Chapter 46: Finding the Letter in the Dead

"Search!" suddenly the big man stood up and shouted such a word without beginning or end.

"What?" Dazhi sat next to the big man, didn't get up, tilted his head to look at the big man.

"Just now," explained the big man, "the captain has already said that the letter was either hidden or put on the body by some bandit. The question of where to hide? The question will be difficult for a while, because the robbers are all dead, and the dead cannot speak, and they cannot tell us the answer. But hide it on a bandit, this thing is easy to do, you can't just search it one by one. ”

Dazhi suddenly stood up, glanced at the big one, and then turned his gaze to the others.

Qiao Xiaojing, Boss Wu and Lao Zhou didn't seem to hear the big man's words, or they didn't take the big man's words to heart at all, in short, except for Guo Dazhi, the others didn't have any different actions.

"How's it going?" the big man asked Dazhi in a low voice.

"I don't know. Dazhi pouted and shook his head slightly.

"I don't know what it means?" the big man glanced at Dazhi.

"Not knowing is not knowing. Dazhi replied lightly.

"This is a good way," Qiao Xiaojing suddenly stood up, glanced at the big man, nodded and said, "This is the most pragmatic method at present, and it is also the most likely way to make a breakthrough, I fully agree with the big man's proposal, and it is very likely that there will be gains from searching the robbers one by one." I don't know, what do you guys think?"

"Okay......" Cuiyu and Ah Zi responded happily, but Boss Wu and Lao Zhou didn't say anything, as if they were frozen, their eyes were motionless, even their bodies didn't move, their expressions were indifferent, and their thoughts seemed to enter another realm.

Qiao Xiaojing glanced at the two old comrades, then at the other comrades-in-arms, pursed her lips, slowly walked to Boss Wu and Lao Zhou, and said softly: "It's not a way for us to sit here, I don't know what the two seniors think?"

"I'm thinking about something else," Lao Zhou looked like he had just woken up from a dream, and said with a faint smile, "What should I do next?" I really don't know, you say, what needs my Lao Zhou to do, but if I can do it, I will never shirk." ”

"You were very involved just now," Qiao Xiaojing smiled, "I don't know what came to mind, can you share it with the juniors?"

"I really want to share it with you," the old Zhou stared at Boss Wu and said, "But someone he doesn't give me a chance, there is no such good fate, you say, what should I share with you?"

Qiao Xiaojing didn't understand what Lao Zhou meant, let alone why Lao Zhou stared at Boss Wu and said this, she had to stand quietly beside Lao Zhou, not knowing what to say next.

"Boss Zhou," the big man didn't have any worries, and said with a smile, "I don't understand what you're saying, we're all here, and we're all idle at the moment, don't we just have the opportunity to listen to your story?" Tell me, what do you want to share with us, and who do you need to give you this opportunity? I think everyone here, no one will not give you this opportunity." ”

"I know all this," said Lao Zhou with a smile, "but I don't even know what I want to share, so tell me, how can I share it with you?"

"You," Boss Wu turned his head, looked at Lao Zhou and said, "It's not usually like this, you have always been sharp in speaking and doing things, what's wrong with you now?

"You ask me?"

"Of course. ”

"You can't blame me for this, it's mainly your business. ”

"Ming said, the clouds and mountains are covered in fog, and I can't understand it. ”

"I don't know what to say, so let's just tell me what I just thought. I've been pondering the letter you said just now, although I don't know the ins and outs of that letter, and I don't know how important that letter is, or how important it is, judging from Boss Wu's actions alone, a letter can make a person who has always been elegant and calm go against the norm, which shows that its weight is not small. It's a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to see it, and I feel a little regretful in my heart. ”

"I understand a little," Boss Wu nodded with a smile, "You just said that no one gave you a chance, and this person is me?" Indeed, this letter is very important, only for me personally. I can give you a brief look, if the letter is still there, but you have also seen the situation, no, the letter is gone, you regret it, I regret it even more. ”

"You must know the content of the letter, don't you?" Lao Zhou's expression was like a gluttonous child, who seemed to see the other party holding the good things he wanted to eat in his hands.

"Yes!" Boss Wu nodded.

"Then can you give us ......?"

"Can't!" Before Lao Zhou finished speaking, Boss Wu categorically refused.

"I mean, can you give us a brief explanation......

"Can't!" Boss Wu interrupted Lao Zhou's words halfway again, and his attitude was very resolute.

"Can you let me finish speaking?" that old Zhou was a little anxious.

"We're all disciplined. Boss Wu responded coldly.

"I know that. That old Zhou said with a smile, "I don't mean anything else, don't get me wrong, I'm just a little curious, I just want you to tell us a brief story about the origin of this letter." Make it simple and satisfy our curiosity!"

"Can't!" Boss Wu listened to Lao Zhou's words very patiently this time, but his attitude did not change, and he was still very tough.

"I'm just joking with you," Lao Zhou was rejected by Boss Wu many times, and said a little embarrassedly, "As an old worker, I still know discipline and rules, how can I knowingly break it?"

"Really, that's great!" At this moment, Boss Wu's attitude was unacceptable, making everyone feel a little too unkind.

"Joke, a joke, it's ridiculous, haha......" Everyone felt embarrassed, although there was nothing funny, in order not to make Lao Zhou feel too ugly, everyone listened to it as a joke, and watched it as a joke.

"Boss Wu," Qiao Xiaojing knew that she couldn't go on like this, calmed down, and said to Boss Wu, "What do you think now, about that important letter?"

"At first," Boss Wu shook his head and sighed in disappointment, "I also fantasized that one day the letter would come back to me, but as time went on, I gradually gave up, and I thought that finding the letter was like fishing for an embroidery needle in the middle of the sea, it was too difficult, and it was probably impossible to find it again." What I didn't expect was that when I was suppressing the bandits, I found my things, and the things that had left me for many days and didn't know their whereabouts suddenly appeared in front of my eyes again, and my heart once again ignited hope--- when I saw my cloth bag in front of me, and the clothes in the bag were all there, my heart was very excited, really excited, but what happened? All this was like an illusion, and the hope I had ignited was extinguished in an instant. I, I'm in a mess right now, really, my brain is buzzing, I'm at a loss, I can't seem to think of anything......"

"Then," Qiao Xiaojing took a deep breath and said lightly, "Then, just now the big man proposed a solution, which is to search these bandits one by one, since your bag has fallen into the hands of the bandits, maybe the letter is on the bandits, I think the big man's proposal is reasonable, why don't we search it, what do you say?"

"There's no way around it, try it. Boss Wu said weakly.

Qiao Xiaojing entrusted the injured Jade to Boss Wu and Lao Zhou, and took Ah Zi, Dazhi and the big man to start searching the bandits outside the cave.

"What did you find?" But after some searching, Qiao Xiaojing didn't find anything related to the letter from the bandits, raised her head, and looked at Ah Zi, Dazhi and the big man who were busy.

"At the moment," Ah Zi pouted and shook her head, "nothing has been found." ”

Da Zhi and the big man glanced at Qiao Xiaojing lightly, and shook their heads in a little disappointment.

"Look for it carefully," although Qiao Xiaojing felt that it might be useless to look for it again, she still didn't give up, and said to Ah Zi and them, "Maybe we missed something, it's not difficult to hide a letter, but if you want to find it, it's not easy to find." ”

"Okay, let's look for it again. Ah Zi took the lead and said.

"Oh," Dazhi said with a frown as he looked at the corpse beside him, a little impatiently, "I think we're just delaying our work, maybe the letter won't be a robber at all." ”

"It's not like there's no other way, besides, it's not impossible for the letter to happen on your body, what if you find it?"

"If you want me to say," Dazhi said lightly while searching for the bandits, "This bandit also has smart people, how can such an important thing be on the body? Not only will it not be on the body, but it may have become money." ”

"What do you mean?" Qiao Xiaojing stopped and looked directly at Dazhi.

"In my opinion," Dazhi was worried that Boss Wu would be unhappy when he heard it, so he leaned closer to Qiao Xiaojing and said in a low voice, "Those bandits must have read the content of the letter and found that this letter is very important, but they are bandits, and the bandits have never had an affair with the official family, and it is impossible for the letter to be delivered to the official family." But what if they keep the letters, they know they don't have any practical effect?"

"Say it quickly!" Qiao Xiaojing was eager to hear Dazhi's final conclusion.

"As for the bandits," Dazhi continued, "it has always been their forte to exchange things for money, and what do you think these robbers will do with their letters?"

"Sold?" Qiao Xiaojing was surprised.

"Oh," said Dazhi, "is there no such possibility? I'm afraid that letters are worthless, and if they are worthless, they are waste paper, and no one wants to buy them; but if they are valuable, there are not many people who pay for them? Not to mention a letter, even a piece of bamboo is also bought by some people, and I have heard that the bamboo is very valuable, and many of them may not be able to buy it now." ”

"Bamboo?" Qiao Xiaojing didn't quite understand, and asked tentatively, "Are you talking about painted bamboo?"

"yes, you've heard of that, haven't you?"

"Alas," Qiao Xiaojing shook her head and said helplessly, "I can understand it, you will talk nonsense for a long time, how can letters and bamboo be compared together? Zheng Banqiao's bamboo is a national treasure, and what are the letters we are looking for? Many people don't know what they are in their hands, how can they be the same?"

"Forget it, forget it!" Qiao Xiaojing glared at Dazhi and said to Ah Zi and the big man, "Don't listen to his nonsense, let's hurry up, if we really can't find it, let's change places and continue to look for it." ”
