The village has returned to its usual quietness and tranquility.
Hidden in the shadows, Zhang Jiaqiang and the others quickly crossed the dirt road and arrived outside the stone wall of the village chief's house.
Tie Zhu whispered, "Xiao Zhen said Er Dou's house is in the backyard!"
Zhang Jiaqiang nodded and walked around to the back wall.
Tie Zhu quickly squatted down and put his hands on his abdomen. Zhang Jiaqiang jumped suddenly and stepped on his palms. Tie Zhu suddenly used force and pushed him up more than half a meter.
Zhang Jiaqiang jumped up to the wall, bent down and stretched out his hand to the iron pillar.
Tie Zhu jumped on the spot, grabbed the wall with both hands and climbed up easily, and smiled at Zhang Jiaqiang.
The Zhang family ignored this ostentatious behavior and squatted on the wall to listen carefully to what was going on in the yard.
Most farmers have dogs at home, and the village chief's house is no exception. Sure enough, two dogs barking faintly came from the front yard.
Tie Zhu took out the remaining rabbit skeleton he had eaten tonight and threw it towards the gate between the front and back yards with all his strength.
The skeleton fell to the ground, and two black dogs rushed out, barking wildly. One of them grabbed the skeleton and gnawed it, while the other immediately stepped forward to fight and bite it.
This is really in line with the famous saying, the bones two dogs fight over are good meat!
In the blink of an eye, the two dogs bit into each other.
"What do you call a bastard? Why don't you go back to your den!"
Following the village chief's scolding, the two dogs each held half of the skeleton in their mouths and returned to the kennel with their tails between their legs. The yard became completely silent.
The two of them did not dare to jump over the wall. Instead, they slowly slipped down backwards and landed quietly on the ground.
The backyard is not big, with a leafy Chinese toon tree planted there. Only two rooms are located under the shade of the tree, and there is a pile of firewood stacked against the back wall.
At this moment, the lights in both rooms were dark, and there was no movement.
The two of them came to the door close to the wall, listened carefully for a moment, and made sure that no one was moving in the room. Then they opened the door bolt and ducked in.
They didn't dare to turn on the light, and began to look for traces of the child with the help of the weak flashlight light.
The two rooms were not big, so they searched them all within a short time, even under the bed and in the cabinets, but they could not find the whereabouts of the little girl.
Zhang Jiaqiang looked at the front yard through the window. It was extremely unlikely that Er Dou handed the little girl over to the village chief, but it could not be completely ruled out.
Tie Zhu found out the real thing and cast a questioning look at Zhang Jiaqiang.
Zhang Jiaqiang slowly shook his head, "The front yard is unlikely, let's search carefully to see if there is a cellar or something like that!"
Iron Pillar immediately began to search around the house, even looking at the beams. This was because he didn't have a pickaxe or shovel, otherwise he could demolish the house.
Zhang Jiaqiang quietly opened the door, returned to the courtyard, and walked around the house. Not to mention the cellar, he didn't even find the chicken coop.
Suddenly his eyes fell on the pile of firewood. Could anyone be hiding in it?
"Zhuzi, come out!"
At the same time, a white van drove into the village and went straight to the village chief's house.
After the car stopped, the door opened, and three uniformed security guards came out and knocked on the door.
When the village chief heard the knock on the door, his face showed joy. He hurried to the courtyard and opened the door.
"Oh, Director Liu, you are here!"
Director Liu, who had gray hair and bright eyes, said, "Where is the person you are talking about?"
"There was an accident tonight. The person's child was lost. He may be looking for the child now. Let's talk to him at home first!"
A group of people filed in. The village chief looked outside, turned around and closed the courtyard door tightly.
At this moment, two dogs in the yard suddenly started barking, causing the kennel to bang.
The village chief roared, "You bastard, stop barking. If you bark again, I'll stew you!"
"This wretched dog has got something wrong today. He keeps barking. Director Liu, please come in!"
However, Director Liu stood still and suddenly pointed to the backyard and said, "Does your son live in the back?"
"Ang, that kid is out of the house now. Oh, no, the dog barked so hard, why didn't he move?"
The village chief's expression changed, and he hurriedly opened the kennel, and two black native dogs jumped out one after the other.
The village chief followed closely behind and ran to the backyard.
Director Liu took out his pistol, pointed towards the backyard, and chased after him with his two brothers.
Passing through the courtyard gate, I saw two black dogs jumping and barking at the courtyard wall.
The village chief ran into the house and shouted, "Er Dou, Er Dou, where did this kid go in the middle of the night!"
Director Liu looked around and asked, "Where is your son?"
"I don't know. Maybe he jumped over the wall and ran out. This kid has done this before. Hey, what happened to the firewood pile?"
The pile of firewood that was originally leaning against the wall had been ripped open at this time, and various branches and tree trunks were scattered everywhere, making it as messy as if it had just been demolished.
Director Liu stepped forward to take a look, then suddenly turned back and pointed at the wall and said, "Someone just dug it out, but I don't know if it is your son!"
The village chief's expression suddenly changed, "Definitely not. If he climbs over the wall and goes out, the dog will never bark!"
Director Liu waved his hand, "Chase!"
The three security guards immediately rushed to the front yard, rushed out of the gate, and disappeared into the night.
...
In the courtyard of his grandma's house, Zhang Jiaqiang ran straight into the house with the listless Zhou Xiaomeng in his arms.
"Come on, Xiu Mei, get some water!"
"Mengmeng, my God!"
"What a sin, let grandma see!"
"My precious balls..."
When the whole family saw that the disgraced Zhou Xiaomeng was safe and sound, but a little lethargic, they suddenly screamed and became a mess for a while.
Zhang Jiaqiang handed the child to his mother, "You take care of her while I go to greet Brother Zhen. Be careful and don't let outsiders in!"
According to the normal time, Xiao Zhen should be back now, but he was nowhere to be seen, and Zhang Jiaqiang couldn't help but worry.
Tiezhu wanted to follow him, but Zhang Jiaqiang stopped him because there was no one in the family who could handle the matter.
He first ran into the backyard and took out a shiny real thing from the suitcase. This was the inheritance of Brother Chao. It was completely different from the ones they usually used, and it looked more advanced.
Zhang Jiaqiang immediately stuffed it into his pocket, went out and ran to Mercedes-Benz Business.
A moment later, the engine roared, and the car rushed along the mountain road into the night.
Zhang Jiaqiang's driving skills were pretty good in his previous life. Although he didn't have a driving test after his rebirth, he still practiced regularly.
He asked Xiaozhen about the general direction of Laojun Temple, and immediately looked for directions and drove on the small road.
...
Laojun Temple is located on a desolate hilltop, looking extremely scary in the night.
At this moment, there was a sound of shouting and cursing in the woods nearby.
"Er Dou, where is the person you are talking about, where is the car, and where is the one hundred thousand yuan? It's already midnight, and there's not even a hair left!"
Four ferocious-looking men surrounded Er Dou. One of them held a dagger with a cold light in his hand and was pressing it against his chest.
Er Dou was so frightened that he turned pale, "He's coming, brother, be patient, I swear he's coming!"
The man holding the dagger sneered, "Er Dou, if he doesn't come, don't leave today!"
As soon as the man finished speaking, Er Dou suddenly pointed outside the woods and whispered.
"Brother, look!"
