Treasure Hunter Master(also known as Living People Avoidance)

Chapter 22: Chapter 0022 It Follows



After all these things were settled, it was basically past four in the morning, and the sky in the east was already light.

Although Erniu's matter came to an end, the three of us were obviously in a bad mood. We said hello to each other and limped away from here. Before leaving, we just arranged for Erniu's father to bury his daughter properly, otherwise we would not be able to take care of any accidents that happened. That guy was beaten up by me and became very honest. He nodded his head like a chicken eating rice. I guess he would also take good care of Erniu's funeral. After all, he saw what happened last night with his own eyes and was almost scared to death. I guess he now firmly believes that the retribution for good and evil follows like a shadow, and dare not be careless about it.

When we got back to the old village chief's house, he came out to greet us. His eyes were red. He probably hadn't slept all night. He was obviously shocked to see how dirty we were. He asked Zhang Jinya carefully, "Master Zhang, is there any progress?"

Zhang Jinya sighed and shook his head. It was obvious that he was touched by this. We were busy all night and exhausted. I was injured. But at the end, I neglected the biggest problem. It was strange that I could be in a good mood!

Especially the word "rouge" that Erniu said to us at the end, which made us confused. There were too few clues. We couldn't figure out what the thing that peeled people's skin had to do with rouge!

When the old village chief saw Zhang Jinya didn't say anything, he immediately showed a trace of panic on his face. He grabbed Zhang Jinya's hand and said quickly: "Master Zhang, please save Dingtao Village. I will not reduce the labor fee promised to you."

Looking at the old village chief's appearance, he is probably afraid that we will turn around and leave after the setback tonight, and refuse to solve their problems.

In fact, he is simply too suspicious!

Things have developed to this point. Not to mention Zhang Jinya, even I can't let it go, especially after hearing and seeing the tragic experience of Erniu. I want to seek justice for this poor girl from the bottom of my heart. That kind-hearted girl worked hard all her life and suffered hardships, but in the end she was killed by a dirty thing. If there is no explanation for this matter, I doubt whether God still has eyes. Why do good people have no good rewards in the end?

So, before Zhang Jinya spoke, I took the lead in comforting the old village chief: "Grandpa, don't worry. Although we didn't find any clues tonight, we won't give up just like that. We will definitely find some clues in the end if we investigate slowly."

The old village chief's face looked a little better.

Zhang Jinya glanced at me, but didn't say anything. He turned his head and walked towards his house, leaving us only one sentence: "Okay, go back to the house to rest. Xiaotian, you should take care of your own and Heizi's injuries first. We will sleep in the morning and go to Qin Hongmei's house in the afternoon to check if Qin Hongmei left any clues in her house before she died."

Zhang Jinya's arrangement was naturally no problem for me. I said goodbye to the old village chief and took Zhou Jing and Heizi back to where we lived. The only thing to be thankful for is that Uncle Li gave me some Yunnan Baiyao, disinfectant alcohol and some gauze on the way to find Zhang Jinya. I had not used these things since I went to Yujiang County, and I just threw them in my schoolbag. This time, I accidentally brought them all with me. After returning to the house, I remembered this and found these basic medical supplies when I flipped through my backpack.

I first used alcohol to treat the wound on my tongue that I bit last night, and after sprinkling Yunnan Baiyao on it, I treated Heizi's wound. Fortunately, the wounds on both of us were not particularly serious, so there was no problem with such basic treatment. Then I took Heizi to sleep. After all, he was injured, and if he lay on the ground, I was afraid that he would get dirty things on his wounds and cause infection and inflammation. After what happened last night, Heizi was no longer just a powerful mastiff in my eyes, but also my brother and partner.

After all, in this exaggerated society, who else can save you fearlessly except your parents? Unfortunately, my mother died early to give birth to me, and my father also had an accident some time ago. I once thought that I would never experience that kind of human love again. Now God has given Heizi to me, which is probably a kind of compensation, right?

I have made up my mind that even if I have to deal with a vampire like Zhang Jinya, I will take Heizi away in the future, at all costs!

Maybe I was too tired. I slept for seven or eight hours in a daze. When I woke up, it was already past two in the afternoon. Zhang Jinya and Zhou Jing had already gotten up. The three of us took Heizi to eat something in a hurry, and then, led by the old village chief, we went straight to Qin Hongmei's house to explore clues.

Qin Hongmei's home is in the southern end of Dingtao Village. When we arrived here, we almost recognized the location of her home at a glance-because there was only one yard with weeds in front, and it seemed that it had been abandoned for some time.

"It's here."

The old village chief stopped at the door of the yard and sighed: "After the little girl got into trouble, the daughter-in-law of the Qin family became crazy. In order to treat her illness, her husband sold almost everything in the house. Only this house is not very valuable. No one has bought it. After all, it is a place where people died, and the turmoil of that incident has not passed yet. No one wants this piece of land, so it has been idle."

Zhang Jinya and I looked at each other and cleared the way in front without saying a word. The lock of this yard was rusty, so I kicked it open with one foot. After crossing the bluestone path, I went straight into the big house in front.

Suddenly, a strong musty smell hit me.

The fact is just as the old village chief said. Qin Hongmei's father has indeed sold all his things. The living room is empty without even a chair. There is a thick layer of dust on the ground. Obviously, no one has been back to this house for two or three months.

"This house where someone died is unlucky!"

Zhang Jinya fanned his nose and turned to look at the old village chief: "Which room was Qin Hongmei in when she died?"

The old village chief pointed to a bedroom on the left side of the living room.

I went over and pushed the door. With a "creak", the door opened immediately.

The situation in the bedroom was much better than the living room. At least the furniture was there. Although it looked a bit dirty because no one had cleaned it for a long time, there was an enlarged art photo hanging in the middle of the bedroom. The girl in the photo was wearing a white dress and was very beautiful. Even in a city full of beauties, she was definitely a number one beauty. I think the woman in the photo was Qin Hongmei.

The old village chief followed us and explained, "This room was where Qin Hongmei lived. No one in the village dared to take the things she used, for fear of evil spirits. At that time, the Qin family boy was in a hurry to leave, so he didn't sell the things here."

Then the old village chief pointed to the ground near the bed in the room and said, "When the Qin family girl was found, she was lying here. She had been dead for seven or eight hours. When the police came, they found a lot of hair on the bed. After testing, they said that the hair belonged to the Qin family girl. The police inferred that she was dragged to the ground by her hair and then killed. She had a close contact before she died. Struggling, her nails left many marks on the cement floor. It seemed that her face was cut off while she was alive. How pitiful! But for some reason, Qin Hongmei never cried out from beginning to end. In fact, even if she cried for help, she might not have died so miserably! "

After the old village chief said this, we noticed that there were dozens of scratches several millimeters deep on the cement floor beside the bed. Judging from the shape, they should be scratched by nails. It was shocking. Even now, dark red blood can be seen in the scratches. It can be seen how terrible the destruction and torture Qin Hongmei experienced when she died!

Zhang Jinya had gone to the side to search other places. Only I was staring at the scratches on the ground stupidly!

For some reason, looking at these scratches, I felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity in my heart!

Yes, it was familiar!

It seemed that those scratches together looked like some words!!

I am naturally sensitive to these words. Although these scratches seem to be crisscrossed and as if they were made randomly, I think there is some pattern in them. The more I look at them, the stronger this feeling becomes. I couldn't help but let out a soft hum.

This suddenly alarmed Zhang Jinya and the old village chief.

The old village chief muttered, "The city police have come back and forth to check this place for at least ten times, but they have never found anything, so they can only let it go. Did you see something?"

Zhang Jinya also licked his face and came over: "Boy, you really figured it out."

I frowned, stared at the scratches on the ground, and said uncertainly: "These scratches seem to be a few words, which seem to be left intentionally when Qin Hongmei died, but she was in too much pain at the time, so the strokes are messy, which gives people an illusion of being disorganized!"

Zhang Jinya immediately became interested and hurriedly said: "Tell me quickly, what is written on the ground?"

I let out a long breath: "It should be-it followed!"
