"Do you know where he is now?"
"I don't know," Yang Guanghuan said. "I'm not even sure if he's dead or alive. I heard that when he escaped from the stockade, he fought with the people in the village and was poisoned."
Xu Xinyuan was silent for a while.
"Are there still people in the stockade who are dissatisfied with the Miaoxi River?"
"There are definitely people," Yang Guanghuan said. "The Miaoxi River seems fair, but it's actually overbearing. There are definitely people who are dissatisfied, but I don't know who they are. After all, I've been away from the stockade for so many years."
After talking for a while, they did not gain anything and returned empty-handed.
Xu Xinyuan was very disappointed, but there was nothing he could do. He was still confused.
He County …
Miao Changhong went to the funeral home again and looked at the bodies of the people. He wanted to figure out how and when they were poisoned. He had succeeded.
"The time of poisoning was about six or seven days before they died," he analyzed. "The way they were poisoned should be through food."
"Six or seven days before they died?" Yang Guanfeng's eyes lit up slightly. This was a very important piece of news.
"Yes, we can check where they lived," Lu Xiufeng said.
The three of them lived in the same village and worked at the same place. It was not particularly difficult to investigate. In the end, they did find something, a very important discovery.
A stranger, a stranger with a hood, appeared at the place where they lived and where they worked at different times. However, no matter which camera they used, they could not see the person's face clearly.
"This person is a major suspect," Yang Guanfeng and Lu Xiufeng said almost at the same time.
In a place where it was not cold, it was abnormal to deliberately cover one's face. Many criminal suspects had the habit of doing so.
"Let's go and see if there are any shops nearby where we can see his face clearly."
"Okay."
They immediately set off and went to the places where the three people were before the incident. They found that the person's face appeared on the camera in a shop, but it was still not clear. They could only see half of his face, which was still a little blurry.
"This person is a veteran!" Yang Guanfeng said.
"Yes, it has a very strong anti-detection ability." Lu Xiufeng lit a cigarette.
"There are usually several possibilities for such a person. One is that he is a habitual criminal who has a very good understanding of the police's criminal investigation methods and has a strong anti-reconnaissance ability. The other possibility is that he has received special training and is familiar with the anti-reconnaissance methods and methods. Of course, we can't rule out that some people are born with this ability, but it is a minority after all."
Although they couldn't see the person's face clearly, they had professionals who could speculate what the person looked like through the blurry half of the person's face that they could observe, and it was highly credible.
At this point, there was finally some progress in the case.
"These two people are really something!" Lu Xiufeng said.
"But I always feel that they are hiding something from us." Yang Guanfeng lit a cigarette.
"That's for sure. They came here with impure intentions. Telling us this is probably the result of discussion and reporting."
In the guest house in He County.
"Do we still need to stay here?" Miao Changhong asked. "We have basically done everything we can. Staying here won't be of much use."
They had said what they could say. Naturally, they couldn't tell outsiders what they couldn't say. They had done everything they could.
"Wait a little longer." Miao Qingfeng said. He had told the clan leader everything that had happened there. He was waiting for news from the clan leader to determine what to do next.
"Alright."
At this time, Yang Guanfeng and the others received another message.
"Come and have a look. There is news from the Valley of Thousands of Medicine again."
"What is it?"
A message, a picture, and a dead person.
"Someone died again?"
The person in the picture died in a horrible way. His face was blue, and there were some disgusting sores on it.
"Well, is it really a dead person?" Lu Xiufeng looked at it carefully.
"Please, don't joke at this time," Yang Guanfeng said.
"Judging from this, it is obvious that he has been dead for more than a day."
"Not necessarily," Yang Guanfeng said. "Don't forget that they are good at using poison." "There should be a big difference between a body that died by poisoning and one that died by other means."
"Ah, one wave after another," Lu Xiufeng said. "Why are there so many things happening? No wonder the fortune-teller said that this year would not be a good one!"
"Hey, you still believe in that!" Yang Guanfeng said with a smile. "We can't do anything about this case," Lu Xiufeng said. "I think even if we knew there was a dead person, we wouldn't be able to find him. All we can do is pay attention."
The Valley of Thousands of Medicine definitely hid many secrets, yet it was so xenophobic. Yang Guanfeng had been there twice and had been poisoned twice. The case had not been solved, and he had almost lost his life. Who knew what kind of accident would happen if he went there again?
"I have a hunch that we will have to go to the Valley of Thousands of Medicine sooner or later," Lu Xiufeng said.
"Why? Do you still miss the wine and food there?"
"To be honest, I really miss it," Lu Xiufeng said. "I really don't want to go there anymore. You have been there twice and been poisoned twice. I went there once and didn't have any accidents. I was really glad after that. I don't know what will happen if I go there again!"
In the Valley of Thousands of Medicine, hundreds of miles away …
"Master."
"How is it?"
"It's still not working."
Miaoxi River sat there after hearing that.
"Well, where is he?"
"He's dead."
"I see," Miaoxi River said. "Stop for a while and take care of things. Clean up the place thoroughly. Don't leave anything behind."
"Yes."
The middle-aged man responded and left. Miaoxi River was the only one left in the room. He sat there quietly.
"It's still not working. What is missing?"
In another city in southern Yunnan, two people were sitting opposite each other in a restaurant. Looking at their faces, they were very tired. It was as if they had just experienced heavy physical labor.
"Do you believe me now?" The voice of the man in the baseball cap was a little hoarse. His face was a somewhat strange blue.
"I believe you. I didn't expect that kind of thing to really exist." The man sitting opposite him complained. His face was slightly pale.
"Did they find us?"
"They should have, but it doesn't matter. We are definitely not the only ones keeping an eye on that place. The last time I was there, I heard gunshots. "
"Blood Orchid." The tall and strong man sighed in a low voice.
"Can this thing really make people live forever?"
"Haven't you read your grandfather's two notes?" The baseball man took a sip of tea.
"I read them, but I haven't finished them yet."
"Ah, it's a pity that the old patriarch's real wealth is all in that notebook, but your family doesn't know how to cherish it. Now it is in the hands of Miaoxi River. I have also read the two notebooks, but I haven't finished them either. The Blood Orchid is one of the six herbal medicines in southern Yunnan. It can make people live longer and relieve various diseases. He has seen and used it before. If it weren't for Miaoxi River, he might still be alive now."
"His death has nothing to do with Miaoxi River," the tall and strong man said.
"Why would I lie to you about this? The old patriarch must have been killed by Miaoxi River."
The tall and strong man was silent after hearing that.
After a while, he asked, "What should we do next?"
"Let's go to the stockade and have a look," the tall and strong man said. "Miaoxi River should use the Blood Orchid for experiments. I have been there several times before and found some clues. However, they noticed it and couldn't investigate further."
"Okay."
It was late at night.
The jungle in southern Yunnan was dense.
Coo, coo, coo. No one knew what animal was calling.
Rustle, rustle, rustle. Two figures shuttled through the jungle.
"Do you smell anything?"
"The smell of a corpse."
"Yes, it should be nearby."
Rustle, rustle. Something was swimming in the grass.
"This is a red-headed centipede, which is raised in the stockade."
"It's a housekeeper."
They came to the place where Yang Guanfeng and Lu Xiufeng had been.
"This is it."
After passing through the jungle, the mountain appeared in front of them.
"There is a cave and a figure," the tall and strong man said.
"Wait here. I'll go and have a look."
"Okay."
The slightly shorter man quietly approached the mountain with his face covered.
There was a cave in the mountain. There were people in the cave.
"We are about to succeed," someone said. "Why don't we persist?"
"The situation outside is too tense," the tall and strong man said. "The two criminal investigation experts who came last time have found this place. We have put down one of them, which is already very risky. If they come again next time, they will definitely come back here. What should we do then? Put down another one?"
