Mystery Hunter

Jiang He heard someone sobbing in a low voice. When Jiang He looked back, he realized that the crying person was a female ghost who had just washed her face. Xiangmei has washed off the white powder on her face at this moment, revealing her original **** skin care.

Xiangmei finally regained her blood. Judging from her appearance, Xiangmei should be around 30 years old this year. According to the current public aesthetics, Jiang He believes that Xiangmei should be regarded as a beautiful woman.

Big eyes, long eyelashes, and a small face.

Xiangmei covered her mouth with one hand, trying her best not to make a sound. Tears fell one after another, flowing quietly on Xiangmei's face.

It was Xiangmei who was crying, after listening to the story of the Taoist priest.

Jiang He suddenly understood, she looked at Xiangmei and asked, "Are you one of the girls?"

Xiangmei wept silently, but nodded.

Taoist priest Gao walked to Xiangmei's side, hugged Xiangmei gently, and said to Jiang He, "That was a story from ten years ago, that girl's name is He Caiwei, and my surname is not Gao, my name is He Caijie. The two girls who were kidnapped ten years ago, one is my sister He Caiwei, and the other is my sister's best friend, Song Xiangmei."

"It's her." Jiang He looked at Song Xiangmei who was beside him.

He Caijie patted Song Xiangmei's shoulder with his hand, and at the same time he said to Jiang He, "That's right, it's her. It used to be a good summer vacation, it used to be a good day. But that day, my sister never came home again. Our two families have been looking for a full day, but there is no trace of the two of them."

"The next day, the two families called the police, but there was no clue. The police found a few onlookers at the time. Those people didn't even know that it was a human trafficking in broad daylight. They even insulted my sister, saying she An unfilial granddaughter."

"Actually? When my grandfather found out about this, he was so angry that he was hospitalized, and he passed away within a few days. My sister has been the jewel of the family since she was a child. My mother couldn't accept the fact that her sister was abducted and sold, and she became mentally ill. and is still being treated in a mental hospital.”

"My dad and I went out to search, and we never gave up looking for my sister's whereabouts. We went to every corner of the neighborhood, we went to village after village, year after year, but there was no clue. No. We spent all our savings and in just five short years, more places than I've been to in more than twenty years combined."

Jiang He listened to He Caijie's narration, and then He Caijie said, "Until five years ago, you came to the barren village and found Song Xiangmei?"

He Caijie's eyes were red when he heard Jiang He's words, he tried hard not to let the tears flow from his eyes: "Yes, this is a very accidental opportunity. Five years ago, my father gave up looking for my sister. The family’s savings are exhausted, and my mother also needs someone to take care of it. Do you know what a helpless move that is, you have seen a big man with a hunched back and gray hair in just five years. Does the whole person look like they are in their twenties?"

"But I absolutely can't forgive those traffickers, and I also can't forgive those who buy wives from traffickers." He Caijie's eyes were full of ferocity: "In the past five years, I have traveled too many places like deserted villages. In the village, at the beginning we hit a wall, you know, it is impossible for them to let an outsider know that the daughter-in-law in the village was bought."

"We don't have any clues at all." He Caijie said with a wry smile: "But later, I finally understood that sometimes it is necessary to use a little feudal superstition to treat ignorant people. If you talk about science, those people will use Looking at you like a fool, but if you bring your IQ down to their level, then everything will be easier."

Jiang He already understood what He Caijie meant: "I understand, so you pretend to be a Taoist monk who travels everywhere. Every time you go to a village, you use this method to cover your identity, but in fact, you are looking for Your own sister, right?"

"That's right!" He Caijie carried his Qiankun bag on his back at this time, he patted the Qiankun bag, it was bulging, and he didn't know what was inside.

He Caijie helped Song Xiangmei to sit on the bed, and said, "With such an identity, I will soon be able to know what happened in the village, and I will be able to mingle with those ignorant villagers. I never knew it before, the original A person can be so stupid or so hateful. Every time I go to a village, I will use puppets to pretend to be female ghosts, and lied that I came after the female ghost, and no villager doubted me. "

"Then things are much easier to handle. Once I find out that my sister is not in this village, I will leave and continue to look for the next village, until I came to the deserted village five years ago, and things started from that time. This village is very resistant to the arrival of outsiders, as if this village has some big secret. This is something I have never encountered in five years, and this is the most mysterious mountain village I have encountered. ."

"The five-year search experience has made me understand this kind of village very well, such as this kind of village in the deep mountains and old forests, especially the isolated villages with no other villages around, no woman would be willing to marry this place, and even if there are women in the village , and will definitely leave here. The only way for the bachelors in the village to marry their wives is to buy them from human traffickers. It’s just that this village is too exclusive. If I want to get along with these villagers, I need to stay here longer. "

He Caijie shook his head: "I stayed here for four years, and the time I stayed in even exceeded the time I spent in other villages combined. Sometimes I don't even know why I stayed here for so long. Time, maybe because of that dream of mine."

"Someone told me that if I stay here, I'll be able to find some clues. Until a year ago, I discovered Xiangmei. For four years, I occasionally helped the villagers to see doctors. As a medical student, this is the It's a very simple thing, but in fact, most diseases can be healed by themselves. I used superstition to tell them that this is a Taoist manifestation, and these people believe it. "

"In four years, I have traveled all over the village, I have seen deep pits and white bones, I have seen mass graves in corn fields, I have understood everything around the village, and I have known the secrets of most of the villages, but this The village is poorer and more sinful than the rest, and they always keep women locked up so tightly that I can't even see it at a glance."

Jiang He looked at Song Xiangmei, who was leaning on He Caijie's shoulder at the moment, looking serene and gentle.

Jiang He asked, "Then how did you meet her? Since they were locked up tightly, how did you rescue her?"

He Caijie shook his head: "To be precise, I didn't save her, but I found her. It was one night half a year ago. I was investigating the mass graves in the cornfield. I knew that the villagers had formal In the cemetery, they will not bury their own people in mass graves. And they will push tourists into deep pits to be eaten by vicious dogs, so the corpses of tourists will not be buried. The problem is Come on, who are the bones in the mass graves?"

"That night I suddenly realized that this mass grave is used to bury the dead women and the baby girls born by those women. For the villagers, women are their most valuable property, just like a TV set. They don't want the show to break."

"But there are still some women who died of childbirth or suicide, and the bodies of these people are thrown here. It was on that day that Song Xiangmei and He Caiwei escaped. But I didn't know at the time, if they were given more If I had a chance, when I heard the change, I would have chosen to rush over instead of hiding in the cornfield."

"While I was looking at the writing on the tombstones, I suddenly heard the sound of Xixisuoso coming from the cornfield. It was very loud, as if some beast was about to rush out of the cornfield. I didn't know that What is it, so I hid in the cornfield on the other side, using the cover of night to see what happened."

"As soon as I hid, I heard footsteps coming from the mass grave, and then the shouting and scolding of the villagers. I vaguely understood what was going on, probably two women were riding the guards. They escaped unprepared, and the villagers came out to arrest these two women."

Jiang He said, "These two people are He Caiwei and Song Xiangmei."

At this time, He Caijie was already in tears, and he said: "Yes, it's my sister and Xiangmei, but I was hiding in the cornfield at that time, it was too dark, I was squatting again, and I couldn't see clearly at all. What happened outside, let alone that my sister, who I have been looking for for almost ten years, if I could do it again, I would definitely choose to rush out."

"The footsteps are getting closer and closer, I thought for a long time, I understand that these two girls must have been kidnapped, but if I go out, the villagers will definitely not let me go. After hesitating for a long time, I still did not go out. I'm just hiding in the cornfield, a complete coward."

"Crescent Moon is He Caiwei, isn't it?" Jiang He felt that everything was connected: "So when the villagers called out the woman's name, you didn't realize that she was actually your sister!"

He Caijie endured his sadness and nodded: "Yes, Xinyue is the name that the villagers gave my sister, how do they know the story of Caiwei."

"And then?" Jiang He asked again.

"Still, let Xiangmei tell you." He Caijie couldn't continue.
