Chapter 288: The Legend of Doom Mountain, the Great Demon Haunts
The night passed, and the time came the next morning.
Chen Yi and Fang Shuyu got up very late, and it was nearly ten o'clock before they finished washing up and were ready for breakfast.
The hotel's buffet breakfast has ended, but the high-end hotel service of thousands of nights is naturally very good, and the guests directly made two copies and delivered them to the room in a word.
After eating, Chen Yi received a call from Jiang Fanlei.
"Say."
After a cigarette after dinner, Chen Yi came to the balcony window and connected his mobile phone.
Jiang Fanlei: "Chen Yi, I'll pick you up later, which hotel are you in?" ”
Chen Yi: "By car, right?" ”
Jiang Fanlei: "Yes, Mount Eshan is very remote and the altitude is not low, fortunately, the owner of the manor has opened up a mountain road that can be driven up the mountain, so we will drive up directly." ”
Chen Yi: "If it were me, I would directly build a few ropeways, and all of them would be built to open the way, and I would be missing this money?" ”
Jiang Fanlei: "What you said, if someone builds a ropeway, you have to question why you don't open a mountain road?" Of course, people have their own ideas, so much care. ”
Chen Yi smiled: "This is also true, it makes sense, who came up with the name Eshan, like a disaster, blame it is unlucky." ”
Jiang Fanlei: "Don't talk about it, I think the name is very good, maverick, and it is easy for people to remember it when you hear it...... Okay, don't talk nonsense, where do you live? ”
Chen Yi: "The address will be sent to your mobile phone." ”
Jiang Fanlei: "Okay, I'll see you later." ”
Chen Yi: "I'll see you later." ”
The phone hung up, Chen Yi smoked a cigarette and looked out the window at the bustling capital, high-rise buildings, and busy traffic.
The strange Ershan, the unique manor, and the suspicious Zhong Muping, the experience of the two detectives and criminal policemen made him intuitive: I am afraid this trip will not be peaceful.
At half past eleven, Jiang Fanlei called again to say that he had arrived, and Chen Yi and Fang Shuyu got dressed and went out.
At the door of the hotel, a gray off-road vehicle full of power was already waiting, the main driver's window was open, and the co-pilot was Jiang Fanlei.
"Chen Yi! Here and here! Jiang Fanlei probed forward and beckoned.
Zhong Muping hurriedly opened the door and got out of the car, walked over and stretched out his hand to Chen Yi, and said very politely: "Captain Chen, hello, hello, I am Zhong Muping, Jiang Fanlei's friend in business, and I have a good relationship in private." ”
A friend's friend is also a friend, Zhong Muping obviously knows how to get close to Chen Yitao, and using Jiang Fanlei is the most direct way.
The only son of the Chen Group, he already knew about it, and his heart was even more surprised.
It is quite unusual for a rich second generation of this level to choose to be a criminal policeman.
Out of politeness, Chen Yi smiled and shook Zhong Muping's hand, while looking at it carefully.
People can look good, Zhong Muping's whole person gives him a sense of multifaceted, not only the shrewdness of a businessman, but also the restraint and subtlety of a young man, and he can also see ambition in his eyes.
Chen Yi had been wary of it before, and it was even more intense at the moment, but the surface was silent.
Decryption requires a process to see the result, what is the purpose of Zhong Muping's invitation, what kind of person is he, what he wants in the end, these questions should have answers after arriving at the place.
The answer can be simple or complex, and it may be expected or unexpected.
"Hello, Mr. Chung." Chen Yi smiled and spoke.
After letting go of his hand, Zhong Muping looked at Fang Shuyu beside him, did not rashly stretch out his hand, and praised: "This is the police sister-in-law, I now know who the sinking fish and the wild goose are describing." ”
Fang Shuyu's heart did not fluctuate, and a smile rose: "Mr. Zhong has won the award." ”
Zhong Muping: "It's really heartfelt, it's not a compliment, let's talk on the road, there must be five or six hours on the road." ”
Chen Yi: "Okay. ”
A few people got into the car and left the hotel and drove towards the north of the Imperial City.
When he came to the highway and the speed of the car was fixed, Chen Yi took the lead in asking his own questions.
"Mr. Zhong, how many people are there in the Eshan Manor this time?"
Zhong Muping replied with a smile: "Counting us, there are about seven or eight people, among them is my wife, she is waiting there." ”
Chen Yi: "Is it just an ordinary party?" ”
Zhong Muping: "Sort of." ”
Chen Yi: "Who organized it?" ”
Zhong Muping: "It's my wife, but some people want to come on their own initiative, and they have made an appointment for a long time in advance, and the owner of the manor doesn't want to be disturbed by outsiders, so there are not many opportunities to go." ”
He speaks in a measured manner, turning "qualified" into "opportunity", which does not make people feel uncomfortable.
Chen Yigang wanted to continue asking, but Zhong Muping added: "Oh yes, Captain Chen, I'll meet at the place later, don't tell my wife that you are a policeman, she ...... Hey, I don't like the police. ”
"Huh?" Hearing this, Jiang Fanlei, the co-pilot, turned his head and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Zhong, why didn't you tell me about this before?" What do you mean by not liking the police, what's wrong with the police? ”
He felt that Chen Yi had been insulted.
Chen Yi also wanted to know, and looked at Zhong Muping who was driving in the back seat.
Zhong Muping smiled bitterly: "I'm really embarrassed, my wife has dealt with the police before, it should be a little unpleasant, she didn't say much to me, in short, she doesn't have a lot of interest in the police, Captain Chen, I'm sorry." ”
Chen Yi spoke: "It's okay, it's understandable, I just said that my family is a company." ”
Zhong Muping said gratefully: "This is the best, thank you very much." ”
Chen Yi: "Mr. Zhong is polite, they are all friends, and they should be considerate of each other, I don't know what Mr. Zhong's wife's name is?" Is it convenient to say? ”
Zhong Muping said with a smile: "What's inconvenient to say about this, it's a coincidence that she and Captain Chen have the same surname, Chen Shiran." ”
"Chen Shiran? What a name. Chen Yi pretended to play with his mobile phone and sent the three words Chen Shiran to Shi Xin, "Poetry, Zhiye, Ran, Burn, Mr. Zhong's wife seems to be a vigorous and resolute strong woman." ”
Zhong Muping was surprised: "Captain Chen still knows how to measure words?" You're right, Shiran's personality is indeed quite strong, and the company was also created by her, and I later resigned to do it with her. ”
Jiang Fanlei turned around and said suspiciously: "Chen Yi, when did you learn to read words and tell fortunes, give me the calculation?" ”
Chen Yi coughed lightly: "I said nonsense, I didn't expect to guess correctly, small talk, pure idle chat." ”
Jiang Fanlei lost interest, and several people in the car laughed.
Not long after, when the new Chen Shiran's personal information was sent.
Chen Shiran, 33 years old, the main shareholder of Yujia Car Rental Company, has a net worth of about 20 million to 50 million, although it cannot be compared with the Chen Group, but it is also a very successful female entrepreneur.
"Eat soft rice?"
Chen Yi's eyes moved slightly, his strong personality and his holding company made Zhong Muping's married life not very good under normal circumstances.
Love?
Even if there is love, there are strong and weak parties in the marriage, and now it seems that Zhong Muping is obviously on the weak side.
Does this have anything to do with the other party's invitation to you?
Unbeknownst to him, suspicion and analysis had become a habit for him, and anything that was unreasonable and wrong would make him pay special attention.
"Mr. Zhong, who are the others?" Chen Yi asked again.
Zhong Muping: "I don't know. ”
Chen Yi: "Oh...... All right. ”
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know It's more likely to be fake, otherwise what would you do if you invite yourself to Eshan Manor?
He has now begun to look at this matter with a black belly, who made Zhong Muping's behavior so strange.
Regarding why Chen Yi was invited, Zhong Muping gave his own answer on the way.
First of all, he heard about Chen Yi's deeds, and he naturally had a filter for the criminal police with strong ability to solve cases, and of course he wanted to know each other after arriving in Yangcheng, but he didn't expect that the other party was a good friend with Jiang Fanlei.
Originally, he wanted Jiang Fanlei to introduce him to make a friend, but unfortunately, Chen Yi was already preparing to fly to the Imperial City.
So another coincidence came, there was an exchange meeting in the imperial city recently, and he invited Jiang Fanlei to participate, which was called mutual help between friends.
After arriving in the imperial city, the last coincidence appeared, the hilltop manor was rare to welcome, Zhong Muping invited Jiang Fanlei, and brought Chen Yi by the way.
Chen Yi listened to this rhetoric and it was over, there are many coincidences in the world, but it is inevitable to study deeply.
As for why the other party went to Yangcheng for no reason, Chen Yi did not ask.
It's good to know it in your heart.
Half of the way passed, and the three of them chatted about business, mainly about Jiang Fanlei, and with him joining the topic, the atmosphere was much more harmonious.
"It's a pity, if Captain Chen takes over the family's business, the future of the Chen Group will be great."
Zhong Muping's praise for Chen Yi has not stopped, but it is not deliberate, Chen Yi's dual identity is already eye-catching, and it is normal to want to stutter.
Jiang Fanlei originally thought that Zhong Muping had a request for Chen Yi, but after waiting for several hours without seeing any movement, he no longer cared about his lack of interest and began to look forward to the end of the trip.
Like Chen Yifang Shuyu, he is also looking forward to Eshan Manor, and everyone has a curiosity.
The vehicle continued north to Wanxian County, and finally left the city and came to the wilderness, and after dozens of kilometers, the vehicle began to climb.
Chen Yi looked sideways at the windshield, there was already a mountain road ahead, but the road conditions were not good, and the road was narrow and could not be cared.
In some places, it is even necessary to pass at a speed of less than 10 kilometers per hour.
On the other side, it's the bottom of the mountain.
If you fall, you will have to be injured if you don't die, which is very dangerous.
In this regard, Chen Yi couldn't help frowning, and asked Fang Shuyu to fasten his seat belt while keeping an eye on Zhong Muping.
He has a feeling of handing over his life to others, as long as Zhong Muping's steering wheel moves, the whole car will be unlucky, although he doesn't know Zhong Muping can't have a grudge, but who knows if it will hurt the pond fish.
"This is the Eshan Mountain, it is very steep, and there are many legends, I heard Shiran talk about it."
While driving, Zhong Muping said with a smile.
Chen Yi and the two didn't speak, and Jiang Fanlei asked, "What legend?" ”
Zhong Muping smiled mysteriously and sold Guanzi: "It's just a legend, it must be fake, I'm afraid that you will be afraid if you say it." ”
Jiang Fanlei grinned: "Afraid of a ball, is it a haunting?" ”
Zhong Muping said: "It's not a ghost, it's a big demon." ”
Jiang Fanlei was curious: "Let's talk about it specifically." ”
Zhong Muping: "To put it simply, many years ago, animal skeletons and human skeletons often appeared on Mount E, and at first the nearby villagers thought that they had died from the mouth of a fierce beast, but later someone saw it with their own eyes...... A monkey squatted on a tree, quickly turning into white bones at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it became a monster entrenched in the mountains and could devour flesh and blood. ”
After listening, Jiang Fanlei complained in disappointment: "That's it? That's it? I thought it would be wonderful. ”
Zhong Muping said with a smile: "Eshan was not called Eshan before, it was precisely because of this legend that it was renamed Eshan, which means that there is a disaster on the mountain, I don't know when it was changed, anyway, it has been a long, long time, and it is estimated that it is possible for hundreds of thousands of years." ”
Jiang Fanlei: "That...... Has there been a rumored thing in the mountains for so many years? ”
Zhong Muping: "It's not ......"
Jiang Fanlei waved his hand: "Pull it down." ”
This kind of conversation is just for fun, and the two didn't talk much.
In the back seat, Chen Yi has been playing with his mobile phone, at this time the signal is already very weak, the network speed is slow, he wants to search for the legend of Eshan and the name change problem, but it has not been brushed out for a long time, so he gave up.
Whether it is a ghost or a demon, it must be fake, Pang Qian's case is an example, he didn't think much about it, it was just curiosity.
The owner of the manor should also know about this, but he definitely won't believe it, otherwise he wouldn't have built the manor here.
The vehicle continues to drive.
