Chapter 453 Clues

  A low-key black Audi car quietly came to the town of Four Seasons.

  This is the only way to go to Crock Pot Village.

   coincides with the last lively temple fair in the past year. There are many vendors and pedestrians in the town.

  The car passed through the crowd with difficulty, and the sound of the beeping horn caused the dissatisfaction of the pedestrians.

   "Don't whistle." Li Ling instructed the driver.

  The driver is one of his subordinates, a fresh graduate named Chen Wei, who was assigned to his subordinates and acted a little irritably.

  Li Juan in the passenger seat pointed to the turntable in front and said, "Turn right ahead."

  Bo Yuxun half lowered the car window, and saw a candy man vendor skillfully use tools to draw a vivid candy man on a template, surrounded by a group of laughing and noisy children, full of human fireworks.

   Suddenly, Bo Yuxun's eyes narrowed.

   "Stop."

   The driver was originally nervous, but when he heard Bo Yuxun's words, he immediately stepped on the brakes.

   The car hadn't stopped yet, and Bo Yuxun couldn't wait to open the car door and go out.

   Go straight to the sugar figurine vendor and pick up a sugar figurine stuck on a prop.

   That is the appearance of a young girl, her hands clasped together, her eyelids slightly drooping, her belt is in the wind, and her skirt is fluttering.

   Looking at the girl's eyebrows and eyes again, there is compassion hidden in the beauty, like a Bodhisattva walking out of a picture scroll, which can't help but make people admire.

  The craftsmanship of the master is really vivid and lifelike, and the demeanor of the girl is vividly and vividly portrayed.

   A group of children looked at the tall man who suddenly appeared in surprise. His gestures were mature and graceful, which these township children had never seen before, and they stared blankly for a while.

   That handsome face is much prettier than the stars on TV.

   The master of the candy man is an uncle in his fifties. His temples are white, and his wrinkles are full of traces of wind, frost and years.

   He looked at the man in front of him in surprise. Seeing him staring at the sugar man in his hand in a daze, he said with a smile: "Mr. come from a big city, you have good eyesight."

  Bo Yuxun squeezed the sticky stick of Sugar Man and murmured, "Der Spiegel?"

  Master Sugar Man was even happier, and said proudly: "It seems that our Master Mingjing is very famous now, and her husband also knows her. She is a big celebrity in our local area, and everyone in the eight villages knows it."

   pointed to Mount Baektu in the distance: "Jingyue Temple where Master Mingjing became a monk is on the top of this mountain."

   "Master Mingjing has a compassionate heart and has helped us a lot. We are all her believers. Even if she leaves now, we will always remember her kindness."

  Bo Yuxun saw that a child was holding the candy man of the mirror in his hand, but he smiled sweetly.

   Seeing that the child was about to put the candy man in his mouth, Bo Yuxun hurriedly stopped him.

"etc."

   Under the confused eyes of the other party, Bo Yuxun opened his wallet, and there was only some scattered foreign currency. After returning to China, mobile payment was so convenient that he had not seen RMB for a long time.

  Bo Yuxun looked back at Li Ling in the car, "Lend me some banknotes."

  Unfortunately, Li Ling's wallet is also empty.

   "Doctor Bo, I have it." Li Juan gave Li Ling all the banknotes on her body, adding up to more than 800 yuan.

   She is an illegal accountant and cannot get a bank card, and the only way to spend is cash.

  Bo Yuxun exchanged a one-hundred-yuan note for the candy man in the child's hand.

  The child hurriedly shoved the candy man to him, for fear that the other party would go back on it, he took the RMB and ran away.

   "I have it too. I have it too..."

   A group of children seemed to have found a way to make a fortune, and they crowded over with their sugar figures in their hands.

   "Come here one by one, there are all of them." After sending these children away, Bo Yuxun had a bunch of candy figures in his hand, and there was only one ten yuan bill left.

   Li Juan's heart ached when she saw it, as expected, he is a noble young master who has never seen suffering in the world, he is quite a prodigal...

  Bo Yuxun looked at the candy figurines filled with the props of the master candy figurine. It seems that Mingjing is indeed very popular in this small town. Her number of candy figurines can compete with the child king Sun Wukong.

The candy man smiled and took out all the candy figurines in Mingjing: "I see it, you like Master Mingjing very much, you are so discerning, I will give you these candymen for free, I hope Master Mingjing I can keep you safe."

  In their place, in addition to worshiping Bodhisattva during the Chinese New Year, they also worship Master Jingjing, and some homes even put up the Jingjing longevity card, and they have to worship when they have nothing to do.

  Bo Yuxun put the remaining few loose banknotes in the change box, then took off the watch on his wrist and put it in the change box.

"thanks."

   Under the shocked gaze of the boss, Bo Yuxun turned around and got into the car.

   "Really lavish boss, it seems that our Master Mingjing is really popular."

  Master Sugar Man picked up the watch and looked at it again and again. It was just an ordinary watch, except that it was clean and didn't see anything, so he put it on his wrist.

   "I'm missing a watch, so I'm welcome."

  The corner of Chen Wei's mouth twitched. He had seen that watch in a fashion magazine, a classic model of the world's top luxury watches.

   Six figures can't come down.

   It belongs to the money that money can't buy. In addition to being a member, the buyer's status must also be measured, and the purchase qualification can only be obtained after the review.

   And this Doctor Bo gave it away casually.

   He is so heartbroken! I really want to rob Master Sugar Man.

   Although Li Juan didn't know how much the watch cost, but Doctor Bo's things were definitely not cheap. She thought that the sugar man master was cheaper, and she would definitely redeem it when she found time.

   However, it can be seen that the mirror has an extraordinary weight in the heart of this thin doctor.

  Bo Yuxun admired the pile of candy people in his hand, and under Li Ling's strange sight, he carefully wrapped it up, for fear of breaking any corner.

   "Doctor Bo, Miss Mingjing is really popular in Siji Town. People here worship her and treat her as a bodhisattva."

  Li Juan couldn't help sighing.

   She pointed to the mountain top covered by clouds and mist in the distance.

"That is Mount Paektu. It was very famous when I was a child. There is a female master on the mountain who is famous far and wide, and her medical skills are also very good. The villagers of Shiliba Village have a difficult disease. It is more effective to find her than to find a doctor. I I never imagined that Miss Mingjing would actually be her disciple."

   What kind of fate is this?

  Bo Yusang and Li Ling looked up at the Baekdu Mountain at the same time.

   After leaving Siji Town, I thought the road would be easy to go, but who knew that it would take more than half an hour to walk, all of which were dirt roads in the countryside, bumpy and dusty, and completely backcountry.

  Li Juan saw a large earthen pot on the side of the road and sat up excitedly.

   "Arrived, here we are."

   As the name suggests, the reason why the Crock Pot Village is called the Crock Pot Village is because of a large crock pot at the entrance of the village, and there is a well-known story.

  Li Juan found Cunwei, and when she saw her house, she couldn't help covering her mouth and crying.

  The two dilapidated tile-roofed houses were crumbling, the walls of the courtyard were devastated and the wooden doors were corroded by the beauty of the wind.

   "Juanzi? Is that Juanzi?" An old woman at the door with a vegetable basket hunched over her waist, as if she couldn't believe it, and took a few steps forward to take a closer look.

  Li Juan saw the person coming and thought about it, "Second aunt?"

   Every wrinkle of the old woman is full of disbelief: "Really Juanzi? Are you still alive?"

   "I'm still alive." Li Juan rushed over and hugged the old woman.

   "Juanzi, we all thought you were dead, why didn't you come back after so many years?"

  The two hugged and cried bitterly, and the person watching this picture had a sore nose.

  Li Ling walked around the house, broke the rusty door lock and entered the main house. Rats were rampant in the house, and the furniture and items were all weathered and became a breeding ground for rats.

There is a family portrait on the wall, brushing away the dust accumulated over the years. In the photo, in addition to a middle-aged couple with a kind face, they are a pair of twin sisters with braids. The two have the same face. Clear features, one lively, one restrained and gentle.

  A hand reached over, took off the frame, and took out the photo.

   A hot tear dripped onto the photo.

  Li Juan hugged the photo and knelt on the ground, crying heartbreakingly.

   The old woman sighed and came over to help her up.

   "It's good to be alive, where's your sister?"

  Li Juan cried out of breath.

   A clean handkerchief was brought to her. The owner of the handkerchief had a pair of very beautiful and slender hands.

  Li Juan took the handkerchief: "Thank you Doctor Bo."

  Bo Yuxun gently patted her back, giving her silent comfort and strength.

  Li Juan wiped her tears, she took a deep breath, "Second aunt, let me ask you something."

  The old woman was sensitive to her serious tone, and subconsciously stood up straight with her hunched back.

   "What do you want to ask? The second aunt will tell you everything she knows."

  Li Juan organized the language and said slowly: "Thirteen years ago, about the night when it snowed, did my sister come back?"

  The old man has a bad memory, let alone thirteen years ago.

   The old woman frowned and seemed to be trying hard to recall.

   "It's been too long, I don't have a good memory, I really don't know."

  Li Ling reminded on the side: "There are very few chances of heavy snowfall in Jiang Province. That year was the heaviest snowfall in the past ten years."

   "Oh, I remembered. Your second uncle was digging a well in the next village. He was trapped in the neighboring village for several days because of the snow. He didn't take medicine for diabetes for several days, and his body almost couldn't support it."

   "Your sister." The old woman scratched her silver-white hair.

"She has never come back. If she does, I will definitely remember it. I remember that the heavy snow also crushed your house. Your second uncle asked someone to repair it. I said that you and Xiaochan will definitely come back, but you can't come back. If the family's house collapses, how can that be done..."

  The old man babbled on and on.

  Li Juan asked again without giving up: "Is my sister really never back? For example, with a pregnant woman who is about to give birth with a big belly?"

The old woman waved her hand: "That's definitely impossible, I live next door to your house, it's not good to say it, I can smell your fart, since your parents left, your house will never be the same again. No one has come back."

  Li Juan leaned against the wall and lowered her head weakly.

  The light in Bo Yuxun's eyes also dimmed a little bit.

  Li Ling thought for a while and said, "Let's go to Four Seasons Town."

  Bo Yuxun instantly understood what he meant. Siji Town was the only way to go back to Crock Pot Village. If they really came back that night, then Siji Town, as a transit station, would definitely be a stop for them.

   And there are many people in Siji Town, which makes it easier to find clues.

   declined the old lady's kindness to keep the meal, and the group rushed to Siji Town non-stop. On the way, Li Juan was stroking the old photo.

   It was almost two o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived in Siji Town. Li Ling suggested to find a restaurant to eat first.

   In such a large town that travels from south to north, the hotel is the best intelligence gathering station.

   At this time, there were a lot fewer people at the temple fair. After turning around, Bo Yuxun glanced at the sign opposite.

   "Just this one."

  Chen Wei went to park the car, and a few people got out of the car and walked into the store.

   We passed the restaurant early. The proprietress sat behind the counter and dozed off. The lucky cat at the door made a welcome baby sound, and the proprietress woke up with a jolt.

   As soon as he looked up, he saw two men and one woman, the woman didn't say anything, but the two men were more handsome and fancier than the other, especially the man in a black coat, just like the handsome man who came out on TV.

  The proprietress immediately stood up and greeted the three of them. There were only two tables of guests in the lobby. There were a few young people sitting at one table, drinking and punching.

   The proprietress frowned irritably, turned her head, and smiled again when facing the guests.

   "There is a private room upstairs, which is very quiet and has a good view."

  Li Ling nodded: "Let's go."

When    went upstairs, the proprietress pretended to be casual and asked, "Aren't you locals?"

  Li Ling smiled: "The proprietress is well-informed, can you guess where I am from?"

   The proprietress rolled her eyes and giggled.

   "Then I'm welcome. If I guess right, I'll take out the Maotai wine that my family treasures to cheer up Mr.

   "Mr. Yunzhou, right?"

  Li Ling raised his eyebrows and gave a thumbs up to the proprietress: "I have decided to drink this Moutai, I wonder how the proprietress could tell?"

   His Mandarin seems to have no local accent.

   The proprietress covered her mouth and laughed, and glanced at the man who was walking behind but couldn't hide his elegance: "Is this gentleman from Jingzhou?"

   Bo Yuxun, who was cued, was stunned for a moment and looked at the proprietress.

"how do you know?"

   "Housekeeping skills, it's no fun to tell you."

   opened the private room door, and at the end, Li Juan looked at the proprietress and said, "Madame, can you guess where I am from?"

  The proprietress glanced at her casually, but suddenly she frowned and stared at Li Juan's face carefully.

   She made a "Huh", and this "Huh" successfully attracted the attention of Bo Yuxun and Li Ling.

   The windows were wide open, and the opposite was Paektu Mountain surrounded by clouds and mist, and there was a buzzing voice from the temple fair downstairs.

   "Where have I seen you?" The proprietress scratched her head and said in confusion.

  Li Ling turned around suddenly, a pair of sharp eyes locked on the face of the proprietress.

  Bo Yuxun's reaction was also very fast. He took a deep breath and suddenly felt his heart beating so fast that it almost jumped out of his throat.
