"Wait a minute, why do you take us back?" Mung Bean Eyed Yuanfeng said. 【 】

"Hmph, just because you three are here to confuse people, fool villagers, and defraud money, I can take you back! Stop talking, go!" Liao Mu roared ferociously.

When Mung Douyan heard this, she was anxious and wanted to go crazy with her small eyes, but was stopped by Yuan Ding.

"Officer, as the saying goes, if you want to add a crime, why don't you have nothing to say? We haven't done anything shameful, so why not go with you? We don't steal, and we don't rob, so what is there to worry about? I'm afraid, two people died at once, and this is directly related to your plan to catch snakes tonight. If you command properly, how can such a tragedy happen? So, you are the one who is not easy to deal with!" Said playing, striding forward The six armed policemen headed towards the village.

Hearing this, Liao Mu frowned even tighter!

At this time, the sky is already slightly bright.Inside the village committee of Fenghua Village, a bunch of people were crowded again.These are basically the people who came back from the horror field by the deep pool last night.Among them were a dozen or so villagers who had been watching by the deep pool, including Alan and Liu Mei.They kept talking about the thrilling scene last night.

The three Yuan Ding brothers were detained in the accounting room, waiting for Liao Mu's questioning.

Pan and Chen are two professors.Village head Wang, Du Tianyao, principal Lang, and Liao Mu stayed in the office of the village committee, standing and sitting.

"Huh? Unexpectedly, this matter will turn out like this. I think it should be dealt with quickly. It's okay to say that Lao Mai's death, after all, it was an accident. How can Da Mu say that he is a foreign guest and an expert? How can you say no?" Is it gone? What can I do?" Liao Mu said angrily.

"Director Liao, what do you plan to do with it?" Lang Mo asked.

"How else can we deal with it? Report the situation to the higher authorities according to the facts, and wait for someone to come down to investigate. At present, I think the only way to do this is at present. After all, a foreign master who can catch boa constrictor died here." Speaking of this, think about Damn Liao Mu shook his head and smiled wryly at the pitiful appearance when he was swallowed by the snake.

"However, Director, this Dam was swallowed by a big snake and taken away. No one was seen when he was alive, and no corpse was seen when he died. He evaporated like water vapor. If you say that a person was swallowed by a snake, someone has to believe it." So? How to explain this?" Du Tianyao was also worried.

"Didn't many people see this with their own eyes? Isn't this proof?" Lang Mo asked.

"But he is a gringo, and you say that he was taken into the stomach by a snake, but he didn't see it. You have to produce evidence to convince him." Du Tianyao objected.

"Then tell me, what should we do?" Village Chief Wang spread his arms and sighed helplessly.

At this time, Professor Pan, who had been whispering to Professor Chen, saw everyone arguing about the master snake catcher, so he quickly stood up and came to everyone and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, Damu's death will be counted." Nothing serious. Don't worry."

"Don't worry? I'm going to climb the beam in a hurry. Don't you need to worry?" Now, it was Liao Mu's turn to scream.

"Look, what is this?" Professor Pan took out a note from his coat pocket.

Liao Mu accepted it suspiciously. The note was not big, about the size of a primary school student's homework book, and it was filled with words.He lowered his head and took a closer look, and his frown suddenly relaxed a lot.He smiled and said, "Professor Pan, it's really you. When did you let this hapless master snake catcher write down such a piece of evidence? It's absolutely impossible! By the way, I understand the first half of the paper. , What I mean is, if this Dum is swallowed by a snake, it is purely at his own risk, and if something happens, he will be responsible for all the consequences, but the second half of the page is crooked, what is written on it?"

Professor Pan still said kindly: "It's not that I'm bad enough, it's that he insisted on clamoring to catch snakes. That's what I thought of. So, before I left, I asked him to write down this Self-certification. What I’m afraid of is that if something bad happens, it involves diplomatic matters, so I have to be more cautious. Alas, now it seems that this paper is really Master Dam’s last suicide note. What a pity! As for what you said The meaning of the second half of the paper is the same, but he has re-copied it in Malay, so that it can be further proved that the proof materials are written by himself, and this paper was given to him. People will believe in the country. How about it, if I explain it this way, do you feel more at ease in your heart?"

Liao Mu was stunned for a while, then laughed and said, "You old fox! You are so cunning!"

His words made everyone in the room couldn't help laughing.

"So, Director Liao, you don't have to worry about Dam's matter. Since there are so many witnesses and solid physical evidence in front of you, what are you worried about? Don't worry, it's all on me, and I won't give it to you. What trouble is there. What you have to do now is, as long as you properly handle the problem of the old village head Mai, the big things will be reduced, and the small things will be resolved, right? Ah, sorry, I've said too much, I'm sorry, I think Director Liao must have thought about how to deal with Mr. Mai's matter, I'm talking too much. Hahaha..." Professor Pan laughed.

The matter of Master Snake Catching is basically settled, and the next thing is Lao Mai's death, how to solve it.Although Professor Pan and Damm ignored him for the time being, Liao Mu was in a good mood, but after all, he was killed, and he still had a sullen face, thinking about how to report to his superiors.After all, this person is dead under his nose.

"Director Liao, Professor Chen and I have been watching the whole incident by the mountain pass last night. It can be said that you are not very responsible. If you want to blame, you must blame the three Taoist priests. If they didn't mess around If you get angry, things won't go to the point where they are today. Don't you think so?" Professor Pan saw that Liao Mu was frowning constantly.He said so again.

"Yes, if it weren't for these three bastards, how could Dam and Old Mai die?" Liao Mu roared angrily. "So, I'm going to take them back properly, find out their origins, and then..." He couldn't continue when he said this.

"Then, what's the matter? It's not easy to deal with, is it?" Professor Pan interjected.

"Yes, Director Liao, these Taoist priests are in our country. They have a business license, and Taoist temples are everywhere. They haven't broken the law. If you say they defrauded money, it's Lao Mai who is willing to waste money and is willing to ask people to come back. Although this old wheat was swallowed by a snake, it was not the three of them who swallowed people into their stomachs. This was purely an accident. If they were to be punished, at most they would be punished by violating the security management treaty, and at worst they would be detained It will be fine after a few days. So, this is really difficult." Lang Mo interjected.

"Principal Wolf is very reasonable. You really have no way to convict those three Taoist priests at the moment. The most you can do is engage in superstitious activities and pollute the air, but this does not constitute a crime, let alone violate the criminal law." Du Tian Ironing at the pan supports this wolf principal.

"Maybe Director Liao has his own ideas. Maybe he thinks the three Taoist priests are really guilty. I think you should let Director Liao think about it carefully and don't interrupt their thinking." Professor Chen objected.

"Yes, I think Director Liao must have thought of a good idea when he brought the three of them back, so let's not talk about it, right? But Lao Pan is very curious and wants to ask, Director Liao, are you going to bring the three of them back?" How do they convict?" Professor Pan still said with a smile.

"I, I haven't thought of anything yet?" Liao Mu admitted honestly. "I just wanted to bring them back. As for how to interrogate and convict, I didn't think about it at all, and it was hard to think about it. However, from Professor Pan's sly smile, it seems that you have some ideas. Don't be stingy." ,tell me the story?"

"Hahaha, Director Liao, you are a little interesting, a little interesting. The so-called authorities are obsessed, but bystanders are clear. Actually, I don't have any ideas. What I know is that the person who unties the bell needs the person who tied the bell. Didn't they say that it wasn't last night. Did the Snake Fairy come out to swallow people? You should ask people if this is the case. After all, many people heard about it yesterday afternoon. If it is true that the Snake Fairy swallowed people, what do you have to think about? That is not something a mortal can handle. Got it. You have to rely on a more powerful god to subdue it, right? Second, if you just bring them back to the institute for questioning, I'm afraid you will not only get no good results, but you will also make those who believe in snakes Offending the villagers of Xian, such a thankless thing, I believe Director Liao is smart, he shouldn't do it like this, right?"

"Old fox, you are really an old fox." Liao Mu said the same thing again.His words made everyone laugh again.

"Village Chief Wang, I have to trouble you to talk about Lao Mai's family. As for the Taoist priests in the next room, let's go and see them now to see how they treat Lao Mai's death. statement."

Opening the door of the office, more people gathered outside the house. It seemed that these villagers had already heard the news, and they all came to watch the excitement early in the morning.

"Captain Du, please go and lead the three Taoist priests from the financial office to the meeting room." Liao Mu ordered.

Seeing Yuan Ding and the others being brought into the meeting room, outside the door, those watching villagers also swarmed in.Surrounded by Liao Mu and Yuan Ding, they were very curious and wanted to see how the policeman interrogated the prisoner.

"Yuan Ding, are you guilty!" Liao Mu asked with a straight face.

"What's wrong with me?" Yuan Ding answered with his head held high.

"Old Village Chief Mai was killed by you, and you still say you are innocent! You are spreading rumors here, saying that the snake fairy will not swallow the people who admire it, but why, the snake fairy in your mouth will swallow it!" Old Mai?"

"I'm sorry, after we communicated with the snake fairy last night, the snake fairy said that Lao Mai didn't bow down to him sincerely. His main purpose was to establish a good image of himself, so that he could recommend his son to be a villager. Chief, he wants to drive out the current village chief. That's why the old village chief was swallowed by the snake fairy! Besides, the other person who was swallowed last night insulted the snake fairy in every possible way. This is what you will see with your own eyes, so what we said yesterday is not wrong at all, as long as you offend the Snake Immortal, you will never end well!"

Yuan Ding's words aroused a murmur of discussion among the villagers.

"You are sophistry! Ordinary magic sticks can say that round is flat and black is white. This is absolutely shameless sophistry!" Liao Mu said angrily.

"Hmph, police officer, we are not magic sticks, we are Taoists who worship the Supreme Lord! Please don't smear our faces casually! If you say we are sophistry, then please show us the evidence! If There is evidence, the three of us are willing to plead guilty, if you don’t have evidence, please don’t make any conclusions!”

Liao Mu seemed to have nothing to say.

At this time, some of the villagers who watched the excitement began to say: "Director Liao, the Taoist is right. It is indeed the snake fairy who swallowed the old wheat. Who told him to have evil intentions? He is so old." , I still think about these crooked ideas.He deserves it. "

"Yes, yes, yes... this old Mai is really damned, damned..." There was a lot of discussion, and no one sympathized with Lao Mai. It seems that Lao Mai's popularity in the village is really not very good.

After everyone's discussion stopped, after a while, Liao Mu rubbed his red nose, he seemed a little undecided.

"Director Liao, I think so. Since this is an accident, I think the three people in front of me have some responsibilities, but the responsibilities are very small. You see...this matter should..." Du Tianyao asked from the side road.

Director Liao didn't speak, but looked at the dozens of villagers who were watching.

"Let these three Taoists go. We think that Lao Mai and the other person who was eaten by the snake fairy are damned. The three Taoists are not responsible. Let them go!" a villager said. began to speak.This voice came out, not to mention, there were quite a lot of words that called Liao Mu to release people.Creaking and creaking, there was a sound.

Finally, Liao Mu rubbed his nose helplessly again and said: "Listen up, you three, what the folks say has some truths, and I won't make it difficult for you now. In this way, report your detailed contact information, address, etc. After tomorrow, we will draw conclusions. Yuan Ding, start with you..."

"I'm sorry, officer. We are monks and travel around. We don't have any fixed address, and we don't have any contact information. But we assure you that we will not leave Fenghua Village until the matter is clarified. We will be there. Shankou preached the Taoism, one is to save the souls of the old village chief and another person who was swallowed by the snake fairy, and beg the snake fairy not to send their souls to the eighteenth level of hell. The second is to bring some Tianfu, I hope that the weather here will be smooth and the villagers will be safe. I, Yuan Ding, will do what I say, and the three of us will never leave casually!" Yuan Ding said loudly.

Yuan Ding's words attracted more voices demanding his release.

"Okay, you can leave! But, remember what you said! Before the matter is clear, you must never leave Fenghua Village, otherwise you will be charged with absconding!" Liao Mu also released his words.

"That's natural! Monks don't tell lies! Farewell." After Yuan Ding finished speaking, he led his two juniors, pushed aside the crowd, and walked away.

"Brother, did that guy just let us go like this?" Mung Douyan asked as soon as he left the door

"You idiot! Don't you realize that guy is shirking responsibility? Use your brain!" Yuan Ding cursed in a low voice.

"But we don't have any responsibility?" Mung Bean Eye asked like an idiot.

"Hey, junior brother, junior brother, teach third junior brother to tell you!"

"Second senior brother, this is already very clear..." Under the narration of the big-faced Taoist priest, the three of them gradually moved away.

The departure of Yuan Ding and the others represented the end of the interrogation.The villagers also muttered in low voices, and slowly dispersed.Professor Pan, Professor Chen, Du Tianyao and the six armed policemen also left after talking to Liao Mu and others.

Before leaving, Professor Chen took Lang Mo's hand and said, "Principal Wolf, if the boa constrictor appears again, please notify me as soon as possible. Just now, Captain Du said that last night, he was absolutely sure that his first One shot hit the big boa constrictor's head. He had never seen a boa constrictor with such a powerful sniper rifle that couldn't kill it. He was shot several times, but he seemed to be fine. Besides, in its mouth In the case of a person, I risked a submachine gun to sweep it. Even in this situation, it can run. So, to be honest, I am very, very yearning for that living fossil that is rare in a thousand years! Originally I want to stay, stay here, and see if I can find it. Unfortunately, I am busy with work during this time, so I can’t stay. But I really want to study what’s so special about that ancient python, so , please tell me any information about it in time."

"Okay. No problem, it's all trivial. By the way, Professor Chen, why don't you stay a few more days? Maybe the python will come out again. And you don't have to wait."

"Impossible. Professor Pan said that the boa constrictor will not easily show up again after being frightened and harassed like this. Besides, its injuries must be serious. Therefore, it will not be a year or a half. won't show up anymore"

"Then what if the python doesn't come out?"

"Well, if there is really no news about him, maybe after I finish my work, I will go to the mountains with my students to find him next summer!"

Principal Wolf was stunned after hearing this.

"Director Liao, this person has left, why did you just stay?" Principal Wolf asked.

In Village Chief Wang's office, only Liao Mu, Lang Mo, and Village Chief Wang were left. "They all have their own affairs, so of course they have to go back in a hurry. I'm an idler. I'm fine. I just want to stay in Fenghua Village for a few more days. How about having a drink with you, how about a face?" Liao Mu replied like this.

"Face, of course!" Principal Wolf replied with a smile.

However, after Village Chief Wang went home to sleep, Principal Lang suddenly changed his face and asked, "Mu, you admit it honestly, why are you so interested in those three Taoist priests?"

After listening to it, Director Liao asked, "What do you mean, I don't understand?"

"Don't pretend to be like this! I know that although we haven't known each other for a long time, I know a little bit about your temper. With your character, you won't treat the three Taoist priests like this casually, that is, rashly. Arresting people, and releasing them hastily, are you taking off your pants to fart, what an unnecessary move!? Also, yesterday you were in such a hurry that you asked Village Chief Wang to investigate the background of the three Taoist priests. Why is that?"

"Hehe, it's all routine, don't make wild guesses."

"Routine, I don't think so! I'm not just guessing, you must have other ideas in your heart!"

"It seems to be true, how can you tell?"

"From the weird eyes you look at those three people. You can fool others, but you can't fool me, Principal Wolf."

"Hehehe, it really is that the tiger father has no dogs and sons! It's amazing!" Liao Mu looked at Lang Mo and smiled after being stunned for a long time.

"I don't understand what you are talking about." Principal Wolf also laughed.

"If you don't understand, just listen slowly. But I can tell you that those three Taoist priests are really extraordinary. Judging from their skills against the boa constrictor, they are definitely not ordinary people. Last night, I Behind them, you can see clearly. Then think about it, what are such extraordinary people doing in this ravine?"

Principal Wolf shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe it's just a coincidence!"

"Accidentally, if only by chance."

"what do you mean?"

"To tell you the truth, you know why there are so many strange things happening on the mountain behind Fenghua Village, such as giant pythons, white wolves, innocent people missing, etc., but few people outside know what happened here? "

"That's because the higher-ups don't let everyone know, lest some curious guys who are not afraid of death break in and die."

"You're only right. In fact, the government department doesn't want to let the things here leak out. Apart from the reason you said, the most important reason is because..."

"Because of what?" Lang Mo hurriedly asked.

"Because, there is a secret treasure left over from the Tang Dynasty hidden here."

"Treasure? Is there really a treasure in the mountains? Didn't you tell me that you didn't know? Why did you tell me the other way around?" Lang Mo asked with his mouth wide open.
