In his sleepy state, Xihuo Chaoyang received a message from the Harbor Haitian Center. The content mentioned AK4, Michiyama Sakura and the Two-Headed Gecko Organization, which was exactly the same as what Officer Xinxia said. The information also said that after the "Blue Ghost Force" and "Little White Shark" organizations have all disappeared, since a "Two-Headed Gecko" organization has appeared successively near the Harbor Sea and Sky Center of Baodao, and in the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau area of the mainland, there must be something going on here. There are many articles, and the relevant units have tightened their nerves and strive to catch them all. The news also confirmed that the man named Nishimura Hideki who appeared with Xiaoye Jingzi and fell to death was also a two-headed gecko. At the end of the message, the three people were asked to cooperate with the local security agencies as much as possible, using Xiaoye Jingzi as a clue to identify the clues and dig deep to catch this evildoer as soon as possible.
"Hmm, yes, yes, I have been in close contact with Officer Xinxia..." Xihuo Chaoyang read the book hazily, mumbling to himself. After finishing speaking, he tilted his head and fell asleep again. It’s on…
When he really woke up again, it was already afternoon. Although it had just entered the afternoon, the red sun surrounded by mountains was already squatting on the top of the Western Mountains.
The main venue is a small square at the foot of the mountain about 300 meters away from the Tmall Space Station. Since the cottage villages here maintain the original ecological model, in contrast, the Tmall Space Station is extremely The modern architectural colors naturally form a highlight of the crossing between ancient and modern times, which is as pleasing to the eye as science fiction, which adds to the popularity of the "Torch Festival". According to people at the scene, every time during the Torch Festival, when you stand on a high slope and look around, whether it is the winding paths in the fields or the tree-lined promenades in the countryside, everywhere you look around you are filled with flames. It was crowded.
The three of them listened passionately to the voices they met occasionally. Although what happened last night gave the three of them a new mission, and they concealed a lot of their chic behavior, speech and expressions, but facing the amazing time and space at this moment, When they put on the national costumes sent to them by the beautiful Xinxia police officer, they were still energetic and charming.
Sincerity blinked and glanced at Xiao Qi. Although his eyes turned to the village in the distance, a lot of words popped out of his mouth:
"Xiao Qi, in her national costume, should be more beautiful than the legendary Axi, but it's a pity...what's wrong with her in this flower dance, why didn't she come!?..."
While sighing, he turned around again, glanced at Sihuo Chaoyang and said with a smile: "Look at what you're wearing, if you come with Hua Wuyu, then the love story of this Torch Festival will be nothing but pure. He has performed a modern version of Ah Zhen and Ah Xi, which will not only delight our unforgettable trip, but will also always be a shining topic in your future loving lives!"
While Sincerity was expressing her sweet and sour emotions, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Xiao Qi suddenly turned around in confusion. Those two eyes were as menacing as swords and lightning. For a moment, Not only did Sincerity tremble with fear, Xihuo Chaoyang was suddenly stunned. After he looked around alertly, he snorted slightly and said, "Look, look, there's a fire over there!"
"The fire is bright, there is no fire!"
The two people's coincident words seemed to have changed the topic. Xihuo Chaoyang smiled silently and continued: "Hey, you said...if we were dressed like this from the beginning, wouldn't Xiaoye Jingzi be so like that?" It’s easy to recognize us.”
"Huh! My heart is broken and I'm crying. If I can't recognize it, that's a kind of hurt."
Xiao Qi was slightly angry and continued: "What's wrong with me, the one who shouldn't be here? I think the one who should leave or not is going to cause trouble. If I catch him this time and take him directly to the Haitian Center, I'll tell them to stage a show." Let’s see what kind of ugly behavior an A-Zhen-A-Xi has turned against, and let everyone see how thick-skinned human beings have become since they have evolved to this day!”
Treating people sincerely felt like being pricked by a needle. His face turned red, his eyes fluttered, his cheeks puffed up, and he stopped talking. Xihuo Chaoyang chuckled and said: "This is a good idea, so impressed by it, let Xiaoye Jingzi re-create the story of the Torch Festival at the Haitian Center, and then deduce how we battled wits and courage to capture the man at the Tmall Space Station. Living with these geckos, um, adding ups and downs to the artistic conception of this Torch Festival is the highlight of our experience, and it is our duty to let our Haitian Center really feel the charm of this Torch Festival!"
"Ah...yes, yes!" He smiled sincerely. He glanced at Xiao Qi and hummed helplessly. The three of them walked down the slope and went straight to the main venue of the Torch Festival. They walked lightly and vigorously, feeling the surrounding air keenly. With eyes and ears in all directions, they arrived at the "center of the stage" of the venue - in front of the tree tower.
In the crowd, three people walked leisurely around the tree tower. Looking up, they roughly estimated that the tree tower was fourteen or five meters high. It had a pine tree as its axis and was hung up and down. There are small items that wish good luck, but you can’t see clearly what is hanging on the top. The surroundings are all dry firewood, mainly pine wood.
"Yeah, yeah, don't forget to be careful?!"
Xihuo Chaoyang glanced at the two of them, then looked at the crowds far and near as if nothing had happened. Among the crowd, the three of them not only put on makeup but also wore national festival costumes. As long as they didn't speak, Xiaoye Jingzi would never be able to easily recognize them even if they passed by. It seems that Huo Chaoyang and Xiao Ye Jingzi have such dazzling eyes because they talked to each other. They open their eyes and walk freely like this. As soon as Xiao Ye Jingzi appears, he can immediately smell the sincerity towards others. That Xiaoqi was even more attentive. In the past two days, she had been influenced by lengthy stories about Xiaoye Jingzi and others, and she had basically reached the point where whenever she walked towards them, she would feel familiar.
The three of them walked around, scattered or gathered, enjoying their leisurely and silent silence as if there were no one around. Although they did not know what the hidden sentry set up by police officer Xinxia looked like, they were definitely not mortals, as long as they were not themselves. Just keep an eye on your own people.
This square originally seemed to be not too small, but if you wandered through it at a glance, you would feel that it was not much bigger. While the martial arts competition was still going on, the three of them walked in and found nothing unusual. There were snacks, supermarkets, and souvenir counters along the way. As they walked by in a graceful manner, their eyes lit up at the ethnic customs that filled the temporary stage there.
Finally came back, and the three of them smiled knowingly: "The inspection is complete, there is no Xiaoye Jingzi, and no two-headed gecko was seen!"
With a smile, he was sincere and suddenly said: "We are wearing national costumes, even hats...won't they do this?"
Xihuo Chaoyang whispered: "I have thought about this too, but aren't we old acquaintances? We still have a sixth sense. Fortunately, police officer Xinxia has not come back with any information so far. It seems that they have found nothing!"
"Then! Can they all run away again?" Just as Zhen Zhiren said this, he suddenly heard a message coming from the headset. It was the voice of police officer Xinxia: "Secret sentries found no unusual people in the square, restaurants, and inns. , but according to verification, no suspicious persons have left this area within 48 hours. The situation is delicate, please continue to pay attention!"
Xihuo Chaoyang and Cheng Zhenren looked at each other and each fell into deep thought. If this group of people were stimulated by the news of Yano Ogawa Yao who had fallen to death and all ran away, why was there no news of the suspicious person leaving? Well, according to Officer Xinxia, this group of people are still here, in this large area, are they hiding?
"Hiding!" He said softly, sincerely.
When the two of them were talking about this, they suddenly heard Xiao Qi exclaim: "Huh? There is really a fire over there!"
When Xihuo Chaoyang glared at Xiao Qi fiercely, Xiao Qi felt ashamed. The three of them looked around and saw that the bright spots of torches were appearing one after another in the small villages on the other side of the river, and there was also the faint sound of gongs, drums and horns. Come. As time goes by, many voices get closer and closer. In the blink of an eye, there are more and more torches in all directions, and as cheerful crowds continue to gather in the square and along the paths, the world around them begins to change. It became a sea of torches.
"Hmm, it looks good!" He said with a low smile in a sincere manner: "The village is boiling, haha, they say July is like a fire. Fortunately, the temperature here is not high and the humidity is just right. There is also this river, which is also helping to dilute the temperature. , if we also have a Torch Festival at this time, oh ho, the fire is flowing in July, the temperature is thirty-five or six degrees, hahahaha, that will add fuel to the fire!"
He spoke sincerely and picked up a piece of pine wood on the roadside that was one inch square and less than two meters long. He borrowed a fire from the person holding a torch next to him and lit it before handing it to Xiao Qi with a playful smile: "Haha, you go first Take it, I’ll find two more for you!”
There were torches in all directions, like swirling clouds in the sky, accompanied by the melodious gongs and drums, and the sound of horns heading straight towards the main venue. As the crowd cheered, fires rose around the tree tower at the main venue, and the crowd in the square also became excited. For a time, many people in national costumes held hands and sang and danced around the fire tower. A temporary stage not far away seemed to be performing a traditional national drama in which Axi and Azhen fought over toast and used torches to drive away moths. . There are figures swaying everywhere, small flames symbolizing auspiciousness everywhere, bonfires are slowly burning on the ground, and flames are rising from tree towers. The celebration is unprecedented and lively!
Sincerely was busy looking for pine planks or flammable and combustible materials, but he just happened to be short of time and couldn't find them everywhere. He unknowingly left the main venue and came to the river. When he suddenly raised his head, his eyes lit up. What is this place? Why is it so beautiful? He suddenly regretted not calling Xiao Qi and Xihuo Chaoyang together.
Due to the darkness, he could see clearly next, and he couldn't help but feel happy. No wonder it was so wonderful. It turned out that this place was also a tourist attraction. He slowly looked around, and was surprised to find that this place was full of antique wharf buildings, with halls, shops, teahouses, and restaurants all available. The antiques were so antique that he didn't know where the ancients had gone. Unknowingly, he came to the river again, and could vaguely see two ancient ships parked there on the river, but there was still no light at all. It was the second half of the month, and the whole ship was so dark that he could only see it. From the outside, if the main venue wasn't very close to here and the fire was blazing, there would be nothing visible here.
He was sincerely curious about everything here, and was busy looking for something that could be used as a torch. But just when he was poetically feeling this special time and space, he suddenly heard a faint call from not far away, and he immediately I felt a lump in my heart and almost breathed out. Could there be a ghost here? !
"Then...what else could it be?!"
However, he immediately thought of what happened in the past two days, of Xiaoye Jingzi who was following Xihuo Chaoyang, and of the two-headed gecko that fell to death...
He stabilized his mind, gathered courage, slowly took out the Yiguang pen, used his eyes and ears to listen to the expressions in all directions, followed the sound step by step, and leaned over...
