Chapter 102: The Ambition of the Bird?
After Chen Qingqing made such a fuss, Tu Cheng began to get serious.
Share what you know with him.
Beiliu Zen Monastery has jurisdiction over the border of Beizhou and Liuzhou.
There have also been a number of similar disappearances in the two states.
However, after the investigation of the Beiliu Zen Monastery found nothing, the Zen elder finally closed the case hastily on the basis of human tooth trafficking.
Only Tu Cheng was skeptical.
He visited 18 cities in two states and synthesized the caliber of all the victims.
Coupled with the information provided by the mortal monasteries everywhere, they have something in common.
And came to a conclusion that is not conclusive: every time the population disappears, there will be a folk art troupe known as the "Jiaodi Opera Paradise" performing various "magic" and "magic tricks" nearby.
The troupe did not stay in the world long in the cities.
Mostly eighteen days.
And with the disappearance of the troupe, there will be no more large-scale disappearances.
"This troupe has appeared in Nine True City?"
"Appeared!"
Tu Cheng said with great certainty:
"I once followed the footsteps of the troupe into the paradise of their mouths, and all over the world, they were all mortals!"
Mu Nan frowned: "If it was a mortal committing a crime, there would not be no traces." No matter how bad it is, you have to show some horses' feet. Could it be a coincidence this time? ”
Tu Cheng shook his head.
"One city can be regarded as a coincidence, more than 1,900 people disappeared in the eighteen cities of Beiliu and Liangzhou, and there are troupes, which are exactly the same as Jiuzhen City. Do you think it's still a coincidence? ”
Mu Nan felt that he was reasonable.
There are too many coincidences, and that's the truth!
"It shouldn't be a coincidence! Can you still find a place for the troupe? ”
"I can guess."
Tu Cheng squatted on the ground, picked up a branch at random, and wrote and painted.
"The troupe performed in the city for the first two days, and then stayed in the south, east, and west of the city for four days each, so it can be inferred that as expected, the next appearance should be in the north of Jiuzhen City."
Mu Nan guessed that if the disappearance of the person was related to the theater.
Then, the first two days of performing in the city must be to gather popularity.
Then move out of the city to facilitate the crime.
The only thing that doesn't make sense is that Jiuzhen City lost two more children today.
It stands to reason that everyone in every household is in danger, and there is no one to go out.
How does the troupe do it?
Under the wind and crime, no one was alarmed?
Only evil people have such means!
But Jiuzhen City looks like there is no trace of demonic energy.
Big head for a while.
Mu Nan asked, "When will the troupe start performing?" ”
"Sunset, sunrise, there should be no other changes."
In addition to acrobatics, there are also horns, illusions, games, etc.
Whether it's the visual effects or the secrets, it's normal to perform at night.
The only thing that can't be said is "too much coincidence".
Mu Nan nodded.
"Let's go back to the city first, share the information with the rest of the team, and then discuss."
"Anyone else with you?"
"We are a group of six people, and with this kind of information, we naturally have to communicate with the rest of the team, and then consider it comprehensively based on our own information."
Tu Cheng waved his hand, slightly hesitating.
"I'm used to walking alone, I don't like crowded occasions very much, why don't I wait for you in the thatched pavilion in the north of the city, if there is other information, you can tell me, if not, you should watch a hundred operas to open your eyes."
Mu Nan is not difficult for strongmen.
After seeing Tucheng leave, he returned to the Daofu Division alone with the information he had obtained.
When I entered the door, I found that everyone had returned.
He was the last.
It's just that those playful eyes make him always feel a little "creepy".
Don't think about it.
It must have been Chen Qingqing who said something that should not be said.
Such as the wild, the battlefield, the dragon yang, the bald, and the like.
So much so that the moment he entered the house, Xie Huaiwei subconsciously took a step back.
It's as if he's done something amazing.
Only Ji Boda had light in his eyes.
A different light.
"Uncle Pastor has returned, have you gotten any clues?"
Ji Boda asked, relieving the different atmosphere in time.
Mu Nan originally thought about the cause and effect to make it clear, but now he didn't know where to start, so he had to pick the key point and said:
"I have a friend ......"
Chen Qingqing had a strong desire to perform today, and took the opportunity to continue: "Everyone knows! ”
Mu Nan said in a deep voice: "A normal friend! ”
"Uncle Shi said it was normal, it must be normal!"
Xie Huaigu didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, so he interjected.
seems to be a relief, but it is actually a salary increase on fire.
Mu Nan was anxious to reveal the information and discuss, only glanced at him, and continued:
"He gave me a piece of information worth scrutinizing."
Who would have thought that Wen Yuanzheng also began to join in the fun.
patted his head and said, "Is it push or knock?" ”
The two nuns present turned their faces away with red ears.
Ji Boda and Xie Huaigu's eyes became even more meaningful.
Mu Nan was depressed by what you said and what I said, drank a cup of tea, and comforted himself: People who are dark in their hearts will never see the light.
Faster Speech:
"Eighteen cities in the two states of North and Liuzhou have all had such disappearances, and the number of missing people is close to two thousand!"
Ji Boda was stunned for a moment and began to face it squarely.
"Beiliu Erzhou, relying on the Beiliu Zen Temple, there are eighteen cities where such things happen, and I ask Uncle Shi to explain it in detail."
At last, the crowd listened to him calmly.
He was pleased.
Then, he finished the information he got from Tu Cheng's mouth word for word, and added: "The troupe is all mortals, and Master Tu Cheng has been there. ”
In the eyes of Taoist cultivators, what Buddha said was extremely unbelievable, and even some sneered.
The difference in the cultivation system makes Taoist cultivators feel that Buddha cultivation has no real skills except for demagoguery.
Therefore, all those present, without exception, ignored his addition.
Ji Boda briefly recounted the information obtained by several people.
Very little useful.
Xie Huaiwei and Xie Huaigu didn't even knock on the door of the victim.
I forcibly opened a household, and I didn't get any useful clues.
Mu Nan guessed that there was something wrong with the way they pushed the door.
At this time, you should find a door with children and no men to push in order to get the information you want.
He has experience in this.
And Chen Qingqing found nothing except seeing him and Tu Cheng's "indecent".
It's no wonder that the wolf smoke is billowing and the yin aura is shrouded, and anyone who sees it will avoid it.
Wen Yuanzheng turned around the vicious outside of the city three times, and did not find a single wisp of yin qi!
In this way, Mu Nan's clue that is not a clue has become the only clue.
"A dead horse should be a live horse doctor, and we'll go and find out at night!"
Ji Boda is the final word.
"I just don't know where the troupe is performing."
"According to Tu Cheng's calculation, it should be in the north of the city, and he is already waiting for me in the Maoting...... Guys. ”
Although Mu Nan was afraid of causing ambiguity, he deliberately added the word "we" at the end, and still smashed the matter that had already been turned over again.
"It's nice to have someone waiting!"
"Whoever it is!"
Wen Yuanzheng patted him on the shoulder and attached it to his ear:
"Brother Nan, the bird's ambition is to know the bird! They will never truly understand your greatness! ”
Mu Nan naively thought that someone finally believed that he was innocent, and he was still sighing in his heart.
"It's worthy of being my brother, I love to hear this, say more!"
"The man of the grass horse, you are mighty and majestic!"
Wen Yuan was humming a minor tune, and what he thought was mysterious and chic sideways swept past the council hall.
"It's a man who sets horses! Set horses! Set horses! Set horses! ”
Mu Nan's wail echoed in the Daofu Division.
Prolonged
……
The wind is blowing.
It's huge.
The thatched pavilion in the north of the city was already dilapidated, and the few straws left were scraped like arrows.
After a while, it will be bare.
Under the thatched pavilion, the group greeted Tu Cheng "friendly".
The floating eyes made Mu Nan embarrassed again.
He couldn't help but ask himself: why did he participate in this mission.
"Uncle Pastor, please keep up!"
One more person to the team.
Monk Tucheng is not old-fashioned.
On the contrary, after a short time, he became one with everyone.
This makes the figure who follows far behind seem more and more lonely.
The loneliness of not being understood.
Fortunately, several people walked on the main road, and it was not far from the theater.
It looks like about five miles.
The five words "Jiao Dang Theater" were exposed in front of several people.
The theater is located on a relatively wide flat land, surrounded by low fences.
At a glance.
