Chapter 29: Anin's whereabouts
The little brother asked again and again, and Kang Balo revealed that the girl was chosen to appease the demon sacrifice.
If the Zhang family had not come here in the fourth decade, they would have sent the girl over, because the ten-year period was approaching, and the previous move in the lama temple was to perform the necessary rituals on the offerings.
The little brother felt that these people were not telling the truth, and he could feel that the girl was no longer human.
The whole thing is extremely unreasonable, and there are too many loopholes.

Zhang Qixun stayed in the room for more than ten days, and every day after dinner, he would take the crescent moon out to walk on the path in the lama temple.
Occasionally, when I met Chen Xuehan who picked people up the mountain, the two would sit at a table and chat a few words.
"There seem to be a lot more people in the temple lately." Zhang Qi touched the head of the crescent moon, and held a small jar like a wine jar for her to sniff, which contained a small piece of the skin of the black lin-haired snake.
In the past few days, he has also discovered that the crescent moon is much smarter than the average wolf green dog, and A-Ning has trained her in some basic obedience behaviors before, and what makes him most interested is that the crescent moon has a natural aversion to the black-scaled snake.
Once, before walking with the crescent moon, he took out the venom of a few black hairy snakes collected in the space and tried to dilute it, and dropped a very thin drop into his nose, and gradually increased the amount after getting used to it.
This is also to do a desensitization experiment in advance for reading pheromones in the future, because he has absorbed snake eggs, his five senses are beyond ordinary acuteness, and the effect of snake venom is greater than that of pheromones.
He didn't want to be in that half-dead state every time he read pheromones, which was dangerous when he couldn't guarantee the absolute safety of his environment.
Even though his whole body was disinfected and cleaned afterwards, when he went to see the crescent moon after dinner that day, the crescent moon suddenly became very irritable in the face of Zhang Qixun's arrival, and roared in his direction, but because he was familiar with the smell of his half of the master, he lingered, circled around him, resisted and wanted to approach.
Zhang Qixun didn't know why at first, and he coaxed the crescent moon for a long time before he was willing to get closer, but he kept staring at his hands and face and sniffing.
Zhang Qixun reacted violently, and the crescent moon was suddenly vigilant, in fact, he smelled the residual smell of snake venom on his body, even the disinfectant alcohol could not completely hide the dangerous breath.
This is really an unexpected joy, Zhang Qixun happily touched the head of the crescent moon, the dog's sense of smell is already keen, and the crescent moon is an innate talent.
Therefore, Zhang Qixun specially took out the specimens of the black lin-haired snake collected in the space to train the crescent, and the crescent moon performed better than common sense.
Chen Xuehan shaved rice into his mouth while watching Zhang Qixun interact with the dog.
After sniffing the jar for a while, Zhang Qixun covered the jar and threw it to the crescent, and the crescent moon pounced on it as fiercely as a hungry tiger pounced, as sharp and clever as a little leopard.
"Approaching the end of the year, there will always be great lamas from all over the world who come here to hold a great summoning ceremony, and some guests will also come to listen to the Buddha, and there will inevitably be more people in the temple."
Chen Xuehan himself actually wondered, although this lama temple is not isolated from the world, but in addition to a few fixed teams every year, there are really few people who come together, so that no one in the hall can sit down, and many lamas have moved to another room to eat.
Zhang Qixun rarely goes to the dining hall, there are too many people, even if the lamas eat quietly, he is still not used to the mixed atmosphere around him, "Who are they?" Foreigners are still Han Chinese. â
Those people don't seem to know what quiet is, so that the quiet temple in the past is also noisy, Zhang Qixun just doesn't dislike the natural and warm fireworks when he stays with Wu Xie Fat Brother and them, but he doesn't like this, he is incompatible with strange people.
"Most of them are foreigners, all of them are familiar faces who have been to the temple before." Chen Xuehan paused and added, "It is estimated that it won't be long before I leave." â
Chen Xuehan knew very well in his heart that Zhang Qixun was a master who knew that he was not easy to mess with just by looking at his eyes, but after a long time of contact, he also knew that he was more easy-going on weekdays and would not care about anything.
Therefore, he didn't scare him much, and specially advised: "Those foreigners look like five big and three rough, don't have any conflict with them." â
It's not that he's afraid that Zhang Qixun will suffer any losses, he doesn't have a good impression of those foreigners, although they are more generous, he is worried that when the time comes, those foreigners don't know how serious they will provoke the person in front of them, and if something goes wrong, the temple is not good, after all, they are all guests.
Zhang Jixun naturally didn't have so much time to provoke those people, and the records of Naruhito over the past were enough for him to study for a long time.
But to his surprise, he ignored it, and those people took the initiative to come to the door.
Those foreigners also paid attention to a salute before the soldiers.
After Zhang Qixun and Chen Xuehan finished talking, when they took the crescent moon back, the crescent moon first smelled the breath of the stranger, and leaned on the door to block Zhang Qixun, and the tip of his nose kept moving close to the crack in the door.
Zhang Qixun let go of his perception and probed, but he didn't see anyone in the house, so he knew that the other party was just here to go through the motions, reached out and patted the back of the crescent moon, signaling her to relax, and then led the dog to push the door in, and there was a letter on the empty table in front of him.
The unfamiliar smell that the crescent moon smelled came from this letter.
Zhang Qixun pointed to the felt cushion on the chair, untied the rope and let the crescent moon drag it down to rest, recently there are many people in the temple, so he won't let the crescent go to Chen Xuehan's house.
The envelope was not glued, only five words were neatly written on the back in Chinese characters, "Mr. Bai personally opened." â
Zhang Qixun already knew who the person looking for him was, the people from the Quiet Company, and it seemed that they were the people who came to the temple recently.
Take protective measures and take out the thin letter paper inside, which begins with the common name of foreigners, "Dear Mr. Bai......"
The general content of the letter is to say that they know that Zhang Qixun has what they want, so they plan to talk to Zhang Qixun about cooperation, and that they are very sincere, and they never mention A-Ning and Rude who attacked him before.
Zhang Qixun knew that the people in the quiet company would not give up easily, so he regarded this letter as a fart and tore it up casually and threw it on the eaves of the next room outside.
Early the next morning, when the little lama brought goat's milk, he mentioned it in passing, saying that someone had been waiting outside the house for a long time, and asked the little lama to help inform him.
Zhang Qixun still didn't pay attention, and after thanking the little lama, he said, "You tell him that I am in retreat, and I don't see him." â
The little lama nodded, and did as he went out.
The German nodded, his face was solemn and cold, and there was no displeasure, in his opinion, this is the arrogant performance that a long-fingered person should have, the Han people have an old saying, three times the thatched house, capable people naturally have a temper, and their purpose is not only to cooperate.
On the third day, the Germans came here again, and waited under the porch at the door earlier than yesterday, the deadline he had given to the long fingers in the house.
If he hasn't seen anyone today, then don't blame him for being polite, he thinks his sincerity is enough.
When the little lama went out after delivering the goat's milk, the German turned his head, but saw that there was an additional person standing at the open door, who was the owner of the house he was looking for, who seemed to be younger than in the photo, and his eyes were sharper, worthy of a man with long fingers.
When the Germans were looking at Zhang Qixun, Zhang Qixun was also analyzing him.
This man was very tall, as strong as a polar bear, with silver-gray hair combed back of his head, and the knife-cut stripes on his face looked like scars, which was very hateful.
He has a pair of amber hunter's eyes, this kind of person is used to controlling everything, and it is obvious that he is very confident in his own strength, and he is confident that he will convince Zhang Jixun to cooperate with him.
Zhang Qixun's eyes stayed on his neck for a moment, a little troublesome but not tricky, and it was still okay to kill him quietly.
The German, sensing Zhang Qixun's hostility, took two steps closer, the smile on his face widened, and he made a charlatan salute with his fists.
From the bugging device installed on Rude's body, he already knew that Zhang Qixun knew German, so he said directly: "Hey, Mr. Bai, Jiu Yang, I have always wanted to make friends with your Longfinger family, and today I finally have a chance, I am not very honored." â
Zhang Qixun did not respond, it seems that the Germans regard him as a member of the overseas Zhang family, no wonder they will take the initiative to talk about cooperation.
The German continued: "Etiquette exchanges, first introduce yourself, my name is Andrio Lane, of course you can also call me by my Chinese name, Li Ande. â
Zhang Qixun looked at him indifferently, still without meaning to speak.
Li Ande smiled slightly, "Presumably as smart as Mr. Bai, naturally he already knows our intentions." â
Zhang Qixun snorted, "So what? â
"We need those notebooks to take us into the mountains." Li Ande said very simply, "I know that Mr. Bai and your family have been studying how to enter the mountain for a long time. â
Zhang Qixun sneered and said unceremoniously: "What if you know, you can't enter the mountain, it's my business." â
Li Ande was a little angry, and he who claimed to be a Chinese expert was also annoyed by Zhang Qixun's ruthless and bad attitude, "Although it's none of your business, it's about its master." â
Li Ande stretched out his finger and poked out the dog's head at the door, staring at this side with unkind eyes, just waiting for Zhang Qixun to give an order, he pounced over and bit the crescent moon.
"Her owner stole two important pieces of information from us, so we arrested her, and now it's in your hands."
Seeing Zhang Qixun's face change slightly, Li Ande smiled confidently.
He was sure that Zhang Qixun would not sit idly by and ignore the woman's situation, "Don't worry, even if Miss Bai took our things, we didn't do anything bad to her, she is doing very well now, our people take good care of her, and she is in the headquarters of the quiet company." â
Zhang Qixun narrowed his eyes slightly, "So, what do you want?" â
He had already made sure that Anin was not in their hands.
Maybe he was caught before, but Anin escaped with his own skills, and then hid, otherwise the German would not have made any special emphasis on Anin's location.
"We can exchange, share information, I'll tell you the meaning of those two strings of numbers, you show us that oil painting and notes, we'll return Miss Bai to you, and you go into the mountain with us." Li Ande said.
"What do you want to do in the mountains, you also know very well that the way into the mountains is very dangerous, you must have sent more than one wave of people into the mountains, all failed?" Zhang Qixun softened his tone with a false meaning.
Li Ande heard the hesitation in his words, so he became more confident, and the hand behind his back moved slightly, and he gestured, "As you said, we have failed many times. â
"Without those notes and scrolls, we would not have been able to know the true route to the Holy Lake, I can only tell you that those two strings of numbers are the information about the Holy Land Heavenly Stone deciphered by our leader, so if you want to know what those numbers represent, you must go there as well."
Zhang Qixun glanced around the corner of the corridor, where there was more than one strong man with a loaded gun.
"Why don't we sit down and drink tea and talk slowly?" Lee didn't push too hard, he had time before the plan was fully implemented.
Zhang Qixun also took a step back and walked back to the house.
When Li Ande came in, he was accompanied by a German who was a head shorter than him, with a full beard, although he looked a little rougher, but his face was much kinder than Li Ande.
The man introduced himself, in standard Mandarin, "Hello Mr. Bai, I'm Mr. Lane's deputy, and my name is von Otto Erich." â
Zhang Qixun glanced at him, and said in his heart that this is still a descendant of a German nobleman.
Feng put a stack of materials on the table very straightforwardly, and said, "This is the source of all incidents, and it is also the beginning of our quiet company to organize this operation. â
The previous Ruud and their stronghold in Motuo had actually been set up here before Jude Kaw took over the German company, and after Jude Kaw's death, the people of the Quiet Company continued to use the base here to monitor Motuo.
They don't know much about the Long Finger family, only that they are very mysterious, so when they found Zhang Qixun's lonely Long Finger, they immediately realized that this was a rare opportunity.
To summarize briefly the information on the data, Jude Kao's company is a joint-stock system, and there are many mixed forces in it, among which there are two groups of most prominent people.
A group of people were there at Jude Cow's company at the beginning of its existence, and it is very special that they voluntarily quit every dozen years.
But in fact, this group of people has not left, they are still there, their appearance has not changed from beginning to end, but they have changed their names and inserted into the grassroots level of other departments, and Jude Cow's company seems to be a no-man's land full of holes in front of them.
There is also a group of people who are relatively low-key, this group of people is not very numerous, most of them are veterans of the company, and their decisions are almost unconditionally in favor of Jude Kao.
But Jude Kao is not a fool after all, and after a long time, he also found that these two groups of people in his company are fighting with each other.
So the sandpiper and the clam compete for the fisherman's profit, and he uses the two sides of the feud to develop himself, while also constantly discovering the secrets behind them.
