Chapter 19: The Storm Rises

readx; Early in the morning, the snow finally stopped. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe mountain behind it was surprisingly quiet, as if a heavy snowfall had buried everything. Maybe people are used to being noisy, so whenever it's very quiet,

There is always an air of terror and foreboding.

The old man who guarded the tomb didn't sleep well all night, and it seemed that because of the snow, the window of the room was not closed, and he actually got up in the morning with a little cough. After washing, my eyelids kept jumping

He seemed to be worried about something. He looked out the window, and it was white, and the trees and the ground, as well as the tombs, were covered with snow, as if they were covered with a thick layer

of quilts. He hesitated for a moment, turned around and slowly walked to a box at the head of the bed and squatted down, the box was not big, he opened the box and took out a black pistol, he looked

After looking at it, he picked up a red cloth from the box, wiped the body of the gun, took out a belt from the box, tied it to his waist, put the pistol in the holster on the belt, and closed it

Box.

Zhang Lei and his wife arrived at the chair flat when it was dark last night, although the chair flat is only 20 miles away from the lower ditch dam, but because of the snow, plus it is a climb all the way, so it is almost the same

It took most of the day to arrive. By the time they got to the five rooms, the families were ready to go to bed. People in the countryside always go to bed earlier at night, and when they go to Little Green's house, Little Green Sutra

Tossed with a high fever, after the fever subsided, I fell asleep. Grandma has been staying by Xiao Lu's bedside, and she has also begun to doze off, but she has been guarding like this, for fear that Xiao Lu will have a high fever again.

Seeing Zhang Lei and others again, grandma was indescribably happy, regardless of the fact that it was late, she hurriedly made a fire to cook, and several other families who didn't sleep also came to Xiaolu's house, and Aunt Wang's house cooked potatoes at night

At night, seeing Zhang Lei and others coming, she hurriedly went to the house to bring the unfinished boiled artichoke, the artichoke was still hot, and she also took some spicy noodles by the way, so gracious that Zhang Lei and others had a kind

The feeling of coming home. Artichoke is smooth for Zhang Ying and Liu Qing. So they barely ate much, just ate potatoes. Indeed, the artichoke is a universal dish, no

People who manage the whole world can eat it. You can cook it, fry it, steam it, fry it, and eat it no matter how you eat it, it's delicious. Especially girls, they basically prefer to eat artichokes.

Zhang Lei and his wife left very early today, so they have now arrived at the back mountain. As soon as they walked to the back mountain, only about two hundred meters away from the old man's house, the scene in front of them made him

They were taken aback. The door of the old man guarding the tomb suddenly banged, and it had been blown open, and six big men in black and two women in red, with guns in their hands and masks on their faces, immediately

rushed in, it seemed that the comer was not good, Zhang Lei asked the team members to also take out their pistols, loaded the bullets, and then chased in. Only a few gunshots were heard, and Zhang Lei and others rushed into the old people's home

When he was in the room, he had already seen two dead people, two people dressed in black and wearing masks, and the old man was hiding behind a door in the east wing, and from time to time he leaked half of his body to fight back

。 But his situation was getting worse and worse, and the two men in red were already under the cover of the continuous fire of the four men in black, and gradually approached the door where the old man was.

At this moment, Zhang Lei shouted: "Listen, the people inside, you have been surrounded, why don't you quickly put down your arms and surrender!"

Turned his head and aimed the muzzle of the gun at Zhang Lei and his party to shoot, Zhang Lei and others hurriedly dodged, and at the same time raised their guns to shoot back, the two sides shot at each other for two minutes, and the two men in red saw that the situation was not good,

He ordered his accomplices to retreat to the west courtyard wall, and at the same time blew a hole in the courtyard wall, threw several smoke bombs, and then fled.

Gu Tao said: "Chase!"

Zhang Lei said: "Don't chase, with the other party's skills, he has already gone away, and he will chase after him, go and see if the old man guarding the tomb is injured." So no one chased after him. Walk up to the old man

In front of him, Zhang Lei shouted: "Old man, are you okay?"

The old man replied: "It turned out to be you, fortunately, this old life has not been lost, thanks to a few heroes who came to the rescue, I am grateful."

Zhang Ying said: "Oh, old man, your shoulder is bleeding!" Everyone looked at it, and sure enough, the old man's left shoulder was oozing blood, but only a small part of the blood was red, most of it

It's green. Everyone looks at me, I look at you, and they are all very puzzled, but no one says it.

The old man said, "Don't get in the way, donors, please sit in the house." ”

Zhang Lei said: "The old man is serious, and we just happened to meet." ”

The old man said: "If you hadn't acted in time, I'm afraid my old life would have been gone." ”

Zhang Lei said: "Ransom the younger generation is presumptuous, who wants to kill you? The predecessor has lived in the mountains for a long time, and there is no dispute with the world, is there also an enemy?"

The old man sighed and said, "Alas, think about it carefully, a few days ago, I did offend two people, two little girls of seventeen or eighteen years old, and they told me that their father was seriously ill, I'm afraid

Soon they will die, and when their father dies, they will be buried in the back of my house. At that time, I refused, there are so many places in the back mountain where the dead can be buried, why should I bury them

Behind my house, I feel uncomfortable in my heart, and anyone who knows a little bit about feng shui knows that burying a grave like this is destroying the feng shui of my house. I didn't say it was okay at the time, those two sisters-in-law

If I didn't agree, they would have told me to die without a place to bury, and I didn't pay attention to them at the time. Who knows ...... today" The old man said this, and shook his head helplessly,

Didn't speak again.

Zhang Lei said: "Old man, do you think the two women in red clothes today are the people who quarreled with you a few days ago?"

The old man shook his head helplessly and said, "Absolutely not! The two girls who came today are thinner and the same tall figures. And the two girls I quarreled with the other day were one

The tall girl is much thinner than the two girls who came today, and she feels so thin that she is only skinny and boneless, while the short one is so fat that her eyes are narrowed

lines. So I'm sure the two girls who killed me today are definitely not the two girls who quarreled with me. ”

Zhang Lei was also very surprised: "Old man, think about it again, who else has a holiday with you?"

The old man said, "It can't be those bandits." ”

"Bandits?" Zhang Lei looked puzzled.

The old man said: "Yes, bandits, 8 years ago, four bandits came to me, ready to rob, I injured one of them in the leg, they fled, they won't come to seek revenge now." ”

Zhang Lei also nodded and said, "It's really unlikely." After all, bandits are seeking money, they can't rob money, and when they encounter a strong enemy, they first think that it is important for them to save their lives. "Everybody's ordered

The head said that he agreed with Zhang Lei's statement. Then he turned his gaze to the old man, although he did not ask the old man if he still had an enemy, but the meaning was very simple, see what the old man would say.

The old man's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had thought of an answer. Slowly, "Could it be them?" His face suddenly turned ugly, and there seemed to be some kind of fear in his eyes.

"Who?" Zhang Lei asked eagerly.

This time, the old man simply closed his eyes, showed a painful expression on his face, and did not answer Zhang Lei's question again. Zhang Lei only thought that he only consulted the old man just now, but ignored the old man

Shot in the shoulder, the warhead has not yet been removed. Thinking that the pain of the wound was aggravating, he hurriedly said: "Old man, I see that your wound has to be dealt with immediately, if you don't dislike it, I will let Li Xiaoyu give it."

You take the warhead, he is a medical school graduate and also a surgeon. In fact, Li Xiaoyu is actually a health officer in the army. For the matter of taking the warhead, it can be regarded as a family book

Collar.

The old man said: "Where Zhang Yingying said, the old man couldn't ask for it. Brother Li, please just do it, the old man is grateful."

Li Xiaoyu said: "Old man, please hold back the pain." ”

The old man said: "It's okay, you can use the knife!"

Li Xiaoyu carefully operated on the old man, looking a little nervous, not that he was unfamiliar with the business, but in the face of such a strange-looking old man, most of his blood was green

colored, so I'm afraid that something will happen. He gently cut the wound with the sharp scalpel he carried with him, and finally took out the bullet, Zhang Lei looked at the warhead carefully, it should

It is an American civilian pistol, and the biggest feature of this pistol is that it can load 30 rounds. Li Xiaoyu finally bandaged the old man's wounds.

The old man said, "It's really troublesome for you. The heroes are extraordinary, and they all carry guns, and they are old and presumptuous, dare to ask if the heroes are armed police?"

Zhang Lei said: "The old man doesn't have to be polite, I really can't hide the old man's insight, we are indeed armed police, and we are temporarily transferred to the Criminal Police Criminal Investigation Department, just for a strange thing." Zhang Lei will see you again

It's not good to hide his identity, but he just speculated that it was the identity of the armed police. so as not to be questioned again.

Huang Guijun said: "This is our Captain Zhang, Zhang Lei, this is Gu Tao, Deputy Captain." ”

The old man said: "Disrespectful, disrespectful, a few people visited the cold house again, but the old man committed a crime?"

Zhang Lei said: "Ah, the old man is too worried, we are here just to understand the situation, there are a few questions I want to ask the old man, I hope the old man will tell the truth." ”

The old man said: "Captain Zhang, just ask if you have any questions, if the old man knows, he will definitely not hide anything, but the ugly words are in front of him, the old man has lived in the mountains for a long time and does not know the outside world, so."

I'm afraid it won't help much. ”

Zhang Lei asked: "Do your predecessors know about Hook Soul Slope?"

The old man said: "I know, I have passed by the Soul Hook Slope twice. ”

"Does that senior know that it is haunted, and there are ghosts blocking the way at night?"

"I don't know about this, I didn't encounter the so-called ghosts when I passed by there. ”

"When did the senior pass by there?"

"Oh, it was 8 years ago. ”

"No wonder, it has only been haunted in the last two or three years, and some of the people who pass by have disappeared, some have died, and very few have come back safe and sound, and then people dare not pass by at night

Hook the soul slope. I guess where the ghosts in this world come from, there must be someone who is playing tricks and pretending to be ghosts to harm people. So our superiors sent us to investigate. ”

The old man smiled and said: "What Captain Zhang said is very reasonable, but in the vast universe, there are no wonders, and we don't dare to assert whether there are ghosts in this world." I don't know Zhang

What's the takeaway for the captain?

Zhang Lei said: "I was at a loss, I thought that my seniors could solve my doubts, but since my seniors didn't know, I wouldn't ask more." Say goodbye, seniors take care of their injuries and pay attention to their bodies

Body. ”

Zhang Lei knew that if the old man didn't want to say, it would be useless to ask.

The old man said: "I'm really sorry, I'm ashamed that I couldn't help Captain Zhang." ”

Zhang Lei said: "Don't get in the way, take care of the seniors, let's go." After that, he really raised his feet and left, and he didn't look back, and the group had to follow.

Zhang Lei said: "Gu Tao, have you checked the two black-clothed men in the yard?"

Gu Tao said: "I have already checked it, they all look the same, very terrifying." ”

Zhang Lei said: "What does it mean that they all look the same?

Gu Tao said: "It seems that the face has been reshaped, or it has been disfigured, because the face is full of scars, criss-crossed, and no one can recognize that it is a face." ”

Zhang Lei said: "Maybe they deliberately did this, so that people can't easily recognize it." ”

Not far from the old man's house, they saw a man they knew all too well. But it's unbelievable that she would come to this back mountain.
