"Huh? What clue?" Boss Ma asked angrily. Some people just couldn't bear to see themselves idle. It has only been a few days and things happened again.
"We are checking badges and related things everywhere in China. As you know, a few days ago, news came from Chongqing that there are clues in the Teresa Catholic Church over there, so we thought about going to Chongqing. All?" Love asked respectfully.
"Go, why don't you go? Let's go together, but your boss Ke hasn't paid me yet." Boss Ma said lazily. Professional ethics must be upheld, but the accounts must be settled clearly.
"We have already reported it to the master. If you go out in person, the cost of going to Yudu this time will be all ours, and you will be rewarded for finding clues."
"Then what are you waiting for? Waiting for the Chinese New Year? Book a boat ticket immediately and set off to Chongqing!" Boss Ma stood up immediately upon hearing this and waved his hand proudly.
The three lowly guests (Le Fu, Bu Wei, and An Lu) stayed at Tianma Yangxing for more than a month. They worked from nine to five every day, except for going to work. They had nothing to do. When Boss Ma gave the order, he naturally acted quickly. I immediately booked a ferry ticket to Chongqing.
This time, because the things in the previous period were almost busy, the special operations team did not have very important tasks. MISS Liu was worried that Boss Ma was traveling alone and could not take care of himself. He had to go with him. Who dares to disobey the opinion of the head of the family?
The golden partner Fatty had to be taken with him, and Lao Li had to stay behind. But he was now in charge of the third team. Unexpectedly, Boss Ma actually brought Lao Liu with him.
Well, Boss Ma has a profound meaning.
At the Xiaguan Pier in Jinling, a group of seven people walked together in great style. Anyway, Lao Ke was rich, so there was no need to bring one or two more people with him.
Boss Ma never shows mercy when it comes to harvesting the wool of imperialism.
Boss Ma didn't have anyone come to see him off, which was too high-profile.
Originally, Boss Ma was planning to find an opportunity to send people to Yudu again, which would affect everyone's livelihood in the next ten years. This time, he happened to go and see it in person.
Everyone was aboard the liner "Yangtze River" of the British and Pacific Shipping Company. The journey was smooth and smooth. That is to say, when we passed the Three Gorges, everyone was amazed by the strange and magnificent scenery of the Three Gorges. The strange dangers of the Sichuan River were only I was slightly worried because it was winter and not the flood season, so the Sichuan River did not show its ferocious face in front of everyone.
Admiring the amazing beauty of the Three Gorges, the "Yangtze River" slowly sailed into Chongqing. Looking from a distance in the mist was the famous Chaotian Gate. At this time, Chongqing was completely shrouded in a heavy fog, hazy. The whole city cannot be seen clearly, but it makes the city look even more mysterious.
The ship docked and slowly approached the Chaotianmen Pier. Unlike later generations, which were all high-rise buildings, overpasses, and light rails, most of Chongqing at this time were stilted buildings built against the mountains. It was quite a sight from a distance, but not so much up close. Some are dilapidated and even dangerous. This is what it looked like in the old era. The layers of stilted buildings are like historical marks, stacked there to tell the vicissitudes of time.
However, most of the cities in China in this era, including Shanghai and several other cities, had this weather-beaten look. Comparatively speaking, Chongqing was still a relatively modern city.
Except for Boss Ma, everyone else is used to this kind of dilapidation, but no one is used to the roads in Chongqing. There is still Bangbang helping to carry the luggage, otherwise it will be really difficult to carry it.
At this time, unlike a few years later, Chongqing was still an inland and traditional city. Although it was a land and water dock, modern hotels were difficult to find. However, this was not a problem for Mr. Liu, a businessman. He had already booked something. The Jiangnan Guild Hall in Shuimen is located in a location with mountains and rivers. It is quiet in the bustle and has a good environment. In the old days, it was already a pretty good temporary residence, and the cost was reasonable. It would be fine even if you stayed for a longer period of time.
Due to the large number of people, it took everyone a long time to settle down. Seven people lived in a small courtyard, and it was not crowded at all. Everyone was so happy that they couldn't praise Old Liu for his ability to do things.
The Teresa Catholic Church that brought the news was not close at all. It was in the north of the Yangtze River. The church was in the Yuzhong Peninsula, so we had to take a ferry across the river the next day.
Early the next morning, Sanjian Ke got up early. Boss Ma asked Miss Liu and Lao Liu to inspect the business, focusing on Yuzhong and Yubei. Of course, Jiangbei and Shapingba should also be visited.
The members of the Special Operations Group had long been accustomed to Boss Ma's supernatural power and took it for granted. However, the three humble guests had never seen it before. For a moment, they were astonished by Boss Ma and had a look of reverence on their faces. A few points.
After making arrangements, Boss Ma and Fatty took the three cheap guests all the way and finally arrived at Teresa Catholic Church in Jiangbei.
This church has a long history that can be traced back to the Qing Dynasty. The new site was completed in 1928. Bishop Shang Weishan of the Diocese of Chongqing called on the faithful to donate funds for the construction. It has some combination of Chinese and Western styles.
The news was revealed by Bishop Pan Beiting in a letter to Ke Shouyi, saying that he had found some ancient books that might be helpful to Lao Ke's affairs. Lao Ke was not good at what he did. It happened that Boss Ma had an agreement with him. The second master and other reasons that were inconvenient to explain, asked Sanqianke and Boss Ma to come and find out.
Bishop Pan is a kind old man with a good spirit and is naturally very enthusiastic when meeting people from his hometown.
"Oh, dear boys, welcome to the beautiful city of Yudu. It must be the Almighty Lord who has made it possible for us to meet here..."
"Dear Bishop, we are here because of your letter to the Earl." Love, the leader of the three cheap guests, patiently listened to Bishop Pan's oracle and quickly got to the point.
"Oh, yes, yes, look, I almost forgot about this as soon as I saw you."
After the bishop was polite again, he turned into the study and fumbled around for a while before he solemnly came out holding a sheepskin box.
After placing the silver cross in his hand on the box for a long time and inviting gods from all over the world, the bishop solemnly opened the box.
Dang dang dang - the box was opened, but it was empty inside!
This moment made everyone who had been interested for almost half a month immediately disappointed.
Fortunately for Boss Ma and Fatty, this was originally a dungeon to gain experience points and see if they could make a fortune or get some equipment.
The three humble guests, however, were as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, staring at the bishop with their mouths open.
"Oh my God! My God, what's going on?" The bishop was no longer calm. This was shit on the city wall - his face was exposed.
Bishop Pan blushed and thought for a while, then recovered from the huge gap and blow. Instead of strolling around in the courtyard, he walked out quickly, taking three steps at a time and then two steps at a time.
"Taylor! Where are you? What's going on? Have you entered my study today?" Bishop Pan shouted the name of his personal servant Taylor as he walked quickly, without any of his usual reserve and solemnity.
Soon everyone came to the servant Taylor's room and knocked on the door. There seemed to be some rustling sounds inside, as if they were rummaging for something.
"Tyler, I know you're in there, damn, you're going to hell!" Bishop Pan shouted, knocking on the door.
The people inside seemed indifferent to the shouts outside, but the voices became louder.
The three cheap guests were not as reserved as the bishop. They looked at each other to confirm. The other two cheap guests, Bu Wei and Andre, took a few steps back and opened the door to Taylor's room with a bang.
The room was in a mess. The servant Taylor fell to the ground with a dagger stuck in his chest. There was blood everywhere on the ground, which had slowly begun to solidify.
The moment the door opened, a gray figure flashed and jumped directly from the second floor window...
"Oh my god! Catch him." Bishop Pan was naturally frightened when he saw such a sudden change and shouted quickly.
Without saying much, leaving Love and Fatty to deal with the aftermath, Boss Ma and two other cheap customers also jumped out of the second-floor window and chased the man in gray in the direction in which he had just escaped.
This Chongqing city is completely different from other cities. Not to mention that most of the buildings at this time are old streets and small alleys. It is this unpredictable terrain that will kill people.
When you turn around this house, it's still on the first floor, and you'll see the roof of another house over there. This side passes through a small street, and that side may be a high cliff...
The whole pursuit was like following the man in gray in front of him through a three-dimensional 8D maze.
Fortunately for Boss Ma, his hometown is Bashu in later generations. Although Yudu has not been here for a long time, he still knows how powerful it is and has finally experienced it.
The two humble guests had never seen this before. After a while, they were panting and fell behind.
The man in gray in front is very skilled and is familiar with the terrain. He can move very fast. However, Boss Ma is not a vegetarian. He has good skills. Although he is not very familiar with the terrain of Chongqing at this time, he can still move according to the situation. The terrain anticipated changes, so I wasn't dragged too far down.
But in the end, Boss Ma still suffered some losses. The streets in Chongqing were too psychedelic and the terrain was too complex. After turning around an alley, the people in front of him completely disappeared.
After turning this alley, there is a stone street here. The street is built along the mountain. Along the road are either grocery stores, small restaurants, or the most popular teahouses in Chongqing...
The street is very narrow, and there are many pedestrians. Occasionally there are people carrying sliding poles, and more often they are carrying sticks carrying various things.
There are also some stick sticks that have not found a way to survive, leaning on the street corner and blowing their shells there.
When Ma Xiaoguang saw this, he stopped and looked around carefully.
The man in gray was like a drop of water blending into the rushing Jialing River next to him, disappearing out of thin air. It seemed that the man was not that simple character, but he actually knew the truth behind hiding in the city.
After calling a dozing Bangbang, Boss Ma asked loudly in the local dialect: "Brother, just now, a man in gray clothes ran over. Did you see it? He is my brother-in-law, and he has rabies! He has been bitten several times. I'm alone, I ran away from home..."
After hearing this, all the sticks were shocked and dispersed.
I saw the man in gray at the corner of the street, squatting there alone and embarrassed.
