zhiqiang didn't die back then, if there is really any secret passage in this swamp, Liu Zhiqiang knows it, and it is impossible for her Meng Jie not to know. Zhang Yihan is sure of authenticity.
"Makes sense." I nodded.
At this moment, a long sigh suddenly came from not far behind me: "Hey, such a toss is just a waste of money, and no matter how much manpower and material resources are spent, it will be in vain." ”
"Ge Lao!" I exclaimed, turned to look back.
I saw that in the fog, a white-haired old man wearing a military coat was slowly walking out of the thick fog.
"Old Ge, why are you here?" Zhang Yihan was also a little surprised.
"Xiao Zhang, go back and tell your father, ask him to report to the above, remove everyone, don't waste your efforts in vain. Look at how tired these children are from tossing and turning all night without sleep......" Ge Lao stretched out his hand and pointed to the police and armed police soldiers around him who were constantly transporting mud to the shore.
"Old Ge, how do you know it's a waste of effort?" I asked.
"Do you know what this Lotus Mountain is?" Ge Lao said expressionlessly.
