Chapter 003: The Adventure Begins
"Master, you old man, can you change your name?" Knowing that it was useless, Ying Chun still had to remind him.
"You came on your own?"
"How can it be me?" Ying Chun didn't hide it, "There's another one outside the door, do you want to come in?" ”
Ying Chun naturally couldn't invite him, and Zhao Banjin knew the old guy's temper. Everyone has already gone to the door, and if you go and invite it yourself, I'm afraid that the old guy won't come in.
"Go make tea."
Telling Ying Chun to make tea, Zhao Banjin immediately walked out of the door.
……
Guizhou is mountainous, and there are some mountains that humans have not set foot in. The place where Chen Keng is going this time is this poor mountain and evil ridge.
That day, Ying Chun dealt with the grievances between the master and the uncle, and began to prepare the ticket. After arriving at the destination, rest for the night, prepare some necessary things by the way, and the next morning everyone is ready to leave.
"Brother Chen, let me introduce you, this is Zhao Lao, this is Chen Lao. Both of them are professionals in this industry, and they were known as half a catty and eight taels back then. ”
I've long heard that Ying Chun said that he would find a few lieutenants who touch gold, but now it's not these two.
Although he has never been in contact with that line, he is still aware of the reputation of the two in the industry through some understanding in the past two days.
"Chen Keng, private detective, part-time barrister." Stretched out his hand to shake the two elders in turn, and Chen Keng was embarrassed not to shake it when they stretched out their hands.
To be polite, Chen Keng introduced Mirel this time, "This is my daughter, Miler." ”
At the moment, Millaire is just a little girl who is more than ten years old, and Chen Keng thinks about it and continues to introduce Millaire to others as his daughter.
When I came back from the island country, it was already June, and my hometown had a month off, and now it was July.
It's the perfect weather to go out, especially when venturing into the mountains.
Each person has a package, and after the distribution is completed, Ying Chun said to Chen Keng this time; "Brother Chen, check to see if there is anything that needs to be added."
There was a whole big bag of things, mostly food and water, and some emergency equipment.
Just a cursory look, Chen Keng nodded; "It's not bad, but these things can only support us for about half a month. According to what you said, it can be done in a week or so, and the things are well prepared. ”
"It's not bad, just be prepared for everything, just in case."
Ying Chun was indeed very thoughtful, and this time it was not these people who went with him. There are only two Chen Keng and Mi Laier on Chen Keng's side, and Mi Lael has to follow, and Chen Keng can't help it.
On Ying Chun's side, Ying Chun, Wu Yan, Zhou Zhou, and two old guys, Zhao Banjin and Chen Baliang. In addition, there are two people who went with them, two people, a man and a woman, were specially invited by Yingchun to resist luggage, the male was Xiao Li, and the female was called Xiao Wei.
Probably these are the personnel, but before leaving, Ying Chun received another phone call.
"We're going to have one more going with us this time." Hanging up the phone, Ying Chun explained to everyone.
After a while, the person Ying Chun said rushed here, and he looked like a handsome young man in his early twenties, and his appearance was also somewhat similar to Ying Chun.
"This is my cousin, Yingdong."
Since he is Yingchun's cousin, everyone naturally has no reason to be unwelcome. Multiple people can always have more security, not to mention that the place where they are going this time is not a very safe place.
……
"Everyone, do you have to think about it, once you go in, you can't go back?" Ying Chun pointed behind him, "The mountains behind have never been set foot on for many years. There may be poisonous snakes inside, and there may also be fierce beasts! There may even be some ghosts or something like that. ”
Ying Chun said that he could only say this, after all, only when the matter was said to be serious could it be effective.
Sure enough, when Ying Chun said this, the two girls were a little timid, "How can it be as terrifying as you say, at most, it is just a little inconvenient." "After Wu Yan said it, Zhou Zhou also said;" It's just a disguised experience of life, and I think we should be able to adapt to it. ”
Wu Yan is a young man, and he has an unusual relationship, so it's up to him to break that relationship first.
Zhou Zhou is a colleague of Yingchun's company, and when he heard that Yingchun was going on an adventure, Zhou Zhou came with him without thinking about it. Of course, Zhou Zhou can be allowed to follow because there is a gambling contract between the two.
To put it bluntly, it is a sentence, Zhou Zhou is not worried about Wu Yan!
Wu Yan is Ying Chun's hair, and Zhou Zhou's relationship with Ying Chun is also very close, the two have been classmates since junior high school, and by the end of college, the two were in the same company.
Both girls have already expressed their positions, and everyone naturally has nothing to fear.
As for Miler, he is not worried at all, with Chen Keng by his side, Milyle never worries about his safety.
"We're going to talk about the ugly things ahead, and the place we're going to this time is dangerous. I hope everyone will listen to Zhao Lao and Chen Lao in everything, after all, both of them are experts in this field. ”
"I'm fine." Chen Keng was the first to express his position.
Following Chen Keng, everyone also expressed their attitudes one by one, "I'm fine." ”
"Since everyone is okay, let's go." Ying Chun was the first to walk forward, and everyone behind followed Ying Chun's pace.
Behind Ying Chun are Zhao Banjin and Chen Baliang, and behind are Wu Yan and Zhou Zhou. In the end, Chen Keng and Miler, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Ying Dong walked side by side with Chen Keng.
"Listen to my brother, you're a private detective?"
"Not bad." Chen Keng nodded.
"I didn't expect that there are private detectives like that on TV in our country." Ying Dong was obviously very curious about the identity of Chen Keng's private detective, "Since you are a private detective, can I ask you a few questions?" ”
Without waiting for Chen Keng to reply, Yingdong continued; "It's not an easy task to be here this time, this ...... ten years ago"
Quickly reaching out to cover Ying Dong's mouth, Chen Keng made a silent gesture to Ying Dong.
Ying Chun explained very clearly before, and the things about ten years ago must not be mentioned in front of people. Especially in front of Zhao Banjin and Chen Baliang.
What is the specific reason for this, Chen Keng is not very clear. There is a faint guess that Chen Keng thinks that the two must have something to do with what happened ten years ago! In other words, ten years ago, the two of them took Ying Chun's father to explore here, and ten years later, they took Ying Chun back to this place again.
It was already close to afternoon when everyone entered the mountain, and at the beginning, the mountain road was not too difficult to walk, and the mountain road behind was obviously getting more and more difficult, which just confirmed the saying that the mountain road was rugged.
"Let's take a break." The first Yingchun stopped, and everyone naturally followed.
After stopping, Ying Chun casually found a place to sit down, holding an old map in his hand to look at. The distance is not too far, and Chen Keng can naturally see the general appearance of the map.
Walking forward, Chen Keng saw that this was a hand-drawn map, which was a bit old.
"This was handed over to me by my father before he died. It is also a treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation by our winners. Ying Chun explained for Chen Keng.
"The tomb you are talking about...... The treasure is based on this? ”
How to say that it is also the tomb of Yingchun's ancestors, in total, Chen Keng thinks that it is better to say that the treasure is better.
"This hand-drawn map is truly something that has been passed down from generation to generation for our winners." Yingdong came up and said; "I've heard about this map since I was a kid, so just follow the path of this map. It is very likely that we will be able to find the treasure left by our Win clan, but of course, whether we can find it depends on luck. ”
Chen Keng understands that this really depends on luck, after all, the age is too old. And what Ying Chun has in his hand is not a real map, it should be a copy copied later. But if it is copied, there should be some discrepancies between it and the original.
"Brother Chen wants to watch it, it's okay to watch it together." Ying Chun does not shy away from suspicion.
"Is that okay?"
"Absolutely." Ying Chun nodded, and then said to everyone; "Let's take a look."
There is great strength in numbers, and this is not false at all. Everyone gathered up and immediately began to discuss, "We should be walking here now." Wu Yan casually pointed to a place on the map and nodded, "According to the coordinates on the map, after we cross the river in front of us, we will go this way." ”
"It's hard to cross the river." Zhou Zhou was a little worried, "I don't know if there is a bridge." ”
"What kind of place is this, how can there be a ship."
"There will be no boats, we can only rely on ourselves." Like Zhao Banjin's meaning, Chen Baliang was not worried at all, "It will take some time to reach that river, and I will probably be able to get there tomorrow, and I won't be able to think about this matter for the time being." ”
"Listening to Elder Chen's words, could it be that Elder Chen has been here before?"
Chen Keng's words made Chen Baliang's face pale, this was just a blink of an eye, and then Chen Baliang responded indifferently; "I did come to this place ten years ago, but it was for nothing."
"Ten years ago? It's been so long, so Chen Lao Ke still remembers who came here back then? ”
didn't say anything, obviously didn't want to talk about what happened ten years ago, why is this Chen Keng so uninteresting? Glaring at Chen Keng, Chen Lao immediately smiled, "Don't mention the past." ”
Chen Keng's purpose in doing this is naturally for a reason, to be entrusted by people and to be loyal to people. had promised Ying Chun that he would take some things from the mouths of the two guys ten years ago, and Chen Keng would naturally press forward step by step. Although Ying Chun didn't say it very clearly, Chen Keng also understood that this matter was very important to Ying Chun!
Just looking at Ying Chun's current expression, it can be seen that Ying Chun is very nervous now.
Ying Chun also said before that Zhao Banjin is the matter of Ying Chun's master, and Ying Chun is close to Zhao Banjin must be Yingchun's goal. That purpose was the same as Chen Keng's previous speculation, accounting for a high probability that Yingchun's father and the two of them had been to this place ten years ago.
According to this conclusion, Zhao Banjin and Chen Baliang both knew that the person ten years ago was Yingchun's father, and they knew that they didn't say a word about what happened ten years ago. I don't want to mention it, why do you want to return to this place with Yingchun? Isn't that a contradiction?
The only reason that can be explained is that Zhao Banjin and Chen Baliang have an unknown purpose.
