Chapter 115: Players
Yu Ming took a bus back to Khon Kaen early the next morning, and then took a bus to Taman County. It was only on the morning of the third day that he arrived in Taman County. Yu Ming calculated the time, and he didn't seem to have much time left. He didn't dare to rest, so he spent money to hire a private car and rushed directly from Thman County to Haoman Town.
Fortunately, the road was smooth, and at noon, Yu Ming arrived at Haoman Town smoothly. This is a small village in the jungle, and it is unknown what Weishenme called the town. However, even in this village of more than 400 people, two temples can be seen directly.
When Yu Ming got out of the car, the first thing he saw was not a local, but two foreigners who were sitting on a big stone at the entrance of the town and drinking. The foreigner, who was quite handsome and had an open khaki shirt, shouted, "Hey, Japanese? ”
"Chinese." Yu Ming replied.
"Haha, Chinese." The two foreigners laughed. A foreigner learning Chinese asked, "Do you want an invoice?" haha。 ”
"That one is called a big card, and that one is called a small card. Ignore them, you're not the first person they laugh at, or rather, they're laughing at everybody. A thirty-five-year-old blue-eyed blonde woman came over and said.
Yu Ming looked at the woman, who was 1.72 meters tall, looked quite good, and her face was quite kind. But Yu Ming would rather drink with the size card than get too close to the woman. Because what the woman's eyes showed did not match her words. This gaze is observing oneself, not ordinary observation, but a vain attempt to understand oneself directly from one's own eyes. This artistic conception is difficult to explain, but Yu Ming felt the woman's aggression towards him. Yu Ming stretched out his hand and said, "Yu Ming." ”
"Betis." Betis shook hands with Yu Ming and said, "There is only one hotel in the town, just five hundred meters ahead. ”
“xiexie。” Yu Ming added: "You are a good person. ”
"Willing to help."
Yu Ming walked towards the hotel, and most of the people in the town were farmers, farmers who planted fragrant rice. That is, the supermarket can see that the price of a pound of rice is more than a dozen yuan. The villagers were friendly, and Yu Ming nodded to them. They returned the salute with their hands together.
Push the door into the hotel, the first floor of the hotel is a bar and restaurant, eight people are seated at seven tables, and none of them look locals. Blonde, brunette, white, red, black, white, yellow. They looked at Yu Ming very rudely. A local man in his fifties at the bar looked at Yu Ming while wiping his cup, and had no intention of coming forward to receive him.
At the table closest to Yu Ming, a blonde young man held a bottle of wine. The man fell asleep on the table. Yu Ming walked up to him and said, "Hello, is there still a room?" "Pretending to be drunk. Unless it's all squinting or cross-eyed, when everyone looks at themselves, including the local male bartender, they all look at the young man with a vague look. Others are not treated. Obviously this young man is the key.
The young man sat up slowly, his baby-faced. It's nice to laugh at. The young man gestured to the chair in front of him. Yu Ming sat down. The young man took out a few folded pieces of paper from his pocket. Then he looked for it and asked, "Yu Ming?" ”
"Yes."
"My name is Ben." The young man unfolded a piece of paper, took out another pen and threw it on the table, and said, "Write down the address where the body is to be returned, and then contact the person urgently." ”
"Is there any insurance money?" Yu Ming asked.
"Nope."
"That's not needed." Yu Ming replied.
Ben was stunned: "Are you sure that the body is disposed of by us?" ”
Yu Ming smiled: "I believe that you will try to keep me safe as much as possible in order not to dispose of the corpse." ”
“haha。” Ben laughed: "No girlfriend? ”
"Nope."
"What about the parents?"
"I don't think you can find it."
Ben smiled: "Don't provoke me, I won't help you find it." Although I can definitely find it. ”
"Impossible." Yu Ming shook his head.
Ben's pupils immediately dilated, and he held back a sentence for a while. Finally relented and went back: "The information is registered, by the way, there is no one I can't find." ”
"Yes, I believe. Key. I want to take a shower. ”
"......" Ben stretched out a finger and thought for a while, "I have searched for thirty-seven people, and I have found a total of thirty-one people and six corpses. One of the bodies was two thousand kilometers away with its head and feet, spanning three countries. ”
Yu Ming asked: "Weishenme, everyone is here?" And where is the Temple of Ragu? ”
Ben Dao: "Three people have already found the temple of Ragu, and this side is either new or not found at all. The key is to you, 209. ”
“xiexie。” Yu Ming went upstairs with his luggage, ignoring Ben's bragging.
The room was still relatively clean, and Yu Ming sorted out the suitcase first and put some necessary items into the travel bag. Then close the door and place a scrap of paper on the door. I took a travel bag and took a shower. If you read it right, there was a little man more than 1.6 meters downstairs just now who was very interested in his luggage.
Yu Ming came out of the shower, wiped his hair and walked to the door, the confetti was already on the ground. Looking at the suitcase, it's almost impossible to see that someone has flipped through it. Yu Ming went downstairs with his bag on his back, and ordered at the bar: "Excuse me, whatever you eat." ”
"......" locals refer to a raw steak.
“OK!” Yu Ming looked left and right to see if there were any vacant seats, so he sat down on a large table. Compared to others, the big guys are less aggressive and unguarded.
The big man squeezed his fists and his muscles burst out of his vest: "Hey, there's someone here." ”
Yu Ming nodded: "You're Russian, right?" ”
"How do you know?" The big guy asked in surprise.
"I think only Russian soil can breed Hercules."
The big man relaxed his muscles and said, "Of course, the Chinese? ”
"Yes." Yu Ming stretched out his hand: "Yu Ming." ”
"Ivan."
Even the name is so good, you are 10,000, and I am 2. Yu Ming and Ivan quickly became acquainted. To Yu Ming's surprise, Ivan is not only a strong man, but also a computer expert. Yu Ming looked at the pair of bear paws that could completely cover the keyboard, and was very curious about how he typed.
Yu Ming was not mistaken, Ivan is a relatively kind person among the people here. Strictly speaking, it's a bit nerdy. Soon Yu Ming understood the specific situation. Ben wasn't lying, it was true that three people had already reached the Temple of Ragu and found the Tiger. But what puzzled the players here was that the locals didn't know anything about the Ragu Temple.
Yu Ming also knew the content of the first level of assessment, and several contestants asked for a room with a local at the bar, instead of looking for a room. As a result, he was kicked out of the hotel by the 'angry' Ben. The two brothers of Daka and Xiaoka in Zhenkou are two of them. They can only live in the homes of the villagers.
Ben took the wine bottle and staggered to his feet, and said with a little drunkenness: "Let me say two things, you are just a bunch of fools, and you are not qualified to be an independent investigator at all." Especially you, it's been nine days since you've been here, right? Don't waste any more of our food, pack your bags and go home...... No one is coming today, I'm going to sleep. ”
With that, Ben staggered to the second floor. The man who came for nine days was an Arab man. In a fit of rage, he grabbed his steak knife and threw it out. The steak knife is inserted on the wooden ladder in front of me. Ben grabbed it with his right hand, pulled out the steak knife, then looked at it and said, "I'll do a magic trick for you." "Put the steak knife together with both hands, the steak knife is gone, and then put your hands together. With a sound of entering the wood, everyone turned their heads to see that the steak knife pierced the Arab robe, nailing it to the chair. It's only a few centimeters away from the root of life. Everyone was shocked, not only did they not see how Ben made the shot, but they also didn't see how the steak knife flew out.
"Do you know our rating?" Ben Dao: "You are a bunch of scrap copper and rotten iron, and then you go up to silver, and it is also garbage." The gold level is ok. The gem-quality ones are talking about me. My name is Ben. What the? Diamond, you say? Those people are monsters, and I advise you not to mess with them as you do with me. ”
The knife vented by the Arab man made everyone feel comfortable, and it was a sulk that had been held for several days. But the knife this time made them lower their heads. stealing fun in the light and secret, the two cheat fathers are acting double reeds. The Arab's knife was a real kung fu, it was just a magic trick to hide the steak knife. Then the Arabs took advantage of the magic trick and stuck another steak knife into the chair. The Arabs are in a good position, and a single trick can deceive many people.
In this case, how did Yu Ming know? Because the Arabs had eaten half of the steak in front of them, and now the steak knife on the chair was clean. It seems that the organizing committee knows that the people here are in a hurry and can't bear it, so they deliberately performed a set of tricks at lunchtime. It is then inferred that these people weishenme were impatient because they could not get any information about the temple from the village.
After Yu Ming steak came up and ate a few bites, the first floor was empty. Some of them went to inquire about the news, some went to the temple to look for clues, and some simply hiked into the jungle to try their luck.
Yu Ming was full, took the plate and walked to the bar and put it down and asked, "Excuse me, where is the Lagu Temple?" ”
The locals who wiped the dishes in the bar looked at Yu Ming, pointed to their ears and mouths, and waved their hands.
Yu Mingdao: "You are not dumb, you are at least not deaf." Since there is no news from the whole village, I think you will have news. "It's simple to be dark under the lights. Ben's glow completely obscured the native's presence. And he disguises himself as a deaf and dumb person, and no one will communicate with him too deeply. Unless you can know that he is not really deaf and dumb.
The local laughed, stretched out his hand at the bar, and pulled out a folded haode paper. Yu Ming took the paper and went back to the room. Back on the bed, Yu Ming opened the paper and saw that it was a hand-drawn map. The map is relatively simple, with references such as peaks and giant trees. The first peak can be seen just from the hotel. According to this reference, Yu Ming estimated the distance, which was about 100 kilometers. In addition to these, there is a moon on the map.
Yu Ming went to sleep, and after dinner, he sat with Ivan again. Yu Ming asked, "Are you free to come to my room at night?" ”
Ivan hurriedly said: "I'm not interested in men. ”
Yu Ming explained: "It's just playing cards and drinking. There is no other entertainment in the town anyway. ”
Ivan smiled, still shaking his head.
Yu Ming waited in the room until twelve o'clock, but Ivan still did not come. Yu Ming could only give up and went downstairs with a travel bag on his back. Ben leaned against the bar, took a glass of wine in his hand, saw Yu Ming smiling, and pointed to the back door to lead the way. Yu Ming followed. The two did not speak, shaking hands outside the back door. (To be continued......)
