Chapter 2 The Strange Murder in the Gold Mine
The public leader of the Butterfly Gang is Chen Biao, known as Uncle Biao or Brother Bao. He is a ruthless man. If he brings the gangsters from the Butterfly Gang to trouble me, I will be in real trouble. Now the boss behind the scenes is Chen Youyuan.
, on the surface he is a legitimate businessman, although there is a hint of threat in his tone, there is still room for negotiation, so my master tried to speak as tactfully as possible.
Chen Youyuan, a predator who takes both black and white, is not that easy to deal with. He said expressionlessly: "It is not convenient for outsiders to know about my matter, so Mr. Zhou promised to help me solve it, so I can tell him; if he doesn't help me solve it, I will
I won’t tell you.”
Master's face was very ugly. If the matter could be solved easily, Chen Youyuan would not come to us and use it as a threat, so if we agree, we may not be able to do it, but if we don't agree, Master and I will definitely not have a good time in the future.
The room fell silent, and the atmosphere was a bit tense. Chen Youyuan was very calm and not in a hurry, as if he had convinced us.
Master has told me many times that before doing something, you must have a full understanding of it, understand the causes and consequences, and then do it according to your ability. For example, if a person does too many bad things, God will make him seriously ill and suffer a lot.
Pain as punishment, if you cure him, you may have to bear this sin.
If it is just ordinary fortune-telling, asking about wealth and future, etc., it is not a big problem to give some advice. For example, this person is already blessed with wealth, and you give him some advice, but you will only get the money that he should have received in a few years.
Yes, it's like getting an advance from the bank. When he gets rich, he spends the money to do good deeds and repay the interest, so he doesn't owe the bank, his life hasn't changed much, and you haven't destroyed the cause and effect and balance. If it's a change
For major events such as fortune, saving people's lives, and pointing out Feng Shui treasures, you must have a deep understanding of the person's character. Only those who are truly virtuous and blessed can help him, and he must pay a corresponding price.
Chen Youyuan is a big bad guy who pretends to be a good person. What he is asking for now is also a big thing, and he doesn't know what he wants to do. According to my master's rules, he will never agree to it, and with his cautious attitude towards life, he will never agree to it.
But after hesitating for dozens of seconds, my master agreed.
I know that Master is for me. The reality is cruel. I am not a super hero. At least for now, I can’t defeat the Butterfly Gang. He can only pave the way for me in this way. I am very touched and angry. If I had
With super strength, you must look good to these gangsters and bullies!
Chen Youyuan's expression was a little unnatural, and he forced a smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal. Last year, I contracted a gold mine with others, and it was always normal. But last month, things started to disappear. The workers said it was haunted. I
We asked someone to take care of it, and then everything was fine. A few days ago, a worker hanged himself because he had a quarrel with the supervisor and couldn't think about it. The next day, another worker accidentally fell into the crusher..."
When Chen Youyuan said this, the muscles on his face jumped unconsciously, and both young men had a look of fear on their faces. Master and I both understood that the matter was not as simple as he said, and the scene of the incident must be
It was extremely scary, and he was still frightened.
Master asked: "What did the Public Security Bureau say?"
"Well..." Chen Youyuan hesitated before saying, "The person who hanged himself has been ruled out as a murderer. The machine crushing the person was an accident. You don't have to worry about the Public Security Bureau. Go and see if there are any ghosts. If there are any, help me.
Solve it. I won't let your work go in vain. I will give you 20,000 yuan after the matter is over, and no one will dare to be rude to you in the future."
The master asked: "Where is the gold mine?"
Chen Youyuan said that at the foot of the Yingzui Cliff in Houyi Village, XX Township, my master's face immediately became heavy. However, I have never heard of the name of this village and it is not from our township, so I don't know what he is worried about.
Master asked again: "Is there anyone there now?"
"There is no one left, I can send someone and a car to take you there."
The master said: "I want to find a worker who was present at the time and ask what happened."
Chen Youyuan hesitated for a while, but agreed, and urged us to leave now. Several shareholders of the gold mine are well-connected people in the city, and it would be difficult for him to explain the shutdown for too long. Construction will start in three days at most.
I originally didn't want to get involved in this matter, but Master had already agreed, so I had no choice but to go along. So I went home and tidied up briefly, and told my mother that I was just going to the Transcendence Dojo with Master, and that I would have to go there for several days, most of it.
After an hour, I took Chen Youyuan's car and left.
After I got on the road, I learned from my master where the Yingzui Cliff in Houyi Village was. In fact, that place was not far from our village in a straight line, only a few dozen kilometers. However, it did not belong to our township and there was no road leading there. We had to
It takes a long way to get there. Houyi Village is very close to Yunding Mountain, and Yingzui Cliff is the cliff formed by the branch of Yunding Mountain. Only then did I realize that Master looked very ugly when he heard the name of the place, because it is very close to "Menggui Village"
!
Within a few hundred miles of our area, there are two most famous and miraculous mountains. One is Immortal Rock, because it is said that a female Taoist priest once attained immortality on the top of the mountain; the other is Yunding Mountain. The top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round and has thousands of cliffs.
, there is a fierce ghost village under a certain cliff, and no one dares to approach it.
To say that no one dared to come close is a bit too absolute. Once when my second master, Lao Linzi, was drunk and bragging about how brave he was, he said that he had been there. But when I asked him again after he sobered up, he refused to admit it. I
I seriously suspect that my master Zhou Tan has also been there, but he refuses to say anything. Menggui Village is like a taboo place. Not only does no one want to get close to it, but they are not even willing to mention it.
Could it be said that Chen Youyuan's gold mine was influenced by Menggui Village? I was a little excited, but also a little uneasy. What was exciting was that Master had no escape this time and had to tell me about Menggui Village. What was uneasy was that Master had to tell me about Menggui Village.
Master now only has a wealth of theory and experience, but basically no practical ability. I have only studied for less than a year, and I can’t even count as half a bucket of water. I don’t have much practical ability. What’s worse is that since that time the talisman paper was
After the big camphor tree hit me hard, I could no longer sense the vixen in my body. When I encountered danger, I had no shield or trump card.
When we arrived at the location of our township, Chen Youyuan received a call saying that he could not take us there in person. He also found a minivan to take us to Houyi Village, and someone would receive us there.
The driver was a middle-aged man who didn't talk much and just drove. We arrived at Houyi Village at around six o'clock in the evening.
This is a small village with only a few dozen households. There is a small river in front of the village and a few terraced fields behind the village. All around you are steep mountains. The terrain is extremely narrow. It is a real ravine. There is still the sunset outside the mountains at this time.
, but it already seemed very dark and cold here, with the sounds of various birds and animals coming and going.
There was a man in his fifties wandering at the entrance of the village. When he saw the car coming, he hurried over to greet it. I could see at a glance that his eyes were a little expectant and a little uneasy. It was obvious that he was under a lot of psychological pressure. He introduced himself as this
The head of the village received a call from Chen Youyuan and came to pick us up here. After asking for our names, he actually heard of my master and my ancestor, and even said that they were famous names that he had admired for a long time.
Houyi Village is not an administrative village. It used to be a production team, but now it is a natural village. It has only one director, who is customarily called the village chief. It is still more than ten miles away from the gold mine, and the mountain road is very difficult to walk.
We'll spend the night here and head into the mountains tomorrow.
As we were walking to the village chief's house, the master asked casually: "Is this road newly built not long ago?"
The village chief said: "Yes, in the past we could only use hand trucks. Last year, Boss Chen opened a gold mine and opened the road."
"Oh, you don't have a lot of fields here?"
The village chief was originally very nervous, but when he saw that all the questions asked by my master were trivial and commonplace questions, he relaxed a little: "Yes, a person has less than one acre of land and can only plant one crop. In the past, he dug some
Bamboo shoots, collecting some herbs and selling them for money, life is not easy. Big changes have taken place in the past two years. There are cars, telephones and closed-circuit (TV). It all depends on Boss Chen!"
The master smiled: "How was the gold mine discovered here?"
"Well, a few years ago, a few people from Shanxi came here and washed the sand in the river with wooden basins. After washing for a few days, we realized that there was gold sand, and everyone followed suit. Later, more and more people were digging for gold.
, the news was passed to the top, and people were sent down to detect it. They said there was a gold mine upstream, and then they stopped mining."
The master said: "It's so close. Many people in your village also work in the gold mine, right?"
"That's right, there are six regular miners in our village, and temporary workers are on call at any time. We also contract the canteen, and we often do purchasing and delivery work..."
How can the old village chief be my master's opponent? In just a few words, my master figured out the basic situation in the village. With my master's level, it would be a waste not to become a criminal police officer!
The village chief entertained us warmly, with good cigarettes, good wine, and rich dishes. The master chatted with him all the time. On other matters, the village chief answered all our questions and talked a lot, but when it came to gold
When he heard about the murder in the mine, he immediately became nervous and said he didn't know anything.
After dinner, the village chief followed Chen Youyuan's instructions and called a villager who used to work in the gold mine to cooperate with my master's investigation. This villager reacted almost the same as the village chief. He answered questions readily when asked about other matters. When asked about the deaths in the gold mine,
He was not very clear about the matter. The person who died was not in the same position as him, and what he said was the same as what Chen Youyuan said.
Obviously there are some things that Chen Youyuan doesn't want us to know. He has already told the relevant people about it, and everyone agrees. To use a more professional term, it is "collusion."
Master and I are very confused, why are we not informed of the specific circumstances of the deceased? If the death is a supernatural incident, we should be told in detail; if it is murder or homicide, we are not police and are not here to catch criminals, and there is no need to deal with them.
