Chapter 128 Hong Hong


Chapter 128 Honghong

As soon as these words came out, even Zhou Rong, who always showed a positive and reliable image to others, couldn't help being shocked. After a long while, he said awkwardly: "Mr. Yin is still so humorous."
< br>Jiangcheng He pinched his waist and said carelessly: "I just don't understand how Village Chief Qian dares to leave such a secret matter to a stranger. Isn't he afraid of problems?"

His words speak volumes for everyone. Opened up new ideas.

In the past, everyone’s issues focused on Zhao Xiangmei’s identity, but this Yin Zhiping took a different approach and suspected the relationship between Village Chief Qian and Zhao Xiangmei.

There was sudden silence in the room.

Indeed, abducting a woman is a serious crime subject to shooting. How could they trust a foreigner?

Li Lu endured the severe pain in her leg and said, "Could it be that Zhao Xiangmei's husband is from Xiaoshijian Village? So she is half a villager."

"Yes. This is a possibility," Zhou Rong said after thinking about it.

The people who can stand here are not newcomers. They have already felt that the difficulty of this mission is different from what they have experienced before. Day and night have passed. Apart from paying one life, the plot has not made substantial progress. .

This can't go on

Jiang Cheng squinted at the window, turned around and said: "It's not dark yet, I think we can be divided into two groups, one group will stay here to wait for the food to be delivered, and the other group will go Walk around the village."

"Is it too dangerous?" Jiang Zhongyi swallowed and asked softly.

His worries are not unreasonable. The sky in the mountains is not as dark as outside. It is always dark. If he does not come back before dark, there is no telling what will happen.

Pei Qian nodded, as if after careful consideration, "Then I'll leave it to Mr. Yin." He raised his head and looked at Jiang Cheng with great concern, "You don't have to worry here, I'll stay and deal with them. .”

"Tsk," Jiang Cheng looked at Pei Gan up and down with great interest. This sanctimonious old guy was comparable to Zhen Jianren in the previous book, but even more shameless.

"Mr. Pei, please be careful," Jiang Cheng responded to him with the same concerned eyes.

After determining the course of action, the next step is to group them.

Li Lu had an injury on her leg and had no choice but to stay. Yu Man seemed not to be optimistic about her plan to go to the village and said she wanted to stay.

Including Pei Qian, there are already three people left.

"I'll go out and take a look," Zhou Rong nodded to Jiang Cheng and then announced.

To everyone’s surprise, Chen Xiaomeng also chose to go for a walk in the village.

In this way, there are three people who are sure to stay and three people who are going out.

The only person who could breathe was Jiang Zhongyi who did not express his position.

Normally speaking, there are more people who go out to look for clues than those who stay to guard the house. Although Jiang Zhongyi also wanted to stay, he was soft-spoken, and in the end he wisely kept his mouth shut.

"I will accompany you too."

Jiang Zhongyi had a bitter look on his face, and it was clear from his expression that he was very reluctant.

But what surprised him was

“You don’t need to.”

After Jiang Cheng finished speaking, he didn’t look at him and just talked to Chen Xiaomeng and Zhou Rong. People left.

Jiang Zhongyi was very excited, but he didn't want to show it too obviously, and his face turned red.

The only thing that made him uncomfortable was the look in Chen Xiaomeng's eyes when she passed by him. Her eyes were cold and weird, as if she was looking at a corpse.

Jiang Zhongyi himself was frightened by his thoughts. He shook his head hastily. When he looked up again, several people had already walked away.

The setting sun hangs slanting on the top of the mountain. I walk slowly along the path in the village, and there are smoke from cooking in the distance from time to time.

It seems that even though something like this happened, some people still chose to stay.

This is the so-called hard-to-leave country.

The bluestone slabs on the left and right under the feet seem to be two separate worlds. The door on one side is closed, or the window frame is broken, and it has been abandoned.

On the other side, although it is dilapidated, several vegetable patches still show that there are still people living here.

Poverty is the main theme here, and there is a large lack of labor. For such a village that relies on fishing and hunting to survive, it is undoubtedly a disaster.

The terrain in the mountains is rugged and not suitable for large-scale food cultivation.

Chen Xiaomeng seemed to see what Jiang Cheng was thinking. While looking at a few vegetable beds, she sneered: "Even if the people in the village can rely on reclaiming land to support themselves, can Zhao Xiangmei let them go?"

Return to it? The reason is that Zhao Xiangmei is the calamity that the villagers cannot avoid.

The footsteps of several people were tapping, as if they were walking around completely aimlessly. Jiang Cheng looked left and right. Zhou Rong originally wanted to find a chance to be alone with Jiang Cheng, but he didn’t expect Chen Xiaomeng. Also followed out.

“Who is it?” Zhou Rong asked alertly.

Looking along Zhou Rong's line of sight, a small head appeared behind the fence of the yard not far away.

It was a girl, about 6 or 7 years old, wearing light blue coarse cloth, with a pair of big innocent eyes, looking at them curiously.

She probably thought that she was hiding well and would not be discovered, so she acted very panicked after Zhou Rong found her.

She jumped down from the half-stepped fence, turned around, and was about to run home.

But suddenly, she stopped and stared at Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng looked at her with a smile, stretched out his palm, and there was a crumpled bun in his palm.

The girl's throat couldn't help but roll up and down.

The next thing was much simpler. Jiang Cheng successfully lured the little girl out with a steamed bun, and they chose a shady place to sit down.

"What's your name?" Chen Xiaomeng tilted her head and asked.

"Honghong."

The girl ate the steamed buns with big mouthfuls. The steamed buns were not too small, but she was stunned to let her take a few bites and ate most of them. In the end, she choked a little.

As they got closer, everyone found that the girl was thinner than she looked, and her complexion was also an unhealthy sallow color.

"You live in that courtyard?"

"Yes," the girl nodded, sticking out her little tongue and licking the steamed bun residue in her hand very seriously.

The yard she was talking about was the one with the vegetable patch in front of the door.

"Who are the people in your family?" Zhou Rong interrupted and asked.

The girl licked her lips, feeling a little unfinished. After a period of contact, she became bolder.

She glanced at Jiang Cheng, who was also holding a steamed bun and biting it, swallowed, stretched out her hand and said, "Give me the steamed bun in your hand, and I will tell you."

After taking the half steamed bun handed over by Jiang Cheng, the girl's eyes were shining happily. She kept swallowing, but she seemed to have thought of something and held back.

Finally, he carefully stuffed half of the steamed bun into his pocket.

"There is no one else in my family," the girl lowered her head, "only Honghong is left."

She stared at her toes as she spoke, looking very pitiful, but her big eyes twitched in her sockets from time to time. Just when she felt that her acting skills were enough to get through, she tightened her neck and lifted her feet off the ground.

Jiang Cheng held the girl up in the air as if holding a little chicken.

Then he reached out and took out the half steamed bun from the girl's pocket and stuffed it back into his clothes.

"Then I won't spoil you anymore," Jiang Cheng said, "I'm not your father." (End of Chapter)
