The missing person has returned. Regardless of whether he is dead or alive, at least he has been found. Therefore, the two of us set off for Yiyuanzhai without further delay.
Hua Muling called for a black Audi A6L. Before leaving, she called her second brother in the government security department and told us everything that happened here.
Her second brother didn't say much, he just asked a few questions about the whole situation, and after asking whether his sister was injured, he told us to leave first and leave the rest to him.
With the government security department taking care of the aftermath, I naturally had no worries, and I was not afraid of trouble from the so-called public safety experts, so I followed Hua Muling into the black Audi A6L and drove towards Yiyuanzhai.
The whole journey was silent, and twenty-five minutes later, the two of us arrived at the door of Yiyuanzhai.
At this time, Yiyuanzhai's gate was like a crowded place, with a hundred or so people surrounding it on three floors inside and three outside, blocking the path outside Yiyuanzhai's gate.
Seeing this, Hua Muling and I had no choice but to get out of the car early, and struggled to squeeze through the crowd with Hou Dayong, who was poisoned on our backs.
These people were all kinds of people, including people from Xiabamenli and ordinary people who were just passing by to watch the excitement. They originally came to see the excitement, but when they saw someone squeezing over, they couldn't help but curse: "Damn it, uncle!" Why are you squeezing? You're stepping on me, don't you know?"
"Yes, why are you squeezing? Are you rushing to reincarnate?"
"Oh, do you have any character? Did you touch me? Do you want to eat my mother's tofu?" Many people were yelling, but this woman was the most fierce and loudest. The sharp voice shocked me. My ears are numb.
However, Hua Muling and I no longer paid attention to the endless yelling and scolding of these guys. We just focused on separating the crowd and strode towards Yiyuanzhai.
When those guys turned around and saw the two of us looking fierce, covered in blood, and carrying a dark-purple-faced man on his back, they all instinctively took a few steps back, creating a path for the two of us. Son.
If I'm not wrong, the people who scolded the most fiercely just now can't help but silently recite the eight-character mantra "It's none of their business, just worry about it."
After passing through the crowd surrounding the entrance of Yiyuanzhai, Hua Muling and I quickly walked to the middle. However, when I came to the door of Yiyuanzhai, I couldn't help but froze.
Because at this time, there were six huge black coffins parked in front of the door of Yiyuanzhai. The coffins were very strange. The whole body showed a charming dark black, but under the sunlight, it occasionally appeared a faint purple. With this At the same time, there is also a faint aroma of Chinese medicinal materials wafting out from inside.
There was no seal on the coffin, and the lid of the coffin was stuck on the ground at an angle. I could clearly see the person lying inside at a glance.
There were five people lying in the six big black coffins, four men and one woman. Needless to say, the woman was none other than Hua Muling's mother who had disappeared before. And those four men, except for the one lying in the coffin on the edge, Apart from the old man of the Hou family, I have never met the other three.
"Little Hu, you are finally back!" Just when I was surprised, Uncle Xu, the second head of Yiyuanzhai, came up to me and said to me: "Something big happened this time."
Uncle Xu, whose original name was Xu Yingzhi, although he was not a talker in Xiabamenli, he followed our old man through life and death and worked hard for more than thirty years. I don’t know how many famous mountains and rivers, and the tombs of dynasty generals and ministers were buried in their hands. In his own hands, he can be regarded as a prominent figure among the eight word-stealing sects. Even today, several people have switched careers and started antique business, but when Xu Yingzhi's name is mentioned, the black and white still have to give some face.
Uncle Xu has always been calm-minded and decisive in dealing with things. He is also known as "Xu Zhuge with a white paper fan" in the world. Let's put it this way, since I can remember, I have never seen him as anxious as he is today. From this point of view, if what happened today is not as bad as the sky is falling, I'm afraid it's not much different.
Thinking of this, I patted Uncle Xu on the shoulder and asked, "Uncle Xu, don't worry. What is going on? When were these six coffins delivered?"
Uncle Xu sighed and said, "These six coffins were delivered to our Yiyuanzhai about forty minutes ago!"
I asked in surprise: "Do you know who sent these coffins?"
Uncle Xu shook his head and sighed: "I don't know! No one knows! These six coffins seemed to have grown out of the ground, and suddenly appeared at the door of our Yiyuanzhai."
I frowned slightly, and just when I was about to ask if there was any news about our old man, I was interrupted by Hua Muling on the side.
I just heard Hua Muling say to me: "Hu Tian, come here and take a look at this!"
I turned around and asked, "What?"
Hua Muling said, "You'll know just by looking at it."
After saying that, Hua Muling pulled me to the coffin where her mother was lying, and slowly picked up the hand that her mother had placed on her chest.
Hua Muling pointed to a slightly red and swollen wound on her wrist and said, "Look here."
I took her mother's wrist and looked at it carefully for a while. I found that in the center of the red and swollen area, there were two extremely small holes, which looked like some kind of bite marks.
I was stunned for a moment, and then I said casually: "This... is this a sign of being bitten by a snake? Could it be..."
Hua Muling nodded and said: "If I guess correctly, it should be the five-step green snail snake from the Miaojiang Gu sect!"
I asked in surprise: "But why don't they have the black and swollen whole body like monkeys?"
Hua Muling frowned and said, "Maybe it has something to do with this coffin!"
I said: "You mean, this coffin can restrain the poison of the five-step Bisnail snake?"
Hua Muling said: "Or to be more precise, there is some kind of medicine in this coffin that can temporarily restrain the poison of the five-step Bisnail snake."
I frowned and said in a deep voice: "There are six coffins, but there are five people inside. Could it be that this sixth empty coffin..."
Hua Muling took over my words and said, "It's just for Hou Dayong."
I looked at Hua Muling and said, "In other words, it's for the three of us."
Hua Muling said: "Prepared for the three of us?"
I nodded and said: "That's right! No matter who among the three of us is poisoned by the five-step Biluo snake, he has to lie in it, and once he lies in, the plan of those guys will continue. Hey, It’s really a good calculation and a good method!”
Hua Muling gritted her teeth and said, "Who are these guys? What do they want to do?"
I said in a deep voice: "As for who they are and what they want to do, we still know nothing. However, judging from the previous phone call from unknown origin, it is at least related to our stolen door token, the four-square seal. This is like a It’s a game of cat and mouse, and since the cat wants to tease the mouse, it naturally won’t let its bait die so quickly, so I think they are safe at least for now.”
Hua Muling nodded and said, "What you said is correct!"
I sighed, then looked around, and said to Hua Muling: "There are many people with mixed eyes. I don't know if there is anyone among them among the hundred or so people. I took a look just now, and it seems that there are many people here." As for you disciples of Hua Handkerchief, please let them withdraw first! If you stay later, we will discuss it in detail if there is anything. Don’t worry, this matter started because of our Yiyuanzhai, and I, Hu Tian, will not let it go. ."
Hua Muling looked at me, and after a while, nodded and said, "I listen to you."
After saying that, Hua Muling turned around and walked towards a group of people wearing dark red clothes.
Seeing Hua Muling go to the flower handkerchief door, I turned around and said to Uncle Xu: "Uncle Xu, there are many people here and it's inconvenient to talk about many things. You are better than me in the next eight doors, please excuse me. Send these people away first and tell them that Yiyuanzhai will give an explanation to the other sects within a month."
Uncle Xu nodded and said, "No problem."
I nodded and continued: "In addition, Uncle Xu, could you please ask someone to carry these coffins to the backyard of Yiyuanzhai and place them carefully. By the way, we also asked someone to put Hou Dayong into the unoccupied coffin. Remember, there must be Just be extremely careful.”
Uncle Xu didn't say much. After nodding in agreement, he turned around and ordered people to do it.
After explaining these things, I took out a cigarette from my pocket, lit one, and took a deep breath.
The smoke swirled and drifted in front of my eyes. I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down. In my mind, I went through everything that happened today as fast as a movie. "Our old man and Ying Laoqi disappeared inexplicably in the morning, and then Xia Bamen The five heads of the house also disappeared, Hua Muling came to visit, and then they were attacked, and six big black coffins appeared..."
"Everything seems to have been rehearsed in advance..." I thought to myself.
I took a deep breath of cigarette, trying to find some clues from this messy incident, so that I could follow the clues to find out the guy behind the scenes.
But at this moment, a biting chill suddenly rose up from my spine. It felt like a poisonous snake crawling slowly along your back.
"Someone is watching me!"
This is an ability I developed in the army, and it is also an instinct for early warning of danger.
It only took less than half a second for this idea to come to my mind, but when I turned around and looked at the crowd that was gradually dispersing, I saw nothing.
"Who is it? What does he want to do?" I thought to myself.
But before I had time to think about it, the phone in my pocket rang. I took out the phone and glanced at the number on the screen. The caller turned out to be the unfamiliar number from before.
I picked up the phone and said coldly: "Hey, what do you want to do?"
The voice on the other end of the phone chuckled: "I told you, I want you to steal the four-sided seal as a token of the door. But..."
