As if noticing that Zhao Qi was a little surprised when he looked at him, Zhang Zhenshan smiled and said:

"I was born in a remote mountain village, and I grew up with some folk rules that the older generation often said.

For example, if you don't plant willows in front of the door, you don't plant mulberries behind the house.

Or the zodiac is restrained, funeral taboos and the like......

In fact, the culture of our country is inseparable from folk customs, just because of the development of science and technology, but it has to be distinguished from it, but in fact, our country has never rejected folk customs, and I always believe that there is no need to contradict folk customs.

Entering the country and asking about the prohibited, entering and asking about the customs, and entering and asking.

The ceremonies during the festival and the exquisiteness of weddings and funerals. These are all folk customs, and it is precisely these that constitute a more wonderful oriental cultural system, which distinguishes our country from other countries and becomes a great country with a long history of 6,000 years. ”

Zhao Qi didn't expect that Zhang Zhenshan, as the director of the Security Department, would have such a transparent view of folk customs.

It is no wonder that in his previous life, Zhang Zhenshan was able to stand out from the crowd of demon slayers and become one of the strongest people.

Because his views on these things are fundamentally different from those of others.

Soon, Zhang Zhenshan spoke again:

"That doesn't mean I believe in spirits, though."

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhenshan looked at Zhao Qi with a look of exploration in his eyes:

"Listening to what you just said, it seems that there are spirits at work in the disappearance of these scientific research teams.

It can't be, right?

The wrong direction of investigation will inevitably lead to wrong investigation results. ”

Although Zhang Zhenshan in front of him was not as dazzling as in his previous life, Zhao Qi could feel that familiar wisdom from him.

He did not directly express doubts like others, but judged the current state of affairs from an objective point of view and from his own standpoint.

This familiar feeling made Zhao Qi feel a lot in his heart.

But before he could answer, Zhang Zhenshan waved his hand:

"It's just small talk, don't mind.

In this incident, our soldiers only helped to cordon off the scene, and the specific investigation was carried out by the State Secretariat.

So I'm just expressing my opinion, and I'm not going to interfere with any of your next investigations.

But

Maybe it's like fate in folklore, I always have a feeling that between us, the future will be long......"

After saying this, Zhang Zhenshan walked towards Ye Zhiqiang and the others not far away.

Looking at Zhang Zhenshan's back, Zhao Qi's eyes gradually changed from complex to firm.

"Mr. Zhang, between you and me, it is indeed a long time coming."

……

Overnight, Ye Zhiqiang and others have been investigating in this forest, but after checking and checking, in addition to the previously found badges, there are only a few vague footprints.

The situation did not progress as expected, which made Ye Zhiqiang and others, who had spent a night and were already exhausted, feel a little irritable.

When the day was about to dawn, it was raining lightly in the sky, and Ye Zhiqiang and others returned in vain.

"Mr. Zhao, we have done some investigation according to what you said, but there are no substantive clues.

We've wasted another night, and I wonder if you have any other ideas now? ”

It is not difficult to hear from the tone of Ye Zhiqiang's speech that he doesn't believe in what Zhao Qi said about folk customs.

The reason why he had to act according to Zhao Qi's instructions was because he was tasked with Zhao Qi leading the investigation.

As an agent, he still has the basic literacy of obeying orders.

But in Ye Zhiqiang's personal opinion, this is a complete waste of time, and it is better to mobilize drones to conduct aerial reconnaissance.

The entire mountain was immediately cordoned off by the soldiers, which meant that the area was completely enclosed.

It's better than doing useless work and wasting time here.

Zhao Qi didn't give any explanation for this at all, because at this time he was also thinking about what went wrong.

What kind of spirits are interested in these researchers, and what is the purpose of their abduction?

This is the only thing that Zhao Qi can't figure out, he can't determine the type of spirit, so naturally he can't conduct a targeted investigation.

The futility of a night's work made Zhao Qi also feel a little tricky, this spirit seemed to be very cautious, hiding its whereabouts, thus causing the yin qi to dissipate.

But Zhao Qi was forced to need this operation to prove himself, and obviously there was not much time to waste.

Soon, it was dawn, but the light rain was still falling and there was no sign of dissipating.

Zhao Qi inadvertently raised his head, and immediately saw the sun hanging on the edge of the sky.

This made Zhao Qi's eyes suddenly flash a trace of surprise, and then an idea came to his mind.

"It's raining on a sunny day, the fox marries, is it a fox demon?"

Zhao Qi's voice was not loud, but it was extremely clear in this silent forest.

Ye Zhiqiang glanced at Zhao Qi suspiciously, obviously not understanding what he meant, but soon Zhao Qi walked over to this side.

"I know what to do, so get your people to look for it and see if there are any locust trees in this forest.

Find the locust tree, dig up the soil at the base of the locust tree, and bring back as much soil as you can.

If I'm not mistaken, we should be able to find the missing researchers soon. ”

Ye Zhiqiang stood up without saying a word and looked at Zhao Qi:

"Mr. Zhao, you know that the situation of those missing researchers may be dangerous, right? We have to find them in the shortest possible time. ”

Zhao Qi nodded without changing his face and said:

"If you want to find those researchers as soon as possible, just do what I say."

Ye Zhiqiang obviously has something to say, after all, what kind of task is it to let the agents of the State Secretariat be idle and have nothing to do to dig the soil?

There is no technical investigation, no regular traces.

Every decision of Zhao Qi was unexpected, and he didn't understand the intention at all.

But it was still that sentence, Ye Zhiqiang clearly remembered the order of his superiors, and Zhao Qi was the leader of this operation.

He sighed deeply and quickly ordered the other agents to go and find the locust tree.

The agents scattered in the forest in twos and threes, and they all felt strange about Zhao Qi's order.

"Having a layman lead our work is of no use except to waste time."

"First I lit incense in the forest and sprinkled paper money, and now we are asked to find locust trees to dig the soil, I really don't know what the point of doing this is."

The agents said helplessly as they began to search in the forest, and sure enough, they soon found some locust trees in the forest.

The next scene is not usual.

The agents wearing special combat uniforms were digging around the locust tree at this time, and they were quite embarrassed......
