Chapter 453 Clues

A low-key black Audi sedan came to Siji Town quietly.

This is the only way to go to Crock Village.

It coincided with the last lively temple fair before the year, and the town was full of vendors and pedestrians.

The car was struggling to pass through the crowd, and the sound of beeping whistle caused dissatisfaction among pedestrians.

"Don't honk the horn." Li Ling told the driver.

The driver was one of his subordinates, a college student who had just graduated, named Chen Wei, who was assigned to his subordinates, and acted a little fraught.

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

Bo Yuxun lowered the car window halfway, and saw a sugar man who skillfully used tools to draw a lifelike sugar man on the template, surrounded by a group of laughing and noisy children, full of human fireworks everywhere.

Suddenly, Bo Yuxun's eyes froze.

"parking."

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

Before the car stopped, Bo Yuxun couldn't wait to open the door and walk out.

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

It was the appearance of a young girl, with her palms folded, her eyelids drooping slightly, her belt fluttering in the wind, and her skirt fluttering.

Looking at the girl's eyebrows and eyes, 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 master's craftsmanship is really vivid and lifelike, portraying the girl's demeanor vividly and vividly.

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

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

The master who made the sugar figurine was an uncle in his fifties, his temples were frost-white, and his wrinkles were full of traces of wind, frost and time.

He looked at the man in front of him in surprise, saw him staring at the sugar figurine in his hand in a daze, and said with a smile: "Mr. is from a big city, he has a good eye."

Bo Yuxun held the sugar figure's sticky stick and muttered, "Mingjing?"

Master Sugar Man was even happier, and said proudly: "It seems that our Master Ming Jing is very famous now, and my husband knows her too. She is a big celebrity in our local area, and everyone in ten miles and eight villages knows her."

Pointing to Mount Baitou in the distance: "Jiyue Nunnery 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 followers. Even if she is gone now, we will always remember her kindness."

When Bo Yuxun saw that a child was holding Mingjing's sugar figurine in his hand, he just smiled.

Seeing that the child was about to put the sugar figurine in his mouth, Bo Yuxun hurriedly called him to stop.

"etc."

Under the puzzled eyes of the other party, Bo Yuxun opened his wallet, and there were only some scattered foreign currency. After returning to China, the mobile phone payment is so convenient, he has 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 she had on her body, which totaled more than 800 yuan.

She is a black household, unable to get a bank card, and the only way of consumption is cash.

Bo Yuxun exchanged a hundred-yuan note for the sugar figurine in the child's hand.

The child hurriedly stuffed the sugar figurine to him, and ran away with the RMB as if he was afraid that the other party would repent.

"I have it too, I have it too..."

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

"Come one by one, there are all of them." After sending the group of children away, Bo Yuxun had a bunch of candy figurines in his hands, and only one ten-yuan banknote was left.

Li Juan's heart ached when she saw it, she really was a noble young master who had never seen the suffering in the world, what a prodigal...

Bo Yuxun looked at the sugar figurines on the props of the sugar figurine master. It seemed that Ding Jing was really popular in this small town. Her number of sugar figurines could compete with the child king Sun Wukong.

The sugar figure master smiled and brought out all the sugar figures of Ding Jing to him: "I can see that you like Master Ding Jing very much. You have such a vision, so I will give you these sugar figures for free. I hope that Master Ding Jing will I can keep you safe."

Here, in addition to worshiping the Bodhisattva during the Chinese New Year, they also worship Master Mingjing. Some homes even have a Mingjing Longevity card.

Bo Yuxun put the remaining few scattered 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.

"What a rich boss, it seems that our Master Mingjing is really attractive."

The sugar man master picked up the watch and looked at it again and again. He thought it was an ordinary watch, except that it was clean, so he put it on his wrist.

"I happen to be missing a watch, so I'm not going to be polite."

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

Six figures can't come down.

It belongs to the money that cannot be bought by money. In addition to being a member, the status of the buyer must also be considered, and the qualification to buy is only after the review.

And this Doctor Bo gave it away casually.

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

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

However, it can be seen from this that Der Spiegel must hold a special weight in the heart of Dr. Bo.

Bo Yuxun was admiring the bunch of sugar figurines in his hand, and under Li Ling's strange gaze, he wrapped them up carefully, for fear of breaking any of the corners.

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

Li Juan couldn't help sighing.

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

"That is Mount Paektu. Paektu Mountain 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 in Shiliba Village have a difficult and miscellaneous disease. It is more effective to find her than to find a doctor. I Never thought Miss Ming Jing was her disciple."

What kind of fate is this.

Bo Yuxun and Li Ling looked up at Mount Baitou at the same time.

After leaving the Four Seasons Town, I thought the road would be easy, but who knew that I walked for more than half an hour, all of which were dirt roads in the countryside, bumpy and dusty, completely backcountry.

Li Juan saw a big earthen jar by the side of the road and sat up excitedly.

"Here we are."

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

Li Juan found the end of the village, saw her house, couldn't help covering her mouth and crying.

The two dilapidated tile-roofed houses were crumbling, the courtyard walls and the wooden doors corroded by the wind were disastrous, and the courtyard was full of weeds, which grew taller than people, and there was a sense of desolation and dilapidation everywhere.

"Juanzi? Is it Juanzi?" An old woman with a vegetable basket at the door hunched over, 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 for a while, "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 all these years?"

The two hugged each other and wept bitterly, the nose of the person watching this picture was sore.

Li Ling walked around the house, broke through the rusty door lock and entered the main room and walked around. The house was full of rats, and the furniture and things were all weathered. It became a breeding ground for rats.

A family portrait hangs on the wall, brushing away the accumulated dust. In the photo, apart from a middle-aged couple with kind faces, there is a pair of twin sisters with braids. The two have exactly the same face. With delicate features, one is lively and the other is restrained and gentle.

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

A hot tear fell on the photo.

Li Juan knelt on the ground holding the photo, 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 was out of breath crying.

A clean handkerchief was delivered 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 patted her on the back lightly, giving her silent comfort and strength.

Li Juan wiped away her tears, took a deep breath, "Second Aunt, I want to ask you something."

Sensitively aware of her serious tone, the old woman subconsciously straightened her stooped back.

"What do you want to ask? Second Aunt will tell you everything she knows."

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

The old man's memory is not good, let alone thirteen years ago.

The old woman frowned, and seemed to be trying hard to remember.

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

Li Ling reminded from the side: "There are very few chances of heavy snowfall in Jiang Province, and 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. Because of the snow, he was trapped in the neighboring village for several days. He had diabetes and didn't take medicine for several days, and his body almost couldn't hold on."

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

"She hasn't come back. If she comes back, I will definitely remember it. I remember that the heavy snow collapsed your house, and your second uncle found someone to repair it. I said that you and Xiaochan will definitely come back, and you can't come back." The house at home has collapsed, so what can I do..."

The old man rambled on and on.

Li Juan did not give up and asked again: "Is it true that my sister has never come back? For example, she brought a pregnant woman with a big belly who is about to give birth?"

The old woman waved her hand: "That's definitely impossible. I live next door to your house. To put it bluntly, I can smell your fart. Since your parents left, your house has never No one has come back."

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

The light in Bo Yuxun's eyes dimmed little by little.

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

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

And there are many people in Siji Town, so it is easier to find clues.

Declining the old lady's kindness to keep a meal, they rushed to Siji Town non-stop, Li Juan was stroking the old photo all the way.

When we arrived in Siji Town, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon. Li Ling suggested to find a restaurant for dinner first.

In such a large town that travels from south to north, radiating to large villages and alleys with a radius of tens of miles, the restaurant 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 signboard opposite.

"Just this one."

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

After passing the restaurant early, the proprietress dozed off behind the counter, and the lucky cat at the door made a baby sound of welcome, and the proprietress woke up with a jolt.

When I looked up, I saw two men and one woman. I didn't say anything about the woman, but the two men were more handsome and stylish than the other, especially the man in the black coat, who looked like a handsome man walking out of the TV.

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

The proprietress frowned irritably, turned her head, and smiled openly at the guests.

"There are private rooms upstairs, very quiet, and the scenery is good."

Li Ling nodded: "Let's go."

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

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 not going to be polite. If I guess right, I'll take out the Moutai wine that I keep in my house to cheer for my husband."

"Mister is from Yunzhou, right?"

Li Ling raised his eyebrows, and gave a thumbs up to the proprietress: "I'm sure I'll drink this Moutai wine, I don't know how the proprietress can 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: "This gentleman is from Jingzhou?"

Bo Yuxun, who was caught by the cue, froze for a moment, and looked at the proprietress.

"how do you know?"

"It's no fun to tell you about housekeeping skills."

Opening the door of the private room, Li Juan, who was at the end, looked at the proprietress and said, "Madam proprietress, can you guess where I am from?"

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

She let out a "huh", and this "huh" successfully attracted the attention of Bo Yuxun and Li Ling.

The window was wide open, facing the cloud-covered Mt. Paektu, and the voices of people from the temple fair downstairs.

"I seem to have seen you somewhere before?" The proprietress scratched her head and said in confusion.

Li Ling turned around suddenly, a pair of sharp eyes fixed on the boss lady's face.

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