Chapter 267: Xitou Village

Xitou Village. Although it is under the jurisdiction of Oyama City, it is basically a suburb of Oyama City, and it has a completely different scene from the bustling urban area.

A river separates the village from the road outside, connected only by an arch bridge that can accommodate two cars walking side by side, and Xitou Village is located on one side of the river near the source of the river, which may be the origin of the name of Xitou Village, in front of which stands a huge stone block with red paint on it

The three big characters of "Xitou Village" may have faded somewhat because of the long term and the wind and rain.

But it is precisely because of this that this village monument will give people a sense of quaintness. Behind Xitou Village is a large mountain with dense trees, and at the bottom of the mountain, at a glance, most of the houses in the village are still built with bluestone and mud, and a small part is made of red bricks.

The style of the whole village is still in the relatively old architectural style of the fifties and sixties. As the saying goes,

The land of "backing mountains and facing water" is a treasure land of feng shui. As soon as there is water in front of the door, it means that there is wealth and luck gathered, because water is a symbol of wealth and luck in feng shui, so there is water in front of the house, which means that wealth and luck will develop very well.

Second, there is a mountain behind the house, which means that there is a backer behind it, and the future family fortune will be greatly improved.

"Backing" means that the career development of the family will be very smooth, and there will be help from noble people in the workplace. In addition, mountains are sometimes also a barrier to ward off evil spirits, so having a mountain behind the house can often help us resist disasters and evil attacks from behind, and bless the peace and auspiciousness of our home.

Just looking at the current situation in Xitou Village, such a statement does not seem to have come true. The sun rises as usual in the early morning, and the fog is still a little heavy in Xitou Village because of the backing of the mountain, and when the sun shines down, Xitou Village, which is shrouded in a thick mist, has a feeling of being in the clouds, which looks a little unreal.

Because the passage between Xitou Village and the outside world is only the arch bridge, Xitou Village was basically in a very calm state in the past, but now it is different from the past, and at this moment, the road a few kilometers away from Xitou Village has already been cordoned.

Police cars, ambulances, armed squads, and other staff waited outside the cordon, and passing pedestrians and vehicles were discouraged from detouring, as if some major accident was happening ahead.

In fact, many people also thought so, and took out their mobile phones to shoot, wanting to get the first-hand live picture number and send it to the Internet to gain a wave of attention, but they were soon severely warned by the staff squatting here, and confiscated and checked that there was no actual content in the mobile phone before returning it.

However, at this moment, on the dirt road with some potholes in front of me, a tall and powerful mountain buggy was waddling over.

Seeing this, the nearby staff thought that it was also an unrelated person, and hurriedly stretched out their hands to stop: "I'm sorry, this area has been controlled because of a major accident, please leave here immediately." The window rolled down, and Jin Qikun, who was sitting in the main driver, turned his head and took out his ID and said, "It's me, let me go immediately!" The staff immediately replied as soon as they saw the documents: "Yes, Team Leader Kim." Then he greeted the back and asked them to immediately put away the cordon and let them go.

The mountain buggy roared and continued inside, the billowing wheels kicking up puffs of dust. Soon they crossed the arched bridge that connected to Xitou Village, stopped on the other side of the bridge, and then three men of different ages descended from the mountain buggy.

Although the three of them are dressed differently, they all reveal the same fierce and fierce atmosphere, in the eyes of some of the investigators who often go in and out of the murder scene, these three people feel extremely dangerous, even those bloodthirsty serial murderers are far less intense than any of these three people want to come.

It's daunting! And these three people are the trio of the weird team that came to investigate the Xitou Village incident, Mu Yijian, Zhong Minghao and Qin Mufeng.

"Captain Mu, Officer Zhong, Officer Qin, then I'll send you here, and the rest will trouble you." The car window rolled down again, and Jin Qikun said to the three of them.

"Okay, this place is already within the range of the supernatural, you should leave as soon as possible. In addition, keep the cordon a little farther away, and at the same time pay more attention to whether there are any suspicious people nearby, and detain them as soon as they are found. Mu Yijian glanced in the direction of Xitou Village, and then instructed Jin Qikun lightly.

If there are still those suspicious characters here, more than 90 percent of them are probably

Employees of the "company", because only they will be compelled to do so

The task issued by the "company" appeared here, and according to Chen Yinjun's report, the staff were basically ordinary people, and they were completely able to detain them by relying on the manpower deployed outside the cordon.

If it is a strange person, Mu Yijian is also very aware of the psychology of those strange people, unless it is necessary, they will never take the initiative to touch the supernatural event, such a big pomp outside, if it is a strange person, you can know at a glance what is happening inside.

They will only actively dodge and will not go deeper, let alone clash with people outside.

"Received it, do it immediately, the three of you are more careful, and look forward to your safe return!" As soon as the words fell, Jin Qikun had already turned the direction of the front of the car, and as soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the mountain off-road vehicle roared again in the direction where it came.

Seeing that Jin Qikun had already driven away, Mu Yijian turned around and said, "Let's go, go in." With that, he immediately walked in the direction of the village monument in Xitou Village.

The two people behind him were silent, but silently followed behind Mu Yijian and walked forward together. But if you look closely, you can see that Zhong Minghao and Qin Mufeng, who were following Mu Yijian, formed a triangular formation, and at the same time, their sharp eyes were constantly scanning everything outside of them, alert to possible dangers.

From this moment on, the three of them have officially entered the state. Time, nine o'clock in the morning. Generally, at this point in time, many people have already gotten up, they should go to work, they should go to school, and they should buy vegetables to cook, but at this moment, Xitou Village reveals a trace of strange calm.

The village was quiet, and when Mu Yijian and the three of them walked in, they didn't see a single person outside, and the doors of the rows of earthen houses were only closed, as if this was a small deserted village.

However, in the previous report, before Xu Mingfeng, the person in charge of Dashan City, entered the investigation here, although there were few people in Xitou Village, and young and middle-aged people were working outside to earn money, there were still some elderly people living in Xitou Village.

It's just that after Mu Yijian and the three of them walked into Xitou Village, let alone ghosts, they didn't even see a single figure.

"Captain Mu, do you want to go inside and have a look." Zhong Minghao pointed to a row of earthen houses with closed wooden doors next to him and said.

Mu Yijian glanced over there, shook his head, and said, "No, don't be in a hurry first, take a look again, don't be in a hurry to test this situation for the time being." After a pause, he said to Zhong Minghao: "Let's see, can you find the signal of Xu Mingfeng's mobile phone here." "Only Xu Mingfeng is the official person in charge here, so only he has a special mobile phone allocated to the person in charge.

Zhong Minghao nodded, took out a special mobile phone, turned on the positioning function, and then saw two small green dots appear in the interface, one was himself, and the other was obviously Xu Mingfeng's.

"Captain Mu, there is a situation, I can search for the signal of Xu Mingfeng's mobile phone." Zhong Minghao took the mobile phone and handed it to Mu Yijian, Mu Yijian took it and took a look, the distance between the two was not far, about ten meters away.

"Let's go!" The location of the mobile phone signal is the direction of investigation, as long as Xu Mingfeng is found, the information of Xitou Village will be clearer.

However, just as the three of them were about to start and move forward. Suddenly, behind them was the wooden door of an earthen house on the right

With a "snap", it opened. The three of them were shocked, and then turned around with serious faces.

Under their gaze, they saw an old woman with a somewhat rickety figure come out of the earthen house that had just opened the wooden door, wearing reading glasses, with gray hair, and was on crutches.

When the old woman walked out, she was also stunned when she saw the three people standing in front of the door, one hand propped up her glasses as if she was looking at the three people, and after looking at them for a while, she said, "You three are not from our village, are you, what are you doing here?" There seemed to be a hint of vigilance in his words, obviously treating Mu Yi and the three of them as thieves or something.

"Grandma, hello, that's the case, our company was doing team building nearby yesterday, and then we had a colleague who said that he had a classmate who lived in Xitou Village, so he planned to come over to him to catch up, and by the way, he had a meal with his classmates, and let us call him when we were ready to go back, and now we are ready to go back, and he won't answer when we call him, so we plan to come in to see if he is still here." Zhong Minghao raised the mobile phone in his hand and said that he had made a call but did not get through, so he came in to find someone.

"Grandma, did you come in at the same time yesterday when you saw me?" As he spoke, Zhong Minghao was about to walk forward.

It's just that at this time, some changes suddenly appeared on the interface of the raised mobile phone, and Zhong Minghao's eyes couldn't help but stop after scanning the interface of the mobile phone.

Mu Yijian and Qin Mufeng noticed Zhong Minghao's subtle move, and then the two of them moved forward a little quietly, and Zhong Minghao's mobile phone gestured to the two of them.

The eyes of the two shrank slightly, and they saw that the small green dot on Zhong Minghao's mobile phone, which originally represented Xu Mingfeng's signal, actually changed direction.

The three of them all raised their heads and looked straight ahead, if the signal was not wrong, the signal of Xu Mingfeng's mobile phone actually appeared on the body of the old woman in front of him?

"What's that colleague's name?" The old woman, who was a little rickety, asked.

"Xu Mingfeng, tall and thin, about thirty-two years old." Zhong Minghao replied, but his eyes didn't dare to blink for a moment to look at this old woman.

"Xu Mingfeng?" The old woman muttered, as if she was recalling something, and then said: "I don't seem to see it, our village is relatively remote, few people come, most of the children in the village are working outside to make money, maybe your colleague can't find his classmates and have already gone back, you should go back quickly, don't wander around in the village anymore." "I can't see that this old woman is not young, but she speaks very fluently, and she doesn't need to pause at all when she says so many words, and her face is red and breathless.

"Let's go, let's go!" The old woman waved her hand, signaling Mu Yijian and the three of them to quickly withdraw from their village, then closed the wooden door behind her, and walked tremblingly towards a corner of the village with a cane.

"Captain Mu, this old man is weird!" Qin Mufeng sighed, and it was obviously not a normal thing for a signal to suddenly appear on her body.

A strange smile appeared at the corner of Mu Yijian's mouth: "Of course it's strange, this old man has no shadow when he walks." ”

"What?" Qin Mufeng's expression changed suddenly, and he immediately looked at the old woman with a rickety body who had not completely turned into the corner of the alley.

Suddenly. A chill welled up. Although the sunlight is not very violent at the moment, under the illumination of the sun, this rickety old woman stepped on the ground and did not appear at all.

It's very unreasonable at this point. You know, nothing can be without a shadow in the sun.
