Tang Xi sat in the car flipping through folders.
The information given by Fu Xiao is very detailed.
Guan Li is a lover of outdoor activities, commonly known as a donkey friend. Every time he goes to a large scenic spot, he doesn't like to take the well-built viewing roads. Instead, he creates a new route from a place where there is no road.
Three years ago, Guan Li came to Luming Mountain alone, and at first he still contacted Fu Xiao, but from the third day on, he never got through with his mobile phone.
Because Guan Li likes to go in and out of no man's land alone, for safety, he uses a satellite phone, and there is no situation where there is no signal. However, the fact is that his mobile phone was not found through satellite positioning, as if it had evaporated out of thin air.
Of course, so are people.
It is already the third year.
"You said, since the family is so rich, what's wrong with doing it? You insist on risking your own life?" Tang Xi asked puzzled.
"It's probably because I didn't lack for anything since I was a child, so I feel that life is lacking in fun and I want to seek excitement." Pei Qingzhi replied.
Tang Xi turned her head and glanced at him.
"However, since I was a child, the stimulation is enough." Pei Qingzhi shrugged.
Tang Xi couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"A few years ago, I heard from my uncle that they were supposed to get married after Fu Xiao graduated from university." Pei Qingzhi added, "The Fang family and the Fu family are family friends, and their childhood sweethearts have always had a good relationship, and everyone takes it for granted. .”
"That's really a pity." Tang Xi said casually, and turned a page back in the information, raising her eyebrows involuntarily.
But I saw that it was a map of Luming Mountain, but a large part of it was painted in red, accounting for about one-third of the entire map.
"This is the area where the search and rescue teams invited by the two companies searched for three months after Guan Li disappeared." Pei Qingzhi sighed. This fee."
"But still can't find it after searching like this?" Tang Xi was a little surprised.
"No one was alive, no dead body was found, and none of the outdoor items he brought into the mountain were found." Pei Qingzhi said, "At that time, the energy of the search team had reached its limit, even if the Guan family was willing to add more money, they would not Ken will continue to search."
"It's inevitable." Tang Xi understood, pointed to the bright red area, and said helplessly, "The undeveloped area of Luming Mountain is steep, with lush vegetation, and it is not easy to walk. It is absolutely impossible for transportation. And Guan Li is a normal person, even if he had to run, he would not be able to get out of this area in a few days, so there is really no need to search further."
"But it's just strange here." Pei Qingzhi said in a deep voice, "The rescue team searched so carefully that they almost turned over the soil in this area in three months. There are no traces to be found.”
"Could it be that he didn't go into the mountain at all, but went somewhere else?" Tang Xi blurted out.
"No." Pei Qingzhi shook his head, took out his phone and sent her a video.
Tang Xi was taken aback, downloaded and clicked play.
The picture was pitch black, as if it was outside, in a place with no light at all.
After a while, a beam of light appeared in the lens, which seemed to be a spiked flashlight, and then came a young and energetic voice: "Xiaoxiao, I saw a sika deer, what luck! Let me take a picture for you... um, This place is very suitable for outdoor adventures, and next time I invite A Ling and the others to camp together—hey, it’s just ahead, so I won’t talk about it if I want to keep quiet.”
Suddenly, a sika deer appeared in the camera.
Frightened by the light of the flashlight, the little deer jumped and ran into the night.
"Ah, I'm running away again, I'm really scared." The voice in the video rang again, and then the camera shook for a while, switching to the front camera, and the screen was suddenly filled with a face.
It was a very handsome boy with dyed yellow hair, wearing a single earring, and a dark green jacket on his upper body, which looked decent.
"Okay, I'm going back to the tent too, and I'll show you the picture tomorrow during the day, Xiaoxiao good night~" The boy blew a kiss, and then the video ended.
"This is Guan Li." Pei Qingzhi waited for her to finish watching before saying, "This video has been appraised by the technical department, and there is no trace of modification, and the vegetation and sika deer appearing in the video are indeed the unique environment of Luming Mountain."
"It's so strange, I'm a little interested." Tang Xi smiled slightly.
"Where do you want to start looking?" Pei Qingzhi asked, "If you need to go into the mountains, you have to prepare outdoor supplies first, and your clothes are not enough."
"Those will trouble you." Tang Xi said casually.
"It should." Pei Qingzhi smiled, and immediately sent a message to Xiang Jiuming, ordering his reliable subordinates to prepare a complete set of outdoor climbing supplies, "The things should be delivered in the evening, shall we go to the mountain tomorrow morning?"
"Us?" Tang Xi was taken aback.
"I'll go too." Pei Qingzhi said seriously, "I'm quite familiar with the environment of Luming Mountain, and I come here a few times a year, and you're helping Fu Xiao, I can't let you enter the mountain alone."
"Well... that's okay." Tang Xi nodded after thinking about it, "However, it's not tomorrow. We'll go into the mountains tonight, after dark."
"Tonight?" Pei Qingzhi asked in surprise, "Will it be inconvenient?"
"It's convenient." Tang Xi closed the folder with a snap, and smiled, "Besides, I can't find it during the day."
"What do you mean... can't find it during the day?" Pei Qingzhi's expression was a little ugly.
"If you can find a normal way, you won't invite me, will you?" Tang Xi winked at him.
Pei Qingzhi was speechless.
Sure enough, Xiang Jiuming's work efficiency was as high as ever, and a full set of equipment was delivered before dinner, all of which were the best things that could be found within the time limit.
Tang Xi squatted in front of a pile of items to pick and choose, and said, "You don't need to bring things for camping, such as tents, and you don't need to go in at night to sleep in the tent. Bring some dry food and water, and a signal flare for help." .Um...and the medicine bandages too. By the way, take another thick bag, a bigger one!"
Xiang Jiuming found out what she needed and packed them into the travel backpack one by one. Hearing the last sentence, he couldn't help but ask, "Miss Tang, what are you going to use for it?"
"Oh, if you find Guan Li, take his bones back no matter what, and keep a pocket for backup." Tang Xi replied.
"..." Xiang Jiuming's face turned blue.
"Just this." Pei Qingzhi casually picked it up to carry
Chapter 94
The snakeskin bags that these supplies came in were rolled up and stuffed into the backpack.
"What else is there?" Tang Xi turned around and asked.
"Take it." Pei Qingzhi handed her a bottle of potion, and under her puzzled gaze, explained, "It's midsummer with powerful mosquito repellent, if you don't spray the medicine in the woods, half your life will be killed by mosquito bites. "
"Oh." Tang Xi took the bottle, took a set of jackets that are convenient for jungle activities, and went to the bathroom of the hotel where he stayed to change.
"Boss Pei, do you really want to go into the mountains at night?" Xiang Jiuming asked anxiously, "Is this...too dangerous? Why don't you bring bodyguards?"
"No need." Pei Qingzhi shook his head.
Anyway, even if you encounter danger and the bodyguards are unreliable, it is not something ordinary people can deal with, so it is better not to scare people out of trouble. As for himself—he touched the spiritual power gun lying quietly in the pocket of his coat, and smiled slightly.
"Don't worry, you won't lose Mr. Pei." Tang Xi's voice came from behind.
Xiang Jiuming smiled awkwardly, turned around, and saw a bright light in his eyes.
After the girl changed her clothes, she rolled up the ponytail that she usually tied casually and put it on the back of her head, making her look cleaner and more heroic.
"How is it?" Tang Xi noticed the gazes of the two, spread his hands openly, and turned around.
"Not bad." Xiang Jiuming said dryly.
"Handsome!" Pei Qing praised.
"..." Xiang Jiuming couldn't help complaining, Mr. Pei, how can you describe a girl as handsome... Well, she is indeed quite handsome!
Pei Qingzhi also took a set of jackets to change into. When he returned to the box, the waiter had already delivered the ordered meals.
"This looks delicious." Tang Xi smiled.
"Speaking of which, the investigation team may delay the hunting and killing of wild animals in the restaurant on Luming Mountain. After all, if there is a human life, it must be dealt with first." Pei Qingzhi remembered.
"It's okay, I've already received retribution, but the price is really heavy." Tang Xi sighed.
"The child is innocent after all." Xiang Jiuming interjected.
"Seven years old, you can't be completely innocent." Tang Xi said calmly, "In such a family, even if the child is not sensible, but after all, he grew up eating those things, how could he be innocent at all?" Accounting for cause and effect. In the final analysis, adults commit evil and bring disaster to future generations."
Xiang Jiuming thought for a while, but couldn't speak.
I ate everything, how could it be possible that I could easily pass it off without knowing it, but it is embarrassing to die so terribly.
"Although the ingredients in this store come from a clean source, but..." Pei Qingzhi looked at the plate of braised pork on the table with a wry smile, "I have seen such a scene this morning, why can you still eat it so deliciously?"
"Aren't you surprised? There are all kinds of strange corpses killed by ghosts and monsters. How can I care about them one by one." Tang Xi took a bite of the fat and thin braised pork, squinted his eyes with happiness, and said after a while, "I last time In the forensic office of the City Bureau, I saw Sister Wanyi eating braised pig intestines for supper while facing the dissected corpse."
"Ugh..." Xiang Jiuming imagined that scene, and couldn't help his stomach churning.
"It's useless." Tang Xi rolled his eyes at him, "A big man, are you afraid of this?"
Xiang Jiuming wants to cry but has no tears. It's not because he's afraid, but because he's disgusted, okay? So a girl who can do forensic medicine is really amazing, of course, so is the Miss Tianshi in front of her.
"Eat more if you like it." Pei Qingzhi put the whole plate of braised pork in front of Tang Xi.
"Yeah." Tang Xi nodded with a smile, puffing her cheeks like a little hamster.
Pei Qingzhi couldn't help laughing, every time she ate at the same table with Tang Xi, there was always a feeling that those ordinary dishes became particularly delicious, presumably she must be very popular with the chef.
After dinner, it was getting dark.
Xiang Jiuming drove them to the foot of Luming Mountain, still worried.
"It's okay. If everything goes well, I'll be back early tomorrow morning." Tang Xi comforted and got out of the car.
With his travel bag on his back, Pei Qingzhi checked his equipment one last time, especially confirming the signal of the satellite phone.
everything is normal.
"Let's go." Tang Xi looked around and chose a direction directly.
Because it is still at the foot of the mountain, the terrain is relatively flat and the trees are sparse, so it is still relatively easy to walk. It's just that under the cover of night, the mountains without light pollution look extraordinarily dark, but tonight is still a moonless night.
Pei Qingzhi turned on the portable strong light to illuminate the way ahead, and said, "This is the way Guan Li used to go into the mountains, but when he got to the depths, he didn't know which way he went. Even if there were any traces, it would have been three years later. I can't see it."
"What's the rush?" Tang Xi relaxed with her hands behind her back, as if she was here for an outing.
"It's just strange. If you say everything goes well, you can come back in the morning—" Pei Qingzhi hesitated before saying, "Guan Li disappeared on the third day. In one night, can you walk to the distance where he disappeared?"
"If he disappeared normally, he would have been found by the rescue team." Tang Xi shrugged, "So, the distance doesn't matter."
"Then what should we do?" Pei Qingzhi asked curiously.
"Hmm..." Tang Xi took out the engagement ring from Fu Xiao from his pocket, flicked it into the air—
"Om—" With a clear sound, the ring suddenly emitted a light after being thrown to the highest point, and then trembled violently.
"If Fu Xiao is not lying, and Guan Li really has deep affection for her, then this ring contains a strong obsession." Tang Xi raised her head, fixed her eyes on the ring, and said slowly, "Perseverance Nian will take us to find its owner."
"So smart?" Before Pei Qingzhi could finish his sentence, he saw the ring seemed to be alive, and rushed towards it in a certain direction.
"Follow me!" Tang Xi said immediately before she had time to say more.
The speed of the ring is very fast, but Tang Xi has been exercising his physical fitness according to the method of his previous life in recent years, and Pei Qingzhi has also practiced since childhood, so it is not too difficult to keep up with this speed.
"Xiaoxi, isn't this direction a bit wrong?" Pei Qingzhi said while running.
Because the light from the ring was like a guiding light, he had already put away the bright lights.
Tang Xi frowned and said nothing.
She deliberately chose the road that Guan Li entered the mountain, but this route... seems to be heading towards the viewing area
Didn't you say that you never take the well-built viewing road
Having said that, Luming Mountain is also considered a popular scenic spot, especially in this season, when there are more tourists coming to escape the summer heat, and many people even stay at the farmhouse on the top of the mountain for two months. If Guan Li enters the scenic spot, no one will notice.
Ring was like a lost child desperate to get back to the adults, pausing a few times as if looking for direction, but quickly moving on again.
"We seem to be going around in circles." Pei Qingzhi said suddenly.
Today's speed no longer requires running, and it just happens to stop to take a breath.
"It's not that we're going around in circles, it's Guan Li." A smile appeared on Tang Xi's lips, "The obsession follows the place Guan Li passed by. Three years ago, that person must be the same as us today. You can’t go out in circles here.”
"Ghost hitting the wall?" Pei Qingzhi hesitated.
"Well, it's just a man-made ghost hitting the wall." Tang Xi said, and with a wave of his hand, the spiritual force pulled the ring back into his palm.
The ring danced in her hand, as if expressing displeasure.
"This place looks familiar." Tang Xi stopped and looked around.
"Here..." Pei Qingzhi thought for a while, and said with some uncertainty, "It seems that it is not far from the place where I picked you up by helicopter yesterday."
"The answer is correct." Tang Xi took out the Soul Cultivation Pearl, and with a wave of his hand, released the white wolf inside.
"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" , seemed to be begging for mercy.
"It looks like you're recovering well." Tang Xi nodded in satisfaction, but turned her face the next moment, turned her spiritual power into a whip, and whipped it, "What are you pretending to be dead, I just beat you back to your original shape, and didn't break your body." Daoist practice, speak human words!"
"Master, please forgive me!" The white wolf trembled even more, and as expected, he spit out human words, his eyes faded from the blood, and returned to a green color, with tears streaming down his face, which made people see it from the wolf's face. Wronged Baba.
Pei Qingzhi's eyes widened. Perhaps the thrill of seeing a ghost was not as shocking as the shock of a wolf speaking human words.
Tang Xi squatted down, touched the soft fur of the white wolf, and said with satisfaction: "It's a good scarf material."
"No, no, master, master! I am willing to be your pet. I will do whatever you say. Don't kill me!" The white wolf was about to cry.
"When you killed people, why didn't you think that one day you would be arrested, skinned and cramped, and made into a scarf?" Tang Xi sneered.
"I don't. I'm a demon who has cultivated hard. I dream that I will be able to return to my hometown one day. I won't kill people!" The white wolf hurriedly screamed.
"Oh, then tell me, what's the matter with the wronged soul on your body?" Tang Xi said.
"It was poured in by someone!" White Wolf shouted without hesitation, "Three years ago, it was poured in by a woman!"
"A woman? Not an old man?" Tang Xi froze for a moment, greatly surprised.
"..." The white wolf paused before saying, "Although we wolves see that you humans all look the same, we don't think the old man is a woman."
Tang Xi pondered for a while, turned on the phone, and showed it a photo of a woman who blew herself up in the IKEA garden: "Is it this woman?"
"It seems to be..." White Wolf hesitated.
"Yes, yes, no, no, what is it like!" Tang Xi slapped it on the head with a "slap".
"But... you human women all look alike." The white wolf judged aggrievedly.
"..." Although Tang Xi spoke eloquently, she was choked up.
Indeed, just as people can’t tell which one is which except for the large difference in color and pattern when looking at animals, the same is true for animals looking at people. Human faces are all printed in the same mold in their eyes. Even if the white wolf cultivates spiritual wisdom, his cultivation level is not enough, and he is still an animal in essence.
"Did that woman show up later?" Pei Qingzhi asked.
"It was here the year before last, but it hasn't been since the second half of last year." White Wolf replied.
Tang Xi frowned slightly, did the time coincide with the time of that woman's death? That's right, to deal with a little demon, I'm afraid the boss will not need to do it himself.
"After the resentment poured into my body, most of the time I don't really remember what I did, it's just..." The white wolf lay back on the ground again, paused for a while, and finally said like a broken can, "Yes, occasionally sober Sometimes, I often post some strange things, such as blood on the corner of my mouth or something... But I really didn't kill the person!"
"Have you seen this person before?" Tang Xi showed him another photo of Guan Li.
White Wolf glanced at it, trembling all over, and immediately said: "I haven't seen it before!"
"Really?" How could Tang Xi be deceived by such an obvious little move, with a sweet smile on her face, but a ball of spiritual power had gathered in her hand, and a faint thunder burst in her palm.
"No, no, I've seen it before!" The white wolf flinched, the hair all over his body exploded, and he was too embarrassed to run away, so he quickly changed his words.
"Didn't it mean that all human beings are about the same size?" Tang Xi asked.
"Because his earrings are special, I remember..." Bai Lang said helplessly.
Tang Xi also took another look at the photo.
Sure enough, what Guan Li wore on his ear was a silver stud in the shape of a wolf's head, which was indeed unique in shape.
"So, Guan Li's soul is likely to be in those wronged souls you took away from him yesterday?" Pei Qingzhi said in horror.
Tang Xi pondered for a while, then took out the Soul Cultivation Orb that sealed the resentment, and released the collected resentment.
Immediately, a dark wind blew up in the woods, and it seemed as if one could hear the howling and howling of ghosts in one's ears.
"It's so noisy!" Tang Xi threw the ring over directly.
In an instant, the billowing resentment parted and wrapped the ring inside.
"Yunqi!" Tang Xi shouted.
Yun Qi appeared silently, held up the jade flute, and played a piece of requiem. He didn't play the whole piece, but with the sound of the rhythm, a ray of resentment was gradually separated and circled around the ring.
"The only thing missing is the dead body." Tang Xi clenched his fists, suppressed his excitement, and said coldly, "As long as the dead body is found and it proves that Guan Li died abnormally, the case can be filed."
"You are really helping Chu Li." Pei Qingzhi suddenly had an indescribable feeling.
He knew that there was something wrong with his mood, but he didn't know where the problem was.
Chu Li is Tang Xi's guardian. They have no other relatives, and they depend on each other for life. They should have a good relationship.
But... there is a subtle jealousy. Could it be because Tang Xi rejected his grandfather as guardian
"Pei Qingzhi?" Tang Xi called out.
"Huh?" Pei Qingzhi was taken aback, and immediately recovered.
"I've called you several times, what are you thinking?" Tang Xi looked at him suspiciously.
"No, I was just wondering where the corpse would be." Pei Qingzhi collected himself, quickly organized his thoughts, and organized, "Look, this area is within the search range of the rescue team. If there is a corpse, it is impossible to find it." No, they are professionals. And more than one person has disappeared over the years, and judging by the number of these souls, there is more than one corpse, and no one has found it so far, so there must be a special place for corpses."
"You're right." Tang Xi nodded.
"Crack!" The tarnished ring fell to the ground.
Tang Xi went up, picked up the ring, looked at it, and put it in his pocket.
The original shiny yellow diamond seemed to be covered with dust, and it looked like a plastic texture.
Yun Qi's tune suddenly changed, from the gentle and calm "Requiem", to violent all of a sudden, as if a silver bottle burst, which made people feel relieved.
The resentment that had been calmed down also became irritable, and he wanted to escape suddenly.
Tang Xi narrowed his eyes, and said leisurely: "As for where the corpse is, just let the ghost take us to find it."
