Zhu Yu and Ran Jie walked along the ravine.
It can be seen that the middle of the ravine was originally very flat and quite large, so it was no problem to build a building.
It's just that now because of the mudslide, many rocks are mixed in, which looks very dangerous.
Many trees have also been cut off, some are still stubbornly sticking out their leaves from the soil, and some have turned into rotten wood, becoming a paradise for bugs and fungi.
"Boss, looking at the situation, that place may really be destroyed by the washout." Ran Jie said as he walked, "You deserve it."
"It's hard to say, let's keep walking in and take a look." Zhu Yu actually kept his eyes open. He could see that underneath the mudslide was a stone road leading to the mountain.
The stone road is buried about half a meter deep in the soil.
Zhu Yu felt that at this depth, if the Xingya Guanyin Temple existed, it would not be directly flattened to the ground, and some ruins would definitely remain.
Including the Blood and Earth Guanyin.
So Zhu Yu walked very slowly.
Fortunately, his Heavenly Eye is now full of energy. He can keep it fully open all the way without worrying about the energy being exhausted.
But starting from the intersection and walking for almost a kilometer, I didn't see anything related to blood and soil.
On both sides of the stone road, there are occasional building foundations, but there are no human bones.
"Boss, look over there!" Ran Jie actually kept looking forward, and then he saw an artificial ruin like a half-wall in front, and he immediately pointed it out to Zhu Yu.
Zhu Yu looked up and found that there was not just a wall, but the remains of an entire building - could this be the infamous Xingya Guanyin Temple?
Zhu Yu discovered that the mudslide did not come directly towards the temple. It was only affected, but most of the buildings were also washed away.
The two people walked to the building and found that it was covered with grass. It looked like no one had been here for a long time.
"Boss, let's look carefully?" Ran Jie looked at Zhu Yu.
"Okay." Zhu Yu nodded, "Look around to see if there is anything suspicious."
Zhu Yu continued to open his eyes, he didn't want to let go of anything suspicious.
After viewing the entire Guanyin Academy, although Zhu Yu didn't find anything, he had more doubts in his mind!
At this time, Ran Jie also looked at the entire Guanyin Yuan, and then met Zhu Yu.
"Boss, it looks like everything here has been washed away, and nothing is left. The few houses that were not affected have also had their contents taken away, and they are now empty."
Zhu Yu nodded, he also discovered this.
"It looks like, as the news said, this place was completely destroyed." Ran Jie said, "Even the photo we found on the Internet, which is the stone on the base of the Blood and Soil Guanyin, has been completely destroyed." Can’t find it.”
Zhu Yu picked up a branch casually, poked it on the ground and said:
"I think you can see that it's really clean in here. Nothing is left here."
"Yes." Ran Jie guessed, "Could it be because there was an early warning of heavy rain, so those people prepared and evacuated in advance, so that's why this happened?"
"It's possible." Zhu Yu said, "That's why it's even more suspicious - think about it, this Xingya Guanyin Temple itself was built to worship the Blood and Earth Guanyin. They removed all the others, so maybe it's the Blood and Earth Guanyin." Doesn’t it seem like you haven’t withdrawn yet?”
Ran Jie nodded slowly.
This matter is really unjustifiable!
Of course, Zhu Yu's most fundamental basis was that he had not seen any trace of Blood and Earth Guanyin all the way from the entrance of the mountain valley to here.
If the Blood and Soil Guanyin was really washed down by the heavy rain, mud, and mud, then it would definitely not be washed away so cleanly.
Therefore, Zhu Yu definitely has reason to believe that there is another hidden secret in this matter!
Of course, there is another possibility that the Blood and Earth Guanyin is not here, but is in a place higher up.
So Zhu Yu said to Ran Jie:
"Come on, let's continue looking up and see if we can find any new clues."
"Okay." Ran Jie led the way.
Further forward, after passing the Xingya Guanyin Yuan building, there are more shrubs in the mountains, making it much more difficult to walk.
However, the physical fitness of both of them is far beyond that of ordinary people. Not only will walking on such a road be like walking on flat ground, it will at least be much easier than ordinary people.
"Here!" Zhu Yu suddenly shouted, "Ran Jie, look here!"
Following Zhu Yu's fingers, Ran Jie saw several gray-black stones scattered beside the road up the mountain, followed by a large bush.
Normally, no one would have noticed what was there, but now, and comparing it with the information I had seen before, it is obvious that this is where the Blood and Soil Guanyin statue originally stood!
Very similar!
It should be!
Ran Jie turned to look at Zhu Yu.
"Look, can't you see the traces of the mudslide?"
Zhu Yu walked to the pile of stones, pointed to the shallow traces of soil under the shrubs nearby and said:
"It's right here. Although it has been a long time, you can still see some traces of the washout if you look carefully."
Ran Jie walked over and knelt down to take a look, and found that it was really there!
"So, the mudslide did not wash away the Blood and Earth Guanyin statue at all, at most it washed away half of the stone!" Zhu Yu said with certainty.
"Is it possible that because the base is unstable, the stone was washed away and the Blood and Soil Guanyin statue was directly washed down? No, no, no, this is impossible!"
Ran Jie put forward a hypothesis, but he immediately rejected it:
"If that were the case, then the stones here would not be in this shape, and at least a large part of them would have been washed away. Now this pile of stones is scattered and falling, as if someone moved it into this shape intentionally, unlike It was washed out by mudslides.”
Seeing that Ran Jie's analysis was spot on, Zhu Yu nodded approvingly.
"Boss, there is only one possibility - before the mudslide came, they had already moved the Blood and Soil Guanyin away - or after the mudslide, the Blood and Soil Guanyin was not washed away, but moved to other places! "
"Well, I think the latter is more likely." Zhu Yu said, "Although there are not many things about Blood and Earth Guanyin on the Internet, people who are interested can still search for it.
The Blood and Soil Guanyin is actually very sensitive now. Someone came here decades ago to blow it up. If it had always been here, someone else would have done the same thing if it was not preserved..."
"Isn't this our plan!" Ran Jie said.
"Yes, after all, it was sculpted with the blood and soil of our compatriots - if it really stands here forever, I'm afraid not only the private sector, but also the government will definitely take a stance on this matter."
Zhu Yu pointed out the key to this matter. This is what those people are afraid of.
After all, if it is a private matter, those people can ignore it, but if the official starts to express its position, then this matter will become big.
Not many people know about it now, so things haven’t spread yet.
But because the mood of self-confidence and self-improvement in the country is obviously high at present, if this matter is posted by someone who is interested and becomes a hot search, think about that situation. If the official does not say it, there may be a batch of people looking for Xingya in the past. trouble!
Think about the actions of those warriors who protect the Diaoyu Islands and you will understand!
Zhu Yu's heavenly eye has always been open. There are some residual traces on these gray-black stones. The traces are very faint, but Zhu Yu's heavenly eye can see that they are traces of blood and soil!
Zhu Yu felt that he could feel the resentment contained in it!
He no longer has to look elsewhere. He can be sure that it is here.
"Boss, since we are basically sure that the thing has been transported away, will we follow the plan and ask the people around the foot of the mountain to find the whereabouts of Blood and Earth Guanyin?"
Zhu Yu nodded and said:
"That's right. It's absolutely impossible for them to send Blood and Earth Guanyin away without leaking any information. Let's plan more carefully and make sure to dig out this information!"
Zhu Yu thought to himself, those people were probably transporting not only the Blood and Earth Guanyin statue, but also the ashes of the seven war criminals, and the tablets of more than a thousand war criminals!
This is no ordinary transportation job, and it is impossible to keep it completely confidential!
"Boss, let's go down the mountain?"
"Let's go. I think Qiao Yingjie is waiting impatiently. I'm afraid she won't drive away because of fear, which will cause trouble."
Zhu Yu was obviously joking, but Ran Jie was worried that it was true, so he walked down the mountain quickly.
"Huh?" When the two of them were approaching the ruins of Guanyin Yuan, they suddenly saw Qiao Yingjie walking up.
But behind her, there were five or six people in ordinary clothes rushing up. The target was obviously Qiao Yingjie!
"Qiao Yingjie, hurry up!" Zhu Yu suddenly shouted, "There is someone behind you!"
He spoke in Chinese, which Qiao Yingjie could understand, but it was hard to say whether the people behind him understood him or not.
After Qiao Yingjie heard this, he subconsciously turned his head to look down, then showed a vigilant expression, turned around and hurried over to Zhu Yu and the others.
Zhu Yu and Ran Jie also quickened their pace and joined Qiao Yingjie before those few people arrived behind her.
Before Qiao Yingjie had time to ask Zhu Yu and the others, those people had already arrived.
Zhu Yu and Ran Jie looked at these people, and these people were also looking at Zhu Yu and the others.
They are not tall, but they all look like powerful men. His expressions were not good-looking, and the expressions he looked at Zhu Yu and the others were not good-looking either.
"Are you Chinese? What are you doing here? This is a private place and outsiders are not welcome!" The leader, a man in his forties who was 1.7 meters tall and weighed almost 70 kilograms, said in a rough voice. said:
"Now please come down the mountain immediately!"
Private property?
Zhu Yu suddenly remembered that in the information he read, Matsui Iwane said that he wanted to build a courtyard. At that time, this was indeed a private place. Matsui Iwane was given to Matsui Iwane to build his own house, and a statue of Guanyin was erected next to it.
Zhu Yu and Ran Jie looked at each other. They obviously felt something was wrong with these people just driving them away because this was private property.
This place is not enclosed and there are no obvious warning signs. To ordinary people, it looks like an ownerless mountain.
In a place like this, saying that no one is allowed in because it is private property is obviously not convincing enough!
Zhu Yu guessed that this was indeed a private place, but because it was quite sensitive, he was afraid that putting up a sign like "Private Domain Declined to Visit" would actually have the effect of concealing it.
After all, ordinary people will not come here. Those who can come here are almost here for Xingya Guanyin Temple and Blood and Earth Guanyin.
If a sign is erected here, wouldn't it be equivalent to telling others that this is the original site of Xingya Guanyin Temple?
But now that the person suspected of being involved has arrived, how could Zhu Yu and the others let him go?
"We are here to find something." Zhu Yu said, "I want to ask you..."
"We don't accept questioning. Get down quickly!" These people surrounded Zhu Yu and the others, obviously intending to coerce them and get them down.
The leader could speak fluent Chinese, which surprised Zhu Yu.
Qiao Yingjie was a little scared and whispered worriedly:
"Mr. Zhu, let's go down, after all, this is private property..."
When he said this, those people looked at Qiao Yingjie.
One of them said something in Japanese quickly, and Qiao Yingjie's face suddenly turned red.
Zhu Yu could tell that he was red with anger!
"What did they say?" Zhu Yu asked.
"Don't say so much, hurry down the mountain!" A trace of panic flashed in the leader's eyes, but then he said forcefully, "Hurry up! Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!"
After saying that, he stepped forward to push Zhu Yu.
"Have a nicer attitude!" Ran Jie slapped the man's hand off. The man obviously didn't expect Ran Jie to be so tough and was stunned for a moment.
"Tell me, what did they say?" Zhu Yu gave Qiao Yingjie a supportive look, "Don't worry, they don't dare to do anything to you!"
Maybe it was Ran Jie's actions that gave Qiao Yingjie the courage, or maybe it was Zhu Yu's support that made Qiao Yingjie feel that she couldn't remain silent. She blushed and said angrily:
"They... said very nasty things, insulted me, and said that the three of us..."
Zhu Yu understood.
He looked at the Japanese man who spoke.
That man seemed to understand what Zhu Yu meant. Not only did he not feel guilty, but he stiffened his neck and looked at Zhu Yu with provocative eyes - the meaning was very clear, so I said, what's wrong?
"Snapped!"
Zhu Yu slapped him in the face without any warning!
That person, including several others, didn't react at all. This person was slapped by Zhu Yu and staggered, with two teeth spitting out of his mouth!
"Baga!" The man covered his mouth and shouted angrily.
The leader reacted the fastest and rushed to control Zhu Yu while shouting words.
However, he was only halfway through shouting when Ran Jie punched him in the ribs, clutching his stomach and howling miserably.
Although the others were startled by the fighting power of Zhu Yu and Ran Jie, they were not afraid at all. They rushed over shouting words, and one of them even rushed towards Qiao Yingjie.
Zhu Yu stood in front of Qiao Yingjie and slapped those people to the ground without any panic!
What surprised him was that Qiao Yingjie didn't really hide behind him. Instead, he picked up a stick from the ground and hit those people with all his strength, while cursing:
"You bastards! How dare you scold me... you are really a turtle grandson..."
"Okay, okay, if you beat them again, they will be killed..." Zhu Yu couldn't stand it anymore. He stopped Qiao Yingjie's stick, "Even if you want to beat them to death, you have to let us finish asking questions before beating them." .”
When he heard that he was going to beat the opponent to death, Qiao Yingjie realized what he was doing and hurriedly threw the stick away, "No more fighting!"
Zhu Yu looked at Ran Jie:
"Then let's interrogate separately... I'll interrogate the leader, and you and Guide Qiao will interrogate the others?"
"It's up to me to interrogate the leader." Ran Jie lifted up the leader who could speak Chinese and pulled him aside, "I promise to let him tell the color of his wife's underwear -"
Qiao Yingjie laughed when he heard the sound, and then felt something was wrong. He covered his mouth, not daring to look into Zhu Yu's eyes, and looked to the side with a guilty conscience.
"Tour Guide Qiao, let's get started." Zhu Yu first lifted the mean-mouthed guy and walked aside, "We have a heavy workload."
"Those few... aren't you afraid of them running away?" Qiao Yingjie pointed at the others and asked worriedly.
"Don't be afraid. They can't run away..." Zhu Yu looked at those people and said with a smile, "They are almost useless. It would be a miracle if they can run away!"
"Okay, you ask, I'll translate." Qiao Yingjie felt relieved and said.
"What are they doing? Why are they monitoring this place?" Zhu Yu threw the person behind the tree, squatted down, and asked.
Qiao Yingjie translated it.
The man wanted to show his toughness, so Zhu Yu directly grabbed his left index finger and broke it upwards. With a "pop" sound, the finger was broken!
"Ah——!" The man screamed, startling several birds.
Zhu Yu grabbed a handful of dirt and stuffed it into the man's mouth. The man spat out desperately and struggled, but Zhu Yu stepped on his chest and couldn't move.
"Before rejecting it next time, let's feel this feeling first -" Zhu Yu bent down and grabbed his left middle finger and broke it off again!
"ah--"
The bastard screamed again, with snot and tears welling up all at once.
"Eh, disgusting!" Zhu Yu said with disgust, "I think you should have thought it through, right? What? No? Then..."
He grabbed the other person's finger again, and the person nodded and shook his head desperately. The fear in his eyes reached its peak.
"Well, then please cooperate. What do you do? Why are you monitoring this place? Who do you work for? Tell me!"
Zhu Yu said the first three questions in a normal tone, but he suddenly raised his voice for the last word, which scared the guy to the point of peeing!
He thought Zhu Yu would "take action" again!
Qiao Yingjie translated very quickly, and the guy explained everything as if he were pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.
"Hmph! Sure enough, the person with the meanest mouth is the most cowardly!" Zhu Yu complained and continued to ask:
"Who is the master behind you? Where have all the people here moved to?"
As soon as this topic came up, Qiao Yingjie's breathing became a little faster, and she quickly translated the question.
Zhu Yu hoped that this person could give him a satisfactory answer.
After all, these people came here with a very strong purpose. If they were to say that they had nothing to do with Xingya Guanyin Yuan, even if they were killed, Zhu Yu would not believe it.
Then let's see what we can ask from this person's mouth!
