Chapter 045: Road Section

Luo Feng nodded at me, and I quickly squatted down and asked what I was doing when the little ghost saw me. The little ghost knew that there was something wrong with these Dao statues, and it was definitely not by mistake, she really had an impression of this place. This made me even more sure that the imp said that she used to see me in this place when she was a child, and it wasn't a mistake in memory.

It's a pity that no matter what the imp thinks, she can't remember. Her memory of Sansongguan is only these Taoist images, and the vague impression of me. What the little ghost remembers most clearly is the scene where Xuanyi domesticated her in the wild. I couldn't ask, so I had to stand up again, and Chen Fan suddenly asked me: "Brother Han, could it be your own brother?" ”

I shook my head: "I am an only child. ”

Chen Fan walked back and forth a few steps, and when he turned his back to me, Chen Fan asked again: "Could it be your father, does your father look like you?" After Chen Fan asked, he turned around, but when he faced me again, my hand had already pinched his neck.

I grabbed Chen Fan's neck, pushed him back fiercely, and pressed him against the wall at once, Chen Fan stared at me in horror, and I coldly told him not to speculate at will. Chen Fan was so frightened that he nodded immediately, Luo Feng patted me on the shoulder, and I let go.

Luo Feng quickly changed the subject, and he asked if we should search more carefully, especially the Dao statue inside the stop gate. I nodded, and searched room by room with them more closely, and soon we found several more statues.

All the Taoist statues are hollowed out, and the space inside is completely enough for a person to hide in. This further confirms my previous speculation, inside the stop gate, there is a group of very mysterious people hidden, when someone else enters the stop door, they are hidden in that statue, and the reason why the old Taoist was able to extinguish the fire so quickly is probably also the help of this group of people, otherwise, with the old Taoist alone, it is absolutely impossible to extinguish the fire in a short time.

It seems to be just a very ordinary Tibetan method, but it is actually very clever. There is nothing strange about this statue on the surface, and the outer wall is very thick, and when you knock it by hand, there is almost no way to find that it is hollowed. Moreover, each statue has some weight, and most people don't think to move it.

At first, we were very wary because we didn't know if there was anyone hiding inside the door, but later, we were completely sure that there was no one else but us inside the door. After thinking about it carefully, the old Taoist chief is dead, Xuanyi is also gone, and there are only a group of ordinary Taoist priests left in Sansongguan, and the secrets in the stop gate, the hidden people, naturally will no longer be sealed in the stop gate.

I looked at my watch, and it was almost dawn. We turned out the Sansong Temple again, and after waiting outside for a long time, the gate of the Sansong Temple opened, and one after another, there were also believers going up the mountain. However, the number of people going up the mountain is far from being more than before. The reason is easy to figure out: the old Taoist chief is dead, and Xuanyi is gone.

After the gate of Sansongguan opened, we walked in openly.

We casually found a Taoist priest, and after Chen Fan showed his ID, the Taoist priest had to answer our questions patiently. The Taoist priest told us that after Xuanyi left, he never contacted Sansongguan again, and everyone did not know where Xuanyi had gone and when he would return.

However, what the Taoist priests firmly believe is that Xuanyi will definitely return. Because, Xuanyi's departure from the Taoist Temple was the intention of the old Taoist, and at that time, the old Taoist told everyone that Xuanyi was ordered by him to go out to do errands.

"What about the secular disciples of Sansongguan?" I asked.

The Taoist priest glanced at me and said that in the past two years, Sansongguan has stopped accepting secular disciples. I was slightly stunned, this was something that Luo Feng hadn't found out before. The Taoist priest said that since Yunqing burned the fire in the stop gate, Sansongguan has suspended accepting any secular disciples, and this stop is until now.

The Taoist priest said, suddenly feeling a little envious. Sometimes, he said, he would rather be just a lay disciple himself. Because, as long as the lay disciples stay on the mountain for two years, they can be protected by the old Taoist elders and immortals, and it will be smooth sailing from then on. I asked if there was any strange behavior for those secular disciples when they were on the mountain.

The Taoist priest shook his head and said that the secular disciples were similar to the Taoist priests every day, all they did every day was to meditate and recite Taoist scriptures, and the only difference was that at about one o'clock every night, the old Taoist chief would gather them together and preach to them. Wind or rain, this is true for more than an hour of preaching every day, without stopping.

Moreover, every day at that time, the old Taoist chief would find several Taoist priests and ask them to stay outside the preaching place to prevent anyone from eavesdropping. Some Taoist priests who had just gone up the mountain felt that the old Taoist was a little tricky at first, but after witnessing those secular disciples coming down the mountain, they were all shocked and praised the old Taoist leader's high mana.

Luo Feng sneered: "The sermon is sneaky, where is the place to preach, take us there." ”

The Taoist priest was reluctant at first, but after being frightened by Luo Feng's fist, he hurriedly took us there. The place where the sermon was preached was in a small hall at the back of the main hall, and the hall was arranged in such a complicated way that as long as there were people guarding outside, it was impossible for anyone to sneak into the hall without the eyes of the guards.

This also ensures that the old Taoist's lectures will not be overheard. Luo Feng drove the Taoist priest out, and as soon as the Taoist priest left, Luo Feng immediately asked me if I felt it, I nodded, and began to search around. Chen Fan's nerves were tense, and he asked us one after another, what did we feel.

Chen Fan said that he didn't find anything, and the only feeling was that this place was gloomy and very infiltrating. It is true that this place is not well lit, there are no windows, and the hall seems empty, but because of some of the arrangements in the hall, we talk without echoing at all.

It's as if as soon as we say something, it stops.

"This hall, in the Sansong Temple, should be connected to the backyard of the stop gate." Luo Feng explained to Chen Fan, who didn't know why.

Chen Fan realized that we had been looking in the hall for a long time, and sure enough, we found a very hidden passage. The passage was discovered by the imp, and she is very sensitive to the passage. The passage, behind a cabinet, we pushed the cabinet open, and we saw a passage about a meter high and half a meter wide.

Without saying a word, I crouched down and went in. The passage was not long, and after a while of drilling, I reached the end. At the other end of the passage, there was something wooden, and I pushed it hard, but it didn't push away. It was a bit heavy, I didn't push it anymore, I guess it was a cabinet too.

In the passage, it is difficult to push open, but outside, moving the cabinet, is very simple.

I drilled back again, and when I came out, I confirmed it with the people. Chen Fan looked at the time, the three-day period, and the whole day passed like this. After finding out the problem of Sansongguan, we didn't plan to linger longer, and went straight down the mountain. When we left, there were already a lot of people in Sansong Temple.

I led the little ghost and observed the expression of each Taoist priest.

I tried to find out who recognized the imp, but until we got down the hill, I didn't find anything.

After getting into the car, Luo Feng spoke again. He said that the old Taoist elder preached to the secular disciples in that hall, and that hall was connected to the courtyard of the Stopping Gate, and the inside of the Stopping Gate was so weird, so he felt that those secular disciples would be so successful, and there might really be a group of people manipulating, and that group of people was the same people who were hiding in the courtyard of the Stopping Gate.

Unfortunately, those people are now nowhere to be found.

When we returned to the vicinity of the police station, Luo Feng's men still hadn't found anything. Chen Fan asked me what I was going to do next, and there were only two days left to solve the case. According to my plan, if Luo Feng's subordinates can collect all two lists, then there will definitely be a crossed name, and that person is the suspect.

However, even if the suspect is found, we have no evidence. At this point, some things have been clarified, but some mysteries still exist. One of the biggest mysteries is the fresh food in the stomach of the deceased and the money that somehow turned into the money of the dead.

I decided to go to Chaoyang Ji again.

When he met the boss of Chaoyangji, he was already a little impatient. Because of the media reports in the port area, the boss of Chaoyangji also thought that Yunqing killed people and then blackmailed them for money. Luo Feng was a little disdainful of this, saying that whether it is the port area or the mainland, the people are just as stupid and can easily be influenced by public opinion.

We asked the boss and guy of Chaoyang Ji in great detail about the food delivery in those three days. Three deliveries, all during the day, and the guy and the boss all went by bicycle. Contacting the sudden extra money in Fat Ji's pocket, I asked the boss and the guy if they also put the money in their pockets.

The boss said no, saying that they were all around their waist bags.

The boss also took out the fanny pack and showed us that the fanny pack had a zipper and the money was put inside. At my repeated requests, the delivery guy was finally willing to follow us through the delivery journey again. Originally, I wanted to use the scenario simulation commonly used in reconnaissance to remind the guy who delivered the food of something that he might have ignored and forgotten, but soon, I found a problem.

At first, when Chaoyang Ji first came out, there were very few people, and the last section, which is very close to the residential area of the murder scene, was also very small.

However, in the middle of Chaoyang Ji and the residential area, you have to pass through a block, and that block is very crowded.

Luo Feng and his buddies both said that this place belongs to the slums, and the only lively thing is this street.

"This is the problem." As I spoke, I raised my head and observed, and soon, I urged Chen Fan: "You go back to the police station immediately!" ”
