Chapter 276 The Dangerous Songmen Village
He is a little old man.
He walked slowly and walked in front of them step by step, nodding slightly: "Is this Miss Lan?"
Nodding to Xuan: "It's me, this is my friend "Kamo."
"Hello, Mr. Kamo," the little old man called politely.
"Hello."
"Then let's invite you in." The little old man led them into the village. There were not many villagers around, they were in twos and threes, and even the clothes they wore were more ethnic.
Their eyes were very friendly, and they were full of curiosity about Xiang Xuan and Teacher Kamo.
After all, their place is too remote, and very few new people can come in.
The little old man led them to an ancient house called Qingming Building. As soon as they entered the house, they saw an open-air courtyard with three large water tanks in the middle.
If it's summer, you should be able to see lotus flowers blooming on it.
Now, the surface of the water tank is covered with a layer of ice.
Going around the courtyard is the hall.
On the wall of the main hall hangs a lifelike pair of men wearing official uniforms of the late Qing Dynasty.
Sitting in the main seat was an elderly lady, dressed plainly and elegantly. The piece of Buddha jade around her neck was particularly conspicuous.
The little old man bowed to the old lady and reported: "Old lady, Miss Lan is here."
The old lady was reciting Buddhist scriptures and turning the beads in her hand constantly.
When the little old man finished speaking, her hands stopped turning and what she was saying stopped. Slowly opening her eyes, the old lady glanced at Xiang Xuan, "Are you Lan Xi?"
"It's me." Xiang Xuan nodded.
The old lady raised her hand, and the little old man understood and stepped forward to support her.
She walked slowly in front of Xiang Xuan, raised her right hand holding the beads, and wanted to touch Xiang Xuan's face. She said, "You look familiar, Miss Lan." There was obvious hesitation and surprise in her tone. .
Xiang Xuan frowned slightly, "It's more of a popular face."
"No, your eyes are very special." The old lady turned around and said slowly, "She looks a lot like me. An old friend who has been dead for decades.”
Xiang Xuan was calm and did not respond.
The old lady sat down again, "You have come all the way here, haven't you eaten yet?"
"No." Xiang Xuan replied.
"Then let's eat first. If you're tired of working, how can you have the strength to talk if you're not full?" The old lady waved her hand, "Go and order the kitchen to cook."
"Yes. ." The little old man retreated.
The old lady told them to sit down, so Xiang Xuan and Teacher Kamo took their seats one after another. The old lady did not talk about musical instruments, but instead talked about her past, saying that Songmen Village was all of the Ouyang family. During the turmoil, the Ouyang family came to this place to take root, to avoid those sufferings and live here. It's almost a century old.
If it weren’t for the younger generations who came out of here, perhaps the outside world would still not know where Songmen Village is.
The old lady also said that many media reporters have visited here, wanting to promote Songmen Village and turning it into a tourist attraction. But they were all sent away by the old lady, which kept this place in peace.
The old lady spoke very slowly, Xiang Xuan listened, and Teacher Kamo would respond with a few words from time to time.
Until you can have a meal.

Huo Yanzhou listened to Chen Jin and the others with a cold face while looking at his phone. It had been nearly thirty hours, and Xiang Xuan had not even replied to a message.
Chen Jin felt that Master Ninth was listening feebly, winked at the people next to him, and gradually stopped talking.
He stepped forward and asked: "Ninth Young Master, why don't you take a rest today."
Huo Yanzhou put down the phone and raised his eyebrows, with a gloomy look on his face, "Everyone, get out, you Stay."
Chen Jin nodded, and after everyone else went out, he took the initiative to say: "Master Ninth, the traces of the young mistress have been found."
"Yes." "The young lady went to a place called Songmen Village. That village was only known five or six years ago, and it contained the Ouyang lineage. Especially Ouyang's old head, Mrs. Ouyang , her ancestors collected ancient musical instruments. The young lady and Teacher Kamo went there, probably looking for ancient musical instruments with the old lady Ouyang.”
Huo Yanzhou asked: "Is it far from here?"
"If everything goes well, it will take eight or nine hours to drive." Chen Jin's face gradually became serious, "But Ninth Master, I still want to investigate Songmen Village was not very peaceful at this time."
Hearing this, Huo Yanzhou raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean?"
"Some time ago. Dead people appeared in Jiansongmen Village, and the dead were young people who were called back to the village to celebrate the New Year. However, this matter has always been concealed. It was a junior from the Ouyang family who secretly left the village. Call the police. When the police came to the village to investigate, they were told that he died of illness, so there is no clue as to what caused it.”
After hearing this, Huo Yanzhou's expression suddenly changed, and an uneasy mood enveloped his whole person.
"Prepare the car and go to Songmen Village."
Huo Yanzhou got up and was about to go out, but Yuan Yuan called at this time.
He chose to refuse impatiently.
However, Yuan Yuan fought back without mercy.
After walking into the elevator, Huo Yanzhou answered the call. Yuan Yuan's crying soon came on the phone.
"Yan Zhou, just now I received a call from a stranger. He said that he said that my brother is not dead." Yuan Yuan spoke urgently, "He also said that he wanted me to see my brother. If you want me to go to Nanshan now, can you let me go there and take a look?”
Huo Yanzhou's dark eyes suddenly sank, "Send me the number."
"I think what he said is trustworthy, because he told a lot about my brother's characteristics."
" I will investigate if it is true and send me the number," Huo Yanzhou ordered.
"I sent it to you, but can you let me go out and have a look?"
"Stay inside."
Huo Yanzhou hung up the phone and waited for Yuan Yuan to send the message. Instruct Chen Jin to investigate Yuan Yuan's cell phone call records.
When he got into the car, he had already sent the phone number from Yuan Yuan to Duan Fei.
Duan Fei's call came quickly: "Brother Ninth, this is not a computer-generated number, and it belongs to the Imperial Capital, and the last place it appeared is Nanshan."
Huo Yanzhou narrowed his eyes slightly.
Duan Fei asked: "Brother Ninth, what's going on with this number?"
Huo Yanzhou ordered: "Go to Nanshan now and have a look. The owner of this number said that Yuan Ao is not dead. ."
"How is that possible?" Duan Fei immediately denied.
“Go and see.”
"Okay."
Huo Yanzhou had no intention of going to Yuan Yuan, he still wanted to go to Songmen Village first.
On the way, the housekeeper from the small foreign building called and said that Yuan Yuan secretly drove out.
At the same time, Chen Jin investigated and found that Yuan Yuan and the owner of this phone had been in contact in the past three days.
Finally, he told the driver: "Go to Nanshan first." Then he informed An Tai and the others to set off for Songmen Village first, but they couldn't alert the enemy until he got there.
On the way to Nanshan, Yuan Yuan called again.
"Yanzhou, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to act without permission. If my brother is really not dead, then I won't be alone. You can definitely understand my feelings, right?"
Huo Yanzhou raised his eyebrows: "Then you have to understand that if there is any problem with your body, I have no obligation to save you again."
