Chapter 210 The Disappeared Children 'Shantong' ([-]th Update)
The man stretched out his hand, Tong Li lowered his eyes, touched it lightly politely, and then took it back.
"Sorry for interrupting." The man expressed his apology.
Tong Li looked at the man who suddenly visited, and said calmly, "What's the matter?"
"Master Tong, why not talk inside."
Tong Li nodded and took him into the office, and Xiao Lingling then cut a pot of tea.
A glass was poured for the two, but no one touched it.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
The man didn't explain why he came, but took out a wooden box from his body and pushed it to Tong Li.
He smiled and said, "Master Tong, please accept this as a meeting gift."
Tong Li didn't even look at it and bluntly refused: "You don't get rewarded for nothing, sir, if you have something to say, just say it."
The man's smile remained unchanged: "Master Tong, you might as well open it and have a look first, then it's okay to refuse."
"..." Tong Li lowered her eyes and looked at the small long box. Just looking at this small box is worth a lot, and the things inside must be of high value.
But what does the most expensive thing have to do with her?
The man saw that Tong Li didn't move, and there was no trace of greed in his eyes. He knew that she really disdained this gift, so he picked it up and opened it himself.
As soon as the box was opened, a fresh and sweet smell filled the whole office.
Tong Li's eyes lit up, she didn't need to look, she knew what it was just by smelling it.
This is the buddha fruit she has been looking for.
Buddha's Epiphyllum fruit, the growth conditions are extremely harsh, it blooms for a hundred years, bears fruit for a hundred years, and a tree only bears one fruit, and it has to face hundreds of years of wind and rain, and various potential threats in the mountains. Very rare.
Fortunately, the mature Buddha's Tan fruit will emit a very unique smell, which can drive away all birds and insects, thus protecting its own fruit.
At her time, although this kind of fruit existed, it was relatively rare, because there were really very few buddha trees that survived smoothly.
Didn't expect it to be here.
This man gave her such a rare buddha tree fruit?
For what purpose?
"So this gentleman, if you have anything to say, you might as well speak up."
Although she likes things, things are often equivalent to species. Since he can produce such precious things, his things will not be small.
The man closed the lid, pushed it in front of Tong Li, and began to introduce himself politely: "My name is Si Erfeng, and I came from U City because of my reputation."
"Of course, we have also done relevant investigations and know that Master Tong is a master with real talents and practical learning. I came here this time to entrust Master to help us find a child."
Tong Li raised her eyebrows, looking at this elegant man.
"Looking for a child?"
"You should go to the police to find a child? What do you want me to do?"
Si Erfeng shook his head, suppressed his smile, and said seriously: "Our lost child cannot be found by the police."
Tong Li: "What do you mean?"
Si Erfeng continued: "To tell the truth, Master Tong, our place belongs to a county called Taihua County. There is a Taihua Mountain in Taihua County. There is a legend about Taihua Mountain from generation to generation."
"Every 100 years, the mountain boy of Taihua Mountain will go down the mountain and take away a group of children. According to legend, this is a contract signed by the ancestors and the mountain boy."
"We didn't believe it at first, but just three months ago, children in our county town disappeared for no reason."
"We have reported to the police, and organized our own people to search for it, but we almost didn't dig the ground of Taihua City."
"As of today, not to mention people, I can't even find a piece of clothing."
"We have reason to believe that our child was taken away by Shantong."
Otherwise, I really can't explain where so many children went in such a short period of time.
What's more, as the technology is so advanced now, if it is man-made, it is impossible to come and go without a trace, and some traces will always be left behind.
But nothing at all.
"So I would like to implore Master Tong to follow me to Taihua City. If Master Tong helps us find the child, the people of Taihua City will be very grateful."
Tong Li: "Shan Tong?"
"Well, I heard people from the older generation say that during the war, the villagers had a miserable life. They were lucky enough to meet Shantong, so they signed a contract with Shantong."
"Shantong makes the people of Taihua City have good weather and good life, and in exchange, they must hand over 100 children every 20 years."
"However, I heard that it was not handed in 100 years ago. Everyone thought that the contract was terminated, and they didn't care about it. After all, 100 years is too long, and it was basically forgotten in our generation."
"If it weren't for the disappearance of so many children this time, we wouldn't have brought this matter up."
Si Erfeng's eyes were sincere and earnest: "So, Master Tong, can you please come with us?"
"Of course we won't treat you badly. You can tell me a price, and we will deliver it truthfully. There is no difference."
Tong Li glanced at the long box.
This matter is difficult to say, easy to say, the key is that he has the Buddha's Epiphyllum Fruit.
That's the one she has to take.
"Row."
Si Erfeng immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he had made enough preparations and found out about Tong Li's affairs. He also knew that she was looking for several rare medicinal materials. He didn't have the others, but he had Buddha's Epiphyllum.
Although it would be a bit painful to take it out, there is no way. If this contract is not terminated, the people in Taihua City will not be at peace.
It is worthwhile to use a Buddha's Epiphyllum Fruit to exchange for the peace of the descendants.
Si Erfeng asked while the iron was hot: "Then I don't know when Master Tong will leave, I can make arrangements here."
Tong Li pondered for a while: "I'll give you the answer tomorrow."
Si Erfeng nodded, it was only one night, he was not in a hurry, he could afford to wait.
"it is good."
Si Erfeng's iconic smile hung on his face again, and he asked politely and politely: "Is Master Tong busy at noon?"
Tong Li: "What are you doing?"
"It's nothing, I want to treat the master to a meal."
Tong Li said bluntly, "No time."
"That night?"
"Not available either."
Tong Li refused one after another, making the smile on Si Erfeng's face almost unbearable.
"Okay then, when Master Tiantong is free, it's the same for us to have another banquet."
Tong Li didn't answer.
Seeing that the matter was almost finished, Si Erfeng got up to leave.
After Si Erfeng left, Tong Li took out her mobile phone, thinking about how to mention this matter to Pei Jiuyin.
This man has a lot of things recently, so he has to intervene in whatever she does, and take care of everything.
It made her feel very irritable.
When there was no man before, she could go wherever she wanted without worrying about anyone's emotions.
But now, with the fetters, it is not convenient to go anywhere.
Tong Li looked at the phone, then at the necklace on his wrist, maybe give him something, and treat him to a meal, talk about it.
But what to give?She has never given gifts to people in a serious manner, and suddenly she wants to give gifts to people, what should be more suitable?
Tong Li was stumped by the world's major problems.
Grapefruit's words are unreliable.
