Seeing several large and small vehicles carrying armed policemen passing by, several uncles kept their mouths shut, but their eyes were filled with anger. One old man waited until the cars had passed by, picked up a stone, threw it forward, and vomited violently.

A mouthful of thick phlegm. They were angry, but at the same time they also had expressions of despair and helplessness on their faces.

Lin Mei pulled my hand and looked at me with pleading eyes, hoping that I could help those people. I shook my head slightly. If it was a ghost or something causing trouble, I would take action without further explanation.

I really don’t understand things like resisting demolition and going to court. I’m an onmyoji, not a lawyer.

The uncles cursed and left, and Lin Mei and I continued to wait for the bus, but after waiting for a long time, no bus passed by. When I went to the grocery store on the roadside to buy mineral water, the boss glanced around and whispered: "

You should take a detour, the road ahead has been closed for several days, and there are no cars going in this direction."

I was surprised: "You shouldn't do this for demolition, right?"

The boss was a middle-aged woman who was a talkative type. She immediately said: "Originally, it was no big deal, but when someone made trouble, some went to the police to complain, some beat people, and even smashed police cars. This is serious..."

Soon I figured out the general cause and effect of the matter: a certain previous high-ranking official took a fancy to a piece of land and wanted to build it into a model town, a new rural city, etc., so he demolished a village not far from here.

The villagers didn’t have a lot of money. A few years later, the new town was built, and it was indeed very beautiful and grand. Most of the original residents

People spent all their savings, bought a new home at a "cheap" price and moved in. However, this new city looks beautiful, but it is uncomfortable to live in. Various service facilities have not kept up with it. There are too few people to move in and business cannot be done.

Some people have lost their land, and their houses have not appreciated in value and cannot be sold. In short, the villagers are very dissatisfied.

After living there for two or three years, the villagers gradually got used to their new home. Half a month ago, they suddenly said that the officials who gave the instructions for the construction of this "new city" had corruption problems. They were not in compliance with laws and regulations and must be demolished. There were also restrictions.

It took time. This time the official gave a very generous compensation, but many villagers did not agree. They accepted it emotionally.

I couldn't stand it, it was not easy to settle down, and some things couldn't be solved by paying money, so I made all kinds of troubles, which were quite big. The official paid special attention to this matter and insisted on demolishing it within a time limit, and because

The villagers have strictly controlled the disturbances and blocked information, so the conflicts have further escalated and are now very tense...

This matter really had nothing to do with me, and I couldn't control it, so I pulled Lin Mei and left, taking detours to avoid disaster. But before I had gone far, Lin Mei stopped: "Brother, I

I think we should go take a look."

"This... forget it, this matter has nothing to do with us." I didn't want to disappoint her, but I really couldn't help.

Lin Mei said: "I think when we come here, we happen to encounter something like this, and it's our turn to take care of it."

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Women are women, and there are always times when they are vulnerable and unreasonable. Lin Mei has never been so nosy and unreasonable before.

Seeing my embarrassed look, Lin Mei added, "I feel like the terrain here is a bit familiar. Maybe I've been here before... or maybe I've been here in a dream, so I think it really has something to do with us."

I immediately thought of her dreaming about her grandfather for three consecutive days. Is this really weird? In fact, it’s okay to go and take a look, as long as I don’t interfere with the affairs of the villagers and officers and soldiers. If I don’t go and take a look, Lin Mei will definitely be in a bad mood.

I was greatly affected, so I nodded in agreement.

Lin Mei and I walked forward for more than ten minutes when a car came from behind and we avoided the roadside. The moment the car passed by, I saw a familiar person in the car, but I couldn't remember who it was.

who.

Xiaoxue said: "Why did you forget, that is the old Taoist Hideout, and his apprentice is also in the car. Why does this old Taoist shave his beard and wear regular clothes? Does he want to return to secular life and become an official?"

I suddenly realized that it was him, and he was really different without a big beard. Hey, what was Mizang doing here? I had seen him a few times in Taoist costumes before, how could he be willing to wear that big beard?

The beautiful beard clicked?

Xiaoxue said: "The road ahead was closed, but he drove there in a high-end car. Could it be that he changed his profession and became a house demolition manager?"

This is indeed very suspicious, and the relationship between Muzang and Lu Chengshan is extraordinary. Lu Chengshan is an official. Could it be that this demolition incident is also related to Lu Chengshan? Now even if Lin Mei doesn't ask me to go, I will go and take a look.

.

Not far ahead, the road was blocked by a group of young officers and soldiers armed with weapons. Each of them had serious and majestic expressions, but there was a childish look on their faces.

Seeing Lin Mei and I approaching calmly, they became a little nervous. They all stared at me and tightened their guns. A young armed policeman raised his hand to us to stop: "This place is under martial law and we are not allowed to move forward."

"

I asked: "Didn't someone drive by just now?"

"That's the leader!"

"Oh, then may I ask why the martial law was imposed and who was the leader just now?"

The young armed policeman immediately made a serious face: "What are you talking about? Who are you and what are you doing here?"

I guess they couldn't take it for granted, so I smiled and said, "I'm just passing by here. Since I'm not allowed to pass, I'll just take a detour. I don't know how big the scope of the martial law is."

Another armed policeman said: "There is trouble in the town ahead, so the martial law has been tightened. It seems that your accent is from outside. Let's go quickly and don't ask for trouble."

I nodded and led Lin Mei back. I didn't want to get into trouble with these inexperienced grown-up kids. There must be something unusual about Muzang Taoist appearing here as a leader. I'd better go in quietly and take a look.

The so-called martial law only blocked the main thoroughfares and did not form a tight siege, so Lin Mei and I walked not far away and climbed the mountain to avoid those people.

After climbing to the top of the hill, you can see an open land at the foot of the mountain with green mountains and green water. There is a brand-new building next to the mountain and water. The houses are not too high, the planning is orderly, the roads are well-organized, and the greening is good. It is among the mountains and rivers.

It feels a bit like a villa complex. It is such a nice place with up-to-date living facilities. It is an ideal home. It is really heartbreaking to demolish it.

Lin Mei was looking around: "I always feel that this place is familiar. The direction of the mountain and the river seem to have been here before..."

I asked: "Could it be that your grandfather or parents took you here when you were very young?"

"No, I never left the Snake Chang Valley when I was a child. Maybe it was in my dream that day that my grandpa brought me here?"

I can only explain it this way. I looked away from the town and looked back and forth a few times. I also felt that the mountains and rivers were familiar. Suddenly, I thought of something and almost jumped up with excitement. I hurriedly said: "Xiaoxue,

Quickly take out the treasure map and show it to me!"

"Treasure map?" Xiaoxue was a little confused.

"It's the treasure map I got from Snake Chang Valley. I put it in a book."

"Ah, let me look for it."

Lin Mei exclaimed excitedly: "Yes, yes, I remembered it. The terrain here is just like the one on the treasure map. Only the town is different. No wonder it looks familiar to me."

When I got the treasure map, Xiaoxue was still sealed in my body and could only communicate with me occasionally, so I had no impression of the treasure map. Later, as time went by, even I forgot about it, let alone her.

But Lin Mei had studied the treasure map carefully for a period of time, and it had penetrated into her mind, so she immediately felt familiar when she was there.

After a few seconds, the treasure map appeared in my hand. I hurriedly opened it to look at it, and Lin Mei also came over to look at it. Sure enough, the direction of the mountains and the location of the river near us were consistent with the treasure map. Only the original

The small villages have now become quite large new towns, and some places that were originally farmland have also been turned into buildings or planted with vegetation.

There is no doubt that this is where the Boxers buried their treasures! The Boxer Movement was launched from Shandong and Hebei, and the most active area was also in this area. This is their hometown, so they buried the treasures here when the situation was not good.

It's totally possible!

I thought I would never find these treasures, but I didn't expect to come here. Moreover, we came here only after Lin Mei had a series of dreams. Could it be that there is some providence in the dark? Lin Mei was also very excited, so much so that we came here.

Yu shed tears. What excited her was not the value of the treasure itself, but finding the place where her ancestors had walked and finding her hometown. After everything in Snake Chang Valley was lost, this treasure was the connection between her and her ancestors and relatives.

ties of ties.

Xiaoxue said: "Don't get too excited yet. It has been completely rebuilt. Maybe the treasure has been dug away."

"No, it has definitely not been dug out yet!" I said with certainty, "It's all nonsense about corrupt officials being sacked and demolishing things that don't comply with regulations. The purpose is to dig deep to find the treasure! In order to find the treasure

, he did not hesitate to demolish a newly built town!"

Anger flashed in Lin Mei's eyes: "It must have been done by Lu Chengshan, as evidenced by the fact that Hide came here! He investigated that the treasure was here, but he couldn't determine the location without a treasure map, so he had to drive away the villagers and demolish all the houses. He sent

Many officers and soldiers were mobilized, not only to drive away the villagers, but also to prevent the news from leaking..."

I was so excited. Lu Chengshan wouldn’t do such a great job for the treasure, so it must be for the jade talisman! At that time, he said that the two jade talismans in the hands of the Boxers were genuine, but I only found one in Shechang Valley.

, then the probability that the other piece is inside the treasure is very high! In fact, I should have thought of it a long time ago. The last clue I was looking for was in my pocket!

Lu Chengshan had definitely suspected that the last jade talisman was in the Boxer treasures and had determined its general location, but why didn't he tell me? More than ten days ago, I asked him if he had any clues about the last jade talisman. He was a little hesitant.
Chapter completed!
