Chapter 65 Looking for Apo(2/2)

"So you've been watching this all the time." Wu Zhongyuan said.

Zhao Ying nodded.

Knowing that he could not go back in a short period of time, Wu Zhongyuan also accepted this fact. At this time, the only thing he could do was wait. After the official people cleaned the battlefield, they would go back to find what the thin man said.

Zhao Ying has been closely observing the situation near the mountain. She had a very accurate estimate. Before dark, the bodies were moved away, the crystal coffin in the stone chamber was also carried down the mountain, and the armor left by the middle-aged Taoist was also loaded with a car to transport it away, but the people who had cleaned up the aftermath did not leave, and remained near the mountain, looking for clues that might be missing.

If those people don’t leave, the two of them can’t go back. Whether Wu Zhongyuan wants or not, he has to wait.

The people stayed nearby for three days, searching all corners, and did not put away the tents on the evening of the third day.

The next morning, the two of them got on the Audi car used by the hotel to pick up and drop off VIPs and headed straight to the peak of the incident. To be precise, it was the village northeast of the peak of the incident. The thin man and the sheep man came out of the village on horseback that day, and Abo should also live in that village.

At around 11 o'clock in the afternoon, the two arrived at the village. The village was called Dongze Village, with more than 300 households. It is a village where multiple ethnic groups live together.

What happened a few days ago has spread in the village, and the streets and alleys are talking about this matter. It was not until this time that Wu Zhongyuan learned the names of the two. The thin man was named Yao Ziqin and the sheep man named Liu Zilong. The reason why the surname was not Wu was probably because the Tibetan and Chinese pronunciations were different, and the old wizard did not leave the surname Wu.

After the two entered the village, they asked the elderly who were sitting at the entrance of the village to bask in the sun who was named Abo, but the old people didn't know that there was such a person. Abo was the name of the Han people. There were not many Han people in this village. They knew each Han people and insisted that no one called this name.

I went to another place to inquire and the answer I got was the same, there was no Abo in the village.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan's mood depressed, Zhao Ying comforted, "Don't worry, maybe it's from the neighboring village. Let's go to the nearby village to inquire."

Wu Zhongyuan nodded.

"Let's go, the car is still waiting at the entrance of the village." Zhao Ying said.

"You go out first, I'll go to their house to have a look." Wu Zhongyuan said.

"I'll go with you." Zhao Ying said.

Wu Zhongyuan did not object.

Liu Zilong's home is in the west of the village, and the two went to his house first. The Liu family was still immersed in sadness. Wu Zhongyuan only said that he was Liu Zilong's friend and was visiting them.

Through conversation, I found that the Liu family did not know the true situation of Liu Zilong, and they didn’t even know that Liu Zilong could do martial arts. They had never heard of Abo.

When asked if Liu Zilong had any relics left, the Liu family only said that they were some clothes, and they were all burned a few days ago.

Before leaving, Wu Zhongyuan left 10,000 yuan, and he wanted to give more, but he didn't have much money either.

Yao Ziqin originally lived in the north of the village. When the two of them came to the door, the Yao family had a cold pot and a stove, so they didn't even make lunch.

The situation is similar to that of the Liu family. The Yao family didn't know that Yao Zilong knew martial arts, and he didn't know that he had been guarding the secret room in the southwest direction, and Yao Ziqin had no special relics left behind.

Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan wanted to get the money, Zhao Ying took out the pile given by Director Wang a few days ago. Ten thousand yuan was not much, but it was not too small for the herdsmen here. The Yao family was surprised and refused.

After repeated pushbacks, the Yao family finally accepted it. Both of the Yao family's children were in high school, and the pillars of the family were overturned, and the tuition fees would become a problem in the future.

When he walked to the door, Wu Zhongyuan rushed out to see him and asked, "Auntie, do you know a man named Abo?"

"Abo?" The woman looked puzzled.

"This person may be from our village or from several nearby villages." Wu Zhongyuan said.

The woman shook her head slowly, "I don't know."

Wu Zhongyuan was frustrated and disappointed, so he forced himself to say goodbye to the woman and her two children.

At this moment, the eldest son of the Yao family spoke, "Brother, why are you looking for Abo?"

Wu Zhongyuan turned around when he heard the voice, "Do you know Abo?"

The eldest son nodded, then shook his head, "I don't know anyone named Abo, but there is a sheep in my family called Abo."

Wu Zhongyuan felt a stern when he heard this, "What did you say?"

"Abo is a Bol goat from my family." said the eldest son.

"Where is it? Take me there quickly." Wu Zhongyuan said anxiously. What Yao Ziqin said before his death was to let him follow Abo, and did not say that Abo was a human being.

The eldest son did not respond, but looked at his mother and brother in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Wu Zhongyuan's heart rose to his throat.

"Abo is gone." said the eldest son.

"Ah?!" Wu Zhongyuan was so scared that he was speechless, "Did you kill it?"

"No, we sold it." said the eldest son.

The woman said, "The head of the family has passed away, the child is going to school again, no one is going to grazing. Yesterday afternoon, I sold all the sheep in my family."

Wu Zhongyuan rekindled his hope when he heard this, "Who did you sell it to?"

"Sold to the slaughterhouse." said the woman.
