Spring Forest Evening

To say that I have been working hard to find that person before, I feel like I want to get rid of him quickly, but now I am really told that the person may be somewhere not far away. For some reason, Zhou Heng feels a little uneasy Got up, biting her lips, even Mrs. Peng could see it, and comforted her in a low voice on the way:

"Don't worry, Ah Zuo, Uncle He, you don't care about other things, but you are reliable in his actions. Since he sent someone to notify you, he has made all the preparations. Don't be afraid!"

Indifferent to other aspects?What aspect is out of tune?Zhou Heng actually wanted to ask Mrs. Peng, but now she was a little flustered, and felt that she had to solve the problem before her.

Afterwards, the three of them followed the guard and went upstream in a carriage. Zhou Heng lay on the window and looked out all the way, only to see that the roadside vendors gradually decreased. In the end, even the peach forests that had originally formed It began to become sparse, leaving only some bushes, covering some strange rocks.

The water potential of the Taohua River is obviously different. In a few places, you can tell that it is quite turbulent just by listening to the sound, and you can even see some splashes caused by hitting the rocks on the shore.

When the guard spoke outside, the three lifted the curtain and got out of the car, only to find that they had come to a place where there was a forest. The river here was relatively wide and the current was not so dangerous. It was probably the big sun-shading hat that he had brought before, and he said, "Uncle He ordered, please also bring it, this subordinate bought it on the side of the road before, and it is new!" He handed it to Zhou Heng while talking.

Zhou Heng took it curiously. She had never worn such a pure natural straw hat before. After receiving it, she touched the bamboo strips and leaves on it curiously. Seeing the guard's uneasy eyes, she asked Chunyu to help her. worn on the head.

"Oh, this straw hat is really light, and it's comfortable to wear!" Zhou Heng felt that it was very fresh. Seeing that the guard seemed to be relieved, he smiled and comforted him: "Are you afraid that you can't buy it? I like it very much." Yes!" The wide brim of the hat has a great sunshade effect, but the shape is not modern enough, otherwise you can wear it directly to the beach, hehe.

After the compliment was over, I felt a little embarrassed when I saw the guard was empty-handed, but Chun Yu and Mrs. Peng didn't seem to have it.

Fortunately, the guard explained later, with a serious face: "The girl will follow her subordinates to identify people later, and she is wearing this bamboo hat to cover herself."

As it turns out, Zhou Heng also heaved a sigh of relief.

And Mrs. Peng patted Zhou Heng's hand again, and said in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, with you Uncle He here, there is no problem."

Do you trust your Ah Zuo so much?Zhou Heng really wanted to tease Aunt Peng, but now he was really nervous, so he smiled and replied, "Well, I'm not afraid!"

After that, the four of them walked into the peach forest by the river.

After walking for a while, the guard in front stood still and said, "Girl wait a moment!" Then he took out a bamboo whistle and made a few bird-like sounds not far ahead, and Zhou Heng listened. Then, it was similar to the ones I heard in the restaurant before, and I knew it was the code they used to communicate.

Sure enough, Uncle He and a few of his subordinates quickly walked out of the place where there seemed to be shrubs in the woods. Seeing Zhou Heng standing behind the guard with a big bamboo hat, Uncle He cupped his hands and said to her: " Miss Biao has worked hard!" He glanced at Mrs. Peng and Chun Yu again.

"No hard work, no hard work!" Zhou Heng quickly waved his hands.

Uncle He stopped being courteous, and just led her to continue walking under the lead of the guards in front, and introduced to her in a low voice while walking: "Our people came here with those people, and they were almost lost. Walking along the vicinity, I found that the mountain was empty, surrounded by a rather large pool, connected to the Taohua River, but the exit was quite narrow, because it was upstream, so few people came here on weekdays. , the exit is so narrow, you won’t notice much when you come here, but those people picked a good place, and guess what happened?”

let me guessZhou Heng remembered what Uncle He asked the guard to bring, since he was a damned boatman, he must...

"They swim here, oh no, fushui?"

Fushui?That's right, Uncle He nodded, and said in a deep voice, "They're preparing for a similar thing to last time!"

Damn, are these people professional killers?Fortunately, it's a sunny day, otherwise it would be a bit creepy.

Uncle He glanced at her and saw that she was still calm, so he talked about the boatman again: "Those people built a boat in this pool, and I don't know who prepared it in advance. The boat is not small, and I don't know how they got it. It took some effort to get it in, the place where the pond is connected to the Taohua River is quite narrow, and the current outside is quite strong, so it is not easy to get in, or it was lowered from the mountain."

"However, this pool should be quite deep. The river outside is turbulent, but inside it is calm. The boat was supposed to be tied somewhere beside the pool. Our people were afraid of being exposed, so we deliberately found another way up the mountain. We will also go up later. Go up from there."

"When our people went up the mountain, they saw that the boat had slowly swung into the middle of the pool. The two of them paddled slowly on it, one behind the other. The rest of the people stood and chatted leisurely. I took a look. , although it doesn’t look very real, but it should be the people from Tangquan Town, the two people paddling, and the other leader on the boat, but I don’t know them.”

"It was nothing at first. Although the people on our side were a little skeptical, they thought they were here to have fun and drink some water. Now it's hot today, but after watching it for a while, the leader on the boat shouted One voice."

"After that, the group of people jumped into the water one after another. Don't worry, Miss Biao, they all changed the water tank."

Mikao?Zhou Heng didn't know which word it was, but guessed it was an ancient swimsuit?I had no choice but to pretend to ask Uncle He: "Do they know how to swim?"

"It looks like it will," Uncle He nodded: "But I guess it's the first day here, I watched, and some of them hesitated for a while. I quickly got used to it, and my skills were pretty good, and then I did some gestures to see who could swim to the edge of the pool the fastest."

Uncle He said that he is a landlubber, and seeing those people are quite powerful, swimming very fast, and the pool is quite big, watching them swim back and forth is still very energetic.

"At first we didn't think too much about the person in charge, but when we saw those people in the water swimming back to the side of the boat one after another, that person suddenly grabbed a boatman's oar and made a gesture to beat the people in the water. At that time we Everyone here almost screamed."

"Fortunately, they seemed to be fighting. Later, when I thought about Miss Biao's situation that day, I always felt that the behavior of the people on the boat was similar to what the boatman dealt with you in Liuhu last time. Recognize, is it the same person?"

So it turned out that Zhou Heng was a little curious. Could it be that this group of people who look like professional killers still enjoy killing people?

Coincidentally, Uncle He seemed to have the same thought, and now he stopped, and Wen Yan said to Aunt Peng and Chun Yu behind him: "Although there are vegetation covering it, but it is broad daylight, I am afraid that the other party will find it for no reason. , Senior Sister, you and Ayu are not too dull in clothes today, or you should stay here and wait for us."

So that's the case, no wonder I only bought a bamboo hat. Zhou Heng saw that the two of them were a little worried, so he smiled and said: "It's okay, we should be back soon."

"Then be careful yourself." Aunt Peng reminded again, and then glared at Uncle He next to her: "Take care of Ah Heng!"

"That's natural!" Uncle He's chubby face was covered with sweat, and there was a look of helplessness on his face.

Zhou Heng looked at the two of them, thought for a while, and decided that he should go up the mountain with the guards himself: "Either you don't go up, Uncle He, if you are discovered, those people know you, or It’s fine for the two of us to go up, oh yes, may I ask your surname?”

Hearing that the guard was a little embarrassed to say that his surname was Zhan, Zhou Heng called him "Guard Zhan": "There should be some of you up there, right? Then don't worry!"

"In case I'm found out, I was the one who put yellow powder on me before. They are all unfamiliar faces. They can be fooled by saying that they have lost their way out for fun. Otherwise, there are so many of them, don't worry about it." All of us have been exposed, and this Zhongnan Road is their territory, which is more or less ominous."

This made Uncle He make up his mind: "So, there is Miss Lao Biao! Whether it is that person or not, you just need to identify it, and you don't need to worry about anything else, just come down!"

He also told the Zhan guard: "You must take good care of Miss Biao, and don't get hurt in any way."

"Don't worry, we'll be back soon!" Zhou Heng waved to the three worried faces behind, and followed the Zhan guard up the mountain.

"Girl, don't be afraid." The Zhan guard was steady, and while helping Zhou Heng open the way, he explained to her in a low voice: "Let's go up the mountain now, where the trees are lush, and you are wearing this big bamboo hat. When you go to the mountainside and look outside, you should use this bamboo hat to block it, so that you won't be noticed easily."

Zhou Heng agreed with an "um", and followed him to continue walking up the mountain.

Not long after walking up the mountain, I felt some faint shouts coming from nowhere, and when the two of them reached the halfway up the mountain, I felt that the voice from somewhere below gradually became clearer. The Zhan guard introduced to her:

"There is a relatively open place above, and our people are there. Wait for Miss Biao to be careful not to make any noise, and don't be afraid. The bottom is actually a little far away from us, and we will definitely not be found."

"Okay, with you guys here, I'm not afraid!" Seeing that two guards had appeared in front of him, Zhou Heng walked a little out of breath, but also a little excited, the truth is in front of him, nnd, I hope it's the murderer!

And the result was not disappointing. Under the guidance of those guards, Zhou Heng, holding a big bamboo hat to cover his pale pink dress, bent down and walked behind a big rock in the open area to look down. Seeing the pool of blue water at the bottom, there was a slight mountain wind blowing, causing ripples on the water surface.

On the other hand, one of the ships, which was quite large in Zhou Heng's eyes, looked very stable. There were five or six people lying on the deck, and three people stood there as if joking.

Listening to the introduction of the two guards who have been guarding here, the people below have practiced for a long time before, and they are practicing how to fight with the person holding the oar on the boat. Now it happens to be a rest time.

Zhou Heng held his breath and looked at it intently, the few people lying down belonged to the house in Tangquan Town, and the remaining three standing still couldn't see clearly for a while.

Fortunately, not long after, the man standing in the middle raised his head, and Zhou Heng looked, um, he was in his early forties, with a strong figure, a bunt, and his voice was very loud. The most important thing was just that. In an instant, for some reason, the man turned his head up and smiled, so the moment in his memory that made him have nightmares for several days suddenly coincided with the scene in front of him—

At that time, the boatman also smiled suddenly, and then pulled out two oars that were half fixed, and swept the two maidservants into the water!

There was a mountain wind blowing slowly, Zhou Heng felt cold all over his body, his legs and feet were weak, and he slowly slipped to the ground leaning on the rock:

"It's him!"
